"Did you hear? one student will be selected for the Dna splicing"
" Yea and if the student doesn't accept it they'll be kicked out"
Colby thought nothing of what he heard as he was walking down the halls of his dorm. He gets to his room and turns the key in the lock. He swings open the door, Drops his bag and throws himself onto his computer chair. He opens his laptop and opens google chrome. He checks his skype, Deviantart, Google+ and his Tumblr. His phone starts to ring. The caller Id shows "Felecia Doyle" Felecia and Colby have been friends since the second grade.
"Hey! Colby Cheese. You're Gonna Take me on a date. Right now. Starbucks. Pick me up"
"Why do you want to go on a date with me?" Colby moans through the phone.
"I was just trying to get your attention. I wouldn't date you in a million Years."
"Huh, Thats great to know" Colby days sarcastically "So what do you want then?"
"I wanted to talk about some stuff."
"what kind of stuff?"
"Just get to Starbucks"
"Fine!"
Colby grabs his keys and closes the door behind him. He walks down the steps, and turns the corner. He passes by a group of jocks and barely pays them any mind. He gets in his silver Jeep Patriot, and starts the car. He eventually reaches Starbucks. He walks into the cafe. He immediately see's Felecia.
"Im here. What do you want to talk about?" Colby says jokingly
"Stop playing around i'm serious. i'm worried about the dna splicing thing the school is doing. I heard they were gonna pick from a pool of students who has a 'free ride'".
"What the hell is that supposed to mean."
"The students that has scholarships, duh. The Committee thinks that they should pay their dues, and theres less than 30 of us in the entire school who has scholarships. So me and you are likely to be picked."
"Our dues? Thats crazy! Dont Be so be so paranoid Fe Fe." Colby continues to laugh "You need to get this off your mind. I gots da new Mario kart." Teasing Felecia. She finally caves in.
The two travel back to Colby's Dorm. They Open the door and turn on the lights. Sitting on Colby's desk is an envelope with gold trim. They both glance at each other. Colby goes over and picks up the letter. He hesitates to open it. He tears open the top of the letter. He pulls open the piece of paper and begins reading. Its a letter from the committee, saying that he has been selected for the DNA splicing. He will report to the Infirmary at 4:00am Tomorrow Hes allowed to bring only one guest but no more. Colby gives the letter to Felicia to look over. They talk a while about it. Felicia agrees to go with him. She stays with him in his dorm for the night. Comforting him, not knowing what's gonna happen.
The alarm goes off a 3:30. They both get ready and walk to the infirmary.
"You know what FeFe?"
"What?"
"I enjoy late night walks like these" They said nothing else until they got to the Infirmary. When they got to the front desk. Colby showed the receptionist the letter. She Personally escorts them to a regular room. In the room Colby signs some paper and lays down like the nurse instructed. The nurse sedates Colby. Right before he falls asleep, Felicia Waves goodbye.
A couple of hours later. The patient begins to wake up.
"Heeeeyyy Buddy how ya feeling" Felicia asks " Wow Col- I dont even know what to call you now."
"What did they do to me" The patient asks.
"Lets just say i'm a 95% sure you're not gonna like it one bit."
"I need a mirror."
"you need to calm down, your DNA Has just been re-arranged"
"No I need a mirror." The patient begins to remove the IV from its wrist. The patient stumbles to the bathroom. Looks up at the mirror and Lets out a slight high pitched scream
"What did they do to me! My voice!?! I'm a girl!" She exclaims.
A nurse walks in. "Ahh look Who woke up. I Hope you're enjoying your new body."
"I'm not at all in the least bit! Change me back now!"
