Chris looked around his living room; trying to find something to give him an idea on what his second wish should be. He then noticed the Tarzan book he borrowed from the library on the table. Chris had always been fascinated by the concept of the ape man. The qualities ape men possess appealed to him. He often dreamt what it would be like to be an ape man. Now, he can find out.
Deciding on his next wish, Chris turned back to Eden and said.
“Eden, I wish I am an ape man. I have the muscle mass of a super-heavy weight bodybuilder with little body fat. I grow no body or facial hair. I’m above 6 feet tall. I wear only a lion cloth and speak in the third person. My house is a treehouse in the jungle. I’m the strongest being in the jungle. I can lift an elephant over my head with one hand. The animals see me as their king. They will do whatever I say.”
“Very well, Master” Eden said as she clapped her hands.
Instantly, Chris’s muscles started to grow and become stronger. His strength skyrocketed as well. Soon, his shirt and pants were ripping apart. Then, they disappeared. In their place was a simple loin cloth with a single, thin piece of leather coming out from the top. The strip went over his left pec and shoulder. It attached to the back part of his loin cloth, keeping the whole piece on him. His body and facial hair disappeared. Lastly, his hair became longer and wilder.
Not only did he changed physical, but inside as well. He felt wilder, more animalistic. It was like the animal side of his nature was now the dominated side. He felt he belonged in the jungle.
His house turned into a treehouse. A large tree was in the center of the house, supporting its weight above the ground.
Within minutes, Chris’s wish had been fulfilled.
Chris smiled. He got everything he wanted. Turning to his genie, he said, “Thank you, Eden. Chris always wanted to be an ape man. Now, Chris is an ape man!” He spoke in his new ape man speech pattern.
“You’re welcome, Master,” Eden thanked him. “What is your next wish?” she asked.
“Uh…, Chris doesn’t really want to wish for anything right now. So, can Chris wait until later to make
more wishes?”
“Sure, Master,” Eden told him. “I will return to my lamp until you are ready.” Eden turned back into a puff of smoke and returned to her lamp.
Chris grabbed the lamp and put it in a wooden desk. Turning around Chris noticed a mirror nearby. Walking to it he was stun. The person looking back was completely alien to him. It took Chris a minute to realize the person looking at him was himself.
The only clothes he had on was an old, leather loin cloth. He had no body or facial hair. Also, there was hardly any fat on him. Instead, he now possessed huge muscles that were perfectly sculpture, and had perfect definition. His hair was wild, long and silky smooth. He was now 6’ 4’’. He looked like a huge super-heavy weight bodybuilder who worked out all day long.
He also knew his transformation was not only physical. He couldn’t put it into words but, he felt better than ever.
Chris flexed his arms and watched in awe as biceps grew. They were at least 27 inches tall.
“Chris finally has biceps! Chris finally has muscles!” He exclaimed happily.
Chris wanted to test his new vine swinging capabilities. Running outside to the deck Chris saw the most beautiful landscape he had ever seen. A lush jungle surrounded his treehouse in very direction. The trees were tall and covered in leaves. Sunlight beamed through the open spaces between the trees, creating a beautiful effect.
The happiness Chris felt soon reached fever pitch. “This is Chris’s jungle kingdom! Chris is king of jungle!”
He then started beating his chest and yelling as loud as he could. Throughout the jungle his yell was heard. Every animal heard the yell, and roared, yell, swauck, etc. in response. The jungle was filled with noise. Chris heard the sounds and beat his chest again in happiness.
Chris grabbed a nearby vine. He yelled again and swung. He swung in a perfect pendulum motion and grabbed the next vine at the tip of the swing. He continued this motion with easy. Man! This is so easy, he said in his head. This is the best day of Chris’s life! He knew he would have a great time as an ape man.
