"We'll be assigning you to Formula TG005. You're the eighteenth person today who will receive this formula. It'll be administered via a syringe, into your upper arm." The doctor explained.
"And what is it supposed to do to me?" Eric asked.
"It is our fifth attempt, and still a trial-version, of what is supposed to become a drug that can completely alter the patient's sex. In your case, you should expect physical changes that intend to transform you into the opposite sex, a female. However, given that the drug is still in an early trial-phase, we have found that the transformations can be imperfect, incomplete, or they completely miss their target, leading to no or to completely unrelated changes to your body."
So the drug was supposed to turn him into a woman, but supposedly only for a short amount of time.
"We allow our test subjects access to several facilities in our laboratory, including a personal room to stay in until the drug trials are over. We allow free movement in and outside of the facility at all times, although some areas are still restricted. You will be allowed to go home if you may wish. The monetary compensation you receive at the end of the trial still depends on your full cooperation though. We'd like to monitor any changes, either directly or via detailed reports from your own experiences, so as to gain as complete an understanding as we can of the changes to our formula."
The amount of money Eric could earn from this trial thus depended on how much he worked together with them.
"Will I be able to meet the other test subjects on the drug trial as well?"
"Free movement inside and outside the facilities is allowed, so there's a good chance that you'll be able to meet them on a daily basis."
Eric asked several more questions, but ultimately, he was convinced to partake in the trial. The drug was supposed to turn him into a woman, and he was no stranger to the curiosity of being part of the fairer sex, even if only for a short amount of time.
When he eventually agreed, the doctor injected the syringe inside his arm, and Eric waited for the changes to start.
