Jack yawns softly, leaning up against the car door. Him and his friends had woken up pretty early that day, it was a long drive out to the swamp and they needed to get there as early as possible, their friend Mark had been working on his research of the local ecosystem after hearing about some of the life around the swamp area seeming to just vanish overnight. They hadn’t heard anything like this happening nearby before so if he could be the first one on the scene and get his research in there’s no doubt he’d get something huge from all of this. The car pulls off to the side of the road the bumpy group shaking Jack up a bit and waking him back up from his stoop. Jumping in surprise he grunts softly and looks around. “M-mrrf, are we there?” He asks rubbing his eyes slightly, taking a look around as he reaches up to lightly rub the back of his head. Looking towards his two other friends. Of course there was his rhino friend Mark, the one behind this entire trip. Then there was Lev the bee-wasp hybrid, the two of them were on the trip as support for Mark. After all he had a lot of ground to cover so they could at least help out. “Yep, you guys ready?” Mark asks, opening up the driver side door, stretching a bit as he groans. The cool morning air brushing across his skin, getting a small snort from the rhino as he smiles. Though he couldn’t help but notice that there was.. Something else in the air. A strong earth scent. Which wasn’t totally abnormal for a place like this. But something about it felt different. There was certainly something to look into, perhaps that was the cause or at least a factor in the lack of wildlife in the area. Jack yawns softly, the reptile stretching and scratching the back of his neck as he climbs out of the car alongside Lev. The both of them take a look around before grinning towards Mark. “So then, where to first?” Lev asks looking over to his friend while Jack takes a look around the wide open area, he had lived in the area for a long time yet he never really came around this place. Though as he looked around he couldn’t really help but notice just why. The whole swampy area had such a strange feeling to him. It felt like he was being watched from all areas around him. Just like something.. Somewhere was watching him, reaching up to rub the back of his head he grumbles quietly. Shaking it off he does his best to think nothing of it. After all it was more than likely all in his head. Just being alone in a group in the middle of nowhere usually brought that strange feeling of unease right? At least that’s what he told himself. “Hmm well let’s take a look around to see what’s around here first and foremost.” Mark says, taking out a notebook, a slight hum leaving his mouth as he starts to write a few things down inside of it. “So you guys are good to stay around for the whole thing? It’s gonna take a lot of time just to let you know.” He explains while starting to walk, taking a look behind him towards the others. Lev nods and smirks starting to follow behind as he hurries on forwards. Staying close to his pal. Jack stretches once more, chuckling a bit to himself as he looks around. “Hmm~ I certainly don’t mind hanging around for a good while~ Might even have a bit of swamp fun or something.” He muses aloud to himself, waving his hand dismissively. Slipping his hands into his pockets he starts to walk as well. Taking it slow for a moment before hopping forwards and speeding up to catch up with his friends. “So Mark, do you need us to do anything to help out?” He asks curiously not minding doing some work, the both of them were glad to help out in any way. But Mark simply shakes his head, looking back to the others with a small smile. “Oh no worries at all, you guys don’t need to do anything at all. Just kinda relax and hang around. Having you guys here to support me is all I need~ Plus I’m just going to be checking out the land. Looking over the flora and what fauna we can find, and checking out what we can find in the swamp water. There’s a reason why all of this is happening, so we have to figure out why.” He explains, lightly tapping his pen against his notebook. A slight hum leaving his mouth once more as he takes a quick look around. “It doesn’t appear to be polluted in any way.. The trees are still alive, the ground is lush.. This is all really strange..” He mutters quietly to himself looking back. “I wouldn’t wander off too far though, just in case the wild animals still around here are hostile. If you do, just be safe, you know?” He explains smiling back to the others who nod back. It doesn’t take too long for the others to reach the edge of the swamp. Kneeling down slightly he looks over the water curiously. Though with how thick and murky the water was it was near impossible to properly see through the surface. Standing back up he frowns and crosses his arms. “Hmm we probably won’t get anywhere like this..” He tells himself rubbing the back of his head as he thinks about what to do. Meanwhile the two others sit down on a nearby fallen log staring into the water as well. Noticing just how foggy the surface of the water was. However Lev swore he could see small little things just below the surface. Something that was swimming around right under the skin of the water. As they’re sitting there, letting Mark work, Jack huffs softly, raising a hand to start fanning himself off. Blushing slightly as the heat starts to get to him. It was a fairly warm day out that day, but there was just something about this area. Probably something like the swamp gas that just heated up the area around him. Leaning back on the stump he and Lev were hanging out at he can’t help but let out a slight groan of discomfort. “So uh… Hey, how safe is swamp water usually?” He asks, looking over to Mark with a quizzing tilt of his head. Mark perks up slightly, glancing over with a nod. “Well it really depends on where we are and the general location of the swamp, some places are dumping grounds for illicit materials sadly..” He mutters with a shake of his head. “But well the water here is usually pretty safe.” He states with a nod, kneeling down at the water’s edge. Slipping on a pair of gloves as he reaches in and scoops a small bit of the liquid into a vial. Lifting it up he sways it back and forth, swirling it around to get a good idea of just how thick the surface muck was. Once again it seemed pretty normal. Nothing about it outwardly seemed wrong. At least not enough to dry up the area around them. “I don’t really think the water around here is all too dangerous though. In fact if anything it seems perfectly fine..Not to drink or anything of course. But it won’t do anything to you if you accidentally get some on you.” Lev meanwhile glances up towards the sky. Closing his eyes for another moment. Once again there was that feeling. That there was certainly something.. Wrong about all of this. This place just didn’t feel right. “Hmm.. Jack I don’t know I don’t really know if this is such a good-” But as he opens his eyes to look at his friend he finds the Reptile already removing his shirt and pants. Tossing them off to the side before running forwards and jumping in. Mark jumps a bit himself, stepping back and raising his gear away, trying not to get splashed. While Lev sighs and pulls back slightly as well. Making sure nothing got on him as well. Shaking his head he sighs. “Hmm? What was that Lev?” Jack asks, tilting his head a bit as he swims around in the swamp water. Smiling a bit at how cool and calming the water was, it was almost supernatural how good his body felt against the liquid. Though for just a moment he feels a strange wave washing over him His ear suddenly clogs up. Sending a shiver through him for whatever reason. But he brushes it off, coming a bit to a stop as he picks himself up and shakes his head. Lightly hitting one side of his head to try and get the water out. “Eugh.. Damn swimmer’s ear..” He mutters quietly as he goes back to swimming. Glancing up to the two others. “Sooo you guys wanna maybe join me for a bit?” He asks with a smile. Mark offers a smile back, chuckling a bit but shakes his head. “Probably not dude. I really need to focus on this. Might actually head a bit further in and check out some of the deeper swamp areas. You two can stay here, if you want to cool off. The denser the trees the hotter it’ll probably get. I’d imagine you guys probably wouldn’t want that. Or at least Jack.” He says with another chuckle. Jack picks himself up, waving his friend off as he floats towards the edge of the water. Shivering once more as he feels a few of the small fish in the water brush up against him. He didn’t really know the area too well or what lived in it to be more specific. So he just assumed they were fish. Lev chuckles a bit himself. Keeping his calm and collected look as he stood back up. “Well if you’re going swimming I might as well go check to see if we have any towels in the car. I doubt either of us want to ruin the seats.” He says standing up himself. Giving a nod to Mark who smiles and nods back himself as the three of them split up. Leaving Jack to swim around on his own for a bit. Once they are gone the back gets to work on trying to get the water out of his ear again. He wasn’t sure why but something about it was just hurting his head ever so slightly. A dull sort of thudding against the side of his head. Nothing overly painful or anything. Just annoying if anything. Distracting too as it clouds his thoughts and judgement. After swimming for a bit longer he picks himself up out of the water. Sitting on the edge as he stares down into it. Lifting an arm he looks himself over as well. Wincing a bit as he notices a small thin layer of some kind of weird goop clinging to his body. Reaching a hand over he lightly pinches the thin screen of slime and pulls off a tiny bit of it. Lifting it up to his nose as he takes a quick sniff. It didn’t really smell like anything specific. But there was this weird, and gross scent to it. He wasn’t sure how to describe it outside of being extremely swamping. Like some kind of foul concentration of swamp water that clung to his body. What was worse was how the water clog in his ear still wouldn’t go away. A slightly annoyed grumble leaves his mouth, doing his best to get it out as he reaches one of its slimy fingers up, lightly prodigy and poking around his ear, sticking his tongue out a bit as he really worked it in there. As his tongue slithers out of his mouth he crosses his eyes for a moment and tilts his head. He wasn’t too sure why but his tongue felt quite a bit longer than normal and as he stared at it he watched it sway back and forth, back and forth. It seemed wrong but as the water in his ear seems to swarm into his mind he finds it just a bit harder to think clearly. Not to mention the loud buzzing that seemed to echo around his head. Uncrossing his eyes Jack’s eyes dart around, looking for the source of the buzzing. Confused at the sound his eyes soon landed on a fly that was buzzing around above his head. He fixates on it, staring and watching it dart around the air. He didn’t even notice his own tongue slowly curling back into his mouth. He opens his mouth without even thinking as his tongue suddenly shoots out and strikes the fly. Within seconds it catches the little bug and pulls backwards. Wrapping the fly up as he pulls it back into his mouth. Swallowing it down with an almost instinctual gulp. Blinking, he tilts his head and looks around. “Hmm? Where the hell did that fly go?” Jack muttered quietly to himself. Shaking his head he figured it was nothing, looking back into the water he rubs at his arm, the tip of his tongue sticking out past his muzzle, the edge now bulbous and dripping a thick, sticky slime. His skin felt so warm and oddly so dry, he can’t help but rub and scratch a bit at it. The slime was a little weird but overall it wasn’t too big of a deal and the water did really, really feel nice. Maybe another quick dip wouldn’t hurt. So while waiting for Lev to come back he dips back into the water. As he starts to swim and push himself through the water, the reptile hums softly, closing his eyes as he hears the buzzing once more. Without even needing to look, his tongue shoots out, grabbing another fly out of the air. Swallowing it down as his face begins to tingle. He felt like something was off, but at the same time the water just felt so nice, he wasn’t sure what was beneath the surface but he could feel a bunch of small little creatures rubbing up all around him. None of them seemed to bother him, which was nice as well. He didn’t even notice the tingling in his face starting to intensify slowly building up as his face began to bloat and fill out. Growing larger while his eyes bulge outwards. Opening them up his pupils take on an oval and larger look. The slime sticking to his face only seems to grow more, dripping into the water below as he lets out a small chuckle, slurping up some of the slime around his face before swallowing it back down with a small laugh and smile. The next strange feeling to flicker across his body are around his limbs, specifically his hands and feet. As weight begins to pile on all around his body, bloating out with fat and losing any muscles that might have been there his hands soon start to stick together. Fingers being forced together as he slowly comes to a stop, resting up against the bank opposite of where he started. Looking down with a tilt of his head he stares at his stuck hands. “Hmm? That’s not supposed to happen? Did I get too much slime stuck to me?” He questions with a curious hum soon feeling the same thing happening to his feet, They were stuck together somehow, and he couldn’t pull them apart. It was such a strange feeling, his mind was already racing, holding a hand up to his head as he shutters softly. There was for a moment a slight hint of fear that began to fill his mind. But quickly as if to stop those fears he hears a small voice in the back of his head. It wasn’t really saying anything important or anything really understandable. But it felt calming. Relaxing his mind and body Jack lets out a small sigh of pleasure, sinking a bit into the water. Tilting his head up while taking a deep breath. Once again in his dazed state as he breathes in he fails to notice his neck pushing out, filling with air as a loud CRRROOOAAAAAKKKKK Leaves his mouth, making him jump for a moment, his next swiftly deflating as he looks around. Wondering where such a loud noise could have come from. Reaching down he scratches slightly at his now fat ass. His fingers separating once more now fully webbed, the same happening to his feet, growing nice and webbed as he wiggles his fat, bloated toes under the water. Shivering as he feels the life under the swamp rub up against his feet. Meanwhile Lev was back at the car, taking out a towel and a few other things they had all brought. Mostly just to make sure they kept safe and clean in case there was something in the swamp they didn’t know about. Though as he looks over everything he can help but smirk a bit. He was glad everything seemed to be going well. Nothing to worry about yet after all, though once more, for the third time there was that feeling of absolute dread, and it was.. Stronger than before. Like there was something else, or perhaps they were getting closer to whatever this dread truly was. It was hard to properly discern, and a part of him thought to listen to it, but once again he wrote it off. Thinking that it could just be something in the air. Or perhaps a general fear from everything he heard from Mark’s research, after all with such a mysterious case, how could he not feel weirded out by it. While making his way back he jumps slightly as a loud croaking noise echoes through the trees of the forest, perking up as he looks around. While it sounded like a frog it was much louder, almost like it was coming from a creature that was far too large to just be a normal frog. Frowning a bit he speeds up his walk a bit, moving faster through the trees to make his way back to the swamp water. It doesn’t take long for him to finally break the tree line, pushing his way out into the open as he takes a look around. “Jack, Mark?” He asks not seeing either one of them, and at first there isn’t a response and he thinks to head deeper into the swamp though the water soon starts to bubble as a strange, bloated figure slowly rises from the water. Stepping back he stares at the strange creature. Though his eyes widen, recognition flickers across his face as he realizes just what this was or rather who it was. The strange almost toad-like creature rising from the water appeared to be.. “J-jack?” He questions stepping forwards. “Hey Lev~ Hope you’re CRRROOAAK Doing well~ Why don’t you go ahead and hop into the water. It’s really nice~” He remarks, clearing his throat a bit as if he was unaware of the loud animalistic noise that came from his throat. “Come on, join me for a swim~” He adds looking up to Lev who could only stare back in shock before finally clearing his throat and kneeling down. “J-Jack come on we need to get you out of there.” Lev finally replies, making his way over, kneeling down by the water and offering a hand out. “Can’t you see what it’s doing to you?” He was still trying to stay calm but he found it hard to stay composed with what he was looking at. He could still see it was his friend but he was so slimy and bloated. His eyes were bulging, his fingers and toes were webbed, it was almost like he was turning into some fucked up frog creature, and he didn’t even seem to notice a thing. “Come on, take my hand, let's find Mark and get out of here okay?” He says kneeling down by the water, keeping a hand outstretched to his friend. Jack looks up towards Lev tilting his head, he doesn't feel anything weird, looking over his body the toad-lizard frowns a bit before looking up to Lev. “I don’t feel any different dude~ I think you’re just overthinking things here.” Jack explains with a dismissive wave of his webbed hand, but smiling a bit he reaches out to grab Lev’s hand, holding it for a few moments before suddenly yanking backwards. Attempting to pull Lev into the water. Lev manages to slip his hand out thanks to how slimy it was, though the force of it was still enough to throw him off balance causing him to wobble back and forth, trying to catch himself Jack just smirks sticking his unnaturally long tongue out before back pedaling deeper into the swamp water. Winking to Lev as he finally loses his footing tumbling right into the water. Staying under for a few seconds it takes a few moments for Lev to surface again, now drenched in slime as he gasps for air. Shaking his head he reaches a hand up to the side, rubbing a bit as he feels his ears clog a bit. It takes a few moments for it to click with him but he could feel like there was something inside of his ear, worming deeper and deeper. But before he can fully process it a shock is sent through his entire system as he starts to relax once more, taking a deep breath as he slowly starts to compose himself again. “Hmm~ You know you were right~ This isn’t that bad..” He replied, sighing as he went to lay back slightly already he could feel his body starting to bloat out, feeling the area right below his neck starting to swell. Along with that his fingers stuck together, quickly webbing together as Jack chuckles and slowly picks himself out of the water. Lev watched curiously, staring at his friend’s fat hole. His hyper slimy pucker dripped heavily as he sat himself on the ground, legs arching while lowering himself onto the ground, wiggling his ass as he grunted softly. Without much effort he starts to push out egg after slimy egg, piling up onto the ground behind him as he huffs and groans softly. “H-hrrff~ Ohhh yeah just gotta get this out~” Jack moans out, looking up into the air to catch a few more flies. Though while Lev is watching him he can’t help but shutter. Realization slowly crawls into his mind as he looks down to his body. Reaching his hands up to stare at his hands, looking at the webbing, feeling his eyes bulge, and face swell. Feeling over his face he soon realizes that he was turning into a toad creature like his friend. But feeling an itch in his throat he could already feel his mind cloud, eyes glazing over as he let out a low, but still loud CRRRROOOOOAAAAAAKKK His neck swelling out pushing his head back into the water. Mind swimming with water and.. Something else as he could feel his asshole already filling out, pumping out nice and wide. Twitching as his bloated stomach began to feel oddly full. “Heh feeling better down there man?” Jack asks, still in the middle of laying his clutch. Lev didn’t even need to say anything. Floating over to the edge of the swamp and letting out another loud croak as he climbs out. Squatting down to lay a nice set of eggs next to his friend, bumping their fat frog asses together, pulling it apart with a nice few strings of slime clinging to their rumps. As they continue laying their eggs their minds slowly start to drain, IQ dropping quickly as they grow dumber and dumber with each passing moment. Thick strings of slimy drool dribbling from their maws as they croak loudly. With a drop of their IQ they slowly lose their old selves, fading to nothing more than filthy needy frog. The water in front of them thrashing and splashing around the tadpoles inside almost seeming to cheer on the two new frogs, the two of them leaning their heads back, shooting blasts of thick, sticky cum across the ground in front of them, fat donuts twitching stuck in a perma gape. The two of them slowly stand back up croaking once more and looking at one another. While they were still visible as who they were, they were much more toad-like in appearance, along with having certain markings across their body that seemed to reflect who they were. Jack had marks across his body that look like reptilian ridges that line his body. Meanwhile Lev had two lines moving along the back of his head, giving the look of something like folded back antenna. The both of them slowly pick themselves back up. Moving quite slowly and leaving large piles of slime wherever they step their entire bodies wobbling and jiggling around as they croak loudly. Moving deeper into the forest. Mark grumbles quietly to himself, kneeling down at the edge of the water as he looks through it. Tilting his head to the side as he just tried to understand what he was looking at. In front of him lay a giant nest, large, slime coated eggs lay in the center and he could see large amounts of tadpoles slowly crawling out and into the water, spreading out. In fact right below the surface he could see various small creatures squirming and swimming around, spreading out over the entire swamp. “So it’s some kind of infestation?” He wonders aloud, crossing his arms with a small sigh. Everything was admittingly.. Worrying, especially since he knew that there shouldn’t be too many tadpoles, especially not this amount. Shaking his head he notes a few more things down. “What exactly is all of this?... It’s no time to think about this, I should find the others and get out of here..” He says to himself. Taking a deep breath he goes to stand up. Only to hear that loud croaking noise from right behind him. Jumping up he quickly spins around to face the source of the noise. Two massive toad-like creatures waddle up towards him. Reaching their hands out. Both of the creatures are letting out a series of low croaks and groans that almost vaguely sound like his name. Just croaking out “Maarrooooccckkk” Over and over, and as he looks them over he notices the markings on their bodies. Along with just their general form, a long reptile tail or an insect lower body it took a few seconds but as he stands there his eyes wide and realization finally dawns on him. “J-jack.. Lev?” He questions looking between the two of them. “What happened to you two? Does it have something to do with the tadpoles?” He asks looking to the water, his mind racing as he tries to hold onto some kind of realism in what felt like an unreal and near impossible situation. He just couldn’t understand what was happening, or what he was looking at. He knew it was his two best friends but they were so bloated and slimy and just.. Disgusting. He could barely process that they were getting closer until they already had their hands around his shoulders, grinding their fat slimy shafts up against him. Pressing their forms firmly against Mark as they lean their heads back, croaking once more as their necks swell out in size. Pushing him back, soon teetering over the water. As he tries to hold his place. But it isn’t long before they give him one last push, sending the poor man tumbling over the edge. As he falls into the water everything seems to slow around him, he knew there had to be a reason why they wanted to get him into the water, remembering the many, many tadpoles in the water he shutters once more, closing his eyes as he prepares to crash into the water. He had seen his future and he could only hope he could get out before he became like them. Crashing into the water with a loud splash he holds his breath tight though within moments he could feel tadpoles pressing up against his body, squirming and rubbing all over him, coating him in a thick layer of slime. All the while he could feel one in specific worm it’s way into his head. His hand shoots up to his ear, trying to grab it and yank it back out. But with how slimy both he and it were, it easily slips through his palms. Already he could feel his body starting to bloat and swell. He knew he didn’t have much time. His clothes already straining under his growing body he swims over towards one of the other banks before shooting up and grabbing the ledge. Panting heavily as he grits his teeth. “O-okay.. J-just.. Have to..” He trails off looking behind him to see Jack and Lev jump into the water after him. Not even finishing the thought he jumps out of the water. Jumping quite a bit higher, as well as landing in a manner very similar to that of a toad before he picks himself up and runs heading deeper into the wood. All the while he could feel his fingers and toes fusing together, growing a nice webbing. All the while his feet slap wetly against the ground, leaving a good amount of slime with each footstep. Huffing the whole while as he runs through the trees, pushing his way as his gut wobbles in front of him. Letting out small croaks as his neck swells and deflates with each breath. His mind is already starting to grow heavy… Why was he running again? As he thought this the bloated toad-rhino began to slow down, rubbing his belly as he realized just how full he was. He just had to sit down for a moment and take a load off. Squatting down he could hear the sound of wet, slimy footsteps quickly approaching from behind, his friends were coming to join him. Already he could feel his swell donut start to twitch and throb yawning open, gaping as a nice clutch of eggs begins to push out of his fat hole. Grunts and groans leaving his mouth as he licks his fat, slimy lips. Tilting his head back he calls out to the others with a rumbling nearly ground shaking CRRROOAAKKKKKKK While still laying his first of many clutches. He was pretty deep within the forest, he would need their help carrying them back to the water after all. It all felt amazing coming out, and he knew they would find more people, people who wander into the swamp, to search for them or just getting curious about the noises no doubt they would come soon enough. The group of them gather up eagerly playing with themselves, stroking their cocks off while croaking loudly into the evening air. Night quickly approaches forgetting what they were even worrying about mere hours ago as any hints of intelligence slowly fades from their minds. Reduced to nothing more than dumb, horny toads. All three of them were massive, and fat their guts sagging and swinging right above their crotch. Only held up by their giant pricks. Jack still had his ridges in the form of his markings on his face and down his back along with a long, slimy tail that leaves a nice trail behind him. Lev still had his abdomen, filled to the brim with toad eggs, along with his wings. But now they were useless, fully unable to support his fat ass. The scar on his face having merged into a pattern on his slimy skin. Lastly there was Mark, the largest out of them. His already hefty frame was blown out to absurd proportions. His long ropey tail switching behind him. Making his tail act like some kind of slimy paint brush. The hair is constantly lubricating and leaving a nice constant dribble down his ass and legs. Slime leaks from his ears and his horn was now covered in the same toad like patterns, small bumps across it. With one last firm pump all three of them blow their load. Cumming again and again, croaking out in bliss as they paint the trees and ground around them with their thick, slimy seed. Over the course of the next few days news began to spread around town about the three people that had gone missing in the swamp, and the strange noises that echoed through the trees late at night. Stories began to spread, and as such people began to come around. Collage bros looking for a place to haze new frat mates, thrillseekers and cryptid hunters looking for the next big score. The three friends, no matter what, would always catch their prey, finding them somewhere in the swamp. One group in specific were a group of three friends, unlike the three of them they stuck together for the most part. Staying close and it seemed they might be able to get out of there safely. But they wandered a bit too deep into the woods. As they passed into the deepest parts of the swamp the trio soon heard that loud croak echo through the halls. Jumping in surprise the three of them quickly start to look around, trying to find the source of the sound. Soon their eyes land on the two massive toad-like creatures behind them. While they couldn’t get a good look at them at first they realized these things almost seemed to look like a strange twisted mix of toads and other animals, specifically a reptile of sorts and an insect. The three friends were at a loss for what to do and quickly turned tail and ran. Two of them are able to get away, however one of them is grabbed by the toad monsters, pulling him in and slowly dragging him off, kicking and screaming the whole while. The two of them keep running, panting and heaving as they run. Though not watching where they were running the two of them become even more lost in the woods. As they eventually slow down the two jump behind a tree, hoping to hide as they hear footsteps quickly approaching. The footsteps soon pass and the two of them exhale softly, not paying much mind to the sound of creaking overhead, the trees moving and bending as a large toad crawls above them. Covered in rhino-esq markings. His tongue rolls out shooting as it sticks to one of their heads. Yanking one of the furs back and into the air, a yelp leaves his mouth before he’s grabbed and held with one hand, the frog soon dropping down on the other friend, slamming his ass down onto him. Pushing the man’s face deep into his gaping pucker, flooding his mind with stink as he squirms and struggles under. Eventually getting back up to the toad once known as Mark picks up the other guy as well, waddling back towards the center of the swamp.. Where their home was. As they reach it, the two men arrive just in time to see their other friend getting shoved under water. Holding him under for a few seconds before being yanked back up. Already the man’s body was starting to bloat up. Growing nice and fat as his features distort and twist into that of a toad, tongue rolling out his transformation going smoothly and quickly as any hints of intelligence fades from his eyes. The two of them watch on as their friend is let go to shakily stand back, wobbling with a lack of balance, tongue shooting out to catch some of the flies in the air. Mark croaks out something that vaguely sounds like a dumb, mindless chuckle as he hops into the water. Still holding the two first under his water, dunking their heads into the water. Right away the toad is swarmed by countless tadpoles, all of them quickly getting to work. Worming their way into the furs’ heads. Starting their transformation by covering their forms in slime. Hopping out of the water he tosses the two of them to the ground Like their other friends their bodies were already starting to fatten up heavily, growing nice and fat. Faces fattening and eyes bulging as they start to look around in many different directions. Simply trying to gain control of the situation, but it wouldn’t matter too much as their intelligence is swiftly drained from them. Leaving them to the whim of whatever instincts the tadpoles put into their mind. All three of them let out monstrous corals. Countless others echoing in response. Even in their mindless dumbed down state they knew one thing.. They would have to expand soon.
