#6 of The Application


Baxter had me held up by the scruff of my shirt, his sneering visage finally instilling fear as I watched him lick his lips. Hendry was beside him, still massaging his massive penis while Tommy stood in the back, towering over them all and wearing an expression of devilish malice. It seemed as though his cowardly side had been crushed by his hulking new muscles, and as much as I hated to admit it, I was scared now.

"This is going to be fun," Baxter sneered, "Time for some payback Bradley, and this time-"

Shouting from outside the room interrupted him, what sounded like explosions sending tremors through the floor. The trio paused and turned their heads to the door, where the unmistakable sounds of gunfire and people screaming in agony were drifting through the reinforced steel. It seemed to be getting closer, each resounding boom growing louder with every passing second, the tremors increasing in strength until the walls themselves seemed to be shaking. Baxter gestured with his chin, and Tommy broke away from the group.

BLAM!"

Nobody could react in time when the door exploded from its hinges, a hundred or so pounds of iron and steel smashing into Tommy so hard he went flying. Chapel's huge fingers had been crushed into the metal, the horse maintaining his follow-through as he stomped one booted foot into the ground, the door catching Hendry and Baxter off guard and sending them crashing through the opposing wall.

Tommy, who was still in the room, recovered quickly, unleashing a war cry on his own as he lunged at the stronger, huger Chapel. It was then did I realize the explosions I heard had simply been Chapel's huge, meaty knuckles making contact with unfortunate faces. Tommy was caught mid-flight and knocked out instantly, his unconscious body demolishing several walls as Chapel sent him flying through the building. Somehow, I knew Tommy was going to get up and walk away unscathed, he always did.

Still, that didn't mean I had forgiven Chapel yet, though when he realized that fact his expression nearly broke my heart. Nearly.

"We have to get out of here," Chapel said, his voice shaking slightly, "Now."

"I didn't think there was a 'we'," I said coldly, bending around him as I made for the door, "Let me show myself out."

"Bradley..." Chapel began, his voice softer than I had ever heard it, "Please..."

"Just get out of my way, Chapel!" I snapped, a little louder than I intended.

He was silent for a moment, but I could tell he wasn't going to move.

"I said I would never hurt you, Bradley."

"I don't give a flying fuck about that anymore," I cried, "Giovanni has more power than shit and there's nothing I can do about it now!"

I turned away from Chapel, intending to use one of the extra exits the horse had created when his massive hand reached down to grab me. Despite the insane power surging within those fingers, Chapel's touch was almost... soothing... when he encircled my comparatively tiny arm. Unable to resist his strength, I flailed when he dragged me back to him, falling onto his knees so we could be closer to eye level.

"You don't understand Bradley," Chapel whispered, "I'm here to get you out, whether you want me to or not."

"Oh?" I quipped, glaring at him and that sombre expression, "Are you going to force me out?"

"I'll carry you if I have to."

A high pitched whistle shrieked through the air just then, and before I knew what I was going on Chapel had grabbed me, his humongous muscles covering me on all sides when a missile flew into the interrogation room. The explosion was deafening, even with Chapel's huge paws covering my ears. Somehow though, the rest of the blast didn't even touch me, and when Chapel released me his face had taken on a wild, almost savage countenance.

"Wait here," he commanded in a voice that demanded I obey, and despite the best of my efforts I found myself unable to move from my spot, my knees buckling as Chapel stepped away to deal with the frantic henchman and his now empty rocket launcher. Clutching my head as Chapel began beating the man into submission, I struggled again with my conscience, knowing deep down that I not truly been fair with him, especially since I had not yet heard his side of the story.

And then Chapel returned, scooping me off the ground and running off without another word, kicking down entire walls and sending growing henchmen flying like Frisbees. That the horse had not asked if I wanted to go actually... hurt... a little, and whenever I looked up his face remained stoic and expressionless as ever. All around us I could hear the growls and moans of Giovanni's henchmen, every single one of them ripping their clothes to bits as their muscles bulged to gargantuan proportions. None of them seemed strong enough to obstruct the adrenaline-charged Chapel as he carried me along, most of them too distracted by their growth and thus helpless to defend against Chapel's armoured boots.

Bullets were bouncing off Chapel's broad back by the time we tumbled into an elevator, the massive horse shielding me from harm until the doors finally shut. He released me then, resting on his knees as I rolled away from him and stood. It pained me to see him like this now, for someone so big and so strong to be so emotionally distressed... I could only maintain my facade for so long.

"Alright then..." I began, regulating my breathing so as to remain calm, "Let's hear you out, why did you betray me?"

Chapel looked at me for a moment, tears welling up in his eyes when he realized I was willing to listen, but when he spoke, his voice remained firm and resonant.

"I... I had no choice... It was already too late when the recording reached my phone," Chapel paused for a moment and inhaled deeply, "I came to your school only because they were already stalking you, I took you home intending for you to pack your things... I... I meant to flee the state with you so I could keep you safe."

"But they were already in my house, did you know that?"

"N-No," Chapel said honestly, his ears drooping with his admittance, "I saw the first one when I went into your bedroom to get a... drink, the others showed their faces as I was dangling him from your window. They had guns Bradley... if I so much as I raised my hand they would have shot you and taken your phone anyway."

"But you shielded me from all those bullets just now," I said, my voice trembling with the revelations, "You even took a bazooka without batting an eye! You could have done the same back in the apartment could you not?"

"I didn't know I was bulletproof back then," Chapel said softly, his head dipped down so he could avert my gaze, "I only shielded you just now because I'd rather be shot myself than see you in pain. I did nothing at your apartment because I knew they were willing to kill me to get to you, if I had known I could protect you there then none of this would even be happening."

"Bradley...I... I'm sorry," Chapel whispered, choking with emotion as tears rolled down the sides of his face, "I'm so sorry, I didn't know I could do it, I just wanted to keep you alive, to keep you safe! I didn't mean for any of this, you gave me my life back! I owe you everything, my heart, my soul!"

"Please... Bradley... let me get you out of here!" Chapel breathed, his face was raw with emotion when he turned to look at me, "Giovanni plans to attack the city so he can draw forces away from the army base at the end of the river, and it's only a matter of time before escape becomes impossible!"

"Let me do this Bradley," pleaded Chapel, "Just trust me this once, I can get you to the edge of the highway via jet ski before the blockades come down... and then... and then I will leave... before Giovanni catches up to us... before he finds you."

I had heard enough, my emotional upheaval overpowering my common sense as I crept over to where Chapel knelt and slowly wrapped my arms around him. My eyes were wet with tears as I pressed my face against his neck and let myself be overcome with shame. Chapel's huge body shook violently when he realized what I had done, his huger arms swallowing my tiny body as he curled into a rough ball on the floor.

"I... I'm the one who should be sorry," I choked, trying in vain to keep myself from sobbing, "All this time I thought you an ungrateful... person... I... I'm sorry Chapel... so... so very sorry."

We spent the rest of the journey down in each other's arms, the warmth of Chapel's body comforting me in this time of hardship. It wasn't till we hit the lowest floor did the lift doors finally open, Chapel simply got up and slammed his foot into the seven foot, muscle-bound henchman who tried walking into the lift, the startled wolf bouncing several times across the underground lake before splashing into the depths.

Chapel put me down, allowing me to admire the vastness of Giovanni's secret hideout. It looked like some sort of cavern deep within the mountains. The water flowing here must have led to the River Brandon, everywhere I looked there were sparkling waterfalls and strange looking machinery lining the edges of the lake.

"Oh... shit," Chapel cursed, "The barges are gone! Giovanni is already moving!"

"Wait... barges? He's going to attack the city with barges?"

"They're overflowing with growing henchmen, if you could make me impervious to bullets then Giovanni's probably done that to his minions, I have to get you out now, this way!"

Chapel picked me up and raced across the cavern, kicking the henchman from earlier back into the lake just as the wolf dragged himself to the shoreline. There was a large, sky-blue jet ski waiting by one of the larger support beams, Chapel wasted no time before hopping on and plopping me into the space behind him. I was instantly reminded on the time I rode pillion behind Chapel when he picked me up from school.

"Why can't we leave by motorcycle?" I asked innocently.

"Too many henchmen upstairs," Chapel answered, "This is the fastest and safest way out, alright let's go."

There was a mighty roar as the jet ski surged to life, a great wave of water trailing us as Chapel cut a swath through the lake and raced towards one of the mountain walls. I was ready to start yelling; hoping with all my heart Chapel wasn't going to drive this thing through several hundred feet of rock and stone when I heard the heavy machines rumbling throughout the cavern. Unbelievably, a spear of light sliced its way into view, the very walls of the mountain grinding against each other as they parted before my very eyes. Chapel sped through the opening, the afternoon sun blinding me for a moment as we crashed into the River Brandon.

"Chapel," I cried, refusing to let go of the horse's waist despite the water splashing against us, "Come with me!"

"I can't," Chapel yelled, "Giovanni has full control over my body, one button and I could lose my ability to walk, I would be a burden to you!"

"You'll never be a burden to me," I yelled back, hanging on for dear life as we bounced over the waves, "Please don't leave me again Chapel, please!"

"I... I can't do that Bradley!" Chapel roared over the noise, "I have to stop him! This whole thing is my fault! If I don't fix this now there might never be a safe place for you ever again!"

"Then let me come with you!"

"Have you gone mad?!"

"...maybe!"

"This is a horrible idea, Bradley!"

"I don't care, I'm not leaving you!"

Chapel did not reply to my last statement, but when I felt his hairy muscles clenching with determination I knew he had decided to honour my request. This mess was in part my fault too either way, I guess I would be a total dick if I just ran away from it all, and besides I had Chapel to protect me now didn't I? He was practically indestructible!

The barges came into view within moments of Chapel spinning the jet ski around, more than three dozen of them floating down the River Brandon and bursting with activity. As we neared, I could make out the hordes of bare-chested, muscle-flexing henchmen crowding around every inch of each barge. They were all impossibly muscular, some of whom were still growing as they sprayed ropes of thick cum into the churning waters below. Numerous crafts were breaking off from the sides of the barges, miniature speedboats packed with nearly-naked henchmen of their own, and in the time it took me to notice them there must have been hundreds of them racing toward the shoreline.

"The attack on the city has already begun!" Chapel roared, just as an explosion rippled through one of the distant buildings, "I see the main barge, let's go!"

Somehow, Chapel managed to come in from one of the blind spots, where no henchman could see us due to them cheering and waving their weapons at the destruction coming from the city. Their louder voices had even drowned out the noise from the ski.

"Alright, this is it."

Chapel stopped right alongside the biggest and longest barge, helping me up with one huge paw as he hefted us both onto the wooden walkway.

"Do you have a plan?" I asked, "Maybe you could distract Giovanni while I snatch my phone back?"

"I... actually didn't think we would make it this far, my original plan was just to sink this boat and hope that the water shorts out your phone."

I stared at Chapel for a moment, astounded by the effective simplicity of his plan.

"Of course!" I agreed, turning around so I could step back into the ski before it floated away, "Alright you do that, I'd be more than willing to sacrifice my phone if it will limit the damage Giovanni can-"

"HOLD IT THERE RIGHT!"

I turned, just in time to see one of Giovanni's rhino henchmen, a veritable wall of muscle that had to be Chapel's equal in size, bursting out of the side of the barge and slamming into him with the force of a freight train. Chapel had managed to twist to his side, but not before the collision sent them both tripping off the side of the boat and into the churning waters below.

"Chapel!"

"Oh I think you have bigger problems."

I flinched, cursing under my breath as a huge, muscular-looking shadow loomed over me, a massive paw mere inches from my shoulder when I decided to move. Yelling at the top of my lungs, I threw myself forward, bouncing off before the henchman could catch me and racing around the sides of the barge. I was right to suspect he could not move so fast due to being so huge in such a cramp space, perhaps I could find a stairway leading to the second story, there was probably something I could use there, maybe a fire extinguisher or something... anything!

Turning a corner, I made it three more steps before the wooden wall suddenly cracked, splinters flying everywhere as a humongous paw shot out to grab me, it was freaky huge and riddled with so many veins I could actually feel his hands throbbing with power when those sausage-sized fingers wrapped around my arm.

"Ah... fuck!"

The henchman who had been chasing me lumbered into view, his companion tearing away the wall so they could properly admire their new catch. Five minutes later, I was kneeling in the middle of Giovanni's private office, my wrist and ankles bound with a ragged fabric that suspiciously felt like it once belonged to someone's t-shirt. I didn't have to wait for long before Chapel was brought in too, pressed down by three of the brawniest henchmen I had ever seen, and even then they were having a hard time holding him still.

Giovanni, who had been tapping my phone on his desk, let out a soft chuckle. Unlike the monstrous, shirtless hulks surrounding him, the panther still looked the part of an ordinary mob boss - lean but fit and definitely not bulging with unfathomable amounts of muscle.

"Bradley... Bradley... how I wish it had not come to this, you could have been here with me, eight and a half feet tall and a hundred or so pounds more muscled than Chapel here."

"I'd like to pass."

"You already have," Giovanni said, turning his attention to the growling, snarling horse beside me, "And you Chapel, aren't you a little ungrateful today."

Chapel simply scowled at him, his eyes burning with fury as he struggled to throw off his captors.

"And here I was thinking you would have learned your lesson after your last screw up," Giovanni sneered, flipping my phone around before running his fingers across the touchscreen, "Let's try that again shall we?"

My phone let out a barely audible zapping noise, a wave of static sweeping over Chapel and prompting his three guards to unhand him. I could hear him whining softly, his left eye shutting immediately as his struggles were greatly weakened. Muscle began collapsing into his body, his once massive frame deflating like a popped balloon as he was reverted to his original state. My eyes were ready to bleed when I saw Chapel's legs shrinking, reduced in seconds to the useless, atrophied limbs I had seen in his wheelchair. His upper body was still far huger than mine, but compared to the animals surrounding him, he seemed almost weak... helpless.

"You squandered your chance Chapel," Giovanni said simply, the malevolence of his grin tripling when Chapel cried out in anguish, his legs now spindly and useless. He had shrunk so much that when one of Giovanni's henchmen reached down to pull his boots off they came off effortlessly, his pale, dishevelled feet resembling dead fish on dry land. The others forced him onto his side and bounded his wrists before him, not bothering with his legs at all.

"Well now that that's done with, I'm going to offer you once last chance Bradley, join me and become part of my new empire!"

"I'd like to pass again," I said, almost spitting the words out despite my best attempts to sound polite, causing Giovanni to sigh.

"You know Bradley," he continued, "I spent most of my boat ride playing with your phone and I must say I loved every moment of it. You saw the effects of my work did you not? My henchmen are throwing tanks around like beach balls as of this very moment, do you know what this means? My dream is nearing fruition, and once I level the military base at the end of this river the city will be mine at last!"

"Oh and... what's a hulking muscle-army without a leader to lead them hmm?"

My heart practically stopped when Giovanni tapped the screen of my phone, a soft purring slipping from his lips when the barely audible sound of static filled the air, his fur standing on end when he slapped my phone onto the desk. I could see him trembling, gasping for breath as he leaned onto his chair and rolled a few inches back.

"Oh god," he moaned, "I knew it felt good but this... this...aaahhhhhhhh... yes!"

I could see it now. Giovanni's entire body was thickening, not too fast and not too rapidly, his growth unmistakable. The panther's pectorals were swelling within his suit, becoming steadily larger, filling out into muscular slabs that no doubt pushed his nipples into the downward position. His back and shoulders were broadening too, growing wider and heavier with muscle, the growth spreading down his arms and tightening the fabric of his sleeves.

"Getting bigger," Giovanni purred, his palms gliding across the table top as he rolled his head back, "Feels so good."

The sound of ripping fabric filled the air, what appeared to be a massive, tube-like organ pushed its way through the middle of Giovanni's suit and stretched toward the base of his chin. Oh god no, that couldn't be! But even as I looked at it I knew that massive bulge was none other than the panther's cock, the swollen mushroom head was unmistakable, and when that entire thing grew huge and fat enough the head pushed it way out of Giovanni's inner shirt, kissing him in the chin and spewing cum like crazy.

"Now that's what I'm talking about," the panther moaned, "You, come here."

The henchman nearest to him, a monstrous bull who resembled a walking mountain, bounded over eagerly, sweeping Giovanni's desk away like a piece of paper and kneeling before his boss. Giovanni placed his growing arms behind his head and flexed his already muscular crotch, his cock tearing through the front of his suit and smacking against the bull's worshipful features. Oh god he already looked like a championship bodybuilder, the pristine development of his growing muscles was insane! Every fibre was visible, each muscled pumped to perfection! Even his frighteningly massive cock, probably three feet long and nine or ten inches across, seemed to bulge and flex with powerful muscles.

Giovanni was moaning lewdly now, even as his bovine sex slave struggled to stuff that massive organ into his mouth, cum spilling over his face and shoulders as he worshipped the biggest fucking cock on the planet.

"Oh shit!" Giovanni cried suddenly, his eyes widening to the side of dinner plates as he squirmed in his chair, "My back! Ooh fuck!"

Oh fucking hell his growth was accelerating, he was already seven feet tall and still going at it! My mouth dried up the moment I saw his shoulders erupting with writhing sinew, his entire back lengthening by an entire foot and packing on more muscle than should be humanly possible. His lats simply blasted out of his sides, knocking his arms away and causing the tattered remnants of his suit to fall off his growing body. Pectoral muscles swelled to the size of large pillows, jets of cum spraying from his nipples as jet black hairs grew over the surface of his mighty chest. Abdominal muscles that once resembled a chiselled six-pack began morphing before my very eyes, eight freakish bulges the size of cinderblocks bursting out of his gut one muscle at a time.

Sheer mountains trying to pass off as his traps fused into Giovanni's pillar-like neck, his three other henchmen falling upon his hulking cock as the bull finally succumbed to his own orgasm. Giovanni began to laugh, each booming syllable deepening as his voice took on a thunderous, almost reverberating baritone. He had finally gotten off his chair, flexing his swelling muscles as he continued to shoot up in height, his freakish quads were already the size of car tires, his bare feet crushing into the floorboards as claws the size of my face thrust from the tips of his fingers and toes.

"AARRRGGHH!" Giovanni roared, his body exploding with pure power as his growth accelerated again, boulders of pure mass erupting from his already heaving muscles as he grew and expanded in every fucking direction, "ALL MUSCLE! ALL COCK! I FEEL SO FUCKING HARD! YES! YES!"

Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck! Giovanni was just erupting muscle now, shooting past ten feet in height until the tips of his ears were touching the ceiling. I felt incomprehensibly small now, even as I stared up to the twelve foot panther-god. Chapel was fairing no better, the horse gritting his teeth as he watched his former boss blowing his load all over his minions, coating them in cum so thick and so white I didn't think it would ever wash off.

"This... feels... incredible," Giovanni thundered, his eyes flashing dangerously as he turned away from his unconscious minions, "You have given me so much Bradley, such a pity you refused my invitations."

Giovanni brought up a fist the size of a wrecking ball and snapped his fingers, the shockwave slapping me in the face just as his door flew open. Half a dozen henchmen strode in, some of them letting out surprised gasps when they realized just who they now served. Giovanni seemed all too eager to flex his muscles for them, but when his expression suddenly hardened, I couldn't help but whimper.

The panther bent over and picked up my phone with two massive claws, striding over to where we were and indicating that Chapel should kneel. His henchmen obeyed at once, dragging the horse off the ground by the collar of his vest and holding him upright, keeping his useless knees on the ground.

"Such strength," Giovanni growled, "Such power! There can never be anyone as strong as me, there must never be any as strong as I!"

Giovanni began laughing again, his fingers pressing into my phone until a sickening crunching sound filled the air. I could only watch in horror as the panther decimated my phone, crushing it to bits between his fingers. The panther was staring at me now, almost as if he knew destroying my phone would not undo the changes. And, despite me hoping with all my heart that would be the case, nothing happened, Giovanni and his cronies remained as huge and muscular as they had ever been.

"No one can stop me now!" Giovanni boomed, throwing a small cloud of plastic and metal into Chapel's face, causing him to splutter and spit as the pieces landed in his nostrils, "No one shall have the power to grow as I had! I alone shall be the biggest, most muscular being to ever live!"

"And now that your phone is destroyed Bradley," he said, turning to leer at me, "I should do with you two what I should have done ages ago."

Giovanni gestured with one threatening claw, causing his minions to jump to attention.

"Tighten their bindings," Giovanni commanded.

"And then... throw them into the river."
