Have you ever heard of the book series called Animorphs? You know the one with the Yeerks, Andalites, and morphing powers? Did you ever stop to think about what it would be like if someone actually had that kind of power? Well that's what one man thought of. This man was a retired scientist named Dr. William Exley. Dr. Exley had been a successful scientist, one of the smartest people at the lab where he studied. Then one day, he just lost it. Exley began mixing explosive chemicals together, pulling fire alarms, setting off the fire-sprinkler systems, and countless other "accidents" that could have proven to be fatal to whoever was misfortuned to be there when it went off. After a few days of this, the Board of health decided that he was unfit to continue working in that type of environment. They forced him to retire and Exley reluctantly left.
After a year and a half of planning and stealing from his old job, Exley had built a lab in his basement that contained equipment for any type of experiment you could think of. His first project was the idea he had gotten after skimming through an Animorphs book; the first idea that his colleagues had ever turned down (not to mention laughed at): creating a solution that would give humans the ability to transform into any other species after acquiring it's DNA. Just like the book. As he got to work, showing off his new project to his colleagues was the only thing on Exley's mind.
Several months later at the beginning of the summer, Exley had finished the solution. He knew it was right because through his studies, it was determined that the finished product would be a deep shade of red and slightly carbonated. Since it was identical to cherry soda, Exley found four long necked glass bottles and filled each to the top with the bubbling concoction. He even added cherry flavoring so if anyone tried to steal it, it would give off the aroma of its disguise and the thief will pass right over it. Exley placed it in the refrigerator with the other drinks and went to watch television, congratulating himself on the achievement.
