The muscular fox and the skinny black cat look at each other on the street. Mike can't even notice himself staring with his mouth open. Jack knew that all kinds of random thoughts about him was going through his friend's mind right now. "Heheh, wanna find out what happened?" Mike just nodded and followed Jack back to the house.
Jack showed him the small rock and the note next to it. "So, you're telling me that this little thing just turned you into...That!?" Mike gestured his entire body. "Yup! Pretty impressive, right?" Jack flexed a bicep and saw how his friend was completely lost for words. "Uh...Who sent it to you?" "Does it really matter right now?" Jack was flexing some more of his muscles. Mike, however, looked at the note again. 'Your destiny.' it read. "Jack?" "Hmm?" Jack stopped flexing his muscles and looked at his friend. "Do you think that this could be some kind of asteroid shard, or maybe even a lab experiment gone missing or something?" "I don't think so. I was holding it in my hand, then it started glowing. After that, I grew to this size!" "Then what do you think this could be?" Both Jack and Mike started thinking for a little bit. After a while, Jack noticed something weird. "Hey Mike, you've been holding on to that rock and you're still the same!" "What?" Mike looked at the rock in his paw and saw that he was still as skinny as ever. "Hey, you're right!" "Let me see that thing." Mike gave the rock to Jack, which started glowing slight when it reached his paw. "Hey look, it's glowing!" "Yeah..." Jack could suddenly feel the very same sensation he first felt before. His muscles were growing! Slowly, his muscles were increasing in size, and Mike took a step back in awe. "Whoa..." "Oh cool! I'm getting bigger!" His already over sized biceps were growing to the great sizes. His pecs were pushing out even more, and his leg muscles were pumping up too! He was growing taller as well. "Heheh, so cool..." Jack was feeling the power flowing inside him. He set the rock down on a table, and examined his still growing body...Which comes to an abrupt halt! As quickly as it came, the growth stopped and left Jack in nothing more than his underwear. "Huh. I guess it only works for you..." Mark said, feeling a bit disappointed. "Don't worry Mike, I'm sure that it'll work for you somehow." Jack flexed his arms, which bulged out bigger than it did before! "You might wanna get something to wear first." Mike said, turning his back on his friend. Jack looked down and saw that the only piece of clothing left on him was starting to strain...
Back with the stretchiest sweater and jogging pants he could find (and still stretching the fabric to the limit a bit), He returns with Mike who was holding the stone and examining the note again. "Hey Mike, what are you doing?" "I'm trying to see if there's some kind of hidden message here. Magical muscle growing rocks in presents don't just appear in anyone's doorstep." Jack could see the concentration on the cat's face. "Tell me, did you see anyone deliver this to you when you got it?" Mike asked, not even looking up at his friend. "Nope. I just heard a knock on the door and there it was." Jack sat on the couch, which groaned to his new weight. "Interesting..." Mike was fumbling with the rock now. Jack was starting to wonder if Mike was getting jealous of him. The only reason they were friends is because they both get beat up by the school bullies everyday. Not as much as him, of course, but it was one way to start a friendship. "You wanna get big as me, don't you?" Jack said, deciding to tease him a little. Mike looked at his friend and sat down next to him. "Well, maybe, but not until I'm going around on the street in my underwear, I'm sure." Mike gave his friend a sideways glance and a smile. "Do you think this responds to touch? Or the wish to grow?" "I dunno. But I was sure that I wanted to get bigger when I was holding it." "Wanna do an experiment?" "Like what?" Mike gave him a smile and held out the rock. "How about this. You touch the rock, but you have to say to yourself that you don't wanna grow bigger. This way, we'll find out if it only works when you touch it or when you want to grow." Jack gace it some thought. The clothes he's wearing can still handle a few more pounds of fox muscle. And, if it only works when he wants it to, then he can carry it around and use it only if he needs to! "Alright then. Let's try it!" Jack took the stone and held it in his paw.
