Escape with the raygun

added by Buzzbuzz 16 years ago O

"Make sure you have it on 7!" the tiny Dr. Hurley bosses you.

You inspect the raygun, making certain it's set on 7, but when you look back, Dr. Hurley is gone. "Victoria?" you ask.

You hear no response exept for a slight gulping sound, then look and see Sylvia, the now duck-size anthropomorphic duck-billed dinousaur, swallowing the last of two mouse-sized human feet. "Mmm..." says Sylvia. "Bite size." She runs over and begins to peck your toes but you kick her away.

Dr. Hurley was right. Sylvia really was psychotic.

Of course, you want to rescue her, but a place like this with government connections means there's nowhere you could really rescue her to. After all, you're just a recent high school graduate--how on earth are you going to reverse dinosaur gene therapy?

About the best you can do is leave her and hope that someone with more sanity and ethics than Dr. Hurley will take over her case.

Then there's yourself. You've got a growing-shrinking ray which they'll probably think Sylvia ate along with the doctor. You go and grab the forms you filled out and wrap them around the gun.

"Why is everything so big?" Sylvia asks, wandering over.

"I don't know," you lie. "Let me go find out."

You slip out the room with the key card, shutting the tiny dinosaur woman inside, then simply proceed back to the lobby.

The red haired receptionist is there. "Back so soon? Didn't you find Dr. Hurley?"

"Yeah," you say, "but this paperwork is kind of complicated and she said she had some other patient to see. She asked me to come back tomorrow when she had more time to explain it all." You pause, then add, "She said something about 'Sylvia acting up.'"

"Sylvia?" echoes the receptionist. "Oh dear." She signals to the guards and says, "Go help Dr. Hurley." She then looks to you. "We'll see you tomorrow then. Come bright and early and we can start the tests."

"Sure," you lie, then walk straight out the door with your file and the ray gun.

You're eighteen years old with a ray gun that can shrink and grow people, but no one knows you have it except an insane dinosaur. What are you going to do?
