"I'm not just a high school teacher, you see..." Ms. Tomlin explain. "I've been working for the government for a while now. And they've been working on a project."
"What kind of project?" you asked.
"It wasn't originally supposed to transform people," she explained. "It was meant to be a type of super serum. It was meant to give humans the same abilities as animals. The strength of a gorilla, the speed of a cheetah, the night vision of owls. Unfortunately, there were some drastic side effects."
"You mean, it turned people into animals instead?" Lindsey asked.
"Exactly!" Ms. Tomlin replied. "The government tried to hide what happened during the first testing. Not even I know what happened exactly. But what I do know is that most of our test subjects went on strike or quit when they found out what was going on. The experiment has since been known as 'The Moreau Project'."
Ms. Tomlin trotted over to her desk and used her horse mouth to grab a photo from it. She then set it on the floor for you and Lindsey to see. There was a large group of scientists, including Ms. Tomlin.
"This is the team that started the project," she explained. "When we ran out of test subjects, we started testing it on ourselves. Including me."
"So is that why you're a horse?" Lindsey asked.
"Indeed, Lindsey." Ms. Tomlin replied.
"Then how did you become human again?" you asked.
"It's quite simple, really," Ms. Tomlin answered. "Before I tested it on myself, I attempted to create an antidote should anything go wrong. Though I wasn't able to reverse the effects permanently, I was able to create a serum that allows one to will themselves between forms."
"But why did you transform us?" you wondered.
"I've been experimenting with some formulas..." Ms. Tomlin began. "And since I got a job as a science teacher after moving, I figured, why not use it as a fun way of teaching biology?"
"Could you give us some of that serum to turn us back?" Lindsey asked.
"Oh, of course." Ms. Tomlin said. "Just let me change back. I can't very well use it while I'm like this." Right then, Ms. Tomlin began shifting back to her human self. "Just let me get dressed and I'll have you back to normal." You were a little disturbed at the sight of your teacher naked.
Ms. Tomlin walked into a closet and returned a moment later wearing a fresh pair of clothes, exactly the same as her old ones. She reached into her desk and grabbed a syringe containing a strange substance.
"Now hold still, this will only hurt for a second," she warned. With that, she injected you and Lindsey with the substance. You began to see your fur shrinking away and your hooves start to disconnect. Soon, you and Lindsey were both human again. You both attempted to hide your privates from each other.
"I'll get you some new clothes." Ms. Tomlin said.
Soon, you and Lindsey were properly dressed, still a bit disoriented from the whole ordeal.
"So... what now?" you asked Ms. Tomlin.
