In which Henry is freed and has an argument with Johnathan
Johnathan’s brothers were pleasant enough, but with the exception of Fred, Henry had a feeling that they had harbored an extreme dislike for him from the very beginning, and that his hiding Johnathan had not helped matters. All four were dark haired and wore swords, like Johnathan himself, and they were all marginally taller than Johnathan, although none of them exceeded three inches. Henry judged them to be between twenty and thirty years of age.
After the introductions, and after Henry renewed his promise to be extremely careful around the tiny people, both Johnathan and Fred drew their swords. Henry tensed involuntarily, but relaxed a little as they cut into the threads binding him, rather than into him. He held as still as he could until the diminutive duo stepped away. Then he inquired, “Done?”
Johnathan nodded. “I’m pretty sure we got them all,” he said. “Go on, get up!”
Henry rolled over onto his side, taking care not to roll on top of anyone, and then pushed himself to his feet. Down on the ground, he could hear Alfonzo making inarticulate sounds, and Erik remarking to Dan, “He’s taller than I’d first thought.”
Henry stretched his stiff and sore muscles, and then crouched down again. “Thanks,” he said. “You can’t imagine how very uncomfortable I’d gotten, lying there.”
“No problem,” said Fred, who suddenly looked very nervous indeed. He tried to smile and failed. “You really are big, aren’t you?”
Henry found his face contorting into a wide grin. “Not where I’m from,” he said. “I’m fourteen, but hardly five feet tall.”
“No, you’re not,” contested Johnathan, getting over his own amazement in a hurry. “I stand five foot seven, and you are most definitely not shorter than I am.”
“No,” agreed Henry, “I’m not shorter than you, but I can say with certainty that I’m five even. We measured every two weeks, you see. And as for you being five foot seven, I’m afraid I must disagree. I’d say you’re much closer to three inches tall.”
“Three inches?” exclaimed Johnathan. “If I were a mere three inches tall, I doubt you would even be able to see me!”
Before Henry could respond, Fred stepped between the two. “Well,” he said, hoping to avert their argumant, “it makes sense that our scales would be different. So, Henry, we seem to be about three inches tall to you?”
Henry nodded. “A bit less, actually,” he confessed. “Johnathan’s about, oh, two and three quarters of an inch tall. You’re closer to three inches, though.”
“And for us, Johnathan’s five seven, and I’m about three inches taller than that. So that means…” Fred trailed off, and, frowning, looked at his feet. Suddenly he glanced up at Henry. “Two feet for us is merely one inch for you!” he exclaimed. “That means everything is twenty-four times as big for us as it is for you!”
“Wow,” said Henry, impressed. “That-that’s a lot.”
“Henry?” asked Johnathan. He sounded a little worried. “You aren’t sick, are you? I can’t think of another reason for a person to sleep all day.”
“How about pure exhaustion?” asked Henry mildly. “I didn’t sleep any last night, so I was pretty tired. I’m all right now.”

The Giant and the Zookeeper - Chapter 5
After Gavin swam off after admitting he didn’t know how to read, Amelia’s eyes scanned the water. After a few moments she saw him appear far off to the left. He was like a child. He had a grumpy frown slapped on his face as he scowled at her, arms folded. Amelia huffed and rolled her eyes, was he trying to be intimidating?
When she looked back over to him he was gone.
“Okay, its okay, he’ll pop up somewhere, don’t get a fright” Amelia instructed herself but couldn’t help but hold her breath in anticipation.
Luckily for her, his giant form was visible underwater as it rose from the depths right in

"W-what?" She called out up to him, knowing it was probably just someone on the walkie.
Gavin respond with a blank expression, just like Amelia expected.
"Of course you didn’t say anything!" She laughed and turned around when she heard the voice again.
"Yes I did" it rumbled deeply.
Amelia's breath hitched in her throat. She grabbed her walkie and pressed the button.
"H-haha guys, very funny prank with Gavin" she forced a laugh
"What are you talking about?" Carrie said
"No idea what you mean" Jack said, confused.
Amelia dropped the walkie and stumbled back, trying to look up to Gavin.
"Y-you can’t talk!" She tried to sou

The Giant and the Zookeeper - Chapter 7
Amelia slept like a rock that night, but the same couldn’t be said for Gavin. He tossed and turned for hours. He spent a good deal of time scowling at Amelia, envious of how she was snoring, in a deep, deep sleep. The reason he couldn’t sleep made him even angrier though. It was something he never saw coming. The bed was too soft.
All his years he had been dreaming of the moment he could slip into a soft warm bed made for him, but now that he was living it, it was dreadfully soft. He hated the way it gave way to his weight and enveloped around him. He looked at the clock on the bedside table and it read ‘3:00 am’. He
