You looked at the indention of poor Mary's face on the bronze flesh of the much larger predator next to you before you looked up at his face and gulped in fear as you recognized him. It was Brad, a big mean bully you met back in the water park at Silent Cove. You wished you could rid yourself of the memories of being pushed through his system, and now your beloved Mary was sadly going to experience the same thing.
"Sup, Squirt", he chuckled. "Didn't think I'd see you again."
"Y-you...", you gulped in fear as you scooted away. "W-what're you doing here?!"
"Hm? Oh, me and my bro moved here months ago. Just thought I'd catch some sun...", Brad then patted his girl-filled gut and licked his lips. "Sample the local cuisine."
Mary's muffled screaming made you angry. You couldn't just let your girlfriend stew away in some big jerk's belly! "Y-you better let Mary out, you big bully!", you yelled.
"Oh? Well what're you gonna do about it, you little snotrocket?", Brad laughed. You yelped as he grabbed your head and pressed your face against his belly, right up to where Mary's face was. "I guess this is your little girlfriend, huh? Well give her one last kiss goodbye, cus this little lady's a permanent resident of Brad Town now!"
You whimpered as you were pressed up against his gut, frustrated at being so close to Mary, but unable to do anything. You hated to say it, but it might be better to let her digest and apologize to her when she reforms. "I'm sorry, Mary...", you whimpered sadly. "I'll make it up to you tomorrow..."
Brad suddenly began laughing and shoved you away. "Didn't you just hear me, shrimp? I said your little girlfriend's staying here forever!" Mary let out a muffled yelp as Brad slapped his belly. "D'you know what forever means?"
"N-nuh uh!", you whined. "Don't you know what happens to people when you eat them here? They digest and get reformed the next day, you big dummy!"
"I didn't say I was gonna digest her!", Brad chuckled. "It's called indosom... ednosam... endisom... anyway, she's staying in my gut until I decide to get rid of her."
Your face turned white with terror. You heard about something like this in class. It was called endosoma. Predators with this ability could keep anyone in their bodies fully intact for as long as they wanted. If Mary wasn't going to be digested, then she could be trapped in this big bully forever, and you could potentially never see Mary again!
Brad then turned her attention to his bulging gut. "Better get used to your new home, little lady... unless your boyfriend's willing to do a favor for me." The jock had a predatory look in his eyes as he looked you over.
You gulped as you felt helpless. Shameful as it was, you often ran away whenever Mary got eaten. It's not that you were a coward. There really was nothing you could do. The bullies were all bigger and stronger than you, and she would be fine come sundown anyway. But this was a different situation. If you didn't do something, you could lose your precious Mary forever.
What will you do?
