"There's another one!" shouted the director.
"Shit! We've not even finished analyzing the material from the last one."
"Get down to the beach. She was found swimming a dozen meters offshore about twenty minutes ago."
"Right"

That was three now. Three women transformed. Two of the women were unable to remember how they were transformed or where. Only that they ended up half animal and dropped in public view. Cherry, the latest, had been lying on the beach in the early morning. It had been unusually quiet, very few people had come along. She remembered talking to a guy with blonde hair and a slightly pudgy build. He seemed friendly enough but that was all she remembered save that he sat down in the sand beside her towel. Some time in the next few minutes or hours (she wasn't sure), he touched her and she remembered only that for some reason they'd made love on the beach. She couldn't say why. It was as if she couldn't control her body.

Then sometime during intercourse, she remembered feeling something odd. It turned out it was a tail with a fin growing while her legs began to shrink. Her arms and hands, too, were twisting. By the time they were done, she had flippers instead of arms and a dolphin's tail. He said something about getting her into the water and used her beach towel to drag her into the water. The police, of course, quickly launched a search for the towel in hopes of getting something off it that might yield DNA but the towel along with the guy were long gone. They did find where she'd been dragged into the bay but, aside from some size 11 sneaker prints, there was little of the man that could be used for identification.

It took several hours to get the police artist and her computer down to the beach. The resulting composite could have been anyone. A totally forgettable man. Except that he could warp women's bodies during sex. Except that he'd struck three times. Three times. Leaving mythology in his wake and rings. A ram centaur with a ring of Ares; a sphinx with a ring of Leo and a mermaid with the body of a dolphin with a tail band of Delphinus. Three women, three changes and three constellations. And there were 85 more constellations to go. If they didn't catch him before the creature constellations ran out, there could be living machines. Damn the Victorian explorers for putting microscopes and telescopes in the sky. Hilda prayed they'd catch him before he got that far.
