Little Pinocchio was being as quiet as possible as to not alert anything he shouldn't, because a mysterious cowboy told him that there was a monster on the loose, and she would kill and eat anything she saw as a threat to her. Her name was Casey, and she was very short tempered, and the slightest thing could tick her off... Unfortunately for Pinocchio he was about to see her on one of her worst days and usually she wouldn't just attack anything until she knows what it is first, but she was about to met a bite sized Pinocchio... and she was hungry...

"Brrr... Why is this place so cold?..." Pinocchio shivered as he put his hands on his arms to try to keep himself warm, but it wasn't working that well for him...Then he heard someone, a female voice. That made Pinocchio perk up a small bit, as then he could ask them how to get out of there. Then a strange man went around the corner and he was screaming, then, the female voice was heard again, but this time she sounded upset. "GET BACK HERE, JONES!!!" said the female voice, then a huge, fluffy monster went around the corner and pinned the guy down and snapped at him as he cried out in pain as she began to tear at him violently.

"HEY!! HEY KID!! COULD YOU HELP ME OUT HERE?!" Jones barked at Pinocchio as Casey stopped for a moment to look at him, and she was surprised to see a child a few feet away from them and her stomach let out a loud gurgle, and she licked her bloody teeth as she turned her attention to Pinocchio, whom was shaking like a little wooden leaf a few feet away...

Then, Casey went down and swallowed the mysterious man whole and alive, and then she slowly approached Pinocchio and growled at him as he backed away from her as she came closer to him. "And who are you?" Casey said growling lowly at him as he was now backed against the wall as she loomed over him, smiling hungerly at him.

"P-Pinocchio..." Pinocchio said while trying not to break down in tears as he knew what was going to happen to him... "W-What's your name, miss?" Pinocchio stuttered as he felt his face get cold.. "My name is Casey...nice to meet you little one..~" Casey said as she was almost done digesting Jones, and she leaned down and smelled Pinocchio to get his scent, and she loved the smell of caramel apples coming off of him and she licked her lips because she was still hungry for a snack.

Casey chuckled as her belly gurgled again and she smiled hungerly at little Pinocchio and she growled at him hungerly... "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't swallow you whole as well?... Are you with Jones?" She said while pointing to her stomach.

"Well... I don't know who that man was... so, I have no idea on who he was..." Pinocchio sighed as she came a little closer to him, "Oh... if you are not with Jones... then what are you doing here?..." Casey growled at him as she wrapped her tail around him, bringing him closer to her stomach, "W-Well... I was just lost and I heard your voice and I thought I could ask you how to get out of here..." Pinocchio said while looking up at her as her stomach growled again.

"You're lost?... Oh dear... I'm sorry that I scared you, Pinocchio... I'm not used to people like yourself.. and I'm not myself when I'm hungry... and I still am...~" Casey said while patting her stomach as Pinocchio sighed inturnally to himself as she wouldn't let him go...

"Are you gonna eat me, Miss Casey?..." Pinocchio said sadly as he looked at her in despair.

"I'm sorry, little one... but I have to...I have to eat you...I haven't eaten in years and Jones wasn't enough...So I guess i could have you for dessert.. Since you look, sound, and smell so sweet..~ " Casey said while leaning down over Pinocchio and getting down to his level of eyesight, and she opened her huge mouth and brought Pinocchio closer to it using her tongue, making him wince in fear.

"Don't worry... I wont digest you, Pinocchio... and you said that you were cold so ill keep you safe and warm... would you like that?" Casey asked, as she brushed some hair out of his face.

Pinocchio nodded his head as she opened her mouth as she smiled, Pinocchio then rested his head on her huge dark red tongue and she let his shoulders in as well before she carefully slid her tongue underneath his belly so he wouldn't get stabbed by her teeth, she then gently held his wooden ankles gently with her paws, and she felt him slide down her throat.

Pinocchio closed his eyes thinking he would wake up from a dream, but he knew better...

Casey then swallowed his shoes and sighed as she rubbed her stomach in satisfaction, and then she walked back to a comfy place for her to settle down with Pinocchio in her belly. She put her head on her stomach and listened to Pinocchio's heartbeat inside of hers, and then she yawned wide, and laid down on her back as she rubbed her stomach with light purrs.. and she swore she'd protect her new friend, Pinocchio after that, because she also smelled Timber on his clothes, so she knew Pinocchio and Timber knew each other very well. So Casey fell asleep with a full belly and a new friend...
