The next day, Steve walked home from school. He was in his usual mood of anger at the world. And of course he had to walk by the football field while the team was practicing! Well, at least he could insult them.
But before he could, he suddenly heard the coach say, “Tonight’s game is gonna be tough without our quarterback. Ethan’s at home, recovering from a broken leg, and one of you is gonna have to step up.”
Before Steve knew what he was doing, he jumped the fence and jogged over to where the coach was speaking to his players.
“Hey Coach! I can play for Ethan tonight,” Steve said eagerly, while internally he was screaming at himself, unable to believe what was happening.
“Well, I don’t know, Steve, you’re not even on the team...” the coach trailed off as Steve hunched over in pain. Everyone stared as he grew taller, shooting up to 6’2”. Then his muscles bulged and swelled everywhere, giving him thick arms, large pecs, 8 washboard abs, and legs like pillars. His long black hair retracted into his head until it was short and styled in a mild fade. His eyes became a luminous green and his face reshaped into that of a hunky senior. His skin tanned and as the new Steven stood to his full height, he flashed a killer smile.
“What about now, Coach?” Steven the hunk asked in a deep, husky voice.
The coach thought about it, then said, “Well I guess we can bring you on for tonight. Boys grab him a jersey. We have a game to win.”
