Chapter 3: How long?
#3 of An evolutionary milestone.
I decided to pick this up again after so long I've likely skipped some details that should be carried on from the last chapter but I don't know if I'll be writing much soon so on and off let's call this the un-revised version that if It gets somewhere I'll fix things.
Authors note;
This isn't thoroughly proof read and written on an impulse in a couple hours please rate and comment, helps motivate me to write but I want honest opinions so please take in mind my first point and judge on content not gramatical errors, any spotted could be pointed out in the comments if it bothers you so much. Thanks.
-Dave

Two and a half years, had it been so long? The Papers date seemed to confirm that but it just didn't seem right, it felt longer but he couldn't argue with the math. For Two and a half years he'd secluded himself from society, this was the first newspaper he'd looked at since he'd turned himself into an Anthropomorphic Tiger and a year since he'd managed to further splice his DNA, he'd grown a couple feet taller and somewhat wider but now he was all the more intimidating. Many complaints had been received as rumours of him playing god had worked up the public and tabloids and sure in many ways the fear was understandable anything could have happened but as he saw it if anything should have, it would have.
Placing the paper down after glancing over some innocuous scandal of some sort pasted over the front cover the large hermit bit into his bacon cob, another two chomps and it was gone the Anthro left licking his paw "Coming on three years and the News is all the same bull" he comments looking over the dining table to his Assistant, Terri.
"What do you expect you're the only one who's changed after all this time and since you'll not go out or talk to anyone aside me and yourself." She replies turning a page in her book with her tail tip. She had also changed some in that time though not going as far as Dave, having only grown a tail and ears Terri had wanted to go the full mile but someone needed to go to the shops and answer the door to the pizza man.
"Well perhaps it's time we give them some news to write about" The larger scientist says sitting back and patting his belly a little, grinning over to her.
"Only if you can finish your job changing me" Terri says her golden red eyes flicking up to look at him testing his serious tone, he had repeatedly changed his mind when it came to this but that grin said otherwise this time.
"What I've not created enough species already? I thought this was some creators job" he said sarcastically.
"Do I have to get the pan out? You may be a giant Polar bear tiger thing but that doesn't mean I won't whack you, we both know your thicker skull means I can only hit harder" Terri replied only semi-seriously
"Fine we'll start after breakfast I'll get the boring documents just to verify everything for ya then we can start."
