Alex stood there with Jaden’s tiny trembling form in her right hand. Her left hand covered her mouth as the tears continued to stream down her face. She watched as he shook fearfully, still trapped in the darkest corners of his mind.

“Jaden…” She called out sobbing, choking on his name as it came out of her mouth.

He didn’t answer. His eyes were wide open as the she had successfully distorted his reality and thrown in back into the horrors he experienced during his childhood.

Alex slowly placed her back against her bedroom wall and slid down to her butt. She held Jaden in her hand as she tried to wipe some of her tears away from her face.

“Hey…Snap out of it ok.” Said gently as she used her thumb to rub his back a bit, but nothing changed. “Jaden…” She called out again, wiping another set of tears from her face.

He still shook as the memories continued to play over and over in his head.

“I’ll be good daddy, I promise.” He said, sounding terrified of what his father had done to him in the past.

Alex slowly bit her lip as she gently laid him down on the carpet in front of her and looked at him. She couldn’t believe that she, herself, had done something this horrific. Jaden had wanted nothing but to try and get along with her, but she was an ass from the start and she knew it.

“I…I didn’t mean for any of this to happen.” She sobbed a bit more. “I just….I just wanted to get Ryan back for everything and….Shit!” She screamed as she grabbed the nearest thing that was close to her that wasn’t Jaden and slung it across her room with force, causing it to crash into the wall, shattering it instantly.

She cupped both of her hands over her face and cried in it. “Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!” She screamed as she removed her hands and looked down at the trembling form in front of her. “I’m sorry…” She said sadly as a small sad smile was forced on her face.

“I don’t know what to do…..” She said again, trying to talk Jaden out of the trance that he was in. “But that’s not going to stop me from trying.” She said as she gently scooted her hand underneath him and lifted him up slowly.

She looked around her room and found what she was looking for. A soft plushy like pillow that was knocked onto the floor during her incident with Ryan. She slowly walked towards it and picked it up off the ground, placing it on her bed. It was her favorite pillow that she would go nowhere without, even at her size now.

She remembered how she nagged and nagged that if she had to grow, then so does her favorite keepsake. She smiled at the thought as she gently laid Jaden on top of it.
“I’m sorry…..” She said again as the sad smile on her face disappeared and her tears returned.

She sobbed as she watched the tiny human life in front of her not show any signs of getting better. She was clearly clueless on how to correct this, but she knew she wasn’t going to leave his side until she did.

Her mind wrapped around the image of his tiny form and replayed what she had done. All the things she had said to him since the first time they met. The attitude that she gave him, the unnecessary roughness she put him through.

She remembered when she held his tiny form over the skillet, ready to drop him in at a moment’s notice. She also remembered how she carelessly stepped on him multiple times and accused him of being a giantess sex loving freak.

All the things she blamed on him she was really directing towards Ryan and she knew it, but the harsh fact of life was it wasn’t Ryan she took her frustrations out on.

As the tears slowly rolled down her cheek, with her being lost in her thoughts about the previous event her cellphone rung, shocking her back to reality.

She quickly turned her head towards her phone and saw Ava’s picture come up. She gulped as she slowly walked towards her phone and gently picked it up. She stared at it for a second as the phone continued to vibrate in her hand.

She was scared. Scared to tell her best friend of her actions and scared that her normal sized roommate wouldn’t make it through the ordeal.

With a deep breath she answered her phone and placed it to her ear.

“….Hello.” She immediately sobbed.

“Alex!” Ava shouted in the receiver. “I’ve been trying to call for the pass 15 minutes now, what the hell have you been doing?” She asked.

Ava was somewhat alarmed when Alex didn’t answer the phone the first couple of times she called, but was hoping that it was all just in her head. “Where’s Jaden?” She asked right after her first question, not really giving Alex the chance to answer it.

“I forgot his clothes at my house and I came back to get it for him, but it started basically hailing outside and you know we giantess can’t walk around in bad weather like this, just in case there are regulars walking around outside. “Ava said as she peered out her living room window, watching as the weather continued to get worse.
She couldn’t even see the road let alone another regular who may have gotten caught out there.

As much as she wanted to get back to Alex’s apartment she didn’t want to risk stepping on someone and they just so happened to not take their durability pills.

“So tell him I’ll be over as soon as the storm calms down ok?’ Ava said, but noticed that Alex hasn’t said anything in response. “Hello? Alex?” Ava called, speaking in the receiver as she heard her best friend nearly choke from her sobbing so much. “Alex….Alex what’s wrong?” She asked her, concern for a friend quickly taking over.

Alex didn’t answer right away as she placed her hand over her eyes and cried into it as she held the phone up to ear. “Alex….Alex!” She called out, now really worried about her friend.

“….Ava…..” Alex managed to say in-between her sobs. “….I messed up…….I messed up bad.” She finished as Ava’s eyes shot up in horror as she quickly knew what her best friend was talking about.

“Alex….You didn’t...” Ava paused as her jaw dropped at the thought of the tiny guy that she played with early that day, was gone from this world.

“…Just please….Come over…He needs help…” She sobbed again. “Ava….I don’t know what to do.” She cried as Ava sat on the phone and listened to her best friend cry her heart out as she took a deep breath, trying not to get wrapped up into her emotions either.

“Alright…” She answered slowly. “Give me a second.” She ended the phone call after her last statement and Alex just sat there as her best friend hung up on her.

She pulled her knees up and wrapped her arms around them, curling up into a giantess ball. “Am I really that mean of a person?” She asked herself. “Am I really that messed up in the head, that I can’t tell the difference between the one that hurt me and the person I’m hurting?” Her expression took on an depressive look as she turned her head towards the trembling boy, lying on her favorite pillow.

“….Why didn’t you just leave?” She sadly said as she lowered her head back to her knees and eyed the ground. “You would have been better off if Ava just kept you.” She sighed.

Meanwhile Ava opened the door of her apartment and stared outside at the oncoming storm that was pouring onto the earth. “Damn it….I Swear Alex you….Ugh!” She shouted as she was still second guessing on running out into the storm recklessly.

She knew that she could barely see in front of her as the rain continued to free fall. She really didn’t want to risk a person’s life because she couldn’t watch where she was stepping. Unlike how she played with Jaden, socked foot when he was under her. She had shoes on and unless she was using them in a gentle manner, she really didn’t want to risk a regular person being under them.

“Ugh…Fuck it!” She shouted as she slammed her door to her apartment, quickly locking it and bolted towards Alex’s apartment. She prayed to god that nobody would still be foolish enough to be out in the weather like this, more so trying to brave it walking through the complex.

Her Black Nikes splashed into the water as it landed heavily on the ground as she ran. Her footsteps making a loud trembling sound, to those would be regulars who happened to be near her. With each step that she took as she ran, she managed to look on the ground in front of her and try her best to see if there was any regulars near her, she thanked god there wasn’t.

It didn’t take her long to get to Alex’s front door, giving the fact that she was actually running at full speed. She quickly grabbed the knob and pushed open the door into her apartment, slamming it shut as she got out of the rain.

Alex heard her front door slam shut and gulped again as she slowly rose to her feet and walked to her bedroom door.

She took another look towards Jaden, sighed at his sad state and unlocked her door, opening it to reveal Ava standing in front of it, dripping wet.

The two started at each other for a moment, Ava looking up Alex who was generally taller than she was, even as the giantess they both are.

Alex couldn’t even bare to look her best friend in the eyes as she knew that not only had she sunk to a new low, but knowing that Ava knew she was better than that, even she knew she was.

“Where is he?” Ava asked suddenly as Alex, not even saying a word slowly stepped to the side and pointed to Jaden lying on her keepsake, trembling terribly.

Ava’s jaw dropped as she slowly made her way towards Alex’s bed and knelt down on her knees to get a good look at him. “Oh my god….” She spoke sadly as she quickly turned her head to Alex. “What the hell did you do to him?” She shouted as Alex eyes just fell to the ground as she slowly shook her head.

“I…I don’t know….I lost it and…...” Alex couldn’t finish as she choked on her own words.

Ava gave Alex a stern look and gently cupped Jaden into her hand and walked out of her room, rubbing his back with her index finger. “Hey little guy, it’s going to be alright.” She softly whispered to him as she walked towards his room, leaving Alex standing in her room looking pathetic.

She continued to gently stroke his back as she gently pushed open the door to his room, flicking the lights on and making her way to the giant bed that was placed in there. “I’m here now, see.” She smiled down at him.

She held him in her palm and gently began to stroke his head. “The bad part is over, you can stop worrying now.” She whispered trying to soothe his horrible trance away.

Alex had followed Ava to his room and stood in the door way and watched as Ava gently talked to him, trying to bring him back to the reality that he belonged in. “Look at her.” She thought as continued to watch.

“Why couldn’t I have done that?” Her mind asked her as the question repeated itself in her head. “I’m the one that hurt him, why couldn’t I have done something to make it better?” Alex lowered her head, her eyes falling back to the floor.

“Am I really that weak?” She asked unsure of herself. “Did Ryan really make feel so pathetic….Or did I allow him to?” She questioned in her mind.

Ava bit her lower lip as she slowly caressed Jaden’s body in her palm, she was determined to bring him back, no matter how long it took. “Hey little guy, calm down it’s alright. “ She whispered. “No one’s going to hurt you.” She added as she brought him up to her mouth and whispered in his ear.

Jaden trembling began to slow down as he slowly dropped his hands from his head. His breathing was slowly back under control. Ava let out a relieving sigh as she closed her eyes for a second and continued to caress his body.

“Don’t worry, I’m here for you little guy, you don’t have to worry about a thing.” Ava continued as she looked down at Jaden and saw that his eyes blinked a few times before he tiredly lifted his head up and looked up at her.

“A…Va..’ He called out tiredly.

“Hey little guy.” She smiled softly as she continued to rub his back, loving how adorable he looked in her hand.

“You ok?” She asked him as he slowly sat up a bit and looked around.

“Ye…Yea.” He responded weakly as he placed his right hand on his head. “I’m just….Just…a little….” Without another word Jaden fell over in hand, this time tired from exhaustion.

Ava just gently smiled at him and rubbed him for a few more seconds. “It’s alright little guy, you just go to bed.” She said as she gently leaned over off the giant bed she was sitting on and placed him in his own regular sized bed that sat in the corner of the room next to it.

She placed the covers over him and made sure he was comfortable, slowly getting up and walking towards the exit of the room.

Alex watching the whole thing was amazed that Ava managed to calm him down. She took a few steps back out of Ava’s way as Ava stepped out the room and gently closed the door.

They both walked into the living room, neither of them saying a word as they stood in the center of it.

After a few more moments Alex decided it was time for her to break the silence.

“…Ava….I….”

“WHAP!”

Before Alex could even begin her sentence, she felt Ava’s open palm fly across her face… hard. The sound echoed throughout the living room, but barely making Jaden’s room due to the walls being reinforced during the making of the apartment.

Alex was stunned as her face remained turned to the side. The pain from her best friends palm stung her face, but no more than it nearly broke her heart.

She slowly turned her head back to her friend and saw the anger in her eyes. She never saw Ava like this before. She was always the one that out of the two, that would keep Ava in check if she did something that was out of line. She was the one that would scold her when she did something unbelievably wrong, but now it was different.

She looked down into her best friends eyes as they glared back at her, threatening to give her another slap just in case the first one didn’t get the message across.

Alex slowly brought her left hand to her cheek and her eyes began to water. She looked down at the floor, avoiding Ava’s gaze.

“What the fuck is wrong with you?” Ava screamed at her. “Why the fuck would you go and do something like that to him, when all he tried to do was be your friend?” She questioned, yelling at her as Alex slowly sank to her knees and just simply….Cried.”

“Alex I can’t believe you out of all people would go that far to break someone! I mean for god fucking sakes where do you get off hurting him like that?” She screamed at her as Alex just kept her hand on her face and continued to cry.

“I….I didn’t mean to.” Alex answered in-between tears. “I just….I just.” Alex stuttered.

Ava looked down at her best friend and knew she was hurting, but what she did to her roommate was uncalled for and she had to make sure Alex realized that, no matter what she was going through, an innocent person shouldn’t have to take the punishment someone else truly deserved.

“I just wanted it to stop!” Alex just shouted out as she placed her face in her hands. “I just wanted everything to stop, I thought I had Ryan in my hands and…and I just couldn’t help myself.” She cried out.

“When I saw him earlier and how vulnerable he was, it….It just clicked and I just saw Ryan.” She sobbed as she admitted everything. “I just wanted to make him go away and leave me alone! That’s all I wanted Ava!” She said as her eyes let her tears free fall from her face.

“I wanted the abuse to stop! The constant rapes to stop! Him constantly taking my life away every chance he got….So when I saw Jaden…I just….I just…” Alex couldn’t even finish her pleas as she cried the rest out.

Ava looked down at her friend, her eyes softening as she knelt down and pulled Alex into a comforting hug, allowing the girl to cry on her chest.

‘Shhhh It’s ok.” Ava whispered as she placed her hand on the back of her best friends head and gently rubbed it. “It’s alright.

“No! It’s not alright!” Alex screamed. “I hurt someone! I hurt someone and all he wanted to do was be nice to me!” She hollered as she forced herself to look up at Ava. Her tear strained face was something hard for Ava to watch as Alex forced herself to stare into her best friends eyes. “I’ve been controlled for damn near half my life! Bullied into even giving myself up on multiple occasions just because I didn’t want to be hit again!” She screamed as she buried her face back into her best friend’s chest. “You know what he’s like Ava, he even raped you in front of me when he made you a giantess first and I was still a regular.” Alex cried as Ava recalled the moment where Ryan even forcibility raped her in front of Alex once or twice before.

Ava gritted her teeth as her heart cringed at the pain Alex was feeling; after all it was mutual between to the two because they were so close.

“I was toyed with when he became a mega, almost every day!” She exclaimed. “And now I’m a giantess and I’m still too fucking weak to stop him!” She cried as she was getting caught up trying to speak out her words in-between her tears and coughed a couple of times.

“I didn’t mean to Ava….I just really wanted all that pain to go away.” She sobbed as Ava continued to rub the back of her head gently. Her facial expression read nothing but anger and hate towards the person who was the real cause of this…Ryan.

“That bastard….” Ava whispered to herself as a few tears streamed down her cheeks as she held on to her best friend tighter. “One day Ryan.” She thought. “One day….” She ended in her mind as she looked down at Alex.

She carefully placed her hand under her chin and gently lifted her head up, making her look up at her now gentle smiling face. “At least now you know that it’s not Ryan you’re taking out your frustrations on.” Ava smiled as moved her hand towards Alex face and gently wiped a few tears away.

“It’s alright Alex, Jaden will be fine.” Ava assured. “From what I can tell, none of his bones were broken; if anything he’s just tired that’s all.” Ava finished as she rubbed the left side of Alex cheek where she had slapped her. “All he needs is some rest.”

Alex lifted her hand up to Ava’s hand that rested on her cheek and placed her hand on top of hers. “I’m sorry Ava….I really am.” Alex sobbed as her tears began to stop falling.

“It’s alright Alex, it’s alright.” Ava said as she slowly helped Alex back to her feet and led her into her room.

Alex didn’t want to do anything but get in her bed, which Ava helped her with as she sat down beside Alex who continued to sob.

Ava placed her hand on her head and gently rubbed it as Alex eventually cried herself to sleep.

Ava smile knowing that everything would be alright now. She took a deep breath and looked out the window and noticed that the rain had finally stopped, or at least calm down a bit to a gentle drizzle.

She lifted herself up from Alex’s bed and turned and watch as Alex had forced herself into a peaceful sleep and smiled. “Everything will be fine in the morning.” She said to herself as she walked out of her room and gently closed the door behind her and repeated the process as she left their apartment.

It didn’t take her long to make it back to her place as she unlocked her door, walked in and slammed the door shut. Her teeth grinding against each other as her frustrations began to build as she quickly pulled out her phone and dialed the number she wanted to forget for the longest now.

(At the Facility)

A girl with light brown short hair and dark brown eyes sat at black office desk on the computer, typing seemingly endless information as Ryan sat in his chair behind her, watching something on his giant sized TV in his room.

The girl didn’t look any older then Ava or Alex, which was about 18 or 19. She was dressed in a professional standard attire. Black closed toed heels, black business skirt and a white top that pulled the outfit off. Her skin was lighter than both Alex and Ava, appearing to need somewhat of a tan.

Suddenly the phone beside the girl rung, in which, she just simply reached over and answered it without even looking to see who it was.

“Hello Mr. Garnet’s office, how may I…” She was cut off.

“CRYSTAL PUT THAT BASTARD RYAN ON THE PHONE NOW!” Screamed a highly upset female on the other end of the receiver.

Crystal pulled the phone away from her face for a moment and then with a sigh brought it back to her ear. “Ava what do you want?” She asked her as she continued to type on the computer.

“Not to talk to you, now put Ryan on the phone!” She demanded as Crystal smirked at the pissed off Ava.

“I’m sorry, but if you want to speak to the head of the project you’ll have to make an app….”

“Fuck you Crystal! I don’t care about your damn appointments or any other bullshit you have to say to me! Just put Ryan on the phone!” She screamed as Crystal pulled the phone away from her face, giving it an irritating glare.

“Who is it?” Ryan simple asked her, not turning away from the show he was watching.

Crystal smirked as she put the phone back to her ear and turned towards Ryan. “It’s the giantess classified as Ava Waters’ sir.” She answered, knowing this would piss Ava off anymore.

“Classified?” Ava repeated. “Look here you fucked up impersonation of a regular sized Barbie Doll; I am not a fucking item that you can just give a name to. I’m a damn human being!” Ava shouted in the phone.

“You’re a tool used for military purposes.” Crystal corrected. “And you Ava are by no means human anymore, you are giantess created by the military only to carry out orders giving to you as such. “Crystal argued back.

“Why you fucked up little regular.” Ava growled into the phone.

“Ava it’s best that you watch your mouth when you’re talking to government personnel.” Crystal warned.

Ava gritted her teeth, but you could tell that a smirk appeared on her face as she said this. “Oh, I’ll watch my mouth alright. You just watch my teeth when I slam them down on your regular sized body.” Ava threatened.

“Is that a threat?” Crystal shouted as she leaped out of her chair tightening her grip on the phone.

“More like a promise.” Ava responded quickly.

“Why you dirty…”

“Crystal….Put her on speaker.” Ryan commanded, still not looking in her direction.

Crystal turned her head towards Ryan for a moment and nodded. “Yes…Sir.” Crystal replied as she pressed a button on the phone, which allowed Ava to be heard with in the confide space of Ryan’s room.

“Ava…What is it?’ Ryan spoke out not really concerned for what the girl wanted. “Why are you calling my assistant in such a hostile manner?” He asked her.

“Fuck you Ryan; you know damn well why I’m calling like this!” Ava shouted as Ryan slightly turned his head towards Crystal and the phone. “What the hell is your deal? Why can’t you just leave Alex alone?” She asked as Ryan slowly stood up and walked towards the direction Ava’s voice was coming from.

“Alex is my property and I can do what I want with her and Ava don’t forget you belong to me as well.” He smirked as Crystal slowly got out of his way, just in case anything happened.

“I don’t belong to anybody you ass wipe and neither does Alex, back off Ryan and just leave her the fuck alone!” She screamed into the phone as Ryan got quiet for a moment.

Nothing was said for a short a minute as Ryan began to think about something, but then a dark smile appeared on his face. “Ava…Didn’t Alex receive a new roommate just yesterday, I heard he’s also a regular who’s lost his parents and was disowned by his family members.” Ryan informed causing Ava to gasp on the other end of the phone.
“You know Ava, I don’t normally keep around male regulars as I feel that they are expendable and I personally don’t think that Alex’s new roommate is cut out to be in this military project that I’m overseeing.” Ryan smirked as Ava quickly toned down.

“You wouldn’t…” Ava replied.

“Don’t test my tolerance bitch.” Ryan said smirking as he took charge of the situation. “You’ve seen to have forgotten that I have access to everything you own, the place you stay in, the money to your accounts, I could easily cut your funding off in an instance and leave you with nothing!” He shouted causing Ava to tightly squeeze her phone in her hand as she gritted her teeth.

“You are by no means in any position to disrespect me in the way that you have done, now apologize to me.” He commanded, but he heard nothing.

“Ava, don’t make me repeat myself.” Ryan stated sternly as it took Ava everything in her power not to scream at him again.

“I…I apologize….” Ava said slowly, hating every word that came out of her mouth.

“For what?” Ryan pushed on.

Ava couldn’t believe what she was hearing. He was the one in the wrong and now he was forcing her to apologize to him. “I….I apologize for my rudeness and calling you in such a disrespectful manner.” Ava swallowed her pride, but hated the taste of it.

“Good…Now get the hell off my phone.’ He commanded as he hung up on her and looked at Crystal with a smirk.

(At Ava's Apartment)

Ava was seething as Ryan hung up on her.

She growled a bit as she gripped her phone tightly. "Fuck you Ryan!" She screamed as she launched her phone across the room, causing it to smack against the wall falling on the ground as she walked into her bedroom and slammed the door shut.

(Back at the Facility)

“Crystal, I have new orders for you.” Ryan said as he turned around and made his way back towards his chair. “Look up Alex's new roommate and give me all the information on him as possible. “He grinned darkly as Crystal stood behind his chair and looked up at the large person in charge.

“Yes…Yes sir.” She answered as she slowly got to work.
