The Goddess 3 - Empire of the Giantess

First, the obligatory disclaimer: There are plenty of descriptions of
nude women in the following story. There is also plenty of violent
activity going on (as you might expect from me), though this time
very few cities get destroyed. I also threw in some colored language
to spruce things up. If any of this offends you, well, you probably
shouldn't have gotten this far in the first place, but you might want
to consider reading a good book instead. As always, kids under 18
should get their parents' permission before reading. Due to some
violent content, parental discretion is advised.

Prologue - Interview with a Giantess

Two large, muscular women who had to be at least ten feet tall met me
at the door. I immediately noticed that they were only wearing tight
spandex shorts and bikini tops, perhaps because there are no other
clothes that they could fit into. For a moment, I wondered if The
Giantess dressed them in this way all the time and if she had any
openings on her staff for a reporter. They led me down a long, tall
corridor decorated floor to ceiling with some of the finest works of
art in the world. Many of them had been museum pieces until The
Giantess appropriated them. Some of them were placed so high up on
the wall that I could barely see them. I would assume The Giantess
placed them that high so that she could look at them. I also noticed
that there was no furniture at all in the corridor, not one table,
chair, or couch in sight. I asked one of my escorts why this was so.
Her reply was that The Giantess would simply crush them whenever she
chose to walk through here after a growth !
sequence.

I was led into a large room that had all the trappings of a throne
room. Draped over an extra long couch at the far end of the room was
The Giantess. Her outfit appeared to be about three sizes too small,
which it probably really was. A short black leather skirt wrapped
tightly around her mid-section and just barely covered her most
private parts. She wore her white blouse unbuttoned, perhaps because
she couldn't button it. The only thing that kept her breasts from
being totally exposed was the knot at the bottom, just above her
belly button. The sleeves were also missing, perhaps torn off by her
huge biceps that would make any professional wrestler jealous. Her
sexy legs stretched out to the far end of the huge coach, capped off
by black high heal pumps. All together, she struck a very provocative
pose, so provocative that I could feel a tingle in my private parts.
I began to think that she wasn't named People Magazine's Sexiest
Woman Alive just because she was CEO of AOL/T!
ime-Warner.

"Oh yes, the newspaper guy," she said as she rose from the
couch, "come on over and have a seat."

I walked over to her and found myself staring at her tanned belly
button when we shook hands. She seemed to try to be gentle with her
grip but it still felt like a vice had grabbed a hold of my hand. She
sat back down on the couch while I sat in an adjacent chair. With a
wave of her hand the amazons who escorted me in left and closed the
extremely tall doors that reminded me of the ones in the wizard's
chamber from "The Wizard of Oz."

"I guess the first question on everyone's mind is," I
began, "now that you have become The Giantess again, how come
you haven't taken over the world?"

"Well," replied The Giantess, "I thought about doing
that. But then I remembered all of the hassles and problems I had to
deal with when ruling an entire world. Every day I had to worry about
which country was going to try and revolt against me, which armies I
could and could not trust, and so on. I found being a queen was not
all it was cracked up to be. So this time I tried a different
approach."

"By using your size to take over businesses?"

"Exactly. Instead of demanding that governments give me money, I
demand it from corporations instead. In exchange for their money I
allow them to stay in business. So far they've been very cooperative.
All I ask from the government is that they leave me alone."

"Which they have done so far, I believe."

"Yes, they too have been very cooperative. At least they haven't
tried to shrink me recently."

"Which leads me to another question, I've heard you can change
your size at will. Is this true?"

"Yes, I can."

"So why would you not want to be a giantess all the time? It
worked well for you before."

"Because it's a real pain to constantly be at my full height. By
shrinking down to normal size occasionally I can eat regular food and
interact with my subjects, or shall I say customers, better."

"But you've apparently chosen to remain at around 8 feet tall
instead of your old height of 5 feet."

"Wouldn't you if you had my power? Besides, I need to stay
taller than everybody else just to remind them that I can get much,
much bigger."

"So, how tall can you grow?"

"I'm not sure, really. I know I can grow to at least two and a
half miles in height, but I've never tried to see how tall I can
get."

"How come?"

"There's never been a need to. I'm not interested in just
destroying things for the fun of it, so I only use my growth
abilities when I need to."

"Was one of those times when you killed Leanne Tran?"

"With her, I had to do what I had to do. I didn't want to squash
her, believe me. But since she knew how to make the giantess formula
she posed a threat to me, so I had to get rid of her. Nothing
personal, just business."

"The same with Agent Steve Campbell?"

"No, that was personal."

"How come?"

"I would prefer not to discuss it."

"Okay. What about Christina Martin? She knows how to make the
formula and you haven't killed her."

"I owe her a debt of gratitude. She's the reason why I am where
I am today. So out of gratitude for all she did for me I've given her
the right to stay alive."

"But in prison."

"Which is where she belongs. We can't let sadistic people like
her running around now, can we?"

"So even though you say you owe her you still support keeping
her locked up. How do you justify this?"

"Hey, that bitch is lucky that I haven't squashed her like a
bug."

I looked up from my notepad because it sounded like her voice was
getting louder. I immediately noticed that the knot tying her blouse
together was starting to unravel. I could also hear her leather pumps
stretching. My private parts began tingling again.

"But don't you think that's a little unfair?" I bravely
asked.

"Listen, I was the one who came up with that formula! Not
Leanne, not Christina, it was me!" At this point her skirt
looked more like a string tied around her waist as her expanding
thighs had pushed it up to her waist. The knot in the blouse was
gone, and her fully developed breasts had completely emerged from
their cloth restraints. The heels from her pumps had broken off, and
her toes were popping out from under the black leather.  "And I
have every right to use it to my advantage," she said as she
continued to rise above me as if she was unaware that she was
growing, "just like anybody else who invents something. If
people who invent paper clips and white out can make millions off
their invention, why can't I?"

I thought about continuing this line of questioning, but decided
against it when she stood up and tore off the remains of her
clothing. While my loins were screaming for more, my mind told me
that I didn't want to see her any bigger without an Army standing
behind me. She had to be at least 20 feet tall.

"I see your point."

"I think I've had enough of this interview. Now get out before I
really get mad."

"But I still have plenty to...."

"I SAID, GET OUT!"

Her growth rate had accelerated so much that it gave me whiplash
watching her. I was so mesmerized by this that I didn't see the
amazons who escorted me in come back into the chamber. They picked me
up off the chair and quickly carried me out. I turned around and saw
a very angry look on the face of the 50 foot tall Giantess, and
realized I was very lucky, or unlucky depending on your point of
view, to have not been crushed.

Chapter 1 - Corporate Takeover

"Hello, come on in and have a seat here, miss, uh, uh, what was
your name again?"

"You can just call me Maria, Mr. Gates."

"Please, call me Bill. Mr. Gates is my father."

Maria squeezed her 8-foot frame into the chair in front of Bill's
desk. He had stood up from his chair to greet his guest, and
remaining standing there a few extra seconds to admire the gorgeous
legs now crossed before him. By the time his eyes had made it up to
the large breasts that were just barely contained by a black
form-fitting dress Maria had figured out what he was doing.

"Uh, Bill," she said, "can we get started? I have a
busy schedule today."

"Sure," he replied as he slowly sank back into his chair.
"So, I understand you're interested in investing in our
company."

"Oh, more than that, Bill. I plan on taking over control of
Microsoft." 

"Really?"

"Oh yes," Maria replied. "You see, I can't build my
corporate empire to the size I want it to be without having Microsoft
on board. You're simply too big to be left out."

"But why would I want to turn over my company to you?" Bill
asked. "This is my company. Besides, you probably don't know the
first thing about computers."

"I don't need to know anything. I was going to let you continue
to run the company. I just want your profits."

"In exchange for what?"

"I'm surprised you asked that question," Maria answered,
"you know what I am capable of, don't you? You don't want to see
this little company of yours turned to ashes, do you? Only I can
prevent that from happening. And you know that little problem you
have the government? One snap of my fingers can make it all go
away."

Bill sat there for a second and just stared at her, saying nothing.
"I don't know," he finally said.

Maria started squirming in her seat as she could feel the chair
tightening around her. "Listen, we can do this the easy way or
the hard way. Do we have a deal or not?"

"I would have to say no," Bill replied, "I just can't
do this."

"Then you've just made a big mistake."

Maria rose up from her chair, and immediately the back of her dress
tore in two. She reached down and pried her shoes off and tossed them
aside. Bill looked up from his chair and immediately noticed that she
appeared to be taller now than what she was when she walked in. He
reached for the phone and called for security. He managed to get the
message out before Maria ripped the phone from his hands and threw it
across the room. 

"Listen, miss," he said meekly, "you have to leave
now."

"Oh don't worry," Maria replied as her head started pushing
up against the 10 foot high ceiling. "I'll leave alright, but
I'm taking you with me."

The Giantess raised her hands and pushed up against the ceiling of
the one story office building. Pieces of the ceiling, including the
lights, began raining down, sending Bill under his desk looking for
cover. She let out a big laugh when she saw that. She then reached
down, pulled off the tattered remains of her dress, and threw it
towards the desk.

"Here's something to remember me by, Bill. See you in hell!"

Her head burst through the roof, and she could see some employees
were already attempting to escape. This inspired her to increase her
growth rate, and in only a matter of seconds her height doubled to 30
feet. The armed security called by Bill burst into the office at that
point, but could only see The Giantess' lower body. They immediately
opened fire.

"Hey, stop that, you little gnats!"

The Giantess lifted her right foot out from the building and
immediately pushed it back down where she thought the security people
were. Her 8-foot long foot provided her with a large margin for
error, as the guards were instantly crushed to their deaths. The
impact from the foot also brought down the rest of the building,
trapping Bill under a large pile of debris. He would say later that
he was sure it was all over for him, and that he regretted not
turning over his company as she asked.

"People of Microsoft," The Giantess announced when she was
75 feet tall, "your CEO has decided not to join my corporation.
And unfortunately all of you are going to have to pay the price for
his decision."

The Giantess closed her eyes and appeared to fall in a deep trance.
Observers who had seen her decimate McDonald's corporate headquarters
knew what was coming next and started running for their lives. Her
growth rate accelerated dramatically. In seconds she had grown from
100 feet to 500 feet tall and was still climbing. The debris that was
Microsoft's main office building was quickly buried beneath her
expanding feet, and her toes began pressuring the building next door.
The wide spread screaming now heard all over the Microsoft campus
didn't distract The Giantess as she shot past the 1000 foot mark, nor
did she pay any attention to the collapse of the R&D building that
was up against her left foot. She started screaming in ecstasy when
she made it to 2000 feet, shattering the glass windows of every
building still standing and drowning out the screams of the panicking
employees inside. "This is even better than at Boeing," she
thought to herself, "let's get crazy."

A minute later she had reached 9000 feet and opened her eyes to see
thousands of employees running for the parking lot. Recognizing they
were headed for their cars, she started stomping on the pavement at
each exit from the campus, leaving behind 10 foot deep craters that
no cars could drive through. The Giantess then remembered what she
did on her first day as a giantess and took a seat in the parking
lot. She then spread her legs apart, giving everyone below a close up
look at her private parts before she brought her legs back together,
crushing hundreds of people and cars all at once. She repeated this
one more time to make sure she got everybody before standing back up
to her full height and walking towards the center of the campus.

She could see that there were some people still there, apparently
hoping they could hide out until she left. She raised her right foot
and dangled it over her possible victims, blotting out the sun.
"Should I let you live?" she asked them, not expecting an
answer. "Nah, I don't think so," she said as she lowered
the boom on the people and the buildings they had worked in.

She didn't waste any time with the next cluster of buildings,
stomping on some of them and kicking others into the next county. By
the time she was finished the entire Microsoft campus resembled
Hiroshima in terms of the complete and total devastation. Satisfied
with her work, she shrank herself back down to 8 feet and got into
the stretch limousine that came to pick her up.

"I guess they didn't want to join us," said the driver.

"It's too bad," Maria replied, "I was hoping they
could help me fix my computer. I guess I'll just have to move up my
meeting with Intel."

The next day, on news of Microsoft's demise at the hands of The
Giantess, the stocks of Netscape and Sun Microsystems doubled in
price. Both companies also announced that had accepted invitations to
join the Giantess Corporation. 

Chapter 2 - Blinded By the Light

The guards called for lights out an hour ago, but Christina Martin
was still wide awake. It was this way almost every night since she
was incarcerated. Her body was in a constant state of vigilance,
prepared for someone to come up to her and attack. Neither prisoners
nor guards were happy about what she did to the other prison as a
giantess, and now that they had her locked up both sides made sure
she paid the price for her actions. Beatings by fellow prisoners were
a daily occurrence, and each time the guards did nothing to stop it.
Bruises and welts appeared all over her body, and her once luscious
golden hair now looked like the bristles from an overused toothbrush.
Finally, after almost a year of torture, the warden decided to place
her in solitary confinement for her own protection.

Christina was lying on her cot staring at the blank ceiling when she
noticed a faint buzzing sound. She sat up and looked around her
pitch-black cell, trying to locate the source of the sound.
"Maybe it's just the lights outside" she thought as she
started to lie back down. But then the sound started getting louder,
bringing her back up and eventually out of the bed. She looked around
frantically, trying to figure out where the sound was coming from. It
was getting so loud now that she had to cover her ears. Then, in one
corner of the cell a small ball of light appeared. Christina stood
with her eyes fixated on the light as it got larger and brighter
along with the sound.  The light appeared to be taking the shape of a
person. Then suddenly there was a bright flash of light that caused
Christina to quickly look away. When she turned back she was looking
at the face of an old friend.

"Den... Den... Denise?" Christina asked, "Is that
you."

"In the flesh, so to speak."

Christina just stood there with her jaw draping, unable to udder more
than a few syllables.

"I know, I know," said Denise, "you're wondering
what's going on."

"Well, yeah."

"Well let me tell you," Denise began, "I've been
through the most incredible experience. Is it just me or is it really
cold in here?"

"Maybe it's because you don't have any clothes on,"
Christina replied.

"Oh, yeah, I forgot about that." Suddenly after another
light flash Denise was wearing clothes.

"How did you do that?" Christina asked.

"I've become a being of pure energy."

"A what?"

"An energy being. Instead of having flesh and organs and all
that stuff I now consist entirely of energy. Energy that I can use to
do things like transform molecules."

"Transform molecules?"

"Yeah, like making clothes out of thin air."

"I must be dreaming," Christina said, "this just isn't
happening. You're supposed to be dead. That's what they told me. You
exploded or something."

"I didn't explode," Denise replied, "my body simply
could not absorb all of the energy from the power plant, so it
converted itself into something that could. It was so weird. After
the conversion I found myself just floating around in the sky without
a body. I thought that I was a bird or something, and then suddenly I
became one."

"One what?"

"A bird! It was, like, incredible! Later on I figured out I
could become anything I wanted. Birds, animals, even people. It just
been amazing."

"Well, that's nice for you, Denise, but while you've been out
playing I've been locked up in here being beaten and battered by
every inmate in this prison."

"I know, that's why I'm here."

"And that Giantess bitch is out taking over the world with my
formula!"

"I know that too."

"Then what are you going to do about it, Miss Energy Being?"

"Listen, I've got a..."

"Hey Martin!" shouted the prison guard on the other side of
the door. "Shut up in there! It's lights out!"

"Looks like I better go, before you get in trouble," said
Denise.

"But, but, aren't you going to get me out of here?"
Christina asked.

"Don't worry," Denise replied as she started to fade away
from sight, "I've got a plan. I'll talk to you later."

Chapter 3 - The Board Meeting

The chairmen of the Big Three automakers sat quietly in the throne
room waiting for their host to appear. After watching The Giantess
Corporation take over most of America's largest corporations each of
them knew that their day of reckoning would eventually come, but all
three were surprised to find the other two CEO's in the room with
them. "The audacity of this woman," one of the said,
"trying to take all of our companies at the same time."

"Are we ready to take this woman on as we discussed?" asked
John Smith, CEO of General Motors.

"I think so," replied William Clay Ford, "we've
diversified all of our operations just like we talked about, so
there's no way she can attack us all at once."

"So have we," replied Robert Eaton, the head of
Daimler-Chrysler, "I've also discussed our mutual aid agreement
with the board of directors. It was hard to convince the Germans that
this was a good idea, but eventually they agreed."

"Good," Smith said, "only with a united front do we
have any chance of stopping her."

"You think it'll be enough?"

"I don't know, you saw what she did to Microsoft."

"I actually talked to Bill about it," said Smith. "He
told me he was never more scared in his life."

"Well it's about time somebody brought him down."

The three men began chuckling at the fate of the fallen billionaire,
which was immediately silenced by the thud of one of the side doors
swinging open. Maria entered the room flanked by two amazon
bodyguards. This time she showed a more businesslike appearance, but
even her specially tailored suit looked stretched to the limits of
her powerful frame. She walked over and shook the hand of each man
with a grip that produced a slight grimace from each of them. They
each then took a seat at the large round table at the center of the
room.

"Now gentlemen," Maria began, "you all know why you
are here, so let's get right to business. Did you bring the
paperwork?"

"Well, actually, no," John Smith replied.

"What?!"

"Well, you see, I had our lawyers look at it and...."

"Lawyers?" asked Maria angrily. "What do you need
lawyers for? I thought the terms were pretty simple, surrender your
companies to me or I will destroy them."

"Well that's just it," answered Ford, "I can't just
surrender Ford to you. You must understand, it's been the family
business from day one. What would my great grandfather say?"

"Your great grandfather is dead," Maria said, "and so
will his company be if you don't hand it over to me. Do you realize
the price for your insolence?"

"Yes, we do," replied Eaton, "but if that's the price
we have to pay to keep our companies than so be it. I'm not turning
my company over to some bimbo."

"Bimbo!" erupted Maria as she stood up, "I am not a
bimbo! I am the most powerful person in the world! I can destroy you
all with a mere thought! I've had enough of this! Guards!"

On command the amazon bodyguards who came in with Maria ran up to the
table and held down each man in their chairs. Meanwhile, Maria stood
motionless, as if in a deep trance. Everyone in the room knew what
that meant, Maria was inducing her transformation into The Giantess.
But this time nothing was happening. They could see Maria tighten his
fists and could hear her groan in frustration, but still nothing.
"What's going on?" Maria muttered to herself, "Why am
I not growing?" Suddenly she let out a loud scream and ran out
of the room. The bodyguards looked at each other with confusion, and
then they left the room, leaving the three executives alone.

"Was she trying to grow?"

"I think so."

"Then has she lost her power?"

"It looks like it."

"Then gentlemen, this is just the break we need. I'll call the
President and give him the good news!"

Chapter 4 - Due Process

The group assembled in the Oval Office was a small but powerful one.
Along with the President there were the Secretaries of Defense,
State, and Commerce, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, John
Smith from General Motors, and William Clay Ford from Ford. The
meeting was hastily arranged less than 24 hours after the phone call
from Smith to the president.

"So John," the President began, "why don't you tell
everyone what you told me over the phone yesterday."

"Yes sir, Mr. President," Smith replied, "William and
I along with Bob Eaton with Chrysler were summoned to the estate of
The Giantess. She wanted to take control of our companies just like
she did to all the other ones."

"Yeah, I know," the Secretary of Commerce interrupted,
"she's pretty much taken over everything."

"Except us," said Ford.

"How, how did you resist her?"

"I was getting to that," Smith answered.

"I'm sorry, please continue."

"Well, when we told her we weren't going to give her our
companies she threatened to grow into a giantess and take them by
force, just like she did with Microsoft. But for some reason she
didn't grow at all."

"Not at all?"

"No, sir, she stayed at her regular height."

"You know what this means, don't you?" asked The President.
"It means that she can't become a giantess anymore, and if she
can't become a giantess, then...."

"Then," the Secretary of Defense interrupted, "she can
be beaten."

"That's right," replied The President, "I want this
woman taken down once and for all. General, I want you to send every
available man to her estate and kill her on sight."

"But Mr. President," asked the Secretary of State,
"you can't just go kill someone just because you don't like
them. Not only is it against the law, but it's just not right.
Besides, the press would have your head for this, especially since
she controls most of them."

"What do you want me to do, George, arrest her? We tried that
already, don't you remember? You saw how well that worked. Forget
about giving her due process. She's guilty of so many crimes that she
doesn't deserve due process. She deserves to be executed for what's
she's done, and quite frankly I couldn't care less what the press
thinks. I know the people of this country, hell for that matter the
entire world, would love nothing better than to see her dead.
General, how fast can you mobilize your troops?"

"Mr. President," replied the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs,
"I can have 30 divisions on her within 24 hours."

"Do you agree with that assessment, Bill?"

"Yes sir," replied the Secretary of Defense, "I
do."

"Then gentlemen," said The President, "let's take her
down before she figures out how to grow again."

Chapter 5 - Birth of a Goddess

In the basement of the Giantess castle was Maria's personal
laboratory. Using her vast resources she had constructed the best
equipped lab found anywhere on the planet, and it was in many ways
her own personal playground. But today Maria was in no mood to play.
The incident with the carmakers scared her. She knew that once word
got out that she couldn't grow anymore that they would be coming for
her, and that she would be powerless to stop them. At best she would
be forced to forfeit all of the power and wealth she had acquired
over the last year and return to prison. At worst, well Maria
preferred not to think about that.

What confused her the most was why she couldn't grow. None of the
past giantess formulas wore off after a length of time. Granted, she
had to make some adjustments to make herself immune to the
government's shrink formula and give her the power to change her size
at will, but she didn't anticipate that one of the side effects would
be that her power was only temporary. She knew that she had to find
another formula to give her back her powers, and that she had to find
it fast.

She had spent the last two days in her laboratory, without any sleep
and with little food or water. In that time she had calculated a new
formula and was in the final stages of creating the liquid solution.
She hoped to test the formula on some tissue samples she had, but
judging by all of the yelling and screaming her servants upstairs
were doing she knew there was no time for that. She had to take the
chance of testing it on herself first.
--------------------
Lead by General Paulson's humvee, 5000 tanks and 10,000 men stormed
through the gates of the Giantess estate and raced towards the
castle. The castle guards had long since vacated their posts after
seeing this armada coming towards them. The remaining servants either
took cover inside the castle or just ran off into the woods. They
wanted no part of this fight.

"I want this palace completely surrounded," General Paulson
ordered, "I don't want anyone getting out of that castle without
us knowing about it. I want every gun, cannon, tank, and launcher
pointed at the center of that building, but don't fire until I give
the order. Understood?"
--------------------
"I hope this works," Maria said as she held the glass
filled with the new formula. She stared at it for a couple seconds,
wishing it could speak to her and assure her that it would work. Then
with one big gulp she drank the formula. She then stood still,
waiting for the formula effects to start. After a minute that seemed
like an eternity there was nothing.

"God damn it!" Maria shouted, "what the hell
is...."

Suddenly, a sharp pain gripped her stomach, causing her to bend over.
The pain quickly shot through her entire body. Her blood veins felt
like they were on fire. Her heart must have been pounding over 200
beats per minute, and her head felt as if her brain was matching that
beat. "What's...happening...to...me?" she uttered out,
"why...aren't...I...growing?" She could see that a glow of
light was forming inside her body, around where her appendix was.
Then, as if on instinct, she shot her right arm out towards the wall
for stability, only to find no wall there. Instead, a beam of
electricity shot out from one of the plugs in the wall right towards
her outstretched hand. Soon the remaining sockets in the room shot
out similar bolts, landing at different portions of her body. She
seemed paralyzed by the electricity that was now flowing through her.
The lights flickered and then went black so that the only light in
the windowless lab was coming from Maria's abdomen, which was ge!
tting brighter and brighter every second.  Her long, black hair was
now standing on edge as the room was filling up with static
electricity. She let out a loud cry as the light completely enveloped
her body. Suddenly there was a bright flash, and in an instant the
room was pitch black.

Maria looked at her hands and could see tiny bolts of electricity
bouncing between her fingers. The glow around her appendix was still
there, but was much dimmer than before.

"God," she said, "I feel so powerful!"

Then she could feel her shoes and clothes tightening, and her head
starting to rise up. "Yes," she said, "it's working!
IT'S WORKING!"
----------------
"Alright," the general announced into the bullhorn,
"we have you surrounded. Surrender now or we'll open fire."

There was no response, not even a whisper, from inside the castle.

"You have one minute to come out, or we're coming in after
you."

A sound resembling thunder started rising from the castle,
accompanied by lots of creaking and smashing noises. Suddenly, a
tanned hand burst through the roof, then another. The hands began
stretching out, taking out large sections of the roof with it. Then a
head began to emerge from between the hands and arms. It didn't take
the general and his men long to recognize who the emerging figure
was.

"No General," The Giantess said, "it's you who must
surrender to the power of The Giantess."

She tossed her head back and her growth accelerated. In only seconds
her exposed breasts and mid section had emerged from above the nearly
1000 foot castle that was her home. The general ordered his troops to
open fire, but there was no sound in response to his command. Nearly
half of his troops were running away, and those that remained just
stood there in either shock or awe, watching this beautiful woman
rise up above them.

"I said," the general shouted to his remaining men,
"OPEN FIRE!"

Every tank and cannon still manned suddenly began shooting at the
still growing Giantess.  The barrage totally decimated what was left
of the castle, but didn't seem to have any affect on her. She had
passed one mile in height and was still growing. She could feel the
tank and mortar shells exploded on her legs and feet. It felt like
little ants crawling on her body. Seeing that they were having no
affect on her, The Giantess let out a loud roar of laughter that
echoed among the clouds she could now see at eye level. This brought
the shooting to a sudden stop and the men had to cover their ears to
avoid shattering their eardrums. The Giantess was nearly two miles
tall when she decided to address the troops.

"What's the matter, boys? Can't stand a little noise? Well, I
gotta be honest with you, it's going to get even louder, because I
don't know how tall I'm gonna get."

Again she let out a loud roar of laughter as she approached three
miles in height.  Many of the soldiers collapsed to the ground,
wincing in pain and covering their ears as best they could. For most
it was just too much as they went into shock.

"Ah, isn't that too bad," The Giantess said mockingly,
"I guess I'll just have to put you out of your misery."

The Giantess gently moved her still expanding foot forward. To her,
it seemed like only a couple inches, but to the doomed soldiers below
her toes appeared to be coming at them from miles away at warp speed.
In a mere instant most of the troops were crushed. She then took one
more step forward and flattened on the rest. In only two small steps
she was able to destroy the entire armed force sent to arrest her,
and she was still growing, now passing the four mile mark.

"Let this be a lesson to all who oppose me," The Giantess
shouted, "I am The Giantess! The most powerful being on this
earth! I can and I will destroy all those who dare challenge
me!"

As if on command, the skies above and around The Giantess darkened.
The wind began howling across the now silent battlefield, and a heavy
rain began to fall. Another lightning bolt struck The Giantess in her
back, followed quickly by another, and then more in rapid succession.
None of them seemed to hurt her. A big smile that came across her
face suggested just the opposite. As she neared five miles in height,
she stretched out her arms to either side and tossed her head back as
the lightning strikes on her increased. Then out from her hands came
a large bolt of energy that shot out across the valley as far as the
eye can see.

"I am the most powerful being in the universe!" she
proclaimed, "No longer am I just a giantess. Today I have become
an omnipotent goddess! My power is now absolute!

Chapter 6 - The Coronation

It was only a matter of days before every government in the world
surrendered to The Giantess. If they couldn't defeat when she was two
miles tall, they thought, what chance did they have when she was five
miles tall? When she could walk across entire oceans and not get her
face wet? When one breath was more powerful than a dozen hurricanes?
When one step could cause an earthquake so powerful it could destroy
an entire country? When the forces of nature itself seem to subject
to her authority?

A crowd of more than 100,000 people had gathered at the University of
Michigan football stadium, awaiting the arrival of The Giantess. The
Giantess had personally selected the location since it was the
largest stadium in North America that was still standing. The heads
of state of almost every nation on earth was in attendance, along
with other politicians, military leaders, industrialists and captains
of industry, and any other person The Giantess deemed to be
important. They had all been summoned to this makeshift castle to
witness the most significant coronation in the history of mankind.
Television crews from all over the world were also there to broadcast
the ceremony worldwide. Every television set that was on was watching
this event, as The Giantess had ordered all other shows off the air.

The crowd sat with a hushed murmur as the trumpets announced that the
ceremony was about to begin. Symphony orchestras from around the
world had been assembled for this event, nearly 10,000 musicians in
all, though some of them had to be brought over in chains and
shackles after initially refusing The Giantess' invitation. Following
the initial fanfare, the orchestra broke into a lighter piece as a
flurry of activity began to occur on the opposite side of the field.
A large group of people emerged from the tunnel with a giant piece of
purple cloth. This was the royal gown that The Giantess had ordered
to be made specifically for this ceremony. The newspapers still
allowed to print had reported that it stretched more than a thousand
feet in both directions. It had been neatly folded up so it could fit
inside the football stadium, but the weight was so immense that it
could several hundred of the world's strongest men and women to carry
it in.

Once the robe had been placed on the field a squadron of helicopters
flew into the stadium in a tight formation. Suspended by rope from
the helicopters was a giant crown. It glowed in the afternoon sun in
a dazzling array of colors. All of the gold reserves at Fort Knox had
been used in its creation. It contained jewels contributed from every
country on the earth, including pearls from Japan and diamonds from
South Africa. The orchestra had stopped playing as the sound of the
approaching helicopters had drowned them out. No one was paying
attention to the band anyway as the crowd stood in awe of the crown,
bracing themselves as best they could from the wind generated by the
copter blades. The helicopters gently lowered the crown down on the
field, workers raced out and detached the cables, and then they flew
away from the stadium, satisfied with a job well done.

The orchestra was then cued to begin playing The Giantess' entrance
music. She had selected the award ceremony march from Star Wars, as
it was one of her favorite movies growing up. As a little girl she
had imagined herself as Princess Leia, and now as a much bigger woman
she could live out that fantasy. For this portion of the ceremony she
had chosen to be 15 feet tall, large enough to been seen and
respected by the crowd but small enough to fully appreciate the
event. She entered wearing a full-length black mink coat specially
tailored for her size, along with black leather boots.

Marching ahead of her was the newly appointed archbishop of the
Giantess Church. She had asked the Pope to perform the ceremony, but
out of principle he refused. As a result of his actions The Giantess
had gone to Vatican City and crushed the Pope and his church out of
existence. All other religions were subsequently banned, except for a
new church that worshipped her and her alone as a goddess. To
reinforce her status as a deity, this ceremony was modeled after
several ancient coronation ceremonies were the ruler to be was deemed
chosen by God to rule.

The Giantess stood at one end of the field as the archbishop and his
clerics bowed down before her. Almost everyone in the crowd mimicked
this behavior. The few that refused were quickly escorted from the
stadium by security. "Do you," the archbishop began,
"The Giantess, willfully accept your rightful place as ruler of
this world?'

"I do," The Giantess replied.

"Do you accept the resignations of the heads of state gathered
here today, thereby granting you complete and total rule over the
nations they represent?"

"I do."

"Then by the power invested in me by yourself, I now pronounce
you empress of this land and all who dwell within it."

With that, the archbishop slowly rose, bid his farewell to The
Giantess, and quickly left. Four of the clerics made their way behind
The Giantess and began to disrobe her. A few in the crowd gasped as
it was revealed that The Giantess wore nothing underneath the coat.
After her boots had been removed the clerics took her clothing and
rushed away from the scene.

The Giantess began growing in front of the large crowd. Some ran for
the exits in fear, only to be stopped by the ever present security.
The rest bowed down and began chanting her name as she continued to
climb above them. The chants grew louder and louder as she grew
taller and taller. The orchestra was quickly trying to gather their
instruments as the feet of The Giantess was rapidly approaching them.
Her toes had already made it past the robe and crown at midfield. 

She decided to stop growing when she reached 2,000 feet in height, at
which point her feet covered the entire field. She reached down and
picked up the robe. So as to avoid sideswiping the crowd with the
cloth she carefully put the robe over her voluptuous body. She then
picked up the crown and placed it on top of her head. All the while
the crowd continued its rhythmic chanting. She then paused the survey
the crowd below. "I think some of you are not yet ready to
accept me as your master," she said. "Well, do I have a
little surprise for you. Come to me."

She closed her eyes and stretched out her arms. Suddenly a few
hundred in the crowd began rising up out of their seats. The
remaining crowd stopped chanting and looked in shock as the chosen
ones were being lifted in the air by some unknown force. Many were
kicking and screaming at air as they were being pulled up to The
Giantess as if a tractor beam from the starship Enterprise had
gripped them. Finally, they landed on top of The Giantess' extended
hands.

"You thought my only power was growth, huh?" The Giantess
mockingly told her captives. "Well, guess what? I have several
powers now, including telekinesis. After all, I couldn't be an
omnipotent goddess if all I could do was get really big, now could I?
And now let me show you another of my new tricks."

The Giantess placed her right hand just above the left one that was
holding the captives. They covered themselves thinking they were
about to be squashed.  Instead, lightning bolts began shooting out of
her fingertips, striking each person and killing them instantly. The
Giantess could hear each one scream as the bolt struck and enjoyed
every one. Finally, after the last one was struck dead she smashed
her hands together, crushing all of the dead bodies into dust.

"From this day forward," she addressed to the crowd,
"you shall refer to me as The Goddess, Master and Ruler of this
world. Obey me, worship me, or perish at my feet."

Chapter 7 - Escape From Cheyenne Mountain

Shocked by The Goddess' display of power at the coronation ceremony,
the former President of the United States went into hiding, using one
of the bunkers built inside a Colorado mountain some years ago in
case the old Soviet Union decided to launch another kind of
Armageddon. This time The President decided that he wasn't going to
make the mistake of his predecessor and sit by and watch this woman
take control of his country. Using a network of secret contacts, he
arranged for a meeting with some of the top scientific minds left who
had not been corrupted by The Goddess, including some of her old
friends.

"OK everyone," The President began, "you all know why
we are here. Somehow, we have to find a way to stop this woman who
now calls herself a goddess. Millions of people are dead, billions of
dollars in damage and destruction, all because of one woman's lust
for power. And now, God damn it, she's acquired powers and abilities
that far exceed anything she's had before. How did it get this far?
Why didn't we kill her when we had a chance?"

None of the men in the room wanted to answer that question. They all
just stared at the ground or at the wall, not willing to face The
President and explain why. "Every one of us in this room,"
The President continued, "not just Agent John Price, or Dr Simon
Jones from Bichem, but all of us, including myself, have had the
opportunity to take her down before she became a giantess, before she
became a goddess, and we all failed. We all failed because we trusted
a woman whose lust for power has no bounds, whose only real motives
were to assume total control over every living being on this planet
and now has the power to do exactly that. So gentlemen, it's now up
to us to stop her before it's too late."

"We've been working on a new shrinking formula," answered
Dr. Jones, "that's a variation of the one we used before. We're
not sure if it'll work. We were starting to run tests when Maria
closed our operation down."

"Do you still have the formula?" asked the Secretary of
Defense.

"Yes, sir, my colleagues and I snuck some out of the lab. I have
it hidden away at an undisclosed location."

"But will this shrinking formula be effective?" asked Agent
Price. "It appears that she can do more than just grow into a
giantess. Even if we shrink her down she could still shoot lightning
bolts at us or use her powers of telekinesis. How do we stop
that?"

"I don't know," replied Dr. Jones, "I don't know how
she came up with those powers, so how can I find a formula to
counteract them?"

"That's not acceptable," added The President, "we have
to find a way to stop them. There has to be a way. She just didn't
develop those abilities naturally. She must have done something,
developed some chemical or formula that gave her those powers, and if
she did then there must be an antidote."

Outside the mountain entrance, the guards stood with nervous
anticipation. They realized that if The Goddess found out what was
happening inside the bunker that there would be serious hell to pay.
Even though the meeting was a closely guarded secret, each of them
knew that The Goddess could have spies everywhere, or perhaps she
could now read minds too. None of them knew what to think. They all
saw what she did at the coronation ceremony to those other world
leaders, and because they decided to stick by their president rather
than join The Goddess' army as some of their colleagues had down that
they were as much a target as the men inside.

Up in the guard shack sat Sgt. Hogan, scouting the surrounding area
for intruders or, more likely, agents of the Giantess Church who
might attempt a terrorist attack. Suddenly, a low, booming sound
could be heard coming from the west. At first Sgt. Hogan thought it
was practice artillery fire, but then quickly remembered there were
no troops around who could be doing that. He trained his binoculars
to the west but could not see anything but mountains. A minute or two
later, he heard the sound again, only this time it was louder. He
again turned to the west, but this time he saw a giant head floating
above the mountains.

"Oh, shit! It's her! It's her!" Sgt. Price shouted to the
men below. "It's The Goddess! She's coming this way!"

The guards at the tunnel entrance turned to the west and could now
clearly see her coming from miles away, but they could not believe
what they saw. It was The Goddess all right, this time appearing to
be only about a few hundred feet tall. But what amazed the guards was
that there wasn't any kind of the ground movement that normally
announced her arrival. Some of the guards noticed that her head was
perfectly still, not bouncing up and down as it normally would if she
were walking. Their curiosity turned into shock when she cleared the
last ridge and approached the facility. She wasn't walking at all,
they saw, she was flying towards them.

The Goddess stopped just short of the tunnel entrance, and hovered a
couple hundred feet over it. She wore one of her ceremonial robes,
though the men on the ground could clearly see that there was nothing
underneath.

"So. Mr. President, I hear that you and some of your little
friends don't want to worship me," The Goddess began. "This
is most unfortunate, for now you must pay the price for your
sins."

The Goddess lifted up her right hand, which began emitting a bright
yellow glow. Bolts of electricity began streaming out of her glowing
hand, which in a matter of seconds enveloped the entire mountain.
Every piece of electrical equipment in the area, from generators, to
transformers, to lights, began exploding. The guards outside the
tunnel ran inside in fear. Inside the bunker the lights flickered and
went out. Screams of "what happened?" and "what's
going on?" filled the room until the emergency generator brought
the lights back on.

"Mr. President! Mr. President!" one of the guards shouted
as they entered the room.

"What?"

"It's The Goddess, Sir," the guard replied, "she's
attacking the facility."

"Oh my God."

Chapter 8 - The Mouse Trap

The men in the bunker stared at each other in stunned silence. The
light emanating from the emergency lights as well as the exploding
computers allowed the men to see that no one appeared to know what to
do. The silence was finally interrupted by the sounds of falling
debris coming from the ceiling, just missing The President by only a
few inches. "Gentlemen," The President said, "I
suggest we get out of here now!"

Once she noticed that all of the power was out, The Goddess lowered
her hands and stopped the electrical flow. "So you think you can
just hide in there to escape from me?" she said. "No one
escapes from me!" The Goddess lowered herself down to the
ground, took off her robe and proceeded to stuff it inside the
tunnel, blocking any attempt to escape. She then flew up from the
tunnel entrance to the top of the mountain, and lowered herself down
onto the solid rock. The mountain gave some from the weight but did
not collapse. "Now it's time to bury you once and for all,"
she said. The Goddess then tossed her head back and let out a long,
evil laugh. She thrust her hands upward with purpose and began to
grow.

The President, along with his assembled team and the guards were all
running towards the entrance to the tunnel, but were forced to stop
by the wall of fabric The Goddess has stuffed into the entrance.
Debris continued to fall from the collapsing ceiling above. The
emergency lights also started falling from the walls and ceiling,
plunging the tunnel into darkness.

"Now what do we do?" Agent Price asked.

"There's a second exit on the other side of the facility,"
one of the guards replied as he turned on his flashlight.

"Do you think we can get there in time?"

"I don't think we have any other choice," The President
replied. "Guard, lead us there."

"Yes Sir!"

The Goddess has reached nearly 2000 feet in height when she looked
down and noticed that she was only making a small dent into the
mountain. "Damn it!" she shouted, "I have to get
bigger! Bigger! BIGGER!" Like a little girl throwing a tantrum,
she began stomping on the mountain in frustration. Her metabolism
responded by accelerating her growth.

The men running inside could hear the thunder coming from The Goddess
getting louder and louder with each step. Their pace increased to a
full sprint. They ran past the War Room and saw that she had turned
it into a disaster area. All the video wall screens had fallen, all
of the computers were on fire, and debris covered the entire floor.
They could also feel their ears start to pop due to the increasing
air pressure from the weight The Goddess was placing on them.
Surprisingly, the entire party was still uninjured, though the
Secretary of Defense looked like he was about to have a heart attack.

"Here it is, Sir, the second way out," the lead guard said.

"Great, let's go!" replied The President.

The group could indeed see the small emergency exit door that the
guard had mentioned, and raced towards it. Suddenly, however, a
waterfall of rock and concrete fell in front of them, blocking their
path and causing them to stop. A second later, another pile of debris
fell, but this time it was accompanied by what looked like a large
tanned toe.

"Penetration at last!" the mile high Goddess shouted as she
looked down. She moved her still expanding foot into the facility and
towards the men, who quickly turned around and ran back inside. After
carving a trench into the mountain that took out all three Cabinet
secretaries, The Goddess lifted her foot up out of the mountain and
slammed it back down on an adjacent area. This time the mountain
simply could not take any more and collapsed under her foot. 20 more
men died in the collapse, including her old boss Dr. Jones. Her
increasing success in penetrating the mountain fueled a burst of
adrenaline in The Goddess, causing her growth rate to increase even
more. She past two miles in height when she stomped on the mountain
again, and this time half the mountain came down.

The President, Agent Price, and two of the guards were the only ones
in the group who made it back to the main entrance. Everyone else had
been crushed by either falling debris or by The Goddess' feet. The
guards began shooting at the fabric hoping to punch some holes in it,
but they quickly realized it was useless. They dropped their weapons,
turned to face their Commander-in-Chief, and saluted him.

"Mr. President," Agent Price said, echoing the sentiments
of the guards, "it's been an honor to serve you."

"Gentlemen," The President replied as her returned the
salute, "the honor has been mine. Thank you, and may God have
mercy on our souls."

Suddenly, the right foot of the three-mile tall Goddess punctured
through the mountain where the four men were standing, killing them
instantly.

The Goddess continued to stomp on the mountain, and continued to grow
as she did so. By the time she stopped she was almost six miles tall,
and her feet covered what was left of the entire mountain. She looked
down to see that she was now standing in a crater, and that every man
made object in sight was destroyed. Again, she let out an evil laugh
that echoed through the atmosphere, and then suddenly stopped. She
began feeling lightheaded and dizzy. "Must be...the
thin...air...or some...thi..." she said before passing out and
collapsing into the crater.

Several hours later, The Goddess awoke and found herself naked and at
her old height of just over five feet tall. She also found herself
alone laying on the edge of the crater she had created. 

"God, I feel so tired," she said. She then looked around,
surveying the scene of destruction that she had created. "Am I
good or what?" she asked herself, "but I'd sure like to
know why I passed out and why I'm so small." She sat at the edge
of the crater and thought about what happened. "Maybe there is a
limit on how tall I can grow. Or maybe on how much electricity I can
generate. Or maybe, hmmm, maybe it's both. There must be a limit on
how much...energy! That's it! That's got to be it! There's a limit on
how much energy I can use. I have to remember this next time. But,
how do I generate more energy?"

She leaned back to absorb the heat from the hot summer sun now
beaming down on her nude body. She pictured herself lying on the
beach, just like she did as a teenager, without a care in the world.
A heat sensation began to develop inside her, starting around her
abdomen and working its way through her entire body. At first she
didn't pay it much attention, figuring it was just the heat from the
sun. But soon it felt like her entire body was on fire. She quickly
stood up, looked around frantically for a place in the shade, and
didn't see any close by. She started to run towards what looked like
trees in the distance but quickly stopped as another sensation began
to pulsate through her body. But this feeling was not foreign to her.
She looked down at the ground and instantly recognized what was
happening. She was growing again.

"It's the sun!" she shouted gleefully. "I can use the
energy from the sun! Oh this is so cool! I truly am invincible!"

In no time at all she was back at 500 feet in height. She decided to
stop her growth and use her solar energy to lift herself off the
ground and fly back to her castle, laughing and reveling in her newly
discovered power.

Chapter 9 - The Executioner's Song

The orders from The Goddess were short and to the point, Christina
Martin was to be executed immediately. No explanations or reasons
were given in the message, but neither the warden nor the guards
needed one. Christina knew how to become a giantess and that made her
a threat to The Goddess.

"Dead man walking!" the guard announced as Christina came
out of her cell, accompanied by the warden, the prison chaplain, and
five armed guards. The final walk to the chamber was a somber one.
Christina made few friends in prison so there was no crying or best
wishes coming from the other cells. Even though none of her fellow
prisoners were all that sorry to see her go, there was no hooting or
hollering from the cells either, because each execution was a not so
subtle reminder that their turn could be next. Christina would not
have been bothered by them anyway. She was completely oblivious to
everything around her. Her dirty blonde hair draping over her
shoulders and around her chest, she stared at the concrete floor for
the entire walk to the chamber. The priest was reciting last rites to
her but she did not respond to any of his prayers. She was beyond
salvation now, she thought, there was no way that God would forgive
her for the sins she committed.

She finally looked up when they reached the chamber, and there is
was. The chair. She had imagined it would look like something out of
a Frankenstein movie and was not disappointed. Leather straps and
wires covered it, with the wires leading from the chair to a large
box at the side of the room. Sure enough, the man standing next to
the box was wearing a black hood, just like in the medieval stories
she read as a kid. She also noticed a large crowd had assembled in
the witness gallery, but none of faces looked familiar to her. They
were all from the press, all wanting to see first hand the execution
of the woman who single-handedly destroyed two large American cities.

Christina was placed into the chair and the guards began to strap her
down and wire her up. The priest continued to recite prayers and
continued to get no response. Then the expression on her face
suddenly changed from sadness to anger. "Where is Denise?"
she thought. "Didn't she say she had a plan? Where the hell is
she? Wasn't she going to save me from this? Where the HELL is she?
Was I dreaming, or did I really see her? WHERE THE HELL IS SHE?"

The blindfold was placed over her eyes. "Any last words?"
the warden asked. 

"Denise!" Christina replied, "where are you? Where are
you?"

The warden had a perplexed look on his face as Christina continued to
cry out for Denise. Finally he gave the order and the executioner
flipped the switch. Her cries suddenly stopped as 50,000 watts of
electricity shot through her body. After ten seconds the switch was
turned off as everyone stared at the chair. Something was wrong, the
warden thought. Her body should have gone limp or gone into
convulsions as all the others had, but Christina just sat there
motionless and upright as if she was watching TV or something. He
could also see that not only was she still breathing, but also
breathing heavily. "Do it again," the warden ordered, and
again the switch was pulled, and again there was no reaction at all
from Christina.

Creaking sounds started emanating from the chair. Christina was still
silent but a smile began to emerge from her face, which added to the
warden's confusion. He then looked at the leather straps restraining
Christina and noticed that they were stretching. "Oh my
God!" he shouted, "SHE'S GROWING!"

"YES!" Christina cried out in response, "I can feel
it!"

She raised up her arms and tore the straps off from the chair. She
then raised her legs and the straps there did the same. Her body was
quickly filling the chair, pushing the armrests and over as she
continued to push up against them. Freed from her constraints, she
stood up from the chair and in the process tore her prison garb in
half. With some difficulty, she managed to pull off the blindfold.
She looked down from her 10-foot high vantage point and saw not only
the gallery running away in fear, but also 5 guards with rifles
pointed directly at her.

"Shoot her, shoot her!" yelled the warden.

Each of the guards fired their first rounds at the expanding
titaness, who turned to shield herself from them. Three of the five
bullets hit her body, penetrating her skin and drawing blood.
However, it was not enough to put her down. She turned back around
and hit her head on the 18-foot high ceiling, bringing down the
lights on top of the guards. With the guards on the ground Christina
took the opportunity to make a break for the exit. Barely able to
walk, she stepped over the debris and the guards and makes her way
out of the chamber and into the cellblock. Very quickly she was
reduced to her hands and knees as her body was rapidly filling up the
hall and pushing up against the cells. She could hear the guards
shooting behind her. This time the guards couldn't miss her, but now
she was big enough to not be affected by the bullets.

She made it to the far end of the cellblock but was too big to get
through the door to the main cell area. "I've had enough of
this!" she shouted as she pushed up against the concrete wall
around the door. The wall quickly collapsed, burying a group of
guards who had gathered on the other side after being alerted to the
danger in the chamber. Even with the wall down, Christina had a hard
time squeezing her 25-foot frame through. However, the concrete floor
on the other side was not strong enough to support her weight and
collapsed. Everyone on the floor fell down three stories to the
ground. Christina landing on a pile of debris and people, crushing 40
guards and inmates instantly.  She rose up to her full height of 35
feet and saw the warden standing back at the chamber door with a look
of disbelief. For the first time in months, she smiled and winked at
the warden before turning away and running.

Since the building was five stories high she could stand without
trouble, but she hoped that would not last for long. Each step
created a loud thud that echo throughout the building. Rapidly
approaching the far wall, she put her shoulders down with the intent
of ramming through the thick concrete. She was successful on the
first try, and emerged from the cellblock as a 48-foot tall free
woman. All of the remaining guards opened fire on the giantess, but
she just smiled and told them, "you silly boys, you think you
can stop me now?"

She began stomping her feet on the ground, now 60 feet below her
head. The shockwaves knocked down all of the guards, which brought an
end to the shooting. The guard towers began to sway as the pounding
continued and got stronger with each step. The guards in the towers
tried to escape but the towers were moving too much for them to go
anywhere. Finally they began collapsing, one by one, killing the
tower guards and anyone unfortunate to be underneath them.

The 80 foot tall Christina then turned her attention to the
buildings. Many had sustained damaged during the manufactured
earthquake, but were still standing. Not quite tall enough yet to
step on them, she went the side of one building and began pushing on
it, trying to knock it down. She could hear the screams of the people
inside but no longer cared. Finally she was able to push it over,
which in turn took out three more just behind it.

"That's for the way you treated me," the 100-foot tall
giantess said. "I just love destroying prisons."

She walked over the rubble from the destroyed buildings and started
attacking the next one still standing. This time the building only
came up to her thighs, so she raised her right foot up over the
building and pushed it down right into the center. The building
reacted as if it had been imploded as it quickly collapsed on to
itself.  Christina let out a cry of ecstasy. The systematic
destruction of the prison was turning her on immensely, and as if
fueled by her hormones her growth rate accelerated. When she moved on
to the next building she was already over 200 feet tall and still
climbing. "They're easy to destroy now," she thought,
almost too easy." By the time she made it to the last building
standing she was nearly 1000 feet tall. Now all she had to do was
nudge the side of the building a little bit to bring it down.

She noticed that some of the guards and prisoners had managed to
escape, and were frantically trying to run away. She stood with her
hands on her lips and laughed. "Where do you think you're
going?" she told them. She took only a couple steps and planted
herself right on top of them. Hundreds were instantly crushed. Over
half a mile tall at this point, she resumed stomping on the ground,
causing ruptures to appear that swallowed up everyone who was still
alive.

Christina's growth finally stopped at 4,000 feet. She stood over the
prison and surveyed the scene. Every building was destroyed, huge
holes (some filled with debris) covered the landscape. If any human
was still alive they were in hiding. To Christina, it was pure
ecstasy. She began feeling herself up, reveling in the moment. Her
moans of pleasure could be heard from miles around. She was
approaching her climax when a ball of light appeared in front of her.
It was bright enough to get her to stop. The light expanded until it
was more than a mile tall and began to form into a shape of a woman.
Then suddenly there was a bright flash of light. When it dissipated
Christina looked up to see a mile high tall Denise Guerra.

"Oh it feels so good to be a giantess again," Denise said. 

"Now you show up," Christina replied, "where the hell
were you?"

"I had to let things play out as they should."

"What?"

"It's all part of the plan," Denise replied, "I knew
that if you got electrocuted that you would become a giantess again,
and that it was the only way to get you out of there."

"Well why didn't you tell me about this electricity thing
before? I could have stuck my finger in a socket or something."

"I'll explain everything later, but now we have to go before The
Goddess finds out what's happened."

"Go where?" Christina asked.

"I'll show you," Denise replied.

Suddenly there was a flash of light, and both Denise and Christina
disappeared.

Chapter 10 - Better Than Sex

The area around the former Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant had
become a vast, lifeless wasteland ever since it's destruction by
Denise Guerra. It was still highly contaminated with radiation, which
had killed off every living thing except for the cockroaches and a
few weeds. The US Army had evacuated everyone within 100 miles who
was still alive after the explosion and sealed off the land from
visitors, actions that The Goddess took no exception to when she
assumed power. It was just like Chernobyl, only with warmer weather.
Thus there was no one there to notice the sudden appearance of two
nude teenage giantesses.

"What are we doing here," Christina asked.

"This is where I transformed from a human into an energy
being," Denise replied, "and I've brought you here in hopes
that the same thing will happen to you."

"How?"

"There's still a lot of radiation around here," Denise
replied, "I couldn't have used all of it up. And it was
radiation that transformed me."

"But I don't feel any diff...."

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through Christina's entire body. She
wrapped both of her hands around her stomach and fell down on her
knees. She started feeling nauseous and lightheaded. "What's
happening to me?" she cried out. "I don't know!"
answered Denise with a confused look. Christina bent over and vomited
all over what was once the city of San Luis Obispo. Denise could see
that red spots were beginning to appear on Christina's body.

"Get me out of here!" Christina cried before vomiting again.

"Not yet!" Denise answered. "This shouldn't be
happening! Give me a minute to figure something out!"

Christina could barely understand what Denise was saying. Everything
had become a blur. She could no longer make out the features of the
land around her or determine where Denise was standing. Her mind felt
like it was spinning out of control while the rest of her body
throbbed in pain. She was convinced she was going to die. Then
everything stopped just as suddenly as it started. The pain, the
nausea, everything. Christina got back up on her feet and looked
around. There was no sign of Denise anywhere. Then a tingling
sensation began coursing through her body. She looked down and
noticed she was moving away from the ground below.

"It's working!" Christina cried out, "I'm
growing!"

Indeed, she was growing. She began to move her hands and arms around
her body, aroused by what was happening to her. Her entire body had
become one giant erogenous zone that was getting larger by the
minute. Cries of ecstasy could have been heard for miles around. Her
private parts had become moist and very sensitive, so sensitive that
the feeling of the wind rushing into them took her feelings of
passion to another level. She had never experienced sex before but
she was sure that this had to better.

By the time she stopped growing Christina was now four times taller
than she was before. While disappointed that she did not turn into an
energy being like her friend had, she was still thrilled to be able
to see for hundreds of miles around her.

"This is everything I've ever dreamed of," Christina cried
out. "Now I will be worshipped as a goddess. Thanks, Den ...Hey,
where are you?"

Chapter 11 - 'Scuse Me While I Kiss The Sky

Thousands of Seattle residents made their way inside the Kingdome for
their Goddess Ceremony, which The Goddess had ordered every major
world city still standing to perform on a regular basis for her.
Since she now considered herself a deity, she felt that it was only
appropriate for ritualistic ceremonies be held in her honor just as
thousands of other gods and goddesses had for thousands of years.

At midfield there was a muscular man strapped down to a large table
decorated on all four sides with images of The Goddess. Selected from
the University of Washington football team, the young man was the
sacrifice to be offered to The Goddess. He met all of the necessary
criteria: tall, muscular, rugged good looks. The Goddess did not like
her offerings to be meek or unattractive, and often punished those
cities that did not offer qualified sacrifices by leveling them into
dust. His body, except for the head, had been shaved down and he had
been dressed in nothing more than red briefs. His hands and arms were
strapped to the altar with heavy steel straps and a cloth had been
wrapped over his mouth to muffle the inevitable screaming.

The Goddess entered from the south end zone, dressed in a long,
slinky, red nightgown and red stiletto heels specially made for these
ceremonies. Her initial height varied but for today she emerged at a
height of 9 feet tall. A large entourage of priests and slaves
accompanied her as the capacity crowd bowed and chanted her name.

She walked up the altar and inspected the man lying down in front of
her. The priests looked on with nervous anticipation, which turned
into relief when she turned and signaled her approval. The entourage
quickly scurried into the shadows as the lights in the stadium dimmed
except for the spotlight focused on the altar.

The Goddess casually strolled around the altar, running her fingers
along portions of the man's body. The cat came up front and looked
into the bulging eyes of her prey. She could see the fear in his eyes
and in his tensioned body. He should be afraid, The Goddess thought,
for no man had ever survived the experience he was about to go
through. She leaned over and caressed his neck with her lips and her
tongue. Even though the sacrifice was scared to death her act still
caused a bulge to appear in his briefs, the sign that The Goddess was
looking for to begin the next act of the drama.

The crowd sat with awe as The Goddess slowly disrobed and laid the
nightgown on the man's chest. She began growing, much to the delight
of the priest who knew this meant she was aroused. She went to the
end of the table and laid down on top of the trapped man. Her pumps,
which were barely dangled off of the end of her toes, flew into the
crowd when she kicked her feet up. Both the man and the altar were
feeling the strain of her increasing weight as she began rubbing her
hands on the chest of her victim. She maneuvered her hands over to
where the straps restrained the man's wrist, and with one thrust
pulled the steel plates off of the table.

She slid off of the table, and when she stood back on the ground she
towered over the man by a good 15 feet. She pulled off the restraints
from the man's legs with a broad smile. Even though he was now free,
the man stayed motionless on the altar. A couple men tried to run
away at this point, only to be caught and crushed by The Goddess. The
sacrifices were discouraged by the clerics to avoid trying to escape,
not only because it was futile but also it would anger The Goddess
and end up with the destruction of the city.

The Goddess lifted the man off of the table and held him up in front
of her as if he were a little baby. The gag was still in his mouth by
she could hear his muffled screams. With a couple fingernails she
pulled off the gag so now the entire stadium could hear his desperate
pleas.

"Is that better, little boy?" The Goddess asked, "Now
don't scream, you don't want me to punish you, now do you?"

The man instantly stopped screaming.

"Good," she said as she plucked off his briefs to reveal
his fully erect member, "well it looks like you have achieved
the proper position. Now please me."

Now close to 100 feet tall at this point, The Goddess placed the
man's shoulders between two of her fingers, inserted him inside her,
and began pumping him back and forth. The man started struggling to
break free, as he was encourage to do by the clerics as it usually
heightened The Goddess' experience. She began screaming in ecstasy,
which caused the crowd to crouch down and cover their ears. Finally,
she came, drowning her victim in a flood of juices. She took him out
of her body and dropped his dead carcass down on the ground.

Now came the moment of truth. The crowd stood in nervous anticipation
as they waited for The Goddess to pass judgement on them. The silence
was broken by one of the clerics, who ran onto the field with a
bullhorn. "Goddess, Goddess!!" he shouted, "I have
important news!"

"It better be for your sake, slave," replied The Goddess.
"What is it?"

The cleric hesitated for a minute before responding. "Christina
Martin has escaped from prison, and..uh...uh... she's become a
giantess."

"WHAT!!!" shouted The Goddess. "How did this happen!!!
Where is she?"

"In, uh, San Francisco, mamm."

"Then it is there that I will execute her myself."

The Goddess extended her hands over her head and blasted a hole
through The Kingdome roof. Large chunks of concrete came raining down
on the crowd who was now running for their lives. The Goddess
starting growing up through the roof of the stadium. Thousands in and
around the Seattle downtown area immediately stopped what they were
doing and started running for cover, fearing that The Goddess was
going to destroy the city.

"Don't worry, little people," The Goddess told them,
"I'm not going to punish you today, I have a bigger issue to
deal with." With that The Goddess turned and walked off in a
southerly direction.

Chapter 12 - Summer Solstice

Few people despised The Goddess more than Kristen Summers. Her older
brother worked at the biochemical facility where Maria Santos first
grew to giantess proportions, and was among her first victims.
Kristen never forgave her for that, as well as for spawning all of
the other giantesses since then. She went to high school with both
Christina Martin and Denise Guerra, and she could not believe her
eyes as she watched the two women in separate attacks destroy her
home, her school, her hometown of San Diego, everything that defined
her life up till that point. The last straw came when her father, who
had just moved to Phoenix to start a new life, was crushed by The
Goddess during an attack on the city caused by her disappointment
with the sacrifice offered to her there.

Kristen had been sent to study in Sydney, Australia, by her parents
so that she could be as far away from the giantesses as possible. It
was there that she learned about her father's death and resolved to
do something about it. Her motivation grew stronger when The Goddess
acquired a large area of land north of Sydney and built a huge
mansion to serve as a vacation retreat. To protest this, Kristen
attempted to organize an underground resistance movement to try and
stop the construction. However, she was only able to convince a
handful of people to join, and those who did could never agree on a
course of action. Thus the group quietly disbanded without even
attracting any attention from the pro-Goddess police force.

As was her custom on days when she didn't have class and the weather
was nice, Kristen went to the Royal Botanical Gardens and laid out a
large towel on the grass, where she lied down and started reading a
novel for her literature class. Occasionally she catch a glance and
smile from some of the male joggers running by during their lunch
break, but other than that she was left alone. That is until another
woman walked up to her from behind.

"Are you Kristen Summers," the woman asked with an American
accent.

"Yes," Kristen said as she rolled over to look at the
unfamiliar face addressing her. "Who are you?"

"My name is Shannon Jones," she replied as she sat down
next to Kristen, "and I hear you're looking for people to fight
The Goddess."

"No," Kristen answered with an unsure voice, "I'm
not."

"Don't worry, I'm not with the police. I'm not even from around
here. My parents sent me here from America to get away from The
Goddess, just like you."

"How do you know that?"

"Well you're obviously not Australian, and I figured that every
American student at university is here for the same reason as
me."

"So you're a student too?"

"Yes," Shannon replied, "that's where I heard about
your group."

"Well then I guess you haven't heard that there is no more
group," Kristen said, "no one could agree on what to do so
we just gave up."

"What if I told you that I have an idea on how to attack The
Goddess. Would you be interested?"

"I guess so."

"Good, do you have a car nearby?"

"Yes."

"Then let's go, I'll explain everything on the way."

"On the way to where?"

"To The Goddess' mansion, of course."

Shannon had Kristen park about a half mile from the perimeter of The
Goddess' land, and the two women made it by foot to the perimeter
fence.

"So let's go over the plan again," Shannon said, "we
sneak into the mansion, get into the lab and steal the formula so
that we can develop a antidote. OK?"

"Do you know where the lab is?" Kristen asked.

"Yes, I do. I know a couple people who work here and who are
sympathetic to our cause."

"And are you sure we won't get caught?"

"Yes, my friends told me that not all of the security cameras
are working yet. So if we follow the right path we can in and out
without ever being noticed. So are you with me?"

"Yeah, let's go."

The two women climbed over the fence and snuck around the bushes that
surrounded the mansion. They found a window in the garage that was
conveniently left open and was not visible from the main house. The
women were blessed with good genes that left them both tall enough
and thin enough to reach the window and climb through it. From the
corridor there was a narrow passageway to the main house with rooms
on either side. Shannon was told that one of these rooms was the
laboratory, so both she and Kristen slowly opened the each door to
check for lab equipment. Finally, Shannon opened the third door from
the end and found what she was looking for.

"Kristen, I found it," she whispered to her friend down the
hall. Kristen ran up and into the room, followed by Shannon who
quietly closed the door. They could hardly contain their giddiness
when they turned on the lights and saw a room full of lab equipment,
and a large glass filled with green liquid.

"I wonder what this is?" Kristen asked.

"We don't have time to check," Shannon responded.
"C'mon, let's find the papers with the formula and go."

They slowly walked passed the table where the liquid was sitting when
a loud alarm went off.

"Oh, shit!" Shannon exclaimed, "there must be motion
detectors!"

"We gotta get out of here! What do we do?" Kristen asked.

Shannon reached for the liquid and held it in front of Kristen.
"Here, drink this," she said.

"But how do I know what this is?"

"Because I've seen it before."

Suddenly there was a flash of light, and in that instant Shannon
transformed into one of Kristen's old classmates.

"M..Monica?"

"Yes, it's me. No time to explain, just drink it, now! Or you'll
be dead!"

Kristen took the glass and drank down the contents. A warm, tingling
sensation quickly enveloped her entire body.

"What's happening to me?" Kristen asked.

Chapter 13 - Do You Know the Way to San Jose?

It had been over two and a half years since the San Francisco Bay
Area had seen a giantess up close and personal. There was the little
giantess skirmish in the nearby Central Valley about a year ago, but
that had only caused minor damage. Indeed, the birthplace of The
Giantess had by and large rebuilt itself into a prosperous region
again. It also helped that they were able to supply a steady stream
of acceptable sacrifices to The Goddess.

"Well look what we have here," Christina announced from
16,000 feet above San Jose. "A totally undamaged place for me to
play with." She slowly started walking to the north, taking out
an entire city block with each step. She was savoring every step. The
feel of hundreds of buildings and people crushed under the soles of
her feet gave her the feeling of power, ultimate power, that she had
sorely missed when she was incarcerated. She was getting revenge now,
for all of the abuse she suffered in prison, for all of the threats
on her life, for the lack of respect she felt she suffered when she
was a giantess before. She was going to make them pay now, even if
she had to destroy every city, town, and village in America.

When she reached the outskirts of downtown San Jose she got on her
knees to closely survey the situation. As expected, the populace
below were in panic, running in all directions hoping to save their
lives. "Why are you running away from me?" she asked them.
"I'm much nicer than The Goddess. I'll even prove it to
you." She puckered her lips and blew a giant kiss down on the
crowd. The hurricane force winds blew over everything that was not
bolted down to something, including people, trees, cars, trucks,
light poles, and some small buildings. Christina inhaled deeply and
blew out an even bigger kiss, creating a path of destruction almost
two miles wide. She laughed loudly, shattering every window in the
area that was still in one piece. She scooped up a group of people
who were still lying on the ground and brought them up to her face.

"You silly little humans," she told them, "you thought
you could just shrink me and lock me away forever, huh? Haven't you
learned anything? I'm a giantess, a goddess! Thousands of times more
powerful than any of you. Don't you know that you can never defeat a
goddess?"

Suddenly a heavy gust of wind came in from the north. The gust was
accompanied by an increase in air pressure that caused everyone's
ears to pop. The people on the ground knew what was coming and
immediately ran into the nearest building. "Where are you
going?" Christina asked them. "I'm not finished with you
yet."

"I could say the same thing about you," said a booming
voice from behind. Christina immediately dropped the people in her
hand and turned around towards where the familiar voice came from.
"Oh shit," she muttered as a nearly 4 mile tall Goddess
approached her position.

"So you think you're a goddess now, eh little girl?" The
Goddess asked. "Let's see how you stack up against a real
goddess."

Christina rose to her feet and started running towards The Goddess.
The Goddess responded simply by raising her right hand, which
immediately stopped Christina in her tracks. She struggled to move
against the force field The Goddess had apparently formed around her.

"What…is…happening?" Christina asked.

"You silly girl," The Goddess replied, "I guess you
haven't heard, I can do more than just grow. Now watch and learn why
you can never hope to defeat me."

The Goddess lifted her right hand. The force field around Christina
intensified, not allowing her to move any part of her body. While she
could not look down to verify it, she could feel her feet losing
contact with the ground below. She could not believe it, but The
Goddess was actually lifting her enormous body into the air using
only her mind. Some of the local mortals who had fled for cover when
The Goddess appeared were now emerging from the nearby buildings with
stunned looks on their faces, for they to could not believe what they
were seeing. A few even got on their knees and prayed to The Goddess.
When Christina rose so that she was now eye to eye with The Goddess,
the deity displayed a broad smile to her captive and then flung her
arm towards the east. Christina immediately went flying across San
Jose and slammed into the eastern mountains. The shockwaves from the
impact could be felt a hundred miles away.

Large bruises developed all over Christina's back, arms, and legs.
She slowly rose to her feet as The Goddess walked over to her
position. "I guess you haven't learned your lesson yet,"
The Goddess said, "good, because I'm just getting started."

Christina used every ounce of energy she had to charge at The
Goddess. She hit head on like a linebacker hoping to knock The
Goddess down, but instead she stood still like a brick wall.
Christina hit her again and again, hoping that with persistence alone
she could wear her down. However, the entire time The Goddess just
stood there, laughing and, unfortunately for Christina, growing. The
Goddess then reached down and picked Christina up like she was
lifting a baby.

"You are so pitiful," The Goddess told a weeping Christina.
"You actually thought that you could challenge me? I'm the most
powerful being this world has ever known. You're just a big girl, and
that's just not good enough. Goodbye, Christina Martin, goodbye and
good riddens!"

The Goddess threw Christina into the Sierra Nevada mountain range
head first, knocking her unconscious. Her body tumbled uncontrollably
over and through the mountains like a car falling down a cliff.
Gallons on blood flew in all directions, coating the mountains with a
dark red color. A deafening, thundering sound echoed through the
canyons and the Central Valley below. The impact was so severe that
even The Goddess could feel the ground shake. Her tumbling finally
stopped when she fell into Yosemite Valley, crushing thousands of
unsuspecting tourists, trees, and wildlife.

The Goddess walked over to where Christina laid, following the path
that Christina had cut through the mountains. Her victim lay there
motionless and silent, her body covered in blood. Both her arms and
legs appeared to be broken. The Goddess reached down and grabbed her
wrist, checking for a pulse. There was none. The Goddess dropped her
arm and stared at Christina, shaking her head. The realization of
Christina's death changed The Goddess' emotions from rage to regret.
For the first time she actually felt sorry for Christina. She
recalled that she was responsible for Christina becoming a giantess
in the first place, as it was she and Leanne that first recruited
Christina to be part of the giantess army. She also can't be blamed
for seizing the opportunity that presented itself when Christina
found the diary with the giantess formula. "I would have done
the same thing she did," The Goddess thought to herself,
"and she did rescue me from prison. I wouldn't be here if it
were!
n't for her. But I just can't have other giantesses running around if
I'm going to maintain control. I just can't." The Goddess slowly
turned and walked away.

Chapter 14 - Escape to the Outback

Kristen looked down and could not believe what she saw.  Her normally
loose fitting clothing was now tightening up against her skin. Her
shirt had lifted out of her shorts, pulled up by her expanding
breasts. She could also see as well as feel her toes pushing up tight
to the ends of her shoes. When she entered the laboratory she was a
good three to four inches shorter than Shannon/Denise, but now she
noticed that she was at eye level and rising.

"What's happening to me?" Kristen asked.

"You're becoming a giantess," Denise replied. "Doesn't
it feel great?"

"But I don't want to be a giantess!" Kristen shouted. She
stretched out her arms in frustration, tearing both of her
shirtsleeves in two. "I've spent my life fighting against them,
I don't want to become one."

The leather in Kristen's tennis shoes blew apart, revealing her
well-manicured and expanding toes. Her breasts relentless pressure on
her shirt caused it to rip in half. The lower half was rapidly
becoming nothing more than rope around the bottom of her breasts,
while the top half dangled precariously from her neck.

"But don't you see," Denise replied, "you can't fight
The Goddess as a regular person. She's much too powerful. The only
way to defeat her is to become like her."

"But why me?" Kristen asked while looking down at Denise,
who could barely hear her over the sound of broken glass, tearing
cloth, and collapsing tables.

"Because we know how much you hate The Goddess, and the evil she
represents," Denise replied. She had to take a couple steps back
as Kristen was rapidly filling the room. "And we figured that if
we made you into a giantess you would be the least likely to switch
sides and join her."

Suddenly there was pounding on the door that drew a frightened glance
from Denise and Kristen. "Alright," the guard on the other
side yelled, "you're surrounded. Come out now and no one gets
hurt."

"I don't have time to explain all of the details," Denise
said. "Let's just say this is all part of a master plan to
defeat The Goddess, and we need your help. Now I have to go help out
another friend of mine."

" I'm giving you to the count of 10, and then we're coming
in!" shouted the guard.

Kristen's head was now touching the ceiling. Her clothing had become
nothing more than torn rags dangling form her arms and waist. Her
undergarments had also become casualties of her expanding mass, as
they lay on the floor next to her destroyed shoes and various pieces
of cloth.

"Why are you leaving? How am I going to fight those guards by
myself?" Kristen asked.

"You're a giantess now," Denise replied as she started
fading into a glowing light that surrounded her. "Those guards
will be no match for you. Don't worry, I'll be back soon!"

The guards burst into the room and were immediately blinded by the
vanishing Denise. When they uncovered their eyes they saw Kristen
filling up the entire room. They opened fire, and Kristen responded
instinctively by bringing her arms up to cover her head. Instead,
both of her hands hit the roof of the building, punching large holes
in the roof and sending large piles of debris down on to of the
guards. Kristen peaked out between her arms and noticed both the roof
openings and the buried guards. Seizing upon the respite from the
guard's attack, she started punching more holes in the roof, raining
down more debris on the guards. Once she made the hole large enough,
she stood up and found the top of the building only made it up to her
waist. She could also see that the rest of the mansion personnel were
either scrambling for cover or setting up firing positions at her.

"I've got to get out of here," the 50-foot titaness
muttered as she reached down to clear out the building in front of
her. With hands bigger than a bulldozer it didn't take long to knock
down the rest of the structure. She could hear the shouts of the
remaining guards in the building but they did not draw a reaction
from her, she was too busy trying to figure out an escape route. 
Finally, she began to move, and quickly started running towards the
forest surrounding the mansion. The tremors from her steps knock the
guards off their feet and caused several chunks of debris to fall off
the surrounding buildings. When she made it to the forest she could
see over the 100-foot tall trees. She could also see that even though
she was easy to track no one was pursuing her. 

"I've got to find some open space," she told herself as she
continued to grow, "I've got to get out of populated
areas."

She started running east towards the Blue Mountains, figuring that it
was the best place for a giantess to hide and figure out what to do
next. Now over 500 feet tall, her steps were creating deeper and
deeper craters in the ground, and stronger and stronger earthquakes
that could be felt as far away as Sydney Harbour. Buildings in Sydney
and the surrounding towns began to sway, bringing down lights and
ceilings onto scared occupants below. Cracks began to appear on the
old sandstone structures on Macquarie Street, which were never
designed for earth movement like this. People were in a panic,
thinking The Goddess was coming to punish them or just have some fun.

The Goddess was also on the Kristen's mind too. Now that she was a
giantess, The Goddess would surely come after her, and while she now
was one of the most powerful humans around, she was still no match
for the awesome power The Goddess had. As she approached the
mountains, she could see that she was as tall as the highest peak,
which was both good news and bad. The good news was that her climb
over the mountains would be an easy one. The bad news was that she
was now too tall to use them to hide from her queen.

Once making it over the mountains and into the high country, the mile
high Kristen sat down on the ground. Much to her surprise, she wasn't
tried or thirsty, she just needed time to think. Her growth had come
to a stop, none too soon as far as she was concerned. "What am I
going to do now?" she asked herself. "What am I going to
do?"

Chapter 15 - Discovery

Denise assumed that Christina would head north to terrorize the
citizens once she became a giantess again. She didn't approve of her
friend's behavior, but given what she had planned she figured it
would be good for Christina to have some fun before things got
serious. It also fit into her plan to defeat The Goddess. Christina's
actions would certainly draw the attention of The Goddess, who would
naturally go to where Christina was to fight her. Only The Goddess
would find that she had to fight not one but two giantesses, as
Denise would join her friend in the fight. Denise thought she had
enough power to take on The Goddess on her own, but was convinced by
the one who developed the plan that another giantess was needed.
Kristen Summers was a backup plan in case The Goddess decided to
ignore Christina or, God forbid, Christina decided to double cross
her friend.

Thus Denise materialized as a giantess inside San Francisco Bay
looking for two giant women. Much to her confusion, she didn't see
any. However, it didn't take long for her to notice evidence that
there were giantesses, as there were large craters in the earth
around where downtown San Jose used to be. The streets were deserted
except for fire trucks and police cars on the outskirts of the battle
zone. "Looks like Tina's been busy," Denise told herself,
"I think she's outdone herself this time. Now where is
she?"

Denise looked around, calling out Christina's name. She then noticed
that the hillsides on the east side of town didn't look like what she
remembered. She walked over slowly, staring intently at the ground
below. She reached the site and got on her knees for a closer look.
There were two large craters, one that extended into the hills and
one that was adjacent to the hills and significantly deeper than the
other one. Denise also noticed that one of the holes had a large pool
of red water at the bottom. She dropped her finger into the pool and
brought it up to her eyes. "This isn't water," she said,
"this is blood." "Oh my God," she cried after a
brief pause, "is this Tina's…. No! No! No!"

Denise leaped to her feet and searched frantically for Tina. She
started growing taller to try and get a better look. When she was
tall enough to see over the hills she could see that there were deep
craters in the Central Valley and what appeared to be a wide canyon
in the Sierras beyond. Quickly, she sprinted towards the new canyon,
inadvertently creating more earthquake damage throughout central
California. It didn't take long for her to see Christina's broken
body lying motionless on the mountain floor. It caused Denise to
immediately stop her advancement and drop to her knees in sorrow.

"It wasn't supposed to be this way," Denise cried out,
"you weren't supposed to die! We were going to fight The Goddess
together! It wasn't supposed…to…be…this way."

Denise rose to her feet. The sadness she felt was now being replaced
by anger. She let out a large cry and stretched her arms upward.
Immediately she was engulfed in a giant flash of light that was
accompanied by a loud sonic boom. Everything within 20 miles of where
Denise was standing was incinerated. A strong gust of wind blew out
in all directions, bringing down trees, power lines, and anything
else still standing. The few surviving eyewitnesses would later
report that it seemed as if an atomic bomb had gone off. When
everything had cleared a giant ball of energy hovering over Christina
replaced what was a three-mile tall woman. It had to be nearly 10
miles wide in all directions. Then a female voice reverberated across
the sky.

"I will find you, Maria," the voice said, "I will find
you and I will destroy you!"

Chapter 16 - Clash of the Titans

The Goddess arrived at her vacation home in Australia looking to rest
and reenergize. The fight with Christina along with the flight from
America took a lot out of her. She was so tried when she landed at
her mansion that she failed to notice the damage to the lab caused by
Kristen Summers. She instead shrank down to 8 feet tall and summoned
her slaves to bring her new clothes.

"Is it finished yet?" she asked.

"Almost," one of them replied, "the main house is done
but they're still working on the lab." This was the story that
the slaves agreed they would try to sell to The Goddess to explain
the damage.

"When will that be finished? I specifically ordered the
contractor to finish the laboratory as soon as possible."

"There've been some unexpected delays, madam."

"That is not acceptable," The Goddess replied, "take
me to the lab now! I want to see it. And someone get the contractor
over here right now. He will pay for disobeying my orders."

The slaves scattered in all directions, leaving only one to escort
The Goddess to the damaged lab. Instead of performing their assigned
duties, some of them ran for the hills, anticipating that The Goddess
would some become very large and very angry. They only had a couple
minutes to escape as she had quickly made it over to the lab.

"What the hell is this?" The Goddess asked. "It looks
like it's been blown up or something. What the hell happened?"

"Yes madam, there was an explosion," replied the slave with
his best poker face on, "just a short time before you
arrived."

"Do you know what caused … ooof." The Goddess fell down
into a 15-foot deep hole, which vaguely resembled the shape of a
foot. She got up to her feet, dusted herself off, and quickly
surveyed the hole.

"What a minute," she said, "this looks like a foot.
But…." The Goddess then looked at her slave with anger and
disgust. "You lied to me," she said in a deeper voice,
"there was no explosion. Someone broke in and drank my
formula!"

The slave turned and ran once he heard the sound of tearing cloth
coming from the hole. In mere seconds The Goddess' face had emerged
from the hole, looking very angry and growing larger. Every other
person within sight of the hole began running for his or her lives.
Those with the courage to stop and look could see that The Goddess'
growth rate was accelerating to a phenomenal 50 feet a second,
resembling a rocket emerging from its silo. "You fucking
cowards!" she yelled at them, "you've disobeyed me for the
last time!" She raised her still-expanding arms and shot out
streams of electricity in all directions, creating a field of
electricity that electrocuted everyone on the grounds. 15 seconds
later The Goddess stopped her assault and saw that her strike was
completely effective, all of her slaves were lying dead on the ground
below. Now approaching one mile in height she turned her attention to
the series of craters leading of towards the mountains. "That
must be her footp!
rints," The Goddess told herself, "that'll make it easy to
find her." Still growing at a fast rate, The Goddess ran off
following the trail of footprints.

"There you are," The Goddess announced as she approached
Kristen, who was sitting on the ground with her head in her hands.
Kristen looked up to see a woman over four miles tall standing over
her. "Thought you could become a giantess and hide from me,
huh?" The Goddess asked.

"Honest," Kristen replied, "I don't want to be a
giantess. It was an accident. Please don't hurt me."

"Your pleas for mercy have been heard, little girl, and
rejected."

Suddenly there was a bright flash of light in the sky above both
women, causing them to shield their eyes. They uncovered them to see
Denise Guerra, nearly five miles tall and hovering just in front of
them. "Maria," proclaimed Denise, "your tyrannical
rule over this world are over! Go to hell!"

Blasts of energy shot out from Denise and hit The Goddess squarely on
the chest. The impact knocked her to the ground, barely missing
Kristen who quickly rolled away. The Goddess lay motionless on the
ground for a few moments, and then started laughing. "You
fool," she said as she started to get up, "don't you know
that energy only makes me stronger!" The Goddess started growing
again, much to the amazement of both Kristen and Denise. "I am a
goddess," she said in between maniacal burst of laughter,
"I am immortal! I am omnipotent! You cannot kill me! But I can
kill anyone I want, even giantesses."

Kristen began rising up from the ground, and suddenly flew towards
The Goddess. The Goddess grabbed Kristen and held her tight to her
body, now 6 miles tall. "Here's the deal, Denise," The
Goddess said over the cries from Kristen, "since you can't kill
me and I apparently cannot kill you, I suggest a truce. Since you
seem to care so much for these people I will spare their lives,
starting with this girl here, if you just go away and leave me alone.
Or else I will destroy this girl and everyone else on this
planet!"

Denise stood there and thought about the proposal. She did not
anticipate that The Goddess would have the capability to absorb
energy. "If she can absorb energy," Denise thought,
"and this ability came from the same formula that Kristen drank,
then why isn't Kristen getting any stronger."

"C'mon Denise, I don't have all day!"

"She can also project bolts of electricity," Denise
continued thinking, "that couldn't have come from the formula or
else Kristen would be doing it too. So would've Tina, but … Tina
regrew after she was electrocuted, and there was that massive power
outage just before Maria had all those extra powers. Maybe if Kristen
were electrocuted she might…."

"Is it a deal or not?"

"No deal!" Denise announced. Suddenly Denise transformed
back into a giant ball of energy and flew right into Kristen's
stomach. "What the hell?" The Goddess asked as the impact
caused her to release Kristen. The unsuspecting giantess flew back a
good 10 miles before landing on her rear end. "Don't worry
Kristen," said a voice from within Kristen that sounded like
Denise, "you have nothing to fear now. You should now have all
of the powers that she does. Use them to destroy her."

"But I don't know how," Kristen thought.

"Yes you do," replied the voice, "because I will tell
you. You need to become as big as she is. Just concentrate on
growing. Think about all the evil things she has done. Think about
everything she has done to you. Think about how she killed your
brother and your father. Let those thoughts empower you, make you
stronger."

Kristen began growing rapidly. When she stood up The Goddess could
see that Kristen was now half her height and getting bigger. "I
command you to stop!" The Goddess ordered as she raised her hand
to create a field around Kristen. However, nothing was happening.
Kristen's fears began to diminish when she noticed this. "That's
right," the voice told her, "she has no powers over you.
You can defeat her. Try and get her to use as much energy as you can.
She's already used a lot in the last few hours, she has to be running
out of reserves."

"C'mon, girl," Kristen said, "is that all you can do?
I thought you were a goddess!"

The Goddess, spurred on by Kristen's taunts, started concentrating
harder on trying to stop Kristen's growth. It was still not working,
Kristen was now five miles tall and getting bigger. The Goddess shot
out a bolt of lightning at Kristen, which hit its target dead on. But
instead of falling backwards Kristen just laughed and kept growing.
The Goddess knew that she was running out of options, and fast. She
charged towards Kristen hoping to knock her down. The voice inside
Kristen said, "force field," and instantly The Goddess was
stopped dead in her tracks. The Goddess struggled to get through but
had no success. Kristen was now just as tall as The Goddess and still
growing. Her shadow now completely enveloped The Goddess and was
growing larger. The Goddess looked up and a look of panic swept
across her face.

"Who's the goddess now?" Kristen asked her now shorter foe.
"Looks like you finally met your match."

"We'll see about that!" The Goddess replied. She began
concentrating on growing again, hoping to match Kristen's height.
Beads of sweat began running out of The Goddess' body, as she was not
feeling anything happening.

"What's the matter, little girl?" Kristen asked. "Have
you reached the limit of your powers?"

The Goddess began feeling lightheaded as she concentrated harder on
trying to grow. "This can't be happening?" she said.
"Why aren't I growing? Oh, wait a minute … I feel something … Oh
no! I'm shrinking!"

Kristen, now almost seven miles tall, smiled broadly when she saw
what was happening to The Goddess. "She's shrinking," the
voice told her, "she's beaten. When she gets small enough crush
her!"

The Goddess dropped to her knees and began crying. Her greatest
nightmare was becoming a reality, and she knew that she was doomed.
She looked up and saw that Kristen had stopped growing, but that she
was still shrinking. Now less than a mile tall, her thoughts turned
to her old partner, the original Goddess Leanne Tran. She could have
used Leanne's help right then, and now she was going to suffer the
same fate as her. How ironic, her last thought would be.

"Goodbye, Goddess," Kristen said, "I hope you don't
rest in peace."

Kristen jumped into the air and both of her feet right on top of The
Goddess, crushing her instantly.

Epilogue - Class Dismissed

Groggy students slowly filtered into Dr. Adams history class Monday
morning. Normally the classroom would only be half full as many of
the students would still be at home recovering from weekend
hangovers. However, today the room was full like it was the previous
Friday, because the topic of discussion was what Dr. Adams liked to
call The Giantess Era. His giantess lectures were well known and very
popular around campus, especially since used pictures.

"Okay everyone, let's settle down," Dr. Adams announced as
he walked into the classroom, "we've got a lot to cover today.

The students settled into their desks, plugged in their computers,
and prepared for the lecture.

"Now," Dr. Adams began, "we left off Friday with the
defeat of The Goddess by Kristen Summers, whom we all know went on to
take her place as ruler. Yes, John?"

"Do we get to see any more pictures of her?"

"Sorry, no. I think we all know what she looked like."

A sigh of disappointment came from the boys in the class.

"Anyway, Kristen's rule was … good morning, Ms. Rice. Nice of
you to join us today."

Sandra Rice ran into the classroom looking like she just got out of
bed, which wasn't far from the truth. She typically skipped this
class to catch a few extra minutes of sleep, but she was not going to
miss class today. There were only a few people around that were more
fascinated, some might say obsessed, with giantesses than Sandra.
Almost from the time she learned how to read and write she wanted to
know everything about the giant women who ruled the world before she
was born. She read every piece of text available on the subject,
including the best selling "Goddess" novels by Sydney. She
had seen all three "Goddess" movies at least 20 times each
and had an autograph photo from the actress who played Maria Santos.
When she asked the actress whether or not she really was a giantess
or if it were all special effects, the actress just winked her eye
and turned away. 

More than anything else, she wanted to be a giantess and had been
trying for years to find the magic formula that had been lost for
almost 50 years. She had chosen molecular biology as a college major
and spent as much free time as she could experimenting with growth
hormones, genes, anything she could get her hands on. She even
researched magic books and the occult to see if there was any spell
she could cast that would grant Sandra her life long dream.

Sandra flashed a quick shrug of contempt at her teacher and took her
seat in the back of the classroom. In addition to her computer, she
pulled a large thermos out from her bag and set it on her desk.

"As I was saying," the professor continued, "Kristen's
rule was different from the giantesses that came before her. She
allowed the former governments of every country in the world to be
established. Private industry was allowed again. Cities that had been
reduced to rubble were allowed to rebuild, often with Kristen herself
assisting in the construction."

Sandra wasn't taking any notes. She was fully aware of what Kristen
did, and it bored her. She couldn't understand why someone with so
much power would refuse to use it. She contemplated that thought as
she stared at the thermos. "If I were her," she thought,
"if I were her." She opened up the thermos, grabbed it with
both hands, and quickly drank down the contents.

"Under Kristen's rule, life slowly returned to normal. She had
two restrictions, can anybody name them? Yes, Mr. Sanchez."

"She didn't allow any armies and she didn't allow anyone to make
growth formula."

"Correct."

Sandra was totally oblivious to the lecture happening around her, and
her entire body felt like it was on fire. She began to feel the
leather of her sandal straps pressing up against her feet and her
belt tightening around her waist. She quickly removed her glasses,
leaned back in her chair, and closed her eyes.

"In your computers you should have a detailed account of the
Battle of the Balkans, where Kristen crushed both the Serbian Army
and the Croatian Army, who had secretly assembled armed forces to
fight each other in resumption of their age old conflict. It was the
first and, as it turned out, last challenge to Kristen's reign."

Sandra was in a state of euphoria. Both her sandal straps and her
belt had come loose from their restraints. She could feel her sandals
now sliding underneath her feet that had now grown over them. The
zipper on her shorts was now travelling downward while the bottom
ends were creeping in the opposite direction. With every breath she
could see her chest get larger and larger and feel her T-shirt moving
up to expose more and more of her torso. She could also her creaking
sounds coming from the chair as it was straining to carry her
increasing weight. This caught the attention of the student sitting
next to her, whose facial expressions changed from curiosity to
fascination to fear in a matter of seconds.

"One side effect of her new powers, we later learned, what that
her life span was shortened considerably. Can anyone tell me how old
Kristen was when she died?"

"I can," said a deep, booming voice from the back. The
entire class turned around and gasped as one as Sandra Rice stood up.
Her shorts were now torn rags on the floor, and her shirt dangled
from the shoulders of her powerful 10-foot tall frame. She reached up
and pushed up against the 12-foot high ceiling, quickly punching a
large hole through the tile. Someone in the class screamed, which
seemed to snap everyone out of the shock of seeing a woman grow
before their very eyes. The entire class scurried for the exits, with
the sound of Sandra's laughing ringing on their ears.

When the students made it outside the building, they could see that
Sandra had shed all of her clothing and had penetrated through the
building roof. She looked down at her former classmates, now at least
20 feet below her, and declared, "I am the New Goddess. Master
and Ruler of this world. Obey me, worship me, or perish at my
feet."

THE END
