the collectors 2

After the awkward conversation where Alex proves that she is who she claims to be the group decides that the headmaster may know more about what just happened. Sarah decided to steer the ship because Alex was too much in shock and she felt weird around her in her new body. Shelly kept Alex company but she wasn’t much help.

You know like this you have a way better chance of hitting on me. She said joking.

I really don’t want to talk about that. He replied staring confused at his new breasts.

You do have a cute dress now; Shelly just tried to think of something to say.

Please just shut up.

After a short awkward trip they made it back home. They had a little trouble getting through the front gate because outsiders aren’t allowed in and Alex obvious wasn’t in the database. Luckily Sarah was able to get her in due to her teacher rank. The trio just got in ad they were greeted by Karen the headmaster’s assistant. Some even say she’s his wife but no one ever managed to prove that. Without even asking what happened she looked at the three and told them to follow her to the headmaster’s office. Once there they had to stay in the waiting room until they were called upon. Apparently the headmaster already was in a meeting. A meeting they could hear on the outside.

They heard the headmaster shout through the door; Thanks to you the secret of the coins is out and they are used more than ever. People are actively seeking them out. You stole over half of my coins and used them, you knew the location of the remote, the bottle and the booth and you didn’t report this until it was too late and finally someone caught up to you and used a coin on you and you think I would reward you for that and help you change back? You of all people should know that that’s impossible. So hereby I will demote you back to student and you’ll have to restart your career here in your new body and clothes. If you decide not to comply to this you know the punishment Samus!

Next the three saw a woman who looked a lot like Samus Aran in her zero suit slam the door open mumbling something about the headmaster is an bastard and being stuck in that suit. Through the open door they heard the headmaster tell them to enter his office.

Once they sat down in the office Shelly asked the headmaster who the girl leaving the room just now was.

That was 1000cointg he replied.

Really Shelly said confused, I always thought it was a man.

He was the headmaster sat down in his chair but you know just like him that that isn’t always a permanent stage. He looked over to Alex who couldn’t even look him in the eyes.

So you know what happened sir, Sarah tried to remain professional. So the one coin was the objective.

Yes, the headmaster stared her in the eyes with cold eyes; apparently you three are incapable of following very strict and clear orders.

Sir Alex started half shaking from shock, what was that thing?

The headmaster seemed to relax a little more, Okay have something to drink and listen. Since you now know about the coins I’ll tell you their history.

The story starts around 1000 years ago. Now I can’t tell you exactly when because I don’t know. There was a poor man married to a poor but pretty woman. They spend every day hoping for better times and one day they came. For the man found a bottle containing a genie. Back then there where about 5 of them in the entire world. The genie was a kind genie who told the man that he would get his freedom if he would grand 1000 wishes. At that time the count was 495. So it would take him quite some time before he got his freedom. The man kind and giving told the genie that he would wish for his freedom with his final wish. Of course the genie was overjoyed and wanted to start granting the man his 3 wishes immediately. For the first wish the man wished for riches beyond his wildest dreams and the genie made it so. From that day on the man and his wife lived in a huge mansion with their own vault filled with all sorts of riches in it. Now the man got the taste of power and his second wish was to make him the ruler of the lands he lived in. Again the genie came through and the man became sultan. Now it was time for his final wish and even though he became corrupted by all his money and power he was still a man of his word. Unfortunately he still wanted more wishes and so he came up with a plot. For his third wish he wished that the genie would become human and instead his wife would become the genie of the bottle and the man had three new wishes. After that wish the genie became a very happy normal man and the wife turned into a genie complete with harem clothes. She of course was very upset but the man explained that he would only use two of the three wishes and then release her to enjoy her new powers. His wife agreed and got ready to grand his wishes. But the power started to corrupt the man even more and now he wished to change his wife’s hair. Naturally she didn’t agree but what choice did she have. On his second wish he made her slimmer and bustier. She now was so angry that she told him she would get back at him once she was freed. The man realised that that would be too dangerous to allow too happen so he broke his promise and wished for a harm of 12 beautiful girls that would do whatever he told them to do. Reluctantly his wife was forced to comply and was then sucked into the bottle and the bottle was teleported across the world. While trapped in the bottle the new genie decided that men are pigs and she decided to try and punish them all with their own wishes.

Over the centuries that followed she was release a couple of times and most of the times she made the wishes come true in the wrong way. One day she was found by a group of pirates that plundered a treasury. They didn’t even realise that they found a genie. Once the captain found the bottle and opened it in the hopes that it would contain beer she once again popped out. After she explained that the captain could make 3 wishes he was pleased. Now this captain was good to his crew and he knew that they were annoyed because they haven’t been in port for far too long and thus haven’t been with women for too long. So his first wish was for women on the ship for the crew. He was shocked to see his entire crew turned into women in front of his eyes and his crew was so angry that they wanted to kill him for it. He quickly wished that they couldn’t harm. The genie decided to teleport them to various towns. The captain was not pleased, especially because he now wasted two wishes. He wanted to use his second and third wish for riches but now his was stranded on his ship. The genie of course tried to suggest that he used his third wish to return abroad. He refused. Instead he showed the genie a big chest filled with golden coins and told her that he wanted one wish for ever coin in the chest. The genie complied but told him that a wish made on the coin could not be undone and then she disappeared. The captain figured that keeping all the coins in the same place would be a bad idea so he took the first coin and wished to be able to command the ship without a crew. His second wish was that all the coins would be hidden all across the world except for one and that only he knew where they were. Like that all but one coin disappeared and he took that coin and wished that he could never give the location of a coin to another. This removed his ability to talk and write and without the ability to talk he no longer was able to use the coins so the coins remained where he wished them to.  Now he legends has that there were 1000 coins in the chest but since pirates weren’t so good at math the real amount isn’t really known.
