"WE HAVE SOME MORE TESTS TO RUN!", Mai said. She reached out to grab you. You braced yourself as the hand shot out at you. Mai realised she might have frightened you as she retracted her hand. You looked up as Mai paused to think and she gently and slowly lowered her hand.
"SORRY IF I SCARED YOU LITTLE GUY! I SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE CONSIDERATE OF YOUR NEW SIZE! HOP ON IF YOU'RE UP FOR MORE TESTS!", Mai said. You felt reassured by the giant girl and clambered on to her hand.
Mai was giddy over the whole ordeal. Her shrink ray was a success and she could complete her family's goal with it. The part about her masters was a lie. She was the mastermind behind this whole operation. She needed a cover story to avoid suspicion. Still, she had to remember to be gentle with her little passenger. She felt a strong urge to protect and care for the little man sitting on her palm.
"Is this how my ancestor felt for them all these years ago?", Mai thought as she walked over to a desk for round 2 of the shrinking.
"ALRIGHT LITTLE GUY! STEP ON THE DESK AND WE'LL MOVE ON THE NEXT TEST, OKAY?!", Mai coaxed. You obeyed and climbed off the large, fleshy platform. You watched Mai change the settings on her shrink ray as you waited for the next test to get underway.
"FOR THIS NEXT ONE, I'M GONNA MAKE YOU A LITTLE SMALLER! DON'T WORRY! IT MAY BE SCARY, BUT I'LL KEEP YOU SAFE!", Mai said reassuringly. You thought you spotted Mai reaching for something under her desk, but you paid it no mind. At this point, she had been nothing short of kind to you and felt no reason to suspect her of ulterior motives. Mai pointed the now gigantic shrink ray at you. You watched as a green light emerged from the barrel and engulfed you. It was so bright that you couldn't see the world around you get bigger. Once it dissipated, you looked around you. The desk stretched across the room like a vast landscape. It looked like a whole country could be established on this table alone. Just how small did you get?
"GREAT! YOU ARE NOW THE PERFECT SIZE! 1/64th OF AN INCH TALL!", the booming voice of Mai echoed around you. What sounds like a normal pitch to her was an eardrum-bursting explosion to you. The thought of how big this girl was made you curl up in a ball and cover your ears, too scared to face the gargantuan girl behind you. Because of this, you didn't see her spray you with a gas from a spray can. You didn't see the white mist engulf you and before long, you were fast asleep.
With that, Mai had completed the experiment. She had everything she needed. Now she could set about completing her true goal. She took out a pair of tweezers, the only way she could possibly handle the microscopic man before her without harming him. If her ancestor could do it, so could she. She carefully pinched the little man with the tweezers. Mai took a moment to gaze at her tiny test subject. He looked so frail, vulnerable and in need of a protector.
"Don't worry, little guy. Where you're going, you won't have to worry about money again", she whispered softly to you. She took out a vial from a drawer and inserted your unconscious body inside. She then stored the vial away inside her back pocket, smiling while giving it a little pat. Mai leaves the lab to begin the next phase of her plan...
