[Some backstory for this preview – Immediately following the Infomercial, the government issued a widespread confiscation on all Brawnafiers, essentially declaring martial law in the process.  All Brawnafiers appeared to have been taken off of the market.  After a few months of the product disappearing, the Power Company, under heavy scrutiny of the government began creating a series of NuBrawnafiers, which had severely limited capabilities in comparison to the original model.  

Penny, a scrawny, weak teenage girl who spends most of her time online happens to be home alone when a delivery comes.  Somehow, through some immense twist of fate, one of the original Brawnafiers went undelivered and was never confiscated.  It has somehow wound up delivered to that girl's home!

This backstory will be expanded upon greatly in the full version of the story!]



“Huh, I didn't realize the NuBrawnafiers were already sent out for consumer use.” Penny mused as she booted up the machine's initial setup.  “Amazing how the mega-batteries equipped in these things come fully charged.”

Within moments, the interface whirred to life and a familiar voice rang out.  “Hey there!  Congrats on your purchase of a Brawnafier!  I'm going to search the internet for updates, okay?”

Penny blinked.  “Err, wait, hold that thought.”

“Okay!” the machine responded cheerfully.

“Tell me, what version of Brawnafier are you?” she inquired.

“Why, I'm a plain out of the box Brawnafier Version One Point Oh!  Now if you let me update, there's a high probability I can change that number.”

“Wait, wait!” Penny rang out.  “Are you a new Brawnafier?”

“A NEW Brawnafier?” the AI responded – its tone was ambiguous in nature, it could very well be genuinely confused, or mocking her absurd question.  “Well, I'm definitely unused if that's what you mean.  But, like I said I'm an original consumer model Version One!”

Penny's heart started to race.  This could have been a misunderstanding, but there was no way she could let such a massive potential opportunity go to waste.  “Don't update!  Stay put... Power off for now, okay?” she commanded.

“Well... Okay.  Seeya.” the machine complied, shutting itself down.

Penny scrambled over the living room desktop, nearly tripping over her gangly feet in the process.  After sitting down she feverishly opened the internet browser and directed herself back to that strange forum of Brawnafier enthusiasts.  After some quick searching, she finally found the thread of “Version One ORIGINAL Brawnafier Hacks”.  Not wanting to let anything go potentially awry, she grabbed a notebook and pen nearby before frantically copying down the long list of codes and commands.

It took her a solid 15 minutes, but Penny managed to copy everything down.  She took a few deep breaths, collecting herself, before getting up and moving back towards the machine.  As she approached the panel, she readied her notebook before hitting the power button again.  Before the Brawnafier's AI could even greet her, she had begun inputting a flurry of commands.

“W-WOAH!” The AI's voice yelled out.  “Looks like we've got a... a POWER user!”

Penny ignored the voice's comment and resumed her work.  She found out quite quickly that this was indeed an original Brawnafier, no different than the one that turned that fitness model into the strongest human alive on national television.  

After a few more commands were accepted, the AI's voice let out a confirmation “Looks like you just disabled my Wireless Internet capabilities completely.  Interesting choice!”

“Okay, scan me to verify that I'm the new absolute root admin of this Brawnafier.” Penny commanded after another few lines of code.

The gangly teen stepped into the machine's sensor range before it followed her orders.  “I never caught your name.” the AI mentioned.

“Penny.  Now, set a body goal to get as big and strong as possible”  

“Right on Penny.  You're officially the supreme ruler of this Brawnafier!  Now then, let's get started.  My sensors indicate that you're currently 5 foot five and weigh about 104 pounds with about 28 percent bodyfat.  Does that sound correct?”

“Yeah, yeah, let's just skip this okay?  It's embarrassing.”

“Normally I wouldn't be able to, but you're in charge here!  Okay, so to start..”

“Level three workout.  Do it.” Penny impatiently commanded.

“Wow, that's super risky, but you got it!”  The machine assembled itself for Penny to perform the workout she requested.  

The scrawny teen got into position to begin the routine.  She started pushing against the resistance pads for a chest exercise, but found that she couldn't budge it no matter what she tried.  “Start beaming Vibro-Nutrients into me!” Penny yelled out.

“As you wish.” The machine complied with her request.

A wide grin met the teen's face as she could feel a veritable surge of power course throughout her entire being.  She tried the exercise again, pushing against the resistance pad with all of her might, and almost immediately new found muscles began to burst forward in order to accommodate the task.  

Penny couldn't believe it!  At last, she was going to be the powerful one in the family.  No, not just her family, in her life!  Only she had had access to a genuine original Brawnafier!  Penny ordered the Brawnafier to continuously pump her full of nutrients as she worked out – there was no time to waste.  She continued with the level three workout, reveling in each moment of growth it brought to her.  

After just a few mere exercises, her entire body was no longer recognizable.  The former 'string bean' now had a body that rivaled any elite senior athlete at her high school.  Her formerly loose-fitting tank top was now tight against her burgeoning pecs, and her jeans were filling out as well.

“Double the amount of Vibro-Nutrients being emitted.” Penny commanded.

“Affirmative.” The voice responded before doing just that.

“Oh god...” Penny moaned under her breath.  “Workout level 5, do it!”

The appropriate apparatus whirred as it shifted to her specifications.  Penny got into position for a squat.  As the weight fell onto her shoulders, it pushed her onto the ground – but instead of severe injury, the immense number of vibro nutrients flooding through her body triggered an immense growth spurt.  Her legs expanded so rapidly that her jeans began to split, becoming threadbare from the abuse.

After a few more moments of growth, Penny possessed the strength to stand up with the weight on her shoulders.  As she stood completely straight, she noticed her perspective had changed as she had also gained multiple inches of height from the growth.  “Don't need these anymore...” Penny observed as she reached down and grabbed her jeans, ripping the cloth off as if it were tissue paper.

She proceeded to finish up the rest of the exercises before ordering the machine to power up to level 6.  For the next 10 minutes or so, Penny continued this process, although she found her strength wasn't increasing nearly as quickly as it initially was.

Just then, the front door started to unlock.  Penny's younger brother Preston emerged, having just been dropped off by his friend's mother.  “Hey, Penn!” He yelled out.  “I'm home and I just won my chess tourna-” he stopped mid sentence as the sight of a massive muscle-bound woman caught his gaze.

“P.. P-Penny!?” he yelled out.  The woman sitting in front of the machine was truly massive.  She had the appearance of a world class male bodybuilder, but had a layer of soft feminine skin over her immense muscles.  

“Hey Preston.” Penny replied with a cool smirk.  “What's up?”

“Uh... How...” was all the stammering boy could muster.

The older sister stood up to her proud new height of a little over 6 foot.  She was nearly as tall as their brother Phillip, and was undoubtedly more muscular.

“Oh, you know.  Just some good old fashioned exercise.” Penny strode towards him, veritably towering in both size and muscularity.  She bent down a bit, causing her immense, thick midsection to bulge forward as she flexed her right arm, causing the 17 inches of sheer power to rise at attention.

Shaking, Preston raised his hands and allowed himself to feel the mound of muscle.  He couldn't wrap his hands around it if tried, and with a gentle squeeze understood their prodigious density.

“Makes Phil's arms feel like wet noodles, huh?” Penny snickered.

Preston gulped.  “I wouldn't go that far... but I would estimate your arms are about 48% harder.”

Penny rolled her eyes.  “Even in the face of a veritable goddess you're still a wise-ass.” she placed her hands on her hips, a position that commanded natural dominance when coupled with her monstrous physique.

“Better to be a wise-ass than a dumb-ass.” Preston retorted as he always did to that insult.  “So... I'm guessing you somehow got an original Brawnafier.” he quickly deduced.

“Yeah.” Penny affirmed.

Given the boy's natural curiosity and desire to learn, the Brawnafier itself was more interesting than his amazonian sister.  He quickly started moving right past her to better observe the miracle machine.  

“Hey!” Penny yelled out before grabbing the back of his shirt and effortlessly lifting his light frame into the air single-handedly.  “What do you think you're doing?”

Preston was taken aback by the sheer force Penny's arms wielded.  “I-I just want to look at it!”

“Don't you dare touch the control panel unless I tell you to, got it?” Penny commanded.

“Y-yeah, got it!” he quickly barked.

Penny dropped the boy, who without missing a beat scrambled over to the machine.  His lips practically salivated at the sight of it – perhaps the most impressive feat of engineering in human history.  Everything from the machine's battery, its on board AI, the operating system, the progressive electromagnetic resistance, and most of all, the Vibro-Nutrients, all seemed to be marvels only possible in science fiction.  

Preston's mind was racing, but as much as he wanted to fully study the Brawnafier, he knew he needed to divert his attention to the more immediate situation – his sister.  “So... Penny...” he started.  “How long have you been using it for?”

Penny looked up at the clock.  “I about half an hour or so.”  

“What was your, er, body goal?”

“To get as big and strong as possible, obviously!”

Preston blinked a couple times, recalling the sheer size of Cheryl and the woman who called in during the infomercial.  

“My growth is kind of slowing down a bit though.” she admitted with a frown.

“Oh, right.  The Vibro-Nutrient upper limit theory.”

“The what?  Wait, what do you know about Vibro-Nutrients?”

“As much as someone can learn publicly, combined with my own research and theories of course.”  Preston explained.  “Anyway, the theory is that each person has a natural limit for how many Vibro-Nutrients they can benefit from.  Obviously men have an extremely low limit, and in some cases probably can't hold any at all.”

“So am I at my limit?” Penny asked, disheartened.

Preston shook his head.  “Not quite, but you do seem to have hit what I'm calling the first plateau.  Unfortunately we've had no way of testing how to get past that plateau, or how many plateaus there are, or if there is actually a true upper limit...”  

“Until now that is!”

The much smaller boy nodded.  “True, but I don't know how much time we have.”

“What do you mean?  The machine is here now, in our living room!”  

“Well, first there's this little problem that the entire government is trying to crack down and prevent any of these things from existing within the public grasp...”

“Yeah I disabled the wi-fi.” Penny retorted, cooling observing the back of her nails.

“That's nice and all, but do you really think that nobody is going to notice that a machine worth hundreds of thousands of dollar somehow got misdelivered?  Especially a machine that's essentially on par with a nuclear warhead as far as the government is concerned?”

Penny scratched her head, causing her mammoth arms to reactionary bulge out.  “Well... it must have been quite the screw up for this to arrive here!  I don't see how the police will know.”

Preston sighed.  “First off, there's the issue of our parents.  Even if they're cool with the machine, mom will want to use it.  Then the neighbors will inevitably see the two of you all Brawnafied...  Plus, I'm sure that sooner or later a SWAT team will bust in here just like they did on TV.  No offense sis, but by my estimates Cheryl was probably five times stronger than you are now, maybe more, and they still took her down.”

Penny sighed.  “Fine Preston.  Your boundless logic wins again.  So what's your point?  Can't you just let me have my fun?”

“My point is that we need to take advantage of this while we can!  Test things as much as possible!”  Preston was animated – he could hardly believe that at his young age he would be able to potentially pioneer scientific discovery.

“Oh?” Penny cocked an eyebrow.  “What are you suggesting?”

“Exactly what I said!  We have a cracked Brawnafier!  We need to test stuff now!”

“Like... make me even stronger?”

Preston gulped.  The prospect of making his sister even more powerful was slightly freighting, but he still maintained that scientific discovery was more important than his personal biases.  “Yeah.” he affirmed.

A smile met Penny's face.  “So what are you proposing?”

Preston was already looking over the extensive notes Penny had taken on the Brawnafier's override commands.  “This is... eerily similar to what myself and some others were speculating.  Alright sis you made yourself the root admin, right?  If so you need to give me access to the control panel.”

Penny was somewhat apprehensive, but decided that despite any of their past rivalries, Preston was realistically her only hope of truly becoming extraordinary.  

“Brawnafier.  Give Preston access to the override commands... except for changing the root admin.”

“Penny, are you sure you want to let this person have full control of my non-admin changing processes?” the machine asked.

“Yes.” Penny affirmed.

Without delay, Preston's slight fingers raced across the keyboard.  Within a manner of moments, he was already finished inputting the commands.  “Alright sis, you ready?”

“For what?  What exactly are you doing?”

“Trying a new frequency, just trust me, okay?”

Before Penny could even respond, Preston had already ordered the machine to fire through its console.  The huge girl felt a familiar surge within her.  This time she didn't even need to challenge her muscles for them to react to the vibro-nutrients.  She shot up an extra inch in height and all of her muscles packed on an extra inch or two of their own.  “Yes...!” Penny groaned in near ecstasy.

“Hold that thought.” Preston said before putting in another string of commands and slamming the enter button.  The Brawnafier's vibro-nutrient transmitter came to an abrupt halt, ending Penny's growth spurt.

“Why'd you stop?” the even-larger girl asked, flexing her arms a few times, reveling in their sheer size.

“New idea.” he blankly stated.  “First let's find out how strong you are.”  After another command, the Brawnafier scanned her before the AI voice rang to life “I estimate that you can lift a little over one ton overhead.  Wow!”

Preston nodded.  “Alright, good start.” he said before changing the frequency and commanding the Brawnafier to fire off again.

Penny felt the familiar welling of power within her, but her muscles weren't actually growing. Before she could verbally comment on the phenomenon, Preston had already preempted her.  “Gotta check something.” he said before walking away from the command console and over towards his towering sister.

The much smaller boy knelt down and clasped both of his hands around Penny's right calf and pressed as hard as he could.  The muscle beneath the sheen of skin failed to move whatsoever.  In fact – Preston could tangibly feel the muscles growing slightly denser by the moment.

“Pres I think we both know that's pointless..” Penny noted.

“I know sis... but feel your arm.” he said before letting go of her prodigious calf.  

Penny reached over, flexed her right arm and gave it a squeeze.  “Keep your hand on it for a few moments.” Preston explained before getting back up and making his way over to the Brawnafer's console again.

Penny did just that and her eyes grew wide as she felt the same thing Preston had earlier.  “Preston, you're a genius!”

“Oh... I'm well aware.” he stated with confidence before turning the transmitter off.  He ordered the AI to recalculate Penny's strength.  

“My sensors indicate that you can probably lift one and a half tons with one hand!  That's a 50 percent increase from my last scan. Amazing!”

“Pres...  This alone increased my strength THAT much?” Penny asked, staring in disbelief at her right bicep – its size unchanged.

“Yeah sis, and we've still got WAY more we can do-” Preston was interrupted by the front door unlocking.

Just then, Penny and Preston's parents – Lou and Lily came back from their shopping trip.  The couple were engaging in some idle chitchat until they abruptly stopped - noticing the massive musclebound woman standing in their living room.

“Who the fuc-” Lou started and stopped himself “PENNY!?” he yelled out, craning his head upward to look the tower of muscle in her eyes.

“Oh hey dad, how's it going?” Penny asked with a grin.

The two parents dropped their bags and carefully approached the massive creature.  Every muscle on Penny's frame stood proudly with the slightest effort.  She easily had more muscle mass than both of her parents combined, and their cumulative strength was merely a fraction of her own.

“So... did you guys order a Brawnafier?” Penny asked, reveling in her parents' awestruck expression.

“Uhh. Yeah actually. It's kind of a strange story” Lou started “I really didn't want to get the damn thing, but your mother insisted.  We signed up for the payment plan so we never put a dime towards it.  After seeing the government go nuts shutting these things down we never saw a charge for the machine and presumed it was over with.”

“Looks like someone's going to get fired...” Preston mused.

“Wow honey, I can't believe how strong you are!” Lily yelled out with delight as she lovingly squeezed her daughter's massive arm.

“Do it Preston, show mom and make me even stronger.” Penny commanded.

“Hmm... alright.” Preston started up the vibro-nutrient dispersal again.  

Due to her immense size and proximity to the machine, Penny's body absorbed the majority of the rays – causing her to experience a small amount of growth.  Despite Penny taking the lion's share, some of the Vibro-Nutrients found their way to Liliy.

“Ooooh...” Lily cooed, her long sleeve blouse and dress pants began to fill up with powerful Brawnafied muscle.  “This is awesome sweetheart!” Lily squealed, reaching over and feeling the rock-hard muscle beneath her shirt.

“Turn it off Pres!” Penny yelled out.

“Err, why?”

Lily let out another moan as she felt more of the empowering vibrations enter her form.  Her muscles continued to sprout at an almost instantaneous rate – her clothes were about to practically burst at the seams!

“No!” Penny yelled out before giving her mother a hard shove, sending the woman flying away from the Brawnafier.  Lily let out a shriek of pain as she crashed into the wall behind her, falling to her knees.  

“What the hell!?” Preston and his father both yelled.  Lou ran over to his wife while Preston shut the Brawnafier's nutrient transmitter down.

“Are you alright dear?” Lou asked, cradling his surprisingly muscular wife.  

Lily let out a cough.  “I'm alright.” she said before slowly getting on her feet.  

“What's gotten into you young lady?” Lou barked.

“I'm the only one uses the Brawnafier, got it!?” Penny shouted.

“That's it.  I'm calling the police.” Lou flatly stated before turning heel.

“No!” Penny yelled, and blistering speed ran in front of her father.  The movement of her immense frame caused the entire floor to shake.  As reached her destination, she physically placed herself in a position of dominance over Lou  “Nobody does anything yet!”

Lou stared at the towering monolith of muscle in front of him.  He knew there was no way he could possibly get past without her consent.  “A... apologize to your mother!” he demanded.  His voice was wavering – a characteristic much unlike him.

Penny smirked.  “Aww, little daddy's afraid?” she teased before patting him on the head in a patronizing fashion.  “Sorry mom, I knew you'd be fine thanks to the power up though.  Anyway.  You're both going to watch as I get powered up even further.  Got it?” she slowly strode back towards the Brawnafier.

Both awestruck and terrified, Penny's parents had no choice but to watch.

“Wh-what are you going to do if and when the SWAT teams come Pen?” Preston asked concerned about how this massive influx of power was affecting his sister's psyche.

“Simple.  They try to stop me, I kill them.” Penny explained with a smirk.  “They may have taken Cheryl down, but she made no attempt to harm them.”

“Penny!” all three of the other family members cried out in unison.  

“That's outrageous!”
“Barbaric!”
“That's not okay.”

Penny shrugged.  “I'm the new boss.  Both in this house and outside of it.  Got it?”

“Can't you at least help your mother get a bit fitter?” Lily asked.  “I mean a tiny dose helped me this much!”  She flexed her newly minted arm, relishing in the powerful bump that rose up.

Penny shook her head.  “No.  From now on nobody other then Preston comes near the machine!  Or else!  Now then little brother.  How many more frequencies did you say there were for me to power up with?”

“Uhh... let's just say there's a lot.”

“Be specific with your new master.” Penny commanded.

“I don't know the exact number.  It's potentially thousands... but aren't you already strong enough?  Nobody can challenge you!”

Penny laughed.  “I'm not even close to being done. Get to work on the next one, or I'll do it myself.”

Preston gulped.  He had to do something... fast.  “Just hold on a sec sis.. I have an idea to give you an even bigger power up than before, okay?”

There was something off with Preston's voice, but Penny chalked it up to the boy being immensely afraid of his sister's newly declared queenhood.  “Alright, this better be good or else I'm just going to program the frequencies on my own.”

Preston gulped again.  He knew this was his one shot.  After placing all the calibrations, he triggered the command.  The Brawnafier began to whir extremely loudly as it started to charge up.

“I don't feel anything.” Penny blankly stated, unamused.

“Hold on sis, it's going to give you a REALLY big boost, okay!?”

Suddenly, the cackling of a loud electrical jolt rang throughout the house!  Every hair on Penny's head stood up as electricity coursed through her huge frame.  After a few moments, the massive girl fell to the ground with a loud crash.  Penny was knocked out stone-cold.

“Jesus Preston!  Did you kill her!?” Lou yelled out, rushing over his daughter's twitching body.  

Preston shook his head.  “That voltage could have probably killed a regular person, but there's no way that it could possibly have killed her.” he explained.

Lou lightly slapped Penny's face “Welp, she's definitely out cold.” he announced.

“Yeah.  No doubt about that.  Now we need to move her away from the Brawnafier before she soaks up any more Vibro-Nutrients.”

The small boy made his way over to his unconscious sister and grabbed onto a meaty limb.  “Comeon!  We don't have that much time!” he ordered.  His parents snapped to and grabbed onto the towering hunk of muscle.  

“Heave!” Lou yelled out and the family pulled with all of their might.  

As Lily pulled, her muscles spasmed again, engorging themselves in another miniature growth spurt.  The seams of her blouse burst open as newly minted muscles emerged.  “Mmmm...” she cooed.  

After Lily's short power up, Penny's body began to slowly move across the ground.  After dragging her a good 20 feet away Preston announced it was safe to let go.  With a loud thud, Penny's limbs hit the ground again.

“So... boys.” Lily started.  “What exactly do we do now?”  She placed her hands on her hips, feeling more confident than ever thanks to her improved body.

Preston's sharp mind had already thought up a solution.  “I think our only choice now... Is to make mom even stronger than Penny.” he concluded.  

“Even stronger than Penny!?” both parents responded in near-unison.  Lou's voice was that of fear, while Lily's was excited and curious.

“Yeah.” Preston confirmed.  Considering how immensely powerful Penny is now... Mom's going to need to be least two or three times stronger to handle her.  Preferably more.  We also don't have much time to waste - Penny will wake up within an hour.”  Preston explained, surprisingly calm as he made his way over to the Brawnafier's input panel.  “Stop standing there slack-jawed, there's no time to waste!”
