Screw up




It's funny how just little the difference is between success and failure. A
professional baseball player can have a great career, but if he has a failure
in The World Series, no offense Bill Buckner, that's what he is remembered
for. On the flip side of that, a guy can be a very average player, but if he
gets a couple of big hits at the right time, he's lauded as being "clutch".
It's not just this way in sports either, it's the same in all facets of life.
Career choices, who you marry, all these events become turning points in
people's lifes. Some people are so talented, or so single-minded that they
suceed in spite of it all. Others are so fucked up to begin with, low I.Q.'s,
a deviant criminal mentality, they don't have a prayer to succeed. It is the
vast majority of everyone else that does not fit into either category, who's
life depends on these critcal moments.

Once the momentum begins to roll in either direction, success or failure is
hard to stop. Some people think that you create your own luck. How does that
take into account the schmuck that buys a lottery ticket once in his life and
hits it big? These are the types of thoughts that Jim Drummond reflected upon
as he stared out the window of the lab. He once had thought of himself as one
of those "immensely talented people" that would succeed without question. Now,
15 years removed from college, and 1 divorce later, he wasn't so sure. There
had been too many "what-ifs" and "almost but not quite" type of events that he
found it difficult to be so sure of himself. Until today

Today would be different. Today was one of those turning points in a person's
life that would change the future for them. Indirectly, the person responsible
for getting him to this point was soon to arrive. Rebecca Wentworth, his
ex-wife was minutes away from the lab. They had met in college at a party. He
majored in science, and she was a Drama major. And she certainly would add
plenty of drama into their lives. They were mutually attracted to one another.
He was taken in by her beauty, and the little bit of bitchiness she possessed
served as a challenge to him. She liked his rugged good looks, and the spark
for her was Jim's ambition to succeed. She wanted to be wealthy, whether it
was by her own doing, or by marrying into money, she did not care. She knew
Jim was going to be rich. He was brilliant and ambitious, two traits that her
parents lacked in spades.

They were married right out of college, and settled in to their lives. She
started doing commercial work and he opened his own lab. He was making minor
breakthroughs in radiation research while her career was going in the tank.
Unfortunately, her bitchiness began to exceed her talent level and she soon
gained an unfavorable reputation around L.A. Money became tight. This caused
her to pressure Jim into selling his lab. A couple of larger companies that
had begun to notice the breakthroughs coming out of Jim's lab. He held a few
patents on radiation treatment that really excited these companies. With a
decent amount of money being thrown around, and the pressure on from Rebecca,
he sold out.

Turning points.

This began his downward spiral. They took the money and bought a big house in
Santa Monica, and hired a well- connected talent agent. He would be the one to
ramp up Rebecca's career. This cost big bucks. Meanwhile, Jim took a job at a
local college working in a research lab, pondering his next big move. One day
he came home to a note from Rebecca that told him that she was moving out and
filing for divorce. Over the course of the next few months life became a blur
to Jim. He watched as Rebecca moved into an apartment that she had no way of
paying for by herself. He couldn't concentrate on work. He couldn't get
through to Rebecca. She just would brush him off and say that she had fallen
out of love with him. He spent too much time in the lab and not enough time
with her. Soon, his house was sold, and he was fired from the university.
Before the ink was dry on the divorce papers Rebecca was moving in with her
"agent", Rich Wentworth, a man twenty years older than she was. Jim bought a
small house in L.A. and recovered from having the rug pulled out from under
him.

Different opportunities arose throughout the years but 5 years ago, he got a
call from his old lab. It was continuing his old reasearch on the removal of
radiation from victims of different kinds of accidents. This intrigued JIm and
he took the job. The ultimate goal of the project was to cure a single
individual of a remarkable accident: Dr. Bruce Banner.

Jim watched through the window as Rebecca pulled up in her new BMW. She got
out and looked around. Jim had not seen her in a few years but he thought that
she was still as attractive as ever. She was wearing one of her usual designer
suits that probably cost a couple thousand dollars. Her slim, petite figure
was just like he remembered. In the ten years since there divorce she still
did not have any children. She was too selfish for kids. Her husband had a
daughter from a previous marriage that was only a few years younger than she
was. She took off her sunglasses. She had her usual annoyed look on her face.
Everything seemingly annoyed her. She looked through the window and saw Jim
waving her inside. He opened the door for her, "Come in, come in, its 90
degrees out there." She looked at him funny, "Your certainly cheerful!" He was
thrilled that after all of the misery that she had put him through, he was
finally going to shove some of that shit back in her face. As she looked
around the lab she had a bored look on her face,

"I can't believe I'm standing in this lab again. It's still as disgusting as
ever." Jim smiled, "Well, this lab kick-started everything off for us way back
when. We even spent a couple of fun moments in here. Do you remember when we
did it on the table back there.." Rebecca was getting impatient, "I hope you
didn't bring me back to this dump to reminisce about the old times. Your not
hoping for a replay of that you disgusting.."

Jim laughed, "Rebecca, relax, relax, its nothing like that. I see your still
as high-strung as ever. I told you on the phone that I had an invention and I
needed your help."

"Jim, I hope you're not going to waste my time with one of your useless
inventions that don't even work." She began to laugh, it was an irritating
laugh to Jim. "I'll never forget that stupid gizmo that was supposed to clean
up radioactive waste instantly, and all it did was make the air smell like dog
shit."

Jim smiled at her smugness, he could barely conceal his hidden agenda for
having her here. "No, no, it's nothing like that. This will make us incredibly
wealthy.."

"I am incredibly wealthy already" she interrupted him.

"Well, it will also make us incredibly powerful," he replied, as he didn't
want to let on too much. "But before I show you my demonstration, let's have a
toast," he handed her a glass of champagne.

Rebecca looked at Jim with a puzzled expression, he sure was acting weird she
thought, but Jim always was a weird guy. Even when the were in college
together he was somewhat strange, and when they got married he was even more
bizarre. Bizarre but harmless, "Oh let's just get on with it. You'd better not
be wasting my time here."

She took the glass from him and gave him one of her fake smiles, "Show me what
you've got Jimmy" He watched her as she drank a healthy portion of the
champagne. Soon...soon it would be showtime. He put his glass down and took
hers and placed it down as well. "Rebecca my dear, what would you say if I
told you that I was part of a special group that for the past 18 months has
been working on a unique device that would be able to siphon off all of the
Hulk's powers?"

She didn't seem too impressed, "I'd say big whoop, how does that make you or
me wealthy, or more powerful?" She began to feel lightheaded. "Are you too
cheap to put on the air-conditioning...it's really hot in here."

She felt herself blacking out. Jim caught her as she started to fall.
Everything was going according to plan. He placed her on a chair and pulled
out the rope that he had gotten. He pulled her arms behind her back and tied
them together. She would wake up quickly, since the drug was very mild that he
had put in her drink. He sat down next to her and stared at her face. She was
a beautiful woman. He would always be attracted to her, it was too bad that
she has such a scheming bitch. She began to stir. His moment of triumph was
almost near.

"W-what happened to me?" Rebecca said weakly. Jim cleared his throat. "Well,
you are about to find out the real reason that I asked you to come here."
Rebecca was completely woken up at this point and she realized that she was
tied up. "Jim, what the fuck are you doing, and why am I tied up?"

"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you. I just wanted you to be here, when I
became the most powerful man on earth!"

Rebecca was confused. She remembered Jim mentioning something about draining
the Hulk's powers before she passed out. She was getting a weird feeling about
this whole thing.

"What the the hell are you talking about. You were stammering something before
about the Hulk's powers"

Jim smiled, "Yes, well you see, I was part of a group that designed a machine
that siphoned off the gamma radiation from Bruce Banner. It was designed as a
one-way device. The energy goes in, but it doesn't come out. Little did my
colleagues suspect that simultaneously, I was making a device that would take
that radiation and re- direct it out in an amplified laser beam." Jim waited
to let this sink in. He saw Rebecca's face change as she realized the whole
ramifications of what he just told her.

"So let me get this straight. You are going to take the Hulk's powers for
yourself, and then what? You're going to kill me for divorcing you?"

Jim laughed, "No no no, I'm not going to hurt you. I just wanted you to be
here to witness this. Me, your "loser" ex-husband, the guy you divorced so you
could marry a rich guy twice your age, is going to become the most powerful
person on earth. I just wanted you here to rub your face in it."

Rebecca had to hand it to Jim. This was the most ambitious thing that he had
ever attempted, not that she would admit it to him. "Somehow, you'll blow it.
You always do."

Jim ignored her taunts. She was going to eat those words in a few moments.
"Charming, as always. Let me give you some random statistics about the power
that I am about to receive. We calculated these just to put in perspective how
much raw power the hulk actually possessed. First his height: 7'1". Weight:
1002 pounds." Rebecca couldn't believe someone was actually that big. Jim
continued on, "He was able to lift 100 tons, and that was when he was calm.
When he grew angry, his strength grew exponentially with his rage. He could
jump 3 miles at a clip. Imagine that, he was able to not only jump over
mountains, he could actually lift them as well. He was easily the strongest
individual on earth. Stronger than Thor, stronger than The Thing, stronger
than anyone you can think of. And now, I will be. In fact even stronger than
the Hulk ever was. As I said earlier, my laser will actually amplify the
effects of this radiation. I will be an even stronger hulk than the Hulk!"

Rebecca had slowly come to realize that this would happen. Jim would get the
Hulk's powers, and he would have the last laugh. "Well, I hope your dick falls
off from radiation poisoning. That would be fitting for you Jim," she laughed
as she said it.

Jim looked over at his ex-wife and laughed, "I'm just so fucking happy that I
have you here to witness this! Just think, you left me because you thought
that I was a loser. Well guess what, in moments, I will be the most powerful
person on this whole fucking planet!"

Rebecca was scared. She didn't know how this dweeb pulled it off, but he was
going to have the Hulks' powers. And lord knows what he would do with them, or
to her, once he had them.

She wouldn't have to wait long to find out. Jim walked over to her and placed
his hand on her cheek, "Rebecca, you always were so beautiful, but
unfortunately, you were always such a bitch."

He felt relieved, triumphant even at how the day was unfolding. "It's perfect
symmetry having you here. This lab was going to be the building block for our
lives together. You wanted me to sell it before the real big payoff could come
and because of that we never had all the money we would have had in just a few
years. But then, it might not have mattered anyway. If I was making 2 million
a year, you might have left me for someone earning three..."

She began to sob, as she realized things were about to get ugly.

"No, no, don't cry. I'm not going to hurt you," Jim tried to reassure her,
"Even though you used me, and were a total fucking bitch to me, I'm not going
to hurt you."

"Then why do you want me here? To see you become "the most powerful person on
the face of the earth?", You'll still be just Jim to me. A pathetic worm of a
man who just got lucky!"

Jim was adjusting the laser as she said this, and in anger he drew his arm
back to smack her, inadvertantly moving it. He stopped himself, "I want so bad
to beat the shit out of you, but I have something else in mind. I know what
will shut you up. Once I've changed, I'm going to shove my gamma-grown dick in
your mouth and make you gag on it." He started laughing hysterically, "And if
you try and bite it, who gives a shit, you'll probably chip your tooth!"

Jim held the remote activator in his hand, and stepped into position. His
moment of triumph was finally here.

"Well, good-bye to the old JIm, and hello to...Hulk-Jim!"

Rebecca closed her eyes, she didn't want to watch. Jim pressed the button and
watched the gamma-rays flow not into him, but Rebecca. "What the fuck is going
on!" he thought as he watched the beam absorb directly into his ex- wife's
body. How the hell could this have happened. He ran over to the machine and
saw that the firing-mechanism had been slightly moved. In his excitement he
must have bumped into it.

"God-dammit," he cursed as he quickly thought about what to do. He would have
to hook Rebecca up to the device and siphon out the gamma-rays just like with
Dr. Banner.

Rebecca opened her eyes. She felt wierd. All that radiation in the room must
have been the reason, she thought to herself. She expected to see Jim all big
and green by now, but instead, he was working feverishly on the machine.

"What's wrong Jim-dear, was there a problem? Are you not going to become the
big bad Hulk-Jim?"

Jim tried to ignore her, he didn't want her to have any idea that all of the
energy was inside of her.

"Ohhh...there must have been some kind of screw-up, or you would have changed
by now. How typical, Jim screwing something up", she laughed as she realized
her ex-husband was up to his old useless tricks.

"There was just a slight malfunction, I'll have it worked out in a second,"
Jim replied nervously. He didn't know how long he could hide his anger, his
frustration, especially with Rebecca taunting him.

"What malfunctioned? I heard the machine fire the beam, I even felt all tingly
when the beam came out. Did it not work? Or...did it....", she began to laugh,
"Don't tell me the beam missed you and all of that Hulk power just evaporated
into thin air....because that would be too stupid, even for you!"

Jim nervously looked over the computer's readings. It confirmed his worst
fear, all of the gamma energy was definitely inside Rebecca. The trick would
be to get her hooked up and take it out before she could figure it out.

Meanwhile, Rebecca was overjoyed at Jim's misfortune. She really thought that
Jim was finally about to do something right. But apparently, he had fucked up
again. She couldn't help herself. She could not resist digging the knife
deeper and deeper into him. All of that power, it had evaporated into thin
air!

"I don't know why you keep messing with that machine, it's gone. All of that
crap that you were talking about is not going to happen," she teased him. "Jim
is a screw-up, Jim is a screw-up," she sang out. She could see his face
getting red, she had seen this look many times before.. It was always after
Jim fucked something up.

"Just think, you had it. You had the ultimate power right at your fingertips,
and just like that, poof! It's gone. How does it feel? I would feel aweful if
I were you. Like the biggest loser."

"Enough!" He screamed out, as he spun towards her with a menacing look. This
kind of look was something she had never seen before. It scared her. It was
the look of a person who was about to lose it.

"I've had it up to here with you," he said as he walked towards her. He was so
angry his face was twitching. He stopped in his tracks as he thought about
what to do. He had to hook her up right now, there was no way he could
withstand her verbal assault without hauling off and smacking her. And that
would be the trigger to her trans- formation. He had to come up with
something. And fast.

"I-I'm going to have to hook you up to another machine," he stammered out.
"I'm worried that you might have gotten a lethal dose of residual radiation."
He hoped that she would buy it.

Rebecca was one sharp woman. However, she wasn't sure if Jim wasn't telling
her the truth.

"I don't want you to die. Because without the power of the Hulk, I would find
it pretty tough to break out of jail. We'd better do this quick."

Rebecca could read a person's body language as good as anybody. And right now
Jim's was telling her that something was wrong. "If the beam missed you, how
come your not worried about this residual radiation killing you?" she asked.
She was a smart bitch, Jim thought. Always has been. Time was running out.
Soon she would know. And then it would be too late.

"Uhhh...that's a good question. When I was reading the information off the
computer it said that your radiation levels were high. Mine were clean." This
was going poorly. "Rebeca, this is deadly stuff. Most things are killed with
just a trace of gamma radiation. And with the effects of the radiation being
amplified by the laser..."

Rebecca was sure that something was up, "Yes, but the beam fired off into thin
air. How could I have been the only one...." She beagan to laugh. "Unless the
beam didn't fire off into thin air," Jim could feel his stomach drop. It was
the kind off feeling you get when you go on a roller-coaster ride, except this
ride was about to end in a disaster.

"That's why my body felt all tingly, THE FUCKING BEAM HIT ME!" She began to
get light-headed at the possibility of it. "Am I right? I'll bet I am. That's
why you didn't change. And that's why you want to hook me up to the machine
that took away the Hulk's powers. It's because the Hulk's powers, and
amplified powers at that, are sitting inside of me!"

Jim was frozen in his tracks. His first impulse was to run. That wouldn't do
any good. She would be able to catch him no matter where he ran to. He
couldn't believe that his moment of triumph was turning into the worst moment
of his life. It would have been better off if the beam had fired off into thin
air. Anything but this, anyone else but Rebecca.

Rebecca shifted in her chair. Her arms were tied tightly to the back of it,
but in seconds that wouldn't matter. An electric feeling shot through her body
as it began its initial change. She could feel it beginning. "It's starting
Jim, watch..." The gamma energy surged through her body as it triggered a
massive explosion of cellular growth. The muscle fibers in her body began to
expand rapidly, her bones began to lengthen, and her strength began to grow.
She looked at her thighs as they began to stretch her designer pants. The
muscles underneath began bulging. She could feel her ass growing over the
chair as well, getting harder and harder with each passing second. Her arms
burned as they grew against the rope that was tying her up. Jim could only
watch helplessly as he watched his ex-wife, the person who he hated the most
in the world, grow into the most powerful being on the planet.

Rebecca looked over at her ex, and couldn't help but feel total delight in
this surprising turn of events. It was bad enough for him that he wasn't
getting this power, but the fact that she did, had to be too much for him to
bear. And she loved the delicious irony of that. "I'm sorry Jim, I'm not doing
a very good job of describing this to you am I?" She loved to tease him any
chance she got. "Well, as you can see I'm actually about to break out of these
worthless ropes that you tied me up with." and with that the ropes snapped. "I
feel like I'm getting really heavy too," and with that the chair gave way. She
landed on the ground with a thud. Her solid ass didn't even feel anything
hitting the floor. She stood up, admiring her growing body. It was already
taking on a shade of green. She looked over at Jim and realized that she was
already taller than him. "Is something wrong with you Jim? Are you shrinking?
No that's right, I'm growing. Right in front of your eyes."

Her muscles kept exploding forth tearing through her clothes as she got bigger
and bigger. Jim barely came up to her enormous breasts. She felt incredible,
invincible. Any adjective to describe possessing the ultimate in power wasn't
enough. She flexed her massive biceps, "Look Jim, these were almost yours!"
she taunted him. Her skin had become totally green, and her clothes were
barely on her anymore. But she still wasn't done growing. She had reached 7
feet tall, the height of the Incredible Hulk, but with the gamma rays effects
amplified by Jim's laser, she still had more growth in her.

She looked down to see Jim, and couldn't. She had grown so tall, and her
breasts had gotten so big, she literally dwarfed him. "Jim, where are you.
Step away from under my tits. I want to see the look on your face."

He was puny. Well, everything was puny compared to her at this point. She
couldn't believe just how large she had become. "What was that you were saying
before Jim? You were somehow amplifying the Hulk's powers with this laser of
yours?" She flexed her bicep, it literally was twice the size of Jim's head.
"Well, what do you think, are these amplified enough for ya?"

Jim could only look up at his once petite ex-wife and cringe. SHE was the one
with the largest muscles he had ever seen. SHE had become the strongest person
on the planet. SHE was also oddly attractive to him right now. He could feel
his dick growing harder than it ever had before.

Rebecca noticed Jim's arousal and began to laugh. "What are you going to do
with that tiny thing? With the size I am now, I wouldn't even feel you inside
me!" She remembered what he had said to her before she had transformed.
"Aren't you going to shove it in my mouth to shut me up? I'd like to see you
try that now." She began to walk over towards Jim. She felt the last bit of
clothing tear away from her immense body as she moved. "This suit cost over
two thousand dollars, but it was worth the sacrifice. Don't you agree?" She
noticed that with every step she took towards Jim, he scrambled to back up
away from her. She liked that. She also liked the feeling she felt when her
foot hit the floor, like it was crunching things beneath her feet.

Jim had backed up into the wall and could only stare up at the mountain of
muscle Rebecca had become. She must have been over 8 feet tall, Jim estimated.
She had grown at least a foot larger than the Hulk was. Her muscles had also
grown impossibly large, much, much bigger than what the Hulk's were. He could
only shake his head when he saw Rebecca's face on top of this amazing body.

"You have nowhere left to go Jim. Don't worry though. I'm not going to hurt
you. No, no, no. Everyday that goes by, you will have to live with the fact
that you blew it."

She picked up a chair that was next to her, it had a metal frame. "I want to
see just how strong I've become." She squeezed the chair together and
compressed it to a ball-shape with hardly any effort at all.

"Hah, that was way too easy. But like you were saying before when you thought
that you would be getting these powers, these muscles will be able to not only
move mountains, but leap over them. After feeling how easy it was to crush
that chair, I believe you."

Jim was distraught. He just couldn't believe that he had fucked up like this.
She was the worst person in the world that could have recieved these powers.
She was selfish, self-centerd, self-absorbed, and that was before she had
become the most powerful person on the planet. Now, who knew how bad she would
become.

She was flexing all of the different muscles on her body. It would take some
time to get used to being this big, and being green, but she was really
enjoying it. She flexed one of her enormous thighs, "You said something before
about the Hulk being able to jump three miles right? With thigh muscles like
these, I believe it."

She extended her thickly muscled arm down towards Jim and grabbed him with her
pointer finger. Slowly she curled him up towards her face, giving him a
close-up view of her amazing musculature. He felt like he weighed nothing to
her, literally nothing, like there was no weight at all.

"You know, I always thought that having a lot of money meant power, but I was
wrong. This", she flexed her other arm, "This is power!" She moved him towards
her flexed arm to compare Jim's head with her bicep. "I don't believe it", she
said giggling, "My fucking bicep is twice the size of your head! Look at it
Jim! Its amazing!"

Jim's face was inches away from the largest muscle in the world. Her arm was
in his entire filed of vision, nothing but a humongous green bicep. Suddenly
he felt himself falling down, only to land on top of one of her thighs. His
ass hurt from landing on what felt like stone. He tried to wrap his legs
around her thighs to keep from falling down, but he couldn't get his legs all
the way around her thigh.

"Look at that Jim, you're riding my thighs! Be careful sometimes these thighs
can get a little rough!" She flexed her leg and the force of that threw Jim up
into the air. She laughed at how easy it was. A simple flex of her leg threw a
grown man 10 feet up in the air. Jim landed onto the ground with a thud. He
shook his head as he felt a little groggy. He looked up and saw Rebecca
flexing her new body. The back of her calves were right in front of his face.
Like the rest of her body, he couldn't believe the thckness of her muscles. He
reached over to touch them, he couldn't even help himself. Her calf felt like
stone, but at the same time there was a soft ness about her skin. It was an
unbelievable feeling.

"Are you enjoying my new body as much as I am? I don't think that's possible.
Well, I hate to grow and run, but I'm going home. My husband and I are going
to have a little talk about this wonderful change in our lives"

She walked over to the machine, "I have one more thing to do before I leave,"
she reached over to the machine and sank her hands into it. Her hands tore
into it like it was made of tissue paper. "This is to ensure that I will never
have to give up this amazing power. I'm looking forward to having to get an
all new wardrobe."

She reached down to Jim and placed her hands on the sides of his face, and
lifted him up to her lips. "This is my good-bye and thank-you kiss" She kissed
him so hard it sucked the air out from his body. She let him slowly slide down
her body as he felt himself glide over her immense breasts, his face slipping
in between her enormous cleavage, and then falling out from them onto the
ground. He quickly stood up as she turned to go, and he got a good look at her
awesome glute and leg bicep muscles as she crouched down and then exploded up
into the air, crashing through the ceiling of the lab.

He looked through the whole in the ceiling, it was large as you might expect,
and he shook his head. Somehow, he knew this was not the last chapter in his
book with Rebecca.
