"Finally, we are here. Can't wait to start the real workout now", said Alex as they walked in the gym.
Tom wasn't used to this reality yet, being the biggest guys in the gym, most probably even the country. Everyone looked at them with awe and envy, people greeted them and even took photos. Some even tried touching their muscles as they walked by, Tom reflexively pulled himself when somebody tried to do so, but Alex seemed to welcome the gesture.
"Hey Mark!", Alex greeted one of the regular gym goers. He was a 35 year old man, had just started to get some gray hairs, but he didn't look a day older than 25. And his physique was amazing, not enormous like Tom's or Alex's, but still with big and tight muscles.
"Hey Alex, Tom", Mark greeted them. "You having another one of your 8-hour sessions today?"
"Nah, probably just 4 hours today, gotta run some errands later." Alex said and kept walking inside the gym.
Mark just waved at him and smiled.
"Tom, can I talk to you for a sec?", he beckoned at Tom.
"My son is here with me today for his first time at the gym and as you know he's about your age so... would you be so kind as to hang out with him and maybe help him a bit with the machines? If it won't be a problem for you, of course."
Tom looked at him for a second without replying, Mark's son was about one year younger than Tom and he knew him from school. His name was Adrian.
"I know what you are going to say, but I think he doesn't wanna be seen too much around his old man as much now AND you are someone I know for quite some time and can trust you"
Tom was about to refuse, he'd be doing some heavy lifting with Alex and didn't really want to spend time with someone who couldn't probably lift 1/10 of what he can now. Then he remembered that he was like that just earlier today... he felt bad, but he DID have the wand with him inside his gym bag, perhaps he could do something.
"Sure, and it is no problem at all. I am sure Alex will be glad to help too!", Tom said and winked at Mark.
"Hahaha, please don't overdo it, he just started working out!", Mark said and gave Tom a pat on the chest.
Mark then pointed at the direction his son Adrian is and went to finish his own workout.
Going towards the dumbbell rack Tom noticed Adrian sitting there, doing some bicep curls with a pair of really small weights.
Adrian was incredibly thin, but he was quite tall for a kid his age, he was taller than Tom was before he zapped himself with the wand. His hair was blonde and kinda curly, and he wore just a yellow t-shirt and a pair of green shorts at the gym, a water bottle and a small towel by his side.
Then Tom saw a couple of guys approaching him, he tried to hide himself behind a machine, well, hide himself as best he could at his current size.
"Yo kid, move your scrawny ass from here and let us men lift some real weights", one said. He was quite tall and was obviously lifting for some time, and appeared to be about 18 years old.
"Yeah, just get away from here", said the other one and pushed Adrian from the bench. He looked about the same as the other guy, just a bit younger maybe, they were probably brothers, Tom deduced.
Adrian landed on the ground with a thud, many of the other gym goers were focused on their workouts, so they didn't notice. Some decided to ignore them, while a couple stopped their workouts and went to call Adrian's father or the manager.
Tom was about to intervene, but his gym bag was caught on the machine and made him stop instantly. The zipper had opened a bit and the wand was clearly visible inside it. He smiled, it felt like this was fate.
He picked up the wand quickly and aimed it at Adrian, firing two shots at him.
Then....
