## Chapter 1: Introduction and Stuff

Ugh. My life's a MESS. Hey, I'm Berii. Average protagonist, I'm an elite scientist. I recently discovered that creatures have been appearing... Weirdly, they've been seen being formed by stuff that I, ME, I MADE! I used most of the same things to make them, so I have no idea what it could be. Now, back to the story. The head scientist has forced me into finding out why because Laminax Labs (The place I work at) could PERMANENTLY shut down. So of course, yeah! I had to figure out this stuff because I made these things. I just suppose I'll look at the ingredients, perhaps ask the victims. Anyways, I looked at the stuff I made. They all had some ingredients in common: Quollypoine. Now, I have no idea how to even pronounce this even. It's a metal looking fluid, and its edible, which is how the food has it. I have tasted it before, a couple drops, and nothing happened. But maybe I needed like a gallon. Because I may have added a gallon of it into the things. I tasted good, so that's why. Possibility number 2 is Cosmic Cotton Candy. Don't be fooled by the "Cotton Candy" part. We call it that because it resembles cotton candy. It's actually from a planet from a whole other galaxy. Now, I don't even know what planet or galaxy it is from, but what I know is that it looks like cotton candy. Its cosmic like, as if you sprayed a bunch of cosmic dust onto cotton candy. That is what it looks like. We found that its edible, too, and it tasted good! But I never ate a bunch of it. Now, turn the page... My adventure begins there.

## Chapter 2: Interviewing

I decided to get test subjects. I made them eat a bunch of it! But they didn't transform... Just extra limbs and sickness... They did it at will, okay? They signed 10 contracts for this. But apparently, all of my creations have A BUNCH in common! So it'd be almost impossible for me. I'm a bit stupid when I get worried, I apologize. I decide to interview some of my fellow scientists, because some of their creations have transformed people too. I went to my friend, Carmen, who has created 4 things that would transform people.

I went up to her. She was wearing a long-sleeved scientist coat with a red shirt underneath, and a white skirt. She wore a simple red beanie. And of course, her signature goggles which glowed pink. Three eye hole things for some reason, they have two eyes so I don't know... Anyways, I just said this,

"Hey, Carm," I said. "Umm, could I by any chance interview you? Trying to figure out exactly how people are transforming."

"Course, Berri," She replied. "Sit. *Now*."

Intimidated, I sat down immediately. I asked, "What is at least one thing they all have in common? Ingredients. Not Cosmic Cotton candy, or Qui... Quolly... I don't know, but not that."

She picked up the items. "If I can remember correctly, Cored Crystalline Sun Dust. A rather hard one, especially because its Sun Dust and cored."

Also, CCSD (Cored Crystalline Sun Dust) is not edible. She made robot masks, gas masks, hazmat suits, and SOME lab coats. Most got thrown out, but some are still on the rack for some reason. They emit a strange glow depending on what it's on, or no glow at all.

"Is there anything in there which is edible? Sorry if that's a bit weird..."

"There actually is, it's called..."

She just paused and stared into the abyss of endless space, which totally confused me. After what seemed like an hour, she finally said, "Narcaspicous. It tastes good, but is extremely bad for you. It can also stick onto the body, forming into goo."

"I can recall putting that into my stuff," I remembered. "I didn't actually know it was bad, I just knew it tasted good.. I'm a bit stupid and only use the right part of my brain, as you know."

Carmen pat me on the back. "It's okay!" She beamed "I know many stupid people, you're the smartest of the stupid people."

I grinned hearing that. But I couldn't just go feeding people Narcaspicous to figure this out, because it like, IS BAD FOR YOU? Anyways, I asked more questions, "Anything else edible?"

"Parlaxuius," She said. "Similar to cosmic powder, it causes hallucinations though."

But suddenly, it occurred to me that she KNEW about these things.

"Wait, why would you even put those stuff into your gadget machine thingies if you knew it would cause them?"

Yet again, she stared into the abyss. She put her goggles on her face and walked away.

So, that's SUSPICIOUS... THAT'S WEIRD...

## Chapter 3: Artemis Slips On a Bucket

Okay, so I'm really suspicious of Carmen now. She knew about all of those things. Maybe she was being stupid and decided to put those in there, but Carmen is not stupid. She's one of the elite scientists at Laminax for a reason.

I'm gonna interview some of the victims of the transformations. There's one in particular I want to interview. They were part of the elite scientists and uh, really smart. Smarter than me. If your IQ is even only one more than me, you are considered smart.

Their name is the awesome Artemis i Kynigos. She was amazing! Artemis was part of the Hunters' and Huntresses' Square group in Laminax.  Co-Leader and it was in a month that she would achieve the leader title. Unfortunately, she probably slipped on a bucket when the power went out and became a violent animal with a bucket. And I mean animal. Fur and all that jazz. It was kind of gooey though, which I didn't like. I washed my hands 7 times when investigating.

The washing took 8 minutes per time, so I spent about 56 minutes washing my hands. That is almost an hour, dedicated to get that gunk out of my skin.

Artemis is fierce. She can drop kick a grown man who is 2 feet taller than her. Of course, intelligent. Artemis probably sneaks into the lounge area to practice darts with shurikens, but I don't dare mention that.

She was kept in a small compartment. Her door was covered in dozens of knives and other sharp weapons, possibly an attempt to escape. I heard faint screaming, *"WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME HERE?! I WAS LOYAL TO YOUR STUPID LAB! AND YOU LEFT ME HERE TO BE AN EXPERIMENT!"*

Fun. I took a deep breathe and unlocked the door, carefully but not really carefully avoiding being stabbed. I lightly knocked on the door.

Artemis was chained on the floor. She no longer had her old features: A petite woman with dark chocolate, curly, shoulder length hair. Usually accompanied with some strange earrings, typically wearing clothes with whatever matched them. Usually purple. She had several freckles scattered along her face, like chocolate chips on a cookie. She had dark brown complexion. Scars used to be scrambled along her body from hunting.

And now introducing the new Artemis: A chained, badly bruised animal. She was feline-like, visible whiskers ran across her face. I could tell she had open wounds. Artemis had poorly cut fur, seeming to represent her old curly hair. She held a bucket that had a pool of blood.

"Hey Artemis," I said warmly. "I'm trying to figure out the cause of the infection. Since you were also an elite scientist, and still are smarter than me, think you could help?"

"Help?" she scoffed. "You guys put me in this small cube. I was loyal to Laminax Labs. But you all saw me as some experiment! I begged to stay. I begged to keep my job as a scientist. As a huntress. But you guys swept it away."

I frowned. "I'm sorry. But I really need to interview you. As soon as I figure this whole thing out I can set you free."

Artemis grunted. "Alright. Fine."

I didn't really know what to do at this point. I suggest to flip the page. Or just scroll down.
