Chapter 16

Olban!

Olban felt the achiness throughout his whole body. He couldn't remember what had happened the day before.

"Can't I just sleep for a little longer Gareth?" He yelled.

Wow, he really likes his sleep... Eloise said.

You have no idea. Gareth responded, And to answer your question Olban, no, you can't. We are currently eaten alive and stuck inside of some weird monster's stomach.

Everything was coming back to Olban now. The game, the way Maiko was running, and the monster.

"Holy crap!" Olban said jolting awake he looked around. It was disgusting! Olban gagged a little.

Please don't do that! Eloise said, I still feel your bodily functions and was barely able to suppress my own vomit... that I can't dispose of!

"What? Why aren't we dead?" Olban asked. He stood there trying not to throw up.

Just close your eyes! Eloise yelled in Olban's mind That's what I tried to do! When you were snoozing oh so babylike!

Wow Eloise, wake up on the wrong side of the bed this morning?

Actually, I woke up in something's stomach, beleve it or not.

"Wait, I sleep with my eyes open? That bad arse! Anyway, how are we supposed to get out of here?"

I dunno

Thanks, Gareth... Eloise said sarcaticly.

Your welcome Eloise.

Just so you know Gareth, I'm trying to roll Oblans eyes right now.

As long as your not rolling my head.

"Would you two shut up?" Olban yelled, "I can't think with you two constantly yapping in my head!"

Eloise and Gareth quieted down.

Olban looked around.

Hey Olban...

"I said shut up Eloise!" Olban snapped "So just shut up!"

But...

"I don't want to hear it!"

But I see your sword!

"Where?"

I thought you "didn't want to hear it".

"Well, I changed my mind!"

It's uhh...

"Come on Eloise... spit it out!"

It's up.

"What?" Olban looked up and low and behold there was his sword hanging on some slimy rope thing.

That's a problem.

How are we supposed to get up there?

"You mean how am I supposed to get up there?

Mhm.

"I'll figure something out."

Olban looked around for a while trying to find a way up to his sword. The inside of this thing's stomach was almost all green. There was green stomach acid slowly climbing upward. Green slimy rope-like things (Like the one holding Olbans sword) were hanging down from everywhere. Olban followed them with his eyes to find a way up. He mapped out a path and grabbed one of the ropes and tugged on it.

Ew. Eloise said.

Wow, Gareth said Are we really this desperate?

"Of course, we're this desperate!" Olban yelled, "We're inside something's stomach!"

Good point,

Let's just get this over with.

Olban started to climb on the ropes every once in a while he would have to swing like Tarzan and jump to another rope. Eventually, they were in arms reaching distance.

Alright, now all we have to do is knock it over or grab it.

Olban reached for the sword. His fingers touched the handle. He pushed forward a little more knocking it over. It fell to where they started and landed point down. Air rushed past them as the monster screamed in agony. The gust of air knocked Olban off balance and they all fell down.

Oof!

Ow!

"Ugh!"

The three played there in Olbans body.

Did anything break Olby?

Olby?

"Olby?"

Never mind, is anything broken?"

"I don't think so."

Good, cuz if you don't mind, I'd like to leave now.

"Sure thing." Olban got up and grabbed his sword. He stuck it through the slimy skin. The monster bellowed from the pain. Olban started to cut a hole through it. After about a minute of Olban cutting and the monster screams, Olban got through and jumped through the hole.

The slime monster fell on its back and died as stomach acids started to leak out of the human-sized hole.

We... are never... doing that again. Eloise said.

Agreed.

"Yeah."

But we still have one problem

"What now?" Olban sighed.

Where are we?
