“Lyra!”

“Lyra, where are you?!” yelled Bon Bon, as a twinge of annoyance trembled in the mare’s voice.
The earth pony growing increasingly irritated by her lover’s lack of a response, as she assumed her partner was planning on playing a prank on her. Bon Bon sure Lyra couldn’t have gotten too far, as the mint green unicorn had seemingly wandered off without a word halfway through the pair setting up what would have been a perfect picnic. The fact her significant other had silently slinked off gave Bon Bon reason to believe the exploring equine was just within earshot waiting for the perfect opportunity to spring from behind a tree to startle her searching spouse. The two having played this one-sided game of hide and seek many times before, and Bon Bon already knew it would end with the unicorn collapsed in a heap chuckling uncontrollably at her flustered friend’s expense.

“Lyra!”

“Lyra!” repeated Bon Bon like a miffed mantra, as though the mithering repetition might reap results that the past hundred utterances had overlooked. The peeved pony beginning to grow worried at the lack of a response, as at this point, she normally heard Lyra’s giddy giggling revealing her location before she could spring from the shadows for a cheap scare. The mare never staying this silent for so long, and that gave the earth pony the ickling feeling that something was wrong,

“Come on Lyra, I’m not in the mood, the pie is going to get cold, “moaned Bon Bon, as she scanned the tree line for the missing mare, but just like everything else the equine got nothing for the exertion. The earth pony blissfully unaware that her special somepony was now just a squirming snack in some beast’s belly, and that single portion of pony meat was nowhere close to sating the gluttonous creature lurking menacingly in the shade. The massive monstrosity biding its time as it patiently waited for the moment to strike, as soon this yapping second course would be within striking distance and she could join her friend currently stewing in its stomach.

The aggressive amphibian a Gargling Gollox, an apex ambush predator which Lyra had had already had the misfortune of meeting, when she unwittingly bumbled into the waiting predator. The mare not even seeing the beast until it was ingesting her, as the fearsome frog spent most of its time partially buried in moist moss and soft soils, lest its sensitive skin dry out leaving its slimy hide chapped and cracked. The Gollox hiding the majority of its bulk beneath the topsoil, with only its emerald eyes peeking out on a constant lookout for unsuspecting prey. The titanic tetrapod just watching Bon Bon meander about looking rather lost with an uncaring stare, before it grew tired of its dinner’s dilly-dallying and made a low murmuring vocalisation to attract her attention.

“Lyra? Is that you? “asked Bon Bon, her ears tilted slightly in a sceptical fashion, as she tried to pinpoint the direction of the disturbance. The mare’s head slowly spinning to the area to her left, the equine unsure what had made the noise, but at this point, she was convinced it was Lyra messing with her. Bon Bon cocking her head quizzically, as she began to cautiously inch ever closer as she bit the bate and fell into the frog’s trap, hook line and sinker. The earth pony expecting Lyra to pop out of the grass with a silly look on her face, but the mare failed to materialize, leaving Bon Bon with an unimpressed look plastered across her face as she approached.

“Stop messing around Lyra…” Grumbled Bon Bon as the mare voiced her displeasure at this unamusing attempt at humour. The earth pony oblivious to the threat, as Bon Bon was too caught up reprimanding her yet unseen partner that she had failed to notice the ominous fact the birds had stopped singing.

“This isn’t funny Lyra, I made us something specia……”

SLAP!

GULP!!

The Gollox abruptly cutting off her griping, as it eagerly erupted from the ground to claim its prize. Its long tongue striking Bon Bon centre mass before it rapidly retracted pulling the startled pony directly into its cavernous maw. The parted mandibles practically enveloping the pony as in an instant she was reduced to a twitching tail and a frantically waving hoof. The rest of the pony relegated to a barely discernible bulge jostling in the Gollox’s broad belly.

A muffled meep escaping from the lively lump before the Gollox gave a powerful blink and forced the mare down its throat with a sudden flux of punishing pressure. The whole affair over in the blink of an eye, as the mare was reduced to a meal with a single swallow, the wink just the cherry on top as it cast her off for her short stay in its sloshing stomach. The gollox clapping its lips smugly as it slowly licked its lips, almost as if it was savouring Bon Bon’s sugary aftertaste. The beast lethargically mulling the mare as she slowly slithered down its stubby gullet as nothing more than another quivering mass of confused flesh. Bon Bon going down smooth, her body going limp as her mind locked up and she rode down the claggy chute in a gentle flow before being rudely shoved through the stomach sphincter to join her simmering girlfriend. The earth pony just in complete shock, unable to react to the consumptive circumstances, as she was roughly dumped in the dank digestive chamber with her distraught darling. The overloading stimuli of being swallowed giving Bon Bon shellshock, the mare mute and shivering, but at least she had found the still wriggling Lyra to keep her company in the short time before they suffocated…
