Hanging in a cage against Bethany's chest, you cling to the bars as she strides forward, each of her mighty steps shaking your prison. From this vantage point you can see the other guests - dancers and wallflowers both - turning to watch her as she marches past them. She claps her hands in front of her to attract attention, and besides the cacophony, it reminds you of the power she exerted in her recent murders. Each clash of flesh on flesh, and you see the exploding bodies in your mind's eye...
"Kill the music!" she screams up at the DJ. "I have an announcement to make!"
The music does indeed die, and now you can hear the muttering of the giant crowd as they cluster and wonder. Bethany makes her way to the stage, stepping upwards onto it with a movement that slams your cage most violently.
A mighty column before you holds a microphone far above, and Bethany takes a great, cage-rattling breath before speaking into it.
"Folks, I'd like to announce something. I'm so grateful you all came here for my birthday, but I've got a special thanks for a special person! Jenifer, get up here!"
The girl in the green dress makes a surprised face amongst the crowd, but obliges the request while her colleagues cheer and clap. Again noise overwhlems you, and you watch as Jenifer steps beside the birthday girl, a second titan in such close proximity.
"Jenifer," Bethany continues, "do you know the greatest gift my father gave me tonight? No? Let me show you all."
You flinch again as she snaps her fingers, and the way she stands you can't see what is causing everyone else to gasp. Clearly something has been revealed behind the birthday girl. Something surprising.
"Yes, my own shrinking machine. He said not to use it except in special circumstances, since it costs so much at each use! But what more special time is there than my birthday, and who deserves it more than the woman that betrayed me?"
"No-" Jenifer begins, but her protest is cut off as she is zapped and shrinks, her voice becoming too quiet to be easily heard. Bethany stoops over her, and you cling tight to the cage as you watch that immense, murderous hand reach out to the tiny, screaming woman. Seems she's about a quarter of an inch tall, and you hold your breath for a moment before realising that Bethany has picked her up instead of crushing her.
The giantess stands tall again, and lifts her handheld prisoner to her face. She whispers something you can't make out, then the cage opens and Jenifer is shoved in with you.
"Now let's party!" Bethany bellows, while you and your new companion get acquainted.
Jenifer has been shrunk to a similar size to you, but clearly not the exact same scale: measuring up in your cramped cage, you find that she's about a head taller than you now, still a giantess! Now that you're so close, you can see that your guess from earlier is true: this is no teenager, but a proportionately short woman who could pass for younger at a casual glance.
"Is Jenifer even your real name?" you wonder.
"Sorry, what?" she says, and you must choose the course of your relationship with your sole companion.
