After 18 long years of being made fun of by the kids in his neighborhood and 12 years of being teased at school, Julian was finally preparing his revenge. He had spent a few months crafting the compound in his basement. Anyone who drank it would spontaneously change genders. The bully jocks would become women, and the snobby cheerleaders would be men; they both would hate it!

He had already tried the liquid he created on himself, transforming his dorky male self into his female equivalent. This would help with the next part of his plan. As Julian, he’d be harassed and ousted the minute he set foot at prom, but as Julia? No one would even recognize him! He could slip his mixture into the punch, and the delayed effects would surely mean most of the senior class would consume it before anyone realized what would happen to them! He smiled thinking about how they would react!

Now he just needed to make enough for everyone. He calculations needed to be perfect. If he didn’t make enough, it would be too diluted to work. Too much and it would turn the punch bitter and undrinkable. Such was the joys of science!
