Just a few minutes after getting the package, Peter phoned his very close friend Angela, and asked her to come over to see what he had got.

Her birthday was very close, and he wanted to give her a very special present, something he had been trying to get for quite a while. He was barely able to contain his excitement when she knocked at the door that morning.

Upon opening the door, he immediately greeted Angela with a big hug. "How are you today? Did you get here ok?"

She giggled. "It's raining...but I got here just fine, nothing to worry about. So...let's see what you've got...when you phoned me half an hour ago you sounded pretty damm excited" she said, smiling at him.

He just grinned. "When I show you this, you are gonna love me forever!" He giggled as he went into his room to grab the box.

She walked inside and closed the door behind her. She then sat down on the couch, crossing her legs. "I'm waiting..."

He came back in a few moments later, holding a small box in his hands. It was white and decorated with a red ribbon. "I know your birthday is still a few days away, but I'll burst if I have to keep this away from you much longer!" He said, handing her the box

"Awww...this is so sweet" she said, giving him a quick kiss. "I can't wait to see what's inside!"

He smiled. "Well go ahead and open it. I bet you're dying to find out what's inside!"

She smiled at him, and slowly opened the box. She then closed her eyes, and reached for what was inside it. As soon as her hand came in contact with the object inside the box...she quickly pulled her hand away.

"Hey...something just stung me!" she said, shaking her hand.

She looked inside the box. "But I felt...holy..." she said, staring at the object she had just touched.

It was a small, feathery looking Latias plushie. She slowly took it out of the box, feeling the incredibly soft feathers under her hand. It looked exactly like her favourite Pokemon, including the huge adorable eyes, that just made you want to hug the plushie just by looking at them.

In its small stuffed claws it was holding what looked like a rose, and there was a small drip of blood where a thorn had cut her finger.

"That's odd, there wasn't a rose there when I brought it..." Peter said, looking at it with a confused look on his face.

She just smiled at him, and gave him a big hug. "Awww....you did this for me, didn't you? Thank you...thank you so much"

“I saw it and thought that you would love it. It was the only one they had left in, so I was lucky to get it." He said, hugging her back.

When he looked at her arms though, they had what looked like...a red tint to them, and soon enough red feathers were sprouting from her arms and wrists.

"What the..." Peter said, stepping back a little.

She gave him a confused look. "What is it? It looks like you just...wait..." she said as she slowly looked down at her arms, suddenly noticing the feathers growing. She gasped. "What the...what is this?"

"Well, they look like feathers.....but how...." He said, watching them grown down her arms. Her hands turned a deep red in colour as her nails extending into long claws, white pads forming on the back of her hands.

"It couldn't be...". he gulped.

She was starting to get worried. She sat down on the couch, staring at her hands, confused. "Is this...what I think it is?" she asked, looking back at him.

"Well....." His eyes darted back and forth between her changing arms and the plush on the table.

Her clothes were starting to grow a little tighter now as the feathery down growing over her arms began to spread over her body, a pair of nubs forming at her shoulders as her upper chest began to expand

She looked at the plushie. "Really? Is this really..." she tried to say, feeling the feathers on her body.

Her shirt began to tear away as the growing plumage grew too much to be contained. Her breasts had enlarged a little bit, ripping out the front of her clothing as a blue, diamond like mark appeared in between them.

"I...think so.." He said, gulping.

She ran a finger down the triangular shaped mark, smiling. "Yes it is...I'm becoming a Latias, just like the plushie...well...sort of. This is..."

"Well, you're certainly looking a little bit different compared to it" He chuckled as the stubs on her back grew out into a pair of blade like wings, her hips growing a little wider as her chest became slender, patches of white feathers growing around the front of it and on her neck now as the red feathers began to cover her legs.

She stood up and picked up the plushie, her body shaking a little because of the changes. She gasped. "Wait...the rose...it did..."

"What did it do?" Peter asked, her feet tearing out of her shoes as short but sharp claws grew from her toes, pads forming on the underside. All that was left human was her head.

She suddenly grinned her teeth. "The...spines...of the rose..." she managed to say, before feeling the changes reaching an end, in a very invasive and uncomfortable way.

Her face began to elongate, her nose sinking into her upper jaw as it pushed into a short muzzle. Her teeth lengthened into slight fangs as her ears grew outwards into a pair of short, horn like objects. Her eyes were pushed to the side of her head as they grew larger, the blue colour turning a deep yellow as her pupils stretched and pulled into slight slits.

Another marking, this time in the appearance of a triangle, appeared on the space between her eyes, red with a white centre.

She let out a long sigh, falling on her knees. "It's...over?"

Well it certainly looks like it...." Peter said, looking over at the former human, now a slender, anthropomorphic Latias.

She started walking around the room a little, stretching her arms and wings. She giggled. "It feels so nice...I can't believe how good this feels. For a moment I thought things were going to get pretty ugly, but instead...this is...amazing!"

"Not to mention that you LOOK amazing too..." He said with a slight blush. He had loved her a lot as a human, but now she had changed she looked even more beautiful to him.

She moved closer to him. "You really think so?" she asked, running a finger down his chest.

"Have I ever once lied to you?" He said honestly

She giggled. "You never did...you never did" she said, as she hugged him. "You know...the plushie is nice...but this is the real gift, and thank you with all my heart for it...thanks"

He smiled softly and wrapped his arms around her back again, having to hold them a little lower near her middle chest now because of the large jet like wings that had grown from her back.

She gave him a quick feathery kiss. "Say...why don't you try out this experience too? You might enjoy it" she said, smiling at him.

"I'm sure he will turn you into something that match you gender" she giggled. "So...wanna try?"

The rose was still there, laying on the table. Her blood was still dripping from one of the spines. His hand gently reached towards a thorn on the other side of the rose.

No coming back now...

As soon as the small sharp spine pierced through his skin, he felt like an electric shock running through his arm. He jumped backward and landed on the floor, stunned.

"Ack!" He winced, holding up his finger, a drip of blood running down it. "That really smarts.."

He looked at his hands, and gasped in surprise as he noticed the skin turning a shiny blue, eventually growing lots of soft blue feathers. The fingers also elongated, claws emerging from the tips.

"Looks like it's working..." He said with a smile

The feathers spread all over his arms, reaching his chest. As that happened, the muscles in his arms and torso seemed to be slowly swelling, power flowing through them like a river. He flexed them and smiled at his growing body.

"This is turning out better than I thought!" He said with a grin, watching his growing muscles press against his shirt

The feathers growth longer and longer on his chest, eventually tearing his shirt apart. A red triangular mark formed on his muscled chest as it reached its full size. Angela couldn't help but smile.

"So how do I look to you now, despite I've only half changed" he said, stepping closer to her

"You're....pretty" she said, running a hand down his chest. "And soft"

“Maybe soft in appearance" He said with a big grin

His legs were now getting covered by the feathers. As his muscles swelled there as well, his feet growth longer and wider, the toes getting more triangular shaped, two of them fusing together. Also...a small feathery tail emerged from his tailbone.

She giggled. "How cute"

"Why thank you" He smirked.

She smiled and watched as two large feathery wings emerged from his back. They seemed to move on their own for a moment, before finally getting under his control.

He gave them a few test flaps, lifting himself off the ground momentarily before landing back on the ground.

She clapped. “Good...”

Why thank you. You should try yours out soon too!"

She giggled. "Not until I can see your new feathery face my dear"

"Ah yeah..." He smirked, gritting his teeth a little. "Guess we best let that happen first."

It didn't take long for his head to start changing. His face slowly pushed out into a muzzle, his eyes moving to the side of his head, turning red, the pupils pulling into slits.

His ears growth longer and feathery, his hairs turning into feathers as well. His tongue growth long and pointy, his teeth growing sharper. And finally, a white triangular mark appeared on his head, finishing the changes.

He looked over his new form and smiled. "This...is simply...amazing.."

She hugged him tight, smiling. "Awww...soft...muscled...cute..."

He looked at her with a grin. "I think you're the cuter one though" He smiled, placing a kiss on her lips

She blushed a little, and returned the kiss. It was incredible: a dream coming true indeed. And to think that it all happened because of a plushie...it was too good to be real.

"Well...it looks like your birthday present came sooner than expected...and it gave you something even better, something you never thought would happen..." He smiled softly, looking into her large eyes. "What do you wanna do next?"

She smiled. "Well...why don't we...you know...try out these new bodies?"

"In what way, like going for a flight?” He asked.

She gave him a very seductive look, and hugged him again...very tightly. She licked him on the muzzle. "I had something else in mind...say...have you ever had a feathery blanket?"
