McMillan Tech Industries Lake Point Branch, upper floor
Samantha Duncan, Arnie Amspoker, Larry Eastbrook, and Carrie Brierton made their way through the Accounting department.
"So far, so good." Arnie said. "I'm a bit surprised we got two Transformation Guns without much of a fight."
"Not everyone's going to go nuts with them." Samantha said. "Unless we've got someone obsessed with physical fitness, I don't think many people are going to go around zapping random people with the Jock Gun."
"Ms. Fielding from Accounting was a bit sad to part with the Babe Gun." Carrie said. "But at least she wasn't zapping people with it without asking them first."
"Just as well." Samantha said. She had been part of the discussion with Rachel McLewis when the Babe Gun was conceived. She was glad no one at MTI had used the Babe Gun on a male subject. Though if what she had heard was any indication, the Babe Gun over at Lake Point High School HAD been used on a few male subjects, including its principal.
In any case, they were sure that at least one of each type of Transformation Gun could be found in the upper levels of the MTI Lake Point headquarters.
So far, the Punk Gun had been claimed by the guards at the parking garage after Jerri Blazestorm tossed it aside when she left. The Fat Gun had been taken to Lake Point High School by Gladys Brewer, and was currently stored in Principal Davison's safe along with the other Fat Gun that had been sent to the school earlier. The Random Gun had overheated and exploded when it had been used over a hundred times in less than five minutes. And Samantha and her group now had the Jock Gun and the Babe Gun.
The Slut Gun (or Hypersexuality Gun as some preferred to call it) had been destroyed by two low-level Marketing executives who found its effects to be incredibly disturbing, and used their Jock Gun given strength to destroy it, only for them to be transformed by it themselves in its last zap. This was another example of a Transformation Gun being destroyed and causing anyone within ten feet of its destruction to be transformed by its final transformation. Samantha and her group had learned about this after the fact, being told what happened by witnesses on the scene. They used their Restoration Guns to change the affected back, and fortunately no one had gone too far while under the influence of it. Samantha was glad the non-affected on the scene had been able to restrain people before they arrived.
The other types of Transformation Gun were still unaccounted for at MTI's upper levels. Samantha only hoped they weren't doing too much damage at the Legal and Public Relations departments, for those departments would be needed in the days and weeks to come.
"Six down, how many to go?" Larry asked Samantha.
"Hmm. At least a dozen other types." Samantha said, after a moment of thought. "But we don't need to claim all of them now. Just the ones between the main entrance and the main Board meeting room area."
Some of them - the Geek Gun, the Steampunk Gun, and the Goth Gun - were pretty harmless. Though others - such as the Clown Gun and the Mime Gun - could create serious problems. It was likely there may be other injuries or traumas in the building.
Right now, Samantha and her group had to focus on the ones they knew about. Mostly Mr. McMillan and the others who had been transformed 20 times each during the Random Gun craziness in the Board meeting. The doctors who had been called would be here any minute, and Samantha and her group needed to clear a path for them to get to McMillan and the others without much incident.
And now, they were nearly through with their search of the Accounting Department. Soon they would reach the Meeting Room area on the other side of the floor where the Marketing and Accounting Departments were housed.
Arnie Amspoker turned to Samantha. "I'm glad things aren't as bad as I thought they'd be. My daughter texted me back. Said she's worried I might get..."
He never finished the sentence, for at that moment, he was zapped by a Transformation Gun.
Samantha knew right away which Transformation Gun it was. It was the...
