Hot Summer Bakin' Makin'

Summer sure is a great season. Pools, heat, lemonade stands, heat, the occasional blood moon, sweltering heat, summer vacation, and hot temperatures.

“Bake sale! Get your muffins, donuts, doughnuts and cookies here! Support your local, uh…”

Two girls sat near a table somewhat filled with baked goods, mostly just cookies. To the left was a tanned plainswolf with green hair, advertising the sale of sweet treats. To the right was a pale skinned, white haired snow wolf wearing a bikini top and bottom and holding a giant stone mallet with one hand to stop any would be petty thieves from stealing their limited supply of tasty foods.

“Yeah! Uh… support your local puppers!” the pale skinned girl said, blushing as a few onlookers stared at her swimwear clad body and pudgy belly. The embarrassed snow wolf leaned over to her business partner and whispered, “Cest? Can’t we just tell them we need cash for bus fare? I, um, I really don’t like to lie.”

Cest whispered back. “Eku, you ate most of the inventory you baked. We had to raise the prices to compensate for that and, well…”

Cest gave an adorable face to a passing man, giving the cutest little yelp she could give in order to attract his attention. He didn’t even bat an eye.

“Prick,” muttered the annoyed Cest. “Anyways, where was I?”

“You said something about compensation,” answered Eku.

“Yeah, I…” Cest placed her hand on her head. “Ugh, I forgot what I was going to say. Still, excellent idea to wear a bikini! That’ll attract loads of customers!”

“Cest, I used to live in the mountains. You know I don’t handle heat well.”

Cest poked at Eku’s bulging stomach. “Whatever the case, it certainly lets your adorable tumtum hang free!”

Eku yelped and placed her hands near her mouth as her belly received an onslaught of pokes and jiggling. “C-Cest!”

Several passing by folks turned their attention to the giggling, poking plainswolf and the uncomfortable bikini-clad, jiggling snow wolf. A few of them just stared while others walked up to the two to see what the commotion was. An on looking mother shielded her young pupper’s eyes from the girls.

Night arrived and the street lamps were all on, except for maybe one or two. The last piece of pastry was sold to a manly looking neko. Cest was growling at the cat dude, but Eku held her at bay.

“Thanks for your patronage, sir!” Eku said in delight to the man. She was holding off Cest with relative ease.

As the man walked off, taking a bite of the baked good, Eku let Cest out of her grasp and began packing up. Fortunately for them, the plates they brought were disposable. No need to pack them up as they could just throw them away. Hopefully Greenpeace wasn’t lurking nearby.

Cest was busy counting the profits. “Geez Eku, you’re a wolfgirl like me, right? So how is it you can stand those things?”

Eku cleared the table off and began folding it up. “You mean cats? I think they’re kinda cute. Besides, nothing good can come from being mean to others. Especially those you don’t know.”

“I still don’t like cats. Their stupid ears, long tails, and overall fluffiness just pisses me off!” Cest growled a bit.

“You just described yourself and me in general.” Eku stroked her fuzzy tail. The humid summer heat was making it all frizzy. At least she didn’t have to use her Zweischlygel to pound on any would be thieves. All in all, the day went by smoothly. Sure there was a guy that tried to hit on the pale, white wolf, but Cest drove the dude away with threats of pummeling and biting him. Eku merely blushed at his somewhat perverse comments, thinking they were compliments on her figure.

As the two walked on carrying the fold-up table, box of cash, and a giant stone hammer, Eku felt her bikini top loosen a bit, no longer digging into her breasts. Her pale skin slowly became a light red. “Oof, I think I got sunburnt today.”

Cest stared at her surrogate sister’s reddening skin and noticed the environment around them was turning a bit red as well.

“Hmm?”

The tan wolfgirl stared up into the sky and saw the culprit. “Aw Eku, you’re not sunburnt. It’s just the blood moon we got tonight. Kind of pretty, isn’t it-“ Cest’s mouth went agape when she looked back at Eku.

“What? Do I have something on my face?” Eku had to slightly look up to keep her eyes on Cest’s. She also had to hold onto her bikini to prevent it from slipping off of her, a feat surprisingly difficult while holding a mallet that became slightly harder to keep a grip on.

“Eku! You’re getting…” Cest walked up, or rather down, towards the snow wolfgirl. “You’re getting smaller!”

The adorable Eku was about tall enough to have her head go face first onto Cest’s belly button.

“W-what!? Oh man, what phase is the moon at right now?” Eku looked up and saw that the red moon was edging between new moon and waxing crescent. “Well, that explains it.” Eku shrunk some more, now reaching around Cest’s knees.

Cest knelt on her knees, poking the adorable Eku as she became smaller and smaller. The little pup girl didn’t bother to try and hide her nudity anymore.

“St-stop it Cest.” Eku’s voice was positively squeaky. “I can’t believe I forgot to check the lunar schedule today.” The little girl was around 8 inches tall now.

As Cest kept poking and petting her, Eku’s shrinking hands could no longer keep a grip on her hammer. The handle of her Zweischlygel flew off as the mallet rotated in the air and began its descent.

*SLAM!*

Cest just knelt there in shock, her hands were almost caught in the hammer’s blow. Shaking her head back to its senses, the plainswolf used all of her strength to lift the extremely heavy piece of stone off of Eku.

“Oh geez Eku are you- oh. Why was I expecting something else to happen?”

Eku was a small, thin disc on the ground, about the size of a drink coaster. The adorable canine’s face was looking up, her tiny breasts were flattened and stretched over her stomach which poked its belly button out a bit. Eku’s butt was sticking out as well, covering a bit of her backside. Even her tail was curling around her.

“Oooooogh~” moaned the circular flat wolf. “How much longer are we from home?”

“We’ve almost reached the bus stop. On the bright side, you probably don’t have to pay for your fare.”

Cest placed the disc’d Eku on her head, wearing the poor girl as a mini beanie. They would have to come back for the hammer tomorrow.

Cest sat on the bus bench, kicking her legs in the air while waiting for their transport home. She would occasionally touch her head to make sure Eku was still there.

“We’ve been here for who-knows-how-long and the bus still hasn’t arrived! What kind of bullsh-“

Cest saw the bus schedule as she began her tantrum. The last bus of the day left around 6’o clock, long before Eku’s lunar lunacy kicked in.

“Oh c’mon! Really!?” Cest stomped on the floor. “This day has been kind of sucky, eh Eku?”

There was no response.

“Um, Eku…?”

Cest placed her hand on her head. She felt her own hair instead of Eku’s smooth skin.

“EKU?!”

“I… I’m down here…”

Cest looked down at her feet. The little disc was facing face first on the ground, her flattened butt and “other part” clearly exposed. Cest reached down and picked her sis off from the floor.

“You enjoying yourself there?”

Eku didn’t respond. She started to feel something weird in and around her.

“Ah well, I’m sure I can handle a walk back home.”

Cest held onto Eku as if she were carrying a CD. As soon as she left the bus station, the space between her index finger and thumb holding her sister became larger. A few seconds later, Cest felt a ball in her hand where Eku should be. Confused, the plainswolf looked at her palm and saw the expanding sphere of what used to be drink coaster.

“What the? How are you…?” Cest looked up at the sky. The blood moon was now a bit more filled out into a waxing crescent. “Oh, another moon phase. That was quick.”

Cest held onto the Eku ball. The snow wolf was slowly but surely inflating like a balloon. Literally! Eku’s features, hair, limbs, and even face, flattened against her expanding form, eventually looking like colored drawings plastered against stretching rubber. As Eku grew in size, the top half of her form rounded out while the bottom half took on a bloated cone shape. A few seconds later, the adorable little pup was a foot and a half large balloon.

Cest squished Eku bit between her hands, causing the bulbous balloon to expand and bulge out in some areas.

“Ha ha! How do you deal with lunar eclipses?”

Eku merely gave a pitiful, pleading look. As Cest kept squishing and playing with the doggy balloon, she looked up at the sky once more.

“Say, aren’t blood moons generally full moons or something?”
