Muscle Potion
Ten year-old Roy just stared at the strange bottles in the small, plastic box. He decided to pick the bottle containing the orange-colored liquid, just because he liked the bright color. He held the small bottle in front of him, so he could read the label, and the odd text that was printed on it in a very fancy type font.
“Muscle Potion” it read. “If you drink this, you will gain superhuman strength and muscle”.
“No way!” Roy said to himself. “This has got to be a joke!”
Roy shook the bottle a few times, and examined how the funny liquid just splashed around inside of the bottle. It looked like Gatorade. Then he unscrewed the metal cap, and placed the top of the bottle at his nose.
“Hmm… It smells just like lemonade…”
He decided to go for it. He placed the bottle at his lips and he tilted his head backwards, just enough, to take a little taste of it.
“Ahhh… Not bad…” he said, as he tasted the liquid first, before he swallowed it. “It even tastes like Gatorade…”
He was thirsty, but he wanted something cold. So he walked over to the kitchen, and grabbed a glass out of the cupboard. He got a few ice cubes out of the icemaker, and filled the glass with ice. Then, he poured the rest of the bottle’s contents into his glass.
“This will taste much better when it’s cold!” he smiled, as he placed the glass against his lips.
He quickly drank all of it, in one mighty gulp, leaving only the ice cubes behind in the glass.
When he set the glass down, he looked at the bottle. It was filled up again, with orange liquid!
“Huh? That’s weird! I thought I just drank it all!” he wondered out loud.
That’s when he remembered the instructions on the note. He suddenly became nervous. Was this some kind of trick? Was this stuff for real? Was it really… magic?
Then it happened!
Roy felt a deep, rumbling noise come from inside of him.
“Uuhhh… What… What’s happening?” he gasped.
His entire body suddenly stiffened up, especially his muscles! He couldn’t move!
“Oh no! Something’s happening to me!”
Then, in a matter of seconds, his legs almost doubled in width and in girth. Layers upon layers of muscle formed on his quads, as they grew thicker and wider. His hamstrings expanded in amazing ways! His calves ballooned in the back of his legs, with veins covering them all over. His jeans were about to give out! His calves tore holes in his jeans, and the jeans tore at the seams, where his quads were. His muscles had grown so big!
“Uuuuhhhhhwwwhaaaaa!!!” he shouted.
His arms grew thicker and thicker. Huge biceps and triceps emerged as every part of him inflated. His biceps turned into bowling balls of rock-solid muscles, coursing with power. His chest pushed outward and sideways, tightening around his shirt. In fact, his poor t-shirt began to rip at the sleeves and around the collar. He was bursting out of his shirt all over!
“Ooooooooohhhhhhh!!!”
Mighty 8-pack abdominals formed over the flat stomach as his torso widened. He practically grew double in width in five seconds! The strength was unbelievable! Roy couldn’t help but make fists and flex every muscle in his huge body! He didn’t grow any taller. He was still about 5 feet tall, but he was much wider than before!
Finally the growth stopped.
The titanic muscle boy just stood there, panting and sweating in the kitchen.
“Oh… Ohmygosh… I-I… Uhh…” he gasped.
He carefully walked over to the living room, hearing the wooden floor creak beneath his feet. As he looked down, he admired his incredibly muscular body. His chest, his legs, his arms… He looked amazing!
He stood before the mirror. He pulled his ripped jeans and shirt off. Then, something happened. His jeans, and shirt, changed. They grew! They resized to fit him, while he was holding them in his hand. It was as if reality had changed, and he had always been so muscular!
Roy then walked into his room and opened his closet door. All his clothes seemed… bigger!
Suddenly, his bedroom door opened. His mother walked in!
“Hi there, Roy!” she said.
“Hi… mom…” he said. What would she think of him, the way he looked now, with all these muscles?
“Are you going to the gym today?”
“Y-yeah…”
“Okay, see you later, champ!” mom said. “Give me a kiss”
Mom walked over and Roy kissed her on her cheek.
“My muscle man…”
She then turned around and left.
“Wow…” he smiled. Life was good. It was great being a muscle kid…
