Chapter 8 - Feast for the Deep

Groaning and aching, Meiko pulled her arm out of slimy liquid. “Everyone? Are you alright?”

The other girls moaned in reply, all but one getting up. They had fallen a long way and only the long sunken wood and the mud under them had kept them from dying from the fall.

They were in a sinkhole, a humid pot of watery sludge surrounded by steep muddy walls. The mud reached up to their thighs in most places and as Camila, found out, was deeper in others. Olivia helped her sister out of the hip-deep sinkhole within the mud pit. 

The tepid mud was slick on their skin, turning their already wet clothing practically transparent. In the case of Olivia, Iryna and Saga, their lacy bras, bikinis panties and mini-shorts might as well be discarded for what little they covered. Even Meiko's sailor fuku was not any better and her pleaded skirt had been torn by the fall.

“Meiko!” Meiko looked up, hearing the voice of her collegue travel down from above them. “Are you alright? Where are you?”

“Galina!” Meiko shouted back. “We're down here! We need rope! We can't get out!”

In the quagmire, another family was awoken from slumber. Sensing five meals stumble into their home, the hidden carnivores swam in a circle around their prey. Scavengers by nature and confined to the warm clay within this mud hole, the creatures were placated for much of their existence. But now, they sensed living flesh within their grasp. It was an opportunity that they would not let escape them. They would relentlessly take advantage of this rare time when prey stumbled into their isolated home.

“Saga...” Iryna started over to where the young swedish teen lied sprawled upon the mud and was slowly sinking. The blond girl had hit her head as she fell and was barely responsive despite her peril. “Saga! Get up! You're sinking!”

“What is that...” Camilla looked down at the motion in the mud, her eyes widened when she saw black pods emerge from the mud. She looked on as the pods opened up, revealing the foul vermicular mouths of the carnictis sordidis. Stunned with fear, Camilla didn't realize that another carnictis was right behind her before it struck.

“Cammy!” Olivia screamed out, moving to where her sister was struggling against the extended pink maw that sucked upon the summit of her brunette hair. Shocked with terror, Camilla was easily pulled onto her back. Mud splashed onto Camilla's seductive body, lubricated her skin and causing her microkini top to slide down from her breasts. Olivia jumped on the worm and began to attack, hitting its slimy rancid flesh and vainly trying to pull it off of a screaming Camilla. Olivia squeezed her arms around the mucous lingua, pulling with all her might on the worm that was stretching its elastic maw over her sister's face. 

Meiko was also attacked, her head sucked on by a great pink extension. She drew her sword and slashed wildly, cutting the worm's maw in half and falling forward. Her released head was slathered in saliva, Meiko rubbed the filth from her eyes in time to see a new contender. Another worm was waiting for her, grabbing her right breast with its mouth. The sudden action caused Meiko to gasp in shock and stand stunned even as her breast was kneaded and swallowed. Meiko stabbed the offending meat-weasel through its gut and watched it fall to the mud, though her shirt was ripped open in the process. Meiko watched more worms emerge from the mud around her and heard screams from the others.

Iryna was crawling back in shock, watching Saga's legs get slurped down by another carnictis. The swede teen awoke in time to see what was happening to her and gasped when the worm trapped her shins into its maw. Before she could call for help, another carnictis immediately pounced and swallowed over the top of Saga's golden head. The two scavengers tugged on their prey, each trying to claim the Swedish teen for their own hunger. Saga screamed in pain, feeling as though she would be ripped in half by the suction of the two worms. She was muted when foul flesh moved over her mouth and wrapped around her neck. 

Distracted by the horrific tug of war, Iryna was powerless when another worm found her and pressed its mouth upon her dark hair. She reached up, trying to push the worm off of her, but it was no use. Her hands were pulled into the maw and trapped her arms around her head. She was forced on her feet in her struggles, her teeth grit in defiance of this monster even as her head was taken in.

“Larissa! Find rope!” Galina shouted, pointing Larissa to the discarded pack nearby. “I'm going down there!” 

“I'm coming too!” Avani volunteered as Larissa stood in place and finally ran to the pack further back down the path. “We have to hurry!” Neither knew the peril that their friends were in, but they wanted to help nonetheless after hearing screams echo from below them. From what they could see of the steep cliffs, there was no way out without help from above.

“I know-” Galina felt something snap onto her shoulder and then she was picked up by a black anaconda and enveloped into its loops within mere seconds. On the ground, Avani looked at the scene in shock and was unable to see the other snake coming. When it latched onto her hip and pulled her into its own coils, all she could do was scream.

The Brothers Ebon and Diamond looked upon their entrapped prey, slowly pressing their muscled long bodies upon the soft humans within then. Three loops of black scaled muscle wrapped around Galina, two were upon her shoulders and below her breasts. The pressure of these coils tore open Galina's top as she began to lose consciousness. The third loop held her thighs together, holding the russian still until the constriction forced her into unconsciousness.

Avani was trapped within three coils as well and all were concentrated on her lower chest, hips and legs. Her generous breasts rested over the top coil, the dancer tube-top torn by the snake's attack. The Ivory snake stared right into the Indian girl's brown eyes, mocking her as her breathing weakened. The white coils of the snake made its brown victim starkly stand out as she was squeezed into submission. She moaned under the pressure, her brown nipples hardening with arousal despite her peril.

Olivia's tears wet her face as she watched her sister get engulfed past her shoulders. All of Olivia's attempts to save her sister were failing and she could see that everyone else was in the same predicament. Suddenly, she felt something hot press over her toned legs and looked back to see another worm consuming her shins. “NO!” 

Meiko slashed at another worm, decapitating its head from the stump and leaving the worm prone. As other worms began to feast on their slain cousin, Meiko saw Olivia hit and fight a worm that had consumed her legs and moved up her hips. Beside them, Camila's legs kicked as the carnictis reached her supple breasts, her head forming a fleshy orb within the creature's innards. 

Iryna was being forced to stand, her legs sinking into the mud as the carnictis the girl's weakened stance to consume her shoulders. Her breasts rocked and swayed, the nipples hard from unwanted stimulation as the Ukrainian fought in vain. The japanese girl saw that two carnictis' were fighting over Saga with only her torso and breasts being visible outside of their maws. The lacy bra was sheer enough almost be mere lines and outlines over Saga's tits, coated with mud, dirt and saliva. Her wide areola was erected under the thin fabric, nipples threatening to break through the weakened fabric.

Meiko made her decision and moved towards where the two worms fought for the swede teen in their maws. The one swallowing head-first pulled Saga out of the other and held her in the air victorious.  Her tired and muck covered legs spread wide for all to see her wet and glistening cunt visible through the lace short-shorts. Meiko cut down the other worm when she made it, watching as the worm pulled in the swede teen up to her wide hips. The terrified girl's head pressed against the creature's contorted innards, showing Meiko the despair written on her covered face as she was eaten.

She swung and cut into the black flesh of the worm and watched it tremble. She chopped and hacked until the worm fell to pieces and its head fell into the mire. Meiko slashed into the sinking flesh and found a gasping Saga. She pulled the teen to her feet, letting smaller worms grab chunks from their fallen comrade and began to consume it...

Avani cried out, pain gripping her as the white snake tightened its diamond coils around the brown human. In the tree tops above, The anaconda's ebony brother had coils wrapped around a tree and three wrapped around an increasingly weak Russian woman. 

The two brothers did not bother waiting for their prey to die and opened their mouths over the women. Galina's arms dangled at her side as her legs were taken into the snake's widening maw. Blood rushed to her head and she was not even conscious by the time the snake all too easily swallowed her thighs.

Avani whimpered, wondering what she had done to deserve being eaten like this. The indian girl's head was engulfed by the serpent's flexible jaws, the snake's coils keeping her in place as she was consumed. The muscular loops only loosened as the snake moved its stretching mouth over her slim shoulders.

Blindly oblivious to the peril of Avani and Galina, Larissa ran to the edge of the pit with rope. Before she could shout the news, she looked down in horror at what occurred below. Stunned by the sight, Larissa was caught by surprise when a dark serpent tackled her from behind and both tumbled away from the pit as it wrapped around her.

“The others...” Saga weakly managed, pointing a weary hand to where Camilla's attacker stretched over her huge tits. Nearby, Olivia's arms were trapped to her side, her attempts to dislodge herself failing as the worm's orifice wrapped over her navel.

“HELP!” Olivia screamed at no one and everyone. Iryna was beyond help, her chest seen as mere bulges under the worm's maw. Her hips were taken in as Iryna kicked out in a vain attempt to save herself.

"Iryna...I am sorry..." Meiko grabbed Saga and waded through the mud to where Camilla and Olivia struggled for their lives. But she suddenly felt something bite onto her left breast. She slashed on reflex, decapitating another worm and cutting another that had engulfed Saga's arm. With the mud so high, Meiko couldn't have known when the worm beneath her would engulf her legs in one swallow. 

“Meiko!” Saga shouted, distracted when another worm latched onto her head. Meiko chopped the appendage in half to free her friend, but her other arm was caught in the worm's maw as her hips were consumed. Another maw suddenly covered over Meiko's face, blinding her to when two worms attacked Saga. One grabbed her arm and pulled her into the mire, hitting her head and knocking her out of consciousness. The second worm swallowed over her flawless legs and quickly began to knead its blunt fangs over her ample rump.

Larissa was out cold on her side. Three large coils lazily piled around her body below her navel as the juvenile anaconda looked over its prey. This anaconda had never eaten a human and therefore was uncertain of where the head was. 

It peered over to where the diamond serpent had just engulfed over the indian girl's brown nipples. Her puffy areola could be seen upon her swaying massive breasts, swollen and erect as they were sucked into the expanded mouth of Diamond the Deathless. The scars of the anaconda widened over the bulge of Avani's slender form, even allowing a faint look at Avani's moist brown skin trapped within the snake's innards.

Up above, Ebon held onto the russian woman unconscious in its mouth, swallowing her stomach as she moaned below. No coils were necessary now and the great black snake scarred as much as his albino brother extended himself just enough to account for the human's height. The gums of its mouth could be seen upon the human's pink skin, stretching with the widened jaws of the snake as they supped.

Understanding, the juvenile followed the example of its elders and opened its mouth over the crown of Larissa's dark hair. Consuming the head was of no concern, Larissa's freckled face vanished to the world as it moved to the nape of her neck.

Another beheaded worm sank into the mud, already being set on by hungry neighbors. An exhausted Meiko held her sword defiantly, the worm consuming her having trouble with her gigantic breasts which now glistened with mucus, mud and sweat. These great mounds of fat and flesh jiggled with each of Meiko's labored breaths. She surveyed her situation and found it hopeless.

Having reached her thighs, it was too late for Camilla and even her struggles were lessened. Iryna's feet dangled out of her captor's mouth, tickled and washed by grime from within the worm. Olivia watched her attacker reach her tits. She was quiet as one supple soft breast was swallowed and then the other breast get sucked into the carnictis' maw as she took a moment to breath and silently weep. Her face red with heat from the climax her gobbler was giving her as its innards rubbed her clit and nipples.

“Ella...Vivika...help...me...” Poor Saga's back arched back, her compressed titanic breasts now halfway consumed by the carnictis devouring her. She seemed half conscious to Meiko and looked too tired to even try to resist. Meiko herself was in no better state, even with her sword she was more likely to stab and kill herself if she tried to attack the worm tasting the underside of her breasts. And at the angle she was forced into, her chances of striking the worm were slim.

Instead, she accepted her fate.

Up above, Diamond was tasting the thick thighs of his quarry. Avani's brown legs kicked uselessly and had no strength behind them. Ebon gulped down Galina's breasts, their soft forms relaxing into a natural position within the snake's form. Galina groaned in discomfort when her shoulders were forced closer to her head, the snake swallowing over both with minimal effort.

The juvenile was having trouble stretching its mouth over Larissa's breasts. It was enough of a struggle to get around the girl's shoulders, but now it took all of the anaconda's efforts to go any further. It would have to take its time, letting its mouth extend slowly over the human until it could finally go further. Moments passed before it finally overcame those mounds of fat and flesh. From there, Larissa's consumption would be easier even when the hips were reached...

Meiko pushed out, slashing the side of the carnictus that was sucking down Saga. The first cut was too shallow and the worm didn't notice, pressing down Saga's breasts as she whimpered powerlessly. Meiko screamed as she hacked again, this time landing a deeper wound into the vermicular creature. It shook in pain, the deep laceration widening as the mouth lost strength. Finally, it fell into the muck, expelling Saga into the mud where she began to wade to the cliffs.

Unable to hold on, Meiko let her sword drop out of her hand. The powerful suction of the meat-weasel overwhelmed her gigantic bust, pulling each breast into its maw. The daughter of samurai did not fight this fate, she simply let the worm pull her into it, pushing her arm into its maw to keep it from being dislocated. The creature's disgusting mouth reached her shoulders, her breasts were only visible as a pair of bulges underneath the worm's gut.

“I'm...I'm so sorry...” Olivia managed, her head alone sticking out of the pink maw that bulged around her shapely body. Camila's feet were sucked into her predator, its pink form distended by the struggling prey inside as it withdrew into its black shell. Already consumed, Iryna squirmed in vain within the pink prison of her carnictis. The mouth retracted into its body, sealing Iryna with ease and ensuring no chance of escape. Meiko was not even struggling as the worm's mouth encompassed around her head and sucked her down. Soon, Olivia too was pulled to her doom and her consumed sister's form was the last thing she saw before the carnictis' closed its mouth over her face.

Galina's arms were sucked into Ebon's maw as it began to relax, its coils wrapped around the tree to keep it from falling. With so much weight towards its front, a misplaced loop could lead to a tumble to the hard ground below. The athletic Russian beauty was nothing more than a distortion within the snake's body, her hands pulled in as the snake closed its mouth.

Below it, Ebon's albino brother was already finished consuming Avani. The bulge of Avani's form struggled and squirmed, but it was a vain gesture. Both Diamond and Avani knew that there was no escape.

Nearby, the juvenile was slowly moving down Larissa's legs, its body stretched over her body as it took cautious effort to finish the meal. This was the first human that the juvenile had ever eaten and it would grow far larger from the nutrients of this healthy unfortunate daughter of Ukraine.

Despite her attempts, the mud was too damp and slippery for Saga to climb up. She dared not look back, having already seen glances of the bloated worms that were gorged on her friends and the stranger who'd saved her. She had to get out or Meiko's sacrifice will have been in vain.

She gasped when she felt a familiar grip suck in her foot. She looked down to see a carnictis relentlessly pull on the foot and extend up to her shin. As she was pulled back down into the pit, Saga kicked at the carnictis with her free foot and instead caught both feet caught in its mouth. She wriggled her legs, tying to dislodge the worm, but it was no use. She was pulled onto her back into the mire with a splash and had to wipe the mud from her face. 

She saw the carnictis move up her legs and Saga tearfully starting hitting the mouth with all her might. 

She was now alone in the mire as the other worms had either been gorged, gone back to sleep or were dead at the hands of the now consumed Meiko. Saga spotted the four fattened carnictis' and screamed out in despair. She did not want to die and yet there was nothing stopping this worm from pressing its maw over her pelvis.

For the third time she felt rancid flesh push against her pussy. She arced her back as ectasy assaulted her from the carnictis' accidental probing. She was still screaming, but now her tones were filled with pleasure as the foul worm moved over her stomach.

“This way! Down there!” Up in the tree, three engorged anacondas looked down upon the humans newly arriving on the scene. Their swollen bodies held three inert girls who would be digested within several weeks. The young juvenile was not used to the weight in its body and it showed by how it struggled to stay in the branches. However, it was stabilized soon and would leave to feed again. The older snakes showed no difficulty in maintaining their balance in the canopy, their speed unaffected by bulges in their forms. 

“No! Saga!” The snakes couldn't see what the humans saw from their angle in the trees. They saw several humans slid down the pit, a few staying up holding rope for the others. “Hold on Saga!”

With the King on the hunt, the brothers considered themselves fortunate to have snagged the suppers trapped in their bowels. They would not need to feed for weeks and would not have to fear starving due to the appetite of the King who lurked somewhere in this jungle. Nor worry about accidently sending humans down to the pits where the meat-weasels would devour them. Nor concern themselves with the other contenders of this vast jungle.

As they squirmed their way through the trees, the two brothers now thought of other hunting grounds where they would not have to compete with other contenders...

“Help me!” Saga screamed with all her might, the carnictis reaching over her shoulders when the others slid down to where she lied. Fatsani took out a knife and started stabbing the top of the worm's maw, trying to dislodge its grip on her friend. Nichoni grabbed onto the maw to keep it from retracting into it's dark shell beneath them. Noriyo jumped into the mire, her eyes widening in horror when she saw the katana partially submerged in the pit.

“Sempei...” She muttered with sorrow. Little did she know that the very carnictis that ate Noriyo was resting right next to her, it's form distorted around the beautiful maiden within. Noriyo grabbed the sword when she heard Saga cry out, turning back to see the worm swallow up to her chin despite the efforts of her friends. 

With an angry shout, Noriyo stabbed the sword through the back of the worm. The meat-weasel was not mortally wounded, but it was hurt and the wound was sapping its strength. It swiftly retracted its maw from around Saga, leaving her body coated with grime as it fell back into the muck. Noriyo looked upon the worms and wanted to cut them all down.

“Meiko! Come on!” Fatsani called out, Nichoni was helping a weakened Saga grab rope and both began to trek up the the damp wall. Noriyo looked about the mud pool and saw that more worms were emerging from sleep, sensing that more prey had arrived.

“Meiko...” Noriyo hopped onto the wall, narrowly avoiding the grabbing jaws of a carnictis and she and Fatsani started to climb up the pit. At the time, Rose and Zaida held their ropes, keeping it stabile and sturdy for the others to climb out with the filthy and devastated Saga.

“It's alright...” Nichoni held Saga as she cried. “It's okay.”

“Where's Galina?” Meiko asked as she looked around the pit. “And...Larissa and Avani?”

“They should be here.” Rose noted and quickly looked around the area. The sun beamed down on the frantic beauties as they tried to spot their friends. 

“LARISSA! AVANI!”

“Quiet! They'll hear us!” Fatsani rebuked the german youth, referring to the monsters still hunting them. “They're gone too...just like Iryna...Camilla and Olivia...”

“And Meiko...” Noriyo fell to her knees, tears falling from her eyes as she looked down upon the sword in her hands. “We should never have taken this trip.”

Fatsani put a hand on the crying schoolgirl, knowing that this was not enough to assaunge her sorrow. “I'm sorry about your friend...if you hadn't helped us...we'd be-”

“Captives of men who wish to enslave you.” Noriyo said, her face still looking down. “Meiko was always willing to help others even if it hurt her. Galina...was the same despite her protests. We have no regrets about helping you.”

The only thing that Meiko regretted was convincing Noriyo to come on this cursed adventure...
