Steve, the 21 year old golden retriever, went back to his college dorm all bruised and scratched. He had another encounter with the jocks again. They liked to pick on him since his passion was science and was known to make crazy experiments. People actually called him a mad scientist. Steve walked to his bed reflecting on his life.
Steve really believed he needed to change in order for acceptance. He dreamed of having actually friends and actual girls liking him. Steve spent the day in his calculating on how to be accepted. His mind always went back to the jocks. They had all they anyone could dream of: fame, glory, popularity. Steve shrugged that thought out his head. There was no way he could be jock since he was puny and already had the reputation of a mad science geek. He then wished to himself, "If only I were bigger; then people would respect me."
At that moment, Steve's brain started making connections. Steve stood up putting facts, theories, and formulas togethermin his head. He grinned from ear to ear with an idea that could not just change him but the world. He ran out of his dorm across campus and made his way to the science building. He then ran downstairs into his personal lab that his science professor allowed him to use. Steve put on his lab coat and went to work.
Steve spent sleepless nights working with the thoughts he came up with and a design for a mechanical object: a nanobot. If he theories were correct, the nanobots would be able to infuse with a multi-cellular specimen giving it more muscle mass. Steve could have the power of a jock within seconds! He was so excited that he didn't get any sleep until the prototype was complete.
Steve finally finished the nanobots but wasn't sure if they were safe. So, he borrowed some lab mice from upstairs and began to test his theory. He got out a syringe filled with the nanobots and injected them into a mouse. At first, the mouse seemed fine. No difference in size was noticed. Steve slumped his head in disappointment. He was so sure that it would work. He needed it to work. However, his disappointment was short lived when he saw the mouse grow to the size of a large rat! Steve jumped for joy!
Steve was right! His life was no longer going to be filled with bullying and teasing. He now had to power to literally alter his life. Steve was over enthusiastic that he decided that it was enough testing. He rolled up his sleeve, got out another syringe filled with nanobots, and pushed them into his furry skin.
