This idea comes from aceman88
The Ridonculous Race had taken its competing teams to Las Vegas, where they had one of two choices to make. One of those choices involved one person on each team going through a course in dune buggies to collect 3 flags, while the other controlled them via a remote control from the watchtower. The other option was that they could perform a classic Las Vegas magic trick, in making a lion disappear. Regarding the latter, the Best Friends team were just about to take their turn.
Carrie was feeling some real frustration building up inside of her right now. Devin had assumed that they should go with Dune Buggies, because according to him, they "sounded tough", but then said that magic "sounded easy, therefore being super hard". But much more frustrating for her than his thought process, was his assumption that his word was what they should go through with.
"He's got some nerve sometimes. I swear, sometimes I wonder why I've even bothered trying to win him over all these years." She muttered to herself as she slipped into the purple assistant's dress. She was never one to pull out the stops to impress, yet she couldn't help but take a moment to admire herself in the mirror. She thought this dress looked nice, and it fitted her perfectly, leaving her long, lovely legs exposed.
She climbed into her side of the cage, and could see the lion bashing his head against the wall, seemingly trying to get out of his side and over to the blonde's side. She backed away as much as she could, feeling frightened by how scary he looked up close, but she braced herself regardless. The curtain came down and covered the cage, and Devin began to slowly position the lever needed to drop the divider and the lion offstage.
But somehow, he messed it up, and sent not only them down off the stage, but his partner as well, as evidenced by her scream. "Carrie?! Carrie, what happened?! Aw man, what did I do?! What did I do wrong?!" He asked panicked as he tried fiddling with it again to try and undo his mistake, but he wasn't having any success.
Down in the hole, Carrie was just beginning to sit up now, as she rubbed her head to relieve the throbbing pain that had started forming there. "Oww...geez, that smarts. Maybe we WOULD have been better off with the dune buggies, after all." She muttered painfully, before she heard low growls. Her eyes widened at the sight of not just one, but multiple lions gathered all around her. The main lion that was used for their trick began to slowly slink towards her, and she could do nothing but back away slowly and carefully. "Uh, hehe, nice lions, let's not do anything nasty..." She chuckled nervously as she suddenly screamed in terror. "DEVIN! SOMEBODY! ANYBODY, HELP ME!"
But no help came at the sound of her cries, as the lion just kept slowly walking towards her until he suddenly pounced and leaped on top of her. As they were now face-to-face, she stared into his terrifying eyes, and turned away, whimpering that this was the end. However, while she was expecting to be attacked, she wasn't expecting the kind of attack that actually followed. As she turned back around, she saw that the lion, instead of mauling her brutally, was instead just giving her big, sloppy, slow licks on the face, almost like he was testing out her taste.
Needless to say, even if she didn't see it coming, she was still absolutely terrified. "Eeeeek! No, don't do that!" She squeaked in a frightened tone as she tried to reach up, and push him away, but he quickly placed his paws on her arms to keep them pinned. She turned and saw that her legs had gotten the attention of the other lions Two of them slowly slinked over to them, and grabbed her shoes in their mouth by the toes, as they pulled them off, and tossed them aside tossing them aside.
Carrie's bare feet looked to be absolutely stunning, and they really complimented her legs rather well. The lions took notice of this, and seemed to be licking their lips in interest and hunger. Carrie realized what was happening and was about to protest, but she figured it wouldn't do her any good to try and say no to a pack of lions, so she just decided to go through with this. But she knew it would be difficult.
Two of the lions leaned in and began to slowly lick along her legs, starting from the thighs to the knees, while the other two began to slowly lick her feet, starting at her ankles. Immediately, she was already in a giggly fit right now. "Hahahahahahahahahaha, nohohohoho dohohohohohon't! I'm tihihihihihihihihicklish! Stohohohohop it, stohohohohop it!" She giggled as she watched them continue onwards. Their big, wet, scratchy tongues were going to be an absolute nightmare to bear for who knows how long.
The lions at Carrie's legs licked her calves repeatedly, whereas the ones at her feet slowly made their way up from her heels to her soles. "Pfff-Heeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee! Nohohohohohohoho, gehehehehehehet awahahahahay! Truhuhuhuhust mehehehehehehe! I tahahahahahaste awfuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhul!" She stated between laughs as she began to kick her legs at the tickly feeling, until the lions brought their paws up and used them to gently pin her legs down to the ground, to keep her kicking or trying to pull away. And they didn't seem to buy her 'not tasty' schpiel, since they had been licking for a while now, and had no plans on stopping anytime soon.
A couple minutes later on, and the lions were still busily licking away at Carrie's legs and feet. They went onward and put their focus on what they would soon discover to be her weak spots. The ones doing the leg work slowly dragged their tongues on her shins, while the pair licking at her feet made their way up to her toes and licked them as they curled and wiggled. This was enough to push this process over the edge for Carrie. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEE! OH GEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEHEEZ, JUHUHUHUHUST PLEHEHEHEHEHEASE STOHOHOHOHOP! I THIHIHIHIHIHINK YOHOHOHOHOHOU'VE AHAHAHALL HAHAHAHAHAD YOHOHOHOHOHOUR FIHIHIHIHIHIHIHIHILL!" She cackled like a hyena as they continued.
The ones licking her toes tried to get between them, as well, but their tongues were a bit too big for them to fit in there, so they settled for just licking under them, as well as one-by-one. Carrie shook her head back and forth as she tried to keep it together, but found it nigh impossible to do, tears trickling heavily down her cheeks. She needed to find a way to get out of this mess. "ALRIHIHIHIHIGHT, THAHAHAHAHAT'S ENOHOHOHOHOHOHOUGH NOHOHOHOHOHOW! LEHEHEHEHEHET MEHEHEHEHE GOHOHOHOHO!" She told her tormentors with a hoarse voice from laughing so much. But if they hadn't stopped before, why did she think they would stop now?
She looked around and tried to find something to fend them off. Luckily for her, she was struck with inspiration, as she grabbed the tail of one of the lions, and yanked hard on it. He let out a roar of pain that was so loud, it startled the others and got them to stop long enough for her to crawl away as she gasped for air. She grabbed a nearby chair, and was ready to defend herself with it. "Alright, back! Back, I say!" She declared before she took a long rope and thrust it at them like a whip. "I'm not letting myself become a feast tonight!"
All the negative vibes she had been feeling from today seemed to have some kind of effect on her. Devin's ignorance, his insistence, this whole lion debacle she had gotten herself into, it just seemed to give her the right kind of confidence to stand up for herself. She glared at them, they glared at her, and circled around her, and it looked to be a standoff between them. Carrie knew she had to find a way out of there, and fast.
Suddenly, she could hear Devin's voice calling out to her. "Carrie?! Carrie, can you hear me?!" He called out as he looked down through the hole, and grew panicked at what he saw. "Devin, quick! Catch this!" She told him as she took her rope, fashioned it into a lasso, and swirled it around before throwing it up, and allowing Devin to grab hold of it. "Alright, I've got it! Now I can pull you up out of there!"
And as he pulled, he lifted his partner up out of that hole, and away from the lions. Once she was completely out of there, Devin threw his arms around her in a warm hug, so relieved that she came out of that alright. She blushed heavily for a moment before returning the gesture. "Oh Carrie, I…I was so worried! I thought I'd never see you again…" His voice was speaking in a shaky, and hushed tone. The thought of losing her like that terrified him to the core.
Hearing how panicked he was for her touched her heart as she smiled. "Oh Devin, it's okay now. I'm safe, you don't have to worry anymore." She told him soothingly before they pulled apart from each other. They both looked down at her legs and feet, and saw how red and wet they had gotten from all that licking. "Ewwww, gross!" She groaned in disgust. Devin scooped her up and carried her in his arms, before taking her to the changing room.
Once there, he found a towel and gave it to her. She took it gratefully and used it to dry off her legs and feet, before putting it away. Her eyes suddenly went wide as she realized something. "Oh no, my shoes! I forgot them, and now they're still down in that hole!" She cried out in disappointment until Devin went and found her a new pair to replace her old pair.
"Thanks Devin, being trapped down there with those lions was terrifying! I certainly hope I don't have to go through anything like that ever again. Now come on, we need to try and find the Chill Zone while we still have time!" With that, they both changed back into their proper attire, and bolted out of the dressing room to try and track down the Chill Zone. After the traumatizing experience she had been through today, she very much COULD use a place to chill and calm down.
Alright then, another idea that involves animal licking, another idea that I had a lot of fun with writing. Regarding my thoughts about the Best Friends, I do like them both, Carrie more than Devin, but just not to the same extent of other characters, on account of how admittedly dragged out their storyline had proven to be.
