The Birth of Atomic Dog
DISCLAIMER: Atomic Dog's stories take place before Lunar Corgi. In this time, Luna would be five years old, while Benjamin Beaglesworth is in his late twenties.
In Muttsberg circa 1984, Benjamin Beaglesworth is a young science professor who was teaching at Sheperd High School. While conducting a field trip at the local power plant, as a worker was showing the new atomic reactor, a student, a male german sheperd named Sammy, who was a skilled footbal player and a whiz at science and match, while having good grades at his other classes, raised his hand.
"Excuse me, but isn't that kind of energy dangerous? Atomic energy can cause radiation if one is not careful," Sammy said.
"Good question. Don't worry. We have taken extra precautions to make sure this is safe," the worker said as he flipped the switch. However, Benjamin would soon feel some of the radiation flowing through him as he felt strange. Sometime after the field trip, Benjamin decided to go home when he saw a car about to fall off the bridge. Either not thinking straight or wanting to help, he got to the back bumper and started pulling when a transformation took place, as his body started to grow muscles, as his suit tore away from the stress, his pants being reduced to shorts that fell off, revealing his blue briefs with white waistband, and his shirt was torn open. After he got the car to safety, he saw the other onlookers in shock and looked at himself, seeing what he has become.
"What happened to my work clothes? Then again, what happened to my body? This wasn't that muscular," Benjamin said as he saw a news van coming, as he decided to leave, jumping up as he found out he could fly. Later, at home, Benjamin removed what remained of his clothes, leaving only his underwear, as he looked at himself in the mirror.
"Whoa, Sammy was right about that atomic generator. Somehow, some of the radiation seeped into me, causing me to transform my body into that of a bodybuilder's," Benjamin said as he did some poses. Afterwards, he thought about how to become normal, and his body shrunk back to its normal shape.
"Amazing. I have the power to change from a scrawny science teacher to a buff hound with the ability to fly at will. I need to use these powers for good, but first, I need to make a costume to avoid another wardrobe malfunction," Benjamin said. And thus, getting a special spandex material that a scientist made that can withstand growth without tearing, he fashioned a green suit in a long-sleeved shirt and pants with black trim on the pants, a yellow collar, and black boots. After suiting up, he looked in the mirror as he transformed, the suit holding in place. Soon, he took a red piece of the fabric and attached it to the collar, making it into a cape.
"Goodie. With my newfound strength and powers, I will defend Muttsberg as Atomic Dog," Benjamin said as he posed.
