    Marissa's Wish

    The day before this had been very weird for Marissa. She had seen her best friend mutate in fromt of her. Although the change didn't make her friend, Jenna, look any worse it was still weird. Marissa was walking to school when she saw her friends in an alley. "Hey, Marissa! Come over here!" one of the guys said. She jogged over to them. "Help us out. We're almost done." Marissa looked at the wall. It had was and animal. it had the head of an eagle, the body of a lion, and the legs of a tiger. They still had to spray 2 legs.
    "No thanks. I gotta get to school."
    "Aw! come on. Don't be like that."
    "Man! I told you she was too much of a chicken." One of the other guys had said this.
    "I had a rough day yesterday. I really need to get to school. I really want to help, but I can't right now." She started to walk away. She walked past a driveway and saw Marcos, the janitor, getting into a car. "Hey! Marcos. See ya at school." She waved to him. "I just wish I was more of a badass." she whispered. Marcos ran over to Marissa and said, "You need a ride?''
    "Uh...sure." Marissa said. She got into his car. It was a red, old, and rusty truck. Marcos started the engine and backed up. He handed Marissa a cup. "What's this?"
    "Hot chocolate. It's good. My own recipe." Marissa started to drink. It tasted better than a normal hot chocolate. Then she felt weird. Her muscles began to grow. She looked like a bodybuilder. Her clothes ripped and cxame off. Even her breasts, which were now a little bigger, had muscles. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?" she said. Her voice sounded rougher and deeper. She opened Marcos's car door and jumped out. Marissa's name on the roll call would read ABSENT on that day.
