Chapter 8

Gaz finds herself walking around in a park. "Where the heck am I?" She wondered. "How did I get here?" It wasn't a park she knew of anway. "HELLO!" She called. Her voice echoed. This caused Gaz to smile.

However what happened next made her loose that smile very fast.

All of a sudden, her stomach started to act like it had a mind of its own. It jerked around, knocking Gaz into the wall a few times, it bounced left, right, up, and down. And, if that wasn't bad enough, the sound of cows-mooing came from her stomach too.

Soon it stopped just as suddenly as it started. "What the heck was that kid?" She gasped, trying to catch her breath, as she looked at her belly. Unknown to her, as soon as she said 'kid' her belly grew a bit.

Later

Gaz sighed as she walked through the park, which seemed endless. She was rubbing her stomach as she did. "You know kid, I hope that, once you're born, you don't wail too much." Gaz shuckled. "My dad told me I could be quite the screamer when I wanted to, and I'm better my little guy will develop my lungs." She chuckled as she looed upward.

Suddenly Gaz felt strange. "What the? Why do I fee heavier." She llooked and gasped as she saw that her stomach had grown twice it's original size. "Wha the crap!?" She gased as she fell on her rear.

"What the crap?" She gasped. "How...I mean...I'm still having one aren't I? Just one kid?" She asked herself. No sooner did she say that, then her belly grew again.

"Oh great." She paniced. "Where's Kimi when you need her."

Somewhere...

Kimi finds herself walking around in a park. "Where the heck am I?" She wondered. "How did I get here?" It wasn't a park she knew of anyway. "HELLO!" She called. Her voice echoed. This caused Kimi to smile.

However what happened next made her lose that smile very fast.

All of a sudden, her stomach started to act like it had a mind of its own. It jerked around, knocking Kimi into the wall a few times, it bounced left, right, up, and down. And, if that wasn't bad enough, the sound of dogs barking came from her stomach too.

Soon it stopped just as suddenly as it started. "What the heck was that kid?" She gasped, trying to catch her breath, as she looked at her belly. Unknown to her, as soon as she said 'kid' her belly grew a bit.

Later

Kimi sighed as she walked through the park, which seemed endless. She was rubbing her stomach as she did. "You know kid, I hope that, once you're born, you don't wail too much." Kimi chuckled. "My mom told me I could be quite the best when I wanted to, and I'm bet my little guy will develop my skills." She chuckled as she looed upward.

Suddenly Kimi felt strange. "What the? Why do I feel heavier?" She looked and gasped as she saw that her stomach had grown twice its original size. "Wha the crap!?" She gasped as she fell on her rear.

"What the crap?" She gasped. "How...I mean...I'm still having one aren't I? Just one kid?" She asked herself. No sooner did she say that, then her belly grew again.

"Oh great." She panicked. "Where's Gaz when you need her? Darn you Timmy!"

Gaz got up and started walking quicker down the sidewalk in the park, but she never seemed to go anywhere. She was walking fast, but if felt like she was standing still.

Kimi was in the same predicament. As she started to walk faster, they seemed to move a lot slower. She was becoming very winded.

"This kid's gonna kill me", she sighed as he belly grew a bit. She finally noticed this.

"What the--?" she said, confused.

As Gaz started walking faster, she was also becoming very tired. She unknowingly repeated Kimi's words: "This kid's gonna kill me!" she said, wiping her sweat off her brow. With that her belly enlarged a bit.

"Oh, no!" she said, "Not again!"

Kimi stared at her belly for a minute. "What is going on? What is that baby doing?" Her tummy enlarged again. "What?" She said under her breath.

"Don't tell me this baby is going to get even larger on me now?" Gaz protested, remembering how her first dream went. He belly expanded again.

"Kid." Kimi said simply. Her belly grew.

"Baby." said Gaz. Hers grew, too.

They started to realize what was happening to them. They both took off running.

"Help! Help me!" Kimi screamed, "My baby is growing larger!" At that, her stomach grew even more.

"Tommy! Tommy!" Gaz screamed, "My tummy is growing again!" Gaz's stomach grew even larger, too.

They ran wildly, blindly into the forest of tress before them, as fast as they could with stomachs that were now almost ten times the size that they started out as.

Suddenly, they both ran into something that knocked them back onto their rears. They both screamed at the same time.

"My baby!" they both yelled. Their stomachs grew again. But something was strange. They heard each other.

As Kimi looked up she saw Gaz sitting in front of her!

As Gaz looked up she saw Kimi sitting in front of her!

"Kimi!"

"Gaz!"

"Help me!" They both said.

"Are you having the same problem I'm having?" Asked Gaz

"You mean everytime you say something about being pregnant, your belly grows?" Kimi said. Her belly grew again

"Yes!" Gaz said "Kimi listen to me! We have to stop saying these things about being pregnant!" Gaz's belly grew again.

"Yeah!" Kimi agreed, " If we don't stop, we could..."

"We could explode again!" Gaz said.

"Again?!" Kimi said. "You mean you already have once?"

"You mean you haven't already?" Gaz asked.

"Well, we need to stop talking about our babies!" Kimi yelled. Her stomach grew again.

"Well, then stop talking about or babies and we'll stop growing!" Gaz said as he stomach enlarged too. By now they were both around a mile wide. They could no longer move.

"I'm trying to stop talking about my baby!" Kimi yelled, growing a little larger again.

"Oh, no! I can't stop talking about my baby!" Gaz said

"I can't stop talking about my baby either!" Kimi yelled

Their stomachs grew again. By now they were gigantic. Gaz could see all the way to China. She was scared to death, it reminded her of her first dream. Now it was happening!

"I can't take much more of this! I need to give birth to this baby!" Just then Kimi's stomach grew twice.

"Kimi!" Gaz yelled, "Try not to say anything about the babies!" Gaz grew. "Oh, no!" She yelled, "I said something about the babies!" She grew again,

"D'oh! There goes my stomach again!" Gaz said as she grew again!

"Gaz be careful!" Kimi said, " Your stomach is larger than mine now!" Now Kimi grew again another two times. "Darn it!" She yelled.

"God, I hope we don't explode!" Gaz yelled.

"What do you mean EXPLODE?!" Kimi yelled back. By now they were both taking up half of the country each. The Air Force got called it, but nobody could take off because the runways were blocked.

"I had a dream like this once!" Gaz yelled back, "I grew and grew and grew (On each time she says "grew", she grows) and suddenly I exploded!"

"You mean we could get so large that we explode?!" Kimi yelled, "But what about the baby!?" She called as she grew again. Realizing she just messed up again, she tried to hit her forehead as she said "D'oh!" but she couldn't reach her head.

"Kimi! Just don't say anything about the baby!" Gaz said, and she grew.

"But Gaz!" Kimi yelled, "How can I not say anything about the baby if the baby is making everything I say be about the baby!?!" And with that Kimi grew three times.

"Smooth," Gaz said.

"Shut up," Kimi snapped.

"What are we gonna do?" Gaz whined, "We can't stop saying things about being pregnant!" She grew again.

"And our bellies keep growing bigger!" Kimi cried and grew again.

"We I can't grow anymore Kimi!" Gaz yelled, "I don't think I could take it!"

Kimi yelled, "Let's just keep quiet! If we don't say anything, nothing will happen, right?"

"Right!" Gaz called, "Great idea, Kimi!"

They both held their lips shut so that they didn't say anything. It was hard, especially when the urge hit them as if they were contractions.

Suddenly Gaz's baby kicked. Hard.

"OW!" Gaz cried, " My belly!"

"What happened?" Kimi yelled, "Did the baby kick?"

Uh-oh.

They both exploded violently, so hard that the accompanying earthquake actually scared people in California and Japan.

Suddenly Kimi and Gaz found themselves lying on the ground next to each other. Except all they were were just heads. They screamed at each other and then at themselves.

"Where did our bodies go?" Kimi yelled.

"I don't know! Where did the babies go?" Gaz cried. They both slowly turned their heads away from each other.

There were two million babies standing right there in front of them.

All at once in unison they said "HI MOMMY!"

All of a sudden the all plopped down on their rears screwed up their faces and let out a thunderous wail that shook the ground all the through to the other side of the earth. All the babies broke rank and started running around. Some were still crying, some were screeching shrilly, some were fighting with each other, and some were running around franticly trying to figure out who their mommy was: "Was I with you, or were we different?"

As The Chaos ran rampant around them, Gaz and Kimi looked at each other, and then back at the scene and SCREAMED.

Gaz woke up with a jolt again. "Holy Ciao" She thought to herself, it was just another crazy dream!

Tommy, who had become used to this by now, only woke up for a second to say, "It's okay, honey. It was just a dream, now try and get back to sleep."

Gaz decided Tommy was right. This baby was giving her weird dreams, and all she could do was just roll with it. She laid back down and went back to sleep.

Well, wait.

Gaz sat back up and looked at her belly.

"Baby" she said. It just sat there.

"Kid. Child. Belly. Pregnant." Nothing happened.

Gaz heaved a sigh of relief, snuggled up next to her husband, and fell back to sleep.

In another house:

Kimi woke up with a jolt. She was sweating profusely, and breathing heavily. She looked down at her self. She still had a body.

Timmy woke up quickly. "What?! What?! Is it time?! Is it time?!" He yelled nervously.

Kimi looked at him.

"No, no, it's okay." She said. "I just had the craziest dream."

Timmy wrinkled his eyebrows. "You know, I did too," he said, "I dreamed that two small people with wings and green and pink hair and glowy sticks were telling me that they love me and how proud of me they are, and that the baby is going to be a great person someday. They said they knew me since forever, but I swear I've never seen them in my life!"

"Wow," Kimi said, "That is weird."

"What did you dream about?" Timmy asked.
Kimi tried to think back, but she'd already forgotten what it was that made her flip out so much.

"Nevermind," Kimi said confused. She laid back down and fell back to sleep.

Timmy didn't go right back to sleep however. He sat, staring at the ceiling for a while, thinking. If he'd never seen those two flying figures in his dream before, then why did they seem so familiar, and why were they so proud of him? And why did he feel so close to them, as if he'd known them practically all his life?

What if...?

Nah.

Timmy rolled over and went back to sleep, Hugging Kimi tightly. Kimi hugged him back.

Suddenly the pink lamp's eyes opened.

"Whew! That was close!" it said quietly.

"Do you think he remembered us, Wanda?" the green alarm clock said.

"I don't think so, Cosmo." Wanda said. "Once you forget, you forget for good."

"I wish he didn't have to." Cosmo said sadly.

"Awww, me too, Big Daddy, but Timmy's a grown up, responsible, wonderful man, now." Wanda said, "Now lets get back to Fairy World and let our new daddy get some sleep."

"Okay Muffin!" Cosmo said as he poofed back.

Wanda looked at Timmy one last long time. "I'm proud of you, baby," she said before she poofed back to meet Cosmo.
