"Counting the two that have been used, twenty." The robot answered.
Sally's widened faster than her body. "Twenty?"
The robot simply said 'yes' in response. Simple multiplication led Sally to the conclusion she could grow up to ten times her current size. There was only one problem; there wasn't enough room in the hangar.
"No thanks." Sally replied. "As tempting as it is, I won't be able to fit inside here."
"Incorrect." The robot said. "The flooring and walls in this facility are movable. If you are willing to wait, this facility can become large enough for your needs."
Sally was stunned for a moment. "Well, I suppose you can open this place up."
"Understood." The robot said. It transmitted the proper command to the central computer, and the restructuring began.

It took the better part of five minutes before Sally had the space she wanted. She was awed by the fact that something as big as the hangar was built so discreetly in the Great Forest. As she waddled over to the spot where she would inflate, she looked at the network of hoses and tanks that the robot had set up.
The tanks were connected by normal hoses, which connected to air pumps, and finally to the main hose that would put it all into Sally. The main hose, which was ten time larger than the others, was plugged into Sally's navel.
"All remaining 18 tanks are ready for use." The robot answered. "Do you wish to continue?"
"Yes." Sally answered. She was simultaneously eager and scared over how big she would be. Where will this story go next? Your choices are below...
