Re: The Fountain of Growth
Right now! It's a little on the short side, but here's the next chapter finally. Be prepared for new characters (and giantesses) in the next chapter.
Chapter 11: The Secret is Out As Kiseki and Chikara walked back to town to get more water to match their friend’s size, they quickly ran to the corner with the fountain water and started filled up their water bottle again. “Oh…if only there was a way to make things smaller automatically”, grieved Chikara as she poured water into the bottle that Maki previously held into it. “Like a reverse drink or something…” “I sure hope so”, agreed Kiseki, noticing a size different between her and her fellow giantess friend. “Hmm? Hey, what’s going on!? Everything’s growing bigger…” “It must’ve been long enough for you to return to normal size! Maki was right!” a relived Chikara cheered. “That’s because we shrank you back to normal”, a voice said from behind a trash can. The normal sized Kiseki then lifted it up and saw two little figures before her. The two looked like little kids, no older than 5 or 6. One, a male, was dressed in a light blue shirt and jeans, and his shoes were plain white. His hair was messy and black, and his eyes were green. He was also very skinny, and also looked a little annoyed as well. The other was a female, who wore a pink dress that went down to her knees. Her eyes were light blue, her hair long and pink, and she wore pink casual shoes as well. She was also fairly skinny, and she looked a little happy in comparison to her not-so-happy counterpart. “Hmm? What are two little children doing here?” Kiseki asked as she picked up the girl in her arms, looking at her with a quicky glance. “Are you two kids lost?” “We’re not kids. We’re demi-gods!” the boy yelled at the girl. “And we’re several thousands of years older than you, thank you very much!” “Yep. We just choose these forms to hide our appearances. Plus, I think it’s cute”, the girl added, hugging Kiseki in her arms. “So you must be the lucky girl who found the fountain of water?” “Um….yes…it seems so..” “Excuse me, Mr. and Ms. Demi-God, but where did you come from? And what are your names?” Chikara asked of the two little “kids” below her. It was the female half of the duo who decided to speak up, placing her feet back on the ground below. “I’m Pura, and that grumpy boy over there is my big brother, Resta!” she explained to the confused girls. “We’re here to take back the last source of growing water on Earth”, Resta told the girls, also shrinking Chikara back to normal size. “Usually at this time we’d seal off the water and shrink whoever used it down to a fraction of the size they used to be…” “But since you three girls used the fountain not for power or destruction, we’re going to be more lenient to you”, Pura further explained. “Now…there was a third girl with you too, wasn’t there?” “Yeah. Maki Kurosaki”, Kiseki told the little demi-god. “She’s currently outside of the town’s baseball stadium crying to herself in frustration.” “Well, we better get to her too. Come on, you two!” Resta demanded as he began to run to the stadium. “Hurry up!” “Okay! Okay!” Kiseki mumbled. “Yeesh!” “Um….brother, aren’t we forgetting something?” Pura asked of him. “Like sealing off the water?” “You stay here and do that, Pura. You can do that by yourself, right? We've done it hundreds of times!” “But…I’ve never done it without your help before…”she explained to him, looking a little teary-eyed. “Pleeeeeeease, Resta.” Resta decided to stop running at that instant and hand the girls another item for them to carry with them to cure their friend’s size: a cookie. A regular, everyday, average-looking cookie. “A cookie?!” Chikara remarked, confused greatly by it. “Well, it’s not any regular cookie, obviously”, Resta sighed. “This is a cookie that will shrink whoever should shrink it back to normal size. Well, usually.” “What do you mean ‘usually’?” Kiseki asked. “It works 99.9% of the time. Because not everything works 100% of the time”, Resta explained with a slight giggle to his reply, the first time he smiled since he met Kiseki and Chikara. “Well…okay. I’ll trust you, Resta”, Kiseki giggled in response as she placed the cookie in her left pocket, then hugging the boy. “Thank you so much.” “Yeah, whatever. Now go help your friend before I change my mind”, he grumbled. Kiseki then stopped hugging the lad, and she and Chikara ran off to cure their tall friend’s size. Unfortunately for them, they weren’t aware that they were far from the only ones who had encountered the fountain of water. And they would learn of thi sooner than they thought.
