You black out and pass out after you fall to the concrete floor with a large, six-foot tall bookcase crashing down on you which was filled with books, papers, and plastic containers filled with all kinds of liquids and potions. Your girlfriend, Rebecca, let out a loud shriek since you had pushed her out of the way, however, you caught the weight and brunt of the bookcase as it came down on your chest and knocked you over.
When you come to, you’re soaking wet and you detect a weird odor all over you. You figure it must be from all the weird chemicals. Rebecca is leaning over you as well as her father. Both of them are very worried, since you groggily look up and make out their faces.
“Eric? ERIC! Wake up! Oooh Eric!” Rebecca screams at you.
“Help me get the bookcase off!” Her father says to her.
He steps aside and grabs the side of bookcase and starts to lift it off of you while Rebecca lifts it on the other side.
They manage to lift it up a few inches but they only manage long enough for you to begin to feel the first effects of the all the potions which have fallen all over you and have absorbed into your skin.
“Urrghhhh!” you groan, as every one of your muscles begin to burn like crazy like you just had an intense workout in the gym.
Then it happened! Your pectorals begin to swell up, hardening and growing bigger and bigger, stretching the fabric of your shirt to the max. Your shirt sleeves hit the tearing point as well as your biceps increase in size, becoming as big as melons! Your flat stomach now sports the biggest washboard six-pack abdominal muscles ever, and your quads inflate to the size, the thickness and depth of tree trunks while covered with long veins. Your calves balloon to the size of soccer balls as you explode into a large muscle man!
The explosion of muscle leads to a surge in strength, making you suddenly realize that you are physically capable of lifting the bookcase off of you all by yourself!
You extend your thick, muscular arms and push the big, heavy bookcase away from you while you slowly get up on your thick legs. Rebecca and her father gawk at your new form and let go of the bookcase as they realize what had happened to you and they back off. You continue to push the bookcase higher until it is standing back in its original place, and you easily do it all by yourself just using raw muscle and brute strength!
“Holy shit!” you gasp, panting heavily as you let go of the bookcase and flex both arms, causing huge balls of muscle to rise up on your arms in victory. “I’m a total Hulk!”
“Daddy! What… What happened to Eric?” Rebecca screams at her father.
“His body has absorbed all kinds of muscle growth formulae…” her father says calmly. “And these are some of the effects…”
You turn and slowly walk up to her, your shirt falls off your body in shreds. Your jeans are torn from your thighs all the way down and you feel like you have gained over fifty pounds of rock-hard muscle in just a few seconds! You haven’t gained anything in height, for you’re still 5 ft 6 inches tall but you feel strong as an ox!
“Uhmm… Are there any effects to this?” you ask Rebecca’s father.
He nods his head.
“Yes… Some effects are known and others remain yet to be discovered…”
You gulp at that response.
