Bowie-Ween Begins

Ah yes,  fall...the time of year where the leaves drop from the trees and the weather gets colder with each passing week.  If you haven't guessed,  it's also that one time in the Monster World where monsters and humans get busy preparing their best scare tactics for the big night,  that big night is of course halloween.  Except in the monster world halloween is practically an all-year-round thing because of all the monsters that are running around,  of course i'm a monster as well but not the evil kind of monster.

Here in the monster world,  everyone changes both online and offline. And that includes me. My good friend Connor recently became the newest member of my vampiric clan after he became my latest pet,  he's a Lycanroc you see...a Midnight one and he first met me after finding out about my dreams and my Bowie-sona.  So naturally,  to go with this persona I changed my avatar a few days ago - my usual avatar (Christopher Walken as Brainiac) was now David Bowie,  specifically long haired Bowie since that one resembles my persona the closest.  That doesn't mean I don't love the Walken form of mine anymore,  I love that Walken,  he's my main persona after all but this one is just a newly acquired one that I turn into frequently in visions.  I wouldn't call myself a 'Werecreature' because i'm mostly half vampire but have morphing powers.  

I was on Deviantart a couple of nights after I had altered my avatar...plus,  this way I could practice more and get into character.  I spent many nights listening to David Bowie songs and meditating,  visualizing the visions I had been having.  And now, tonight was the tonight where it was all going to all pay-off,  just as I was about to publish another story when I saw the light of the moon shining through the windows of the apartment,  that is when I heard the voice...the voice echoed and intoned to me,  beckoning me with that familiar tone.

"Now that you have changed your avatar...it is time for you to match it."

"I don't know...this seems a little bit frightening to me."

"Just trust me,  alright.  I am here to guide you through the process.  I'm the voice of your Bowie-sona, just call me David.  I come in peace,  obviously -  and you should listen to me, i've got some advice for you."

"Alright, David... I trust you."

"Good,  now relax.."

Looking through the window,  I began to fall into a trance-like state as David's voice instructed me,  hypnotizing me and conditioning me.  The night in general always called to me but David had that extra strong effect on me,  making me want to give in rather than attempt to fight it.  I had always been ashamed of telling my friends and loved ones that I am a supernatural creature but over the years I had grown to not take people who claim to be hunters of monsters seriously,  people like that aren't real hunters,  they are internet troll tryhards who try too hard to be funny or try to be edgy but are nothing more than posers.   Speaking of posers,  if anyone on Experience Project/Similar Worlds claims to be a monster,  they're not...they don't understand what being a monster is about.  They think that being a monster is this mambo jumbo about sitting around in the shadows and brooding,  it isn't.

But now...I wasn't so ashamed to admit to my allies that I was a monster,  after all this whole city has monsters in it...and i'm only one of them.  I began to fall deeper and deeper into trance,  as I began to listen to his words.  I could sense something happening to my body as changes began to manifest themselves,  my skin was slowly smoothening and paling as my chest and torso stretched to become more lithe.   I didn't mind this though,  this felt nice...as most of these ones often do.

My arms lengthened a little bit as my hands changed in size,  my skin had lost the imperfections it once had as my fingernails lengthened.  Depending on how long it has been since I last groomed myself and had my nails done,  my nails can range from normal length for an average humanoid to akin to pseudo-claws.  In this case,  they looked kind of like claws...which of course is a plus,  having claw-like fingernails or nail extensions that resemble claws always was a dream of mine.  Well that and having fangs,  and having half-vampire traits made that a reality.

I remember when I became hooked on Big Wolf On Campus,  that show was a personal favorite of mine and it still is.  That show shaped me into the horror fan that I am today, and also I knew once I became obsessed with that show that I really wanted to be a monster and have monster powers of my own.  Yeah,  Tommy did have to put up with trying to hide his secret when around Stacy in season 1 and tried to cure himself of his lycanthropy but around season 2 he got used to it.    And hey...his inhuman strength and agility, not to mention the fact he was a good werewolf as opposed to the werewolf who turned him (i.e Mr Dunleavy from the episode 'Hair Today,  Gone Tomorrow') or the syndicate.  Those syndicate guys though,  i'll never hear the phrase 'pizza's here'  the same way ever again because of the syndicate.

Looking at my changing form,  I was really entranced by it...I loved watching myself transform in general because it's empowering and intoxicating,  i'm very addicted to the transformation process as a whole but it soothes me as well.   My legs lengthened as my feet changed a tidge to go with my hands,  my clothing slowly changing in appearance as my stomach slimmed.   I felt supernatural energy jolting through me as my back trimmed down, seeing my clothing change to become an outfit straight out of a music video,  my blue tank top turning a dark purple color as my jeans darkened.

My shoulders lengthened as I felt my hair lengthening and extending, turning from brown to blondish as it grew to shoulder length,  I grew to 5'10 in height as my neckline lengthened, I was now in possession of a very lithe build and I was now roughly around 169lbs.  There was something that was most certainly entrancing about this particular process.   My eyebrows arching as my forehead altered,  my eyes widening and turning from brown to blue...becoming rather hypnotic.   My lips became quite kissable as my nose re-sculpted itself and my cheekbones sharpened,  my teeth also sharpened a bit as my appearance shifted, slowly matching the voice in my head.

My teeth sharpened a little bit as they brightened,  I examined my face...seeing that I very much now was morphing into the spitting image of my icon.  My face now without a doubt took on the likeness of singer David Bowie,  right down to possessing the same enticing blue eyes.   I know some people thought those eyes were too different colors,  but they were both blue...it's just that one eye is darker than the other because it became permanently dilated.   

"Oh yes....I love this.  I look just like you now.  I love this so much.  I feel so vibrant and powerful too.  Like I could put anyone under my spell.  Or... at least I think I can, there's something missing though."

"Hmmm...I know what that is."

I felt a tingling sensation in my throat as my vocal range increased,  my voice deepening and smoothening,  becoming sinister yet sultry as it developed an English accent and it matched my appearance,  becoming the alluring voice of Bowie as I purred a little.  These changes felt good,  I was now the spitting image of my icon both in appearance and in voice,  of course that wasn't all that was happening to me.

My mind slowly shifted as traces of a new personality began to take over,  this personality was dark yet alluring and had a powerful aura that attracted people.   This personality also came with a new set of thoughts and memories,  memories of being a rock icon who entranced the world wth an ever transforming presence and style,   that rock icon was one who used to be called David Robert Jones but then changed his name to Bowie,  and that was who I was becoming....I thought that I had always been like that,  traces of my old self faded into the shadows as David Bowie emerged.  Looking into the mirror I could see I now matched my avatar completely.

"Ah yes...now this turned out well."

"Yes,  I have to agree with you on that."

"Now you look and sound like me offline as well.  So that this persona has the added advantage of being more accurate.   Plus all those lessons you learned have definitely paid off,  wouldn't you say?"

"I'd say so."

"So what do we do now?"



"Let's go and test our new powers out..."

"That sounds like an excellent idea.  Alright,  let's do it!"

And so with that I used my new morphing powers to turn into an owl as if I was Jareth and flew off into the night,  a couple of hours later I arrived in the city and began my first new task and that was to make some more David Bowies,  and I knew just how to do that...by hypnotizing them with my voice.  As for what happened to me later,  I stayed in this form for a while but I don't think that anyone minded...at all.  Then again...who would hate this form?  I certainly don't.

Let's just say  becoming Bowie has a lot of interesting perks to it,  plus it's like my dreams and visions predicted.   Of course while it isn't entirely accurate by any means,  it is spot on with capturing the element I love best from those visions,  the powers and the thrill of being supernatural.   I always had the repulsive need to want to be something more than human, i've always felt very puny as a human and thought to myself 'f*** that! I want to be a superhuman'.   I don't exactly know where i'll be going from now,  but I promise that it won't be boring.
