Having gone on another shopping spree she had just got home, she had to have help lifting the bags of shopping into her room, another $20,000 on daddy's credit card, she had already spent her monthly allowance a week ago. It was a cold day and she was wrapped up well: fur bomber jacket $5,000, silk scarf $300, perfect fitting jeans $750 tucked into tall boots $1,500, and some long leather gloves $300 which met the cuff of the fur bomber jacket and a $650 hat which covered her newly groomed blonde locks. As the taxi driver carried her bags into the landing next to her room she gave him her customary $100 tip and then he left. As the door shut Vanessa suddenly felt very alone. Her parents were away and all her friends were busy. Even the staff were enjoying a day off As she clacked across the marble hall floor in her designer boots, she took her hat off and shook her blond locks so they cascaded over her expensively attired back. She was listless, she was bored, there must be something more to life than doing what she was doing, lots of fun things fun friends yet she felt there was more, a longing. She sighed and she pondered. Her years of being bitchy as she grew up had reduced somewhat in recent months since leaving school, but it had been such fun, taunting lesser mortals than herself, sometimes trashing their stuff, generally humiliating them, it had given her such a power trip. There was less scope now but how she missed it, "maybe that is what is missing?", she sighed. She was just about to remove her gloves when she was suddenly distracted by a noise. As she turned round she saw a light on Who was there? She didn't remember the light being on. With a strange mixture of fear and unexpected excitement (something happening) she crept towards the ajar door and pushed it open and looked inside. She couldn't believe what she saw. A complete model city, like her brother's train sets but more elaborate, laid out before her and on the table what looked like a large present with her, Vanessa's, name on. It was however at the other end of the room and the model city was right in the way. The present looked very much like it could be the Tiffany diamond jewellery set she craved, at a cool $500,000 beyond even her spending powers. Could it be? Vanessa suddenly felt excited but how was she to get over to the other side of the room? She looked at the intricate model below her, then almost without hesitation proceeded to crash through the model, her boots smashing to smithereens whatever she trod on, but she was focussed on the gift in front of her, "well, they shouldn't have put the $%^$ing thing on the floor like that", she muttered to herself, so focussed that she scarcely noticed the very realistic sound effects, crashes, crunches, screams even as model buildings, railway lines cars yielded to a boot sole. Presently she got to the table and the gift. Not even removing her gloves she tore at the paper......inside was a phone and the instruction to press for a message. Intrigued she did that:-
"if you hear this message you would have walked across the room and there was no way you could have done so without treading on the model....." Vanessa looked round and a flicker of a smile passed her lips. She turned back. Who was this voice? It was a male voice, young and actually quite sexy. The voice continued "I don't suppose you remember me you were somewhat wasted at the time but you were pouring out your life story even as far as your kinks and fantasies, how you enjoyed being the controlling bitch, how you enjoyed monster movies, the unbridled power of the monsters, how you have trashed things sometimes when you don't get what you want, taunting and humiliating fellow students when at school". Vanessa was speechless. Open mouthed she continued listening. "How did you feel as you walked across the model? I know you secretly enjoyed it, didn't you? Yes I thought so". "Er....". Vanessa couldn't speak...."you can destroy the rest of it if you want". Vanessa couldn't form words but yes there was just a little frisson as she heard the crunching noises as the plastic broke underfoot. "That voice", Vanessa was thinking, "was it one of cool dudes she was chatting up in that club last week? There was one that stood out, unusually handsome and approachable and making her feel so wanted....". Her thoughts were interrupted by that voice "have you wrecked the rest of the model yet? Once you've done that then you can open the other present. She looked round and saw a strange glow round it, a sort of force field which prevented Vanessa from touching it. "It's not the jewellery you wanted, it is much much more, in fact your life won't be the same again, in fact you actually will be able to have as much jewellery as you want after you received the gift. She was at once intrigued and also impatient and irritated that she couldn't open the present yet. So what did she do? She laid into the model with gusto smashing everything to smithereens, at first angrily but then gradually she smiled, yes it was sooo cool. Just as the last building had been flattened, as if by magic the voice started again:- "now you can come and open the present.....". Vanessa looked round, the strange glow had gone. She strolled over to the table and tore open the wrapping. So caught up in what was happening she still had all her outdoor clothes on (and the hat was in her jacket pocket). Just as she opened it, she got a shock, a great cloud of mist came out of the package and surrounded her, she stepped back suddenly and almost choked. Initially annoyed, her flash of anger was soon taken over by a strange warm feeling enveloping her. Then it happened........suddenly there and then in that room she started growing....taller and taller she got...."whoa!" she exclaimed as her body was buffeted as she grew.....soon she was through the ceiling, then through the roof. Her growth accelerated.......the next moments were a blur almost as if she had blacked out, but as suddenly as it started the buffeting and the mist stopped and cleared. So quiet and peaceful.......Vanessa open her eyes.......and then opened them even wider......folding her arms she she looked around.....she was HUGE and she felt so good........she saw how tiny everything was and she smiled........she looked down at her booted feet, surrounded by the wreckage of her parents' house and some neighbouring employee cottages "Wow! This is like so amazing! Cooooool!". She noticed one of the family cars and bent down and picked it up between a slender glove clad thumb and first 2 fingers...."that's so cute", Vanessa said, as she looked at the inch long metal object. "You are now 750 feet tall and you are now free to do whatever you want". It was that voice again. "My gift to you.....". Vanessa looked at the car again and smiled again before crumpling it and dropping it to the ground.....
