Changed: Deep

Chapter 5: In depth observation

[Scott's Pov]

Day 2. I am able to stand on my two hind legs now. I found one of the storage rooms close to my office, and it contained pillars of boxes stacked upon each other. I carefully reached for a box stacked on one of the smaller columns and put it on the floor. I used my sharp claw to cut the taped box, and gently opened it. Inside is a medium sized mirror to be hung up on a wall. I can use this to easily look at myself and observe the changes.

I carried the medium sized mirror on my arms, walking into my office before approaching an empty wall next to my computer. I carefully sat the mirror against the wall before reaching for a can of paint beside the table where my computer is set up. Doctor K left the can of paint in the small room with the giant metal door. He managed to repair the malfunctioning giant metal door, and the card reader is replaced with a button. Using my claw, I pried the lid of the can. Inside the can of paint is not paint, but rather a white latex substance.

This must be the same paste he was using to cover up the hole in the subway station. I carried the can of paint on my arms and placed it on the floor before I got to work. I gently pushed my left paw into the can of latex paste, grabbing a pawful of the latex paste before tossing it to the empty wall. A portion of the wall is now covered with a splat of white latex paste. I carefully spread the latex paste with my right paw evenly. I held the medium sized mirror with my white latex covered paws and pressed it on the wall covered with white latex paste.

I slowly let go of the mirror, and the mirror is now in place.

Day 3. The visor of the Protogen is actually cool! I have been observing and studying it since yesterday. An LED lights up within the visor that acts as a facial expression and features. I looked at the mirror, and a tall handsome looking Protogen looked back. I see green LEDs emitting light through the visor that makes up as my face. Two green LED eyes, two green LED dots that acts as my nose.

I see a green LED wavy line that acts as my mouth, but what's fascinating about it is how it forms to shape a maw. I curiously attempted to open my muzzle, and the visor formed to shape an opening with black sharp razor like canine teeth. The detailed lists of materials presented in the image through the monitor did mention that the visor is made out of nanites, but now I doubt about it. Is it even the nanites that I've put within the visor, or is it the transfurmation's doing?

With my muzzle opened, I see maw deep within. A very long tongue, and a throat. My maw is oddly colored black. I closed my muzzle and I walked over to a table filled with metal scraps, then held a metal bar with my right paw. I held it close to my visor and opened my muzzle before biting onto the bar. I bit down on the metal bar hard enough to test my jaw strength, but not too hard to break the metal bar into two. I moved it away from my muzzle before noticing the canine bite marks on the metal bar. I was able to bite on the metal bar. A human teeth would be broken already. My jaw strength is amazing.

Day 4. My abdomen rumbled, and I can feel the stomach of my Protogen body growl. I took one of the Blue Apples from the Hydroponics and held it on my paw. The Blue Apple appeared to be slightly bigger than it's predecessor. I opened my muzzle and held the Blue Apple close to my face, taking a bite down on it. I chew on the Blue Apple with my black maw like visor. I stood in front of the mirror as I chew on the food.

The green LED representing my mouth even moves along my chewing on the food. I gently swallowed the chewed up food, and I feel it move down my throat. I confirm that the Protogen has a digestive system, but I wonder how do they excrete their wastes.

Day 5. I ran down the halls today to test out the agility and endurance of my new Protogen body. My modified hind legs did a great job on helping me run, and it tire slower than my human legs. I stood in front of the window after my exercise, and I see myself panting. A facial expression glow from my visor of me panting.

This new Protogen body contains a lot of power, but I fear that this body may require a lot of food consumption. The descriptions from the image shown on my computer screen did mention that a Protogen is 40% artificial, and the rest of the body is biological. I assume that the power needed is from my digestive system. I raised my paw in front of the mirror, folding the digits in and out. I raised my Protogen tail to my right side, and I held it close to me with my arms.

I began to brush my tail with my paws, gently rubbing the fur and focusing mostly on the tip of my tail. This feels nice, awkwardly too nice. I feel my arms slightly warm from my actions. The Protogen visor staring at me behind the mirror is smiling. A set of green LED lines appeared just above my snout and below my green eyes. Am I... Blushing? A big white Protogen blushing from tail brushing? I let go of my tail, and it immediately wagged in joy, as if excited.

I feel somehow flustered and embarrassed. I can't control my tail! I looked at the Protogen reflection on the mirror, the blush on the visor now significantly brighter. How do I make this Protogen body calm down?!
