Jasper shouted, his eyes crazed. He thought back to what had happened only days before, when the green liquid from the lab had fallen onto him and seeped into his bloodstream; he remembered how the liquid had healed his wounds, and how it had given him to possibility of turning back into his humanoid form. But, he knew that it he let out his blood onto Melanie, as well as the green liquid in his blood, he would turn back into a raccoon. Perminately.
