The ruthless Mister Sikes has found a way of dealing with any bratty upstarts who try to play the hero...
Lilo For Lunch by senshi05
Mister Sikes took a deep puff of his finest cigar while reclining in his chair and let out a big plump of smoke. A big guy like him needed a little R and R to lead his little enterprise properly. A little entertainment wouldn't hurt either. "Send 'er in," the large man ordered upon pressing the button on his intercom. A soft hiss sounded throughout his dark room much to his amusement. "Easy there now, big boy," he soothed his pet quickly. "I promised a dinner and a show... didn't I?"
A suit strolled in through the door carrying a young girl with tan skin and her limbs flailing all about. "Lemme go, you big bully," she demanded of the hired goon, trying to get a good right hook on the guy. The kid had the kind of youthful scowl that Mister Sikes couldn't help but feel immediately endeared by. "I'll take it from here," the big man declared with a growing smirk, shooing the goon away with his hand. The mook dropped the girl on the floor like a dirty diaper and left.
"Ow!" Lilo cried upon hitting the floor bottom first. The Hawaiian girl glared back at the goon as he closed the door behind him. "Come back and fight like a man!" she demanded while standing back up and waving her fist angrily. Lilo winced from her bruised buttocks and rubbed the bottom of her summer shorts. A crude chuckle imbued her heart with a slight sense of dread as she remembered that she wasn't all alone. "Real nice of you to drop by, kid," the voice sneered.
Lilo swallowed hard and put on a brave enough face before turning around a full one-eighty. The room one had a single light bulb swaying from a wire up above and cast a shadow everywhere just to up the creep factor. A mere few feet from her was a smartly dressed middle aged man with the most vile expression all across his smug mug. The little girl felt him loom over her even when he took out his cigar to drop some ashes into the pan. She was in some real deep trouble.
"Apparently you witnessed one of my employee's... business transaction," Mister Sikes began, taking a casual puff. "Not only did you spy on us but even took it upon yourself to cut in and punch one of them in the, erm, netherregions." He couldn't help but be endeared by the adorable attempt at a glare Lilo was giving him. "Now why would you go and do that now?" Plucky little girls like her were a dime a dozen all over the world. Always believing they can take down the man.
Always being proved wrong. Dead wrong.
"My sister always told me to say no to drugs," Lilo retorted after mustering up all her courage, her heart beating rapidly in fear. "I couldn't just stand by and let you bad guys sell it to people." Her voice wasn't as strong as he wanted it to be but for a six year old, it was all she had. "Ain't you a regular Nancy Drew," Mister Sikes snarky with all the sleaze expected from him before his gaze became far more grim. "Thanks to your little heroics, we lost out on a client big time."
Lilo's mind recalled many a mafia movies that she saw behind Nani's back. They always went easy on the kids. Didn't they? "Good," she declared, trying to be brave and bold. "Now let me go." She took one step back towards the door ever so slightly. "People will look for me and find you too." The more stern look on Mister Sikes's face made her heart sink further. "It's be real bad for business, you know?" The little girl kept telling herself that she couldn't let them get to her.
Mister Sikes pretended to make a conceding expression. "They're all free to look," he claimed before his face turned darkly devious once more, "but they'll never find a thing." He could see the color drain from her face in her growing dread, the icing on the proverbial cake. "A few contacts of mine in India has this method of... eliminating certain undesirables with little to no 'accidents' to be arranged." The malicious man snapped his fingers swiftly. "I thought I'd test it out myself."
A sharp hiss caused Lilo's heart to sink even further before a long and thick python slithered out from behind Mister Sikes's desk. At first, it was shrouded in the shadows with only two eyes that glowed in the darkness. Sure enough, it revealed itself out in the light with its green scales sparkling somewhat splendidly. However, this beautiful skin was off-set by the unambiguously malicious expression spread across its face. It's tongue flicked with every hiss, tasting her scent.
Lilo could feel the scream stuck in her throat as the python actually smirk at her with his snout mere inches from her nose. She tried stepping back in hopes of bolting right out the door before her left flip-flop slipped down her sweaty sole. It was enough to make her trip with a yelp and send her back down on her butt, her footwear hitting the snake to its displeasure. The plucky girl groaned as she pushed herself up and briefly forget about the looming threat before her.
One look at the python's irate expression jogged Lilo's memory on how much deep doo-doo she was in. "The Burmese Python," Mister Sikes laughed with his most sadistic smile yet. "This is one of the smaller ones but let me tell you that dangerous doesn't begin to describe this bad boy." The serpent didn't give its prey another second before swiftly looping around her shoulders, fear keeping her frozen in place. "One big coil around your chubby caboose is all it takes..."
Lilo gritted her teeth to struggle against the two coils already around her shoulders and over her chest. The scale really dug into her as the python slowly slithered around her for the best grip possible. The squeeze was unbearably painful and making it hard to breath as it was. She flailed her legs about and wriggled her fingers by reflex, desperate to shake it off no matter what. However, the snake soon upped the ante by wrapping a third coil around her waist.
"Looks like I got my money's worth after all," Mister Sikes remarked, enjoying the sight of Lilo's wrists being pinned to her sides. "These monsters never just attack their prey, unfortunately for you." He flicked the last of his cigar ashes into the trash with a sadistic puff. "They're curious things who like to, say, test how much abuse they can truly dole out." A pained groan was finally pushed out of the little girl's mouth after holding out too long. "Can't say I don't relate."
"Lemme... go..." Lilo strained to let out in her wriggling. Her breathing became wheezing in seconds within the crushing coils while the python proceeded to wrap around her chubby thighs. Her upper legs were pinned together effortlessly with a tight grip before the python slithered another coil around her knees. Sure enough, her calves were bound within another loop before one more squeezed her ankles together. Only her bare feet could wriggle in the ironclad grip.
"Quite the little spit-fire, aren't you?" Mister Sikes laughed while getting up from his desk in the shadows. "Precocious tomboys like you are a delight, you know that?" He stepped into the light while looming over Lilo as she gritted her teeth and tried to endure the constriction. "Always trying to be like the big boys and be a real superheroine." The glare she shot back was priceless enough all as the python squeezed her once more. "But you're just another damsel in distress."
"You don't... really want... to kill me," Lilo managed to get out with a real strain after another constriction. "It'd be... wasteful." She vowed to never give Mister Sikes the pleasure of her true fear but still prayed that she could bluff her way out. "My sister is... loaded with... cash... and would do... anything... for me..." The python's pressure was unbearable but the little girl kept telling herself that she could make it out of this. "Put me up... for ransom... and you... get money."
Mister Sikes knelt down while pretending to ponder Lilo's offer. "Not bad of an offer, kid," he admitted falsely, enjoying the slight twinge of hope on her face. "I wouldn't mind a little pocket change myself." He glanced over to the python's sinister smirk and replied with one of his own, giving the signal with a wink. "Let's see what our friend thinks about it." Before the little girl could register it, the snake looped his head under her chin and created a strong coil around her throat.
"URK!" Lilo croaked out when the scaly coil gripped her neck. She could hardly breath before but the python's tightening a literal noose around her throat now made it nigh impossible. Her eyes widened by reflex while her mouth was left agape and emitting painful hacking noises. A violet hue appeared on her cheeks as the thick coil below puffed them up. Her fearless facade gave way to her terror as the serpent's choke hold sent a clear cut message: she was going to die.
"I'll take that as a, 'no' then," Mister Sikes sneered at his python before turning to Lilo. "Even if I got some cash out of your ransom, I'd still have a witness to my dealings who could go the fuzz.." The choked up look frozen on her face looked back at him as if to beg for mercy like the child she truly was. "Not a wise business move on my end, would it now?" He smirked back at her as he saw despairing realization forming in her shrunken pupils alone. "I didn't think so, girl."
Lilo croaked out a feeble cry of a wheeze when Mister Sikes stood back up to loom over her, smirking in triumph. "You know the best thing about pythons?" he asked, instilling another dosage of fear into his victim. "They never leave a trace of evidence." In the corner of her eye, she found the snake's slithering his head into her view before opening its mouth wide. It practically detached its jaw bones to reveal its deep gullet, a long dark tunnel with seemingly no end to it.
"Bon appetite," Mister Sikes declared as the python dived his head down onto Lilo's. Its maw fully engulfed her head within second much to his genuine amazement before its coils visibly loosened up. He whistled in his noose around her neck unraveled so the snake could swallow up to her shoulders and down to her chubby tummy. The serpent rotated his meal onto her front to help undo the bindings around her waist and legs before the beast made it to her bottom.
"Dumping a body is just asking for trouble," Mister Sikes casually commented, taking out another cigar. "Forensics now are too dead on with today's new fangled techo-junk." He grinned at Lilo's little legs attempted to flail ever so slowly as her entire butt was gulped down. "But once my new friend digests you, they'd never think of testing snake dung for your DNA." The idea of it all made him chuckle with triumph, especially seeing her thigh slide into the snake's jaws.
Lilo's wriggling feet were soon all that could be seen of her as the python made short work of her calves. "It is a darn shame," Mister Sikes admitted, not knowing nor caring if she was conscious anymore. "A gal like you would've been a real looker in ten years, give or take," he smirked, imagining the Hawaiian hottie that never was. "If only you weren't such a little goody two shoes." The snake finally swallowed both barefeet and made a big gulp. "Well, c'est La Vie."
The bulge that was once Lilo was slowly pulled down the esophagus towards the python's stomach while Mister Sikes turned away. He picked up the phone upon reaching his desk and dialed up a number he'd be meaning to call. After the ringtone lasted for what seemed like days, an Indian voice answered at last. "Ah, Ranjan," Mister Sikes jovially replied, "glad I could catch you." He took a final look at the wriggling bulge and grinned at the little girl's muffled cries for help.
"Let's talk business..."
Lilo learned a valuable lesson for the first and final time: don't ever go on vacation without Stitch.
If you felt gutted by sweet little Lilo becoming snake food, you're welcome. Glad this was as exploitative as intended. Feel free to give me hell.
