Beelzemon: Well here we.

(Then a five note, four-scale song is heard, and Blues warps in.)

Beelzemon: . Let me guess. you heard about SSG'S prank.

Blues: I came here so you could tell him it wouldn't have worked anyway. That, and I left my shield here. (Picks up shield.) Ciao.

(Blues leaves.)

Forte: . oh. Anyway, shouldn't you get the next chapter up?

Beelzemon: Oh. Right.

Chapter 4 - Change of the body and the soul.

"Geez. He's heavy." Bit noted.

"Quit complaining and help get him into his bed." Brad told him.

"Bit has a point though." Naomi said.

They were dragging Alex to the room where his bed was. It wasn't easy. His claws occasionally caught on the carpet, and as Bit said, he was rather heavy.

"On three, lift. one, two, THREE!"

They lifted him up, and got him onto the bed. They were surprised how he could sleep through all that.

"Ow. my arms." Bit moaned.

They had returned to the living room, and Bill was awake now.

". What happened?"

"We found Or. um. Alex. asleep in the hallway, so we hauled him back to his bed." Naomi said.

"But he changed more. boy he was heavy." Bit added.

Bill decided to look for himself.

Alex woke up. He stretched his aching muscles, and sat down on the bed. He noticed how much he changed. By this point, his tail was fully formed.

"Oh no."

Alex sighed. He was most likely stuck. He then caught scent of something. It was reptilian, and yet human. Alex prepared to pounce. The door opened.

"AAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Alex had pounced, knocking Bill flat on the ground. Alex growled at him, unsure if he was friend of foe, or even if he was human.

"HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Alex froze. He recognized the voice, despite the alterations in it. It was one of the scientists from the Bio-dome. Bill. Alex saw what his 'safety measure' had done to him. Alex got off of Bill, went back into the room, and locked himself in. Alex sat down on the floor. He didn't know if he was more of a beast now, or when he was working on his experiments.

"WHAT HAPPENED?????"

Everyone heard Bill shout for help. They had come to help, but found Bill trying to catch his breath.

"He.{Huff Puff} pounced on me."

"He WHAT?????" Bit asked.

"I'm worried. {Huff} about his sanity."

Alex heard every word. Bill wasn't the only one worried. Then Alex thought about it.

'Wait. I'm not edgy about the humans. about the PEOPLE out there. Maybe it was just an instinct of sorts. The insight I'm getting now that I'm transforming.'

Alex felt he was right. He hadn't tried to attack anyone human. He unlocked the door, but sharp pain stopped him from opening it.

"AAAAAAUUUUUGGGGGHHHH!!!!"

His whole face felt like it was beaten. He collapsed to the floor as those outside came in. He became unconscious as he felt his mouth change.

Alex was a little tired of falling unconscious so much. Then he remembered that if the pain in a person becomes too great, they might fall unconscious. He woke up, and his face felt numb for now. Yet it also hurt a great deal. He was going to have to take aspirin or Tylenol. He noticed the time. 1:43 a.m.

'Perfect.'

He got up, and headed toward the smell of food. He wasn't going to eat anything though. He stumbled a bit before he shifted his posture. He noted that his new tail completely shifted his center of balance. When he got to the kitchen, it was empty. Not dark though. Despite the lights being off, he could see clearly. He looked around for some form of painkiller. He found Tylenol. He took out two pills, and got a glass of water. He nearly drowned himself trying to drink it. He wasn't surprised. His face was still somewhat numb. He also wasn't surprised that someone heard him, and came in to investigate. He had coughed a lot.

"What's going on in here?" Jamie asked.

"{COUGH! COUGH!!!!}"

Alex couldn't answer. He was still trying to catch his breath. Jamie got his answer from the Tylenol, and the glass of water.

"Oh."

Alex then regained his breathing control.

"{Cough} What happened? {Cough!!!}"

Jamie got a straw.

"Try this."

Alex arched an eyebrow. or where one would be. Then he carefully took the straw, and tried using it to help. He couldn't get any suction until he pressed his tongue around the straw. Still, he didn't get water up his nose, and he actually got the medicine down.

"Thank you."

Jamie then walked Alex over to a mirror. Alex was confused until he looked. His nose and mouth had become part of a still developing muzzle.

Spy Guy: HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Then Forte nails a bull's eye on his giant target. Then Spy Guy's eyes water, and we see that Spy Guy is tied to the target, and his groin is over the bull's eye. Forte is throwing horseshoes.)
