A Date with Destiny

Caroline arrived and saw nothing of note, but soon enough, BARE-E materialized and was still naked as she was before.

"I see you dressed sensibly. We have a few tests to perform. The first is a strength test. According to our calculations, you should be able to life that structure no problem." The hologram explained.

"Can anyone else see you, or just me?" Caroline asked.

"Your implant only affects you, so my programming is catered entirely to your body and mind. No one else can see or hear me."

"So, to anyone else, I will look like a crazy person talking to no one? Fantastic."

"If you like, you may internalize any and all communications. I can read your thoughts, after all."

"Oh God that seems so much worse"

"I find it more honest and faster to communicate."

"You heard that? Ok, fine. I'll just think my replies to you."

Caroline approached the bleachers and took a deep breath. This was the moment that proved the aliens weren't completely perverted psychopaths. As she pulled the bottom of the structure upward, however, nothing happened. She didn't even budge it an inch.

"That's strange. Your muscles are straining, but no new capacity for strength. The scan shows the serum has permeated your cells. Something isn't right. You may go about your day while I communicate with my superiors about what this means, and I'll contact you with our findings."

With that, Caroline was alone again, so she went to her classes and helped out Dr. Lee again and then returned to her dorm for the night. She stripped off and took a shower in the communal bathroom. As she thought about the morning she had, and how many people saw her naked body, she felt her body feel warmer and a tingle between her legs that was familiar but rare lately. She began to rub her nipples u till they were erect and prepared for an extended shower as the water washed over her sensitive breasts.

"I think we have discovered a breakthrough!" BARE-E shouted.

"GAH! What the fuck?!" Caroline shouted.

The naked woman yanked her shower door open to chastise the hologram, but instead of it sliding open, the handle broke off in her hand!

"Whoa." Caroline said.

"Yes!" Cheered BARE-E.

"How? You mean I'm..." Caroline could barely think of the words.

"You're super strong!" BARE-E said.

Caroline emerged from the shower in a towel, carefully touching and grasping everything so as not to destroy them. She got dressed and looked at the broken handle from the shower door. She then tried to bend it, but found it just as difficult as when she didn't have powers.

"That's so weird." Caroline said.

"Our breakthrough occurred while you were in that cubicle. Perhaps if you went back inside it, there might be a clue."

Caroline shrugged and complied, but when she tried to bend the broken handle again, she couldn't. The only variable was...not ideal. Shrugging off her towel, she tried again, but failed at first. However, seeing BARE-E there made her try again, and she bent it like it was made of rubber.

"Fascinating." The hologram said.

"It seems I have to be naked in order to be strong? That's just great."

"That's not all. It turns out that an essential hormone found in larger quantities in males is what was the problem."

"So, I need testosterone?"

"No, it is much less potent than that. That is why we didn't think it was the cause. However, we noticed that your increased libido caused this hormone to spike, and that triggered your abilities."

"So, when I'm naked and aroused?"

"Arousal seems to be the root of it. Your nudity seems to be a catalyst for it."

"Great, not only do I realize being horny makes me superhuman, it also means public nudity turns me on."

"Great, so come on outside. There are several tests to perform!"

"What, like this? I can't go outside naked!"
