Created page with '=== Prelude === ''August 17th, 2002, 5:30 AM'' I woke up. After maybe a few minutes, I got up and looked at the mirror in the corner of my small bedroom in a small apartment in …'

New page

=== Prelude ===
''August 17th, 2002, 5:30 AM''
I woke up. After maybe a few minutes, I got up and looked at the mirror in the corner of my small bedroom in a small apartment in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and saw fur. "What am I now? A fox in a human disguise?" I said. I rushed the whole rest of the morning.

=== Out in Cambridge ===
''6:30 AM''
I groaned as I saw the Charles River. Another LOOOONG day of Chemistry. On the trip, my head became much itchier, but I hadn't checked the progress of my fur, other then when I saw it on my arms. My friend Andrew, who I called A, said "Hey, Tobie, why are you so late?"

"HOW MANY TIMES have I had to tell you to call me Tobies? Besides, when was it not school-legal to be slightly late?" I said.

"You're late by a half hour. Hurry up, or you'll miss Chemistry."

The rest of the day went by, other than lunch. I have always had a problem with school lunches, not because of the quality, but because of the noise. My fox-hearing only made it worse.
''11:03 PM''

"EVERYBODY, SHUT- SHUT UP!"

"Whoa, Tobie, why the intensity?" A said, startled.

"What? You never noticed all the OTHER hundreds of times I pl-"

"I did, but this one is louder."

"Maybe that's because it IS louder?"

"I'm fine. Maybe you can just hear better."

I'm sure everyone ELSE noticed. I thought.

=== Inquiry ===
''2:32 PM''
When I got home, I checked the fur's progress. It was all the way down my legs, covering my feet, with only a few toes uncovered. It was growing each second. After that, I checked the days... August 17th. (Note: August is the end of the school year for Tobies. Likewise, school starts in December.) I struggled to remember the events of the 16th. Chemistry... Lunch... I then remembered some quirk called the August Flu that I read about on the Internet. After I read the page, I felt sick, and quickly went to bed.

After done with the details, I went on IRC and talked to A.

''<Vulpes> Hey, A, did I look different today?

''<AR> No. Different like what?

''<Vulpes>A fox. Have you ever heard of the August Flu?

''<AR> The kind around the 17th? Yes.

''<Vulpes> I came down with it.

''<AR> Sad. Wait, why do I feel itchy?

2:33 PM
''<Vulpes> A symptom on the 17th.

''<Vulpes> I'll send you a pic.

A click. A flash.

''<SYS> PicFMe sent to AR.

''<Vulpes> View it.''

(pause)

''<AR> Why the hell is there a fox at the computer?

''<Vulpes> Vulpes. Get it? I only signed to IRC only today.

''2:34 PM

''<AR> So what now?

''<Vulpes> Look in the mirror, or your webcam if you're so inclined.''

(pause)

''2:35 PM

''<AR> Why the hell do I have cat eyes- No, now there's fur...

''<Vulpes> By the end of today there will be... Lemme check...''

(pause)

''<Vulpes> 32,768.

''<AR> Of what?

''2:36 PM

''<Vulpes> Us.

''<AR> Uh... Wil anyone notice?

''<Vulpes> *Will

''<Vulpes> Shedded hair, footprints, odor... Anything but the body. They can feel the tails, but they soon forget.
''<AR> Are there others at MIT?

''2:37 PM

''<Vulpes> AFAIK, No.

''<AR> Can it... uh...

''<Vulpes> No. Can not be cured. Ima gonna leave now.

''<AR> Bye.''

I logged off, sighing.
