For a long moment nothing happened and the young red dragon began to grow impatient. He sat tapping his claws waiting, then he began pacing back and forth.
It was a fact his father had relayed to Spyro on several occasions, that Blaze had two major problems at his young age. the first was something of a temper, though he kept it in check around his family for the most part. the other was he was far too impatient, expecting things to happen faster than they did. The truth of the matter was he'd barely been waiting a minute, but to Blaze it seemed much longer.
"What's taking so long?" the dragon grumbled, "Don't tell me I this is all fake."
He huffed and sat down again feeling decidedly gypped. However just as he was debating whether to leave or take another drink from the Lake he felt a strange sensation crawl through his body. It was a tingling twitching sensation that seemed to settle into his stomach.
Blaze looked down just as his stomach surged forward in a small spurt. It was barely a inch or so, but it happened again a moment later with a sound like stretching rubber accompanied by a small pop. It took him a moment to realize his head was also a bit higher off the ground, it wasn't just his belly that had swelled, but his back too. His whole torso was disproportionately larger by the slightest degree.
The process wasn't done though as he felt it begin to spread. He watched his legs as the tingling moved down one and then the other, his right front leg expanded from the shoulder to his elbow, then from the elbow to his arm and then his hand with each finger popping one after the other as they grew. Then his left front leg did the same, followed by each of his back legs. His tail gave a strange pulling sensation as it lengthened out by almost half a foot. Each wing gave a series of rapid pops as one and then the other expanded across his back.
A wave of dizziness caught him as his neck rose with several more pops, thickening too. His eyes crossed as the nostrils on the top of his nose popped first one and then the other, then his snout lengthened over all. His horns grew in with soft creaks before his vision shifted as each eye enlarged to match his expanded head.
When all was said and done he shook his head trying to gauge what happened. Near as he could guess looking at his footprints from entering the cave, he was about one and a half times larger than before.
"It's not much bigger," he admitted to himself and smiled as his voice was slightly deeper than before, "But it's nice. It's a head start on any future growth spurts. Still I wouldn't have minded if it kept...going..."
Blaze trailed off as the tingle had returned. He wasn't done yet.
His eyes drifted down to his clawed feet and watched as has they gave a series of pops growing bigger. And bigger. And bigger. By the time they paused each of his clawed feet were as large as his whole torso and the clawed toes were as thick as his legs. That didn't look like it would last long though as the tingling surged up through him. It seemed to bypass his legs for the moment though and go right to his belly and torso, swelling both bigger and rounder as he was slowly forced up off the ground.
"Maybe this wasn't such a good idea..." Blaze muttered as he watched his snout grow out further, extending longer than his neck with nostrils that looked like they could snort boulders. His whole body popped and groaned, surging in various ways as his smaller pieces tried to catch up with his larger ones. He was getting back to normal proportions slowly but just how large would he end up?
