Lara Croft and the Orb of Fertility

{Disclaimer}

 

����������� The jungle was a cacophony of noise.Monkeys screeched, birds cawed, and occasionally one could hear a panther roar. Another sound entered the rest as the lone woman hacked her way through the underbrush. Normally, venturing into this harsh rain forest alone would be suicidal, as there are dangers beyond comprehension in the jungles of the Congo. However, this was no ordinary woman. This was Lara Croft, the legendary Tomb Raider.Despite her extraordinary abilities, she was not stupid, and had originally brought a tour guide, along with a group of men to help her excavate the temple which she was currently heading towards. But they had not survived the ambush which the pygmy residents of the temple had laid for them. Lara, as the sole survivor of the ensuing battle, was now alone.

����������� She finally reached the pyramid, which was shaped exactly like a Mayan temple. Rightfully so, as the two were built by the same civilization. The civilization which Miss Croft was about to prove existed. Lara bounded the steps, her bountiful bosom bouncing along. She was dressed in a light blue tank top, and had a sport bra on, but that did not stop her large breasts from wobbling as she eagerly ascended the stairs. The temple was expectedly dark as she entered. Lara lit a flare, and got a look at her surroundings. She removed her pistol from its holster and raised it, in case there were any remaining pygmies. The room was huge, and opened up into a massive sanctuary. As she entered the hall, she saw two massive statues of spear-wielding giants at the end of the room. Lara dropped the flare in the center of the room so that she wouldn�t have to carry it around, and got out her other pistol. For some reason she had a bad feeling about this.

����������� As Lara advanced towards the giant statues, she stepped on an upraised circle on the floor, which turned out to be a button to activate a booby trap. Lara immediately ducked, expecting spears to shoot out from the walls, as usual, but looked up when she heard the grumbling of stone against stone. �Oh, shit,� she said as she realized that the giants were alive. She immediately stood up and began firing her two semiautomatic pistols at the heads of the two giants as fast as she could. The bullets ricocheted off the stone faces, causing little effect. As the two living statues moved towards her, they began to smile.

����������� Several minutes later, Miss Croft stood panting for breath amidst a pile of rubble, waiting for the dust to settle. She was completely out of ammunition for the second time in her life, and really hoped there weren�t any more giant stone statues. As she tried to regain her energy, Lara leaned against the wall in between where the two statues used to stand. Unfortunately for her, she depressed yet another button in doing so. A trap door opened up, and Lara instantly found herself sliding down a smooth ramp into the darkness.

����������� Lara slid to a halt at the bottom of the ramp, and got up and brushed herself off. She didn�t light a flare, for the room which she had tumbled into was already dimly illuminated. At the very end of the long room sat a beacon of white light atop a spire. Seeing as there was nothing interesting about her end of the hall, Lara started walking towards the light, making sure not to activate any booby traps on the way. She came to the light, which was a ball of pure crystal, shining with an inner glow that she couldn�t explain. At the base of the small spire was a tablet with hieroglyphics. Lara wasn�t fluent at reading Mayan, and had originally brought a translator, but thanks to the pygmies, that just wasn�t going to happen. She could get the basic gist, however, as it was very similar to Egyptian hieroglyphics in some ways.

����������� According to the tablet, long long ago there was a famine in the village near this temple. The tribe sent a group of warriors to the temple in order to ask for the gods� help, but only one woman had made it thanks to the temple�s �eternal guardians�. It must have meant the stone statues which were now a pile of debris on the temple floor. The woman had fallen into this room, and had found the light. It was at this point that Lara couldn�t decipher the story completely. Somehow, apparently, the woman touched the orb, and after doing so was able to feed the entire village. She had single-handedly ended the famine, and the village praised the gods.

����������� Lara didn�t know what had happened to the woman that could allow her to feed an entire village. However, Lara did know one thing. The village was in famine again, and the people were starving to death. They had been very cooperative with her going to the temple when she had asked; perhaps this was why. They needed her to touch this orb so that she could feed their children. Lara raised her head and looked at the orb apprehensively. It was such an innocent-looking sphere of light. She raised her hands to the orb and held them just around it, not quite touching it. She was still deciding whether or not this was a good idea. She didn�t like the thought of not knowing what would happen when she touched it. However, when she considered the starving villagers, she knew she had to. Lara placed her hands on the orb.

����������� A brief explosion of white light filled the small room. The light was a very warm, pleasurable sensation to Lara. Suddenly, the illumination stopped. The orb had vanished, and Lara was left in the pitch black room. However, as she began to fumble for a flare, a she heard a grumbling of stone, and light began to enter the room. A passageway was opening up in front of her, and it led to the outside. Lara climbed the stairs that directed her back into the jungle. As she came outside, she looked herself over. There was nothing different about her body, and she didn�t feel any different. The orb seemed to have had no effect at all. Perhaps the ability would be discovered upon reentering the village. Lara began to head back down the long path towards the village, having learned enough about the temple for the day.

����������� Miss Croft had traveled through almost a mile of jungle before she noticed the change. She had been adjusting her bra much more than usual, even for a trek through the jungle. It was a habit to fiddle with her bra straps as she moved along, seeing as they required more attention than normal. However, she had been adjusting them almost constantly, and the pain from them digging into her shoulders seemed to be getting worse as she moved along. Lara stopped to see what was going on. Looking down at her breasts, she saw that they were bulging out of her bra. She adjusted them again, trying to force them into the cups, but it was no use. �What in the�� Lara said aloud as she pondered what could be causing her boobs to resist captivity like so. Instantly, the answer sprang into her mind. �Bloody hell!� Lara said, and began to run down the path towards the village. If what she thought was happening was really happening, then she didn�t have much time.

����������� Lara�s worst fears were confirmed as she felt the effects of her breasts expanding larger as she moved through the jungle. Her bra straps were digging into her shoulders painfully, her boobs were bouncing more and more with every step, and the weight on her shoulders and back was growing harder and harder to cope with. Larger and larger Lara�s breasts grew, already three cups larger than their original size. Her 38DD bra, not designed to hold G-cup tits, started groaning. Lara jumped to avoid a fallen tree trunk, and upon landing her bra gave out. Still trying to maintain a quick pace, Lara discarded the tattered remains of the undergarment, and kept going. Her boobs were now only contained by her tank top, which was already excessively tight.

����������� Though she was mostly concentrated on getting to the village as fast as possible Lara couldn�t help but notice how firm her breasts were, and the sloshing sound that they made as they bounced along. She now realized what the tablet had meant by feeding the entire village. Her boobs were magically filling with milk, and there was nothing she could do to stop it. Lara was going to play mother to the whole village until the famine ended. She wished that there could have been another solution. However, her thoughts quickly returned to getting to the village as the strap on her top gave out.

����������� Lara quickly pulled the top over her head and discarded it, as her breasts bounced free from their confinement. She quickened her pace, because despite her being more than halfway there, it was going to become increasingly harder to move if her growth continued unabated. They were already twice their original size, and the rate of expansion had increased. Lara�s skin stretched to accommodate her burgeoning bosom, but not enough to keep her breasts from being unnaturally firm. They stuck out like basketballs from her chest, and if she had tried right then Lara would only just be able to grab her wrists by wrapping her arms around her bust. Now that she had no top to contain her breasts, the only pain she had to worry about was the one caused by the increasing weight. She had to constantly adjust her balance to keep from falling on her face, and the toll on her lower back was killing her. Luckily, Lara Croft is made of stronger stuff than most women, and simply grimaced at her burden.

����������� The village came into view just as Lara lost the ability to run. With only two hundred meters to go, she found that the weight was too much, and stumbled, falling onto the ground. She landed painfully on her breasts, which were now bigger than beach balls. Many would have given up on this journey nearly a mile down the trail, and most of the rest would have given up now, but not Lara Croft. She grunted as she lifted her massive mammaries onto her knees and walked, one step at a time, towards the village.

����������� By the time Lara reached the community, her breasts were the sizes of two bean bag chairs, and still growing rapidly. The men in the village who were still strong enough to leave their huts stared in awe as she hefted her gigantic boobs into the very center of the small town. Lara reached the gathering area and collapsed in complete exhaustion, her breasts spraying a torrent of milk unto the dirt as they relieved their pressure. Despite being completely worn out, Lara gathered her strength and weakly called out to the villagers, inviting them to drink from her bounty. As the starving people received their nourishment, Lara smiled a motherly smile. She had done well.

 

����������� �My god, Lara, look at you,� Arthur remarked as he finally caught sight of her behind the mountains of flesh. �You�re enormous. What the bloody hell happened to you?� he said, gesturing the breasts that were each as big as the helicopter he had rode in on. �I�ll explain it to you later,� she replied with a laugh. �Well, how are we going to get you back to civilization?� Arthur asked. �You aren�t. Not for some time. Not until I�m back to normal,� said Lara. �How long is that going to take?� he asked. �As long as it takes,� replied Lara with resolve. �When these people are strong enough to provide for themselves again, I�ll start shrinking. Leave me a radio and I�ll contact you when that happens.� �I�ll see you then,� he said.

Epilogue

 

���������� Lara waved goodbye to the villagers that she had been feeding now for two months. They were so grateful to her for what she had done, and had nothing to offer in return. However, their gratitude was enough. She looked longingly out the window of the helicopter at the retreating jungle. She would miss the connection which she had shared with them. Lara was nearly fully returned to normal. Her breasts were still about double the size she was before this ordeal, but the shrinkage had slowed nearly to a halt by now. It was looking like she would have to cope with larger boobs than she used to. However, she didn�t mind. It would remind her of this experience. Turning her head towards the front of the helicopter, she began to think about what she would do when she got back. Suddenly, Arthur spoke up. �God I�m hungry. Feel like I haven�t eaten in days,� he said. Lara began to reply, but stopped, and looked at her breasts. Did they just swell a little?

Author�s note- Yes, this story is loosely based on Mr. B�s �Bit by the Bug�. I apologize for the somewhat repetitive plot, but his stories are just so inspiring. Unfortunately, I lack both his attention span and his writing skill, and so therefore this story is a little choppy.�� Despite that, I hope you enjoyed it.
