Chapter 15: Magical Degradation
The leering gangsters formed a crude semicircle, their hungry eyes reflecting the safehouse’s sterile light as one thug barked, "Alright, princesses, show us the magic!" Kara felt a familiar, pleasurable warmth ignite at her core, a pink, neon glow enveloping her body first. Her long, dark blonde hair began to transform, the waves tightening into spiraling ringlets of shimmering, candy-pink enamel, each strand stiff and glossy as it was swept up into high, asymmetrical pigtails tied with giant, frosted white bows. A sparkling, iridescent eyeshadow in shades of magenta and silver coated her lids, extending into sharp wings, while her lips were painted with a plumping gloss that gave them a perpetually swollen, pouty look.
Diana’s transformation followed, her fierce beauty contorting into a doll-like caricature as her black hair was lacquered into a high, architectural ponytail streaked with electric blue, the length seeming to defy gravity. A delicate, glittering tiara materialized on her forehead, its central pink heart gem pulsing in time with her rapid heartbeat. Barbara’s change was the most drastic, her usual grimace softening into a vapid, open-mouthed expression as her red hair was infused with neon streaks and curled into precise, bouncing waves that frame her face.
