Noting the commotion, Professor Steamhead looked over his shoulder and shook his head. "It won't do you any good. Those kevlar straps can retain up to half a ton of force. There's no way a mere 480 lbs panda like yourself can break through that.
Narrowing his eyes, Genma-panda somehow held up a sign with his teeth. [Why are you doing this!? What's so important about finding out how I change forms!?]
Turning around fully to face Genma, Steamhead cleared his voice. "Why is it important? To be honest, no reason in particular. I'm just curious."
Genma-panda flipped the sign around. [WHAT!?]
"Why yes." Prof Steamhead said. "As a scientist, it is my nature to try and find out all I can about the world around me. And frankly, I find your transformation with water quite fascinating... Especially since it falls into my area of specialty."
Genma-panda flipped the sign around again. [Huh? You study transformations?]
Shaking his head, Steamhead explained, "No, dear Mr. Panda. STEAM!"
Blinking his eyes, Genma flipped the sign in his mouth yet again. [Steam?]
"Yes, steam!" Prof. Steamhead smiled. "Steam is the cleanest form of power in the world. If you believe in the power of steam, nothing can get in your way..." Then after a moment, Steamhead added, "Except those refusing to fund your work..."
Genma-panda sweat-dropped. Flipping the sign yet again, his sign said, [What does my transformation have to do with steam!?]
"Water." Prof Steamhead said. "Water is where we get steam from. Heated water is changed to steam through evaporation. Now imagine, if you change with water... Imagine the possibilities I can come up with STEAM! I could change people with a nice mist of Steam. Imagine! People would finally have respect for steam that it deserves!!!"
Prof. Steamhead then broke out into a fit of maniacal laughter. Genma-panda just struggled against the kevlar straps some more, the sign in his mouth read, [I don't wanna die!!!].
Steamhead stopped laughing as he noticed the sign. "By the way, HOW do you do that?"
Genma-panda shrugged. [It's a gift.]
"Oh." Prof. Steamhead said. Sighing, he went to work. "Ah well, enough chit-chat. Time for the vivisection!" Steamhead said as he held up a chainsaw and pulled on the cord.
There was much screaming in the halls of Quagmire High School...
