Day 11 ( Part 2 )

On the signal all the contestants grabbed the pies available and began churning them into their gobs.
The orc's size allowed her to put several pies in her mouth at the same time and then chomp them down. The werewolf relied on speed and hunger, jumping on the pies as if they were her prey and devouring them with ferocity and appetite. The goblin... reached for the custard. Although talented, the goblin leader wasn't very bright.

And Hailey.... did surprisingly well. She was pretty much drinking the pie from the form. As it turned out Hailey was a natural competitive eater. It wasn't just about size, since many competitive eaters can be rather lean.
Having the tactics, willpower and constitution for the task was what mattered more, and Hailey quickly worked up a remarkable pace. Any pie went down her throat in a flash, as long as it wasn't cherry.
By the time she finished half her pies she was well ahead of the others, but soon her pace slowed down. This gave the orc the opportunity to catch up, and her sisters squealed and oinked excitedly as their new husband seemed to be but a bite away.
Seeing her head start being reduced with each bite, she pushed herself into second gear. No way she was going to lose when she got this far already, even if she started feeling a bit sick.
Still she kept going strong, determined not to leave Benjamin in the hands of those pervs.

Only one pie remained, and she was just barely ahead of the orc, whose pace also began dwindling. Hailey poked the crust of the pie with her finger... it was cherry.
Hailey looked at the orc gnawing into her last pie with not a moment's hesitation. It was now or never.
All in.

Hailey closed her eyes, took a deep breath... and buried her face into the pie, devouring it thoroughly with her entire face; eating it more piglike than the actual pig woman.
The little elf had eaten pretty much her own weight in pies, much faster than two of the monsters did... finishing licking up the last crumb from her form...
just a moment after the orc did.
No... not after everything. She did her best, ate like an animal... yet it turned out to be for naught. She slumped back in her seat with her pot belly protruding from under her pirate costume, feeling gross and ashamed.

"And the WIIINNER is..." The goblin judge raised her arm into the air dramatically, announcing the winner in front of everyone, "THE ELFY GIIIIIIRL!!"
"...what?" The orc leader said, looking across the pile of empty forms on the table, when she spotted a single stain of rubarb sauce at the corner of the table, "Ah..." The orc grunted with a smile of amusement and dignified resignation. Those were the rules; you have to finish every piece of every pie on the table.
She would accept this loss with the dignity of a grown woman having finished eating two dozen pies.

"What the crap!" The wolf leader slammed her paws on the table, "We're not seriously gonna give our husband to him!? After everything we've gone through to settle our territory disputes!?"
"Yeah! This is such bullshit!" The goblins yelled and jumped up and own angrily!
The orcs just grunted and squealed angrily, raising their fists, but the orc leader put an end to all protests when she raised her arm, "She won fair an’ square. This elf ‘ere might not be a monster girl, but she’s a better woman than me for sure. "
The bloated Hailey with protruding stomach dizzily fell to the floor when she tried to get off her chair.
"If anyone ‘as a problem with that, then you can take it up with me." The orc leader folded her arms.

The monster girls stood in silence, no one daring to object.
"That settles that then. The boy goes to... was your name Hailey?"
Hailey nodded.
"Hailey... since I couldnae protect my pack's interests, I'll take responsibility, and our pack'll move to a different territory tonight. Congratulations, Hailey. Here’s yer prize." The leader of the orcs opened the cage, unlocked the shackles and removed the ropes and gag from Benjamin.
"Hailey!" Benjamin ran over to Hailey and gave her a hug. Though she might be dizzy, gross, face covered in sauce and with a belly sticking out from her costume, all Benjamin saw was his hero.

"Ben..." Hailey said, between her gasps, "...I totally screwed you over there didn't I? Sorry about that..."
Benjamin smiled and picked Hailey up, carrying her like a bride, "That's fine, Hailey. Water under the bridge." Benjamin carried Hailey out of the building, dropping her gently by the road.
He leaned in to her, and kissed her on the cheek. She looked dumbfounded up at him and blinked.

"S-sorry." He said with a nervous smile, "The pie filling looked so sweet, I couldn't help myself."
Hailey leaned into him and gave him a kiss on his lips, "Sorry," She smiled warmly, "You looked so sweet, I couldn't help myself."
