Jessica sat, squished between two other passengers of the subway car she took to work every morning at 7:30 AM; the air was thick with perfume, cologne, and just general smells of New York's businessmen and women. Jessica was one of these people, working at a law firm that paid generously...at least for anyone not renting in Manhattan. Sure, she could have lived anywhere else after graduating at ESU, but she always loved the idea of taking on the big city, and hopefully Broadway some day. Alas, her dreams of being a star in some musical were dashed away years ago as she was forced to settle with a job where she felt stifled.
The train stopped and the once thick air moved quickly as passengers exited to head for the brisk, morning air before they reached the comfort of their place of work. Jessica moved swiftly, or at least as swiftly as she could as she pushed through the morning crowd. Her stop before work was her chai latte with white chocolate mocha mixed in it at Starbucks, and then it was a five minute walk to work. To her dismay, her favorite coffee place was packed with people, so she simply huffed, pulled up her scarf to warm her cheeks, and continued on to her job.
A detailed overview of the work day would just bore the reader, but it should be noted that on this particular day Jessica had never felt more unnoticed by her superiors. She used to get semi-important jobs around the firm, but today she had simply been sent on coffee runs and left with some menial tasks like cleaning the shelves or washing windows. When she tried to help one of the partners on a case, she was brushed off despite how many times she had assisted them before. It was like she was invisible. Suffice to say, the day just felt like one big disappointment.
So with work out of the way, Jessica found herself in the subway car again, cramped with the evening crowd, only this time she had the weight of the day on her. Not only had she been rejected and overlooked at work, she had also worked her hands to the breaking point cleaning all day and she had to do it without having her morning latte. Now she felt miserable and just wanted to do nothing but get to her apartment and curl up on her couch with a movie on.
Little did Jessica know that her quiet evening would also be ruined...from a certain point of view. Her stress levels had been contained most of the day, and she felt like she might hold it together. All of a sudden, a passenger stood and worked their way past her, but one slight bump on her knee and the stranger tripped and spilled his own coffee all over her; not only was her nice shirt ruined, she also felt the coffee burning her skin. This was the straw that broke the camel's back; with all the stress now pouring out, Jessica screamed, and she felt utter relief as she let her energy loose. Strangely, she felt something else too.
People began screaming around her, and she felt the passengers next to her slide away as she felt her clothing suddenly tear off and the burning sensation stopped. Her stupor ended when her head hit the ceiling of the subway car and she looked around. To her shock, she was not only naked in the car, but she was massive! She took up most of the seat while her legs stretched to the other side of the car; her head brushed the top, and that wasn't the only change. Her breasts were bigger, at least in proportion to her smaller self. She had gotten big, but she had also become bustier and a little more fit if she was being honest. In her head, she figured she was at least 10 feet tall now, nearly double what she was just a moment ago.
Her shock and awe then washed away and she began panicking, hiding her private parts as she looked at the faces around her.
"Um...can somebody help?!"
