"Ugh... my head," said Steve groggily. He had a splitting headache, and his vision was blurry. As he tried to rub his eyes, he realized he couldn't move his hands. As he took inventory of what his current situation was, he noticed that his wrists, waist, ankles, and neck were fastened securely by leather straps in a chair. He could tell there was something covering his head, he could feel the cool metal on the bald spot on the back of his head.
He quickly sobered up after this realization, a slight adrenaline rush brought his vision back to normal. He looked around and saw that his family were all in a similar position as him. They were strapped into similar chairs, with stainless steel caps on all of their heads. "Janet! Wake up!"
"Uggghhh.... Steve, what happened?" Janet said with confusion.
"Honey, I don't know, but we're in a very compromising situation... What's that?" Steve said after hearing the long creek of the large wooden door from behind.
"I see you are all starting to come to. I'd like to thank you for your participation in our little exercise this evening. Allow me to introduce myself, I am Professor Von Strasser, and this is my humble abode. I hope you all find yourselves comfortable for the time being."

Allow me to elaborate. What I have developed here is a way to relocate a specific human psyche into another transportation unit. Or, in other words, I am able to take the soul of one person, and allow it to be exchanged with the body of another. Do you follow me? This will change the human race!"
"You're mad! We want no part of this insane asylum!" Screamed Steve.
By now, the entire family was awake and looking quite frightened.
"It seems you have no choice, and now, without further adieu or anymore delay, let's get to work!" Von Strasser said, as he pulled a giant metal level connected to what looked like a computer from the 1960's, which was shabbily attached to all of their chairs by some flimsy looking wiring.   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
