Maggie sits on the bench and rubs her belly. It is enormous. She can feel the children's movements under her skin. If she feels a little more closely, she can feel the arms and legs and how they move. It feels great. So full, the feeling of hunger is gone. Then she feels the comforting itch as a new contraction pulls her stomach tight. A satisfied gurgle comes out of her belly. She's still debating whether she should really digest the children. She feels movements in her stomach again.
The children are huddled in Maggie's stomach. They feel the probing hands on the belly surface throught the skin. Then the stomach again begins to contract and squeeze the kids inside together. Again, the muscles try to push the children deeper. Lori, who is deepest in her stomach as the first was swallowed, feels the opening pulsate beneath her. The stomach walls form a large funnel, at the deep end of which the opening slowly widens with each contraction of the belly. Lori can feel it with her hands. While the stomach calms down, the opening closes again a little, but in the end it seem to get larger. Lori try to spread her arms to try to support herself with her hands on the sides of the stomach walls to stay away from the greedy opening below her.
Maggie decides to go home. She stand up and quickly collects the children's shoes and clothes lying around. If she spat the kids out again, she is sure the kids will want them back. She stands up and there's that satisfying feeling of fullness again. She goes home, where she can regurgitate the children in peace. As she walks, she realizes that her stomach is trying doing again what it's designed for: digesting food. The muscle contractions are now more frequent and sustained. Again she feels the movements of the children, how they press against her belly. With every step the way along home, the belly swings and shuggles the children inside around.
The children are suddenly thrown around as the stomach tossing around them suddenly tips over and changes position. The movements stop and go into a steady up and down. The children try to pull themselves back and a little up and kick around in the wet stomach again. Again the contraction of the stomach pushes the children back down with urge. Thick slimy wetness covers the walls of the stomach now and also the five friends in the belly. Lori tries not to slip as the wet funnel widens again, while the muscles squeezing the friends from atop on her. The even up and down swings of the belly don't make it any easier for Lori to support herself on the slippery walls. The children slide close together with every step Maggie take, evenly coated in the slime from Maggie's stomach.
Maggie can feel her belly kneading the children. When playing games of swallowing with her nephews, she had several hours to spit them out unharmed. Once even almost a whole day. But her stomach wasn't as active then as it is now. Back then it was more of a soft, slightly damp room where her nephews could play. Not a greedy part of a digestive system. She feels how the children are active inside her belly. Again she feels her stomach rigorously tighten around the children. She begins to hurry.
The children feel the next muscle wave running through the stomach. Again, the muscles press the children together, pushing them together and pushing deeper. Lori is still trying to support herself on the slippery walls. It becomes increasingly difficult to hold during the movements. "Friends, this isn't getting funny anymore," Lori said. "We have to get out of here. The way goes up," as the muscles around her relax again. The girl and boy, who have been pulled into the belly of the 'dragon' by the brave 'knight''s legs, begin to push up with their hands. The esophagus must be there somewhere. "I've got a ring of muscle here with a small opening in it," the boy said. "It has to be the entrance to the esophagus," Lori said. "Try to put your hand through." The boy begins to widen the opening with his fingers and after a while manages to push his hand through. The wet slime everywhere helps him. But the stomach reacts very ungraciously to this attempted escape. The muscles spasm violently around the children and the peristalsis of the esophagus pushes the boy's hand back into his stomach.
Maggie can feel her stomach working on the children. The muscle movements are now almost non-stop. Maggie is really worried now, it's still a long way home. During the short breaks in her digestive system she feels the children struggeling. A slight feeling of heartburn spreads through her. She swallowed, as a particularly violent contraction of her belly sets in again. She feels a slight but significant movement of the children, but down!
The stomach continues to knead the friends violently. The opening under Lori is now quite large. Lori has to spread her elbows almost completely to avoid slipping deeper. The boy tries again to put his hand back up in the esophagus. He almost manages to slide his entire arm in. Then the stomach cramps violently around the children again, and his arm is pressed violently back down into the stomach. The violent movement of the stomach causes Lori to slip. Now showing how wide the opening is beneath her as she slides almost all the way into this wet hole. Only her feet stick out into the stomach. Because of the suddenly free space, the friends slide a good bit downward and deeper into the stomach.
Maggie feels a tug in her stomach as the weight in her stomach begins to move lower. She feels the movements of her stomach and how the group of the children is distributed in her lower abdomen. The belly she's carrying is still huge, but it's much lower when she finally gets home. She practically runs into her apartment, shuts the door behind her and starts gagging. She presses her hands against her belly and tries to spit the children back out again. But only burps and a little slime come. Her greedy belly has already sucked the children into the intestines. There's really only one way out from there. And it's not the same as in...
Lori's slip set off a chain reaction. Lori's stomach outlet has already been widened enought, so that the friends are simply pushed through one after the other by the strong stomach movements and some pushings from the outside. Maggie's attempts to regurgitate the kids come too late, her attempts only push the kids further down her guts. The gastric gate closes behind the last of the friends and the stomach relaxes again. Now slowly knead the intestines the kids and slowly push them slowly deeper into the greedy guts of Maggie.
Maggie is not happy with the situation. Actually, she doesn't want to digest the children. But what should she do now? She doesn't know what to do other than get some sleep.
When she wakes up again, her belly is almost as flat as it was before she swallowed the kids. She feels the urge to go to the toilet. She doesn't really want to know exactly, but when she uses the toilet, a few remains of clothes can be found in the enormous turd. Her belly has done a good work.
She doesn't want to admit it to herself, but she's hungry...
