"Oh, why not?" Liz suddenly answered, throwing caution to the wind and decided to share in some of her daughter's child like enthusiasm for discovery, figuring that if the instruction manual said it was safe enough to try, then it was safe enough to try. "It might be fun to be you for a little while."
Tara immediately jumped for joy and let out a loud squeal of excitement, "YAAAAAAY!" wanting to very much see what life was like in her mother's body as well.
Smiling again at her daughter, Liz then looked again at the instruction manual, wanting to make sure they followed everything to the letter. After a quick but thorough read through, she then headed towards the main control panel and instructed Tara to get into the left pod, which she promptly did. Then after making sure that all the buttons and switches were set correctly on the control panel as was shown in the book, Liz stepped into the other pod and said, looking over to her daughter, "Okay, sweetheart, are you ready?"
"Yep, I'm good to go," Tara grinned, her small body filling with anticipation as she crossed her fingers tightly, praying that it would work.
"Here goes nothing then," Liz said, feeling just as nervous and as excited as her daughter clearly was, as she reached over and pressed the big red button beside her.
A matter of seconds later, the machine began to hum, the sound growing impressively louder and louder until it abruptly stopped and a huge flash of blinding white light suddenly shot out from the pods, filling the entire room for a second before quickly vanishing, leaving both mother and daughter breathing heavily in the pods, unsure of what exactly they'd just seen.
Tara was the first to emerge, finding that her vision was slightly blurry from the bright light and that her senses were a little on the peculiar side. The first thing she did notice as they began to return to her, and as she stood up was both a heavy weight pulling at her chest and a few, long strands of dark red hair that had fallen across her eyes; Tara's hair having always been a light strawberry blond color which she tied back in bunches. "Oh wow..." she whispered, grabbing for the hair, discovering her mother's deeper, more mature voice coming from her mouth. "It worked! Oh my God, IT WORKED" she suddenly squealed, gazing first at her much larger, older looking hands, complete with wedding and engagement ring decorating a finger and much longer, prettier looking nails.
Jumping up out of the pod, feeling her much larger, heavier body jiggle and bounce in places she'd never even imagined before, utterly amazed and dumbfounded that the swap had actually happened, Tara's gaze then lowered towards the two large masses of flesh she now had decorating her chest, mostly concealed beneath her mothers pretty flowery blue dress, but with just a hint of their size and shape visible beneath one of the undone buttons. "I've got boobs!" Tara shrieked as her mother's hands grabbed for the two big lumps sticking out from her body, having always imagined what it might be like to have breasts (being only 10 and therefore flat chested), having always admired both her big sister's and her mother's. Now she had a pair of her own and they truly were ginormous, her mother having always been a very busty lady, and Tara was positively overwhelmed by the sensation as she groped at the big, soft and spongy orbs, feeling their immense weight pulling at her body in a way she'd never experienced before.
As all this was happening, Liz too had discovered that she had also changed, being on the opposite side of the machine than she had previously been on, her body feeling a whole lot lighter and smaller, and without those exceptionally heavy weights on her chest that she'd had to carry around for the last twenty odd years. "It worked..." she said, echoing her daughter's sentiments as she sat in the pod patting at her slender frame, hearing Tara's youthful prepubescent voice coming from her mouth, before quickly jolting up out of the pod to see her former self grabbing excitedly at her body, looking absolutely amazed.
"Tara, it worked!" Liz shouted, jumping out of the pod in a manner she was certain she could have never done in her own body, watching as her daughter (now her) turned to see her own former self looking right at her. "We've switched bodies! We've actually switched bodies!"
Both of them then descended into a mass of hysterics as the squealed and danced and leapt about all over the small room for the next several minutes, examining each others bodies and noting all the dramatic differences there in. Tara was obviously hugely happy that she was now bigger and taller and had breasts, as well as a nice curvy womanly figure that was the exact opposite of her skinny little ten year old body. Liz similarly was delighted to be younger and fitter and unburdened by her heavy chest, finding the fact that it was now she who had to look up at her daughter rather amusing, being now over a foot shorter than her former body was.
"This is incredible, I can't believe I'm actually my 10 year old daughter," Liz smiled as she grabbed at Tara's short little bunches, examining her different colored hair.
"It's so cool, mom. I'm a grown up now!" Tara giggled, looking down at her much smaller mother, enjoying the fact that she was taller now (5' 6" instead of her previous 4' 4").
"You certainly are," Liz said, laughing at the sight of her former self towering over her, finding it rather strange to see (as if she was looking into some sort of really weird and crazy mirror), but at the same time rather enjoying the experience. Looking back down at herself for a second, Tara's body which was currently clothed in a cute little pink t-shirt with a white pony on it, a pair of blue shorts and some dirty looking white socks and sneakers, she then wondered what they were supposed to do now that the test had been successful.
Asking Tara this very question, she gave an immediate and decisive reply. "We should totally spend the rest of the day like this!" she beamed, enjoying very much being inside her mother's body and not yet wanting it to end.
"I don't know, sweetheart. Do you think that would be such a good idea?"
"Yeah, it'll be fun. We can even try tricking dad and Daryl and Katy into thinking I'm you and you're me!"
"Hm, that would be fun," Liz admitted considering it for a moment, before quickly coming to her senses, "but I don't think so. We've tested the machine out and it works. We should really swap back now."
This answer didn't go down well with Tara, as she began to plead, "Awww. Please, mom! Please can we spend a bit longer like this! I wanna be a grown up for a while."
"I know you do," she replied, finding the image of her own body pleading with her slightly surreal, "And while I must admit it really is amazing being young again, we really should..."
"But if you like being young, don't you want to experience it for longer?" Tara said, cutting her mother off, "Don't you want to run around and play and forget all about doing grown up things like dishes and cleaning and just have fun?"
This made Liz pause, her young daughter certainly had a point here, she was kind of fed up of being stuck indoors doing nothing but household chores all day, but really having nothing else to do here on the farm to pass the time. Maybe it would be nice to be Tara for a while, to stop worrying about things so much and just enjoy being in the moment. It had been a very, very long time after all since she'd been a little girl, messing around and having fun. Would it be so bad to experience that again, to stay in this body a little while longer? Surely not.
"You know what, you're right," she said, deciding once again to go with her heart rather than her head, having always wanted the to get to know her children better and thinking that there would be no greater chance than this. "It'll be a nice little change of pace for us both. You'll get to experience things as me and I'll get to experience things as you. Then at the end of the day we can switch back."
This made Tara cheer out in celebration,"Yes!"
"There's just one condition," her mother then added, having one final stipulation, "This stays just between you and me. Nobody else can know about the swap or about this machine, okay?"
"Okay," Tara agreed, happy to go along with anything if it meant getting to be her mom for the day.
"Good. Then we'll meet back here tonight after nine. Until then, I'm Tara - your daughter and you're Liz - my mother. Got it?"
"Got it." Tara smiled, unable to contain her enthusiasm as she joyously squeaked, "This is gonna be so much fun!"
