Taylor Swift: Cyberwoman
It wasn't Taylor's first brand endorsement deal by any means,
but budding tech company Cybus Industries had offered her more money
than all of those previous businesses combined. While initially wary of
such a lucrative offer, it was Swift's agent (and army of lawyers) who
made sure that it was indeed a legitimate deal, and it wasn't long until
she found herself in the halls of the company's new Silicon Valley
headquarters.
The secretary
stopped before a blue door marked with a silver plaque reading "Dressing
Room", twisting the knob and holding it open to allow Taylor to pass.
"The studio is through the double doors at the end of the hall." Before
Taylor could respond, the door had already closed behind her, followed
the immediate click of a deadbolt. Fluorescent lights from above
suddenly activated, illuminating the grey walls of hexagonal-shaped
room. The chamber was completely devoid of any mirrors or furnishings
one would typically find in a dressing room, nor was there any artistic
decor save for the two flat-screen televisions and a large company logo
on the walls in front of her. It should have been her first warning that
something was wrong.
In the center of the
floor was a grey hexagon trimmed by white lights underneath, and Taylor
stepped inside. The lights intensified a moment as the monitors
simultaneously flashed a single line of text: "PLEASE REMOVE CYBER-DISK
FROM CONTAINER." Below one of the screens, a silver rectangular drawer
slid open. Taylor approached the drawer and removed it's lone contents: a
silver disk, no bigger than a CD. She examined the disk before looking
back up to the changed text: "REMOVE ALL ARTICLES OF CLOTHING AND
ACCESSORIES BEFORE ACTIVATION." The singer's eyes scanned the room for
any hidden cameras, examining every nook and cranny before she was going
to take anything off. Determining that the room was clean, she removed
the millions of dollars worth of clothing in the center of the hexagon.
The
screen then switched to a digital rendering of a woman holding the
Cyber-Disk in her hand before placing it on her chest. Taylor mimicked
the woman's movements, letting the disk rest in the space just below her
neck. Suddenly, the disk began to buzz with life, and the sharp sting
of needles dug into soft flesh where the three "Y" shaped prongs of the
disk were. She winced, quickly reaching up to pull the object off, but
found that it had embedded itself deep inside her. It was at that moment
that she noticed her skin turning silver. The shiny substance was
creeping both up and down her body, slowly spreading like a cancer.
Sensations of pain and pleasure during this transformation were
overwhelming, forcing the girl to her knees as it continued to take
control. With every passing moment it was becoming harder and harder to
resist the change, and it wasn't long before she completely surrendered
herself to the artificial euphoria sweeping over her.
The
silence of the waiting room outside was broken by a rapid series of
beeps from the receptionist's computer, the pop-up notification
on-screen reading "DRESSING ROOM 3: CONVERSION STATUS: COMPLETE." She
rose from the desk and walked down the corridor, stopping outside the
Dressing Room. The swipe of a keycard opened the door, revealing a
silver humanoid standing at the center of the hexagon, seemingly
awaiting her arrival. The secretary gave a once-over on Taylor's new
platinum figure, seeing that the transformation was a success. "If
you'll follow me, they're waiting for you in down in the photography
studio." Her movements were stiff and robotic, lacking the unique walk
every human developed over their lifetime. There was no more record
companies or concerts for Taylor to worry about anymore, her purpose now
was to serve Cybus, and to long for the day when humanity would join
her in submitting to the machine...
A user on DeviantArt had contacted me some time ago, inquiring about commissioning an image and story where Taylor Swift was turned into a Cyberwoman (as I had done several similar pieces in the past depicting a "unique" take on the Cybermen of Doctor Who). In the context of "my universe", Cybus Industries existed in an alternate Earth, one which they eventually assumed complete control over using nano-machines that converted the population into Cybermen and Cyberwomen. With nobody left to convert, they broke the barrier between their world and another, one in which the character of The Doctor does not exist. This image depicts the early days of Cybus in their native world, and how they used a celebrity endorsement to convince the public to purchase their body-altering products.
(Above): Taylor Swift in the middle of Cyber-conversion. One key aspect of the nanomachines is that its never painful for the subject during their transformation, in fact, many would describe it as orgasmic.
(Above): Swift's transformation is complete, her body now covered by nanomachines from head to toe.
