"Surgeon General's Warning"
submitted by Debi
Tony Fitzgerald and Andrew Evans carefully wended their way through the
crowds at the mall. Andrew and Tony were best friends, had been, since their
days in high school. Tony had been the senior co-captain on the high school
football team, and being handsome and athletic, never had any problems
getting girls to go out with him on dates.
He did however, have a problem with keeping them. A knee injury he
sustained during his senior year in high school had ended any chance for a
football scholarship. He became bitter, arrogant, and insensitive to most of
the women that had crossed his path. He had taken up the vices of alochol
and tobacco, no longer seeing a reason to keep from starting. Although still in
his mid-20's, he had already married once, and bitterly divorced from, the
captain of the cheerleading squad out of high school. His glory days of
football since past him, he put his muscles to good use by working
construction jobs out of his meager two bedroom apartment.
Andrew was, in nearly every respect, Tony's exact counterpart. Slightly built
and somewhat bookish, his friendship with Tony had started when he was
asked to tutor Tony in algebra to keep his grades (and his chances for a
scholarship) up. After his injury, Andrew stuck by him and tried to lend
moral support while Tony slowly self-destructed.
Andrew was awkward and shy; he didn't make friends easily, let alone girl
friends. Tony had set him up on a couple of double dates, but he lacked the
necessary self-confidence, and so he had failed miserably to follow through.
Their friendship was forged out of a mutual need for camaraderie. Tony
needed the steadying influence that Andrew gave him, and Andrew just
wanted to have a friend to talk to.
But the power of love is capable of touching anyone, and so it did, even for a
booksmart nerd like Andrew. He had found a girl that he liked at work, and
he had asked her out on a date the following evening. Since Andrew wanted
to make the evening as special as possible, he wanted to pick out a nice suit to
wear. He took Tony along to get the opinion of an expert.
While they walked, they happened by one of the designated smoking areas of
the mall. Seated there was a woman, her shopping bags next to her while she
casually enjoyed a cigarette. Tony couldn't help but stare as they started past
her. Tony had a secret passion for the sight of a woman smoking since he
was a boy. The way they held it, the way they smoked it; everything about it
was erotic. In fact, Tony was certain, one of the minor reasons for his
divorce was his ex-wifes constant nagging about his 'filthy' habit.
Tony wasn't paying any attention to where he was going, so intent was his
focus on the woman, that he promptly managed to embarrass himself by
smacking his head against a nearby pole.
"Shit, that hurt like hell!", Tony exclaimed, rubbing a nasty bruise forming
on the side of his forehead.
The woman extinguished her cigarette, but not before laughing at Tony's
ineptitude.
Tony was incensed. "What are you looking at, bitch?"
Her eyes flashed angrily at him, but she said not a word as she picked up her
purchases and left to another part of the mall.
"C'mon, Tony", Andrew reassured him. "She isn't worth the trouble.
There's one last store I want to get into before we leave. If I find something
in there I like, I'll go ahead and get it. I'll pick you up later on at your place
and we'll go out for a couple of drinks. Okay?"
Tony calmed down. In the corner of the mall was a new store. 'Spells R Us'
the sign said. 'Knick-knacks, Brackabacks, and Assorted Curios.'
'Funny I never noticed this store here before', Tony thought. "Not even so
much as an ad in the paper.' Tony was intrigued.
"I'll tell you what, Andrew. You go on ahead. I'll hook back up with you
here in about ten minutes. There's something I want to check out first."
They went their respective paths, and Tony entered the small little shop. A
small bill tinkled above the door to announce his entrance. He waited a
moment or two to see if someone would come and help him. When no one
came to greet him, he decided to browse around a little for himself.
He brushed away a fine layer of dust from a nearby display to take a peek at
what was inside. There were various trinkets, amulets, and good luck
charms. 'Cheap costume jewelry', Tony surmised. 'Not worth the time to
look at.'
There was a rack of Halloween costumes in the far corner, and Tony gave
each a brief inspection. There were horse costumes, cow costumes, a few
variations on the French Maid costume, and many others.
He heard the low, throaty rumble of an animal behind him. He made no
sudden moves, turning his head to get a better look at what was behind him.
A wolf. A BIG wolf. Its teeth were bared, and its hackles were raised in a
threatening posture. A drop of saliva fell from its mouth to the dusty floor
beneath it.
A voice startled Tony from behind. "Well, hello there, Mister Fitzgerald! Is
there anything at all I can interest you in this afternoon?"
An old man with bright, blue eyes and long, white beard was standing next to
him. He was wearing a floor length dark robe, encrusted with symbols and
runes. The man smiled warmly at him in greeting.
"Well, you could start by calling off your pet." Tony replied.
"So sorry", the old man apologized. He made a gesture to the animal, which
stopped growling to pad over to a corner and lie down. But it was still alert,
and its eyes followed them warily while the old man went behind the counter.
"I have to apologize for the actions of my pet. I've had trouble with thieves
before, so I keep her around to prevent shoplifting." He turned to the wolf,
scratching behind her ears. "And you've done a good job, haven't you,
precious?"
"How did you know my name?" Tony enquired.
The old mans eyes sparkled with mischief. "Mister Fitzgerald, I make it a
point to get to know ALL of my past, present, and future clientele. Someone
in my line of work simply can't make a buck unless they have an edge."
Tony was suspicious. "What line of work are you in, exactly?"
The old man's face was the very picture of innocence. "Oh, just an old man
making a modest living selling things to improve the quality of life for my
customers."
"Now then," the old man continued. "What suits your fancy today? A Tigers-
Eye Amulet, perhaps? Or maybe a blend of shampoo to promote hair growth?
Guaranteed to make a difference in your life."
"I just now noticed this place, and thought I might give it a look-see. But I
don't really see anything here that interests me. I'd better be going. My friend
is going to be wondering where I am."
"I can see that you're a man of discerning tastes. Most of the people that pass
through here are sold on an item immediately for that special someone."
The old man rummaged around, muttering to himself. "Maybe a leprechauns
good luck charm? No. Crystal Ball? No, he won't like that, either. A scroll?
No, that'll never do."
The old man stood back up. "I give up. You have got to be the first person
that I haven't been able to find a suitable item for."
Tony looked down and fished out what was left of his pack of cigarettes.
Empty. Damn. Now I'll have to get Andrew to swing by the store so I can
pick up another pack.
The man's eyes watched as Tony walked over to a trash bin and tossed the
empty pack away.
The old man's expression brightened. "Ah, so I see that you're a smoker."
His hand reached into his robe and he pulled out a pipe, puffing on it
thoughtfully. "I happen to be an afficionado of pipes myself. Old man like me
can't understand the attraction of cigarette smoking though."
Tony listened carefully while the man continued.
"Even the women these days have taken up smoking. They think it makes
them look sophisticated and sexy. Some men find it attractive too, for what
reason I can't fathom."
Tony tried to think of something else, but his instincts betrayed him as he felt
the beginnings of an erection starting in his pants.
The old man appeared to take no notice. "As it happens, I came across a stash
of cigarettes on my travels to the Middle East last summer. A blend of rare
and imported tobaccos, handpicked and rolled by a personal friend of mine,
but I haven't been able to sell many. Would you be interested in taking a few
off of my hands?"
"How much?" asked Tony.
"A pittance, really. I think a dollar a pack would be fair, don't you?"
"Hell, yes! More than fair!" Tony said. He dug out a five spot.
"Good. Then we have a deal." The old man reached behind the counter and
fished out 5 packs. Money changed hands, and the cigarettes were delivered
into Tony's waiting hands. Tony was on his way out the door, when the old
man stopped him.
"Before you leave, I have to ask - you're aware of the long term risks of
smoking and second hand smoke? I hope youve taken the time to read the
Surgeon Generals warning; it'd be on my conscience if I sold these to you
without asking you first."
Tony's voice had an edge of irritation to it. "Yeah, Ive read all that stuff. If
you're gonna preach to me like my ex did before she split on me, then don't
waste your time."
The old man smiled. "My mistake. I had to ask. You'd best be off. Your
friend is probably looking for you."
By then the door had already swung closed.

As Tony drew nearer to his friend, Andrew said, "Where were you, Tony?
I've been looking all over you!"
"Just doing a little bit of shopping my friend. Do you know there's a great
little store back - "
Tony looked back behind him. The storefront was utterly bare, with the
exception of an advertisement for a Fredericks of Hollywood due to open
soon.
Andrew shook his head. "I think you must've hit your head harder than you
thought. C'mon, I have to get going."
Tony stared at the Space For Lease sign for a long time as they left the mall.
****
Tony got to his apartment and ate a modest supper; he had a couple of hours
to kill before Andrew was supposed to swing by and pick him up anyhow.
He settled down in front of the tube to watch an episode of 'Baywatch'
before getting ready.
Tony figured a cigarette would be just the thing he needed to help digest his
meal while he watched. He looked at one of the unopened packs the old man
had sold him back at the mall. "Surgeon General's warning, my ass", he
said. He was just another self-righteous hypocrite who was just trying to
make him feel guilty about his habit.
He opened the pack, extracted a cigarette, and gave it a cautious, tentative
sniff. The last thing he needed right now was to get caught with pot by the
cops. It had an unfamiliar but pleasant aroma to it. Rare and imported
tobaccos, the man had said. He put it in his mouth and lit it. "Well, here's to
ya, old man. I'll smoke one just for you."
He kicked off his shoes and eased back onto the sofa to enjoy the show. The
tobacco had a pleasant taste to it, and it seemed to suffuse his body with
warmth, not unlike soaking in a warm bath. He felt the tension begin to drain
away and he began to relax.
The warm feeling throughout his body began to intensify, and Tony wiped
away a few beads of sweat from his brow. 'Damn, it's hot in here', Tony
reflected as he partially unbuttoned his shirt.
As Tony sat back down and brought the cigarette back up to his lips, he was
unaware that subtle changes were beginning to occur.
His body hair receded from his arms and legs, becoming smoother and softer
to the touch with each passing moment. Tony's hands and fingers slimmed,
and his nails had began to lengthen. Tony giggled to himself.
Tony became aware of a raging hard-on as he continued to smoke his
cigarette. Tony undid his pants, closed his eyes and sighed contentedly as his
free hand drifted slowly downward in an effort to relieve the pressure
building inside him. He moaned softly.
Tony's mannerisms were keeping pace with the changes that were taking
place inside him. Tony thought nothing at all unusual in holding his cigarette
palm up in a distinctly ladylike fashion. In fact, it felt quite natural, as if he'd
been doing it that way all his life, even as he brought the slender cigarette up
to his lips in a slow, sensous gesture.
Tony took a long, slow pull on his cigarette. He tilted his head back,
simultaneously parting his lips and inhaling though his nostrils in a perfect
french inhale. After a moment to savor the sensations, he exhaled a long and
gentle plume of smoke toward the ceiling of his apartment.
Tony could not ignore his throbbing member, and he now began to stroke it
faster with his now feminine free hand. 'God, this feels soooo good', he said
to himself. 'Ohhh, yesss....' he moaned.
Tony's mind began to wander, and he latched onto a fantasy. A woman's
fantasy. In this fantasy, Tony was the woman, and she was entwined with
her lover on a soft bearskin rug, sharing a cigarette as they began to make
mad and passionate love by the soft light of glowing embers from a nearby
fireplace.
Tony focused on the mental image even as he again brought the cigarette up
to his lips with a delicate, feminine hand. He inhaled deeply. His lungs filled
with the sweet taste of smoke. He held it inside his lungs for as long as
possible before he exhaled.
His face thinned and softened even as he exhaled a thin creamy cloud of
smoke from his now full and pouting lips; his eyebrows thinned, and his
eyelashes became longer. His irises had gone from green to blue. There was
no mistaking the fact now that Tony's once manly features had now become
those of a young and beautiful woman. His Adam's Apple disappeared. The
area immediately around the nipples on his chest felt tender and more
sensitive.
*
Her fantasy man began to slowly and gently smother her with kisses before
finally settling on kissing and licking her nipples. She trembled. She wanted
him. She wanted him desperately.
*
His voice became higher as he continued to masturbate at an ever faster pace.
'God, but I feel soooo sexy.....' he gasped in a soprano voice. 'Oh,
God....you make me feel sooo good. Please God, don't...stop...'
Tony's body accomodated his wishes as his body continued its inexorable
slide towards womanhood. His penis had continued its retreat within Tony's
body. A cleft formed and deepened, becoming the soft folds and clitoris of
his newly formed vagina. It yielded gently to his touch, and his hips began to
thrust upward, seemingly of their own accord, in an effort to take his probing
fingers ever deeper inside him. His new pussy quickly became engorged and
wet with arousal.
*
Tony's fantasy man paused long enough to lie down and position her on top
of him. He gently and carefully guided her as she felt him enter her body for
the first time. Slowly, they began to move their hips together, in perfect
syncopation. She sank further and further into ecstasy.
*
Tony surrendered himself completely to the immense waves of pleasure that
seemed to intensify and expand throughout his body. No. Not his body.
HER body. Tony? Who was Tony? There was no Tony. Not any longer.
There was Tanya. And there was a void, a sense of desire building within
her. A void aching to be filled. A void that only a man could give her.
*
Tony and her fantasy man quickened their pace; the world around her was
gone. All she could feel, all that existed, was her lover's shaft driving deeper
and faster inside her with each passing thrust. She felt charged and
alive....his hands moved to her breasts, pinching and playing with her raised
and tender nipples. It was as if every nerve ending in her changing body was
on fire.
*
"Play with my tits...oh...oh....yessss...it..feels....so gooood...............!!"
Tanya massaged the area around her erect nipples in an effort to ease their
tenderness. She gasped in ecstasy as a jolt of electricity shot through her,
unlike anything she had ever known before. She placed the cigarette between
her lips and began to inhale again. Her body yearned for the feeling of the
creamy white smoke hitting her lungs. Small wisps of smoke wafted
delicately away from her lips and nostrils as she exhaled, rising to float above
her like a wreath.
Tanya's body irrevocably crossed, for all time, that barrier between male and
female. Her aureolae darkened and enlarged; her nipples became more
prominent; her breasts swelled and expanded, pushing further and further
outward from her sweat soaked shirt. Buttons popped while her bustline
continued to grow. Her breaths came in short, ragged gasps, her breasts and
body heaving with wanton abandon.
"Fuck me...oh god, please...fuck me.....fuckmefuckmefuckme...!!!!!!', she
wailed. 'Take me now!..."
*
Their bodies were as one, bathed in an erotic sheen of sweat. She felt his
body begin to tense up with his nearing orgasm....her hips ground against
his body as he came savagely, spurting his load deep within her....time and
time again....
*
Tanya gave herself willingly to her primal urges, her body twitching
spasmodically as she began to feel the twinges of her first orgasm building
inside her; Tanya could no longer contain her wild urges, crying out with lust
and desire as climax after climax crashed against her body like waves.
Tanya regained her composure a few moments later. Another cigarette would
calm her down and help her relax. As she deftly and smoothly withdrew
another cigarette and lit it, she happened to see the Surgeon General's
Warning.
"WARNING. The use of this product has been linked with permanent
changes in gender and increased sex drive."
"Why, that's silly," she said, exhaling a plume of smoke gently skyward.
"I've been smoking for years and I haven't ever suffered any ill effects."
