The rowzez in the garden are beautiful.... I wonder if I as a Kacheek will ever see them again...

Hindinah is a blue Lenny. But her owner, Usagi (UnicornPrincess17) did not intend her to be. Hindinah was a striped Kacheek. WAS a striped Kacheek. Hindinah has a caring owner, and she is working very hard selling rare items to buy a Striped or Blue Kacheek morphing potion to change Hindinah back.

Hindinah loves rowzez. She loves to lay back in a garden full of them and close her eyes. But she is afraid she will never ever get to do that again, because she is no longer a Kacheek, and no longer is she a she!

Hindinah wants to tell you her story. As well as the good and terrible things The Secret Laboratory can do to your pets. Don't go thinking you are going to donate all your Secret Lab Maps to The Money Tree, even though that would be a nice thing to do... The Lab is like an adventure.. You don't know what it might do!!

The Story Begins...

"The Rowzez are sooo beautiful, and they smell nice too... Hey! Is that a weed?!? Get outta my garden!!!!!!!!"

Hindinah pulled the stingy weed and through it...somewhere. She laid back down in the soft spot of her garden, called the Flower Trek (trek also means journey), and there are miles and miles of rowzez and other flowers in her Flower Trek. Usagi (UnicornPrincess17, just to remind you) came up to Hindinah and gazed into her eyes. Hindinah noticed her and looked into her eyes, too.

"What are you thinking?" Usagi said to Hindinah.

"About my life, I wonder if something exciting is going to happen soon!" Hindinah said. Hindinah has a high voice, but not that squeaky. Usagi has a high voice and a low voice, and is very funny and pretty, just like Hindinah.

Lon_PoPo, a snowy white Lupe came into Flower Trek, followed by Pookey117, a purple Poogle, and Blamatso, a shiny, silver Shoyru. Now, Usagi cared about her spoiled rotten pets a lot. She took them to the Training School once in a while, as long as they agreed to go. All of them enjoyed fighting in the Battledome, because they knew they were strong enough to win.

All of her pets dreamed of becoming teachers that would teach NeoPets to be doctors, and kindhearted pound keepers (so they treat lonely pets like kings and queens), and all the other jobs too.

Lon_PoPo was a jealous little fellow, though he had lots of self-discipline. He sometimes accepted things that really didn't go his way. But this time, he said, "Why does gruddy, tiny Hindinah get her own garden?!?" Usagi looked at him in surprise, though she was not angry.... "Why, Hindinah has earned her garden, she watered the flowers nearly...everyday! Nearly ten miles of flowers get watered every day."

"So!! If she gets her own stinky Garden...I want my own store to sell some old junk I have under my bed..."

Usagi didn't get upset, she just ignored Lon_PoPo.... "Say, why don't we go to Secret Lab, I finished my map....It is.....Here." Usagi pointed to the red X on the map.

Her pets smiled. They were happy. Usagi had completed her first map! They agreed. They walked, swam, dug, and everything else, just to get to the Lab. A scary Scorchio opened the door...

It started to rain heavily, so hard when the rain banged down on Usagi and her pets, they said "Ouch!", they didn't hear from The Neopia Weather Cast that it would RAIN! Usagi and her pets rushed inside to have shelter from the rain.

"So, you have found my lab...do you think I have a ray that can really change your pet? But, beware, bad things can happen, along with the good!"

This did not scare Usagi, but Lon_PoPo... There was a different result. He was shivering and afraid to tell Usagi how he felt. He said it was the rain... The scary Scorchio said to call him Mad Billy Bob. Blamatso though this funny, a Scary scientist, or whatever he was, named Billy Bob?!?

Billy Bob said, "Bob would be FINE, Miss Shoyru..."

The four pets lined up in the straightest line. Bob had a funny accent... "Now, which one a you a want a try they secret ray a first a?"

The three pets... Not including Lon_PoPo the Rubber Chicken were very excited. Hindinah was first to raise her hand.

"Okie Dokie!" Bob said. Hindinah stood at the corner of the room and Bob fired at her! Usagi was scared.... "Will Hindinha be all right?!?"

Nothing happened, well, that is what it looked like. Hindinah seemed dizzy. "Hey!" Usagi spoke, "What happened?"

Bob smiled. "Hindinah is no longer a she... she is now a he!" Usagi thought, OK, no damage done... Hindinah then wished to go back all the time to use the ray. The ray was available a few times a day. Hindinah changed from Striped to Skunk, changed back to a girl, changed back to a boy, lost some levels, gained some levels, got some strength points. But Hindinah he wasn't in the ray long, the other pets tried the ray too! Back in Flower Trek...

"My life has changed so much! What if I never change...back? I wonder if I will always be a wonderful Kacheek, a cute little NeoPet, your NeoPet. Promise me something Usagi?"

Usagi looked at her, in the expression of yeah-what?

"You will always be by my side, that you will always be my owner--the one and only?" Usagi held both of Hindinah's hands.

"Always... I promise I shall never leave you."

Then one day, Usagi and Hindinah went to the Lab. Hindinah went back to the corner, and the ray shot at him! Usagi noticed that Hindinah was a girlish name and that now Hindinah was a boy... Usagi looked at Hindinah, was there no black and white, the color of the skunk Kacheek she used to know?

But... There was something else. Blue Feather released themselves from Hindinah's body, long orange feet unleashed, for Usagi's loving Kacheek had turned into a Lenny. Usagi was not a bad person, it was that she loved the pets she had, she felt like creating a new Hindinah, a replacement for the one lost, but she promised Hindinah, to stay by her side...

Even the new pet wasn't the same, Usagi moved on.... Hindinah didn't like being a Lenny! No, not at all. She wanted to be back in her Kacheek body. She wished Usagi had never finished the map...that they never ever went to the silly Lab. Usagi was not to blame. It was hers. "I wanted to be the best NeoPet ever, so I volunteered all the time to use it. I want now to have every chance I get, to change back into a pretty Kacheek I guess the Lab isn't all it is cracked up to be....."

Author's Note:

I don't think the funky Scorchio's name is really Bob, I wanted him to have a name, and not call him The Scorchio Scientist all the time! This is a true story! My pets name is Hindinah, and she turned into a he, and into a blue Lenny. My nickname is Usagi. My real name is Serena. I felt like calling myself Usagi. I am saving up lots and lots of Neopoints to buy any Kacheek morphing potion! This might take some time, but never give up, never surrender!

The End
