Cyus was walking on the path in the forest, on the bi-yearly camping trip, which coincided with a meteor shower! Sadly, due to circumstances outside his control, all the friends he invited to join were turned into squeaky drones and couldn’t come along, but the nature’s too interesting to not go into! Plus, he already paid the insurance for the campsite and it was too late to back out.

When he arrived at the campsite 5 hours late, the meteor shower was happening that he wanted to watch the entirety of, but hey, at least he got to see some! Hey, look, that’s a big one, heading right towards the campsite! Wait-

The meteor crashes down, within a mile of the campsite! Wanting to investigate the crash site (and most likely snag some CHEAP meteorites instead of paying more than 50 dollars), Cyus set out to go investigate it. When he arrived, though, he realized that this was no ordinary meteorite, due to the metallic structure and the strange green glowing rock inside of the metallic structure. Compelled to touch it despite the blatant radiation, Cyus inched closet, giving it a slight poke.

Upon contact with Cyus’s flesh, the “rock” became a sort of liquid, covering his hand in a strange grey sheen, coating his fingers and sticking them together. Of course, this would be distressing to anyone, including Cyus, so his first reaction was attempting to rip off the goo with his other hand. Which worked! Right up until it started spreading on his other hand, with the goo on the hand he ripped it off from dripping onto his pants and shoes before recovering swiftly, making his whole exercise pointless.

As Cyus continued to struggle against the now rapidly spreading goo, creeping swiftly up his arms, he noticed a strange feeling of phantom limbs upon his head, despite never having any limbs on his head before. As the goo slid over his elbows, the strange phantom limb feeling grew more prominent in his mind. As he attempted to pull the goo off his arms once again, his hands, which had been made into nearly useless rubber mitts by the goo, squeaked against it with not much help in the way of getting any of it off.

The goo on his legs became more prominent, spreading across his knees and swiftly covering his feet, continuing to spread more and more up and down his legs. The grey, squeaky look of his limbs caught him off guard, as he continued to try and struggle against them, as it continued to fail. The feeling of the goo on his limbs were... strangely exhilarating, but he needed to get it off before he couldn’t anymore (though it might be a little bit too late for that, sadly). Despite the futility, Cyus still struggled against the goo, as it spread over his shoulders, now approaching his chest and his neck.

As the goo spread up his hips and down his chest, it simultaneously crept up his head, as a “bubble” of sorts started forming to prevent his squeaky mitts from batting the goo off, as a green colouration began to spread upon his head, as a tail began to form from his tailbone. The feeling of the tail, combined with the near-lifelike feeling of the phantom limbs mixing with the goo coating his head, was hard to comprehend, though it continued to happen anyways, covering his mouth and his nose.

The tail, on the other mitt, was gradually growing still, sticking out of the strange silvery suit he was now stuck wearing. As the bubble around his head completed, the goo covered his eyes, before swiftly completely covering his head with a strange, technological “bwip!”. He tried to touch his face, but he couldn’t, as his tentacles oddly grasped around. He didn’t have much control over them, not yet, but he could still feel both of them. Quite the weird feeling, having far more limbs than just the four he was used to.

Cyus started to stumble away from the asteroid, every step making a squeak. At the same time, the segments on the silvery suit became more defined, some sections sticking out more than others. Seems he’ll be stuck like this for a while, hopefully nothing else happens to him!
