Robert and Jess walked downstairs, to see how Amanda was doing now. Not that either of them really cared about her. Hell, if they both had their way, Amanda would spend the rest of her life in a hamster cage.

"Hmm, that's not a bad idea," Robert thought to himself, as the two young lovers made their way into the living room.

For the past hour or so, Amanda had been shrouded in darkness. No lights in the tiny closet she was in, she had to feel her way around inside. She was roughly two feet, seven inches tall now, thanks to Robert, making any escapes she had in mind that much more difficult to pull off.

As her eyes adjusted to the dark, Amanda could make out a few objects that surrounded her. A can of Lysol and bug spray to her left, a few discarded and forgotten pots and pans to her right and a broom with an aluminum handle directly ahead of her. Not much to work with, but it had to be enough.

She pushed one of the larger pots against the closet door, then wedged the broom between the pot and the door.

Amanda climbed on top of the pot and very carefully began shimmying up the broom handle, in an effort to reach the knob...

Outside the door, in the kitchen, Robert and Amanda were talking. Robert had found the gun where he left it, on top of the stove.

"Please, Robert, make me as big as you,' Jess pleaded. "Just imagine the kind of fun we can have together when neither one of us has of hold back." She squeezed his massive wrist, infatuated with the kind of power Robert had and secretly wanting it all for herself...

A few moments passed, with no response. "You DO know I'm talking about sex, right?" Jess added.

"Yeah, yeah," he replied, brushing past her and approaching the closet. "Maybe later."

Inside the closet, Amanda was almost at the knob, oblivious to the conversation going on outside. The tiny teen made a leap for the knob and latched onto it, though now she had nothing to lean against for leverage and was now dangling helplessly off the ground.

Just then, Robert opened the door, nearly breaking it off its hinges in the process. The sudden shift in movement caused Amanda to lose her grip and she started falling towards the floor.

Almost immediately, Robert grabbed her by one of her legs and slowly brought hiss shrunken sister up to his face.

"You were trying to escape, weren't you?" he asked. Amanda just hung there, not saying a word.

"You little bitch," Jess said from behind her. "And to think we were being nice to you before."

"Really?" Amanda replied, turning her head slightly to catch a glimpse of her giant tormentor. "Shrinking me down to two and a half feet and locking me in a closet is your definition of 'nice?'"

Robert placed his sister on the floor. "Stay there," he commanded. He adjusted the controls on the gun and fired it at Amanda, causing her to shoot up to 4 feet tall.

"Robert, what the hell?" Jess protested. "Why did you grow her back?"

"You'll see," he replied, changing the gun's settings and firing at his girlfriend.

Immediately, Jess could feel her body changing and she closed her eyes, expecting to eventually become as large as Robert. She could feel her muscles growing, her body inching upward, her entire body being infused with raw power.

But after only a minute, the process stopped. Jess opened her eyes and looked down at herself. Her arms were nearly 21" in circumference. Her shoulders had become as broad and as thick as a linebacker's. She felt incredibly strong.

And yet, she only came up to the middle of Robert's chest.

"That's all I get?" Jess asked, expecting more.

"For now," Robert replied. "Look at it this way: you now have dominion over the one person you can't stand: Amanda." Jess looked down and saw that Amanda barely came up to her breasts. Amanda looked like a toothpick standing next to her.

"Well, it's a start," Jess replied, flexing her right arm experimentally and loving what she saw. She walked over to Amanda and grabbed her by the hips, lifting her over her head, arms fully extended. It was like Amanda weighed nothing at all. "Oh, this is gonna be SO fun," Jess said, looking up at Robert's sister, smiling deviously. She placed Amanda back on the floor.

"Here's my plan," Robert said. "This is Friday night. My parents are going to be away until late Sunday evening. I was thinking, you stay here with me for the next couple days and we make Amanda into our own personal slave. Really make her life a living hell. What do you say?"

Jess just stood there, contemplating her decision.

"Unless you can think of something better to do," Robert added.
