Lisa was beginning to panic. For some reason the damn shrink-ray would start up. Repeatedly she pressed the buttons only to be met with nothing. Had she done something wrong!? Was the damn thing busted!? If so then did that mean her father would spend the rest of his life as speck?
"No! No! No! No! No! What am I gonna do!" Lisa cried. "Come on you piece of junk... Work!"
The ray refused to fire. Lisa felt the tears building in her eyes. Another thing for her to feel guilty about as she was the one who shrank her father in the first place. Sure he gave her his blessing to do so, but that didn't matter in the least.
Before she could finally let the tears fall, her ears picked up a faint beeping sound. Looking to another monitor that was completely blacked out, she flipped it on. What she saw sent a wave of relief through her body. The ray wasn't broken, it just needed to charge.
Her father wasn't doomed. He just had to be patient. And by the looks of it, the shrink ray was self recharging too. Lisa wiped her eyes clean. "That's a relief."
Meanwhile in the white room, Steve waited with baited breath for his magnum opus to do it's work. He just wanted to be normal sized again and forget about this whole day. No doubt he'll be seeing Lisa's giant naked body in his nightmares.
He was soon pulled out of his thoughts as he felt the familiar large tremors of human feet. He looked to the side to see his daughter entering the white room. Why was she re-entering before restoring him? Had she changed her mind!? Steve prayed to god that wasn't the case.
He was soon plucked from the ground by her enormous fingers and placed gently into her palm. "Sorry daddy. But the shrink-ray needs a while to re-charge before it's ready to fire again. Right now it's at about ten percent."
Steve mentally facepalmed. This was just not his night. But this also proved that his shrink ray took a minute to get going again. If only his phone still had a little juice so he could communicate. Unfortunately it was dead to rights just like his car. He would just have to wait... Unless.
Of course! The portable prototype he had at home! It also had a growth feature and should be fully charged. Damn! If only he had the foresight to bring it with him in case of emergency.
He just hoped Lisa would come to the same conclusion.
