...I had doubts anything would happen

    by: John Mitchell Author IconMail Icon
I started getting impatient that the blast didn’t work. I looked at my mother still sleeping, and wondered if hitting her with another beam would work. I aimed the remote at my mom, and set it for 1 inch just to test if the remote works. Then I fired.

“Ooh.” My mother seemed to have felt that in her sleep.

I watch to see if anything happened, and it turned out to be successful. My mom is now 5’2. I decided to bump it up a lot, to a whole foot and 3 inches, and fired.

“Ohhh….” Karen moaned once more in her sleep.

Suddenly her body started to shake. I watched as her legs extended out and her body started to grow! She was no longer average height, but now 6’5! I start to wonder if I should keep going when I hear movement coming from the couch. I turn around to see that Karen has woken up! Changing her size must have disturbed her sleep.

She sits upright and starts rubbing her eyes.

“Huh, something feels off.” She says.

She starts to look around the room until her eyes meet mine.

“Matt?” She says. And she started to stand up.

I was usually a good amount of inches taller than my mother, but now she towered over me.

“Uh, what the fuck? Why am I so tall?” She says as she looks at her body.

This isn’t good. I still want to keep the secret of the remote! I quickly come up with a lie.

“Uh, maybe this is a dream?” You ask her.

“Huh, what a cool dream. It’s feels so real.” She reaches out and touches your face. Her hands cover up most of your face. “Must be a livid dream or something, cuz it feels like I’m actually touching you!”

“Uh, yeah!” I say, agreeing with her.

She takes her hands off my face. “Why are you holding your tv remote?” Karen asks.

Uh oh.

“Uh, I don’t know! I guess I forgot I had it!” I say quickly.

“You didn’t know you had the remote from your tv, in your room, and brought it downstairs?” Karen asks.

“Uh, we’ll this is a dream, so nothing makes sense!” I say. Hopefully she doesn’t get more suspicious.

“Uh huh.” She says and walks out of the room.

Whew, that was a close one. I wonder what to do now. My mother wondered off the kitchen, so I could follow her in there. But also I could go see my sister that was still in her room…

You have the following choices:

1. Follow Karen

2. Go find Tina
