"Kathy Lee Hulks Out" Kathy Lee Gifford sat in her chair as the final touches of her make-up were being applied. Her mind wandered as it often did at times such as these, quiet, peaceful times. She didn't have many relaxing moments in her day, being on a daily TV show and the mother of two children took up most of her time. What she didn't need were extra distractions, and in the past year she has had too many for anyone to cope with. First, her husband was caught cheating on her and it was strewn across the tabloids, and then, her clothing line was caught up in a wage scandle. All this had been humiliating and it had an effect on her physical well-being. Always thin, she now appeared sickly. She felt helpless, like her world was spiraling out of control and she was a passenger on a doomed flight. Unknown to her, all that was about to change. "So, are you excited about having the Hulk, I mean Dr. Banner on the show today? Hello, Kathy...earth to Kathy, are you still with us?" Kathy always tuned out her make-up assistant, it was early in the morning, and she didn't ever have an interest in what she had to say. "Hello! Jeez, I'm sorry I disturbed you," she said. This time, however, she was interested. She had always wanted to meet the most powerful man in the world. Many a night she would watch the nightly news and see footage of the Hulk in action and she loved seeing his magnificant muscles in action. Today she would see them up close. "I'm sorry Mary, I was just zoning out, but yes I am excited to meet Dr. Banner. He's done a tremendous amount of charity work for children and I greatly admire him." "And the fact that he has the biggest muscles in the world doesn't hurt, right?" Mary chimed in. Kathy Lee pretended to act disinterested, but deep-down that was exactly the cause for her excitement. Someone peeked his head in the dressing room and let her know that the show was beginning in 5 minutes, so Mary hurried up with the finishing touches on Kathy Lee's make-up. Meanwhile in the studio audience, the Leader sat and waited. He had been able to disguise himself with one of his newest inventions, an image-manipulator. With it, he appeared normal as possible. He needed to in order to defeat his arch- nemesis once and for all. Not only would he rob the Hulk of his powers, he would do it while embarrassing him on national TV. Another one of his new inventions would see to that. He had developed a way to immediately remove gamma radiation from the body. The beam was invisible to the naked eye, but it was oh so effective. The Leader would blast Dr. Bruce Banner with it when he came onto the stage. When the good Dr. tried to transform into his monstrous alter-ego, he would be unable to do so because their would be no gamma-rays coursing through his blood-stream. They would be dispersed into the air, and his mortal enemy would be no more! The crowd stood and cheered as Regis and Kathy Lee were introduced. The Leader couldn't help but think that Kathy Lee looked sickly, but that wasn't important. In a few minutes they would be introducing Dr. Banner, who was there to promote his appearance as the Hulk in a charity wrestling match. He only had to wait through the hosts rediculous banter, and revenge would be his. They finished up their monologue and came back from commercial. The room was abuzz waiting for the Hulk to make his appearance. "Our first guest is known all over the world as the most powerful superhero there is, ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm welcome to Dr. Bruce Banner, better known as the incredible Hulk, "Regis shouted out, as he was equally excited to meet the hero. As the crowd leapt to its' collective feet, the leader aimed his weapon at the Dr., and he hit him directly in the chest. As Bruce Banner waved to the adoring crowd, he felt a strange sensation, but he brushed it off as just being a little nervous. Kathy Lee was the first to greet him as she shook his hand and gave him a kiss on the cheek. She felt a strange surge run through her body and envelope her from head to toe. She brushed it off as static electricity, or being a little awestruck. Whatever it was, she couldn't wait to see the Dr. turn into the Hulk. The Leader grew impatient as Banner kept talking about his charity foundation, it seemed like it took forever until he was finally finished. "Alright, and now for what everyone has been waiting for, I'm going to wrestle the Hulk, and I'm going to win," Regis yelled as he egged the crowd on. "Now Kathy, you're our referee, and don't get too excited when I hulk out of my clothing," Regis continued joking. Kathy Lee stood up from her chair and pressed her skirt down. It was one of her favorites, as it really accentuated her figure nicely. She glanced over at the Dr. , "Are you ready there Hulk?" Dr. Banner took a deep breath and nodded his head. He concentrated on growing, but nothing was happening. He cleared his head, and tried again. This time was no different than the first, no transformation. Something was wrong, he seemed to have lost his powers! "C'mon Hulk, its only an hour-long show and we have other guests," Regis ribbed him, trying to break the tension that was growing. Dr. Banner leaned over nervously towards regis and Kathy Lee, "Something seems to be going on with my ability to transform. I-I don't know what to say ..... this has never happened to me before." Kathy Lee felt herself growing more and more disappointed by the minute. She had been waiting a long time to see this up close, and now the hopes of that happening were lessening by the minute. She started to feel a little flush, like her breathing was being restricted. The weird feeling was returning again, the one she felt when she kissed Dr. Banner hello. She felt the side of her head, as there was a pounding in that grew sharper and sharper. Regis and Dr. Banner noticed Kathy was holding her head, and became worried. Banner had an uneasy feeling as he watched her keel over and started moaning. "Kathy...are you alright," Regis whispered to her. She didn't reply back to him, as her breathing became more and more difficult. She looked down at her dress, it appeared as if it had grown tighter on her the last few seconds, and it was growing tighter still! She thought for a moment, naw it couldn't be she told herself. But she looked at her arms, and the sleeves of her shirt were pulling tighter and tighter and a slightly greenish hue started washing over her skin. The Leader was looking on intently from the audience. He had stayed to witness Banner's humiliation, and now he was getting an even better show! It appeared as if the gamma particles had been absorbed by Kathy Lee! He stared in disbelief as her petite frame stretched out and began bulging outward with more and more muscle. This was definitely worth staying around for. Kathy Lee looked out at the crowd as all eyes were staring back at her, and she found herself really enjoying it. Her body was indeed transforming, all the Hulk's muscle and strength was somehow transferred to her, and she loved it! She ran her hands through her thickening hair, as it was growing green as well. Her feet felt squashed up against her heels and she looked down and saw her feet bursting through them. Her calves were growing enormous as well, with green muscle filling out what were once rail-thin lower legs. Her skirt was being stretched to its limit as her thighs bulged out against the fabric and finally shredded it as well. The audience sat in stunned silence at what was taking place. They didn't know if this was some incredible illusion they were watching or if it was real. Kathy Lee copuld feel the enormous power filling up her muscles, and she knew that it was real. She ran her hands against the contours of her immense thighs and smiled as she felt how big they had become. She also noticed how tall she was growing as she was now a full head taller than either Regis or Dr. Banner. In fact, both of them only came up to her massive breasts as they two were getting bigger and bigger with each passing second. Finally, her blouse could no longer contain the staggering growth of her breasts, and mounds of green flesh poured out of the front of her shirt. The producers cut away to a commercial at this point, and they started rounding up the audience to leave. Kathy Lee saw this and grew angry, she wanted everyone there to watch her grow bigger and stronger. "No one leaves!" she shouted, her voice a little deeper, and more powerful than it had been before. Her transformation was coming to an end and she stood in the center of the stage basking in all of the attention. She was now much, much taller than the two men on stage, "How do your muscles look on me Dr. Banner?" she asked, already knowing the answer to the question. "I think they look fantastic, and they feel incredible. I can imagine what it feels like to use them. Having the strength to lift mountains, to be able to be shot by tanks and not even get scratched, all that power is now mine!" She ripped of the rest of her remaining clothing and flexed her biceps. She wanted to see these muscles up close, but she never dreamed that they would be hers. Wait until she got home and Frank saw her. She quickly walked offstage and left regis and Dr. Banner staring there, not knowing what to do or what to say. She walked to her dressing room and saw that she was too large to fit through the doorway. "Have my car brought around immediately, " she yelled out to no one in particular. She was going home to pay Frank a visit. She thought about what she would do to him and a smile crept across her face. Frank was out driving around, he didn't have much to do when the kids were in school. Since he was dropped from monday night football he had a lot of time on his hands. As he pulled up the driveway, he saw that Kathy's car was back. That was odd, he thought, she usually isn't back so early. He parked the car and walked through the front door calling out for the maid. No one replied, which was strange as well. Suddenly, Kathy called out to him from upstairs, "I'm up here Frank." He walked up the stairs with a little excitement, maybe she was here to surprise him he thought. He walked into the bedroom and Kathy was standing in the middle of it in a nightgown, looking beautiful. "Kathy, you look wonderful," he exclaimed as he pulled his shirt from out of his pants anticipating a roll in the hay with his wife. Kathy Lee extended out her hand, holding him back, "Not so fast Frankie-boy." She circled around him, as she looked at him seductively. "Do you remember who was supposed to be on the show today?" Frank thought for a moment but couldn't come up with a name, he really didn't care who was ever on her stupid show. "Uh not really Kath'" "I've been talking about it for weeks silly.....The Hulk! He was supposed to be on with us but something happened to him" Frank was intrigued, nothing could hurt the Hulk, he was the most powerful person on the planet, "Oh really? What could have happened to him that he couldn't make it on the show?" Kathy waited a second, as she was really enjoying this, "Well Dr. Banner showed up, but he was unable to turn into the Hulk. It seems as if his powers were transfered to someone else!" "You don't say. That's strange I wonder how that happened. Do they know who his powers were transferred to?" Kathy Lee looked at her husband, the man that had cheated on her and embarrassed her in front of the nation, and laughed, "You wouldn't believe it. Not in a million years!" "Who?" Frank asked, curious to find out who the lucky soul was. "Well, what would you say if I told you I was thinking about getting a new wardrobe, one that matched green skin?" Frank became nervous, he wasn't sure if she was pulling some kind of prank on him. "C'mon, Kath', don't mess around." "Alright, I guess I'll just have to show you" And with that she began to grow bigger and bigger as she transformed herself. She watched in pure exhiliration as she saw the look come over Frank's face as he saw his wife growing huge right before his eyes. "Still don't believe me?" She asked as she flexed her thigh muscles in front of her. Each one was bigger around than Frank's entire chest. "I don't think you want to get trapped between my legs Frank, Dr. Banner, you know him; he used to be the Hulk until I got his powers, well he said that I can jump 3 miles at a clip. So I just wonder what legs that strong could do to an old guy like you. She reached down and cupped her hand under Frank's chin and lifted him up to her face, her biceps bulging twice as big as his head, "Let's face it Frank, things are going to be a little different around here." She dropped him to the floor and proceeded to sit on his face, "Get going Frank, you got some work to do!"
