    The cyan dragon was disappointed with his skinny physique. He tried flexing in the mirror, but saw no change. He climbed into bed, hoping for a better tomorrow.

    The morning came, he made his way down to the kitchen, digging through the cabinets and found a canister of green pills. He decided to take one, but saw no immediate effect.

    Waking up, he was surprised to see his muscles bulging through his tank-top. He raced downstairs, found the canister, took another pill. This time, the effect was instant.

    He transformed into a bodybuilder in seconds. His shirt was ripped due to his enlarged muscles. He took another pill, his joy was evident on his blue, scaly face.

    He dialed on his phone, inviting his friend over. The purple dragon arrived, surprised at his friend's muscular form. He was urged to take a pill.

    The purple dragon swallowed a pill and started to grow muscles. He took two more, matching his friend's form. They excitedly took another one, growing even more.

    Their bodies continued to grow with each pill. The canister seemed to have unlimited pills. Their muscles bulged, their clothing strained under their growing physiques.

    The two dragons looked at each other, joy on their faces. They marveled at their muscular forms, their chests, arms, abs, and legs were now unimaginably muscular.

    They flexed their muscles, their forms now beyond natural. The size of their muscles surpassed even the most dedicated bodybuilders. They were truly massive.

    They smiled at each other, satisfied with their transformation. It was more than they ever dreamed of. The pills had given them the bodies they desired.

    They wondered what to do next, now that they had achieved their goal. They had the bodies they always wanted, but what would they do with their new forms?

    As they pondered, they realized that their journey was just beginning. They had a new form, a new physique, and a whole new world to explore.
