"She is back here," Kali told me, leading me to a back room alone. I had asked Nya to wait for me while I talked to Lady Katarina, but Kali was the person working the front door. "Sorry about before. I get a little carried away sometimes."
I looked up at the big woman, who looked awkward now as she guided me to the back section of the Barracks where the cells were. Once we reached the far door, Kali fumbled with a key ring, but I could see that her hands were shaking.
"Kali, are you okay?" I asked, putting a hand over hers, and looked up in surprise to see that Kali was crying. "What's wrong?!"
"I don't want to get sent back! I am sorry for what I said before; just don't let her send me back!" Kali cried, dropping the keys as her entire body began to shake.
This was a strange situation since I was half the size of this woman, and it made it very hard for me to comfort her in any meaningful way. What was she supposed to do? Lean a hip on my shoulder to cry on?
I pulled in magic as my mind raced, but I found what I was looking for, pulling in Growth Magic. My body swelled up, my ears nearly touching the ten-foot roof, and my tail filling half the halfway. I was much bigger than Kali now, almost two feet taller, and she looked up at me in awe with tear-filled eyes.
I wrapped my arms and bushy tail around Kali and pulled her into my chest, but that only seemed to make Kali cry harder. She wrapped her arms around me and continued to cry into my chest, so I just held her for a bit.
Kali was still young, according to Tallia, but I didn't know exactly what that meant. I would need to see a birthing and talk to one of the girls after birth to see what they are like. I was curious to know if they acted childlike or if they just seemed lost.
"Sorry for this," Kali said with her face buried into my chest. With me big like this, holding her was like holding Eliza.
"It's okay. I get it, you are stressed out, but you are going to have to leave to deal with your attitude. If you want to stay around, you are going to have to change," I said, and Kali nodded.
"I will try. I didn't know that you were so big or that you were a Cat Folk like Nyala," Kali said, her face still in my chest, and I chuckled.
"Don't worry, I surprise myself all the time. Stop being an arse to everyone, and be a good girl for once," I said, smacking Kali's ass and making her moan into my chest softly.
What is this? Another masochist in the making? This new big form might get some use in later days!
"Okay, I will take the keys; you go back up to the front and make sure that no one comes back here, okay?" I asked as I let go of Kali, and she nodded with a small smile as she rubbed her face.
I shrunk down, but it felt weird again to be on the shorter end of things. Kali was slightly blushing, but she wiped her eyes and nodded her head.
"I will do better. Do you think that you might be able to teach me? I want to learn things too," Kali asked, and I nodded as I bent over to pick up the keys.
"Yes, tomorrow you can come to the house in the morning with the other girls. I expect you to be on your best behavior," I said, and Kali nodded with a smile and left me in the hallway alone.
I shook my head to rid it of the images that were forming of me dominating the giantess and making her cry my name. They were good images, but I needed to get in the game. The mood was about to take a turn, I was sure.
After trying a few keys, I was able to get the door open to the cell block that had six separate cells, all closed in with Iron bars. All of the cells were empty except the very last one on the right side. I could see Lady Katarina sitting in the farthest corner of the cells on the cot that hung from the wall with two chains.
"Strange. This is the second time that I have been imprisoned since I left the city. I really hope there is a good reason for this. You know that this is quite embarrassing for a woman of my standing to be sitting in a place like this," Lady Katarina said as I walked over to the cell.
I didn't say anything because I needed to know if she was being controlled like Morgana, another person I needed to help soon. Instead, I went through the keys on the ring until I found the one that opened the cell door.
When it opened, Lady Katarina looked up at me in shock as I walked into the cell. I closed the door behind me and then locked it, turning back to the now scared looked woman.
"What is the meaning of this?! I haven't done anything wrong to warrant this kind of treatment!" Lady Katarina cried, putting up her hands to stop me as I walked over to her.
I went up until my face was almost pressed into hers, making Lady Katarina breathe heavily. She was a decent-looking woman, with shapely hips with a robust chest, but her waist squeezed in to give her a full hourglass body.
I sniffed her and then leaned in and kissed Lady Katarina, surprising her, but that was no residue of Negative Energy. I would have been able to taste it on her, but there was nothing there, just as I had hoped.
"What was that for?! Not that I didn't like it, but this hardly seems like the place for this kind of thing!" Lady Katarina gasped as I pulled back from her. She was now red-faced, but I could understand. I must have caught her off-guard pretty well.
