Ty popped up in the middle of the large shopping mall wearing his new clothes and shoes, but he still wanted to get some more clothing for himself. He had never owned new clothes before, so he wanted to go out and spoil himself a little, since this was the very first time.
He walked into a few clothing stores and purchased more clothes for himself. When he was finally done and about to leave, he decided to stop at the food court, near the center of the mall, to get something to eat, when he was greeted by an old classmate.
“Ty? Tyler? Is that you? Your parents actually let you out of the house?”
Ty looked up and saw Jason, his pal from school. Jason had always been his buddy at school, and he had always cared deeply about Ty’s wellbeing. But Jason was never allowed to come over to Ty’s house because of his strict stepparents.
Ty and Jason walked over to one of the tables in the food court where they sat down. Of course, Ty had altered reality, so Jason didn’t care about Ty’s improved looks and his new height. Jason was only 5-foot-6 so Ty was much taller than him now.
“Well, I convinced my stepparents to let me out for my birthday. I guess I was lucky!” Ty just shrugged.
“Good for you, big guy! Happy Birthday! Here, let me get you some ice cream so we can celebrate your special day!” Jason smiled as he let Ty take a seat at the table. Jason walked over to the ice cream stand and bought some ice cream for the two of them. Minutes later, he returned with two cups and spoons.
While Jason was walking towards the table, Ty silently wished for him to grow a foot taller with some added muscle as well. As Jason was walking towards Ty’s table, his legs grew by a whole foot. In addition, Jason’s muscles bulged everywhere, making him look like a tall runner. Luckily, he was wearing shorts, since it was summertime. Suddenly, Jason was 6-foot-6 inches tall and standing an inch taller than Ty.
“Yum! This is delicious, dude!” Ty grinned as he ate his cold treat. “Hey, how about you come over to my place? You can check out my new PlayStation!”
“Uhh… Are your parents gonna let me in the house?” Jason sighed, feeling a bit concerned. “And what about that annoying brother of yours? Is Dustin going to bother us again?”
“If Dustin bothers us, then we’ll just grab him by the arms and legs, and we’ll throw him into the pool!” Ty laughed.
“The POOL? You guys got a swimming pool now?” Jason wondered out loud.
“No, but we will have one by the time we get home!” Ty chuckled.
When they were done eating, Ty and Jason were instantly teleported to Ty’s bedroom!
“HEY! How did we get here so fast?” Jason gasped.
“Come on! Let’s enjoy ourselves!” Ty smiled as he started up the PlayStation console in his bedroom. Ty and Jason each took a game controller and started playing a round of Fortnite when the door swung open and Dustin came barging in.
“HEY! TY! Who gave you permission to have a friend over?” Dustin shouted angrily. “Does dad know that Jason’s here?”
“I don’t need dad’s permission!” Ty said sternly with his arms folded.
“WHAT?” Dustin screamed.
Ty stood up, and Jason got up, standing next to him.
Dustin is 6 feet even.
Ty is 6-foot 5. Jason is 6-foot-6.
Dustin gulped when he was suddenly facing two bigger, taller boys, who were standing before him.
“Grab his arms, Jason” Ty ordered.
Jason grabbed hold of Dustin’s wrists while Ty reached down and grabbed hold of Dustin’s ankles. Both tall boys lifted Dustin up and carried him out of the bedroom and out to the back patio.
“HEY? WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING? PUT ME DOWN! I SAID PUT ME DOWN! DO IT NOW! WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME? WHAT’S GOING ON?” Dustin shouted as Ty and Jason carried him out to the backyard.
One they reached the large backyard, Ty made a silent wish, and a nice, small backyard pool magically appeared, surrounded by a wooden deck, with a few lounge chairs and even a diving board near the deep end.
“Toss him in the pool! One… Two… THREE!” Ty shouted as him and Jason tossed Dustin high into the deep and of the swimming pool, which Ty had just conjured up.
“NOOO! WHERE DID THE POOL COME FR--?”
Plunge!
“Let’s continue our video game, shall we?” Ty suggested.
Meanwhile, Dustin could only swim to the shallow end of the pool, while wearing all his clothes, and look on in complete amazement. How did he get into the pool? Where did the pool come from? How did Jason get so tall? Poor Dustin was SO confused….
