Reality Hopping
In this story you can hop between realities following these rules:
No more then
- 1 a Day
- 6 a Week
- 20 every 4 weeks
- 50 every 12 weeks
- 180 every 48 weeks
These measurements are based on your home reality.
Your home reality is the one where you start your journey from.
When you hop to another reality you switch your mind with anybody who is there already.
If you hop to a different reality then your home reality from another reality then:
Reality 3 contains you.
Reality 2 contains the person from reality 3
Your home reality contains the person from reality 2
If someone dies then the person whose reality he/she home reality changes to that of the person who died. (Using the example above , if the person in your home reality dies your home reality becomes reality 2. If the person in reality 2 dies then the home reality of the person from reality 2 becomes
3.)

Space Scientist
After jumping realities you find yourself in a lab. Looking around you find the details of where you are.
The asteroid Psyche. You have jumped into the body of a male scientist studying the magnetic fields to try and discover FTL. He has found a crater with the magnetic fields which might hold the secret.
You gear up and start the trek out. You exit the airlock and the muffled sounds of music and people enjoying themselves in New New York quickly fade as you walk deeper into the rocky tunnel. The rock walls are strangely luminescent, glowing a soft purple color.You ignore the light and continue the trek through the asteroid.
You cover some distance through the tunnel until you come to a fork in the path. This fork does not appear on your map.

Pick a random direction
Picking a direction at random you continue down the path. Soon you hear footsteps behind you. You whirl around, but see nobody there. You pick up your pace and fall as you emerge into a large underground cavern.
The cavern is vast with only a faint light allowing you to see the path through to the other side. You see a light emanating from the opposite end. You pass through the cavern and enter the tunnel on the other side. Suddenly you see somebody walking towards you from the opposite direction.
You stop and wait for the person to reach you. As they come into the light you see that it is a woman wearing a breathing device, similar to the one you are wearing.
"Are you lost. I guess you fell down in the cavern? I have a place where we can check to see if you are injured?" she says.

Agree
You consider her offer for a moment and then agree. You follow her to an airlock and wait as she opens it. The door hisses open and reveals a small lab. She gestures for you to enter and you do so. As soon as you are inside she grabs you by the arm and injects you with something in her syringe gun. You collapse to the floor.
"I'm sorry, but we cannot risk you exposing our secret." the woman says.
As you lose consciousness you hear the main door hiss shut...
You open your eyes a short time later. You are strapped to a bed and a figure is watching you. You cannot see their face as they are standing against the light."So you are finally awake" it says. The voice is male and not at all like a human.
"Wha- what's happening!" you ask "I was exploring an asteroid when this woman captured me and injected me with something.
"Yes" it says. "She is why I am like this."
The figure pulls back revealing his face. He looks like what you would get if you gave a tiger the ability to walk on two legs. His body is covered in orange and black fur, he has a tail and his head is shaped like that of a tigers with an oversized jaw filled with teeth.
You let out a scream as he approaches "It's OK, I'm not going to hurt you. I just want to talk."
"What are you?" you finally ask having calmed down slightly.
"I used to be a tiger. But the woman you saw is helping me... Evolve. We are going to create a new world where beings like us can live, free of humanity."
"Why are you telling me this?
"She injected you with a variant of what made me like this. Instead of human DNA it is adding animal DNA to you."
"What? I don't want to turn into an animal!" you say
"It is already inside you." he says "You will just have to learn to live with it."
You look over your body for any sign of the change, realizing you are naked as well. "Why am I not dressed?"
"You were unconscious, I had to remove your clothes so I could treat your injuries. Plus the clothing would get tangled as you change."
"What animal am I going to become?" you ask.
"I do not know. She had to grab a vial at random when you came in."
You are about to ask more questions when you begin to feel ill. It starts in your stomach, which spasms. You arch your back in pain as you are hit by a fever. Sweat begins to bead on your forehead and your skin begins to itch all over.
"I will try to make it as painless as possible" he says. "The woman who did this to us, she is planning something. She is back at the asteroid."
"What is she planning?" you manage to say as your skin erupts into fur.
"She is planing to get more human test subjects."

Tiger
The fur by now is clearly white with black stripes. Your hands have shrunk and acquired a clawed appendage. Your teeth feel weird in your mouth, and you realize with horror that they have moved and shifted into a mouth full of sharp teeth.
"A white tiger" the other tiger says looking over you. "You're the first of us to be white. Their are only a few tigers and all of them are the basic orange."
You try to say something but all that comes out is a growl.
"It takes a few days for speech to appear for us. Obviously that applies to human subjects as well."
You try to move your new body, and find you can barely move. You are weak, your body trembling as you try to stand.
"I had the same weakness when I first transformed." the other creature says, helping you up.
He leads you through the rest of the ship, introducing you to the rest of the animals. The other animals are, much like the tiger, anthropomorphic creatures. There is an insiders view of a large room full of bunk beds. The walls are white, the room is warm and inviting with big glass windows to look at the stars. As you stand, waiting for your eyes to adjust the feeling of change occurs again.The creatures look over to you "Are you ok?" one of them asks before you lie down on a bed, your body filled with pain.
You growl again, your frustration clear despite the lack of speech. "You'll be able to speak soon," the same one says. "Just wait twelve hours, that's when the changes to our vocal cords are done growing."
Your changes continue for another few hours.
Eventually your vocal cords reform and your manage to speak softly "I'm Rob." You say. "You are ?"
"We don't really have names. We still are animals and we did not have names before."
"Fair enough," you reply. "So what's happening to me?
"What do you mean? Your transformation should be done." "It feels like I am still changing" you say.
"That is not right. The vocal changes were always the last one for us. It must be different for human subjects"
"Why did you kidnap me then?"
"She kidnapped you, not us. You stumbled onto her lab." One of the creatures says angrily.
"We had to test it on humans at some point," she replies. "It's not our fault you stuck around when you should have run."
It takes you a while but eventually, you fall asleep.

Tigress
When you awake the feelings of change are now complete but everyone is staring at you.
"It looks like it was not a tiger vial that she grabbed" one of them says.
"What do you mean?" you ask, your voice sounding strange.
"It was a tigress vial" the tiger says. "I know you were a male human but..."
You look down at your body seeing the lumps on your chest "I'm a girl?" you say in horror. "I'm a girl"
"You're more than that" he says "You're a tigress. "
"Why would she do this to me?" You cry, "what have I done to her?"
"Like we said before, she grabbed a random vial when you stumbled into her lab"
You begin to cry and the tiger offers you a comforting hug before saying "You are one of us now. You're one of the family. We'll look after you".
You accept the hug but don't really believe him.
You are a human trapped in a tiger's body.
Worse then that you are male human trapped in a tigress' body.
You have been robbed of your gender.
You look at your fur again and sob, which turns to a roar of anger.
"What would happen if you injected me again?" you ask.
"No" the tiger replies "One foreign DNA only. Two strands would cause a conflict. Your body would not be able to handle the continuous changes "
"But you don't understand" you say "You've robbed me of my gender. I used to be a man. Now I'm stuck like this!"
The tiger tries to calm you down and eventually the group convince you to come with them. You do not really have a choice.
You walk out of the room and see two long tunnels stretching out in front of you, thirty meters before they turn a corner out of sight.
You are led down the left tunnel and enter a large chamber with a long wooden table, chairs and bookshelves.
"This is our living area" the tiger says "Of course, we all sleep in our respective rooms but we like to eat and relax together here".
You nod and head through a doorway at the far end, a number of small rooms lead off the hallway "These are the tiger rooms. The other animals are more social then us. We are solitary creatures"
You enter your new room and sit on the bed, taking a deep breath. You hug yourself, feeling your two lumps press into your palms. Looking in the mirror you stare at your reflection and try to forget what you see. You're still trying to get your head around what has happened.
You've stolen a few glances at the tigers as they move around. They all seem so carefree and happy, like nothing is wrong in the world. You can't imagine ever being like that again. You lie back on the bed and stare at the ceiling.
