Plot In a distant future... tensions between countries are high. The Japanese are in the first steps of developing animal-human technology for the sole purpose of allowing people to change their appearance for fashion trends and social status. But when the US gets wind of the project, they see a much bigger picture and steal it for themselves to advance the technology and create an army of super soldiers. Taking the blueprints and research for a prototype that was never built, they tweak and advance the technology until they come up with the first working experiment: a chair which-using a mixture of radiation and a special serum-changes the DNA of those who use it to give them the ability the morph into a specific animal. While some of the original scientists were killed upon retrieval of the research, some were captured and forced to help them develop the technology. The chair and Morphing Formula is created in a Top Secret laboratory, tweaking the original research to make the formula stronger, better, and more powerful. The laboratory and it's experiment is so secret in fact, that they couldn't risk a medical trial or telling people they've hired as lab rats the truth about their experiment. No, they have to be much more secretive... Twelve high school sophomore students get the opportunity of a life time when their science class-and only their class-gets to go on a field trip to a working laboratory. Little do they know, their science teacher Mr. Neil is one of the scientists working on the Animorph project and is using his job as a science teach as cover. And little do they know, they're going to become test subjects on the project. And if everything goes according to plan... they may be the first recruits in what the US hopes will be their new army of super soldiers. But the Japanese find out who took their research... and what they're using it for. Being one of the US's biggest enemies in this distant future, they realize Japan will be one of the first targets of the super army. So, the Japanese secret service burns down the lab and kills all the scientists they could find in the hopes of ending USA's attempt to create a super army and possibly take over the world... starting with Japan. As if the ability to morph into animals isn't enough for these twelve teens to handle, Mr. Neil has gone missing-leaving them to figure everything out for themselves and now they feel themselves being watched. By who? They're not sure... The reality? Japan discovers the experiment had already been started and have set out to hunt down and kill the test subjects while the USA is trying to recover them and use their blood to continue the experiments, because they're the only piece of the experiment that survived. And they're not the only ones to catch onto these teens... A rebel organization is watching them, deciding whether to kill them, help them, or try to recruit them. While working to figure out their new found abilities and trying their best to stay out of the crosshairs of these mysterious organizations, the biggest challenge of all may be deciding who they can trust... or if they can trust anyone at all. Communication The Animorphers have discovered they can communicate telepathically. They call this "thoughtspeak". It allows them to talk to each other in their minds whether they're in human form or in animal form. But only the Animorphers can hear it. Family members can't receive it and other animals are oblivious. Ability To Morph and Partial Morph When in transition and their DNA is changing... they may have issues with partial morphing such as getting animal fangs, eyes, claws, tails, etc... that they can't control as well as fully morphing against their will. Once the transition is completed... they will be able to control it better and can only fully-morph. They cannot enhance their senses (hearing, sight, etc...) while they're in human form. However, when emotions are heightened, they may have trouble controlling their new abilities and have some issues with glowing eyes, growling, claws and fangs coming through.

Okay, @LordZeus. Thanks for letting us know!

~~~

I finished with some stuff I wanted to get done and now have a bunch of time to post for Layla and Cole. However, as Layla is wrapped up in a storyline with Jinx right now, I was kind of waiting to see what happened with him before I posted for her. And as for Cole, I had an idea for his post, but it would sort of require Layla posting first. @TheFantasy14, did you want to show the Battle of the Bands at some point, or have them drop out of it due to... ahem... conflicts?

No worries, guys. I'm just trying to figure out where we're at.

I think the post I was thinking of for Cole, I'll put in the next round. So I'll try to come up with a post for Cole and submit it tonight or tomorrow. Thanks, guys!

Great post, @Nightcrawler! I loved reading it.

I'm going to start working on Layla's post. Did you want her to be at the hospital and talk to him about what happened, or have her just keep it to herself for a while?

@LeftyWriter thanks! It's up to you, but I think it would make sense for her to have followed him to the hospital, freaked a bit, then try to talk to him? Or you could have her freak out so much that she goes home, then corners him later at his house or at school to talk about it. It's really up to you and I have no strong opinion. I'm excited for your post!

But if anyone needs a 'cat' scan, it's Jinx.

I should have my post done by the beginning of next week. I'll most likely post on... Sunday? If that's okay.

Also, nice post @LeftyWriter!
