Teacher's Pets

(BiggerBetterBarbie)

The bells ringing outside was music to Usagi Tsukino's ears. That sound at that particular time of day meant it was the end of the school day and time to go home. As Usagi walked down the hallway, she was met up with her good friend, Naru Osaka.
"Hey, Usagi!" Naru shouted.
"Oh! Hey, Naru." Usagi said.
"Let me guess, you got another 30 on the last test?" Naru asked.
"(sigh) I wonder how Mom's going to react this time." Usagi said.
"Awwww… come on, you know the drill. She'll eventually recover and make you a nice cake afterwards." Naru said.
"Yeah, I guess you're right." Usagi said.
"I'm always right and you know it!" Naru said.
"Anyway, what are you doing next?" Usagi said.
"Oh, I was thinking I'd go see Masato Sanjouin again. Maybe he could give me a tennis lesson or two…" Naru said with a light blush on her face.
"Hmmm… I see." Usagi said.

Just then, the two girls stopped walking when Umino came running to a stop in their path.
"Greetings, ladies!" Umino said, causing Naru and Usagi to take a couple steps backwards and briefly drop their bags full of school books.
"Eeeeeek! Umino, how many times do I have to tell you not to sneak up on us like that!?" Usagi shouted.
"Hoho, sorry, but I wanted to catch you two before you left the school! Can you come with me to the chemistry lab? My friend, Kensuke, is on the verge of a scientific breakthrough!" Umino said.
"Wait… THAT Kensuke? The weirdo who likes to stare at girls instead of the chalkboard?" Naru said.
"What did he claim to invent this time?" Usagi said.
"Oh, it's real this time, ladies! Come on!" Umino said as he grabbed a hand each from Usagi and Naru, tugging them along.
"Alright, alright! Easy with the tugging, Umino!" Naru said as the three went down another hallway.

Eventually, Umino opened up the door to one of the chemistry labs. He, Usagi, and Naru walked inside and saw another glasses-wearing male with several beakers full of different colored liquids, some of them shooting steam that quickly vaporized in the air.
"Kensuke! Here they are!" Umino said.
"Oh! Awesome, Umino! Usagi, Naru, thanks for coming." Kensuke said.
"Hello, Kensuke." Usagi said.
"Like we had much choice." Naru said as she glared briefly over at Umino, who simply rubbed the back of his head and laughed.
"Now then, you three are about to witness the greatest scientific breakthrough in the history of middle school!" Kensuke said as he pointed up in the air and his glasses shined to reflect the ceiling lights. Naru was already trying to hold back a giggle.
"What is it, this time, Kensuke? Have you found a cure for the cooties?" Naru said.
"Even better! Once I've combined all these liquids at the precise amounts, I will have created an invisibility potion! Observe with this small sample I've created." Kensuke said as he took a small tube nearby and squeezed a drop of the liquid inside on a nearby pencil. The four watched as it seemingly vanished into thin air, although they didn't realize that it had shrunk to a microscopic size.

"Yay! Fantastic, Kensuke!" Umino said as he clapped his hands. Usagi and Naru also clapped their hands, albeit very slowly.
"Yeah, real great!" Usagi said. She and Naru giggled once more.
"What's so funny, ladies?" Kensuke asked.
"Oh, it's nothing. Nothing at all, Kensuke." Usagi said.
"Although I'd like to see where the hidden camera is!" Naru said.
"Okay, go ahead and laugh if you must. But this isn't a magic show, no siree! Once I've finished the final formula, we'll all be walking around the school like we're ghosts!" Kensuke said. The girls continued to giggle and made little effort to hide such.
"Okay, okay. Whatever you say, Kensuke. Go ahead and proceed." Usagi said. Kensuke did just that as he moved rapidly around the table mixing up potions.
"Alright then, the Meteorillium goes to the Collapsium. The Feminum goes to the Timonium…" Kensuke said as he spewed out random element names while mixing up the potions.
"Ummm… you know what you're doing, right, Kensuke?" Usagi asked.
"Of course, Usagi! Science never makes a mistake!" Kensuke said. Usagi and Naru rolled their eyes as they kept watching the potion being put together by Kensuke.

But it was when he mixed a blue-green potion into the main container that something went very wrong. A huge cloud of smoke formed inside the beaker and was shooting outward. Usagi, Naru, and Umino all thought this was all part of the mixing and matching.
"Whew… I just love a good plume of smoke whether it's in or out of Chemistry class!" Umino said.
"Yeah, even I have to admit it looks cool." Usagi said. Kensuke, however, was not looking so hot.
"Ummm… something's wrong! That was definitely not supposed to happen!" Kensuke said. Very quickly the lab began to fill with the multi-colored smoke from the beaker, leaving no time for the four teenagers to get out of the way.
"*cough cough cough* What the heck!?" Naru shouted as she coughed almost in rhythm with the others.

What the four didn't realize was that they were shrinking and shrinking fast. Along with the clothes they were wearing, they all got smaller and smaller until they were all the way down to two inches tall. Finally, the smoke was completely gone and the four were able to see and breathe again.
"Is everyone okay?" Umino said.
"*cough* I'm fine. I'm surprised we didn't pass out from inhaling too much smoke!" Naru said. Usagi was the first to look around and see how different everything looked.
"Uh… guys? Where are we?" Usagi said. The ceiling was much farther upwards than before, and chairs, stools, and tables all looked much larger than usual.
"Wait… this looks like the Chemistry lab if our heads were on the floor." Umino said. But finally the four put the pieces together.
"OH NO! WE'VE SHRUNK!!!" they all shouted at the same time.
"How the heck is this possible!?!?" Naru screamed as she quickly moved her head around, not believing what had just happened to her and the others.
"Now now, Naru. Just calm down…" Umino said as he tried to grab the girl, only for her to push him back.
"Calm down!? CALM DOWN!!? We're probably smaller than bugs! How am I supposed to talk with Masato Sanjouin now!?" Naru shouted. Usagi hated to see Naru acting like this, and she walked right to the one man responsible, grabbing Kensuke by his shirt.
"Oooooooh! This is all your fault, Kensuke! You've fallen on your face with these experiments before, but this one takes the cake!!! Mmmm… triple chocolate fudge cake." Usagi said as she was first mad and then licking her lips, salivating at the thought of even a crumb of said cake being as big as a three-course dinner.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, everyone! Obviously I mixed together too much of two of those elements." Kensuke said.
"You can fix it, right, Kensuke?" Umino asked.
"Of course! Of course! I think I can reverse the process by mixing together the elements backwards. Although…" Kensuke said.
"Although what?" Naru asked.
"Although I'm going to need a really, REALLY tall ladder to reach the top of that table." Kensuke said.
"Ugh… and even then, we're just way too small. You couldn't lift even one test tube, not even an empty petri dish!" Naru said.
"Naru's right, Kensuke. We're going to need to get help from someone." Umino said.
"But who?" Usagi asked.
"Well, from one of the students… who else? Hopefully there are still a few in the hallway." Umino said.
"*gulp* That could be dangerous! We're so small, we could easily get mistaken for bugs if we're even noticed by anyone!" Kensuke said.
"Well, I sure as heck am not staying here! The sooner we get back to normal size, the better!" Naru said as she ran off towards the gigantic door that would lead everyone out of the lab.
"Hey, Naru! Wait for us!" Umino said as he, Kensuke, and Usagi all quickly followed. The door was not a problem for the four, as they were so small they could easily crawl underneath the opening between the floor and the bottom of the door.

As soon as the four made it out of the Chemistry lab and into the hallway, they immediately realized just how incredibly large the rest of the world had gotten. The hallway seemed to stretch on like an endless field of grass in an undeveloped area. And, of course, there were the few teenage men and women walking back and forth that absolutely towered over the four. In fact, there was a loud boom as one girl stepped within inches of where the four stood, unaware of course they were down there.
"My gosh… it's like stepping into a fairy tale world, where everyone is bigger than you and you feel so powerless…" Kensuke started to say, only to get bumped in the chest by Naru.
"Which is exactly why we need to get someone to help us, pronto! Hey! Down here!!!" Naru said as she jumped up and down trying to get someone's attention, but nobody responded. Naru quickly got frustrated and walked further out into the hallway.
"HEY! Look down here! Help us!!!" Naru said. Again, there was no response. In fact, the girl that was fast approaching was about to slam her shoe down on top of Naru!
"Eeek! Stooooooop!!!" Naru said as she pleaded for the giantess not to crush her, even though such a plea fell on deaf ears. Luckily, Umino came to the rescue and pulled Naru out of the way, saving the girl from being crushed.
"Naru! Don't do that! That was cutting it waaaaaaaay too close!" Usagi said.
"I'm sorry, Usagi. It's hard to think straight when I'm this tiny." Naru said.
"I'm just glad you're not hurt, Naru. I don't know what I could've done without you." Umino said. He flashed a smile over at the girl to show that he really cared for her safety, but Naru just brushed it off.
"Yeah, okay. Don't push your luck, Umino." Naru said.
"Listen, everyone. We need to try a different approach… like finding some higher ground. We're never going to get someone's attention down here!" Kensuke said.
"But what can we use?" Usagi asked.
"I don't know… let's just run down the hallways until we find something." Kensuke said. After another teenage girl came within inches of stomping the four shrunken people, Kensuke made another suggestion.
"And stay as far away from the center of the hallway as possible…" Kensuke said. With that, the four tucked themselves as far to the wall as they could. Still, they kept a close watch to make sure nobody would come close to stepping on them.

The four ran for what felt like several minutes. To a normal-sized human, it would be about 20 steps to the next classroom door, but to the four shrunken teens, they weren't even halfway to that door. They looked up at a few more giant students walking by, including one who took the time to hug and kiss each other in the hallway. The girl dropped her bag almost on top of the four.
"Hey! Watch where you're making out, you two!" Usagi shouted.
"Um… Usagi, they can't hear us, remember?" Naru said.
"You know, the view is not so bad from down here." Umino said as he tried to take a peek underneath the giantess's skirt, only to get pulled by the ear by Naru.
"There are mature women present, you know!" Naru said with anger in both her face and voice. Usagi and Kensuke couldn't help but giggle as they watched Naru berate Umino.
"You know, I have a feeling they'll make a fine couple someday." Kensuke said.
"Huh? Why do you say that?" Usagi asked.
"Often it's the couple that hates each other that winds up falling in love someday." Kensuke said. Usagi raised an eyebrow.
"Is all your logic this backwards, Kensuke?" Usagi said as she then rolled her eyes.

The four were about a football field's length away from the next classroom door, but they paused their walk when they saw the door open up. Two giant people came out, a young man as well as a much older woman. Naru was the first to recognize the woman.
"Oh, look! We must be at Miss Haruna's room!" Naru said.
"Wow… the height difference between her and that student makes her look REALLY big." Kensuke said.
"Ooooooh… I'm getting chills just thinking about that." Usagi said.
"Huh? What's there to be afraid of, Usagi?" Naru said.
"Think, Naru! If Miss Haruna were that big…" Usagi said, but stopped talking when she started to imagine it in her head. A city full of people running like crazy and alarms blaring off everywhere as a giant Miss Haruna stomped around the city, making sure to crush something with each and every step. Then she would stop walking and let out a roar that sounded exactly like Godzilla from the 1950s. Even worse, she would breath out fire that would burn several buildings to the ground.
But Usagi was soon snapped out of it by Kensuke.
"Usagi! Snap out of it! Look, you two may not… well… get along so well, but she may be our best chance to get us back to normal!" Kensuke said.
"He's right! She is a teacher, so she's smarter than all of us! And besides…" Umino said as he stared up her towering body.
"Besides WHAT, Umino?" Naru said.
"Er… nothing! Let's just get her attention pronto!" Umino said.

Meanwhile, Haruna patted the younger man on the shoulder.
"You did a good job, Tadasu. Remember to come back tomorrow at the same time for more of your mathematics tutoring." Haruna said.
"Thank you, Miss Haruna. I couldn't learn this stuff without your help." Tadasu said.
"Think nothing of it. We'll get through this together." Haruna said.
"Thank you again, Miss Haruna!” Tadasu said as he bowed his head and walked away. Haruna turned around and walked back into her classroom, unaware that four shrunken students were trying to keep up with her.
“Wow! She’s faster than I thought!” Usagi said.
“Well, of course she is! That’s because we’re only a couple inches tall compared to her!” Kensuke said as all four watched the giantess step up to her podium and sit down at her desk, looking down at some papers. She took a deep breath and started writing on them, which immediately told the teenagers that she was busy grading papers.
“Now’s our chance to get her attention! Come on!” Umino said. The group ran into the classroom and, a couple minutes later (although it felt like an eternity to them at their size), they made it to the platform where Haruna’s podium was. Of course, there was literally a big problem for the four. The normally 6-8 inch high platform looked probably 10 feet tall from their perspective.
“Ugh… how are we going to up that platform?” Naru asked.
“Quick, someone give me a boost. I’ll get to the top and then pick you all up from there.” Kensuke said. He started to put his shoes into Umino’s hands, but had to stop when Usagi pointed up behind them.
“Look out! Miss Haruna’s coming!” Usagi shouted. The four tucked themselves against the platform as they watched Miss Haruna plant one of her high heels just inches away from where they stood.

Just as Miss Haruna started to grade papers, she glanced up and saw a piece of paper rolled up into a ball. Haruna rolled her eyes as she got up from her chair.
“It never fails. Someone’s always playing ‘toss the paper ball into the bucket’ in my classroom.” Haruna said as she walked down from the platform and approached the paper ball. She reached down and picked it up, throwing it underhanded into the nearby trash bin. As she started to walk back to her desk, the teenagers saw this as their opportunity to hitch a ride on one of her feet.
“Hurry! Let’s all jump on!” Umino suggested as he made the leap onto one of Haruna’s dark pink shoes. The other three teens followed suit, and they all held on tight as Haruna stepped onto the platform and sat back down in her chair.
“Well now, that wasn’t so bad!” Kensuke said.
“Are you kidding!? What if we missed the jump? We could’ve been stepped on and killed!” Naru said.
“Well, we’re here now. Come on!” Umino said. He then walked up to Haruna’s ankle.
“Umino! Where are you going!?” Naru shouted.
“What else? I’m going to climb Miss Haruna’s leg. Eventually I want to get to the desk so I can get her attention.” Umino said.
“Umino’s right. We have to get even closer. There’s no way Miss H can hear us from down here.” Kensuke said.
“Waaaaaah! But I hate PE! Isn’t there some other way we can get her attention!?” Usagi said.
“We’re open to suggestions, Usagi!” Naru said as she, Umino, and Kensuke all stared at Usagi.
“Let’s climb up her leg.” Usagi said. With all four teens in agreement, they walked up to Miss Haruna’s skin and got to climbing.

The teens were lucky Miss Haruna had so many papers to grade, as it felt like an eternity as far as how long they had been climbing up the teacher’s right leg. They breathed a sigh of relief as they made it past her knee and to the upper half of her leg, which was essentially a flat surface for them to rest on.
“Whew… huff puff… I’ll never look at mountain climbing the same way again.” Naru said. Usagi then watched as Umino laid on his back with his hands behind his head.
“Huh? Umino? What are you doing?” Usagi asked.
“Well, I figured I’d relax for a bit. You have to admit the skin on Miss Haruna’s leg feels nice and soft.” Umino said.
“Yeah… he brings up a good point. I wonder if she’s been working out.” Kensuke said as he rubbed his shoes on the skin he was standing on. Naru had an unpleasant look on her face.
“Umino! This is no time to be laying around! The sooner we get big again, the better!” Naru said.
“Naru’s right! I hate being this tiny! We need to get Miss Haruna’s attention on the double!” Usagi said.
“Okay, okay, you’re right.” Umino said.
“We just gotta get up to the desk somehow. If we climb up her clothes and then run down her arm, we can get there!” Kensuke said.
“Are you sure? It sounds dangerous!” Naru said.
“Not as dangerous as being on the floor and being bug food! Eeeeeep!” Usagi said.

The four teenagers got to work climbing up Miss Haruna’s dark pink outfit. It took them a few minutes, but they eventually made it to the bottommost button on her shirt. Usagi looked up and saw how much more they had to climb… it was a long way up to her arm.
“Oy… I don’t know how much more of this climbing I can handle.” Usagi said.
“We can’t give up now, Usagi. We have to keep moving.” Naru said. Just then, however, the four had to hold on very tight as Haruna got up from her chair and stretched. She turned her stomach so quickly, it was becoming hard for the four to keep their grip.
“Eeeeeek! I can’t hold on!” Usagi screamed. Finally, all four lost their grip and went falling.
“AAAAAAHHHHH!!!” all four shouted until they landed with a thud. They looked around quickly to see where they landed.
“Hey! What luck! We’re on top of the desk!” Kensuke said.
“Whew! What timing! Had we been lower on her dress, we probably would’ve fallen back down to the floor.” Umino said.
“Oooooooh… we may be on the desk, but that was a rough landing.” Naru said as she rubbed her behind, even as Usagi helped her on her feet.
“Who cares!? We gotta get Miss H’s attention!” Usagi said.
“Wait! Let’s stand on this paper! She’ll have a better chance of seeing us.” Kensuke said as he jumped onto the white paper that Miss Haruna had been grading. The other three did the same. Even as the giantess was not looking at her desk at the moment, reaching into her bag to get a bottle of water, the four teens got to shouting.
“Miss Haruna! Miss Haruna!!” the four shouted.

After Miss Haruna took a sip of water, she then looked around the room as she could hear faint sounds of people calling her name.
“Huh? Maybe I’ve been working too hard today. It’s like there’s tiny people in my head calling out my name.” Haruna said. As she sat back down in her chair, the teacher finally set her sights on the papers on her desk, where she saw faint specks on the corner of the paper. She leaned in to get a closer look, and the screams got louder and clearer. As she got closer, she started to recognize some of the voices.
“Wait… I know those voices…” Haruna said. Finally, she leaned in until one of her green eyes was about six inches away from the four shrunken teens. Usagi and Kensuke fell back from the shock of seeing an eyeball that close, but Naru and Umino kept jumping up and down and waving their arms. Finally, Haruna leaned back and gasped in shock.
“Usagi? Naru? Umino? Kensuke!?” Haruna shouted. The teens pumped their fists in relief that the giantess had spotted them, and watched as she leaned back in.
“Miss Haruna! Help us!” Usagi shouted.
“What happened to you four!?” Haruna said.
“Kensuke was trying to make some new potion, and it blew up in our faces. Next thing we knew, we were all shrunken to this size!” Naru said.
“Kensuke, huh? I should’ve known. How many times do I have to tell you to stop blowing up the Chemistry lab!?” Haruna said as she suddenly went into teacher mode and had an unhappy face.
“I’m sorry, Miss Haruna! I promise I won’t do it again! Can you just take us back to the lab so I can work on an antidote?” Kensuke said.

Miss Haruna didn’t say anything at first. She stared… and stared… and stared. A smile was slowly forming on her face. But first, she wanted to get them off her desk.
“Okay, hop on.” Haruna said as she held a hand out in front of the four. They all jumped on and slid down her giant finger, landing in the palm of the giantess’s hand. Haruna then moved the hand up to her face and revealed a secret she had been keeping her whole life.
“Actually, before we do that, I… I would like to keep you all for a little while.” Haruna said.
“Huh? What are you saying, Miss Haruna?” Naru asked.
“I have this obsession with tiny-sized people. I would like nothing better than to take you four home and keep you all as my pets! Heeheehee!!” Haruna said.
“WHAT!?” Usagi, Naru, and Kensuke all shouted. Curiously, there was no reaction out of Umino. He was mostly busy staring up at Miss Haruna’s giant face.
“Now then, you four can wait here until we get home!” Haruna said as she walked over to her bag. She opened up one of its pockets and dropped the four inside, leaving them screaming for their lives once more. Once they landed, Usagi pleaded for mercy.
“Miss H! You can’t do this! This is kidnapping! Somebody help us! WAAAAAAAH!!!” Usagi shouted as she let loose with the ear-piercing crying.
“Ack! Usagi, stop crying! Not in here!!!” Naru shouted as she tried her best to calm Usagi down.

Miss Haruna, meanwhile, was suddenly in a cheerful mood as she gathered up all her papers and threw them in the bag (another pocket so that the four shrunken teens wouldn’t be crushed). She then picked up her bag and made her way out of the school and eventually into her car.

About 15-20 minutes later, Miss Haruna was back home. She picked up her bag and then walked into her home. Once she sat down on a nearby couch, she opened up the pocket she had been keeping the shrunken teens in and flipped it upside down, dropping all of them on the table in front of her. Usagi, Naru, Umino, and Kensuke all had to adjust their vision from the sudden change between dark and light, not to mention the second rough landing they had to go through, but they all eventually turned and looked up at a very happy and, of course, very big Miss Haruna.
“Welcome to my home, kids! I hope the journey was a pleasant one.” Haruna said.
“I'm not sure I would call it first class, Ms. Haruna!" Naru shouted.
"Oh, whatever. It'll have to do given the circumstances." Haruna said.
"Um... Ms. H... how long are you going to keep us?" Kensuke said.
"Yeah! I mean... my Mom knows I wouldn't be in detention THIS long!" Usagi said. Miss Haruna then leaned in as close as she could to the kids, their huge face scaring the daylights out of them!
"I will decide how long this 'detention' lasts, understand?" Haruna said. Three of the four kids nervously shook their heads yes. The only one that didn't, strangely enough, was Umino. Unknown to the other kids, he was actually smiling. There was something about a giant Miss Haruna that he was taking great delight in watching. Still, he and the others watched as Miss Haruna got up from the couch. She then reached down and picked up the four, holding them against her face.
"So now that we're all alone in my house, how about we conduct some experiments? I've always wanted to play science teacher!" Haruna said. She then set the four down on the wooden floor and then put her hands on her hips.
"Let's see how fast and far you all can run when I'm trying to step on you. With my bare feet too!" Haruna said with a wry smile on her face. She then slipped her feet out of her high heeled shoes, kicking them behind her.
"But but but but Miss Haruna!" Usagi shouted, trying to plead with the giantess.
"Get moving, everyone!" Haruna said as she lifted up one of her feet, giving the four a good look at her sole.
"Eeeeps!" all four shouted as they got to running just as the teacher softly planted one of her feet inches away from them.

For the next couple minutes, Haruna very slowly followed the kids, watching as they took turns as to who was leading the pack because the running speeds fluctuated between the four. Of course, to encourage them to run faster, Haruna made sure each of her steps inched closer and closer to them. She couldn't help but giggle watching the four run like crazy.
"Haha! This is too fun! It's like being hundreds of feet tall and walking down the road, watching people run from my giant feet so they don't get stepped on..." Haruna said as she briefly imagined that possibility, but quickly shifted back to focus on the four shrunken teens. One of them, in particular, was falling way behind and it didn't surprise the teacher who it was.
"Huff puff huff puff... I can't... go on... any... further..." Usagi said as she collapsed on her knees and tried hard to catch her breath. In the meantime, one of Haruna's feet was about to come right down on Usagi.
"Usagi!" Naru shouted as she watched in horror that one of her best friends was about to be crushed flat. But instead, Miss Haruna stopped and pulled her foot back. Then she laughed.
"Hahahaha! I knew you'd finish in last place, Usagi! Don't think I haven't been peeking out the window when you're outside for PE class!" Haruna said. She reached down and gently picked up Usagi, placing her inside her dress but in front of her light pink undershirt. Usagi held on tight to keep from falling inside the article of clothing.
"You wait here until I catch the other three." Haruna said as she got back to walking after the others, who got back to running when they saw the giantess coming for them again.

But after a couple more minutes of chasing, Haruna finally had enough and she took a firm step forward, planting one of her bare feet in front of the three kids and stopping them in their tracks.
"Hahaha! Looks like I won this round." Haruna said. She reached down and picked up Umino, Naru, and Kensuke, then she pulled Usagi out from her hiding place, and she sat back down on the couch holding the four kids up to her face.
"Well now, wasn't that fun? I haven't had this much fun since my university days!" Haruna said.
"Fun!? No offense, Miss Haruna, but you could've killed us!" Naru said.
"Oh, quit complaining. Nobody got hurt and that's the most important thing. In fact, I think you'll like my next 'homework assignment' better." Haruna said. She then placed the two-inch-tall teenagers in front of her bare feet, wigging her toes in front of them.
"I've been walking around a lot today. I demand a nice foot massage!" Haruna said.
"Awww...!!" Usagi lamented as she looked over the size of the foot. Umino on the other hand did not hesitate.
"Yes, Miss Haruna! Right away!" Umino shouted as he climbed atop the giantess teacher's right foot and got to rubbing. The other teenagers got to work hopping on the same foot and rubbing it as best as they could with their tiny hands.
"And don't forget between the toes!" Haruna shouted.

For the next several minutes, Haruna sat back and took in the miniscule pressings from the hands and feet of the tiny teenagers as they rubbed the giant foot as much as they could. Eventually, Haruna felt satisfied with their work.
"Haha! Good job. Now for between my toes." Haruna said as she tilted her foot forward, causing the four to tumble in between the toes. Already the smell from between the giantess's toes was overpowering.
"Ugh... and I thought Shingo's dirty underwear was foul-smelling enough!!" Usagi shouted.
"P.U.! What a horrible smell!" Naru shouted.
"Whew... even I can't take this stuff!" Kensuke said.
"Let's just grin and bear it, everyone. If it will make Miss Haruna happy..." Umino said with a smile as he got to rubbing the area between Haruna's big toe and the toe next to it.
"Wow... at least somebody is having a good time." Naru said as she rolled her eyes.

And so for the next several minutes, the four shrunken teens went from between toe to toe, cleaning the spaces as much as they could and trying not to suffocate from the lack of clean air in the process. They couldn't stop to take any breaks, as Haruna would wiggle one of her toes, threatening to bring them down (with a giggle) if they stopped. Finally they rubbed the pinky toe and collapsed in exhaustion, all while Miss Haruna smiled.
"Haha! Good job everyone. You get 100 out of 100 for effort... even you, Usagi. Now there's a miracle!" Haruna said, not used to giving Usagi a high mark on anything! The four were too tired to say anything from all that rubbing, but that didn't stop the teacher from making them massage one more part of her feet.
"Don't relax yet, my pupils. Now you've got to rub the bottom of my feet." Haruna said.
"WHAT!?" all four teens shouted, but then they watched as Haruna leaned down and scooped them up in her hand. She placed them back on the table, doing the same thing with both her feet, proudly showing off their soles.
"Alright then, hop to it you four!" Haruna said. The four were barely moving, still trying to recover from all that rubbing they did between her toes. The giantess was not amused with their slow movement.
"Come on, chop chop! Otherwise I'll have to punish you for this offense." Haruna said. That's when she reached inside her bag and pulled out a pencil.
"You all better watch out before you get poked on!" Haruna said. She lanced the lead tip of the pencil towards Naru first, lightly jabbing her in the chest and causing her to fall backwards.
"Ow! Hey! Miss Haruna!" Naru shouted as she backed away to keep from getting poked again. Haruna just laughed as she moved onto Usagi, Umino, and then Kensuke, poking them and knocking them backwards as well.
"Okay, okay! Stop, Miss H! We'll rub your soles right away!" Kensuke said.
"That's a good little young man. Heeheehee! That was so much fun! Having tiny people in my house is soooooooo much fun..." Haruna said as she put the pencil away and put her feet back on the table. The four shrunken teens wasted no time in getting to rubbing the skin on the bottom of Miss Haruna's feet.

Again, the process took several minutes, and yet the teens were nowhere close to being done. The four really had to rub hard just so Miss Haruna could feel their tiny movements. Even though they still had plenty more ground to cover, Haruna felt satisfied and moved her feet away.
"Okay, you can stop now. My feet feel refreshed and alive again thanks to you four." Haruna said.
"That's... *huff puff*... great... Miss H... but when... can... we... find out how to return to normal?" Naru asked.
"Now now, let's not end my dream that's become a reality so soon!" Haruna said. Usagi let out the waterworks.
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!! Don't tell us we have to massage your fingers now!!!" Usagi shouted.
"Hahaha! Not a bad idea, but actually that would be too cruel. Come on, Usagi, you should be lucky I didn't poke you further with the pencil. Actually, you should be lucky I didn't sweep you four away." Haruna said.
"Huh? Sweep us away?" Naru said.
"Yeah, like this!" Haruna said. That's when she turned to where her backside was facing the four. Then she tilted her head back and let her long brown hair down on the table. She moved it across the table like a rag to a dirty floor. The four shrunken teens gasped in horror as they watched the giant head of hair fast approaching.
"Run!!!" Naru shouted as she and the others ran as fast as they could from the hair. Alas, it caught up to them fast and knocked them down face first on the table, trapping them underneath the hair like they were stuck under a blanket. But they weren't trapped for long as Miss Haruna eventually pulled her hair back. She looked down at the teens and laughed.
"Hahaha! That was too much fun! I always wonder why more giant women in science fiction don't use their hair more often." Haruna said with a smile.

However, that smile quickly went away when she saw one of the teens was missing.
"Huh? Where did Umino go?" Haruna asked as she scanned the table from end to end, wondering where that young man scrambled off to. The teens helped the giantess out, however, when Kensuke looked up at Haruna's hair.
"Look! There he is, hanging onto one of your strands of hair!" Kensuke shouted. Miss Haruna grabbed many strands of her hair in her right hand and moved them in front of her face. There she saw Umino hanging on tight, and with a smile on his face.
"Umino! How did you get there!?" Haruna shouted.
"Haha! Easy, Miss Haruna. I grabbed onto your hair as you swept it across the table. May I say you look very nice from this angle." Umino said.
"Hoho... try not to flatter yourself, Umino. Remember that I'm the teacher and you're the student." Haruna said as she gently plucked Umino off her hair and placed him back down on the table with the other shrunken students.

Miss Haruna then checked the analog clock mounted on a nearby wall.
"Oh! I need to get back to reading my favorite romance novel." Haruna said.
"Huh? You read romance novels, Miss Haruna?" Kensuke asked.
"Of course! Who doesn't!? You four wait here. I'm going to get your new home." Haruna said. The teacher walked away from the living room, leaving the four to wonder what she had in mind.
A few minutes later, Miss Haruna finally came back. She was holding in her hands what looked like a hamster cage, complete with spinning wheel, hay on the floor, and water tank which was currently empty. The giant teacher opened up the cage from the top and then picked up the four students and dropped them inside the cage.
"Alright, you four can stay here for the time being. Once I've read enough of my book, we'll get back to having some fun! Heehee!" Haruna said through the rails of the cage. Then she walked away, eventually coming back with her novel and sitting herself fully across the couch.

For the next few minutes, Haruna read her book, although she was yawning a good deal like she was trying to stay awake. Naru, on the other hand, couldn't take being locked up in a hamster cage much longer. She grabbed two of the bars and yelled out across the gap from the table to the couch.
"Miss H! You can't keep us locked here forever! Our parents are probably looking for us by now! Please just let us go!!!" Naru said.
"Hey now! No talking while I'm reading!" Miss Haruna said as she looked over by the cage.
"No! I'm not going to shut up until I'm free again! This is not detention! This is more like a prison!!!" Naru said. Miss Haruna, however, just rolled her eyes and put her book down on the table and approached the cage.
"I said BE QUIET!" Haruna shouted as she opened up the cage and pinned Naru to the ground with one of her fingers.
"Or I'll make your 'detention' last a while longer." Haruna said before finally releasing her press on Naru. As the girl coughed for air, Miss Haruna looked at the finger she just used to hold Naru down.
"Hmmmm... that felt so good. Maybe I should keep them forever, provided they stay tiny." Haruna said with a laugh.

She looked down at Usagi and then at the spinning wheel and got an idea.
"Hmmm... Usagi, you're always complaining about being tired. Have you been working out lately?" Haruna asked.
"Um... no." Usagi said.
"Well, I think it's time we changed that. Get on that wheel!" Haruna said.
"Er... maybe we can talk about this, Miss H... I mean, I'm trying not to work out too hard and..." Usagi said as she tried to talk her way out of what the giant teacher was planning. Of course, Miss Haruna wasn't buying it, and she leaned in towards the cage with another executioner-type look on her face.
"I said GET ON THE WHEEL!" Haruna shouted.
"Meep!" Usagi said as she quickly jumped on the wheel.
"Good. Now get jogging like the little hamster you are!" Haruna said. Usagi took great offense at being called the 'hamster' but nevertheless followed the giantess's orders. She ran at a decent pace for almost a minute, but it wasn't enough to satisfy Miss Haruna.
"Oh come on, Usagi. You can run faster than that!" Haruna said. That's when she took hold of the wheel and cranked it forward at a much faster pace. Right away, it was too much for Usagi to handle.
"Whoawhoawhoawhoa!!!" Usagi screamed as she finally tumbled and went round and round with the wheel before finally landing on the hay. She wobbled around in dizziness as she looked up at the giant teacher.
"Good work, Usagi! Maybe you've lost 15 pounds just on that tumble alone! Hohoho!" Haruna laughed as she sat down and got back to reading her book.
"Ugh! That settles it! We need to break out of here and out of this house pronto!" Usagi shouted as she snapped out of the dizziness.
"I agree, Usagi, but maybe we should wait until Miss Haruna leaves the room and isn't watching us." Kensuke said. Usagi sighed and wondered how long that could be.

It turns out it would only be roughly 20-30 minutes, as Miss Haruna suddenly let out a big yawn and closed her book and placed it on the table.
"Wow... I'm so tired. I guess I'll take a short nap here. Yaaaaaaaawn..." Haruna said as she stretched and then closed her eyes, leaving one of her legs to hang off the couch.
"Oh, look! She's falling asleep!" Usagi said.
"That's great! But how will we get out of here?" Naru asked.
"Hey, guys! Over here! Look at these two bars." Umino said as the other students joined up with him. They eventually noticed the same thing the glasses-wearing young man already caught.
"Huh? Two of the bars are bent." Usagi said.
"I get it! We pull these bars apart and then we can slip out of this cage!" Kensuke said.
"It's worth a try..." Naru said.
"We're going to need all our strength working together." Umino said. He and Usagi grabbed the left bar while Naru and Kensuke took hold of the right bar.
"Hey, Usagi, does this mean we can go out on a date sometime?" Umino asked.
"Ugh! Get real, Umino!" Usagi shouted.
"Okay, everyone! Pull!" Kensuke said. All four students pulled with all their might to bend the bars.

A minute later, they were successful. The bars were bent with more than enough room for each of the shrunken students to make their way out of the cage.
"Woohoo! Freedom!" Usagi shouted.
"Shhhh... Usagi, don't wake up Miss H!" Naru said.
"Sorry. You know me, I have a loud mouth sometimes." Usagi said.
"That's a long way down... and given it's a wood floor, we probably wouldn't survive a jump from here." Kensuke said as he looked down from the edge of the table.
"True. Got any bright ideas, Umino?" Naru asked, only to not hear any response. In fact, when she turned around, Umino was not with the group.
"Huh? Where is Umino?" Naru asked. The three looked around until they finally spotted him. He was at the other end of the table, staring at Miss Haruna's giant body starting with her bare feet.
"What the!? What is he doing?" Usagi shouted.

Umino gazed upon the wondrous sight that was the giantess Miss Haruna. It seemed to be hitting him like a bullet train on how big she looked compared to his own size.
"Wow... Miss Haruna. You're hundreds of times more attractive when you're this big. I have to get a true sense of being tiny and explore you from head to toe." Umino said. He then made a bold leap off the table and fell down towards the foot that was hanging down from the couch. The three students watched in shock just as they finally caught up to where he was standing.
"Umino!" Usagi shouted.
"Ugh... I knew there was a perverted side to him!!!" Naru said, folding her arms in disgust.
"Sigh... we better follow him and make sure he doesn't do anything reckless." Kensuke said.
"What!? Can't we just leave him behind? We have to escape from the house and get help and..." Usagi said.
"No, Usagi. Kensuke's right. We shouldn't leave anyone behind. We need to stick together. And like Kensuke said, we should make sure he doesn't do anything silly." Naru said. The three students made the jump as well and landed with a resounding thud on top of Miss Haruna's left foot. They started climbing up the giantess's leg just like Umino had already started doing.

Umino scaled up Haruna's leg like it were a small mountainside. Thanks to her leg being a bit angled, the climb was not that hard. Once he made it past her knee, he was able to look out on the 'horizon' and see her face. Then he started walking up her leg. He was briefly bummed out when he couldn't see underneath her pink skirt, but thought it was for the best. He resumed his trek onto the giantess's clothing, although briefly had to stop when Miss Haruna slightly adjusted herself and her hand came down within inches of where he was standing.
"Whew... that was close. But look how soft and delicate her pinky finger is. She must be working out again." Umino said.
"Umino!" three voices shouted behind him. He turned around to see Usagi, Naru, and Kensuke approaching. The four met at the second button from the top of Miss Haruna's shirt.
"Umino, are you crazy!?" Naru shouted.
"No crazier than usual." Umino said with a smile on his face.
"Come on, Umino. The fun and games are over. We're getting out of here." Naru said.
"Alright, alright. I was hoping to climb up the chest..." Umino said.
"Come on, you dirty four eyes!" Usagi said as and Naru both grabbed an arm each of Umino's and dragged him back the way they came.

Unfortunately, they couldn't get far when they were suddenly trapped inside a giant hand. Their vision went totally dark as the hand closed up, but it was quickly back open, and the four kids were looking up at Miss Haruna, who was sitting back up on her couch.
"Soooo... you thought you could escape from me, could you? I could feel your tiny movements all the way down by my feet, Umino." Haruna said with a smile on her face. Naru then punched Umino hard behind the shoulder.
"Nice going, Romeo!" Naru said.
"Please, Miss Haruna! Don't punish us! We'll be totally good, tiny little itty bitty prisoners!" Usagi begged, literally getting down on her knees and placing her hands together.
"Hahaha! You look so cute when you beg, Usagi. If only I could make you do that without getting in trouble in the classroom!" Haruna said.

The teacher started to move her tiny captives back into their cage, but she stopped.
"No... I think I should give you four a more permanent home." Haruna said.
"Wha... what?" Kensuke asked. The giant teacher then licked her lips, which immediately gave them all a bad impression of what was coming next.
"WAAAAAAAAH!!! Don't eat us, Miss H! I'm too young to be eaten!!!" Usagi said.
"M...Miss H! You can't do this! It'll be murder!" Naru said.
"Not if nobody ever finds out. I'll truly miss you all, I will, but alas, the world is simply too dangerous at the size you're at. Trust me when I say this is for the best." Haruna said. She then opened her mouth wide, tilted her head back, and dropped the four kids from her hand.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!" all four screamed as they fell into the gaping hole that was Miss Haruna's giant open mouth.

"*GASP!!!*" Usagi gasped as she quickly sat back up. The scenery radically changed. They were no longer in Miss Haruna's home, but instead they were back at the Chemistry lab at the school. Usagi took a quick look around to confirm this.
"Huh? We're... we're back at the school?" Usagi said. Not only that, but the chairs and stools looked perfectly normal-sized. She wasn't as close to the floor as before and the ceiling wasn't so far away either.
"And we're back to normal..." Usagi said. Then she looked over at Naru, who was still laying down on the floor.
"Naru! Wake up, Naru!" Usagi said as she rubbed her friend's back. Naru finally got in a sitting position, as did Umino and Kensuke, which brought a breath of relief to Usagi.
"Whew... thank goodness you're all awake and okay!" Usagi said.
"Usagi? What happened?" Naru said.
"Yeah, the last thing I remember was the big smoke show when Kensuke mixed those two elements together." Umino said.
"Yeah, I guess I didn't mix the right chemicals together. Sorry about that." Kensuke said.
"Then it was all a nightmare..." Usagi said.
"Huh? What nightmare, Usagi?" Naru asked.
"Well... the smoke made us all incredibly tiny and we had to walk around the school without getting stepped on by the other students. We wound up getting Miss Haruna's attention, but she wanted to keep us as pets and she took us home and did all sorts of things... I tell you, it felt so real. Like it really really happened." Usagi said.
"Huh? That's strange. I had the exact same dream! I clearly remember screaming for my life as I was falling into her mouth like a potato crumb... *gulp*" Naru said as she tried to wipe the last part of that nightmare from her memory.
"Hohoho! What a strange and unusual dream! Everyone knows there's no such thing as a shrinking potion! That's pure fantasy!" Kensuke said.
"Heh, says the guy who said he could perfect an invisibility potion." Naru said as she tried to hold back a laugh. Umino quickly came to Kensuke's support.
"There there, Kensuke. I'm sure you'll get it next time." Umino said.
"Yeah, maybe. I know, I know, back to the drawing board. Just you three wait... I'll have my scientific breakthrough one day!" Kensuke said as he marched out of the lab.
"Don't worry, he'll recover. You know he often forgets what happened 24 hours ago." Umino said with a smile.
"Anyway, we better get home. I'm sure all our parents are worried. Right, Naru?" Usagi said as she and the other two students got up.
"You're right, Usagi." Naru said.

The three exited the lab and waved goodbye to Umino, who always went in a separate direction compared to Usagi and Naru.
"Say, Naru. Since we had the same nightmare... you don't suppose Miss Haruna really does like tiny people, do you?" Usagi said.
"Nah... that'd be too silly, especially for a woman her age!" Naru said. As the two ladies walked down the halls, they watched as Miss Haruna (looking normal-sized instead of gigantic like in their nightmares) came walking out of her classroom holding her bag. She bumped into one of the other students, who the girls recognized as a young man named Tadasu. The bump shook both people up and really shook Haruna's bag, causing a one-inch-tall plastic toy (resembling a man) to come falling out.
"Oh! I'm sorry, Miss Haruna!" Tadasu said as he bowed his head repeatedly.
"It's okay, Tadasu. I wasn't paying attention." Haruna said as she started to walk away. Tadasu, however, spotted the toy on the ground and picked it up.
"Miss Haruna! You dropped something from your bag!" Tadasu said as he ran up to the teacher to give her back the toy.
"Oh, thank you! This toy is very important to me." Haruna said.
"You have a good day, Miss Haruna." Tadasu said as he ran off away from the teacher and past Usagi and Naru, who were following without Miss Haruna knowing.

Miss Haruna then looked at the boy toy. She looked VERY closely, in fact... holding him up to her green eyes.
"Heehee... thought you could escape, teeny tiny man? The school day is now over, so now I get to take you home and you can keep me company as always! Sigh... if only it were realistic to shrink people..." Haruna said as she walked away like she was in a happy mood.

Usagi and Naru looked at each other with nervous laughs.
"Usagi... how about we go to Game Center and Fruits Parlor Crown and order some shakes?" Naru said.
"Yeah... I think that's a very VERY good idea." Usagi said as the two shook their heads, trying to think they didn't just see what they saw, and then walked out of the school.
