You open the door to Dr. Marks' old office and find the gun lying right on his desk. You pick it up and look at all the settings, from "shrink" to "transform" to "grow." This is one hell of an object. Just to see how it works, you turn it to "shrink," fire it at the desk chair, and hold down the trigger. You let go when it shrinks so small that you can't even see it. With a smile, you get on your knees and look for it, and after a few moments of searching, you see a tiny red desk chair that couldn't be more than an eighth of an inch tall. You give some thought to growing it back for when the authorities inevitably find Dr. Marks missing and come into the office, but you remember your compromised position: if you get caught in here, you could get into a lot of trouble. You smile again as you think about how the gun could get you out of pretty much any trouble you have, but you'd rather avoid all that. You step out of the office, look both ways, and run down the hall to the exit. You leave the office without incident.
The office is on the outskirts of the city, and you head on over to the commuter rail platform to wait for the train to take you back to your suburban campus. At the station, you smartly duck into the men's room before you take out the gun again: taking out anything that looks like a gun in public is probably a bad idea. You wonder what you want to do with it. You could shrink a hot chick, or if you want to shrink a lot of people at once, you could find a bus full of people around here.
Then you realize that you might get a kick out of shrinking yourself in public and spying on people. But where would you want to go? You could shrink yourself on the train ride back home, or you could go back to campus to shrink yourself at the coffeeshop or library.
You look down at the gun, still amazed that you have all this power right at your fingertips. So what's the plan?
