"Hey Rick, you in there? I just got a message from Dr. Anthony. It's about your...'condition'." Dan yelled.
"Yeah sure, come in." Rick replied.
Dan opened the door peeking his head in before coming in completely. Dan now was wearing a red shirt along with a pair of ripped jeans, in that outfit, it reminded Rick of when they were in high school together.
Dan sat on the edge of the bed, slightly unsure of the lizard man that was originally human. For a brief moment his eyes flickered to Rick's penis which had still not gone completely into his sheath.
"So, what did you want to tell me?" Rick asked.
"Well due to your rapid healing and "condition", the higher ups want to temporarily send you on a .... vacation per say."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Well they want to make sure you're safe to be around before they send you back to duty. So for a period of about six months you'll be taking a break from the job."
"Really? You mean I get to go back home? I'm not sure man, it's one thing to come back from the military without a arm or leg, but to come back and meet my family as a lizard?"
"Yeah, though do be warned a requirement for this is that cameras will be posted on your house 24/7 so if you and your gal do anything dirty, they'll see." Dan said.
Rick's eyes widened slightly, cameras around his home? I doubt anyone will be happy about that.
"Also don't worry about your family, we already broken the news, though they still want to see you with their own eyes which is understandable."
"When, am I leaving?" Rick asked.
"You'll be leaving tomorrow around 10:00am so you best be gathering any belongings."
"So soon?"
"Like I said, the guys while they know it's you, none of us know anything about your new body, it's for everyone's safety."
Rick thought for a moment. It was definitely better than being locked up on a cell like of of those super-mutant movies anyway. Atleast now he could relax for a bit and learn more about his new body.
"Alright, I'll start packing up right away." Rick replied.
