You are standing by a tree
There are 3 paths.
One appears to go to a jungle,
one appears to go to a cave,
one appears to go to a beach,
you could try and climb the tree,
there is a nearby shop you could go in,
or you could do something else.
So what's its going to be?

You sit under the tree
You sit under the tree.
Suddenly...

See? Keep moving or you get tranked. That's how the game is played.
Your relaxing moment under the tree is rudely interrupted by an abrupt transformation. You are hit by a tranquilizer dart, which turns you into a person with a tranquilizer dart stuck in their neck. It's an easy change. Of course, your train of thought gets about as far as "Oh good heavens, a dart of some kind. I'd betteeerrgmphqq," at which point the dart takes effect, and you slump under the tree like a drugged-up rag doll. A half-hearted twitch is all the moving you do for quite some time. Eventually, you wake up. When you do, you are...

The Institute
Whatever was in the tranquilizer, it's not very eager to wear off. In the vague fog between awake and asleep, you learn that you are in a sitting position, in a mildly comfortable chair, and there is a nice-sounding voice welcoming you to the Transformational Institute.
Your mind clears. You are in what appears to be some sort of lobbey. The walls are covered with mirror tiles (probably one-way mirrors hiding cameras, you note), as are the ceiling and floor. There is also a plain white desk, with an attractive woman in a labcoat sitting behind it.
On the wall behind her you see an elevator, and a frightening-looking black double door marked "Main Lab." On the wall to your right, there is a far friendlier door with a smiley face on it and a large orange "Welcome" painted on it. The woman in the labcoat smiles at you.
"Just pick a door and you'll be on your way."
So, which door do you pick?

The Main Lab
Feeling brave, you pass through the imposing double doors and find yourself in a seemingly endless hallway. On either side are doors. The door behind you is locked, so your only option is to pick a new door. Where do you go from here?

This is Botany?
You go through the door marked "Botany Lab." Plants seem very non-creepy.
Unfortunately, you're greeted only by another long hallway. After a few twists and turns, you find more doors. Which one do you go through now?

Experimental Plants, Eh?
You enter a modestly large room filled with various plants that seem vaguely familiar, but not quite right, somehow. You don't get a chance for a second look, when a hurried-looking woman in a lab coat bumps into you.
"Oh, nuts. They sent another subject, didn't they?" She asks you exasperatedly. "I'm sorry, but I'm in no mood to deal with more subjects. Ah well, it's part of the job. Um..." She searches around for something to test on you, finally settling on the contents of her pockets. She pulls out a bluish-purple tomato-like thing, a blade of very long, jet-black grass, and some fluorescent green lettuce. "Pick one of these and eat it. And don't take all day, dang it, I've still got to work on some fertilizers."
The woman certainly seems like the type you wouldn't want to keep waiting. Then again, you don't want to just eat something that a frazzled botanist pulls out of her pocket. Those things could literally be ANYTHING. What do you do.

No fury like a botanist scorned
"No," you say. "I'm not eating some disgusting mutant vegetables just to make your job easier."
The woman is unphased.
"Fine," she replies, stuffing the plants back in her pocket. "You can't leave until you've been tested, those doors won't open for you." She gestures vaguely at the doors. "Just poke around, be careful not to damage anything TOO much, and I'm sure something will happen sooner or later." And with that, she walks off.
So...you're trapped in an experimental plant lab. You have permission to play around, but with the assurance that you'll hurt yourself...what now?

Looking around
You browse the long rows of odd-looking plants. Nothing really appears all that interesting, until you come across a big sky blue flower. It is, beyond a doubt, the most beautiful flower you've ever seen. But at the same time, you smell something. It's not coming from the flower, but from a tangle of vines nearby. Do you take a closer look at the flower, or the vines?

the vines
You approach the vines. Suddenly they shoot out and grab a hold of one of your legs.
You try to pull them off but they just keep pulling you closer to the centre of the plant.
You shout for help but no one appears to have heard you.
You look at the plant to see what appears to be a mouth.
You keep trying to pull the vines off but you fail.
Your leg is now almost inside the mouth.

keeps screaming for help
You keep screaming for help but this only seems to make the plant more angry. Another set of vines wrap around your other leg.
You keep trying to pull the vines off. Now your right arm has vines on it.
You look and see that your waist is now in the mouth.

stuggle some more
You struggle but it does little good. Your body has moved even further into the mouth.
You scream for help but once again nobody comes to your aid. Your body is now up to it shoulders in the mouth.
You struggle some more but your neck deep into the mouth now.
You look at the plant. You can't see much due to the fact that your almost completely swallowed by the plant.

Keep Struggling
You struggle some more but it does no good.
You are now completely inside the plant and the mouth closes leaving you in darkness.
You feel around. You find a torch and turn it on.
You look around and find that your on a small island. The vines that took you in here are in the liquid. They look to be dissolving.
You walk around the island and slip. Your right hand lands in the liquid and is dissolved. Now your right arm ends in a stump.

Look at the liquid
You look at the liquid realising it is an acid.
You get up and keep walking. You then realise that the island is sinking into the acid.
You climb onto the highest point but the acid is just below you.
You look at it again and the island goes beneath the liquid.
You look around one last time as the acid dissolves your body.

Reborn?
you whimper a little as you are dissolved.
Suddenly you can see again. You try to move your arm and a vine flashes passes your field of vision.
You look around. You appear to be in the lab where you got eaten by the plant.
You try to talk but nothing happens.
You try to look at yourself but you can't. Your eyes don't seem to be able to move.
Quickly your mind comes to the conclusion that you are now a plant creature just like the one that ate you.

The end (for now)
