The next day a school, a gangly, dark-haired boy walked in, thinking to himself.
There are so many people in the world, but only one me. One person amongst many. I must make my mark here. And by that...I must lie about myself.
The boy's name was Antonio Perez, and he was mostly normal, if it weren't for the fact that his father turned into a big furry purple monster and got shot by a fart gun while he was frozen. He was also frozen when this happened.
Even before the whole incident, Antonio had a habit of lying. On his first day of third grade, for example, he poured water down his pants and said he peed himself to get out of gym class. In middle school, he lied about his uncle Juan being his real dad, because he didn't want people to know that his dad had "died" flying in a volcano.
And now, he was thinking about a strange, animal-like person who only came out at night. The first night after Antonio was unfrozen, it kicked a girl to the curb. The second night, he broke all the windows in a glass shop with his scream. Antonio highly doubted said creature was him, but he was still very interested.
He went to go speak with his uncle after school.
"Well, Antonio, they heard about this creature who's been roaming the streets at night. They say he's too human-looking to be a werewolf and too animal-like to be human."
Too human to be a werewolf, yet too animal to be a human thought Antonio.
"Brings a new meaning to the term, "The freaks come out at night," does it not?" said Michael J Fox. He was the scientist living with them who brought Antonio back to life after he was frozen.
Antonio looked quite uncomfortable, while Juan just rolled his eyes.
Antonio was hearing a voice somewhere. It was the voice of the creature.
Must be my imagination, thought Antonio to himself.
"Well, at least it didn't pee anywhere," said Michael.
"Mike...really?" said Juan.
Antonio went up to his room to do his homework.
This all started when he was found frozen by his Juan and Michael.
Michael built a machine to unfreeze things.
"Now this is a machine that can unfreeze anything. You accidentally leave something in the fridge, no problem! It'll unfreeze it!" he told Juan.
"Yes, but how does it work?" said Juan.
"Well, you adjust this deal for heat, then this dial for how long it will take. Then, you put the frozen thing in this space, press a button over here, and ta-dah! Un-frozen!" said Michael.
"Okay…" said Juan.
"You can't unfreeze stuff bigger than a cup of coffee for less than an hour, though. It messes up their, um...particles," he said.
"Okay, okay. My nephew really needs this. He's frozen over at my father's restaurant, he cheated on Gru's daughter, Gru's that kind of dad…"
"Okay, then. Hop into the Foxmobile! It can get us anywhere!"
(Literally, it could. Michael J Fox invented a car with a GPS that automatically knew where anywhere was.)
"Don't we need rules?" Juan asked Michael.
"Rules? Where we going, we don't need no rules!" said Michael.
When they finally got there it was empty. They used all their strength to push the machine into the room, then to get Antonio on the machine. (Juan was nowhere near as strong as his brother.)
They then adjusted a few dials.
"I just remembered something. Antonio can't miss his first day of school," said Juan.
"When is it?" asked Michael.
"Tomorrow."
"Wow. And your point is-"
"I want you to un-freeze Antonio as fast as you can," he told Michael. (He forgot about the time rule.)
"Yes, but-" said Michael.
"Do it!" said Juan.
So instead of thawing Antonio out in one hour like the instructions said, he thawed out Antonio in one minute.
Antonio woke up, feeling very wobbly.
"Where am I? And who are you?" he asked his uncle and Michael.
"Well, you were frozen after cheating on this guy named Gru's daughter. Then your dad turned into a big purple monster and went insane. Now I've just thawed you out. Oh, and I'm a children's scientist, Michael J Fox."
"Antonio Perez," he said shaking his hand.
"I guess taking a short time to thaw out isn't so bad." he told Juan.
"I'm not sure," said Juan, regretting his decision.
That night, the creature rolled out of bed. It was extremely pale, with bags under its eyes, and oddly-groomed, damp hair.
It was wearing an old-striped Zoot suit and an old-timey hat with a brim.
It then ran through the streets, seeing what kind of ruckus it could cause.
It found a 6-year-old walking with her family. He kicked her to the curb.
"Aahh!" she screamed.
'Ha ha ha!" he laughed.
He then went into a glass shop and broke all the windows with his scream.
The next night, Antonio saw his reflection in the mirror, then backed away.
The creature was none other than Antonio himself.
