Mary began to act out of total desperation as she turned the box of vials over and started looking through all of them, hoping to find a vial that would give her the transformation that she was longing for.
“I need to grow!” she shouted. “I need to become bigger, stronger, faster… and more powerful! I need to drink more blood…. I need to conquer the WORLD!”
She finally found the rest of the mosquito vial and she removed the cap. She quickly placed the opening at her strange mouth and she drank all of it. Within minutes, she started growing bigger and bigger, changing more and more into a giant mosquito!
“No… Oh no… Mary… NO!” Todd screamed, seeing his beautiful, beloved girlfriend slowly turn into a horrible, big, ugly, monstrous-looking insect!
Out of utter despair, Todd scrambled and looked around the coffee table, where Mary had thrown all the vials around when she had opened the box and thrown everything out of it when she turned the box upside down. Then, he spotted a vial with a label that he was hoping to see. “Human”. YES!
He reached for the vial and removed the cap while Mary was still rummaging through the other vials, of which half had now fallen and rolled onto the floor. As soon as he got the cap off, he ran up to Mary and placed the opening of the vial right up to Mary’s mosquito-mouth. He tilted the vial upward, and with his other hand, holding the vial firmly against her mouth, forcing her to drink the entire contents!
“HEY! What are---GLOOG!” Mary gasped as she was forced to drink the contents of the vial, thanks to Todd!
When she was done, Todd pulled away, leaving Mary coughing and gasping for a moment.
“What… *cough*, *cough*,… What was that for?” Mary shouted.
Then, within just a few minutes, she begins to show signs of humanity again. Her mosquito-like form disappears as she begins to take on traits of humans again. Her face begins to transform from being insect-like to human as her mouth, nose, lips and eyes begin to normalize. Her neck, her shoulders and her arms and hands all revert back to normal as well. Her legs and feet and toes change back, and her torso now resembles that of a young woman again. The only things that remain out of the ordinary are her wings and her antennae, sticking out from the top of her head.
“There! Much better, huh?” Todd says, with a deep sigh of relief.
Mary turns around and looks in the mirror. She looks a lot more human now, although she did take notice of the fact that her wings seemed to be much smaller than needed in order for her to be able to fly.
“Well, it’s much better, but I’m still not human and I don’t think I’m able to fly with these wings!” she said, as she tried to make her wings flap. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t get off the ground.
“Look! Here is the address of the company that made the vials! Why don’t you go and pay them a visit?” Todd suggested, while holding up a small piece of paper that came out of the box which contained the vials. “You can become fully human again and maybe get wings that will make you fly for real!”
“Yeah! I think I’ll do that!” Mary cheered.
At least now she was hopeful that she could find a vial that would give her the changes that she had hoped for…
