Ryan came bursting through the door to the playroom with a wrench in his hand. "I heard a scream, is everything..." he hesitated taking a look at the now transformed Mike and the worried looking Sei. "Sei, what the hell's going on here? Where's Mike?"
"I know it's weird, but this is Mike! The crap in here changes you!" Sei said urgently, looking around the room.
"Ha ha, very funny, Sei. Really, where's Mike and who's that?"
"It's true!" Mike screeched in her high voice. "I'm Mike! I touched that freaky doll 'cus I thought we could sell it, you know? And then before I knew what happened, it turned me into this! I think that you change to match whatever toy you grab."
Ryan couldn’t help but laugh at the naked little girl. "So lemme get this straight sweetie. You and Sei’re trying to get me to believe that if I like take this toy soldier,” he grabbed an army action figure off of a pile to his right before the others could stop him. “then I’m gonna…. Woah… what the….” Just as Mike had a moment before, Ryan felt a shock and tried to drop the toy, but found her couldn’t. “Uh… Sei….”
“We tried to tell you,” Mike said.
Ryan found himself getting smaller and younger, losing about an inch every second. He put his hand up to his face and found that he could no longer feel his shadow; his facial hair was pulling into his body as he got younger, and other signs maturity were leaving him as well. Ryan’s face showed an expression of horror as he lifted his shirt to see his baby fat reappearing around his waist. Next, his pants and underwear fell from his thinning waist revealing his now hairless boyhood. Ryan looked for himself and immediately tried to pull his shirt down and cover himself, but the toy sticking to his hand made it difficult. Finally the changes stopped and the action figure fell to the floor, leaving Ryan at only ten years old. Ryan looked up at Sei with an expression of fear.
“Let’s try and find the two of you some clothes,” Sei said, leading the two children out of the playroom and back into the hallway.
