David, Fang, and Marcus rush to Tyler's room when they hear him shout in alarm. But when they arrive they realize they've made a big mistake. Tyler wasn't shouting in alarm but in excitement.

When David and his friends Marcus and Fang heard Tyler shout in alarm they hadn’t hesitated to abandon the movie they had been gathered on David’s couch to watch. A series of heavy footsteps from the trio of large men led to Tyler’s bedroom door nearly being ripped off its hinges as David burst into the room; The kangaroo and wolf right behind him. They had expected to find David’s undersized older brother having seriously hurt himself somehow or even being accosted by an intruder from the volume of Tyler’s wordless exclamation. What they hadn’t expected to find was the purple dragon looking like he was an adult dressed in kid’s clothes with his shirt ridden up to expose almost his entire stomach and his jean shorts digging into his waistline and similarly ridden up to expose most of his thighs; more too-tight booty shorts than regular jean shorts. But even more unexpected than that was when David had burst into the room Tyler’s turned his head to turn in their direct and look at David. Specifically: look at David eye to eye.
From the same height.
From the excited expression on Tyler’s face David and his friends could tell the shouting had been from excitement, not distress. Part of David wanted to chew his brother out for making him worry but he was far too focused on Tyler’s inexplicable new height.
“What the… how…” Marcus broke the stunned silence first, He tried but ultimately failed to form a coherent question.
“Oh, hey Marcus, Fang.” Tyler said to the two behind his brother. His tone was light and casual as if nothing was out of the ordinary. But the wide grin still splitting his muzzle nearly in half made it abundantly clear he not only knew how wrong things were but that he was actually enjoying it! “And hey there LITTLE brother…”
David immediately bristled at Tyler’s choice of word. It wasn’t that he cared about being the little brother chronologically or even really physically. But Tyler only called him that when he was up to something. When David opened his mouth to reply he failed to form words when he noticed something. Tyler was up to something, alright. Up to about about seven foot 10 inches! The younger, but no longer bigger, dragon was absolutely positive Tyler had been eye level with him just moments before. But now he was having to look up at Tyler to maintain eye contact. Tyler hadn’t just grown taller. He was STILL growing.
“Isn’t this awesome?!” Tyler exclaimed. The excitement in his voice quickly turned to amusement just south of teasing when he caught on that he was having to look down lower and lower to meet David’s eyes. “Now I get to be the older AND the bigger brother. Sorry to take your position from you but you’ll just have to settle for being bigger than everyone else BUT me.”
“Ahem.” Fang cleared his throat.
“Ok, Taller than ALMOST everyone.” Tyler corrected.
“Thank you.” Fang responded graciously with an amused smirk tugging the edges of his lips upward.
Both David and Marcus turned towards the black wolf that loomed over the two of them. They stared at him with a mix of confusion and disbelief before Marcus finally asked what neither of them understood.
“Why the hell are you so calm about this?” Marcus asked with the tiniest hint of suspicions and accusation in his voice. “Did you have something to do with this?”
That elicited a bark of laughter from the beefy wolf. “What? God know I have no fucking clue whats going on. I just think it’s kinda bad ass. Not gonna lie, I am a tiny bit jealous. If I knew however whatever this is was happening do you think my head would still be this far from the ceiling? Bare minimum I’d ensure that my ears were brushing it right now.”
“Uh, speaking of which…”
Tyler’s voice drew the trio’s attention back to him nearly the exact moment his shirt ripped apart and the fly of his pants burst open. They would have been left gawking at the gigantic bulge of Tyler’s junk stretching his already wildly undersized boxer briefs into an overtaxed string-bikini but even that was momentarily overshadowed by the dull thump of Tyler’s head hitting the ceiling.
David and Marcus both gawked as they were forced to crane their head back to look up at the towering purple dragon. The ceilings in their house were typically around ten feet tall which meant, if his head was already bumping into it, Tyler was over ten feet tall now, too!
“Yo, Tyler. You gonna share? What’s a wolf gotta do to get a bit more height?” Fang called out only partially joking.
“Aren’t you big enough?” Tyler asked, smirking.
Fang snorted dismissively. “There isn’t such a thing as too big.”
“Will you guys stop acting like this is normal?!” Marcus practically shouted.
The whole room went quiet save for the barely audible creaking sound Tyler’s overtaxed elastic underwear made. David who, up to that point had been frozen staring up at his huge and still visibly growing brother, snapped out of his daze. Calming himself as best he could the blue dragon decided to focus on the what next rather than the how.
“How big are you going to get, Tyler?” David asked.
Tyler’s response was to smile wide enough it looked almost manic and laugh “I have no idea!”
“Oh now I’m even more jealous.” Fang commented. “And why the hell did you never tell us that the your brother was hung like a whale, D?” Rather than respond David shot the wolf a glare. Sighing, Fang rolled his eyes but stopped talking.
“Tyler, putting aside how the hell this is happening, do you see the problem here?”
Tyler blinked in confusion. He had been so absorbed in the wonderfully, borderline sexually stimulating sensation of growth that he hadn’t really thought about anything else. Shifting his stance a bit to better balance as he was forced to crouch lower and lower under the increasingly low ceiling, the overgrown dragon considered the situation for a few moments before shrugging and smirking.
“That we’re gonna need a lot more food to feed me?” he joked.
“No.” David growled. It felt strange for him to be the voice of reason when that had been almost exclusively Tyler’s domain for most of their life. “You can’t even stand up straight anymore. We need to get you outside before you get trapped in here.”
That took Tyler aback. Now that his brother had pointed it out Tyler glanced to the door and saw that it did, in fact, look almost comically tiny. Forget ducking under it the now nearly fifteen foot tall dragon wasn’t sure if he would even fit by crawling through it. As much as it pained him to admit there was a legitimate concern with what otherwise was in the most literal sense a dream come true for Tyler, he couldn’t deny it.
“Well… Fuck. Ok I see the problem. I guess I need to get outside while I still can.”
Before the others could discuss the matter further Tyler moved towards the door. Being between it and the now intimidatingly large former runt of a dragon David scrambled back into the hall, pulling Fang along behind him, while Marcus stayed in the room and just stumbled off to the side. With a series of impacts that shook the floor a lot more than David was comfortable with Tyler got down on his hands and knees and tried to crawl through the doorway.
Immediately there was a problem. Even with his slender build Tyler was already so large overall that his shoulders were wider than the door frame. It took a bit of squirming and careful maneuvering of his arms but eventually he was able to get his upper body through the door. David did his best to direct his brother as if guiding movers how to handle heavy furniture. The flicker of relief that they weren’t too late Tyler getting halfway through the door gave David quickly snuffed out when the walls shook with a much stronger impact than the ones from Tyler had made earlier. When he craned his head to look past Tyler’s increasingly broad body the color drained from his face. Tyler may have gotten his upper half through but he wouldn’t be getting the rest of the way out of the room. His lower body, particularly his hips and ass, were simply too wide for the door frame now.
“Oh. Shit uh, Hey David I think I’m stuck.” Tyler explained nervously in a voice now even louder and deeper than it had been. A couple of minutes prior.
“God this is awesome.” David heard from behind him. When he glanced over his shoulder he saw Fang holding up his phone to record Tyler struggling to get his growing body out of the hallway. “I definitely got to get him to let me in on this.”
Trying to ignore that distraction David tried to think of a way to get Tyler out. He was too big for the door which meant he was definitely too big for the windows. He briefly considered lubricating Tyler’s sides to see if he could slip through but quickly dismissed it. Even if they could manage to do that Tyler was still growing even now. Even if it wasn’t impossible right then it would be by the time they managed to get the door frame slick enough. What finally made up David’s mind was the next loud THUD that shook not just the hallway wall but the entire house.
Tyler had tried to force himself through again with even less success this time. In fact, not only had he not gotten through but the wall around his door frame was now visibly bowing outwards and had cracks running along several areas of the drywall. More than that, In the process of trying to pull himself forward, Tyler arm had slipped out from under him and his elbow had slammed into the wall at the end of the hall by a result. When he pulled his arm back there was a hole in the drywall as big around as David’s head like someone had just smashed a bowling ball right through.
“Fuck it. Tyler just force your way through.” David ordered.
Tyler blinked dumbly. “What?”
“You heard me. Just force yourself through even if it breaks your door. You’re still getting bigger and theres no way you’re getting out of there now without breaking something.”
Tyler looked at his now much smaller brother dubiously. But when no better idea came to mind he just said “Fuck it.” And did as he was told.
It genuinely scared David a bit how easily Tyler pulled himself through. When the dragon, who now had to be well over twenty feet tall, wasn’t trying to be delicate all it took was one rough shove from his legs on the other side of the door and the door frame along with a couple of feet of the wall around it just exploded outwards in a shower of broken drywall and broken wooden beams. Just like that with seemingly no effort Tyler had caused at least a couple thousand dollars of property damage to their home.
“Ok I’m through!” Tyler shouted triumphantly. When he glanced up and saw David and even Fang wincing in pain the growing dragon remembered how loud his voice was getting. “Oops. Sorry.” He apologized quickly in a much softer tone.
Trying to not waste more time, Tyler crawled his way down the hall a little bit at a time. David and Fang both backpedaled to stay ahead of him . But just when they thought they might be in the clear there was another thud that shook the walls and Tyler stopped moving.
David didn’t need to ask what was wrong. His dread had been building the longer it took Tyler to get down the hall and now it had come to fruition. Even on his hands and knees Tyler had been forced to hunch down lower and lower as he literally filled out the hallway with his growing bulk. And now, when he was only a few feet from making it into the living room, he was stuck. Tyler was too big for the hallway. Even now they could hear the creaking and cracking of straining support beams and bending drywall being shoved back by Tyler’s expanding mass. Just by staying in place Tyler’s growth was starting to destroy the insides of their house. What was worse was that David had been able to watch Tyler the entire time he was in the hallway and had confirmed his worst fear. Tyler was growing faster than before. Best David could guess the longer Tyler grew the faster it got.
“Ok, uh. New plan.” Tyler said. “Run.” It was David’s turn to blink in confusion. When he didn’t immediately do what Tyler said the now over thirty foot tall dragon growled in a voice that was far more genuinely threatening now than when Tyler had been a runt. “I can feel it getting faster. And I can feel myself breaking stuff even if I can’t see it. I think my tail’s already outside. It broke through a wall and I think I feel grass.” He explained.
Suddenly Tyler’s eyes went wide a moment before he clenched his jaw as if he were straining against something. At first David thought he was having trouble breaking through some part of the house that was digging into him. The reality was what finally made him heed Tyler’s advice. Despite Tyler’s efforts to try and hold it in however he could, the tingling charge that had been coursing through him the entire time he had been growing surged as if suddenly super-charged! The moment it made it past Tyler’s ultimately futile attempts to restrain the feeling, his body SURGED larger in an abrupt, brief growth spurt far, far faster than he had been growing up to that point.
In the less than five seconds the growth spurt lasted Tyler must have gained over a dozen feet in height. David and Fang both watched as the purple dragon’s entire body bulldozed its way through the interior walls of the house while his back broke through into the second story. A few bits of furniture, some of it incredibly heavy like David’s solid oak dresser, crashed down through the widening holes only to bounce off Tyler’s hide without him even seeming to feel them. Somewhere behind the giant dragon they heard the shattering of glass followed a moment later by Marcus’s muffled voice from outside after jumping through the window in Tyler’s room.
“Guys, get the fuck out of there!”
Even Fang looked a bit worried for an instant before he hid it the expression under his usual confident smirk. With a brief glance at one another David and Fang both dashed for the front door. David was a few steps closer and fumbled with the deadbolt trying to get it open. When he wasn’t fast enough Fang shouted for him to get out of the way and simply shoulder rammed his way straight through!
The two got outside and scrambled into the lawn just as Tyler was having another growth spurt. The roof of the dragon siblings house caved in on itself only to be shoved back up then out of the way as it was replaced by a growing wall of purple. A sharp CRACK drew their attention to the side where they saw Tyler’s tail had, indeed, already broken through the back wall and was now smashing through the neighbor’s fence as it stretched into their yard.
Like a chicken hatching from an egg the now-gigantic purple dragon rose into a sitting position with what had to be multiple tons of broken construction materials and debris slid off his back and shoulders to pile in the back yard. The debris was kicked up into a cloud and the ground shook when Tyler tried to get into a less awkward position and wound up sitting with his legs stretched out in front of him to either side of the small bits of standing house beneath him. When the dust finally cleared it looked like Tyler had stopped growing as far as David and his friends could tell. But that didn’t make how much of Tyler there already was any less impressive.
David’s best guess was that his formerly five foot nothing under-grown older brother had to be nearly a hundred feet tall. His legs spread and stretched out like they were, stuck out well past where Marcus had ran over to join David and Fang in the front yard. They stretched out until his feet were propped up in the yard across the street. Even sitting he towered multiple stories above any of the houses in the area, much less the three of them. Surprisingly, part of the front wall of their house was still intact. The front door and maybe five or so feet of wall to either side of it and about half of the second floor of the wall defiantly stood standing like some kind of mocking censor bar that blocked most of the view between Tyler’s legs. Even then, with the windows blown apart and the front door smashed out by Fang there were more than enough hints of the flesh hidden within to make Marcus blush, David avert his eyes, and Fang give a whistle of approval.
“Whoa.” Tyler said as he looked around the neighborhood from his new vantage for the first time. His voice, magnified beyond even its lower pitch and higher volume from earlier, seemed to rumble across the neighborhood; something that amused Tyler greatly. “Everything is so small from up here.”
“It’s not small, you’re just big you overgrown idiot!” Tyler heard David’s voice, much quieter and higher pitched than he was used to, shout up at him from below. A quick glance down brought a grin to the giant’s face when he caught sight of them.
“Holy shit, you guys are so TINY”! Tyler exclaimed loud enough that all three were forced to cover their ears.
“Keep your voice down!” David shouted up at his brother.
“Let’s hear it! How exactly did we wind up with our own personal nerdzilla?” Marcus called up to the giant purple dragon, unable to resist his curiosity anymore despite the insanity of the situation.
“Yea, Tyler. I think It’s time you told us what the hell is going on.” David agreed. “Explain to us exactly what caused you to wind up destroying our house.
Just when Tyler was opening his mouth to explain Fang cut him off.
“And whatever did it you better give me some too!” The wolf shouted up at the runt-turned-titan with a grin.
“Absolutely not!” both Marcus and David shouted at exactly the same time.
Deflated, Fang grumbled under his breath to himself. “God, you guys are such spoilsports.”
Amused, Tyler was happy to wait for them to finish arguing among themselves before he finally told David what happened.
“Well It all started when I ordered this sample box of experimental supplements online…”
