Title: "Reluctant Reality"
Lieutenant Jamie Stevens stood aboard the USS Wisconsin, her gaze fixed over the endless sapphire expanse of the Pacific. The salty ocean breezes pulled on her uniform, adjusting it to the subtle curves of her now frail body. She felt something strange above her neck, her hands automatically reaching up to touch the unfamiliar sensation of lengthy hair twirled up into a rigid military bun.
Jamie was a new cadet, fresh out of college and on her first deployment. However, despite these facts, something felt unfamiliar. No, not 'felt,' she knew it was wrong. She should've been wearing men's fatigues, her hair should've been cut short - military regulation after all.
Reaching into her pocket, she pulled out the cards that should hold the truth. But what met her gaze was the stark femininity of her driver's license, her military service card, her social security, all reflecting the same name - Lieutenant Jamie Stevens. A phantom memory tried to assert itself, a male name she knew was genuinely hers, but disappeared just as quickly as it had surfaced. It was as if reality had re-written itself in a matter of minutes.
Panic rose in her as doubt seeped in, was there something wrong with her mind? Yet, those around her seemed oblivious. In their eyes, she was Lieutenant Stevens, they spoke to her with familiarity, seeming not to notice or remember her change.
She tried to argue, to insist that she was a male, but found herself incapable. Every instance she attempted to address her former identity was overpowered by an irresistible force to use her female name and pronouns.
In her confusion, she noticed another striking change - Jamie found herself drawn towards her male fellow officers. This was something entirely alien to the Jamie she remembered. He - she - had always been attracted to women. Yet now, she felt her heart racing at seeing the men around her. She tried to resist, revolted by this sudden shift, but it was of no use.
Every aspect of her existence was sabotaged. She was molded into a female persona, her walk, her talk, her gestures. The masculinity she remembered felt like a foreign element, pushed aside by the overwhelming reality.
Jamie fought the change with everything she had, but gradual acceptance seeped in with the achingly long days on the sea. The physical changes were a reality she was slowly learning to accept, but the mental transformation felt insufferable. However, she realized there was nothing she could do but adapt. Acceptance was challenging but eventually became her only ally.
Embracing the feminine persona she woke up with, she began to engage it, scrutinizing it first then gradually living it. Jamie's male past felt like a fading dream, an illusion she once held.
She was a woman. Whatever had happened was irreversible. Lieutenant Jamie Stevens was now a woman in the Army, commanding respect just like she always wanted, merely in a different body. It wasn't her choice nor her preference, but it was her reality, one she had to live with.
