Forya whistled as she cleaned the counter with a rag, making sure that it was clean enough before the first customers arrived. The vixen had just opened her flower shop for the business day and was pretty much ready. Dozens of potted plants stood on shelves or hung from the ceiling, clearly visible through her shop's window display. The sign on the door had been flipped over to say "OPEN".

Forya looked like one's typical female fox, with soft red fur, white fur on her muzzle that went down her neck and tummy and the tip of her tail, and black glove fur on her paws and feet. What made her stand out, or rather didn't make her stand out, was the fact that she was only 3 feet in high. Her diminutive height, however, did not stand in her way from opening a successful flower shop in one of the more affluent middle-class suburbs of the city. The many step ladders she had also helped a good deal.

A small bell rang, indicating somebody had opened the door. Forya looked up and saw Jessie the female kangaroo come into the shop. She stopped wiping the table and smiled at her.

"Good morning, Jessie." Forya greeted the kangaroo.

"Morning, Forya." replied Jessie in an Australian accent.

Jessie was a young kangaroo who was athletically-built and had pretty looks. Her fur was a light brown all over, with the exception being the fur on her tummy and the underside of her big tail. Her golden hair was tied in a ponytail that reached halfway down her back. She wore a green short-sleeved shirt and denim jeans that fitted over her powerful kangaroo legs. On her back she had her backpack and in her one hand was today's daily newspaper.

Jessie hopped on over to the counter and put the newspaper down. Forya turned the newspaper and folded it open.

"What are the headlines this morning?" Forya asked as she briefly looked over the paper.

"Nothing much. The mayor's proposing a new super mall, is what I read. I haven't had much time to read it." Jessie admitted.

"Ah, okay. Well, you got and get dressed and then check on the greenhouse."

"Right, boss." Jessie said while nodding.

Jessie hopped on through one of the doorways leading to the back of shop. The kangaroo was to put on some green overalls, much the same as what Forya wore except it fitted to her frame. Forya watched her assistant go. Jessie had recently come to the city along with her husband Wally, who worked for a major electronics company. Jessie didn't want to be a simple housewife and, encouraged by Wally, went looking for a job. Forya hired her, since she had trouble running the shop by herself now that business was booming. Jessie was pleasant and hard-working and somebody to talk to. For that, Forya was thankful. She then turned her attention to the paper and began to read.

The main story was indeed about the mayor proposing to have a new mall built on the site of an old brick factory. It did not interest the vixen, so she went on to the other articles. One mentioned the investigation into the strange holes that were found on a cruise liner that docked three days ago in the harbor. Another talked about the decrease in overall crime. One article that caught Forya's eye was a story about a few young furries that have gone missing over the past few days. First starting with a pair of rabbit teenagers, three more females have gone missing without traces. The police warned that a kidnapping syndicate might be working in the city. Forya noted to herself to be on the lookout for suspicious characters who visit her shop.

The bell rang again just Forya reached the business pages. She looked up and saw a familiar face enter her shop: Cathline. Cathline was an elf with red hair and, unlike most elves, had a skin with a slight red hue and a curvy body that would make males drool. The elf wore a red business jacket and skirt with heels and a white blouse. Forya smiled at the elf as she came in.

"Morning, Cathline!" Forya greeted the elf pleasantly.

Cathline and walked to the counter, smiling back with her heels clicking on the stone floor.

"Hi there, Forya. How's business?" asked Cathline as she came to the counter.

"It's been good so far. I've gotten a lot of customers now that the school holiday has started. How about you?" asked Forya.

"Just the usual. Making calls to investors, signing contracts, getting business deals, watching the boss yell for no particular reason." the elf said with a smirk.

Forya giggled.

"Is he still short-tempered?" asked Forya.

Cathline rolled her eyes and made an mock sigh.

"Yup. Mister all-steamed-up, especially now that one big investment of his is in the dock. You know the Ocean Stallion?" asked Cathline.

"That ship that came with the holes in it?"

"Yeah. Well, my boss had a big interest in the company that owns it. Now that ship has to sit in the dry dock, he's been watching the value of his share drop. He says his stocks is dropping like a stone, but they've dropped a few bucks or so. But it still has him all worked up." Cathline said with a roll of her eyes.

Forya could just shake her head and be thankful that she did not have such a boss, or worse, WAS such a boss.

"So why are you here, Cathline? Aren't you going to be late for work?" the vixen changed the subject.

"No, not today. I've gotten a bit of free time this morning to do some shopping before I have to go meet a client." replied Cathline.

"And you're got some shopping to do here, I hope?" asked Forya with a curious look.

Cathline leaned forward on the counter.

"You bet. I want to get some nice flowers for my apartment before my boyfriend returns back home from his business trip," the elf said with a grin.

Forya grinned back, her tail wagging at the prospect of making another sale today. She folded up the newspaper and put it under the counter.

"Great! What kind of flowers would you like?" asked Forya.

"Oh, I don't know. Something that looks and smells nice."

"Well, how about I get the catalogue out and then we can look and see what is in season?"

Cathline nodded as Forya reached down under the counter. She came up with a magazine-like catalogue that was printed especially for her shop. Putting it down on the counter, Forya paged through it to find the section with flowers that are in season at this time. She and Cathline began to look at and discuss the various kinds of flowers available.

At one point Forya thought she heard some kind of strange noise from the greenhouse behind the shop. She then probably figured it was Jessie who was doing her work back there and turned her attention back to Cathline and the catalogue.

Jessie came hopping back to the front of the shop, where Forya and Cathline were discussing the best flower combinations to go with the elf's apartment. The female Kangaroo was wearing the same kind of green overalls that Forya had. Forya turned to look at Jessie and saw that her assistant had a very excited look on her face. The vixen also noticed that Jessie's hair looked a bit messed up as well.

Cathline also turned to nod her head at Jessie.

"Hi, Jessie." Cathline said.

"Jessie, could you..." Forya began to say, but before could complete her sentence Jessie spoke out excitedly, pointing towards the back of the shop.

"You two must come quickly. There's something I have to show you." Jessie said in an excited voice.

Both Forya and Cathline looked at each other, and then back at Jessie.

"What are you talking about?" asked Forya in confusion.

"Just come. It is magnificent." replied Jessie.

Forya could not understand what her assistant was talking about, but decided to go see what it is. She climbed off the chair she was standing on and walked around the counter to join Jessie.

"Okay, show me what it is." said Forya.

Jessie hopped towards the greenhouse. Cathline then came over to Forya.

"I'll come along. Maybe you can show me some of the flowers." Cathline said in suggestion.

"Good idea." nodded Forya.

The vixen and the elf then proceeded to follow the kangaroo female towards the greenhouse.


The greenhouse was located right against the back of the shop, nestled in the centre of a ring of several small-business buildings that rose no higher than a single story. The various kinds of flowers were all neatly arranged into rows by type, color and season. A system of sprinklers ran along the roof and on the ground. Gardening tools and equipment were neatly stored in cabinets and racks scattered about the gardens.

Jessie led the way into the greenhouse, with Forya and Cathline following after her. The kangaroo hopped along one of the rows containing varieties of roses, daffodils and dandelions. Cathline stopped to admire the blooming flowers, with Forya standing next to her.

"These flowers look just the catalogues!" the elf exclaimed pleasantly.

"I try not be like some flower business, who only show you good-looking flowers on paper and not in a real pot." Forya said with a hint of pride.

Jessie kept hopping on, not aware yet that the others have been distracted. When she looked back, she immediately stopped and turned back. Forya and Cathline were still chatting away about the flowers in the pots. Jessie grabbed hold for Forya's leg arm and tugged, nearly yanking the short vixen off her feet.

"Come on! We must not waste time!" Jessie told them.

"Ow. Easy, Jessie! We're coming." yiped Forya, getting her balance back.

Jessie hopped on, this time with Forya and Cathline in tow. The vixen and elf were still chatting about the flowers and decorations for Cathline's apartment. Near the back of the greenhouse Jessie stopped and pointed.

"There it is." the kangaroo said excitedly.

Forya and Cathline gathered alongside Jessie and looked to where she was pointing. Their eyes immediately widened in surprise. Rising up from a bed of tulips was an enormous flower the size of a tractor wheel, attaching to a stalk that resembled a big green pipe. The petals of the flower were a bright purple color that seemed to glisten in the sunlight. Coming up alongside the flower were two smaller, shorter talks that ended in bulbs. The bulbs were about the size of bicycle wheels and were green in color with a purplish hue. Forya and Cathline stood there for a minute, mesmerized by the big flower and its beautiful colors.

"How beautiful! Why didn't you tell me you had such a flower, Forya?" Cathline finally said.

"I did not even know that we had this flower. It was not here yesterday." the vixen replied, shaking her head while still looking at the plant.

"How about you smell the fragrance of this flower?" suggested Jessie.

Cathline was the first to accept the offer, shrugging her shoulders.

"Why not?" the elf said as she approached the flower.

Cathline walked to the edge of the flower bed and leaned forward, sniffing at the big bloom. As she did this, Jessie hopped behind Forya, who was still looking the entire plant up and down. The kangaroo looked up at the plant, smiling.

"More sources of food for the plant," Jessie said to no one in particular.

Forya immediately turned to Jessie, very surprised by what the kangaroo had just said.

"Sources of food? What are you talking about?"

A groan from Cathline made Forya turn around again. To her astonishment the plant had become animated, the flower swaying left and right. Cathline was also swaying left and right, her arms hanging limp and her body leaning forward. Forya was about to ask what was wrong, but then she saw that two vines had come out of the ground and were sliding up and around Cathline's legs like a pair of snakes. Warning signals went off inside the vixen's mind that this plant might actually be dangerous. She reached out and grabbed Cathline's arm to try and pull the elf away. In the process, Cathline seemed to have snapped out of it, but she also fell onto her back thanks to the vines now holding her feet. Forya fell her back as well, grunting.

Cathline was still trying to clear her head when two vines came out of the ground and grabbed hold of her wrists. The elf gasped as the plant dragged her closer the flower again. Forya quickly got up and was about to make a grab for Cathline again. Suddenly two strong arms wrapped around her and pulled her away. Forya saw that Jessie has knelt down and was hugging her, though it was a captive hug that an affectionate one.

"Let it have its nourishment." cooed Jessie.

Forya could not believe her ears. Jessie was preventing her from rescuing Cathline from being, what she assumed there and then, from being eaten by the plant. The small vixen tried to squirm and kick herself free, but the female kangaroo was holding on tightly to her.

She was about to bite Jessie's arm, when Cathline screamed. Forya saw the elf was lifted up into the air, held close to the plant. Even more vines were coming out of the ground and were sliding in under Cathline's business outfit. Forya could see their forms moving underneath Cathline's clothes, the elf unable to stop herself from giggling due to the ticklish sensation. Then the vines tugged, hard. The fabrics of her skirt, jacket and blouse started to tear at the seams and where the vines were pulling. Cathline stopping giggling and flailed about, horrified at what the plant was doing.

"Dammit, no! This is my only business outfit I have!" screamed the elf as tatters of her torn fell off until she was left with only some fine lace bra and panties and her heels.

The plant paid no heed to Cathline and the vines proceeded to wiggle under the straps that held her underwear together while also working on sliding off the heels. Cathline struggled to move her hands to prevent the plant from tearing them off too, but to no avail. Helplessly she saw and felt the vines tug her underwear, snapping the straps and causing her bra and panties to drop to the ground. Her heels landed on the torn pile of clothing seconds later. Forya blushed furiously, seeing the poor elf's naked body being held by the vines like in some kind of bondage porn website picture.

Cathline was only too acutely aware of her nudity and her cheeks were blushed with a rosy red colour. The vines that had so rudely undressed her slid against her body, running their rough fibers over her nude skin, heading right for her melon-sized breasts and the area between her legs. The other vines that held her lifted her arms while spreading her legs, giving the other two females a rather clear view of the two entrances down below. What was this plant doing to her? thought Forya, still blushing and watching with horrid fascination. Cathline turned her head to shout for help from Jessie and Forya, but her shout became a loud gasp when the first vine slid between the soft and fleshy butt cheeks, then immediately pressed into her anus. The vine squirmed into the elf's backdoor, bringing to Forya's mind images of an earthworm burrowing into the moist ground. Cathline gasped again when a second vine came down her stomach to plunge itself into her pussy like the one in her ass. The two remaining vines encircled Cathline's breasts and squeezed tightly, making the elf's generous mounds stand out like two aggressive torpedo tips.

Forya could not believe what she was seeing as the vines in Cathline's body began to pull out, then thrust back in. The vixen had in all her years never, ever heard of such a plant before. It could not have existed or, if it did, would have been discovered decades ago. Yet here it was, raping one of her customers in her greenhouse. She tried to look away, but found she could not tear her eyes off the spectacle before her. All the while Jessie was also watching, but with a kind of pleased, smug look on her face.

Cathline screamed from the sensations inside her body as the vines worked into her holes, her body thrashing and writhing in the grip of the other vines. At that point another vine appeared, but this one was different. It did not come from the ground, but instead came out of the centre of the flower. And unlike the others, which had blunt tips, this one had a bud on its tip. It went over to Cathline, hovering in front of the elf's face. When Cathline screamed again, the bud shot open and wrapped itself over her face, it's petals more like strong fingers that wrapped around her face and squeezed her cheeks, making Cathline give off a loud "MMMMPH!" sound.

From that point Cathline's struggles became less and less violent. Also, her holes were beginning to drip some kind of green fluid, a puddle forming below her. Forya could only conclude that it was the plant that filling the elf with those juices. A few moments later Cathline shuddered violently, her body twitching and writhing while her head jerked about. She must have come to orgasm, thought Forya. The elf's pleasure spike lasted a few seconds before her entire body went semi-limp in the embrace of the vines.

When it felt the elf go weak, the plant acted. The vines holding Cathline folded her arms alongside her body and her legs together. Forya then saw the flower's centre open up. She could see a kind of tunnel inside the plant and realized that she was looking into the flower's stalk. It also hit her that Cathline was about to get swallowed up! She started to struggle anew, trying to break free of Jessie's grip. But the kangaroo held the diminutive vixen firmly.

"Let me go! We've got to save her!" shouted Forya while struggling to break free.

"She is in no danger. She is simply going to become food." replied Jessie calmly.

Forya could not believe her ears. She looked up at Jessie, growling at her. "That's the point! This plant will eat her and digest her, you fool!"

A sucking noise from the plant drew Forya's attention. When she looked, she saw that the flower's petals had closed over Cathline, leaving her body below the navel dangling outside. But that quickly changed as Cathline's body was pulled into the flower, the petals gliding over her nude skin. Just below the flower's bud Forya could see the outline of Cathline's head and shoulders forming inside the stalk. She kept watching while trying to (unsuccessfully) escape Jessie's grip. When the tips of the petals started to touch the top of Cathline's buttocks, the vines in her holes wiggled out with a soft pop, a good amount of the juice leaking out of the elf's body. Then the vines released the elf's legs. The plant lifted the flower to the sky until Cathline was almost vertical. With a long, slurping noise Cathline's rear, legs and finally feet disappeared into the maw. Forya lowered her eyes to where Cathline's entire body was visibly bulging out the plant's shoot. The fibers began to flex and loosen, causing the elf to slide down until her body disappeared beneath the earth.

Forya kept staring as the flower resumed the pose it had when they first saw it. The vixen started to sob, then suddenly she was lifted off the ground by Jessie. The kangaroo slowly hopped towards the plant.

"Jessie! What are you doing!" shouted Forya while trying to pull her arms free.

"It is your turn now, Forya. It must keep feeding." was the calm reply from Jessie.

Forya's face was filled with stark terror now. The plant had just yiffed and eaten Cathline, and worse she was going to be its next victim. And worst of all Jessie, whom she had once thought to be a friend, was party to this whole business and now going to feed her to this carnivorous plant! The vixen felt betrayed, which only made her feel even worse about her predicament.

As Jessie brought Forya closer to the plant, the more animated became the vines coming out of the ground. The kangaroo stopped a few feet from the plant, then released Forya and shoved her roughly towards the plant. Nearly lost her balance, but managed to keep herself upright. However, that brief moment she spent trying to get her balance was enough for the plant. The vines took hold around her arms and legs and easily hoisted the vixen into the air. Forya tried to jerk free, but she found the vines' grip on her was even stronger than that of Jessie. Not only that, she had tired herself out somewhat from trying to get loose of Jessie.

Forya looked at the flower. The "mouth" has closed up, though the vine with bulb was still outside. Then something began to happen. The flower started swaying left and right, the colors of the petals seeming to swirl and change before Forya's eyes. She tried to resist, but soon found her head following the movements of the flower, as if she hypnotized by the plant. Her mind was telling her to look away, but the flower was seemingly telling her to give in. Finally the vixen found the willpower to look away, eyes closed tightly. She was becoming aware of her surroundings again. It also felt as if she had lost something, and why was she feeling a little cooler too? She looked at herself and gasped. She was already nude, her torn overalls, clothes and underwear lying in tatters on Cathline's. The plant must have undressed her while she was still being hypnotized.

Whimpering and shivering, Forya watched the vines that took off her clothing approach her, rubbing against her fur as they head for her privates. Their skins were slightly rough as they slithered towards their goals. Forya started to breathe more quickly, her white-furred breasts rising and falling like two bobbing buoys. She clenched her teeth, trying not to giggle from the tickling feeling of the vines against her naked frame. Abruptly she felt one of the vines reach and penetrate her vagina, it's thick and scratchy length wiggling into her. She yipped as she felt a wave of forced pleasure hit her. In her love tunnel the vine moved in such a manner that it teased and hit every one of her sensitive spots. Then another vine slid over her rump and between her soft backside, wanting entrance to her rear. Forya tried to keep her anus clenched closed, but the vine pushed and pressed against that hole until Forya was finally forced to let it go into her, letting it dig into her ass.

Forya could not no longer resist a lot. The pleasure and even slight pain she got was rocking her body. It did not help when the vines curled around the orbs on her chest and began to rhythmically squeeze her softness. She screamed and yipped out loudly, her orgasm rapidly building within her. She hoped that her screams would at least be heard by somebody outside the greenhouse, even if she was in such a compromising position. But the plant silenced Forya when the vine with bud opened and latched over her mouth, squeezing her muzzle and cheeks. A thick ball-life protrusion swelled in between the vixen's teeth, keeping her jaw wide open. Her nostrils caught the scent of something being pumped into her nose along with oxygen. Whatever it was, it made her feel light-headed and weak in her limbs.

Forya was feeling over stimulated and a big orgasm was about to explore inside her, but wouldn't let it. She could let herself give in to the plant, she had to find a way to escape. That's when the two yiffing vines in her holes and the bud in her muzzle began to secrete this warm, sticky fluid. It shot of each ending, filling her orifices to the point of bursting. Her ass and pussy dripped onto the torn clothing below, while the vixen had no choice but to swallow the fluid in her mouth. It tasted sweet, like honey or nectar, and was almost enjoyable. At that moment she lost control.

The vixen started to cum, her eyes closed tightly as her body shuddered violently from the release of the pleasure bomb inside her. Her teeth bit down on the bud inside her muzzle, but surprisingly it was very strong, much stronger than had been expected. Her other holes squeezed in reflect, causing gushers of plant juice to spew out from the pressure. Forya's tail wagged happily despite herself. Behind her Jessie kept watching, a satisfied look on her face.

When she had come down from the sexual high, Forya's cleared a little bit. Her muscles were simply too tired to go tense, much less more around, and her entirely body felt like jelly. To her relief the vines around her breasts and inside her very sensitive tunnels retreated. Her lower holes leaked plant juices like broken pipes as the vines came out of her. Once out, the vines still holding her folded her into the same position as had been Cathline and pointed her head-first towards the flower.

Forya opened her eyes and saw she was being pulled towards the open maw of the flower. She wanted to whimper; she wanted to cry and scream for help. But the combined effect of the toxins, her futile struggles and her massive orgasm had pretty much worn her out so much that all she could do was watch her approaching doom. As her head entered the stem, the flower petals closed over her small size, leaving only her feet outside. Her last thought was of that bitch Jessie, who was probably watching her with satisfaction. She hoped that she would rot in hell for what she had done to her and Cathline. Then the vixen finally passed out.

Outside, Jessie watched the flower lift its head again and swallow Forya. The vixen's small size made it much easier for the plant to quickly take her down the shoot beneath the earth. As the plant began to lower the flower, Jessie hoped closer while beginning to undo the straps of her overalls.


Landing roughly on her fanny Forya yelped into consciousness. Her mind was still feeling drugged from the plant's toxins, but she could feel it clearing and her strength returning. She groaned a bit, leaning back against... something rubbery. The vixen opened her eyes and looked around.

Forya was in a sealed hole with transparent walls that appeared thin but were strong, like a kind of plastic sack. But it was the sight beyond those walls that made her gaze about in terror. Peering into other holes like her own, Forya saw within them were naked females bound in vines about the wrists from above and ankles from below. Tentacle-like vines were up their private areas and were obviously violating the females, forcing climax after climax out of their bodies. With each wave of sexual activity in them, their bodies writhed and twitched. The pits themselves seemed to pulse with every action of the unfortunate females. Vines with suction cups sat snugly on their breasts, sucking away and tantalizing them into a frenzy. Similar vines were secured over their muzzles and noses, possibly allowing them nourishment and air. And there they floating in a thick fluid, held completely vertical by the ropelike vines. All she could hear were moans and "mph's" from the other females.

She then saw Cathline in a cavity next to hers, already in the same situation like the others. The elf was just groaning and moving her body rhythmically as the plant yiffed her. Forya quickly got up and pounded on the wall separating her prison from Cathline's. She called out to the elf, but all response she got was when Cathline's body stiffened in yet another orgasm. Forya stared at her for a minute, then looked around at the others. She noticed two rabbit girls in cavities next to each other and then realized that they were the ones reported missing in the newspaper.

"This plant... this is what's been kidnapping all the females in the newspaper... for it's nourishment..." Forya said to herself, knowing now that she was going to join them soon as well.

A grunt from an empty cavity next to her own made Forya quickly turn her head. Jessie was sitting on the bottom of the slick cell, stripped completely naked to show her well-built body to the vixen. Angry, Forya went to the wall between their cells and banged on it. Jessie looked up, smiling at Forya. Forya, however, only returned the smile with a growl.

"How dare you! We were friends and I trusted you!" the little vixen snarled at the kangaroo.

Jessie kept smiling back as she got up, facing towards Forya with no apparent embarrassment over her nudity or even her surroundings. The kangaroo opened her mouth to speak, but then she groaned, eyes rolling into the back of her head. The next moment, she toppled onto her stomach like a felled tree. Then Forya saw something that shocked her once again.

Nestled in the small of Jessie's back was a creature that resembled a kind of beetle. It had a body that was covered in leaves, though the leaves were hardened to the point of being a kind of chitin-like hide. Its underbelly resembled the skin of the plant and it had the same colors. Six short vines with suction-like tips protruded from its sides, acting like legs and keeping it attached to the kangaroo. A smaller, much thinner vines came out of its front and went up to Jessie's neck, its end disappearing into her fur. Two small purple globes on the front were apparently its eyes. Forya watched transfixed as the plant beetle began to detach from Jessie. The suction tips let go and the thin probe vine pulled free of Jessie's neck. Then it got up and scurried off the kangaroo, climbing up the walls of the cavity towards the sealed top. A small slit opened up, just big enough for the creature to squeeze through. Then it sealed up, leaving no trace.

At that moment Forya's attitude changed completely. That creature had obviously mind-controlled her friend and had forced the kangaroo to feed Cathline, Forya and finally herself to the plant. The vixen then immediately regretted all the bad things she had said about Jessie. None of this was her fault. She put her paws on the wall and called out to Jessie. The female roo stirred and groaned, slowly recovering and getting herself on her arms.

"Jessie? Jessie? Are you okay? It's me, Forya." the vixen called out to her assistant.

"Oohhh... what... what happened?... Forya, what...." Jessie started to say as she began to sit up.

Jessie then immediately became fully alert when she saw where she was. Startled, she quickly got back onto her feet and looked around in alarm. "What the hell is this place?" she said. When she noticed that she was naked, the kangaroo sat down again, crossing her legs and folding her arms over her generous globes to try and cover herself. She looked at Forya, her eyes in a panic.

"Forya! Where are we? What is this place? How did we get here?" Jessie called out.

"Don't you remember what happened?"

"All I remember was filling the pitchers up with water in the greenhouse just a few seconds ago."

Forya realized that her poor friend could not remember anything of what had happened between then and now. Whether it was because the memories were that of the creature or because it had induced some form of amnesia to the kangaroo's mind, Forya could not say. But for now she was glad that it was still her friend as she remembered her.

"This plant captured us, Jessie. Remember the story in the paper about those missing females? This plant captured them and the others to act as food of some kind. It doesn't seem to want to harm us." Forya tried to reassure and explain to Jessie.

Jessie, however, was staring with her mouth open, looking at Cathline and the others trapped inside here with them. She started to sob. "Oh, no. I don't want to end like this. I want out. I want my Wally with me." she sniffed, trying hard not to lose it completely.

Forya whispered to her friend, trying to calm her down. Then her feet felt wetness. She looked down and saw to her shock that her cell was filling up with the same liquid that were in the other cavities. Jessie also saw this and immediately went over to put her paws by Forya's own. Forya looked back at her friend, trying to find some way of comforting her, but now all she could do was await her fate. She only wished that Jessie could not see what was going to happen, or even experience it as well.

Jessie gasped and her eyes went wide as several vines from the top and bottom of Forya's hole appeared and darted straight for the vixen...


Back at the flower shop a short while later, the bell rang as another individual came in. Wally the male kangaroo, wearing some blue overalls over his own clothes, had come to make a quick visit to his wife during his morning break. He looked around the shop, seeing nobody around.

"Jessie? Forya? Where are you, mates?" Wally called out in his thick Australian accent.

He thought of going to check the greenhouse when he spotted the newspaper. Being very interested in news of all kinds, he hopped over to the counter and folded open the newspaper to read it. He came to the article about the missing furries. He called out again as he kept his eyes on that story.

"Oiy, Jessie! You see this story about the missing ladies? Better watch out that you don't get kidnapped too, eh?"
