"Charles! Wake up it's time for school!"

	Chester groaned as his mother's voice passed through his room.

"Thanks mom I'll be down in a second!" He called back. "Why does she have to use that name?" Chester grumble to himself as he climbed out of bed the soft carpent tickleling his bare feet.

"*sigh*Well here goes another school day..." And with that he made his way downstairs.

	Reaching the kitchen Chester found his mother making pancake in her usaul attire, a simple blouse and skirt with her apron and a pair of low heeled pumps, Her brown hair done up in a bun.

"Hey mom what's up?"

"Oh nothing really, and how was your sleep dear?" His mother replied with a smile.

"Pretty good actually, how about you?" He said before sitting down at the table.

	She turned holding two full plates and came over before saying. "Just fine, thank you for asking."

"No problem, so is dad really coming over tomorrow?"

"Of course he is, he couldn't miss his son's eighteenth birthday."

"Humph, I don't see why not he's missed all my other ones..."

"Charles, you know he's been very busy." She said in a concerned tone.

"Doing what!?!" He suddenly yelled "I mean hell I've never even seen him and suddenly he's going to show up for my birthday!"

"Charles stop, you wouldn't understand right now why your dad hasn't been able to see you." She was unfazed by his sudden outburst.

"Why wouldn't I understand?"

"You'll find out why tomorrow alright just eat your breakfast and get ready to go." His mom snapped back effectively ending the subject.

	Chester grumbled to himself before starting on his pancakes. Before long he and his mother had finished and she started to clean up while he went to get dressed. 

	Rummaging through his dresser he pulled out his favorite pair of fadded grey cargo pants, and a plain orange t-shirt. Putting them on he grabbed a pair of sock and sneakers and made his way to the bathroom. Inside Chester looked at himself in the mirror, his messy brown hair hung just above his eyes which were a forest green color. Other than that he looked like a typical somewhat nerdy teenager, in fact the only thing that made him unique were the stark white highlights in his hair which he was born with. Never once did he think it was odd having the highlights, he like it and it wasn't like they were doing anything so why not?

	Several knocks sounded from the front door. "I got it!" Chester called. Running downstair he opened they door and before him stood a girl about his age maybe alittle younger with dark auburn hair made into a ponytail and hazel eyes. She wore a black sweat jacket and jeans with a backpack slung over her shoulder.

"Hey Belle, come in I'll be ready in a sec."

	Following him inside she sat down on the couch just as Chester's mom entered the room.

"Hi Mrs.Tanner! How are you today?" Belle said cheerfully.

"Just fine Belle and how are you?"

"Awesometastic as usual."

"Hey mom?" Chester asked

"Yes Charles?"

"Sorry for earlier..."

	His mom's gentle smile return. "It's alright, I know your nervous thats all."

	Finishing up his routine Chester gave his mom a hug before gathering up his stuff and he and Belle left together. It was a normal cold winter morning and the walk to school was pretty boring that is until Belle spoke up.

"So you excited?"

"For what?" He replied dryly

"What do you mean for what? Your turning eighteen tomorrow!"

"So?"

"So that means your legal dude! You can do just about anything an adult can!" Belle exclaimed.

"Yeah but first I would need an I.D, and I don't have the twenty bucks to get it."

"Oh right forgot about that, well what about you seeing your dad isn't that exciting?"

"Not really, I'm more nervous than anything. I mean I have never seen him in my life and now all of a sudden he's going to show up? What's up with that?" Chester explained.

"I guess your right, but at least you will get to see him..."

	Chester looked up at Belle, she looked like she staring out into space like there was something on her mind. "Hey sorry I know about your dad..."

"It's cool dude, my dad fucked up and now he's paying for it..."

	There was a long pause between the two friends before Chester chimed in. "By the way did you study for the english test?"

	Belle's eyes went wide with surprise. "Oh shit! I didn't even realize we had a test today!" Chester burst into laughter. "What's so funny Chester?"

	It took a second but he was able to compose himself  and replied. "It's just that there isn't a test, I just wanted to see how you would react." A smile crept across her face before punching him in the arm.

"Jerk."

"Your the one who wanted to be my friend." He replied cheerfully.

	The two shared another laugh as the approached the highschool.

		.			.			.		

"I'm home!" Chester called out.

"Hi dear, how was your day?" His mom called back.

"Tireing, there was a pop quiz in english and math, then Mr. Doan had us running laps all day for gym, and finally we started work on our midterm in Drawing."

"Wow, looks like you had a full day."

"Tell me about it..."

"Well lets see I got you up this morning and we had pancakes then..."

"Mom." She looked down at Chester on the couch giving her a knowing look.

"What? you said tell me about it." She joked.

"Ha ha, anyways I think I'm going to go watch some tv in my room."

"Alright dear."

	Making his way upstairs he kicked off his shoes and flopped onto his bed and turned on the tv to start watching some cartoons, within the next couple of hours he passed out.

		.				.				.

	Chester awoke with a start and found that night had fallen outside, turning his head he saw that the clock display twelve eleven. Chuckling to himself he turned back.

"Ironic that I wake up one minute from the time I was born..."

	The clock turned and a tingle was sent through Chester's body, before resting in his feet.

"What the...?"

	Thinking they had just fallen asleep he look down toward them and nearly freaked at the sight. It looked like his toes were swollen in his socks and upon closer inspection he could see them growing still, but it wasn't just his toes both feet were expanding a steady rate. Sitting up his eyes were still locked onto the sight as they started to grow faster quickly filling up any loose room in his socks before starting to stretch them out as well. Chester felt his toes warp inside the cotton and he grimace, not because he was in pain but because of the odd pulling and melding feelings.

RRRRRIIIIIIPPPPPP!!!!!

	Chester barely had time to react as the loud tearing sound filled the room and two large cartoon like rabbit feet stuck out of the front of his ruined socks. They had pure white fur except for the three toes which were a chocolate brown color. He wiggle his huge toes experimentaly before his feet surged with growth one last time destroying the rest of his socks. The tingle returned this time moving up his legs as the stretched longer leaving his ankles sticking out of his pant legs quite a ways. Chester watched as more white fur quickly moved up his legs, freaking out he pulled off his pants and shirt leaving him in just his boxers just as the fur arrived there.

"What the ooohhhh..."He moan as the fur pooled around his crotch spreading a warmth through the area, but the feeling didn't last long as a new pulling sensation appeared just above hit butt. Looking back he caught the sight of a bulge that had formed and pressed tightly against the back of his boxers breifly before a reverse tear drop tail tore throught the flimsy fabric

	More pulling and stretching sensations occured and Chester could have swore that he heard rubber being pulled as his torso legthened and fur spread up it, most of it white with a large oval of brown fur filling his chest area. His arms pulled out longer thinning alittle in the proccess as the white fur spread down them. An even weirder feeling spread through his hands as them puffed up abit before his ring and middle finger started to meld together. Clearly frightened he shook his hands as they contine to puff and grow. His fingernails dissapeared as small blunt claws replaced them. Brown fur covered the tips as white engulfed the rest.

	Having finished with his now four fingered hand the familiar tingle returned in full force this time in his face. Chester covered his face as it started to pull and stretch in every direction at once. He could feel his nose shifting into a smaller button like rabbit version, and his two front teeth growing into proper bunny buckteeth. By far the oddest sensation was his ears pulling higher and higher above his head and when they had finished his left ear flopped over about half way down.

	Soon after the feelings stopped, and he could feel his heartbeat slowing again. Pulling his face away from his hands and looked around the room for a second.

"What in the world was that?"

	Before he answered himself he caught sight of something at the end of his bed. Curious he carefully made his way over and saw a smallish present sitting there. On the present there was a note simplely saying "Happy Birthday Chester!" Throughly confused he pulled off the top of the present, inside was a pair of gloves but they weren't the normal kind as they looked like they had come straight out of a cartoon even down to the three black stripes along the tops. Feeling compelled to he quickly pulled them on and amazingly he could still feel through them.

"Chester! Can you come down here please?" 

	His mother's voice snapped him out of his stupor. "Coming!"

	'Weird." He thought. 'When did she start calling me Chester?' Not wasting any time he pulled his pants back on (which was more of a chore than he thought it would be.) and made his way downstairs.

		.			.			.

	"Hey mom whats going on? Why am I like thi....." Chester stopped at the entrance to the living room. Expecting to see his mother he was instead met with the sight of a chocolate colored cartoon rabbit wearing his mother's clothing albiet the colors were more vibrant, same blouse, same skirt, same apron, heck even the shoes were the same and weren't oversized like he half expected them to be.

"Mom?"

"Yes dear, come over here and sit for a second." The She-rabbit said.

	Slowly making his way over he sat down next to her. "Now I'm sure you have loads of questions and I would be happy to... actually could you hold on one second." She said before leaning down and began to pull on one of her pumps. Chester watched amazed as she slowy pulled her foot out of her shoe which rapidly plumped up to what he guessed was normal size with a odd rubber stretching sound before with a loud pop her large rabbit foot was freed. She repeated this with her other shoe then leaned back with a sigh of sastifaction.

"Ahhh much better, anyway did you have any questions?"

"Ummm first off how did you do that? My feet just tore through my socks before."

"Well thats because they weren't made out of toon material." She replied.

"What material?"

"Well to put it simply these shoes along with most of my other clothes were made in toon world there for whatever I want to happen to them will, so if I don't want them to stretch or be destroyed they won't."

"Okay I guess I get that but what do you mean toon world?"

"You see there's another dimension that runs almost parallele to this one, were these cartoon characters live and have been known to cross into our dimension."

Chester had a stunned look on his face before replying. "So does that mean your a toon?"

"Not actually, when your father came here..."

"Wait dad's a toon?"

"Yes and thats why he hasn't been able to see you."

"Just because he's a toon?"

"Well actually it's a bit more complicated than that, and anyways we're getting off subject. When your dad came here and we met we fell in love."

"Naturally..."

"Hush now, anyways after spending time with each other one thing led to another and we eventually...well you know..." She trailed off.

"Okay that takes kinky to a whole other level."

"I said hush, don't make me pull a hammer on you."She said sternly and sensing then danger Chester quickly shut up.

"Anyways this in turn changed me into something called a half-toon which is half human half cartoon."

"And I take it that because I'm your son I started out as a half-toon or whatever." He retorted.

"Yes but the reason why you haven't been one this whole time is because your toon side didn't "awaken" until you turned eightteen, as you've just found out."

"Wow that's alot to take in." Chester  said bowing his head slightly. Just then there was a knock at the door.

"Oh that must be your father...Coming!"

She quickly stood up and made her way over to the door, before she opened it she turn to Chester.

"So are you ready to meet your dad?"

	Looking up he took a second to think before nodding to her.
