"At long last" he breathed, approaching the pedestal, arms reaching out. "After all this time...it's smaller than I imagined"

"Hold on" his assistant said, flipping hastily through his notebook. "I want to make sure we dealt with all the traps"

He ignored him, once he got his hands on that jewel, no trap would stop him. As soon as his hands touched the smooth crystal, he felt power surge up his arms, making his muscles jump. So quick? He could feel it coursing through him rapidly. It was too much! Part of him wanted to throw the idol away, but he grit his teeth and held on, it would be worth it, sooo worth it once he got passed the initial shock.

He held the jewel close, waiting for the internal powers to equalise, pain quickly being replaced with pleasure. His muscles jumped and bulged, he could feel them swelling, his trousers getting tighter, chest hugging his chest. Yes, this was what he wanted.
