Jess' gigantic body overflowed with power. She felt a strength in her chest unlike any her titanic muscles had known--a new and unfailing confidence, a certainty that she was, at last, an unquestionably superior being. Moments earlier, Amanda, empowered by some silly toy, had dared to challenge her dominance, but both got what they deserved: Amanda was once again a hapless, though highly developed, mortal, while Jess was... better. Greater. MORE. The strength inside her enormous muscles was enough to crush cities, tear mountains asunder, reshape the world according to its wielder's every wish. The rush was intoxicating. As the last of Amanda's power funneled into Jess, the giantess laughed--a harmonious laugh with a melody all its own. The sound alone entranced both Robert and Amanda. As the transfer ceased, the energy connecting Amanda to Jess dissipated, but the giantess was quick to catch her plummeting foe.

Despite her extraordinary size, Jess moved faster than any human could perceive, thanks to her new super-speed. She swept up Amanda in one giant hand and held her in an iron grasp. Jess expended no effort, but Amanda's struggled couldn't hope to budge the giant's fingers even a millimeter.

"When will you learn?" Jess taunted. "I'm bigger. I'm better. And I'm always gonna be!"

Amanda spun around to look toward Robert, who stood, mouth agape, admiring Jess' gargantuan curves. Now enhanced by super-energy, they were the most breathtaking sight on Earth.

"He won't help you," Jess said. "He's too busy drooling over his giant girlfriend. Excuse me--his SUPER giant girlfriend." With that, Jess kicked off from the ground and rocketed hundreds of feet into the air.

Jess grinned. "Like the view? I'm used to it, of course, since I'm so big now. I can see for miles now that I'm super. Across countries. I can hear... someone getting turned on, miles from here, by my new super-pheromones. Ooh!" Jess shook her hair, loosing a shower of her enchanting scent onto Amanda. "You like?"

Amanda did her best to resist. "You... won't... win...!" she said through gritted teeth.

"Oh, little Amanda, I already have. I'm taller than a skyscraper. I'm more built than a thousand bodybuilders. I'm as strong as Superman... if he were twenty stories tall! I'm pretty much a goddess by this point. And I'm only going to get stronger once I fly back down there--yeah, FLY--and take all your stupid guns from you and your brother!"

Amanda wasn't listening. The mention of Robert reminded her of the only chance she had. She spun around and mouthed the words-- SHOOT ME AGAIN-- in what she hoped was Robert's direction.

"Shoot you again?" Jess said aloud."

"How did you hear--"

"I'm SUPER JESS now, bitch! There's nothing I can't know, nothing I can't do, and nothing I can't have. I'm--"

Just then, a bolt of blue and red light arced through the sky and slammed straight into Amanda's face. She knew Robert had seen her signal with his enhanced vision and used his new powers to aim a final shot for a desperate last gambit. She only hoped the power would work correctly this time... she'd already be at a disadvantage if she were *merely* as super as Jess. What Jess would be like if she received a second dose of Amanada's powers was too scary to think about.

Amanda felt a rumble of energy growing in her system as the beam's power took effect...
