By the time Sarah reached her apartment, her nerves were shot. She knocked anxiously on the door, fidgeting as Tammy's body itched for a cigarette. When John opened the door and saw her—saw Tammy—his eyes widened in confusion.
"Uh, can I help you?" he asked warily, clearly unsettled by the sight of Tammy, who he'd seen in town but never spoken to.
"It’s me," Sarah blurted out, realizing too late how crazy that sounded.
John’s brows furrowed. "What?"
"I know this is weird," Sarah said quickly, "but I’m Sarah. Something… happened. That amulet—it lets you possess people. And Tammy—she took over my body. Now I’m in hers."
John’s face twisted with disbelief. "What kind of joke is this? You’re telling me you’re Sarah?" He looked her up and down, taking in the gaudy outfit, the heavy makeup, and the breasts barely covered. He shook his head, looking ready to close the door.
"Wait!" Sarah grabbed his arm. "You’ve got to believe me. Remember last Christmas, when we got stuck in the snowstorm and had to spend the night in that tiny motel? You told me you loved me for the first time there."
John froze, his eyes widening in shock. "How do you…"
"It’s me," Sarah said softly. "I swear. I need your help. We must get the amulet off and take it far away from Tammy before she can do more harms. I didn’t want to do it alone; in case she manages to take it back. But it should be safer with the two of us, right?"
John hesitated, but something in her voice—Tammy’s voice—made him stop. He reached out cautiously, grabbing the amulet from her hand. The moment he touched it, there was a sudden flicker of light, and Sarah was thrown out of Tammy’s body, stumbling backward. For a brief moment, she felt the dizzying sensation of being nothing, of floating like a ghost, before failing over as her body became solid (and her own) once more.
She gasped, looking down to see her own familiar hands again. Relief washed over her—she was back. But before she could fully process it, she saw Tammy’s body lunge toward John.
"Hey!" Sarah shouted, but it was too late. Tammy, still in her own body but now holding the amulet, grinned wickedly and pressed it against John’s chest. In an instant, John’s eyes glazed over, and his posture shifted as Tammy took control of him.
Tammy—now in John’s body—smirked. "Well, this is new," she said, her voice dripping with amusement. "Feels good to be a man for a change."
Sarah backed away, her heart pounding. "Tammy, stop this! Let him go!"
Tammy-in-John stretched, admiring her new form. "Why would I? This is perfect. I can do whatever I want now." She stepped closer to Sarah, her grin growing more predatory. "And if you don’t want me to ruin your precious boyfriend’s life, you’re going to have to make me an offer."
