Not having been satisfied with her first drink, Mina filled her cup for a second time. She had put the cup to her mouth when she fully realized the size of her stomach. In shock, Mina dropped her cup and looked at her belly again.
Her belly had grown out a little, and now her inflation was starting on her breasts, straining against her bra ever so slightly.

"Artemus... Artemus" Mina whispered as she desperately tried to wake her cat.
Finally, Artemus stirred.
"Mina," Artemus started, glaring at his friend. "do have any idea what time it-eeek!"
"I was in the bathroom getting a drink and I looked like this." Mina said as she rubbed her inflating belly.
"I think I heard about this once." Artemus said, giving Mina's now medicine ball-sized belly a poke. "I think your Sailor powers are to blame for this."
"How?" Mina asked, now rather scared.
Artemus cleared his throat. "Well, your powers, like any other Sailor, is attuned to the planet you're named after. While the transformation wands were built to filter out any negative forces that come from the planets, it is possible for something about the planets to temporarily overpower the wands."
"So this is the result of something on the planet Venus?" Mina asked, regaining her composure.
"Yeah, it's probably just a nasty wind storm." Said Artemus. "Eventually, your wand should be able recover and restore your normal shape."
Mina breathed a sigh of relief. "Wait, if this happened before, could it happen again?"
"Well, I can't say for sure." Said Artemus. "This might be the only time, or it could happen again either randomly or periodically. Also, I wouldn't recommend transforming while this is happening. With the extra power used to transform and maintain your Sailor state, you could fill up even faster."
"So what should we do?" Mina asked.
"We'll cross that bridge if we need to do so. Right now you might want to change into looser clothes before you tear out of your pajamas."
Mina looked at herself. Her belly had gotten two inches larger, becoming orb-like. Her breasts, now threating to snap her bra off, were borderline E cup. Even her lower body was being affected. Her butt had grown five sizes, and her thighs were already starting to over stress the seams of Mina's pajama pants.
"Good point, but I don't have anything this big." Said Mina.
Artemus face faulted. "Oh, well I guess I can just sleep in the living room for tonight."

It was weird, Mina thought, to sleep in the nude. The fact she was still inflating didn't help much either. However, Mina noticed that she wasn't inflating as fast as she was before. Hopefully, this would be gone before morning.
