You spend the next ten-twenty minutes in Scotty's warm denim pocket. Your best pal doesn't wash his clothes as often as he might, so it doesn't exatly smell like a bed of roses in his cramped jeans pocket, but the scent of Scotty's B.O. is atleast something familiar, and it's oddly comforting in this vulnerable time. You stay curled up in the corner of his pcket, leaning against the wall of denim which is warm with Scotty's body heat, waiting for him to meet with this science whiz he has arranged to talk to.
Finally, a few giant fingers startle you as you're fished out of the pocket and umped on a cold bench in the science room. "Here he is." Scotty says to another thin, pale kid who wears glasses and a nervous expression.
"Oh, boy.. If word about this gets out, the science club could be in big trouble for some of the.. unorthodox experiments we've been trying out. I'll help you, but not a word of this can leave the school. Understand?"
You look uncertainly from the science geek to Scotty, who nods impatiently. "Yeah, whatever, just help my friend."
"Alright.." The other boy takes off his glasses, wipes sweat from his forehead, and with a grave expression, begins to mix some chemicals together. Solutions fizz and bubble. White steam billows out of viles and the geek's hands work hypnotically, hurriedly mixing and dousing, all the while his eyes flicker from the door to you, making sure no-one is passing by. "Okay." He finally says, handing a half-full vile of luminous yellow liquid to Scotty. "Take him home - I don't want anything to do with this from here on out - and feed him the solution. It should reverse the imbalance and return him to normal. He should only need a sip, but if it doesn't do the trick, give him a little more. Flush anything you don't use. i gotta go."
And with that, the science club member hurries out the door with his backpack. Scotty swishes the vile, pinched between his huge fingers. "Let's go, little buddy." he says, and returns you to his warm pocket for the anxious trip back to his place..
