Giant Rocket Girl

The lake began to bubble and churn. Waves splashed onto the shore. A giant figure rose out of the water. “ Whoa! “ said Roxy, looking down. “ I'm huge! “ Downtown, Roxy slowly walked between the buildings.

“ Be careful, ” she told herself. “ You don't want to step on anybody! ” Roxy saw a frog clinging to Metro City Bank. The frog was slimy and gross. But now Roxy was much bigger than it. Roxy took a deep breath. “ Okay. I can do this. I can pick up a frog. "

She closed her eyes and reached for the frog. Roxy felt it squish. “ Eww! “ she cried, quickly pulling her hand back. Roxy reached out again. This time she gently picked the slimy creature off the building. Holding the frog in her hand, Roxy zoomed back to the park.

She dropped the frog into the purple lake. Splash! “ That wasn’t so bad, ” thought Roxy. Roxy flew back to downtown Metro City. One by one, she found all the frogs. She put all of them in the lake. “ Whew! ” said Roxy. “ I'm glad that's done. But the frogs are still too big. And so am I. What made us grow in the first place?"

Roxy thought for a moment. She looked down at the purple lake. “ Aha! ” she said. " The meteor! " Roxy stepped into the lake and fished around under the water. A moment later she felt the meteor. Roxy pulled it out of the lake. Right away the water lost its purple color.
