Nicolas thought it was so cool. The visiting delegation from
Quintor IV have a special gift no human could ever hope to possess: they can
see several minutes into the future and affect the outcome. This gift comes in
handy when dealing with the government or working on a business deal.
A Quintor girl, Jennifer, took an interest in Nicolas when
he showed up every day for the news briefing. The briefings are stale news
events few paid any attention to. Jennifer knew Nicolas was not there for the
news.
Nicolas was too shy to approach the delegation so Jennifer
introduced herself to Nicolas. The friendship grew from the start and fast.
Jennifer took Nicolas under her wing and taught him about the universe around
him. Nicolas lamented his lack of ability. That is when Jennifer revealed only
a Quintor female has such skills. She also revealed they have the technology to
make him such a girl.
Nicolas would do anything to see the future like the Quintor’s
do. Jennifer took him to her spaceship and showed him the lab. The technician
was so excited to be working on a human subject. Nicolas took a seat in the
transformation chamber. The door closed and the chamber filled with a dense
vapor. When the vapor cleared Nicolas was the Quintor girl you see here.
Jennifer changed Nicolas’s name to Lucinda and helped her
learn the skill of seeing the future. Lucinda is a fast learner. Lucinda soon
became a liaison between Earth and Quintor IV. Earth governments trusted Lucinda
to have their best interests at heart. It was a bad assumption. Lucinda
considers herself far more Quintorian than human anymore.
