Pandora's Box: Part 1

By MisstressChange

Jenny put down the cardboard box she was carrying, its heavy contents straining her already sore back. All evening she had been going back and forth from one end of her mother's attic to its access hatch where her mother waited to receive them. The back and forth trips started as easy as could be expected but after hours of lifting and carrying, even with the proper ergonomic techniques, the stress mounted.

A plume of dust burst out from each side of the box as it made contact with the floor, just like the others. Jenny's mother appeared at the top of the hatch, getting a face full of the stuff. She squinted and waved her hand around her face, trying to clear the swirling particles before her.

"I hope that's the last one," Her mother commented. "I'm starting to get tired." 'Just starting to?' Jenny thought to herself. The woman was sixty-two and she was still outpacing her. She always had been pretty fit, even at her age, she showed almost no signs of slowing down. Jenny had always thought of her as a role model because of this, not to mention her can-do, never-give-up attitude.

"Well, almost the last one," Jenny said, pointing to a large wooden chest shoved to the back of the attic. "I don't think I can move that one. I don't even think both of us could for that matter."

Her mom climbed up the access ladder and brushed the dust off herself. She paused, squinting through her glasses at the chest, barely illuminated by the single incandescent bulb that hung from the ceiling. "Oh yeah, that thing. I believe that belongs to your father. " She walked towards it and Jenny followed. The chest looked very old. Its dark wood was covered in a blanket-like film of dust and cobwebs that had gathered over the years. "I guess I can just have the movers move this one. Looks pretty heavy though, we should probably empty it, or they won't be able to even get this down the hatch."

She grabbed the black iron latch and lifted the lid with both hands, dust falling off and cobwebs being pulled free as she brought it upwards, resting it on the wall behind. They coughed at the new dust cloud that had erupted and both of them tried covering their faces with their shirts while trying to disperse the dust by waving their arms about.

Once the cloud of particulates had somewhat dissipated, the two women leaned on the chest's edge to look down into what they thought would be a chest full of old antiques, only to find it mostly empty. The only item: a strange metal box about one foot in length, one foot in height, and one foot in depth, sitting on top of a silk blanket that lined the bottom. Each side of the box bulged out in the center to a point, like shallow pyramids, giving it a rounded shape while retaining its square form. The bottom of the box seemed to be flat, as it sat still where it lay. The top however had a cylindrical knob sticking out the center. It appeared to be a part of the entire box itself. The entire box appeared to be one whole mass. Neither of them could find any joints or hinges, seams, or latches. It was like it wasn't supposed to open at all.

"This is it?" Jenny asked. She was a little disappointed in the lack of neat trinkets but relieved her back could finally get a break, rather 'than' break.

"I guess so. It used to be your great grandfathers you know, on your father's side, a family heirloom. Your father never really cared for it, he stowed it up here the minute we got home from their place. You were at that summer camp, remember?" Jenny nodded to herself.

"Yeah, I remember. I hated that camp you know." Jenny admitted. Her mother sighed and stared into the chest.

"Yes, I know. But your father insisted, he wanted more time to ourselves during the summer. I tried to reason with him." She let out another, more exasperated sigh. "The man's very stubborn. Just one of the many reasons we're splitting up."

The two of them stood for a moment staring at the strange box in silence before Jenny's mother reached down and picked it up. She held it and tried to wipe off some of the dark grime with her hand before giving up and handing it to Jenny. "Here, take this with you when you go home. I don't want it getting damaged in the move." Jenny reached out to take it from her, expecting it to weigh forty to fifty pounds. However, when she took the box from her mother, she found it weighed very little as if it was made of cardboard. "I mean, you could probably keep it. I bet your father wouldn't even know. You could always give it back if he does. Pretend you forgot to give it back." She suggested playfully, smirking. Jenny chuckled in response.

"We'll see." The two of them started shuffling back towards the hatch. "I'm not sure Marcus would like having this at our place. I'd definitely have to get this grime off. I'll let you know. Ok?" Her mother put her hand on Jenny's arm.

"Sure thing sweetie and thank you so much for the help today."

"Yeah, It's no problem mom, I'm sorry Dad couldn't be here to help, and I'm sorry you have to go through all this. He can be such a bastard" Her words shot daggers as she mentioned her father and how he had practically forced her and her to pack the rest of the house while he went on a business trip.

"Don't you worry, you know your father. He's always been a busy man. And don't you worry about me either. I'll be just fine." She gave her a wink. "Best get heading now. Don't want to get home to Marcus late you know?"

"Yes, Mom." Jenny conceded.

The two of them headed downstairs to the front room. They said their final goodbyes and shared hugs. Jenny's mother saw her out, closing the door behind her. Jenny got in her car and started back to her apartment across town.

The door to Jenny's apartment clicked as it unlocked. The door handle turned downward before swinging open, casting the light of the hallway into the dark apartment along with Jenny's silhouette. Jenny flicked on the light switch and walked in, closing the door behind him. The familiar smell of the fairly new apartment washed over her. She and Marcus had only been living there a few months but it had already felt like home, however, it still felt a little under decorated. The eggshell white walls and slate grey carpet made a great canvas for which to add some color but they still felt plain, lacking spirit. Perhaps this strange little box could add some flair to the place, after she cleaned this layer of black crud off of course.

Jenny cradled the metal box in her arm as she dropped her purse on the kitchenette's island counter. She looked the box over as she walked into the living area, setting it down on the glass coffee table. She could hear a strange noise emanating from the box, like a type of resonant ringing. The still silence of the apartment seemed only to embolden it, making it feel louder than it was. If she had known better, she could have sworn it was trying to get into her head.

"Hmm." She hummed while taking some time looking over the box, observing whatever blackish substance layered its outer shell. She headed to the bedroom, intent on grabbing some rubbing alcohol from under the sink in the master bathroom. She also swiped an old rag and a small brush while she was there and hurried back to the living area, planting herself down on the couch. With the box on her lap, she doused the rag and began scrubbing away. To her surprise, the grime was coming off rather easily, revealing the true nature of the metal beneath. A myriad of metallic colors swirled about like the colors of a watered-down oil slick frozen in time, Bronze and brass mingling with silver and gold.

The ringing noise was getting louder than ever, filling the apartment and reverberating against the walls. Usually, Jenny would be worried about disturbing the neighbors with such noise, but she had become too enamored with the beautiful box to care. It was like it was singing to her. Like an angelic choir, serenading her as she worked, lulling her into a hypnotic state. She wiped and scrubbed away, even after the grime had long been cleaned off. Grooves in the flat surfaces of the box revealed ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, covering every side.

Then suddenly, the ringing just stopped, snapping Jenny out of her trance. She looked down at the now immaculate, spotless metal box that lay in her lap. She looked around the room, trying to remember what she had been doing. Cleaning the box...right, of course. Did she clean it? One second it was dirty and now...it was spotless. She lifted it in front of her face and turned it around in her hands, inspecting the hieroglyphic symbols. Had she really cleaned it this well and not remembered a thing?

As she looked over the box there was one part that kept drawing her attention; the cylindrical knob sticking out of the top, the pinnacle of the box. She ran her hand over the side, all the way up to the top, taking in the smooth texture. Something deep inside was telling her to grab the knob at the top, like it was what she was supposed to do. She clutched at the cylinder, trying to turn it one way or the other. When that didn't work she pushed down on it, hoping it would do something, but nothing came of it. Disappointed and somewhat frustrated, she placed the box back down on the table. She slumped back in her seat staring at the box. Why had the ringing suddenly stopped? Where did it come from? The box? It must have. She didn't understand, she missed the ringing, it made her feel so warm, it made the room feel so full and life-like. Now it felt empty, cold, and stale. Then there came a *click* from the box.

Her eyes immediately snapped to the top of it, where the knob appeared to be turning, all the while making a jumbled clicking noise. Jenny hunched forward in her seat, resting her elbows on her thighs. The knob continued to spin slowly, clicking away. Jenny's body tensed up instinctively for but a moment when the knob suddenly let out another loud *click!* and five holes of varying size appeared in the top. She leaned forward, hovering over the box to get a better look at the new slots. They were laid out in a strange pattern around the knobs flat upper surface.

"Hmm" Jenny took her hand and made a claw-like gesture, pointing her fingers down, trying to line each hole with a finger. She slipped her thumb in the largest one, and, to her amusement the rest of her fingers slid into the other holes too.

When her fingers touched the shallow bottoms of the holes, she pushed down further to find they gave way. The bottom of each slot dropping further, another inch, faintly clicking under her fingertips. With her five digits sunken into the knob, she started turning her hand, finding the knob turned with it. It emitted rapid clicks like she was winding up a clock. She had only turned it a quarter of the way when it locked in place with one final *click*. Removing her fingers from the slots, she turned the box in her hands, trying to determine what else there was to it when it started to vibrate violently.

Startled, she tossed the thing next to her onto the couch. She could feel the vibrations through the cushions. Standing up in a curious panic, she bolted behind the armrest at her side of the couch and crouched down, trying to find some cover while still observing it. One by one, the hieroglyphs began glowing a golden yellow; hearing the ringing noise as it returned. She could do nothing but stare at the object as it became possessed, taking on a life of its own. The ringing grew louder as each hieroglyph lit up; it was vibrating so much Jenny was sure it'd vibrate itself right off the couch.

The warm feeling was returning as the ringing filled the apartment and as the glowing glyphs filled her vision. She couldn't look away from the glowing box in front of her, hypnotized by its beautiful ring, like angels singing sweet symphonies, the brilliant shine of the glyphs lighting her vision, presenting her with colors she could barely comprehend. Her legs were weak as she crouched from behind the end of the couch, no longer afraid of what was happening.

Her heart was racing and her breathing became heavy; her pupils had fully dilated and her vision tunneled as she gave all of her attention, no, devotion to the object in front of her. She was so enamored with it, she didn't even question when it began to levitate, spinning upright from its side, stopping at eye level, then spinning in place, round and round, faster and faster. The light emanating from the glyphs seemed to pulsate as it spun, the frequency of the ringing pulsating along with the light. Jenny was practically panting; her eyes were tearing up from being open so long without a single blink.

One of her hands absentmindedly snaked down to her jeans, undoing them and sliding over her now moist panties, rubbing away at her sex in an attempt to relive the building ache of arousal. Her other hand went for her breasts, messaging them, tracing around her areola, and pinching her nipples over her shirt. A mixed look of confusion and pleasure masked her teary-eyed face as she continued to stare unblinkingly at the spinning box, which was now spinning so fast and glowing so bright it resembled a miniature sun rather than a box.

Jenny let out a throaty "hah" of pure arousal as she crouched there, playing with herself, unaware and uncaring of her situation. The ringing finally reached its crescendo, the frequency becoming too high for her to hear, before a blinding light filled the apartment, consuming everything. Jenny ripped her hands from their erotic tasks to cover her eyes and face from the levels of light that could rival a nuclear blast. She couldn't see or hear for shit but she could feel a strong gust of wind blow over her, sending her dark hair flying wildly behind her. The gusts grew stronger and stronger until Jenny couldn't hold any longer. Bracing her arms and turning away from the wind, she fell over.

Jenny lifted herself off the carpeted floor, sitting cross-legged, completely discombobulated. She could feel the strange, miraculous wind dying down the second she hit the floor. She couldn't see a thing, nor could she hear, it was like she had been hit by one of those things from those shooter games Mark always played. Those things the SWAT guys used. Flashbang grenades, that's what they were called.

She rubbed her eyes, trying to regain her sight. The ringing in her ears was reminiscent of the ringing from the box, but now it was painful, almost mocking her, as if she had just left a loud rock concert. What had happened? What had become of the box? How could an inanimate object cause such feelings in her? Her vision started to return; she could make out carpet fibers of the floor and the couch in front of her. The ringing in her ears started to die down as well, becoming a faint buzz. She rubbed her head and sighed. Then, she heard something that made her freeze up completely.

"By the cosmos, how long have I been gone?" A sultry, ethereal voice made its way from the window across the living area. "Such a strange new world you've all built for yourselves hmm? Fireless torches, horseless chariots. You, humans, are smarter than I thought. Still, you couldn't keep me locked away." Jenny, whose senses had almost fully returned, peered out from the end of the couch. What she saw gazing out the window, she could barely fathom.

A seven-foot-tall anthropomorphic sphinx creature was floating in front of the living room window. She was covered in tawny fur like a lion, and a tail with a brown tuff at the end swished back and forth from above her ample ass, which was covered by a white silk loincloth, held in place by fine golden chains that clung to her hips. Eagle-like wings sprouted from her furred back. They must have stretched out over twelve feet from tip to tip and seemed to lift her off the ground by simply being outstretched, like magic. Everything about her seemed magical, it radiated from her. Her fur shimmered with lustrous gold streaks as if she had just bathed in a pool of golden flakes; she had a faint, golden aura that matched this.

Jenny, astonished, could hardly take her eyes away as the sphinx lady just floated in place, gazing out the window. She forced her eyes away to search for the box, scanning the apartment. "Where had it gone?" she thought to herself, unable to locate it. At least the apartment wasn't damaged at all in the ordeal.

Her eyes shot back to the sphinx when she detected the creature moving, her wings swooshing around with her body. Jenny cowered further behind the couch as the creature's front came into view. She had a voluptuous body, slim while still retaining very feminine curves, covered in that lush, golden-flecked, tawny fur. Her breasts looked about the size of D-cups and were covered by a large golden necklace that draped over them. Just like her rear, her lady parts were covered by a matching silk loincloth, hanging from the same fine gold chains that held the back ones up, clinging to her hips.

Her face was that of a lion, her broad muzzle ending in a flat pink nose. Her lower lip stretched from the front back to the base, covered mostly by her feline jowls, her lip looked like she had painted it in the same golden material that speckled her body. Round ears sat atop her head above a second set of ears, giving her four. They twitched with every subtle sound made in the apartment; the fridge motor, the ticking clock on the walls, pipes churning, all heard by those cunning ears. But the one feature that held Jenny's attention was the sphinxes' eyes. They pierced through anything she looked at with bright glowing blue irises, and glowing blue markings ran down her face from those eyes. Jenny found herself drawn into them as they scanned the room. She snapped out of it when those beautiful blue eyes met hers.

"Well hello there, little one." The sphinx said politely. Jenny let out an *eep* and fell backward onto her lower back, hands catching her from falling all the way over.

"Uh...uh...I" Jenny tried and failed to produce a sentence in response.

"Ooh" The sphinx cooed as a doting mother would. "There's no need to worry my dear." Her words were as sweet as honey. She floated towards Jenny, bending her legs to fit over the furniture. Jenny pushed herself back, her bottom rubbing across the carpet in a bid to distance herself from the unknown creature bearing down on her. She had made it halfway to the kitchenette when, in her panic, one of her hands slipped, landing her on her back. She pushed herself back up, only to be met by the sphinx, who now stood over her, no longer floating. Her wings were folded behind her back and her arm was outstretched with an open paw-like hand, offering it to her.

Jenny could only look back and forth between the open hand-paw and those piercing blue glowing eyes. She was both confused and frightened, and her face showed it. The sphinxes face, meanwhile, was one of amusement, with a hint of pity. She spoke to Jenny once more; the silky words flowing from her made Jenny feel strange.

"Do you not wish to be helped up? Do I frighten you?" Jenny nodded hastily in response. "Why so? Were you not the one who freed me from that prison?" Her arm retracted from the woman and rested on her hip. Jenny tried to respond to her as best she could.

"Pr-prison? Y-you mean the box?" The sphinx humbly smiled at Jenny.

"Yes, my sweet, little one." She looked away from Jenny, her expression turning sour, her hands clenching into frustrated fists. "That infernal box." Her voice spat. She looked back to Jenny, eyebrow raised, awaiting an answer.

"Uh, yeah. I mean, I think so." Jenny paused before taking the opportunity to ask a question she had since laying eyes on the sphinx. "Who are you?!" She paused again, voice catching in her throat. "What are you?!" Her breathing quickened, she couldn't believe what was happening. Was she losing it? Was she really talking to a 7 foot tall, winged lion lady from a box her mom gave her only an hour ago? She snapped back to it when the creature before her when the Sphinx answered her with that sweet, ethereal voice.

"I'm the goddess of change, transformation, and renewal of course, and I'm a sphinx if you'd like to know, or at least that's the form I choose, do you like it? I choose to take this form because it suits my regality, my magnificence. Wouldn't you agree little one?"

Jenny nodded with as much enthusiasm as she could muster, afraid of what might happen if she displeased this being. "Yes..yes, it's very...magnificent." Her expression shifted to a more concerned look. "Please don't eat me." The goddess; as she claimed to be; let out a soft chuckle, closing her eyes and tilting her head momentarily to do so. It had a slight mocking inflection to it and Jenny wondered if she should still be worried or not.

"I'm not going to eat you, little one. As a matter of fact, I don't have to eat at all. You'll find that out soon enough." She placed both her hands on her hips before speaking again. "Now, were you the one who liberated me from that box or not? I assume you are you're the only one in this...room?" Jenny decided it would be best to just play along. If she agreed, perhaps this goddess would leave her be.

"Yes, it was me. I cleaned it off and it started ringing. Then some holes opened in the top and I-"

"Alright, alright, I believe you." The Sphinx spoke over Jenny, silencing the nervous woman. She had heard all that she needed to hear. "That was me, 'ringing' out. You see, when I was trapped in that box I bonded with it, became one with it. I suppose that's how the magic used by those foolish humans who tricked me so long ago worked, but they're long gone now, and I am free once again." She began to walk around the apartment, observing all the strange objects displayed about, every single one completely new to her. "I thank you for your kind work little one and I appreciate the attentiveness of your cleaning skills, it felt amazing for a being trapped in, and as, a metal box. I can see you apply the same skills to your domicile." She slid a padded finger across the top of the LCD TV that sat across the living area from the couches, checking for dust. There was none.

"Thanks...and, you're welcome?" Jenny replied feeling oddly flattered.

The goddess sphinx admired her reflection in the black screen of the TV before sliding a finger down the glossy surface, claw retracted, permanently leaving a long scratch. Normally Jenny would be angry with the careless damage to her property, but it was a lot harder when the perpetrator was 7 feet tall and could easily destroy her with her sharp claws and teeth. The sphinx started towards the kitchenette and Jenny, still on the floor, watched her move about the apartment in awe.

"To show you my gratitude for ending my captivity, I will bestow unto you, a portion of my power. You will be my avatar, and together, you and I will change the world." A devilish smile crept across her face as she told the woman of her soon to be fate, all the while poking and prodding at the appliances neatly organized around the kitchenette.

"Your avatar? Change the world? W-what do mean?" Jenny stood up now, her hands fidgeting with one another in front of her waist nervously. The sphinx; currently pushing each button on the microwave; answered her without pulling away from her curious exploration.

"I'm going to finish what I started millennia ago. I'm going to elevate all of humanity to a greater, bestial form, and you will be at my side, as my avatar. Think of it as being my second in command. I am a goddess and you will be a demigod, my demigod, taking on part of my powers and form like myself. Together, humanity will be reborn and we shall rule all!" At that moment she happened to press the start button on the microwave. The sudden humming of the appliance and light within startled and disgusted the sphinx, her lips curled back in anger.

Jenny thought it somewhat amusing to see such a being frightened by a microwave. However, this feeling changed immediately when the sphinx stretched her arm out at the appliance, using whatever powers she had to levitate the microwave. She clenched her hand-paw into a fist and the microwave effortlessly crumpled into a ball of metal, glass, and plastic. Sparks spat from the crumpled ball before it was released from her grasp, landing back down to the countertop.

The sphinx turned to Jenny from the kitchenette. "I apologize for destroying your trinket; that is no way for a guest to behave in one's home. After being entombed in that prison for so long, I seem to have developed some animosity towards metal boxes." She chuckled playfully and Jenny chuckled along nervously, more than ever not wanting to upset the sphinx-goddess. The sphinx placed a hand-paw on the island counter, leaning on it while one of her furry legs wrapped around the other.

"I can sense the fear in you, little one. I told you not to be afraid of me, I won't hurt you. You are the last human I would want to harm. Any human I would want to harm is long dead by now I suppose." Jenny took this opportunity to speak up. If she was telling the truth, she should be able to object to some of the things the sphinx-goddess was proposing. She held herself in a more confident light and no longer fidgeted her hands.

"Why do you want to 'change' everyone? What do you mean by change?" At the question, the sphinx stood up straight again and slowly sauntered over to Jenny, hips swaying enticingly.

"'We' will change everyone into forms that reflect my bestial nature, and the bestial nature of mankind itself, better forms for their new lives worshiping me. As for why, well, I will reveal that at a later time, I think now is the time to get used to your new position as my avatar." Jenny's face narrowed and her eyebrows furrowed at this explanation.

"But what if I don't want to be your avatar, what if I don't want to change, I like who I am and my husband and I have a life together. I don't want to give that up." Her voice was sharp with building anger. Who was this Lion lady to just come into her apartment and proclaim such things? It was her life and she would live it the way she saw fit. "I don't want to be your avatar!" Jenny was suspired at the assertion she had just displayed in the face of this clearly powerful being. The sphinx, however, did not. She merely stepped around Jenny, circling her, looking her over in an alluring way.

"Yes you do, you just don't know it yet my dear." She was giving Jenny a smug yet lustful look and Jenny did not know how to respond. Jenny felt dominated by her mere gaze but in an oddly good way. She blushed, the fire within her quickly dying. "You and your husband will live new lives together. He will serve you in his new form." She reached out, caressing Jenny's cheek with her hand-paw. "And you...will serve no one, but me." Her voice was like ethereal velvet.

Jenny was getting flustered, the fiery anger now replaced by a warming glow. The same warming glow she got from the box. "Be my avatar and you shall experience pleasure unending, you and every other changed human. The world will be your plaything." She was leaning into Jenny's ear now, speaking sensually soft to her. "What do you say, Jenny? I can show you if you'd like, just a sample if you will?" Jenny was biting her lip. How did she know her name? "Give it a try sweetie." Jenny still resisted.

"I...I don't think..." she protested. But it was clear that her defenses were quickly crumbling. She closed her eyes and put her hand on the hand-paw stroking her cheek, pushing her face into the strangely textured pads and warm fur of the sphinx, sighing gently. The goddess purred.

"I'll tell you what. Let me show you a small fraction of what it's like to be my avatar. If you don't like it, I'll leave you be. Both you and your husband, forever." Jenny thought for a moment. Surely it wouldn't be that bad, she could handle it. Then the sphinx would leave, she'd be someone else's problem, right? Her eyes opened and searched the room nervously, trying to come up with any other answer or excuse other than:

"Ok." She said reluctantly. "I'll give it a try. Then you'll promise to leave right?" Her voice sounded mousey and meek. She felt as if she had already accepted the goddess's original request in full. She felt like she had given up already and the thought that she could say 'no' to the goddess after this test was merely a futile one, only there to help her feel somewhat in control.

"Of course, my sweet little Jenny." The goddesses purred into her ear, removing her hand-paw from the girl's face. Jenny leaned into the furry, padded hand as it moved away from her. Her eyes opened when she started to tip over. She stumbled sideways a little and found herself suddenly in the full embrace of the sphinx. The towering goddess easily caught Jenny. Her powerful furry arms held hers and her ample bosom cushioned her head.

"My my, it looks like sweet little Jenny is a tad eager. Sure you don't want to skip to where I make you mine?" Her ethereal voice flowed like honey down Jenny's ears. Jenny began to rub her body up against the sphinx's, her face nuzzling the thick patch of fur above her breasts. The gold strips that made up most of the amulet that covered her chest splayed up where jenny's head and body made contact. "Yes my sweet, give in. Soon we will be together, the world will be ours. Once you take on your new form, I will teach you how to change others. We'll practice on your husband Marcus."

Jenny snapped out of it immediately. The mention of her husband and by name brought her back to reality. She pushed away from the sphinx, taking a few steps back, trying to grab her bearings. She reasserted herself before answering the goddess.

"No, show me first then you leave. Leave me 'and' my husband, for good." It was all the resistance she could muster. She needed this being to leave and soon, she didn't care where she went or what she did. She just needed her to be gone, forever, and before Mark got home. She would already have to explain the scratch in the TV, not to mention the destroyed microwave. "Please, just get it over with." She was looking down at the floor now, her momentary fierceness smoldering.

"As you wish, my dear." The sphinx responded in a stern yet playful tone and took back the few steps Jenny had gotten away from her. Jenny looked up slowly at the tall beast-like creature before her. Her height and posture in comparison made her look so small and helpless. Her eyes met the glowing irises of the sphinx. She could feel her heart beating faster, unsure of what to expect next. Those domineering blue eyes stared into her soul, reading her deepest desires and her darkest fears, she could tell, she could feel it.

"Are you ready, little one?" Jenny's heart beat even faster, her curiosity and fear coalescing within her. She swallowed hard and nodded, having no idea what to expect.

"Just get through this Jenny and everything can go back to normal" She kept repeating in her head. The sphinx raised her right hand in front of Jenny's face.

"Be calm little one. Now, this will be quite the shock to your mind and spirit, but, you will never know a greater pleasure." The palm of her hand-paw suddenly glowed with bright white light and Jenny winced at the sudden brightness. Jenny's heart raced, sweat droplets were starting to bead on her face, and her breathing became rapid. The glowing palm pressed forward and jenny closed her eyes tight and lowered her head slightly, blindly anticipating the unknown. The glowing palm made contact with Jenny's forehead, furry fingers reaching up to her scalp to the top of her head. Jenny's world went white.

The moment that palm touched Jenny's head, the world fell away. She opened her eyes in surprise to see where she was but all that surrounded her was an infinite whiteness. She felt an immediate and exponential rise in every positive emotion and a meteoric decline in every negative emotion. Her fear, anger, frustration, and sorrows all diminished, being replaced by joy, adoration, lust, and fulfillment. She was becoming extremely aware of the presence of her clothes. She could feel every fiber of cloth and denim touching her skin, each fiber a caress of her nerves, exciting her body more and more. Her eyes grew wide. It felt like the endless light around her was flowing straight into her, filling her with intense and building warmth.

Jenny was panting. Before long the building pleasure of the warmth around her and the sensual touch of her clothes brought her to her knees. She held her hands out to support her as her upper body fell forward as well. The feeling of the fibers of her clothes moving across her skin felt like a fire of arousal burning across her skin. She called out in a loud moan as her skin felt like one all-encompassing erogenous zone being enticed by the fabrics rubbing across it. She moaned steadily now, all the positive emotions in her mind and ecstatic feelings on her skin ramping up. She could feel her nipples and pussy in particular, her bra and panties rubbing unbearably against her most sensitive areas, made more sensitive than should realistically be. She moaned even louder now, almost screaming, her mind rapidly becoming overwhelmed.

Whatever plane of reality had been supporting her on her hands and knees just vanished. Leaving her to float aimlessly, writhing in pleasure. The infinite white that surrounded her became pitch black. One by one, specks of light emerged all around her, filling the void. They were stars, hundreds of them, twinkling into view, then thousands, millions now. The stars began amalgamating into galaxies, hundreds, no, thousands, no, millions of them, swirling around her while she floated in writhing ecstasy. As if the hyper-sensitized feeling of her clothes weren't enough, Jenny could feel the energy of all those millions of galaxies begin to pour into her. She could feel the power of the universe bleed into her and all of the sensations she had been feeling magnified by an indeterminable amount.

Jenny's moaning peaked as a continuous planet splitting scream of bliss, only interrupted ragged deep breaths for air. She felt like her body was going to melt, the white-hot pleasures of the universe surging through her was unbearable, in all the right ways. The galaxies around her started moving, or rather, she was moving. She was being propelled past them by some unknown force and as she moved faster and faster, so did the galaxies around her. The faster she moved, the more the ecstatic feeling that overwhelmed her grew. It pulsated within her, pushing her to her threshold, all the while her frantic screams of pleasure reaching impossible levels of sound, echoing throughout the universe.

The threshold was broken. She was going so fast now the stars and galaxies around her melded into a mixture of bright and colorful light. The sensations flowing into her became too much to bear any longer, even at these unfathomable levels. Her voice caught in her throat momentarily, then unleashed as a scream that could only be described as other-dimensional. She came, harder than she could ever reasonably imagine.

She could feel herself becoming one with the universe around her as she came, the colors around her intensifying. To say her mind and body were overwhelmed would be an understatement. Where she would normally reach her peak and come down, the pleasure just kept on building to no end in sight. She could feel it rewiring her brain, all the neurons and electrical signals being warped by the extra-dimensional sensation.

It just kept going too. Through the unending nuclear reaction of climax that Jenny was experiencing, she could still tell the regular flow of time. She could have sworn she had been there climaxing for hours, she could feel it. She could feel as the hours turned to days. How long would this last? She would never know and she hopped it would last forever. Her mind and body had surrendered to eternal bliss. She felt as the days became weeks, the weeks became months, becoming years, decades, and eventually millennia.

Jenny was one with everything, the thousands of years she spent in uninterrupted nirvana made her feel more and more whole. She felt loved and desired, cared for, and coddled. She felt warm and sanctified. It was perfect and she never wanted to leave, to leave would be cold and empty. To leave would be severance and death. Jenny was fully prepared to spend all of eternity flowing through the multi-colored vortex of ecstasy. She forgot her past life and her past self; this is who she was now. This was who Jenny was now.

That's when Jenny found herself on her hands and knees; on the carpeted floor of the apartment, she had seemingly left millennia ago.

The sphinx-goddess lifted her hand-paw from Jenny's head, leaving a glowing golden spot where it had covered. This spot dissipated into the girl's head and her eyes began to glow the same golden glow her forehead had. The human woman let in a big gasp before falling silent, her mouth still agape. The goddess took a few steps back, waiting for the life-changing journey the girl was now embarked upon to conclude.

The only sound that Jenny made was a type of choking noise like she was struggling for air, although the goddess knew she was fine, far greater than fine for sure. At least until she awoke. Jenny slowly fell to her knees, then her hands. Her head hung down between her shoulders as the labored gasping noise continued. The goddess stood above her, her left hand-paw rested on her ample hip, the other curled up as she examined her now extended claws, like a woman might check her nails.

Jenny's head turned upward from its hanging position and her struggling gasps turned to jagged moans. The goddess chuckled to herself, taking amusement in the extreme sensations Jenny was experiencing. Jenny's body was rocking lightly in her current stance, almost like she was trying to back up against an imaginary lover, giving it to her from behind. This went on for about a minute before Jenny came back to reality.

Jenny's hoarse moans became choked breaths, she hadn't breathed during the entire ordeal and her body was spent, even though she had barely moved. Jenny had come to as much as she could after experiencing such existentially mind-bending sensations. For a moment she wondered where she was. To her, she had been gone for as long as human history itself, now she was back, back in this joyless apartment, torn from the enrapturing womb of space-time she had given so much of herself to.

She felt empty and cold, weak and scared. She was merely a husk of her former self, even less than that. She slowly remembered her life here on earth and who she was, yet, every experience in her life put together could not even begin to compare to what she had felt in those cosmos. Nothing ever would either, nothing she could ever do; even all the wealth in the world could not bring her the pleasure she felt for all those millennia. She felt wholly incomplete in every way.

She started shaking as she looked up at the goddess sphinx that stood above her. The sphinx looked down at her with a look of amusement, a malevolent smirk across her lion face. That unfathomable state of existence, it was all part of her plan to get her way, wasn't it? The goddess had no plan on leaving, she could do whatever she wanted and the only reason she made that deal with Jenny was to get the satisfaction of completely dominating her, to show her how foolish she was for turning down such wonder.

Jenny still shook weakly. She bent her head down to get a good look at herself. She was sweating profusely, and on observing her lower body she could see a saturated wet patch around the crotch of her jeans that ran down her thighs to her knees and then into the carpet, forming a wet, sticky patch. She had no idea she could become so aroused, but she knew nothing in this world could ever give her the sense of ecstasy she felt...wherever she had gone. Tears formed in her eyes and she started to weep. The tears ran down her face to the tip of her nose, falling and landing on the white carpet in sad, wet specks. The goddess-sphinx kneeled in front of the sobbing girl, bringing her paw-like hands to the girl's chin, tilting her sopping red face up to meet her own.

"It's alright my dear, don't be sad." Her voice was like a candle in the darkness, guiding her; it was as doting and honeyed as ever, like a mother consoling her daughter after a harsh breakup. "You can return there, to that place, yes you can. Would you like that?" Jenny silently nodded her head, face wet with tears.

"Please, Please, I want back." She begged in agreement. The sphinx stood up straight once again, towering over the meek and needy Jenny.

"Then say it." Her voice was stern now, wanting one and one thing only from Jenny; total submission. "Tell me you'll be my avatar, my second-hand sphinx." Jenny had no choice, she couldn't live in this world like this anymore, she needed more, and she would do anything now.

"Yes, I'll be your avatar. Anything you want, I am yours." A wicked and toothy grin spread across the sphinx's leonine face, knowing she had her completely and utterly in her grasp.

"Do you accept me as your mistress and goddess for all eternity?" her voice was powerful, crashing over the meek and broken girl.

"Yes, I do." was Jenny's shaky answer.

"That's mistress to you, girl." She paused momentarily. "Say it!" Jenny shrunk away at the aggressive tone.

"Yes...mistress...I am yours, for all eternity." Jenny was embarrassed that she had let it come to this; that she had let the sphinx win over her so easily. But there was no turning back now, whatever was to happen would happen.

"Say it again girl, I want to hear it from you again." Jenny lifted herself off the floor to her knees so she could look her new mistress and goddess in the face. This time she was ready to fully accept her fate, desiring the unending feeling of bliss over everything else, her life was forfeit.

Jenny's face was a picture of both deviance and desire; a crazed look of someone pushed to their limit and had surely snapped, no longer the pitiful mess she had been moments before. She smiled at her goddess wantonly and her goddess looked back at her in approval. "Say it." The sphinx said almost whispering the command, awaiting the pure capitulation to follow. Jenny looked the goddess in her glowing blue eyes while speaking to her.

"I am yours, my mistress, and my goddess. Whatever plans you have for me, I will obey. You are my goddess and I am your avatar. I am your willing servant for eternity." Jenny knew what she was doing, she knew she was the sphinxes now and she embraced it. If what she felt before was only a taste...she wanted the whole meal.

"Very good little one, you shall serve me well, and so shall you enjoy your new life...as my new avatar." The sphinx stood over her, looking down at her with a look of gratification. "You will bow to no one but me. Serve no one but me. In our new world, you will be all-powerful and command any and all beneath you. This is what it means to be my avatar, carrying out my will to your liking. You will share a form like mine and all who are changed will kneel before you while they worship me. This is the new order of the world...and you will help me every step of the way."

The entire time Jenny just looked up at her with a perverted stare, accepting everything that came out of the goddesses' mouth, wanting it more and more as she spoke. She wanted the power, the control, and the pleasure. "What do you say, little one?" she asked with a slanted smirk, awaiting the obvious answer.

"Yes, my mistress. Yes, my goddess. I am yours. Please...show me the light and make me yours." She answered through partially clenched teeth and with ragged breath, lifting her arms half-way in an accepting gesture. She almost couldn't take it anymore, she needed it so bad. The sphinx held her hand-paw out again, her palm glowing golden-white once again.

"Good girl. Receive your reward and begin your new existence." She slowly lowered her glowing palm towards Jenny's head.

A manic smile spread across Jenny's face, she whispered "Yes, yes, yes" to herself as the palm got closer to her. The sphinxes hand-paw was only a couple of inches away from her head when Jenny took the initiative and forced her head upward into the glowing palm. Her eyes immediately glowing the same golden-white as the palm touched her forehead. Her world fell away once more.

Jenny found herself floating through the cosmos as she did before, the galaxies and nebulae passing all around her. She could feel herself connecting to the universe like before. All of the cold and empty feelings she had felt back in the apartment were gone, a distant memory. She felt calm, nearly complete.

She felt the energy of the universe begin to flow into her as it had before, and she embraced it like she would a friend she hadn't seen in years. The stars and galaxies picked up their pace much faster this time, the multicolored domain of rushing colors taking over her surroundings so much faster. She could feel everything accelerating, including the intense pleasure she had felt. Everything seemed to be catching up to where it left off before. The building sensation sent her over the edge again, this time instead of screaming in bliss, she let out a deep and satisfied sigh. All negative feelings had been lifted and a tide of euphoria had replaced them.

Just like last time she was suspended in this state for an immensely long time. Days turned quickly to months, months turned to decades and decades turned to millennia. After so long the feeling finally reached as high as it could feasibly go. Her millennia-long sigh ended and she felt her physical form obliterate, her body seeping away into the multicolored nether. The only thing left of jenny was a vibrating essence of pure ecstasy. That's all that would be left of her for eons, as tens of thousands of years passed her by, becoming millions and eventually billions of years. The entire time, her writhing formless essence existed in pure rapture.

Then she could feel the energies of the universe pushing back into her, rather than flowing. It started faintly enough, but gradually over millennia, it became highly condensed. It was like the universe was giving her a thousand great big bear hugs, squeezing a new form into her like the heat and pressure of the earth creating a diamond.

The abstract energies that pushed against her felt like a nebulas gases converging into one mass, bound by extreme gravities, eventually forming the white-hot nuclear reaction of a star; that's what she was becoming now, a star. She would shine brighter than any human ever had in her new form. That's right, she was no longer human, she had ascended into something far greater.

The last thing she felt as her new form took hold was knowledge, an unimaginable amount of knowledge, flooding into her all at once. The knowledge of the universe was flowing into her, adding to the euphoria. Her form felt an especially heavy squeeze from all sides, compacting all of this knowledge and positivity into her new form. Her new self was being molded by the universe at large.

She was made whole again at the very peak of her eon's long climax of unimaginable proportions. The ethereal, cosmic dusts of knowledge and ecstasy had ignited a new star, shining bright and glowing gloriously. Jenny could feel every good feeling begin to dampen, in a good way this time, all of them contained within her instead of dying away. They leveled out to a controllable degree and she could feel the new power within her that this brought.

She knew she had become a most powerful being, more than any human could imagine, and it felt amazing. There was gratitude to be given, thanks to be expressed. She wished to show her mistress and goddess how much she loved her.

The cosmos around her faded away as the white carpet of her former self's apartment returned to her view, as did the new, tawny fur covering her arms and hand-paws. She looked up with a beaming smile at her goddess, who smiled back at her lovingly.

Jenny's eyes glowed golden white and her mouth fell open. The girl gasped and her voice caught in her throat as it did the first time. The goddess took two steps back anticipating the girl to fall forward onto her hands, which, after a moment, she did. The goddess knew this time would be much more intense than the last. Jenny's throaty grunts became long ragged moans, her spirit surely reaching new highs of existence.

As if her rising levels of nirvana were exerting a white-hot fire from within, her clothes burnt away from her, an invisible fire disintegrating every article from her body, throwing every fiber from her being, atom by atom. She was now completely naked, on hands and knees, still moaning as her body started its first changes.

Her bones cracked and popped as her form grew larger, her body lengthening from her five foot ten stature to an impressive Six and a half feet, making her smaller than her mistress, yet, still imposing. The feminine parts of her body were further exemplified, her breasts inflating from B-cups to D-cups and her hips widening to become as voluptuous as the goddesses.

Her feet and legs popped and creaked, reshaping into a more bestial form, her heels moving up her shins, making her legs appear longer in total and forcing her to walk on the balls of her feet. Her toenails darkened, turning skinny and sharp, becoming claws, pulling into her new thick feline toes.

Jenny's hands followed suit, becoming hand-paws just like the goddess's, thin leather pads appearing on both her palms and feet.

Tawny brown fur sprouted from every part of her skin, her face pushing forward into a leonine muzzle, accompanied by a new set of large fangs and a flat, black triangular nose. Her tail was starting to grow now, snaking outwards, reaching four and a half feet in length; the end sprouted a dark brown tuft of fur. Her body shivered and shook suddenly for only a moment as the same golden shimmer the goddess wore was imbued throughout her new pelt.

Her now rounded ears finished their ascent to the top of her head, splitting off on their way up, leaving her with two sets of leonine ears poking through her dark hair, now sprinkled with golden dust. Second, after second, Jenny was representing her mistress more and more. A pressure began at the bottom of her shoulder blades as a set of beautiful new angelic wings exploded from her back, a few gold-flecked feathers falling to the floor.

One last change was made to her powerful body, one Jenny would not expect, but one that would be welcome in her new, pleasure-seeking existence. Her clit began to swell, growing out of her labia, twitching as it lengthened further and further. It moved upwards as it grew, creeping up her hips through her labia, coming free of her vulva altogether, resting just above. A new clitoris grew in place of where her now larger one had been, becoming more sensitive than her last.

Her old clit stopped growing at a mighty eight inches, its outer flesh toughening and matching that of a lion's penis, becoming somewhat spiny. A sheath formed around Jenny's new cock, allowing it to hide inside her when she wasn't hard from her bliss-filled, transformative experience. A fuzzy scrotum grew beneath her cock, quickly filling with new testes the size of tennis balls. With these new additions to her crotch area, Jenny was now a true hermaphrodite, able to experience the best of both sexes.

Hir Leonine lips were drawn back and hir new teeth gritted together, hir moans had become growls. The goddess could tell hir spirit had almost completed its journey and when shi awoke; a new and improved jenny would take hir place as a being of immense power. With all the knowledge needed to control that power.

With a deafening roar, Jenny awakened from hir experience, hir new wings spreading wide. With hir head hung low, shi opened hir eyes to the carpet beneath hir, hir long dark hair bordering hir vision. The goddess stood over her and Jenny tilted her head up to meet the glowing blue eyes of hir new mistress and goddess.

Jenny's beaming smile was all the goddess needed to see to know that the girl was truly her avatar now and that the two of them could begin transforming humanity towards its new destiny.

"Rise my pet, let me look upon you." The goddess commanded to her lesser, the new sphinx rising from hir place on the floor without question, obeying the greater sphinx. The goddess took a pace around her new creation, inspecting Jenny's body, making sure she hadn't gotten rusty during her time spent trapped in her box.

"Very well if I do say so myself." The goddess muttered to herself. "You are perfect in almost every way." Jenny straightened hir back in pride, flourishing hir wings once hir mistress was clear of them.

"Thank you, mistress, it is a privilege to serve you," Shi said, hir new voice carrying the same ethereal quality hir mistress did.

"Of course it is my pet, now, why don't you take a look at your new self?" The goddess turned to her side, gesturing with both her arm and wing to the vanity mirror that hung by the front door. Jenny nodded to hir mistress and spreading hir wings, floated effortlessly across the room to take a gaze at hirself. Shi was amused with the weightless feeling of flying in this strange manner, hir wings barely moving as they lifted her off the floor by some unseen force. All hir life shi had wanted to fly like this, thinking it impossible until tonight, and now, shi could do it at will. The feeling was intoxicating.

Shi let hirself down in front of the mirror. Hir mouth opened agape, unable to contain the joy shi felt seeing her new reflection, hir lips curling into a smile. Shi brought her hand to her face, feeling it and its new features, brushing past hir dark, golden flecked hair that fell to hir upper chest. Shi was glad hir hair had remained intact, a remnant of her former person.

"I'm so gorgeous...just like you mistress." Shi turned her head to look to the goddess, who met her gaze and nodded back.

"Well, I'm far more gorgeous than anyone could hope to be, but you 'are' very close my dear. You take after me after all." Jenny turned hir head back to the mirror, watching hirself as shi felt hir body up, feeling hir gold-flecked fur. That's when hir eyes connected with hir new parts.

"I have...man parts?" Shi asked in a curious tone, running hir hand over hir new balls and sheath.

"Yes, you do. Do not worry though; you still have your original...parts. As my avatar, you will have to perform all the sexual activities that most are unworthy of performing on me. This is one of the ways you will help feed my power, it's only natural you'd be able to perform on either sex, in every way possible." The goddess leaned on the back of Jenny's loveseat while she let her avatar examine hir bits. Jenny turned to face the goddess, knowing now that her sexual preferences had broadened, finding her mistress's feminine form irresistibly alluring.

"Am...I...worthy of you, mistress?" Shi asked softly, hoping to try out hir new appendage, the pink tip budding from its sheath.

"Of course you are." Jenny's four ears perked at this but sunk again as hir mistress finished her sentence. "But," Jenny's disposition changed to disappoint as the goddess continued. "Now is not the time for us to join in coitus. For us to join in sexual congress would expel an incredible amount of energy, and I don't have enough at this time to facilitate such an act since being trapped for so long." Jenny's head tilted in confusion and the goddess gave hir a reassuring smile.

"If I use more energy than I have stored in this form I'll obliterate and have to enter this mortal plane all over again. I barely made it here last time." The goddess let out an exasperated sigh and stretched her hands out over the back of the loveseat. "That's why it's important that we change as many as we can, and feed off of their transformative and sexual energies. If you want to try your new equipment out, why don't we start with your husband? What did you say his name was?"

"Mark!" Jenny exclaimed happily. "He should be home soon! He usually works overtime on Fridays." Shi was excited to meet hir former husband in hir new form, and even more excited to see what form he would be given.

"Yes, Mark. He will be your first transformation, you will be in charge of deciding his new form and getting his new body more...acquainted with yours." Jenny's excited smile turned wicked as shi fantasized about all the things shi could do to change Mark, what lovely forms he could take...or she...yes, she. If Jenny made Mark a girl shi could use her new male parts on...her. Shi giggled mischievously at the thought of making mark a female, showing him how wonderful it felt, in so many ways. Only one thought of uncertainty crept into hir mind.

"Do you think I am ready to transform others, mistress?" She asked.

"Yes, the moment I imbued you with my celestial knowledge, you were ready, as soon as it is time to change your husband, it will all come to you naturally, trust in me." Jenny partially bowed before hir mistress, accepting her counsel. "Now, while we wait for your former husband to arrive, why don't you come over here, get on your knees, and worship me like a good pet?" She pulled the silk loincloth covering her crotch aside to reveal her godly pussy.

Jenny approached hir mistress, taking in the goddess's golden cunt, quite literally, the sphinx's pussy lips looked as if she had painted them with golden paint, and it was magnificent. Jenny got down on hir knees before hir mistress, watching those lower lips part as the goddess parted her legs. Jenny's muzzled face got closer and closer to those golden lips, wetting hir own lips with hir tongue as shi could smell it now. It was like nothing she had ever smelled before, like every one of her favorite foods combined into one godly meal. Both hir pussy and mouth watered as she stuck hir tongue out running it over that golden snatch.

Both of them *mmm*d as that first lick worked its magic. A plethora of flavors dancing over Jenny's tongue and the first feeling of sexual gratification the goddess had had in millennia. Jenny shoved her snout into the greater sphinx's crotch, digging hir tongue in further and sucking her mistress's labia all the while.

"Mmmm, very good my pet, really get in there, it's been sooooo long." She reached down to scratch Jenny's dark hair. The two stayed like that for who knows how long, neither of them checked for the time, they were too busy enjoying each other.

It was a click at the door that broke their trance, the sound of the front door unlocking. Their eight ears perked up as the door handle turned. The goddess watched as the door opened and the man she figured to be Mark walked in, oblivious to the two creatures meters from him as he looked down to kick off his shoes.

"Hey Jen, how was your mother's...place..." He began calling out to the apartment, trailing off as he looked up, finally noticing the two large, winged, leonine women in the middle of his apartment.
