Looking for help in all the wrong places Family's New Shrink Ray chapter 15 by copier · original author: pats2015

Ben and Dana stepped outside their house ready for a fun Halloween evening. Him dressed as a doctor and her as a female police officer. Quite a difference from the normal office dwelling career paths they both had chosen. But hey, they figured Halloween was the one night of the year you could dress up and pretend to be something you're not. As the couple readied themselves for a night full of partying and adult beverages they felt the earth rumble beneath their feet. The tremors they had experienced when getting into their costumes inside were back but it seemed they were getting stronger. Dana looked out into the sky first before grabbing her boyfriend's hand and directing him to the source of the noises.

Making her way down the street was a skyscraper sized woman. The older latina was probably late fifties her long black hair having noticeable streaks of grey and her face showing some signs of wrinkling. Her shapely body moved with immediate urgency dressed in a pink bathrobe. A giant pink slippered foot twice as long as any of the cars parked on the street settled in the middle of the street followed by its twin. Ben and Dana couldn't believe what they were seeing. This enormous woman was most definitely real and she was looking right at them.

After Mrs. Garcia tucked her neighbor's cat into her pocket she decided she should try and find someone to help her. Looking out of her neighborhood cul-de-sac towards the street she figured one of her neighbors would show her some kindness and help her. As Lupe scanned the streets she noticed up ahead what looked like a man in white coat and scrubs standing next to a woman in a navy blue uniform. What luck she thought. She had found a doctor and a police woman. What better two people to run into. She was sure they could help her and maybe find a way to return her to normal size.

The frightened couple felt the gaze of the giant's brown eyes fall on them and immediately ran to get back inside. One giant step crashed down followed by another at their back. The vibrations were so chaotic that they caused Ben to drop his keys as he went to unlock the door. Before he could bend down to pick them up him and Dana were collected in the grasp of the giant woman and brought in front of her huge face.

"Please you have to help me! I don't know how I got so big. I was sitting in my recliner and when I went to answer the door ai started to grow. I'm scared and don't know what to do."

For Ben and Dana the giant's voice was deafening. The two covered their ears doing anything they could to prevent their ear drums from bursting as they sat in Lupe's giant palm. It was clear the woman was panicked not stopping to breath before rambling off her next sentence. Pelting the couple with spittle as she spoke.

"Well? Don't just sit there staring. I need help! And it's your jobs to help people in need. No matter what size they are."

This time her tone was less desperate and more demanding. Wait, what did she mean by it was their jobs? Then it clicked for Ben. Their costumes. This enormous woman thought he and Dana were really a doctor and cop.

"Enough. If you're not going to help me guess I'll just have to help myself. Come here!"

The giant reached down her other hand and grasped Dana in her fingers pinning her ribs between her thumb and pointer finger.

"Officer can you call for back up? Or at least have them clear the streets so I can try to find help without stepping on anyone?"

Even if Dana wanted to respond the crushing pressure of Mrs. Garcia's fingers had already broken several ribs and made speaking nearly impossible. When Dana started to fall unconscious due to lack of oxygen and her head slumped forward Lupe got mad. Thinking the woman had fainted Lupe used her thumbnail and flicked her head hard upwards. The forced of the thumbnail easily broke Dana's neck killing her instantly. When Lupe saw the tiny stream of blood trickling from Dana's open mouth and her head hanging off her shoulder at an irregular angle knew what she had done.

"Oh my god! I'm so sorry. It was an accident I swear." Mrs. Garcia looked back down at Ben in her palm for reassurance but only watched as he jumped up and down screaming at her.

"But see this is why I need to get back to normal size. You people are way too small and fragile for me at this size."

Lupe flicked Dana's dead body into one of the neighbor's yards down below eliciting another wave of screams from the man in her palm. She then looked back towards him.

"Please doctor you have to figure out how I got so big. Hmmm. Maybe it was something I ate."

Ben's fit of rage was halted when he felt himself being brought closer to the giant maw. He was hit with a hot wave of her breath before he felt the surface of the palm tilt and he fell face first onto her tongue.

Lupe didn't see anything wrong with what she was doing. Her regular doctor had been interrogating her about diet lately because of her inclination to indulge in sugary treats. Of course throughout the evening some Halloween candy had found it's way into her stomach. What if one of those pieces of candy was the reason for massive growth. She had always heard the stories of poisoned candy so she figured it wasn't beyond reason. In her head their was only one way to find out.

"I'm sorry about this. Please see what you can find."

With that Lupe pushed the tiny man in her mouth to the back of her throat before swallowing. The tiny figure struggled down her windpipe before she felt him land in her belly. Mrs. Garcia only hoped that her slow metabolism would give him enough time to find a cause of her growth before he succumbed to her stomach acid. But there was nothing she could do about that. In the mean time Mrs. Garcia...
