Dinner With Devoros
Rejax is a simple wolf with a simple need: An eternally inflated belly. Either with air, or with slime... But when he goes off to get a refill for his gut, he meets Devoros, ever the mysterious and horrible monster! What could be in store for the poor wolf...
This is a commission for FA: Rejax . It includes my character Devoros, who's usually much more fatal in his dealings... But it was still a blast working with him. Thanks for the commission, Rejax!
Rejax tentatively shined his flashlight down into the mouth of the unlit cave. It revealed the usual: Rocks, stalactites, and not a soul in sight. Grinning, he slowly stepped down into the cavernous area, shining the light down at his paws to keep himself from slipping on the uneven terrain.
The blue wolf almost knew the layout of this cave by heart by now. It had been a while since he switched what he filled his belly with. He couldn't just leave himself uninflated, and air, while cheap, wasn't quite cutting it. Then he had stumbled upon this cave! In its depths was a rare commodity; this cave was home to a slime pit. He had found the slime very willing to fill other living things, and boy did it make for a wonderful gut. Heavy and sloshy. But of course, he'd eventually digest the stuff... Making this far from his first trip down here.
Rejax hefted his ballooned belly with one hand. It was smaller than usual... Hardly bobbling past his knees today. All the while, he paced downwards into the cave, looking around with his flashlight. All he could hear was a low dripping noise... And was that the sound of rocks shifting? He wheeled around him, but he didn't see a thing wrong. Rejax shrugged and went on his way.
With a grin, he finally looked upon the target of his desires. Slime pools! It was like a huge, green lake, bubbling and churning. Thick slime was available in abundance down here, making Rejax grin in glee. Stepping forwards, he approached the pool...
Another scuffling noise sounded in his ears. He wheeled around, eyes wide, but... Nothing. He slowly turned back towards the pool and took another step. Then another. He was at the edge of the pool, the slime quivering...
Then, a voice, low and growling, filled his ears.
"It's cold down here..."
Rejax's blood froze on the spot. He slowly turned around, shaking... At the other end of the cave, barely out of his sight, was a set of glowing eyes. He heard a snarl and a thumping foot forwards... This beast was hulking. He swiveled his flashlight around, taking a step back... What he then saw was worse than his nightmares.
It was a beast, alright. Towering over him was a grotesque creature, a very dragon-like one. It walked on two thick legs. Grey scales were parted at the chest, revealing a bloody opening, showing ribcage and organs alike. And the thing's head... Was just a skull, red eyes shining. The thing snarled at the light, staring down the terrified wolf.
It spoke in a halting manner, low and guttural. "Devoros... What a horrible way to die..."
The thing presumably called Devoros stood still, and Rejax looked around him in fear. He was paralyzed into stillness from the pure horror of the thing, the beast breathing heavily and staring.
Before he could do anything, he heard a wet schlorping sound, and he saw a grey tendril of flesh slowly extend from Devoros's back... Before snapping towards him, making him yelp and cower. The tentacle of sorts slapped against his middle before quickly wrapping around him, keeping him in a tight embrace. The tendril was warm and slightly sticky, making him struggle as it tightened around him. His struggles were little use, however, when the thing effortlessly lifted him off the ground, dragging the wolf towards the hulking monster.
"Weak flesh..."
Devoros kept muttering as he held Rejax before him, the wolf struggling to get the coil off of him. The thing just wound itself around the wolf more, squeezing that inflated belly and making it bulge. Rejax whimpered as he was held aloft, the beast's skull staring right through him, now terrifyingly close.
Looking closer at Devoros's chest, Rejax gasped. Normally, one would expect to see a heart, lungs, intestines, things like that. But he couldn't identify a single pulsing organ inside Devoros's body. It looked like a random jumble of exotic cuts of meat... Things that shouldn't be visible, even!
He was snapped out of his thoughts by a warm, slimy feeling running across his muzzle. Devoros was slowly licking him with a long, thick tongue, leaving a slimy trail in its wake! Rejax whimpered and flailed, but to no use. He gasped as he was held even tighter in that slimy grip, accidentally dropping the flashlight. It landed with a clatter, continuing to illuminate the scene before him.
Rejax choked out a protest. "Please... What are you... Doing?"
The monster growled. "It beckons... The eternity..."
"What? Please... Let me down!"
Devoros only responded with another lick, coating his head in thick saliva. Rejax tried to shake it off, but he was only met with more and more attention from the monster. Devoros leaned forwards, opening his mouth... Rejax stared in fear at the insides spread before him, growing closer and closer...
Soon, the maw enveloped his head. No struggling Rejax could do could keep Devoros from pulling him in, withdrawing the tentacle as his jaws clamped down right around that gut. He gasped and moaned as sharp teeth pressed into his flesh... Then sighed as they loosened their grip.
The relief was short-lived, however, because then Rejax felt those mouth walls press against him... And he heard a swallowing noise. The suction forced him right into that mouth, pressed against the back of his throat...
The wolf couldn't believe what was going on. Was this the end? Rejax struggled as best as he could, but when the next gulp came, his fate was sealed. He quickly slid down into that throat...
The journey down that fleshy tube took too long for Rejax. Dread filled him as he was slowly pushed deeper into the beast... But it didn't last forever. Soon, he met with a ring of flesh and was pushed into the... Stomach? He assumed it was a stomach; with his predator's odd biology, he couldn't tell. It felt warm and slick, the walls of the organ, but he was pretty sure those aren't normal...
Rejax yelped when the organ groaned, the walls of flesh tensing and relaxing around him, shifting him around. They seemed to move with a purpose, moving him until he couldn't ever know which direction was up.
Suddenly, he felt the walls of the organ twist in a new way. A strand of flesh seemed to extend from the bottom, twisting around his legs, the limbs already held tight. Rejax gasped and wriggled, but there wasn't any room in the organ to begin with, so his struggles once again proved futile. A tendril of flesh wrapped its way up his body, squishing into his belly before going up his arms. Was this a tentacle inside a stomach?
Soon, the thing wound its way up to his muzzle. He eeped and held his jaws shut, clenching them against the threat winding its way up him. As he predicted, the tentacle pushed hard against his jaws! He growled and shook his head, but the tendril eventually pushed too hard for him; he soon tasted the tip of the thing scraping against his tongue, tasting a bit like raw meat.
The tiny crack in Rejax's defenses was enough for the thing to force its way all the way in. With another push, the wolf found himself unable to clench his jaws any longer, the tendril parted his maw wider as it shoved its way into the mouth. He gagged as the thing brushed against his throat, forcing through the ring of flesh, utterly filling his mouth with tentacle.
He could only feel the tentacle writhe around him, writhing in horror as it continued to plunge inside of his helpless form. Rejax gave a gurgle of relief when it finally slowed down and halted, stopping short of pushing into his air-filled gut. But as soon as one thing stopped, another thing began. The tentacle started pulsing slowly, expanding and contracting inside him...
This sudden undulation made the wolf eep and squirm inside the organ, uncertain of what exactly was happening to him. He then began to slowly feel a new warmth inside of his gut as the tentacle pulsed... It was depositing some sort of warm liquid into him! His eyes went wide (not that they could see anything in the dark gut), and he tried to shift to feel his belly.
What he did feel was his belly slowly expanding outwards, air being displaced with this new liquid. Perhaps slime of some sort? Certainly fitting, considering his goal coming here... But Rejax definitely was not prepared for this method of delivery! A muffled groan escaped his filled lips as he felt that stuff well up in his belly, making it slosh as the organ around him churned slightly.
The filling of the pulsing tentacle didn't stop, either. Slowly, it filled him more and more, his gut creaking as it expanded with goo. He soon felt much more full than he was used to, belly gurgling loudly as the air mixed with the liquid... A belch tried to escape his lips, but was met with fierce opposition from the tendril splaying his mouth open. The filling continued unabated, the pressure and warmth growing... Soon, there was far more belly than wolf filling the tight sac, pushing his body harshly against the walls.
Soon, the pressure was too much, and he felt some goo slide up his throat. Gagging slightly, he couldn't help but let some of the thick stuff dribble out of his maw. Suddenly, he felt the pulsing inside of him stop, making him wriggle. The tentacle slowly shifted out of him with a wet schlorp, soon exiting his maw altogether. Rejax whined and sighed as the thing finally let him be, uncoiling his limbs and disappearing back into the taut walls of the gut. He could only clutch his massive, slime-filled belly and groan softly, mind reeling from the long experience.
Time soon lost meaning to the trapped wolf, being slowly churned by the organ... But soon things would change around him. He felt the sac shift, a ring of flesh opening up wide... And with a glorp, he felt himself get sucked right down into it.
He was hopeful for but a second- Was he being thrown back up after being filled with slime? Was this the goal of this predatory beast? A few minutes of travel time through a narrow tube of flesh later, however, his hopes were shattered: He felt a tight ring of flesh that sucked him through into... Another stomach-like organ.
He could only wonder in horror what the biology of this creature was as he felt the fleshy walls of his prison. These walls were covered in small bumps, rubbing into him as the organ churned. They certainly irritated the skin under his fur after a few minutes of rubbing, making the wolf press his limbs against it to try to create some space in the small thing.
Suddenly, he released his hand from pressing against the wall after a sharp sensation pricked it. Were those dull bumps turning sharp? His gut, sensitive after its filling, felt another sharp pinprick rub against it, making him yelp. He eventually felt another prick, and soon figured out what was going on...
While most bumps were dull, a few got sharp, and they were doing so in a pattern. This pattern slowly rotated around the organ... While getting more pronounced along the way. He arched his back, then turned on his side, then let his gut take the brunt of it... The sharp nubs got sharper as they went around... The thing was going to tear him to shreds soon enough!
Rejax knew what he had to do to avoid this fate... He groaned as he realized. He began to slowly rotate himself around, making his tough belly face the spikes of flesh... And his belly soon took a beating. He had to constantly move himself, limbs getting tired, as the increasingly sharp nubs pressed into his gut, making it creak, wobble, and deliver signals of pain right to him.
It soon got more and more intense, the wolf whimpering as the spikes soon shoved into his gut profoundly, threatening to tear into him if he moved too fast! It was a careful rhythm he had to pick up, rotating himself fast enough so that the spikes didn't impale him anywhere bad, and slow enough so he didn't pop like the overfull slime balloon he was...
He panted as he sloshed his belly right into the spikes of flesh over and over again, his belly stinging, the flesh certainly tenderized by now. He was growing weary, he didn't know how much more he could keep up... Even the dull nubs running across the rest of his body were beginning to have an effect on him. But still he danced the dangerous dance of belly and spike, huffing and puffing, about to break...
Luckily for him, it seemed that the organ around him broke first. All of a sudden, the spikes, huge piercing things now, began to recede, leaving the bumps all dull once again. Rejax moaned and finally relaxed, muscles aching after his masochistic exertion. He dared not even rub his poor belly, the thing poked nearly raw from the spikes. He felt sensitive all over...
To make matters worse, he had not even a full minute of rest before he felt a ring of flesh open, drawing him into it quickly. He groaned and squirmed as it ran over his belly, squishing it and pinching it, making it wobble and pushing it around his body, before slopping right into another tight esophagus-like tube.
Rejax couldn't believe his predicament. What was going on inside Devoros...? He felt the pressure around him steadily grow, as if he was entering a deeper part of his predator... Just how many guts did the monster have? At least one more, he thought, as he felt himself slip into yet another sac of flesh. Yet... This one immediately felt different as he landed in it.
First of all, it was somehow very roomy. He fell quite literally into the organ, flailing... But soon, something other than a wall of flesh broke his fall. He was suddenly grabbed by a bunch of fibrous tendrils, making his belly lurch as they stopped his fall... Mid-air. These tentacles quickly wrapped around his arms and legs, pulling them apart forcefully, leaving him splayed there in the warm, dank air of this strange organ. He yelped and squirmed weakly against his new bonds, but the tentacles held tight...
He stopped moving the second he felt something fleshy press against the navel of his swollen gut, a protrusion a few inches across. He whimpered as the thing pressed harder, before going back out, leaving his belly to slosh softly. After a hushed second, the thing practically rammed back into him, sending him reeling, his belly wobbling furiously. The tentacles held him right in place, though, as his belly was abused, leaving him nothing to do but cry out as his oversensitive gut was punched.
In and out, in and out... The fleshy battering ram kept up its pace, leaving him constantly winded and in pain. He groaned out as it continued its pace, the tip too dull to pierce him... Until it suddenly wasn't too dull any longer.
The last punch into him was sharp! He felt little hooks, as if the dull tip opened up into a star of sharp, bone-like spikes. His belly creaked, groooaaaned... And the thing forced itself just a little more forwards. With a wet splorch, his gut could do nothing but give way to the sharp probe, sucking the thing in like a needle piercing skin. It quickly regained its normal shape... But with a needle of flesh inside of it!
Rejax screamed as he felt himself finally give out. Soon enough, the needle inside him pulsated and gurgled... And then the pressure in his belly lessened. It was sucking the slime out of him! He was held up by tentacles as the large tentacle sucked and shlorped, feeding on his engorged gut.
His belly wobbled as it shrank, leaving the wolf tossing about and groaning. What torment, to fill his belly only to tenderize it and poke a hole in it... It was as if these guts were designed not by nature, but by a sadist with a penchant for making wolves suffer! The needle continued its gross work for minutes, leaving him there until he felt the pressure reverse, making his body lurch when the thing impaling him sucked on him.
With another sickeningly wet noise, the needle-tentacle finally withdrew... Rejax was fully deflated, utterly defeated and left hanging with a small hole in his stomach where his prized possession once was... His belly. He yelped once more as he was suddenly let go by the tentacles holding him up, letting him fall right into another patch of wriggly tendrils. Rejax was pretty much in shock as the tentacles grabbed him and pushed him right through another ring of flesh.
Not even now the digestion process was over... Rejax felt very woozy as he thought what was ahead of him. He soon fell unconscious in a tight tube of flesh, being pushed into an unknown fate... One probably even nastier to his poor belly.
* * *
Devoros leaned back onto the cave wall and growled softly. More food... More food to join the others! He rubbed his guts, free and open to the air. More food to join his infinite number of guts... The slime pits near him burbled softly as he let his meal... Digest.
Such were the consequences for having dinner with Devoros.
