He'd pop in later to observe the effects of the potion for himself, once the pleasantries were over.* For now, all his attention was on stack of papers littering his workspace. He pored over his notes and samples, comparing and analyzing the components of several possible formulas for a permanent potion. Which one would deliver the desired result with the fewest side effects?
Egon's eyes momentarily flicked toward his watch; almost time to check on the test subjects. That question would have to wait until he got back, he supposed. He quickly tidied the papers at his station, but as he put away his samples, he noticed something strange. He'd started out with three vials; now there were only two. What happened to the other one? He frantically searched his station, but to no avail. Maybe it fell and rolled under something? No, not there either!
It wasn't until a summoning charm failed to turn up the missing vial that panic set in. If the vial was no longer in the lab, where else could it possibly be? Egon's heart sank as realization hit him. Surely it couldn't have… but it was the only explanation that made sense. He burst into the testing room not even a moment later, flushed and breathless. "WAIT! DON'T DRINK ANYTHING YET!"
But it was too late. As he looked around, he saw a rabbit (Belle) and a kneazle (Marsha)... and he thought he saw a crup (Alba) somewhere too. It was hard to tell in all the confusion. He sidled over to his colleagues, panic-stricken eyes darting from one face to the other. "We have a major problem," he said, trying to keep his voice down as much as possible. "One of the permanent potions has disappeared from the lab."
Alba was certain she had a tail ...wait was that 2 tails or just 1? ... and she had 4 paws. Dear Merlin what was she. And she had a strange feeling to want to chase something ... like a cat .. right yeah a cat to chase or ball.... Alba shook her head and felt some ears do a little flop to. All in all her conclusion brought her to one thing... a Crup ... she was certainly a crup... not what she wanted to be all. The urge to find ball was strong, so strong ... Alba began sniffing ... some one over here smelt like cookies.... And then despearte to find a ball, she hear something that stopped her in her tracks ...... Did that wizard over there say something about permanent? Like as in forever a crup. That was a big ole' nope!!!
Alba ran over to genetlem and jumped up, placing her paws on his chest and starting giving her best speech.
"I did NOT sign up to be a crup for life. This was suppose to help people transform when they want to. I demand to see you boss, I demand to be turned back right this second. But of course ... she was crup ... so all anyone actually heard was.
"Woof, woof, wooooooooooooooffffffffffffffffff." And probably a growl... and she didn't even care she was ruining this man's robes....
