Chapter #3
Project Venus is launched
by: Unknown
(At the missile launch site)
As the missile left the Earth the head security guard looked down to the bodies of the two men they had shot as he wondered.
"What have they done?" He said as he men tried to piece together what just happened.
"Sir!" One of his men called out looking at the missile's chosen target.
"What is it son?" The sergeant asked walking over
"Well sir...it's just...it's heading for the Sun..." The private said looking up confused
Walking over to the bodies of the scientists the sergeant searched them as he pulled out a small flash drive with a note written on it that simply said....
"Project Venus"
(Several hours later the missile reached its destination)
As the missile finally ran out of fuel it was as close to the sun as it could be as the device planted by the scientists triggered reacting to the solar radiation powering it. Falling off the missile the device opened itself as what would look like a huge net with special pink plastic in-between began opening out of it spreading outwards like a giant contact lens. It began spreading wider and wider until finally reaching it's full size as it began activating itself as the pink material began glowing doing it's job of filtering the Sun's radiation to the people of Earth.....
(Back at Aaron's house at the start of the story)
As Aaron listened to his father he couldn't help but sigh knowing it was true in his heart. As he turned around he was suddenly interupted by his father's voice.
"What the hell is that?" Joe said looking up at the sky
Aaron turned around seeing that somehow the sun had turned pink....Bright pink...no different than the color painted on countless nails of so many women back when they were around...
"Dad...Whats going on?"Aaron said as he felt strangely warmer for some reason...
"I have no idea sun but I don't think we should be outside..." Joe said taking his Son's hand and pulling him inside.
All over the world people looked at the pink sun which lasted an entire day of Earth's rotation as a full moon appeared that night giving off a pink glow as well. Aaron could help but go outside several more times during the day and night feeling warmer in the pink glow. Like a tingling all in his body he couldn't explain. Once the day had passed the device stopped working as the normal yellow sun rose the next morning.
In the morning Aaron woke up as usual as he looked outside his window and saw the normal bright blue sky and yellow sun.
"I guess it was a just a weird passing effect..." He thought to himself as he woke up brushing the hair out of his eyes...wait...WHAT?
Aaron normally has really short hair as he stood up and walked over to the mirror as saw his hair had grown overnight down to his ears...
"What the hell?" He said looking to himself as he looked down as saw his body looked normal except that his body hair had almost all fallen off over night. He saw piled of it in his bed as Aaron rushed to the shower trying to calm himself down.
In the shower as he scrubbed himself he saw chunks of his body hair just falling off...The more he wiped the quicker it fell off his body leaving nothing but pure smooth skin...Aaron's eyes widened as he looked down seeing how his body was now perfectly smooth like the day he was born .Save the now longer hair on his head which he could have sworn looked a bit longer now...
Stepping of the shower he looked at his smooth body wondering what could have caused this as he paniced for a minute realizing the pink sun...
"What if I have cancer now? Or something worse?" He thought to himself as he dried off feeling a slight stinging in his nipples. Looking down they seemed bigger than before and a bit swollen.
Getting dressed he wore a long sleeve shirt and pants to cover himself as he combed his hair as best he could to desguise it. Downstairs his father was eating breakfast like normal when he saw Aaron and smiled.
"Hey Dad?" He asked looking around
"Yeah?" Joe said looking up.
"You think that pink sun could have actually done something to people?"
"Who knows? We will have to see if was just a weird effect or something. My guess is it won't do anything. Hey you might wanna consider cutting your nails sometime it looks kinda girly no offense kiddo."
He said pointing to Aaron's hands as he looked down his hands which normally had barely kept and often chewed nails looked a bit smaller and the nails were a bit longer and looked almost kept.
"Oh...yeah...thanks.." Aaron said playing it off normally as he made himself a small breakfast not feeling as hungry right now. Not sure how to the handle this he wasn't quite ready to share anything with his father yet till he had an idea of what was going on.
"So what's your plan for today?" Joe said looking over to Aaron
Aaron looked back remembering he had made plans as he tried to remember them
