Pt.5 Princess in a dungeon
“Derek?”
“Derek!My prince in shining armor please come save me from this dungeon!”
“Don't worry Princess Susan!I'm on my way!”That noble knight said, rushing on his steed to the rescue.
He broke through the door of the castle and fought all the sentries and then came down into my dungeon.
“Have no fear,Derek is here.I'll have you out in a jiffy”My brave knight said
And so he unchained me and we rode into the sunset,suddenly I woke up.It was only a dream…
“If only it were…if only it were”I said to myself waking up due to the alarm going off.
The thoughts with fond hope are crowned that I may see him again.
“I'm still here I see,I wonder how much longer till ,I'm free to see my dream boy again?”I said remembering Derek,he truly is my knight in shining armor.The more time I spent away from him and the others, the more tormenting my feelings were becoming,and the dream felt so real…sometimes I couldn't tell what was a dream and what was real…this whole ordeal felt like a one big nightmare...one where I couldnt wake up from...
“And he doesn't even know where I am,I can't call him,and I don't even know where exactly here is this…this…this VILE!IDIOTIC!PEN!”I shouted loudly,I rarely was angry, but just the crushingly painful reality was agonizing me non-stop…This place really is a true hell on earth…the Lonely terror was far-too much for me.
"What's the point of holding on to any hope?I'll be stuck here forever.Imprisoned here like a freak unable to live a normal life,a monstrosity.And I cant even go back home at that!"
“I'll only be liberated once death's sweet embrace arrives.”Though I had my doubts about that too,as this different state could maybe even make me immortal…then again I don't know almost nothing about it,but even so knowing that there was a possibility that…“AHHH!THE CURSE OF AN ETERNAL LIFE!”
“Nothings ever going to be the same again!I'm stuck here forever…at least others like Harvey had a way to go out.”
Eternal life?What am I rambling on about.I knew nothing,except that all hope is fruitless and I'm stuck here till i'll die…
I stopped reflecting on all my thoughts and looked around at my cell
“This place is messing with my thoughts”
—------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another day was about,and I was getting ready to tell Miss Susan the good news.But I didn't want to disturb her just yet.First I went to stop and have a bit of a chat with my good friend Anthony,he is a most kind hearted specimen of a 10-foot ant who was imprisoned here around the same time as I.He was most kind and understanding.I put one of my inventions to use an acoustic translator voice box which could translate what I said to him and in turn.He was actually quite nice but often bored due to the lack of work and really purpose.
After a while I came to Susan to tell her the wonderful news. I was looking forward to seeing her happy again.
I saw the others feeding themselves in the meeting room,but Susan was nowhere in sight. It obviously meant that she was likely still in her room so I came in,but first I knocked as a good gentleman to announce my presence.
“Hello Susan!I have some excellent News!”I said to her
She looked down at me with very little interest.
“Monger will be upgrading your quarters and will install in your room your very own Colossus Mega XL 5000 Ultimate Prestige Super Superb Supreme Rose Edition HD TV!It has cable and you can have the same fun and entertainment like you did back home!”I told her the good news with a big happy smile on my rather large face
And that's not all!Your cell will also receive a desk,a pillow and many comforts which you had back home!I looked at Susan who was still frowning,maybe…maybe there was something wrong.
—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Home…..that place I would never see,it pained me just hearing about it.
“What's the point of trying anything,all is lost.Look at me I'm a Monster” I told him said I didn't even cry,I just said it,I was losing my feeling with the everpresent sadness,I just felt desensitized from my constant ordeals.
“Whats the point?Everythings is all wrong!Things can't get worse!”
"But Susan you're about to get better quarters,that's something."The professor said to me
“Even a gilded cage is still a cage”–I answered him,no matter how great or fantastic this place could be,It could even be a palace,the truth was and is that in the end it is a jail. No matter how decorated or homely and one I would never leave
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Well-” I said contemplating what to say,what should I say by Hawkings Chair!I had to think hard,she needed to be back…and I could help her with it!I could do it.
“Well I have looked over my survey of you and I might have some ideas,and maybe could try something…possibly to make you normal again”
After that Susans large head came up to look at with excitement.
“Normal?”She said said joyfully
“Well I can't promise miracles?”I warned her.“But I can run some experiments which could theore-”
I suddenly found myself being held up by her firm but gentle hand.
“You're a blessing doc” She said and then she grabbed me like a little girl would to a doll and hugged me.She held me so tight and pressed me to her body so hard it was begging to be most painful.And then she hugged me.It was getting a tad too tight “Would you mind putting me down please?”I asked her,I didn't want to be rude but I was coming close to being crushed.
“Oh,sorry Doc!”She said and quickly released me but she did it with too much force which catapulted me straight into a wall…I was crushed…yet again.
“Doc?Are you alright?Im so sorry!Please I didn't mean it!” She said in immediate regret.I must admit she was strong and was only learning to control her powers,It was not all too painful. I could get over it after all…you cant crush a cockroach…
“Yes,I am fine and understand it,I can obviously concure that you don't know your own strength”I said to Susan,who smiled back
She then Layed down and let me get off and then gave me the biggest kiss I ever gotten.
“Thank you... .thank you so much!”She said and smiled at me,I felt flattered…in more ways than one.
—---------------------------------------------
“Want some nice raw fish Toby?”I asked him
“No thanks,Link I don't even eat sushi.”Toby the Tiger replied while eating his vegetarian MRE(Meal ready to eat)
He was an odd one.Normal tiger till he was gifted human intelligence and tried to fit in society…unfortunately people tend to be scared of tigers,even a civilized one.
Beastman was one of Tobys best friends. Both have kinda a mutual understanding amongst each other as semi predators.He looked up to Toby longing to be just like him...
Kitsune was eating his Shikoku but stopped and started eyeing something. I looked in the same direction and there I saw Enormica,err Titanica walking down to join us.
“Well,you look as happy as a flea!”Jaromir said he was happy to see her in better spirits.
"Well,youre a pretty sight"Said that merman-ish guy...what was his name again?
"You look happy today!So whats up Suz?"I asked her,It was glad that she had gotten out of her depression…I felt the same once too...
“Yeah, like did you get Ice Cream?”Bob said “If so, can I have some please?”
“Because By tomorrow,Doc will have cured me!”She said happily
I paused…and then after some thought just said
“Yeah…that's nice”
When I heard Suz say that doc will get her normal by the end of the day. To be honest I really appreciated Doc,he helped me adjust to this new way of life in this new world. It wasn't easy and I really gave him a tough time but over time he helped me become more civilized.But curing Susan?I was never really bright but knowing doc would attempt it made me feel sorry for him,he was just such a swell guy and real smart but doing this would be far too much for him.I should try to reason or warn him,besides I doubt this would be approved…
—---------------------------------------------
“And,you two will have to lower a certain piece of cargo into the meeting room for inmate Titanica.”Major Hanfield was briefing us in on our daily mission
“Yes,Sir!”I said in reply to my superior officer
“What is this cargo?” W.O. 1st class Eddie asked
“A pillow”He said stoically
Well I had stranger things loaded on our resupply helicopter.
"Aw,thats swell music!"Eddie said listening to the base radio. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Miy2yFcDV4M&list=PL89oFBFnCcml61xL7l_5217qWqlNWm5E0&index=18
—--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Wow!A Mirror and a Pillow!Thanks…uh…you guys?Susan was happy to see some of the additions in the room. Am I glad that Monger was a rational man.He really did care for us, calling us his boys or girls.
“Hey the name is Scott Isaak”Came a reply from the loudspeaker on the cargo helicopter.
Yes, everything was most satisfactory.
On my way back to my cell first I saw Bob who was staring into the wall in curiosity.
"Bob why are you staring at the wall?"I asked him
"Oh,its a wall?That explains a lot,otherwise It would be the first fog with rivets on it I ever saw"He said
Then I met Link
“Hey Doc Suz says you're gonna cure her by tomorrow is that true?”
“I will try some experiments on getting Susan back to normal I told him
“You'd better be careful,And even if you do Monger will most likely find out Link said warning me”
And what will he do to me?Throw me in jail?I retorted dryly to his remark
“Or revoke some of your privileges”Link said
Link had a point,I thought about it but it was clear these sacrifices were trivial compared to Susans well being.
Well anyways Doc you shouldn't raise her hopes to high,the bigger they are the harder they fall after all”
“I wouldn't be so dismissive after all. I'm one of the world's leading Biologist” I said to him and paused impressively.
“Yeah well even so,you're just scraping the surface,you're putting a lot on you”He said to me
He was right, all I know now is the tip of the iceberg,I still have a lot to learn.
So I scurried away to my cell or lab
Through hours I could tell I worked and thought upon my calculations.I toiled and thought and try after try doing my very best with what little I had.Not that I wasn't resourceful for example my supercomputer was made out of a pizza box,an old television set,two cans of hairspray,a water bottle,some old cables and a paperclip.I had to try something,anything. When I was at long last I gave up and went to sleep.I was knackered by it.But I had something ready to help…Or at least I hoped…
“And sleep, that sometimes shuts up sorrow's eye, Steal me awhile from mine own company.” I said aloud to myself quoting midsummers nights dream.Well I truly did know ancient tomes thoroughly
“I guess I do have a strangely retentive memory for trifles”I told myself….
The next “day” after the alarm went off. I looked at myself in the mirror and said to myself“Look at you Jacques,what have you gotten yourself into?That poor big girl is thinking you can immediately cure her.And yet you are just starting to comprehend it”I must admit I had never seen anything like it in my life,so I only had some vague ideas of trying to work with it. “Another fine mess you've gotten yourself into” But I wouldn't give up!Maybe I didn't have all the necessary resources,maybe I didn't have enough knowledge,and maybe I would lose my privileges for this.But I would do my very best for poor Susan.
And So I cried out
“They called me crazy!But I'll show them!I'll show them all!Muha-ha-ha-ha-ha!”Oh there I go again…I somewhat accepted my role as a mad scientist, I guess it just came in with the new me.
But I was still tired so I went back to sleep for a while longer.
—-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next morning I woke up feeling better than I ever did!I felt so happy,rejoicing at the new day,the day I get back to normal I rushed around to look for Dr.C But I couldn't find him,so I opened the door to the cell quietly so as not to disturb him and then I found him.He was asleep,as snug as a bug in a rug.He must have stayed up all night working out how to get me back,how sweet of him,I quietly I left him and Locked the door.
“Thanks sleepyhead”I said to him quietly and left
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Would you be a dear and bring your cup down”I asked her politely
“Sure thing Doc!”She said and promptly handed it down
I then took a ladder and filled it up with several canisters of liquid
“Here Susan drink this,It will help you.”I said to her.
“You mean like get me back to normal size?”She asking me about it
“Well no,but It will help you with your mental state,give it a go”
What I made was an amalgamation it was really a healthy juice drink. It was made out of berries which were given to us a few weeks back,they were to be kept frozen so I put them into my homemade cooler to keep them in case i needed them.I had kept quite a few just enough for one giant drink which I enhanced with some other ingredients to make it even better.And I didnt lie because it was scientifically proven that vitamins help with depression and other mentality issues.She needed that to help her shattered psyche,at times I felt most distressed by her state,I couldn't cure her just yet…but at least I could help her a little and give her some hope.
—--------------------------------------------------------------------
“Well ... .Ok here it goes”I said looking a little fearful at the strange liquid before drinking it down.
It tasted wonderful,like drinking silver. It didn't have anything so good since well…since I left home.Doc really did a great job,I felt better already.And no doubt he was working on a way to get me back to normal,everything was going to be great again!
“Ahh and now for some analysis of your effects we shall need an electric current.What shall we use to conduct this electric Current?”
“What Doc?”I asked him,I wondered what he was talking about
“One particular element comes to mind!”He said gesturing wire in front of me
“Ahh…….wire!”Oh it was so easy
Docs smile quickly disappeared
“No,Copper.”Doc Corrected me
“Susan, may you please attach these spatio-hyperlink protoplasm intel extractors to yourself?”He asked me
“Sure thing!” I happily obliged and put them on all my limbs,on my body and on my face.
“And now I will run a check through my computer.I will also have to facture in intel from your previous test and some calculations I made and all these parts together can solve this Jig-saw”He said triumphantly
After a while I heard Doc mumbling to himself. I could hear what he was saying and yet didn't understand it.
“Uh Doc what are you talking about?I questioned the metamorphosed scientist
“Oh me?Just some simple Energy Quantization of course!You'll understand.”He said in a proud voice
“Uh…”I didn't have the slightest idea about what he was talking about.Was It just me,or was I kinda,well dumb?Gee I do feel stupid,in front of doc too.Oh well no big deal just keep happy Suzie.
“How's it going anyway doc?”I asked him a bit later
“I have made many calculations and analyzation and upon this latest survey I think I may have several possible ways to get you back,none guaranteed of course,but I lack equipment for most tests so lets hope one of the available types of tests might get you back” Cockroach said
This made me think,If they would escape they could get anything and not be limited to doing with the little we had here which might not even make ends meet.
Anyway later I saw Grubzilla he squealed happily after seeing me,I gently rubbed his tummy and he started joyfully stomping his foot.After that I hugged him and so did he…I felt like as if I were on Cloud Nine.
“Well Susan your happy today”Bob said
“I AM!Thanks to that genius doctor Jacques-Yves!”I told him
“Yeah I really did a good job didn't I”Bob said
What?Oh well he is kinda brainless in more ways than one,he was unintentionally insensitive at times but it wasn't because he was mean,he was,well….dumb…to be honest even I felt kinda dumb…all that things doc says and well…I can't even follow him on it…Nah!Not a problem,so what I don't know are a few things?Big deal!Yeah….big deal…
—---------------------------------
Susan was going around and I saw how others reacted to Susan
The Yokai went out shifting into the form of a person I had never seen, but looked japanese in appearance…at times it was his default form.He must have made contact with,as had the ability to shapeshift into him.When we came to Susan he looked at her in awe.
“Well she,is beautiful”The Yokai said looking at Titanica for the first time
“She is as beautiful as a goddess”I added and it was true she was truly magnificent.
Later we were playing guess the number,Susan was in better Spirits and was taking part too,It was encouraging at time I even worried as far as being as how Kitsune would say “Harakiri” But fortunately I was wrong in Susan and she stayed strong throughout her despair and now was in better spirits…in spite of my failure to cure her yet.
Later she came to us and asked us a few questions
“Doc?I have a question…”She asked me
“Yes my dear?”I said in reply
“Well you were also once a normal person,how was it to you when you came here?”
I stopped,At one point I considered trying to change the subject,but that would not be proper.She deserves the truth.
“Well you see when I first came here the base was only semi finished by this point so a meeting hall wasn't done yet but the cells were so I and any other beings there already imprisoned there endured it for about another 2 years after my arrival”
“I had totally shifted. In more ways than one,my body and my mind.Day after Day,Night after night and yet not a moment of respite.I was in a corner of my solitary cell repeating scientific facts and observations over and over again to myself.The connecting and transport of cells and the meeting room was not finished until 2 years later…2 years I sat there alone in one room…observed like a guinea pig and treated as such,I was little more than a common lab rat. It seemed as though I was slowly sinking into the sea of insanity”
“But I tried to get a good hold upon my sanity,then I started to really look into myself,I realized that I was not aging and realized that for its cost the experiment was a success and it was that and my genius that lifted me through many months and months of companionless life....of truly being alone...”
I thought about everything I gathered over the last 2 days,and then it came into my head:Escape!…hmm that could be a possibility,then not only would I be free but Doc would have anything he would need to get me back to normal size...a win-win!
“So uhh…did anyone here try to escape?”I said ,this was so awkward
“We tried to escape many times Suz” Link said “But we always failed. We eventually gave up and just came to terms and just stayed here”Link told me the truth about this place…maybe it wasn't possible.
I was deep in thought processing information I had gathered over time and putting it together.There hasn't been an escape attempt in decades!While on one hand this means a breakout would be hard on the other hand it would also mean that most of the staff has no experience with an escape and while Monger and possibly a few others would have been here since the beginning most of the staff and guards wouldn't!There was hope yet!Hope for freedom,Hope for normalicy,Hope for my life to be saved!
"I have a chance!And I have to take it for all its worth!"

Bob was deep in though
Which was wasn't very deep….
A poem for Susan written(in universe) by —
Oh how long will this mystery last?How long will this dreadful suspense which has shrouded our minds for weeks pass over the doom of one,to suffer its gloom to dispense.
Each morning we wake up and ask “Is there any news about the long missing young lady?”
and our hearts fill with bitter regret as no comes rolling from every lung.
Where is she?Oh where could she be?Looked up forever and ever where she quietly dyes, the pride of her parent's eyes.
Where is the light that trods her eyes,does it yet stay alive,or cries in the gloom of her cadaver,never to be over.
We earnestly hope we will see her again and not let her voice be hushed and many will rejoice
Has the depraved soul been lost?has she only found her grave?
Father,forbid it we cry.Grant it not ,this our prayer and spare her.
We hope and at the same time sigh,our hope is allied with despair
(Who wrote it?It is up to you to decide)
Also the title is that way because Susan thinks that there is a chance of escape and has hope,Dr Jacques Yves has hope because he has a chance to bring her to normal
In both cases the chances is small but there,and theyve got to take them fro all there worth!
Also did you like the style of changing Povs among characters?
Would you like to see some characters Pov in a following chapter?Like Top 3?Susan and Jacques will be back others Im not so sure so say which ones you like and we will get them/continue them
PLEASE COMMENT AS IT HELPS TO VOICE THE PUBLICS OPIONS,MAKES THE CREATOR HAPPY AND MIGHT GIVE HIM A CHANCE TO IMPROVE FURTHER.
PLEASE DO AND THANKS IF YOU DO!

Pt.4 The Beuty and the beast
The Alarm went out and once again it was time for me to wake up and embrace the new day.I Went out and faced it.I looked at my cell
“Still here I see” I said slightly soberly to myself looking at my cell walls which were scribbled with my over calculations and other such texts I had written on to them, reassuringly gazing back at me.
First I had my breakfast
It was most satisfactory.I liked porridge,especially when it became nice and rotten,it tasted so well.I asked them to make it like this for especially for me,it was most kind of the staff to comply with my preferances.After that I went around to see how things were going.
When I went to the pool to check out how my collegues are getting on.I saw Link racing Jaromir the Vodnik in the pool,and promptly lost,it was neck and neck. It used to be easy for him to win ,now he is struggling to win in his own element.
After his defeat he went on to talk with some other inmates“C'mon Babe why won't you give me a chance?”Link said asking the Goblin Queen for what I could assume would be some sort of a date
“Because you would be a weak link to me” She said while those were cruel words.but I had to admit there was a grain of truth in it.After that I went back to my cell.
I passed a few other cells.One that held The Gerry the Ghoul of Graydale, a phantom attacker who terrorized his village of Graydale.He gave me a rather unfriendly look,he always was, and still is a Buffon.
After that I passed Morana's cell. She was an alleged“Goddess of Winter”in slavic folklore.But to be honest her powers were often magnified by the fear pertained over her, and her limitless power was a mere myth(Not to say she wasn't very powerful but wasn't the undefeatable all powerful deity she was made out to bee)but she sat there in his extra secure cell,living proof that there was always some truth in legends!
She looked at me with interest and said “Come here you little ugly buggy,don't be scared.I just want to play”She said in a rather spine-chilling tone,but I was no fool.I wasn't going to play her “games” and just went on.
On my way back I met Bob ,he was oozing along at such a pace that it seemed as though something was amiss.
“Bob?Where are you off to in such a hurry?”I asked this brainless being
“Don't know where,But somewhere” he said jovially racing along,he wasnt picky and would just race around at times
Still as happy as he was since he first came here,after all the decades of imprisonment.The Irony of it all,I envied him.This simple-simon was far more joyful and content with this life than I,almost as if I strived for being dumber and simpler and…well…blind.
Later that day I returned to the meeting room and I saw Link had taken interest in Titanica,err Susan.
“Hey babe!”Link shouted at her “Check out my biceps”…he didn't have any really but Susan wasn't the type to rain on his parade.
“Gee…”She said obviously trying to find them
“Hey?Could I take a closer look at you?”Link said to her
“Well,I uh- I don't know becua-”But before She could finish her sentence, Links flippers were going up her legs and he climbed up all the way her head and looked at her close-up.I must admit Link really was behind the times,I tried to teach him manners and It didn't go very well so we gave up on that futile venture.
“Well,I have never seen you up so close,” Link said, looking over her face
I saw her blush and say “Gee. I haven't even used makeup since I came here.”Susan admitted,to be honest .I can't blame her for not doing anything to care for her skin since she came here…not that I had much of a choice though.
“Well you'll need them" Link said ”Your skin has wrinkles and it's so dry.I never knew gals looked so unattractive when they get this big,I guess you really aren't that attractive”He said
Those words must have pierced right though poor Susan.I saw her start to sob,.
She ran as fast as she could to the loneliness of her room.She started crying and I understand why.She must have been thinking to herself that her size would prevent any real relationships or who would want to love her now that every flaw or problem would now be nine times bigger.Or maybe even being grateful for being here so that others would see her.All these problems that came with the change.
…“I'M JUST A STUPID,BIG,UGLY MONSTER”I heard her wail
I felt for Susan,I wanted to go over to her but I twitched in fear, while I am a rational man; the bug part of me has primal fears,which include a fear of being crushed by something giant,like Titanica.
“Come one Jacques!Be a rational man, she wouldn't do it to you!You should know better!”I said it to myself silently and so after that I went forth to face my fears.True some of them were because when she first came here she was afraid of me the "Hideuos Bug-thingy"as she said and tried to crush me in fear.I dont blame her,after her ordeal and being greeted by me and being scared of me but by now she was accustomed to me.
She was still crying lying on her bed,with me trying to calm her down by saying
“Dont take his words like that Susan!Link is very primitive and has no experience with manners or politeness”.In fact I tried to change his ways to no avail,I let it be,after all its natural for him to be like this.
“Do you honestly think Derek will still love me?”She said soberly to me
“Well,he would be a damn fool not to!”I said to her instantaneously in reply.
“Now come on Susan you won't let Link's words get to you,he really doesn't mean it.I said to her I was throughly distraught by her current state and tried to cheer her up.”
“And even so, how can he call you ugly?Just look at me!Two Big eyes,Two antennas I am quite literally on one half a bug!An ugly beast!"I said to Susan,while I don't fancy the Idea of insulting myself, I had to make her realize that whatever was wrong with her was negligible,so she could feel better.
“You on the other hand are a beauty”I said, still trying to lift her spirits.I saw her slightly smile and say “Aw come on Doc,you're not that ugly”She said to me
“Maybe looks aren't all that important” I added
However, despite briefly making her a tad more joyful,it was only temporary.Soon Susan was low again.I realized that to help her regain her confidence, I had to make Link eat his words,so I promptly crawled over to his cell.
I passed by Bob who was throwing his eyeball against the wall and catching it and doing it again and again happily laughing to himself.Blissfully ignorant as always.
Grubzilla was in his usual trance-like state staring at the fluorescent lights in awe as if he were a little boy looking at a hypnotic coin.
Then I was at Links cell.It looked like an oversized fishbowl,it had a castle a treasure chest,some seaweed and some sand at the bottom.Links waterproof television set was on and on it was running a kan-kan show.Link was curled up at the bottom of his tank on his bed sleeping,two inflatable dolls in the form of women floated in the tank,on which Link would practice his “swoon”and “charisma”on.
I was greeted by a sleeping fish-ape and a sing beside the cell which as always read: PLEASE DO NOT TAP ON GLASS
“Link?I Called out to the Fish-Ape primate
“Huh?”My wet friend said,he was clearly only half asleep.
“Please come with me,It's important”I told him
“Fine,fine im coming”he said rather grumpily
He went along with me to Susan and when we got there link finally asked
“What's up Doc?”Link said
“I think you owe poor Susan an apology”I replied
“Ok,Suz If I were free back on some beach like Pismo or Cocoa I would totally kidnap you”Link said smirking a bit and almost begrudgingly”
“Link,that isn't a real apology," I added.I wanted Susan to get a true one to help her get over it.Link had to take it all back!
“Ok fine ,Susan you're beautiful and I'm sorry I was insensitive to you”.Link se begrudgingly
She looked at me and smiled,I smiled back.Enough was said in words and the rest could be told without words
It felt so comforting to see her get out of the rut even if it likely would not last long.
—----------------------------------------------------------------------------
And It didn't.Soon Susan was starting to descend into desperation,but I came back to try and lift her spirits
“Hello again Madame Susan!Would you fancy asking me some questions ?I can answer them for you,I'm sure you might be curious about something and I am sure that I have an answer”I know this place as well as the back of my antenas after all. "
“Well… when was the last time you saw the outside world?”She Quizzed me
“Well,I think It was about fifty years or so?”I replied
“What?But I you dont look...well young-ish well then again its hard to tell when I dont have any real experience with humanoid cockroach.She said in surprise and I think I could see a her look a bit confused almost disgusted.
"My Cockroach transformation gifted me with many powers,one of which included that my aging process came to a halt.Then again I doubt it matters when im a horrible monster"I said the final lines in a bit of a comedic tone.
Susan Smiled a bit,and i think I heard her chuckle a little
But I didn't want to bring to her further gloom by revealing that her getting cosmetics or the like would impossible.It was a bit of a dilemma for me.As she would likely find it out the hard way eventually.But these were trying times for her,times where she had to keep calm and try to carry on.
This wasnt a mall or anything and I doubt there was any place which had size XXXXXL for her.
I didn't want to make her sad again, at least not now,so I let this charade go on.
I in a way I felt responsible to help Susan after all I knew what she went through she was seeking true companionship.Just like me,I had had some lab partners,Colleagues,some other friends and some family, at time I stay up at night and wonder how long did they wait for me to return.
If any are still waiting(as I just “disappeared” and they don't know anything about the truth)and If those who had not passed on as the years went on,did my friendship with them ever die?Why I didn't even have a chance to say Goodbye.While I usually bury those ties under my work and knowledge.At times I can't help but just feel that I'm missing something.
But this made me think,Susan was missing almost everything, I should demand better conditions for Susan. She has such a bare bones life it was just enough for survival and not for living at all.
Before going back to my cell I put on some music on the radio to try her.”Well met again eh?”Fitting I said and put it on
youtube
“Excuse me Madam but I must go now”I excused myself and left
Eventually Monger did come in about 2 hours later.There were no clocks or calendars at our disposal so I naturally built a clock and It measured time precisely and when he did I walked up to him and asked him for a private discussion…alone.
“Monger,Susans has trouble grappling with this change in her life her,you should do more for her”
“Listen, Cockroach, she has what she needs.And It aint cheap to do upgrades for someone her size”Monger said to me
It was clear to me without a shadow of a doubt that I had to resort to reasoning with him “Look, you're scientist gave you strength readouts didn't they?”
“Yes…and they were….very impressive” he said with a bit of awe in his voice
“If you don't tend to her well she might do something irrational as a result of it.Wouldn't it be best to keep her happy?”
“Hmm,well I think we could do a little more for her ,you do have a point,I'll see what I can do” Monger said doubtless he realized how right I was in my statements.
He didn't underestimate my genius,he was amazed by the weapons and vehicles and other inventions I was tasked at designing like the 300 knot fast attack ship,The Unitron,or that 500 Ton flying tank, the sixth generation jet fighter and other such marvels of machinery if I do say so myself.
Thinking about it at times makes me feel guilty of building so many instruments of destruction on the other and I remind myself “Remember the more powerful weapons there will be more fear preventing war and even when it does happen weapons are far from the times of the Napoleonic wars where it could hit anyone in the crossfire,but with this it will only go after the target and nullify unnecessary deaths and the war is over sooner,so in fact I am helping peace” And even if not with such weapons even so I do find fascination and a feeling of accomplishment in creating such things,just the feeling of it all gives me some real purposes and usage of my intellect
I do have a four digit IQ score after all

EXTRA
SONG!
Susan had a way of picking up the day.
Maybe it's a kind of magic,the only Giantess can do,
But seeing Susan smile
Made me stop a while and enjoy the moment
She's only a girl name Susan,a girl named Susan Murphy
She just a girl next door,maybe a little more
She's just a girl in every town
The world is full of lots of people her and there and all around.
But people after all,start as being small
and were all a girl named…
Susan Murphy

My own artwork of Jack Frost,as you can see hes slightly changed since last time:
1.Some tinsel round the staff because i'm sure he would do like to give his staff a little extra
2.Same goes for the silver bells which are around the staff. They are those Silver Winter Bells from the carols announcing that winter is here.
3.Jack to make himself look more fashionable and majestic...after all he is the Winter Prince
ALSO!This is how Jack Looks like in my Story Arc:Rise of  the Monsters Link to the complete story thus far: www.deviantart.com/hiddenhank/…
This was a big thing for me I gave so much effort and yet when It came out on Devianart not only it didnt live up to the effort It got hated especially after one user wished I was never born...guys!Tell me what is wrong with this to make it so bad?
Please Comment and Like(But I doubt you will seeing as so many hate it and the lack of likes confirms it)

Pt.3 The Hidden Truth
Since Ancient times there have been sightings and recordings of strange manifestations in the sky.
It was always speculated on the possibilities of….visitors from another world
Today from the skies of California!
The fields of Kansas!
The Freezing Wastelands of the Poles!
The Rice Patties of the Orient!
The Atlantic Ocean!
The Airlanes of the world!
…come persistent reports of UFOs Unidentified flying objects which we have come to know as…flying saucers,something had to be done!
In Dayton Ohio the Air Intelligence Command gathers in search data from all corners of the globe 95 percent of the objects prove to be of natural origin.While 5 percent remain still listed as unknown.
The Air Force is aware of the widely held belief that some of these could be flying saucers from another planet,while there is nothing conclusive in the evidence.The probing and digesting the probing information about UFOs continues unceasingly!
As a result headquarters of the hemispheric defense command in Colorado Springs issued an order:
Any military installations are to fire on sight at any flying objects unidentifiable.
But even as they did this the military wondered if their know-how and best weapons would be effective in any battle of
THE EARTH VS THE FLYING SAUCERS!!!!
AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Ahhh that's so scary!”Bob said
“Aw come on Bob it's only a movie”Beastman comforted him
“How about a Roger Corman film?Or better yet a documentary.”The Cockroach man suggested.
“Why not a beach film I love those” Link was saying remembering the good old days of rampage and women.
I didn't really pay much attention to that movie they were putting on,besides I was so big I could hardly tell what was going on. The set was so tiny. Sigh…time sure does pass here at a snail's pace.I met some other inmates like Beastman he was quite nice and cultured but we could only see him only at daytime because at night no matter where he was he would lose control of his instincts and be completely feral and dangerous.
Then there was Jaromir the Vodyanoy(or water spirit) who went as far as to flood a village for not leaving his lake alone ,while he went on the run afterward through lakes heading towards the sea,it ended with a showdown with the WASPs(World Aquanaut Security Patrol)after which he was captured and was used as an example to other water spirits to be wary of the consequences of their actions.
Then he was a japanese Yokai Shapeshifter he was a mysterious robber and stole from many jewelry collections he was called the invisible striker as he would take the form of any guard or official,while it was hard to catch him they eventually did and locked him up here .Its rue form was Kitsume which meant fox.
Then there was the Goblin Queen.She is from what I heard from Doc the queen and warrior champion of her subterranean hidden kingdom.But that was not enough for her,when the treaty was signed she was against all the way through and disregarded it many times.In the end she was taken here to prevent her from causing real trouble,unlike others she had many perks like looser rules,far better quarters etc. mainly due to her background and power and to keep her happy again to prevent trouble from her domain.
“Even among misfits I'm a misfit”I said to myself
Meanwhile Bob changed the channel and was watching static
“Woah did you get that?CCSSSSHHH!Now that is quality tv!”He said mimicking the static
“Bob, it's on static change the channel!”Beastman said in reply
“Yeah, put on something cool and tropical, ''Link suggested. Hopefully he thought of himself as being very cool especially after being in ice for millennia and he loved the warmth and atmosphere of it.It was a convenient truth that the planet had left the Ice age that froze him.
“You mean like ... .Monster Beach?”The dim-witted Blob said
“Oh No not that again”Link said annoyed
I was looking over the oatmeal and reminiscing of the good old days,days which were not long ago,I just lost almost any taste for food, my life was without any flavor. My life is just dull, gray,monotonous and uncomfortable with enough food to keep me going yet not have any taste to give me an appetite.I had been here for two weeks and It was hard for me to be familiarized with this weird life .It felt like a fever dream .As if I had gone insane and was locked up and put on medications…and yet it was so real.
“Well…at least with this gunk I won't have any weight woes”After this gunk isn't very tempting I said
“Yeah at least I won't gain any weight!”I said aloud trying to stay optimistic.
“But you've already gained Tons of weight” Bob said brainlessly and unintentionally insensitively
“THANKS BOB!”I said I was angered by his remark,He most likely didn't mean it of course. but i couldn't help it.Im not the type to be sarcastic but this was just so…well…different.
Suddenly a large helicopter appeared and it was towing a light,the light which guided Grubzilla back to his cell where he would slumber, meaning it was time for him and us to go to sleep.
“Oh well it's time to go to sleep, good night!”Cockroach said
“Sleep well Amazonia!”Link said
“Have a nice night Ginormica!”Bob said
“Her name is actually Titanica!”Beastman said
“No Its Susan”I said
While I chose the name Titanica it was against my will i just found it to be the best of a bad lot. My,I wish they would just shut up and stop calling me that!I am not Titanica,I am Susan!
In the cell I was deep in thought and then I saw the kitten “Hang in there”Poster and said to myself“Okay,Susan Murphy Hang in there and face the facts.You're in Jail unfairly imprisoned and none of my friends know where I am,but they know I'm missing, Derek might know some powerful people,Mom and Dad will also do there best,and everyone present at the wedding saw it happen and will…….. “EUREKA!That's it!”I shouted loudly and happily.
But then I remembered I was under 24 hour surveillance by the personell observing me. So I thought to myself“Some of my friends and family were filming and taking photos at my wedding,and would still be filming and taking photos when I turned to a giantess.That's excellent proof!Like who wouldn't want to take a photo of something as weird as that…The Government can't keep me a secret anymore!They must know I've been kidnapped.The Government can't keep me with that out and about!They just can't!"After that I calmed down from my elation and went to sleep.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had a strange dream that night,that I was a celebrity and that bilions watched videos of me growing up to giant size on televisions and at meets and well just frankly everywhere.And that I was a phenomenon known as “Bridezilla!”. I felt odd and embarrassed,then again many are most likely seeing the video while I was still dreaming.Oh well I couldn't be that bad!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next morning as I woke up I went into the day with new hopes.
Suddenly a beeping sound came.The beeping sound that announced the meals we were to get.The other inmates noticed it as well.
“Oh Boy!It's eat time” Link said happily as he and the gang raced up to the table.
Link dished up his favorite meal,raw fish!He happily dug into it in his primitive manner.
“That is thoroughly repulsive” Doc said
Then he was dished up his food,trash.
“Oh look, a lovely slipper” he said and started to devour it,Bob tried to reach out to take some ,but Doc noticed and promptly pushed him away.
“Sorry but this is my rubbish pile”he said to the blob
He happily indulged in it,When I first saw Doc eat trash I wondered how could someone like eating trash but then I remembered that he said he fused himself with genes of a cockroach and that it not only affected him physically but also mentally,It was like from that book Metamorphosis where that guy got turned into a bug and found how much he loved rotten things.
Then again i must admit Doc has been doing a pretty good job of disregarding his bug instincts and has been acting very kind and civil .In fact I bet he's the nicest person i met since…the day…As for Bob seeing as he's such a simpleton…well such a thing wouldn't really have much taste or completely bizzare taste at that.
“Doc!DOC!DOC!DOOOOOCCCC!!!” Bob screamed in terror
“I forgot to breathe. What will I do?How can I breathe help me Doc!”The brainless blob screamed in terror!
“Bob,you are a Blob and you do not need to breathe”Cockroach deadpanned,this wasn't the first time this week Bob had that type of problem.
“WOW!THANKS DOC YOU'RE A LIFESAVER!”Bob said happily and I saw him shaking the hands with Doc
Some time later I layed down alone,when suddenly I felt a scurrying up my legs. I used my hand to scrape it off. It was Jacques and he went flying all the way to the wall and hit it with a thud his hands were twitching.
"OH!Im so sorry!"I said realizing I accidentally crushed him,how emberassing!
“No no my dear it is my fault entirely I should have asked before i climbed on you at times the bug part of me takes control and I don't notice”Jacques-Yves said
“Anyway I have something to tell you”He said while he scurried over in front of me.
“My examinations of you have proven most intriguing,Susan.I have no Idea what could have caused it.Do the scientist from the examination know anything about it?”He asked me curiously
“The scientists just call it Chemical X”I said “They don't know much about it,in fact they are not even sure if it was an element,it could have been anything really.
“Well ,maybe we should give it a name then”Jacques said
“Titanium?No wait that's already been taken".Cockroach mused
Susanium?He said,I blushed, it was nice but kinda unfitting.
“Cockroachium?”I said,Doc smiled back.
“I don't know,I have been running checks on you,whatever it is it affect you completely right down to your quantum levels”Doc was deep in thought
“Hmmm,Quantonium?It seems fitting.”He said
“Yeah,I think that's just a fine name for it,if it even is an element.”I said Doc's name was okay for now.
“Well for all I know and the scientist too, what happened to you could have been anything like just a magic trick that changed you,but that would be daft!”he said jokingly
“Yeah”Was all I said,he was right and it made me think,maybe it wasn't some kind of element or radiation or all that jazz.Maybe it could be something beyond our comprehension…then again maybe I was just overthinking,I looked back at Jacques.
I liked him. He was so nice to me and so understanding,maybe because he was at one point a normal human being too and he was rather intelligent in addition to being accustomed to all sorts of beasts
“Doc, this place is like Alcatraz for the supernatural” I said to the tiny bug headed white cloth scientist.
His large cockroach eyes looked at me and then thought about something and then he said
“More like Tartarus!”
“What?”I answered,like what's this tartar something?
“Its from Greek mythology Doc swiftly replied It was used to imprison Demons,Titans and certain humans as a prison,you know interesting story the titans who were giants led by Cronus were banished there as punishment It was said to have been a prison built by the gods.Odd how there are such strange parallels between the real and the mythical…then again you're mythical giantess and you real,I guess it's just a coincidence”The seemingly tiny doctor told me
I was amazed by his knowledge and kinda embarased by my ignorance,so then left to the side for awhile
Monger arrived inside and again a helicopter used its light to direct Grubzilla away,I was disgusted by the way he treated him as if he was just an object
“Monger,I need to have a word with you” I said trying to look serious,I was waiting for this all day…at least i thought it was day,Deep down i was nervous however.
“Sure thing”He answered and the flew to me
“What about..visits?When will I see anyone from my family again?”I said
“No visits to any monsters ,sorry but that's just the way it is can't bring just anybody here for any reason we gotta keep this place and you secret”Monger said
“How long will I have to be here?" I demanded “How long will you keep this little game of yours up?Another day?week?Month or a year?”I said desperately as tried to come to terms with his previous sentence
“Forever” Monger said cooly and calmly and landed his jetpack and turned it off and walked towards me
“After all the military is expert at covering up and creating misinformations to fill in the gaps…If it is necessary that is…after all most think the Easter Bunny is a fable.”He explained
“So…I'm just gonna rot here for always and always and always, for doing nothing wrong?”I said “In fact a lot of these other creatures are too!And they arent all that bad”
“Well,I wouldn't say so”!Monger said
“But they're innocent!”I told Monger in a defiant tone!
“Innocent eh?”Monger said
“Actually most if not all are guilty. Each of them went on a rampage,caused destruction,were a danger to society and possibly even killed people intentionally or not!Grubzilla has the highest damage and death count by far and while he didnt mean to destroy part of Tokyo ,he is still a hazard and a big one at that!Link went on a rampage and kidnapped many innocent women and killed a several men who were trying to stop him from getting the girl.”
"And Beastman killed several people too,no wonder he gave himself up as he realized he couldn't control himself at night in the slightest.And wisely saw this as the correct choice"
"And that Blob, while he can only eat inorganic matter he still eat through a few city blocks caused property damage several people were injured and he imperiled many innocent lives!If You are in any doubt we have the M-Files for it and even if not convinced then we even have footage of there rampages!"
“But I didn't go on a rampage!”I protested,I WAS IN THE RIGHT!I didn't Kill anyone,I didn't intentionally become a giantess,or intentionally cause any trouble .Im Innocent .I'm supposed to be free!
“True!But you must understand that you did cause some havoc though unintentionally as well as being well…a giantess,I'm sorry but you were just too dangerous to be around,that and we need to keep myths hidden and Giants aren't exactly easy to hide or cover up.And If you would be free many would panic and possibly even try to kill you. And also we have agreements for cover-ups for a reason you know for your benefit and societies at large”Monger said
“How did you even think you'll cover me up?And all these creatures and their actions as well?”I said trying to get him off his arguments though he did plant a seed of doubt in my head with his proclamations
“Well Link was actually “revealed” to be an actor in a suit who was part of a movie production and the whole thing including the footage was brushed off as a publicity stunt.The Wolf-man was just a gag of several teeagers who had a suit and scared people with it.”
“Bob was just called a lab explosion which caused the damage and some of the gasses escaping from it ,caused people to hallucinate.”
He finished his long speech with “I Could go on but you get the point.”
“But you can't just expect people to unsee me!There were many by me and I wouldn't be surprised if photos or videos were taken of it!You just can't tell them to unsee that!And you can't just do as if I never existed!”I said to try and fight against all of his statements.
“True,but we can give “explanations” and “reveal the truth to the public”.As for those who saw you we just advised them to not talk about it,besides no one would believe them.And those Photos were destroyed and while a video of it was leaked by someone at the wedding and shown on a Mystery channel we quickly disavowed its legitimacy.We said that it was actually done as a parody of monster movie made by some students in Modesto and sent there actually to promote their film efforts”
So…I really was alone asking if my parents or friends would visit would obviously be fruitless so I asked for the last remaining thing
“Can I at the very least call my parents or write to them?”I said holding on to a last string of hope for some,any contact
“That is not an option,there is a risk of an information leak”Monger continued in a stoic voice cutting off the last thread of hope
“EVEN A SERIAL KILLER HAS THE RIGHT TO THAT!”I screamed in rage,I was infuriated,I screamed so loud that some glass from some of the observatories cracked and broke.
Monger gave me a disapproving look which then turned into one which looked more like disappointment.
“I am sorry”He said
And with that he walked away…
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I contemplated the whole situation while some know the videos are taken as fake and anyone in Modesto who saw me would be discouraged and my parents couldn't do anything.I was…On my own.
I sat down and cuddled myself into a ball into one corner.I could feel tears slowly forming in my eyes.
“Cmon Susan”I said to myself “Get up and face it.It aint all bad!”I had to push through it.No more crying now!I thought that maybe what he told me were lies…fat chance!
So here I am in my dimly lit room,not long after the lights went out and the room plunged into darkness.I went down and started to cry again,I curled up into a ball and eventually stopped crying.I tried to make myself happy.
I tried to still dream about the happy days, the days of being NORMAL!Those days have to be back.
Then I thought about the test they conducted on me and those surveys of my body.There still is hope!The scientists were working out to find out what happened to me,and if they did they could cure me and everything could be just Honky Dory again…
“But…if they're trying to figure me out ,there must be more to it”I thought to myself.If they figured out how I work,what would stop them from making their own giants?I thought to myself. So I have two outcomes…and both bad…and even if they cure me, who knows how long…will Derek still be waiting for me?
That night I had a nightmare, giants destroying city blocks crushing innocent people causing war,death,famine and plagues…well ok maybe not plagues but still…..all this…and then I saw myself being pointed at by the victims in what was left of Modesto“You……you did this”One said “No wait I didn't mean to I”I tried to defend myself and those victims...they were my friends and "choke"family! “You…did this to us”Another one said. “This was all your fault,If it were not for you we wouldn't have lost everyone we knew,our homes and suffered greatly under all of this”
“MONSTER!MONSTER!MONSTER!”My former bes friends chanted while pointing at me in the ruins of my hometown."Wait Im sorry!I never wanted this.
Then I saw that they brought to me Derek…he was dead and they said “He Died because of you,”I looked at Derek…his starry eyes still looking outward as if searching for me,never to see me again in this barren wasteland.
“DEREK?DEREK!DEREK!”I cried out,Clutching his body,we would be forever separated husband and wife.Then I cried out “NOOOOO!!!!!”
With a shock I woke up and looked around just to make sure I was still here.
“Oh,It was only a bad dream”I said in relief, resting myself and giving a large sigh of relief,everything calmed down and was quite save for my breathing,I then thought back to the experiments,what happened in the dream could become maybe one day a sad reality.
I really have to get out of here.
----------------------------------------------------------
Firstly the end was done as a nightmare (So if it doesn't make sense or have contrivances i did it intentionally to boil it down to her worst fears and pains coming to get her,after all dreams(and nightmares) have no limitations and can really show us thing we cant see)
The Next Parts will be different:There lenghts may vary due to what part of the story thell tell and I will change the POV character too to give us more insight and characterisation of these characters(I am working on several chapters at once to make better connections between the stories and to plan ahead so sorry for the delays im working on it still)
I made this fake-out opening just because i thought that the monsters should watch something in there spare time(also yes Earth vs the Flying Saucers is a real film I had on dvd and though quoting it would make the opening more interesting…and those 5 percent are most likely the guardians and other such magical beings)
The Reason Wasps found Jaromir was because some babyteeth in the area were sent to look for him and managed to know exactly where he was heading and then telling tooth who told Wasp who were ready and waiting for him.
Description
She is human like in body and size,but with some difference like her scaly-green skin,her pointy ears(not to cartoonish proportions tough still)she also has violet hair and two of her teeth can be retractable between normal and sharp. It is stated in mythology are ruled by the smartest and strongest of them.Like she is motivated by greed.There are several breeds some may be nearly elf like and only live a few decades while others like herself are humanoid and are far more powerful and itelligent.For she can be stabbed right through and only have it as a slight flesh wound.She also has some weaponry like a flying broomstick like thingy.Like all she has the ability to see in darkness.While many say shes crazy its just one of her ploys to incite fear to her enemies.
While in myth they were all seen the same, some types(like hers)are considerably intelligent,despite being almost always portrayed as being ugly and dimwitted.
Fun Fact
The Guardians had to assemble to take her down,while she threatend to attack the world above.

Pt.2 MEET THE MONSTERS
“Are you awake Susan darling?”said a familiar voice.
“Derek!I had a nightmare, a terrible horrible nightmare that I was a hideous giantess.”
“Of course not," the voice said.”You're a very nice and handsome giantess.”
Or was it a dream?I cleared my eyes and my body was aching with pain and I saw Monger flying right in front of me in fact…“It wasn't a dream.” I realized,I felt utterly destroyed from this truth.I wanted to hide from this painful reality.
“Good News!Your time in solitary confinement is up!You're free to join the others!Oorah!”He said, hoping to cheer me up.
It was kinda relieving that I wouldn't be in one place in complete and utter solitude and finally get to talk to someone…then again that someone would be a hideous monster…And I was there,In solitary…alone,for days…at least I thought there were no clocks or skies to tell when it was day and night…time went by and I didnt have the slightest idea when was now or how long I was here.I was fed about three times a day I guess so i guess i was there about a week or so,they gave me oatmeal…I never really like it and this bulk army variation less.It was too dry and lumpy but I also got orange juice to balance it out.These were the loneliest days of my life…Id rather not even talk about them.
Monger and a trio of mini copters escorted me to the meeting room.Via the platform we went down with a level and then I was taken around the cells on my platform again.
This time I tried to look more closely. There were little people and little crates and all going about like ants in their antfill.
As we continued around, I saw many strange beings there…
I saw that buggy-scientist guy Dr…well something. At work he called out to me while playing with some toy bricks and building what looked like a toy brick variation of an atomic bomb.
“Aw Susan!You wouldn't happen to have some Uranium with you,I only need a little”I thought to myself that he must be joking no one would be that nutty.
The General did not: “Deny him his toy box privileges” he said to one of the guards.
“Yes Sir!”One of the guards replied via the walkie talkie.
Then I saw the Missing Link again. He was in his water tank lifting weights.
“Seven”
“Eight”
Then he noticed me and how I was looking at him.
“Nine Hundred Ninety Nine”
“One Thousand”
“Woah can't believe I did one thousand sets” he said trying to impress me and tossing away the weights,what was with him,did he think I didn't notice him till now?
This was some odd company I had here…but then again that should be expected.Because this place was built for monsters like- like- NO!I am not a monster, I am a normal girl who just by chance is stuck here!
We continued on…at times I looked at those strange beings despite not wanting to. They were hideous, they were odd,yet this morbid curiosity inside of me just forced me to just look at them.
Then I saw Grubzilla.
He was gigantic!Even in my view he was a giant…I shuddered in fear…just looking at him despite him not saying or doing anything scared me because after all he was a terrifying beast!All he was doing was looking at me… and then he roared and licked the glass as if he was trying to eat me!I was petrified.And to boot while I was a giant!But compared to this behemoth I was tiny…
While looking around I really started to see that the overall appearance of the prison was cold and sterile,with an eerie bluish cast from the fluorescent lights.
—------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Well you're here you can meet your new colleagues.After all you're going to be here for quite some time,OOOrah”Monger said when escorting me into the meeting room. “Oh and one more thing Monger” added to me. “The Government wants to change your name to something new” like a name which we will address you now that you're well ...you know. ,I put in a good word for you so they gave you the chance to decide it.”
“But I don't want to change my name” I said in protest! “My name is Susan!That's it!Susan Murphy!”
“Look this is how it's gonna be…be glad you can choose your name okay?” Monger cut me off giving me a bit of a look of displeasure with my ungratefulness,but then again it was still a change nonetheless.
“Oh and breakfast has been served”Monger added
In the meeting room at first I was alone…just me…I felt alone,but then again maybe it was for the better. those freaks could be dangerous…especially Grubzilla that way he licked the glass…he must have been really craving for me.Speaking of eating I didn't feel the least bit hungry I lost my appetite along with any taste.
I went to have a closer look at the common room she saw a big chair and a big table built just for me “When some people want to really do something,they can do it really fast”I said to myself ,when realizing how hard it must have been to do it and in such a timeframe it did help to lift my spirits a bit.But then I sat there and looked around…this place was so bare,like yes the chair and table were nice but it just felt so basic and dull as if all the color was out of its life. “A carpet,a few paintings and some flowers would be nice,”I said, dreaming about it.I sat in it,It was cold and not very comfortable while I wanted to complain I realized a chair of this size must have been made from construction girders used for skyscrapers and this was a sad reality,that this was how it just is.
“Well,Good day to you Susan!”A familiar voice said.
I quickly stepped back and screamed in terror,but then promptly stopped,I really had to get used to this…
“Oh,I understand your fear.But you seem to have been getting more accustomed to here,as last time you tried to crush me,and you seem to be getting better!Good for you” .After all be taken away and locked up in a prison not allowed to even say goodbye to your family and friends.And then meet us terrifying creatures at the same time,It is no surprise you were scared." He congratulated me.
“It's so nice to see you you again,The buggman continued “maybe this time we can meet on better terms.Sorry about Link bothering you,he was just a little excited”
He seemed to be a kind and intelligent fellow.Maybe they all weren't that bad I thought to myself he was quite nice and charming.
“I think I should formally introduce myself. I am Dr. Jacques-Yves or “Cockroach” that's my new name but both work.And you are Susan we didn't meet on best terms last time so I think we can give it a go again.
While I was looking at him I noticed that my Breakfast was on the floor. “Why is it there?” I asked.
“Practicality as just having to build a system to lift it would be hard so it was decided that It would make the most sense for you to do it without assistance”.
“Yeah great!”I said in a sarcastic tone I just didn't feel like well…Susan.
The Army kinda had a point after all just building a mere chair was hard and expensive, it was the cold hard truth.
Speaking of the chair, when I wanted to move it,it stayed in place. I looked down and noticed it was bolted in place…this place really was bare-bones. I couldn't move in neared or further just sit,then I looked at the food when I put in in front of me
“Is this-” I began to say.
“Yes it's oatmeal!It is served to all personnel for breakfast.”Jacques said.
“Sigh” Oatmeal again,why did it have to be oatmeal?Just remembering how I used to have homemade marmalade and sweet tasty pancakes smothered in maple syrup and tea with sugar…ah those sweet memories.
I noticed that Link and the blob were there but that werewolf who I noticed last time wasn't.
Then Grubzilla came in and he was looking at me.I was panicking on the inside at least,I told myself internally “Surely he's fead and wouldn't eat me,right?''I looked at him with uncertainty.
I examined him,he was weird, he was bi-pedal and had some plates on what I assumed to be his tale,he was terrifyingly weird and scary.
The atmosphere was tense…
Suddenly Grubzilla reached out for me!
I was petrified in place!
His pincer arms caught me and took me!
“Oh no!NO!NO!NO!HE'S GOING TO EAT ME!!!”I screamed in terror.
He took me up and,and,and, and then he!���hugged me on his belly? I calmed down it was oddly relaxing.Quaint…he was trying to calm me.His fur was like feathers.They were so soft, I felt…lifted.I felt as If my Mother was hugging me when I was a little girl.I felt relaxed,calmed by him.It was so comforting of him.
“Just when I needed it”I said merrily.
“That means that he”likes you Link said
I rubbed his foot back and he happily stomped and then he purred,Like a cat but because of it being a creature of his size it couldn't really hear it but feel it.
I started wondering about grubbzilla and then I aksed Jacques.
“What,what even is he?”I asked,he was so odd his face kinda reminded me of a hamster. He had a tail and two big legs standing like a dinosaur,with four pincer-like arms and two antennas.
"He's a Giant mutated grub -Bombyx Mori to specify.Got Hit by radiation from Castle Bravo nuclear test in the pacific.Apart from growing he had a few other changes to his biology like the ability to shoot silk and his appearance changing quite a lot."
“He has a taste for Japanese Cities,Oh and his brain is still bug-sized" Jacques adeded sarcastically.
"Hey!Link said angrily Grubzilla wasn't actually attacking the city.He was teething on buildings since grubs don't have teeth and getting teeth was one of the side-effects."
“Wait, if he's from Japan why is he kept here?”I wondered.
“Because Dear Susan,this facility was made for such beings and it is the only real place of its type in the world!And there is an international agreement between the world governments to hide them here and assist with capturing them and denying them,which is also coupled with an agreement that other myths which do not disturbed the balance are to assistant in not being exposed.”
"How are you even like this?"I asked Dr.Jacques-Yves
“I am a brilliant scientist. While a little batty at times,I was quite normal.Until the day I tried my experiment with a machine which had the mutation enhancements of certain bug life to combine my genes and get the benefits. By test number 78 I was ready to have a go for it.It turned me into this hybrid mad genius.While it gave me the cockroaches ability to survive and the ability to walk on walls it came at a high price,I was half cockroach…and if that wasn't enough my after my transformations my mind shifted…it changed.I found myself no longer liking many things as I did before but liking things a bug would like.”
"How did you even end up here?"I asked him.
“Well I won't bore you, the change made me just lose myself,things just kinda happened.I was kind of out of control ,I tried to take over some countries the government was called in and I ended up here.”
“That over there missing Link Half-ape Half Fish.When explorers accidentally found him,scientists were sent to thaw him out.He immediately escaped and headed directly for the beaches which were his old watering home,went on a rampage,kidnapped several women and fought back and after a few actions Monger was sent and managed to bring him here.”
“That Blob is the Blob but we like to call him Bob.”
“He was created in an experiment with tomatoes and chemically altered ranch salad dressing. He is a creature of very little intellect but ,I must admit that he is by far the happiest of us. His blinding stupidity and mirthful ignorance just help him.He is a simpleton,but a happy simpleton.”
Well…this was interesting,.I thought to myself maybe they know something about this place I didn't. Any of them could tell me more about how this place goes,then an idea flew into my head!Maybe they allowed visits here…maybe I could see Mom and Dad and even Derek!
“Are there any visitors here,you know family or friends?I asked hopefully with a slight glint of hope in my eyes.”
“Family?To be truly honest Susan none of us really had any family.For instance I was always so busy and caught up in my work that I never truly had a family or even many friends. I was married to my work…yet even despite that I at times just seem to lack a certain something in my life as if I'm empty.”
“As for Link, his family and species died out many millennia ago leaving him alone in a world that moved on without him and he didn't have the best relation to women he kidnapped.He is truly a relic of a bygone era.”
"Bob is a result of an experiment so he had no real connection to anybody or anything.The closest thing he had was that he is part tomato but that's about it."
"Grubzilla never really had a family he was just hatched and left alone to his own devices, so he went on his own and had an adventure which led him here."
“But I have a Family!”I said, choking on my words “And i want to see them!”
I started to cry again
Link came up come on “Girly it isn't that bad give us a chance…and give me a chance im the tough guy after all”
“Link I think it would be best for you to Leave Susan alone,what she went through none of us did to be frank.”Jacques said to Link
“To be honest,we are the closest thing we ever had to a family.” Jacques added in.
“Any others here?”I asked, trying to get myself out of the gutter.
“Well yes but not all of them are as sociable as us…Some have been locked up for good and aren't even let into the meeting room.”
Really?Which?
“Well we have quite a few most aren't as friendly or sociable like us.That is why they usually stay permanently locked up in there cages as they would only cause trouble.We have all sorts of beings here thought to be mythical creatures A giant sea serpent,dragons,Harpies,Invisible Man.They were all caught either by Monger or governments with assistance from various other groups.”Jacques though back likely remembering the first meeting.
“There's also Beastman who is a werewolf. While he comes out he can only control himself in the day hours so his visits to the meeting room are often sporadic and limited.Hes quite charismatic and gentlemanly but can at night he is feral.He actually gave himself up to the government.”
This was so odd all these things that were supposed to be confined to imagination…they were all real and here.
“Susan dear?You wouldn't mind if I made a check on you?”
“It's fine…I guess.”
He ran some checks through his computer and other such ways. It was less embarrassing then in the lab I had to admit at least I was treated more like a person on a check-up rather than some oddity of nature that was being explored.
After a while Jacques said“This is oddly fascinating. Despite your size you seem to have abnormal strength and energy…”
“What energy?What strength?I don't feel powerful?I shouldn't even be here, I'm a normal girl”This was weird for me,and about to get weirder.
“Indeed,one of the most interesting ones I had the honor of knowing.
After re-examining his studies he looked at me.
“Hmm,your height is 15.214 meters 49 feet 11 inches,however your weight is not equal to your height.”
“My weight?”I added what was he rambling about?
“Exactly,you weigh less than twelve tons.You weigh merely 11.8 tons which is a quarter of what it should be at your proportions.You're amazingly light!”
“LIGHT!?”I screamed in shock and horror.
“I am as heavy as an elephant!”This was disgusting.Just the fact alone that I was as heavy as an elephant made me feel repulsed.
“A smidge heavier actually my dear.”He added "Remember you are far taller than an elephant.And the cube law which dictates if you increase somethings mass by a factor of two its mass increase by the cube…however in your case it seems as though your strength was cubed instead.How Lucky for you.And wait!There's more to you!Your cardiopulmonary system,your nervous system by any normal biological sense you defy all scientific logic!Whatever caused this would defy all laws of normal physics!But let's be honest you're not the only one to do that…But it is so monumentally fascinating!
“I dont get it…i was a normal girl and now im heavier that an elephant and disproportionately strong…”
“Of course you were!”He said soothingly.I looked at his odd face nervously and listened.
After a while Monger flew in?”Susan Murphy!Have you chosen your new name yet?!”Monger shouted he must have been busy,his temper was not good.
“No,I completely forgot sir.”It's just that i was just having a talk with some of the others here an-
“I get it,I can come back later and check if you got your new name,so long as you're happy with it”He said and left he is quite a busy man.
This Left me deep in thought she wanted to think of a name.
“I just need to think of a name,a name that best describes me,a name like…
Amazon Babe?Link proposed. “Big,Strong and Beautiful”he added.I layed down into a position
I shook my head. “No something else…delicate like a blossom,elegant like a ballerina.
Like bob?Bob the blob said.
“No youre bob!”Link said
“Oh yeah!I keep forgetting.Bob said rather brainlessly.
“Well you see it's not easy trying to be a woman,and a Giantess is even harder”
“I don't know” Link said “I never tried to be either”
“It's just when most imagine giants there are big and hairy monster.Dumb and masculine.”
How about Garganta,Ginormica…or……THE AMAZING COLOSSAL WOMAN!Link said
“You got that from a movie right?”I said in a lighter tone slightly chuckling to myself.
“You know it would be better if I were a Man,Men are always so strong and big and muscle bound.I need the name to be cute and delicate, while I weigh almost twelve tons and have over 20 foot long fell. It still doesn't mean i can't be gentle…”I said slowly thinking back on ideas for a name.
“So youre saying you need a name which shall be most fitting for yourself as with your form and with your personality in one.” Jacques-Yves said.
!Which would be the right name for it?MEGA-MAID?Monsterina?"
“How about Gaia?”Jacques replied he was done with his examinations of collected data and was paying me full attention.
"Well...I dont know"I said in uncertainty.
“She originates from Greek mythology.She is a giant,the personification of Earth and mother of all life.And the mother of the Titans,Cyclops and other giants”
“Gee,thanks Doc.But I think it's too vague like yeah she sounds good but the name just doesn't seem to fit me”I said after some deep thinking in my head.
Jacues-Yves went back deep into his thought and ended the silence with another well thought out suggestion.
“How about Titania?”
Now this sounded interesting, it did have that power and softness in it.It was by far the most fitting name so far.But it wasn't completely sold on it,but it sparked my interest.
That sounds interesting”
“Oh it is!”He said with a smile “It's from ancient classical Roman legend.It was the name given to the daughters of the Titans!”You might have heard of it sometime.He said looking proud of his suggestion.
No,I don't think so.Am I supposed to?I asked
The Queen of the Fairies in Shakespeare's Midsummer night's dream!So its fitting to represent both sides of you!
“That's great,...but I think it needs a bit of a change.Something just to deviate a little and make it inspired yet at the same time with a hint of familiarity Doc.”
Well let's think about it,meanwhile maybe we can talk about that Shakespearean classic!...you read it right?
“Well to be honest doc,I never read anything shakespeare.But I did see Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet with Derek.”I said abashed, my memories quickly came back.How she loved that movie and Derek did too it was such a romantic night…sigh…if only it were…if only it were.
You…never read Shakespeare?Jacques said in surprise. “I hope you don't mind me asking you this but where did you go to?”
“Well…I said, continuing to reminisce on my past. It was kinda normal standard school,not some school for gifted which you surely went to”
Actually my was fairly standard to Dr. Admitted “Not an extraordinary amount of geniuses there to be truthful”But they did force a few old classics into us students quite meticulously.
“Not by us.I think we did some Shakespeare in English,but I never was really interested in it.I remember only just something like First Folio and one thing about Fair is..well something”
Well then,First Folio is a compilation of 36 plays from Shakespeare whereas “Fair is Foul and Foul is fair”Is from Macbeth The power of unchecked ambition is the main theme of Macbeth and that sentence is one of the first in the entire book.
“Wow,you seem to know everything there is to know”I said he really was the smartest person I ever met.
“No,not at all!For instance I don't exactly how you grew to this size and how you defy so many laws of physics”
But I do seem to have quite an oddly good memory for such trivial things.
“I dont”I sighed. I had to admit I felt very ignorant dumb after that conversation with all things a bugman.
Then I remembered the name I thought about and thought about how to add that something to it.Than I came up with it!
I think I'll choose to call myself……TITANICA!

BIRTH OF A MONSTER(Original Story Part 1)
I Once heard a saying you never fully and truly care about something important till it's gone taken from you in an instant.Before you can react,or even comprehend it.And when it happens that's it,you can't change it,you can't go back to how it once was,you can't make up for it…you can't do anything.
My name is Susan or rather was.I was normal girl with a normal life somewhat meek and unassertive.I had many friend and loved as they supported me on getting ready for my big day.The day I would marry my dream boy,my love Derek,it was like a dream come true.I was getting ready for my wedding day I went with three of my best friends to the beauty salon to get myself ready with a makeover.
“You look gorgeous sweetheart”
“Thanks Mom,”I told my mother.
After that I put on my wedding dress and I arrived at the church and my father was waiting for me there.
“My little girl!”He smiled and opened his arms
“Daddy!”I cried jumping into my dads arms with glee
“Now I want you to know that,even though I'm about to give you away… I will always be there for you”He said, nearly crying.
“Oh,don't cry," I said but I couldn't help it either.
“You'll make me cry too and that's just gonna be a mess”
"I can't help it!"Daddy sobbed as he walked towards the church with me.
Afterwards I went in and had a talk with Derek and his Mother.
And I went on with Derek outside by the Gazebo and continued it afterwards
We had a talk about our future,I felt as if I was on top of the world!
I ended it with playfully adding“Now get out of here. It's bad luck to see me in my dress now”
"Oh come on!You know I don't believe in that stuff" Derek said to me as he walked away back to the church
“I'll be waiting for you at the Altar.The handsome news anchor in the tux!”
He called out back to me in a friendly, nearly romantic tone.
I love you too I told him softly with a smile…I still do…
So I stood there thinking about my future.How I was about to live with the boy of my dreams.
But then I heard a strange sound. I saw something falling out of the sky in teal color.When suddenly I saw something…in the distance it was falling out of the sky!I was completely frightened and I tried to escape it.But as I ran, it came closer and closer.I tried to still hit me,almost as if it had a mind of its own.
I was terrified but also surprised. I wasn't hurt by it at all. I tried to brush it off and go on with my marriage chances where it was just in my head. My mom fortunately had another gown in case the one I had would get dirty.I had to go this was the big day…and it was.I walked up to the Altar with my mom and dad and then at the altar Derek lifted my veil and I saw into those starlight eyes of Dereks was there at the altar“You're Glowing”he said.
I smiled. It was so sweet of him to compliment me. “Thank You”. “No really Susan, you're like Glowing green!”
I looked at myself in shock and horror,He was right.I couldn't tell what was happening “No!”My hair was turning from chestnut brown to snow white!Everyone was shocked and scared the world was growing smaller”You're all shrinking i cried”No “You're growing”Derek said to me in horror.“Well make it stop”.
It was true what was happening to me, my clothes were stretching and I was in complete shock.
“This is impossible,no no this can't be happening”I was growing larger and larger and the roof of the church was pushing me down.Everyone started to panic and run away in fear towards the exit.And while I tried to calm them down it didn't help.Everyone was frightened by me…why did it have to be me?
“Derek,Help me”I said to my love who still stayed faithfully there by my side,I bet he'd follow me even into the depths of hell so long as we would be together.He was confused and scared and he couldn't do anything.Then I grew too big and despite trying to bend myself down.I was just too big, and I broke right through the church roof and accidentally knocked down the bell tower.What was going on?
Most of the people were running away when suddenly a bunch of helicopters and soldiers and jeeps appeared as if they were on cue waiting for this exact situation to happen.They were coming towards me.
Then I realized poor Derek was buried under some beams which were knocked down.“Derek!Derek!”I yelled in fear that my love was hurt and I pulled him out.
“Susan?” He told me fondly.
“Oh Thank goodness you're okay”I was relieved that he wasn't hurt,I couldn't live without him.
“What's Happening to me?”I asked him, hoping he might know something or at least have a clue.
When suddenly a bunch of grappling hooks were fired at me and got stuck to my hands and I accidentally dropped Derek. Fortunately he was caught in a net the soldiers had.
“Who are you people?What are you doing?”Derek tried to come to me but was swiftly taken away from me by a bunch of soldiers and pushed him away.“Stop it be careful”I said as I broke the ropes and tried to chase after Derek.I would not let anything, ever seperate us from being newlyweds.
“Please Just leave me alone”I pleaded with them,but they said absolutely nothing and promptly launched a giant syringe at me in return. It hit me in my thigh.
The world is starting to get dizzy. I was losing focus. I was woozy and weak.I tried to escape only for them to trip me and tie ropes around my ankles. I fell flat on the ground with more grappling hooks tying me downThey fired some ropes at me and tied me up. I started to lose consciousness…I saw Derek ahead of me and saw the horror on Derek's face as he saw what I have become.
“Derek.” I said in an Endearing tone getting my last glimpse at Derek who tried to come back to save me.
And that was it.
Darkness…
“Derek Derek, I'm sorry!I'm so sorry!”I said, waking up.
I woke up with a headache. I didn't have a clue of what happened to me,all I remember was that last night was my wedding day. It was all so hazy as if my memories were gone and there was only a blank slate left.
When i woke up I had a headache and I also wondered where was I?At first I thought It was some sort of Prison...I felt so embarrassed,I must have broken the law...what a bride I was on the big day and I'm in prison....but how?I tried to remember the wedding and I only remembered some faint details.
I was in a strange cell in an odd jumpsuit.Oh this bed was uncomfy it was like a steel slab. Where was I?This wasn't a normal cell, it was...strange.I was alone,I was frightened. What was happening?Where am I?Why am I being held here?What happened to me?Suddenly a red flashing light came on while I was contemplating what had just happened alI was scared it was dark but then I saw the wall behind me move, flooding the room with light. I tried to hide in a corner but the cell moved me out.
Now I was very scared,I hunched over into a ball and looked around.I was in a huge five sided chamber,brightly lit,and it seemed to be empty.I was feeling dizzy everything felt as if in slow motion.The walls all sloped inwards and they had more trapezoid doors.But there was no one there.
“Hello Is there anybody here,could you tell me where I am?”I called out
Silence was the answer
Then I saw several small openings,little hatches at the base of the floor and some tiny glass panels at various places.
“This must be a dream” I told myself
I was dead wrong.
I met other inmates in a sorta meeting room. In my cell it was dark, it was gray and bleak and foreboding. In fact the entire base was in the same monotonous dull uninviting shade.
They were strange and scary.I didn't want to talk with them, I wanted to talk to a real person.
One of them looked like a bug.
One of them the missing link would keep calling me giant girl
“Why do you keep calling me that You Are the Tiny one barely bigger than that other one over there!”I was annoyed with him calling me what I was not.
“Uh, No Susan”One of them said I'm Actually 6 feet tall.”He said to me.
“What do you mean?”I quickly retorted “You can't be that tall I could pick you up with one hand!”
“What I mean my dear ,is that based on your general height based on your proportions should be around 16 meters by 50-feet if you want to use your archaic measurements”Was his response
“Impossible,I said You're a tiny monster buggy-thingy Bugs are small Im a normal girl!”
“Ah,no not any not anymore,sorry”He said it in a calm, nearly soothing voice trying not to freak me out of my wits.”You are in fact a Giantess.Look at yourself”
I slowly and nervously stood up and looked around at myself,at my legs and arms it was all normal.
“I…look perfectly normal”I said happily, managing to prove this monster wrong. I WAS NORMAL!
“Better take another look at that Jumpsuit you're wearing”He suggested.
I did so,Earlier I noticed how tiny,almost silken,it was and the fact it was sewn together from lots of smaller panels.Now when I took a closer look the stitching was almost invisibly small it looks as if dozens of little bits of fabric had been sewn together into one huge one to make my clothing.
“I…”I gasped for breath?ME?A GIANTESS?Then the whole world came flooding back into my mind.The world getting smaller..as I grew taller and bigger,It was at the Church just before the marriage was about to go through.I was feeling so amazing,so strong going there to be MRS.DEREK.The Weathermans wife and then suddenly everything go smaller…or maybe me bigger.People shouting,screaming trying to flee the church and then getting bigger and bigger and bigger.And the…little men, they were wearing black suits and helicopters…trying to tie me down.I was clutching Derek my Dream Boy in my hand.Then i felt a pain and…that was it.
I tried to clear it..
What was I?A monster?NO!THIS WASN'T POSSIBLE!!!IT COULDN'T BE?!THIS WAS ALL WRONG!
My wedding ruined,all my friends and family terified and Poor Derek- I felt tears welling up..
I pounded on the thick steel plates in a futile attempt to get out."THIS ISNT RIGHT!!!"
Soon after I met General Monger…
“Oh finally a real person,you are a real person not one of those half-person half-machines”
“A cyborg.” Monger said
“Oh No” I said "You're a cyborg!”
“MADAM!I can assure i am not a cyborg”The names General W.R.Monger he replied.
“What is this place?Who are you?Who are all these people?”The questions just spilled out of me.I wanted to know what had happened and what was going on.
“This here is a secret underground prison facility which houses monsters like you.”he said while flying around me with his jetpack. “All shall be answered in due course”he added.
Monger was telling me this while showing me around the base and I was on a platform carrying me around.With my size the people looked like ants tending to their nest.I felt so nervous some of them were looking at me,right through me with those curious glances.We were heading through a long vaulted corridor,with balconies and offices on several levels.But most were beyond my eye-sight.All the people walking and going about were no larger than those monster I had encountered.Then I realized.Either the entire world shrunk, or I was well and truly a giant.
“This facility is a top secret underground military base,”Monger explained to me."It works to house monsters such as yourself."
“I am not a monster. I'm Susan,22 from California. I'm an American citizen!”"I have my rights!"
“I'm sorry but you're no longer covered by them, a Special Order applies!”
“Special Order?What special order?”I was confused by what Monger told me.I wanted to know the truth behind this awful travesti.
“You see, since certain parts of the government made official contact and confirmed the existence of well lets just say the myths and legends and other such mysterious beings. It was decided by both sides that the best course of action was to continue secrecy and assist with it not to off-set the balance of the two worlds and try to leave each other alone.The government continued its demeanor that stuff like the easter bunny,yetis and monsters were legends and were not real to prevent chaos and terror of the unknown,disrupt civilization or harm them.While this works there are some which deviate from the rest appear in the open,and cause terror and are a menace. So we lock them up here where they won't cause any destruction and panic”
“Locked IN HERE?!How long do I have to stay here?”I said in complete agony which worsened when I realized that I was in an underground cavern.
“Indefinitely” Monger said in reply
“Indefinitively,That means I can't leave ever?”Susan gasped
“No” Monger said “And no one knows that you're here.Or even where here.This palace is an X-file,wrapped in coverup,Not even a myth as a myth has some believers,Not even deep fried paranoid conspiracy theorists don't believe or know about it.This place location is more secret than Santa's Workshop!And 10 times more secure” he added.
“I can't leave?" I repeated in a whisper… “Why?HOW CAN YOU DO THIS?!Do you think Derek will let you get away with this kidnapping?”
“Actually he wont have a choice and he can't do anything anyway.And you cannot be release…Not while you're such a potential danger to others and risk to society”
“I AM NOT A DANGER!”I shouted trying to argue,I was overwhelmed by it all and tried to fight it.
“Look OUT!” Monger said as I accidentally hit one of the gyrocopters around me luckily the pilot managed to survive.
CODE SEVEN,WE GOT A CODE SEVEN I heard the other copter pilots say.
I almost killed a person…“Im sorry Im so sorry I didn't mean it i wailed in apology for my accident”.Monger was…right i was a danger as much as it pained me to admit it.
“What even happened to me?”
“We don't exactly know everything.Recently a monitoring outpost detected something we didn't know what it was but it landed in Modesto California in your church lawn to be exact”
“My Church?” I gasped in “You mean during our wedding?”
“Yes it directly hit you and then just disappeared leaving you unharmed as if by magic you got some interesting side effects.”
“You mean I got hit?”At this time I had a dim memory of what happened. All I remember was a dream that I was trying to run from something but i couldn't escape it.
“What about Derek?”
“Your fiancéé has been told that you are being held by the government,that's all he needs to know!”Monger told me.
“Now there will be absolutely zero contact with the outside world.”
I realized my platform was climbing up some levels and a realization flew into my head.
“Where am I going?”
“To the lab we need to take some physical exams”
“Physical?Are you going to cure me?”I said with a glimmer of hope.
“Not at this stage we can't maam” Monger said, killing the hope.
“Do you have an idea how?”Susan said, holding on to it.
“That's what the physical is for,it's best if you cooperate after all it's for your own good.”
I was reluctant on one hand because the knowledge from research on md could be used for military uses potentially it could even cost peoples lives.On the other hand if they didn't figure what was up with me then I would stay giant forever and be stuck in this hole……………for always……….and always…….and always.
“Anyway you going for it now”
“Were here”As we came there,It was yet another high vaulted corridor.
Reluctantly after a little back and forth in my head I went of her platform followed the general.While the thought of being possibly cured again and seeing Derek who must have been worried sick was calming,it wasn't enough my eyes started to water again and i tried my best not to choke on my tears.
A tear escaped my eye as I started the physical…as heavily splashed on the ground.
After that I was taken to the lab for some physical exams by a scientist. It was humiliating and uncomfortable and so embarrassing for me. I just wanted to bury my head somewhere just not be here and be treated like a strange specimen.
"Subject 005 Please lie down and submit yourself for inspection"One of the tiny scientists said to me,with a sigh I complied.
They gave me orders on what to do and how and they carried out all sorts of weird tests on me.Like carrying object which were no bigger than the general either the whole world shrunk or I was a Giantess it was then that i fully came to grasp with this concept sure I knew it but now it was through and through.
I couldn't wait until it was finished and when it was I was tremendously relieved.
“Can you cure me now?”
“Course not!We only finished our basic physical exam,it takes months or even years before we have enough information,And that is IF you can even be cured……”
YEARS?!”I gasped and it all came crashing down as I realized that I will be here for years, maybe even forever.I felt dizzy,NO this couldn't be right i told myself internally.This couldn't be possible,My parents…Derek someone would get me out!
As I followed Monger around the base and took me on an elevator platform to my destinations. As I looked around I made it out a giant five-sided shaft, the lowest parts lost in the depths of darkness,lined with large windows and observation portals.And a tall tower in the middle,it looked like a prison tower.
“What is this place?”I asked
“Observation Area ,You will be held here your first nights so we can keep an eye out for you,you will be monitored at all times”
“All the time,Like in no privacy?”
“I'm sorry but it is a mandatory requirement”Monger said in a nearly apologetic tone.
"Monsters don't get Privacy"
“Inside”
I looked inside. It was just like the small cell I woke up in…my face crinkled in despair.
“We had the Prison Psychiatrist decorate your cell, try to keep calm-like”.Monger said pointing to a small poster on a wall. It was a poster of a small kitten holding on to a branch above with captions Hang in there…I, I ,I……started to cry.
“But I don't want a poster. I said to that flying general I want a real kitten,Hanging on a real tree… I WANT TO….GO HOME!”
“Come on little Susie…don't cry.Try to rest like a good little…I mean a good big girl,Now try not to take it as a Prison but as a hotel but you can never leave cause you're locked up from the inside.”
“Wait what?A prison?But I didn't do anything. Help!”
And so the doors shut,and fear and terror overwhelmed me,I looked around nervously. The cell was even darker and gloomier than the last one,the only thing
“What will become of me?”
I lay there in the darkness alone and silent with hope going and all that was leaving me with was despair.
I started to sing to myself quietly to try and lift my spirits up.
"I wanted to be married"
¨I wanted to wander and roam,I wanted to see places I'd never seen. But now I just wanna go home. Tell me when do I get to go home"
"All I wanna do is go back to Modesto. All I wanna do is get back to my friends' 'I don't wanna be stuck here forever and always"In this secret base where imprisonment never ends. I wanted adventure.I wanted to roam. I wanted new places but now I want home. I mean it, I have to go home."
I felt so downhearted,but then I got up and started to bang the doors.
"So lock up your gates with your skeleton keys.You can't make me stay where I don't wannabe!
It's not right
It's not fair
This is no place for me"
Singing only momentarily lifted my hopes up...then i remebered all my friends and family. And then Derek...all of the people I knew,I liked....I.......Loved!I will never see them again...Its just me here and they can do nothing to save me.No knights in shining armour,Or action heroes.NOTHING...just me...
And so here I am now .In a cell,more alone than I've ever been in my entire life.
“Cmon get a grip on yourself Susan youre not a Monster,and there is a chance.And as small as that chance might be that one day maybe just maybe i will be free…till then i gotta hang in there” I tried to tell myself i tried to grasp that speck of hope but it flickered out despite her reassurance.
I tried to fight it,but now I am fully submerged in a sea of despair.I gave up the last strings of fruitless hope. No one could help me,no one even knows where I am,and I can't do anything to escape…Im going to be here forever and possibly even longer.
So then I slumped in a corner as far away as I could get from the watchful eye of the observation tower.I buried my head into my eyes,and cried and cried till I cried myself to sleep.
I can't lie to myself anymore,this is the end.
There is No hope…
I am all Alone……
My Life is over…

WILL THE WHALE!
Monger was happily singing to himself casually
Stocking supplies for the apocalypse
Doodley doo
Were all gonna die
doodley doo
Only the prepared will survive
doodley doo
In the secret underground safety bunker there was a big argument.
Gentlemen please!NO FIGHTING IN THE WAR ROOM!The President said.
Link was putting on at full blast the song LEGAL TENDER
Will you please turn that infernal racket off!!!!!!!!!
Cmon Monger we can't have the end of everything without a rocking song to go with it.
Trying to lift up Carls spirits after hearing that he will never be reunited with everyone he ever know Monger said to cheer him up
“Look if it makes you feel any better the apocalypse is coming soon,BURY YOUR GOLD!...you've been buying your gold…right?
The President had a quick speech
“My fellow americans…you know what I must do so let's just skip to it…and promptly pressed the Nuke launch button.”
They recruited the most powerful….feared…and strong force to ever embrace the light of existence……………..
WILL………….THE……….WHALE!
An army of aliens were marching for DC. when suddenly Will the whale appeared!!!!
He shook his flipper at them and gave them…THE LOOK!!!
And all the aliens and alien moths ran as quickly as they could.
He was sent to fight alongside other specialist against the aliens.
So it was decided to use:THE DERANGED MUTANT KILLER TEENAGE MONSTER NINJA SPACE TOADS!!!!!!!!!!!Are you scared?
Monger couldnt help but start to cry...sniff..."my entire life was but a prelude to this magic moment"He said while shoting armies of space mutants with rocket launchers
Suddenly he saw a poster saying “Nuke the whales!”Showing some whales flying like birds and screaming like eagles after getting nuked and blown out of the water.He looked at it mournfully he wanted to fly like them just seeing those happy wales the must be the luckiest creatures in existence he wish that was him.Fly like birds made him wish he could.He never felt like this in his entire life he had to express it as best he could how he felt so he thought a moment plucked up courage and said to everyone that poignantly beautiful word he came up with.
“Will the whale”
Due to him whilst being a genius and high class among whales he was limited by his capacities by his whale system so his vocabulary was limited to only saying Will the Whale….
Will the whale found out(Through reading the newspaper) that the alien overlord was responsible for the death of his whale swarm sans him.He was the whaler of the moon,(as well as sailor)He remembered them his memories pained him through and through he had trauma and then he standed up and told the overloard the most insulting words he could say.The words that best Expressed how he feeled!
WILL THE WHALE!WILL THE WHALE!WILLLLL THHHHEEEE WHHHHALLLEEE!HE SCREAMED IN AGONY AND ANGER AT THIM.Lost control and charged at him but missed him and hit a rock face instead…
Meanwhile a mad scientist(actually not really mad, quite kind and cheerful)was busy at work creating…a boggity…boggity…MONSTER!!!!
Yes…the Monster…………..CHICKENSTEIN!!!!!!!!
Chickenstein was sent to conquer the Alien's forces.The Alien leader looked at him and shot a bolt at him so hard it instantly destroyed him.
Who wants some fried chicken he said in a sarcastic tone.
Will the Whale was at rock bottom he never felt so depressed(He had just lost Chickenstein) but he fought back and got ready to tell all his friends an uplifting speech to help them get back into the fight!Something that's woord will pierce right through them and give them new life!
Will the whale?Will the Whale?Will the whale…,Will the whale.Will the whale,Will the whale?Will the whale?Will the whale!Will the whale!!Wiiiiiiilllllltthhhhheeee whhaaaaallllleeeeeeeee!
HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!

ROTG canceled Sequel-SCRIPT!(Found media!!!)
La fin du monde
Extateres arrivent
The Moon made an announcement to the world at large revealing his true intentions: a mind like ourselves, an intellect vast and cool and unsympathetic regarding the plain of existence and our planet at the center of it with envious eyes and slowly but surely drawing his plan against us…
Tonight important news!ACTION NEWS MODESTO CA.
Greetings people of Earth I am Moon soon to be the grand ruler of all.I am here for my moonrocks to give them to me at once!
(Reporter 2)Wow!will you look at that
He made an address to the Earth
Saying it in every country in every language.
Bonjour les genstes de le terre earthy
Saudandons as gentsos de la terra firmy
Saluti,la gentes di terra earthy
Pozdrav vy genty na Zemisky terry?
I SAY Ello you lot down there and terra firma
I have come for you…all of you!
I have been there since the beginning every day growing stronger and fauxing you and your mighty military forces and alleged myths and legends. My Lunar fleet is ready so I can sail off the moon with my army of Lunar robots and Moths to annihilate your civilization afterwards.
When North saw this he calmly drank some cocoa and the flipped ultimate emergency switch.
Moon's forces attacked in the first wawe only the most important towns:New York,Paris,Los Angeles,Rio,Quebec,Pencaster,Pilsen, and Pontypandy,Wales.
This isn't a war, the Chief fire officer Boyce said. It never was a war, any more than there's war between man and ants.' Pontypandy doesn't have a single police officer let alone army base due to the town being involved in so many fires it was decided to give all the funds to the F.D. and canceled the other to keep the town in one piece.Which turned out to be an supringly unsurpisingly bad idea.
1-B1 Lancers were diverted on a there”milk run”to destroy the moons earth base.
The President had a quick speech
“My fellow americans…you know what I must do so let's just skip to it…and promptly pressed the Nuke launch button.”
North and Jack were having a great time talking about and eating rabbit stew and talking about boiled rabbits and how tasty they are unbeknowst to them Bunnymund was there.
In the secret underground safety bunker there was a big argument.
Gentlemen please!NO FIGHTING IN THE WAR ROOM!The President said.
Bunnymund was putting on at full blast the song LEGAL TENDER
Will you please turn that infernal racket off!!!!!!!!!
Cmon Monger we can't have the end of everything without a rocking song to go with it.
Frost manadged to redeem some of the robots with an big speech that made them realized the truth
"Uhhh...why are you bad?Why cant you be like..I dont know?Good?"
The robots imeaditly killed all there former friends which were also robots after this realization.
Moon came across a kid and said:WELL,WELL WELL If it isnt,Sandy!?His mother came in"His name is not sandy". "Shut up Toothiana"Moon replied
Bunnymund and his entire egg army was getting ready to fight
"Why must the world come to an end on Easter"he said to himself angrily.
NEWSPAPER:PREZ JIMMY CARTER SAYZ:TIME TO PRAY…
meanwhile
North was so speechless he lost his voice
Phil the yeti to Dingle the elf
“North has lost his voice!”
“I hope he finds it soon," Dingle said in reply.
Monger couldnt help but start to cry...sniff..."my entire life was but a prelude to this magic moment"He said while shoting armies of moonbots with rocket launchers...and seing sandys giant dynosaurs stomping them to pieces made him add"This is not a dream...its the great reality of life!"
Jack Frost was angry:MIM YOU HAVE KILLED MY FATHER!!!AGAIN!!!!HE WAS FURIOUS
“Now,when you came here I said you were fools who would never accomplish anything and would only die….and now I see….that I was right.
Meanwhile a mad scientist(actually not really mad, quite kind and cheerful)was busy at work creating…a boggity…boggity…MONSTER!!!!
Yes…the Monster…………..CHICKENSTEIN!!!!!!!!
HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!
