A/N: HAHA! You thought I was going to leave you with THAT TINY THING! WELL YOU ARE WRONG. THANK ME LATER.
This is it. The day we go into action. The day we go save Lynn and destroy the serum once and for all. That sounded like one of those cliché lines you would hear in a movie.
Professor Nunes had me wear some of Lynn's clothes that she left being washed in the laundry. It was a little roomy, since she's two years older than me, but it would work. I put my hair in a high ponytail, just like Lynn. Professor Milora, Professor Nunes, Mr.Elmer, Will, Hunter, and I all headed outside to the Hippoplum Metro where Mr. Elmer was going to fly us to EOPA, where Dr. Anderson and Dr. Jones are keeping Lynn and the serum.
Mr. Elmer started the engine but then Mrs. Elmer came running out.
"Wait! Don't leave yet!" she yelled. She went on the bus and gave Mr. Elmer a big hug and then handed him a small bag.
"I packed you a small bag full of essentials in case you stay overnight such as a pack of oreos, a tennis ball for when you turn into a dog and want to play fetch, some clothes, a SpongeBob electric toothbrush, and your favorite stuffed animal that you can't sleep without," she said.
"Okay um... thanks honey. I appreciate it," Mr. Elmer said blushing.
"No problem," replied Mrs. Elmer kissing him on the forehead unaware that she just humiliated him in front of everyone sitting on the bus. The bus doors shut and the Hippoplum Metro began flying and Mrs. Elmer became smaller and smaller as you looked out the window. I looked over at Will in the opposite seat and he somehow managed to already fall asleep.
"So. Can I see your stuffed animal?" Hunter asked smirking. Mr. Elmer shifted uncomfortably in his seat and didn't say anything.
Do it, Hunter mentally said. I nodded knowing exactly what he meant. I slowly levitated Mr. Elmer's bag towards us. I opened it and pulled out the stuffed animal. It was a little hippo with buttons for eyes and a little bead sewn on for a nose. You could tell it was old and that it ripped many times because there was patches all over its body. Hunter just burst into a fit of giggles at the sight of it, causing Will to wake up with a startle.
"Horace. You still have that old thing that I gave you so long ago," Professor Milora said.
"Yes, Aunt Ingrid," he said cheeks blazing.
"SHE'S YOUR AUNT," all three of us said.
"Great-aunt," Milora corrected.
"But you look young enough to be his aunt," Will said.
"Oh do I? Thank you. I knew that Olay age-defying wrinkle cream would work." Um.
"We're here!" Mr. Elmer announced.
"YAY!" screamed Hunter like a little girl. Professor Nunes just shook her head in disapproval.
"Okay, we shall hope this plan will turn out the way we hope," said Nunes.
"Remember guys. If anything happens I will screech super loud and we'll all come immediately back to the Hippoplum Metro," Mr. Elmer said changing into a mockingbird and then flying on to the roof.
"Okay Ms. Grace. Are you ready?" Professor Nunes asked. I took a deep breath and nodded, too nervous to speak. She closed her eyes for a while and began to sweat. Then she opened and looked at me and gasped and cursed under her breath. I looked down at myself but I looked the same.
"OH MY GOSH WHAT HAPPENED TO ASPEN!" Will shrieked. Nunes shot him an annoyed look.
"I may have er- messed up a little on your appearance. I got Lynn's hair and height correct but your face didn't change-"
