Amazon Amanda by M.C. A very large and powerful girl meets a boy Author's note. This inspiration for this story was a photo gallery of Amazon Amanda that she put up on this site on March 28th. Her website address is:  www.amazonamanda.com No doubt about it, Amanda was a big girl, a VERY BIG girl; big and strong - she'd been so all her life. By the time she was thirteen,  Amanda was five feet nine inches tall and weighed nearly 200 pounds. At sixteen, the attractive, raven haired girl topped six feet and approached 300. Despite her best efforts at weight control, Amanda continued to grow larger until finally, at  around the age of 18, her growth spurt finally stopped. By that time, however, she stood six feet three inches tall and weighed around 400 pounds. For obvious reasons, hers was not an easy adolescence. Being a girl with her dimensions, and strength, definitely had it's disadvantages; especially in the high school popularity department. Despite being a friendly, open and vivacious person, Amanda had a very difficult time making friends; especially friends of the opposite sex. Most of the boys were intimidated by her sheer size and great physical strength. High school culture being what it is, very few people wanted to be seen with a girl of Amazonian proportions...it just wasn't "cool". And then there was the constant teasing and snickering she heard behind her back from many of the other students. All in all, high school isn't an easy environment to be in when you're 'different' from the rest. Another person might have been broken by the experience, but not Amanda. Instead of feeling sorry for herself, she learned to cope with it by excelling at everything she did. Scholastically she was an "A" student and made the dean's list every year. Her great size and strength helped her in athletics where she became the state champion in both the shot put and discuss; her distances rivaling those of her male counterparts. Amanda was also the star center on the women's basketball team. One of her greatest thrills in high school occurred when, in the school's open wrestling tournament, she humiliated the defending champion - an arrogant, conceited football player who was constantly teasing her about her size. She toyed with the 300 pound lineman in front of the entire school before finally pinning him; he never teased her again. Amanda even excelled at chess, where she led her team to the city title. But, despite her successes, Amanda lacked the one thing she wanted the most; a boyfriend. After graduating high school with honors, Amanda went off to college on an athletic scholarship. At first she experienced the same kind of behavior that she had in high school; snide looks from other students as she walked by and the constant snickering behind her back. " Why can't they just accept me as I am," she wondered," does being large really make me so much different from everybody else ? " Apparently it did...and then she met Chris. For several weeks Amanda had noticed the good looking, but somewhat shy, boy sitting off to the side in her English literature class. When she would catch him looking at her, he would quickly avert his eyes. She felt he wasn't staring at her though, just looking. " Could he really be interested in me ? " she thought to herself. " Is this someone who actually isn't turned off by my size ? "  For the next few days Amanda watched...and waited. Finally, when she could contain her curiosity no longer, Amanda approached him after their class was over, held out her hand and said," hello, my name is Amanda; what's yours ? " An awkward moment followed as the boy, somewhat taken aback by her straightforward approach, seemed to be at a loss for words. " Chr-Chris," he replied at length and shook her hand. " Well Chris, I have a break before my next class. Would you like to join me for a cup of coffee ? " Another moment of silence followed - probably the longest moment in Amanda's life - before she heard the words she desperately wanted to hear..." yes, a cup of coffee would be great about now." The first hurdle had been cleared. As they sat and talked, Amanda and Chris discovered they had a lot of common interests. They read the same authors, enjoyed the same movies, shared similar tastes in music, and liked to go on long walks; Chris even played chess. Although not nearly as large as Amanda, Chris was a pretty fair athlete and kept his six foot, 200 pound body in good shape. The more they talked, the more they seemed to like one another - Amanda's size seemed less and less important. But, as they rose to leave, Chris looked up at the massive woman in front of him and paused...and Amanda's heart dropped. "Here it comes," she thought to herself, " now he's going to notice just how large I am...and feel intimidated. Will it never end ? " Another long pause followed, and then Chris nervously said," Amanda...I think...you...you're...so...sexy. Would you like to out on a date ? "   Amanda smiled. As the weeks passed, their friendship blossomed. Being her first true boyfriend, Amanda gave it everything she had - and she had a lot to give. Chris - who was indeed very introverted and never had a real 'girlfriend' before - gave it right back to her. Things seemed to be going great for them; until an incident at the student union threatened to derail their whole relationship. Chris had agreed to meet Amanda one afternoon after his history class in front of the student union and then they'd go for a walk. Arriving early, Chris decided to go inside and have a beer. As he entered, Chris saw the usual groups of students sitting off in corners. Around a large table in the center of the room sat about twenty jocks; football and basketball players, wrestlers etc. They were drinking beer and mingling with six cheerleaders. As Chris didn't run with that crowd, he ordered a beer and walked over to an empty table off to the side. He couldn't help but hear the giggling as he walked past their table though, and he knew why. As he sat down, Chris noticed that the jocks and cheerleaders kept pointing over in his direction and laughing. Inside, Chris began to seethe; " why can't they just leave her alone. So she's big; she's also a wonderful person...people can be so cruel." He might have kept his temper in check, had one of the more obnoxious jocks not gotten up and sauntered over to his table. "Well, you're the boyfriend of that Amanda girl aren't you...and I use the word 'girl' loosely. What's it like, being in bed with a blue whale ? "  When he said this, the entire table of jocks and cheerleaders laughed; and Chris' anger overwhelmed his restraint. Although he knew that he was no match for the 250 pound football player that stood in front of him, he no longer cared. He, as well as his girlfriend, had just been insulted; he felt he had to do something. Rising to his feet, Chris tossed his half empty glass of beer into the arrogant man's face. " Fuck you, asshole," he shouted with uncharacteristic courage. Before Chris knew what was happening, the infuriated jock grabbed him by his shirt collar, cocked back his fist and prepared to rearrange his face. Overmatched, Chris prepared himself for the worst...and then he heard a loud female voice cry out," Stop it right there ! That's my boyfriend...LEAVE HIM THE HELL ALONE ! " A deafening silence followed as Amanda's majestic form entered the room. She seemed to have arrived just in the nick of time; for Chris that is. As she made her way over to where Chris and his antagonist stood, the angry Amazon shed the restraints that had - for so many years - tempered her behavior towards those who had rejected her. She had learned to deal with it for herself...but this was her boyfriend. Why should Chris be subjected to the humiliations that she had to endure for so many years ?  This was unacceptable, and Amanda could not, would not, allow it.  A kind of eerie silence crept over the student union as all the students present stared at the dramatic scene that was unfolding before them. " Take your hands off him now you bully !" Amanda demanded," or you'll regret it for a long time to come." Though she outweighed him by nearly 150 pounds, he was an athlete in top shape. He certainly wasn't about to back down from a girl - not in front of his friends and the cheerleaders. " And what if I don't ? " he responded arrogantly," what are you going to do about it, you tub of lard ? "  A strange smile then appeared on Amanda's pretty face as she replied, " I was sort of hoping you'd say something like that." Without saying another word, she raised her arm and " WHACK !", slapped him hard across the face with her open hand. Such was the force of her blow that the football player spun around and fell to the floor. " Why you fat bitch, you'll pay for that." He got to his feet and threw a punch at Amanda but she, showing a speed which one would never expect from a girl so large, put up her arm and blocked his fist in mid-air. She then grabbed him by the collar of his shirt with one hand and, with the other, his belt buckle. Amanda then lifted the stunned man high above her head in her outstretched arms. Without showing any sign of strain, she then carried him over to the table where his friends sat and slammed him down on top of it; shattering the table and showering his friends with beer. With her hands on her hips, Amanda smiled at them and said," sorry about that, but your friend here really needed a lesson in table manners." Twenty enraged athletes then rose from their chairs and encircled her - twenty guys against one girl. Looking over at Chris, Amanda winked and said in a calm voice that belied the situation she was in," you stay there sweetie pie where you'll be safe...I'll handle this." Then, turning her attention back to the men that now surrounded her, she said," my beef wasn't with you, just your friend there. If you'll all just return to your chairs, we can forget about this little incident; if not, well...do all you big, strong guys really want to fight little old me ? "  The answer was 'yes'. As fellow athletes, they were offended by what had happened to their friend at the hands of this woman. They felt they had to avenge his humiliation. It didn't matter that he was the one who instigated it in the first place. He was one of them and the score had to be settled. And if that wasn't reason enough, all the cheerleaders were yelling," c'mon guys, kill that fat bitch ! "  Sometimes people are in control of events, and sometimes events are in control of people. This would definitely fall into the latter category. Completely surrounded by large, strong, muscular (and angry) athletes, seeking revenge for their friend's humiliation, Amanda's situation might have seemed pretty hopeless. Indeed, the scene in the student union that day did have a look of surrealism about it - twenty men against one woman. But this wasn't just any woman...this was Amanda, a six foot-three inch, 400 pound Amazon; and what followed became legend. As the athletes closed in on her, Amanda stood up on one of her toes and began to twirl around in a perfect ballet pirouette. How a 400 pound woman could spin around with such grace and perfect balance remains a mystery, but graceful she certainly was. She then did something no ballerina would ever do. She extended her arms and made fists while spinning around rapidly. WHAM ! POW ! SMASH !  Three of the closest jocks were literally sent flying across the room after they made contact with Amanda's fists. BAM ! WHACK ! SLAM ! three more were flattened by the female tornado. " WHEEEE, this is so much fun !," Amanda laughed as she continued to twirl around knocking athletes all over the place. No matter how big or strong they were, once she connected with her fist they went down...and didn't get up again. In an amazing display of her power and strength, Amazon Amanda ( as she would be known from now on throughout the university, much to her delight ) beat up eighteen of the twenty men she faced; in less than three minutes. Only two remained, and they were cowering in one of corners. Smiling, Amanda approached them. She grabbed each one by the shirt and lifted them both off the floor - together, they weighed over 400 pounds ! " Tell you what I'm gonna do boys. If you apologize to by boyfriend for being rude to him, I'll let you off easy. If not...Bonk, Bonk." She playfully banged their heads together a couple of times as a warning to what she'd do to them if they didn't. Needless to say, they apologized. Amanda then hung them both up on a coat rack. Now, there was just one more thing to take care of. She walked over to the six cheerleaders who were just standing by the shattered table in a state of shock; not believing what they had just seen. " Fat bitch eh ? Well, we'll see about that." Grabbing them all by their long hair, Amanda tied them together in tight a knot. " There, that should keep you girls occupied for awhile." Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a date with my boyfriend." When Amanda returned to Chris, he had a very strange look on his face. He too, was in something of a state of shock. After all, he just witnessed his girlfriend beat up twenty big, strong guys...he probably couldn't even beat the weakest of them. How was it possible? It seemed beyond belief. Amanda felt his consternation and knew she must act quickly...or she might lose him. Taking Chris by the hand, she led him out of the student union building to a secluded area where they could be alone. " Chris," she began," I know what you must be thinking. After what you just saw me do, I can't blame you if you're having second thoughts about our relationship. But you have to understand something about me. For most of my life I've been stoically enduring the slights and taunts that people have made towards me in the mistaken belief that I'd somehow be accepted that way. I was wrong and, from today, all that's going to change. I'm a big, strong girl and DAMN proud of it. But I don't want you to ever be intimidated by me. I'd never hurt you Chris...because...I love you. You're the kindest, sweetest person I've ever met. That's why I did what I did; I couldn't let that bully hit you. And as for his friends, they were teasing you because you are my friend. Yes, I saw what was happening. I was sitting off in a corner when you entered the student union. I saw it all. They deserved the beating I gave them; as will anyone else who teases you from now on. But please, don't ever be afraid of me." When Amanda finished, Chris had tears in his eyes. Impulsively he hugged his six foot-three inch, 400 pound superwoman. "Amanda, I love you too. I've loved you since I first saw you in our English literature class. You're so big...so strong; the kind of woman I've always fantasized about. I just couldn't bring myself to talk to you. I was so happy that day you asked me out for coffee." As they continued to embrace each other, Chris felt himself being slowly lifted off the ground and he knew that here, snug and secure in Amanda's massive arms, he was safe...that no harm would ever come to him...that there was no place else he'd rather be. " Come honey," she whispered softly in his ear," let's go home."
