“Oh my God, what a rush. You can’t imagine what this feels like. Thank you, boys, for your help in making this happen.”

Before they could pick their tiny guns back up, I swatted them aside with my gargantuan fingers and blew them over with a gentle gust of my breath.

By the time I entered the fifth floor, I could feel rubble below crumbling as soon as it touched my body. Fires were starting, the flames lapping at my skin, but they didn’t do much more than make me even more relaxed. Plaster and steel cracked wherever I laid my fist or even turned my head. I didn’t have to move to wreck everything around me since I was growing so fast, but of course I did, because I couldn’t wait to see what would happen next. When I lifted my foot for the first time and set it down somewhere else in the collapsing lab, I felt a generator squashing under my heel like a soda can. When I pressed down and rolled it along my arch, it exploded into a chemical fireball, but only tickled my sole. I couldn’t help but laugh, and like a thunderclap, my voice easily overpowered the downfall of an entire laboratory complex.

It was wonderful.

The building was coming apart at the foundations just to fit around my growing body. I heard the stone rumbling below my bare feet, which now filled in most of the laboratory I was trapped inside not a minute ago. Girders crashed all around, and walls came tumbling over, but all it took was a wave of my hand or even a flick of my finger to clear it away. Windows blasted outward when I felt my ass swelling against the tiny pocketed panes. My body ascended fast through the sixth, seventh, and eighth floors. Each time I burst through another story, everything broke even easier, until I barely noticed it at all. My hips reached the east and west walls of the building, threatening to tear through it just like I’d outgrown my clothes. Most of the facility was a husk now, and what was left standing was only intact because I could hold it up.

“Everyone better watch out. I’m on my way now,” I announced, so anyone in a three-mile range could hear. I crossed my arms and inhaled slowly, just as the crown of my head tested the paper-thin brick of the roof. “I’d tell you all to get ready, but I don’t think anything could ever really prepare you for me.”

At once, I spread my arms wide and stretched my legs out. What remained of the building turned to splinters, most of it on me. I wiped away what I could, and for the first time had a real sense of just how big I’d gotten. I knew it had to be pretty damn huge as I counted the floors of the lab cracking one at a time, but only when I was standing almost as tall as the cityscape beyond did it really sink in how enormous I’d become, and I was only growing bigger all the time.

“Oh, this is going to be fun, isn’t it?” I said to myself, and laughed again. Just hearing the sound of my own voice and booming laughter span across the land filled me with delight. What’s more, that sense of exhilaration swimming within had made its way between my legs, and I wasn’t merely enjoying myself anymore. In fact, it went beyond plain old horniness. None of my random lays ever felt anywhere near this good. Hell, I’d never made myself feel this good. I staggered for a second, catching myself against a satellite tower beside the trashed laboratory. It curved and snapped off in my hand like a twig, but by then I’d adjusted, and knew I had to see this through. When I lifted my foot from where it landed, a few cars flat as flies peeled away, imprinted with the shape of my wrinkled sole.

I made my way along the winding road, through the shrub-height trees and toward the downtown area, which still twinkled against the black night sky. Every time I took a step, my foot sunk into the ground like beach sand and left behind a long swimming pool-sized crater. After I got used to this, I could move faster, crossing whole blocks in one stride. Only once I was halfway to the city did I notice that cars were still humming along the road, and a lot of them were now crushed flat into my footprints. There wasn’t really a point to watching my steps at this point, I thought, so I kept right on moving. This time I tried focusing on the sensation of every toy vehicle smashing to smithereens under my growing feet, slowly screeching and popping to scrap from the weight of my soles, which I found only enhanced the experience. I wanted to feel and savor everything now.

And God, did I ever. Even though I was eager to arrive in town and let the people see me outgrow the buildings, I couldn’t help but take a detour, wandering off the country road and down the hill toward a little suburb still with a few lights switched on in the windows to guide me. Yes, it would be fun to show off my progress in the city, but the lure of this side-trip was too great, just imagining half the neighborhood already asleep in their beds, only to awaken when their rooms shuddered from repeating aftershocks. Steps away now from reaching the closest backyard, already just barely large enough for me to set both feet inside without knocking over fences, I could picture the people sleepily drawing back the curtains to see what the fuss was about, expecting other neighbors concerned about the earthquake, but instead finding little ol’ me trespassing in whatever was left of their lawn after I finished trampling it. But, on the plus side for them, they’d come out of this with a free swimming pool pit wherever my foot landed. They really should’ve all thanked me.

Choosing my target, I wedged both feet into the fenced-in lot while I could still fit, then lifted one leg high over the roof before dropping my heel. I barely even had to touch the chimney to make the structure implode. Since I’d already bent and broken straight through the skeleton of the laboratory easier than a cheap Halloween costume, I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised at how effortless it was, but I was still getting used to the many delights of my new size, and every act was just as affecting as the first. A whole staircase cracked under my toes; appliances, furniture, and probably-residents were all pulverized to powder under the curve of my arch.

A fresh burst of the same thrill shot through me as my foot passed clean through the house, rafters and walls leaning in around my leg as I let my sole sink fully through the sagging floors, crushing them to sawdust all the way down to the basement. When I withdrew my foot, wriggling my toes and letting debris tumble like snow through the sensitive crevices, the crackling afterglow was even better. Now that most of the house had been redesigned with a massive blown-out void in the exact shape of my growing foot, the place was teetering on collapse, and all it took was a nudge from my big toe to finish leveling it.

“Yeah, okay,” I murmured in acknowledgement of the ecstasy burgeoning inside. “Maybe just one more.”
