Under High Heels.pdf
It was a typical Saturday afternoon and we were playing in the backyard, my best friend Tony and I being 10-year-old boys enjoying our summer vacation. We were bored and looking for some mischief to get into. Suddenly, we remembered the crazy new invention - the Shrink Ray app on my smartphone. Curious, we decided to test it out.
Tony hit the shrink button and a plasma energy beam engulfed us both. In an instant, we found ourselves miniaturized, reduced to the size of ants! Our normal suburban neighborhood now looked like a city of giants. The grass towered over our heads, a single blade as big as a tree. We were frantically discussing what to do next when we heard the sound of a car pulling into the driveway. My mother was home from her workday.
"Oh no, quick! Hide!" I whispered urgently, knowing Mom would flip if she saw us like this. We scurried behind a fallen leaf as her high heels clicked along the pavement. I peeked out to see her, towering hundreds of feet above, a titan of femininity.
"Whoa," breathed Tony in awe, "Your mom is a total babe!"
Indeed she was, her curvaceous figure accentuated by the tight business suit clinging to her voluptuous frame. But more striking than her beauty was her footwear - a pair of platform stiletto heels made entirely out of polished hardwood. They were easily the size of convenience stores and looked like they could crush a car underfoot.
Mom tottered up the front steps, her heels sinking into the lawn, leaving deep impressions. She fumbled with her keys, having trouble opening the front door with hands that seemed slightly swollen, as if her body was still growing from the Shrink Ray's effects. Finally, she stumbled inside with a huff.
Tony and I crept out from our hiding spot, debating our next move, when I felt the ground tremble beneath me. A colossal foot came down directly above where I was standing! I tried to roll away but it was too late. The wooden sole pressed down, pinning me beneath its inescapable weight.
I tried to scream out for help but it was muffled by the rough wood. My miniaturized body was crushed beneath the immense pressure. In a flash, my bones snapped like twigs and my organs ruptured. A spray of blood gushed out from the edges of Mom's heel as I was reduced to lifeless mush.
Still dazed from her enlargement, Mom staggered into the kitchen, unaware of what she had just done. She kicked off her shoes heavily, sending my flattened corpse flying across the tile floor like a dead roach. Falling bonelessly to the ground, she collapsed into an exhausted slumber, giant breasts rising and falling with each breath.
Tony watched in numb horror, his mind reeling from what had just happened. Tears streaming down his face, he fled the house, leaving me to become Mom's sleeping carpet. As he ran, he heard the Shrink Ray app alert on my phone, my body still clutched in Mom's shoe: "Shrink duration complete. Targets returning to normal size in 5 minutes."
Our summer had just taken a very dark turn...
