Hey, I think this is a great story! Love the descriptions of her strength and the way she and Jack play. Great stuff!

Thanks for the reviews I am glad to see that people are enjoying the story and continue to enjoy it if the number of views is an indication. I am sorry for the delay in responding but I had planned on putting up another chapter before I responded. I just decided to respond early since it is taking me longer then expected to finish the third chapter.

i didn’t mean any offense, it was just a bit of a turn off (NO not like that).

i’ve been reading through it anyway, and it don’t seem too bad.

N/p no offense taken I realize that some people are more sencative about grammer then others. Though I do think this causes such people to miss out on enjoying many good stories.

Wow! Very nice! This is a very long, detailed story, with a good sense of realism despite the surreal nature of the situation. I’m sensing (and hoping) that in the next chapter, there will be lots more action. I’m also sensing that Kate is in danger of being corrupted by her powers. But even if that happens, I’m sure her good character will prevail.

Please continue with it!

You will probably be write on both accounts provided I don’t find a good reason to change some of the plot. I am glad to see that someone is enjoying the story though it may take a while before I put up another chapter. After all I am working on a giantess story as well at the moment.

Thanks for taking the time to review the story and list some of the things you liked. If there is anything you dislike about the storyline would you please mention that as well. I am always looking for constructive criticism. Though no comments about grammer if you don’t mind 🙂 while I enjoy writing I hate proof reading and since I am not doing his professionally. I feel as long as the majority find it legible that little percent that doesn’t can go do something else.

“ Oh yeah go cheap on me get a tiny one just like what you short people read.” Kate stuck her massive tongue out at Amy who responded like wise. The thought was rather amusing to either of them though as they took the time to consider the amount of paper that would have to go into suck a task as well as the odds of it actually being able to hold together. Kate was sure that paper wouldn’t really be up to the challenge of holding itself together in such a situation.

Amy as before had plenty left over after eating her fill witch Kate finished off easy enough. Returning to Kate’s room Amy set on Kate’s massive thigh as she searched through the computer trying to find a game they both enjoyed. The two of them finally settled on a game of monopoly since there wasn’t any real way for them to cheat by seeing what the other had. Amy did prove to have a edge over Kate when it came to the game though since Kate had little experience with taking risk with money. She had only played such games in all truth since her needs were all provided for. Amy quickly picked up on this as she found Kate really had trouble with her spending habits. She didn’t bother saying anything though as Kate still seemed to enjoy herself even though she ended up losing out more quickly then most people would have.

Amy found that Kate did have a strong point when it came to bored games though upon the next one. The two having decided to play a game of chess Amy found herself actually beaten in three moves Kate having managed to set her up for a quick defeat had a rather large grin upon her face. “ Well I may not know money but I know war games.” “ I think we should stick with games that I can beat you at.” Amy found herself rolling over as Kate lightly blew on her Amy just chuckled as she set back up. “ So what is next?” “ How about a game of life then bed?” Nodding in agreement the finale game would be mostly left up to chance and some planning.

Amy ended up coming out ahead much to Kate’s dismay she had almost given in to the desire to suggest another game. Truth be told the massive girl wasn’t the best loser in the world she just held her comments in. She kept herself from challenging Amy to another game though as she deposited her friend on the walk way. The two said good night as Kate found her pillow laying her head on it for a second as she looked up towards the roof. Kate didn’t go to sleep as quickly as Amy did this night as she took the time to recall past visitations. Everyone reacted when shock the first time they ever saw Kate they would later settle down and seem to accept what was going on around them. Kate knew this wasn’t the truth as she looked towards the walk way and Amy door’s.

It took a little while for truly shocking events to completely sink in is what Kate had learned while dealing with regular people so she knew that before long Amy would react to everything that she had seen and done. What was worse is that Kate had a very sick feeling in her stomach that it wouldn’t be a calm reaction and that it would be coming up very soon. Really Kate had been expecting it on the second day the fact that it hadn’t happened yet actually worried her. She hoped that after getting to know Amy that the girl wouldn’t react too poorly or perhaps wouldn’t react at all when everything sank in. There had been a few cases that the person couldn’t actually be brought back after they had went into their fit. They had to be sedated more then once to get them to calm down and after examination it had been decided that it would be safest if they were just allowed to forget everything.

Kate didn’t want this to happen to Amy especially after talking to her for so long. Melvin entered Kate’s room before Amy had awoke the next morning. Having been the one to ride with her on her journey to the installation they felt he would be the best choice to talk to Amy if what they were predicting did happen. Kate looked up from her relaxed position and let out a sigh as she noticed the shots inside of his pocket. She figured he had the usual three injections two to calm someone down if need be and another to simply put them to sleep if that didn’t work. “ Think she is going to act up today?” Melvin gave a slight nod as he stopped near the door and leaned over looking towards Kate’s face. “ I think it will be today if it is going to happen. She had went longer then most people though this actually has me worried. She might have already accepted what she is seeing isn’t fake and was able to handle it or it might be a very delayed reaction.”

The sound of foot steps ended the conversation as a half asleep Amy walked out of her room and got a good look at Kate. Kate didn’t say anything as she noticed Amy’s face lock up and her breathing rate increase. She knew that everything was sinking in that the full wait of her situation and fully sunk in and now Amy was just trying to cope. Amy for her part was fighting off waves of dizziness as she fully comprehended that she was looking at someone that by her original ideas of reality shouldn’t be able to even exist. Someone who was powerful enough to be considered a weapon worth keeping despite the huge cost of meeting all her needs. In the presence of such a person it was all she could do to remember that Kate was also a human and her friend.

Amy felt something wrap around her back as her knees went weak. Melvin having moved next to her now supported her. A look of shock in his eyes as he had actually expected her to pass out or to scream and run. Her hands instinctively gripped his jacket as if for comfort though she couldn’t help but wonder why he had such a large grin on his face. “ Come on lets get you some water.” Pulling Amy back into her room he stopped to mouth “amazing” to Kate before he vanished through the door with Amy. Amy set on her bed while Melvin got her a glass of water her hands shaking as she fought back her fear. “ You are doing very well you know most people don’t react nearly as well as you are.” Came from Melvin as he handed her glass having only filled it half way considering the amount her hands were shaking.

Amy could only sip as she struggled with her own instincts. “ I guess you are wondering why you are so frightened. This is actually often a problem when a new person first meets Kate and spends any amount of time with her. The brain seems to go into a state of shock and doesn’t fully comprehend what is going on. Only when everything has had time to settle does the person begin to react. To be honest though this normally requires sedation so I am very impressed that you haven’t ran off screaming.” Melvin gave her a friendly smile now as Amy sipped her water. Setting the glass down before it was finished she struggled to stand on wobbly legs as she walked towards the door and back into the main area with Kate.

Kate was surprised to see Amy come back on the walk way so soon, she was even more shocked when the girl seemed to single that she wanted picked up. Lifting Amy into the air and setting her within her open palm Amy took the time to feel of Kate’s fingers making sure that what she was seeing was real. “ Sorry about this it is all just a bit much to accept I guess.” Kate was so in shock by her friend that she didn’t notice Melvin slip out heading towards Sheila’s office. He needed to feel out a report on Amy giving his full support for making her a regular visitor.

Kate for her part only grinned as Amy seemed intent on exploring her hand to its fullest. Amy for her part was trying to take in every detail of this massive girl that now held her within one hand. Wanting to make sure what she was seeing was real for the last time. She didn’t want to have to fight of another wave of fear and when she left she didn’t want to worry about thinking it was such a very strange dream. Kate laid her arm down as Amy began to drift from her hand onto her wrest and make her way up her arm. Being careful not to move Kate kept an eye on Amy she had seen behavior like this before a sort of amazed curiosity that compelled someone to explore. Amy finally caught hold of what she was doing when she reached Amy’s face “ Oh do you mind if I look around? I guess I really should have asked before.” Kate grinned and shook her head “ Yeah but that is fine this time go ahead and look around there is a lot of me to get use to.”

Amy finally ended up setting on the ankle of Kate’s crossed leg just looking around. She had managed to get use to her situation to some extent and most of her fear and shock had faded. She had finally relaxed enough to start a true conversation with Kate once again. “ I guess that this is what they were talking about on the trip over hear.” “ Yup most people react a lot more strongly then you some even have to be restrained and sedated in order to get them to be reasonable again.” Laying down on the massive surface Amy closed her eyes “ Well it is a bit much to take in you know. Though I thought I had adapted when I first got hear.” Amy was shaken a bit as Kate let out a slight laugh “Very few people simply adapt when they first see me”.

During the conversation Kate had to be careful to keep Amy below her breast since the attention her body has received did cause it to react. Kate had encountered this problem before when someone she liked ended up wondering around her body. She liked the attention especially since it was rare she got such up close attention. The soldiers did admire her from afar and at times up close of course but that wasn’t the same. They tended to look upon the situation as seeing a picture or a movie as she had realized from their conversations. She would hear them mention has attractive she was and if she was only normal sized. It was the last part that ruined things for her as she was quite sure that was never going to happen. So she couldn’t help but react when ever her body was admired for what it was.

Amy ended up spending the day on Kate just talking and relaxing in general. Sheila even had their meals brought to them as the girls got to know each other better. Their conversations having previously been mostly based on doing things. Now they took the time to just enjoy each others company Amy actually falling asleep on Kate’s massive stomach. Jason was careful not to take the girls from their sleep as he made his way into the room. Choosing not to stay on the walk way above Kate but rather walk on ground level. He liked to see the fruits of his and the other scientist work up close. It had been around eight hours since the girls fell asleep having figured they would wake up any time soon he made his way within thirty yards of Kate and decided that would be close enough.

As he set there, he couldn’t help but admire Kate in her relaxed state. Clearly defined muscles went throughout her body though none of them could be considered bulky and even though he couldn’t see them from his position he knew her abs were clearly visible. He often thought she would be a sprinter or model had she been normal sized. Swimmer had once appeared in that list but when he considered her bust line he had to wonder if that would effect her ability to compete in the sport. He stood up to move a few more steps back as Amy began to stir which in turn brought Kate out of her half sleep state and more into reality. Kate’s giggling a few moments later actually served to confused Jason making him wonder what was so funny.

Amy for her part could feel something very warm and soft all around her. Having not opened her eyes she moved her hands along it she knew Kate’s skin felt soft however it didn’t feel this soft she noticed and she was completely surrounded so it couldn’t be her hands. Thinking were she might be and not wanting to confirm it Amy tried to pull herself from the flesh prison that now encased her. Finding that despite the skin’s texture it had a very good hold on her. Amy’s eyes opened up finding herself to be just were she feared. Kate couldn’t help but chuckle as Amy hands moved over the tiniest fraction of her breast flesh. This had happened before when someone slept on Kate she would end up cuddling them while she was wresting and her cleavage was the spot that they ended up wresting at most often.

Amy looked some what amused as she turned to Kate though she was blushing a bright red. Kate having been through the experience before was able to keep herself from doing the same at least this time. “ Alright you get me out of here.” Jason could hear what Amy was saying though he couldn’t guess just what was going on when Kate inserted her hands between her breast her under stood in a moment his eyes opening wide he truly wished that he had used the walk way now. As walls of Kate’s breast released her Amy crawled out to stand on Kate’s collar bone. The sound of someone clearing their throat got the girls attention Kate turned her said to see Jason while Amy made her way Kate’s shoulder to see who as there.

“ Good morning ladies.” Both females turned a bright red now as Jason had a rather knowing smile on his face. “ Morning Jason, Amy I would like to you to meet one of my fathers. Jason here is one of the quacks that help create the treatment that was used to give me this body.” “ Well going to pick me up?” Came from the scientist as he nodded his head slowly Kate took him between her fingers and placed him in her open palm a few seconds later. “ So what brings you here.” “ Sheila needed me to tell you that you needed to stay inside today.” A annoyed look appeared on Amy’s face as she had actually been wanting to return to the breech. “ Just why do we need to stay inside?”

“ Because you my dear have seen enough military secrets for your life time.” Amy looked shocked for a moment before responding “ What do you mean enough I have only seen one.” Jason held up to fingers a second later “ You have seen two one being Kate and the other being this installation itself. Now we are going to be testing a third and a fourth throughout the day and you don’t need to know about anything else.” Amy was shocked when she found herself arguing with someone whose rank she truly didn’t know she figured it had something to do with Kate. Having come to except her fully at least or she hoped she had and still being friends with her. Considering what she was on the massive girls shoulder at the time it seemed to boost her confidence. “ Oh come on two more won’t hurt a thing I won’t tell anyone.” Jason grinned “ Oh I know you won’t tell anyone especially about these two since your not going to see them.”

Amy let out a huff as the scientist turned to leave Kate not bothering to suppress her giggles at Amy’s attempt to annoy Jason. “ He is really good at telling people no so don’t feel bad if you weren’t able to change his mind. Besides if you wanted to see anything else you would have to talk to Sheila.” Amy walked back to Kate’s just above Kate’s throat and set down. “ So just what are they testing out there?” Kate gave Amy a scolding look for a moment “ You shouldn’t be so nosey you know I hope I don’t have to restrain you little girl so that you don’t try to sneak out.” “ Oh alright I won’t ask any more questions or try to sneak out.” Kate grinned “ That is good. Most likely they are working on one of the test jets or some new artillery, and yes that is all I am going to tell you.”

Kate took Amy between her fingers a moment later setting the girl down Kate set up. Looking around the room for a few moments she let out a long sigh. “ So what do you want to do today shorty? Kate gave Amy a surprised look at the shorty comment “ Well someone sure has gotten over their fear of giantess I didn’t expect you to feel that liberated.” Amy grinned “ Just having some fun with you Kate besides that was for the little girl comment. I am older then you after all you just happen to be taller.” Kate stretched a bit much to Amy’s surprise her hands were not able to reach the selling of the structure so long as she remained seated. “ Age doesn’t make any difference you are still little especially compared to me.”

“ Well I could put you threw an exercise routine.” The moment Amy heard these words she shuddered her body was actually still sore from the previous days activities. Hanging around with a Titaness was requiring more stamina then she thought it would. “ No thank you between the swimming hang gliding and bungee jumping I am plenty sore. “ Oh surely you are not still sore.” Amy stuck her tongue out at Kate “ I sure am considering that I didn’t really get to recover from the swimming yesterday.” “ You little things have no stamina.” Amy began to wonder around as the two conversed trying to think of something to do when Kate’s fingers took hold of her. “ It helps me to be doing something while I am thinking.”

Amy wondered what Kate had in mind as she leaned back holding Amy over her face she released her a second later. Amy didn’t bother to scream as she fell towards Kate’s mouth she had an idea what was coming. Kate excelled quickly the rush of air halting Amy’s fall and lifting her back up into the air. As Kate did this a few times Amy noticed that she was always being held about level with the walk way as this seemed to be the level that Kate could maintain the longest. Recalling were she had seen this before “ HEY You are using me for a breathing exercise.” Amy found herself in Kate’s hand a moment later as the girl broke out into a fit of giggles.

“ You are just figuring that out? Oh if you had been paying attention the bungee jumping yesterday is actually meant to help me learn to control my movements even if I have to make them very rapidly.” Amy gave Kate an odd look “ So is everything you do with normal people some form of exercise?” “ To be honest with you yeah most everything that I do with normal people is a exercise. Even the sand castle building is something that was taught partly to help me control myself and partly to help me learn how structures work. I don’t think it would be a good idea to try anything that I have done with you if I didn’t have prior experience. Especially since it would only require one little slip up.”

Amy just nodded she had figured Kate had prior experience with such things considering how good she was at them. It actually made Amy happy knowing this as Kate continued her breathing exercise. Even though it meant she was being used in the place of some peace of equipment it also meant that Kate cared for her enough not to try anything that she hadn’t done before. “ So ever lost anyone while doing this.” Amy turned white when Kate moved a finger beside her head she wasn’t sure if it meant she had lost one person or she wanted Amy to wait a minute. As Kate worried about this she found herself getting closer to Kate’s mouths as the rush of air became less focused. Kate having slowly parted her lips a bit more now allowed Amy to see down into the void of her throat.

Amy had watched Kate eat and had imagined how many people the girl could fit into her mouth now drifting so close to her lips her entire body tightened up. As the air suddenly stopped Amy couldn’t suppress a scream as she fell towards Kate’s partially parted lips. Hitting the soft texture of Kate’s lips a moment later as the girl snapped her mouth shut Amy could feel her heart trying to escape from her chest. Two fingers picked her up a moment later “ Just one person they accidently got me to giggling a bit too hard. I ended up inhaling a bit to sharply and well.” Amy who was already a pale white from the experience only looked at Kate a bit shocked for a few moments before she was being bounced around by Kate’s laughter.

“ I am kidding no I haven’t ever lost anyone while doing breathing exercises or anything else for that matter. They have been close calls of course and times that I have felt very lucky that I didn’t end up killing anyone. With over a thousand hours with each exercise though before I was allowed to work with a real person I was plenty ready when I got to play with people. Amy let out a sigh as the color began to return to her skin though she couldn’t shake the image of herself falling towards Kate’s partly opened lips. Even without her mouth open all the way Amy knew she would have simply vanished within that void. So it was odd when she found that she enjoyed it when Kate began to hold her in the air with her breath once again. Looking towards her mouth the lips were to close together to really see into it but the slight bit of fear seemed to make the ride more enjoyable much the same as the worry of a roller coaster tearing up makes the ride slightly more enjoyable.

The game actually continued until the main door opening got both girls attention. Amy couldn’t help but chuckle at what she saw a few seconds later. Several vehicles driving in with what Amy figured to be Kate’s food. As they parked Kate would simply lift what ever they had been carrying from the vehicle and they would leave. All except one which a soldier had gotten out and walked over to Kate and Amy. Kate having set Amy on the ground when their breakfast began to arrive. Once again Amy found herself being over fed this time she noticed a very large grin on the soldiers face. Turning to Kate “ Do they do this intentionally.” Kate took a few moments to answer as she finished chewing her food before answering. “ Do what intentionally?” “ Give me a small pile of food that I couldn’t eat in three days.” “ Naa you just need to learn to eat like one of them that is about how much they eat regularly.”

“ That is a lie and you know it.” Kate couldn’t help but grin “ Alright, Yeah they give you that much intentionally the habit developed a while back when it came to feeding me. It was decided that since I get so much food they wouldn’t want the guest to feel neglected so they just piled it on.” Amy took another look at her plate and knew right away their motives weren’t to make people feel welcome more like to give them a hard time. Letting out a sigh she took the plate and found a spot next to Kate’s massive thigh. Amy managed to avoid over stuffing herself and once again Kate finished off her food simply by turning the plate upside down while holding it over her mouth. Something that Amy wasn’t sure she would ever adapt to as she took time to consider just how small it seemed in comparison to the massive girl.

Placing the containers that had held their meal against the wall “ We will just have to wait until they come to pick up our dishes.” “ Think they are still testing.” Kate gave a nod “ They will be testing all day most likely believe it or not.” Amy fell back closing her eyes she was surprised when she felt the now familiar pressure of Kate’s fingers as she was picked up. “ Got something else to do?” “ Nope just wanted to hold you.” Amy just grinned as closed her eyes once again she could hear and feel Kate moving as she relaxed. Kate leaning back against the wall held Amy slightly against her chest as she relaxed herself. A odd feeling running threw both of the girls. Both of them had felt it before though Kate was far more familiar with it then Amy was. Holding Amy in her hand in such a manner seemed to awaken some of Kate’s more motherly instincts as she lightly petted the small girl. Amy for her part felt relaxed and safe much the way an infant does while its mother holds and protects it.

Kate had experienced the feelings before and had learned the most likely reason for them. Amy for her part had a pretty good guess why she felt so relaxed but didn’t bother to question it. Her stomach full and in such a state it was only a few moments before Amy had drifted off to sleep. Kate continued to pet Amy as she held her regretting that Amy’s time visiting would soon be coming to a close. Amy would soon have to return to the normal world and get back to her classes something that Kate didn’t like in the least. The sound of foot steps got Kate’s attention she had been so consumed in the moment that she hadn’t noticed the door open. Seeing Sheila on the walk way. “ Hi Granny.” Sheila couldn’t help but chuckle at the site as she learned against the railing.

“ Hi Katey I just figured I would stop by and see how you two are doing.” “ Just fine I am glad Amy didn’t require sedation yesterday that is for sure.” Sheila nodded “ It was a shock to all of us the way she handled everything. Most people require being sedated at least once just to be a little coherent.” Sheila peaked around at Amy for a second noticing how comfortable the girl seemed to be “ Well I will have some men come in and get your dishes once she wakes up.” Kate gave a slight nod as she watched Sheila leave. Even though they weren’t biologically related the woman had became a mother figure to her over the years. Quite a bit stricture then most peoples mothers thanks to her military training and the situation the two found themselves in but no less loving.

Kate had fallen into a relaxed state when she found Amy stirring once again the girls hand reaching out and pressing against Kate’s massive breast caused the girl to bite her lip a bit. Thanks to her enhanced senses Kate was able to feel the slight pressure even through the thick fabric of her clothing. Moving Amy away from her chest “ So have a nice nap.” Looking around for a second Amy realized just were she was and couldn’t help but blush. “ Sure did.” A short while later a group of vehicles once again arrived, Kate helped them to load the dishes back onto the vehicles the two finding themselves alone once again only a few minutes later. While Amy thought it was only good timing it actually made Kate regret the fact that they were being watched in some way almost all the time.

It would probably be a while she figured before she would truly aloud to be alone with Amy. She had grown use to such situations but that didn’t mean she enjoyed them. Amy was actually a bit disappointed when Kate set her down a few moments later she knew why though when Kate adjusted herself so that she could lay on her stomach. “ Hey Amy what do you think of the_weasle.” It took Amy a few moments to recall just who Kate was referring to “ I think he is alright to talk to even if he is a bit strange.” “ Oh but he all act pretty strange when we are online you included.” Amy nodded her head for a few moments. “ Yeah especially you I always wondered why kind of up bringing would have brought about someone with your mentality.”

Kate gave Amy a some what annoyed look causing the girl to chuckle but take a few steps back. “ Just kidding.” “ I can’t help it if normal things don’t concern me. I mean why the heck should I worry about how dark it is it isn’t like I could fit in a alley way in the first place and even if their was one big enough I doubt I would have to worry about muggers or anything else for that matter except for the poor bum I might accidently step on.” Walking around Kate Amy made her way over to the girls foot leaning against it for a few moments and placing her hand over her head. She stepped away taking a moment to judge just how much bigger Kate’s food was then her entire body. “ Or car or truck.” This got a laugh from Kate as Amy listed a few things that she could easily picture Kate’s food covering completely.

Kate was a bit surprised when she felt Amy’s hands get a grip on her foot. Looking back she watched as the girl struggled to climb a foot many times her size. Kate for her part held as still as she could as she couldn’t help but grin at the smaller creature. Amy finally managed to make her way onto Amy’s leg. Taking in a deep breath of air she began to walk up the back side of Kate’s leg looking down over the side from time to time. Climbing up on Kate’s skirt she walked across Kate’s back to finally set down on the massive girls shoulder. “ You know it would be bad if you were scared of heights.” Kate blushed a deep red a few seconds later “ I am.” Amy didn’t respond for a few moments as she wondered just what Kate meant by the words I am. It hit her a few seconds later “ How the heck can you be scared of heights shouldn’t you be afraid to even look down in that case?”

Kate slowly moved her finger over the floor as she tried to explain. “ Well I am not afraid of my own height it feels as normal to me as yours feels to you. I found out a while back while I was smaller and easier to get around though that I don’t like heights once bit. Lucky for there are very few things around that make me feel as if I am high up.” Amy gave a slight nod as she couldn’t help but laugh at the situation. A woman several hundred feet tall was scared of heights. “ You are an odd one Kate that is all I can say.” “ Well take a few moments to consider it really. How often do I feel as if I am high up? Not very often which means that I have very few instances that I can adapt to being in high places.”

“ That is true.” “ I mean everything must seem high up to you little shrimps.” “ Hey we are not little thank you very much. You are just so damn big.” Kate giggled causing her shoulders to shake and Amy to tumble off. The girl regretting having not taken hold of any of Kate’s hair. A scream came from her lips until she found herself upon a warm set surface laying in darkness. Setting their for a few seconds she had been falling towards the solid ground only a few moments ago to suddenly find herself laying on something that was relatively soft but soaking wet was quite a shock. Kate having sensed Amy falling the second the motion had began had react quickly. Her arms had been encumbered by her position so she had done the next best thing. She had simply taken in a sharp gust of air and sucked Kate into her mouth. The girl was close enough and it was the best method she knew to brake her fall. She could now feel the tiny girl moving about within her mouth probably trying to figure out just were she was.

Grinning Kate didn’t take Amy out of her mouth right away as she felt the little girls hand press against her guns and teeth. No doubt trying to figure out just were she was, Kate gave her tongue a slight flick upon Amy standing up sending the girl landing on her back. Amy for her part was trying to remain calm as she tried to figure out just were she was. The fact that she could stand up didn’t help matter as what ever she was standing on seemed intent on keeping her laying down. It was with this in mind that she began to follow the roll of solid objects until she figured out where she was. How smooth the surface was, the hot humid air, the living mass beneath her feet and the order that the stones fell in. She didn’t require any help at this point realizing that she was within Kate’s mouth. Her first instinct to scream she kept suppressed as she took in a few breaths.

A second thought came to her mind as she noticed that despite having eaten there wasn’t anything left within Kate’s mouth. That didn’t surprise her too much considering how powerful the such must be when Kate swallows. This thought was enough to get a slight yelp out of her. “ Alright Kate let me out.” Kate grinned as she heard her friends words not wanting to comply just yet though she began to roll tiny Amy about within her mouth. Amy who was already soak wouldn’t have minded the situation so much if she wasn’t having to fight back the fear of being swallowed the entire time. She was quite aware that it wouldn’t require much effort upon Kate’s part to simply swallow and that would be the end of her. Amy chose to trust her friend though as she suppressed her gut instincts and actually began to enjoy being toyed with. She would need to get cleaned up after words that was for sure but it wasn’t like she could force Kate to do anything.

Kate sensing that Amy had relaxed a bit took the time to play with the girl some. Grinning as she rolled her about like a peace of candy. Finally she opened her mouth and extracted Amy from it. Chuckling at her soaked friend who by now was a mess. “ You need to get cleaned up.” Kate placed Amy upon the walk way in front of her room. “ Thanks for the cat bath.” Kate chuckled for a second “ And for saving my life.” “ No problem besides you taste good maybe I should have just taken of your close and sucked on you a little longer.” Amy rolled her eyes as she walked into the room and headed towards the bath room wanting to get cleaned off before Kate’s saliva began to dry on her.

Kate just grinned as her friend vanished within the room, removing her hands from under her body and folding them under her chin. She hoped that the testing would be done by the next day being stuck in her room didn’t exactly suit her. She liked to get some exercise in during the day thinking about this for a second she slowly rolled over onto her stomach. Amy could hear Kate shifting outside as she washed herself off and put on a fresh pair of close. Figuring that she wouldn’t be going outside she settled on a lose pair of shorts and a over sized t-shirt before walking out to see what her friend was up to. The site of Kate’s massive body raising and falling actually surprised her as she walked to the edge of the walk way to find Kate doing some push ups. “ Wow I didn’t expect you ever exercised.” Kate gave Amy a side ways glance for a second “ And just what do you call all that running around that I did while you were hang gliding.” Blinking her eyes for a second Amy had been so caught up in what her own body was being put through she didn’t really notice how active Kate was.

Kate had been moving around most of the time she had been there doing one thing or the other. Really Amy was only sore thanks to the swimming lessons. Kate stopped her exercise for a moment as she watched Amy climb up on the railing before jumping on her back. Feeling Amy land and roll for a second Kate waited for the girl to get settled. Feeling Amy’s movement as she climbed up her tube top. “ Yeah I guess you do keep yourself busy but look at the way you eat.” “ Oh shush proportionally I eat far less then you or anyone else, and just what do you think you are doing back there anyway.” “ Helping you exercise of course silly, it helps to have a little extra weight. Now back to work.” Kate felt a few small taps which she figured to be Amy’s foot considering how the girl was setting. “ I should make you work out with me shorty.”

Amy just grinned as she enjoyed the ride laying on Kate’s back she was actually surprised for how long the massive girl was able to go before settling herself down. “ Done already?” A rush of air hit Amy had Kate been able to face her completely it would have knocked her over. “ You are asking to be put through an exercise routine of your own back there.” Kate’s fingers plucked Amy from her back a moment later. As Kate move onto her back and placed Amy on her ankle. “ Now make sure you get a good hold.” Amy didn’t bother asking what Kate was planning as she got the best grip she could. A few moments of nothing happening and hearing a sound behind her and she turned to look what was going on. “ This is going to work I am liable to send you air born if that is the best you can do.”

Amy felt a little strange as a second later she found herself tied to Kate’s ankle by a massive band of cloth. Kate blushed for a second “ That was my security blanket when I was 6.” All Amy could do is look in awe as she marveled at how much Kate had grown. The blanket was massive of course but it wasn’t anything compared to Kate’s current size. Amy found the reason for the cloth a short while later as Kate began to do leg lifts. Though the movement was slow for Kate it was a different story for Amy thanks to the size difference. “ You are a amusement park all to yourself aren’t you?” Kate just grinned her response as she went threw the wrest of her exercise routines so long as they didn’t require standing up. Finally stopping Amy noticed a playful glint in Kate’s eyes as she looked at her. Picking up her friend Amy seemed a bit uneasy as she noticed Kate’s fingers folding around her.

“ Alright little miss lazy but your turn.” Amy would have protested but she found her self needing all her breath as she pushed up on Kate’s finger. Using her legs much like people would in a leg press she knew Kate was the one really moving her finger but it seemed that the amount of force it took to move it remained constant. Kate just grinned as she put her friend threw a full body work out using her fingers as the wait. Finally stopping at the inclined bench press figuring that Amy had enough of a work out. “ Now don’t you feel good.” Amy just took in a few deep breaths of air everything she had tried to talk or complain Kate would increase the pressure which would require her to focus on what she was doing again. Waving her finger at Kate “ I hope you have to swim the Atlantic.” This got a giggle from the massive girl as she considered the breath. “ I probably could.” Shaking her hand Amy pulled down her t-shirt the fabric having been soaked with her sweat to the point that it looked like she had been in a wet t-shirt contest.“

Slowly setting up and rubbing her sore arms “ I need a drink of water.” Kate placed Amy on the walk way once again before her room. “ I doubt you really had time to explore your accommodations check out the dresser on the far right of the room it is actually a fridge.” Amy nodded only to return a few moments later with some bottled water. “ Kind of fancy for a military installation isn’t it?” Kate having laid back down looked up at her friend as she stood on the walk way. “ Just trying to make you feel at home.” Amy nodded as she returned to her room for another bottle of water having drained in the first one in a few short moments. “ Home gym nothing I figure if someone had you as a personal trainer they would be in shape in no time.” Kate grinned for a second “ Well of course after all if I was someone’s personal trainer they wouldn’t have a choice in the matter.”

“ No kidding?” Amy grinned as she rubbed her sore arms. Kate for her part only chuckled having pretty much forced Amy threw every exercise that she could think of. Kate retrieved Amy from the walk way a few moments later. Amy simply relaxed as she found herself laid on Kate’s stomach with Kate’s massive hand wresting over her only a few moments later. Though she was surprised when she finished her bottle of water and Kate’s hand retrieved it a few seconds later. Amy didn’t see Kate throw the bottle away as the two simply laid there Kate let her eyes drift shut. She seemed too since the moment that Amy went to sleep having spent a good deal of her energy exercising and not having anything else to do for the time being the girl simply let herself nod off. Kate allowed herself to fall into a relaxed state even though it wasn’t nearly the time she was use to wresting she figured it was the same for Amy though.

Amy found herself awake a few hours later Kate’s massive hand still wresting on her. Not thinking quite clearly she was shocked when she pushed up on one of Kate’s massive fingers and the entire hand lifted. Setting up for a second she looked to the side of Kate’s breast seeing a grinning Kate looking back at her. “ Good morning.” Amy was about to answer when a loud explosion got both the girls attention. “ Holy crap what was that?” Kate sighed for a second before answering “ Probably a new explosive.” “ You don’t sound too happy about that something wrong?” Kate gave a slight pout to her lips before answering “ It means that we can’t outside again today.” Amy looked at Kate for a moment she had been sore the previous day but now her entire body ached. “ Umm Kate I think that is a good thing as far as I am concerned it kind of hurts to move thanks to that work out you put me through.”

“Ahh well then you just relax right were you are.” Amy grinned as Kate’s hand rolled her onto her back feeling one of Kate’s fingers press lightly into her back she was surprised that Kate was actually capable of giving a message though not in the normal since. Rather Kate used a very small portion of her finger to apply pressure over a small portion of Amy’s body. The most surprising thing for Amy being the fact that she found herself having to fight sleep once again as Kate helped her to relax. “ So what are we going to do today?” Amy looked up not expecting Kate to ask her such a question after all it was Kate’s home and she knew the rules better then her. “ Umm I guess watch tv.” Kate nodded as she pulled her keyboard to her and began to type in a few keys. Bringing up her movie collection Amy as the two scanned the movies a thought ran threw Amy’s head as they saw the horror movies.

“Hey Kate you ever have nightmares over any of the villains?” Kate burst out into a torrent of laughter a few moments later. “ Amy I haven’t been scared of anything since I hit 150 feet tall. I mean lets take Jason for instance assuming that such a creature came to exist all I would have to do is step on him, flick him, crush him with my pinky or if I felt like it see how he fairs in a lake of stomach acid though I don’t much care for the last option be kind of gross. Giant bugs don’t worry me either since even the biggest monster bug would be nothing but a smear on the bottom of my shoe.” Amy grinned as she patted Kate’s stomach a few times. “ Well yeah I guess you don’t have too many things to worry about other then Alf.” Taking a moment to recall the character Kate gave Amy a jokingly strict look for a second. “ Oh so I am a cat now?”

“ Well you did give me a cat bath.” A bit of a huff came from Kate she hadn’t expected her little joke to back fire her on such a way. “ Who’s the good kiddy hmm who’s the good kiddy.” Hit the massive girls ears as she felt Amy’s hands rubbing her stomach. Kate started to retaliate before just letting out a huff. “ Meow.” Being the only word that came from her lips as Amy was struck down with a case of the giggles herself. “ Alright since you don’t get scared and I need someone to hold me while watching horror movies how about we watch a couple?” “ Which ones?” “ Jason goes to hell, jeapers creepers and It.” As the movie began to play Kate placed her hand next to Amy who in turn took hold of one of Kate’s fingers as best she could.

Breakfast was the only interruption in the girls viewing during the first three movies however before they could watch the second the sound of the main door opening got their attention. A man clearly in his eighties proceeded into the room a few moments later. Walking slowly as he knew he wouldn’t have to walk far. “ Uncle.” Rang from Kate’s mouth as she scooped up the elderly man only a few moments later. “ What brings you to visit us.” The gray haired old man gave a slight grin. “ Good day ladies well I heard that you were having a video day and I thought I would join you.” Amy wondered why Kate had picked her up until she noticed a hand extended to her obviously expecting a hand shake. Taking hold of Michel’s hand she wondered why Kate had called him uncle.

“ Please to meet you young lady please call me Michel.” “ Alright sir I guess from Kate’s response you know her quite well.” “ Oh yes very well I knew little Kate from the very start, heck I recall the day that she was brought here as a baby. One of the tiniest scrawniest thing I ever saw. Well we took care of the tiny too bad she is still scrawny.” A rush of air hit both Amy and Michel as Kate snorted. Amy only grinned as despite the old man’s statement Kate had a huge grin across her face it was obvious that the old fellow has a key member in her surrogate family. “ Well I am pleased to meet you so you got anything you want to watch?” “ Oh no no you two go ahead and pick I just came here to relax and see what you are watching now been a while since I went to the movies.”

Amy found herself sharing Kate’s stomach with Michel a few moments later though they were still very far apart thanks to the shier amount of space. As they browsed threw the movies Kate noticed that the doors hadn’t been shut back she found out why shortly after when a few trucks headed in. Loaded down with various fruit items Kate rolled her eyes as she looked towards the old fellow who despite his age had kept all his teeth thus was giving her a rather toothy grin. “ Here is are snacks Amy.” Amy looked some what shocked when Kate handed her and Michel a massive plate of fruit while she simply began to eat from the containers.

“ You people eat too many sweets as is today you should learn to quit tampering with nature.” “ Oh and just what do you and your scientist buddies do all day?” Came from Amy as she bit into an apple a smile upon her face. A loud sigh came from Kate as if Amy had made a very big mistake. What followed suit was a rather lengthy explanation from Michel on how he and his other scientist didn’t tamper with nature but rather improved it. The points were very easily debatable of course which is why Amy figured it was so lengthy. There was no way she was going to ask any other questions and risk that he had an equally lengthy answer to them. Rather she simply nodded her head and gave Kate the occasional glance. Kate for her part had a wide grin on her face as Amy learned a very valuable lesson about questioning one who has accumulated eight years of knowledge.

Amy and Kate were finally able to enjoy their movies after Amy had learned her lesson about asking questions. Amy for her part was surprised on how quiet Michel became while watching tv it was clear that over the years he had learned patience and when to keep quiet. One thing that Amy did notice was the look upon both Kate and Michel’s face. She had seen similar looks when Kate was with Sheila and had began to get a clearer and better idea on just how Kate was controlled. Not only were these her creatures who provided for her but they were also her family. The pessimist inside of Amy couldn’t help but see this as the worse kind of manipulation if they didn’t truly care for her. This was a quiet voice though having seen how Sheila and now Michel react with Kate she had very little doubt that it was actual carrying and not just manipulation.

Michel for his part found himself quite relaxed. Even though Kate wasn’t his biological grandchild he still felt the same way about her that he did his natural grandchildren. Really he probably felt more concern with Kate thanks to the larger amount of time he had spent with the young girl and his knowledge of her purpose. He worried about Kate despite all her size and strength and especially feared the day when she would be used as a weapon. How the world would react to her and how she would react to the world. Looking over at Amy he could tell she didn’t fully trust any of them write now that was a good thing though. He didn’t want Kate having a bunch of overly trusting friends.

The only one out of the three that seemed completely content of course was Kate herself. She always enjoyed company and the more of it the better as far as she was concerned. She only wished that she could get the other scientist, Sheila and the wrest of her friends to join her. Still thanks to the rarity of such situations she was quite content with a friend and the man she considered her uncle to keep her company.

As the third movie ran through Michel had finally had enough as he went to set up. Kate feelings the motion didn’t give the old man time to struggle to his feat. Lifting him from his setting position Michel grinned as Kate placed him upon the ground. “ Going back to work?” “ Yeah that is enough tv for me got to get some more research done.” Kate gave a slight nod as Michel left turning her attention back to Amy Kate couldn’t help but chuckle as she noticed what had happened. Having been laying down for so long and on a full stomach Amy had dosed off some time during the movies. Watching Michel leave Kate wondered if he was actually fighting sleep himself.

Amy gave a slight grumble as Kate began nudging her with her pinky. Amy upon opening her eyes seemed to look at Kate for longer then normal as it took her a moment to fully awaken. Slowly looking around the plain of Kate’s stomach Amy stretched as she set up. “ So were did the old man go?” “ Back to work I guess he decided to take a extended brake.” “ They can get away with that.” “ Michel can and a few others but like you said he is old in his eighties actually so he gets some extra consideration well that and he is the civilian head of research.” Nodding her head Amy proceeded to set up her body having gone some what stiff after laying around for such a long time.

Kate watched Amy walk around upon her stomach for a little bit as the girl tried to get her muscles to relax. She couldn’t help but laugh however when Amy started doing jumping jacks not so much that the motion was amusing but were she chose to do it was. This ended in Amy lousing her balance and landing on her rump. Amy found herself being treated some what like Michel as Kate didn’t wait for her to stand up again. Rather Kate’s fingers lifted her from the fabric of Kate’s tube top and simple placed her upon the walk way. “ Nothing else planned for today?” As the words left Amy’s lips she noticed Kate pointing towards the computer screen. The time being twelve oclock Amy let out a slight huff. “ Oh just didn’t want me to sleeping on you?”

“Na That I don’t mind but you need to get cleaned up as do I.” Amy looked on for a moment as Kate began to open the doors to let herself out. “ Hey I thought we weren’t allowed to go out.” Kate gave a grin as she looked back towards her friend “ You are not I am.” Amy sighed and rolled her eyes as she walked into her room and began to diss robe not really finding it surprising that Kate was permitted to wonder around even during testing. The installation was pretty much Kate’s home after all and Kate was a military secret herself so it probably didn’t matter if she wondered around.

Kate didn’t worry about all the testing going on around her as most everyone that was involved where a little busy to look at her and she couldn’t really request privacy at the time. Still it did make her request that the only place she could shower wasn’t out in the open. Being around seven hundred feet tall and still growing limited what could be done for her of course. While a structure could have been built to house her more comfortable the simple truth was she was still increasing in size and no one really knew how much she was going to grow. This of course meant building anything for her could be a waste of time since she might out grow it thus making the expense a rather extreme waste as most things tailored made to Kate really couldn’t be used by anyone else.

Kate let out a sigh as she moved back into her little shelter dressing herself and laying down. She looked towards Amy’s room regretting that the next day she would have to spend herself off. She was glad to have company for even a week though and it would probably get tiring to have them around all the time. Still as she knew that it could well be a few months before someone else came to visit her she found herself trying to think of what they should do on the finale day. Recalling that Amy had enjoyed wondering around the sand castle she resolved that is what they would look into tomorrow before letting herself relax.

As complete awareness came to Kate the next mourning she looked towards the computer screen. Finding it to be a few hours before Amy woke up the giantess grinned as she slipped on her bikini and made her way out of her room towards the beach. Setting down in front of the unfinished sand castle she began to work on it once again. Figuring she would check up on her friend in a little while she wanted to at least have a few things ready for when Amy woke up. Amy for her part was true to her nature when she woke up at well past nine. Looking around the room for a little while the girl brushed her teeth before heading out of her room. Looking towards the large opening where Kate normally set she was surprised to find that the young giantess was no were to be seen.

She had just began to head back to her room when she heard the massive door opening and Kate peaking back in. “ Hey Amy why don’t you get a swim suit on.” Amy only nodded as he could tell that Kate had already been on the beech making her wonder just how long the girl had been up. Getting dressed and running outside Amy found herself standing next to Kate’s food for the first time that the girl was standing up. No longer being held or having Kate set down Amy had been amazed by how big Kate was but the moment seemed to bring everything into perspective as she once again found herself looking at Kate in a state of awe. Watching as Kate’s massive leg moved well above her and backwards. Amy realized that Kate had stood to close to the building and probably couldn’t see her thanks to the two large obstructions upon her chest.

Stepping back and extending her hand Kate grinned at the shocked look upon her friends face. This was another reason that they normally had people meet Kate while she was setting down and they were on a walk way helped to keep them from realizing just how big she was. Though standing next to her foot tended to have the exact opposite effect as it often made people think she was much larger when she really was. Amy enjoyed the ride as they headed towards the beech neither of them wanting to talk about the fact that this would be Amy’s last day of visiting for a little while. Amy for her part was a little scared at the idea of leaving she had been chosen since she was favorable towards the government of course but still she had a bit of concern. The idea of just vanishing didn’t seem appealing to her at all as she considered all the possible scenarios. These were soon pushed from her mind however as she found herself exploring Kate’s handiwork.

The main structure of the castle was largely finished and a tower had even been added to it. Looking around Amy began to feel rather short as the castle seemed to be made for people that feel into the eight to nine foot range which she was no were even near. Amy did recall however that Kate wanted someone to serve as a guide for her work and now she knew why. Looking out one of the windows she watched as Kate compressed the sand to what she considered to be stone.

This alone would have been impressive enough in her opinion but the fact that Kate could then mode it into a castle was quite shocking. Kate noticing that her friend was watching her gave a rather large grin. “ I figure that since we are not in the middle ages anymore I am safe from any sword packing lunatic.” Amy gave a slight laugh “ Does that make me the princess?” Kate stopped her working as she seemed to think about this before answering her friend “ More like the accomplice after all how often is the princess friends with the giantess?” “Oh so I am the bate for the night now?” “Yup that is a good way of summing it up.” Amy grinned as she considered the concept and once again began to head through the tower. Thinking as she reached the top of the spire she yelled out to Kate. “ Well you know if I am an accomplice this place could use a dungeon.”

Amy found herself wondering through Kate’s completed work a few hours later. Looking around the castle she was amazed by her knew friends dexterity and control over her strength. Finally stepping out onto a balcony she noticed a wide grins on Kate’s face as if she was waiting for something. “ Very nice Kate I bet their were plenty of builders that would have loved to have you around.” “ Glad to see you like it.” Kate picked up Amy only a few moments later looking down at her work the sound of a horn honking got the two’s attention as they looked back to see Sheila setting in a jeep. “ Alright girl everything is packed up time for us to send Amy home.” Kate’s smile faded a bit but only a bit as she sighed. She didn’t say anything to Amy though as she carried the girl towards the landing pad. Amy for her part felt a bit down until her thoughts turned to her stuff. “ Wait we need to go back to my room and pick up my things.” “ Don’t worry they already got your stuff and the landing pad most likely.”

Amy didn’t complain just nodded her head as she imagined her stuff had already been searched the first day she was here. Sheila for her part remained in her jeep until Kate had stepped over it while this might have seemed dangerous in truth it was the best method to keep Kate from stepping on something provided she cared for you. Amy found her items already packed and waiting for her which got a grin from her. “ You that eager to get rid of me?” “Well you know the saying fish and company stink in three days and you have been here for seven.” Amy gave Kate a stern look before both girls laughed. Kate placed Amy on the ground near the helicopter that would take her back to the main land. Absently Kate tried to make a note of various details of the helicopter. She wanted to look up its exact type when she got home and find out just how great its range was.

It was well after take off when Amy was handed a slip of paper. As Amy looked at the check she was at first surprised to have been given it though. Holding up to the soldier “ No thanks.”. She noticed a smile on the man’s face before he took her hand and pushed the money paper back towards her. “ It is nice to hear that but don’t worry about it. You will be getting another invite before to long and if you ever want to speed it up just let Kate know.” Amy nodded as she considered the fact that she still had her friend online. Looking at the check she grinned even though it was for staying with a friend it was nice to get more then two weeks pay just for having fun.

[happiest_in_shadows]

Kate slipped on her bathing suit from the previous day while Amy changed a new one. While Kate had worn hers previously the washing it had received at the end of the day had washed any sand from it. That tended to be how most things were taken care of as far as Kate was concerned. You defiantly didn’t need to be gentle with her, it had been so long since something other then herself had been able to hurt her. As Amy came out she once again found Kate’s hand waiting for her. Upon climbing into it though she found herself lifted to Kate shoulder and dropped off. Grinning at her friend, Kate fulled a few strands of her hair over to her to hold on. “ Tired of carrying me?” “ Not really I just wanted to free up my hands and I was thinking you might be getting tired of me carrying you all the time. So I thought you might enjoy an chance to just ride on my shoulder.”

“ It is a long way down.” “ Oh don’t worry about that, just hold on to my hair and I will be careful to keep you from falling.” As Kate began to move Amy found her nerves on edge, holding onto Kate’s hair almost to the point that her knuckles began to turn white. It felt like a amusement park ride that everyone insisted was safe, but there just didn’t see to be enough things holding you in place. As if you could be thrown off at any moment, plus since was having to crawl she found herself bent at an angle, something she did not enjoy in the least. The thought that she would feel better once Kate stood was proven to be false as even though she no longer felt as if she was slipping the shier increase in height sent her mind screaming. Something about having to depend on her own strength and balance, while not having Kate’s hand safely around her unnerved her a great deal.

“ Kate…. would you umm.” Looking over at her shoulder, Amy didn’t have time to finish the sentence. Kate having had this experience before didn’t wait for her to task before wrapping her fingers around the tiny girl. Holding her now in the palm of her hand Amy seemed to relax quite a bit. Kate chose not to mention anything as they made their way over to the mess hall, which was currently filled with soldiers forcing down their breakfast. “ Hey Kate, I was wondering. Should the mess hall be part of the main structure?” “ Well it was but it was moved once the projects got into biological agents and other things, to provide some more safety. Also there is me to take into account, it was decided a while back that it would just be easier to keep food preparation all in the same area instead of having to set up a special area for me.” Amy nodded as they found the same spot as before.

Amy was surprised when she found a plate placed before her without even asking, Kate’s food came out rather quickly as well. “ Now Kate your eggs are going to be some what cold since you didn’t wake up on schedule.” Came from the cook, “ That is fine, make them salty?” “ As always.” Came from the pudgy fellow as he made his way back into the mess hall. While Kate enjoyed a large helping of eggs and quite a few watermelons that she ate like some would have eaten berries. Amy found herself looking at a large plate of pan cakes, eggs, and bacon. “ Hey Kate who is the joker that made this, it is bigger then me.” Kate let out a giggle, “ The head cook’s name is Greg and I think he just gave you a big pile of the left overs since we did arrive late.” Amy let out a sigh as she began to eat the mill deciding this time that she was not going to eat herself sick.

“ Now Amy next time I carry you, you are going to have to ride on my shoulder since I am going to need my hands free.” Amy’s chewing slowed down as these words hit her, having already eaten a decent amount of her food. She slowly pushed the plate away, “ Well alright I will try to hold it in, but just in case I react more strongly than I would like I think I should quit eating now.” Kate just grinned, as she had already finished off her food. Taking Amy back into her hand and depositing the girl upon her shoulder, she felt Amy’s hand wrap around a strand of her hair. “ Just relax Amy, I won’t let you fall.” These words didn’t help Amy very much as Kate stopped off and picked up a serf bored as well as a raft, it didn’t take her long to realize either that only one of Kate’s hands was more then enough to hold these items.

It was tempting for her to ask to be picked up again, but she had to wonder just why Kate would want her to remain upon her shoulder. It seemed to be a trust exercise, after Kate had taken some time to think of it. Doing what she could to toughen up and keep herself from asking to be picked up again. It helped her quite a bit once she heard the rushing of water and the clear sound of massive objects hitting it. She assumed those were Kate’s feet as she looked out over the ocean. The realization of how far they must be moving out though once she noticed the water riding up above Kate’s chest hit home. As the finally made it out to a level where the young Titaness felt content she slowly lowered Amy into the water. Amy for her part took a moment to look up at Kate, who was placing a few items into the water.

Finding herself looking up at Kate, she noticed that water came up to Kate’s chest, considering how tall the girl was Amy didn’t much care for the fact that the water had to be a couple hundred feet deep. Looking back towards the shore, the water she found herself swimming in was actually calm thanks to the depth of it. “ So you are going to take care of the waves right?” Kate grinned giving a nod she tapped the serf bored under the water a few times, as Amy swam over to it. She moved just over the area that it vanished and wait for Kate to let go. The bored came up under the girl, guided by Kate’s hand though all the way up until the last few inches. Taking a few steps back, Amy was surprised that she could still easily since the presence of Kate’s massive foot falls even under so much water.

“ Read?” Was the only thing she heard as Kate didn’t wait for a answer before lifting her hands from the water, locking them together and driving them into the sea. The resulting impact created a rather large wave, defiantly not of tsunami levels but more then enough to lift Amy and bored from the water. Amy felt the water rushing up on her as she looked towards her back, the wave lifting her up and carrying her towards shore, the ride went on longer then normal as it had much longer to travel. This giving Amy courage to try and stand up on the bored, had she not done this she might have rode the way until its energy died out. As she tried to stand though she found herself losing her balance and taking a heard first plunge into the water.

Amy didn’t have time to swim for the surface though as she felt something warm and soft come up from under her. It was only a second later that she was above the water, wresting in Kate’s hand the serf bored in the other. “ So ready to try again?” Hit Amy’s ears as she looked herself over, Kate had snatched her up out of the water even before she could get choked. “ Sure thing, think you can always snatch me up that quick?” “ For now while I am only making little waves, I think we should start on your balance first though.” Amy gave a nod as she was placed on the bored this time, laying down she felt Kate’s pinky nudge her side a few times. Upon Amy setting up Kate took her between her fingers. Holding the girl upright on the bored so that only the slightest amount of weight wrested upon her legs.

As Kate released her Amy took hold of Kate’s massive pinky finger. Using this to keep herself steady as she struggled to stay upright on the bored. Kate seeing that Amy seemed to be doing alright after a few minutes decided to remove her finger and see if Amy can stand on her own. She was surprised when she didn’t feel the tiny hands on her finger let go but rather found Amy still holding on. “ Just what do you think you are doing? You put me back there and keep your hand right next to me.” This got a laugh from Kate as she struggled to keep her hand steady as she settled Amy back down. “ You know maybe we should just try setting first.” Giving a nod Amy set down upon the bored, a leg over each side to help her stay on it.

Kate began to move around the bored, every so often using her hands to create a small wave as Amy did her best to remain on it. Each time Kate moved the bored she would adjust her position just a little bit in order to insure that Amy remained in water that was deep enough, while not getting taken further out to sea. The water kept in a range that never went to bar below Kate’s bust line or too far below. This game continued for nearly two hours as Kate constantly adjusted her position the girls continued talking through out the lesson went quicker then most, as Amy wasn’t required to return to her own bored or wait for waves. Kate just continued to generate them by lightly hitting the water with enough force to shatter several feet of concrete.

The rate of the lesson though and the constant waves sapped all of Amy energy before too long. As she found herself getting tired she leans on the bored, “ Hey Kate could we take a brake?” Noticing her friend seemed to be out of breath, and her legs were turning red from the exercise. It seemed they would have to continue this some other time, “ Sure thing.” Amy was a bit shocked when Kate picked her up once again, she had been expected to be allowed to lay upon the bored. As she laid in Kate’s hand though she felt herself being moved from side to side as Kate was looking for something. “ Oh crap that is what I get for not paying attention. I had brought that raft for you to relax in but I think I washed it out to sea.” Sighing for a moment, Amy felt an odd motion as she noticed Kate slowly leaning back.

As Kate settled herself back into the water, she had to be move more slowly then normal. The water could support her but she had to be even more careful then a normal person as she finally found herself settled down. Her free hand picking up the serf bored and placing it upon her stomach as well as Amy. Looking around for a moment, “ Well I guess this is one solution.” “ Yup gets me off my feet, and you can relax for a while as well. After this you should be able to just swim around some like you wanted to.” Nodding her head Amy looked around for a second. She didn’t want to dry off as she hated the residue salt water left behind if you allowed it to evaporate off your skin. Looking around for a second Kate felt Amy’s tiny foot falls as the girl made her way down her stomach.

Peeking around her breast to see what was going on, she watched as Amy made her way down to her belly button and slipped right in. Chuckling at the site, of the girl be able to set in her belly button it was true that Amy’s movements were restricted by the water was defiantly kept warm by Kate’s body heat and Amy figured that it would take longer for all of it to evaporate from Kate then it would her own skin. The girls talked for a while until each in her own time fell into a half sleep state. Amy just looking around and wondering how they managed to keep this place clean with all the testing that went on around it. Kate just enjoying someone else’s company and moving her hands threw the water.

Kate could feel some ocean life moving about her, a few of the fish even nipping at her skin though moving on when they found they couldn’t get it to give. Most large predators kept away from the area seeming to have responded by the sounds that her foot falls had generated in the water. While they were loud on the land, with the noise being able to move even more quickly and sharply in the water it wasn’t surprising that anything with a since of hearing avoided the area as she moved about. With the noise having died down some see life returned to the area, though she figured they would quickly leave once she began to move about the area once again.

In this situation both girls seem to doze off as they just spent their time relaxing. Amy actually having to fight off sleep from time to time as she found herself enjoying her position. The only thing that managed to ster her from her restful state was when the water went down too far below her shoulders and she began too since the salt on her skin. Climbing out of Kate’s belly button and walking to her side. There was no way that she would have tried jumping from Kate’s side if they were on land. As things were now though Kate’s body had sunk a decent depth into the water in order to permit her to float. Gaging the height as not much worse then some of the high dives of the swimming pools she went to. Kate’s eyes flared wide open the moment she felt Amy leave her body and dive into the water.

Her first noting was to turn to her side and snatch the girl up, but as this would force Amy under her body that was completely out of the question. Before she could decide on an action though Amy surfaced near by, causing Kate to let out a sigh of relief an action that Amy noticed. “ Something wrong?” Amy was actually surprised when Kate’s hand came up under her and lifted her out of the water. “ Amy please don’t do that again, what if I had been floating even lightly in the direction you were or you had come up in the wrong direction. It might not seem like it but it is quite dangerous to get stuck under me. If I don’t move just right the shift in my weight can be like a ship sinking and actually drag you under the water. So I couldn’t just move quickly if you got trapped under me.”

A some what sick look appeared on Amy’s face, “ I guess I let it slip my mind, it isn’t every day you are around someone as big as you.” “ I know but please before you do something like that again tell me, so I can advise against it.” Amy just grinned, “ Maybe.” Kate just rolled her eyes at this reaction, extending her arm out she turned her hand slightly and dumped Amy back into the water, this time a good deal away from her body. “ You just like to be difficult.”

Amy broke the water a little while after Kate had finished speaking. Spitting out some sea water and making a revolted face do to the taste. After recovering she began to swim around a bit as she moved about Kate was careful to keep a close eye on her though she seemed to be half asleep. Amy had chosen to try and make a lap around Kate though she remembered not to get to close to her, as she did note that even though it was very slowly Kate was indeed being moved very slowly by the various currents that pulled on her massive form. As she swam around the thought that had Kate been normal sized she would have splashed her made a grin as she considered how ineffective that would be and the consequences if Kate decided to retaliate.

As Amy swam about she took note of how Kate looked in the vast ocean normally Kate looked simply huge even in pictures. However, in the water with nothing to compare her against she simply appeared to be another female. It made Amy wonder if anyone had seen a picture of Kate in a state such as she was currently in only to encounter her in person later on. “Hey Kate I was just thinking I get why you can’t put a picture of yourself in your profiles, but don’t you think you could put one of yourself swimming? I mean it isn’t like anyone could tell just how big you are if you did that besides even if you put a picture of yourself where they could it isn’t like anyone would believe it. They would just think that someone had done a really good job of editing it.

“I haven’t really thought of it all that much Sheila just said that I probably shouldn’t put a picture of myself in it. I wonder if Sheila knows about the gts communities online maybe I should show her some.” Amy looked perplexed for a second as it took her a moment to realize that Kate was referring to web sites that dealt with the subject of giantess. Though she hadn’t looked into it herself she got the idea pretty quickly that Kate had. She didn’t really find it surprising that Kate would look into such things. “ Know of a few good web sites.” “ Yup I know of a few and now that I am thinking on it I actually be Sheila does. I know they browse the web sites I like to visit every once in a while. I guess they just didn’t feel comfortable talking to me about it.” This got a chuckle from Kate though Amy looked more annoyed then anything else.

“ Don’t you get tired of them invading your privacy?” A swell of water lifted Amy up a second later, as Kate began to raise up letting herself sink a bit before righting herself and standing up. The action served to push Amy away and ruin her chances of finishing her swim around Kate. Though in truth she probably wouldn’t have made it when Kate chose to stand up Amy was only about mid thigh length down and was showing sines of tiring out already. She would have had to finish another side and the last bit of Kate’s leg if she was going to finish. “ Amy I am over 600 feet tall I have very little of anything that is considered privacy. Even now when I am controlling my voice I know everyone back on the island can hear me at least almost everyone.”

Amy let out a sigh she didn’t see how that explained then looking into what she did on the internet but she doubted Kate would listen to it. These were effectively the people that had raised her and conditioned her over the years it isn’t like she is going to suddenly turn against them considering how good a job they did. Plus even though they keep taps on her Amy had already realized that they are very careful to keep from doing it in the open. They probably watch her through cameras and her computer was the only conclusion Amy could reach. Amy was taking out of her revelry as she noticed that only Kate’s head remained above the water. “ Did we float out to a deeper area or something.

“Nope not as deep I am sitting down.” Amy just shook her head before a massive gust of wind hit her. Quickly realizing that it was Kate’s breath she held her hands up while using her legs to swim. “ Quit quit quit it.” Looking at Kate for a second who was grinning quite widely Amy finally gave in. Swimming over to her Kate continued to smile Amy waited until she was only a foot away pulled back her arm and splashed Kate for all she was worth. Kate seemed to go into a state of shock at Amy’s action. “ See how you like it.” Hit Kate’s ears as Amy giggled slightly Kate finally snapping out of her state of shock burst into a fit of giggles at the thought. Amy felt something grasp her leg a second later expect Kate to pull her under the water. Instead she found herself lifted upside down into the air letting out a rather indignant cry.

“You tall people always taking advantage of your height.” “ Oh shush you seemed to enjoy using me for a couch earlier on.” “ At your size more like a boast.” Kate moved Amy above her head holding the smaller girl above her mouth just as these words were spoken. The fingers that held Amy released dropping her towards Kate’s mouth which quickly formed into a pucker. A scream came from Amy until a jet of air hit her lifting her up into the air. As Kate used her breath to keep Amy in flight. The scream of fear turned into one of enjoyment as she began to scream for Kate to send her higher. Kate for her part was careful to keep Amy only about thirty feet above her face. Not wanting to risk blowing too hard and accidently sending her friend off in another direction.

Finally a hand came up and snatched Amy from the air while she was at the top height. As Amy found herself engulfed in darkness she just laid there. Trying to finish a swim around Kate and the surfing lessons had tired her out quite a bit. Wondering just how late it was she enjoyed the feeling of gravity on her body as Kate stood up to her massive height. Opening her hand to look down at the little girl that wrested within it “ So what you want to do now.” “ How about take a nap I am exhausted.” Nodding her head Kate wasn’t the least bit tired but she figured Amy would be. Walking back towards shore she figured she would drop Amy off in her room and while Amy washed herself she would go get herself hosed down as well. Really though she didn’t want to go with the same type of wash as yesterday.

She would much rather have a bath grinning at this thought she would have to stop off and talk to Sheila so she could get some privacy. She knew she couldn’t ever get complete privacy after all there was the fire crew and no matter what some people would sneak a peak. There was also the fact that at over seven hundred feet tall she was pretty hard to miss. “ Just how is this place heated?” Hit Kate’s ears a few minutes later as she crawled into the area that served as her room, “ Body heat mostly I generate an awful lot also it is well insulated. A few other things that keep it warm as well of course.” Nodding as she was set down Amy walked rather stiffly into her room. The water having had a good deal of help dry while Kate was keeping her air born.

“ I might be a while I am going to get cleaned up.” Turning around Amy noticed Kate heading towards the exit waving to her she made her way into her room. Figuring that she could take this time to try and get herself a little more organized and see just what they had put in her room. She had noticed a tv and other things as well as some cd’s but she wasn’t sure what was on them. There was also the hope that there would be a computer she would have to be careful about what she said though. Since she was sure that her conversations and post would be being monitored the entire time. The first thing she decided to do though was to get herself cleaned up, as she started to strip of her bathing suit she began to wonder if she could get her close cleaned up. She would just have to ask Kate about it later on dropping her top and bottom. The thought that she was being watched now hit her. Turning bright red she hoped they would at least give her privacy during these times she would just have to ask about that one later on.

Sheila could tell Kate was heading her way before the girl even got close. Noticing that she no longer had Amy with her and knowing full well that they had been swimming it didn’t take much to realize what she was going to ask for. Coming up to the roof before Kate even got there, “ I take it you are going to want to get yourself washed of?” “ Yup think you could get me some privacy.” Sheila just grinned, “ Be out in thirty minutes it is going to take that long to get everyone in their stations. Nodding her head Kate began the trip back to her room she figured that it would take a little while to get everything prepared. Of course everyone couldn’t be brought in at least not entirely. There always had been a few people keeping watch just incase something went wrong with the security systems.

Dusting herself off a bit before she crawled back into her room she didn’t show it as much as Amy did but Kate didn’t exactly like having salt water drying on herself either. Laying down in her room she gave a slightly shake. Looking towards the projection that served as her computer’s screen she noted the time. Opening up a few files she began to browse threw various images that she had collected over the years. A good deal of them being of locations that she would like to visit while some were artistic renderings of various people in characters and people as giantess. The good majority of the pictures she collected show casing some of the things she would like to do. Grinning at the thought of going to places like the grand canyon. She knew one day she would get to travel at least after all nothing can last for ever and she had no doubt the secret of her existence would eventually be released.

“ Alright little lady everyone is cleared out.” Came from behind Kate as she looked over her shoulder. Noticing a soldier standing at the entrance Kate gave a smile. “ Alright I will be out in a second.” Nodding as he left she heard a vehicle start up and head off figuring that he was heading towards his assigned position as well or a good peeping spot. Kate digs out a pair of panties, bra, tube top and a skirt. As Kate headed out to take her shower Amy was spending her time enjoying a nice long bath. Figuring that it would take them a while to get everything ready she had been lessening to the sounds of Kate moving about as she relaxed. Figuring that the second time was for her to actually get rinsed off. Amy looked at her hands noticing the water had caused the skin to begin to wrinkle she had been soaking for such a long time.

Climbing out of the tub she went to go get dressed figuring she could see what was on the tv they had put in the room. Kate scanned the area as she walked towards the tower once again. Stripping off her massive top as she walked she had to stop and carefully remove her bottom though as she couldn’t risk being forced to hop down that she was on the actual base and not just the beach. The entire area had been made to resist bomber attacks and even a nuclear blast so long as it didn’t hit directly. This allowed for Kate to walk around and even run however jumping on one leg was still very much out of the question. As the solders that manned the hoses on the station looked on they kept their whistles to themselves.

Having to bath out in the open was one of the things that Kate still felt self conscious about. Even though she was use to showing off her body this was still an extreme and Sheila nor the scientist wanted anyone making Kate nervous about getting washed off. It was for this reason that anyone that got to bath her had to keep their comments to themselves or risk a reprimand and being sent to work in a less favorable location at least. As Kate walked over a few of the soldiers were rather tempted to make a statement about her breast. Even without any support they didn’t sag a trait that no was sure if it was from the drug or if she was just naturally a really fit young lady. “ Alright I hope the water is warm this time.” Got a laugh as they had learned long ago that in Kate’s case it really didn’t matter. They hadn’t really found an extreme of heat or cold that appeared in nature that would bother the massive girl.

Each man turned on the water at their station as they began to give Kate her rinse. The play from the previous day when she was clothed though was gone. As this time she was getting a true bath and they were under strict orders to keep things professional. Washing Kate’s entire body always took a long time especially when one was doing a thorough jog as was being done right now. Each person had a certain area of skin to cover, of course the crotch and breast regions were still the most highly prized area. The crotch for this job was the most prized though as the person doing the washing was afforded more privacy from Kate’s eyes then the one that worked on her breast.

Each jet of water was moved slowly over Kate’s form careful to cover every area of her massive body. Kate for her part enjoyed the experience as she slowly turned so that the wrest of her body could be washed off. She was always in the greatest hurry though when she had her back to the tower though. It was true that when she faced the structure everyone working on it could see her. The fact that she had something in front of her helped while as she turned her back she there was nothing to cover her up with except her hands and open air. The water was turned up a good deal more for these washes as there was no worry of them damaging Kate clothing.

As Kate stood there a thought came to her mind as she realized that she had forgotten to tell Amy just how long her showers normally take. Letting out a sigh it isn’t like she was going to request for someone to go tell her and give them an excuse to take a peak at her. She figured that Amy could wait about an hour after all as she slowly turned her massive form to the side. Each time they finished a different side of her body she would get a thumbs up from the one that was in charge of washing her face. Always turning slowly to help them insure their work. Amy for her part had managed to find some decent tv shows and wondered if they were the ones that were normally shown to Kate.

The channels ranged quite a bit more then she had expected they would though as she recalled Kate did spend most of her time on the beach. So it wasn’t very likely that they had to worry about her TV viewing too much more like only monitor the shows when she is watching them. Sighing and settling for a comedy she wasn’t really able to get into the show though as she found herself dosing off the fatigue from her lessons earlier in the day and just swimming in general catching up with her. Kate for her part had finished up her bath and was dropping off her clothing. Leaving the bathing suit within a rather large building to get it washed off. She would just pick it up later on though she new they would put it mostly through the same treatment she got. Except they would take the time to inspect the material and see how much wear and tear had occurred.

Slipping on her clothing Kate felt quite relaxed as she wondered back to the structure that served as her home. Crawling back in she was surprised at what she heard the sounds of someone sleeping. Looking towards the door to Amy’s room Kate placed her finger against it. Pushing it open the machinery having been set up to actually give way when enough force was applied simply slid open to let her pink inside. What she found was Amy lightly napping on a chair. Letting the door slide back shut “ Well she didn’t even stay up long enough to eat dinner.” Thinking on this for a second Kate simply let out a side as she laid down on her back. Scooting her way further into the structure this time she took out the massive bag that served as her pillow.

Kate was ready to do something long before Amy was even awake the next morning. A the giantess had gotten out of her bed before six and began to plan out the days activities. The first thing she wanted to do was some bungee jumping followed by some hang glide. At least her version of them since nothing like that could really support Kate. That was only two activities though so she now found herself trying to think of something else they could do. This was proving to be a challenge though as she considered the options. She doubted Amy would want to play tag and one untrained person really wouldn’t be that much of a challenge in the first place.

Kate did spend some time trying to think of a game that they could compete in but she drew a blank in that area. The games that she played were anyone competed where pretty much all her being the predator and she didn’t want to compete at something that would be too easy to win. It had also been a very long time since Kate had played anything in which she was the hunted. This wasn’t thanks to Kate’s size or anything rather it was due to the fact that it was simply far too easy to catch her. She was simply too big of a target for anyone to miss. Kate was finally forced to settle on the fact that the final games would have to be some bored games on her computer. These of course she would just leave up to Amy to pick from after all she was planning on taking her hang gliding and bungee jumping already.

A few soldiers had gathered outside even though most of them were awake about the same time Kate was they currently had task to perform. The few that didn’t have anything to do had simply been setting around relaxing and watching Kate pace around. Many of them still found it amazing to see someone the size of a mountain moving so quickly. It also gave them a appreciation for the strength of the reinforced concrete that had been put in to protect the structure from bombs. Heading over towards the mess hall early Kate bent down as Greg came out “ Hey Kate were is your friend.” “ Still sleeping I just figured that I could order early.” “ About when will you be down?” “ I would say in about an hour.” Greg gave a nod not bothering to ask Kate any more questions after all it was a limited list of things she could eat as it did take a while for them to make them. Plus he had been working with Kate for so long that he knew what it meant when she asked for such things.

Kate tended to mean that she want a sample of a lot of things like eating and who ever was eating with her would get a big meal. This did take a while to prepare though and was more costly then her normal breakfest but she didn’t ask for it often so it never was much of a problem. Kate still heard a collective grone from the men who had mess hall duty for the day. She heard orders being barked the moment Greg reentered the kitchen area. Grinning Kate left the cooks to their job as she headed back towards her room to see if Amy had awoken up yet. It would a pretty good while before the food was read so Amy would probably be able to finish sleeping at least. The level of sound that Kate made while slipping back into her room was quite amazing not do to the volume but the lack of it.

Kate had learned a while back how to be relatively quiet though it was especially relative. It was pretty much impossible for her to walk, crawl or in general move without making a good deal of sound. For her size though she was extremely quiet as she slipped back into her room. Looking into Amy’s room for a second a concern came to mind as she began to think of what she had planned for the day. Amy had her body pretty much maxed out the previous day so she might not have a desire to do anything that involves moving around a great deal. The bungee jumping wouldn’t be much of an issue was far as that goes as she could just let her body relax especially the way she did it with Kate.

It was the hang gliding she was worried about until she resolved that all Amy would really have to do is relax in the harness. Kate planned on doing the wrest of the work after all doing things the normal way wasn’t Kate’s style and more often then not completely impossible for her. A annoying beeping took Kate away from her current train of thought as her first reaction was to check on Amy when she didn’t appear in the door way right away Kate actually began to reach for her planning on braking the wall down in order to get her. She stopped herself though when she noticed the beeping wasn’t the base’s alarm as the sound was slightly different and the emergency lights had yet to come on.

Looking in through the door way instead of tearing it down she watched as Amy fumbled for her alarm clock. Shutting the alarm off Amy proved to be anything but a morning person as Kate looked on. The girls first reaction being to pull the covers over her head and remain under them until the air began to become uncomfortable at which time she pulled off the covers. Kate couldn’t help but giggle as she noticed Amy’s eyes remained shut as if she was doing everything possible to keep asleep. The last time that Amy had woke up she had to deal with Kate’s body heat warming her up now with just the covers she was pretty to try to hold on to sleep for as long as she could. That was her thoughts at least until a gust of wind hit her bringing with it a massive gust of warm air into the room.

A the air warmed her she could feel her sleep slipping away from her until her eyes slowly drifted open. The light chuckles coming from outside the room were very plain since despite the tone being light Kate’s laughter was always easy to hear. Grumbling to herself and climbing out of bed Amy proceeded in the wrest room to get washed off leaving Kate to laugh it off. The giant girl was quite amused with herself and at her friends reaction “ You know you wouldn’t be able to sleep in so late if you worked here.” Yelling to make sure Kate could hear her while she climbed into the shower “ Oh and just what where you doing”. This only got a grin from Kate “ Unlike you I am actually always aware the best I can do is enter a half sleep state so when ever someone calls for me I am always ready in a few moments.”

Thinking about this for a second “ Hey wait a minute you mean that you were awake when I was trying to get down last night.” “ Yep though I will say I think you are the only one that used that method to get down.” Amy just grinned quite pleased with herself while she washed herself off the next time Kate pretended to be asleep now she knew all she had to do is yell at her especially if what she said was true and the giant girl never truly slept. “ Hey does that mean you don’t dream?” Thinking on how to answer that “ Well my brain wave activity does change while I am in a wrest state and my entire body does slow down that is true. It isn’t nearly as complete as what you humans go through. As for dreaming the activity that normally goes on during rem sleep does go on in me as well it is just that I am aware of what is going on around me in the real world as well. It is pretty odd but I can’t say how different it is from dreaming since well I can’t remember when I use to dream.”

The fact that Kate use to dream at all once again made Amy curious about her past but she chose not to ask any questions on that subject. She didn’t want to pressure her and she figured that Kate would tell her when she wanted to. Climbing out of the shower the realization that she had left her close in the other room only came when she stated to dry herself off. “ Alright now you get your head away from the door.” Came to Kate’s ears shrugging she turned her back to the door “ You are lucky you get privacy while you bath. Sheila and the others do the best they can for me but my privacy is limited.”

“ Hehe well it is only fair you tall people should have a few draw backs in your life.” The gust of wind that hit Amy a second later nearly knocked her over and sent chills up and down her entire body.” Kate having now waited for the air to warm while inside her mouth and blowing it out at such a extreme rate as well as Amy being soaked meant that air was more then a little cold to her as she found herself left shivering. “ Hey now that was uncalled for warm it back up in here.” Amy was surprised when Kate’s response came a few seconds later another massive gust of air entered into the room this time quite warm and pleasant. Enough so that Amy didn’t mind simply letting her towel drop away as she got dressed.

“ Hey Kate I was wondering yesterday while I showered do they spy on guest?” Kate grinned, wondering if she should give Amy a hard time “ Not to my knowledge at least as far as the shower goes and while you get dressed you get some privacy that doesn’t stop them from using infrared and lessening in on you though. Pretty much while you are here you won’t ever be completely alone.” Amy didn’t care for this detail after all she had been invited still she was on a military installation hanging around with a military secret so she figured they would be a little cautious. “ I don’t take it they would let me take some pictures.” “ Oh sure you can take as many as you want there is just no way you are going to get out of here with the film. You would have to wait for return trips in order to look at them.”

Amy came out a second later dressed and carrying a camera “ Well at least I will be able to look at them when I get back.” Offering her hand to Amy who had already removed her shoes Kate just shook her head as the girl climbed into her hand. She knew they wouldn’t let Amy off the island that might be of any use to a conspiracy nut or news hound but she wondered if she could take Sheila into letting her leave with something. Crawling back out “ Kate watched as Amy stretched clearly trying to get her muscles to relax. “ I went ahead and ordered some breakfast I hope you don’t mind.”

“ naa but I was wondering what you had in mind for today.” “ I was hoping you would let me use you as a yo-yo some more then as a kite.” A chuckle came from Amy as she looked up towards Kate “ So hang gliding and bungee jumping? I am going to assume that is what you mean and it sounds like fun. After this though can we do something that is a little slower pace.” “ Sure thing how about after you get your air time we play some bored games. I would offer something else but there isn’t to many things that I can do normally.” Amy gave a nod as she wondered what game she had the best chance of beating Kate at. Even though she was enjoying herself she did want to try something that she would feel a little bit more in control. This thought made her wonder just how guys handled hanging around with Kate. “ I bet you have trouble with some men don’t you?”

“ It depends really normally when they are brought in they are selected carefully enough that they won’t take issue with the fact that well. Physically they are absolutely insignificant compared to me. That can be extremely limited as far as the macho guys goes. After all guys that are use to being able to hold the girl soon learn that doesn’t work with me.” Amy figured this would be the case after all for someone to try to impress Kate with physical strength must be a laughable site. “ Besides most guys who think they are tough really should take a look at some of the soldiers that man this place. I admit they probably can’t bench press as much but as far as combat skills go they are something else.” “ Sound like you enjoy watching them.” “ Watching them nothing I like to practice with them, were do you think this came from.”

Kate proceeded to give her abs a few sharp smacks while Amy got a shocked look on her face. “ Just how do you practice with regular people.” “ Oh well I don’t spar with them or anything there is no way for that I would end up crushing them. I do practice the moves though and exercise routines even though this is mainly a research area they can’t be allowed let their skills or body’s degrade so drills are still a very regular thing. Also they had to be in shape if they are going to compete with me in any games at all.” Amy didn’t bother asking about the games she had a few ideas of her own to what they might be.

The sent of eggs and bacon hit Amy’s nose as she felt herself being lowered. Having been held to high before Amy moved to the edge of Kate’s hand and slipped on her shoes before looking to see what had been made. What she found setting before her was not one but three trays of food as well as one massive serving that she was figured for Kate. Greg for his part was standing in the door way looking quite pleased with his handy work. It was days like these that he really got to test his motivational skills as well as his cooking skills. The men that had been forced to prepare the bulk of the meal of course were resolving that they would never get put on mess hall duty again.

Kate actually began to openly laugh when Greg in his infinite cruelty returned to the kitchen and announced “ Now don’t any of you leave after the ladies are done you are going to need to clean the plates off.” Amy just looked scared as she looked as the massive piles of meat, fruits and waffles that she found setting in front of her. “ Do they really expect me to eat this.” “ Naa that is just a bit of what they prepared for me when I get company they normally just take a bit of my food off and serve it to them. After all it is all cooked in the same over sized pots and friars in the first place.” As Kate began to eat Amy just begin to nibble at her food stopping only to say. “ Well next time you order for me how about keeping it down to 1/10th my body wait.” “ Oh and you expect me to eat it all.” Rolling her eyes Amy just began to pick at her food while Kate’s was quickly vanishing.

Amy had managed to eat her feel by the time Kate had finished though there still was a rather large pile of food left. Pushing it aside Amy just waved her hands “ That is it I am done, now I am going to need some time to let my stomach settle.” Looking at her friend and seeing what was left “You know you shouldn’t be so wasteful.” “ I can’t eat this much I would pop.” “ Well then I guess you wouldn’t mind if I ate it.” “ Nope go right ahead.” Amy leaned back a bit as Kate’s massive hand reaches down using her fingernail she lifted the trays one at a time from the table. Holding them above her head she opened her mouth and simply tipped them over spilling the entire contents into the void.

Amy looked on some what in shock as she had expected Kate to at least swallow. Instead she simply ended up poring the entire contents down her throat without having to chew or so much as swallow. Chuckling at Amy’s shocked look Kate lowered her hand next to her. “ Well ready to go?” Amy simply climbed into Kate’s hand thinking about it for a second she then proceeded to walk out onto Kate’s index finger and set down at the tip of it looking out over the edge. She immediately regretted that she did though as a rush of fear went through out her body. “ You know if you want to look out like that.” Amy didn’t have time to scoot back before Kate’s free hand picked her up and began to adjust her possession.

Amy now found her lower body wrapped within Amy’s fist at least in a sense. It was actually only one of Kate’s fingers that covered her lower body while Kate had been careful to leave her arms free. The fact that there was something wrapped around her now took away a great deal of the fear as she began to look around. Debating on what they could do for a little while Kate made her way over to barracks a group of soldiers having gathered outside had engaged in a basketball game when the girls arrived. Setting down Amy couldn’t tell what was going on until she was placed upon Kate’s massive knee. Looking to wear Kate was facing the soldiers didn’t seem to pay Kate too much mind other then a friendly wave. After spending so much time on the island the had all got some what use to seeing Kate and now regarded her as a very large friend.

There was of course benefits of having Kate watch the game one of them being the soldiers played even harder. This was thanks to the idea that there was now an attractive female watching the show and in their current case two attractive females since Amy was there. The second reason though was all Kate as her massive form helped to block the sun and keep things some what cooler. The draw back came later on though after Kate had chosen which team she was going to support. As the ball was shot it seemed that it was sunk until a massive gust of air slammed into it. Sending it well away from the goal everyone on the team that had just lost their goal slowly turned to see a whistling Kate. Grinning like a jackal Kate chose to play innocent “ Oops sorry I forgot.” Amy just grinned as nothing was said further one couldn’t exactly fowl the other side for giantess intervention.

At least until it happened a few more times by which time Amy was chuckling at her friends antics. While the frustration of the player who now were well within the red was clear on their faces. Seeing that her joke was finally at its end Kate grinned “ Okay I quit honest but can you really blame me for helping the under dogs.” A collective grumble came from the court as well as a bit of laughter. “ Yeah I suppose a handicap won’t hurt us considering who we are playing.” Came from the court this immediately got both annoyed and agreeing responses from the opposing teams.

Kate and Amy remained spectators for the wrest of the game. Which thanks to Kate’s intervention had turned into more of a back yard game following the rule that is there wasn’t blood it wasn’t a fowl. It made things interesting though the girls quit watching the score while they waited for the their stomach to settle. The game was still raging when the girls finally left. “ You know people would hate you at a professional game.” “ Now just why is that.” “ You whistle too much.” Kate just grinned as Amy debated on if they could really fault a fan for whistling or blowing on the ball in general. It would probably be a situation they hadn’t dealt with before so she couldn’t decide for sure though she knew the fans of what ever team Kate was against wouldn’t like it one bit.

The game had given Amy’s stomach time to settle though thanks to this the two ended up making a detour to the wrest room before finally making it to the storage building. The bungee cord was already laying out when they got there the soldiers who kept track of its supplies having over heard their conversation and simply laid it out. Amy didn’t wait for Kate to fasten the rope around her leg this time rather she simply did it herself while Kate tied it around her finger. Amy was about to jump from the side of Kate’s hand when a massive flesh wall got in her way. Kate having blocked her with her free hand “ Wait a second.” Moving her index finger back Kate picked Amy up and placed the smaller girl upon her nail.

Amy quickly realized what Kate had in mind and began protesting right away as she walked towards the edge of the finger “ Oh no you don’t”. Was Amy’s response as she began to climb down the side of Kate finger “ Spoiled sport.” Sticking her tongue out at Kate before jumping off the finger under her own power. Amy was getting over her fear of heights thanks to Kate but there was still no way she was going to let herself be flicked into the air like that. Kate for her part and honored her friends wishes even though she didn’t think of it as a big deal. She had learned that every person saw things differently though and that Amy probably saw things quite differently then she did.

Kate let Amy bounce a few times before finally starting in on the game herself. While she couldn’t perform tricks such as walk the dog considering the fact that Amy wouldn’t spin like a yo-yo, didn’t have the same build as one and they were using a bungee cord not a rope she had developed a few tricks that she could do though. Amy for her part found her perspective of height being played with the entire time as Kate constantly moved her hand or would give the string a slight jerk so that she would go higher then normal. Her falls didn’t ever seem to be a strait drop either as she seemed to constantly be moving at an angle though she wasn’t sure if it was as extreme of one as it appeared to be. Kate constantly adjusting her hand to set her up for another motion made it rather hard to judge.

The girls continued this game until Amy began to suffer from motion sickness. Kate for her part could do it for some time much the same way as some people could play with a yo-yo for hours on end. She knew to stop though when she heard a slight groan from Amy and the girl began to look more then a little sick. Adjusting the finale decent so that Amy actually went above her hand Kate move her hand under the girl the moment she had reached the peak of her climb. Causing her to land safely within Kate’s palm. Realizing were she was Amy had a grin on her face though she had been screaming a decent amount of the time. Trying to stand up her legs gave out from under her causing her to fall flat on her tail. “ Yeah you are going to be dizzy for a bit.” Grinning and laying in Kate’s hand like a drunk Amy lifted the leg that had the rope tied to it towards Kate giving it a slight shake.

Kate was careful to remove the rope recalling when she didn’t have to worry about crushing peoples legs simply by flinching. Her face turned sad for a second when she stopped to consider that a time would come that she wouldn’t be able to do such things at her current growth rate. Sighing and setting the rope upon the ground they had spent a decent amount of time bungee jumping but she figured they could wait a while longer before they went to eat. “ You know Kate I think by the time I leave this place I am going to be sick of bungee jumping.” “ Wouldn’t surprise me that is one thing I hate about having such a limited amount of things to do.” Nodding her head Amy rolled onto her stomach and proceeded to push herself up with her arms.

“ Well we could always play some bored games.” “ Yup but not right now we have some other things to do.” Amy laid back and closed her eyes as Kate began to walk again not wanting to risk being made any sicker. Amy’s eyes were still closed when Kate picked up the hang glider not noticing as Kate didn’t really stop. There was no way she was going to do what she planned on while within the confines of the main structural area of the installation. She needed to get away from the base itself so that she would have some room to roam. After a while Amy picked up on the fact that they had been walking for some time considering how big Kate was opening her eyes and peaking up at her friend. “ Just where we are going?” “ Oh I can’t take you hang glide around here I would end up destroying a few buildings and that wouldn’t go over well at all.”

Nodding her head Amy just relaxed in Kate’s palm once again. Lessening carefully she could make out the difference in Kate’s foot falls as they moved from hitting the reinforced concrete to the grass and sand at the exterior of the main compound and finally she began to move into the brush and other vegetation. “ Hey Kate I was wondering are they any animals around her.” “ Small ones like birds mostly but that is since they can fly back to land.” Kate stopped a second later looking back over her shoulder towards the base they were pretty far away still she worried. “ And you can just forget that I told you that last part.” Amy opened her eyes to see that Kate had a look that was both concerned and some what strict realizing that Kate had just given away some information that she shouldn’t have Amy simply nodded her head.

It wasn’t that Amy was frightened by Kate during that moment though there was a good deal of fear in her when she first noticed Kate’s look. She had come to trust her though over such a short time plus the fact that she had known her for years online. The reason that she was mostly concerned though was that Kate had been. “ So did they all get cleared off?” Returning to the subject at hand Kate returned to normal only a moment later. “ Naa this place isn’t exactly hospitable in the first place that is one reason that the base was built here. You didn’t notice it since you went out so far with me but before I came along most the beach was lined with rock that still applies for the vast majority of the island. It made it hard for boats to land safely and very unpleasant to swim in. “ What happened to the rocks.” Amy heard a massive shock wave as Kate stomped the ground a second later. “ Crushed to powder.”

The walk took longer then what Amy expected but at last Kate stopped well away from any buildings. This was actually kind of unnerving for the girl as she realized that it was time for her lessons to start. Looking at the hang glider for a second “ Now you have done this before right?”. “ Yup now come on get in.” Amy let out a rather long sigh as she walked over to the glider and got herself strapped in. “ Okay ready.” Hit Kate’s ears who then proceeded to lift the glider up. Looking at Amy for a second who seemed more then a little nervous Kate gave the glider a good toss sending it and her friend air born. Amy held back a scream realizing that she was gliding and not falling like before however she had never done such a activity before and thus this didn’t hold true for very long.

Feeling herself take a dip she began to struggle until a gust of wind came up giving her a lift and sending her back into the air. Looking down she realized that she was actually above Kate now though not by much and that the gust of wind had been Kate blowing on the glider to make sure she didn’t crash. This followed suit several times as each time Amy found herself falling Kate would simply blow on the glider and send her back into the air. Recalling what Kate had said about being a kite Amy realized how true this was even though there wasn’t a string attached to her. She might have actually felt safer if there had been one to make sure she didn’t get blown away.

Kate for her part was content with the little game. It tended to give her the same feeling that she imagined others had while simply flying a kite. Unlike them though Kate didn’t have to worry about hers getting stuck in a tree. A good deal of trees were still hit by Kate during this time though as the reason for moving so far away became clear. Kate would have to move quite quickly in order to insure that her friend didn’t fall to far which meant she wasn’t paying too much attention to the surrounding area. Anything that happened to be in the path of her massive foot falls was simply crushed. As Amy spent more time in the air though she found herself getting the hang of gliding. There was no desire in her to do such a activity alone still but at least it gave Kate more time to get a good breath.

Finally able to look down at her massive friend Amy could help herself. “ So you look down at people like this all the time.” Seeing a grin on Kate’s face a rather large gust of air lifted Amy even higher a moment later. “Nope I don’t feel like I am a little bird while I am looking down.” Amy couldn’t really argue with that since even though she was no above Kate it was quite clear how massive the girl was. Thinking about this it made her wonder just how many places one could have Kate stand so that her size wouldn’t be so obvious. They were a few places of course most of witch wouldn’t allow someone to judge her scale against anything.

Amy began to glide lower now about eye level with Kate who now only gave her enough of a boost to lift her above her head every so often. As the too continued a conversation Amy was in a pretty relaxed mood having someone there to help you incase you fell plus being so close to Kate she figured that even if she fell Kate could catch her. The two didn’t expect that nature would decide to play a game of its own as a gust of wind slammed into Amy when she was close to Kate. Kate’s hands had been wresting at her side at the moment considering how long it took one to fall from the height of her head to the ground she had never had a problem with this before. Today would be different though as the moment that Amy was hit put her right above Kate’s cleavage.

Letting out a shock gasped Kate’s hand did move under Amy but they couldn’t reach above her breast as the girl began to fall. A moment later Amy found herself laying on a soft warm surface. Looking around for a few moments as the light came in it didn’t take her long at all to realize that the massive wall of blue white in front of her was Kate’s tube top and that the warm surface she now found herself laying on was Kate’s breast. Both girls turned a bright read considering the others situation. “ A little help here.” Was the only words spoken as Kate extracted Amy from between her breast the girl seeming to be more then a little embarrassed at were she had just found herself. Taking out the hang glider with her other hand Amy had slipped from the harness upon being hit the gust. She had actually bumped into Kate’s nose which had helped in the process a great deal.

“ Well that was interesting what say we head back and get some lunches?” Amy nodded as Kate simply began to walk back to the base in time both girls were chuckling about the event. Thinking for a second Kate grinned “ So Amy what did they feel like.” Kate and Amy both blushed as these words were spoken but continued the conversation “ Oh they felt like large firm breast same as anyone else’s with your figure.” Kate let out a slight chuckle “ Well I am glad that you think so it had actually worried me when I stop to hope that one day I might get to start dating. I mean how could I hope to attract a guy with these monsters if they didn’t at least feel nice.” Amy turned away from Kate who had lightly pressed up on one of her breast. Both girls where blushing a deep red thanks to their conversation.

Upon their return they actually found their meal had already been laid out for them. Kate ended up eating a few sides of beef with a good deal of vegetable mixed together while Amy ended up eating a salad and a steak. Even though nothing was said the fact that there had been food already waiting for them upon the return let the girls knew that their conversation had been over heard. A few of the soldiers had even gone off in the direction to watch the girls playing though they knew to stay well away from Kate when she wasn’t paying attention to wear she was stepping. They all knew that Kate did have greatly increased senses for her size but they also knew that she could indeed slip up having seen events of this happening before. It was simply too much of a risk to get to close to her while she was playing around and not aware of your presence.

“ So you said you had some bored games in mind.” Kate gave a nod as she sipped on some water trying to eat slowly so that Amy would have time to eat her fill. “ Yup they are on my computer of course after all it wouldn’t work out very well if they had to have a bored made for me.” Grinning for a second “ I bet it would be easy to get you one of those miniature bibles.”

[happiest_in_shadows]

“ So what you do around here for fun?” The question took Kate aback a bit as she expected the drill to go on for a while longer. It had shocked her that Amy seemed to adapt so quickly. “ Well that is surprising normally it takes a while for that question to be asked, normally I like to hang out on the beach or serf the web, there are also some soldiers to play with and training activities I can download videos as well.” “ That is right you talked to me on the internet just how did you manage that.” Chuckling for a moment Kate decided to take the next step since Amy seemed to be doing so well, holding her hand up just in front of her. “ I think it would be more fun to show you, come on and climb on.” Amy hesitated for a moment but reasoned if Kate meant to harm her there wasn’t really anything she could do. As she began to climb over the guard real she stopped herself, noticing a hurt look in Kate’s eyes. “ One minute.” The look quickly faded as Amy proceeded to remove her shoes before climbing into Kate’s hand. While Kate didn’t enjoy people wearing there shoes while they stood in her palm she normally would give them some time before asking them to remove them.

The fact that Amy had done it out of her own consideration was quite surprising, making Kate like her all the more. As Amy climbed into Kate’s hand she looked around her, each one of Kate’s fingers were bigger then she was giving her no doubt that she could crush her in a moment. As the fingers closed around her this fear made her shudder for a second, the massive fingers only held her gently making sure she didn’t fall from the dizzying height as Kate turned back towards the wall. Lowering Amy down upon a massive structure she found herself standing on a few steel platforms that appeared to be keyboard keys. “ Dang this thing must have costed a fortune.” “ True but not as much as you think, why don’t you climb down the side and take a look.”

“ Wouldn’t it be easier for you to just pick me up?” “ Well yes it would be, but I don’t want you to think you have to do anything.” Amy grinned for a second, holding her arms up towards Kate, “ I like elevator rides.” This got a rather hearty chuckle from Kate as she lifted her friend once again, this time holding her near the edge of the keyboard. Amy slipped back on her shoes before walking under it, the sides of the thing being completely open. What she found under it was very few electronics as each key was supported by a massive spring and just below each spring wrested a little device. “ What do these things do.” Though Kate couldn’t see what Amy was pointing at she had a pretty good idea of just what it was.

“ Those little suckers detect the motions of the keys within a foot, in then relays the information to the actual computer which uses this projector to work on the screen. “ What projector?” Two fingers ceased Amy a moment later as Kate lifted her up, holding her next to a small device. “ That projector, the computers are in that room over there.” With her free hand Kate proceeded to touch upon the door that housed the computer itself. “ Hehe Sheila was even nice enough to have them take a bunch of the old lab computers and link them all together.” Can I take a look?” “ Sorry but if I was to show you them I.” “ Would have to kill me.” This got a laugh from Kate, “ No not quite, the door is locked though in order to show it to you I would have to rip it out of the wall.”

“ Umm why would they lock the door.” “ Every single door in this place is locked for safety reasons. Every worker must present there id, and sudmet their password at each door in order to better keep track of them. I figure it gets annoying every once in a while, but becomes a mechanical practice after a while.” “ Figure?” Kate got a rather embarrassed grin for a second, well I can’t exactly go into any of the other buildings about it. The main door here did have a lock on it for a long while, but after I forgot myself a few times and opened it with force well they eventually just left it unlocked. Besides anyone else would need to activate the door opener if they wanted to get it open.”

The whole time the conversation had been going on, Amy had been wondering around the massive keyboard and a few other areas of the room. Working her way over to Kate, she finally found herself standing right next to the Titaness’s leg. “ Kate I have a question.” “ Another one?” Amy seemed to have relaxed quite a bit in a very short time frame and actually laughed a bit, “ Well alright, but I was just wondering why was I brought here.” “ Oh is that all, it is simple really. General Steel and the others decided that it would be safe to bring you in and let you meet me in person. After all it isn’t like I could just get up and go meet you at your home. Well I could but they are quite a few people in high positions that wouldn’t appreciate that in the least.

“ You’re a prisoner here?” David smacked his face as he heard the words come over the intercom that was within the room. While they didn’t always ease drop on Kate’s conversations, they did always when it came to her meeting someone for the very first time. “ Oh no, this is my home. It is just, well I don’t think I would do very good in the outside world right now. You see I am still growing and it isn’t sure when I am going to stop. Plus you can’t imagine the destruction I caused when I was first getting use to my sudden size increase. If I had tried to pick you up a few years ago, well you would have found yourself pinched in two most likely.”

David breathed a sigh of relief upon Kate’s response to Amy’s comment. Picking up a note pad he made a note beside Amy’s name. While he had been recording mostly positive reactions from her, that last comment did get her a black mark. Sensing that Amy had her fill of questions for now, Kate took the moment to get some of her own answered. “ Hey Amy I know we talked online, but I was wondering have you ever done anything traveling?” Continuing to walk around Amy seemed quite content to just look around for now, though she had the since of mind to answer the question. “ Well I have been to the beach before, I didn’t particularly like the one we went to. There was littler all over the place and I was concerned with stepping on some broken glass.”

“ Well that is a disappointing way to spend your vacation.” Hehe Yeah it was pretty frustrating but that is what happens when you take the cheapest option there is.” Kate continued to watch Amy as the girl wondered about her room seeming to take everything in. It wasn’t necessary for them to keep a conversation going the entire time, Kate was just glad that she had some company that wasn’t a military personal. Though most of the scientist insisted that they weren’t part of the army, Kate couldn’t really agree with that. Amy for her part was fighting the erg to look at Kate herself or at least to stare at her. The room had enough interesting things in it, as she noted the remodeling job that had been done in it. As well as a few of the items that were set up threw out it, probably for Kate’s amusement.

Feeling her foot hit something Kate nearly feel over as she finds the object Kate had been playing with when she walked in. Trying to pick up one of the massive links of the chain, it had looked so small when Kate had held it in her hands. Now she realized that it was probably used to anchor a battle ship in the past. This helped to bring things home to her, as she began to compare Kate to some other things that she once considered large. Finally pulling herself out of her shocked state, “ So what do you do for fun when you have company?” Placing her hand down next to Amy, “ Come on and I will show you.” Removing her shoes Amy climbed into Kate’s hand a second later.

Despite setting in her hand and now having a better idea of just how big Kate was. Opening the door, Kate crawled out being careful to keep the hand that held Amy steady. Upon making her way outside, she began to stand up. Looking down at Amy she noticed as the girl made her way to the edge of her hand. “ Careful now it is a long way down.” Amy didn’t say anything as she made her way to the edge, looking strait down a slight eep came from her as she quickly moved back into the center of Kate’s hand, actually falling down once she reached it. Chuckling for a moment, “ Oh don’t worry Amy I have had to catch people before, and besides I wouldn’t let you fall. Well lets play it on the safe side and don’t do anything silly like jump but you can look around.

“ No that is okay, heights really aren’t my thing.” “ Oh then you best be steading yourself for what is coming next.” Amy gave Kate a rather strange look as she heard these words, “ Why what are you planning?” As Kate smiled at Amy, Amy noticed the smile had changed, while the others had been disarming this one was kind of like the cat that had ate the canary.

The two arrived just outside of a wear house structure a short while later. A few soldiers standing just outside the door looking around for nothing in particular. Though Kate was a very nice site to look at and quite a remarkable one they were a few soldiers who had gotten use to seeing her, having spent so much time on the island. “ Hey guys would you mind bringing me out the cord.” “ Sure sure.” Came the half asleep reply, guard duty on the island was something that no one seemed to worry to much about security provided you were within the confines of the island. After all ever since the installation had been set up there hadn’t been anyone sneak in, or in a few cases sneak out.

“ Just what is the cord?” Came from Amy as she set down in Kate’s hand, the worried expression on her face grew more so when Kate didn’t answer. “ Here you go.” Reached Amy’s ears a few moments later, as Kate bent down and retrieved the item. Amy tried to see just what it was but Kate had closed her hand apparently not wanting her to see just what it was. Amy found herself on top of the storage structure a second later as Kate freed upon her hands. Amy could see what the cord was now as Kate placed one end around her finger and tightened it, realizing what the idea was. “ Oh no you don’t, no way.” Chuckling Kate bent down instead of picking up her friend again, “ Come on it will be fun.” “ No.” “ Please.” “No.” “Please.” “ Just give it a try, how do you know if you will enjoy something if you don’t at least try it once.”

“ Alright but be careful.” Amy had after all talked to Kate online and convinced Kate to do a few things that she didn’t want to do. Now she figured this would balance things out as she climbed into Kate’s hand and was given the restraint meant for her leg. Placing the item on, she wondered how far it would go as Kate took a step back from the building. “ Read?” “ No but go ahead.” Amy had expected Kate to drop her but instead she found herself flying up into the air, as Kate gave her a light toss. Her instincts taken over she began to scream at the top of her lunges particularly when she began to fall instead of rise and Kate moved her hand.

A cord ran out of length before it got down to Kate’s waste though only being a forty foot cord. Sealing back up towards Kate’s palm Amy landed in the center as Kate moved her hand under the girl the moment the upward motion of the rope ended and she began to fall again. As Amy set in Kate’s hand she could feel her heart trying to escape from her chest. “ Now this time how about we try to do without the screaming?” Amy slowly nodded her head as she took in a few gasp of air, now that she was settled down she actually thought the trip had been a bit fun though extremely scary. This time she found herself simply dropped from Kate’s hand the moment the cord ran out and she expected to be caught again she was surprised when she wasn’t. Rather Kate gave her hand something of a jerk so that the rope had even more upward energy.

The game continued for some time long after most jumps would have ended Amy found herself still flying high. The fear had passed since she started since unlike most jumps this one had gone on for an exceptionally long time. Amy had figured Kate had done this before, especially when she found herself being put threw a few more extreme stunts. It was a good forty minutes before Kate halted the ride, Amy once again landing in her hand. As the girl stood up to untie the band from her leg she promptly fell over. Getting a chuckle from Kate who managed to remove the strap from the much smaller girls leg. “ Yeah you are going to be dizzy for a little bit.”

As Amy looked around at the moving world, she laid face down upon Kate’s hand and covered her head as she didn’t want to see everything move. Something warm, soft and huge got her attention a second later as Kate closed her hand around her. The change in environment was actually welcomed as it helped her stomach to settle down. As she laid there she could tell that Kate was moving once again. “ Here you go.” Amy found herself back in the light as Kate lowered her to the ground. Taking a moment to look around she noticed herself standing on a balcony. “ General Steel wanted to speak to you after we had a little while to talk.” Stretching for a moment, “ Besides it is getting late and I am tired.” As Amy looked up she noticed the sun as going down, she hadn’t noticed how late it was.

“ I guess between all the talking we did and the trip out here most of the day is gone.” Amy gave a slight nod, “ Yeah and I bet Sheila will want to spend the wrest of the day talking to you. I will see you later Amy.” As Kate gave her friend a slight wave Amy let out a long sigh, she had managed to go along with everything that happened today but as Kate walked away she had to wonder if everything was real or if she was just having a very strange dream. A strong presence got her attention as she turned around to see Sheila stepping out on the balcony. “ So General Steel what do you want to talk about.” Walking over next to her, Amy found a check wresting in her hand a second later.

“ Compensation pay for the time you spent here today, also we need to talk about a few things.” Holding the check out to Sheila, “ The talking is alright but I don’t need a check for visiting a friend.” “ Keep it trust me, you will see why soon.” Sheila found herself smiling at the girls gesture to return the check as they walked back into the building. Taking her seat behind a desk, Sheila leaned over as she considered how to start. “ We can’t be flying people in and out every day, well except for employees but even if we made you one I doubt you would enjoy it a great deal. However, Kate needs company from those that aren’t actually working for the government.”

Amy nodded her head though she didn’t really know how to respond to the statement. “ So I was wondering if you wouldn’t mind taken extended time periods here. It would give Kate some company and we are willing to compensate you for the time you would lose.” “ You mean I would get paid for just hanging around with a friend?” “ Yes that is right, though you must keep in mind that Kate isn’t a normal girl. We really liked that you were willing to say no to her when you didn’t want to do something, though she still got you to cave in. Quite a few people we have brought in have simply been to scared to argue with her. This isn’t good for Kate’s mental health so we would like you to come back and visit.”

As Amy took time to consider what she had just been told one question came to mind. “ Just how long are we talking about and I am not allowed to tell anyone about this am I?” Sheila chuckled for a second, “ Heaven no you aren’t allowed to tell anyone about Kate for even this installation. As for the amount of time well we will have to iron out the details, plus they are other factors such as how long it takes you to get tired of Kate’s games. Poor girl has so little company that she tends to be smothering when a guest arrives, keeping them up all night, until she finally noticed your eyes turning red from lack of sleep.”

Chuckling Amy leaned back, “ Well I am not really sure all this is actually happening yet so that would be great. I am off from college now and had planned on getting a summer job after all. “ Well then, let’s get you signed up and the details worked out.” “ I thought I wasn’t going to be an employee.” “ You’re not going to be one, but I still have a load of legal papers for you to sine and then I have to take you to talk to the bases counselor and get a cat scan.” The last one got a funny look from Amy, “ A cat scan are you serious?” Sheila just chuckled, “ Of course I am serious, we can’t have you going around with a unstable mental condition after all you have seen.” A loud thump went threw out the room as Sheila produced a large pile of papers from within a drawer of her desk.

“ Now you get to reading threw and feeling out those papers so that we can make sure everything is done properly.” As Amy looked at what must be sixty pages of legal documents she felt sick at her stomach. Normally she would have just signed them but considering were she was she felt a true need to read threw them and make sure they were not any hidden agenda. Two hours later Amy looked up at Sheila who for her part was reviewing the papers as they were finished and working on what appeared to be her own paper work, though in Sheila’s case it was less then a fourth of what Amy had to feel out. Finally finished she let out a long sigh which caused Sheila to look up. “ Oh good you are done, those papers gave you permission to feel out these papers.” As Sheila began to produce an even bigger stack of papers, the old woman burst out laughing at the look on Amy’s face.

“ Just kidding, though we do need to plan out your visiting hours or at least the planned hours everything is subject to change.” “ Would you mind if I got some sleep beforehand?” Thinking for a second, “ Tell you what I will have you taken home them tomorrow you should pack some things and plan for about a weeks stay. Don’t forget some swim wear Kate loves to spend time on the beach, plus when you get back you can be more carefully briefed on the dos and don’ts while you are here.” “ Do and don’ts?” “ Of course you are on an army base my dear they are plenty of places that you aren’t allowed to go and things you aren’t allowed to do.” “ What about Kate? “ ” Well Kate is the main project here, but they are several others. Kate is given pretty much free roam since most things are done under ground and well, keeping her caged up just isn’t practical. It wouldn’t do her mental condition any good and well there just isn’t any structure that could do it. Now lets get you home.” Amy set back in her seat as Sheila picked up a telephone and called a few soldiers up to take her home. A short while later Amy was on her way home, wondering if she would be able to believe any of this when she woke up in the morning.

Amy woke to the sound of someone knocking on her door, it was early morning and she wondered who it could be. When she opened the door she was greeted by a rather large man dressed in a military uniform. “ Good morning Miss Williams, so are you ready for your vacation?” Came from David’s mouth whom unknown to her had been watching over her house all night. It was one of the things they did after someone first met Kate to make sure they didn’t try to inform anyone right away. “ Wha hu… oh lord.” A look of recognition appeared in Amy’s eyes as she remembered the previous day and everything that happened. She still have trouble believing it had all happened, that was one reason David found himself standing outside her door.

He did check up on her as his primary task, the secondary task though was to make sure people realized that it wasn’t a dream. As Amy stepped back, he remained in his position at the front of the door waiting to be invited in. Amy realized this after about five minutes, it actually made her feel a bit more relaxed as it clearly showed he had no intention of forcing his way in or anything else. “ Please come in, I need a little while to get ready.” “ Of course.” Finally stepping into the house, David chose a seat closest to the door as Amy rushed back into her room. He could hear her opening up drawers and stuffing things into them. Trying to plan a weeks vacation normally took quite some time, so she was feeling a bit rushed. Then again this was a vacation that she was getting paid to go on.

There was also a side of her that wanted to go back to make sure she wasn’t going crazy. For his part David took the time too more carefully look around Amy’s apartment and make a more complete mental profile on her. So far he only saw a few things that he didn’t care for but nothing that was bad. She was a bit messy he noticed, as neatness was normally associated with females the various articles of clothing she had out where few but they did catch his eye. Then again this was a college student so he had to cut her a little slack thanks to that. “ Just were am I going to be staying do you people have some kind of apartment set up?” “ Yes, you will be staying either in the room we have built into Kate’s complex or near it. We will issue a security card giving you access to those areas.”

As Amy came out carrying her luggage, David was quick to help her with it. He could tell right away she had packed more then what she needed. “ I take it you remembered a swim suit?” Amy quickly nodded in the affirmative, letting out a bit of a sigh and a huff. He began to carry the heavy bags out to the hummer that set waiting for the two of them. Placing the luggage carefully in the back, it was pretty common that most people reacted this way. Over packing like their wouldn’t be a washing machine or anything on hand. In truth he knew everything they needed would be provided for. It kind of made him envious, get to have fun with Kate and get paid for doing it.

“ Do people normally get asked back so soon.” Reached David’s ears as he drove towards the air port. “ Well Yes they do, it might seem odd but the tendency for people to right things off with a dream actually requires us to rush and take them back. That is also why a week at least is normally spent, it gives people more time to accept everything, quit thinking it is a dream and do all their screaming.” “ Screaming?” David just grinned for a second, “ Oh I can about promise in a few days you are going to turn pale white, set down and scream at the top of your lunges. Right now your still in a state of shock though, once everything has time to hit you I am sure you will be surprised at your reaction.

Amy for her part wasn’t sure of this, but David spoke with such a air of assurance that she had no doubt he had seen it from most people. Grinning she figured she would just have to prove him wrong, though even while riding she was still debating if this was really happening or not. It was a helicopter that they took back to the island, once again she found herself bard from looking out the windows until they were far enough away from any land that she might be able to guess at the location. This time upon arrival though she saw that Kate and a small speck upon her shoulder was waiting for her. Kate for her part was glad that she could wait for Amy at the helicopter platform. Sheila was with her of course, standing on Kate’s shoulder, her hand grasping one strand of Kate’s hair.

The helicopter stopped its decent early as Amy felt that it had landed on something though it wasn’t near the ground. As the pilot shut of the engin Amy peeked her head at the door to find that Kate had simple placed her hand under it and taken hold. “ Saves time.” Kate’s free hand grasped the helicopter as she slowly bent down and placed it on the ground, Sheila was already walking across Kate’s arm towards Amy at this point though. It looked awkward to say the least for Kate as she was forced to maintain a nearly perfectly strait arm but she didn’t seem to find and she found Sheila didn’t seem to have the least bit of her of falling. Amy noticed something about Sheila though as she stepped into Kate’s hand. The woman was dressed in a more relaxed manor then the last time and was lacking any shoes.

Amy quickly realized why and proceeded to remove her own, “ Sorry Amy.” “ Alright.” Came from the massive girl as she began to walk away from the aircraft landing area and into some more open space. “ Now Amy just were would you like to spend your stay, we have a nice spot near the edge of the island but there is also an area set up within Kate bedding area.” Sheila would have liked to said Kate’s room but she knew the truth as well as anyone it wasn’t even high enough for Kate to stand up in thus was more like a really big tent. “ I think I will just stick with Kate, I might be to tempted to wonder around other wise… Do you snore?” Kate began to chuckle at Amy’s question only a moment later. “ If I snored then it wouldn’t matter where you were you wouldn’t be getting any sleep.

“ Oh peace we forgot your luggage.” Sheila proceeded to pull a phone from her pocket and make a call while Amy was left giving Kate and Sheila an odd look. “ Sheila doesn’t like to cuss so instead she uses peace in place of certain words.” “ Why peace.” “ Because every time peace last for too long the army gets its budget cut.” Came from the woman before Kate could answer as she phoned in just where to bring the items. A short while later and both woman were putting back on their shoes just outside of the structure that served as Kate’s living area. Guiding Amy inside, Sheila pulled a card from her pocket upon coming to a door and handed it to Amy. “ Place you finger on the clear panel then insert the card into the slot. It will do a quick finger print and dna read before opening up. Your things should be here before too long, and now if you would excuse me I am going to be off. I have to show some of the new comers who is queen of the diamond mound around here.” “ Diamond mound?” “ Baseball diamond, I am the best pitched around next to Kate and we quit letting her play once she topped twelve feet.” A blast of air hit the two of them as Kate snorted, “ Sore losers.”

Upon leaving Amy turned to Kate, “ Well I guess since they are around here so often they have to do something for fun.” “ You might be surprised with what they are willing to do. After all each person here might be very well trained but everyone of us is just human. So they have to be at least a few recreational activities to help keep every from going nuts. Speaking of which, what do you want to do today.” Amy nearly feel back as Kate leaned in closer to her, the action of such a massive form moving towards her shocking her so that she began to fall backwards. A finger caught her before she could even reach the guard rail though, as she noticed Kate’s hand under the walk way or at least a very small part of it. At first glance she had thought it was Kate’s ring finger upon noticing that it was her pinky she slowly began to turn around.

It was moments like these when people tended to realize just how massive Kate really was. Despite being held that was such as over whelming experience it had nearly not registered with the brain it was just simple too strange. Amy seemed to see the hand for the first time now and it was taking her a little while to adjust. “ You really are huge.” Kate didn’t say anything just grinned as her friend stated the obvious. She was use to people reacting like this, “ Oh if you think I am big now you just wait until you see me a year from now. After all I am still growing.” Amy was about to press the issue more when she changed her mind. She was having enough time accept everything as is there wasn’t any need to press things any further.

A loud beep interrupted the conversation as a com built into the door came on. “ Hey Kate this is David mind if I come in I have Amy’s stuff.” “ Sure come on in.” A moment later the door swung open and David picked up the suit case he had set down to free up his arm. Walking pass the girls it was clear that he had been with Kate for a exceptionally long time as he didn’t even seem to notice anything strange. No true look of aw or anything, only a friend smile to the both of them as he made his way to Amy’s room for the next week. Inserting his own security card he placed the items within the center of the room that Amy had yet to see before leaving.

“Hey Amy how about we go to the beach for a while, after all you said the last vacation you went on you had to worry about getting your feet cut up. Well despite them testing out to contraptions I can about guarantee the beach is clean, well maybe not clear but with me walking around it all the time everything is buried so deep that you don’t have to worry about it or has been cleaned up.”

“Alright, just let me put on a swim suit.” “ Err Amy I don’t exactly have a small room to slip into so wait until I tap the door a few times before you come out. It is probably going to take me a bit longer to get dressed then you are.” Looking around the area for a moment, Amy hadn’t stopped to consider that if Kate wanted to change her close in privacy it would indeed require her to remain within the area. “ Sure thing.” As Kate slipped her card into the small device at the side of the door she was a bit shocked by what she found inside. Walking in the room was huge by most respects. It made her wonder just what it had been before hand, walking over to her luggage, David had been nice enough to bring it into the room just not enough to un pack everything. She could take care of that later, as she began to search through her stuff she could hear movement outside the door as Kate fidgeted about. Finding the three bathing suits she had brought along with her. Kate brought, choosing a solid white one, the top lacking any shoulder support.

Rather it was a simple strap that went across the chest and around the back. Amy like this one as it tended to show of her figure, though tiny many found it to be quite pleasing to look upon. Kate for her part had been slipping on a similar outfit though hers seemed to be even smaller having been made for her at a smaller size. It was now getting some what tight and she was beginning to wonder how long it would be before a new one arrived. Kate’s was a mixture of blue and white while they were yellow letters on the side. The lettering was the range at which the clothing was meant to fit her. Kate had actually be kind of shock when she found out that all one had to do in order to get a rough estimate at her breast and hip size was only to look at her clothing.

She had gotten use to it though, finally managing to get herself clothed the top was never really a problem. The bottom peace was another story as she had to lay on her back and extend her legs above her. This was always an issue as she needs enough room to scoot her close up and other as well as down and under but she always had to be careful not to kick the roof out. She could remember the days when she could fit into the structure and walk around freely. Though it was a while back and she had learned to deal with her new size she found herself longing for those days every once in a while. Extending her hand she carefully gave the door a few taps with her massive finger. Amy was putting away her things when she heard the door being knocked on, retrieving her sun tan oil from one of her bags she made her way outside.

“ Ready to go?” Came from Kate as the girl exited the room, holding her hand out for her. Amy didn’t have to stop to remove her shoes this time as she climbed into her massive hand. “ So what is planned for today?” “ Well as far as beach activities, I was wondering if you would like to help me out with building a sand castle. After that I was hoping that we could grab something to eat and spend the wrest of the day being lazy and talking.” “ Sounds good, this time I won’t be used as a yo-yo.” Kate chuckled at this, pushing the door open and crawling outside. The sun was high in the sky despite David picking her up early in the morning. Looking up for a moment, Amy noticed something about Kate as she saw her take in a massive breath of air.

She didn’t see Kate really take in much air very often, and Kate had very little of what some might consider a tan despite everyone telling her that she spent a lot of time on the beach. Amy started to ask Kate about this but chose not to. She didn’t like to be thought of as nosey and Kate might view to many questions as intruding in on her personal space. As Kate began to walk Amy felt the win rushing by. Scooting her way to the edge of Kate’s fingers Amy looked over the edge towards the ground below. It still made her nervous but she noticed it didn’t seem as bad, Kate’s game the other day must had helped her adapt to heights more.

A shock went through out the area as Kate twitched her fingers. Bouncing Kate up into the air and back into the center of her palm. Amy let out a scream as she felt herself go air born. The landing wasn’t painful though and actually kind of fun as she heard Kate chuckling. “ Hey what was that for?” Kate grinned, “ Shouldn’t stand so close to the edge, it is pretty long fall.” “ I thought you could catch me if you dropped me.” “ Oh I could catch you very easily, I just needed an excuse is all.” Amy gave Kate’s hand a slight punch both the girls laughing a bit. Upon their arrival to the beach, Kate slowly eased herself down before setting Amy upon her massive thigh. “ Not going to put me on the ground?” Came from Amy as she noticed her new surroundings, “ You might want to put on your sun tan oil before that, besides a tinder foot like you will probably need some shade.”

Looking at her feet, Amy didn’t live near a beach so the hot sand would end up giving her trouble. Taking Kate’s advice she began to put on some sun tan lotion while remaining on Kate’s massive thigh. As she did this she noticed that she was standing in some shade, wondering just what was going on. Amy slowly looked up and blushed a bright crimson when she realized what was the source of the shade. Seemingly without realizing it Kate had placed Amy within the shadow of her massive chest. A loud crunch got her attention as she saw Kate’s hand dig into the earth. It was actually some what scary for Amy as she noticed Kate pick up a massive about of not only sand but the harder earth that remained under it. Seeming to think for a moment, Kate dumped the hand full on the ground before she began to dig.

A few moments later, Kate had exposed enough of the solid rock below the beach to begin her work. Amy slowly put on her lotion as she noticed Kate begin working on a sand castle in a way she hadn’t expected. Instead of requiring water to hold the sand together instead she simply squeezed the sand together. Compressing it to the point that it seemed to become stone, “ May I have a look?” Came from Amy as she pointed towards the wall Kate had began her work on. “ Sure, you are going to help me out after all.” Picking Amy up between her fingers, it was an odd feeling for Amy as Kate had carried her open palm nearly every time.

The restriction of being held between two fingers, had a rather negative affect. It made her feel restrained and helpless, thankfully it was a very short trip and she found herself once again on solid ground. Walking over to the wall as Kate continued her work. Amy gave it a few good taps to see just how solid it was. It felt as if she was hitting a very thick wall of concrete. “ Now just how am I supposed to help you with this?” “ I built you supervise once I begin work on the interior areas. I want you to move about, so I can compare the scale to you and make sure I am not making it too big or too small. Also if you have any ideas let me know. Oh and they are the finger details that I can’t really take care of.” “ Hmm well I doubt I can help with the details considering how solid you are making everything.”

Kate just chuckled, as Amy watched. Having done this before Kate had learned early on that most people were content to watch and wonder around. As she found Amy doing that right now, the girl was watching as Kate compressed the sand into the wall and used her finger nails to carve at the finger details. It became very clear to her that Kate had done this before, as the walls provided some shade Amy was able to walk around the castle relatively with consideration of the sun.

Kate lost site of Amy though once she began work on the interior of the sand castle. As she had to build each floor one at a time, Amy found herself exploring the lower floors extinguishing Kate’s hope of using her for a guide line for the scale of the castle. Amy was exploring the third floor when she heard Kate’s voice, “ Hey Amy I hope you don’t mind but I am getting kind of hungry, how about we go and see what the mess hall as cooked up.” Amy had found herself so interested in enjoying and watching such a massive structure form around her that she hadn’t been paying attention to her hunger. Now she realizing that it must have been a while since she last ate her stomach was quick to confirm this as she felt it rumble a bit. “ Sure thing.’ Came from her as she walked towards one of the windows.

She was surprised to find Kate’s hand was already waiting for her as if Kate could tell were she had been the whole time. Climbing into the hand, Amy felt a rush as Kate stood up and begin to walk towards the mess hall. “ Hey Kate, if you build things like that often why isn’t the beach covered with them?” “ I am only allowed to build so many, I will have to tear the one I am working on right now, down eventually. Though I figure I can at least finish building it before I have to. So do you like my work?” Amy grinned, “ Very much though you have a rather unique style of building. I doubt many people could get the sand to stay together simply by squeezing it.”

“ Oh are you saying that I use an unfair method.” Amy felt the ground tilt beneath her as Kate spoke. Noticing a slight chuckle from Kate, “ Oh no, not unfair it is just that you are the only person that can do it and your not playing by the same rules as everyone else.” Kate’s had tilted just a bit more, “ Oh yeah sure and just wear am I suppose to get the same amount of fine sand you use.” “ Well it is true that the laws of physics makes it quite hard for you to build with normal methods.” Amy felt Kate’s hand straiten out a bit a second later, chuckling to herself she wasn’t really concerned that Kate would drop her. They had talked to each other online for quite some time after all. Even though this was their first face to face meeting so far Amy still felt she could trust Kate.

Upon arriving at the mess hall, Kate took her usual spot at the back of the building so not to block any soldiers from coming it. Placing her hand next to a table, Amy climbed out and took her seat wondering just what she was suppose to do. A few moments later a soldier came out wearing a cook’s apron, “ Alright ladies, today we have pasta, chicken or cow so which will it be.” Amy looked confused at the generalization for a moment, “ You can order anything about it made from one of those animals, unlike me. I can only order one of the three and well it comes whole and in more then one serving.” Things seemed to clear up as Amy considered what it would take to feed Kate and how little bones would matter to her. It would be more practical for them to just cook a couple sides of beef for her or a whole bunch of chickens.

“ Can I get a hamburger.” “ Sure thing.” Came from the chef as he headed back inside without asking anymore questions. “ If you want anything to drink other then water you sort of have to go to the vending machines.” Looking around for a second, Amy noticed that Kate was pointing inside of the building. She was about to get up and go inside when she realized that she hadn’t brought any money with her. It was still in her room as she had worn her bathing suit, shrugging her shoulders water would just have to do for now she figured.

It was some time later when the food began to arrive, first Amy’s burger and fries and then a few large sides of beef began to brought out for Kate. Each slab of meat was as big as Amy and was actually being willed out. The girls had found themselves talking while they waited on the food even with that distraction though Amy could tell it had take quite some time. She had to figure it was probably Kate’s meal that took so long to cook. Tomorrow she wondered if she could just get Kate to order ahead so that neither of them would have to set around so long. From the look of Kate’s face though it seemed that she was use to waiting for things to get finished.

A hand reaching down and picking up one of the sides of beef took Amy by surprise as she compared it to the meet. Watching Kate eat for a moment she had to turn her head away from the site. It wasn’t that Kate had bad manners, Amy just had trouble coping with the fact that each side of beef was bigger then she was and it seemed complete insignificant to Kate. Choosing to focus on her own meal for the time being it surprised Amy when Kate announced that she was done before she had finished off her fries. “ Surely your not done already, I mean there wasn’t hardly any compared to you.” Kate grinned for a second, “ I eat far less then you might imagine, though I could easily handle more I don’t actually need it so why waste food?”

Amy looked on for a moment, considering how small the meal had been compared to Kate she had to wonder how the girl kept from starving. “ I get energy from other sources besides food anyway and my body is a lot more efficient then yours so comparatively I eat far less then you do. “ Hmm like what other sources?” “ That question is going to have to wait until later to answer, it might sound odd but they are quite a few things that I am not permitted to talk about.” Amy shrugged for a moment when she felt her stomach grumble a bit, the conversation had slowed down her eating which gave her stomach time to settle and let her know how much she had finished.

She had been so nervous while talking to Kate, that she didn’t stop to think. Having now thoroughly over stuffed herself she slowly set the food down. “ Sorry ladies I almost forgot.” Came from behind them as a large glass of water was set down in front of Amy, Kate’s drink was prepared some what differently as Amy noticed a large container having its top removed. It had been setting beside the building the entire time Amy had wondered what it was used for. She now knew as a few bags of ice were poured into it, and a valve was opened letting some water rush in. Picking the entire thing it, it looked like a kid’s cup compared to Kate as she drained the entire thing. Amy on the other had nearly lost her entire lunch when she looked at her water. She doubted she could fit anything else inside of herself in her current state. Kate noticing this let out a slight laugh as she refilled the container and down some more water.

A dozen fills ups later and Kate was finished, while Amy looked like she was about to throw up having to set around the food while her stomach was so full. “ Shall we go?” Came from above as she noticed Kate’s hand reaching down for her. “ I don’t think I can move.” “ Well how about you just let me pick you up?” Amy nodded ever so slowly, “ Just be careful I feel sick.” “ You little people can be such gluttons, over stuffing yourself like that.” Kate was careful to move Amy slowly as it seemed like a rapid movement of any type would unsettle her. Standing up she had planned on going back to the beach but now with Amy in the state she was it seemed that it would be best to head back to her room.

Amy felt a bit better the moment the cool air rushed over her, despite Kate’s living area being huge it actually had its climate control. Though it did take a while to circulate threw out it, the structure was so heavily insulated that once it got to a certain stage it pretty much stayed there on its own unless of course one of the doors were opened. Kate moved slowly inside avoiding shaking Amy who seemed grateful for the attention. As she slipped herself inside she shut the massive doors behind her. Laying down within the center of the room, she slowly lowered Amy onto the plain of her stomach. This shocked Amy for a moment, though just for a second as she felt the skin beneath her.

Kate tended to enjoy laying like this as it gave her reassurance that her friends were safe. As she didn’t have to worry about them wondering around and accidently getting themselves crushed. Amy for her part found Kate stomach to be surprisingly firm as she seemed to notice for the first time all of Kate looked like it was strong despite her size. They were clear signs of muscles when Kate moved her arms as her biceps often let themselves be known. Her abs were clearly noticeable and Kate lets looked like a swimmers or perhaps the legs of a female villain in a movie. The type that would wrap them around some man and squeeze the air from them. A thought got a laugh from Amy despite her feeling sick. “ You know normal sized or not, unless a guy favored strong girls I doubt they would like you.” This got a laugh from Kate as well much to Amy’s protest as she found herself getting motion sick.

Kate’s laughter bouncing her into the air, until her hand came up under Amy. Kate still chuckling held the girl for some time before setting her back down after her laughter had time to stop. Amy found herself once again laying down as the movement had brought back her sickness in full swing. “ Sorry about that Amy, but yeah I have been told that before. I am surprised you noticed so soon though, most people don’t tend to notice my body structure until later surprising enough. Well they don’t seem to notice all of it at least.” Kate took a moment to press her hands to her chest for a second, that being one of the areas people notice almost right away. “ Every gets to wrapped up in my size to notice to many details though.”

A slight laugh from Amy, “ Well I kind of wish I had your size as well.” Kate was able to keep her laughter to a giggle this time as she new right away Amy wasn’t referring to her height. As a very well endowed female Kate was quite pleased with the size of her bust. Though she had actually had to develop a good deal of pride in her entire body. As her clothing was limited and almost always short in comparison to herself, it was rather hard for her to keep her body concealed is not impossible. This was the reason she had developed the philosophy that since she has to show it off, then she might as well be proud of it. Nearly the entire male population of the base seemed to agree whole heartedly with this philosophy of hers, especially the ones that had to remain on extended stays and didn’t have a family.

“ I wouldn’t mind it if I could get a nice tan like you though.” Came from Kate as she brushed her finger against Amy for a second. Leaning forward a bit so to see around the massive hills of Kate’s breast. “ You mean you can’t tan?” “ Nope I can’t tan anymore then what I already have, even then this is more of something might body took upon itself to do rather then the sun as able to do. “ Why can’t you get a tan, I was actually wondering about that while we were on the beach.” Kate seemed to think a few moments before answering, “ I absorb radiation and my body converts it to energy. Well I don’t absorb every type or all of it but I absorb a great deal. That is the reason that I don’t have to each near as much as you might expect. I get my energy from other sources.” Amy grinned, “ Hey I thought that was one of the things you couldn’t tell me about.” “ Meah changed my mind, you already know about me after all. I doubt knowing the reason I don’t have to eat as much as normal is going to matter.”

An itch got Amy’s attention as she began to scratch her elbow she noticed the salt from the water on her skin. Sighing she stood up, “ Well I need to get washed up, mind setting me up in my room.” Kate didn’t bother to ask to pick up Amy this time as the girl seemed to have given her permission. Picking her up between her fingers, Kate often found herself thinking how delicate humans seemed during this time. Kate couldn’t help but take a moment to muse on this subject, Amy seemed like such a delicate little doll that was quickly becoming more precious to her then she had been. As they got to know each other Kate’s affection tended to grow, and since she and Amy got along it helped it even more.

Amy didn’t complain about the slow down in her trip, she just waited patiently until she found herself standing outside of her room. “ Hey Amy I am going to go and get cleaned up myself. I will be outside, don’t worry you will be able to find me.” Amy gave a nod and watched Kate make her way from the room. Outside a few of the soldiers who worked as the firemen were lazing around. Noticing Kate walking their way in her bikini each one of them grinned. “ Hi fellows, mine giving me a cleaning?” “ Sure thing pretty lady.” Came from below as they quickly rushed over to the tower that was used for that purpose. Making their way to the mid section, the tower was one of the few things around that was taller then Kate. This helped in getting her clear though.

The soldiers stopped before they began to make their way up it themselves. Each one braced themselves as they began a game of rock scissors paper to decide who would get watch station. When the decision was decided one of them stepped forward, “ Full bath of just a rinse?” “ Oh you should know that, just a rinse since when have I taken a full bath with everyone wondering around?” The group let out a long disappointed sigh, they tended to really like it when Kate went for the full bath, but it was true that would have to wait for a while. Still it was fun washing her off anyway, as each one took up their station upon the tower. Two of the favorite areas were just about level with Kate’s crotch region as well as with her breast. These were the ones that were often played for.

As each one manned their stations, several jets of water slammed into Kate that would have normally stripped bark from trees. It didn’t do anything to Kate other then clean her off though as she let them clean her off. She let out a slight giggle as some of them angled the anger in an attempt to scoot her clothing further down. The material was to tight for that thanks to it having been a while since she got new clothes, “ If you are going to do that, you should talk to the supply boys and ask them where my new clothes are.” Some of troops laughed, while a few of them blushed.

Steven who had actually won the right to get Kate’s crotch area was one that found himself blushing. A fact that didn’t escape from Kate as she slowly rotated letting them get her entire body, she slowly stepped back a bit, slightly bending at her knees she placed her rear end against the little work station. Steven nearly falling back as she got close enough to touch, Kate letting out a massive giggle as she moved her heinie from side to side. “ Oh what is the matter, I thought you wanted that station.” Steve just shook his head as he proceeded to wash off her rear, Kate letting out a giggle as he seemed to show some extra enthusiasm for his work after this little seen. Finally finished Kate, found herself holding back a blush at her behavior and what she decided to do next. “ I think I need some help drying off.” Steve found himself snatched from his tower only a second later.

Pressed against Kate’s firm rear end, the others let out a collective grunt of disapproval having not been the one chosen. Steve for his part found himself soaked as Kate moved him about each cheek. The bikini bottom being more like a thong on her massive form. He found the skin to be surprisingly soft and very pleasing to the touch though they were other areas that he wished he would get a guided tour off. Still chuckling Kate finally set him back on his station before walking off. Looking up he noticed the elevator coming down to his station. Thinking for a second he quickly began to make his way down the stair well. He would still have to deal with the ones that had gotten the task of cleaning Kate’s feet but maybe by using the stairs he could avoid a heckling from the entire group.

It seemed to be tradition that whenever one of them got that type of attention from Kate, the others just had to torment them. Despite this, every one of them that had received it so far considered it well worth it. Kate found Amy waiting outside of the structure for her, as she had no intention of walking as far as Kate did. The girl was now in a pair of baggy shorts and a t-shirt. Seeming to have decided to remain with the relaxed look. Amy didn’t say anything about the seen, rather she just made a scolding motion with her fingers which got a laugh from Kate. Amy wondered back in this time under her own power instead of being carried by Kate, while Kate crawled in and began to search threw the various containers for a outfit she felt like wearing.

As Amy changed her clothing, the selection was now more limited, as she took out what some would consider shorts and a rather lacking shirt. Amy just looked on as Kate changed her clothing, removing her massive bikini top Amy even noticed that Kate’s breast didn’t seem to sag even when they weren’t support by a bra. The skin of her breast was much the same color as the wrest of her body since it wasn’t actually the sun that had given her the very light tan that she did have. Slipping on a bra, Amy removed her bottom as well. Something got Amy’s attention for the first time at this moment, Kate didn’t seem to have any hair on her entire body except for her head and eye browse. Blinking for a few seconds, she didn’t see any razors around that would work for Kate so it made her wonder just how she did that.

Kate didn’t notice Amy’s gaze as she slipped on a pair of panty’s as well as her shorts and shirt. The shorts seemed to cling to her like a second skin, while the t-shirt she put on left her entire stomach exposed, as it actually folded under her breast. This had the effect of making sure that her breast were complete covered but it clung to her skin so firmly that it was easy to make out the outline of her nipples. At last Kate noticed, Amy’s look as a playful smile formed on her face, she would have to try something later on but not right now. She considered Amy a friend now, but despite that and having talked to her online for years she wasn’t quite sure if this next stunt she had planned would float. Rather she settled for just relaxing a while, “ Hey Amy want to watch a video?” Picking up the platform that served as her keyboard the project attached to it turned slightly to keep the screen on the same part of the wall as Kate began to search threw her video collection. The girls finally settled on a few movies, though they finally found a difference at this moment. Kate having been raised by the army was both pro military and into action and destruction as well. After all she had been taught how to cause it, Amy for her part wanted to watch movies with more story and not so much gory.

They were however able to settle on lord of the rings, while the other few movies seemed to be a trade of between the two girls. A soft sound got Kate’s attention during the fifth movie as she looked down at Amy. The girl had laid down a while back and it seemed that between the warmth of Kate’s stomach and the regular motion as well as her fatigue that she had fallen asleep. Grinning Kate placed her hand upon the girl, as she settled back herself. Pushing a few buttons on the massive keyboard all the lights within the room winked out a few seconds later. Kate’s massive hand move over Amy to settle gently over her body as Kate went into what some would consider sleep. Though truth was she was always aware, the closes Kate could achieve to sleep was her heart rate slowed and her body in general went into a relaxed state, she never fully lost consciousness though.

As Amy slumbered and Kate relaxed, the hand that covered Amy would occasionally move about gently petting the small figure upon Kate’s stomach. A few cameras continued their observation of the room for a short while longer before the attendants went on to other things. Without any sound to wake her, the gentle movements of Kate’s stomach and her soft breathing it was some time before Amy returned from the land of Nod. This gave Kate plenty of time to think though as she often found herself doing at night, it was extremely enjoyable to her to get to hold Amy threw the night.

Amy woke well into the morning, still finding herself laying comfortably upon Kate’s stomach. Slowly setting up it didn’t take her a second to remember where she was as she looked around the area. It was dark thanks to the lights being out but she could make some things out still. The least of all being Kate herself whom she assumed was still sleeping. Had she been able to get a better view of Kate’s face she might have noticed the rather playful smile that she now wore upon her face. Moving slowly over Kate’s stomach Amy made her way to the edge looking down to try and figure a good way to get off her massive new friend. Simply jumping didn’t seem like such a good idea, as even laying down it wouldn’t be a very pleasant fall. Noticing Kate’s hand at her side, Amy took a look towards Kate’s shoulder. It would take some doing but it seemed that she could get over to it.

Walking towards her, Kate’s breast would be the only problem with getting to her shoulder as she considered the various ways that she might be able to get pass them. She could just scoot around the size of course but that would put her some what close to falling thanks to the size of Kate’s endowments. There was also the option of climbing over them, she wasn’t sure how Kate would take that though should she wake up. The final option wasn’t even there as she considered going between her breast. Thanks to the t-shirt covering both the top of her breast and the bottom that wasn’t going to happen. She didn’t even bother trying to lift it considering how tight the material must be and how strong it would have to be in order to contain Kate’s massive chest. As she debated on which way to try for, Kate was be careful not to make any movement nothing that might tell Amy that she was awake and had been so the entire night. After a while Amy finally settled on a course of action, “HEY KATE I NEED TO GET DOWN.” Echoed off the walls as the girl yelled at the top of her lunges.

Even though it didn’t hurt her it did shock Kate, as her eyes now opened up completely. Looking down towards Amy she could hear and see that the girl was slightly chuckling at the look upon her face. Kate was use to people trying to climb down her body, Amy was one of the few that decided waking her up would make the most since. “ Oh good you are a light sleeper, how about some help. I need to get to my room.” Chuckling Kate offered her hand to Amy who instead of climbing all the way in simply set down upon the side of it. It was a short ride and Kate had deposited her friend on the walk way were she could head into her room. Setting up and rubbing her eyes for a moment, Kate looked towards the door that Amy had left open. “ Well you sure make a good alarm clock.”

A response didn’t come for a while later, when Amy came back into view. Shaking her hands dry, “ Well I had to use the lady’s room and I couldn’t think of a way to get down without putting my life at risk.” “ Uh hu.” Was Kate only response as she stretched, then rolled over on her stomach. “ Well once you are ready how about we go and get something to eat, then go and find something to do.” “ I have an idea if you don’t mind me suggesting one, we spent all that time on the beach yesterday but didn’t do any swimming. So I was hoping we could go for a dip in the ocean.” “ Alright that sounds like fun, I will have to pick some things up though before hand.”

Amy came out brushing her hair so she wouldn’t feel like she needed to yell. “ What is that?” “ Oh just a raft and a few other things that I like to take with me when I go swimming with a normal sized person. You know how to serf?” “ Nope never tried to learn.” “ Well then we will just have to fix that, it is kind of nice learning with me since I can make waves on demand and you don’t have to worry about getting a face full of sand. Amy nodded as she walked back into the room to put the brush away. “ Okay that sounds like it could be interesting, though I hope to do some pure swimming as well. Just what do they serve to eat around here?” “ Plenty well plenty for you, my diet is a bit more limited. Once you are ready we can just head down to the mess hall and grab something to eat.”

Jack felt a bit of pain as Kate gave him a slight slap on the head not enough to really hurt but he knew she didn’t like the comment. He grinned realizing that he had just spoken without thinking and got a image of a bald Kate. He didn’t find it too unpleasant but he preferred her with her hair and was grateful her body was taking this rout instead of the simpler one for once. “ Yeah I guess that wouldn’t be too attractive hmm who knows maybe your body is instinctively keeping its sex appeal.”

“ Hmm you really think that is the reason? That my body is naturally following the concept of sex appeal and altering some features.” Jack looked over his shoulder at Kate turning his chair around completely.

“ Sure may be.” Jack was interrupted as Kate suddenly moved forward pressing her c-cup chest into his face. Her breast where firm but still quite pleasant to the touch a fact that Jack had confirmed several times when she happened to hug him but had yet got to confirm with his hands.

“ Then do you think these might get better?” Kate giggled as she noticed the look on Jack’s face who actually had to push her back a bit so he could talk. Kate let Jack’s hands push her back as she felt them pressing on her arms.

“ I am not so sure about that one after all your body is looking out for its own survival to and I am not sure if you would be as effective of a fighter with a pair of DD’s out in front.” Kate sighed and proceeded to press her hands up under her own breast making them seem some what bigger. Sighing as Kate she felt herself up a bit she did this mostly for Jack’s enjoyed as his face remained very close to her chest.

“ Ah poo all well I guess you can have it all.” Jack smiled when he was suddenly lifted from his chair and into Kate’s arms.

“ Well now Cuddly I think it is time for you to get back to bed. I didn’t mean to wake you up after all and I don’t want you feeling drained later on today.” Jack grinned as Kate proceeded to carry him upstairs and back into his room. Flipping off the lights as she went he didn’t expected what happened next as Kate laid down in the bed and simply placed his body on top of her own. Her arms wrapping around him he looked at her for a moment knowing that she wouldn’t be tired for quite some time. Kate grinned at Jack and rubbed the side of her cheek against the top of his head as she held him.

“ You fall asleep quicker when I am with you.” Jack grinned realizing it was the truth as he already felt himself relaxing in Kate’s arms. It was funny but as she held him he felt so relaxed that mingled with the fact that it was still night time helped to push him towards the land of nod. Considering the situation it wasn’t overly surprising though as he noted how safe he felt with Kate around. He didn’t like to think of himself as the type to hide behind another but still Kate’s warmth and the thought that she would protect him where both very relaxing. A short while later Jack’s breathing slowed and his body became more relaxed as he drifted off to sleep. Kate grinned and looked over towards his clock reaching out she set the alarm to go off two hours later. Even if she had woken him up she could let him sleep in to late and get his sleeping habits messed up.

Kate easily lifted Jack’s sleeping form from the bed and placed him back in it. It was easy to move him without waking him thanks to her strength he simply felt so light. Slipping out of the room Kate sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. “ Well I guess it beats having you torn out the first time I get into a major fight.”

Slipping out of Jack’s room and back to her own Kate proceeded to rummage through the drawers. A few moments later she located the outfits that Jack had bought earlier. Pulling out the gear that was originally meant for motorcycle racing. Looking it over for a moment she recalled why she had started using it recently. The tough material was better able to handle the little nicks she took while running around while her softer outfits could simply get shredded by the branches. Removing her t-shirt she proceeded to slip herself into the outfit as she checked out the window to make sure that it was still dark out. She had been going for her runs before sun rise to help avoid prying eyes. Her sleeping habits having changed so much over the past weeks that she could easily run for a hour and still make it back two hours before Jack would be getting up.

Thanks to today she wouldn’t be making it back quite that soon but there would still be time for a jog. Taking the time to zip herself up in the outfit Kate proceeded into the living room and slipped on a pair of solid black running shoes. She felt a need to have a word with Jack about style and to point out she preferred white over black. It was partly her fault though as she resolved Jack didn’t know what she would like and was probably going by functionality at the time. Stepping outside Kate filled her lunges with the clean mountain air and wondered how it would feel once she got back to the city. A grin formed on her face as she wondered if her body had strengthened itself enough that she wouldn’t notice. She was sure Jack would notice though as he seemed to have adapted to the mountain air.

Taking a few moments to stretch Kate finally took off in a jog the sound of her feet striking against the ground and kicking up some dirt quite audible. Kate easily reached her jogging speed of 120mph while she could reach 160mph she had found that she could only hold such speeds for a limit amount of time thus 120 was preferred for a good work out. As Kate sprinted down the hill side she couldn’t help but find it amusing how easily her eyes followed her own actions as she considered how fast she was moving. She saw things more quickly and yet she could make them out as clearly as ever as her legs quickly ate up the ground. This had actually made Jack nervous when she mentioned it to him before though it was a necessary out come if she wanted to use her speed. It meant that her brain was being altered as well though to better process the information.

Kate had worried about this herself for a while but had to resolve there was little she could do about it. Her thinking process had remained the same at least as far as she could tell. As Kate made it back onto the back roads a grin formed on her face as she enjoyed her greater speed. It was enough so that she didn’t have to worry about someone coming up from behind her though leaving her only concern what was going on in front of her. She did occasionally come upon someone who was out in front of her but they where easy enough to avoid. If she couldn’t find a way around them she would always just turn around and go back the other way. The times that someone was behind and in front of her she could simply jump back into the woods and consider along those paths.

As she moved along she found her mind returning to the thoughts of her hair and what other changes her body might be going through. Jack had mentioned that her body might be holding onto its sex appeal. A part of her hoped it had reached that point of realization however as she moved along she began to worry about the idea of her body thinking on its own. Then again Jack did mention that her cells ceased to function and change once removed from her she only wished she knew if that was because it was removed from the rest of its kind or if it lost the link with her brain her mind.

The sound of some tires screeching against the pavement took Kate’s mind from these thoughts as she looked ahead of herself. At first she thought she had accidently run upon a driver and scared them but as she looked ahead she knew that wasn’t the case. A older model ford was up ahead swerving dangerously from lain to lain. As Kate got a little closer she could make out the back of the drivers and passengers head. The two passengers seeming to be young teenagers and going by the way they were driving she resolved they where either drunk, getting there or driving like idiots intentionally. None of which where okay as far as Kate was concerned at first she considered pulling them over but quickly recalled she wasn’t a copy anymore. As she considered her options a grin began to form on her face as she quickly hopped into the trees and began to pass the vehicle.

A few moments later she jumped down from the woods and came to a dead stop. Taking a moment to brace herself so she simply wouldn’t be knocked away she listened for the vehicle. As the truck came around the corner Kate moved her legs a bit to get a firmer grip on the ground. Kate having chosen a curve that would offer a good blind spot she had chosen the spot correctly as the drivers noticed her to late to do anything about it. Their reaction time having been dulled and the simple fact that it was a blind spot as well as Kate intentionally putting herself in the way. The vehicle slammed into Kate her feet digging into the ground as while the impact didn’t hurt her she still only weighed 180lbs. Kate felt her shoes being ground into the pavement as she was pushed back a bit though it still ended in the vehicle being stopped rather quickly. She felt the metal fold around her body after ripping through her clothing as her feet finally left the ground.

Kate felt strangely odd as she was sent through the air having lost her footing for just a moment. Her 180lbs pounds slammed into a tree though the motion didn’t hurt in the least. As she came to a stop she slowly stood up and lightly dusted herself off before checking out the vehicle. The damage was significant but she didn’t think she had totaled the vehicle thanks to its sturdy build. This actually disappointed her a bit but she didn’t feel like using her actual hands to damage the vehicle. At the moment she had been hit she had been a pedestrian after all giving her the right of way. A grin formed on her lips as she made her way over to the vehicle and saw the pair moving inside. Looking in the floor poor she was quite sure they where both fairly sauced. Kate snorted in contempt having spent a good deal of time as a cop drunk driving is one thing she couldn’t approve of at all.

“ Oh the insurance is going to love you to I bet that is if you have it.” The two men looked over at the woman who was now standing beside the vehicle. The two of them seeming to be in a daze thanks to the impact and alcohol going through their system. Kate reached through the open window and shut off the engine for them. Looking at them the passenger had a nice bump on his head but Kate doubted the damage was permanent. Though she was unsure if she really cared after all they had hit her. This instantly got a giggle from Kate as she looked around and resolved that she needed to move the vehicle out of the road.

Taking hold of the vehicle Kate lifted it from the ground and proceeded to move over towards the road side. Setting the vehicle down and tossing the keys in the back seat she figured they could find them when they where sober enough to look strait. Deciding not to stay around to long Kate took back off towards the house figuring this was one of those things she wasn’t going to mention to Jack. As Kate ran along she resolved she would have to find a better way to brace herself for impacts in the future though. As while that had been fun she hadn’t managed to remain as steel as she had wanted to. As Kate made it home she wondered what they two men would end up telling their insurance. She imagined if they where smart they would simply say they had hit a deer or some other animal.

She wasn’t really sure if they would even recall what they had hit though considering they state they had been in even before they had impacted with her. Kate quickly trotted back inside a wide grin upon her lips as she made her way to her room. Looking in the mirror she took note of the damage the crash had done to her clothing as well as her shoes. As she removed her shoes she resolved they where still in good shape and could be used for a while longer. Her jogging out fit on the other hand was a completely wreck as she removed it. Tossing the clothing in the trash she was glad she had more then one outfit as she wouldn’t need to mention it to anyone for quite some time. Even if someone did notice though she imagined she could simply explain that she had slipped while jogging along the highway.

Slipping into some normal clothing she found herself debating on a return trip to the city. It had been nearly a year since she had left and she had went from athletic human to super human in that time. Also she found herself feeling a stronger and stronger desire to put her powers to use especially as they grew. The fact of what she had done only a few minutes ago was proof enough of that. The impulse to demonstrate her abilities where getting stronger and she was having trouble keeping them in the confines of the house. Flexing her arm a sigh came from her as she stood up and began to make her way towards the basement. The new equipment having arrived earlier she felt a need to burn off some energy. As Kate made her way down stairs she looked at the machinery and felt a surge or pride as she flexed a arm. “ Lord girl you are becoming a power addict.” Came from Kate’s own lips as she realized how much she enjoyed flaunting her power.

She felt a little gilt as she realized that her decision to have the truck slam into her wasn’t purely moral but it was also a heavy dose of ego and her desire to flaunt her own abilities. Thoughts of what she might start doing as she grew more powerful both excited her and made her shudder a bit. She didn’t like the idea of being owned by the power after all. Closing her eyes Kate made a resolution to herself. “ Twelve more weeks one year of development that is all.” Kate then proceeded to type a few numbers into a keypad on the new barbell. At least that is what Kate considered it though it was really a hydraulic press. Setting the machine to exert 5 tons of pressure she made herself comfortable as she pressed up on the bar. The computer registering the act instantly began to apply the pressure. Kate slowly lowered the bar and then easily pushed it back up. Looking at the computer screen for a moment she moved the bar into a secure position before adding another 2/5th’s of a ton to the total weight.

End Ch 2.

[happiest_in_shadows]

This now left Kate with a problem though as she recalled that Jack had sent off for her custom made weight set several weeks ago. He had finished designing them earlier and ordered them from her father’s company but he hadn’t put it on a rush order as he felt the weights would last Kate a while longer. Now Kate found herself in quite the dilemma as she realized that even if Jack called today they would probably take a while longer to be ready. She could of course continue exercising through jogging and using the other free weights but in truth she rather enjoyed her bench press as a means of showing off and testing her strength. Looking around the basement she tried to locate something that could feel this roll however nothing came to mind. Looking at the barbell itself she contemplated simply using it bending down and taking hold of its center she decided that was a bad idea the moment she lifted it.

The metal screamed the moment Kate lifted it from the ground and began to bend in the center. Placing the barbell back down Kate let out a long sigh and once again began looking around. Walking up stairs she checked around the house for something however upon realizing that even her grandfather’s safes would not have enough weight to give her a good work out she let out a rejected sigh. Walking on outside she took a seat on the steps and began to look around the yard the thought that she could use a large rock suddenly hit her then passed the moment she spotted something else. Quickly dashing back inside Kate proceeded to locate a rather large towel though she went with a worn out one. Dashing back outside she proceeded over to the second humvee that her father had left upon his visit.

Throwing the towel out she managed to get it fairly well distributed underneath the hummer. Laying down Kate proceeded to sort of crawl underneath the vehicle a wide grin upon her face as she began to search for a area that she could place her hands. She was once again grateful Jack had went into town as she imagined how silly she would feel if this didn’t work out.

Jack felt odd driving back to the house it had been quite some time since he had driven anywhere having Kate drive most the time. What made things worse was the vehicle that he found himself driving at the moment the humvee being a far cry from his car. Still he just chose to take things slower then normal it meant a few speedy people had to drive around him but he didn’t mind. The fact that should they chose to hit him their vehicle would be the worse for it seemed to give him a slight confidence boost. As he pulled off on the side road that lead to Kate’s grandparents home he relaxed a bit. As he made his way over the rocky road it eventually gave way to the smoother surface letting him know that he was nearing the house what he was when he got there though made him stop the vehicle a good deal short of the porch.

The second humvee was slowly being lifted from the ground and then placed down. Kate having found a few areas strong enough for her to place her hands and not worry about damaging the vehicle was now putting herself through her sets. It was a amusing moment for her as she heard Jack pulling up but didn’t stop her exercise routine wondering if he was enjoying the show.

Jack found the scene so strange that he didn’t realize just what was going on until he noticed the edge of a towel sticking out from under the vehicle. Pulling the rest of the way up to the porch Jack hopped out and proceeded over to the humvee bending down he looked at Kate who was now grinning at him. “ Now just what do you think you are doing down there?”

“ Oh the barbell can’t hold enough weight for me anymore so I had to improvise. Hey Jack would you mind going on inside and calling my dad let him know that he needs to hurry up with those custom weights for me. I will help you carry in the groceries after that.” Jack could only nod as he straitened up and made his way back inside lightly shaking his head at the sight that he had just seen. At least he now knew that if he ever managed to get the vehicle stuck in a ditch so long as Kate was with him it wouldn’t be a problem getting out. Though he doubted even with his driving skills having down graded over the weeks of inactivity that he would mess up enough to get a humvee stuck.

Nathan was looking over the companies profits when the phone rang. Picking it up he knew who to expect since Jack and Kate was one of the few that had his personal number. “ Hi Nathan I was just calling to let you know that well I need to ask if you could speed up the production of Kate’s new gym equipment.” Nathan was caught a bit off guard considering that he had helped with the modifications to Kate’s equipment as one supremely confident in his work he hadn’t expected Kate to go through the equipment before the year was up.

“ Sure but could you tell me what happened I guess Kate is progressing faster then I thought.”

“ Progressing faster and faster it seems that as she gets stronger her rate of increase improves as well. She is sort of bench pressing that humvee you left us and to be honest I don’t think it will have enough weight to keep her happy next week.” Nathan blinked hearing that his little girl was currently bench pressing a fairly well armored military vehicle was a bit of a shock. He had left the project in Jack and Kate’s hands so he didn’t know just how strong she was becoming up until that point.

“ Well I think I can get the weight set ready and shipped to you by the end of the month but I doubt I can get it there any sooner. I guess until then you can just start putting stuff in the truck and seats unless. You haven’t already started loading the thing down yet have you?” Jack smiled hearing the curiosity in Nathan’s voice.

“ Naa she hasn’t gotten that far yet but I am sure we will be there by the next week.”

“ Okay then I am going to get on speeding things up here then. We are having to adjust some of your design specks.” Nathan’s last comment was spoken with humor but honesty as well as they had found some of the design plans Jack had sent in though sound had been lacking. It didn’t surprise him though as Jack had admitted before hand he had little experience with such mechanical designs. In truth Nathan felt that he should have had someone that built mining equipment designing the hydriodic gear that Kate would be requiring in order to keep up with her strength increase.

“ Alright then I will let Kate now.” Jack and Nathan said there good byes when Jack proceeded to look out the window and continue watching the humvee being lifted. The fact that it was Kate doing this and not a machine was the most impressive fact of all as he just shook his head. Walking on outside he looked under the vehicle waiting a moment he watched as the muscles in Kate’s arms swelled and then relaxed and she raised and lowered the vehicle. It wasn’t a complete bench press though thanks to the tires Kate couldn’t lower the vehicle entirely to her chest it was the best they could do for the moment though.

“ Alright young lady quit playing with your toy and come out here and help me carry in the groceries.” Kate grinned as she turned her head in Jack’s direction and set the vehicle down moving across the towel as she stood up she dusted herself off.

“ Well it isn’t as good of a work out as I am use to but I am sure it will do see.” Kate proceeded to flex her arm in front of Jack looking at the muscle for a moment Jack reached up and placed his hands on it. Squeezing her biceps Jack couldn’t help but grin it was true that Kate’s muscles hadn’t actually increased in size they had simply redesigned themselves to be even stronger then normal. Still the thought that he currently had his hands on a muscle that could lift a humvee and that it belonged to such a attractive woman was truly a wonderful thought to him.

Slipping her arm from Jack’s grip Kate proceeded over to the humvee opening up the trunk she let out a sigh. “ I wish I could get all these on a nice even platform then I could carry them all at once.” Jack grinned realizing that indeed the only thing that kept Kate from carrying everything in at once was that her arms didn’t have enough space. Jack stood back as he watched Kate load herself down with the heavier items until there was no more space on her arms. Following suit Jack was able to carry as many items though this was because none of them where nearly as heavy as the ones Kate carried in. Once inside Kate proceeded to place the groceries away while leaving Jack to carry everything else in.

“ I think your day was surprised when I told him his little girl was bench pressing a humvee. He didn’t say much but he sound shocked that was for sure.” Kate grinned as she recalled how she use to watch her father work out and would debate if she wanted to be that strong. She could have pushed herself to match her father in strength but she knew she would suffer in the agility department. Nathan was still a good deal taller then his girl despite her being six foot which meant he had more mass to spread out the muscle over. Kate had to stop developing her muscles size sooner then him and turn to simply toning them up other wise she would have began to suffer a decrease to her agility. The drug Jack had given her though had answered her all her problems as she was now able to increase her strength as much as she wanted it seems and not suffer any decrease to agility far from it actually as she found her muscles changing and adapting she found herself getting faster and faster.

Kate looked over at Jack who was busying himself putting away the lighter items. She recalled the conversation about her new abilities being a gift from him and him expecting her to use it. It was amusing to think that thanks to his gift her father max bench pressed seemed like nothing to her. She could easily bench press 500lbs she could even support that much weight easily with one arm by now. He had truly given her a wonderful gift though at first she had thought it came at great personal risk to her she realized it didn’t. She had been on her death bead until Jack had came along with the little drug and saved her during that time she had nothing to lose and so much to gain even more then she realized. The thought that the cancer had been a blessing in disguise got a giggle from her as she realized she would have never tried the drug or even had it mentioned to her if she hadn’t been dying.

Halting what she was doing Kate walked over to Jack and rapped her arms around him from behind looking at him with her emerald green eyes. “ You know I am glad things are working out so well after all if they didn’t I wouldn’t know what to do. If you had given me a costly ring for a gift I could have returned it to you if things hadn’t worked out. A necklace the same or anything of simple value I could have returned but what you gave me is worth too much more.”

Jack placed his hand on Kate’s. “ Even if things hadn’t worked out this well and if I could I still wouldn’t take back your strength seeing you enjoy it so much. After all a gift once given now belongs to the other.” Kate brought her lips closer to Jack’s ear having to stand on her toes a bit she brushed her soft lips against his outer ear.

“ Who said anything about the strength it is nice and all but you have given me something better.” Jack’s heart jumped a beat as he guessed at what that something was and was scared to ask just what it was. His curiosity was only made worse when Kate released him with no attempt to answer him. He had been living with Kate for a while now and was quite sure he was past the point where he would consider himself just a friend. He was after all allowed to explore some of her body and they did regularly sleep together though he hadn’t gotten nearly as far as having sex just yet. It was frustrating in a lot of ways but as he recalled what Nathan had told him about Kate he didn’t want to risk losing her. Jack bit his lip as he resolved that he at least needed to ask to find out just where he stood with his remarkable creature. After all Kate was growing more powerful every day and there was a fear that she would forget him because of his.

“ Kate I have been wanting to ask you something. Could you tell me just where me and you stand? I mean I have been living with you for a while now and I was wondering if I was more then a friend.” Kate grinned having expected Jack to ask such a question it actually impressed her that he had waited so many months before bringing the subject up.

“ We are more then friends Jack at least I consider you more then just a friend. I just think we need to live together for a decent while to make sure everything is going to work out before we go to far.” Jack gave a understanding nod.

“ Alright but haven’t we been together for a while now.” Kate felt Kate’s hand go under his chin and she gave him a slight kiss.

“ Yes we have but we have been living away from everyone with only each other to deal with and I haven’t been working. We need to get back to the city and back into the flow of things before we can really say we work well together.”

“ Yeah that makes since it is just that with you getting more powerful every day and as far as I am concerned more lovely I feel like I might lose you when they are other men to compete with.” Jack knew Kate felt grateful towards him for giving her the drug but he didn’t want that to be the reason she was staying with him.

“ Don’t worry Cuddly it isn’t like anyone is going to come and just sweep me off my feet and don’t worry if anything my increased strength just makes you seem more adorable to me.” A moment later Jack felt Kate’s hands take hold of his waste and lift him off the ground. “ After all I happen to like men that are weaker then me incase you have forgotten.” Kate smiled at Jack she understood that he wanted to move a bit further she wanted to as well but she felt a need to be patient and take her time with such things. It was a lesson her mother had spent several years drilling into her head especially the concept of when to share her body with another.

“ Alright this is one of those things that I am just going to have to be patient about. That shouldn’t be to hard since I spent a good deal of my life looking threw a lense. Ah crap I forgot to tell your parents that they need to come down here so we can have a conversation with them. I don’t think I want to mention the drug on the phone.” Kate grinned at Jack and ruffled his hair.

“ My father doesn’t have much of a social life as you might recall after all he didn’t visit me often even in the hospital. Besides neither of my parents are chatter boxes and I am sure they know when something needs to be kept quiet.” Jack considered Nathan’s line of business and nodded his head in agreement.

“ I suppose you are right. Well now since we got all the groceries taken in hope about we finish putting them up and do some testing.” Kate blinked and set Jack back down looking at the bags she guessed that the needles they had ordered had arrived and now that he had something that could get through her skin they where ready to begin. Kate having slept then on standard delivery it had taken them quite a while to arrive since they happened be quite a bit out of the ways. Jack grinned at the look on her face and began putting the groceries away. Kate let out a sigh and began helping him as she did this though she checked over her shoulder.

“ You know at the rate my strength is increasing one of these days you won’t be able to even prick me.”

“ I know and to be honest I can’t wait for the day I can see you with that much power.” Kate actually blushed as she recalled how much of a turn on her power was not only for herself but for Jack as well. It actually made her wonder just why Jack seemed to enjoy taking her blood once in a while. At first it had been a mechanical experience for him something that needed to be done but she had noticed a grin a few times. The realization that hit Kate a moment later made her grin and blush a bit as she recalled those times. Jack had been forced to put more effort into getting the needle through her skin then normal it wasn’t that he enjoyed pricking her it was the fact that he could tell how much more powerful she was getting. The desire to show off and flaunt her strength seemed to reassert itself as Kate thought of this.

“ Hey Jack just when is that other exercise equipment suppose to arrive and how much weight will it be able to produce?”

“ Your dad said it should be here by the end of this month but don’t worry he pointed out a pretty good way of adding more weight to your temporary exercise equipment. We can just start stacking the weights in the trunk of the humvee and maybe in the back seat if things get desperate enough.” Kate nodded in agreement it would be the simplest and probably the most effective idea after all.

“ Alright but how much weight are they suppose to be able to generate.” Jack seemed to think about this recalling the design specs.

“ Well the bench press should be able to generate around 25 tons of force at least with the dimensions I gave it. Your father mentioned that they were some design flaws though and he was going to have some things redone.” Kate grinned as Jack seemed worried that it wouldn’t be able put out the preplanned amount of pressure.

“ Oh well then I am going to expect it to be able to put out 35 tons at least considering my father. He isn’t one to allow things to be down graded after all and will probably try to fix what ever was wrong and exceed it.” Jack just nodded not knowing exactly what to say Nathan did seem like he knew what he was doing when it come to mechanics. With that out of the way Jack and Kate finished putting away the last of the items then Jack finally took hold of a rather sturdy looking package. Kate looked over his shoulder to see just what all was in there. The package was much to Kate’s surprise full of needles as she had expected it to come with a bit more equipment. As she looked at the rather sturdy and threatening looking needles considering they were going to get going into her. She noticed at the ends had been fitted so that they would work with the regular medical equipment Jack had down stairs.

“Well lets get to work after all we need to get as much information as we can before we lose the ability to brake your skin.” A long sigh came from Kate as she followed Jack down stairs it was true she enjoyed showing off for him but still getting pricked had gotten old and she had enjoyed the few weeks of not having to worry about a needle going into her. Jack made it down stairs a good deal before Kate did and was shocked to see the destroyed bench press letting out a low whistle he looked up at Kate who was slowly making her way down the steps.

“ Now just how am I suppose to stay fit.”

“ Oh I am sure we can fix it up I was just wanting to finish my work out earlier. We can do some repairs later on and maybe I can put these muscles of mine to some constructive use. That is provided you don’t take to much blood and leave me feeling light headed.”

“ Hm that is a risk I guess we are going to have to take I really want to see how your cells have come along since the last time I was able to check them. The last batch of cells I took from you died off about 3 weeks ago.” A curious looked appeared on Kate’s face.

“ You mean you have been keeping them alive?” Jack grinned finding a chance to brag about something.

“ Actually no I haven’t intentionally been keeping them alive longer then a few days but I have noticed that as your body strengthens the length of time your cells can survive once taken from you has began to increase. Without me trying to preserve then your cells can now last for several weeks at least they could four weeks ago. I bet they last even longer now who knows they might even last a month.”

“ I bet you can get some good data from that.”

“ Err well yeah but actually none of it is relevant to you after a week. You see Kate you are simply changing too quickly the best thing I can do is try to figure out patterns and see which way it is going to go. I haven’t had time to study any one sample and figure out exactly how it is working. I figure others can figure that later on by looking through my data.” Kate held her tongue as she considered commenting on how she hoped the data he recorded was better then the notes he used for his own purpose.

“ Alright now let me see your arm.” Kate sighed as she held out her arm and Jack began to feel along it. He didn’t bother placing any form of band on her arm to help get the veins to express themselves her muscles having grown to strong for most things to effect them. A moment later he dabbed a section of her arm with some alcohol before preparing the needle. “ You may want to look away if you don’t want to see your own blood.” Kate grinned and didn’t look away a part of her still hoping that the needle wouldn’t brake her skin. It had been four weeks since the little firing test and she couldn’t help but nope they needle wouldn’t make it through. A moment later she felt a sharp prick and turned her head away as the needle began to push its way into her body.

Jack found himself having to apply a decent amount of force to get the needle in and he wondered if he could compare it to getting through the hide of a rhino or if Kate’s skin was even stronger. As her skin resisted he doubted that he would ever get to use all the needles he had ordered as he felt certain Kate wouldn’t have to worry about them being able to make their way through her skin for long. It meant he would have to call Nathan later on as well and explain the need for some needles. He had told Nathan that he felt they would need some specially made one but he hadn’t made it an official order. As the blood began to flow into the vial he considered the odds of them being able to make a needle that could continue to make its way through Kate skin. Removing the vial once full he placed another on the needle and once again began to feel it.

“ I wonder where my skin would rank in strength wise do you think it is plate armor strength?” Jack looked up to find Kate’s head turn in a different direction it being quite clear that she didn’t want to see her own blood going out of her veins.

“ Actually I would say that your skin is a good deal stronger then simple plate armor at least what a night would have worn. Though I don’t think you should get in the way of a cross bow bolt at least not yet. I think maybe triple layer plate armor if it ever existed would be a good way to define the strength of your skin.” Kate grin rather pridefully though she eagerly wished for the day that they could say her skin was as strong as tank armor and then perhaps battle ship armor. The thought took Kate’s mind away from the needle that was currently inside her body at least until she felt it being removed from her. Kate visibly shivered as she felt the needle being taken from inside her body she didn’t like the feeling one bit.

Placing the vials away Jack quickly bandaged Kate’s arm before looking at her. A surprised look appeared on Kate’s face as she realized Jack wasn’t going jump right into his research as he normally did. “ Aren’t you going to get to studying?”

“ Yeah I suppose I should but you know when I think about it that blood there can survive for at least a week I know. So I guess I don’t have to jump right back into work if there is something you want to do.”

“ Oh no you don’t you took it from me so you are going to get to studying. Tell you what though while you do some research I am going to go start dinner.” Jack nodded in agreement as he picked up the vials and headed over to the microscope. Drawing out a few slides he began to set the equipment up while Kate headed on upstairs. Heading into the kitchen Kate began to look around for what she wanted to cook as well as to consider what needed to be done before the day was up. She would need to help Jack repair the weight set so that he could exercise as well that could be done after dinner though. Deciding that Jack would probably spend a while in the lab Kate considered making a roast for the two of them since it wouldn’t require much effort on her part and it would kill some time.

Looking through the refrigerator a few steaks caught her eye as she started to reach for them she shook her head. Something like that was to good to waste as she imagined how she could show off for Jack when it came time to cook them. Her body having strengthened a great deal she wondered if Jack would enjoy watching her grill a few steaks and not need anything to flip them other then her own hands. The fact that she could now handle flames that were at least suitable for cooking was a real kick for Kate though she didn’t feel she was ready to stick her hand into a welding torch.

Ruling out the stakes Kate proceeded to get out the roast and prepare the ingredients as she did this she found herself intentionally doing things that would have normally harmed her. Running the blade of the knife along her skin as she pilled a few potatoes not using oven mittens when she placed the roast in. It was getting to the point that Kate was having trouble helping herself recalling that not even a year ago she had to be so careful when doing so many things. Now if she accidently shot herself in the foot or grabbed a hot iron she didn’t have to worry about any consequences and with every day she grew stronger she knew she had fewer and fewer things to concern herself with.

The thought was almost a intoxicating one especially when Kate looked out the window at the two humvees in the yard. Recalling the last trip she made into town she grinned recalling how she had buckled up and had done for years especially after becoming a police officer. She didn’t have to worry about buckling up anymore though at least she thought she didn’t. Being able to run at over 100 miles per hour as well as the fact that her body had strengthened itself to take a even faster punch the thought that even if she got thrown out the wind shield she wouldn’t be harmed in the least was quite amusing. Considering this she resolved that she still needed to use a safety belt considering that she would be riding with Jack and she wanted to make sure he buckled up. Requiring him to where a safety belt while she didn’t hardly seemed fair to her.

Kate finished preparing her and Jack’s dinner well before he was out of the lab leaving her with the dilemma of what to do with her time. Taking a moment Kate checked herself and gave herself a slight slap on the forehead. She knew exactly what she needed to do as she removed her shirt and began to head towards her bathroom. Having just finished working out a short while ago in which one of her work outs actually required her to go outside she felt a need to get herself cleaned up. Tossing her shirt in the laundry basket Kate slipped out of the rest of her clothing. A long sigh came from her as she looked at the bathtub and lamented the fact that they had yet to set up a system that would allow her to take a truly hot bath.

Jack looked perplexed at the computer screen as he began to notice something on the screen. Up until that point Kate’s blood cells had kept mostly a human shape with the same make up as a humans except each individual component was more advanced. Now after a few weeks of not being able to check and see just how Kate’s cells were doing he found himself looking at a component that he couldn’t recognize. It reminded him of the nucleus in many ways except that it seemed to glow a slight blue making the entire cell seem to light up. Thinking for a moment she stood up and made his way over to the light switch. Turning off all the light in the basement area he thought Kate’s blood seemed to glow though he couldn’t be for sure. Turning the lights back on he took a moment to scribble down. “ Blood sample seems to be emitting some form of energy thanks to now structure forming in cells. Effect of this energy or the purpose of the structure is unknown.”

Other scientist would be able to see this of course as Jack had by now started recording his findings. Returning his attention back to the computer screen he began to zoom in on various parts of Kate’s cells realizing that he couldn’t focus all his intention on just one part no matter how strange it seemed. As Jack continued to watch what was going on he noticed that while most components seemed to behave normally at least compared to what their old functions where. The nucleus and mitochondria where not. Kate’s cells having developed a higher level of sophistication then what a normal humans had her nucleus seemed to have evolved in its ability to handle information. As Jack considered the fact that Kate’s cells seemed to be evolving and changing he felt quit dim for not realizing it earlier. It truly was changing to process and take in information in order to allow it to alter itself to survive.

The mitochondria for its part was now behaving more like its own organism though it seemed still a member of the community. It seemed to function more on its own as it moved about as if searching for something. Thinking for a moment Jack got a idea as he made his way over to the old storage area and took out the old blood cells of Kate. I twas true they had died a week ago but he still wanted to conduct the test. Taking out a needle he took a bit of the blood and then placed it with the now living and more evolved samples of Kate’s blood. The more advanced blood cells quickly ceased upon the now dead once and much to Jack’s surprise began to tear them apart. Each cell in the area now seemed capable of dealing with such a intruder and responded very quickly as they cannibalized their former.

It quickly became apparent why the cells had to be so actively mindful of changes. If they didn’t the now evolved cells would waste no time in cannibalizing them. Thinking for a moment Jack through away the needle and retrieved a clean one. Pricking himself on the finger he proceeded to introduce some of his own blood into Kate’s sample. The reaction was different then he expected as Kate’s cells seemed to examine his for a moment. He imagined they where to see if they where the same type of cells, the next generation of cells or an intruder. Jack grinned and shook his head as a moment later though he watched the sample of his blood he had introduced be consumed. The mitochondria seeming to be the main instigator of the cannibalization and destruction of interlopers.

Once again turning to some paper he wrote down a few more notes. “ Cells do not respond well to weaker cells or interlopers do not on any circumstance get Kate’s blood on you.”

The thought of how Kate’s cells had reacted to his own was a some what disturbing yet interesting one as he considered what might happen if it did get on him. At the time his cells had been the interloper as Kate’s had been in greater abundance but would that stop them if they simply got on him or would they tear him apart. Thinking for a moment Jack made his way up stairs, into Kate’s room and stood next to her bathroom doom.

“ Kate do you know of a place that I could go and get some animals blood?” Kate felt a little odd as she heard Jack’s question wondering just what he would want such a thing but deciding to answer.

“ Yeah just go into town and stop by the taxidermy people are always shooting something around here and they should have some fresh blood. Not like you would find out at butchers office but Cuddling. Just why do you want animals’ blood.”

“ I have a test I want to conduct and I will need a decent amount of blood and I don’t want to bleed myself as much as might be needed for a real test.”

“ Err alright well how about instead of taking of you give me a moment to finish my shower and then I will go with you.”

“ Sure thing.” Jack stepped away from the door and made his way into the living room. Setting down on the couch he considered just how much blood he wanted to use for this experiment he would probably want to start with just a dish and then move up to a larger amount. He shook his head feeling silly a moment later as he decided it would be a better idea just to use regular small amounts of animals blood and just introduce fewer and fewer of Kate’s cells into it in order to see how they did. A short while later Kate came out of her room wearing a rather large t-shirt and shorts her hair had been brushed but she hadn’t went through too much trouble of fixing it. A short while later the two of them found themselves in the taxidermy office Jack feeling some what silly at what he was about to request.

Kate looked around the officer checking out the various trophies that lined the walls if the owner and killed them himself or if he was showing off his work she wasn’t sure maybe even both. Kate had mixed feelings as she looked around the room and considered the trophies. On one had she respected the hunters right to hunt agreed that the animal population needed to be controlled and admired their willingness to stand the freezing cold conditions during deer season. On the other hand she wasn’t sure if she cared for the concept of having an animal mounted and hoped that the meat was cooked. She didn’t like to see things killed without a reason and the concept of killing something just to kill it seemed idiotic to her. As she did this something got her attention out of the corner of her eyes as she noticed two people where staring at her.

Turning her head to find the two boys that she had caught on the back road a few months earlier she grinned. They were lucky she hadn’t caught them now as she could really scare them thanks to her increased strength and speed. “ Well hello there boys you haven’t had your four-wheelers on any back roads recently have you?” Michel and Howard looked in disbelief as they debated on weather Kate was the person they had met on the road earlier. They hadn’t told anyone about what happened deciding that they most likely wouldn’t believe them and actually began to doubt if it had happened or not it was kind of hard to belief even for them.

Howard was the first one to find his voice as Kate approached them a friendly smile on her face. “ Nope we have been sticking to the back woods lately no running the back roads for us. I guess we should have asked this earlier but umm who are you?” Kate grinned and considered if answering their question was a good idea or not shrugging her shoulders she imagined it couldn’t do any harm to answer them.

“ My name is Kate and now may I know yours? I think I had to much fun picking up your toys and out running you last time that I forgot to ask your names.” The boys grinned as Kate openly admitted to teasing them despite everything they recalled happened she seemed friendly enough then they might have felt differently had they realized how much more capable she had become since that day.

“ Lock jaw over there is Michel and I am Howard pleased to meet you.” Howard started to ask Kate another question when Jack returned carrying a plastic bag.

“ Hey Cuddly got what we came here for?” Jack nodded noticing the two young men she was talking to but shrugged it off. It was Kate’s business who she decided to converse with though he did wonder what they had been talking about.

“ Sure did are you ready to get back.” Kate nodded as she walked over to Jack and took him by the arm.

“ Yup lets go.” Jack felt a little odd as he headed through the door and wondered just what was going on. Kate of course was intentionally drawing attention to Jack wanting to make the two boys wonder who he was now. Jack didn’t realize this but of course enjoyed the attention and wished he wasn’t carrying a container of deer blood at the moment. He had gotten lucky upon his arrival as someone had dropped off a deer only recently. The shop owner had thought him a little strange as he prepared the animal but didn’t have any reason to not give him the animal blood just meant there was less for him to dispose of. Jack had insisted on giving him a twenty for the animals blood as the whole experience left him feeling a little strange.

Michel having been quiet the whole time was the first one able to speak as he walked over to Howard. “ Think she is some kind of vampire?” Howard gave Michel the ultimate you are an idiot look at his friends response considering they had just watched Kate walk out in day light. Michel noticing this felt a need to defend himself. “ Well we did just see that guy walking out with a whole mess of who knows what kind of blood.”

“ Deer and that was an odd fellow.” Michel and Howard turn in the direction of the voice to find Howard’s father putting away a twenty dollar bill. The two boys didn’t waste any time in drilling the man for information. Howard coming to regret that his father had a mind your own business attitude as he proved to have little information other then Jack’s name and that he was not a hunter.

******************************************************************************

Kate sighed as she ly in bed her eyes slowly drifting open. Looking around the still dark room she grinned as she recalled a time when she would be looking at day light. Having went to bed at midnight Kate turned her head in the direction of her alarm clock to find that it was still 5 in the morning and yet she felt totally rested. Such things had been going on with her for a while now as she found her body becoming more capable she found her rate of recovery increasing as well. Now she only required 5 hours sleep instead of the 8 hours it at once required her to fully recover herself. Climbing out of bed she rubbed her hands across her eyes before she began to straiten out her covers another item that she no longer used. It now required so much heat or cold to effect her that she imagined she could safely sleep outside even during winter at least in the region she currently found herself in.

Stretching her muscles Kate ran her hand through her hair a surprised look appearing on her face. Holding her hand in front of her face even she could make it out her fingers where covered with strands of her own bright red hair. Kate’s mouth opened widely as she realized just how much hair had come off in her hand. Flipping on the lights she looked towards the bed and nearly feel over when she found the pillow blanketed by her hair strands. Picking up the strands of hair the amount that had came out over night truly shocked Kate her hair having seemed so much thicker over the last few weeks she didn’t see how she could suddenly be losing it.

Quickly dashing into the bathroom she flipped on a light and proceeded to check herself in the mirror. As she did this though she noted something odd despite the amount of hair she seemed to have lost. Her bright red main still seemed as thick and vibrant as ever. A relieved yet perplexed looked appeared on Kate’s face as she began to hold the strands together in order to gage just how much hair she had lost over night. The worry that she would find a huge bald spot on the back of her head gone Kate began to curiously run her fingers through her hair as she did this she began to notice a change in her hair. Some of her hair seemed thin compared to the others and this was the hair that came out in her hand just by brushing her fingers over it. The other hair strands seemed thicker and healthier then normal encouraging her to run her fingers along their length.

Kate found herself wondering if the changes to her hair was due to her body’s alterations. Deciding to conduct a test she removed a few of the thinner hair strands just by touching them and held them in her hands. Easily snapping them in two she was sure that at least the current strands hadn’t strengthened like the rest of her body but then again hair really wasn’t a muscle. Then taking a moment to feel of one of the new hair strands she noted it felt like her hair though a good deal silkier, softer and smoother. This got a grin from Kate as she wondered if her body was adapting so that she wouldn’t end up balled the first time something yanked her hair. Curiously she took hold of one of the hair strands and gave it a slight tug reading herself for the slight pinch she would feel. Finding out that the thicker strand didn’t want to come out in the least Kate chuckled and gave it another hardier tug. The moment the hair was removed Kate’s eyes nearly doubled in size as she felt a shard of pain shoot throughout her entire being.

Jack was normally a heavy sleeper requiring a fairly loud alarm to wake him from his slumber. That wouldn’t be a problem today though as his ears where pierced by one of Kate’s screams. Kate who normally had a fairly high pain tolerance hadn’t been prepared to feel like she had just torn of a layer of her skin. Catching herself a moment to late she took in a few sharp breaths while she tried to relax herself. The sound of Jack scrambling towards her room field the house as he burst into her room. “ Kate is something wrong?” He called out the moment he entered her bed room then ducked into the bathroom to see her standing there holding a single strand of hair in her hand. “ What happened Kate?”

“ I pulled one of my strands of hair out.” Kate said this in the most serious way she possibly could though the look Jack gave her was one of utter shock. The notion seemed to silly as compared to how loud she had been screaming only moments later. Slowly a grin broke on Jack’s face as he resolved that Kate must be playing a joke on him trying to see how fast he would rush to her aid. The fact that he had done so was actually amusing as he considered the difference in their abilities and what chance he would have against something that Kate was having trouble with. The thoughts seemed to ridiculous in his sleep deprived and adrenaline infused state that he found himself chuckling openly. Kate for her part was blushing a bright crimson as she felt extremely silly still it had hurt. “ I am serious Jack it really hurt.”

Jack continued to grin as he noted the strand that seemed to be the culprit. “ OH then I guess we need to punish it.” Jack removed the strand of hair from Kate’s hand still laughing lightly. Taking it between his hands he gave it a fair yank and nothing happened. The look on his face a moment later got a grin from Kate as he began to struggle with the strand of hair. A moment later he held it up to his eyes getting a closer look at it. He quickly noted that the strand of hair seemed thicker then what he had seen before though it still looked nice. Slowly running it through his fingers it didn’t take him long to take a guess at what was going on. Kate’s body had been strengthening itself after all he couldn’t help but assume that it had adapted itself so that her hair would be proportionally strong to the rest of her. “ I guess we need to take a look at this.”

“ Glad you believe me now.” Jack nodded in agreement thankful for the adrenalin that was currently running through his veins. It had done a good job of waking him up though he knew he would be feeling drained in three hours or so. Deciding not to waste time he headed out of the room and made his way towards the basement Kate following closely behind. Kate stopped and looked around at the basement now it had began to look less and less like a make shift lab area and more like a professional testing center. With the arrival of her new exercise equipment as well as the additional medical equipment Jack had requested. The extra medical equipment had started to help deal with her strengthening skin but it had expanded greatly when Jack had learned how dangerous even her blood could be.

He had later told her that he was worried it could act like a virus and pointed out the risk of such a action. Kate recalled how he had tested it with the animal blood and studied that one sample over the last 7 weeks as well as additional samples. He had learned several things about how Kate’s body worked. He had found that her cells could attack any interloper but they would not respond like a virus. That is if Kate’s cells where in the greatest number they destroyed and consumed any other organic material while if they where in the lesser they seemed to kill themselves. Further more even if they could survive outside her body they would not reproduce once removed from her. It helped to relax Kate a good deal as she had feared what would happen if her cells did form into a virus after Jack mentioned that day.

The final limitation her cells seemed to put on themselves once removed from her though was the fact that they ceased to evolve. Jack couldn’t help but resolve that this meant they required a stimulant to adapt and that most likely came from Kate’s brain and her desires. While Jack was quite sure Kate wouldn’t continue getting stronger by now if she quit exercising he wasn’t sure what would happen if she didn’t want the strength in the first place. That wasn’t a issue though as Kate had no intention of stopping her exercise routine as she truly wanted the increased strength. Really it had been good new in Kate’s opinion as Jack explained even if they could clone her with those cells it wouldn’t be as powerful as the original as whatever time Kate spent working out after the cells had been taken would give her a advantage.

Now it seemed that her body had thrown her another curve ball as she watched Jack set up the equipment and get the hair strand under a microscope. Jack felt a little odd as he began to test the hair strand though he was curious why it had hurt Kate so much when she had pulled it out. He figured it was because she hadn’t been ready for however much pain it has caused her thus she had reacted more strongly then what she would once she was prepared for it. Wondering back over to the computer screen he brought up the image of Kate’s hair on the screen and began to look it over. It didn’t take him long to figure out what had happened as he leaned back in his seat. “ Hey Kate have you ever torn off some living skin.”

“ Well yeah tends to happen when you are removing some dead skin from a bad sun burn and go a little to far.” Jack nodded as he pointed towards the screen. It was strange but despite the discovery Jack didn’t feel as shocked as he normally would have. Working with Kate for nearly a year now had taught him to expect strange alterations within her body. It was something that he was getting used to.

“ The reason it hurt you so much when you tore out your hair strand and the reason why I couldn’t brake it in two is because your hair is alive now.” Kate blinked and walked over to the screen looking to see what it was showing. The cellular structure of Kate’s hair wasn’t over complex but it was assuredly more then what a normal persons’ had. Jack decided to help illustrate this point by plucking one of his own hair strands and sliding it under the microscope with Kate’s then he began to move it back and forth. “ You see while my hair strand is dead thus it doesn’t hurt when I cut it yours is alive. I suppose this is your body’s way of strengthening it to make sure you don’t end up bald if you have to compete someone that is your equal and they swing you around by your hair. Still kind off odd you think your body would take the simpler way and just make you bald.”

[happiest_in_shadows]

“ Yeah hmm I guess we need to try another needle.” Jack once again turned from Kate who puffed out her cheeks in objection to his comment though she didn’t say anything. Retrieving another needle Jack placed the device against Kate’s skin looking up he waited for her to turn her head away.

“ Go ahead I want to see if it brakes again.” Jack grinned he wondered that himself or if he had just gotten a some what weak needle. It would have been a mistake after all for him to assume that the needles couldn’t get through Kate’s skin just because one had failed. As he pressed the second needle into Kate’s skin he didn’t hold back as much this time the needle braking far earlier then the first. Sighing for a moment Jack would try three more needles before he finally felt satisfied with the results. Kate for her part seemed perk up even more with the braking of each needle.

“ We are going to have to get some better needles if I am going to keep checking your blood.”

“ Think you can find some that are strong enough?” Jack only nodded his head as he turned to the computer screen and put in a order from medical supplies. The rate at which Jack put the order in actually surprised Kate until she looked over Jack’s shoulder and saw just what type of needles he was ordering. The moment he pushed the order button Jack could almost feel Kate’s shock as she saw what he had just ordered.

“ You just ordered needles normally used for tranquilizing animals from my fathers company.”

“ I looked into it earlier to be honest I just didn’t think we would be needing them so soon at least I thought it would take a few more weeks before your skin would start putting up enough resistance to brake a needle.”

Kate let out a long sigh as she considered arguing with Jack but gave in. They did need to continue testing her blood still she wished he hadn’t ordered rhino needles as well. All she could do was hope they were for later usage. “ All well I guess it was coming anyway actually I have been meaning to ask you. Do you think we could conduct some test to see about how strong my skin actually is I want to find out if I could take a bullet or not.” It was Jack’s turn to be surprised as Kate made her request. His first thought was no however he pushed this away as he realized Kate probably didn’t want him to actually shoot her with a gun but rather they could make use of various tools to find out her skin’s strength.

“ I guess some general pressure test are in order but what do you have in mind.”

“ Well how about we start with something light such as maybe putting my hand in the clamp and then we will see if you can actually hurt me.” Jack nodded realizing they would once again be making use of some of the old tools he followed Kate over to the work bench. Kate walking over to the clamp gave the nod a good spin opening the clamp. She slipped her hand into the device before tightening it just a bit. She had no intention of tightening it herself as she was quite sure that would hurt a great deal. Despite her increased strength she didn’t feel quite ready to compare her skin to the three inches of steel that would soon be bearing down upon it.

“ Let me know if it starts hurting you.”

“ Oh don’t worry about that. That is why I am having you turn the handle I doubt you can even hurt me with me just leaving my hand here.” Kate’s words came out in a rather teasing tone that spoke of her confidence in her abilities. Jack for his part didn’t mind being teased such ways at all as he began to turn the handle. Kate felt the clamp come down upon her hand as the pressure began to increase though she noticed a rather strange event. Through out the entire process she could feel the pressure increasing however it never seemed to hurt her. Jack for his part started only using one hand to turn the crank however as it began to tighten he found himself using both constantly looking over to see how Kate was doing. He was some what surprised to find her gaze locked on the device and not focusing on him at all.

Feeling rather sure that he wasn’t hurting her he now began to his back into it as he did this though he found it wouldn’t go any further. Thinking for a moment he repositioned himself so that he could lean into the crank and slowly put not only his muscle into the task but also his weight. Pressing as hard as he could he watched as Kate moved her fingers that remained outside of the clamp seeming to be in no pain at all. “ Let me try.” Kate was surprised by how things were going upon looking up she was even more shocked to find Jack was putting all his effort into just trying to hurt her in the least and yet she didn’t seem to feel it. Taking hold of the crank in her own hand she began to turn the will. A moment later the metal began to scream lightly as over 760lbs of force was exerted on the crank and the metal began to give.

A huge grin had formed not only on Kate’s face but Jack’s as well as he watched the machine give away. Thinking for moment he wasn’t really sure if he should be surprised or not as Kate had recently reached the point that she could bench press nearly two tons. He imagined the force that must being applied by the weight on the single area of her hands while holding up the massive load. “ I think we are going to have to come up with a more effective way of testing me.” Jack could only nod in agreement with their current equipment he doubted they would be able to get a accurate reading of just how much Kate could endure before she was actually injured.

“ Think we could try a knife?” The thought just rolled out as Jack considered how the needle had broken against Kate’s skin. The way Kate’s head snapped in his direction though told him right away that wasn’t going to happen.

“ You clearly haven’t worked with knifes very long or weapons in general. It would be more likely that you would injure me with a knife then if you just used a small caliber hand gun to shoot me. I think we should start with something more basic and work our way up since seeing how much raw pressure I can withstand isn’t going to work how about we start with something more basic.” Kate proceeded to roll up her shirt exposing her ab muscles to Jack. “ Hit me as hard as you can.

“ Kate you just left your hand in a vice and them applied enough pressure to tear sed vice up I think I would be more likely to hurt my hand then you should I punch you.”

“ True but this will give you a feel for how aggressive you can be with me. Come on just give me a good solid punch.” Looking at Kate for a moment Jack doubted it would do any good as he looked at her tightly packed ab muscles still he pulled back his fist and laid into her as hard as he could manage at the moment. Kate gave Jack a rather amused look upon his fist hitting her. “ Come on Jack you know you can’t hurt me so don’t hold back.” Jack couldn’t help but give Kate a strange look feeling that he had put all he could into the punch.

“ Come on Jack your not being aggressive at all tell you what just keep hitting my stomach and I will let you know when I think you are ready.” Kate just smiled at Jack who let out a long sigh as he began to hit her in the stomach though thanks to his lack of experience with such things a few of the punches impacted other areas Kate didn’t say anything. It wasn’t like he was hurting her and besides she needed to get him to be more aggressive while testing her. After all she wanted to find out what she could take and that wouldn’t happen if he was scared to hit her as hard as he could. Jack for his part just couldn’t shake the feeling that he shouldn’t be doing this. Even though the logical side of his mind knew that his punches couldn’t hurt Kate he still felt like a complete ass since he was still hitting a female. Even with Kate’s urging for him to be more aggressive couldn’t get him to put more effort into it and only by repeated striking her did he find his body relaxing and the punches coming harder.

Kate sighed feeling as if a declawed kitten was walking across her stomach it was kind of nice as Kate considered Jack was completely helpless compared to her. It made her want to reach up and cuddle him but she restrained herself. It was true even if she got Jack to be aggressive as possible with her he wouldn’t be able to hurt her she still needed to try. Kate’s thoughts turned to other things as she thought of the best way to test herself. At the current moment each one of her arms could lift 760lbs taking a moment to consider how much speed she could get into a single punch Kate began to get an idea of just what her body could with stand assuming she could treat it as if she was a boxer. A moment later Kate looked up as she felt Jack quit hitting her stomach looking at him she realized she had lost track of time. Jack’s hand where by now a bright red having finally gotten over his lack of aggression he had a look of admiration on his face though it was tempered by the fact that his knuckles were truly hurting him now. “ May I go ice these down now miss?”

“ Oops sorry about that my thoughts trailed off I guess your little taps relaxed me.” Kate grinned as she let her shirt down and then took Jack by the rest doubting he would like his hand being grabbed. Leading him upstairs Kate set out a bowl of ice water and allowed Jack to sink his hands into it. “ I didn’t mean for you to hurt yourself but I guess you got over your lack of aggression.” Jack nodded at first he had been subconsciously restraining himself while hitting her but as he had landed more blows and been encouraged by Kate even the subconscious part of his mind quit worrying about hurting her thus he was able to put his full strength into it. The problem was that even though Kate’s skin was soft and pleasant to the touch her muscles underneath were by no means pleasant to hit. To make things worse the harder he hit them the stronger they seemed to become until he felt like he was hitting a peace of plate armor wrapped in thin layer of silk.

Kate stepped behind Jack and began to lightly rub his shoulders as she considered just what the next test should be. They hadn’t gaged the speed of her punches however they had tested to see how fast she could run thus Kate knew she could run at 95mph. Taking this into account Kate made a slight guess at just how fast her fist moved while punching and then factored in the fact that she could deliver 760lbs of force just by pushing on something with her hand. The thought that she might be able to compare her punches to being hit by a street bike going at full speed or perhaps a small car where pushed away as she recalled another important detail. Her fist didn’t cover nearly the same area as these vehicles which meant the force of her punches would be significantly more concentrated and powerful in that smaller area.

“ Jack I think we might just need to shoot me with a small hand gun and then move up from there to see what I can with stand.” The worried look Jack gave Kate got a large grin from her as it showed right away he wasn’t keen on the idea.

“ Can’t we just step things up slowly? I mean there isn’t a point in taking any unneeded chances and besides what makes you so sure that you could take a bullet.”

“ OH let me see I killed a rather large dangerous animal in one punch. Each one of my arms can deliver 760lbs of pressure in a area as compact as my fist and that is if I am just pushing against something. If you consider how fast I can deliver a punch it gets to be significantly more. Now assuming that I can take a few punches that are within the same power range of my own I think I could take a few bullets.”

“ Braggart, Still I think we should stick to stepping things up slowly I mean I would hate to have to explain to your dad how you got a bullet wound.”

“ Alright we can just keep to stepping things up slowly before we moved into the real stuff. I am going to go see if I can find something to do as a baseball bat.” The fact that Kate seemed to have just announced she was going to allow herself to be hit with a baseball bat was both a very exciting and strange thing for Jack as he watched her bounce off happily. He was beginning to get a better and better idea of just how much Kate was enjoying being super human. Also she was doing as he had requested earlier and showing off as often as she possible could though in a method he wasn’t sure he approved off. Kate was rummaging through the house trying to find a item that would be suitable for the up coming task. She had already stopped down in the basement and found a crow bar but she doubted Jack would want to start with it.

Jack pulled his no longer throbbing knuckles from the water as he watched Kate return noting a crowbar, the handle of a pick axe and he wondered where she had found that hammer. “ So are you ready to get back to testing?”

“ I think you are more wanting to show off then really be tested but yeah I am ready.” Getting up and following after Kate he couldn’t help but worry about the sledgehammer until he took a moment to consider what Kate had told him. Just pushing on something she could generate 760lbs of force with one hand now he knew good and well that the hammer didn’t weigh nearly that much. There was also the amount of speed that she could get into a single blow considering things Jack’s concern slowly began to turn to excitement as he realized that even with these tools it wasn’t likely that he would be able to cause Kate the least bit of pain. It was odd but he always imagined being around such a person would make him nervous. Instead he found himself only more excited as he began to really comprehend just how far Kate had come since they began testing and how far she could possibly go.

Kate took a moment to retrieve a rather large towel as well as a pillow before leading Jack outside. Placing the items down she then proceeded to lay out the towel and pillow before handing Jack the pick axe handle. “ This will have to do as a bat and remember be aggressive.” Nodding his head Jack took hold of the handle reading himself he knew this wasn’t the most scientific means of testing a theory but it was one of the more interesting ways of doing it. A moment later Kate felt a slight impact in her stomach though no where near hurting her. This was followed suit by several rapid impacts each one some what harder then the other. As she stood there Kate mused off how light the impacts seemed to be. “ Hit me in the face.” The impacts stopped coming the moment these words left Kate’s mouth.

“ Are you sure.” Jack was cut off as he felt Kate’s hand get a grip on his own looking at her hand then the wide grin on Kate’s face Jack knew it wasn’t going to hurt her. Drawing back and swinging as hard as he could the sound of the bat impacting Kate’s face was audible and the pain was quite shocking. As Jack felt the handle strike Kate’s face the fact that it didn’t move in the least meant at least some of the force when back into his hands. The pain he felt shoot through them almost made him drop the handle as in his state he had forgotten that one little detail of what happens when you hit something and it doesn’t budge. Kate for her part hadn’t felt any pain though as she looked at Jack she did feel a little bit of guilt. “ Um Kate do you think we could stop for a while before I accidently get injured.”

“ Oh could you just do one more thing you don’t know how neat this is to have someone able to hit me with everything they have and it not even hurt. Hear just lets do one more thing and then we can move on to the other stuff.” Jack sighed wondering what it was he got his answer quickly though as Kate handed him the hammer and proceeded lay down on the blanket and pillow. Placing her hands behind her head she smiled up at Jack. “ Start with my stomach and then try the rest of my body.” Jack looked at the hammer then at Kate recalling what he had figured up before he still wasn’t sure if he wanted to do this. So far he could say Kate’s muscles where as hard as stone just what stone he wasn’t sure though.

Still from the look on Kate’s face he figured that she would at least want to continue until something stung a bit. Lifting the hammer slightly he finally proceeded to give her a light tap on her stomach. Kate only grinned there was no rush of air or any sign that she was even tensing up her muscles to brace for the impact she remained completely relaxed. Putting a little more force into the swing Jack once again struck her in the abs and once again there was no sign of damage. Slowly Jack began to increase the force and the frequency of the impacts though he couldn’t get full force into it thanks to the fact that his fingers were hurting him it wasn’t unbearable though he just planned on icing them down for the next hour or so. Kate’s laughter finally caused Jack to stop as he looked down at the giggling amazon. Kate could help herself the situation seemed so ridiculous here she was laying down actually having the man she was coming to care for beating her with a hammer.

The most amusing part for her though was the fact that it had absolutely no effect upon her. Impacts that would normally be braking bones and destroying her completely had absolutely no effect on her just 32 weeks after her body had began its alteration. “ Well I think we can officially say now that I am super human.” Jack could only grinned as he set the hammer down and rested on the handle.

“ I would have to agree with you there so is it alright if this human goes and soaks his sore hands for a while.” Kate nodded happily though she didn’t get up quite yet rather she continued to chuckle and even gave her own stomach a few good pats. Jack could only grin at Kate’s child like behavior though he imagined that since this was really the first time just how powerful she was getting was sinking in she had a reason to be excited. Kate set up a moment later starting to follow Jack inside her attention was drawn to the crow bar that they had never had a chance to use. Picking up the peace of metal Kate looked at it for only a second before she began to twist the metal bar in her hands. The metal’s sturdy build held up for just a moment before it began to give in to Kate’s strength.

Walking back towards the house Kate only had to focus moderately on the bar as she took a moment to open the door. Jack having already made his way inside and returned to the bowl of ice water was surprised when he heard the sound of metal bending though he didn’t realize that was what it was until he looked up at Kate. Jack knew he should be surprised but he couldn’t help himself as he watched Kate twist and bend the bar as he watched her he realized that she was going for a specific shape. Kate focused intently on her task not because the effort but because she wanted to do something more complex then the pretzel stereotype and was actually trying to bind the bar into the shape of an over sized paper clip. Jack was distracted from his sore hands as he watched Kate work the bar.

Kate couldn’t help herself as she found herself having to fight the desire to really test her strength and see what all she could brake. This practice however was akin to vandalizing so she forced herself to refrain from the desire choosing instead to simply focus on tormenting the peace of metal that she held in her hands. After all this wasn’t exactly her home but still belonged to her parents and Kate wasn’t about to allow herself to become a destructive person just because she was getting a little taste of power. After all if she felt the urge to just brake things now she could hardly imagine how strong it would become once she began to come into real power. The thought took her back a bit at one time in her life she would have given up a great deal for the power she held right now. Now that she had it though she was already craving more and to make things even more exciting she was quite sure that she would be getting more as her body continued to change.

As Kate mused on this she let the bar slip from her hands deciding that she would play with it later on. Looking over at Jack she made her way over to him noticing that his breathing was already excited from the display he had just seen. She bent down placing her hand under his chin she moved his head slightly to face her and then pressed her lips firmly against his. Kate had to fight the desire to simply take Jack into her arms and carry him away to her bed room. She wasn’t ready for that yet though so she kept control of herself at least partly. Jack did find Kate’s tongue wasted no time snaking its way into his mouth to wrestle with his. Much as with the rest of her body Jack found that Kate’s tongue easily over powered his own. This only serving to make him more excited he nearly passed out the moment Kate let up partly thanks to the lack of air but mostly thanks to pure excitement.

“ I am going to get a few firearms.” Jack didn’t say anything right away as it took him a moment to get out of his stunned state he was however able to catch Kate before she left for the master bedroom.

“ What firearms I haven’t seen a gun in this house since we arrived?”

“ That is because your not suppose to silly guns are one of the main things people want to steel and besides can’t risk a kid finding them.” Kate continued to speak by raising her voice so that Jack could hear her as she went into the bedroom she played around with one of the dressers for a moment until she heard a click. “ Besides one of the reasons for this place was for hunting. My grandfather enjoyed deer season especially.” This was made evident by the supply of shotguns and rifles Kate soon found herself looking at as she put in the safe’s combination. Checking the ammo drawers Kate sighed realizing it hadn’t been restocked since her grand parents’s deaths.

Kate was able to find a decent amount of handguns as well as she laid out a .22 caliber a .38 caliber and a .45 caliber. Digging around for a few moments Kate was able to find the ammo for each weapon and took her time loading them. Figuring Jack would want to soak his hands for a while longer she headed back into the dining area now packing the hand guns. Laying them out in front of Jack she grin as she noticed the nervous look on his face. “ We are going to start with the 22 and see if that is able to hurt me then if that doesn’t bother me we will move up to the 38 and finally the 45. Depending on how I do with the 45 I might bring out a few hunting rifles and see what effect it has on me.”

“ Well give me a few more moments but I warn you if you want me to aim for a precise spot I am not a very good aim. Well actually I pretty much have zero experience at handling a firearm.” Kate seemed to think on this she had been planning on having Jack aim for her shoulder before trying to a area with more important organs now it didn’t seem like she was going to be able to do that. A aim device would have been handy at the moment but she knew her grandfather never stored any of those away. Shrugging her shoulders it wasn’t like she was overly concerned she doubted the weapon could deal a lethal hit to her. Really her only concern at the moment was one of them might be able to damage her which at most would require a try to the hospital.

“ Don’t worry about it I think I can take it.” Jack sighed and nodded his head at least he wouldn’t be hurting his hands this time around. Though he imagined what the consequences would be if he had to tell Nathan. “ Oh I put your daughter in the hospital by shooting her.” Not exactly what he would want to tell someone that could beat the day lights out of him. It was better then letting Kate do it herself though as he imagined she would try it on her own even if that meant shooting herself nearly point blank. Kate for her part was playing around with the 45 rolling the gun around on the table she had a very excited look on her face as she imagined what it would mean if it couldn’t even harm her. The most powerful handgun out of the three it was pretty much the worst firearm she would have to worry about while on patrol at least as far as hand guns went.

Jack on the other hand was quite nervous as he looked at the weapons now set out before him. At least Kate hadn’t asked him to shoot her with a rifle that was a good thing it still made him nervous though. The fact that he was about to shoot the woman that he was coming to love more and more with a handgun wasn’t comforting at all. Even considering what he had done to her earlier he had been able to start out with light taps at least with these though it wouldn’t be no starting out easy and building up. What made him even more reluctant is the thought of what it would mean if one of the weapons killed her. Kate was getting more powerful every day so that if he could just convince her to wait for a while longer it would be safer. He doubted that would work though as he watched Kate play with the various handguns though her attention was mostly on the 45.

Kate didn’t say anything as Jack let his hands soak for longer then the planned time only when the ice was but a few small parts floating around did she stand up. “ Come on now enough stalling time to get to testing.” Kate picked up the 22 pocketing it she carried the 38 and 45 in her hands. Jack sighed and followed after her shutting the front door behind him. Placing the 38 and 45 on a lawn chair Kate retrieved the 22 from her pocket and handed it to Jack. Then trotting out into the yard Kate chose a spot away from the front porch which she imagined would be about the same range as she was likely to find herself in the city.

“ Alright time to get testing.” Kate folded her arms behind her head adopting a very relaxed pose she didn’t bother to remove her clothes thinking it would be more fun to see the bullet whole in them once it was over. Jack took in a deep breath of air as he tried to steady the firearm taking aim at Kate he aimed for her right shoulder even without Kate asking him he wanted to go for a spot without any vital organs in it. The only problem he found himself having was his lack of skill he worried that the shot might end up hitting her in the head. As Kate mouthed the word shoot though he finally pulled the trigger. As Kate stood there a odd thing happened the bullet coming out of the gun seemed to be moving slower then normal in fact much slower then normal considering that she could actually see it.

Kate’s eye site and reaction time having improved to allow her to handle running at her top speed of 95mph allowed her to actually notice the bullet leaving the gun and coming towards her. It was true that it was still coming at her faster then one of her own punches but the extra distance gave her time to react as she realized the bullet was going to miss her. The sound of a rush of air and a impact was the first thing that hit Jack’s ear as he looked at Kate he noticed that her right hand had come out from behind her head and seemed to have caught something in mid air. Now Kate was in shock as she realized what she had just done looking at her hand she slowly began to open her palm finding it hard to believe what she had just did despite everything that had happened. There resting in her hand was the now miss shaped projectile. Slowly a grin spread over her face that threatened to split it in two as she looked at Jack.

“ Your aim is off and you need to work on your pitch it was a little to slow.” Jack was shocked not only had Kate just with stood the bullet but she had actually caught it when she realized that it was going to miss her entirely. “ Well Jack a test must be conducted more then once to make sure it is accurate what say you unload that clip into me though this time try to aim better.” Kate’s finale words were said in a joking tone but Jack still took things slowly.

Kate could hardly define how she felt as Jack began to fire of the shots in a more rapid succession this time no longer aim high most the shots hit her in the stomach and chest area. As they did this Kate was truly thrilled by the lack of pain she felt despite the weapons fire. Instead she would feel a slight thud on her skin and then a moment later the bullet would roll down the inside of her clothing most of the bullets energy being used up as it impacted her skin. At last there was the audible click of the hand gun announcing that all the ammunition had been used up. Looking at her right hand again she still held the bullet she had caught slowly she let it slide from her hand to join the others on the ground.

“ I think if I was a criminal I would be quite concerned right now.” Kate only grinned as she watched Jack head over to the other weapons and retrieve the 38 after setting the 22 down. Walking back over to Kate he took a moment to steady his hand despite his lack of knowledge he was fairly certain this one would offer more of a kick then the 22 had. Kate considered tensing up her muscles but chose to remain in a relaxed stance. While it wasn’t a good idea to laugh at any gun some are more lethal then others and Kate knew there was a rather big gap between a 22 and a 38. Finally squeezing off a shot the sound and recoil of the gun was indeed worse then the 22 which for a moment made him wonder if it had been a good idea.

Kate reached down towards her abs having felt the bullet impact with her skin she had felt it more then the 22. A moment later she pulled the now disfigured bullet from between her waste band the bullet having slid down the inside of her shirt. Jack let out a long sigh expecting to see that the bullet had managed to get through Kate’s skin. Kate pulled up her shirt taking a moment to let Jack see her abs she places her finger where the bullet had hit. No bruise no red spot the only way Jack would have even known where it hit had Kate not pointed would be if he had examined the whole it made in her shirt. Feeling sure that Kate was safe from the weapons fire Jack pulled off the shots more slowly this time aiming mostly for her mid section. Kate only continued to grin as she felt a few of the shots hit her breast as well as her stomach. Looking towards the porch she eyed the 45 a feeling of excitement rushed through her.

At last Jack expended the last of the rounds in the 38 and retrieved the 45. Kate steadied herself now quite confident she could handle the small arms fire. Taking aim Jack was some what more relaxed with this gun then the others after all Kate had done so well with the other ones. A moment later he squeezed the trigger one of the guns seven rounds slamming into Kate. “ Ouch.” Jack looked up having not expected Kate to say that he noticed as she took a moment to dig around in her shirt. A moment later she pulled out the bullet however as she moved her shirt around a bit Jack noticed that there was a slight indent in the skin. As Kate looked at Jack for a moment. “ That about felt like a bee sting.” Kate’s grin was supremely confident as she rubbed the area the bullet had hit her.

“ Do you want me to go ahead and unload or is that enough?” Jack unsure if Kate wanted to go on now was some what disappointed at having found a handgun that could indeed hurt Kate however little. He was glad they had started with the handguns though instead of jumping strait to the rifles as he thought Kate had wanted to other wise she might have actually sustained a injury though from what he had just seen he wasn’t sure how serious of one.

“ I want to go on it didn’t hurt that bad and to be honest I am sort of getting a kick out of this.” Jack grinned as Kate stated te plainly obvious taking his time he was careful to keep the weapon hitting the strong parts of her body this time around. Each time the bullet would strike her Kate would feel a slight sting of pain then it would fade away. She didn’t really have to worry about a single 45 she decided but she would have to concern herself with a barrage of weapons fire or something more powerful at least she had to worry about them for now. The thought that next week she would be a decent amount more powerful then she was at the moment and the next week even more powerful was almost intoxicating by itself.

The fact that as her body changed and got stronger the rate at which she gained strength also increased was truly a wonderful thought and at that moment she found herself wishing that it would never stop. Jack finally squeeze off the last of the bullets though he was surprised when Kate stood there a moment longer as if in thought finally she smiled at Jack. “ Thanks for this gift Jack I must say it is assuredly the fifth best gift I have ever received.” Jack blinked for a moment as he considered what Kate had said just what made her call it the fifth best gift.

“ Thank but what are the other four?” Kate grinned as she began to walk towards Jack she spoke slowly.

“ The first would be my live which actually you did help to restore to me. The second gift would be my father the third my mother though I can’t say in which order I would list them.” Kate stood next to Jack and placed her lips against his cheek giving him a kiss. “ And the fourth is that I have such a wonderful friend who I home to get to know better and better as we spend time with each other.” Jack couldn’t help but smile as Kate removed the 45 from his hand then retrieved the other guns. “ I am going to go put these in the wall safe.” Jack only nodded as he watched Kate head inside waiting a moment he went in himself. Instead of following Kate though he went to the couch and took his usual spot. Kate’s statement had really helped to assure Jack that he was getting closer to her and in some ways petted his ego.

As he considered the testing that they had just went through though he mused over the needles that he had ordered. He was grateful he had ordered some of the stronger ones as from what he had just seen he doubted anything weaker would be able to get through Kate’s skin. He hadn’t been thinking of it while doing the testing but if Kate had indeed made it into the range of rifles in particularly the more powerful rifles he doubted he would be able to find a needle that would brake her skin. Closing his eyes he resolved he would need to write a report and send it to Nathan to see if he could get some speciality made needles just for Kate. It was a kind of amusing thought as he considered the fact that he would probably need to put. “ Can go through two inches of steel.” As a requirement but with the way Kate’s strength was increasing he felt it would be needed eventually.

Kate didn’t come out just after putting the guns away rather she stopped to look at herself in the mirror. Looking at the bullet wounds in her clothing she counted 26 in total the two smaller guns having 10 rounds appease while the 45 had 7. There where only twenty six thanks to the one that Kate had caught in her hand. Removing the shirt she places a finger over each of the spots where a bullet from the 45 had hit. There was a slight red mark but they were all quickly fading and she doubted they would be there in 5 minutes. Still quite pleased with herself Kate proceeded to neatly fold the now bullet riddled shirt figuring she would show it off later on or maybe even frame it as one of the mile stones in her strength development. Slipping into a intact t-shirt she checked herself in the mirror one more time before heading back into the living room.

As Kate walked up behind Jack a broad smile appeared on her face as she noticed he seemed lost in thought. At first planning to simply join in him in setting down Kate recalled her promise to show off for him as often as she could. So instead she simply snuck up behind him and bent down taking hold of one of the chairs main supports she lifted the entire sofa with Jack as well easily supporting the weight with a single arm. Jack didn’t cry out this time as he was getting use to Kate suddenly lifting him from the ground. Peeking over the side of the couch he looked down at the amazon who was grinning up at him. “ So cuddly what do you think of today’s test?” Jack grinned as he reached down in a attempt to pat Kate on the head finding his arm couldn’t reach her he contented himself by patting her hand.

“ Well we didn’t really get much work done today but until I get some new needles that can get through that skin of yours it is going to take a while. I must admit though I am really impressed you have most assuredly broken the mark between a human and super human.” Kate continued to grin but let out a some what lamentable sigh.

“ Yeah but I haven’t made it into the range I really want to be. I mean I am not complaining hehe well I guess I am but I am not in the power range where I feel I could really call myself super powered.” Jack rolled his eyes not exactly feeling sympathy for Kate as far as he was concerned she was well within the super powered range if not a match for some of the big names like Super man or Wonder woman she was still a power house in his eyes and she was getting stronger. “ Oh lord I think I have come to consider my current strength range normal. My lord I am currently more powerful then I would have ever imagined I would be and now here I am complaining that it isn’t enough.”

“ Yup you are a greedy little thing that is for sure you power hungry animal you. Then again that is something that people have sot out almost since humans existed I imagine and you are getting your power through a peaceful means.” Kate smiled and slowly lowered the couch to the ground climbing over the back of it she lightly pounced on Jack making sure to catch most the weight with her legs so she didn’t actually nock the wind out of him.

“ You know Cuddly I have been thinking have you been working on that serum for yourself recently. I mean you where able to get it to work for me and I bet you have gotten some new information from the effect it had on me.” Jack smiled then shook his head in the negative.

“ To dangerous as far as I am concerned and to be honest with you I think it would be best if you never mentioned it to anyone. Really we need to get around to telling your parents that the next time you see them.” A questioning look appeared on Kate’s face she knew the drug was dangerous but she didn’t see any harm in Jack researching it further.

“ Why don’t you want to continue research though after all it seems like it isn’t going to have any negative side effects on me it has been a few months now after all.” Jack nodded in agreement though he still worried it might take a direction Kate wouldn’t like still so far the changes had been purely advantages without any visible side effects Jack just had to keep in mind that every cell in Kate’s body had been altered so that while she looked human on the outside her internal workings where probably not that of a humans anymore.

“ I just don’t think it would be save to have a treatment that could potentially give someone super powers. As I am sure despite the danger enough people would try it and I am not sure if all of them would have the best intent in mind. I mean to be honest considering how effective it has been I am glad we never finished it at work. As I wonder just who would be getting the treatment.” Jack didn’t bother mentioning to Kate that he didn’t really trust himself with such knowledge either as he tried to imagine what effects of slowly gaining more and more strength would have on him. The thought that Kate could be corrupted by her power hardly ever crossed his mind though having decided to put his trust in her to remain the same person she was no matter how much power she gained. It wouldn’t do him any good to worry after all he didn’t have it in him to try to kill Kate and if she did become corrupted it would probably be to late for that anyway.

“ Well alright then if you think it is that dangerous.” Kate slipped one of her arms under Jack and easily lifted him from the couch. Positioning herself that he was above her she set him down on top of her so that they were facing once again. Smiling she pulled his face down to hers and once again began kissing him. Jack leaned into the kiss their hands beginning to explore each others bodies having gotten use to the limitations Kate put on their exploration of one another.

******************************************************************************

Kate snapped in head in the direction of the barbell as the scream of bending metal got her attention. Looking at the weight set she realized what was going on to late as the supports gave way and the barbell now stacked with well over two tons of metal came slamming into the bench. The bench didn’t hold up for a moment thanks to the momentum the weight had gained in the wall and was nearly snapped in two. Walking over to it the look on Kate’s face said it all as she wore the ultimate well fuck look. Bending down she flicked the metal for a moment it had been bending a bit recently but she hadn’t expected it to just give way like that. It made her glad Jack wasn’t in the house to here what had happened as he had taken one of the humvee into town in order to pick up some supplies.

[happiest_in_shadows]

“ Well I will have to show myself to the world eventually but don’t worry the showing off I do even then will be in hopes you will see it.” Kate started to give Jack a kiss but changing her mind her tongue flicked out and licked his cheek lightly. Jack couldn’t keep the blush from forming on his face or conceal his erection. Leaning back Kate lightly rocked Jack as she told him of what she had done while out running and how the boys had reacted.

Jack looked on eagerly it had been 7 weeks since Kate had truly started showing off for him and what he was seeing now he imagined to be one of the best shows of all. Kate walked around the barbell packing a two hundred pound weight in each arm she slid it on going back over to the stack of weights she retrieved two more two hundred pound weights and slipped them onto the side one more trip and she retrieved a one hundred and a fifty pound slipping it on now one side of the barbell was loaded. That made for 1,050lbs on just one side of the barbell Jack took a moment to whisper a silent thanks that they had reinforced the bar when Nathan was there. The show didn’t end there though as Kate followed the same act easily carrying the weights over and slipping them onto the right side of the barbell before locking them in place.

“ One second.” Kate looked up at Jack as she began to lay down under the bar. Jack standing up proceeded over to the wall and grasped a rather heavy chain. Willing it over to Kate’s work out area he hooked the pulley up just in case Kate needed someone to spot her. A giggle came from Kate as she considered the fact that with the level of strength her body had reached Jack now needed a mechanical aid if he was going to have any chance of spotting her. “ Alright you are ready to go now.”

Jack watched with anticipation as he watched Kate press up on the 2,220 lbs that now rested above her. The barbell slowly coming off its supports as she put on a show for Jack then slowly lowered to her chest. A moment later the bar rose into the air as Kate did her first rep Jack began to count as the bar was lowered again and once again lifted. A pop tit appeared in Jack’s trousers almost the instant he saw Kate first lift the bar though her arms were showing signs of strain it was still far more then what a normal human could hope to achieve and what made it more delightful for him was the fact that it was Kate his friend for quite a few years and the woman he was now in a relation ship with.

Kate could more feel Jack’s admiring gaze upon her then she could see it as she focused on lifting the weight. It seemed to push her even harder to get the most of her work out as she could and to show off for the man she was growing more affectionate towards with each passing day. “ Kate may I feel of your arms?” Jack voice cut into Kate’s thoughts though she maintained her bench press.

“ Sure just don’t get caught between anything and avoid the barbell.” Jack nodded and made his way over to Kate taking a spot behind her he reached forward and began to run his fingers over her now pumped arms. Feeling of the now blood engorged muscles Kate’s skin was normally soft and quite pleasant to the touch now with her muscles completely pumped there was nothing soft about it as her arms felt like granite his fingers were not able to make a single indent in them. Between her own drive and Jack’s admiration Kate managed to push herself further then what she would have expected as her improved stamina allowed her to bench press the bar for a total of 5 sets each one consisting of 12 reps. Once it was over all Jack could look on with amazement as he watched Kate set up and flex both of her arms.

Grinning from ear to ear Kate didn’t say a word as she walked on over a group of shorter bars and picked one up. Kate having surpassed what normal dumb-bells could offer her Jack had actually made some modifications in the last few weeks. Taking a few bars and cutting them in two to get the appropriate side the bars allowed Kate to chose how much weight she lifted except for the 30lbs the war weighed itself. Picking up another bar Kate returned to the bench press and slipped off the weight locks followed by two of the two hundred pound weights and slipped them on either side of one of the bars following suit with the same one. Then as slowly as she had dumb the bench press Kate lifted the dumb-bells in her hands and began to curl them.

The fact that Kate was now curling over 2 times his weight in each of her arms was not lost on Jack though he found his thoughts constantly returning to the bench press. Kate’s exercise routine followed this pattern the whole time keeping Jack’s eyes locked on her as he considered how far she had come since they had went on this little vacation. Kate had always been a rather strong lady but since they had begun she had gone from a strong lady, too as strong as the strongest human to now super human levels with no sign of slowing down. It made Jack wonder if Kate truly had any limits to what her strength could achieve. Standing up after making use of the pulley system to do a sort of lat pull down Kate turned in Jack’s direction. Seeing the look of admiration that had been on his face the whole time she didn’t giggle instead she found herself blushing.

“ Thanks for the audience I think I am going to go get cleaned up now though I am all sweaty.” Kate proceeded to rap her arms underneath her chest and push up on her breast making her bust seem some what larger. Her sweat soaked exercise clothes hugging her form quite tightly showing off the curse of her body very well.

“ Mind if I join you.”

“ Tut tut not yet mister you need to do your exercises now anyway.” Jack sighed and grinned he didn’t think she would say yes and she was right. Jack had quit working out at the same time Kate did as he truly enjoyed watching her as each day she seemed to go some what further then the previous. Taking a moment before he began his own exercise Jack walked over to the computer screen and brought up a file on Kate’s bench press limit for over the past 26 weeks starting with her initial bench press of 180lbs the list read: 200lbs, 215lbs, 240lbs, 260lbs, 290lbs, 320lbs, 350lbs, 385lbs, 425lbs. Jack stopped there choosing not to read any further he had memorized the numbers long ago after all it was just fun to see them on the screen once in a while.

Making his way over to the barbell he was glad Kate had been nice enough to remove some of the weights for her curl bar though there was still far more weight then Jack could lift on the bar. Stripping it down Jack actually didn’t put any additional weight on the 120 pound choosing to do more reps instead of lift more weight. He had taken Kate up on her offer of a few weeks past and decided to only work on keeping his body toned and building up stamina. Bulking up really wasn’t something he desired to do especially to the point of Kate’s father. A slight chuckle came from Jack as he imagined what Nathan must look walking around a laboratory. Jack couldn’t help but wonder if Nathan had once been a lanky fellow considering how tall he was and if Kate’s mother had gotten Nathan to start working out much the same way as Kate had started himself.

As Kate made her way into the bathroom she stripped away her clothing taking a moment to look at herself in the mirror she grinned as she flexed her muscles. She couldn’t place it but she had been looking differently then what she had before her skin seemed to have a healthier glow to it and small skin blemishes seemed to be fading away from her. Of course she figured her skin should have a healthier look to it considering the alterations her body was going through. Still as much as she liked the view of her muscles fully pumped she didn’t care for being covered in sweat. Climbing into the shower and adjusting the temperature Kate soon found herself having a problem. Having always been a fan of taking rather hot showers she couldn’t get the temperature to the point she liked it any more it seemed.

She hadn’t mentioned it to Jack as she had been able to get the water to the temperature she liked simply by turning down the amount of cold water. Now as she stood in the shower she found herself rolling down the amount of gold water until she found the nob wasn’t suppose to twist anymore and still with nothing but hot the water didn’t seem quite as warm as she would have liked. This would have normally lead her to think the hot water heater was turned off but as she looked towards the rapidly fogging up bathroom mirrors she knew this wasn’t the case. Kate didn’t need Jack to tell her what was going on her body was getting stronger and toughening up which meant it was taking more then usual to hurt her and while her bath water had never really be painful just warm her body couldn’t since it.

An odd notion came to Kate as she quickly turned the hot water off and then proceeded to turn the cold water up to full blast. Kate braced herself for the feeling of the cold water running down her entire body and thus was surprised by the feeling of the water as it hit her skin. It only took a moment for the warm water in the pipes to be washed away and nothing but the ice cold water to hit her skin. Kate being a true hater of cold showers had prepared herself for a unpleasant sting but what she got as the water ran over her form was water that was only slightly displeasing to her. Nothing but pure cold water would have original sent Kate scrambling out of the shower, covering herself with towel and standing over the air vents in order to get warm as quickly as possible.

Turning the cold water of Kate once again set the hot to full blast as she continued her shower. Jack would want to know about this she realized but she figured it could wait after all even if such information would be desirable she doubted it had any immediate applications as far as she knew Jack might already have been expecting the change. A bit of a grin formed on Kate’s face as she wondered how much of the hot water she had been using lately and if Jack had simply been being nice and not asking her about it or if his studying her cells had already hinted at such changes going on inside her body.

Kate finished her shower some time earlier then what she usually did thanks in large part her not being able to get the water to the point she wanted thus not allowing her to enjoy it like she wanted to. Drying herself off Kate’s thoughts turned to getting a better not water heater one that would allow her to get the water to a temperature that she could enjoy. She would need to talk this over with Jack of course as she imagined he would want to know of such plans so that he didn’t accidently turn himself into a stew just by taking a bath and not knowing how hot the water was going to be.

Drying off proved easier than normal as Kate stepped out of her bathroom and into the master bedroom the over heated water seemed to steam off her more then roll. Drying off Kate slipped into a pair of baggy shorts and a tank-top before heading into the living room. Setting down she changed the tv to the news deciding to claim it before Jack could finish with his exercise. Jack could hear the tv as he made his way up the stairs some 20 minutes having breathing rather heavily and eager to get into the shower himself as he made his way into the living room though he noticed Kate seemed caught up in something. “ What so interesting pretty lady?” Jack made his way over to the couch leaning over it so that he could see the television.

Kate held up a hand to silence him meaning that she wanted to watch what was on the news. Jack found out a moment later as they news report began talking about a bear attack Jack figuring that is what interested Kate simply shrugged it off. Bear attacks did happen occasionally after all he didn’t see what had Kate so interested at least until it mentioned the location. As Jack realized what was going on with Kate he moved to the other side of the couch and noticed the look of worry in her face. “ Come on Kate it couldn’t have been the same bear as you slapped silly at the lake.” Kate’s eyes showed concern as well as a good deal of anger though Jack didn’t feel the anger was focused at him.

“ How do we know that? That bear was willing to attack people it could have gotten a hold of someone else I I should have deal with it right there and then.” As Kate stood up Jack didn’t know what to do exactly as she began to head towards the door. Stepping in front of her he knew he couldn’t physically stop her but he needed to make sure of just what she was planning.

“ Kate just what are you doing, your not thinking of going out to find it are you.” Hearing the concern in Jack’s voice Kate placed one hand under each of his arms before easily lifting him from the ground. Walking back over to the couch she set him down so that he was facing the tv.

“ Jack just watch and see who got attacked. I am going to go and see if I can find it I know the odds aren’t exactly the best in the world but they are already searching for it. In fact I want you to give me a call and report anything you here.” Jack was a bit surprised as Kate handed him a wireless phone and then tucked her cell phone into her back pocket.

“ Kate it is dangerous someone might see you.”

“ Beats that animal getting a hold of another little kid don’t worry Jack I was able to run it off before I think I can deal with it now.” No more argument came from Jack as he watched Kate slip on her shoes he knew there wasn’t going to be any talking her out of this. The shoes Kate slipped on were of course her new running shoes so it was obvious she planned on moving fast while on the search. Jack comforted himself by considering how powerful Kate had proven herself to be only a short while ago and the fact that more then likely she would find her prey. There was a lot of mountain to search and he doubted Kate could simply attack every brown bear she happened upon hoping that it was the correct animal.

As Kate stepped outside she stretched her legs a bit before going into a lightly jog her speed having improved over the last few weeks she now found herself able to hold fifty miles per hour without much effort in truth it felt like a jog to her now. Jack sighed as he could actually hear when Kate first pushed off the ground and took off looking at the news feed he wondered what Kate was thinking. As things went along Jack realized just what was going on as it explained how the child had managed to survive the attack. It was bow season and a hunter had heard the child’s scream. He hadn’t managed to kill the bear but he did send several arrows into the animal. As the hunter showed his bow and the type of arrows he had used Jack knew exactly how Kate planned on finding the animal just find the bear that happens to be walking around with three arrows lodged into it.

As Kate ran her legs easily ate up the terrain her morning runs haven’t sent her through the forest every morning moving deeper and deeper she had developed all the skill balancing she needed to move easily through the wooded area. The only problem she found herself having was the fact that she didn’t really know where she was suppose to be going only to head towards the area of the attack. She would have to be careful to avoid the people that were already coaming the woods a bunch of locals now armed with high powered rifles could be some what dangerous after all. The greatest problem for Kate wasn’t the risk of being seen or locating the creature it was the since of responsibility that she now felt herself having to deal with.

The thought that it was the same bear that she had Jack had encountered while out swimming just wouldn’t leave her mind. Why she didn’t kill the animal when she had the chance? The question kept haunting her as she ran along it was true that she wasn’t as powerful then as she currently found herself and the fight would have been significantly more dangerous for her and Jack should the bear had gotten the advantage of her. At the time she had been happy to just drive it off and not think about it anymore. She couldn’t use this to justify not killing the bear to herself though as she still felt she would have won the fight and then she wouldn’t have to think about if it was the same animal or not. Without this knowledge though and not being able to justify letting the animal go in her own eyes the only thing Kate could resolve is that if the child died she was at least in part responsible and she needed to help make sure it didn’t hurt anyone else.

A flash of anger ran through Kate though it wasn’t solely placed on the bear but also on herself. That was the anger Jack had seen in Kate’s eyes before she had left anger with herself for not thinking of what could happen and taking steps to prevent it. These thoughts continued to torment Kate until she heard the sound of foot steps. Slowing her pace down Kate turned in the direction of the noise able to see a few men walking around with their rifles Kate quickly realized she was near the search party as the men slowed down Kate wondered what they were doing and then she nearly hit herself. Realizing that as one of the men checked the area that he was currently searching for any sign of were the bear might have went it had been wounded several times after all so it was bleeding.

Kate could kick herself for having ran off without thinking had she brought some form of firearm she could at least ask them for some directions now if she came up and asked what they had found they would probably ask her where her weapon was. Looking at them for a moment they didn’t notice her as of yet focusing on the task at hand plus Kate still stood a good deal off her senses having become heightened to keep up her speed allowed her to keep her distance. As the men took a moment to converse Kate listened in they at first talked about the child before switching back to the hunt. Kate quickly took off the moment they finished talking and gave her a better idea of just what direction the animal might have went in.

As Kate moved about she was able to make up for her lack of skill with simple speed as she out distanced the police officers and volunteers who were now searching the woods. By occasionally ducking back in towards the main search area Kate quickly found that she could check if she needed to move further out or not. Of course with all this moving back and forth people did see her a few of them even shouted warnings to her about a dangerous animal roaming the area. She was sure she left a few of them quite stunned when she took off without bothering to say a word to them. As Kate widened her search faster then the hunters there was the thought that she could leave it up to them to find the animal but then Kate wouldn’t know if it was the same one she had driven off earlier.

Jack set at home watching the hours tick away as he looked at the tv they were covering the hunt for the bear in a little side window now. It had been a few hours since Kate had went off to join the search and he hadn’t heard a thing from her. Even though he knew she was already fairly powerful he found that he couldn’t stop worry about her safety and if she would be coming back or not. Standing up Jack finally made his way into the bathroom and began to shower realizing that setting around and staring at the tv the entire time wouldn’t be helpful for anyone. Jack missed the part where they spoke of some of the people seeing a woman running around in the woods a good thing as it at least saved Kate from a lecture about being careful.

Finishing with a quick shower Jack dressed comfortably figuring that he wouldn’t be going to bed for a while. Instead he went on into the kitchen and began to make a rather large cup of coffee as well as to cook dinner for two. Kate hadn’t eaten since her work out at least to Jack’s knowledge and he imagined all the running around and physical exercise would make her hungry and if it didn’t then he could just write it off as comfort food. As night grew closer Kate could tell that some of the people were leaving to try again later it didn’t surprise her she had no idea of just how far she was out. As Kate moved through the woods though a glimpse of something metallic caught her eyes in the last flickering of the sun light. Looking in the direction she walked towards the slight glint and saw what she had been looking for.

The arrows being rather costly and new had managed to actually shine some. The bear that had them imbedded into itself turned its head to look in Kate’s direction. As Kate looked back at it she imagined it was the same bear as at the lake but she could be sure. It was clear the animal was going to attack her though it had just been injured after losing a meal. “ Are you the same one?” The animal let out a roar as Kate spoke and charged her instead of striking the animal though Kate found herself side stepping it and avoiding the attack. Still trying to see if it was the same bear or not she just couldn’t tell. Kate couldn’t help but feel some hurt as she realized she would never be sure if it was the same animal or not if she could have prevented the child from being attacked.

At least she wouldn’t have to think about that with this bear though as it came at her again. As a arm that could lift 430lbs of force struck out with inhuman speed her fist connected with the bears head. A moment later Kate found herself covered in red from the impact her fist having shattered the animal’s skull. Kate was took back by this as she had expected herself to be hitting harder then before but not enough to kill the animal in one punch. Her thoughts didn’t stay on this for long though as she looked at the animal which was now missing a head. She had hoped that she would feel better if she found the animal and dealt with it herself. All she could do now is wonder if it was the correct animal or not. A part of her truly desired to think that it wasn’t the same animal as before and that she couldn’t have prevented the child being attacked.

The feeling of guild she found within herself wouldn’t simply let her go with this as she looked at her now blood stained hand she wondered if the blood of a child was on it as well. Taking a moment to console herself she couldn’t help out with the past but at least she could resolve that she wouldn’t let such a thing get away from her again. She would at least have time to think about it on her way home as she looked around and realized she had no idea where she was at the moment. Having focused so much on the search for the animal she hadn’t been paying attention to how close she was to any main roads. This got a shrug from her as she took off on the direction she at least thought she had came even if she was lost after all she would just need to find a road and then she could find her way back home.

Jack set looking at the clock as three in the morning rolled around he heard the front door opening. Looking towards it a rather emotionally drained Kate stepped in the door and look at him. At first moving to give her a hug Kate stopped him. “ I need to wash my hands.” Jack looking down at her right hand most of the blood had been taken off by the wind but Kate still felt a need to clean it. Heading on into the bathroom Jack could tell she was feeling responsible for something more then killing an animal. Having spent so much time with Kate he had a good idea of just what that was though.

“ I went ahead and prepared dinner though I think by now it is more like breakfast why don’t you finish washing up and join me?”

“ Sure be out in a second.” Kate came out of the bathroom a few moments later and joined Jack at the table. Looking at the stake and other dishes Jack had prepared Kate guessed he had spent most of the time she was gone cooking.

“ You know Kate that bear and the one you fought at the lake probably were totally different animals. I mean they are plenty of bears in these woods.”

“ Not plenty that attack people.” Jack swallowed as his attempt to console Kate didn’t work in the least. It was true though that the odds of two bears being to the point that they would attack humans and living in the same area were low he didn’t really know what to say.

“ Besides I hope it was the same animal to be honest I know that means I am at least partly responsible for that child being attacked. Still it also means that there isn’t another one still roaming around looking for easy prey.” Jack nodded his head in agreement though he didn’t like Kate taking any of the responsibility on herself. Had she continued fighting the animal at the lake it could have ended up in her getting killed considering the difference in her abilities at that point and what she currently found them at. This wouldn’t help Kate’s feelings of guilt though and he knew it as he ate though he resolved he wouldn’t tell Kate about what had happened at mid night. The child had died in the hospital despite the medics best efforts to save the kids life. He would have to be careful to beat Kate to the tv for the next few days but in her depressed state he doubted that would be too much trouble.

The run back had been good for Kate as it had allowed her to burn off some energy. It had taken her roughly a hour to find a road she had managed to get herself quite lost after all but her speed had made up for that. She had managed to get all the tears out of her system and now all she felt was emotionally drained. Jack seemed to notice this as he didn’t make any attempt at conversation or to ask her about what had happened. He simply assumed that she had done what she had set out to do. The fact that Kate was tired was apparent though as Jack was actually able to finish his meal before her but instead if simply leaving he stayed and chose to watch her. Kate didn’t speed up or slow down as she ate but continued at a nice pace until her plate was clean of everything.

As Kate put her fork down Jack took there plates and put them in the dish washer then returning for Kate he placed his arms around her from behind. Kate’s hand came up to rest on his while he partly pulled her from her seat her body seeming to follow him mechanically. Getting Kate to set down on a couch he removed her shoes for her before taking a spot next to her then leaning back. Jack pulled Kate down upon him as he did this he couldn’t help but be grateful that Kate’s body weight hadn’t increased along with her strength or he imagined he would be finding it rather had to breath at the moment. It was a odd change of position as for the past several weeks he had been used to resting on top of Kate now he felt her 180lbs resting on top of him and he was once again grateful for the exercise routine.

Kate’s body was heavy but it was warm and felt nice and as Jack let her rest on him he couldn’t help but smell the sent of her hair. It was a pleasant moment which caused him to struggle to keep his mind off sexual matters Kate was in need of comfort for the moment and he didn’t want his lust to ruin that. Running his hands along Kate’s hair her chest settled down upon Jack’s chest as her hands took hold of him. All the coffee Jack has consumed before Kate’s arrival paid off as he managed to keep awake longer then Kate. Feeling her drift off to sleep he thought to get up so that he could give her a real pillow when he found himself having a problem. With Kate’s 180lbs on top of him and her arms now wrapped around him he found there was no way to get up without taking her off the couch.

“ Alright lovely lady if that is what you want I will be your Cuddly.” Jack had started to use teddy bear but feeling it didn’t fit the moment he had went with Kate’s nick name for him. Kate’s body having sensed him trying to leave she had instinctively tightened her grip so that Jack couldn’t simply slip away from her. As Jack could not leave and he found the position comfortable though restricting he nodded off shortly after Kate did.

Kate’s eyes drifted open as she felt the sun light streaming in through the windows. Looking around for a moment it was one of the few times as of late that she had not been up before sunrise. As she looked around she felt better then she had the previous day having had the time to recoup the rest had helped a lot as well. Now looking down at Jack she smiled and debated on waking him up. Placing her lips against his she gave him a light kiss instead and stood up. Her first notion was to go for a jog but she quickly decided against that realizing that people would still be hunting for the bear. She wondered how they would react if they found it considering that they would find it with its head smashed in.

As Kate made her way into the kitchen she took her time washing her hands. Thinking on the previous night she couldn’t help but feel at the very least she had learned a lesson about dealing with dangerous creatures. She was no longer in the emotionally dead state she didn’t seem to feel any of the anger or sadness she had earlier on either only a form of resignation that the event had changed her. Turning off the sink and laying out a few pots and pans Kate giggled as she opened the dish washer and realized Jack hadn’t turned it on the previous night. The volume of pots and pans that felled it made Kate wonder if Jack had actually tried for more dishes then he had served. Checking in the refrigerator Kate was quite sure of this the meal had been a rather nice one after all and she doubted Jack had any real experience cooking such things.

Putting on a rather large pot of oatmeal Kate didn’t feel so much like eating meat as she desired something sweat. Emptying out the coffee pot Kate also put on a fresh bit of coffee figuring Jack would need some help waking up considering that they had both been up rather late in the morning. Kate’s body simply allowed her to wake up more quickly then Jack as it took her less time to recover her energy despite the amount she had expended running around the previous day.

Jack awoke roughly 25 minutes after Kate though it wasn’t because of the food cooking or the sun. Rather it was thank to the multiple cups of coffee he had consumed while waiting for Kate and the lack of any bathroom brakes. This didn’t surprise Kate as she had just emptied the pot and seen how little was in it. Jack didn’t have time to notice the food as he woke up and was instantly glad to find Kate had woken up before him thus her weight was no longer settled on top of him. He could hear Kate’s giggle as he jetted off towards the rest room and she heard the door slam shut. Jack didn’t mind being laughed at by Kate especially when he considered how drained she had seem the previous night he was glad to see that she was at least feeling better. He couldn’t be sure if she was just covering up her emotions or not but at least she seemed to be doing better. “ Don’t forget to wash your hands.” Jack grinned as he turned on the sink hearing Kate’s voice calling out to him.

Kate was smiling when Jack came out of the bathroom as he came out he took a moment to look at her to try and see if she was hiding something. It was a fairly useless attempt as one that had spent a good deal of his time in labs looking through a lense or a computer screen Jack was not the best at reading people so he did the next best thing. “ So are you feeling better you looked pretty tired last night?”

“ I am feeling better still a little sad about what happened but well it is already done. I guess the only thing I can do now is learn from the experience and hope it never happens again.”

Jack nodded in agreement as he wondered just what Kate had learned. The only thing he could come up for the moment was make sure you kill a dangerous animal when you have the chance not the most environmentally sound way of thinking but Jack wasn’t environmentalist. As he made his way over to Kate he could smell three things total cooking oatmeal, chocolate and biscuits. Walking around behind her he looked into the two pots Kate had set out seeing a plentiful amount of each.

“ Indulging our sweet tooth today?” Kate gave a some what guilty smile as it really was more then she normally prepared really as she looked at the oatmeal she wondered if she would be able to finish it all.

“ I can indulge my sweet tooth once in a while.” Jack nodded his head in agreement as he went ahead and set out two plates as well as two classes. Feeling his with some orange juice he took a seat at the table and began to work on the glass as he considered what would be the best thing to talk about. He didn’t want to risk talking about the previous day the less Kate thought about the bear attack the better as far as he was concerned.

“ Your braking a lot of limits recently to bad you can’t compete in professional sports anymore.”

“ Oh and just who says I can’t?” Jack looked up from his glass starting to reply he considered the question. It was true Kate was no longer human but he didn’t know of any laws that dis allowed her to compete in sports. It wouldn’t be fair that was true enough as he doubted there was any other super beings wondering around the pro athlete circuit.

“ I guess no one.” Kate grinned as she lifted the pot from the burner and began to empty a rather large amount of oatmeal into Jack and her plate followed by the chocolate. Jack rose to retrieve his plate but stopped in his tracks as he watched what happened next. Kate opening the oven checked the biscuits as she reached up for a mitten she stopped herself recalling the time in the shower. She simply reached in with her exposed hand and took the hot tray pulling it out she could feel the temperature change as her fingers touched the pan but it wasn’t enough to hurt her as she drew it out. Jack just looked on as he figured Kate had the oven for around 400 degrees fahrenheit. Seeing the look of shock on Jack’s face Kate grinning recalling her promise to show off around him as much as she could. Instead of using a fork to remove the biscuits she instead proceeded to simply lift them from the pan with her fingers placing several on each plate. She then proceeded to hold her hand up showing Jack that she had not been burned in the least.

Walking over to Kate Jack looked closely at her hand then placing his hand on the back of hers moved it to his cheek. The hand was warmed by the pan but it wasn’t a unpleasant amount of heat seeming that her hand resisted heating up rather well. That didn’t surprise him though considering how heat resistant it had just proven itself to be. Kate then proceeded to lightly run her hand along Jack’s cheek before picking up the plates and setting down at the table. Jack in his some what shocked state followed shortly behind her and took his spot opposite of her as usual. “ Now since when have you been able to do that?”

“ I would say for a little while now I figured I could do it after a shower though. I actually turned it to pure hot water and it didn’t burn at all it felt nice but not hot like I wanted it.” Jack gave Kate the look of a man that had been taking cold showers for the last week and not being sure why. He had figured it was Kate but decided not to bring it up to her now that he knew she was using pure hot water he resolved he would have to bath at least a hour after Kate in order to give the heater time to feel up again. Kate giggled lightly at the look on Jack’s face and began to tear her biscuits in two covering them in a heavy layer of oatmeal and chocolate. Jack followed suit though he ate more slowly then ate as the food was still hot. Even without realizing it Kate was actually putting on a show for Jack as he had to take his time to cool every little bite while she could just put a solid spoon fool in her mouth and have no reaction at all.

“ No way I am going to keep up with you now.” Kate grinned as she noticed Jack having to take time cooling his food before he could eat it. It was actually some what amusing in her opinion as she found her body’s alterations coming in more and more handy. The thought of just how tough her skin had toughened up made her wonder if she had been shot the previous day would have it been fatal. Thinking back to the weapons she saw the men packing she resolved that if it hadn’t been fatal it would have done some serious damage to her still she could wonder about a small hand gun at least. The thought that she could test the theory and see if she could indeed withstand such a shot did cross Kate’s mind however she quickly pushed it away. That wasn’t exactly something you tested on a whim though she would have to bring up some safer test to Jack later.

“ I can’t finish this.” Kate looked over towards Jack seeing that he had eaten roughly 1/3 of his food while she was nearly finished with hers. Looking at the amount she had given him and herself she had given him and herself a good deal more then normal. It was odd though as she considered that she and Jack had been sharing meals for a few months and thus he had adapted to eating the portions she normally fixed herself. As she considered the amount of oatmeal though she was surprised to find that she wasn’t feeling rather over stuffed herself.

“ Strange I don’t feel over stuffed I don’t feel hungry but I don’t feel bloated either. Want me to finish that for you?” Jack only nodded as he noticed a more curious tone to Kate’s voice as she took the plate and began to work on finishing her own and then his. Up until now Kate had been doing just fine only eating her normal amounts of food thus Jack hadn’t stopped to consider that her stomach had altered itself. With all the changes going on inside her body he supposed her stomach might have adapted so that it could handle more just in case. Then again there was the matter of her increased strength and the fact that it seemed to radiate through out her entire being. Considering the fact that Kate could bench press slightly over a ton Jack wondered how much pressure her jaws now exerted as she ate.

“ Kate I am going to go order some more testing supplies while you finish eating.” Kate only nodded having just taken a mouth full of chocolate and biscuits. She watched for a moment as Jack headed down the stairs before focusing back on her food. Jack made his way to the computer screen bringing it up he began to search through various items wondering if he could find something to test just how much force Kate was now exerting when she bit down it was a some what silly in his mind but he found himself curious. There was also the matter of her teeth of course as he wondered if her bones were strengthening with her body. The thought of what could happen if her bones failed to adapt with her muscles was one that he didn’t like at all. He felt that most likely they where but still wanted to conduct a test.

Kate sighed as she felt the alcohol soaked cotton swab against her skin 32 weeks into getting her power and she still wasn’t use to this. Jack had been taking small mounts of Kate’s blood roughly weekly in order to try and keep up with the changes going on inside her body. This was one of the few things Kate found tiring as she grew weary of the little needle prick she felt almost on a weekly bases. Had it been a daily she might have been able to adapt to it she imagined but she didn’t want to give Jack any ideas she wasn’t donating blood after all. Jack opened the drawer to one of the desk looking at the various medical equipment he prepared the needle and container.

Looking at Kate he could tell she didn’t like this but it was a necessary part of the research. Placing his fingers on her arm he began to try to locate the vein at first this had been difficult and actually been partly luck thanks to his lack of experience working with such things. Having had so many test tries with Kate though he was actually getting fairly good at locating her veins. Locating his query Jack removed the cap from the needle and placed it against Kate’s arm. A moment later he bore down harder then what one would for a normal person thanks to Kate’s skins strengthening he had found himself having to push down harder and harder in order to get through her skin. As he pushed down though he found today he was having to use more force then even he liked and Kate’s skin proved unyielding to the needle.

Kate wondered what was taking so long and if Jack was just picking on her knowing how much she detested getting her blood taken so often. “ Hmm it seems your skin doesn’t want a needle going through it no more then the rest of you does.” Kate grinned at Jack’s comment though she didn’t look towards the needle finding the site of it going into her skin some what sickening. Kate could handle seeing the blood of others but she still had trouble seeing her own blood going out of her veins. A moment later she heard a slight clink and a slight gasp from Jack. Looking down she noticed the needle though now it was in two having broken against her skin.

“ Oh cool did it brake against my skin?” Jack picked up the needle looking at it for a moment he had expected Kate’s skin would resist but he didn’t expect to start braking needles so soon.
