I'm fed up with writing these chapters but who knows what I would do if I wasn't? I'd be probably reading. Anyway, here it is.

What if there was something you could change from your past? What would you change? 

Zane thought it'd be a fun idea for everyone to change their personalities with someone else. Like someone, they'd never be like. A similar idea to an alternate universe. 

Reluctantly, the group agreed to the idea, so, starting the next day they would pull out a name from a hat and become that person for a week. Everyone was forced to participate, even if they didn't want to. The Shadow Knights were also reeled in for the challenge. 

The rules specified that they could share their slips, but they couldn't swap or put them up unless they got themselves. If a boy had gotten a girl, they would act as the cross-gendered version of that person. 

Sounds easy, right? No. If anything it was tedious. 

To Travis' delight, Katelyn had gotten Lucinda. Lucinda had gotten Melissa. Melissa had gotten Aaron, and Aaron had gotten Gene. Gene had gotten Aphmau, Aphmau had gotten Nana. Nana had Kim, whereas Kim had Cadenza. Cadenza had Laurance, Laurance had Zenix. Zenix had Becca, as Becca had Katelyn. Remmi had Tatiana, Tatiana had Nicole, Nicole had Sasha and Sasha had Remmi. Garroth had gotten Travis, as Travis was set to impersonate Kasey, Kasey had Dante, and Dante had Vylad. Vylad had gotten Zane and Zane had Garroth. 

(I hope I got everyone)

The next day, they dressed in clothing that the other person would wear. Zane's impersonation of his older brother was almost flawless mid except for his black hair and freckles. There was no bleach around so he could change that. 

Katelyn was forced to wear Lucinda's spare red outfit that Travis almost fell on his face. 

Zenix's impression doubled with Laurance as Zenix was almost too perfect. Zenix knew Becca all too well to recognise the use and portray every one of her actions and habits. Laurance had brief tutoring sessions with Zenix throughout the act and he pulled it off perfectly. 

Becca as Katelyn wasn't at all impressed watching their act. Instead, she used the opportunity that she could for Katelyn and Travis. When she found out that Travis was played by Garroth, she teased two of her friends - without the kissing - but, it was close enough.

Gene and Melissa teamed up as a cross-gendered Aarmau for the week. Zane and Nana had the best time pretending to be Garroth and Kim, portraying a couple of scenes where Garroth was all lovey-dovey with Kim. 

By the end of it, they were a cackling mess.

All in all, there was an ultimate combination of satisfaction as well as lighthearted teasing throughout the entire week. A couple of people like Katelyn and Aaron moped around for almost the entire week because of how much they disliked the person they were to play. 

None of them was an actor, but they managed to create an almost perfect performance. They agreed it was fun to have a chance to change things around, even if it were only for a little bit. Kasey and Remmi made sure to create YouTube videos each day, which reached over a million views.

Swap people on holiday? Check that off the old bucket list.
