    Jake and Jennifer found themselves trapped in an abandoned laboratory. With no way out, they began to explore their surroundings. The place was eerily silent, with only the occasional creaking of rusty metal to break the silence.

    In their exploration, they stumbled upon a sealed chamber. It was untouched and filled with cases of Gamma Radiation. The sight of them made Jennifer uneasy, reminding her of her own transformation.

    Their attention was drawn to a panel that seemed to recognize Jennifer. It prompted her to insert a syringe of her blood into it. With no other choice, she complied, watching as her gamma-infused blood traveled into a tank.

    Meanwhile, Jake, engrossed in his exploration, accidentally hit a button. A glass tube enclosed him and began to pump green gas, infused with Jennifer's blood. Jake's fear turned into panic as he tried to break the glass.

    The sight of Jake’s transformation frightened Jennifer. She watched as her cousin was consumed by the green gas, his body changing before her eyes. His skin turned green, his physique growing muscular and powerful. He was no longer the Jake she knew; he had become the Hulk.

    Jake roared in pain and confusion, his new form unfamiliar and frightening. He fought against the transformation, his body shrinking down as he lost his memories. He became less muscular, but his new abs remained. He was now Beast Boy, a teenager with the power to change into any animal.

    As the green gas disappeared, the chamber opened. Beast Boy fell to the ground, disoriented and confused. Jennifer rushed to his side, asking if he was okay. But when she called him Jake, he only looked at her in confusion. He was Beast Boy now, and he had no memory of his previous life.

    Enraged and confused, Beast Boy attacked Jennifer. He was stronger now, his new powers giving him an edge. Jennifer fought back, but Beast Boy managed to extract her Gamma DNA. His rage grew, his muscles bulging as he absorbed her power.

    Beast Boy's transformation was complete. He was no longer Jake, the normal teenager. He was now Beast Boy, a powerful being with the strength of the Hulk and the ability to change into any animal. He laughed, the teenager within him enjoying his new-found power. He was ready to take on the world.

    Jennifer watched in horror as Beast Boy turned his back on her, leaving her behind in the abandoned laboratory. She was left alone, her cousin now a stranger. She vowed to find a way to bring Jake back, no matter what it took.
