Raphael was woken by someone vigorously shaking him, and, after a moment, he realized he was in the infirmary.
“Get up, master.” Emily said, her shaking growing in intensity as he looked at her.
“Enough, Emily.” He growled. “Remember who’s employing you.”
“Not you.” She said smugly. “I got a transfer, and none too soon, let me tell you. My grades were really starting to dip thanks to your little schemes.”
“Those aren’t important, you have a practically guaranteed job working for me. Trust me, you’ll come crawling back to me once things start going wrong.”
Emily snorted. “As if.” She straightened up, then walked towards the door. “She’s awake, Kali!” She called.
She? Raphael looked down and…yes, she was a girl now. That wasn’t really a big deal to her, angels weren’t fussy about sex and gender, but what was a problem was her clothing. Her sharply tailored shirt and pants had been traded out for a rather loose, ill-fitting pink dress. She looked ridiculous, and that simply wouldn’t do. She’d have to have her grandmother get her a new wardrobe.
“So, sleeping beauty finally woke up.” Kali said, entering the room, Emily close behind. “Let’s talk, there are going to be some…changes for you.”
Raphael opened her mouth to speak, but Kali held up a hand. “And before you say anything, your grandmother is aware of what I’m doing here. In fact, she’s given me express permission to discipline you as I see fit. She said you need to have your ego taken down a few notches.” Kali smirked. “Can’t imagine where you learned it from.”
Raphael grit her teeth but said nothing. She wasn’t about to just believe that, but she was wise enough to realize that now wasn’t the time to start talking back. She had enough experience to know that being disrespectful to people above her station would only end in pain. But she would talk to her grandmother later and get this sorted out, she wouldn’t let herself be pushed around like this.
Kali gave her a sad look. “She’s messed you up more than I thought.” She said softly, then shook her head. “But now’s not the time for that. We need to talk about consequences. The first is that Emily is being transferred, and you will be left without a servant until I deem that you’ve learned your lesson about misuse of your power over people. Should we find that you attempt to coerce or bribe people into doing the work of a servant for you, you will receive additional punishment, understood?”
Raphael nodded slowly, and Kali continued. “And, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, the second is that we’ve turned you into a girl for the time being. Carmen has decided that it would be fitting if you had to experience what she’s going through.”
Raphael raised an eyebrow. “And what exactly is that?”
“Carmen’s given me permission to tell you and Emily, but you two aren’t to tell anyone else, understood? She and Lilith used to be male before Lilith became a Perfect Chimera. And, although Carmen is great at transforming others, their body is…abnormal, so she can’t work with it the same way she can with normal people. Anyway, Carmen wanted me to let you know that, if you have any trouble adjusting, you can go to Lilith, she’ll probably help you out.”
Kali smiled slightly. “I took the liberty of changing your wardrobe for you, too. It should fit you much better than your old clothes would have. And no, you’re not getting new stuff. You’re going to be like everyone else and live with what you have. Your clothes aren’t all dresses, don’t worry, I still left you stuff you can move around in. Oh, and if you find that you outgrow any or even if they’re too big, I can do size adjustments, that’s not a big deal. Just no replacements.
“Oh, and, before I forget, how old are you?”
“Eight. Why?”

“Just wanting to make sure you wouldn’t get caught up in puberty during this. If you’re good, you should be done with this by then, but if you’re not, and you still want to change back, come talk to me, I’ll make sure you’re whatever sex you would prefer for that. It’s hard enough without an added complication like this, you know?”
Kali gave her an infuriating smile and a wave before turning to the door. “Anyway, I gotta go check on Lilith, I’ll leave you to think about things.” With those words, Kali made her way out of the room and Emily followed, shutting the door and leaving Raphael alone with her thoughts.
Lilith woke in a bed, a series of messages blocking her vision. No one seemed to be in the immediate area, so she took the time to read through them and make sure they matched up with the memories Carmen gave her.
