1. Ponyville University was a tough place to make your mark, you needed to be the best of the best, and then some more. For some it was three years of living the life of the popular ones, surrounded by other ponies, rarely ever having to lift a finger when it came to most school work. Unfortunately that was the very top of the social ladder, and each rung down meant you lost one of perks of the popular life. At the very bottom rung of the ladder, you find the people that have their own set of perks, which don’t really do much for them, but benefit others more. These are the people that keep to themself the ones that only belong with others of the same type. Most are intellectual, some are just anti-social, and it was one of these people that was about to have an extraordinary day.
3. Daisini was one of these ponies, she kept to herself, made sure that her enemies were kept well at bay with promises of homework answers, and spent most of her time working or theorising about new inventions or spells. The deepest corner of the library was her domain, and the halls underneath the University, was her workspace. She’d spent many an hour down there, and as a result almost missed a fair few of her classes. Not that it bothered her, she liked the quiet and calm that she found under the University, much better than a raucous classroom. There was really only one reason for her to go to class, and that was to catch a glimpse of Arcane Flash, the resident sporty mare. Daisini had developed strong feelings for Arcane Flash, but she’d never managed to find the time or the words to confess. At this moment, Daisini found herself daydreaming about her latest projects.
5. “Daisini? Daisini! Pay attention girl!”
7. The green and yellow unicorn snapped out of her daze, shaking her head as she came to realise where she actually was. She was sitting in the middle row of desks, the eyes of every other stallion and mare fixated firmly upon her. Her eyes shot open as she saw them all staring at her, a crimson blush covering her cheeks. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted Arcane Flash, gazing wistfully out of the window overlooking the grounds. Daisini blushed harder and lowered her head in apology. The lecturer sighed and carried on with her lesson, leaving Daisini with her head bowed awkwardly. Not that it was a problem for her, from this lower angle no-one could see that she was still eyeing up Arcane Flash. She couldn’t help but admire that purple coat, and those finely tuned athletic limbs. She was a tall, toned mare, and the subject of many an abstract daydream by Daisini. The class bell suddenly sounded and instantly everyone in the class instantly perked up.
9. “Ok class, before you go, I want you make a note that you should have read and understood the complete theories detailed in the book, there will be a test tomorrow morning,” explained the teacher.
11. Nobody in the class even paused; they just bolted for the door. A few of the more sensible students, such as Daisini and Arcane Flash took things slower. As the two prepped to leave, Daisini nipped in front of Arcane Flash and turned to face her.
13. “H-hey…”
15. “Uhm, hey?” replied Arcane Flash.
17. “So I-I was w-wondering…i-if…”
19. “Are you ok? You seem to be stuttering quite a bit….”
21. Daisini cursed in her head, this had all seemed so easy in practice, she’d worked out every variable, every possible combination of spoken words that could convey her feelings. Here she was stumbling through her sentence delivery, something she had deemed very important, especially when confessing feelings of love. Had she somehow gotten it wrong? Was her research misleading? She closed her eyes and scrunched up her face, she could still see Arcane Flash’s concerned expression, those sapphire eyes twinkling in the light. There was nothing left for it, she was going to have to go back to the drawing board and re-evaluate her performance and strategy.
23. “I-I gotta go!” exclaimed the unicorn.
25. With that, she turned tail and made for the door, she didn’t waste any time with stopping to answer Arcane’s call of ‘wait’. Instead, she found herself running straight into the rear end of the class bully, Broad Mason, a stallion Daisini had been well acquainted with. For years she’d put up with his constant taunts about her physical appearance, and her status as an intellectual. She’d put off most of what he said, tried her best to ignore him and his band of sneering cohorts. She psyched herself up for another encounter with him, mentally revisiting all his previous insults, all the previous gestures he had made. Mason swivelled on his hooves, and upon seeing Daisini, he cracked a smile that couldn’t get any wider.
27. “Well if it isn’t, Dai-baby…” chided Mason.
29. “I d-don’t have time for this, I-I need to get to the n-next class…” mumbled Daisini.
31. “Oh? What’re you gonna do there? Read all your science books? Take notes like a little nerd?” There came an array of guffaws from outside the classroom, most likely belonging to Mason’s inner circle.
33. “Y-yes I a-am. Th-that’s what you d-do in a class, M-M-Mason, you learn and revise, you’d know th-that if you actually p-paid att-tention…”
35. “Aww look at the little pony, getting all upset, are you gonna cry, little pony baby? You gonna run to your mummy? Huh?” continued Mason.
37. Daisini shoved past without replying and made her way to her next class, a class that she was thankful wasn’t shared with Broad Mason. She took up her seat at the desk, and immediately locked herself in her thoughts. Her mind drifted to the halls under the school, back to her secret lab, back to her inventions. What a peaceful place, so quiet, just her and her tools. A smile cracked its way along her face as she imagined herself putting her finishing touches to her latest device, The Emotive Expander. This thing would be certain to win her some awards, big, prestigious awards that would propel her to something of a celebrity in the science world. A device capable of expanding the emotive range of any living creature, even the most remote of individuals would benefit from this device. Though that wasn’t the only application of the device, along with the increase in emotive range, she had also programmed it to alter the pony body entirely.
39. Daisini wasn’t exactly renowned for her height, she came from a family of mares that were often considered unnaturally tall, even by pony standards, and she had sort of been the runt of the family. All through her life she had endured teasing at the hands of others for her height, and this addition to the device would soon be her solution to this. She’d show them all, once she would be up on that hypothetical stage, collecting her science award, standing tall and proud amongst the others. Those would be the days. It was at that point that Daisini realised something important, something that was going to have a dire impact on her plans.
41. The end of the year was fast approaching; she wasn’t going to get any other chances to profess her love to this mare, so she needed to work fast. After the class was over, she raced to her homely corner of the library and pulled around seventeen different books down from the shelves. The books swirled around her, flipping open to the correct pages, and as they passed her eyes, they skimmed further forward so they were in the right place for when they rolled back around. Her eyes worked furiously to take in all the information she required, from attractiveness spells, to heightened awareness. Also in the library was Arcane Flash still left somewhat confused about Daisini’s earlier behaviour. As she weaved through the maze of bookshelves, looking for the particular book that would hold the theories for her homework, she spotted Daisni sifting through her books. Indulging in a moment of madness, she took refuge behind a nearby bookcase and peered through the books at Dasini. The green and yellow unicorn was flipping through the pages of those books faster than most people at the school, it was quite the feat to behold. Then without warning, she dropped the books and let them clatter around her, some remained half open while the rest landed and shook themselves closed. Now she had the information she could put the finishing touches to her latest creation. She zipped past the bookcase that held the concealed Arcane Flash, and left the library at a brisk pace, so as not to draw too much attention.
43. Daisini approached the door leading to the halls underneath the school and paused for a moment, then slipped inside once the corridors had fallen silent. Arcane Flash took the same approach, pausing at the door, to give Daisini some time to get ahead of her, before she entered the hallways. She took care with her steps, muffling them as best she could as she looked to located Daisini, she caught sight of a hint of blue turn around a corner to her left. Realising it was her one and only lead, she followed the tail, peeking around the corner to catch sight of the green and yellow mare. Thankfully, Daisini had paused to fondle with a loose pebble that had embedded itself into her hoof.
45. “How can something so small cause such an emotive response?” pondered Daisini out loud, under the impression that she was alone here.
47. She pinged the pebble from her hoof and eased the afflicted hoof back onto the floor, and upon doing so, she continued onwards. Arcane Flash held back once more, peeping around the corner in case Daisini got out of sight. Her target made it about halfway down the hallway before ceasing her movements once more and turned to her right. There she extended her hoof, and created a rattling sound that echoed down the hallways. The rattling was soon replaced by a long and drawn out creaking, followed by what appeared to be a machine hum and the soft beeping of an instrument panel. As Daisini disappeared into what could only be an anteroom, Arcane Flash took her first steps to follow her.
49. Daisini closed the door behind her and crossed to a desk at the far corner of the room, upon which sat a small aerial. Up until now this small aerial was what had prevented her from completing her device, this was to be the body modifier. Every previous time she had attempted to utilise it, the machine had rejected it, but now she had researched a possible solution, and was confident that it could work. She levitated the aerial over to the left hand side of the room, where there sat a long slender object. The object appeared to be made of metal, with small wires and other loose materials poking of from inside. At the front of the device was another aerial, similar to the first one, except this one was for the emotive aspect of her creation. She used her magic to separate the second aerial, and bring it next to the first. From there she carefully began to telekinetically pull and twist the wirey frame of the aerial, and meshed the two together so that they formed one complex looking mess. After she was done with her tinkering, she replaced the now combined aerials into their relevant slots and took up the centre of the room.
51. Arcane Flash stood outside the door, debating about whether or not she should enter the room, it was of course Daisini’s place of refuge, and intruding on that would be bad. She resolved to look through the keyhole, just to see what was going on, maybe there was nothing to worry about. She bent her legs a little and peered towards the keyhole on the door, squinting so she could make out the image a lot better. There, at the centre of the room stood Daisini tilting her head towards some sort of metallic object. Magic streamed out of Daisini’s horn and into the device, causing it whir and hum. Of course to Daisini this was how the device was supposed to be booted up, as it needed magic to function correctly, but to an outsider, well it just looked sinister. Arcane Flash stood up straight and gasped, convinced that Daisini was in a bad situation. She took a few steps back, and prepared herself for what could easily become a sticky situation, then she charged forwards, breaking the door open, though it was never locked to start with.
53. The sudden shock of the door opening , caused Daisini to jump and inadvertently send a huge burst of magic into the device. The machine whirred louder, the humming beginning to rise higher and louder, the two aerials at the end started to glow with a white hot intensity. Daisini naturally started to panic, hopping about from one set of hooves to the other, angry at whomever barged in, but horrified that she had a potentially unsafe object before her. Her head swivelled as she prepared to scald the intruder, but when she noticed it was Arcane Flash, her mouth just fell open.
55. “F-F-Flash?!”
57. “Daisini! What’s going on here?!”
59. The machine aimed to answer that question for her, a bolt of magic shot forth from the invention, striking Daisini square in the chest, causing her to glow momentarily before it faded away. Daisini’s invention whirred once more as though it was ready to fire again, but instead ended up sparking and falling silent. Daisini on the other hand felt absolutely awful. She felt like every cell in her body was being rewritten, all those cells in her body, changing and mutating all at once, her skin felt as though it was literally crawling. She could hear Arcane Flash calling to her, asking if she was ok, but it all seemed distorted, like she had been in an explosion. Her vision was hazy at best, she could make out the sparking machine in front of her, but not much else. As her head slowly cleared up her senses returned to normal, and she began to feel less awful. Instead it was replaced with a tremendous feeling of embarrassment, like nothing she had ever experienced before.
61. “Are you alright, Daisini!? Can you hear me ok?”
63. “I-I-I…feel….”
65. A sudden change to her body prevented her from remarking, she had felt it coming, what had started as a warm tingling in her stomach had quickly spread through her body. She had felt like a liquid, like she was all liquid and that her body was falling upwards, growing upwards. It happened again, her body grew again, her height now matching that of Arcane Flash’s. Both mares were stunned, but nothing could have prepared them for what was about to come next….
67. “Daisini, what’s going on?!” yelled Arcane Flash.
69. The green and yellow unicorn doubled her head, her head now pushing against the ceiling. As her body rumbled, another surge was imminent, and when it hit things weren’t going to end well. The unicorn turned herself around, her hooves knocking over equipment, the desk where the aerial had been, even the space where her invention had sat. Her body continued to grow in places, her rear pressed against the back wall, already dislodging some of the stone that supported it. Her cheeks flushed red as she caught sight of Arcane Flash again, she could feel her stomach tying into knots, and her body approving of her embarrassment. She put her backside on the floor, adopting the sitting position and lowered her head so she wouldn’t burst through the roof just yet.
71. “Daisini stop this!”
73. “I-I-I…c-c-can’t…”
75. Arcane Flash was forced to watch as those green cheeks became redder and larger, filling out along with the rest of her head. She couldn’t believe what was happening, one minute she was following a regular sized pony into her secret refuge, and the next she was starting snout to snout with a pony that was likely to flatten her. She peered past the ever expanding Daisini, into the room that the pony was slowly filling up. She was looking for anything that she could use to protect herself, or at least reverse the process. The machine Daisini had been working on looked like it would be her best bet, but even if she could get a hold of it, would there be enough time to get back out safely again? Time was slowly slipping away, soon Daisini would burst through the ceiling, and then the students above them would be in trouble. She hopped from one hoof to the other, ideas running back and forth between what she could do. The walls of the room in-front of her started to groan and crumble as the titanic pony started to force her way through them. Bricks started to slide their way out of the walls, whilst others just crumbled into dust. Time was at a critical point, either she made a move now, or Daisini was going to make a move for her.
77. Whilst Arcane Flash had been weighing up her options, Daisini had shifted herself to ensure that she filled out every inch of the room, in the hopes that her growth would revert on its own accord. Unfortunately, that didn’t seem like it was going to happen. From the moment she had seen Arcane Flash, she’d felt her stomach churn from nerves and yet somehow it had only served to accelerate her growth. She could no longer see out of the door, her head was already high above the door, the ceiling starting to bulge under her pressure. Her forehooves were pressed against the frame of the door, slowly growing closer to each other, and soon they would prevent anyone from getting in. Daisini understood that her growth was going to bring her through the ceiling and into the corridors above. The ponies aboveground would be certain to get themselves to freedom, or at least had a better chance than those down here. It was then that she remembered Arcane Flash, was she still stood outside the door? Or had she left to warn the others?
79. “A-Arcane? A-are you there?!” boomed Daisini.
81. “I-I’m still here!” came the meek response from the frightened pony.
83. The response threw Daisini for a loop, not only did she have to contend with the fact that she was going to burst through the ceiling, but the object of her affection was also in immediate danger. She needed to make a quick decision, and she needed to make it now. She groaned loudly as her head continued to exert its pressure against the ceiling, dust now sprinkling onto her snout. She shifted in what little space she had, and created a wider opening between her hooves, allowing just enough space for a pony to get through.
85. “Arcane! Get in here!” called Daisini.
87. A sudden burst of brick and dust from the buckling walls spurred Arcane towards Daisini, leaping through the green gap, and hurtling towards her stomach. Daisini just managed to catch a glimpse of her friend entering the room, before the top of her head broke through the ceiling. Her horn was the only part that actually broke through into the corridors above, the rest of her head was stuck just beneath it. Dust fell to the floor, like someone had just dropped a bag of flour from it, covering Daisini’s green coat, with a grey-white powder. Arcane Flash cowered beneath the towering green unicorn, and adjusted herself as Daisini’s stomach started to press against her. The walls separating the room from the corridor finally gave up, Daisini’s green and yellow hooves bursting through it, sending bricks flying against the outer wall.
89. Daisini could sense those aboveground staring at her horn, she could feel their eyes boring into her, trying to work out what in Equestria it could be. She just prayed that nobody was still hanging around; she could feel another growth spurt building in her stomach, spreading through her body. She backed up her rump, breaking that through into the room behind her. She shifted further back, giving Arcane Flash some space, so she didn’t end up feeling claustrophobic. Then she turned her attention to getting herself out of this cramped space, and up into the school, and from there somewhere less populated. She forced her head upwards, sending large chunks of the ceiling crumbling and tumbling to the floor, all around Arcane Flash.
91. Screams of terror flooded in from the upper area of the school, the sounds of hooves clattering across the hall floor. The halls were filled with the panicked exclamations of the teachers as they ushered everyone out of the school, attempting to do so in a civil manner, which would have been much easier if the very foundations of the building weren’t shaking. The students were pretty much falling over themselves as they scrambled for safety, shoving their way through the crowds. Fissures started to run through the school, tearing up the floor from classroom to classroom and separating the halls right down the middle, all stemming from Daisini’s horn. The students on the first and second floors had barely noticed the chaos downstairs, before they were being informed to abandon their classes. Alas, they couldn’t just rush downstairs and out into the courtyard, because the stairwells would fill up, and serious injury could occur. So instead, the Pegasi were to airlift the Earth ponies from the classes, whilst the Unicorns would use teleportation.
93. The whole school was slowly but surely emptying itself into the courtyards, and the areas that surrounded even those. Daisini’s head burst through the floor completely, and she was finally able to get a glimpse of the damage and chaos that she was causing. Her head took up half of the hallway just by itself, and as she continued to grow upwards, she lamented not being able to see if Arcane Flash was still ok. Her neck widened and the marble floor crumbled and cracked, dropping down into the empty space below. She could feel her emotions running amok; she felt angry with herself, for not properly testing the machine first, she was embarrassed, because now every pony in the entirety of Equestria would be talking about her, and she was upset, that she may have jeopardized her relationship with Arcane Flash. What a day this was turning out to be.
95. Daisini felt her head brush up against the ceiling once more, indicative of just how quickly she was growing. Below her she shifted her body weight about, her expanded rear now sat within four separate rooms, including the one she had started in. Her hooves had broken past the outer wall of the underground tunnels, and were quickly digging their way through the dirt. Arcane Flash was snuggled between Daisini’s belly and her forehooves, still unsure of what was going to happen to her, but at the same time she was grateful that Daisini was attempting to protect her, it almost felt humbling. In fact, it was during this time that she felt she had time to reflect on the behaviour of the green mare, whenever she was around Arcane Flash. She had always seemed to become extra shy, sometimes managing to mess up complete sentences with her stuttering. She never hung around her long, almost as if she didn’t want to be in her presence. Did Daisini dislike her? She shook her head, there had to be more to it than that, they hardly did or said anything to one another that would even allow a rift to form between them.
97. Meanwhile, Daisini was starting to come up with positives for her new form, or anything that might stop her from fretting so much. She held onto the hope that the whole process would be easy to reverse, or actually had an end for that matter. As her head broke its way through to the first floor, she contemplated how the others would react, whether or not her friends or teachers would accept her or label her a freak. The more and more she dwelled on that, the more she felt her body protest. Her whole body began to accelerate even faster, her head exploded outwards, as did the rest of her. Her belly bulged outwards, pinning Arcane to her forehooves, threatening to crush the poor pony, until her forehooves accelerated as well, causing the gap between them to widen. Arcane Flash was forced through that gap, and was once again at the mercy of the growing mare.
99. The tunnels were pretty much all but destroyed, Daisini’s butt and connecting limbs had seen to that. Her rear hooves were tearing up the area outside, whilst her body was breaking through the rooms of the school at record pace. Of course the best that Arcane Flash could manage was to hear the debris crashing all around her. Remnants of the classrooms lay scattered about the floor, soon crushed by Daisini. Blackboards, desks, saddlebags, textbooks, all were just sitting about, waiting to be flattened by the expanding Unicorn. Arcane settled herself next to Daisini’s forehooves and returned herself back to her thoughts. She brought up a new memory in her head, one that seemed consistent with every meeting the pair had. Daisini always blushed heavily when they met. Her first thought was that she was embarrassed that the two had met, or that she was incredibly awkward around people. Yet Daisini was awkward around everyone, so maybe this ran deeper than just simple awkwardness. She wracked her brain for other solutions, Daisini didn’t seem the sporting type, so it probably wasn’t fan admiration, or was it admiration of a different kind? Was it love?
101. “Arcane!” called out Daisini. “Are you safe?”
103. Arcane buried her thoughts for a moment, and instead looked up to find the face of Daisini looking down on her, the sun hidden behind her enormous head. The shadow that the giant mare cast over her kept her in the same darkness as the tunnels, even without the roof above her. Arcane opened her mouth to speak, but quickly shut it again as she came to realise that she probably couldn’t be heard. Instead, she just observed the face of the gentle giant. She watched as Daisini’s eyes flitted about looking for her, she saw what seemed like the unmistakeable red tinge against her cheeks and for just a moment, she felt a warm spread through her own cheeks. Then she pulled herself together and set about catching Daisini’s attention. She backed up a little and looked straight at the giant green forelegs and forehooves. What was to follow would surely hurt a little, but it would be worth it in the long run. Without waiting a second longer, she charged forward, and leapt at the forelegs, crashing into them with enough force to partially alert Daisini.
105. Daisini felt the tiniest of bumps against her foreleg, and lowered her head to have a closer look. There she caught sight of the smaller mare, pressed up against her legs. Daisini’s face lit up with excitement, but the rest of her remained still, lest she accidentally crush her friend with her movements. Being the resourceful Unicorn that she was, she opted to use her magic to levitate her classmate to her face. Arcane Flash on the other hand was less impressed, she wasn’t a Pegasus, so being lifted into the air and being brought so far from the ground was quite unnerving for her. Still she put on a brave face and looked straight at Daisini.
107. “I’m s-so gl-glad you’re o-ok…” mumbled Daisini, though at her size it was pretty easy to make out what she said.
109. “Yeah, so am I. Listen, I uh…”
111. “Y-you want me t-t-to put you d-down? Do you w-want me t-t-to leave you alo-o-one?
113. Arcane ran a hoof along her foreleg and looked down, unsure of how she could phrase this. There were so many people watching too, it was like they were the main attraction at the local zoo or something. She couldn’t say what she wanted to say, not with all these people present, Daisini would never answer; she was pretty much struggling to get a sentence out as it was. They needed more privacy, somewhere where it could be just the two of them, or with as few people as possible.
115. “Daisini, can we go somewhere a little more…private? I have something I want to ask you…”
117. “U-uh su-sure…”
119. Daisini placed her friend in her mane and stepped over the crowds that had gathered around her, leaving some stunned faces in her wake, those included Mason, the stallion that had bullied her that very same day. She set off into town, her mind wandering onto the nature of Arcane’s motives. She began to focus on how she was asking for privacy, and what it could actually mean. Did she have some sort of kink? Was she going to ask her to perform something vaguely sexual for her? The thought just made Daisini blush, her body going through a brief growth spurt as she passed between two tall buildings. Her rump scraped past, knocking a few inches of brick and glass into the streets below. She rounded a corner and passed over the city boundaries, coming to a rest a few giant paces to the south, by the nearby river. Daisini sat on her haunches and levitated Arcane Flash up to her face.
121. “W-what did y-you want to –ask-k me?” stuttered the giant mare.
123. “Daisini, whilst you were growing, I did some thinking. I’ve thought about how you were behaving around me, how you always seem to be extra awkward around me, and I can’t help but think that maybe you…love me?”
125. Daisini’s eyes shot wide open. “H-H-how…?”
127. “Would you believe a lucky guess?” replied the athletic pony, her own cheeks starting to flush red.
129. “D-do you feel…”
131. “…the same?” interjected Arcane, “I’m not sure, but maybe I could ‘grow’ to love the new you?”
133. Daisini levitated Arcane to her cheek and gently rubbed the smaller mare against her cheek, sharing her warmth with her friend. The two gently nuzzled each other, embracing the moment to the fullest, before coming back to the situation at hand. Daisini stared at Arcane, and Arcane returned her gaze. There they remained, lost in the other’s eyes, until Daisini spoke, in her most confident and resounding voice yet.
135. “Thank you, Arcane Flash…”

Ponyville University was a tough place to make your mark, you needed to be the best of the best, and then some more. For some it was three years of living the life of the popular ones, surrounded by other ponies, rarely ever having to lift a finger when it came to most school work. Unfortunately that was the very top of the social ladder, and each rung down meant you lost one of perks of the popular life. At the very bottom rung of the ladder, you find the people that have their own set of perks, which don’t really do much for them, but benefit others more. These are the people that keep to themself the ones that only belong with others of the same type. Most are intellectual, some are just anti-social, and it was one of these people that was about to have an extraordinary day. Daisini was one of these ponies, she kept to herself, made sure that her enemies were kept well at bay with promises of homework answers, and spent most of her time working or theorising about new inventions or spells. The deepest corner of the library was her domain, and the halls underneath the University, was her workspace. She’d spent many an hour down there, and as a result almost missed a fair few of her classes. Not that it bothered her, she liked the quiet and calm that she found under the University, much better than a raucous classroom. There was really only one reason for her to go to class, and that was to catch a glimpse of Arcane Flash, the resident sporty mare. Daisini had developed strong feelings for Arcane Flash, but she’d never managed to find the time or the words to confess. At this moment, Daisini found herself daydreaming about her latest projects. “Daisini? Daisini! Pay attention girl!” The green and yellow unicorn snapped out of her daze, shaking her head as she came to realise where she actually was. She was sitting in the middle row of desks, the eyes of every other stallion and mare fixated firmly upon her. Her eyes shot open as she saw them all staring at her, a crimson blush covering her cheeks. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted Arcane Flash, gazing wistfully out of the window overlooking the grounds. Daisini blushed harder and lowered her head in apology. The lecturer sighed and carried on with her lesson, leaving Daisini with her head bowed awkwardly. Not that it was a problem for her, from this lower angle no-one could see that she was still eyeing up Arcane Flash. She couldn’t help but admire that purple coat, and those finely tuned athletic limbs. She was a tall, toned mare, and the subject of many an abstract daydream by Daisini. The class bell suddenly sounded and instantly everyone in the class instantly perked up. “Ok class, before you go, I want you make a note that you should have read and understood the complete theories detailed in the book, there will be a test tomorrow morning,” explained the teacher. Nobody in the class even paused; they just bolted for the door. A few of the more sensible students, such as Daisini and Arcane Flash took things slower. As the two prepped to leave, Daisini nipped in front of Arcane Flash and turned to face her. “H-hey…” “Uhm, hey?” replied Arcane Flash. “So I-I was w-wondering…i-if…” “Are you ok? You seem to be stuttering quite a bit….” Daisini cursed in her head, this had all seemed so easy in practice, she’d worked out every variable, every possible combination of spoken words that could convey her feelings. Here she was stumbling through her sentence delivery, something she had deemed very important, especially when confessing feelings of love. Had she somehow gotten it wrong? Was her research misleading? She closed her eyes and scrunched up her face, she could still see Arcane Flash’s concerned expression, those sapphire eyes twinkling in the light. There was nothing left for it, she was going to have to go back to the drawing board and re-evaluate her performance and strategy. “I-I gotta go!” exclaimed the unicorn. With that, she turned tail and made for the door, she didn’t waste any time with stopping to answer Arcane’s call of ‘wait’. Instead, she found herself running straight into the rear end of the class bully, Broad Mason, a stallion Daisini had been well acquainted with. For years she’d put up with his constant taunts about her physical appearance, and her status as an intellectual. She’d put off most of what he said, tried her best to ignore him and his band of sneering cohorts. She psyched herself up for another encounter with him, mentally revisiting all his previous insults, all the previous gestures he had made. Mason swivelled on his hooves, and upon seeing Daisini, he cracked a smile that couldn’t get any wider. “Well if it isn’t, Dai-baby…” chided Mason. “I d-don’t have time for this, I-I need to get to the n-next class…” mumbled Daisini. “Oh? What’re you gonna do there? Read all your science books? Take notes like a little nerd?” There came an array of guffaws from outside the classroom, most likely belonging to Mason’s inner circle. “Y-yes I a-am. Th-that’s what you d-do in a class, M-M-Mason, you learn and revise, you’d know th-that if you actually p-paid att-tention…” “Aww look at the little pony, getting all upset, are you gonna cry, little pony baby? You gonna run to your mummy? Huh?” continued Mason. Daisini shoved past without replying and made her way to her next class, a class that she was thankful wasn’t shared with Broad Mason. She took up her seat at the desk, and immediately locked herself in her thoughts. Her mind drifted to the halls under the school, back to her secret lab, back to her inventions. What a peaceful place, so quiet, just her and her tools. A smile cracked its way along her face as she imagined herself putting her finishing touches to her latest device, The Emotive Expander. This thing would be certain to win her some awards, big, prestigious awards that would propel her to something of a celebrity in the science world. A device capable of expanding the emotive range of any living creature, even the most remote of individuals would benefit from this device. Though that wasn’t the only application of the device, along with the increase in emotive range, she had also programmed it to alter the pony body entirely. Daisini wasn’t exactly renowned for her height, she came from a family of mares that were often considered unnaturally tall, even by pony standards, and she had sort of been the runt of the family. All through her life she had endured teasing at the hands of others for her height, and this addition to the device would soon be her solution to this. She’d show them all, once she would be up on that hypothetical stage, collecting her science award, standing tall and proud amongst the others. Those would be the days. It was at that point that Daisini realised something important, something that was going to have a dire impact on her plans. The end of the year was fast approaching; she wasn’t going to get any other chances to profess her love to this mare, so she needed to work fast. After the class was over, she raced to her homely corner of the library and pulled around seventeen different books down from the shelves. The books swirled around her, flipping open to the correct pages, and as they passed her eyes, they skimmed further forward so they were in the right place for when they rolled back around. Her eyes worked furiously to take in all the information she required, from attractiveness spells, to heightened awareness. Also in the library was Arcane Flash still left somewhat confused about Daisini’s earlier behaviour. As she weaved through the maze of bookshelves, looking for the particular book that would hold the theories for her homework, she spotted Daisni sifting through her books. Indulging in a moment of madness, she took refuge behind a nearby bookcase and peered through the books at Dasini. The green and yellow unicorn was flipping through the pages of those books faster than most people at the school, it was quite the feat to behold. Then without warning, she dropped the books and let them clatter around her, some remained half open while the rest landed and shook themselves closed. Now she had the information she could put the finishing touches to her latest creation. She zipped past the bookcase that held the concealed Arcane Flash, and left the library at a brisk pace, so as not to draw too much attention. Daisini approached the door leading to the halls underneath the school and paused for a moment, then slipped inside once the corridors had fallen silent. Arcane Flash took the same approach, pausing at the door, to give Daisini some time to get ahead of her, before she entered the hallways. She took care with her steps, muffling them as best she could as she looked to located Daisini, she caught sight of a hint of blue turn around a corner to her left. Realising it was her one and only lead, she followed the tail, peeking around the corner to catch sight of the green and yellow mare. Thankfully, Daisini had paused to fondle with a loose pebble that had embedded itself into her hoof. “How can something so small cause such an emotive response?” pondered Daisini out loud, under the impression that she was alone here. She pinged the pebble from her hoof and eased the afflicted hoof back onto the floor, and upon doing so, she continued onwards. Arcane Flash held back once more, peeping around the corner in case Daisini got out of sight. Her target made it about halfway down the hallway before ceasing her movements once more and turned to her right. There she extended her hoof, and created a rattling sound that echoed down the hallways. The rattling was soon replaced by a long and drawn out creaking, followed by what appeared to be a machine hum and the soft beeping of an instrument panel. As Daisini disappeared into what could only be an anteroom, Arcane Flash took her first steps to follow her. Daisini closed the door behind her and crossed to a desk at the far corner of the room, upon which sat a small aerial. Up until now this small aerial was what had prevented her from completing her device, this was to be the body modifier. Every previous time she had attempted to utilise it, the machine had rejected it, but now she had researched a possible solution, and was confident that it could work. She levitated the aerial over to the left hand side of the room, where there sat a long slender object. The object appeared to be made of metal, with small wires and other loose materials poking of from inside. At the front of the device was another aerial, similar to the first one, except this one was for the emotive aspect of her creation. She used her magic to separate the second aerial, and bring it next to the first. From there she carefully began to telekinetically pull and twist the wirey frame of the aerial, and meshed the two together so that they formed one complex looking mess. After she was done with her tinkering, she replaced the now combined aerials into their relevant slots and took up the centre of the room. Arcane Flash stood outside the door, debating about whether or not she should enter the room, it was of course Daisini’s place of refuge, and intruding on that would be bad. She resolved to look through the keyhole, just to see what was going on, maybe there was nothing to worry about. She bent her legs a little and peered towards the keyhole on the door, squinting so she could make out the image a lot better. There, at the centre of the room stood Daisini tilting her head towards some sort of metallic object. Magic streamed out of Daisini’s horn and into the device, causing it whir and hum. Of course to Daisini this was how the device was supposed to be booted up, as it needed magic to function correctly, but to an outsider, well it just looked sinister. Arcane Flash stood up straight and gasped, convinced that Daisini was in a bad situation. She took a few steps back, and prepared herself for what could easily become a sticky situation, then she charged forwards, breaking the door open, though it was never locked to start with. The sudden shock of the door opening , caused Daisini to jump and inadvertently send a huge burst of magic into the device. The machine whirred louder, the humming beginning to rise higher and louder, the two aerials at the end started to glow with a white hot intensity. Daisini naturally started to panic, hopping about from one set of hooves to the other, angry at whomever barged in, but horrified that she had a potentially unsafe object before her. Her head swivelled as she prepared to scald the intruder, but when she noticed it was Arcane Flash, her mouth just fell open. “F-F-Flash?!” “Daisini! What’s going on here?!” The machine aimed to answer that question for her, a bolt of magic shot forth from the invention, striking Daisini square in the chest, causing her to glow momentarily before it faded away. Daisini’s invention whirred once more as though it was ready to fire again, but instead ended up sparking and falling silent. Daisini on the other hand felt absolutely awful. She felt like every cell in her body was being rewritten, all those cells in her body, changing and mutating all at once, her skin felt as though it was literally crawling. She could hear Arcane Flash calling to her, asking if she was ok, but it all seemed distorted, like she had been in an explosion. Her vision was hazy at best, she could make out the sparking machine in front of her, but not much else. As her head slowly cleared up her senses returned to normal, and she began to feel less awful. Instead it was replaced with a tremendous feeling of embarrassment, like nothing she had ever experienced before. “Are you alright, Daisini!? Can you hear me ok?” “I-I-I…feel….” A sudden change to her body prevented her from remarking, she had felt it coming, what had started as a warm tingling in her stomach had quickly spread through her body. She had felt like a liquid, like she was all liquid and that her body was falling upwards, growing upwards. It happened again, her body grew again, her height now matching that of Arcane Flash’s. Both mares were stunned, but nothing could have prepared them for what was about to come next…. “Daisini, what’s going on?!” yelled Arcane Flash. The green and yellow unicorn doubled her head, her head now pushing against the ceiling. As her body rumbled, another surge was imminent, and when it hit things weren’t going to end well. The unicorn turned herself around, her hooves knocking over equipment, the desk where the aerial had been, even the space where her invention had sat. Her body continued to grow in places, her rear pressed against the back wall, already dislodging some of the stone that supported it. Her cheeks flushed red as she caught sight of Arcane Flash again, she could feel her stomach tying into knots, and her body approving of her embarrassment. She put her backside on the floor, adopting the sitting position and lowered her head so she wouldn’t burst through the roof just yet. “Daisini stop this!” “I-I-I…c-c-can’t…” Arcane Flash was forced to watch as those green cheeks became redder and larger, filling out along with the rest of her head. She couldn’t believe what was happening, one minute she was following a regular sized pony into her secret refuge, and the next she was starting snout to snout with a pony that was likely to flatten her. She peered past the ever expanding Daisini, into the room that the pony was slowly filling up. She was looking for anything that she could use to protect herself, or at least reverse the process. The machine Daisini had been working on looked like it would be her best bet, but even if she could get a hold of it, would there be enough time to get back out safely again? Time was slowly slipping away, soon Daisini would burst through the ceiling, and then the students above them would be in trouble. She hopped from one hoof to the other, ideas running back and forth between what she could do. The walls of the room in-front of her started to groan and crumble as the titanic pony started to force her way through them. Bricks started to slide their way out of the walls, whilst others just crumbled into dust. Time was at a critical point, either she made a move now, or Daisini was going to make a move for her. Whilst Arcane Flash had been weighing up her options, Daisini had shifted herself to ensure that she filled out every inch of the room, in the hopes that her growth would revert on its own accord. Unfortunately, that didn’t seem like it was going to happen. From the moment she had seen Arcane Flash, she’d felt her stomach churn from nerves and yet somehow it had only served to accelerate her growth. She could no longer see out of the door, her head was already high above the door, the ceiling starting to bulge under her pressure. Her forehooves were pressed against the frame of the door, slowly growing closer to each other, and soon they would prevent anyone from getting in. Daisini understood that her growth was going to bring her through the ceiling and into the corridors above. The ponies aboveground would be certain to get themselves to freedom, or at least had a better chance than those down here. It was then that she remembered Arcane Flash, was she still stood outside the door? Or had she left to warn the others? “A-Arcane? A-are you there?!” boomed Daisini. “I-I’m still here!” came the meek response from the frightened pony. The response threw Daisini for a loop, not only did she have to contend with the fact that she was going to burst through the ceiling, but the object of her affection was also in immediate danger. She needed to make a quick decision, and she needed to make it now. She groaned loudly as her head continued to exert its pressure against the ceiling, dust now sprinkling onto her snout. She shifted in what little space she had, and created a wider opening between her hooves, allowing just enough space for a pony to get through. “Arcane! Get in here!” called Daisini. A sudden burst of brick and dust from the buckling walls spurred Arcane towards Daisini, leaping through the green gap, and hurtling towards her stomach. Daisini just managed to catch a glimpse of her friend entering the room, before the top of her head broke through the ceiling. Her horn was the only part that actually broke through into the corridors above, the rest of her head was stuck just beneath it. Dust fell to the floor, like someone had just dropped a bag of flour from it, covering Daisini’s green coat, with a grey-white powder. Arcane Flash cowered beneath the towering green unicorn, and adjusted herself as Daisini’s stomach started to press against her. The walls separating the room from the corridor finally gave up, Daisini’s green and yellow hooves bursting through it, sending bricks flying against the outer wall. Daisini could sense those aboveground staring at her horn, she could feel their eyes boring into her, trying to work out what in Equestria it could be. She just prayed that nobody was still hanging around; she could feel another growth spurt building in her stomach, spreading through her body. She backed up her rump, breaking that through into the room behind her. She shifted further back, giving Arcane Flash some space, so she didn’t end up feeling claustrophobic. Then she turned her attention to getting herself out of this cramped space, and up into the school, and from there somewhere less populated. She forced her head upwards, sending large chunks of the ceiling crumbling and tumbling to the floor, all around Arcane Flash. Screams of terror flooded in from the upper area of the school, the sounds of hooves clattering across the hall floor. The halls were filled with the panicked exclamations of the teachers as they ushered everyone out of the school, attempting to do so in a civil manner, which would have been much easier if the very foundations of the building weren’t shaking. The students were pretty much falling over themselves as they scrambled for safety, shoving their way through the crowds. Fissures started to run through the school, tearing up the floor from classroom to classroom and separating the halls right down the middle, all stemming from Daisini’s horn. The students on the first and second floors had barely noticed the chaos downstairs, before they were being informed to abandon their classes. Alas, they couldn’t just rush downstairs and out into the courtyard, because the stairwells would fill up, and serious injury could occur. So instead, the Pegasi were to airlift the Earth ponies from the classes, whilst the Unicorns would use teleportation. The whole school was slowly but surely emptying itself into the courtyards, and the areas that surrounded even those. Daisini’s head burst through the floor completely, and she was finally able to get a glimpse of the damage and chaos that she was causing. Her head took up half of the hallway just by itself, and as she continued to grow upwards, she lamented not being able to see if Arcane Flash was still ok. Her neck widened and the marble floor crumbled and cracked, dropping down into the empty space below. She could feel her emotions running amok; she felt angry with herself, for not properly testing the machine first, she was embarrassed, because now every pony in the entirety of Equestria would be talking about her, and she was upset, that she may have jeopardized her relationship with Arcane Flash. What a day this was turning out to be. Daisini felt her head brush up against the ceiling once more, indicative of just how quickly she was growing. Below her she shifted her body weight about, her expanded rear now sat within four separate rooms, including the one she had started in. Her hooves had broken past the outer wall of the underground tunnels, and were quickly digging their way through the dirt. Arcane Flash was snuggled between Daisini’s belly and her forehooves, still unsure of what was going to happen to her, but at the same time she was grateful that Daisini was attempting to protect her, it almost felt humbling. In fact, it was during this time that she felt she had time to reflect on the behaviour of the green mare, whenever she was around Arcane Flash. She had always seemed to become extra shy, sometimes managing to mess up complete sentences with her stuttering. She never hung around her long, almost as if she didn’t want to be in her presence. Did Daisini dislike her? She shook her head, there had to be more to it than that, they hardly did or said anything to one another that would even allow a rift to form between them. Meanwhile, Daisini was starting to come up with positives for her new form, or anything that might stop her from fretting so much. She held onto the hope that the whole process would be easy to reverse, or actually had an end for that matter. As her head broke its way through to the first floor, she contemplated how the others would react, whether or not her friends or teachers would accept her or label her a freak. The more and more she dwelled on that, the more she felt her body protest. Her whole body began to accelerate even faster, her head exploded outwards, as did the rest of her. Her belly bulged outwards, pinning Arcane to her forehooves, threatening to crush the poor pony, until her forehooves accelerated as well, causing the gap between them to widen. Arcane Flash was forced through that gap, and was once again at the mercy of the growing mare. The tunnels were pretty much all but destroyed, Daisini’s butt and connecting limbs had seen to that. Her rear hooves were tearing up the area outside, whilst her body was breaking through the rooms of the school at record pace. Of course the best that Arcane Flash could manage was to hear the debris crashing all around her. Remnants of the classrooms lay scattered about the floor, soon crushed by Daisini. Blackboards, desks, saddlebags, textbooks, all were just sitting about, waiting to be flattened by the expanding Unicorn. Arcane settled herself next to Daisini’s forehooves and returned herself back to her thoughts. She brought up a new memory in her head, one that seemed consistent with every meeting the pair had. Daisini always blushed heavily when they met. Her first thought was that she was embarrassed that the two had met, or that she was incredibly awkward around people. Yet Daisini was awkward around everyone, so maybe this ran deeper than just simple awkwardness. She wracked her brain for other solutions, Daisini didn’t seem the sporting type, so it probably wasn’t fan admiration, or was it admiration of a different kind? Was it love? “Arcane!” called out Daisini. “Are you safe?” Arcane buried her thoughts for a moment, and instead looked up to find the face of Daisini looking down on her, the sun hidden behind her enormous head. The shadow that the giant mare cast over her kept her in the same darkness as the tunnels, even without the roof above her. Arcane opened her mouth to speak, but quickly shut it again as she came to realise that she probably couldn’t be heard. Instead, she just observed the face of the gentle giant. She watched as Daisini’s eyes flitted about looking for her, she saw what seemed like the unmistakeable red tinge against her cheeks and for just a moment, she felt a warm spread through her own cheeks. Then she pulled herself together and set about catching Daisini’s attention. She backed up a little and looked straight at the giant green forelegs and forehooves. What was to follow would surely hurt a little, but it would be worth it in the long run. Without waiting a second longer, she charged forward, and leapt at the forelegs, crashing into them with enough force to partially alert Daisini. Daisini felt the tiniest of bumps against her foreleg, and lowered her head to have a closer look. There she caught sight of the smaller mare, pressed up against her legs. Daisini’s face lit up with excitement, but the rest of her remained still, lest she accidentally crush her friend with her movements. Being the resourceful Unicorn that she was, she opted to use her magic to levitate her classmate to her face. Arcane Flash on the other hand was less impressed, she wasn’t a Pegasus, so being lifted into the air and being brought so far from the ground was quite unnerving for her. Still she put on a brave face and looked straight at Daisini. “I’m s-so gl-glad you’re o-ok…” mumbled Daisini, though at her size it was pretty easy to make out what she said. “Yeah, so am I. Listen, I uh…” “Y-you want me t-t-to put you d-down? Do you w-want me t-t-to leave you alo-o-one? Arcane ran a hoof along her foreleg and looked down, unsure of how she could phrase this. There were so many people watching too, it was like they were the main attraction at the local zoo or something. She couldn’t say what she wanted to say, not with all these people present, Daisini would never answer; she was pretty much struggling to get a sentence out as it was. They needed more privacy, somewhere where it could be just the two of them, or with as few people as possible. “Daisini, can we go somewhere a little more…private? I have something I want to ask you…” “U-uh su-sure…” Daisini placed her friend in her mane and stepped over the crowds that had gathered around her, leaving some stunned faces in her wake, those included Mason, the stallion that had bullied her that very same day. She set off into town, her mind wandering onto the nature of Arcane’s motives. She began to focus on how she was asking for privacy, and what it could actually mean. Did she have some sort of kink? Was she going to ask her to perform something vaguely sexual for her? The thought just made Daisini blush, her body going through a brief growth spurt as she passed between two tall buildings. Her rump scraped past, knocking a few inches of brick and glass into the streets below. She rounded a corner and passed over the city boundaries, coming to a rest a few giant paces to the south, by the nearby river. Daisini sat on her haunches and levitated Arcane Flash up to her face. “W-what did y-you want to –ask-k me?” stuttered the giant mare. “Daisini, whilst you were growing, I did some thinking. I’ve thought about how you were behaving around me, how you always seem to be extra awkward around me, and I can’t help but think that maybe you…love me?” Daisini’s eyes shot wide open. “H-H-how…?” “Would you believe a lucky guess?” replied the athletic pony, her own cheeks starting to flush red. “D-do you feel…” “…the same?” interjected Arcane, “I’m not sure, but maybe I could ‘grow’ to love the new you?” Daisini levitated Arcane to her cheek and gently rubbed the smaller mare against her cheek, sharing her warmth with her friend. The two gently nuzzled each other, embracing the moment to the fullest, before coming back to the situation at hand. Daisini stared at Arcane, and Arcane returned her gaze. There they remained, lost in the other’s eyes, until Daisini spoke, in her most confident and resounding voice yet. “Thank you, Arcane Flash…”
