Alister pov

I guess I should introduce myself, my name is Alister Killian and right at this moment I'm a naga, let me first explain my story. I grew up with a loving family that has said that we are decedents of nagas and lamias, I thought nothing of it since this spell that they told me about was supposed to last forever. Boy were they wrong. Let me start at the beginning of the month when the shifting first started.

One month prior(still Alister pov)

I am walking down the street of a shopping district to see if I can buy a suit for this upcoming event with my friends Anna and Liam, we have been friends since childhood, Anna is a petite girl & somewhat short girl standing at only 5'5"(165 cm). Liam is 5'10"(177.8 cm), I am somewhat tall at 6'3(182.88 cm) but I am nothing like him (author: pay attention to the heights of the friends, they are important). I don't find it hard to believe when he said his family is descendants of centaurs(wink wink). Anna is somewhat normal besides the fact that she's the best swimmer in our college, she said that her family is descendants of merpeople(wink wink), but enough of my friends.

From the corner of my eye, I see my reflection but it's not my human body, it's a more snake-like body, I rub my eyes looking at the mirror again & see that I'm back to normal. I shake my head & continue walking. "What's wrong Alister? You see something?" Anna asks with slight worry in her voice. "Don't worry, I'm fine," I say while still walking. "You sure?". "I'm fine Anna, no need to worry." I get to the suit place looking at some of the styles waving the attendants away signaling that I don't need any help. I look at the different styles I see one that I like calling over an attendant to help with my measurements to see if they do run my size, the good thing is that they do.

After we get our things I say goodbye to my friends and see my snake-like reflection again. I start walking faster to my apartment to ask my parents if this is going on with them as well. When I arrive at my apartment I take out my phone calling my mom first and foremost. She is fairly tall but not taller than me standing at a decent 5'9"(175.26 cm) so she is taller than most women. When I hear her pick up I ask in a hushed tone. "Mom, I have a feeling this spell is wearing off, just today I have seen my reflection be that of a naga twice." My mom's voice sounds serious. "Oh no, I feared this would happen. Listen, whatever you do don't use the letter S, we stretch it out a lot because of the anatomy we have.". "I'll try mom, have a good night.". "You too, honey." When I hang up I sigh. "Well, it looks like I won't be using the letter s when around people."

After a week passes the flashes of me being a naga become slightly more frequent and my friends take notice of my lack of using the letter s as well as my flashes of being a naga. They have also had flashes of being creatures with Anna being a mermaid and Liam being a centaur, looks like we are all creatures. Once the spell wears off we will see each other in our true forms and not with this spell that makes us look human.
