About five years ago, Edgar’s family had put him in an assisted living home. He had been brilliant in his youth, pioneering several advances in the field of biological technology. But when he began ranting about mind control and ghosts, his family became worried. When they found him in his basement with several broken bones, they knew there was no choice.
However, Edgar’s rants were actually based on a solid theory. And he had spent the years at the assisted living home building a device that would allow him to swap into a different, younger body. He didn’t want to test with anyone inside the home, so he aimed it ransomly out the window. And it worked!
He looked down at his body. He had taken over the body of a young woman. He really couldn’t understand the fashion of today’s youth or the wild way she dressed, but he decided it was best to keep up the appearance as to not draw any undue attention to himself. If this is how she dressed before, this is how he would dress now, even if he did think it was weird. And now that he’d proved his device could work, he’d have to build another one. After all, he wanted to stay as far away from that assisted living home as possible.
