Daisy didn't feel any different. Whatever Grant had shot her with didn't seem to have done anything at all. Maybe the gun was a dud? Still, he said he knew what it did. What was he hiding?
"Seems your toy didn't work. You can give me the gun now." Grant was openly grinning. "What are you smiling about?"
"It sometimes takes a minute or two for the effect to kick in. Probably because of your powers. You'll feel it any second."
"Uh huh. You're so full of sh....uh...." Daisy started to feel tingly. "I feel strange."
As Grant watched gleefully, an astonished Daisy started to shrink. "What is happening to me?"
"I think that's pretty obvious," Grant pointed out. "I'm curious to see how much you'll shrink with one short burst."
Daisy saw that her head had now sunk below Grant's shoulders. It seemed like he was getting further and further away. Suddenly it stopped. Grant pouted. "Well, that didn't do much." He whipped out the gun and shot her again, this time with a longer lasting blast.
Daisy gasped as the tingling feeling she was experiencing became much much stronger. Her shrinking sped up and Grant watched in awe and fascination as she quickly an steadily grew smaller and smaller and smaller. As Daisy shrank lower than his knee, he crouched down so he could continue to watch her decrease in size. "Wow," he murmured softly. "This is amazing."
Daisy finally stopped shrinking. Grant brought over a tape measure, grabbed the miniature Daisy before she could get away, and measured her size at 12 inches tall. "This will do for now. Later, maybe I'll make you even smaller." Daisy shuddered. He carefully lifted the now tiny Inhuman up to his face and inspected her all over. Her clothes at thankfully shrunk with her, so at least she wasn't naked. Yet.
"You are so small. So tiny. I loved watching you shrink. It really turned me on Daisy. Now you and I are going to have some fun. You'll see that this will end up being the best thing that ever happened to you. Soon, I'll even shrink some friends for you to play with. Simmons, maybe? Or Morse? Won't that be nice?" Daisy didn't say anything.
Grant took Daisy back to his car and put her in a cage in the backseat. He then drove back to his apartment and got the shrunken woman inside. Daisy was shocked to see several other little people, men and women of varying sizes, the smallest being less than an inch in height. She recognized some of them, including Sunil Bakshi and Agent 33. "Don't worry Daisy. You'll always be my favorite. I got you a present." Grant reached into one of the cages and took out a woman Daisy knew very well. Raina! What was she doing here?
Grant set her down in Daisy's cage. Raina was slightly taller. Grant grabbed the gun, aimed it directly at Raina, and before she could say anything, fired. Daisy watched awestruck as the already small Raina shrank even smaller, her size decreasing from around Daisy's height to less than 8 inches, less than 4 inches, less than an inch. Now, Raina was nothing more than a bug to Daisy, nothing more than a speck to Grant.
Grant hoped Daisy liked her new pet. He yawned and turned off the light. There was much for him and Daisy to do tomorrow, so much fun to be had, but for now he just needed sleep.
