A Close Call

Just as the gator morph lifts you into the ring, a familiar voice shouts, "Albert!"

Every morph in the room freezes. Turning toward the voice, you see your trainer Jake pushing his way through the crowd. With a graceful leap, Jake bounds into the ring. The gator immediately releases his grip on you.

"Albert!" Jake repeats, shaking a finger at the cringing gator. "How many times do I have to tell you not to bring the newbies in here ahead of schedule?"

"Aw, gee, Jake," Albert whines. "I just thought ... well, look at him!" he exclaims, tapping a clawed finger against your heavily-muscled chest. "I think he's ready. Don't you?"

"I decide when he's ready!" Jake shouts in reply. "Now get in the pool and give me 50 laps!"

Muttering under his breath, Albert bounds out of the ring, jogs to the swimming pool, and slips into the water.

"Sorry about that," Jake tells you reassuringly. "Albert tends to jump the gun sometime."
