Mary waddled to her apartment, lugging the many bags of groceries behind her in a small cart. She opened the door and was shocked by the sight before her. Her friend appeared to have doubled in size! Jess had been laying on the kitchen floor, on top of the crushed remains of a chair that had collapsed beneath her weight. At the sight of Mary and the food, she jumped up, raising to a height of almost ten feet, her head brushing the ceiling. She rushed towards Mary, causing her to back away in fear, and then brushed past Mary and began to tear into the bags of food.
"What took you so long?" said Jess, between the bites of food she greedily devoured. "I'm starving. I don't think I have ever felt this hungry in my life."
"Jess, are you feeling okay?" asked Mary, as she stared at her friend. Her body was so wide that Mary doubted she could fit through the front door. She had to weigh almost a ton. Her skin looked different, too. Instead of pink, her skin looked like it was a dark red, and it looked thicker and tougher like leather. Her nose looked a little different, too. It was smaller, and less round, and the nostrils were smaller. Overall, her snout seemed longer and thinner. Her ears seemed shorter, too. Almost like they were retreating back into her head. Her tail, however, looked longer, and was losing some of its curl.
"Yeah, I feel great. Other than being hungry, that is. Why do you ask?" said Jess as she continued to make a pig of herself while eating.
"You just seem a bit different ..... and bigger, " said Mary.
"Well, I did take twice the dose of the pig vial. But who cares, I feel really good and I look even better. What's the matter? Jealous? " said Jess, as she leaned on her wide hips and posed for Mary.
"No, it's fine. I guess you are right, " said Mary.
"Then bring the rest of the food in here. I am starving, and I know you must be, too. Why don't you try a little more of the pig vial, and eat a little bit more. Then you'll look as good as me, " said Jess.
Mary had to admit, that did sound like a good idea. It did feel good to be a pig, especially when she ate. Being bigger like Jess probably made it feel even better. In total, she had given Jess a total of half a vial of the pig serum. She decided bring the total amount she had taken up to the same amount.
Well, maybe I could be just a tad bit even bigger, she thought as she added a few more drops to her glass.
Jess watched her drink the contents of the glass with excitement. "That's the spirit. You'll feel great in just a few minutes. Trust me, I feel wonderful. Like the king of the world. Now let's eat. I am starving." Jess' long tongue stretched out of her mouth, and ran along her lips.
Do pigs have long thin tongues like that? thought Mary.
Mary's stomach growled loudly, and her hunger occupied her thoughts. Maybe she would be able to think more clearly with a full stomach. Something seemed wrong here, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. Mary continued to bring the rest of the groceries through the door, as Jess devoured them noisily behind her.
