(Same loser from the thumb puffing gentle arc. Want to finish the base three for the gentle line before going into anything else.)
“Not agaaaaiin...” I yelled as I fell into a pretty deep pit. After falling for thirty minutes, I finally hit the ground. HARD. “Ow...” I winced as I felt a throbbing in my side. That’s gonna hurt, isn’t it? I walked around, looking for something, when I saw a faint green glow. “Water!” I said in my weak tired state. I was 9 feet tall at the time, losing a lot of size after being asleep for so long. I drank it all up, and as soon as I finished, I remembered I could breathe some fire to be able to see. As soon as I did, I wished I hadn’t. I saw that the source of that green cane from a barrel with a big, obvious, yellow and black symbol that meant one thing. Radioactive. “Well, shit.” I decided to lay down, thinking that if I died it would at least be in my sleep(I’m not killing him don’t worry) and woke up to find I was cramped into some tiny craw space in the cave. I must’ve rolled in my sleep. But then I heard that sickening sound of metal being crushed, and saw that barrel from however long ago. I looked at it, and saw that it had gone from nearly the size of me from earlier to about the size of my head. “Did... did I grow?” I said, shocked my how much deeper my voice had become. Yes. I did grow. I definetly wasn’t big enough to get out of the hole yet, but it was progress. And even as I sat and tried to get in a more comfortable position the barrel had already gone from the size of my head to the size of my fist, I just had to hope I’d keep growing so I could get out of here. I soon knew space would be an issue soon, so I started pushing the rocks outward. It was easier as I went on, the barrel now being the size of my eye. I looked up, and saw a faint light. “Damn, I must be massive.” I saw my arms and legs, which were growing faster than the rest of me, and knew this was good. This was probably the best thing that could’ve happened to me. After a few more minutes of testing my new body, I broke what had to be a 100 foot thick layer of rock and dirt to find a barrel of that same waste from when I landed in the cave, but nearly the size of my body. I was big enough as is, but going faster wouldn’t hurt. ;)
