'Stranger' Part 1

Today, you had a plan. Swap with someone you didn't know. You had only been people you knew, but you wanted to be a stranger with no connection to your family. This was your plan: Swap with the dog, go on a walk, swap with someone you see in the park. You were certain this was going to work. You descend the stairs and look around for the dog. You spot him and flag down your twin; "Kiera, can you take the dog for a walk? I did it yesterday."
"Yeah, sure, I'll get him ready." Kiera replies. You were ready. Almost. You look at the dog, then yourself, and click your fingers. You wake up on all fours again. "God, it even feels weird the second time..." you think. You wait to get the lead attached to you as you walk out of the door with Kiera towards the park.


You begin to look around for anyone to swap into, thinking that you could end up as Kiera at this rate - that seemed weird though, living as your sister and seeing everything you shouldn't see. You look around and notice you're starting to head home "Shit, need to get out of this body. Can't see anything down here." you think, and look up at Kiera.
"What's up, bud?" She asks you.
"Ugh, I'm so sorry Kiera." you think again as you look back at yourself and click your fingers, immediately standing up and seeing her dyed purple/grey hair flow down from her shoulders; the sudden jolt nearly buckles your legs and so you sit down, tying your dog to the bench. "Ohhhh, why did I decide to do this?" you sigh into your hands, now covering your face. You take your hands away and look up for more people, until:


"Jackpot."
