Once you’d finished your work for the night, you called Will.
“Hey, dude, how did practice go?” you asked.
“Man, it was great! Thanks to you I jumped several weight classes and I’m one of the strongest guys on the team. I see a winning record in my future!” Will said happily.
“That’s great! Listen, I want to ask you for a favor. You know my neighbor Josh, the library nerd? Well, I have a plan to get back at Craig the bully for picking on him.”
“Cool! How can I help?”
The next day, you hid in the library, right where you’d told Josh you’d be. What he didn’t know, nor did Craig, who was maliciously eyeing him from across the room, was that Will was hiding near Craig.
When the librarian left, Craig started to move in Josh’s direction, but Will jumped out and grabbed him, quickly putting him in a headlock.
“Gahhh…Willy? Little wimpy Willy? What happened to you?” Craig gasped.
“It’s Will now,” your friend said, “and that’s not your concern. I want you to swear to me that from now on, you’ll leave Josh alone. In fact, you’ll leave all of the kids you pick on alone. Otherwise, you’ll deal with me. Got it?”
“Yeah, ok,” Craig choked out. But just as you’d predicted, as soon as Will released him, he started moving towards Josh, who had watched the encounter with wide eyes.
Will grabbed him again. “Wrong choice,” he growled. “Now we’re going to make sure you can’t hurt Josh ever again.”
“We?” Craig yelled, confused.
“We,” you said, stepping out from your hiding place.
“Blake? You wimp, what are you gonna do?” he sneered.
“How about this?” you said. You pointed the wand at Josh, and imagined him as a brown-haired hunk standing 6’4” (3 inches taller than Craig), and being a muscle-bound 250 pounds. You flicked the wand and pressed the button.
Instantly, Josh was engulfed in blue light as he grew to match your mental image. His clothes exploded, leaving him in shreds of a shirt and pants, and with straining boxers and no glasses.
“Wow,” Josh said, flexing a melon-sized arm in awe. “Is this real?”
“Yep. From now on you are dominant over Craig. He’ll never dare to lay a finger on you again. And Craig, next time you try to bully someone, remember this. I might make them more like the new Josh, or I might make you more like the old Josh,” you hinted.
Will released Craig and asked, “Something you want to say to Josh?”
“Sorry,” Craig mumbled.
Josh grinned. “That’s ok. I’ll never have to take your shit again, you dickless jackass.”
“You…” Craig instinctively raised a fist, but Josh grabbed it and pinned his arms behind his back.
“Like Blake said, remember this. He, Will and I will always be watching.”
After Craig flew out of the library, Josh turned to you and Will, who with his growth was still smaller than Josh at 6’0 and 190 pounds.
Josh said, “Thanks guys. This feels amazing,” flexing his huge pecs and feeling his abs.
“No problem,” you said.
“There’s just one thing,” Josh said with a sheepish smile. “Any chance that thing could conjure up some new clothes for me?
