Not being exactly sure what had happened, Derrick, partly out of fear and mostly out of frustration said the only thing that came to mind.
" I don’t know what just happened, but your still a little freak you loser. "
Setting the ball down onto the court and resting his foot on it he answered the challenge" Is that so!"
" Yeah, that’s so!"
Inside his head he heard Ty’s voice " I’ve given you the power to make yourself grow as much as you want. Why don’t you show this idiot what little people can do"
Jason grinned and began go grow.
" I’m a loser am I? And FREAK!" he bellowed that last word for effect and increased the speed of his growth just a hair. He pressed his foot to the ground and the Basketball exploded with a noise like a shotgun.
Having wasted a number of Saturday mornings watching really bad Monster movies with Ty, Jason used every cliché he could think of as he grew himself out. He began to breathe heavily and with every breath he expanded his chest outward. He twitched and shook and every time he added another classic movie moment he made himself grow that much faster.
In one fluid motion he brought both arms forward and crossed them against his barrel chest, the threw them back and his chest exploded out from his shirt , sending buttons flying everywhere. He then decided to grow himself unevenly for even greater effect. Bits and pieces of him swelled, stretched, popped and grew as he began to tower over Derrick. His shoes ruptured. The shorts he had been wearing had torn up the waist and barely managed to contain the rest of him.
He came to a stop at the ripe size of 10 feet.
Derrick stood frozen in his tracks as the 10 foot tall Jason reached down with his hand and took him by the shirt, raising him to his own eye level.
Jason’s voice was deep and superhuman sounding as he smiled. " you were saying something about my being a little, freaky loser, weren’t you?"
