Mike smiled, "That'ssss right, now what sssshould I do now?"
He looks up from the lake and draws a deep breath, feeling the power of his new body. As Mike exhaled, he starts to cough and gag from a strange dryness in his throat.
"It'ssss probably jusssst from this change I had", he thought and crouches down to fill his lizard mouth with the lake water. Thinking nothing more of it, Mike drinks a couple mouthful this way before some of the water leaks into his nose, forcing him to cough and gag while he still was filling his mouth. While coughing the last bit of water out of his nose, he doesn't realize how much water he just let run down his throat before I stood back up. He shakes his head around to dry up his wet lizard muzzle and felt a shiver run through his whole body.
"What now?!?", he growls aloud as pain erupted all over his body, darkening his vision.
Even though Mike can't see or feel anything but the pain in his body, he realizes that the water is doing something to him again. His claws sharpened and grew longer and thicker as his body convulses, forcing him to kneel over. His humanoid lizard head cracks and reshapes into full Komodo Dragon head. His tails elongates until it is as along as Mike was tall. His legs lengthens and reshapes with his feet into a digigrade stance, forcing him to stand on the balls of his feet while his toes fuse into 3 toes with thick curved claws at the end of each one. His arms follows suit, growing to the same length as his legs. Mike's skin dries up and becomes thicker, resembling the skin of a lizard. Then his bones thicken and harden, making them nearly impossible to break. Finally the pain subsides but a tingling feeling resides in all of his muscles.
Mike groans, shaking his head slowly and tries to stand up but finds out that his now much denser bones are far heavier than that his newly added muscles could lift. He strains to stand up and to move every part of his body, forgetting the tingling feeling in his muscles.
He strains and groans frustrated, trying to move his massively heavy body with his already impressive 500 pounds of muscles but his body won't budge an inch. As he struggles and strains, unbeknown to him, his muscles are growing denser, thicker and more powerful than he could imagine. Even though his muscles are growing stronger, he still couldn't move his body for an inch in 5 minutes. in that time his muscle mass has doubled in weight and his muscles are twice as thick as before, stretching his skin and showing every finest detail of them including big bulging vines. As his muscles grow thicker, his body starts to expand in proportion with his muscle mass. As the minutes slowly goes by, Mike manages to force his body slowly to move, gaining mass and size as he does so.
Finally after 15 more minutes, Mike manages to stand up to his full height and roars out loudly, "RRRRRAAAAAAAARRRR!" He opens his shining yellow slitted eyes, that he clenched shut from the effort to stand up, in triumph and gave his whole body a look through. He has grown 3 feet taller, standing at 10'2" with a god like musculature, showing every detail of his body. His weight has quadruped and he's making deep footprints in the ground just by standing there.
Mike smiled and flexes his powerful muscles, "Thissss feelssss good."
