This choice: Michelle Anderson, your science rival • Go Back... Your rival in science, self proclaimed, "Professor," Michelle Anderson leaned back against a metal pod as she watched a computer monitor. Displayed on the screen, in beautiful 1080p, was a surveillance of your garage, the body switching machine front and center. Quietly, the scientist waited, until you finally left the garage to seek out a bed. "Excellent," Michelle said to herself, standing up straight and rushing over to her work bench to shuffle through her notes. "He finally completed his machine..."
You first met Michelle at a scientist's convention in the city. Until you came along, she had been one of the youngest and most accomplished minds in the field of "Broad Scientific Innovation," at a mere 22 years old. Her first impression was to take you under her wing, perhaps make you her assistant or partner, but she quickly realized that you were on her level, or perhaps even higher. Instead of working together, she decided she needed to destroy you. Your lab, your garage, was totally bugged. You couldn't build a toaster without Michelle knowing about it, and attempting to either sabotage or one-up you.
And on the same evening you completed your body swapping machine, Michelle had completed hers. It worked almost exactly the same as yours, but she'd secretly installed a link between her machine and yours. You didn't know it, but so long as both machines were operational, a bodyswap could be performed between people in the pods of opposite machines
Michelle finished recording her notes, and looked over the machine in front of her. You'd gone to bed, but Michelle was wide awake. She would test hers out before you could test yours. She'd been so concerned with beating you, though, that she hadn't even considered who she would actually use the machine on. ![](https://images.Writing.Com/imgs/writing.com/writers/info/interactive-1.png) | Members who added to this interactive story also contributed to these: |
