As the rain started to come down, Christie groaned. It had been much clearer two hours ago when she had set out with Rebecca to do the daily gathering. Recalling moving south about 3 months ago, she is glad she made the effort as the temperature was much more forgiving here, warm enough earlier that she could wear one of her favorite work outfits. It was a simple tanned leather top with a matching pair of tight fit shorts, made to avoid getting caught up on anything should a hasty retreat be in order. But, even though the temperature itself was fairly moderate, the rain made Christie realize that she was almost certain to catch a cold if the rain continued.

"Didn't I tell ya?" Rebecca yelled from across the field, "I knew it! Bet you wish you had something a bit less revealing on now, don't ya?" Rebecca had known earlier before they left that rain was likely, and grabbed a warm coat and pants to wear for the gathering. She had suggested to Christie that she did the same, but she just loved that top and shorts combo. Ha, Rebecca thought, maybe now she'll listen the next time.

"Whatever, bitch!" Christie replied, laughing. Normally, a girl would be offended by such a thing, but she and Rebecca had been friends for a few years, and quite a history with the girl.

At first, they hadn't really gotten along, as Rebecca was aprehensive about outsiders. She mocked Christie's work often, declaring the outsider's progress a joke. She would constantly speak with the elders to try to have her thrown out of the clan, but they didn't feel the same way at all about Christie, since she, in truth, was one of the more productive, usuful, and polite of the girls in the clan. In fact, just about everyone in the clan at least tolerated the girl. This just made Rebecca dislike her even more of course.

Then, one day she found her self looking down the throat of a very hungery naga. Within moments, it had her in it's stomach, ready for digestion. "Sssuch a beautiful girl i've caught today, and filling too!" The naga taunted her. Rebecca had kicked and screamed, but she knew she was lost. After a few minutes, she gave up, and resigned to her fate. "Oooh, given up already, that'ss ssso ssad. I love when they writhe the whole way." As her clothes dissappeared round her, she felt a sudden movement, and was shocked when the naga's flesh around her disolved. Then, she was twice as stunned to see she was looking into Chrisite's blood smeared face. Still a bit dazed, Rebecca tried to get up and fell back down on her butt. Christie laughed, and offered a hand to help her up. Suddenly, Rebecca noticed she was completely naked, and jumped to her feet, covering up what she could with her hands, and blushing fiercly.

Still shaken, she half yelled "You bitch! You saved me just to get an eyeful, didn't you!?"

"What!? I saved you because that's what clan members do!" Christie was exasperated from the fight with the naga, but furious still that Rebecca would make such an assumption. "You're just mad because it was me who saved you!" Christie was right, but Rebecca was far to proud to admit it, but also to tired to continue the argument.

"Let's just get back to camp for now, pervert." Rebecca was a bit burned in places and just wanted to get home to wash off and get the acids out of her sensitve parts.

"Whaterver, bitch." Christie was pissed, but she too found she just wanted to get home and have a rest.

As time went by, eventually Christie found herself in trouble. Having been caught by a centauress, she tried to slash at it with the small knife she had brought, but the strong horse woman simply grabbed it and threw it away. "Ohh, your pretty, aren't you? I bet you'll taste even better than you look." She brought Christie to her face and slowly licked around her face in a circle. Christie was trying to get free, shaking and kicking, but the centauress's powerful grip held her in place. The horse woman then brought Christie's face a bit closer, and planted a sensual kiss on her dainty lips. She was caught off guard by the gentle show of affection, and simply gazed at the face of her captor. The kiss seemed to last for ages. Suddenly, the creature opened it's mouth wider than Christie could have imagined possible, and she was snapped from the dream world she was in. The panic set in, and she began screaming with all she had. This didn't last long, however, as the centauress shoved Christie's head in her mouth and swallowed hard. The pressure on Christie's neck from the tight throught cut off her scream. As her body was forced deeper and deeper by the powerful arms that held her, she started to weeping silently. She cursed herself for going out alone, as she was sure she was destined to become part of the predator's body. As she was forced completely into the centauress's main stomach, she began to calm down a bit however, and as she shifted into position, she began to feel comfortable. She caught herself wishing she could stay like this forever, the warmth, the smooth, gentle touch of the silky flesh pressed against hers, and the rythmic rocking of the centuaress walking to her den. But, every dream must come to an end, and Christie's personal heaven began to slowly make the transistion into hell. The warmth changed first, into a sight itch. Christie realized what this meant, and began once more to feel the dread she felt earlier. The itch spread, and became more intense. Then, the itch became a burning sensation, slight at first and then it intensified to the point of pure pain. All of Christie's skin that was uncovered by clothing began to burn as though it was pressed against an iron. Christie began to scream again, and her clothing that had protected most of her skin started falling off in bits. Being in so much pain all over, it was not long before she passed out.

***

After a day had passed, Christie awoke, screaming. In her mind she was still in that heaven-turned-hell, and she felt true terror. The clan healer, Triana, grabbed Christie and shook her out of her nightmare.
"Christie! Christie you're ok now!" Christie came out of it, but was still shaking, covered in a cold sweat.

"Oh my god, Triana! It was horrible..." she trailed off, weeping. "It was'nt so bad at first, and I gave up, but it got so much worse!"

"You mean to say you never have been swallowed before?" Triana was shocked, as everyone in the clan has dealt with this at least once, usually starting somewhere around the newborn years when a girl is new to the world and unexperienced.

"No, never... it hurt so much..." Still weeping, she realized she had no idea how she got out alive. "How did I get here?"

"Well, you should ask Rebecca, she tells the story the best." Triana said, winking. Christie looked over and noticed Rebecca leaning in the doorway.

"I saved your butt, that's how you're here."

As it turned out, Rebecca had heard Christie's first scream from camp, faintly, but she still was able to determine the general direction. After a few minutes of running, she noticed the rather plump centauress, with it's belly writhing. It had not noticed her, and was walking away. Rebecca made a daring move and jumped up onto the horse woman's back and dug in with her knees to help her hold on. When it jumped up onto it's hind legs in shock, Rebecca made her move. In one swift motion, she grabbed the creature's hair and pulled the head back. Then, she slashed the horse woman's throat, bringing it down. It looked with shock in it's eyes at Rebecca, and passed after a few moments from the massive blood loss. As it's body dissapeared, Rebecca saw Christie began to appear and felt relived, as she was a bit burned, but otherwise ok. As she looked at Christie's curled up body, she felt a bit of warmth in her flower, but quickly dismissed herself. Christie still hadn't snapped back into conciousness, so Rebecca picked her up and took her back to the camp to have her healed.

"What do ya think of that, eh?" Rebecca had of course left out the bit about her getting turned on at Christie's form. Christie was grateful, and surprised at Rebecca's apparent care for her life.

"Well, I sorta owed you, even though you only saved me to catch a peek, bitch." Rebecca said, winking.

"Oh...Rebecca..." Christie hugged her savior and cried herself to sleep again, her body still tired from the previous day's events.

"Ugh, jeeze, hugging now." Rebecca muttered,"Well, she may be a pervert bitch outsider, but she has done her part around here, that's for sure." After Christie fell asleep, she left her to rest, and realized walking back to her home that she and the outsider had become friends.

As the years passed, both the girls would come to depend on one another more and more, as many times one would end up in the inards of a stealthy monster, and the other would come just in time to drop the beast and save the trapped girl. They watched out for each other, and their friendship was strengthened over time. They did stay friends however, and did not become lovers as all of the other clan members expected. The subject was never brought up by either girl, mostly due mutual fear of rejection.

Through this history together, they built many interesting quirks, such as calling each other "bitch" in a playful manner, as Christie did on this fall day. Rebecca was right though, as Christie was starting to feel the bite of the cold that stemmed from the water getting trapped between her clothes and skin. She would have gone back to change, but they were still two hours away from the camp, and the clan depended on the chosen gatherers of the day to bring back the supplies and food needed to keep them going for at least a bit of time. Rebecca was gathering about 20 feet from Christie and the sudden downpour, and caught herself staring at Christie's rain slicked body. She couldn't really break her view though, as she was mesmerized by the form before her. The flowing blonde hair, the piercing blue eyes, and lovely face. The girl was like a wingless angel, with a suttle glow around her. Rebecca began to feel the heat again, and quickly looked away.

Christie was begining to feel very cold, and started rubbing her chest to keep warm. She was a bit surprised at the tenderness of her breasts at first, but kept rubbing to stay warm. She crouched down to bring her legs closer to her body to try to warm them. After warming up a bit, she got back up to start gathering again and noticed out of the corner of her eye that Rebecca had quickly turned her head. She giggled just a bit at the ridiculous thought that had crossed her mind, and resumed picking around for usuful things.

Suddenly, there was a thunderous boom that made both girls look up. It had sounded like thunder, but there was no lightning before it. They exchanged glances and listened closly. They heard it again, and again, repeating itself like a far off war drum. Then, with terror in both their eyes, they realized what it was as an enormous dark figure appeared in the distance. They both bolted off, in the direction of the camp. The thunderous booming sped up, and they realized it must have seen at least one of them. They ran through the field as fast as they could, but the thunder was closing in. Christie looked back when she heard Rebecca scream, the giantess had ironically grabbed her by the loose coat she wore, and then balled her up in her fist. Then, the giantess looked directly into Christie's eyes, and she knew it wanted her too. She started running again, and the large woman gave chase. It was on her in a moment, and grabbed her. Christie, wet from the rain, pressed with all her might against the giant thumb and forefinger of the woman, and popped out onto the ground. She fell a few feet and rolled, then jumped to get up. She slipped on the wet glade however and was quickly grabbed again by her leg. The giantess had a firm grip this time, and brought Christie to her face. "Aw, what a cute little girl!" the giantess boomed, "I almost feel sorry for having to eat you! Of course, we can have some fun first." Christie was petrified, half from the unflinching terror, and partly by the beaty of the giant woman.

The giantess then put her lips around Christie's head, and began to slowly suck the poor girl in. Christie was panicking, because she knew rescue this time was impossible. Rebecca was in the giantess's other hand, and even if she wasn't, it would take an army to take down the huge woman. Then, she felt her legs move past the lips and follow her into the mouth, which was completly dark now that it was shut. She felt the giant tongue working her about, and was shocked when the giantess held her butt gently with her teeth, and used her tounge to remove the leather top she had been wearing. Outside, the giantess seemed quite pleased with her self, while concentrating and using careful movements with her mouth. Christie was suddenly lifted and flipped around, and squealed when she felt the tounge pull off her shorts. The giantess then ground her tounge against Christie's flower, causing another scream to eminate from Christie. "YOU BITCH!" she screamed. The giantess then positioned Rebecca so that her head stuck out from the hand that encased her.

"Ummm, you're friend is so sweet!" She held Christie in her teeth and opened her lips so Rebecca could see her.

"Oh my God, Christie!" she cried out.

"Rebec...UGH!" Christie tried to call to her friend, but the giantess dug into her with her tounge again.

"Whell, time to shay goovuy fhor now." the giantess had a bit of trouble talking while holding the delicate form between her teeth. She tilted her head back suddenly, and relaxed her teeth.

"GOD NO!" Rebecca screamed. She started sobbing when she saw the giantess swallow her friend. She could the bulge in the giant throat move down untill it dissappeared into the huge chest below.
"Oh, don't cry, little one. You will be with her in a moment..." the giantess cooed.

"FUCK YOU BITCH!!" Rebecca wanted to kill the giant. Her mind had lost control, and she began flailing as much as she could to try to get at the giant. She had no weapon, and no chance, but she didn't care. In her mind, one of them was going to die.

"Oohh, a bit upset are we? Well, might as well get this done with." the giantess suddenly threw Rebecca into her mouth, and swallowed hard. Rebecca screamed and beat around the throat she bent over and slide down ass first. On the way down, she began to cry for the first time when being eaten. Not for herself, but for Christie. She wouldn't be able to save her friend this time. This would be their last few hours. With a sudden drop, she landed on a form she recognized.

"Christie...it's going to be ok..." she said, still crying.

"Rebecca..." Christie was surprisingly not crying. "You bitch..." she said, laughing a little. They held eachother a moment, in the stomach that imprisoned them.

"I... I love you Rebecca..." Christie said, still embracing her friend.

"I... love you too, Christie..." Rebecca weeped.

"Rebecca?"

"Yes...?"

"Three years ago, when I saved you from that naga..."

"What about it?"

"I could have saved you right away, but I waited on purpose...so your clothes would be gone...you were right, I wanted a look at you."

"Heh" Rebecca stopped weeping and laughed a bit. "I knew it, you pervert bitch...well, when I saved you from the centauress, I got a pretty good look in at you...so I guess we're even..."

"Ha, wow.......Rebecca, do you think..." Christie began to blush, although it couldn't be seen it the pitch black darkness.

"Huh?"

"Would you make love to me, just once while we can?"

"Wha?..." Now Rebecca was blushing. "That...sounds nice..."

Rebecca moved so she could take off her coat and pants. Once she did, the pair started moving against one another, partly to get into position, and partly to feel each other intimately, for the first time. They began to moan slightly, and lined themselves up. Rebecca started kissing Christie gently. Christie responded by probing Rebecca's lips with her tongue, to try for a more intimate kiss. She knew they couldn't really afford to take it slow. Rebecca accepted the tongue into her mouth and began to feel flush. After a bit, Rebecca pulled away from the kiss and brought her head down to start kissing Christie's chest. Christie moaned and moved Rebecca's head so that she would be over her breast, still tender from before. Rebecca took the hint and wrapped her lips around the soft areola. At first, it was bitter from a bit of light acid that had fallen on to it, but that gave way to the sweet taste of Christie. She suckled lightly then bit down on the nipple. This caused a shreik followed by another load moan from Christie. Christie then leaned back into the stomach wall, which felt smooth against her skin, but also brought a slight itch she knew all to well. Still cradling Rebecca's head against her bosom, she brought her leg up between Rebecca's legs and began grinding her knee into her flower. This made Rebecca come off of the breast in shock, but she then went back to suckle a bit more, but on the other breast now. The two lovers were moaning loudly, both entranced by what was happening. Rebecca then brought her hand to Christie's flower, and pushed her fingers in as far as she could. For a moment, Christie winced, because of the trace acids on the fingers protruding into her, but as she expected that washed away into a feeling of glee. Christie moved her hand to Rebecca's breast and begain to squeeze it, bringing more pleasure to the fiery redhead.

"Christie?" Rebecca spoke up, still digging deep into her partner.

"Ye...ES?" Christie was writhing in pleasure to much to speak to clearly.

"Would you be willing to... play with my ass a bit?" Rebecca was clearly embarrassed to even ask.

"Oh...oKAY, LET me just GEt *oooohhh* situated..." Rebecca took her hand from Christie and spun around. She was practically overjoyed that Christie would do this for her, since almost no other girl she had been with in her life would. She got down on all fours and raised her ass a bit so Christie could get at it. She wasn't expecting Christie to go at it so quickly, and squealed when she felt a warm tongue plow it's way between her cheeks. Christie began by licking around the rose a bit, which was sour at first, partially from the acids that were slowly but surely coating the two. It gave away to a salty-sweet taste quickly, though, and she found herself loving it. After licking around it a bit, she probed lightly into the tight circle. "OOOH!" Rebecca cried, obviously enjoying it. Christie then pushed her tongue in a bit deeper, and suddenly pulled it out. Almost instantly, she pressed it back in, deeper than before. She repeated this a few times, and the suddenly stuck it in as far as she could. Rebecca flexed a bit, surprised at the depth to which she was reached. Christie felt the rose pinch on her tongue and pulled it out to laugh a bit. Then, without warning she stuck a finger in. Rebecca almost screamed at the sudden welcome intrusion. The acid on the finger, though slight, did burn a bit, but like all other times it quickly passed into pure pleasure. Christie had shoved her forefinger in as deep as she could, and started sliding it in and out. Rebecca was cooing. "More PLEase...*ooh*" she moaned. Christie obliged and put in two more fingers, still sliding them in and out, slowly at first, but with a quickening speed. The water, combined with the saliva in the stomach made a perfect lubricant for her fingers. "OH, that's AMaziNG, just do the whO...Le thinG, won't YOu?" Christie laughed, and stuck her pinkey and thumb into the ass infront of her as she was asked. "OH GOD!" Rebecca screamed. Christie had made a fist and inserted it in as far as she could. She was loving this too, the soft feel of inner flesh against her skin, without the burning that accompanied most she had been in contact with. The pressure on her arm from Rebecca felt great, especially since she flexed every few moments from pleasure. She started moving in and out with her fist, and at the same time pleasuring herself with her free hand. The pair then intensified their movements, feeling that they were both on the verge. They both began screaming, and exploded at the same time. Christie pulled herself from Rebecca, and exasperated, they held one another.

***

In the time that had passed, the acid in the giantess's stomach had become stronger, and was being pumped in higher volumes into the flesh prison that contained the girls. After they settled down, they held each other tightly, weeping quietly, not from sadness, but from their newly discovered feelings for one another.

"I'll...always love you..."

They passed out around the same time, still holding onto one another, as they slipped from the stomach to the intestine. Their last and lovliest thoughts were of each other, and the only regret being that they didn't explore their feelings a bit sooner. Still, they felt content with what had happened, and truly became one being of pure love.
