Ken remembered that today was Thursday meaning that he would have to go to the middle school he attended when he was young to help the girls volleyball team with practice and exercises. He took a few minutes to consider if he could trust five preteen girls with his safety while he was only an inch tall, with him being the size of a bug being stepped on by accident was probably his biggest concern. He thought about this for a few more minutes as he packed his coaching bag to go help out the girl, packing the shrink ray in with everything else deciding to trust these girls since they were all older than Kelly and about the same age as his younger sister Rosie. With his decision made and finalized Ken walked downstairs put his bag in the car and drove to the school, where he made his way to the gym.
Ken walked into the gym to see that the net was already up, in addition to this Ken noticed that Katelyn the oldest of the group and Ashley the tallest girl in the group had already began leading the other girls in stretches as a warm up for the coming practice. Ken placed his bag down on the bleachers and called the girls over to talk to them, the maturity they showed in starting without him showed to him that they could be trusted to look over him while he was shrunken. As they came up in-front of him he wondered for a moment what it would be like to look up to these girls, their long legs towering over him like ten tall skyscrapers, it was all a bit intimidating but he couldn't let that discourage him from saying what he came here to ask of them. "Ok girls(he said taking a deep breath) Before we start there's something I want to ask of you, I've been asked to take place in an experiment in return for $50,000 in reward as part of a scholarship in return they've asked that I test out this device." reaching into his bag and pulling out a gun like object.
"Was is it?" Jordon inquired of her temporary coach to which Ken answered "This is a device that some scientists made, it has the power to shrink any person or object, and I wanted to ask you girls if you'd be ok with shrinking me and recording the tests." of course Ken didn't realize that each girl would want to participate so he would have to endure each test five times if they accepted. Jackie jumped in asking "So like how small would you be?" trying to contain her excitement when it came to the thought of having someone shorter than herself, being the shortest girl on the team. "It say's i'd be shrunk to about 1 inch tall, so as small as a fly." Ken said in a nervous tone looking up to see the surprised look on the young girls faces "That tiny?!" yelled out Kimberly who had remained quite until now, the girls smiling as each of them formed different plans for what they could do with someone that small.
"So you're all ok with shrinking me down and making sure everything goes according to plan." he said still sounding like their coach... for now, looking up to see all the girls nodding in agreement to what he had just said. "Great, so who wants to do the honors?" he said extending the device towards the group watching as they huddled together and talked for a minute before the captain and tallest girl on the team Ashley stepped up and took the device pointing it at Ken and smiling before pulling the trigger. Suddenly a array of green light flooded the room nearly blinding the younger girls, before they opened their eyes to see that Ken had seemingly disappeared into thin air until they look at at the floor to see what looked like an ordinary ant. these all stepped forward towards Ken causing the floor to shake in response as they walked toward him and formed a circle to look down at him in. Ken stared in disbelief as a dirty running shoe came down only two inches away from him nearly crushing him underfoot, looking up the long legs that was attached to this foot he could see that the girl who had almost crushed him was non other than Katelyn the oldest girl on the team. "Watch out Katelyn you almost crushed him..." said Jordan sounding momentarily concerned "... the rest of us haven't gotten to have our fun with him just yet." the 10 year old girl laughed. Jackie, probably the girl most excited to see Ken shrink marveled at how small someone a foot taller than her had become so tiny at her feet, he really did look like a fly compared to her and all four of her teammates.
What will the girls do next, will they skip practice or carry on with Ken being so small.
