Pt.4 The Beuty and the beast

The Alarm went out and once again it was time for me to wake up and embrace the new day.I Went out and faced it.I looked at my cell

“Still here I see” I said slightly soberly to myself looking at my cell walls which were scribbled with my over calculations and other such texts I had written on to them, reassuringly gazing back at me.

First I had my breakfast

It was most satisfactory.I liked porridge,especially when it became nice and rotten,it tasted so well.I asked them to make it like this for especially for me,it was most kind of the staff to comply with my preferances.After that I went around to see how things were going.

When I went to the pool to check out how my collegues are getting on.I saw Link racing Jaromir the Vodnik in the pool,and promptly lost,it was neck and neck. It used to be easy for him to win ,now he is struggling to win in his own element.

After his defeat he went on to talk with some other inmates“C'mon Babe why won't you give me a chance?”Link said asking the Goblin Queen for what I could assume would be some sort of a date

“Because you would be a weak link to me” She said while those were cruel words.but I had to admit there was a grain of truth in it.After that I went back to my cell.

I passed a few other cells.One that held The Gerry the Ghoul of Graydale, a phantom attacker who terrorized his village of Graydale.He gave me a rather unfriendly look,he always was, and still is a Buffon.

After that I passed Morana's cell. She was an alleged“Goddess of Winter”in slavic folklore.But to be honest her powers were often magnified by the fear pertained over her, and her limitless power was a mere myth(Not to say she wasn't very powerful but wasn't the undefeatable all powerful deity she was made out to bee)but she sat there in his extra secure cell,living proof that there was always some truth in legends!

She looked at me with interest and said “Come here you little ugly buggy,don't be scared.I just want to play”She said in a rather spine-chilling tone,but I was no fool.I wasn't going to play her “games” and just went on.

On my way back I met Bob ,he was oozing along at such a pace that it seemed as though something was amiss.

“Bob?Where are you off to in such a hurry?”I asked this brainless being

“Don't know where,But somewhere” he said jovially racing along,he wasnt picky and would just race around at times

Still as happy as he was since he first came here,after all the decades of imprisonment.The Irony of it all,I envied him.This simple-simon was far more joyful and content with this life than I,almost as if I strived for being dumber and simpler and…well…blind.

Later that day I returned to the meeting room and I saw Link had taken interest in Titanica,err Susan.

“Hey babe!”Link shouted at her “Check out my biceps”…he didn't have any really but Susan wasn't the type to rain on his parade.

“Gee…”She said obviously trying to find them

“Hey?Could I take a closer look at you?”Link said to her

“Well,I uh- I don't know becua-”But before She could finish her sentence, Links flippers were going up her legs and he climbed up all the way her head and looked at her close-up.I must admit Link really was behind the times,I tried to teach him manners and It didn't go very well so we gave up on that futile venture.

“Well,I have never seen you up so close,” Link said, looking over her face

I saw her blush and say “Gee. I haven't even used makeup since I came here.”Susan admitted,to be honest .I can't blame her for not doing anything to care for her skin since she came here…not that I had much of a choice though.

“Well you'll need them" Link said ”Your skin has wrinkles and it's so dry.I never knew gals looked so unattractive when they get this big,I guess you really aren't that attractive”He said

Those words must have pierced right though poor Susan.I saw her start to sob,.

She ran as fast as she could to the loneliness of her room.She started crying and I understand why.She must have been thinking to herself that her size would prevent any real relationships or who would want to love her now that every flaw or problem would now be nine times bigger.Or maybe even being grateful for being here so that others would see her.All these problems that came with the change.

…“I'M JUST A STUPID,BIG,UGLY MONSTER”I heard her wail

I felt for Susan,I wanted to go over to her but I twitched in fear, while I am a rational man; the bug part of me has primal fears,which include a fear of being crushed by something giant,like Titanica.

“Come one Jacques!Be a rational man, she wouldn't do it to you!You should know better!”I said it to myself silently and so after that I went forth to face my fears.True some of them were because when she first came here she was afraid of me the "Hideuos Bug-thingy"as she said and tried to crush me in fear.I dont blame her,after her ordeal and being greeted by me and being scared of me but by now she was accustomed to me.

She was still crying lying on her bed,with me trying to calm her down by saying

“Dont take his words like that Susan!Link is very primitive and has no experience with manners or politeness”.In fact I tried to change his ways to no avail,I let it be,after all its natural for him to be like this.

“Do you honestly think Derek will still love me?”She said soberly to me

“Well,he would be a damn fool not to!”I said to her instantaneously in reply.

“Now come on Susan you won't let Link's words get to you,he really doesn't mean it.I said to her I was throughly distraught by her current state and tried to cheer her up.”

“And even so, how can he call you ugly?Just look at me!Two Big eyes,Two antennas I am quite literally on one half a bug!An ugly beast!"I said to Susan,while I don't fancy the Idea of insulting myself, I had to make her realize that whatever was wrong with her was negligible,so she could feel better.

“You on the other hand are a beauty”I said, still trying to lift her spirits.I saw her slightly smile and say “Aw come on Doc,you're not that ugly”She said to me

“Maybe looks aren't all that important” I added

However, despite briefly making her a tad more joyful,it was only temporary.Soon Susan was low again.I realized that to help her regain her confidence, I had to make Link eat his words,so I promptly crawled over to his cell.

I passed by Bob who was throwing his eyeball against the wall and catching it and doing it again and again happily laughing to himself.Blissfully ignorant as always.

Grubzilla was in his usual trance-like state staring at the fluorescent lights in awe as if he were a little boy looking at a hypnotic coin.

Then I was at Links cell.It looked like an oversized fishbowl,it had a castle a treasure chest,some seaweed and some sand at the bottom.Links waterproof television set was on and on it was running a kan-kan show.Link was curled up at the bottom of his tank on his bed sleeping,two inflatable dolls in the form of women floated in the tank,on which Link would practice his “swoon”and “charisma”on.

I was greeted by a sleeping fish-ape and a sing beside the cell which as always read: PLEASE DO NOT TAP ON GLASS

“Link?I Called out to the Fish-Ape primate

“Huh?”My wet friend said,he was clearly only half asleep.

“Please come with me,It's important”I told him

“Fine,fine im coming”he said rather grumpily

He went along with me to Susan and when we got there link finally asked

“What's up Doc?”Link said

“I think you owe poor Susan an apology”I replied

“Ok,Suz If I were free back on some beach like Pismo or Cocoa I would totally kidnap you”Link said smirking a bit and almost begrudgingly”

“Link,that isn't a real apology," I added.I wanted Susan to get a true one to help her get over it.Link had to take it all back!

“Ok fine ,Susan you're beautiful and I'm sorry I was insensitive to you”.Link se begrudgingly

She looked at me and smiled,I smiled back.Enough was said in words and the rest could be told without words

It felt so comforting to see her get out of the rut even if it likely would not last long.

—----------------------------------------------------------------------------

And It didn't.Soon Susan was starting to descend into desperation,but I came back to try and lift her spirits

“Hello again Madame Susan!Would you fancy asking me some questions ?I can answer them for you,I'm sure you might be curious about something and I am sure that I have an answer”I know this place as well as the back of my antenas after all. "

“Well… when was the last time you saw the outside world?”She Quizzed me

“Well,I think It was about fifty years or so?”I replied

“What?But I you dont look...well young-ish well then again its hard to tell when I dont have any real experience with humanoid cockroach.She said in surprise and I think I could see a her look a bit confused almost disgusted.

"My Cockroach transformation gifted me with many powers,one of which included that my aging process came to a halt.Then again I doubt it matters when im a horrible monster"I said the final lines in a bit of a comedic tone.

Susan Smiled a bit,and i think I heard her chuckle a little

But I didn't want to bring to her further gloom by revealing that her getting cosmetics or the like would impossible.It was a bit of a dilemma for me.As she would likely find it out the hard way eventually.But these were trying times for her,times where she had to keep calm and try to carry on.

This wasnt a mall or anything and I doubt there was any place which had size XXXXXL for her.

I didn't want to make her sad again, at least not now,so I let this charade go on.

I in a way I felt responsible to help Susan after all I knew what she went through she was seeking true companionship.Just like me,I had had some lab partners,Colleagues,some other friends and some family, at time I stay up at night and wonder how long did they wait for me to return.

If any are still waiting(as I just “disappeared” and they don't know anything about the truth)and If those who had not passed on as the years went on,did my friendship with them ever die?Why I didn't even have a chance to say Goodbye.While I usually bury those ties under my work and knowledge.At times I can't help but just feel that I'm missing something.

But this made me think,Susan was missing almost everything, I should demand better conditions for Susan. She has such a bare bones life it was just enough for survival and not for living at all.

Before going back to my cell I put on some music on the radio to try her.”Well met again eh?”Fitting I said and put it on

youtube

“Excuse me Madam but I must go now”I excused myself and left

Eventually Monger did come in about 2 hours later.There were no clocks or calendars at our disposal so I naturally built a clock and It measured time precisely and when he did I walked up to him and asked him for a private discussion…alone.

“Monger,Susans has trouble grappling with this change in her life her,you should do more for her”

“Listen, Cockroach, she has what she needs.And It aint cheap to do upgrades for someone her size”Monger said to me

It was clear to me without a shadow of a doubt that I had to resort to reasoning with him “Look, you're scientist gave you strength readouts didn't they?”

“Yes…and they were….very impressive” he said with a bit of awe in his voice

“If you don't tend to her well she might do something irrational as a result of it.Wouldn't it be best to keep her happy?”

“Hmm,well I think we could do a little more for her ,you do have a point,I'll see what I can do” Monger said doubtless he realized how right I was in my statements.

He didn't underestimate my genius,he was amazed by the weapons and vehicles and other inventions I was tasked at designing like the 300 knot fast attack ship,The Unitron,or that 500 Ton flying tank, the sixth generation jet fighter and other such marvels of machinery if I do say so myself.

Thinking about it at times makes me feel guilty of building so many instruments of destruction on the other and I remind myself “Remember the more powerful weapons there will be more fear preventing war and even when it does happen weapons are far from the times of the Napoleonic wars where it could hit anyone in the crossfire,but with this it will only go after the target and nullify unnecessary deaths and the war is over sooner,so in fact I am helping peace” And even if not with such weapons even so I do find fascination and a feeling of accomplishment in creating such things,just the feeling of it all gives me some real purposes and usage of my intellect

I do have a four digit IQ score after all

EXTRA

SONG!

Susan had a way of picking up the day.

Maybe it's a kind of magic,the only Giantess can do,

But seeing Susan smile

Made me stop a while and enjoy the moment

She's only a girl name Susan,a girl named Susan Murphy

She just a girl next door,maybe a little more

She's just a girl in every town

The world is full of lots of people her and there and all around.

But people after all,start as being small

and were all a girl named…

Susan Murphy
