He came out to do his morning stretches\n\nwhen he suddenly paused in shock and saw large piles of leaves scattered in front of his yard. Though he lived alone and did not\n\nhave many visitors, he did not want to leave his place unkempt.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I didn't want to do yard work today, but it looks like I have no choice,\" Cameron said to\u0026nbsp;\n\nhimself. Before going to his shed, he went back into the hut, went into his drawers, and pulled out his purple jumpsuit. He then put\n\nit on and headed out to his shed, where he kept his supplies. Inside were some piled high worn-out boxes, a dull shovel, a broken rake,\n\ncoiled extension cords, and a brand-new leaf blower inside. Cameron was drawn to the leaf blower since it had been recently purchased\n\nand it was the replacement for the rake he disliked. He thought that would be the most efficient and fastest way to clean up his yard.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThat should do it, Cameron thought as he retrieved the blower. He took a second to look\u0026nbsp;\n\nat the name of the brand of the leaf blower he bought while in the city of New Mobotropolis. \"Big Air 5500\" was engraved on the handle,\n\nand it was one of the best models on the market. All older, cheaper models had already sold out, so only the newest model was available.\n\nHowever, Cameron bought the blower since he was procrastinating on purchasing one. It was an expensive investment, but he needed it for\n\nthe fall, as he hated raking, especially with a broken rake. Upon inspecting the blower, Cameron observed that the cord was exceedingly\n\nlong. So it meant that he did not have to uncoil the extension cord.\n\n\"With this much cord length, I could blow all the leaves out of the entire forest,\"\u0026nbsp;\n\nCameron said, amusingly. He plugged it into his generator, which was next to his shed, and turned it on. Immediately, an obnoxious whirring\n\nsound emanated throughout the forest area. With a tight grip, he aimed the blower towards the leaf piles. The forced air scattered the leaves further\n\naway. The activity became enjoyable for Cameron, as he could work continuously without feeling exhausted compared to using a rake that\n\nmalfunctioned. He walked farther from his hut, knowing that the cord was long enough for him to walk to the edge of his property. In a short amount\n\nof time, the leaves were no longer polluting the property. They were moved to the forest, next to the hut.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThat was fun, but now I can relax for the rest of the day, Cameron thought satisfyingly.\u0026nbsp;\n\nHe flipped the switch to turn off the blower, but it still kept whirring. He figured the switch was broken, so he figured he would have to turn it\n\noff manually by unplugging it. In his haste to reach the cable, he neglected to notice it was tangled on the ground and tripped.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oof! I'm such a klutz! I hope I didn't break-\" Cameron suddenly saw the blower tube\u0026nbsp;\n\nfly into his snout as he was voicing his concerns for the well-being of the blower. The forced air flowed into his body. He immediately puffed\n\nup as if he was a fluffy marshmallow. His abdomen became engorged at a pace quicker than expected. Cameron tried to push the blower away,\n\nbut it was too powerful. Then, he tried to reach for the cord to unplug the blower, but he could see that his arms were no longer skinny like they\n\nwere before. They looked swollen as if two large wasps stung them. He felt his legs becoming bigger, too. His belly was now the size of a large\n\nboulder, and it would not stop expanding. Cameron thought that with the amount of force that this blower had, he could not stop himself from\n\ngrowing fuller with air. He panicked as he thought he was going to burst. He kept struggling as he became the size of a compact car. In addition,\n\nhis paws were sunken into his puffed-up arms and legs, making them look like beach balls.\u0026nbsp;\n\nOh no! If this keeps up, I'm going to explode into pieces! he thought as he was expanding\n\nmore and more. Eventually, his jumpsuit could not stretch anymore, and the seams broke a section at a time. The seams from the arms broke first,\n\nand then the entire jumpsuit was slowly coming off, revealing Cameron's now-massive frame. The wind from the exhaust of the blower blew over\n\nthe now exposed fur. He tried to flail and get himself away from the blower, but he was making it worse. The more he moved, the more the tube of\n\nthe blower pushed into his snout. After the last seam on the jumpsuit tore, the fabric floated down and fell apart. The influx of air in his buttocks made\n\nthem look plump. Air expanded into his entire body and almost engulfed his head as well, so he no longer had a neck. After a few minutes of inflation,\n\nCameron was the size of a semi-truck. Eventually, he could see above the trees and the roof of his hut.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\nThis situation is unfortunate. I can't feel anything on the ground now. Am I...floating? he\u0026nbsp;\n\nasked himself. He was so full of air that he was like a balloon that was trying to float away. Despite this, the blower was affixed to his snout and was\n\nnow also in the air. The electrical cord for the blower was long enough to be in the air with Cameron. His butt cheeks looked like two giant, swollen\n\npumpkins. He realized his behind was becoming inflated more than any other part of his body because he felt himself rotating in the air, facing the\n\nground. He was now the size of a hot air balloon shaped like a large butt.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\nI can see the ground now. Likely means that my bottom has more hot air, he pondered.\u0026nbsp;\n\nAs Cameron took in more air, his buttocks looked rotund, like two separate hot-air balloons. At that point, he regretted purchasing the blower and wished\n\nhe had used the non-functioning rake instead. There was still some slack in the cord for the blower, as it was not entirely off the ground. He also thought\n\nthat the generator would also run out of power, but then he realized he had fully charged it the night before when he visited the city, and the charge could\n\nlast up to twenty hours.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\nSoon I will end up in outer space! Cameron thought. He amused himself with that notion,\u0026nbsp;\n\nbut realistically, he would prefer not to be sent into the heavens by a leaf blower. A few minutes went by and some of the cord unraveled and left the\n\nground.\u0026nbsp; This made him think that eventually, the cord would be unplugged, but then he would fall to the ground and it might injure him greatly. There\n\nwas still a lot of cord left to be unraveled, and he was already so high in the sky. At that point, he would rather stay in the air than become a pile of broken\n\nbones. Cameron's cheeks were now puffing up with air as most of his body was full of it, and they began to block his sight. Eventually, he thought, his\n\ncheeks would block his entire face, leaving him to figure out whether he would make it out of this situation alive or not.\u0026nbsp;\n\nThen, Cameron thought he could use his nose to puff out air just a little at a time, so he\u0026nbsp;\n\ncould at least see what was going on. However, it was not working. The blower's cord was unnecessarily long that Cameron went through Mobius' atmosphere,\n\nand was now floating in space. He could see Mobius before his big cheeks completely covered his vision. Seeing the oceans, forests, clouds, and colossal robotic\n\ncities atop the planet was incredible to Cameron. Suddenly, he jerked in the air, feeling as if he were being tethered like a balloon. At that point, he was the\n\nsize of a commercial-use blimp. He floated back down through the atmosphere's barrier as the cord jerked him back down.\u0026nbsp;\n\nAm I going to fall now, or will I explode? Cameron asked himself, feeling anxious. The\u0026nbsp;\n\nblower's plug slowly wriggled out with the force of Cameron floating in the air. It finally disconnected itself from the generator, turning off the blower.\n\nThe blower could not hold itself up anymore. It dropped to the ground and came out of Cameron's snout. The air quickly whooshed out of Cameron and\n\nhe flew through the sky. A whistling noise sounded in the area, and the pitch was getting lower the longer he zipped through the air. He went in circles,\n\ndropped a few feet down, and was decreasing in size as the air left his body. The unbelievably inflated Cameron was deflating like a balloon losing its air,\n\nsince he had become one thanks to the powerful leaf blower, which finally made its way to the ground, and it looked damaged.\u0026nbsp;\n\nAhh! Help me! Anybody! Cameron screamed internally. The more air that came out, the\u0026nbsp;\n\nfaster he deflated. Eventually, Cameron could see his surroundings with all the air leaving his face, and he could now move his arms and legs. He could\n\nsee his home and forest, but only briefly, as he flew by. He was going toward the edge of the atmosphere. However, now that he could control his body,\n\nhe instead moved his head to face toward the sky, and he plummeted toward the ground. His body was still fairly plump, like a giant donut, and he landed\n\non the ground with a big thud. It did not hurt him since his large behind took most of the damage. Then, Cameron slowly forced out the rest of the air with\n\nhis lungs and deflated to his normal size.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Finally, it's over,\" he said, sighing happily. He looked down at himself, seeing that he\u0026nbsp;\n\nwas wearing only strips of his torn jumpsuit. He was naked.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"Oh no!\" Cameron shouted, blushing in embarrassment. He rushed into his home\u0026nbsp;\n\nand put on another jumpsuit. After putting on his clothes, he looked out the window, and it was dusk. It was also getting windy, with dark clouds blocking\n\nthe shining moon. Sadly, this meant that more loose leaves would fall off of the trees and onto the ground, and Cameron would have to blow them away\n\nagain. Frustrated, he waited out the storm before blowing the leaves from his property again. It was now nighttime, and the dark clouds faded away, revealing\n\nthe moon glowing from above. Cameron decided he would wait until morning to do the work, and he relaxed in his bed until falling asleep.\u0026nbsp;\n\nAs the sun's gaze shone through the forest, Cameron woke up to get started with blowing\u0026nbsp;\n\nthe leaves once again. He walked to where the blower was left after yesterday's debacle. He grunted angrily, remembering that the blower fell onto the\n\nground and looked damaged. But he turned it on anyway, thinking it was dead. Even though it fell several hundred feet to the ground, it was still functioning.\n\nThe whirring noise was still loud, and it felt like it had as much power as it did the previous day.\u0026nbsp;\n\n\"I guess this blower was worth it. I don't have to shelve out a lot of money for\u0026nbsp;\n\nanother one,\" Cameron said. He blew the leaves from his yard once again. After he was done, he left the blower out and running, and then walked to the\n\ngenerator, carefully avoiding the cord so he would not trip again. However, Cameron made a mistake before walking away. He pointed the blower away\n\nfrom him, so the force of the air made the blower come toward him instead. The cord tangled around Cameron's legs, making him trip. The blower\n\nwas jolted around from Cameron tripping over its cord, and then the nozzle of the blower landed right next to him, just inches away from his snout.\u0026nbsp;\n\nPhew, that was close. Cameron thought. Then he took a deep breath and closed his\u0026nbsp;\n\neyes, thinking he was safe from being inflated. Suddenly, the blower moved forward and stuffed itself into Cameron's maw. He was expanding\n\nwith air once again.\n\nHe said to himself, Not again! \u0026nbsp;\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Short Stories","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1765974-a-fun-night-in-anima-city-by-alpha-wolfio.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/1911997-new-dawn-part-1-by-alpha-wolfio.json"}}
