Zarax was busy studying a group of young humans nearby. He had heard stories about the aliens that looked like Time Lords from a captured Sontaran. He had only met a Time Lord once. Long ago, he met The Doctor in battle but only survived at The Doctor's whim. He wanted revenge for the insult and chose to take it out on his beloved humans.
He thought about what to do next. The two kids played in the sand nude while their mother who was pregnant with another kid tried to read a book. "They are the first" Zarax said. He put down his video scanner and pulled out a strange looking metal rod. Zarax pointed it at the small family and out shot a red beam engulfing them in a red transparent bubble. "Sunset already?" the mother asked noticing the yellow light was replaced with red. The kids along with her stared up and felt a funny free falling feeling. The bubble vanished seconds later but now the kids and mother were no bigger than 3 inches tall. Zarax walked over to them. The mother shook her head trying to not throw up from the sudden feeling and felt the sand vibrate. She looked over to see a huge bare foot and followed it up to see a man in his 20's staring down at her grinning.
The woman gripped her two kids and held them close from fear. Zarax bent down and grabbed all three of them. The woman yelled to let them go and wriggled in his grip. Zarax smiled at their useless struggles and tossed them into a box he had stashed away. "Now be quiet in there" he said slamming the lid shut. He began to walk back to his vehicle that he had taken from a unlucky human the other day and was stopped by a little girl. "Have you seen my mommy?" the 6 year old girl asked who was lost. Just then, the family of three began screaming for help when they heard another voice.
"What's that sound mister coming from the box?" the little girl asked hearing tiny cries for help. "Nothing for you to be concerned about human...I mean girl" Zarax said annoyed. "Let me see! Let me see!" the girl said reaching for the box. The girl was so quick Zarax had no time to dodge and the box was knocked from his hand. The box fell to the sand and the lid popped open. The girl was amazed at what she saw. "Tiny people! How did they get so small mister?" she asked. Zarax grinned. His grin was broke when he heard a woman shouting. "Jenny! There you are! Do go off on your own like that!" the 25 year old woman said. She saw Zarax next to her and became worried. His odd grin he was showing gave her the creeps. But what she saw next really freaked her out.
"Oh my god are those real people!" she cried. "Yes they are" he said. "Please help us!" the shrunken woman cried. "She won't be helping you I'm afraid" Zarax said pulling out the shrinking device and firing at the woman. In seconds, she was no bigger than the rest of the humans he caught. "Mommy! Change her back!" the little girl cried. "What fun would that be? I know what I can do" Zarax said blowing a breath at the girl. Zarax's species and a unique ability. Mixed with his saliva was a mind control agent. A small breath put someone slightly under control. A concentrated burst put them under completely.
"Jenny? Jenny! What did you do to her you freak!?" the woman cried. "Little Jenny isn't harmed human. Besides, you should worry about yourself. Jenny you're hungry aren't you?" Zarax asked smiling. "Yes master" the girl answered without emotion. Zarax plucked the woman from the sand and stripped off her bikini. The woman wriggled in his grip. "Open wide Jenny. Master has something for you" he said.
Jenny opened wide. Her mother panicked when she realized what he was going to have her do. "Baby wake up! It's mommy not food!" she cried as he lowered her past the row of baby teeth. Now she firmly rested on her tongue. With his hand, Zarax closed her mouth. "How does mommy taste?" Zarax asked. "Kinda salty, like potato chips" the girl said sucking on her mother. Inside, the mother was screaming when she could get a breath not filled with saliva. "Now Jenny, I know your mother told you not to play with your food. Swallow her" Zarax said.
The girl, under his thrall, tilted her heard back. The mother inside felt the change of angle and began slipping backward. She desperately tried to stop but her bare feet just slipped on the child's tongue. "Don't eat me Jenny! DON'T EAT MOMMY!" *gulp*
The mother made a big lump in the child's throat. Jenny began to choke until Zarax patted her on her back. The lump moved and disappeared past her collarbone. The mother landed in her stomach with a plop. The air burned her lungs and something round bumped into her leg. She felt it and was horrified to realized it was a Cheerio left over from her daughter's breakfast. He freaked out and began to pound her fists on the stomach walls. Jenny gave a burp which caused what little air to be sucked out.
The mother gasped at the lack of air and began to black out. She collapsed in a pool of stomach acid and silently wept. Her last thoughts were how her daughter would feel if she was aware of what she did one day. The beautiful mother would die in moments never guessing she would be eaten by h little 6 year old girl.
"Hmm...what to do with you. I could shrink and eat you too. No I got a better idea for you. Come with me Jenny. I could use you as bait to bring others" Zarax said.
