Sheik’s Smashing Growth
(commission for Moonlit-Savior)

Sheik grunted as she landed on her side, the rough brick of Hyrule Castle digging into her hip slightly.. Her opponent, the goddess Palutena, casually walked over, twirling her staff idly. “Come now, Sheik, did you really think you could take me on in a fair fight?” she taunted. “You may be a skilled warrior, but it will take more than a few ninja tricks to defeat me.”

The Sheikah warrior glared at her, before pulling out a handful of needles and throwing them. The goddess shook her head in disappointment and cast her Reflect spell, the barrier stopping the needles and redirecting them back to Sheik. She brought her arms up to block, when Palutena dashed over and grabbed her, pummeling her a few times before throwing her over her head. She landed with another grunt, before getting back up. “I won’t go down that easily,” she said, getting into a stance.

Palutena sighed, before Warping over to her. She raised her staff and swung it, the Sheikah blocking the attack. Smirking, the green-haired woman used her Auto Reticle, the three balls of light hitting her in the face. She followed the attack up with a forward smash with her wings, sending Sheik over the edge of the stage.

With some quick thinking, Sheik managed to get herself back up to the edge with her Vanish, grabbing onto it. Before she could pull herself up, she found herself looking Palutena in the eyes, the goddess leaning over the edge, taunting her once more. “How many times do I need to tell you for you to get it into your head? You. Can’t. Win.”

Sheik glared at her once more. “I’ll find a way!” she yelled defiantly, her arms shaking slightly from holding onto the edge for so long.

Palutena shook her head, as if in pity. “Not today, you won’t.” She pointed her staff at the Sheikah warrior. “Auto Reticle!”

The attack didn’t hurt much, but it was enough to cause Sheik to lose her grip. She let out a cry of anguish as she fell, her body being enveloped in a ball of light as she passed the blast line. The light transported her to her locker room, just like every other time she had lost against Palutena. A large monitor on the wall was playing the match results, and was quickly shattered by a tossed deku nut.

“There has to be a way to beat that blasted woman!” Sheik grumbled to herself. “But I’ve tried everything! In a Glory Match, she has the advantage over me…” She crossed her arms and thought it over. “I can’t take any items into a Glory Match, but the rules don’t say I can’t use equipment.” Smirking behind her face mask, she left the room and made her way to the Vault.

The Vault was both a vault, like its name suggested, and an armory of sorts. Every item and piece of equipment not being used in a match was kept in the first room, with more valuable items and prize money being kept behind a locked vault door the size of Giga Bowser.

The only other person in the Vault was Zelda, who was leaving just as Sheik arrived. The Sheikah gave a small hello to her counterpart, before focusing on trying to find something that would give her an advantage.

She walked past the normal items and went straight to the equipment. There was a vast selection to pick from, ranging from boots to gloves to badges. She scoured through everything, trying to find something that could possibly help her.

After an hour of searching, she finally found something. Opening up a small chest, she pulled out a small orb the size of a Smash Ball, colored purple and pulsing periodically. There was a small note with it that simply said “Experimental.” Raising an eyebrow, she looked it over, being careful not to drop it. “What is this…?” she asked herself.

The orb began pulsing at a faster rate, slowly turning red. Sheik’s eyes widened as she felt her body growing warmer, newfound energy filling her limbs. “What in Nayru’s name…?!” she cried out. The redder the orb got, the stronger the feeling became.

A brief spike of pain made her double over, as she felt herself… growing?! How was that even possible?! Her body was slowly inching upwards, her suit growing tighter. Her muscles burned, as if she had just exercised. She glanced at her arms, seeing them beginning to grow outwards. Even her chest and rear were beginning to swell, her suit quickly becoming uncomfortably tight. As if reading her mind, the orb pulsed again, and she felt the strain of her suit lessen, as though it was making her suit grow along with her.

Despite her fear, she held onto the orb with a death grip. Part of her realized that whatever this was, it was her only chance to beat Palutena. She closed her eyes, and let go of any resistance.

Almost immediately, she began to grow faster. Her suit clung to her like a second skin now, her growing body pushing it to its limits. Each breath she took seemingly made her abs bulge outwards, a six-pack showing through her tunic that quickly became an eight-pack. Her back flared out and her chest expanded, pecs growing to almost a foot thick as her breasts swelled several cups. Her arms and legs thickened rapidly, her forearms and calves quickly resembling hams while her thighs fought for room with each other and her upper arms fought with her wing-like lats and chest.

Gritting her teeth, she squeezed the orb, trying to syphon as much power from it as she could. Panting slightly, Sheik straightened up as she stopped getting taller at an amazonian seven feet tall, yet her body continued to swell larger the longer she held the strange orb. Her tunic groaned in protest, yet held together somehow. Her shoulders and traps rose above her ears, as her biceps swelled larger than her own head. Her waist widened slightly, allowing more room for her thickening thighs and her amazing abs.

The orb finally cracked in her iron grip, before completely shattering, much like a Smash Ball. Sheik’s eyes widened as one final surge of growth shook her, her already massive muscles and amazing assets adding on pounds of flesh within seconds. After it ended, she panted and looked in a nearby mirror, amazed at what she saw. She had seen Gerudo women before, but she was sure she was larger than any of them now. She lifted one of her boulder-like arms and flexed, the muscle rising up past her wrist.

Sheik smirked behind her mask. With this power, she would definitely be able to defeat Palutena, and anyone else who tried to fight her.
