“You’re lying,” Sydney complained as she followed Andy.

“I’m not,” Andy shot back, “I really saw it. It’s like some kind of small cookie town or something out in the woods.” Sydney rolled her eyes at Andy as the rest of the small group followed him. Andy shot a look at Sydney and gave her some attitude, “If you don’t believe me, then why are you following?”

Sydeny opened her mouth to reply but found that the others with them saw Andy’s point. She did seem to be just tagging along only to complain the whole time. Sydney looked over to Jackie as she just shrugged and said, “He has a point…”

Andy grinned as he nudged Bryan and Wallis, “You guys believe me right?”

Wallis shrugged, “Not really, but didn’t have anything better to do today.” Wallis lifted his spiderman thermos to his lips and took a deep sip of some of his hot coco to help warm him in the cold snowy woods. “Playing with you guys would be more fun than staying home. I’m sure my mom would have had me clean the house with her or something boring.”

Andy looked hurt before he turned to Bryan who didn’t like to be put on the spot like this, “Don’t bring me into this. You begged me to come along last night.”

“I did not!” Andy complained. Bryan gave Andy an ‘are you serious right now’ look. Andy quickly added, “I just said I didn’t want to go alone.”

“Which is why we're here,” Brayn told Andy.

“Can we hurry up,” Jackie complained, pulling her ear muffs closer to her head and shivered. “It’s cold and if Andy is lying about this, which I’m sure he is, I want to get out of here that much sooner. So can you hurry it up, not all of us like to be out in the freezing snow like you do.”

Andy gave Jackie a scowl and huffed, “If no one believed me then why did you all agree to follow me.” Grumbling Andy marched ahead in the ankle deep snow as he retraced his steps from yesterday. The snow was barely even an issue for them as they headed deeper into the woods. Sometimes Andy didn’t know why he hung out with them, although they were all friends sometimes they got on Andy’s nerves. Like right now, when no one thought he was telling the truth about what he saw. Still he wanted everyone to see this small little village that he came across yesterday while exploring the woods. Luckily he remembered the path he took and followed it. He could just barely make out the small indents of his footprints the other day in the freshly fallen snow.

Finally Andy spotted the weird looking tree that he was going to inspect the other only to find out about that village.

Andy pointed to the tree, “It’s right over there,” Andy said, holding his finger to his lips to make sure everyone was silent. None of them seemed to take him seriously as they continued to follow Andy with the same kind of attitude and care as before.

Sydney even rolled her eyes and muttered, “Yeah right…”

Ignoring Sydney, Andy slowly got behind the large tree and peered out. Finally his friends followed and lined up next to him. As each one of them poked their head out to see what Andy was looking out, their reaction was priceless. They all gasped, as they looked upon the large small cookie looking village before them in the large clearing.

“Ohhh myyyy gosssssh,” Jackie whispered with wonder in her voice.

“No way,” Bryan remarked in disbelief.

“You were telling the truth,” Sydney sounded flabbergasted at that possibility.

“I told you,” Andy smirked with a snarky hint of delight at proving all of them wrong.

“So now what,” Wallis asked, pondering what was next.

All four of them took that very good question in, right before turning their eyes on Andy. Andy didn’t know it was gonna be all up to him. Looking back at the innocent looking village, Andy couldn’t help but grin with excitement and delight, “Well… we came all the way out here, might as well have some fun, right?” The smile soon spread like wildfire as the rest of his friends had the same goofy grin and playful looks in their eyes.

Shawn was shoveling the last of the snow from the walkway. Clearing up the path to his door wasn’t so bad as the snow hadn’t piled up too high, but it was still enough to warrant shoveling to walk down without worrying about tripping and falling. Finally tossing the last chunk of snow out of the way, Shawn looked up and saw a few of his neighbors doing the same. It was a nice morning as it wasn’t too cold, but just cold enough to keep the snow frosty. Smiling, Shawn waved to his neighbor across the street who repeated the gesture.

Shawn was gonna head to the roof of his house to shovel off the excess snow on top of it. As much as he liked the look of the white powder, he enjoyed the natural white frosting that coated his home more than the powdery snow. Grabbing a ladder he placed it on the side of his home and started to climb up the steps. Once on top, Shawn took his shovel and went to fling the snow off his roof. After a few minutes, Shawn was almost done with one side of his roof. Shawn went for the last little pile of snow when the whole town shook. Confused, Shawn looked at the pile of snow and slid off his roof without him touching it. Frowning Shawn looked around and saw a few other homes vibrating, loosing snow off the top without any interaction from anyone. The vibration increased as it seemed to get harsher every few moments that it repeated.

Thinking it might be an earthquake, Shawn started to head to his ladder. Just as he turned around he froze looking out over the protective wall around the village, Shawn watched with disbelief as five enormous figures started to approach the town and its barrier. Unable to move, Shawn could only look on as the five massive monsters approached the village. It wasn’t till they were so much closer did Shawn decide he might want to run or hide. Heading toward the ladder he had set to his roof, he aimed to climb down and head out toward the closest town exit. Just as Shawn reached the ladder he heard a loud grunt and huff. Looking up he watched with horror as the largest beast of the group before Shawn held a massive mountain sized ball of snow in his hands. With no warning the enormous ball of frost and snow was launched out of the boy's hands and sailed through the air.

Shawn watched as the glistening globe flew through the air and past his home and toward the back side of the village. It wasn’t till the last moment that Shawn witnessed the thousand ton orb of frozen snow and ice impact the village back gate, lodge itself on top of one of the only exits. Shawn felt a chilling shiver run up his spin as the back door was effectively sealed shut by hundreds if not thousands of tons of compacted snow. The enormous snowball landed perfectly in place of the rear gates. There was no way anyone could get through that, not anytime soon. It would take everyone in town hours to clear it out!

“NIIIIICE,” one of the male giants shouted, “Good aim Bryan!”

Shawn turned to the enormous creatures closing in on his home village, the larger boy of the group gave a weak shrug, “What were you expecting, I’m the pitcher for my baseball team….”

Shawn was horrified to his very core as he watched the five gigantic monsters approaching the village. With the only exit now being the front of the gates, if anyone wanted to escape they would have to leave from the very entrance the five giants were heading toward. Shawn stayed on the roof of his house as he had a slightly better view of these childish beings approaching with looks of joy and excitement. Something that would have been friendly, if their size and actions just now weren't so imposing.

He prayed they were just curious… however the sudden snowball attack caused him to doubt his hopes.

Shawn watched as one of the giant beings approached their walls. His legs were so tall that the walls didn’t offer much protection against him. The kid could easily step over the golden brown barrier that was used for security from the outside world. Shawn watched as the guards on the top of the wall hurried to close the doors before the five mountainous monsters arrived, even though it clearly wouldn’t stop them. It wasn’t like they were gonna try and crawl through that tiny portal Shawn called a gate.

Shawn was able to observe the enormous humans that stood before his peaceful town. Three males and two females. Shawn wasn’t sure what to expect as they stood towering well over their homes. Each of their fascinating faces slowly glanced around, watching and examining the village. Looking and exploring the sight before them. Shawn and so many others stood still as they looked back at the giant beings. It was so quiet, that it was like a stare down between all of them. Finally one of the giants moved.

It was a delighted laugh as the golden haired boy that seemed to be leading the others looked down at the large, but still small gates before him. “Is this supposed to keep us out?”

Shawn felt dread overcome him as he watched the child pull his right foot backwards and swung it forward with a massive mighty kick. The bared doors didn’t stand a chance as an explosive crackle filled the air and the front gates were obliterated from the colliding foot. Shawn watched as one second his fellow gingerbread brethren were manning the top of the wall and soon they and the rest of the front gate and walls were obliterated into dust. The force of the kick turned everything into a fine powdery dust as chunks of wall shatter and scatter across the village. Large blocks of material flew past Shawn with such force that several homes behind him shattered from the impact of the pieces of the gate and wall falling down on the citizens in the town. Shawn watched with horror as the one who kicked the gates down laughed with joy.

“OH WOW! Did you see them go flying?! That was freaking awsome!”

“Oh, me next me next,” one of the girls off to the side cheered. Shawn’s attention turned to watch the grinning giantess lift up one large pin snow boot and effortlessly press it down on a sturdy portion of the city walls. It crumbled and cracked like it was made of sand as it caved and broke apart. The large boot crushing and crunching the robust wall into a powder like material as she giggled at the sounds. “THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN!” She squealed in delight, clapping her mittens together with joy.

The giddy expression was mocking Shawn and his people as the children took in delight at the carnage they were causing. Still Shawn and most of the people inside the walls didn’t move or react. It wasn’t till the other three started to walk over the ineffective wall and into the town did all hell break loose. Screams filled the air as everyone panicked and started to run around to find a safe place. Shawn was still on his roof as he watched as the enormous beings entered the town and did what they pleased. One of the girls bent down and reached out toward a screaming pair. Her hand was already wrapping around them and in a tight clutch. Shawn felt sick as he watched her squeeze the life out of them as they snapped in two and crumbled out of her hand. Disgusted at the sight, he was sickened even more when the girl pouted and complained, “Awww they broke… that’s so lame.” A fine dusty powder and small chunks of what remained of those poor people rained down from those uncaring hands into the white snow below.

The sounds of shattering and breaking filled the village as each giant attacker went on a rampage of destruction. Enormous feet and hands rained down on the nearest homes as they smashed and trampled everything nearby. Screams and cries for mercy filled the air as the wreckage increased as the almost playful demeanor of these monsters went unchallenged. Loud laughter rang out as the demolishing and destructive sounds of carnage filled the air. Shawn could see those devilish monsters slowly pushing forward from the front gate and top part of the village, toward the rest of the village inwardly. People were running away toward the back entrance. They either didn’t know it was blocked, or was just trying to get as far away from the massacre going on. Shawn knew there wasn’t any escape that way, instead he might have better luck trying to climb the wall and finding somewhere to jump off to. Maybe he could get outside the walls unnoticed and hide.

Shawn wasted no time jumping down from his roof. He landed in the soft snow as friends and neighbors screamed past him in a frantic panic. It was an understandable reaction considering how much he wanted to scream and run. It wasn’t like Shawn wasn’t freaking out right now. However, seeing the devastation these omnipotent kids were doing, Shawn knew he didn’t have time to waste freaking out about something he couldn’t prevent. If he wanted to get out alive, he would need to stay as calm and smart as he could.

Running through the crowd of dozens of people, Shawn decided to head to the southwest part of the town. That would be the furthest away from the invaders and safest place from-

There was a sudden screaming coming from Shawn's side causing him to wince and stop to look in the direction of the shrilling sound. The woman was screaming her lungs out pointing up in the air. Shawn had enough time to turn around and see a large chunk of a roof, or maybe part of the wall flying through the air. He watched as the massive object came hurtling toward him. The object smashed into Shawn and a few others before everything went dark.

Shawn felt fuzzy as he heard muddled words and sounds around him. His body ached like it had shattered into a million pieces. His arms and legs were heavy like they were being pinned down by something heavy. Shawn slowly opened his eyes and looked around. There were broken body parts all around him. Legs and arms snapped off at the joints, the crusty crumbly remains of random people Shawn couldn’t recognize, littered around him. They were obliterated by whatever was tossed at them. Shawn groaned as he sat up and checked his own delicate body for any injury. Nothing seemed broken. There was a crack on his leg but it seemed to only be a factor, nothing serious. Shawn slowly got up and tested the limb, he winced but besides putting too much pressure on it, he would be fine.

It wasn’t till Shawn was done checking himself that he realized things were a lot worse than before he passed out. There was a lot less screaming and commotion. In fact it looked like most of the homes nearby were crushed or somewhat broken in some way. Enormous fist size or foot prints were etched into the lifeless homes. He could hear noises in the distance but the invaders were out of sight. Shawn didn’t know where their attackers were or how long he was out.

Shawn went over to the nearest person, or what was left of them, half their body was broken and left in crumbs. They were trying to push it back together or keep their lower body from falling apart, but it wasn’t happening.

“What happened,” Shawn asked the coughing and muttering man.

“I..I … oh god… I can’t feel my legs,” he complained as he no longer had any. “Are those my legs,” He asked in a worried voice pointing to two gingerbread legs laying off to the side. Sadly Shawn could tell those weren’t his, they were too feminine to be his. Meaning it belonged to some poor woman who also lost her limbs from the impact.

“Where are they,” Shawn asked the injured person.

“My legs…” he kept repeating. “I need my legs.”

Shawn shut his eyes as he knew this person was of no use. He was in shock, too unstable to get a clear answer from. Hating what he had to do, Shawn got up and started to leave the man. Creeping along the road, Shawn moved on hoping that he could find a way out of this town.

“MY LEGS I NEED MY LEGS,” The man cried out to Shawn as he left the injured person to his doom. If the Giants didn’t get to him, something else would. There was no more protection with their walls broken, Shawn couldn’t be weighted down by someone like him. Doing his best to ignore the wails of the leg less man, Shawn headed deeper into the village and hopefully to escape.

The village was in shambles as he didn’t come across one building that wasn’t broken or torn down. Some seemed to be flatten to the ground completely, others were missing massive chunks as if someone kicked or knocked off portions of the home or building. Shawn had crossed many pieces of broken and fallen people. He could only hope they passed from the collateral damage caused by these monsters and not from more personal attacks.

Shawn turned a corner and froze for a moment as he came up across one of the horrible beasts attacking his home. Quickly Shawn ducked back behind a crumbling wall as he watched the giantess squatting there with a small group of people between her legs. There couldn’t be more than four or five people trembling before her squatting thighs.

“Hmm,” She mussed as Shawn watched her tilt her head to the side as if inspecting something. Her hand reached down into the small group and picked one woman up. She was pleading with the giantess as she held her in her hands, inspecting her.

“Please please! Let me go! I didn’t do anything! I-I-I’ll do anything, just… my kids!” She screamed.

The giantess hardly reacted as she held the small woman in her mitten hands. She started to slowly examine her and turned her around and upside down. Finally the Giantess holding the tiny woman in her hand let out a disappointing sigh, “Not cute enough…”

Shawn watched as the cruel giantess slowly started to crumble the woman in her palms. Her enormous fingers started to push and grip at the screaming woman as her limbs started to crack and crumble. First her arms shattered then her legs. Still the horrifying screams she let out went disregarded as she continued to dismantle her. The cries slowly died out as soon the tiny person was nothing more than breadcrumbs falling from the grasp of this monster’s hand. “Let's see… OH!” She nearly squealed as her hands dipped down toward one of the few terrified people left as she picked up another person. Shawn was unable to look away as she did the same thing with the new person. She checked and examined him like some kind of present or prized object. Finally she let out a delighted noise, “Perfect! Hazel is gonna love you!” Shawn watched as the protesting man was soon dropped into a small bag hanging off the side of the giant girl. Shawn couldn’t help but hear the several noises as it seemed he wasn’t the only one stuck in there. As Shawn observed the giant girl and her prey before her, he heard her muse over a thought before muttering out loud. The next words made Shawn shiver in horror as she spoke, “Maybe I should get our dog a present too… Chester has been such a good boy recently too…”

Those words filled Shawn with pure dread as he watched the remaining people beneath the giantess freaking out at the mention of a dog getting to meet them. Sadly she didn’t care as she went to examine another villager. One for her animal pet...

Shawn fought back any feeling of remorse or pity. There was no time for that. He had to get away. Holding his breath, Shawn crossed the broken and shattered street as the enormous giantess had her back to him. She was much too busy squatting as low to the ground as possible to inspect her captives for the “perfect gifts” to notice him sneaking by. Things were going horribly well as he went unnoticed.

As Shawn made his way past the back of this unnoticing monster, he was almost just out of sight. He only needed a few more feet and he would be safe behind a half demolished building.

“Well, looks like I don’t need the rest of you,'' came a coldly cheerful voice. Shawn paused as he turned around to look at the large giantess looking down at the remaining few people shivering before her. Slowly she started to stand up from her squat position. It wasn’t till now Shawn realized how humongous she and the others had to be. The enormous child’s legs propelled her at least a hundred feet upward causing Shawn to crane his neck to see how tall she really was. Finally the happy sounding Giantess spoke once she finally stood up, “I guess I should get rid of the rest of you…”

Shawn watched as she lifted up one of her snow boots off the ground. It slowly started to hover above the group of petrified people. Shawn almost shouted for them to run, but his hand clapped over his mouth. He couldn't give his position away. Not with a monster like this nearby. Shawn was frozen as he watched the boot clad foot hover for a moment before it came down like lightning. The sound of a destructive thunder filled the area with the many snaps and crackles occupied the sounds all around as the boot slammed down dead center on the others. Shawn watched as the foot held its place for a moment before it started to grind back and forth as the girl giggled, “That sounded amazing! You all went snap, crackle, and POP! OH, woooow. I want to hear more, MORE!”

Satisfied with her work, the giantess started to move her snow boots closer to the panicked group below her. Shawn used this time to duck behind a house further away and hoped she wasn’t tall enough to see him. He glanced back at the disaster before him. How quickly that damned foot flattened his friends and neighbors with no effort wasted by the giantess. She simply only had to stomp her foot to end more than one life.

After a few dozen stomps, there was slightly less movement by the boot cladded foot. Shawn narrowed his eyes and saw that someone was still alive. They were crawling away from the massacre. Shawn could just make out a missing leg or possibly both limbs were gone.

“Stop moving,” Shawn dared to hiss toward the helpless person. They didn’t seem to listen as they kept trying to run away, with hopeless success. “Stop it,” Shawn whispered louder, daring to be heard by the monster towering above, fidgeting with her gloves she was playing with.

Shawn watched as the crawling figure paused and turned toward him, hearing his pleads. It was now that Shawn regretted speaking, as in pure horror, the crippled person slowly started to head toward his direction for safety. Shawn panicked and shook his head and arms to get them to stop moving. However they didn’t listen as they drew closer to him. Shawn was about to shout for them to stop, but the rumbling sound of the goddess before him spoke.

“Oh? One of you is still moving? Where’re you crawling off to?”  It almost sounded like she cared, but her actions beforehand just showed her true intentions.  Shawn ducked behind the wall as he heard the shifting and crouching the giantess was doing as she knelt down before the whimpering person trying to escape the horrors.

“P-p-please,” They begged.

“Awww… don’t worry,” The giantess spoke kindly as she sounded very close to Shawn. Shawn peeked out just enough to watch the girl gazing down at the shivering injured man. She smiled warmly. “It’s almost over… just got to…” The giantess opened her gloved palm and brought it up to the struggling injured person. “go…” she went on lowering her palm slowly on the pleading plight of the person before her. “Spllllaaaaaaat,” She sang as she lowered her palm in a slow descent. Shawn was horrified, but unable to look away as the cushiony looking glove pushed down and pinned the helpless citizen down. Slowly more weight was applied as the giantess went on drawing out the word in a happier tone than it should have been. Shawn could hear the muffled cries and screams, which were slowly followed by the cracking and crushing of body parts. Soon a few snaps and shattering sounds turned into dozens and hundreds of mini explosions, untill it soon went silent under the massive paw mushing downward. The muffled agonizing cries were soon replaced by what sounded like a million crumbling crunches.

Shawn was paralyzed as he watched the giantess slowly twist and turn her palm around grinding the remains of his fellow villager into a nice dust. Shawn caught a glimpse of the brown aftermath, which hardly looked like anything anymore after the damage was dealt to the helpless victim.

“Stupid cookie,” The girl giggled as she started to stand up, “Now where did the others go,” She muttered looking around as she slowly turned around before shouting, “Oh Bryan there you are, what are you doing.”

Shawn panted as he heard the heavy thumping of the cruel giantess walking away from the massacre she just caused, not even feeling the slightest sense of remorse in her actions. In fact, the tone of her voice made it sound like she was having fun, or just playing. Like she didn’t just snuff out the life of half a dozen lives. Not to mention how many she kidnapped to “save” for later use...

She and the other monsters attacking his home, why were they doing this to them? What did they ever do to them?

Shawn shook his head as he realized it didn’t matter. All that mattered was getting out. Strengthening his resolve, Shawn headed away from at least two giant monsters. He hoped he wouldn't run into any more…

Kaylee heard the destructive sound of what had to be the front gate exploding. John and Kaylee huddled in their protective home as they heard the sounds of terror and horror filling the village. Thumps and stomping sounds were going off in the distance.

“We just have to stay safe,” John told Kaylee as they continued to stay under the protective table in their safe home. Kayelee didn’t know if she agreed with John but she felt safer with him near her. Still the noises outside grew as a set of thunderous thumping could be heard growing closer. The sound of houses further away being broken and crushed filled Kaylee’s ears as what sounded like a bomb going off set off her anxiety.

“Are we safe here?” Kaylee asked John.

“Uh, yes.. yes! Of course, there’s nothing that can-”

Kaylee watched John flinch at the sound of one of their neighbor’s home being torn to pieces as something demolished it in mere seconds. The screams of their neighbors filled Kaylee’s ears as she knew those voices. “JOHN THEIR RIGHT NEXT TO US,” she harshly hissed at.

“They… they’ll pass us… by,” John told her with little to no faith in those words as he shivered under the table for protection.

Kaylee felt dread in her as the sounds of the homes next to them breaking and crunching till it started to grow silent. Kaylee swore she saw a shade of darkness pass over their windows. Something snapped in her, she wasn’t gonna die here cowering under a table. Getting up from under the table, she headed for the front door as fast as she could, dragging John behind her. He was stuttering and muttering words of protest, still thinking their home was safe.

Not listening, Kaylee darted out the front door and onto the street where a few others were running away too. Kayle had just enough time to escape their home to see an enormous giant standing by the house. He was smiling like he was having the most fun in the world. Before Kaylee could say a thing she watched the boy turn around, position his long pants covered butt toward the roof of her home. Without a word the boy leaned backwards letting gravity help him fall down on the house, his ass impacting and not just collapsing Kaylee’s home, but obliterating any material between him and the ground. The enormous being smashed the roof into pieces like it was cardboard, the sturdy walls and ceiling snapping and being pulverized into powder as the ten ton beast demolished Kaylee and John’s home in less than an instant. By the time his butt hit the ground the dust of their home swirled around and was lost to the winds.

If only to make matters worse, the child was giggling and laughing as his happy but cruel words sang out in a cheer, “BUTT SMASH! HAHAHA! So weak and pathetic.”

Kaylee winced as she watched the home that she helped build vanish so quickly, all of her help from many months of grueling labor, get demolished from the backside of some playful child. It only took an instant to watch the roof collapse in from that big backside, Kaylee didn’t try and see if any of the walls or parts of the house were recoverable, as she didn’t plan to come back for it. One moment there was a house, the next it was nothing but a torrent of trash under that enormous blasted butt that grounded the remains of her home into a fine powder.

John couldn’t help but cry out Kaylee’s words of despair as they escaped, “Our hoooome!”

“IT’S GONE,” Kaylee screamed with rage, fear, and anger as she dragged John with her , “We need to run away. That won't be the last thing they destroy and I don’t think we should stick around to see what else they have planned for everyone!”

As John thought of a response, Kaylee wasted no time running away from the blonde boy having fun sitting and kicking whatever homes were nearby. Instead, Kaylee needed to escape to the nearest exit. She ran after the moving crowd, if not for safety in numbers but hopefully they knew where to go to escape. There had to be someone who was in charge or knew what to do, right? Kaylee hurried in the crowd of panicked people as she followed the mob toward the only exit she thought was close. The sounds of the giant behind her laughing as he demolished home after home echoed in her air. Still they ran off toward what could only be their only escape from these doomed lands.

John was being tugged along like extra baggage as Kaylee followed the masses of people. House after house went by. Homes that weren’t destroyed, yet. Kyalee kept in pace with the flood of people until she heard screams break out ahead of her. Suddenly everyone changed direction and started to run away like they were under attack. Kaylee followed suit, as she went into the open street to witness the two large beasts before them chucking objects around and pieces of someone’s home.

Kaylee watched a girl with earmuffs kick an empty house around, sending the housing parts throughout the city in a scattering rain of debris from above. The other one, the boy, was less interested in breaking things as he occasionally tapped a home with his foot to check for reactions. He didn’t seem too bothered by Kaylee’s group running away. However the earmuff girl was going hard core, grabbing the stragglers and bringing them up to her face to say some “unkind words” all before they were obliterated into a crumbling demise in her destructive palm. The screams silenced by their bodies scattering in the wind and falling to the ground in a dusty pile of bits. Kaylee watched as the line of people way behind her being attacked, slowly plucked up to and examined, only to be pulverized into a messy rain of brown crumbs. Some were being brought to the giantess' mouth, others just demolished into a fine pulverized mist of particulates.

Trying to stay out of the reach of those demonic demons laughing as they ruined everyone’s lives and homes, Kaylee tugged John with her toward what she hoped was safety. This was the only path to go, they were surrounded by these giant monsters terrorizing them from almost every direction. Kayle weaved between homes and back alleys as she darted from one open street to another. Soon the crowd of people thinned as she headed to another part of the town. This one was still ready to be attacked, but that wouldn’t be for long as the echoing sounds of destruction were nearby.

“Kayle,” John protested, “Shouldn’t we stay with the others?”

“Just shut up John,” Kayle barked as she dragged him with her. “It’s not safe with them. We stand a better chance by ourselves.” Kayle peered out from behind a building and saw the street was clear. “Alright let's go,” Kayle told John as she headed out to cross the long road. She only got a few blocks before something came out of nowhere. Kayle watched as a one female giant stood up from a crouching position a few blocks over and towered over the homes she was hiding behind. She was hunched down almost to the roof tops to be noticed, but now she was standing at her massive size dozens of homes high. Worse was how she laid her eyes on Kayle and John’s location. Those devilish eyes dancing in delight.

The enormous head twisted and dipped down as she spotted them running through the street. “What do we have here? We're you two trying to run off,” She asked, not sounding too interested in a response. Instead she was already steeping toward Kayle and John, only slightly breaking a house or two as she cut them off. Kayle watched the enormous beast stand before her. Shaking her head, she turned and ran in the opposite direction, yanking John with her.

“Ugh, so rude, running away from me,” The giantess groaned as she took a few more steps away. The ground shuddered under her massive size as she followed after Kayle and John. Kaylee looked for a home or ally way to duck into to try and lose the giantess, but there weren’t any open spots. That couldn’t be easily cut off by the monster. They were in the wide open street.

“Come on, hurry up,” Kayle protested to John who was having trouble holding onto Kayle’s arm as she urged him to move faster.

“Gonna be rude,” The giantess spoke with an upset tone, as she was following with ease after them. “I’ll just be rude right back.”

As Kayle did her best not to recognize how close she was to them, the sound of gurgling and hocking filled the air with its disgusting, guzzling noise. It was almost like hearing fireworks or thunder going off as the gargling went on for a while. No matter how hard and fast Kaye went the sounds continued to follow with ease.

“COME ON,” Kayle screamed at John who was still dragging behind.

Kayle wasn’t excited at the disgusting sounds filling the air but she couldn’t outrun them. Finally the sounds of guzzling goo stopped, and Kayle glanced behind her. She saw the Giantess with puckered cheeks and pressed lips as she glared at them with the hate she was holding for them. Kayle screeched at the deadly glare as she tried to run faster.

It didn’t last long as Kayle heard the spitting sound as a massive gunky glob of goo flew through the silent air. Kayle expected to feel the blob of bubbles blast her in the back. Instead she didn’t feel anything, in fact she swore it was a miss. Not waiting to experience another attack, Kayle pushed on with more effort to outrun the horrifying monster behind her.

“Hurry up,” Kayle panted tugging on John. She was making progress as she glanced behind at the slowly walking giantess. They were gonna get away. The cocky looking giantess was falling behind, maybe it was from a lack of interest or just the unwillingness to chase them. Either way, John and Kayle were getting away from the monster.

“I can’t,” John protested as he slowed down dragging Kayle with him as if giving up.

“JOHN!” Kaye barked at his unreasonable action, yanking on his hand. “COME ON!”

“No… I … just...can’t,” John cried out, slowing down even more than before.

Kayle was in a rage at his protest causing her to spin around and glare daggers at him, “WHAT DO YOU MEAN…” Kayle’s rage vanished in an instant when she spotted John. Kayle gasped as she saw John’s lower body, mostly his legs covered in a foamy liquid. The lower half of his body was looking heavy, bloated, and soft, all from the massive amount of liquid spit that covered them. John’s legs already were fracturing as Kayle saw the stress lines in the now softer material covering John’s body. With the damp fluid soaking into John’s legs, there was no way he could move on, as it slowly was destroying his body from the stress. “John…” Kayle whimpered as she looked at him. The sound of the giantess slowly gaining ground was all background noise to her as she watched John struggling.

“It’s okay…” John smiled weakly at Kayle. “Get out of here…”

“No.. no! Not without,” Kayle screamed, feeling her emotions get the best of her.

John was still laying down as cracks and fractures grew on his legs. If he tried to move them, they surely would have snapped as more of the bubbly spit on them dissolved into them making them useless. “Kayle… please. Just go. I’m sorry for slowing you down, but at least now… I’ll give you more time to get out of here even if it’s just a moment.”

Kayle shook her head, “What are you saying?”

“Kayle go!” John shouted with more rage than ever, as the thumping got louder as the giantess walked to them with a pace unmatched by any running they could do.

Kayle still protested, “John I-”

John gave Kayle a hard shove as he cried for her to leave him, “GOOOO!”

Kayle paused for a moment, seeing the pleading look in John’s face… but the growing footsteps drawing closer to her made her cut a glance toward the towering beast. Crying tears at her lover, Kayle did the hardest thing in her life, as she left John. Kayle felt her crying hit harder as she ran away. The sound of the giantess stopping and crouching down was quickly followed up by another horrifying sound of a mouthful of goo being built up in that disgusting creature.

Kayle didn’t look back. She didn’t need to as she heard the sounds of spitting and the slow dribbling noise instead of a splat followed by the amassing of liquid. John was getting a slow death as Kyale could only imagine the dribble of saliva oozing downward at an agonizing pace and a very long stingy strand. Kyale could see John getting covered in the horribly hot spray of spit as it rolled slowly over his body and breaking him down the moment it touched his delicate body. The layer of loogie goo attacking and dissolving portions of John’s body the moment it made contact. A horrifying demise that no one, especially John, should be put through-

The sounds of John’s gargled screams caused Kayle to spin around. She saw a horror show she wasn’t ready for. Streams of slobber were pouring down from the Giantess’ puckered mouth as John withered and screamed for mercy as he soaked it up, unable to move out of the way. The glittery globs of gunk leaked from the giantess mouth and onto John's defenseless body. The droplets of dew drenched him as a build up of liquid layers, slowly leached into his body. It was like someone was pouring acid on him as Kayle watched portions of John’s body breaking down from the saliva saturation around his body. Chunks chiseled off as the Giantess continued to spew a long dripping deluge of drool on John below her, the sickening smirk spreading the cruel girl's face made Kayle weep harder as John’s cookie body broke down in chunks and parts. Kayle had to force herself to turn away, otherwise she would have ran to John to try and save him or at least end the torment he was undergoing.

As Kayle ran off she couldn’t help but hear the high pitched laughs coming from the giantess as she continued to torture John to her amusment. Those cruel sounds echoed around Kaylee as she ran away looking for a way out of this horrible nightmare.

Kaylee ran into a small cluster of fellow townsfolk. To say she calmed down from the loss of John would be a lie, but she forced herself to focus only on one thing, escaping. However, with the wall of people in front of her, it was hard to get around them. There had to be about twenty or so meandering figures just shuffling forward. Even this close to the wall and its possible exit, Kaylee still didn’t feel safe standing out in the open as a few more people closed in behind her. Soon she was one with the crowd wondering what was taking so long to get the heck out of here.

Finally Kaylee heard someone complaining about a door stuck or locked. Apparently they couldn't go out this way. Hearing the horrible news, Kaylee decided to backtrack and maybe get out the front gate that was now just a gaping hole. That was if she could get past the giant monsters attacking-

A sudden scream was heard behind Kaylee before another. Spinning around, Kaylee watched with dread as five menacing figures approached in a semicircle toward them. Each path toward the center of the town was blocked off by one of the encroaching figures, as they encroached the small crowd. Kayle saw there was no way past them as they effectively cut off the rest of the town without having to run past one of those monsters. Kaylee watched as each giant checked a home that was nearby and untouched. One of the males, just straight up stomped on a home, another breaking the roof with their hands to check inside, and another just casually tapping the door as if a friendly mailman was knocking. Slowly it dawned on Kaylee that they were all heading to this one point and everyone had nowhere else to go, except right into the giant attackers slowly closing circle that they formed.

The blond male giant spoke with a toothy grin, “And you guys didn’t believe me.” He laughed, as he came in from the southern side of the ring they made.

The sound of the giantess wearing earmuffs scoffing, “Cause who would? A cookie village? That’s, like, totally made up.”

“And yet here we are,” The blond laughed as his eyes turned from the one arguing with him toward the crowded citizens.

“Oh shut up Andy,” She scoffed as the giantess stomped down on a portion of a house, obliterating it into a messy rubble due to her annoyed reaction to Andy’s comments. Kaylee figured no one was in the poor home, or if they were, they got a quick death from the destructive action caused by this angry child..

Kaylee felt the crowd press in harder as the giant beings grew closer and shrinking the ever smaller ring they formed, soon they were less than ten or so feet away from the crowd huddling away from them. Everyone was in the kill zone as the giant creatures were standing above them. Each menacing titans were towering above all the frightened citizens trying to escape. Kaylee inched away from that bile blasting bitch that killed John. Kayle wiggled through the tight mass of people as no one dared make a fast move while the five god-like creatures stood before them with smirking or smiling grins on their faces. They were so happy to have Kaylee and the others cornered, that it made Kaylee’s gut turn at the sights.

Suddenly the blonde one squatted down till he was leveled out with a few homes nearby. His smile would have been sweet if it weren’t for the fact that he was the one that started this horrible mess. Still grinning, his head turned to the side a little before seeing something interesting. With no warning, his hand shot out, grabbing the nearest villager. Kaylee couldn't see who it was, but the sounds of protesting and screaming could be heard as they screamed and fought while being plucked off the ground while no one could help them.

The blonde beast brought the struggling person up toward his face. Kaylee watched, along with all the terrified villagers, as the boy’s mouth started to open wide. Kaylee felt her stomach drop as the beastly boy brought the screaming citizen toward that maw that only grew larger every second since he picked up the person in his hand.

“Ewww, what are you doing,” The earmuff girl asked looking disgusted at the blond boy.

“Uh… eating a cookie, duhhhh,” He scoffed.

Still the girl that retorted his action didn’t let up, “You don’t know where it’s been! Yuck!”

Kaylee didn’t know what they were fighting about but it sounded like it was an argument not to eat them. However those dreams vanished when the boy gave the girl a drool look before adding some snarky attitude to it, “Uh, if they can move around I’m pretty sure they can stay clean. DUH!”

He didn’t wait for any other words of protest or arguments, as he brought the kicking and squirming person to his mouth. All was silent as everyone, villagers and giants, watched and listened to what happened next. Kaylee looked on with dread as the pleading person’s head was placed inside the mouth. There were only a few more pleading screams and begging before a row of sharp teeth came crashing down. Everything grew silent with a nasty harsh crushing and cracking noise filling the dead air. The silent sound was soon filled with the hollow crunching and snapping sounds as the blond beast went on chewing. It only took a few moments before the remains of his meal was swallowed, finally leaving the boy smiling, “MMMM, that’s good! You guys got to try this! It’s like, totally the best freaking cookie ever made!”

Kaylee felt her heart drop as all four sets of eyes slowly turned toward the helpless crowd before them. The look of hunger and wonder filled their gazes. It seemed they wanted to experience this mysterious realm of edibles. With the first blood shedded, the others didn’t wait. Soon all hell broke loose as each giant creature started to sit or squat down nearby and reached for the closest cookie creature. Kaylee gasped as she watched giant enormous hands swiping and swinging by, plucking people out of the crowd she was currently in. Each was brought up to a puzzled and very curious looking face of the massive children. Sadly any remorse, humanity, or worry that SHOULD have been on those faces were absent as they held their victims before them. The interested and wondering looks filled each of the other towering beings telling Kaylee just what they were thinking. MMM FOOD!

If it wasn’t clear in the next few moments each struggling and protesting villager was soon stuffed into a mouth or snatched up by a hand. Some were shoved head first into a chomping maw, another slowly lowered kicking feet first of a mouth with a tongue sticking out ready for them, and another brutally snapped in half before the upper part was tossed into the empty mouth that chomped and crunched them into a more swallow-able size. Kaylee shuddered as she heard the nightmarish crunching and chewing sounds filled the air as the young giants all made happy noises at the demise of her fellow people.

“OH MY! That’s delicious!” The one with earmuffs squealed.

One of the other boys nodded as they pushed more of a person into his mouth and continued to chew, “Kind of reminds me of my mom’s Christmas cookies.”

Each enormous being continued to eat and devour together almost as if they were all synchronizing their eating, only to swallow at nearly the same point and reach for yet another terrfied and stunned person. “Andy was right, THEY ARE amazing!”

Kaylee slowly backed away in the petrified crowd as she tried to put more distance between her and those horrible humans. Sadly others were thinking of the same thing as more people pushed and shoved forward and away from their deaths. In less than a second the silent crowd turned into a horror show, as screaming and shoving replaced the horror stunned crowd. Kaylee was pushed back and forth as many tried to bypass her to get ahead of her. As the crowd freaked out, Kaylee was caught motionless as she watched the childish looking giants beaming a smile down at all of them with massive delight and glee. The look of joy petrified her as none of them seemed to be doing this out of spite or hatred, it was just… fun.

“I didn’t have lunch,” one larger boy of the group said, squatting down, reaching into the masses, grabbing two or three villagers in one hand. “My dad said I should watch my carbs, but thankfully cookies aren’t made of bread.”

Kaylee saw as the boy pushed the group of people into his mouth. Pieces of those poor people were snapping and breaking into crumbs, unable to fully fit in that massive mouth, there was no way any of them were fully intact when they entered his jaw. Worse was the brown downpour of raining crumbs falling from the child’s lips due to the carnage they caused to Kaylee’s people.. Kaylee could hear the sounds of screaming and yelling quickly getting muffled once they passed those lips shutting close. The noises from inside only increased and died down when the crunching and chewing followed. Kaylee looked away as she could only flinch from the silent noises and lack of screams from each and every earth shattering sound that echoed out from that boy’s maw, only to be followed by very silent eerie calmness.

“Well if Bryan likes them…” The other female added in, the one without earmuffs, said seeming more interested, reached out for another person in the crowd. Kaylee watched as the massive arm approached and snatched up one helpless citizen nearby. The pleading man begged for mercy but as the girl brought up her free hand to the struggling guy, things were clearly doomed. Sure enough, she grabbed the man’s leg and gave it a quick bend. The pleading turned to a scream as his limb was snapped in half. The childish demon didn’t seem to mind the cries as she flicked it into her mouth. “They do taste pretty good…” She responded as she munched on the leg she snapped off. With no hesitation she went for the leg next. Kaylee shook her head in horror as she now turned away and shoved through people before her and to some kind of safety. However the sounds of the poor person being broken down limb by limb and being eaten overtook the muttering sound in the crowd.

Kaylee heard a villager and a few others shouting to run aways. Kaylee turned around as she saw a portion of the back part of the crowd try and run away past the giants. They tried to run down the streets the enormous beings were occupying or blocking, the resounding noises of thumps and slaps were heard. Kaylee didn’t have to see it as she recognized the sound of her people being smashed and crushed by the demonic beings blocking them. Any foolish soul that thought they could make it past them, were swatted and smitted before their godly beings. It was hopeless...

“Stupid cookies,” One of them laughed, which only solidifying what Kaylee thought was to be reality. Anyone trying to escape was smited, and those who stayed…. Well by the hungry looks and licking of lips, Kaylee knew what that meant. She could only pray that maybe they would get full before they got to her.

That thought vanished as the five ferocious fiends before her started to collapse in on the crowd of people. Before Kaylee knew it enormous hands came dipping down plucking people up one by one. Enormous digits pinching and pulling frantic villagers up and out of the town toward their doom. Kaylee tried to ignore the sounds but it was hard. The sudden noises of smashing from their giant’s mouths which was followed by silencing of screams or cries, only increased her revolution of the situation.

As Kaylee tried to escape the many encroaching hands, she couldn't help but listen to the dozens or even hundreds of pleading and screaming citizens being plucked out of the crowd to meet their fate. Those lives were sealed as they were brought begging and crying out for help that would never come. Soon the noises were cut off by crunching and munching noises. The sounds that seemed to fill the air around everyone as the giant creatures kept eating and pressing in on all the trapped people...

Anyone trying to escape while their attackers were busy were met with a hand or even a leg blocking or worse, smashing into the fleeing person. Kaylee watched one man nearly get away only to have an enormous snow boot come crashing down, crushing him into a flatten brown powder that was mixed in with a layer of white snow.

All Kaylee could do was back up as the wall of people was slowly dwindling between her and the devilishly hungry kids. There was nowhere to go as the beast barraged the crowd with grabbing hands and drooling looks. Kaylee could hear the noises others were making as they were shoved toward their doom. As the seconds turned to minutes the five towering titans inched in closer toward the rest of the amassed and trapped citizens, tightening the enclosure they made. Kaylee’s window to escape closing as their bodies grew closer forming a gate of lengthy limbs able to react in moments of any fleeing attempts.

“They taste soooo good,” mumbled one of the females through a half bitten person. The words spewing crumbs out of her mouth, raining down on the horrified citizens below her.

“I don’t know… they're kind of dry,” Complained the other female, the one with earmuffs muttering as she held a screaming person in her hands, as she slowly licked the back of her captive. It was the same monster that killed off John with her spit. Kaylee watched as she went back for another lick on the back of the poor person, the terrible cry he let out as she induced another layer of spital on his back from the lashing of her lick. The sound of him begging and squirming waned as parts of his body were already getting dissolved and broken down. Any frosting that was on their back was either licked up or dripping down their sides. Kaylee watched the spasming of the tormented prisoner. It only took a few more licks before he went still and finally parts of him were dripping out of the giantess hand, liquifying her captive. Kaylee almost felt faint at the sight, however it only got worse as the giantess slowly slurped and licked up the remains of the goo in her palms. Not even chewing as she inhaled the mushy mess. Through the mushy mouth of a freshly massacred man, she went on, “The frosting is the best part.” Muffled sounds barely filtered out of the stuffed mouth as she gulped down her latest victim and looked for a fresh one.

“I think Jackie’s right, they taste a little stale,” The girl without earmuffs said as she held a pleading person. Her gloved fingers were already cracking and snapping parts of their body off, crumbling their limbs into small pieces as she rubbed and pinched them into a dusty powder that sprinkled the ground below her. Almost as if she was seasoning the snow with her victims' bodies. It was so brown under her, it almost looked like the snow melted and was showing off the dirt beneath it.

Kaylee heard one of the giant boys respond, “Well I still got some coco left… could maybe, like, dip them in?”

“OH YES PLEASE,” The thrilled girl said, shifting toward the one that was offering whatever coco was. Kaylee watched as the boy finished off his victim in his hand, shoving the rest into his mouth and munching, before reaching into his backpack for something. Pulling out a large thermos easily as tall as one of the many homes that used to be standing. Kaylee had never seen anything like the metal looking cylinder. She was so preoccupied with the strange object she didn’t notice the gloved hand reaching from the other side toward her.

Kaylee’s attention came back too late as the large dark shadowy paw descended on her. The gloved hand came down faster than she could react, with her delayed attempt it couldn't get away. Before Kaylee knew it, the mitten covered hand already had her in its grasp. Kaylee struggled as much as she could but the grip around her held firm and fierce. The soft material was remarkably stiff around Kaylee’s body as she was lifted off the ground and the dozens of others below her watched, unable to help. Kaylee’s panick grew as she could see the other giants continued to do their tormenting with delight. Either picking up someone and hurting them, or straight up chomping them in half, some were even played with as they were broken apart one small snap at a time.

“No no, let me go,” Kaylee pleaded as she was carried up far from the ground. The gloved hand grappling her pinned her delicate limbs to her side, preventing any major struggling. Kaylee was lifted up toward an excited looking face as she looked at her for just a moment before turning away from her attacker looking for something to use to escape with.

Kaylee was helpless as she could only watch as her captive held out her free hand for the weird object the boy was handing over. It was quickly traded off to the other mittened hand of Kyalee’s giantess. The gloved hand grabbed and held tight to the large metal canister in her other palm. Kaylee watched with fear and bewilderment as both she and the container were brought close to each other. Not knowing what it was, she could only assume it looked like some kind of capturing device to hold her and possibly others for later. It wasn’t till Kaylee saw her giantess struggling with trying to open the lid of the device that she let out a few huffs and disappointed sounds.

“Wally… I can’t open it,” She whined, complaining about the object, holding it out for the male that gave it to her.

“Jeez…” He grumbled looking at her with less than amused light in his eyes, “You could have just gotten rid of that thing and used your hands,” Shaking his head he reached out with one of his hands for the top of the canister. With a firm grip, he quickly unscrewed the top of the cylinder.

Kaylee watched as the large opening came off and what looked to be a cloud of smoke rising from the now released top. White fluffy clouds billowed out from the mouth of the canister. Kyalee was mortified by the sudden appearance of the clouds and warm heat coming out of it.

“Wh-what’s in there,” Kaylee asked, not expecting a reaction or answer from anyone. Instead she only got a delighted noise from her captive as she thanked the boy for helping. Kaylee could only watch as she felt the hand she was trapped in moving. She was coming closer toward the now open canaster. “Wait wait, no please,” Kaylee started to beg in horror and fear of what might happen to her.

The steamy opening was growing closer as Kaylee approached the now lidless object. Kaylee could feel the heat from here, and she wasn’t even close to the steamy opening coughing up billows of sizzling smoke. Suddenly Kaylee felt herself flipping upside down. Letting out a scream of terror from the sudden flip, she was now being held upside down by her leg. Things only got worse from here as she was being lifted up toward the opening.

“NO NO NO!” Kaylee screamed as she soon was brought over the gaping hole.

The hot humid clouds of steam rolled over Kyalee’s body, dampening her with the hot moister leaving the container and attaching themselves to her skin. The smell of chocolate filled her noise as she swung upside down. Dangling before the pit below her, Kaylee had no control over anything. She was stuck until released, and she feared that wouldn’t be the best thing for her as she dangled over the cavernous opening below her.

The steamy stream of smoke smothered Kaylee in a dense deluge of delirium. The heat and haze got to her as she could feel the sizzling steam swarm her. The hot air was already causing her body to act weird from all the moister seeping into her. Kaylee felt exhausted and heavy as her waving limbs felt like they gained a few pounds from just hanging over the open portal. The muggy air drifting up toward Kaylee was a hellish experience for her. However when she felt herself being lower, it truly dawned on her what was gonna happen.

Kaylee watched the steamy cloud grow harsher as she was dropped downward to the source of it all. The white vapors clouded her vision as she was dipped lower and lower past the mouth of the hole. Her vision was obscured not just by the water vapor but soon the walls from the container she was being lowered into. The smell of chocolate was growing with the heat which was getting unbearable, still the fingers on her leg were as tight as ever. It wasn’t till Kaylee thought her leg was gonna snap from the weight on it, that she noticed how close she was to the liquid trapped in this container. The brown, almost black looking liquid, spewing out the steamy smoke that smothered her view. Kaylee could feel the heat from here and it was so intense that she would be sweating, if she could. Instead she could feel the joints and other parts of her starting to defrost. The layer of moisture and dampness was eroding away and nipping away at her body. Slowly breaking her down as she dangled there.

The lower Kaylee went the worse her situation was, but it wasn’t till she was slowly dipped into the liquid did her true hell hit her. The feeling of molten lava biting at the tip of her head caused her to scream and thrash as she was lowered into this hot coco. Kaylee felt her very body being burned as she was pushed deeper and deeper under the surface of the scoulding hot liquid. Kaylee soon felt her head and neck go down, the blazing batter filling her whole upper body with its flaming furry. Kaylee felt like she was being lowered into a volcano’s lava pit as she head was submerged in the terrible torturous tide. Lower and lower she was dropped as her face was soon dipped down to her chin and neck. Tormented sounds of agony left Kaylee’s screeching mouth as the raging boiling bile blistered her body as she was dunked deeper. It wasn’t till half of her body succumbed to the scorching solution, splashing over her that Kaylee screamed out.

As horrible as it was being dunked into boiling lava, when she was yanked outward, the cold air only made it ten times worse. The difference in her body temp and the air made her go into shock. Still she was conscious enough to see the gapping mouth open wide as she was being dragged toward it. The dark grizzly maw open before her showed her the dark depth of her doom. Parts of her body were dropping off of her like melted meat oozing off. Her cookie form was crumbling away as she was being introduced to her true and utter demise.

“You fucking monster,” Kayle gagged and coughed out as she was slowly being lowered toward the open mouth below her. Those enormous teeth and slimy tongue awaiting her, twitching and wiggling in anticipation for its next snack. The smell of cinnamon and nutmeg was strong, as the previous snacks she had were still lingering around, filling Kaylee’s air with the stench of her fallen comrades and friends. It was obvious she wasn't going to make it, but she couldn’t give up hope until the end. Always praying something would happen…

It didn’t.

Kaylee was soon lowered into the mouth of the excited and hungry giantess, her body already breaking apart from the slapping tongue guding her toward the hole she would be disposed of in. Saliva mixed in, breaking down Kaylee’s weakened and broken body, the hot coco was already being extracted as Kyalee was sucked and licking the parts of Kaylee being inserted into her mouth. Kaylee’s legs and arms slowly braking, suddenly the smashing and grinding sensation of teeth obliterated Kaylee’s body as they attacked her unprepared weakened body. Kayelee's head was already dissolving off her body, but the giantess' mouth was too busy sucking the juices out of her poor self. It only took a few moments, but the pressure all around Kaylee’s body increased and a tense and furious push from all around caused everything to burst. Kaylee’s consciousness evaporated in an explosion of cinnamon and nutmeg mixed with chocolate. The last thing Kaylee experienced in her demise was the almost cute sound of swallowing from all around her as her form shattered into a million smushy crumbs and gobbled down in a gulp so mighty that it sounded like a thunderclap...

Shawn couldn’t believe what he was seeing. Countless people being picked up out of the ensuing crowd only to be eaten or played with… what a horrible nightmare.

Being part of the back of the crowd he was busy trying to open the exit door… sadly there was a key needed, and with a back door like this, the structure was bricked off and firmly in place. No one was leaving through this door without the key, which they didn’t have.

Without an exit Shawn could only watch as dozen if not more people were pulled out of the crowd to feed these monstrous beings. Person after person being lifted up and shoved into a mouth or “explored” till they crumbled to dust, left Shawn with a sour taste in his mouth. Layers of the crowd slowly dwindled before Shawn’s eyes. What was worse than seeing the waning crowd shrink was the deadly silence that followed. Soon the massive cries and screams for help soon trickled down to just a few gasps and pleads as there were less and less people left to make a noise.

Soon there were only half a dozen of them left as they stood up against the hard brick wall seeing the destroyers picking their next victims, one by one. Just as Shawn thought he was gonna be in the next wave of chosen, he watched as each of the giant beings looked more than content. One of the males burped and sighed as he stood up from his squatting position he used to snatch and swipe up new victims.

“Man, I am stuffed. That was one hell of a snack,” he laughed, patting his multi-clothed stomach. Shawn couldn’t tell if it was billowying outwards due to the many warm layers he was wearing, or the many innocent people consumed by his gluttonous greed.

“Me too,” the female with the ear covering chimed in dropping a half eaten person. Sadly, she started with the head. The lower torso and legs were all that was left as she discarded the remains like it wasn’t a living person beforehand. Chucked into the rumble of what remained of their once peaceful and vibrant town. Soon the brown body was lost in the heap of crumbled and crushed buildings.

Shawn’s head turned toward another giant, as the taller male shrugged. “I had enough sugar for the day. I’m pretty sure I’m gonna regret eating this much.”

It seemed the majority of their enormous demons were done. That only left two, the girl not wearing anything over her ears came closer. “Let me just see something before we go.” Shawn backed up on instincts as she got nearer and opened a side bag. Shawn could hear the voices of several others stuck in there begging to be let go or where a significant other was. Shawn could only imagine what it was like to be separated from the ones they loved in such a horrible event. As much as Shawn didn’t want to be eaten or crushed, he couldn’t imagine what she was gathering others for, and he really didn’t want to be one of them. Slowly those bright cheerful eyes glazed over Shawn and the others left. A few quick glances she let out a sadden sound, “Awww none of them are cute enough to keep for later… all well.”

Shawn wasn’t sure if he felt insulted or relieved at the comment. However the bag was closed shut and the towering titan stood up and started to walk away with the others. That only left one of them behind, and he didn’t look all too hungry either. So what did that mean, were they gonna be crushed by this one for the fun of it?

“You coming Wally,” The blonde hair boy called out waiting for a response.

Wally, as his name was, slowly stood up and sighed, “Yeah in a second.”

“What’s taking so long, it’s getting cold out,” One of the females complained as she shuddered in the wake of their destruction. Homes and buildings left in rubble and crumbs.

“Yeah yeah, hold your horses” Wally called out standing there still towering over Shawn and the others. He was a few foot stomp lengths away to pose any threat with stepping on anyone, and standing up meant he wasn’t gonna use his hands. He just was looking down at them with a cold smirk on his face, one that made Shawn shiver. “Give me a minute, I drank a lot of hot chocolate before getting here.” He called back to the rest of the group.

Shawn didn’t know what that meant, but the reactions of the two females making disgusted sounds, followed by the males laughing and chuckling didn’t bode well with Shawn as he felt a horrible sense of dread rise in him. Unable to go anywhere, seeing as the only path out was past the giant before them, Shawn could only wait. Praying for the best outcome.

It wasn’t till Shawn watched the male starting to touch his clothing around his hips. The sound of a belt and something popping or snapping filled the silence only to be followed by a long zipping noise. Shawn watched as the male started to mess around with his clothing.

“Geez it’s freaking freezing out here, isn’t it,” The giant asked muttering as he shifted his feet a little wider in position. “I guess I should help warm you guys up before I leave, yeah?”

No one knew in the slightest what he was referring to, and to be honest, Shawn didn’t want anything from this disgusting creature. There wasn’t anything that he or they could do to fix the horrors that they put everyone through and the many lives that they took. To think that he would want to help-

Shawn’s thoughts and anger were silenced as it started to rain. Or it sounded like it was raining as liquid started to fall down from above. However it wasn’t a few little droplets before him. Shawn wasn’t sure what that was as the liquid hit the snowy ground and melted the white snow into a sizzling hole. Before Shawn could point out the little patches of snow melting for some odd reason, the sound of a loud hissing animal hit Shawn’s ears. It was soon followed by a fellow man next to him screaming bloody horror. Shawn turned and jumped backwards as a bright yellow fluid was being sprayed at the poor innocent man next him. The fluid sliced and cut into the screaming defenseless person as his body melted and broke apart, as if some kind of yellow laser was attacking him, breaking him down in a matter of seconds. In a matter of moments the standing man was nothing more than a puddle-like mixture of brown and yellow material seeping into the clean snow, melting away any of the white powder under him into a nasty mixture of colors.

Horrified, Shawn backed away as he watched the laser beam of yellow fluid slice through the air just missing him and hitting another person nearby. The liquid line lanced out and hit a protesting woman in the face, melting and obliterating it off her body. Her body slumped to the snow only to be doused in a heaping steaming haze of yellow, soaking the liquid up and bubbling into a goop in the snow. Shawn watched as everyone started to run and dart as the yellow secretion swished and swayed through the air picking the others off.

Shawn heard the laughter before him as the giant continued to do whatever it was he was doing. “HAHA, not so fast… OH… right between the eyes...where do you think you're going, toooo slow… ooooh nasty.”

There was nowhere to go, as Shawn heard one after another making the most agonizing sounds before it got deathly silent. The sound of hissing and sizzling was all around Shawn as the spraying mysterious liquid swished and slashed through the air, cutting and dissolving snow and person alike, leaving yellow marks and deep groves in the cold snow. Finally their numbers were down to just one or two, Shawn gave up, just standing there watching as Wally moved and swayed his hips around as he continued to rain down his judgment from above. Shawn watched as Wally’s eyes noticed him in the middle of a few diseased bodies and started to redirect his hips and spray toward him. Shawn didn’t react as he watched the yellow line slicing through the air start to cut toward him. The sizzling snow on the ground evaporating and melting from the force and heat, the path coming toward him next.

Shawn accepted his fate and prayed that it was over fast. The roaring sound of the liquid laser lancing toward him filled his ears till it was right on him…

The sound was there for a moment but slowly started to die down. Shawn opened his eyes slowly and watched the spraying slow down, from a blazing blast into a weakened spray or spit. The strong fierce yellow colored line of death in the air soon turned to a dotted line and soon it vanished as all that was left was yellow snow leading back to the monster standing before them with legs and hips posed.

“Ahhhh, all empty. Looks like the rest of you are lucky I didn’t drink the whole bottle, am I right,” The boy laughed as he went back to fiddling with his pants, zipping and buttoning them back up. “Anyway what a blast-” he started to snicker and laugh before someone called out.

“WALLIS, we’re leaving. Are you coming, or gonna keep playing with yourself?”

“Yeah yeah,” Wallis called out as he turned around and heard after the others. “Can’t even take a piss without you guys bust my butt about it…”

Shawn was still too stunned to notice the smell around him. He was alive…

It wasn’t till now that the carnage around him sunk in as he looked around at the five or six pools of melted remains and snow. The patches left behind by that monster were still sizzling and steaming in the cold air. Shawn closed his eyes and didn’t look at the nearest crater. He spotted two others still alive huddling up against the wall that was supposed to protect them from such monsters, but from the other side. Sadly all it did was doom everyone before them. Shawn didn’t know what to do next as he looked over what remained of his safe village. There was nothing left, and what was worse the giant beast trampled through their city wall leaving large huge holes for other animals to get in at another time.

It wasn’t till the last two survivors came to him asking him what to do that he realized what that meant. They were looking to him for leadership. Not sure what to say, he could only think of what the leader of the village would say, “Lo-look for, look for survivors…”

Shawn doubted anyone besides them made it, but he would have to hold hope out for it, “Than… than we… we’ll head to the nearest town. We’ll be safe there.”

Something that Shawn doubted was true.

“Not gonna lie that was more fun than I thought,” Bryan said as they all walked back home.

Andy smiled as everyone agreed. Each of them having a blast. “Well you know, I was thinking,” Andy said as they climbed over a fallen tree and shuffled through some knee high snow, “IF there was one cookie city… there’s got to be another, right?”

This seemed to make all the others pause.

“You mean, there might be another town?!”

Andy shrugged, “Why not? You guys want to go hunting for more?”

Sydney was the only one not really into the idea, “How are we gonna find another one? You just got lucky finding that one.”

Andy was about to say something rude about her negative attitude but one look at Jackie and he suddenly had a plan, “Easy… Jackie.”

Jackie was busy holding her bag close and protected to hear Andy call her, after the second time she was called she perked up. “Huh, what?”

“Bring your dog, Chester next time, I’m sure one of them, cookie people, will smell the same… Chester can sniff them out for us.” Andy was hit with sounds of approval and excited remarks from his friends. Excited at the idea of going cookie hunting, Andy smiled and was so happy that Santa actually granted his Christmas wish this year. Thanks to him, Andy was sure he and his friends would have tons of fun the next couple of days…
