Title: Altered Reality
Second Lieutenant Alex Carter strained under the weight of his heavy backpack as he disembarked from the military plane onto unfamiliar ground. He squinted against the harsh sun as his boots scuffed the sand of the forgotten war-torn land that was to be his first deployment. Sleep-deprived, somewhat weary but equally eager, he joined his unit, ready to face whatever was coming.
However, as he gripped his standard-issue rifle, a strange sensation swept over him. His uniform felt tighter, his body comprehensively different. He stumbled, feeling a sudden dull pain in his chest, his heart pounding wildly as his military duty seemed to transform before his very eyes. He touched his chest, shocked by the new curves that were most definitely not there moments ago. His fear rising, he looked down to see that the military fatigues had adjusted - as if by magic - to what was unmistakably a woman's body. Long hair, not blond, cascaded down his shoulders.
Unwilling to believe what was happening, he fumbled into his pocket. His hands trembling, he pulled out his driver’s license, military service card, and social security card, each one bearing a photo that was familiar yet foreign. Each identified him as 'Alexandra Carter', a second lieutenant with her gender marked as 'female'.
Just then, a shrill "Lieutenant Carter!" hailed her from behind. Twisting around, she saw her Commanding Officer narrowly inspect her, a slightly bemused smile on his face as if he didn't understand the turmoil she was experiencing. To him and everyone else, he only saw Lieutenant Alexandra Carter, the same woman they'd always known.
Confusion bubbled within her as she tried to utter out her male name. But all that rolled off her tongue was "Alexandra". She shut her mouth, her head spinning. The universe seemed to conspire against her, forcing her to align with this new reality.
A hint of a soldier’s aftershave hung in the air, a fragrance she had ignored as commonplace, but now, it stirred strange feelings within her. She tried to resist, to replace those sudden new desires with the old ones. But it was forced to the back of her mind as if the woman she had become had only ever been attracted to men.
Her body moved gracefully as she walked. The firm, more masculine strides were replaced by softer, more feminine ones. The sound of her voice was softer too, stripped of its baritone timbre. How she talked, walked, and even behaved, all reflected a woman. Her brain was being rewired, forcing her to say her female name, use female pronouns as if they were the only things she had ever known.
In this chaotic new world, Alexandra Carter would have to find her place, grasping onto the hope that she would uncover the seeds of how this transformation, this altered state of reality, had happened. The mystery unraveled, however, was riddled more with acceptance than resistance - of being forced to give in to the change than trying to fight it. The story of the Second Lieutenant, Alex Carter, was fading, swallowed by the life and adventure of Alexandra Carter, the female military officer.
