Zach P.O.V

Finn: Zach c'mon dude wake up!

Y/n: you better wake up Zach or I'm not making anymore cookies for you

as soon as I heard that I immediately woke up

Zach: GAH!

Will: I cannot believe that worked

Zach: guys! I had an awful dream! the teacher told us we would have all our DNA fused with animals and Y/n wouldn't give me anymore cookies!

Y/n: that last part would never happen in a million years besides-

Mr. Ludwig: your DNA would only be fused with one animal not many

Zach: *sits up* wait! you mean that was all for real?!

Y/n: *sigh* yup

Will: very real, how are you feeling?

Zach: my head hurts, that was a lot to take in uh, I don't know

Y/n: no dip, it's expected for your head to hurt due to the information we just heard, it's only normal to be a bit...

Finn: shook?

Zach: oddly, yeah

Taylen: here drink some water, *Zach turns around* then we can ask questions and figure out more about this

I took the water Taylen gave me and slowly but swiftly started to drink it

Mr. Ludwig: alright, ask away

Taylen: does it hurt, like getting features and shifting?

Mr. Ludwig: it all depends on the features that link well together, for instance my beak took form because my appetite was mostly affected by the procedure, most students have ears tails or fins, due to the fact we're aiming to heighten senses and these attributes help with hearing and balance 

Will: and what about shifting?

Y/n: is it painful in anyway?

Mr. Ludwig: well shifting is hard to achieve and not everyone will be able to shift into their animal, if they are able to it will take years of practice and peace with your animal counterpart 

Finn: how does the procedure go down?

Mr. Ludwig: well I'm no scientist myself, but you'll be put into a machine with an IV like device and the machine will fuse your DNA with the isolated animal genes they picked out for you 

Zach: and you said we had 12 hours to decide 

Mr. Ludwig: yes because it is something we're presenting to the world and we want our breakthrough to get more cities and start advancing as quickly as possible, the more brains we have to this the better your lives would be 

Taylen: IF we do this, we can live here and be provided for but what about after we finish 

Mr. Ludwig: there are many options to choose from, and many more will show themselves over years but there are lots of internships in the lab and government offices we have lined up for graduating students, so there are amped to be accepted by their colleagues 

Y/n: can we see the dorms?

Mr. Ludwig: of course, Raven can escort you there

Raven: can wobbly legs even make it to the dorm over there without passing out 

Zach: hey, if you were given news like that and twelve hours to decide it might overwhelm you too  

Raven: well suck it up! I didn't even get a ch-
