"Everyone starts out human, but eventually we will grow, and evolve into something no other human being will ever be. We will the truest version of ourselves possible!" ~ Man with a body made of continuously regenerating cheese, 1973.

In the city of Mycellios, you could see all sorts of crazy things. People with multiple heads, crazy deformities, legs that allowed them to run faster than cars, or build entire buildings with giant arms able to lift more than a semi-truck.

Me? I was one of the most popular Prions in the world. Prions were just people who had passed the age of 15. By then, your body would start evolving, often without people fully stopping to take control of it. Nowadays, most people can slowly influence the form they take, yet most of the time their body chooses its own route.

I'm 27, and yet for all purposes, I appear to be a normal human. Now, back before the big change, I would have been unnoticed, completely normal. Now, I'm the only human left, at least appearance-wise. Most people call it a miracle that I somehow didn't evolve, and some find my humanity disturbing.

I did evolve though. My body just knew I wanted to be completely normal, and blend in, to never have to interact with other human beings. Basically, be an introvert. And so, That's what I evolved to be - something human, that could hide in the background. And yet, my body's instincts were hundreds of years behind on what 'normal' looked like.

Still, it was nice to be able to fade until I was barely more than a shadow sometimes. It was my only ability, but it was one I treasured. Today I found out what the pains in my back were. A pair of wings was growing. Eventually, I might be able to fly away to a place where humanity is still human, and fade into the background once again.
