"You're awfully quiet this morning," Carly said to Zoe.
"Huh?" Zoe replied. "Oh, yeah."
Zoe had been deep in thought. On her way to work that morning, she had encountered something she could not explain. She had been stopped at a red light and looked to the side to see a strange looking old woman standing on the side of the road staring at her. Then she heard her voice in her head. "You look like you're in need of some fun," the woman's voice said. "So I shall grant you the ability to swap any traits, be they physical, mental, or otherwise, between people. May this power bring you great enjoyment, but beware the alterations to reality that may come as a result of its use."
And then the woman had just evaporated into thin air, leaving Zoe speechless. Then, Zoe felt an energy rushing through her, she could feel the power within. She knew she could do what the old woman had said. Her eyes went wide when she focused on a couple walking down the sidewalk and their hairstyles swapped. "It works!" Zoe had gasped.
Then the light turned green. Fort the rest of the drive to work, Zoe thought about what happened. All through the beginning of work, she thought about it. When a lull in the clients for the day came about, she knew she needed to try her power out some more. But what to do? she thought.
