Beware! New life ahead

Ethel usually took Saturday off since she was Jewish. It was very rare to see her wear any Jewish accessories, and she was very clearly secular, but no one at HR had the balls to confront her about it so she stayed at home or went to the gym. I should mention she had shown us photos from her Bat-Mitzvah where one of them showed the Rabbi very uncomfortable with the muscular 12-year-old girl beside him.

Today was a little different since Finn sent a message in the group chat that he had very important good news, so Ethel made an exception to just come to hear it. As all of us stood in the break room I looked around to really take in all the new shifts in reality; it was one thing to see my memories this morning, a whole nother to see the group of extremely fit and muscular women (+ one man, and a regular old man) in front of me.

Oh! The changes, right. Well, it turns out that after having me, my Mom and Dad decided to do a whole 180 and become pro-bodybuilders, and when I say pro, I mean proooooo. In their prime - around 15 years ago - my dad, even at his 1.41m (4'7.5'') height regularly ranked in the top 4 in quite a few World's Strongest Man competitions. Meanwhile my Mom had participated in the Olympics representing Japan in Hammer Throw during the '96, '00 and '04 Olympics, even getting Gold and setting the current world record (for both men and women) in 2000. Since then they have stepped out of the professional fields and just worked out for their own enjoyment. My mom now looked more like my twin (though I was more muscular then her) and her weather reports have become viral for her regularly ripping parts of her clothes on "accident". My Dad on the other hand, decided to become a coach at a few small local high-schools to help kids who have trouble getting into physical activity.

What this meant is that they helped me get into working out, even though I never became a health-nut like them, and so I met Lili sooner and worked out with her for much longer. I dragged my IKEA buddies with me (other than Nate) much sooner and we all pushed each other to even further ridiculous heights. On one occasion two years go we met Amira, and she and Rosalyn hit it off fairly quickly and I am pretty sure they are dating now. Amira still joined us at work a few days ago, but we didn't need to do introductions this time.

All this meant was that as I looked around me from my lofty height as the third tallest person in the room (yep, that feels weird, I was only barely taller than Finn who was 1.8m (5'10'') tall), I saw a group of insanely attractive people that stood out in this IKEA break room.

Rosalyn and Amira sat on a large sofa, both of them had exceptionally large, thick, muscular legs atop of which were powerful athletic figures with minimal unnecessary fat (except Rosalyn whose breasts and ass, I swear, have only gotten larger and firmer).

They were chatting about something as I turned my attention to Cassie. Cassie's aptitude to working out had blossomed to such an **** extent that, even though she wasn't any taller, she was more muscular than my original Ethel now. Even unflexed her biceps were as big as mine at 67cm (26'') around, when she flexed them, though, they were even bigger than mine. Her tight camp shirt showed off incredible curves, a deep cleavage and a thick 10-pack. Considering the few dozen centimeters between us in height, she was truly huge. She now picked up men at the gym, and there was not a single one who she could not dominate.

Ethel was beyond massive now. 118cm (46.5'') unflexed biceps, sinewy delts and pecs that pushed her breasts a whole 63cm (2') away from her body, wide lats and a 14-pack whose valleys and peaks really resembled a sexy mountain range. Her legs were even thicker than Amira's. She was possibly the strongest human being on earth, if not for Lili - who I will see today in the hospital so I don't need to describe my memory of her now.

Even Finn was fairly muscular now; we stood beside each other - both of us sexy, powerful people and shy beyond belief.

Oh right, there was a conversation going on.

"So, I am not going to be the first to say that we don't really feel like we belong here." We all nodded. "So, I tried to check out some options and my aunt actually answered back. You see, she helped me escape my town and has been giving me financial aid for a while, so I felt ungrateful for asking her for help... She is a fairly successful producer in Hollywood and she wants to create one of those influencer houses, except for muscular women. So, uh, we have a large mansion in Hollywood now..."

There was a short amount of shocked silence before we all began cheering and jumping happily. Nick tried shushing us for about a minute.

"But, but, there are some stipulations." We quieted down. "The first is that she gets a percentage of the revenue and that a stay at the house is implicated on signing a contract. The second is that you must come to a decision by the end of tomorrow since the bus to the mansion leaves Monday morning."

"Well, I have no qualms about leaving." Ethel spoke immediately. "But I want this to be unanimous."

"Me neither, I actually thought about applying to Caltech." Cassie chirped in.

"I have some family in that region." Rosalyn spoke.

"And I am pretty much looking forward to move to somewhere more welcoming." Amira joined

"Oh, you can ignore me, someone needs to help new recruits." Nate barged in before I could speak. "I will treat today as a goodbye party"

"I... I'll need to talk to Lili first. I am sure she would agree, but I have to make sure." Everyone looked at me and nodded.

The rest of our shift we spent lazing about in the shop before turning in our letters of resignation. As I exited the main office I saw Darcy and Calloway; time to have a little bit of fun

I put my arms into a bodybuilding crab pose and started flexing. It didn't take long for the store-issued shirt to start ripping. I flexed harder and harder and both my shirt and trousers grew tighter and tighter before basically exploding off my body, leaving me in a tight bra and bikini. I relaxed my muscles and saw how frozen in fear they were. After putting on my regular overly-revealing clothes I left the IKEA for the last time and bid farewell to the group before reminding them to meet tomorrow in the gym at 1pm to talk to Maddie.

I then easily found a taxi to take me to my next destination, Gia's restaurant: FormmaGia's.

As I stood outside FormmGia's I felt a strange feeling that someone was watching me. Before I reached the door to the quaint restaurant it opened and I was staring into a deep cleavage. The images on her Twitter did not properly show just how tall Gia was; in front of me was a 2.15m (7') dark-skinned woman with a fairly curvy and fit figure I could see under her chef's uniform and apron. Even her white hair that was tied in a neat bun, had a near supernatural luster to it and her skin had no blemishes at all.

She looked in both ways and then grabbed my arm.

"Shhh, come in and we'll explain everything." I didn't even have time to ask a question when she pulled me in with incredible strength. "Zita, I'll be out in the back taking a smoke break." Gia waved to a young woman behind the cash register, and then to the only other patron in the restaurant.

As we rushed through the kitchen and out the back I did try to pull a bit and ask her what was going on, but she was too strong to even notice I was trying to slow her down. She opened the backdoor and I found myself a wide alley with some parked cars and dumpsters.

"Ok, Fredrick, we are alone." She let go of my hand and a man appeared out of nowhere.

"What the f-" Gia put her hand over my mouth; I tried to scream but couldn't, I turned to try to run but she held me in place with her other hand.

What the fuck is happening?!

"It's ok, I am sorry to scare you like this, but we are dealing with a delicate situation here." Fredrick was a squat, seemingly young, man with what seemed like too many strange gadgets and survival equipment on him. He placed what seemed like a small black bracelet on the ground and walked up to me; I could see he glanced at his phone. "Yeah, your readings are higher than yesterday..."

"What... who are you people?" Gia let me go and I stared confused at both of them.

"This... this is going to be hard to explain, but I think if I tell you what happened to me you will understand; I just ask you wait until I finish." Gia crouched a bit. "When I was 18-years-old, my parents just ran away from Italy when they saw what direction Mussolini was taking in the late 30s. We ran to Britain where we tried to blend in and not stand out much. I was a petite young woman and I spent most of my time studying to be a nurse. Yet, but the time of the Blitz we no longer felt safe as we were pushed out of our community. We ran away to the countryside and tried to live quietly and for the most part we succeeded. Then, I started to change... every day I grew bigger, curvier, stronger. No one seemed to notice as over few months I blossomed from a shy countryside nurse to an enormous giantess queen, ruling over Europe from my godly castle. I can't even remember if I enjoyed any of it as it was happening; I only remember a strange being asking me if I wanted more, and I as I saw more images from the war and its atrocities... I said yes. I wanted to stop the unnecessary ****, but at some point I just wanted to see how far this could go. The only friend I had was a young American named Nate who came to serve in the war and fell in love with me, and I loved him back. By the time my castle was the size of Luxembourg, Fredrick came to me, a tiny insignificant man to me then, and he told me the truth of my situation. He warned me that the strange being will return, but they will be a different one from the one I was used to, that they will come to erase all the changes and return me to a world where I remained the countryside nurse. The other option would be for him to take me 'out of reality', I would have my body and memories, but for everyone else reality would return to normal."

"And you said yes..." I quickly understood her implications and looked at Fredrick.

"Yes... Fredrick gave me a bracelet that will allow me to change my body without anyone, not even the strange creatures noticing." I looked at her hand and saw it. "Similarly, that device on the ground makes it so they can't see us."

"But what about Nate? He seemed to remember something, he seemed scared. How did Fredrick even know all of this?" Gia straightened up and Fredrick came to me.

"Ah, well, you see... I am going to have to tell you another long tale... These creatures, they are not gods, no no, they are more like parasites sitting on the very fabric of reality. They have probably been here for centuries, a hivemind of creatures with the ability to shift the very nature of our world... but years of dealing with humans and constant changes and resets have led to them believing they are some kind of omnipotent deities. Every few decades there is this cycle of one of the parasites wanting to 'improve' the lives of a group of random individuals and another one eventually resetting everything. In 1850 I, being born as a triplet with two sisters, was by a mistake left out of the reality shifting. I noticed as my sisters become incredibly powerful women and when reality reset I was the only one to remember. But this meant I noticed the change in our parents. You see, the constant shifting of reality means that those around you have their minds constantly messed with, and some... some are never the same after the reset. While my sisters went on a tour around Europe as the world's Strongest Twins after the reset, I remained behind to help my mother take care of my catatonic father." He stopped and I could see tears running down his pale face.

"So Nate..." I began.

"There are days when he remembers somethings from back then, he comes to the restaurant and we talk for hours until he returns to, well, 'normal'" Gia took out a cigarette and started smoking.

"I wanted to learn more about what happened to my sisters. When I was 40 I found middle-aged texts describing the creatures and of an alchemist who discovered how to 'step away from reality'. People say time is like a river; reality is like many intersecting rivers, the parasites can divert the rivers and change them, but they can't do anything about the shores. I spent the next few years building a device that will allow me to place myself on this metaphorical shore. By the time I was 70 I finally succeeded, the side-effect was that by being on the shore I became unageing. As the decades went by I developed more machinery - to shift my appearance so I could blend in, to become unnoticeable to those creatures, to read reality shifts and more. I found more people who were experiencing changes. I made myself imperceptible so I could travel around the world freely, and I tried convincing the changed people to help me. Only very few agreed and there are many more I could never find. Which brings me to you." My head hurt from the amount of information.

"What can I do? I don't want my friends to be hurt by this." Even thinking about any of them becoming catatonic was horrific.

"Well, first thing's first, they are safe for now. My parents and Nate suffered through more than a year of constant rewriting. You probably don't know this, but one of Maddy Wool's husbands - Dan - has been in and out of a coma for a while. I could not find her in time and I refuse to reveal to her that her happiness is connected to her husband's condition, so don't tell her about what's happening to you!" I was both shocked and not confused by this revelation. "What you can do though, is help us capture one of the parasites and gain an inside ally. I created a device that can take them to the metaphorical shore of our reality, and I know that before one of the hivemind comes to reset the timeline they appear before the person who has been the focus of the change and explain everything. We have tried many times to do this, but either the creature caught on and reset reality before capture, or we captured it and it couldn't live with what the hivemind was doing - resetting itself."

"What makes you think I will succeed?" There was a lot of thoughts running through my mind, but I focused on the now.

"Well, I developed my technology to now limit their powers nearly completely, so we only need to bait one to come." I wonder how many failed attempts he had.

"And how do you suggest I do that?"

"Well... make yourself undeniably noticeable, to the point that the aspects of the hivemind that seek a return to normality come to reset you." A plan clicked in my head.

"I... I am probably leaving to LA this Sunday, I could become a massive celebrity, but I don't know how long it would take..." Their faces seemed a little more hopeful. "Oh! What about if you step off the 'shore' for like a second? I am sure one of those reseters would come."

"Ehh, not a good idea; me and Fredrick have been off reality for so long that if we make ourselves properly known the more violent, destructive aspects of the hivemind will come for us. They don't care about returning things back to normal, they want to destroy whatever stands out." Gia cut in. "That might be the fastest way, but it would be too risky, and not only to us. I do think trying to become a celebrity might be our best shot."

We all nodded, but I noticed that Fredrick was mulling something over in his mind.

"Anyway, I leave you with these: this bracelet will allow you to see us and interact with us here on the shore, this ring will turn into cuffs the moment it senses one of the parasites and this beeper will alert us. We will keep watch." As I put the bracelet and ring on and put the beeper in my pocket, I couldn't help but feel like they were keeping themselves emotionally distant as they walked away and I left the shop.

As I looked down on my incredible body I couldn't help but shiver at the thought the process improving my life was hurting my friends. Am I in over my head? Should I maybe just enjoy this while it lasts? No... no, a dangerous hivemind is playing with too many lives and it needs to be stopped...

Even at the cost of my amazonian form.

Though the best case scenario would be remaining a muscular ultra-model and not having a reality-parasite fucking with me.

Today's change affected Lili much more than anyone else, including Cassie. Working out first with me and then with the group over the span of years pushed Lili to ridiculous heights. In fact, at 1.97m (6'5.5'') tall she was somehow taller now, apparently reality had shifted and Lili's father married a tall, buff cowgirl instead of a short bubbly bimbo. Lili was now more muscular and powerful than Ethel and Cassie combined.

The hospital had to keep her on special bed used to hold rhinos by a local zoo (+many comfortable mattresses) due to how heavy she was now. In this new timeline when the Neo-Nazi fuck hit our old Fiat, Lili still entered a coma, but mostly from shock. She barely actually got hurt, instead both the cars were completely totaled and the piece of shit rocketed out of his vehicle and broke most of his bones on the asphalt. What this meant is that we now had much more of the lottery money left, and that the hospital had called on the way to tell me Lili was ready to leave.

As I waited outside her room I could hear Lili's mighty footsteps and feel the floor slightly shaking. She had to crouch a bit and turn sideways in order to squeeze through the double-doors. Her tight dark black shirt and shorts did nothing to cover her magnificent form - long powerful legs that were thicker than the the bodies of the average human being while still being sleek; a titanic, curvy ass leading up in an hourglass manner to protruding 16-pack abs above which stood out FF cups pushed forward by godly pecs and wide delts and lats. Her biceps, even unflexed, were 140cm (55'') around and they actually morphed some of her many tattoos in funny ways. Her skin was pale yet had a heavenly sheen and her short white hair basically shined even in the cheep hospital fluorescent.

Fuck, she was so hot.

I didn't even notice the tears that rolled down my cheeks as she came to me and gently picked me up, and kissed me. Our bountiful breasts squished against each other, causing both of us to get sensual shudders all throughout our basically nude figures. She put me down and we started heading out of the hospital.

"I see my absence hadn't made you forget leg day, Rin-Bear." She jokingly said as she softly moved her hand down my left quadricep, I giggled. "Ohhh, there's the shy amazon I missed."

"I... I missed you so much more; more than you might realize." How do I explain any of this to her? Do I? "For now we should head back because there's a lot we need to talk about. Though I am not sure there is a taxi out there that can hold both of us..."

"What, too tired to run to the apartment? Want me to pick you up and run there? I am dying for a good workout and it's only a few kilometers from here " As silly as it sounds, that idea was so hot I just nodded excitedly like a little girl.

As soon as we filled the final forms and paid the final expenses and left the hospital Lili picked me up like on our wedding day and starting jogging. I say jogging but she was unofficially breaking world records and cracking some of the pavement.

"Soooo, what did you want to talk about?" She had an easy time talking.

"Well, first we need to get a new car, preferably a monster truck. We can, uh, use some money I got from a the lottery... well a taxi driver I know won, but with my numbers... Second, The Amazon Squad is meeting Maddy Wool tomorrow, which is great, fantastic. Third is uh, Finn's aunt has a influencer mansion thing in Hollywood for the squad, but there are stipulations and I am not sure you would be ok with considering how much you refuse sponsorships... And finally, we all quit and the bus to LA leaves on Sunday, woooo, that was a lot." And it wasn't all of it...

"Ok... yeah, that was a lot. We should get a new car when we reach LA, and make sure it's a real big monster truck." She somehow answered all the topics in a single line.

"Are you sure? I know how much you hate selling out."

"I am and always will be, but we still have not seen the contracts and I am more certain Finn's aunt will realize she is missing out by not having me there... I mean, look at me! I am only not that big on Instagram because the damn app refuses to promote me. I am more surprised you are so willing to go along with this." I looked around and saw we were getting close to the apartment.

"I mean... I am more open to the whole celebrity lifestyle... yeah..." I knew I sounded very unconvincing. "And I want to stay together with the IKEA gang."

"Somehow that second reason sounded more honest, is there something you are not telling me? You don't have to if you don't want." She smiled down at me, understanding as always. "Well, we're here."

She let me down softly and we walked into our apartment. Most of the money we had we used to pay rent and strengthen the floor and beds so it could handle us. We entered one by one, squeezing through the "small" door, I mean, it was a normal door but not when you are the most powerful couple in the world.

After dinner and a shower we lay nude in our massive bed, our bodies glistening in the moonlight. Lili got up and put her legs on either side of me, knees on bed, face barely visible behind her breasts. She stroked my breasts gently and slowly slid her fingers down through my nipples, to my abs and finally by slowly inserting her right hand into my slit. With her left hand she picked me up from the bed and removed her right hand from my pussy as she brought it to her mouth while her right hand went down to her own clitoris. I grabbed my breasts and straightened up, my head brushing the ceiling. my legs straddled Lili's thick neck at which point we started to move in sync.

In, out, in and out. Every minute we shifted positions, Lili lead and I followed. We knew our limits, we rehearsed our safe words - mine was Shipoopi, hers was Caramelldansen. We raced to see who could cause the other to cum first, often we both won. Nipples were sucked, skin was scratched, clitorises were licked and muscles were flexed to nearly twice their size.

Twenty minutes later we resorted to the most basic and assured method of climax - scissoring on the floor at which point why wispy gasps and Lili's sensual moans crescendoed to orgasmic screams of explosive pleasure. The room shook and tomorrow morning we may get some complaints, usually we don't. As we got up and had a post-coital long kiss we didn't really care about the wet spot on the floor and climbed back into bed, panting and exhausted.

Before she well asleep, I could not fight the urge anymore.

"Lili... what if I told you that a few days ago I was short and pudgy?" I turned around to face her.

"Well... I can tell you are being honest, but I can't say I believe you. So, how do you explain turning into an amazon goddess?" she had her natural smile on.

"A... well, extra-dimensional, reality-altering parasite. I am honestly not truly sure." I was not lying, but even I heard how ridiculous it was.

"Look, it sounds wacky, but I am sure you have a reason to believe it and I will support you no matter what. Though if I see red flags I will be contacting a psychologist."

"That's reasonable. Good night." Maybe I should convince Gia and Fredrick to tell her...

"Night, Teddy-Rin." She kissed my nose and started snoring a few minutes later.

I could not sleep, rather I did not feel tired at all. I stood in front of the window when all of a sudden a wave of energy hit me.

Oh shit, I was experiencing the change live!

All my muscles starting flexing and unflexing, growing larger and larger. My perspective got further from the floor and my eyesight was obscured more and more by my expanding breasts. My ass got thicker and my skin somehow even healthier my voice got sultrier and more sensual. I held back my orgasmic sigh as the transformation stopped.

I was glorious, still an introvert, but a glorious introvert. My muscles looked like a near copy of Lili's, except my body was 2.12m (6'11.5'') tall and with MM cups. I could hear the bed groan behind me as Lili's body somehow piled on more muscles, though she did not get much taller this time.

I didn't have time to think about how the rest of the gang had changed when something else caught my attention. I had forgotten I put Fredrick's bracelet on, so seeing Gia outside the window shocked me.

By that I mean I saw Gia's 50m (164') tall, uber-muscular and sexy nude form leaning on the building on the other side of the street. I took the bracelet off and she was gone, so were any of the cracks in the street her immense size had caused. I put it back on and opened the window.

"I came to see that you were doing well. I remember staying up to experience the change." Her voice was orgasm-inducing and her was stunning, even in the moonlight.

"Yeah, it's incredible." I might have orgasmed a little too much today. "Did you ever tell anyone?"

"I told Nate at some point, but he rarely believed me when I brought it up and unlike you I knew of no one else who knew the truth." she seemed much more emotionally honest now, probably helped she didn't need to hide her form.

"This isn't my full form btw, I rarely take it if ever." Can she read my mind? nah, probably a coincidence. " I am a little tired, this was a nice chat. There are others out there like me, specifically LA has a couple - Suzie and her wife Rhianne. Fredrick found them in the 70s, I will tell them to prepare a welcome for you. Good night Erin."

She walked away towards the Great Salt Lake, every step she grew bigger. I could feel the ground shaking more and more, yet the moment I took the bracelet off the city returned to its usual quiet night. By the time I put it back on I could see, even from my apartment, the Titaness bathing in the lake, a few kilometers tall and with musculature and beauty beyond description.

I could see now why she was The Queen of Europe.

I had to **** myself to take the bracelet off and go to bed in order to sleep.

Tomorrow was the final day of my old life.
