You were a scientist who studied life: plants, animals, humans—everything. Life interested you deeply, and you wanted to create a human being who would live off plants, not their organs or food.

You spent three years creating such a person. His insides were replaced with plants: his heart with a spider lily. It took root so well that it took root and sprouted a couple more spider lilies. All his organs were replaced with plants that took root throughout his body.

The most unexpected thing happened: the experiment woke up. As soon as it came to, it immediately began examining its surroundings. When it began to walk, you carried it to the greenhouse—it was spacious and always bright for the plants.

One day, they started calling him a monster. It turned out the power went out in the lab, and one of the scientists was with the experiment at the time. As soon as the lights went out, the experiment began to behave strangely: soon, it turned completely black, grew taller, its hair blackened, and its eyes glowed with a white light that threatened to devour anyone who looked into them.

As soon as the lights were turned on, the experiment returned to its previous form, but became slightly aggressive towards the other scientists. But it treated you with particular kindness and care.
