As Isaac had been working on the beam. He was watching Valerie from a distance as usual, when he knocked his drink over his keyboard.
“Ah, shit!” He cursed, as the keys stopped responding. He tried to wipe up the soda, when he noticed on the screen: 'Size Magnification 10x'
“Shit! Not yet!” He panicked as he mashed on the barely-responsive keys. He hoped that typing the cancel code enough would register with the program and abort the growth ray. 10… 9… 8…
“Come on, you piece of crap, work!” Isaac desperately typed, to avoid turning his obsession into a giantess for the whole world to ogle. The laptop responded to his furious pressing of the keys, as the target on the screen moved away from Valerie onto the door of the flower shop. Knowing Valerie was not likely to leave for an hour or two, he breathed a sigh of relief. He knew the beam would only affect humans, not plants or inanimate objects.
“Phew… Bullet dodged.” He exhaled, knowing the beam would harmlessly hit the store in a minute and fizzle out. “Still… If this can’t be fixed, that’s months of research and coding I’ll have to rewrite…” He grumbled, trying to dry his laptop keys in a vain attempt to get it to respond again.
He looked back to his screen, and noticed someone approaching.
“No… Stay away!” He yelled in vain to his laptop, as he watched Valerie’s sister, Ariel, step in front of the door as she went to take the last drag of her cigarette and dropped it next to her, raising her boot to crush the cigarette on the ground.
‘3… 2… 1… Activate’ read the warning on his laptop, as he could only watch in horror as the beam shot into Ariel’s body. Within seconds the sky got dark, as Ariel quickly grew and towered over the tiny city, as she was still bringing her boot down. Ariel boot crushed the building next to her sister’s, as she twisted it into a crumbled heap.
“What the fuck…?” Ariel boomed as she was as stunned by her growth as the rest of the town. She looked down, as Valerie’s shop only came up to her ankle, and noticed the annoying, infuriatingly judgmental neighbour’s building now crushed beneath her boot.
Valerie burst out of her store, stunned by her sister’s giant boots, slowly following them up to her sister’s face. “Ariel?!? How’d you get that huge!?! Was that noise you? It sounded like an earthquake!”
“I… don’t know. A light hit me and I just, kinda became giant. As for the noise, well…” Ariel said, as she lifted her boot from the debris and remnants of the building and accidentally crushed a car underneath. “Oops. Do you think she was in there?”
Valerie looked over to the heaped remains of her nemesis’ store, “Well, her car is under your boot, so... Oh well… Bitch had it coming. I guess no more complaints about our clothes anymore!” Valerie laughed
“Yeah… Hilarious, Sis…” Ariel rolled her eyes.
“So what are you going to do now? Figure out some way to shrink back down? The Ivan or whatever his name is would do anything I ask, surely he could nerd this out." Valerie suggested, "Don't you have a shift tonight? Imagine if they saw you now!”
“They'd just stare even more at my giant boobs and butt. But maybe…” Ariel trailed off, peeling her attention away from the rubble and her tiny sister, to the comparatively miniature town she now towered over. She mused her options, curious about what her new size could allow her to do, and who she might want to visit…
