Chapter Two: Friends

Back in the Arizona woods, Victor Stone searched around for the monkey. It was probably the only animal in the forest that possessed aleodoctrin, and the chances of finding it were slim. However, he was far more determined then any hospital worker would have been. He would find the monkey and get the boy the aleodoctrin. He had to.

After ten minutes of searching, he saw the little creature scurry past him. He ran after it, but it was much faster then he was. He soon managed to escape. He saw it twice more, and twice more he failed to capture it.

He then decided to set a trap for it, which was hard to do with his small amount of supplies. However, he managed to do it and finally caught the monkey and brought it back to the lab.

He barged into the medical room and layed the monkey down on the table. His surgeons began working on getting aleodoctrin out of him and soon managed to inject it into the baby. He would be perfectly fine after a few days.

Victor Stone called in a government agency who, after a good study with both Kristina and her son, recognized them as the Logans. Victor adopted him and named him Garfield Christopher. He and Little Victor became fast friends.

During the next two weeks, something starnge began happening to Garfield. His body started to lose its tan coloring and become green. When Stone Laboratories did some tests on him, they said that the aleodoctrin had effected him by making him turn green. Big Victor believed that there would be other symptoms. And he was right.

A little over a month later, Garfield and Little Victor were playing outside and stopped to look at the birds. They related to each other how they wished they were birds and could fly. Garfield wished very strongly that he would become a bird. And he did.

Garfield and Little Victor hurried to report the event to the latter's father, which resulted in even more testing. The Stones soon discovered that the aleodoctrin also gave him the ability to shapeshift into any creature - but he would always stay green.
