...3 years old. This would guarantee that Edwin would be more carefree, and on top of that, he wouldn't even be in grade school yet. Edwin also checked the 'Alter Reality' option since he didn't want either his parents or Dawn to question why he suddenly turned into a toddler, even though his mother would have been thrilled to see him as her little one again. Edwin also realized that since he would be a toddler again, he would have had trouble using the Chronivac after the changes, but he also wanted this to be temporary. With that in mind, Edwin thought 1 week would be more than enough to spend as a toddler. After months of anticipation, his hand started to tremble as he pressed 'Enter', which started the changes.
At first, Edwin had only noticed minor changes throughout his body, with the hair on his arms and legs receding within seconds, as did what little stubble Edwin had. Edwin laughed in joy at the realization that he was actually changing, then laughed again when he heard his voice cracked, a string of giggles that eventually rose to a boy's alto. While his voice was getting higher, Edwin realized that he was shrinking. Since the reality option was enabled, his clothes shrank along with his body, morphing into clothes more appropriate for a toddler. Edwin also felt most of his teeth receding, which was surprisingly painful, forcing him to complain of that pain in his increasingly boyish voice. Not long after regaining all of his baby teeth, Edwin started to feel something strange around his waist. Before he could check himself out, however, Edwin found himself being taken to bed, and being tucked in, by his mother!
Edwin was initially puzzled by this, considering that it was only 7:00 at night, before he realized that he was now 3 years old. He felt his way around the racecar bed that he had found himself in, only being able to see thanks to a nightlight that was also added in his room. Edwin didn't want to turn on the light in his bedroom because this was supposed to be his bedtime, but he wanted to see himself after the changes were made. Standing near the nightlight, Edwin noticed the two-piece dinosaur pyjamas that he was wearing, and he also noticed how small and cherubic he had become. The baby fat that had dominated his body until puberty had returned, and Edwin was finally able to see what was touching his crotch. His jaw dropped when he realized that he was now wearing training pants! "I guess I'm toilet twaining again," Edwin whispered before cringing about his lisp that had also returned, "Can't wait to see what pweschool is gonna be like."
Edwin then returned to bed, which was a challenge for him to climb into given his smaller stature, and fell asleep, ready to begin his week in toddlerhood.
