The guys decided that selecting "Multiple" would be fun, since the description said it would cause the three of them to become conjoined together. However, they agreed that if Brad was going to become a "Triple Threat," then all three heads should be him and him alone. So they decided to select "Single" for now--their time as body bros would come later.
After making the selection for Brad, Tom stepped back from the keyboard as the progress bar appeared on the screen. As it did, Brad felt his body heating up again--this time, it was just his shoulders and and upper body, since this type of transformation would not really affect his whole body. Tom and Steve watched Brad's shoulders and upper body widened--and his shirt with them. Two new holes appeared on either side of the original, and two lumps began growing from them. The lumps then began to grow hair, noses, ears, and other facial features. When the transformation finished, Tom and Steve were looking at a 17-year-old with broad shoulders and three identical heads--Brad now looked like conjoined triplets.
"How does it feel, um, Brads?" Tom asked.
"Cool and freaky at the same time," said the original Brad head.
"It like we're all still the same person," began Brad's right-hand head, "and like we're three different minds at the same time."
"We all know the settings say this is only for a few hours," added the left-hand head, "but maybe this could last, even if our friends and families might freak out a little."
"Maybe they won't," Tom replied. "I think there might be some kind of setting that can make it so others don't notice any change or see it as weird or something."
"In the meantime, it might be confusing referring to all of you as 'Brad'," Steve added, "so we might have to do something about your names."
The Brads agreed, and the three--or five--teens began discussing the naming situation. The names they settled on were thus:
Bradley for their left-hand side head
Brad for the original head
Brady for their right-hand side head
"So, what now?" asked Tom.
"Well, I'd like to be transformed," Steve offered.
