Still

When Richard finally stopped the cab at the address the young woman had given, he paused before telling her to have a nice day. He knew those words would seal both of their fates. The next thing he knew, it was now him standing on the side of the road inside the young woman’s body watching the cab drive away. At first, he couldn’t move, frozen in place by the taxi’s magic. But after several more minutes, he simply chose to stay were he was, absorbing it all. He could feel himself struggling to balance on the heeled ankle boots, the cool breeze on his bare legs, and the tight feeling of the jean shorts. This was his body now, his life. He hoped the young woman would find a nice new one of her own, but there was certainly no way she was getting this one back!

Teaching a Lesson

When Steve was swapped into the cab driver's body by the Magic Taxi, he read the journal that told him how to swap again, but he thought that wouldn't be fair to the next person. He was resolved to tough it out. That was until Claire got into the cab. She was spoiled, sure, but that wasn't where it ended. She assumed Steve didn't speak English and was on her cell phone the entire time making racially insensitive comments. Steve knew if anyone needed to learn a lesson and spend some time in someone else's shoes, it was this girl. She began to walk out of the cab, ready to stiff Steve on the fare until he turned to her and said, "Have a nice day, Miss." He looked back at the horror on what was his face for the last month, as he sprung away in Claire's body.

Short Trip

After a long first week at his job at the firm fresh out of college, Jim decided to take a taxi home. He was shocked upon leaving to swap bodies with the driver. He wanted to yell, fight, or scream, but instead he just drove away. He didn’t really know what else to do except pick up another passenger and pretend everything was normal. He tried to emulate everything he had seen other cabbies do, even wishing his passenger “Have a nice day” as his driver had done. Jim was even more shocked when he swapped bodies again, this time with the woman he had been driving around. He watched as the cab drove away again, presumably continuing the cycle.

Over the course of an hour, Jim had gone from being a cocky, young kid just out of college to a fat, smelly cab driver, and now he was a middle aged Asian woman. He was hoping to swap again soon -- this was exactly the life or gender he wanted -- however, he hadn’t yet figured out that the swaps had been caused by the magic taxi he had been in, and this body he was now in was his for good.

Late

At this point, the bus seemed to be running at least half an hour late, but Mark still waited there patiently for it. In all honesty, he didn’t feel like he had much of a choice. Calling a taxi was off the table. After all, it was a taxi that was the reason he now had the body of a gorgeous woman. His body had been stolen by the driver, and then he had been able to be steal this woman’s body after that. While the odds of running into that same taxi were low, he still saw it as to much of a risk. He didn’t ever want there to even be the slightest chance of losing this body; it was far too amazing. And so he waited for the bus, no matter how late it was.

At the Mall

Joe realized he probably should’ve made better small talk with this woman while she was in the cab. All he knew was that she had asked to go to the mall; he didn’t know why. Now, thanks to the magic of the taxi he had been driving, he was now her...in her body at the mall. The same thing happened to him a few weeks back, when the former driver had stolen his body. Of course, he had been taking the cab home at the time; it was probably easy for the person who ended up in his body. But now Joe was in this body, at the mall for some reason. She likely needed something; he didn’t know what. Then he would need to find his way home. He certainly had no idea where she lived. Things might actually get a little tougher as time went on...

Quick Decision

Brandon hadn’t slept a wink since swapping bodies with that taxi driver yesterday. He was in shock when it happened, yet somehow managed to drive back to the cabbie’s filthy apartment, as if by instinct. He read the journal and immediately vowed to find a new body. It was a grueling task as he darted through traffic on the streets of one of the busiest cities in the world. Night was pretty dead, but the morning rush offered him hope. Sure enough, a woman headed to Times Square from Brooklyn had a ride that was just long enough to trigger a swap. He knew he didn’t have much time to decide. Her clothes looked expensive...and (of course) he’d be a woman. As she got out, he took a deep breath and said, “Have a nice day.” A gust of wind hit his face as he now stood outside. He had stolen the woman’s body, leaving her trapped inside the cab driver’s body until she stole a life of her own.

Not Worth the Risk

Chip had been waiting for the bus for over half an hour, but he wasn't about to call a cab...not after last time. After all, that magic cab was why he was in this woman's body, why he now lived so far from everything. That weird taxi swapped him. First into the cab driver's body for a few weeks, then into this woman's, who was a passenger. He didn't know how it happened, but he vowed to never take a taxi again. He was enjoying his new womanhood, anyway. He was at least 10 years younger and never felt sexier. Another cab might just be a roulette wheel into another life. He had already won once, depite any odds! It just wasn't worth the risk.

Foreign

While Edward had actually heard of the legend of the magic taxi, he never expected to encounter it while on a business trip halfway around the world. He was stuck in the body of the driver, an older Chinese man, for a while. For starters, in order to swap with another passenger, he was going to have to learn how to say the words “Have a nice day” in a foreign language. He tried swapping with various people, but he must’ve gotten the words wrong. After a while, he just tried to get it right with just about anyone. He actually didn’t intend to swap bodies with the woman he ended up switching with, it just happened to be the first time he actually got the phrase right.

As he stood on the curb, the taxi drove off. He realized he didn’t know much about being a woman, and he certainly didn’t know enough about the language or culture to be a Chinese woman. He sighed. He was probably going to have to figure out a way to immigrate back home. He had heard the process wasn’t easy, but it seemed like a better option than trying to adjust in this country...

Couldn't Stop Himself

When James first had his body stolen and he ended up stuck in the body of the magic taxi’s driver, he was in a state of panic. But as he spent more and more driving people around, he started to actually enjoy it. In fact, by the time he read the driver’s journal and found that he to could steal someone’s body just as his had been stolen, he wasn’t sure he even wanted to. It was about two weeks after he resigned himself to being in this body for good when n Asian woman in a silver coat entered his cab. There was just something about her. He avoided talking to her -- he didn’t want to temp himself by learning to much. It didn’t matter. When it was time to pay the fare, he wished her a nice day and suddenly found himself in her body. He wasn’t sure how or why, but he just couldn’t stop himself from stealing her body. But he smiled...he couldn’t complain either...

Not Just Any Taxi

Simon looked at his app to see that every single rideshare service was upping their fees due to congestion, so he signed up for to share a ride with a person going to the same place. He was picked up first, and a woman got in soon after. They didn’t make any small talk as they were stuck in traffic; they both just seemed to grumble.

They both got out in front of the same building. The driver turned to Simon and said, “Have a nice day, Sir.” After feeling woozy for a moment, Simon replied as soon as he was able, “You have a nice day, too.” He suddenly found himself once again feeling woozy.

He didn’t realize he swapped with the driver; he never got a chance to read the journal. It was probably the shortest time stuck in the driver’s body in the history of the magic taxi. But as he now stood on the side of the road in the body of the woman he had just ridden with, he did guess that the swap had something to do with the taxi. He began trying to hail another, hoping to take another ride and trigger another swap. He didn’t want to be stuck as a woman, but he had no clue that not just any taxi would do the trick; it had to be the one specific magic taxi...

Bicycle

Victor hadn’t owned a bicycle since he was a kid. He knew they were popular in the city, but he never used one. He had always taken a cab everywhere. That all changed after his body was stolen by a cab driver. He thought he would trapped in that fat, middle aged body forever, but after weeks of driving, he thought that if his body was stolen while in this cab, maybe he could steal someone’s body as well. Soon enough, he found himself in the body of an attractive young woman. He soon realized cabs were no longer an option. For starters, he didn’t want to risk being stuck in that cabbie’s body again--not even for another second! Next, this woman was poorer than he had been. He might have been able to afford a cab once and a while as a treat, but not on a regular basis. He decided it was time to ride a bike again, and (as the saying goes) he had never really forgotten how. As an added plus, it kept his new, beautiful body in great shape.

Careless

Randal couldn’t believe he could be so careless! He knew the words “Have a nice day” would swap him with a passenger leaving the cab -- just as it swapped him into the driver’s body a few days ago -- but his sense of courtesy just kicked in as the pregnant woman stepped out of the vehicle. He was shocked as the cab drove away; he asked himself if he had said what he thought he did. Of course, considering he was now standing on the side of the road instead of sitting in the driver’s seat, the answer was obvious. He didn’t want to be this woman! He didn’t want to be a woman at all! He certainly had no desire to be pregnant! He started to feel anxious. Then he felt a dripping down his leg. At first he thought he had peed himself, but he had seen enough movies to know -- his water had just broken!

Clubhopping

Originally posted on April 3, 2010.

For the past week Jim had been trapped inside the body of the fat, disgusting cab driver. He was desperate to get out when the perfect victim to bodyswap with got into the taxi. She was a cute asian woman drunk out of her mind. He had just assumed she was going home, so after wishing her a nice day after arriving at the location, and initiating a swap, he was a little surprised to find out that she was simply clubhopping to another bar. He nearly feel over from being tipsy, and had to grab the cab's door for support. He stumbled into the club, looking for some guy to go home with; after all, he didn't know this girl's address. He was a little too drunk to even think about simply checking her purse for ID.

Skills

Jonathan was shocked after taking a cab ended with him swapping with the driver. Perhaps even weirder was that despite never learning to drive, he seemed to have no problem doing so while in the cabbie’s body. It was as if the body itself maintained a memory about how to drive. In a similar manner, he knew how to swap bodies with one of his passengers. It didn’t take him long to pick one, a woman who got into his cab in an outer borough. And, sure enough, after he swapped with her, he was able to pick up many of her skills without even thinking about it. Only a few blocks from where he dropped her off, he checked himself out in the side mirror of a car, adjusting his makeup like it was second nature. He knew he knew nothing about being a woman, but he was sure he was going to be able to figure it all out without any problems.

Getting Back

Originally posted on April 22, 2010.

While some enjoyed the new lives given to them by the Magic Taxi, Phil was not among them. He had searched and searched for his old body in the hopes that he could swap back to himself again. After the cab started giving him unspeakable pains, he finally swapped with someone, a young woman. It certainly wouldn't have been his first choice, and if he hadn't been in so much pain, he probably would've been more thoughtful about the swap. Now he spent his days trying to take as many cabs as possible in the hopes of finding the Magic Taxi again, and maybe, just maybe, eventually use it to get back to his old body.

Spoiled

Derek smiled as he stumbled out of the cab. Moments ago he had been the man driving the cab, and a few weeks before that, he had been a middle-aged, middle-class single man, unhappy with his life, his go-nowhere job, and his sexless evenings. At first he cursed his luck when the cab driver stole his body. He had gone from office slave to lower class cab driver. Then he realized that with this magic taxi, he too could steal someone's life. He hadn't considered being a woman until Debbie, a spoiled, drunken party girl entered the back seat. All she could do was brag about her rich, spoiled life. Well, Derek decided that life would be his now. As she walked out, he stole her body, leaving her in the cab to fend for a new body.

Second Time's a Charm

Originally posted on June 25, 2018.

Ethan was pretty excited to be taking a taxi today. Of course that was because he knew exactly what was special about this particular taxi -- it was magic! He had been the driver of this taxi about a month ago, right after the previous driver had used the magic of the taxi to steal his body. And in turn, he proceeded to steal the young woman’s body he currently possessed. It was a bit of an accident on his part. He hadn’t intended to swap with her; he hated being a woman. But now he was going to have a second chance.

He faked getting a phone call and started talking very loud about “daddy’s money” and the “big inheritance” he should be receiving any day when “daddy kicks the bucket.” It was all a lie, of course, but he wanted to seem rich, spoiled, and undeserving. He wanted to make this body desirable but also unworthy -- in essence, a perfect target for any good natured driver of this magic taxi. Heck, it’d even work for any bad-natured driver also.

But the ride came and went and Ethan arrived safely at his destination without swapping once again into the body of the taxi’s driver. There was no “Have a nice day,” no $50 tip. He just stood on the curb wondering what he did wrong, and it he would get a third shot at riding in the magic taxi.

Pushed Away

Originally posted on February 16, 2017.

Jack couldn’t believe how well the night was going. He was sitting in the backseat of a cab making out with his girlfriend, Stephanie. He was sure that this was the night that she would take him back to her place and they would go all the way. It all seemed to be going so well, but as they exited the vehicle her attitude quickly changed. She pushed him away, telling him to get back in the cab, and go home. What he didn’t know was that as he drove home in the backseat, Jack was still technically in the cab with Stephanie; except that she was now driving in the front seat, having swapped bodies with the cab driver.

Meanwhile, back up in Stephanie’s apartment, the cab driver was checking out his new life. He had actually intended to swap with Jack, but a slight miscalculation caused him to switch with Stephanie instead. Mostly, he was glad to out of the body of the cab driver, though being a woman would certainly take some getting used to. The one thing he was sure he didn’t want to do on his first night as a new gender was get deflowered, which is why he sent Jack packing as soon as he could.

Syllable

The magic taxi had given Zach a once in a lifetime opportunity, and he had to go screw it up. A few weeks ago, he had been swapped into the cabbie’s body, and after reading the guy’s journal, he discovered that he now had one shot to swap himself. As a result, he mostly tried to pick up fares on Wall Street. One day, he picked up a guy he knew would be perfect. He wore a power suit, talked business on his phone, and even had a personal assistant with him. The assistant was a quiet woman, a bit uptight and stuffy. When the pair exited the cab, he knew it was his chance. He spoke the magic words, “Have a nice day, Mis...” But before he could add the final “-ter” syllable, the magic took effect, and he ended up swapping bodies with the young assistant. He immediately tried to hail the cab again, much to the confusion of the man he was with. But after a minute, Zach knew the cab was long gone, and he was stuck with this woman’s life. He started to cry. The man tried to console him, but how could he even begin to explain what had just happened to him?
