You set your bowl on top of the 5-10 other dishes in your sink, and decide to head to work. You get in your car and start it up, and you glance up at the rear view mirror, only to see a girl with long, white hair and an all white outfit sitting in your backseat. You freak out and scream at the top of your lungs. The girl reaches up and places her hand over your mouth, muffling your screams. "Shh! Be quiet!" She whispers to you. You're still understandable scared of this mysterious girl, and contemplate getting out of the car and calling the cops or something. Maybe she escaped from a mental asylum or something. You reach for the door handle, only to have the girl reach up and lock the door, keeping you from opening it and getting out. You ask her what she wants with you, and she tells you that she needs you to drive her the the Avalon Genetics building downtown. You ask her why, and she dodges the question, saying that it's "none of your business". You tell her that you need to get to work, and she says that the trip to the Avalon building won't take too long, and that she just needs to do something. You bounce it around in your head, and then decide that there doesn't really seem to be any other choice, so you agree to drive her to the Avalon building. Along to way, she introduces herself as "Dawn" and tells you that she has had abit of a rocky relationship with Avalon, and that she was involved in one of their experiments. You tell her that your name is Alice, and about how you work at the local Walmart as a cashier. She doesn't seem to respond, and just stares out the window. Within an hour, you arrive at the Avalon building, and Dawn tells you to wait there while she goes in. You agree, and while she is in the building, you contemplate leaving and heading on to work. Not like it would matter. She's obviously got her own problems that you don't want a part of. Before you can make a decision, you notice Dawn come running out of the building...with a bulging stomach. She definitely didn't have that when she went in. what the hell?! She hops in the car and tells you to step on it. You start trying to ask what happened, but are cut off by Dawn, who yells for you to get moving. With that, you step on the gas and speed away. The inside of the car is silent for the next 30 minutes, aside from the various groans and gurgles that come from Dawn's huge gut every now and then. After awhile, you ask her just what happened in the building. "Just took care of some business..." She says confidently, patting her distended stomach in satisfaction. "Um...So, what's...um...up with your...gut? It wasn't that big when you went in, right?" You ask, not being able to get over the sounds that sound like muffled screams coming from her stomach.
She asks if you can keep a secret, and you say yeah. She tells you that her DNA was genetically modified while she was still a zygote, and she was raised by a scientist by the name of Luciano Rosa, who she says is pretty much the head scientist at Avalon. You ask her just WHAT was genetically modified in her, since she doesn't look too abnormal(aside from her bulging gut that's pressing up against your seat, pushing it forwards slightly). She explains, while rubbing her stomach, that they had modified her genes to give her elastic skin and organs, and so her organ setup was pretty similar to a snake's, in that they could easily move around if they needed to. Upon hearing this, your heart skips a beat. Could Dawn have...No, she couldn't have...That would be impossible. But...what if...
You regain your mental composure and ask her about the thought that just popped into your head. "That's not a...a person in there, r-right?" You say, not realizing just how crazy you may sound asking that. Dawn responds that yes, it is in fact another person that is squirming around in her stomach at the moment. Your face goes pale as a ghost upon hearing this. Could she have been lying? You don't think so, as she sounded very confident when she said that, and there are still the muffled screams. Are you carrying an honest-to-god maneater in the backseat of your car? You ask her what she plans to do with the unfortunate person, and she responds that she's gonna do what she does to everything in her stomach: digest them. This whole thing causes your whole world to flip upside down twice over. Dawn asks you were you're going. You begin to think. You could always take her back home and maybe ask her more about her abilities; but then again, she could be pretty dangerous. You could easily pull over and make her get out. Could be risky to keep someone like her around you. What should you do?
