Catwoman held the jewel out as it glowed brighter.
Nightwing furrowed his brows. On the surface all she had was an arbitrary museum artifact. But he knew something wasn't right about it. What was causing it to glow like that?
The acrobat attempted to move but his muscles stiffened. He couldn't look away from the light no matter how intense it got. The glow pulsated stronger, the gem vibrating in Selina's hand. The light reached passed Dick's eyes and into his very mind. His soul.
"That's it... Keep looking..."
Selina purred.
A blinding flash erupted from the jewel, dazing both the hero and the thief.
Nightwing and Catwoman collapsed to the marble floor unconscious.

"Wakey, wakey, doll."
Dick's eyes still hurt from the glow. He closed them tightly, irritated by the lightbulb dangling above his head. He squinted, barely able to make out the man speaking to him. Where was he?
The Flying Grayson went to move but he was restricted. Glancing down, he saw he was tied up. But that's not all he saw.
He wore a dark catsuit, one that prominent displayed his curvaceous body. Wait a second.
Curvaceous body?!
"Where am I? What happened?"
Dick snapped, hearing his voice was not his own. His witty tone replaced with a sensual purr. He sounded like...
"Isn't it obvious?"
A hand firmly held his chin. Dick's came back to him and he was shocked by what he saw.
His own face cloaked in a domino mask grinned back at him.
"You're me..?"
Dick muttered.
"Uh huh. And you're me, sweetheart."
Selina emphasized her point by poking one of Dick's breasts. He looked down once more, seeing the bulbous orbs hanging from his chest.
"What?! How?! Why...?"
Dick's face reddened. Selina pulled the cat cowl off of her face. Dick was Catwoman now, after all.
"Isn't it obvious? I used the Jewel of Dolos to switch bodies with you."
"But... what could you possibly have to gain from doing this?"
"Are you serious? I'm wanted in like seventeen states and five countries. This way I'll be able to settle down as Bludhaven's pretty boy. Stop a bank robbery or two and help myself to some change on the side."
Him running around as Nightwing was going to destroy her reputation as a hero.
"You won't get away with this, Dick!"
"Wait what..?"
"Oh, did I forget to mention? The magic is very intense, well, based on what I've read anyway. You'll have a hard time explaining this to anyone."
"As if. All I need to do is tell them that I'm Catwoman!"
Dick frowned. Why couldn't she say she was Nightwing? Was Selina telling the truth?
"Hahah! I think they can already see that."
"Come on, surely you can't be completely onboard with becoming a man?"
"Oh? Beats running from the law, missy. Besides, I don't know if Bruce ever told you, but..."
Selina whispered.
"I swing both ways, doll."
Dick blushed heavily, which caused Selina to giggle.
"Anyways, I'll leave you to it. Cops should be here any second."
Selina opened the door, revealing they were still at the museum. He seriously tied her up in a janitor's closet?
"Good luck in Arkham. The gals in there are really handsy."
"Nightwing" winked and slammed the door shut, leaving Dick all alone.
