I walk into my lab into my latest creation. It is as large as a shoe. The Grasshoppificator. It shoots tiny needles filled with small doses of serums able to fully mutate the victim.

I point the gun towards myself.

What are you doing?

I am helping us!

Zach you have gone too far!

Too far into greatness!

I said we were turning ourselves into Satan!

Ooh! But turning into a grasshopper is too far? Too late!

The needle hits me in the chest. I can feel it pump power into my blood. My eyes turn black, my lips grow into long, hard, sharp mandibles. My arms and legs grow out into long legs. Another pair rips out of my ribs. My bones dissolve and a hard shell coats my skin. I grow three times in height. My ears stretch out into large antennas. My hair burns away, my milky colored skin is slowly eaten away by green. My insides mush around. It was a painful transformation.

I jump out of the building, and I hop towards their base, followed by the rest of the hoppers.

This is not my revenge. It is theirs.

It is the Revenge of the Giant Grasshoppers.
