Pre-More Chill

Squip Zone.

Over two months, Richard snuck enough money away to get to $600. Now, it was mid November.. Richard was getting ready to go to the mall that day, his dad was at work so he'd be safe to just walk.
'Okay, Richard..' he thought to himself. 'Go to Payless... get the squip.. take it. It's simple, don't draw attention to yourself.'
..
As he made his way to the mall he soon ended up at Payless. He walked in and to the back like the instructions had said, walking over to a figure and whispering, "are you.. wolverine?" He asked. The man turned to rich, looking him up and down as he whispered, "yea. You got the money, kid?" Richard nodded, pulling out $600 and slipping it over to him.

"Now. This is untested technology! It's from Japan, a super computer disguised as an oblong pill. It's illegal so you didn't get it from me." Richard nodded and left. Hearing the man shout faintly, "Activate with Mountain Dew, deactivate with Red!-'' Soon, Richard arrived at the food court and went over to a vendor and bought some mtn dew. He took a seat and popped the pill in his mouth, washing it down with the soda as he waited, and waited...
and waited.
Nothing!

He sighed. Groaning as he rested his chin on the table. "Great. I got scammed by a shoe store worker and my pa's gonna kill me." Shock! Richard yelped a bit, owww... what  the...? Target inaccessible! Please remain calm. Shock! That got another Yelp out of the boy. This was really starting to hurt..
Calibration in process. Please excuse some mild discomfort.
Mild?! Shock! Shock! Shock' shock!!
That really got Richard screaming. He was holding his head in pain as he teared up, screaming out in pain as more and more people stared.
Oh god.. oh god oh god.. everyone thought he was weird?! He'd be sent away?! Like— like that boy a year ago!-
Calibration complete. Access procedure initiated
Richard finally stood up, smiling nervously  as he looked around. "S—sorry! I,,, I get chronic migraines,,,!-" he nervously sat back down as the voice came back. Discomfort level may increase!
Rich yelped again as the shocks stopped and the pain slowly faded, a female voice now saying,
Accessing neural memory
Accessing muscle memory
Access procedure complete
Richard Goranski, welcome to your Super Quantum Unit Intel Processor
Your SQUIP
Richard looked up.. staring in amazement as he rubbed his eyes. "..whoa... you look like... m-my,,," he paused. "Your mother. I can also look like Britney Spears, Sailor moon, Kermit the frog, and Keanu reeves." Richard turned a faint red and said, ",,,,this is fine!!-" the squip looked him up and down, frowning as they began to speak once more,
"Okay. You have a lot of work to do. So, we'll start simple. Today, no more going by Richard. You're now RICH. And second, getting you new clothes. Let's start simple for now. Later you can start working out and get a bit more done."  Rich nodded, walking along the stores.
He ended up going into a few different ones.
Getting a striped shirt and some camouflage clothes. Getting a long sleeve shirt he'd be forced to cut into a tank top and a few more things
His squip has even made him get ear gaps put in.
He was pretty sore by the end of the day..
