It's Coach Jennings from Now On

"Wow, Coach," said Alan, stepping out from the shower room, "I have to hand it to ya. Whatever that stuff was, it really did the trick..."

"I'll say so..." said Coach Jennings, approaching the man in front of him, who was now his exact duplicate, "I hate to tell you this now, but I wasn't sure if it was really going to work. You look just like me..."

"Down to every detail," smiled Alan, running his big new hands through his gruff, graying beard.

"Well," said Coach Jennings, "Then I guess it's time for part two... Now, are you sure you want to go through with this, Alan?"

"Yes, I'm sure" said Alan, turning sideways to catch a glimpse of his massive, mature new frame in one of the locker room mirrors, "And it's Coach Jennings from now on. Got it? I've always admired you, Coach. I've always really envied your life. You've always been more than just a role model to me -- you've been the person that I wished I could be. And now I am you -- and that means you've got to become me."

"Oh, Alan!" said Coach Jennings, "You have no idea how happy this makes me. Ever since you first tried out for the team as a freshman, I knew you were something special. I would have killed to be in your position -- so young and so full of potential. And you've only grown since then, Alan. I am so excited to take over your life for you. I know I can achieve amazing things with your body, and I know that you'll be there with me every step of the way -- as my 'coach' now."

"Let's do this," said Alan, confidently.

Coach Jennings took the cup to his lips and slowly sipped down the cool, thick liquid. It produced a strange sensation as it went down his throat, the transformation starting instantly from the inside out. Years melted away from his body, his skin becoming young and smooth and tightly-pulled across his muscles. He was losing a bit of size in this, but he would have a whole lifetime ahead of him to bulk up and get ready for the college and professional teams he was destined to play on. Lastly, his beard receded, leaving him with a face only lightly dusted with teenage stubble, and the hair on the top of his head grew in full and thick and blonde. He ran a hand through it, grinning from ear to ear.

"It worked, Alan!" he beamed, "It worked!"

"Yes it, did," said Alan, "Only you're Alan now. And I'm Coach Jennings."

"Sure thing, Coach!" said the new Alan, bounding with energy he hadn't felt in years, "Oh, Alan! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!"

"You're welcome, Coach," smiled the new Coach Jennings, "Now, hit the showers and then meet me in my office. And then maybe after that I'll take ya out for some pizza for, uh, having such a great practice. How's that sound, kid?"

"Sounds great, Coach! But I can't stay out too late -- I've got homework to do tonight, and early practice tomorrow."

"That's right," said Alan, "My star player's gotta get his rest. But I do hope you find some time to have some fun tonight too."

"I don't think either one of us has to worry about that!" chuckled Coach Jennings as he took his young new body into the shower room, "I think we'll both find plenty of ways to have fun in our new bodies!"
