Pancake gets some Hymenoptera DNA

Who: Justin Pancake, Rosette LaChance
Where: McDonalds
When: After Seymour gets put in a burger, and the terrapins turn up and blow
stuff up
<snip>
At the other side of the room, the terrapin's shell-mounted gun lit up and an
explosion destroyed a wall tile behind Justin's head. It sent a large knife the
length of a bus spinning towards him fast.

The knife helicopetered so fast that if it caught Justin in it's path, it would
have sliced him up into several thin pieces as it passed.
He ran as fast as he could in the opposite direction, which unfortunately lead
to a sheer cliff-face when he ran out of kitchen cabinet to walk on. Justin
leaped from this precipice and into the air, not even knowing what was
underneath. Of course it was only a few feet to the ground, but at his current
size, this was like a half-mile drop.
He hoped there would be something soft to break his fall, like a towel, or a
burger bun. But sadly there was nothing except the ground itself. Luckily the
ground was covered in a thick layer of grease, so he landed on his ass with a
"splat" sound.
The knife however wasn't far behind. It had also slipped off the precipice and
due to the force of gravity was on it's way down towards him. It looked like it
was going to follow the exact same path as him.
The knife stopped spinning and straightened up as it fell, careening towards him
like an arrowhead. It threatened to embed itself into the floor, passing
straight through his skull and body, splitting his backbone in two.
Justin tried to get up, but as he had fallen, he had embedded himself into a
crater of grease, making it hard for him to now get up quickly. All he could do
was wince, close his eyes, and prey for whatever god he believed in. As he
didn't believe in a Human god, the deranged man wondered if the Hymenoptera had
one. And how he'd like to meet them very soon.
Strangely enough, very strangely in fact. That Hymenoptera god (if it existed)
seemed to hear his prayer. A green spider-like creature jumped up, spun, and
struck the knife with a mighty swipe of a preying-mantis-type claw. The event
was so momentous that it happened in slow motion in Justin's vision.
He watched in awe as Rosette pushed the knife off it's trajectory as it fell,
causing the hefty metal object to move by just a few centimeters.
It embedded itself into the floor an inch away from him, and vibrated
dramatically.
Justin sat in shock, and looked up. Rosette was hanging from a spider-web, and
slowly reeled herself down to the ground.
"Why did you do that?" he asked. "You didn't have to save me. I thought you
hated me."
Rosette didn't say anything to begin with. "Don't flatter yourself. I still hate
you and your pathetic Hymenoptera-worship." She said. "If I didnt save you and
you died, well... great. But now that I HAVE saved you, people will believe I'm
helpful and not just a monster that wants to take over the ship."
"Ah." Said Justin.
Then he noticed that as Rosette turned from her spider-like form back into a
Human, her hand was bleeding green blood.
A normal person here would express compassion at the sight of someone bleeding.
Justin merely stared at the green blood, transfixed by it. Rosette found a
napkin the size of a double bed and tore off a small section to cover her wound.
"You're welcome." She said.
"What?" Said Justin, still looking at the blood.
Rosette waved her cut hand at him. "I saved your life, and injured myself as I
did it." She said. "And you didn't even say thanks."
"Oh yeah, thankyou." Said Justin.
Rosette walked away, shaking her head.
Justin stood up quickly, watching her walk away.
Then he tore off some of the same napkin and used it to mop up a puddle of
Rosette's spilt green Hymenoptera blood. The blood soaked through into the
napkin, leaving a green spot on it.
Justin held the bloodied napkin up to his face. "Hymenoptera blood!" He
exclaimed. "Real Hymenoptera blood!"
He wasted no time and bounded over to Dr Keto, who he found just outside the
entrance of the shop, underneath on of the tables outside.
"Dr Keto, Dr Keto!" Justin shouted. "I have a sample of Hymenoptera blood!"
"And?" Said Keto.
"Well, remember I told you I wanted to be a Hymenoptera, so that I could be as
powerful as Rosette?"
Keto sighed deeply. "Oh that. I hoped you were just kidding."
Justin shook his head furiously. "No. I'm deadly serious. This is the future of
Humanity! The evolution of the Human race!" He said enthusiastically.
Keto slapped his forehead with his hand. "So what do you want ME to do about
it?"
"I want you to inject me with Hymenoptera DNA." Justin said.
