Cure
ElectricCircuslover: Just something I doodled up. Felt like making this with "Birkins Malformation 1 boss theme" inspiring me to do so.

The sun shined down on the town of Kokawa Town with little wind and clear skies. A black koala-like creature flew in the sky quickly with his large fleshy demon wings. On the ground, he was being followed by a feminine pink version of Shadow with long antennae while wearing a black book bag. Shadow flew over the jungle in hopes he would lose his older brother, Andy, who wanted to administer a cure for his mutation virus.
He dived down to the cliff and hoped Andy was too slow to find him. Changing invisible, he climbed down the cliff and let his sticky paws keep him against the rock, as he expected Andy to show up in the circumstance that he didn't lose him.
Andy ran though a bush, hopped on the bench, and hopped off it as he sniffed the air.
"Shadow! Shadow! I know you're here. I can smell your scent in this area. You can't hide from a fellow Experiment's nose!" the pink Born Experiment called out, walking towards the edge of the cliff.
Shadow detached from the rock wall and flew up into the sky while making himself visible. He glided around and stopped, keeping aloft as he looked down at his older brother, Andy.
"I didn't ask for this mutation virus but I've embraced it. I want to change the world, brother. Those humans that I infected will change into the monster they really are. No more pollution, no more deforestation, no more government cracking down on the people for injustices for the benefiting corporations. I can change all that with a simple scratch. Once more the inferior race will be back to the primitive way of life again and this Earth can slowly fix itself. Why can't you see that it's not bad to look like a monster? Earth wasn't meant for our race. This prejudice species see us as monsters or pets. Frankly I get tired of pretending I'm a dog to the general population. It's up to you if you want to stay on this mud ball with people that look down on us," Shadow growled, transforming into his real form.
"This race doesn't need your help! You're going to make it even worse for everyone on this planet. We are protected by the C.I.A and the government. They are helping us blend in. You have to give it more time, Shadow. Eventually we will be accepted as people too. You're only fueling the fire between the humans and the Experiments!" Andy bellowed, opening his back pack and pulling out a yellow blaster with green liquid in a capsule on the top of the gun, "These people are not as bad as you think they are. You've watched too much of the news which is a terrible way to learn about human nature. Please, let me give you the antidote and work this out with Cobra Bubbles. If you honestly feel society is moving too slow to adjust to our presence then maybe he can do something about it. Changing this planet denizens into reptilian monsters won't help you or anyone. Such an action will get the Galactic Alliance involved and make them believe we Experiments are too hostile for this planet. Just come with me and we can sort this all out."
"I don't want your cure!" Shadow screamed, firing a black beam from his mouth.
Andy grabbed his book bag and quickly dodged out of the blast of the black beam. The ledge broke off and came crashing down into the rushing water of the ocean below.
Shadow flew down, got on all-eight, and thrashed about in a fury in a temper tantrum.
Andy pulled the trigger and a dart came flying out towards Shadow, who vanished and reappeared in the same place still thrashing about.
"I will get my way Andy and not you or your puny gun will stop that!" Shadow bellowed.
Shadow's face opened up, splitting his head open vertically, revealing sharp pointy teeth surrounding the mouth in the inside. His body began to grow larger and larger as spikes attached to tentacles jutted out of the imitation Experiment's body while thrashing about wildly. The body of the creature became as long as a bus with its long reptilian tail splitting in the end into shorter tails with spikes on the tips. Eventually the arms grew from the both sides of his body, making him look like an insect with four hands at the end of each arm in a shape of a four leaf clover. Eyes opened up from all over his body before he let reptilian roar from his mouth.
As Shadow mutated into his full mutated form, Andy grabbed a syringe from his backpack and put it in the nozzle. He took aim and fired it at Shadow but the needle was unaffected against his thick reptilian skin.
"You…Won't…Change…Me…" Shadow said, spitting a web net at Andy and wrapping him in the net.
Shadow walked towards Andy and had one of his tentacle spikes positions to sting his brother and transfer the virus. Before he could poke him, Andy broke free from the net, grabbed the appendage and ripped it from Shadow's body and tossing it to the side.
The mutated beast screamed in pain at first but re-grew a new tentacle in its place. As Shadow was stunned from the pain, Andy grabbed his blaster from under Shadow and shot the needle into one of the eyes under his brother's stomach. Andy had triumphed in administering the antidote to his brother, who screamed in pain as he started to transform back into a small koala-like alien with large demon wings who cried in a fetal position.
"I'm sorry Shadow. It had to be done. Maybe we can get you into a youth group in hopes it will change your outlook on the human race. Humans are not all bad. You've only seen the bad ones," the pink B-X leaned over Shadow who cried clear tears.
"It was going to be perfect. I could've done some greatness to this planet. Now I can't help this world," Shadow whined.
"You can't fix the world but you can keep this island a paradise by recycling and picking up trash. As I said before, it's going to take awhile until humans accept us as a race. Just give it some time," the Angel replica, held out his paw, and helped Shadow get up.
"I'm pretty sure I'm going to get grounded hardcore by mom and dad," the black imitation Experiment whined.
"I can sweet talk them. Don't worry. Let's go home."
"Okay, Andy."
