Alexis's eyes opened slowly, his vision cloudy at first. The bright lights above him were blinding to his adjusting eyes, though as the pain of bright lighting faded and his vision became clear, Alexis noticed something very strange. He was startled to discover a change to his sight, new ultraviolet colors having been added from the photoreceptors which had grown, old colors now more vivid and distinct from the addition of polarised light. A more dramatic realisation then occurred as he looked down towards his hands, which had been strapped to his bed rails. On the back of his hands and extending up his arm was a red shell, which as far as he could tell covered his back as well. Alexis struggled slightly with his restraints, though to his surprise he was able to free himself without much effort, the straps having broken quickly from his enhanced strength. [Color=ff1493]"I need a fucking mirror to find out what the hell else is different..."[/color] Alexis mumbled as he stood. His eyes scanned the hospital-like room, locating two doors. He tried one, finding it locked, then moved to the other. As the door swung open Alexis found himself in a lavatory, staring himself in the mirror. The shell hadn't been the only physical change in his appearance, as he soon noticed. Upon his head, sticking out from his hair were two antennae. His eyes also looked different, as he now had three pupils in each of them and some kind of line going through the middle. On the sides of his neck had grown gills, four sits on each side. In a momentary fit of rage Alexis threw a punch at the mirror, not only breaking the glass though cracking the wall behind it as well. It wasn't long before the sound attracted unwanted attention, men and women in lab coats rushing into the room. Alexis made no attempt to harm them after seeing this new increase to his strength as he felt physically secure, and decided to hear them out as they explained everything. Alexis took a seat and thought about the changes as he listened. [Color=ff1493]"So basically, you screwed with a bunch of kids, and now we'll probably never be fully human again. Thanks a lot doc. Now am I free to go, or do I need to fill out some bullshit survey?"[/color] The sarcasm was heavy in his voice, and the nervous looking doctors let him through without a word. As he walked through the halls a laugh escaped his lips. He was finally strong like he had wanted to be, he could finally protect himself. Alexis opened the front door of the building and stepped out, looking over the ocean in front of him. [Color=ff1493]"I want crab..."[/color]
