Personal Pool Party
By: IndigoRho

The sun was just beginning to set, casting delightful shades of orange and pink on the scattered clouds as it crept behind the roofs of the neighborhood. Despite this, the late afternoon air was still quite warm, at least warm enough that the handful of guests left at Indigo's pool party remained outside in their swim trunks. Two were lazing in the aging, round above-ground pool, while the others stood near the cooling grill, talking amongst themselves.

“C'mon Indi, just try it,” Bod, a red and yellow scaled dragon said, carefully waving a paper plate loaded with a hot dog at his friend.

Indigo, a rather portly blue cheetah, looked at the hot dog with suspicion. “It looks tasty, but I can't handle spicy food, like at all.”

“It's not that spicy, trust me,” Bod insisted, tempting the large cheetah as best he could. “There's a full glass of water on the table if you need it, you'll be fine.”

“Really, I'm a lightweight with spice. What if it ruins my appetite?” Indigo said, his eyes following the hot dog's every movement.

“One spicy hot dog isn't gonna ruin ya, at least have one bite.” Bod made sure there was no escaping the offering. “I'll give up my burger if you do! What's the worst that could happen?”

Indigo's eyes darted back and forth between Bod and the hot dog, until the peer pressure finally broke him. “Ok, ok, I'll try it!” he said, grabbing the hot dog with utmost care, as if it were toxic. “Though you'd better give me that extra burger, or I'm adding dragon to the menu tonight.”

Bod didn't take Indigo's threat too seriously. While the cheetah was more than willing to stuff himself with friends, he was also very easy to evade at his current size. He'd have no trouble simply walking away from him if he decided to be a gluttonous oaf. After spending far too long glaring at the menacing hot dog in his paw, Indigo took a bite. At first everything seemed ok, just a small hint of warmth on his tongue. Then the feeling of warmth turned into one of outright heat, then burning. Indigo dropped the rest of the hot dog and frantically waved his paw over his mouth in a pitiful attempt to fan the heat away. Proving ineffective, the cheetah grabbed the glass of water from the table and began to chug it furiously, water dribbling down his cheeks in the process.

Bod quietly chuckled to himself. Just a week before, Indigo had sabotaged one of his air tanks as a prank, causing his casual inflation session to end with a literal bang. He'd spent all week thinking of ways to get back at his friend, and had settled on a simple hot sauce revenge for the time being. A flashier vengeance would have to wait till later. Indigo had finished draining the glass, recklessly tossing it aside to search for more water. Unfortunately, the rest of the drinks were still in the house, leaving Indigo with few options to quell the oppressive heat in his mouth. He didn't notice the satisfied look on Bod's face, his mind focused entirely finding water, any water. The cheetah abruptly waddled off as fast as he could manage.

“Ha! Too easy,” Bod congratulated himself. “Mess with my air tanks and I'll mess with your food!” He was about to tease his friend for falling for such an obvious ruse when he realized Indigo was heading right towards the pool. “Uh-oh.”

Meanwhile, the other two party guests were simply enjoying the cool water, blissfully unaware of the prank unfolding. Nommz, a chubby dragonmutt, was wading near the edge, distracting himself with one of the many floating lights dotting the pool, while the massive german shephard Shiriko relaxed on a floatie that struggled to hold his immense weight. They had both chosen to remain in the pool while the food was checked on, each eagerly awaiting the eventual call to dinner.

Despite being the smaller of the duo, Nommz's stomach managed to growl the loudest. “Ugh, I hope the food's ready soon, I'm starving!”

“You've got a heck of an appetite for a little guy,” Shiriko laughed. “I swear you've got a stomach of someone twice your weight!”

Nommz glared at Shiriko. “I've got a perfectly healthy appetite!”

“Can't be all that healthy if you're still so scrawny,” Shiriko said, giving his belly a solid shake that wobbled his floatie. “You gotta take some inspiration from me and Indi and bulk up, put some fat on those dragonmutt bones!”

Nommz's stomach growled again. “I'm sure a tasty blubber dog would put plenty of fat on me,” he licked his lips, suddenly seeing Shiriko in a whole new light. “Maybe I'll have burger-stuffed cheetah for dessert, too. I'll make sure to tell him who gave me the idea.”

“W-wait Nommz, I was joking!” Shiriko swayed back and forth on his floatie, trying to put himself in a position to paddle away if Nommz decided to act on his threats.

Before the shepard or dragonmutt could continue, a loud Thump dominated their attention, as ripples raced across the surface of the pool. While Shiriko's back was turned to the source of the sound, Nommz had a clear view of the terror unfolding. Indigo was on the dry side of the pool, slamming his paws against a quickly-weakening panel, his mouth wide open. He wanted to hope the act was just a goofy prank, Indigo's dumb way of telling them food was ready, but there was a far likelier chance the gluttonous cheetah had simply decided to gorge on his guests. For all he knew, Indigo's belly could be filled and squirming with the others, Shiriko and him being the last two left uneaten. Rather than waste time trying to negotiate with a hungry force of nature, Nommz desperately reached for the nearby edge of the pool, and potential safety. The panel gave way just as he did.

With a terrible crack a chunk of the pool caved in, just large enough for Indigo to shove his head through. The water within the pool immediately began to cascade right into the cheetah's wide open mouth and down his throat. Shiriko yelped at the noise, then again once he looked over his shoulder and saw the maw threatening to drain the whole pool. He rolled off his floatie and frantically paddled towards the edge and Nommz, right as a current began to form and reverse his progress. By sheer luck he was able to grab a hold of Nommz's footpaws before he could be pulled away to his doom. Nommz felt the dramatic increase in weight right away, his grip on the pool's ledge loosening immediately.

“Weh! Let go fatty!” Nommz shouted. “I'm not becoming chow for the other fatty today!”

“Never, I don't want to become cheetah pudge!” Shiriko yelled back, his grip on the dragonmutt vice-like.

Nommz attempted to wiggle his way out of the shepard's grasp, to no avail. “You've already provided at least half the flab on his gut, just take another one for the team!”

“That's not...I mean...technically...not fair!” Shiriko said, blushing.

As Nommz and Shiriko argued about who deserved to get eaten, Indigo gave his completely undivided attention towards gulping down as much water as it took to put out the fire on his tongue. The cheetah's already sizable gut had begun to balloon outward as soon as the torrent of water started, rapidly swelling into the side of the pool and then onto the grass below. Within less than a minute his middle had bloated so much his footpaws actually lifted up off the ground. Bobbing pool lights were drawn into his maw one after another, Indigo barely noticing their presence as they slid down his throat to light up the new pool forming his stomach. Even Shiriko's floatie didn't register in the obsessed cheetah's mind.

By the time Bod had cautiously caught up with his friend, Indigo was already resting on a massively swollen belly that was still relentlessly spreading outward in all directions. The dragon was surprised by Indigo's overreaction to the spice, though he had to admit the result was proving to be delightfully amusing, not to mention at least a bit more karmic. At the rate Indigo was going he'd become a big, wobbling water balloon cheetah in no time. Besides being easier to tease, he'd also be far less likely to gorge on his own party guests, something Bod had witnessed far too often to count. Thanks to his prank, everyone would be able to relax and enjoy their food while the sun set and Indigo complained about being hungry. He was beginning to think some thanks were in order.

Unfortunately, Bod's confidence in the overwhelming success of his prank—along with the sight-blocking bulk of the swelling cheetah—prevented him from noticing the peril faced by Shiriko and Nommz. The current leading into Indigo's maw was only growing stronger, and while Shiriko's grip on Nommz held firm, Nommz's grip on the pool's edge was getting weaker and weaker. Indigo's middle pushed against the side of the pool as the water levels dropped while the rest of his body gradually leaned over, ensuring the pool never stopped emptying. Inevitably, Nommz's grip failed him. With a loud whine he was torn away from the edge, his desperate attempts to paddle against the current proving futile while he remained anchored to Shiriko. The obese shephard only held on tighter, unwilling to be consumed alone.

Despite Shiriko's considerable size, the sheer force of the flowing water was enough to cause the entire lower half of his body to glide effortlessly into Indigo's mouth and down the cheetah's throat, leaving his footpaws dangling above the expansive cavern of the expanded stomach. Even his blubbery gut was only momentarily wedged inside his friend's mouth, steadily moved along by a combination of water and aggressive swallows from Indigo. He could feel the cheetah's throat pulling him in inch by inch, and swore he heard Indigo purr a little as he gulped down the hefty shephard. Shiriko's belly and chest were finally slurped up, his chin resting upon Indigo's tongue. Water splashed at his eyes as a swallow drew him into the back of the throat, the light of the outside world growing dimmer, and he could feel the weight of his own gut trying to pull him in further as it slipped into the stomach. With a whimper, gravity finally won out, and Shiriko was forced to relinquish his grip on Nommz as he plunged into the internal pool of Indigo's stomach.

For a brief moment Nommz believed there was a chance for salvation as he felt Shiriko's grasp disappear. Then he felt his footpaws slide across Indigo's tongue. Then his knees, and his belly, and his shoulders. The journey of the blubbery shephard to his doom had managed to temporarily stretch out both Indigo's mouth and throat, increasing the intake of water and making it even easier for Nommz to get sucked in. Nommz was swallowed so fast he barely had time to register what was happening, going from open air to flooded stomach in a matter of seconds. He struggled to stand in the horrid prison, stumbling out of the waterfall pouring from the throat that was rapidly moving as Indigo's bulk shifted lower. The greedily consumed pool lights bobbed up in down in the rough waters, illuminating the stomach in a way neither Nommz or Shiriko were much used to.

Indigo had swallowed enough water and air to make his stomach expansive enough to comfortably stand up in. While making the experience slightly less oppressive than normal, the height also made reaching the throat again and attempting escape essentially impossible, especially with water still gushing in. The pair watched with morbid fascination as the stomach shifted and swelled all around them, the faint sounds of the pool wall being cracked apart by Indi's bulk echoing within. Both were already waist-deep in water, though fortunately the cheetah's middle appeared content on growing along with it's contents, ensuring they at least wouldn't drown. Not that that was a much better fate than being digested.

Eventually, Indigo's chin reached the bottom of the pool, the last of the water trickling down his throat. He groaned, overwhelmed by how bloated and heavy he'd become. At the very least his tongue no longer burned. Indigo still technically lay on his middle, though it'd swelled out behind him like an immense blue balloon. Content that he was safe, Bod slowly walked around the cheetah's perimeter, giving Indigo's hide a few playful pats. He chuckled as his touch made Indigo's belly wobble, hearing the muffled sloshing of water within, along with faint noises of disapproval from the cheetah himself. Bod still remained alert, regardless of his friend's apparent immobility. Being rolled over by a water-logged cheetah wouldn't do him any good. While patting a spot further along the cheetah's middle, though, Bod was surprised to feel the blue belly pat back.

“Is someone out there? Help!” Nommz's muffled plea came from within Indigo.

Bod gulped, remembering far too late that Nommz and Shiriko had both still been in the pool when Indigo decided he needed the drink of a lifetime. “Oopsies.”

“Bod? Bod get us out! Indi went on a gluttonous rampage again and ate me! And most of the pool. And Shiriko I guess,” Nommz yelled, staying close to the slick walls of the stomach so he could be heard.

“Uh, well, you know I'd love to help, I really would, but I get the feeling Indi might just eat me if I try to rescue you two, especially after what I did,” Bod said.

The revelation only confused Nommz. “Wait, what did you do?”

A loud belch vibrated Indigo's entire body, causing the surface of the cheetah to ripple. “You're gonna pay for this Bod!” Indigo grumbled loudly. “Walk over to my face so I can eat you!”

“Uh, maybe another time buddy, haven't you had enough as it is?” Bod chuckled, remaining safely out of sight.

“I've always got room for revenge!” Indigo shouted, rather non-threateningly. “Like this!” His legs flailed a bit as he wobbled atop his swollen middle, a pitiful attempt to roll in the direction Bod's voice was coming from. He only managed to embarrass himself.

Bod laughed. “I appreciate the effort but you aren't going anywhere any time soon,
Indi!”

“I swear, if I got eaten because of a dumb prank!” Nommz fumed, the imprints of punches appearing on the cheetah's hide.

“Well the food's starting to get cold and I'm thinking this is the most dangerous spot to be right now, so...uh...good luck in there!” Bod said, before hurrying away from the mess he'd inadvertently caused.

Inside Indigo's stomach, Nommz tread water in frustration, the “pool” now too deep to stand in. Nommz had devoted a considerable amount of effort planning how best to avoid being eaten by Indigo at the party. He'd made sure not to arrive early so Indigo didn't use him as a pre-party snack, kept a safe distance any time the cheetah complained about the food not being done, even waited in the pool till the food was finished so Indigo could have his fill. If anything, the dragonmutt should have been in a good position to gobble up the fat cheetah himself if the opportunity arose. Instead, all his meticulous planning had been ruined, potentially by a goofy prank. Even then, he might have been able to escape if Shiriko hadn't taken him down with him. Shiriko. While Bod was safely on the other side of a stomach wall and Indigo too bloated to deal with, the german shepard was right there in the cheetah belly with him.

Nommz slowly turned to face Shiriko, who was paddling near the center of the
stomach. “I'm still hungry, you know.”

Shiriko gulped. “N-nommz, let's not do anything hasty, Indi might belch us out on accident or something!”

“Well if he does I'll just be ready for course two,” Nommz said with a grin on his face, before suddenly disappearing under the water.

Shiriko nervously scanned the area, the light too dim to see beneath the surface. He hoped the dragonmutt had been joking, but knew the chances of that were far slimmer than he. The shepard whimpered as he felt something brush against a footpaw, then the other. All he could do was yelp once Nommz's paws grabbed his ankles, before being pulled under. Shiriko's paws flailed in the air as he desperately attempted to swim to safety, but they too quickly vanished from sight, leaving a roiling patch of water in their wake. After a couple short minutes the turmoil settled down, replaced by a steady stream of small bubbles, then one, large bubble that filled the stomach with an echoing belch as it popped.

A massive, bulging brown belly breached the surface, eventually followed by the rest of Nommz. The dragonmutt floated on his back in the water, rubbing his dog-stuffed gut with glee, his hunger finally sated. Shiriko's struggles caused him to bob up and down, though Nommz managed to remain just buoyant enough to stay afloat. Sure, consuming a meal twice his weight was a tad bit overindulgent, but the dragonmutt felt he deserved the treat after what he'd been and was about to go through. Besides, Shiriko was doomed to become pudge no matter what, it might as well be dragonmutt pudge.

“Enjoying your new floatie, Shiriko?” Nommz teased, patting his belly.

The response was fairly muffled, but still audible. “P-please Nommz, let me out!” Shiriko begged.

“If you hadn't grabbed on to me you could have had the entire cheetah stomach to yourself, plenty of room to relax while you waited for digestion,” Nommz replied, obviously still a little bitter. “Instead you get to be crammed into a dragonmutt gut with barely any room to move!”

“I thought you'd be able to hold on!” Shiriko lied.

Nommz slapped his belly again. “Less complaining more digesting! No telling how long this pool water will delay me becoming cheetah fat, and I wouldn't mind adding some blubber dog to my middle before then.”

Shiriko could only wobble in response.
