This choice: Oh man, so many words. Let's just skim it! • Go Back... His eyes glazed over trying to read this instruction manual, which was simply titled:
"The Preg-Transferer User's Handbook - A Safe and Practical Guide For Pregnancy Transference and Trouble Shooting - Third Edition Revised"
Brandon skimmed through the novel sized instruction manual a few pages at a time, trying to get the jest of this crazy nonsense.
"Thank you for using The Preg-Transferer. Please ensure that any pregnancy transferred between one party and the next is thourghly agreed to before using said device. Creators of the Preg-Transferer are not held responsible for any child support payments or other force of legal action caused by proper misuse or agreeing contract by person or persons using The Preg-Transferer. If properly used and maintained The Preg-Transferer will be your go to device for all matters maternity and paternity related. Please consult a physician before transferring a pregnancy into a male or female to ensure proper health of new child-bearer and child. The makers of Preg-Transferer do not make paternity clothes, any men who agree to use Preg-Transferer as way to ease the burden of a female agree to - - - "
And it just went on like that for pages.
"This is so freaking boring!" Brandon says skimming the book so more. "Isn't there a way that this thing just tells you how to use it?"
Turning some more pages, he sees a page called "Proper Usage Of The Preg-Transferer" and begins to skim it.
Muttering to himself, he gets the idea that all he needs to do is wear the amulet, point at someone, and think about it, and the person will either have a pregnancy transferred out of them or into them depending on the person's current "state". All pregnancies that are stored in the stone will be perfectly safe and healthy until transferred into a new person.
Once a pregnancy is transferred into a person, the person and persons around will always believe the person to have been pregnant, but reality will not reflect this. If a pregnancy is transferred into a male, a healthy temporary uterus is transferred into the male as well ensuring a happy healthy pregnancy.
If at anytime the user wants to undo a pregnancy, or set everything back the way it supposed to be, all the user has to do is press the giant "X" in the center of the amulet, and all pregnancies revert back to normal.
"What a load of crock" Brandon says reading over the instructions.
There were hundreds of more pages, each dedicated to troubleshooting and what to do in each situation. Brandon threw the book aside, picked up the amulet, looking at it.
"Eh. What the hell. It's not like it's going to work" Brandon said putting it on. As he put it on, he felt a low hum that seemed to rattle the fillings in his teeth.
"Kids! Dinner!" His mother yelled from down stairs.
Not bothering to take off the amulet, he headed downstairs to eat.
His sister Sarah was waiting for him at the table. She was a lot like her mother, long pretty blonde hair, a beautiful face, a killer body (or at least that what her mother kept telling her). Women wanted to be her, and men wanted to get with her.
She sat at the table, typing something out of her tablet computer, as her mother served the bowls of piping hot spaghetti.
"Hey dork, what's up?" His sister said playfully, not actually meaning the name dork behind her words.
"Nothing much." Brandon replied taking his seat.
"Nice necklace. Where'd you get that thing?" His sister asked.
"Garage sale not far from here. Supposedly it has some kind of powers or something." Brandon said.
"The only power that thing has is chasing women away, and good knows you don't need any extra help with that. Hope you kept the receipt." Sarah said with a smile.
"Thanks sis" Brandon said.
"Alright, eat up!" His mother said, putting the last bowls on the table.
As Brandon watched his family move around the kitchen, he got an idea. Why not test this thing out here? It's not like it's going to work, so why not just mess around.
Looking at his mother Ashley, his father Tanner, and his sister Sarah, Brandon decided to use the amulet on.....
