This choice: Alison goes home angry and records her progress • Go Back...Chapter #8Alison goes home angry and records her progress by: izdubarr   Alison swore loudly to herself as she veered through traffic. Rush hour was just starting on Route 1 and things were starting to slow down. Alison was in a blind rage, angrier than she ever remembered being. Not only had Ray beaten her, and left her $200 poorer on the day she lost her job, but he was a gigantic prick about it, strutting around the bar and teasing her. She slinked out, fuming and nearly tore Holly's head off when the waitress followed her out to apologize.
"He can be such an asshole sometimes, I'm sorry Alison. I hope I can still call you about working out?"
"Sure, whatever." Alison growled, but couldn't help but smile a touch at Holly's supplication. But her anger soon returned, and thoughts of revenge against Ray were at the forefront. She caught herself mid-growl. "I'm not mad at you Holly, I'm just frustrated at myself and angry at Ray. I'd love to take that bully down!"
"He's not that bad, when you get to know him!" Holly called out after Alison's rapidly retreating car.
Alison's hunger had returned with a vengeance and she stopped off at the drive through on the way home to order 3 double whopper value meals. They barely sated her. If this drug ever makes it into production, make sure to buy stock in Burger King, she thought to herself. Like it was going to ever see production now. Thoughts of how her research had been shut down just made her even angrier, so she put them out of her mind.
Alison stopped at the supermarket on the way home and stocked up on $400 worth of food, enough to feed a family of 4 for a couple of weeks. She figured it would last her a day or two. It was surprisingly easy lifting the heavy bags of meat and groceries into the trunk of her car. Her strength gains were incredible. She held a gallon jug of milk out at arms length in front of her effortlessly. She could have held it there all day. Yesterday she would barely have been able to lift it. Still, not enough to beat Ray, she fumed to herself.
She got home and unloaded her groceries and the box of stuff she'd stolen from the lab. She chuckled as she easily held the filing box in one arm as she carried a dozen plastic grocery bags in the other. When she left the lab she'd barely been able to pick up the box filled with papers and her collected research.
Alison took out her laptop and booted it up. She checked her email at work. Sure enough there was a message from Mike Sullivan accepting her resignation and reminding her about her non-disclosure and non-compete contracts with Sementex and how they applied to FMG as well. She wouldn't be able to legally take her research that she'd performed at Sementex anywhere else. Oh well. Mike also demanded that Alison return the FMG property that she had taken earlier that day, or they'd begin legal proceedings. Alison lazily flexed her bicep. Maybe she was considered FMG property now! In her gmail account was a message from her postdoc Craig. The guy was really a sweetheart, he was concerned for Alison's welfare, didn't say a thing in the email about his own career going down with hers.
That done, the scientist in Alison took over. She began a new document to chart her progress as a guinea pig. She stripped down to her panties and got out her digital camera to take pictures, cursing herself for not taking any "before" shots. She'd have to dig up some pictures from her hard drive, hopefully she'd find something appropriate to compare with. Alison's muscles didn't' seem to have grown much from the 3 double whopper meals, but her breasts were definitely larger and fuller. She wasn't sure why that was, but she had a theory. The protein synthesis machinery in her cells needed protein to work, and the meal at Ray's, although filled with it's share of fat and carbs, was primarily protein. The fast food meals, on the other hand, were loaded with fat. Her muscles couldn't make much use of that, so her body stored it away. In her breasts, apparently. The targeted fat storage was probably due to the female hormone pathways she'd used in the protein synthesis. If only Dr. Sullivan had known Alison had a breast growth pill earlier than morning! They'd never halt THAT project!
Alison cupped her new breasts and felt them. They were firm and supple, and she had to reluctantly admit, after a lifetime of telling herself that breasts just got in the way, they looked fantastic on her. They were nothing extreme, barely a B cup at best, but they were so much more than she had this morning! It made her feel all tingly. She tore herself away from the mirror, put on a bathrobe and grabbed one of the boxes of protein bars she'd just picked up at the supermarket along with a gallon jug of milk, and started chewing on a bar. The she sat at her computer and began to type.
"Subject 001 female 6'0" tall, weight approx. 112 pounds, body fat 18% (according to her body fat scale. Those things were notoriously inaccurate, but it was all she had). Baseline strength measurements (Alison dug out her workout journal):
Leg press, 45 degree angle: 12 repetitions at 110 pounds
Bench press: 2 x 20 pounds dumbbells, 11 repetitions
shoulder press, seated: 10 repetitions with 2x10 pound dumbbells
cable row: 13 repetitions at 30 pounds
Subject took compound coded 0098845 at approximately 1300, Thursday, May 17, 2007. Subject exhibited vastly stimulated appetite soon thereafter and consumed", Alison guessed, "approximately 40000 kcals of nutrition, which consisted of about 2000 grams of protein". Enough to feed the old Alison for about 3 weeks, she chuckled to herself.
"Subsequent to this feeding subject exhibited vast muscular hypertrophy as well as vastly increased strength, levels to be documented later. At approximately 1700, 02/15 subject weighs" ... Alison pulled out her scale and stepped on. "133 pounds with 16% body fat". She'd gained 21 pounds AND she lost some fat. Wow.
"Subject reports heightened levels of confidence and some euphoria. Subject also reports increased aggression, with some episodes of rage", it was important to be honest with yourself, "as well as a heightened state of sexual arousal." She hadn't been able to put her finger on that right away, but there was no denying it. Her new body was turning Alison on more than she had been since high school.
Alison was munching away on the protein bars as she finished typing, and was surprised to see she'd not just finished a bar, but rather the whole box of 24! It only contained empty wrappers now. The milk was gone too! The bars and the milk were very high in protein and Alison could feel a pleasant warmth all through her muscles as her body absorbed the nutrition. She checked the nutritional label on the bars.
"Addendum, 1900 hours: Subject has consumer a further 6000 calories and 800 g protein." | Members who added to this interactive story also contributed to these: |
