Chapter 14

"HOLY FUCKSHIT!" she roared.

"Vaccine Woman?" Saitama asked in a non-forced calm tone. Considering all the monsters he's ever fought before, this wasn't really anything special. "You okay?"

"I feel a little b-bloated." they heard her grunt from up top.

"What exactly just happened?" Genos asked, his eyes scanning her inflated form.

"I think *URP* that he just tried filling me with tar until I exploded." she said as she stared down at her belly. "Don't know how I'm alive. Don't care."

"Like you said before, you were able to transform into a larger version of yourself." Genos began, gaining their attention. "Perhaps your body instinctively grew to counter this attempt on your life?"

"Like I said. Don't know, don't care." Vaccine Girl repeated.

"Well, as long as you're alright, then that's fine." Saitama said before lightly tapping her stomach. "Although, it doesn't look like you'll be leaving your apartment for awhile."

"Forgive me for arguing with you, but this may not be the end." the Subterranean Queen protested. "What if he tries and fills her with even more tar later on?!"

"He won't." Genos suddenly stated, his eyes scanning the contents of her stomach. "I can sense no lifesigns from within her. It may be that the tar held within his body was released upon his death. Or perhaps he mistakenly killed himself in a final desperate attempt to escape."

"Either way, he's finally dead." Vaccine Girl sighed in relief. "About time. I was tired of him kicking around in there."

"I think that now would be a good time to call it a night." Beast Queen suggested.

"What?! Don't leave me like this!" Vaccine Girl snapped, her stomach rippling and gurgling from her frantic movement. "What am I supposed to do with all this?!"

"Shut up and digest." Sub Queen ordered while the others left for their respective homes, leaving the two roommates alone in their now-too-small room.

"Think I can join you up-"

"No! I am not letting you use me as your bed!" Vaccine Girl growled before resting her head on her own belly.

"Darn."

-Morning-

Vaccine Girl groaned as her eyes fluttered open. She immediately shut them to keep the sun from her eyes.

"Stupid sun." she groaned as she tried to remember what happened yesterday. "I left to walk around in a disguise. Met a tar monster. Nearly died from him. Ate the tar he placed on my head. Confronted him. Ate him..." Her eyes flew open at that last thought. "I ate him!"

"Every bite."

She jumped and turned to see Sub Queen lying on her own futon, which she got when she asked Genos for one since Saitama gave Vaccine Girl the spare. The sword wielding monster was smiling as she stood up and looked down at her roommate, and hand held out to her. "Come on. We should let the others know you're alright."

"I am?" she asked as she accepted the hand before looking down at her unbloated self. "I am! I must've digested the tar! YES!" she shouted as she hugged her flat self. She blinked as she felt something rub against her arms mid-hug. She looked down to see, to her delight, two small lumps appearing under her nightshirt. "My body's grown!"

"I thought you looked a little taller." Sub Queen chuckled as she patted Vaccine Girl's head. "Think you can survive out there on your own now?"

"Hmm." Vaccine Girl hummed, her expression shifting to one of deep contemplation before looking back up at her. "Nah. I'm gonna wait until I'm fully back to normal."

"Very well." Sub Queen nodded before giving off a pout that Vaccine Girl knew to be fake. "Shame though. I thought I could have this room to myself." She chuckled as Vaccine Girl jumped at her, knocking her down as she began to hit her with playful punches.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

Both of them jumped and defensive at the sound of someone screaming-

"I WILL NOT PLAY ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS WITH YOU! YOU'VE GOT A BOOGER ON YOUR FINGERRRR!"

Before sagging with a groan after that sentence.

"I don't think there's anything out there that's scarier than whatever he dreams of." Vaccine Girl groaned.

-Beast Queen-

Beast Queen groaned as she laid back down for a little extra shut-eye after Saitama's little outburst startled her awake.

"It's too early for this crap." she groaned as she rolled over. "How does that rocky bimbo and bloated midget handle this?" She started drifting back to sleep before her eyes shot open, her mind screeching to a halt before backtracing to last night. "Vaccine Girl!" she yelped as she rushed out the door and down the stairs. She practically tore the door off it's hinges with how hard she swung it open. "Hey! Are you..." she started before seeing Vaccine Girl posing in front of a mirror and examining her shrunken figure. "Wait? You're back to normal already?"

"Even better!" she said with a grin as she faced her, missing Sub Queen roll her three eyes good naturedly. "I grew a few inches!" Beast Queen croched down to closely examine her before rising back to her full height, a smile on her maw.

"I can tell." she said before her eyes widened in shock. "Oh crap!"

"What?" Vaccine Girl asked before looking down at herself. "Is there something on me?!"

"No!" she wailed, her hands grasping her head as she roared in misery. "I didn't get a chance to show Mosquito Girl or Armored Gorilla!"

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" the purple monster snapped furiously as she lunged at her, only for her flailing form to be held at bay by one of Beast Queen's hands. "YOU BETTER HOPE I NEVER GET BACK TO FULL STRENGTH! BECAUSE WHEN I DO, I'M GONNA SKIN YOU ALIVE AND USE YOUR HIDE A RUG!"

"And besides, it's been taken care of." Sub Queen said with a grin. "Genos is capable of storing anything he sees to a video, which he so generously agreed to copy for me later."

"I WILL BEAT YOU BACK INTO THE EARTH'S CRUST IF YOU DON'T ERASE IT!" Vaccine Girl roared as she changed target's, leaving Beast Queen the chance to laugh as the Subterranean Queen began running and dodging the little midget, the noise blocking the sound of Saitama's footsteps as he left his apartment.
