The Shapeshifter and the Oil Tycoon

Date: 4/17/2022

I was a man who could shapeshift into animals, and I had to defeat a villain who was the CEO of some big oil company. He kept trying to kill me but, by the skin of my teeth, I managed to avoid his attacks. He followed me all around the world, until we got to San Francisco and I couldn’t think of anywhere else to run. We had an epic battle: he shot lasers at me and I tried to squash him with my T-Rex form. But I was still barely managing to avoid getting obliterated by his weapons. Meanwhile the crowds around us dissolved into terrified screams. With every attempt, the villain seemed to get closer and closer to taking me out. That is, until I discovered a new power. I admit, I was going out on a limb with this, but for some reason I knew I could do it if I focused enough. Transforming over and over, I swiftly dodged the villain’s attacks and attempted to disorient him. As a bird, I flew all around and got in his face. As a horse, I knocked him about and threw him off balance. Then, as a fish, I dove head-first off a pier and into the ocean. As he fired hot rounds into the water, I transformed one more time and took the shape of a flying insect. Leaping out of the water, I managed to avoid his notice. I creeped up behind him and changed back into my human form. Then, clearing my mind of all thoughts, I pointed an outstretched finger towards him. In a flash, the madman was gone. And as I peered down at the ground, a little hermit crab was in his place. Smiling, I gingerly picked up the crab and chucked it into the ocean.
