Mary looked around the closet, hoping to find another exit from the room. But the room was surrounded by three concrete walls with no windows. There was only one way out, and it was currently guarded by a large and very hungry dragon.
Mary felt a tingle, and looked down to her hoof. She was surprised to see a very small ant crawling across her foot. It was so small she almost didn't see it, and if she hadn't felt it tickling her foot she probably wouldn't have even known it was there. Suddenly, Mary got a very bright idea.
Okay, Jess. You may have the market on big, but I can still go small. So small you won't even see me, and I can just walk right by you, thought Mary.
She uncorked the "Ant" vial and was about to drink when she had another thought.
Wait, if I get too small I won't be able to get back to normal, she thought. Mary found a small dish, and filled it with the contents of the "Human" vial. She found a second dish, and filled it with the contents of the "Growth" vial.
Just in case, she thought. Mary decided that she would just sneak by Jess in the hallway, then double back and return to the closet after Jess left. Then she could drink some of the "Human" and "Growth" vials to return to a normal sized human.
The door suddenly shook as Jess rammed against it. Mary almost dropped the "Ant" vial in her clumsy front hooves. Jess peered through the cracks in the door, her yellow slit-like reptilian eye glaring at Mary.
Mary decided it was now or never, and downed the entire "Ant" vial.
