Qyfafu took a deep breath. One moment, the fox was working on getting wood for the firepit. He was carrying a couple of logs back to his friend Loku's campsite, when everything went bright green, then black. He woke up with an aching headache. To his left was some fallen trees. It was sunset, so visibility was difficult.

"Good lord. Why do I always fall on my face?"

While Qyfafu was rubbing his head from hitting the ground, he could feel the ground shake. Not like an earthquake, but with a pattern. He turned to see a looming shadow approach. Insticntively, the fox crawled under the fallen trees. The ground stopped shaking, and two massive feet covered in scales stopped right in front of the spot Qyfafu crawled into. They shifted around, looking for something.

"I wonder where that now little fox got to? Not very safe for him out here."

"Little? What does he mean little?"

When the giant left, Qyfafu crawled out from his hiding place. He shook his head.

"Stupid macros causing trouble. Now where did that wood get to?"

Looking around for a moment, the fox found some wood. they were skinnier and a little lighter than his original logs, but it had to do. Qyfafu looked around, trying to find the path back to the camp. Taking a step back, he tripped and fell on something soft.

"Don't be bugs! Don't be bugs! Don't be bugs!"

Looking at what he fell on, Qyfafu vaguely saw something white with gray words on it. It was connected to a long stretch of black.

"Looks like a giant shirt."

Upon closer inspection, one of the sleeves of the massive shirt was under the fallen trees.

"Weird."

When a cold breeze came through, Qyfafu rubbed his shoulder, only to not feel his shirt on him. Feeling a bit lower, he couldn't feel his pants either. Looking back at the giant shirt, he saw the size of the shirt. It was his size. With his eyes finally adjusting to the dark, it began to come into realization what really happened to him.

"Dammit! I knew Loku said he wanted to shrink someone at the camp. I should've seen this coming."

Qyfafu took a deep breath, then tossed the wood to the ground. He knew he had to get back to his tent. He stashed some pills to unshrink him because he was always prepared. A few birds were flying around ahead, so he kept low. He was already close to the campsite, but the walk a few minutes just to get out of the woods. He waded through the short cut grass that was up to his waist. He eventually made his way to the bathing house for the whole camp. Walking up to what seemed to be the women's side, he hid under one of the many holes in the concrete wall surrounding the door. He sat for a few minutes, debating if sneaking in was worth it to sneak in.

"If we get caught, I'm blaming you Loku!"

"We're just showering together Alexis. It's not like I've planned anything."

With near perfect timing, a familiar voice was approaching. Qyfafu stayed in his spot, and watched a familiar pair of scaly feet walk by. Peeking out, Loku was accompanied by a vixen he did not recognize.

"Shrink your friend and pick up a chick. Sounds about right for him."

Before the door closed, he could see that Loku was carrying his duffel bag. Seeing a small space under the door, Qyfafu ran to it and crawled under. This was his chance to get back to his campsite and get back to normal. The dragon and vixen entered the first shower stall. Looking up, there were only a few other showers being used. The fox crept along the wall, trying to be as unseen as possible while walking the equivalent of a city block. After a moment of sneaking, he had finally gotten into the shower stall. Loku and Alexis had just started the shower and closed the curtain behind them. Qyfafu ran up to a leg of a small bench Loku's duffel bag was sitting on. He had peeked his head out when the shower curtain opened, and his dragon friend had stepped out. He took a few steps towards the small fox, and began rummaging through his bag. It was the first time the dragon was seen since Qyfafu shrank, and it was very intimidating to see him at this new size.

"There it is! Can't shower without my scale scrubber."

Loku zipped his duffel bag up, and walked back to the shower. He barely noticed his tail hitting the strap of the bag, allowing it to slide to the floor. Knowing this was his only chance to get back to his tent safely , Qyfafu ran to the strap. Using his claws for extra grip, he climbed his way up what felt like the world's flimsiest rope ladder. After what felt like ages, the mildly terrified fox had made his way on top of the bag.

Qyfafu would've taken a breather to relax, but the sound of the water turning off got his adrenaline right back up. He saw a side pocket of the duffel bag, and immediately dove in. It seemed to be just in time, as the curtains opened as soon as he was inside. All Qyfafu could see was the two titans talking as they were drying off from their shower. The walk back to camp felt short, as most of it was a very small fox being bounced around. When things finally did stop shaking, he could finally hear what they were saying.

"Come on in Alexis."

"Why thank you."

With a lurching feeling and a sudden jolt, Qyfafu could tell the duffel bag had been tossed to the side. Pushing his way to the top, he managed to get out of his hiding place in his friend's bag. He leaned against the bag, finally relaxing after the jarring events.

"What do we have here?"

A massive, orange hand wrapped around Qyfafu. He was brought to the faces of the dragon and vixen he had been following. While Alexis looked at him with curiousity, Loku didn't look all too happy.

"Seems like a micro made his way in here."

"That's no micro Alexis. Just my shrunken friend."

Alexis turned her focus to Loku, who could see he had not said the right thing.

"You shrank your own friend and left him in your duffel bag?"

"No! I shrank him out in the forest."

"In the forest?! What if a feral animal had gotten to him?"

"Um...I..."

Alexis had punched Loku square in the chest with her free hand, and held Qyfafu close to her face as she left the tent.

"I can't believe your friend shrank a cutie like you, then left you all on your own."

"When he sees a cute girl, he tends to get trigger happy with his shrink ray to get me out of the way."

Alexis kissed the shrunken fox. A kiss that covered most of his torso.

"Well tomorrow I'll make him unshrink you."

Qyfafu chuckled, then spent the rest of the night eating giant smores.
