This time Sean thought he would try something different. He would program in a change for Frank but he'd plan for the transformation to take effect when Frank was on his own. Frank was a muscley 6'3. Sean wondered how he'd like to spend some time as a shrimp. Every evening Frank went for a run around town. Sean programmed in a gradual change that would come into effect during this run, the further Frank ran the shorter and wimpier he would get.
Frank stripped and changed into his running shoes, shorts and tee. He was in great shape. Tonight as he ran he noticed something new, something different. He seemed to feel lighter, thinner somhow.
-Man, I'm getting thin he thought looking down at his flapping tee
On and on he ran, he couldn't believe how effortless his running seemed. He hardly noticed that he had to keep stopping to pull up his socks, tighten his laces and pull tight the drawstring on his shorts. This part of town was empty but he was soon in a busier downtown zone. Oddly, tonight the only guys he saw were tall ones. In fact, everyone was taller than him. This was weird. He slowed down and caught a glimpse of himself in a shop window. In place of the well built, handsome, ultramasculine man he was used to seeing a small, lightly built, geeky looking, pencil necked little guy stared back at him. Frank looked down and saw that his clothes were hanging off him and his shoes looked massive and clownish on the end of thinnish legs with undeveloped calves and a lightish dusting of hair.
Frank walked on. Coming towards him was a guy he knew. He was average sized and Frank would normally tower over him. The closer he came the smaller and smaller Frank saw that he was. When they met Frank found that he was staring directly into his chest. The guy looked down, hesitated and almost recognised him, then he shook his head and walked on.
Frank realised he'd shrunk one foot!
