Day 2 – Biraal City
Biraal City witnessed two young women use the cities’ architecture as sex toys and aphrodisiacs. People stood on the streets and in their homes in absolute disbelief, basking in the death of thousands just for the sake of a few minutes of sexual deviance and pleasure. Emergency crews were arranged, and large pieces of construction equipment were transported across the city. Crews began to clean the streets where the skyscrapers were lifted to the sky by Lacy, some of the larger tools were used to start drilling into the wax that walled off entire districts from each other and encased thousands within the solid material, some pieces of equipment used harsher methods, cutting, and burning ruthlessly into the material to clear it from the streets, which further damaged the preserved bodies inside. The debris and chunks of wax were hauled into oversized transport trucks and taken to the broken warehouses where they would attempt to carve out the well-preserved dead.
The large building that Kiyoko swallowed whole was ripped from its foundation leaving no trace of it, making it easier for the crews to caution off the area. The building grabbed by Lacy that she attempted to shove inside her sex was split three-fourths down leaving the bottom ripped, broken, and burning. The emergency crews tried their best to put out the flames, but it was taking all night, people still trapped inside the bottom of the building were screaming for help while buried in rubble. It was dark in Lacy’s bedroom, the flames glowed leaving a pleasant night-light for the young giant women who were whispering to each other under the blankets playfully. The brave responders of Biraal finally extinguished the flames while the two giant women slept in Lacy’s bed embracing one another naked. The citizens nearly shook from fear with each restful breath the giantesses took while they were softly sleeping in each other’s tattooed arms.
While the crews were working, and regular citizens participated in the slow cleanup a young girl was shouting around the steps at the city hall. She rambled on about how the other city was so cruelly flattened under Kiyoko and that the same thing could easily happen to them if they didn’t listen to her words. She asked for all those to step forward and repent, repent in the names of Lacy and Kiyoko, their new gods. Most of the people just ignored her, thinking she was just some fanatic that couldn’t deal with the situation rationally, until she caught the ears of many of the people in the area with some peculiar words. “Don’t you see? This is punishment for all those who have wronged the innocent”. The girl continued, “I alone have the power to communicate with them, you must all listen to me…” The girl smirked, a fiery glow in her eyes, “My name is Elle, and I am your only chance to live…” her words rang across the masses…

Day 3 - Quara
The mighty country of Quara collectively grew demoralized when they finally saw the young women’s faces after they lifted the table dozens of miles into the air above them, after days of seeing their miles long feet carry their legs around the impossibly huge world that the microscopic people found themselves in, they realized they might not be so mighty anymore. Back on Quara’s world they had the largest military force and most advanced tech, nobody messed with the 46 million people that occupied the beautiful and vast territory.
In Quara’s society, the divine was chosen to rule. The monarchs were seen as powerful and all knowing, hundreds of years of history on their world proved right, until the blinding light took them away from everything they knew. The relatively young king was needed in their time of crisis, but he was too much of a coward to do anything, he just sat behind his council as they made all the decisions for him. After seeing the three 55-mile-tall women he was forced into a bunker deep below a chain of mountains far away from the capital. The council knew that the women were too powerful to realistically do anything, so they waited and prayed to their gods. If they were just left alone, they knew they could survive until their scientists figured out how to get them back home, they had enough food and supplies as the country was highly self-sustainable.

Day 3 - Jessica and Alpha Rho Epsilon’s Party
Jessica slammed the shot glass on the counter, the loud music filling the entire sorority house, Jessica winced a bit as her 6th shot of vodka burned down her throat. It was nearing 1am. “See! That wasn’t so bad!” Jessica’s friend said. Jessica wobbled in the kitchen slightly and her vision spun. “One more?” the sorority girl asked.
“Mmm… I don’t know…” Jessica languidly replied, holding herself up on the kitchen counter.
“Don’t be a bitch!” The girl snapped back while she poured another shot of cheap vodka.
“Alright, fine.” Jessica swept her wavy light brown hair back and stumbled to her left to pick up the glass, she gulped the vodka down once more and started to cough and gag, “fuck, I need a bathroom!” She shouted over the loud music.
“Use mine, upstairs two doors down on the left, it’s where you left your purse, remember?” The girl said, she walked off to the crowd of other sisters in the spacious living room to start dancing.
Jessica stumbled through the large living room and down the hallway to the main stairs by the front door. She grabbed on to the wood railing and hauled herself up, holding back her urge to vomit and dodging others walking down the stairs. Her sandals slapped against the wooded stairs until she made it to the carpeted hallway, she found the bedroom she was looking for and thrusted open the door, slamming it behind her, she shambled into her friend’s bathroom and began to vomit in the sink. After a few minutes of retching up vodka and cocktails Jessica rinsed out her mouth with water from the faucet. Jessica stared at her drunk self in the mirror while the music echoed faintly in the bathroom, her hair was a mess and her tears from the vomiting blurred away some of her eye makeup. She looked at her own eyes in the mirror, she questioned why she was the way she was. In a lazy decision of drunken mishap Jessica collapsed on her friend’s bed by her purse.
Jessica passed out in her friend's bed; a few hours must have gone by when Jessica heard a glass break downstairs waking her up from a deep hazy sleep. The music was quieter and the chatter from the girls on the first floor was calm, Jessica’s blurry vision picked out a digital clock on her friend’s nightstand, it was a little past 4am now. “Oh fuck! I forgot about thoshe little shits in my purshe” Jessica said aloud to herself, her speech slurred. Jessica had a headache and a horrible temper when she woke up, she was groggy and felt sick. Jessica remembered that she grabbed a smaller skyscraper out of her closet to enjoy at the party before she left. Jessica sat up at the bed and pulled her purse over her lap. She unzipped the bottom pocket and saw the tiny broken building nestled up against the soft fabric inside.
She tried to focus her eyes, but her blurry and spinning vision couldn’t recognize all the details clearly, all that she knew was that the building looked innocent, and it had hundreds of people taking shelter inside. “I’m still a goddess, drunk or sober,” she thought, Jessica reached down into her purse and fished out the tiny building, she held it in the palm of her right hand. A few dozen people took their chances outside of the building, they became trapped in the bottom of Jessica’s purse to be forgotten about and to eventually die of dehydration in a pitch-black world that would shake violently with each movement of the purse.
Jessica sized up the tiny structure laying in the palm of her hand, a scowl dominated her face and her eyes looked furious and annoyed. Jessica thought of her mother again, the beatings and being locked in the closet for hours when she was just an innocent little girl, it twisted Jessica’s drunken thoughts and made the rage grow in her mind. Jessica noticed a few speck-sized people trying to run across the soft skin of her hand in all directions away from the building. She started to close her right hand into a fist slowly sending the specks tumbling back towards the building, she felt the metal structure start to crumble and break in her hand until it was just a pile of dust and ash in the balled up fist, hundreds died as the structure bended to Jessica’s will, their world became black as the metal creaked and hissed, until finally the pressure from the soft skin of her hand snuffed the building out of existence.
Jessica opened her hand again, she examined the crushed building that lay in an almost powder on the palm of her hand, with her vision still blurry she blew outward scattering the dust of the building and the remnants of the pulverized bodies into the air where they would eventually settle as dust somewhere in her friend's bedroom. “Fuck you…” she whispered still thinking about her mother. Jessica drifted off to sleep again under her friend's plush blankets.

Day 3 – Grove View
Jessica woke up in her friend’s bed that afternoon, after sleeping for nearly 9 hours in a sorority house, she returned to Grove View, as she was walking up the stairs a beautiful Japanese girl with tattoos was walking down the stairs by her, but Jessica didn’t really pay attention. Jessica saw Lacy start to close the front door, Jessica grabbed the door scaring Lacy, “Oh my bad, I was just saying bye to my girlfriend” Lacy said.
“Oh, the Asian girl? Well, I’m just tired… I’m just gonna lay down for a while.” Jessica said, her eyes were red, and her hair was a mess, Lacy noticed that she smelled like alcohol too.
Jessica slouched to her room with a pounding headache and a nasty hangover, Jessica closed her bedroom door behind her and fell on her bed face down, she fell back asleep with the aim to sleep off her sickness.

Lacy returned to her room and grabbed a small trashcan under her desk, she crouched next to the desk chair and started to sweep off the remains of a flattened city into the bin with the side of her hand. Lacy got a little turned on again as she swept the city away, Ki was so sexy the way she danced over them she thought. Lacy saw only a few people moving around the flattened city, they must have been spared from Ki’s onslaught in the luckiest ways that Lacy could barely imagine. Once Lacy was satisfied that her chair was clean, she placed the trashcan under her desk again and sat on her bed, she pulled out her phone and began to text Elle.
“So… how did that look last night?” Lacy messaged.
“Honestly, it was a bit scary, but that’s why it was so amazing to watch.” Elle replied. “Oh, one more thing, I kind of have a plan… It involves me forming somewhat of a… community.”
“A community for what?” Lacy replied, her eyebrows lowered in confusion.
“Oh, you’ll see, this is a way for us to both to have fun, I have to get back to it though, don’t mess with downtown today, please, I’ll be there.” Elle messaged.
“Alright, let me know what happens…” Lacy replied and put her phone on her computer desk. Miranda agreed to let Lacy use her shower whenever she wanted as Miranda was serious about not causing any more harm to the speck sized people, especially when they were scattered all over Lacy’s bathtub. Lacy walked over to Miranda’s door and opened it without knocking, Lacy saw Miranda and Anastazja both laying on Miranda’s bed. “Oh, sorry, I’ll just come back later to shower…” Lacy said, closing the door gently.
*** *** ***
Anastazja and Miranda were growing closer as friends, they laid on Miranda’s bed and watched Ashton City as they talked about their goals for the tiny people. Miranda talked about her sister and Ana talked about hers. They agreed that no more people should be crushed or killed in any way, they both admitted to each other that they had unaware accidents involving the deaths of many, but that they should persist in trying to help them. Miranda and Ana gossiped about Jessica and Lacy, discussing if they could be trusted. They both determined that Jessica definitely did not care about them and that they should try to save the people from her. Miranda suggested that Lacy was hard to read and that they couldn’t really figure out if she was with them or against them, but that she would be smart enough to figure out what to do on her own.

Day 4 – Grove View
Jessica was fully recovered by the next day, she was up and showered, she had on some relaxing clothes and was messing with her laptop. She was occupied for the day studying all the syllabuses for her classes that would be starting soon, she ordered all her books and some extra supplies that she thought she might need. She started to become distracted by the thoughts of seeing her mother in less than 24 hours. She closed her laptop and fell back on her bed covering her face with her hands. “I don’t know what I’m gonna do…” she thought. “Maybe… I should explain to the girls what this means to me…’’ Multiple ideas kept racing through her mind, but she knew what she had to do. Jessica sent out a group text to her roommates asking to have dinner with her at the apartment later, Jessica even suggested that she would cook. All the girls texted back within a few minutes all agreeing that sounded good.
Jessica got up from her bed and walked over to her closet once more, she opened the door and looked down at the micro metropolis that sprawled out at her feet, she half expected some more resistance from her people’s army, but there was none, a wave of relief washed over her. Jessica stared at her large city in her spacious closet and began to speak with raw emotion, “I’m sorry for all the death and pain I’ve probably caused, it’s just that I have a lot of my mind right now… just don’t fight me anymore, okay?” Jessica revealed a rare and sincere smile, she grabbed some clothes and shoes out of her closet carefully, leaning over the city with no intention to cause harm, “Oh! I almost forgot…” Jessica reached her hands down to the center of the city picking up her strappy black high heels that she threw on the closet floor after the roommates had Mexican food, she placed the shoes on a small white shelf attached to the wall sparing the city from immense black obstacles that buried so many underneath. Jessica went to the grocery store to pick out some things that she would cook for her roommates for dinner to show some appreciation towards them.
Hours passed and the roommates were all sitting at the counter behind the sink, they each had chairs and watched Jessica cook as the ingredients sizzled on the pans atop the stove. Jessica fixed each roommate and herself a plate, she passed out the food and the girls started to enjoy their meal and talk to each other casually.
“This is actually really good Jess, like really good” Miranda said.
“Thanks, I just really wanted to explain to you all what my mother visiting means to me… she’s why I can sometimes be…” Jessica stopped and took another bite; Jessica seemed a little nervous to the other girls for the first time. Lacy rolled her eyes; she wasn’t buying Jessica’s attempt to reach for pity. Lacy dealt with girls like this all the time growing up, the bullies and the brats.
“It’s okay if you don’t want to speak about her” Ana said. Lacy looked back at the coffee table and the millions of people that might live under it, Lacy flipped her hair back and returned to eating.
“No, I really have to get this out…” Jessica sighed. “She was particularly abusive… she did things to me, I won’t mention them, but it sort of twisted my mind through the years, I act out sometimes…” Jessica said. “She’ll be here tomorrow.” She reaffirmed.
“Ohh… Jess, if you need anything you can like, always let me know!” Miranda said with a bright and wide smile.
“Well, does she know about the tiny people?” Lacy asked.
“No” Jessica responded while playing with her food.
“Well tell her not to come, it could be dangerous for all the tinies, nobody else needs to die” Miranda said with much concern.
“You guys don’t know my mom like I do, I can’t just tell her not to come, and I’m not going to tell her about them either, I’ll try to distract her out of the apartment for the day” Jessica said.
“I really hope that works, because she’s not coming in my room” Miranda said. The other girls nodded in agreement, nobody wanted Jessica’s mother in their room, and it would be too dangerous for their cities to have someone totally unaware to the situation.
The girls finished their delicious dinner and placed their plates and utensils in the sink. Ana and Miranda both returned to Miranda’s room to further bond with each other. Lacy and Jessica returned to their respective rooms to prepare for the next day...
