Two typical scientists

That night...

"careful..." Charlos said towards his young brother, Charlie. who's carefully trying to pour one drop of the purple liquid into the blue ones.

"i know.." charlie replied.

"dude you your hands going down so fast. your gonna pour everything!" charlos shouted in whisper.

"look, i know what i'm doing and i'll do it right if you don't interrupt me. man.." charlie growled.

"okay okay.." charlos give a step backward.

The potion goes poof!!

The two brothers stared at each other for a few seconds.

"i think it worked."charlie said.

"i dunno man, your the brains" Charlos gave an irritating tone. charlie rolls his eyes.

"okay, who's gonna drink it first?"

"not me." Charlos raised both of his palms.

"what? but- okay we'll drink it together." charlie pour the combined liquid into half of two cups.

they hold on on their cups.

"one,..two,..three.drink." they did as charlie said and waited for few seconds of any certain changes.

"huh..my tummy feels different." said charlie.they waited another few minutes.

"great, theres no changes! and my stomach felt like i cant't take a dump for a few years now." charlos complained. charlie sighed.

"yea maybe it didn't work but we have to keep trying. those two FBI agents needs the potions for serious stuff man. i'm tired too but we can't give up" charlie rubbed his face before turning to his brother. his eyes went widen.

"charlos?!"he shouted.

"what, man? can you not shout or you'll make my head explode!"charlos turn his head to charlie and his face turn shock.

"dude! your a cat!!" they said it the same time and look at their body and hands.

"GAAHHHH!!!" the lab turn loud with their screams. they touch their faces couple of times.

"man, how could this happen?? did we put anything wrong?" charlie said.

"how should i know! first we combined the salt,the suspect's DNA, a cup of some weird leaf then pure water, then we blend it all off,then we put the purple liquid into the blue ones, then-"

"wait wait wait!, purple liquid? it should be the pink ones!" Charlie interrupt Charlos's lines.

"well how should i know? your the one that took the purple from those cabinets."

"you know i have color-blind! and i did asked you if its pink before i poured it in!"

" well you- well.. okay fine i did a bit mistake but do we have an antidote to make to change back??" charlos admitted his mistake then had to jump onto the high cabinets to rummage one of the drawers for finding uncle Tom's journal. Charlie let out a huge breath. he followed his big brother onto the cabinets.

"there must be a way in Tom's journal to make the antidote" charlos turns the pages one by one.

"stop! i think this it" charlie fall his paw on the page that says 'Animal change'

"okay, we're saved. thank..youu uncle Tom!" charlos said it proudly

"okay, we have to do it quickly because we only left two days to make the potion for the FBIs" charlie pick up the journal with his mouth then went to the other table where the potion made. They followed the instructions from the journal. the instructions were arranged in numbers. but when it comes in the ninth instruction, a part of the page was gone.

"damnit, this part got ripped off." charlie analize the page.

"or eaten" charlos turn his head towards a caterpillar just crawl out from the drawer.

"what should we do now?" the young brother asked.

"i guess we had to call Tom"

"but he's in a meeting with other scientists. you remember what he said,'don't call or disturb me while i'm working you little mud brains!'" charlie made a tease with an exact voice of uncle Tom.

"fine. you got any other ideas?"charlos asked.

"well the only option i could think of is we should finish the FBI's potions first until Tom's finishes work at 12:00a.m"

"so..what'r you saying? we're stayin like this until 12:00a.m??"

"uh..yeah. we can't make the antidote without the instructions and if we do,it'll take hours to figure out instruction number nine." charlie explained.

"damnit..it's not fair." said charlos.

"whats not fair? why we turn into cats?"

"no. why do i have the white fur?! why do you gets the black ones?! stupid potion."charlie rolls his eyes.

"seriously? thats your issue with this?? come on we have to work on that potion."

They had a bit of a hard time bringing the specimens back and fourth and jumping on cabinets to cabinets. the potion was a success after a few hours. charlie put the potion carefully into his bag.

"man..praise the lord its done. and we're left another...an hour till midnight." charlos checked his watch. they sat on the stools..well.. in a cat position of course. charlie stared at the eaten page from the journal. Then charlos's phone ranged. he climb the table and pushes the answer button.

"Hello? charl? where are ya kid? you can't still be in the lab r ya?" it was uncle tom. charlie look at his brother with joy.

"tom! its me. yeah we're still in the lab and-"

but what uncle Tom heard was,

"meow! meow! meorww!"

"hello? damn cats.how'd it became so smart to answer this thing?"tom said in confusion.

"damn it.." charlie hang up his phone then decided to text instead.

'uncle Tom! Its us. and the damn cats you said was on the phone just a second ago was us. you see we accidentally made a wrong potion that had turned us into cats and we checked your journal but a part of the page was eaten by a caterpillar. ironic isn't it? so we was wondering what was instruction number nine?'charlos then presses sent.

Uncle tom texted back. and they finally got the answer for the last ingredient.

"charlie,heres the last ingredient"charlos handed his phone to him.

"thank god..finally!"
