The red-haired teenage girl walked into the gift shop with a relaxed expression on her face, unaware of the shrunken boy standing directly in her path. Marco's eyes widened in terror as she came toward him while feeling her massive footfalls shaking the ground around him. She was already right on top with the shadow of her boot eclipsing the tiny boy.
With her boot descending over him, Marco quickly ran out of its range to avoid getting stepped on. Marco ran as fast as he could and managed to get out of the way just in the nick of time. The giantess' boot landed right where he was standing and Marco looked behind him only to be shocked by how close he came to being squashed like the bug that he currently was.
Marco then looked at the titanic redhead in front of him, marveling at how huge she looked from such a close distance. He then felt her footsteps shaking him up and bouncing him off the floor as he watched her walk through the store to the register. Once there, she sat at the counter and put a name tag on her shirt.
Marco had to squint to see what her name tag said and identified it as "Wendy". "So her name is Wendy. Okay. I guess if I want to get help, I'd better get her attention." Marco said.
He began running behind the front counter while Wendy started reading a magazine with one leg crossed over her other one. Luckily, the shop was empty so he didn't have to worry about anyone else in his way.
It was a long run for the shrunken boy, considering his size, but he managed to make it behind the counter. Marco stopped to catch his breath breath looking up to see Wendy's towering form above him with her large foot in front of him.
"HEY! WENDY! LOOK DOWN HERE! HELP!" Marco yelled. Unfortunately, his cries fell on deaf ears. Wendy just continued reading a magazine while Marco's voice was nothing but an inaudible squeak to her.
"No good. She can't hear me. I need to find another way to get her attention." Marco pondered his next move when he looked up and saw Wendy's ear above him. "Whoa. That's a long way up. But I will get her to lend me an ear."
With that, Marco began climbing Wendy's boot and worked his way up her leg. Pretty soon, he was on Wendy's lap and continued climbing up her flannel shirt. He thought she might feel him touching the fabric of her shirt, but Wendy still didn't register his presence, so he just kept going until he was on her left shoulder.
"Whew. Made it." Marco said, catching his breath. "Okay, now I just need to get her to notice me." Seeing her ear a few feet above him, Marco grabbed some of Wendy's red hair and used it as a rope to climb all the way to her ear.
While Marco was climbing her hair, Wendy took a break from her magazine for a second to grab a few chips from the bag on her desk. Marco stopped in the middle of his climbed to watch Wendy put the chips into her mouth. From there, Marco's eardrums were assaulted by the booming sound of Wendy crunching the chips and then swallowing them. He felt like he lost his color as he saw the chips become a lump in her throat that quickly disappeared into her chest never to be seen again.
The very thought of that being him in that position was almost enough to make him feel nauseous, but Marco quickly put the thought out of his head and resumed his ascent. He finally made it to the ledge of Wendy's ear and began shouting into the hole in the center of it to get her attention.
"HEY WENDY! I'M IN HERE! HELP! I'M SHRUNK! HELP ME!" Marco shouted as loud as he could into Wendy's left earlobe and waited for her to respond. He just hoped that she would help him out if she does find him.
