Dendaran's Trail Ch. 3 Part 2

Ali followed behind her love, seeing his wings retract closer to his body as he walked down the hall. As the group entered through the doorway that led to the costume store house, Ali began to wonder what creature Dendaran had in mind for her.
The room was larger than Ali thought it would have been, but after seeing all the other magic that had happened today, she wasn't caught as off guard as she might have been. Boxes lined the shelves, each with a different monster's name. As Ali tried to find a vampire's box, Dendaran came from around an aisle and handed her a box. This box did not have a name listed on it, so Ali was still in the dark as to what her new form would be.
"You'll find the changing rooms down that way." The wizard pointed down an aisle as the changing room doors materialized at the end.
"See you later baby." Allen said, as he reverted back into his human form, his clothes also returning to normal.
Ali hugged her humanized boyfriend and walked over to the changing rooms. She looked over to see if Tobi would say anything to her about the change, but he was busy scratching his head with his foot. She rolled her eyes as she entered into the five-by-five room.
The box was larger than a shoe box but felt lighter. Ali made note of the sign on the inside of the door that recommended that she need not worry about changing out of her clothes to put her costume on, but it would be recommended.
Soon she was standing against the wall of the room, her shoes and accessories stacked on one of the shelves on the wall opposite her. Ali was staring at the costume in her hands. The creature was exactly the character that she had drawn moments before coming here. Its face was blank and featureless, except for the muzzle, the hair on the head looked clear, the same as the small layer of fur that covered the entire body. Even the clothes on the costume were the same as her drawing; the scythe was separate in the box from the costume.
Ali smiled as she held the costume at eye level. The chest of the costume began to split. The seam spread across the chest, splitting the arms and also down the legs, forming openings in each of them. The head split open along with the rest of where the seams were, inviting Ali into it.
Turning around, Ali backed into the costume until she felt her back press against the inside of the costume. As soon as her whole body was inside the seams flashed shut, catching Ali off guard. Trying to move her arms, legs, or anything else revealed that the costume held her in a standard standing position with her arms barely off of her sides.
Seconds felt like hours as Ali stood there, waiting for something to happen in the odd silence.
Fire erupted across her body as the first part of the change started. The fur of the costume dug into Ali's pores, melding and replacing her hair. Her fingertips burned as the claws on the costume's paws fused with her fingernails, effectively replacing them.
Ali felt her clothes shifting around her body as the melded with what the costume had as clothes. A slightly revealing top with one side being black and the other white was formed from her tank-top. The black half had its sleeve go down and form a fingerless glove while the white half stopped at her shoulder, a regular fingerless glove being on that hand. A sash was made out of her belt while her pants were morphed into a skirt. A wristband with four spikes came from her bracelets.
Her lower back burned hotter as the costume forced her spine to elongate and fill the fluffy cat tail that came out from her skirt. Ali could feel new flesh and muscle covering the exposed bone that was slowly melded into the costume and the fur infused onto it.
Ali's toes were morphed and melded into the three toes on the front of the costume. Her big toe was sucked into her foot, only to regrow out the back and fill the extra toe on the back of each new paw. Claws dug into her fused toes' nails, melding with them.
Spikes ripped their way from Ali's elbows and along her arms. The spikes that grew from her elbows grew thicker while the rest grew further out and thinner. Her flesh stretched out from her arms and connected the spikes along her arms, forming her new wings.
The muzzle of the costume sunk in slightly, touching Ali's face. It began to pull back into its original position, taking her face with it. Ali's nose fused with her upper jaw, filling up the feline muzzle as her lower jaw extended as well. The fangs of the muzzle pulled at her teeth and soon those too were in the shape of the costume's fangs.
Sensations beyond pain filled Ali's ears as they were shifted to the top of her head. She could feel them reshaping into a more feline shape as they were integrated into the costume as well. Her hair was soon to follow as she felt the same sensation she had felt for the fur, her own shorter hair fusing with the longer hair of the costume. Ali could feel a weird pulling as her hair was pulled back into the short pony tail near the top of her head.
Suddenly everything burned in a new way. Ali's body had been altered to fit the costume, but now the costume was merging with her completely. Testing her arms, Ali found that she had control over her body again.
Ali stepped towards the mirror that was in the changing room and observed her new body. The hair on her head had changed from its previous clear coloration to her own hair color. The fur on the rest of her body had taken a sandy blonde color, similar to a mountain lion's. Her claws that adorned her fingers and toes had a glossy white color to them, and Ali found that she could control each of her toe-claws individually with ease.
A swishing on her skirt reminded Ali of her tail. She looked behind her and saw the fluffy appendage. A quick mental command and Ali found she could control it, but if she left it to its own devices, it would sometimes twitch like a cat's.
Flexing her arms, Ali looked at her new wings. They were attached to her arms and waist like a bat's, but when she had them folded in, they did nothing to hinder her movement. The spikes that came from her elbows could be effectively used as defensive or offensive weapons.
The thought of weapons reminded her of the scythe still in the box. When she lifted the box up, Ali found that only the cable for the scythe was there. Shrugging, Ali attached the cable to her sash and the blade sprouted from the end. Ali made note of the fact that she could control the weapon with her mind, similar to her tail.
It occurred to Ali that while she was in unbelievable pain at times during her change, she hadn't heard herself scream.
"That's because the costumes in a way inhibit your voice until you are finished changing. A little feature I added after having to listen to your boyfriend and Wade's screams." Dendaran's voice could be heard from outside.
"Ali? You all done?" Allen asked through the door.
"I'm all done, Love." Ali stepped out of the door, listening to her voice that had a quality that could only be described as slightly seductive.
"Whoa. Who are you and what did you do with my delightfully-violent friend?" Wade joked with Ali as he saw her new form.
"Shut up, Tobi." Ali and Wade himself said at the same time.
"Knew you would say that." Wade said as he held up the drawing and compared it to Ali. "Nice work, Boss. I like the scythe thing. But, what is she?"
"Well, in a way of saying, Ali is a chimera. In my dimension, the chimeras are a race all their own. It does not matter what creatures make them up, they all exist as one species. Ali is a chimera that combines a lioness, a vampire bat," he nodded at her when he said this, "and a siren, which gives her that melodic voice and brings out her more humanoid form."
"Well I like it." Allen said as he walked over and hugged his girlfriend. "Well, guess the three of us are the first employees of the best job ever."
"Indeed, Allen." Dendaran said as he nodded his head. "Now that the three main people that Wade had imagined for the job have been recruited, I can place my ads on the television and internet." Dendaran walked out of the room and back into his private chambers. "See your selves out when you are ready to leave."
"Hey, guys. Let's get a pic of us in our new bodies and post it one DA and see how many people say 'Nice pic, but it looks fake and edited.'" Wade laughed as he ran out the door. "I got my camera in my car."
Ali and Allen looked at each other and shrugged. Ali usually didn't like pictures, but Wade/Tobi's idea seemed like a fun one. As they began to walk towards the door, they heard Wade roar with what seemed like fear.
They both quickly rushed outside to their friend, both of them remaining in their bestial forms. When they exited the door, they saw the reason for Wade's howl.
"My car…" Wade was on his knees in front of the smoking, smoldering pile of scrap that was his car. "I heard Dendaran release that energy burst, and then something explode, but I didn't know he had hit Karr…" Wade said, stating the 'original' name he had given his car.
"Stop your pouting puppy." Allen said jokingly while he and Ali laughed. "You really think Dendaran did that on purpose? Plus, I'm sure he can easily fix it with a sna…"
As Allen was about to say 'snap,' Karr was instantly fixed and even washed. Wade jumped up and howled with joy. "Come on guys, let's go." He said as he entered his newly repaired vehicle, reverting back to his human form. "Sweet! He even fixed the AC!" Wade shouted from inside Karr.
Ali and Allen just kept laughed as they too reverted; Ali's belongings that she had left in the changing room reappeared with her human form. They entered Karr as well and the group of friends drove off.
Dendaran watched them from his crystal ball. Their image was replaced with one of the new employee. All that was there was a formless shape, meaning not even the ball knew whom…
