Experiment 444

Prologue:

The mint green cougar stared at the bubbling tube. There was a small blue ball inside. "What ya got there Professor Lick?" boomed a sudden voice. The cougar turned round, lifting up his seaweed-green protection goggles. "Call me Professor Li, please, boss?" replied Professor Li. The figure stepped closer to the cougar, looking at broken glass bottles and spills of green, red and blue dye. Li's boss was a pitch-black coyote, wearing scary bat wings, a spooky top-hat and bright red rare candy-cane socks. "What do you want, boss?" asked Li politely. The boss stepped closer to the test tubes, frowning at the blue ball and the gas leak. "What have you got here?" he snapped, while Li rushed to block the leak with his paw. "U-uh, I-I have b-been study-i-ing how to d-defeat the phantoms with one s-single animal." stammered Li, refusing to look into the coyote's eyes, which were a shade of deep red, like when you get a severe cut and all the blood leaks out. The coyote sniggered. "Tsk, couldn't you do better?" said the boss, smirking. "I-I didn't k-know, Caprellidae." replied the professor, fear painted in his eyes. (btw Caprellidae means skeleton shrimp)
