You are just an ordinary Man living by yourself, you have no more living family or friends, and there is nothing special about you, nothing really exciting happens in your life either, it’s all just the same old boring things, either go to school and other young adult stuff, or go to your job and slightly older adult stuff, but that is about to change very soon.
A new neighbor has come to your city, he seems to be an eccentric man, most of society thinks that he is weird, so they don’t associate with him very much, but you decide that you will give him the benefit of a doubt.
You go to his house, and boy is it huge, it looks like it has several floors, maybe 5-10 or more. Anyways it is so big and it looks like it has a lot of superlab equipment. It has many things that you have never ever seen before and you don’t know what they are or what they do.
“Oh hello! You must be my next door neighbor. It’s nice to meet you.” He says when he finally notices you. You ask him what he is like and what all of these equipment are for and he explains that he is in the pursuit of science and he wants to know what it would be like if humans had non-human parts or what it would be like if humans had animal parts, or bodies.
He is so invested in his research that he thinks it would benefit all of humanity if he could do so, some animals like lizards for example can heal their tails if it gets severed from their bodies, sharks have anti cancerous properties in their cells. Monkeys can hang of stuff with their tails if they are about to fall or hold things like an extra arm, Cows have udders from which they pee milk from, Kangaroos have tails they can sit on or pouches to hold stuff, birds can fly, ghosts can pass through walls, heck he is even a cultured guy because he also researched mythical creatures like unicorns, bitcoins, devils, imps, succubus, kitsune s have many tails and powers, Tanuki can shapeshifter phoenixes can revive, Loch Ness monster no longer being a myth, or even bring dinosaurs back from extinction, or even yokai or kaiju etc.
You find this guy weird. But you wish him the best of luck and after some jovial discussions with him and his research you are about to leave, but he doesn’t seem to like that.
“Leaving so soon?!” He asks and he pulls a lever and the door shuts. You are trapped here. He also hits you with a blast from his gun vaporizing your clothes and leaving you naked.
You hope you can escape but it doesn’t look good for you, if you can’t escape you will lose your current human life and be get a new life as something else.
