Corner Store

    by: Unknown
James decided to start small and picked the corner store. He figured he could get away with quite literally anything with these body jumping powers, but the combination of little security and likely very few people inside meant a very easy robbery. It wouldn't be exactly a haul, but there would certainly be some cash and maybe some other goodies waiting inside.

With that decided, James eagerly moved his meat suit into the store. As he expected, there wasn't a single person inside the store. The sole exception, however, was James' target, as he saw a good-looking 40ish year old woman of Asian descent. She appeared to be the only one working at the store, as she was stacking cans into a fridge.

James glided towards the woman with an evil grin on his face. He then said as he approached his prey, "Excuse me miss?" The woman turned around, looking uncomfortable with this stranger standing just slightly too close to her, but she managed to brush it aside as she said, "Can I help you?" James responded, "Oh, I think you will be very helpful," as James grabbed her shoulder and switched into the woman.

James suddenly found himself facing the college kid, who had a confused look on his face, last remembering that crazy woman who gave him a handjob. James, meanwhile, took advantage of his new position and made his way to the cash register, opening it with ease. In it, there had to be a solid couple hundred bucks in cash- surprising James, but certainly not disappointed. He then scooped a nearby shopping bag and poured the money into it. James also made sure to stuff a few packs of his favorite cigarettes and beers into the bag for his own pleasure. Then, to top it off, James took advantage of the woman's memories, snaking his hand under the counter to find her gun, placing it on top of the rest of his stash. James laughed evilly, as he was thoroughly enjoying this throwback to his old robbery days.

Now with his stash in hand, and little resistance, James walked back over to the college kid, who said to the possessed woman, "Oh God, Miss, my head hurts, where am I?" James smiled, as he handed the bag to the kid and responded, "Sorry for the inconvenience kid, but why you don't take this on the house." The kid took it with confusion, as he said, "Uh, what for? What inconvenience?" James then said, "Well, for being my trojan horse. Plus, I'm gonna need you for a little longer," as he reached out and grabbed his shoulder, jumping back into his body.

Now once again possessing the college kid, James eagerly said to the woman, "Thanks for the help, bitch," as he took his bag and pranced his way out of the store. James knew this power was simply too good to be true. He knew if he could get away with that with almost zero resistance, the sky was the limit for what was next.

The question was, what would James decide on now?
