FizzBang Booster Gels Product Line
Experiment: #23-FG-15c

Subject: Casey Delaware "Rush"
Overseer: Dr. Kirk Wistrom
Materials Used: 40 ml Fizzbang Booster Gel formula G-15c "Wild Cherry Charger"

Observations: As with formula G-13a, Subject Delaware displayed rapid pigmentation change, taking on a bright red colour to his fur. Two minutes after ingestion, subject claimed to feel "Toasty". Recorded temperature in observation room began to rise significantly. Subject's external body heat began to spike, rising to above 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Subject grew restless, displaying no signs of fever. Room evacuated of personnel as subject body temperature increased to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. At 450 degrees, subject's clothes were incinerated. Subject Delaware began to burn the floor beneath his feet and fire safety measures were activated. All water in Subject Delaware's immediate vicinity evaporated, filling the room with steam. Last recordings within the observation area can decipher Subject Delaware's announcement to go "Somewhere fireproof".

Security indicates breach in observation entrance and another spike in temperature beyond 1000 degrees Fahrenheit. Investigation concluded that Subject's body heat reduced the observation room's security door to molten slag.
Security logs track a long trail of smoldering footprints through the eastern side of the building as Subject Delaware ran for the nearest exit, leaving burning paper, bubbling paint and very sweaty employees in his wake.

15 minutes after exposure, external security reports massive perimeter damage on eastern side of the fourth floor. Slow motion cameras capture Subject running at normal speeds of 100 kph, then swerving to avoid Liaison Sara Bellejo as she exited the elevator. Bellejo had reported to facility premises shortly after being informed of the day's testing, despite efforts to keep the procedure confidential.
Subject Delware exited the Pravus Building fourth floor via the eastern wall. External infrared cameras overloaded briefly after recording a thermal spike in excess of 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. The six inches of concrete, glass and steel between the interior hallway and outside were melted and destroyed by subject body heat near instantaneously, creating a molten, six foot hole. Seconds later, a similar hole was burned through the outer perimeter gate.
Liaison Bellejo recorded remaining in the hallway, staring out of the recently created hole until the fire suppression systems went off.

Recovery teams were dispatched to track Subject Delaware, following the occasional trail of soot and molten pavement and reports of sudden flash fires. Eventual searching located Subject Delaware on the fringes of the Mojave Desert, a quarter mile from a gas station resting in a small crater of scorched glass. 30 minutes after ingestion, Subject was recorded with a descending internal temperature of 350 degrees fahrenheit and had salvaged scrap fabric from a tarp to make a rudimentary loincloth. Liaison Bellejo arrived on site within the hour and was the first to approach Subject Delaware and make contact, describing him as “Very, very warm.”
While negotiating transport back to facilities and containment procedure, Subject Delaware complained of feeling gassy and developed a noticeable paunch in his belly. Suspecting the same rapid onset weight gain triggered by formula G-13a, a flatbed truck was requisitioned. Subject Delaware’s midsection began to rapidly expand, but with minimal loss of mobility. Sara Bellejo on contact confirmed that Subject Delaware was filling with gas, and encouraged his standard evacuation procedure of belching, to no effect. Subject Delaware’s dimensions were gradually enveloped by his expanding midsection, reaching a nearly spherical shape within two minutes of initial bloating, at a circumference of seven feet. Delware complained of feeling “Hot, tight and naked again.” After reaching a ten foot diameter, the subject lost contact with the ground and began to rise into the air. Liaison Bellejo attempted to anchor him, only realizing her weight was not enough to pull him down when both of them had risen to over 30 feet in the air.

Wind caught the two and pushed them back towards downtown Sterling. By the time he had reached the city limits, subject Delaware had reached 14 feet in diameter and risen to 200 feet. Liaison Bellejo remained hanging from one of his hands. Attempts to intercept Subject Delaware as he drifted through Midtown could not be mobilized in time. Two hours after ingestion, Subject Delaware began to descend, eventually landing offshore of Longview Beach. Retrieval teams managed to intercept Sara Bellejo, who had finally let go in the shallows, and help push the subject to shore. Transport was arranged and Subject Delaware was returned to holding and observation facilities. Observed internal temperature was recorded at 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Subject remained inert and under observation, content with basic amenities until 20 hours after ingestion, at which point subject began to burp consistently for the next two hours, gradually decreasing in diameter. 22 hours after ingestion, Subject Delaware had regained former dimensions and functionality. Cherry flavour and red pigmentation had rescinded by next morning.


Conclusions: Analysis shows that formula G-15c causes cellular structure of Asset Delaware to vibrate at high speeds, generating intense friction that manifests as heat. Asset Delaware proves resistant to this internal friction, but air and materials in his presence are vulnerable. Asset Delaware generates enough heat to incinerate fragile materials in the immediate vicinity and melt metal and stone on contact.
Approximately 30 minutes after initial reaction, Asset Delaware's internal temperature begins to drop as molecular vibration slows. Subsequent bloating is caused by standard gaseous build-up within Delaware's physiology, heated by accelerated body temperature to the point of achieving aerial buoyancy in a phenomenon similar to a hot air balloon. As temperature reduces, buoyancy rescinds and buildup is vented via standard means.
Due to highly destructive nature of initial mutation, Wild Cherry Charger not recommended for supplementary equipment. Potential collateral damage threatens to exceed compensatory and legal retainer budget.
Public incident following test of Formula G-15c handled by Fizzbang marketing department as an advertisement gone awry. Asset Delaware scheduled to offer public apology during reveal party for Wild Cherry Charger flavored Booster Gel.

Addendum 1a:
Request that Liaison Sara Bellejo be barred from interfering in any further testing. Her presence is directly warping results.

Addendum 1b:
You're welcome to try and stop her.

Another gel test gone awry, wreaking new havoc on Casey's malleable form.
