Testing the Waters

With just a few weeks remaining until the deadline, Walter decided it was time to give a demonstration of his groundbreaking invention. He knew that the transformation process was still far from perfect, but he needed to show tangible progress to his demanding clients.

Standing before the TGONY-1825, Walter took a deep breath and activated the machine. A bright beam of light shot out, enveloping him completely. Within seconds, his appearance began to change dramatically. His wrinkles smoothed out, his hair turned lighter, and his body transformed into that of an attractive 18-year-old woman. However, his deep, masculine voice remained unchanged, and he knew that the effects would wear off within less than an hor.

Walter stepped out of the light beam, now looking like a completely different person. He practiced walking and moving with the agility of youth, getting used to his new form. "Remarkable," he muttered to himself, his voice still gravelly and at odds with his youthful appearance.

Next, Walter decided to showcase his creation to a select few: his sons Peter and Tim, and his old friend Frank. He wanted to gauge their reactions and gather feedback that could help him refine the machine further.
