Kai Reaches for Seeds

    by: Michael Clayton Author IconMail Icon
Tyler’s world had become a small, warm pocket within Kai’s jacket. The rhythmic sway of Kai’s movements provided an odd comfort, a brief reprieve from the chaos of his situation. However, this moment of relative calm was soon disrupted as Kai’s hand reached into the pocket to retrieve a handful of sunflower seeds.

The sudden jostling tossed Tyler about among the seeds, which were now colossal obstacles in his tiny world. He struggled to stay upright as Kai’s fingers, immense and unfeeling, sifted through the seeds. The hand moved with purpose, lifting Tyler and the seeds into the air.

Kai’s deep, resonant voice boomed from above. “I’m going to have a snack,” he said casually. “These seeds will keep me fueled for the day ahead.”

Tyler’s heart raced as he was carried closer to Kai’s mouth, which yawned open like an enormous cavern. The darkness of the mouth swallowed the light, and the towering seeds, along with Tyler, were lowered onto Kai’s tongue. The vast surface of the tongue was warm and slick, with a texture that was both alien and overwhelming to Tyler.

The moment the seeds touched the tongue, Tyler felt a surge of fear. He had anticipated Kai would chew, but the giant’s next action caught him off guard. Kai tilted his head back slightly and began to swallow. The sensation was immediate and intense—the giant’s throat closed around Tyler and the seeds, pulling them down with an unstoppable force.

Tyler’s tiny body was pushed along by the powerful muscles of Kai’s throat. The walls of the throat were slick and pulsating, and Tyler found himself helplessly carried downward. The journey was swift, and the darkness grew more profound as they descended.

As Tyler was finally settled at the very back of Kai’s tongue, he rested against the soft, warm surface. The seeds were already on their way to the giant’s stomach, and Tyler could feel the subtle movements of Kai’s tongue beneath him. The vibrations of Kai’s heartbeat resonated through the warm, damp environment, providing a constant, rhythmic background noise.

The sensation of being at the back of Kai’s tongue was disorienting, yet strangely calm. Tyler took a moment to gather his thoughts, feeling the gentle rise and fall of Kai’s breathing as he rested. The immense size of the tongue and the soft, shifting texture beneath him reminded Tyler of just how precarious his situation was.
