This choice: Jake makes Luke's muscles grow • Go Back...Chapter #5Jake makes Luke's muscles grow by: scriptboy  Jake ran back to his tent and crawled under the sleeping back after his strange encounter in the cavern. Strangely enough, he felt stronger… faster… more powerful. Still, he ignored the feelings and drifted off into a deep sleep.
When Luke woke up a few hours later, he got dressed and started gathering some wood for a fire. When Jake heard that Luke was already up, he put on his robe and his boots, and came out of his tent. As he looked around, he saw that Luke had started a pile of firewood.
“Good morning!” Luke shouted, since he spotted Jake from a distance. “See if you can get a fire going! I’ll get some more firewood, Jake!”
Jake walked over to the stack of branches, which were tossed over a small fire-pit, dug in the ground. This was near the tent, overlooking the lake and the x-wing landing site. The teen boy knew that he had to take two sticks and rub them together in order to produce so much heat, that he would eventually start a fire. But… would there be another way to do it?
Jake felt strange… He felt different. There was something inside of him that told him that there was a better way to start a fire… Using the Force!
He walked over to the pile of branches and he raised up his right hand. He pointed his index finger at the fire-pit, and took a deep breath, thinking of nothing else but a nice, hot fire burning before him.
A bright, blue spark suddenly shot from the tip of his finger, like a bolt of lightning, and struck the branches on the ground… Instantly setting all of them on fire! In fact, the flame which ignited was huge!
“Whoa!” Jake gasped. “Did… Did I do that?” he wondered in disbelief.
Luke had just made it back to the campsite, when he spotted the large, burning flame.
“Wow! You got a fire going already?” He asked Jake. “You’re fast!”
Luke then took a small pan and heated up some beans and soup, while holding the pan under the flame. He made something to eat for himself and for Jake, and the two young men enjoyed a quick, small breakfast together, while sitting on two large tree stumps.
Once they were done, Luke lead Jake to a grassy area near the lake, where they were surrounded by several boulders and rocks, neatly placed in front of the x-wing fighter.
“Now, let’s practice the art of levitation!” Luke instructed. “Use the Force to raise these rocks!”
Luke used the Force to raise a few rocks off the ground, and to make them hover in mid-air, before setting them back down again.
“Think you can do that?”
“Umm… Let me try!” Jake smiled.
Jake looked around him and focused on everything in sight, using the Force to make every item in view to levitate a few feet off the ground. Suddenly, about a dozen rocks and boulders, including three very large boulders, began to levitate above the ground! Next, the tents began to hover in mid-air as well! Jake just grinned as he was able to make so many things hover in mid-air all at once!
Jake then turned towards Luke, who was completely slack-jawed, and made him levitate as well!
“Hey! Whooaaa! JAKE!” Luke shouted, as his boots left the ground.
Finally, Jake turned to the x-wing fighter plane, and concentrated on that, even while he was still maintaining his mental grip on all the other objects at the same time. The space-plane suddenly began to lift off above the ground, but without its engines running! The fighter then climbed higher and higher, as Jake willed it to swing around in a full one-hundred-and-eighty degree turn, so that the nose of the space craft was pointing to the other direction. Then, Jake decided to make the x-wing fighter slowly descend back to the ground, until the landing gear touched down on the grass. Lastly, Jake set down all the boulders, the tents, and he allowed Luke to land back on his feet before him!
“That… That was just amazing!” Luke stuttered, as he walked up to Jake. “You… The Force is very, very strong with you! How… How did you do that?”
Jake just shrugged.
“I just use the Force and it happens!”
“Yes, but… Nobody is THAT strong!” Luke wondered.
“I can use the Force to do many things. I can feel it. I think… I think I can even change things… I can even change people! I can change YOU!” Jake realized, as the extent of his powers became clearer to him.
“What are you talking about?” Luke asked him. “Are you that strong in the Force?”
“Sure! Look… Let me try something, Uncle Luke!” Jake smiled, as he stared at his favorite Jedi-uncle.
Suddenly, Luke felt a tingling sensation in his arms, specifically in his biceps. His muscles quickly began to harden as they slowly started to inflate with raw muscle! Luke couldn’t help but flex his arms as some unknown, invisible force seemed to be pumping more muscle into his biceps! He moaned with pleasure as he felt an amazing surge of physical strength coursing through his arms! It was as if he had just enjoyed many hours’ worth of grueling workouts in the gym! His biceps kept on growing bigger and bigger, until they were almost as large and as round as bowling balls!
“My arms! My muscles! What… How did you do that?” Luke gasped, as he flexed his huge biceps, much to Jake’s amusement.
“I did that, Uncle Luke! I can manipulate your muscles by way of the Force! Isn’t that awesome?” Jake replied with a grin. “It’s so easy!”
“Wow… I have to take you back to the Jedi Training Academy on Sandooine… You’re just like a Jedi Master! What happened to you? What did you do?” Luke asked his nephew.
“Well… I… Uhh…” was the boy’s answer.
“Did you go back to that cavern where that blue sphere was being kept?” Luke asked him.
“Yeah… I woke up last night… I went into the cavern and I got zapped by that blue sphere! I don’t know what it did to me!” Jake explained. “Why? Am I in trouble? Did I do something wrong?”
“Obviously, the sphere has passed on all of its powers to you! We’ll go get it and place it in a bag, and we’ll take it back to the academy so they can analyze it…” Luke suggested.
Luke and Jake then broke up their camp and they retrieved the sphere from the cavern. The sphere had lost all of its power, and it was like a dark rock. The two Jedi Knights then climbed on board of the x-wing fighter and took off, to Sandooine, where Jake was to be reunited with all his other Jedi trainees. The only difference was that this time, Jake was already a Jedi Master. He was looking forward to using his new powers to making some of his friends’ muscles grow, including those of Uncle Luke, who could always use some more muscle on his body!
