back home

As she was planning, James and Evelyn (Miss Oakwood’s first name) had reached James’ home.

“I do apologise for my appearance; it is the only clothing I could find. But that will all be explained. You son saved my life after school and I accompanied him home to explain.” Evelyn explained to James’ parents, Mr and Mrs Whitedeer. As their name suggested they, like James, were both white cervitaur.

“My goodness, James, what happened?” Mrs Whitedeer asked in alarm. “And why is your belly wiggling? You know it is not healthy for a cervitaur to vore. We are not made for meat.”

“I can explain.” James replied.

“No, allow me, it is why I came.” Evelyn interjected. “You see James ate Miss Green when she attacked the two of us and tried to eat us.” She stated then described the incident in more detail.

As Evelyn explained James felt funny. His meal seemed to spit in two and he felt something hard in his stomach and felt the need to send it up. This was something very common if he ate fruit without taking out the seeds but he knew there was nothing to send up so he resisted the urge. Next his stomach felt all wobbly and his tummy rumbled. This was normally a sign that he was done digesting and the food was moving into his intestines. Then the rumbling stopped. His belly was still large and wobbling with renewed vigour.

Miss Green was not a biology teacher and therefore did not know much about cervitaur biology. For example, she did not know that a cervitaur could control their ability to move hard foods up to their first stomach. That plan was a bust. As for her second plan the stomach had opened but only to let a small amount of digested material into the intestines. Most of what had been let though was truly digested as that matter had sunk to the bottom of the stomach. While her still alive slime, although mimicking digested protein, remained at the top of the stomach due to being mainly hydrophobic. Had she made herself hydrophilic she would have completely dissolved in the acid and that would be the end of her. Her plans had failed and all she could do now was slowly and painfully digest or become hydrophilic and dissolve quick and slightly less painfully. She was about to give up when she felt it, a small amount of her, part that had become hard in hops of going up, had sunk to the bottom and slipped though to the intestines. It was only 2mL but that was enough and in fact ideal as it would likely go unnoticed as she passed though the body. Now she was out her best chance was to focus on that part of her and let the rest of her go. She focused and braced, the pain of all her body dissolving at once overwhelmed her senses. When she recovered she found herself in the intestines, she had not been this small since her parents combined 1ml from each of them to from her, her mothers slime being more dominant making her female. She slowly moved away from the enzymes that were digesting her former proteins and into the small intestines. At this size she had very basic senses, there was no light so everything was black she could fell the bumpy surface around her as and the pressure from muscles squeezing on her but that was about it.
