Stephen put his hand on the authorization pad which makes a beeping noise when it's done verifying his identity. He doesn't even read what he's authorizing. He's tired of answering questions. It's time to help an endangered species!
"Well, that's it," said the scientist. "By the time you and I are finished here, there will be at least one more lion in the world."
Stephen smiles. The scientist continues, "Well, let's get you out of those clothes. One injection and you're going to be a lot bigger and a lot differently shaped."
Stephen takes final look at his favorite outfit. He wanted to wear it one last time before becoming an animal, so he did. But he'll give up anything to help the rapidly disappearing animal kingdom. In less than 10 seconds, the garments are gone from his form. He cringes noticeable in shame--not embarrassment at his nudity, so much as his embarrassment at his humanity. This weak, defenseless organism his current body is has undeservedly taken over the world. The great lions, the mighty elephants. Majestic whales. Even with belated habitat protection measures and Kibry's animal remodeling program, they might all be gone within a decade. Either way, Stephen wouldn't have to wear this shameful human body for another day, and he was glad of that.
A chime rang out from the scientists tablet. "Oh, Stephen, it looks like you've accepted by the African Union Wildlife Reserve Network Breeding Program! They have enough lion studs and desperately need fertile wombs, so we are going to be transforming you into a lioness."
"Oh, a female? You mean, I'm going to be giving birth?"
The scientist shifted uneasily before replying, "I hope that's okay. It was always one of the options, and I'm afraid it's too late to change anything, so--"
"It's better than okay. I got into this to increase wildlife numbers, and it looks like I'm going to be directly bringing them into the world!"
"All right then, let's get you injected."
A clear tube in a metallic wall dispenser filled up with green glowing liquid. The scientist grabbed it in it was finished, inserting it into a syringe-like device. The needle was inserted directly into Stephen's belly button but he did his best to hold still. When the liquid was completely drained into his body, his fate was sealed. "I'm going to be a lioness. Making more lions," he muttered with some awe. All that was left was to wait for the change.
