Jemma bustled around the lab at high speed, making adjustments to the machine on the bench. In truth, she was slightly apprehensive about using it. This technology was untested, unprecedented.
Concentrating on her breathing to keep herself calm, she removed a test-rat from its cage. She placed the rat into the machine and switched it on.
"1, 2, 3," she counted under her breath.
Looking in to the machine, she saw that it had worked. Two rats now sat in the bottom of the box. She smiled to herself, just about keeping from squealing. She did a little hop, turned around, then froze.
"Oh. This is new."
