Chapter #5
Mismatched
by: Unknown
"Dude: are you getting bigger?"
The lion's words made Fang falter. His heart was still pumping from the adrenaline-boosted action of breaking-and-entering. The words were words that made him flush with excitement.
"What'd you say?" He snarled.
But he already saw the truth of it: Elton, the massive lion and his biggest rival, was looking up at him more than usual. A thousand questions ran through Fang's brain but none of them made it to his lips before a slow, groaning, ripping sound began to shiver in the air. His clothing, already painfully tight, was growing tighter. He felt as if his skin were shrinking but, straining to tilt his head down against his mammoth chest, he saw it was actually his muscles and hide that were growing.
More than that, his height was increasing.
The metallic tang in the air made his noise itch and he stifled a sneeze.
"Guys? I'm not feeling so hot."
Carl had moved over to a sofa and sat down. All eyes moved from Fang to him and with good reason. As they watched, Carl the Clydesdale seemed to get ... smaller.
"Oh Jesus," Elton muttered. "What's happening to him?"
"What's happening to him?" echoed Rich. "What's happening to you?"
The looked back at the lion with the bear's exclamation. The enormous, buff lion -like Carl- was shrinking.
"What's going on?" Fang demanded.
His body continued to grow and he felt his shoes starting to pop at the seams. Meanwhile, his four fraternity brothers were all getting smaller. Even the lanky, large kangaroo, Marcus, was dwindling -very slowly- to a tinier size.
"Dude: call that egghead dragon, Tyler. Call him!"
