Shiara

__Crumbelina’s Digested Process Adventure __ media type="file" key="shiara-PBJ.mp3" width="240" height="20" It all started with a bag of white, fluffy bread. I came from Von’s, along with another loaf next door. I was very popular in our plastic bag. I was known for my multi-grain body. I’m the only one in my bag to be multi-grain body except for Tommy Toast. Oh how much I adored Tommy. He is so handsome. I think he liked me too. Everyone liked me, even the humans. Well at least I thought so. Then there was a day when Tommy and I bumped our crusts and we both were sent tumbling to the floor. He got up quicker than I did so he offered to help me up. How could I decline a perfectly good hand asking to help me up especially if it was Tommy Toast? He helped me up and slipped me his number for his toast phone. I was so happy and excited that I fainted and fell to the floor again. When I awoke I was in my bed and Tommy Toast was lying on the floor fast asleep. I woke him up and thanked him. We walked out into town and right then and there, there was a loaf quake. The bag shook and shook and then it felt like we were just plopped down on the ground again. Everyone was relieved that the irony was over until the bag was ripped open and a big, dry hand came and picked up Tommy. I was terrified for him so I grabbed his leg and hung on for my dear life. The human was surprised that two pieces came out when he only grabbed one but he didn’t really care all that much so he pulled us apart and plopped us on a plate. We were anxious to see what the human had in store for us. We both gazed at the man to see what he could possibly be doing. We got a glimpse of him pulling Raspberry Jam out of the refrigerator and she was placed right by the plate on my side. I asked her what was going on but she just stared at me and shivered. Then she finally coughed up, “Don’t resist or it will just be more painful.” I answered, “Resist what? What is going to be painful? Raspberry I need some answers you can’t leave me hanging here!” She didn’t talk after that, she just stared and stared and stared. I began to get really uncomfortable but I lost the feeling when I saw the human come back with Peanut Butter. He was set next to the plate closest to Tommy. Tommy and Peanut Butter were having their own conversation till I saw Tommy’s reaction after Peanut Butter had said something. I nudged Tommy and asked what was wrong. He was so frightened he whispered to me, “Were…getting eat…eaten.” I looked at him in terror and screamed because one I was so afraid and two the human came back with a big, shiny knife. Tommy began to yell for help but Raspberry Jam said once again, “Don’t resist or it will just be more painful.” The human apparently didn’t hear us and twisted the cap off of Peanut Butter. The human stuck the knife in Peanut Butter and took out a chunk of his insides. Peanut Butter merely screamed which was surprising but not really because he must be used to it. The human smeared the peanut butter on Tommy. Tommy trembled as he was smothered with peanut butter quite recklessly. I turned away because I just felt horrible for my precious crush, Tommy. Next thing you know it the human was smothering me with Raspberry Jam. I did exactly what Raspberry told me not to do, resist but there I was trying my hardest to resist attack but just like she said it just brought me more pain so I stopped. Then out of nowhere the human picked me and Tommy up and began to mush our faces together. I didn’t like it any less the Tommy. The human finally threw us back on the plate. We were there for about five minutes until the human came back and took the knife and did something different with it. It began to cut us in half. It hurt extremely badly. I hope you never have to feel a cold, tasteless knife come between you and the other side of you. The human left to wash all his tools of torture and a little human considerably smaller than the first came and threw us in a see-through bag with a zipper at the top. Then we were tossed into a bigger brown bag with other food types in it. There was Grape, Cupcake, Juice box, and Potato Chip. I asked them if they knew what was going but they were just as puzzled as I was. I heard a bell ring and then I heard a bunch of little humans screaming and yelling. It took all my might not to tell them shush. The little human that put Tommy and I in the see-through bag opened the bigger brown bag and pulled out Juice Box. We all screamed and tried to hang on to her but she was ripped out of the bag in a glimpse of an eye. Next the little human took me out of the bag, oh no. I realized that it was a little girl and that she was going to eat me and Tommy. She took a big bite out of Tommy and me. Her razor blades of teeth chomped and chewed me to shreds. This is where the digestion process starts. Her saliva was slimy and warm it felt like I was in a Jacuzzi being mashed up. It’s not the greatest feeling in the world. I heard a big gulp and I was sent tumbling down the esophagus. In the fall I was rolled into a ball called a bolus. I had mixed feelings going down the esophagus. The part I liked was I didn’t have to do anything and it felt like I was being massaged. The bad part was that I was actually being massaged but down a long slimy tube. I finally fell into a muscular bag called the stomach and boy it’s a cyclone in there. I was being sloshed around in there and hydrochloric acid and gastric juices were spraying me from every direction. They burned and sizzled all my bread away. Now all these enzymes are breaking me down. It melted me to liquid and I no longer have my bread characteristics. Oh, ouch I’m being squeezed through this little hole and in to the small intestine. As soon as I slid in to the small intestine a voice yelled, “Hurry it up you don’t want to be in here for four hours do you? No, I didn’t think so. Most people don’t.” I guess it was the small intestine because I didn’t see anyone else not even…Tommy. “Oh no, I lost him.” I whispered. Well there was no turning back so I hurried on like it told me to and there were some hair like things in there that took away all my nutrients. It felt like it was a long windy maze of some sort until I reached the end. I squeezed into the colon and immediately I went up like an elevator. As my distance progressed I lost more and more water, nutrients, and minerals so I began to get harder and drier. Yes I’m a solid again. It feels good to be normal except for the fact that I didn’t look the same and I smelt horrible. Finally I’m dropped into the anus. This is my last stop. I yelled, “Bye little girl. This is my last stop in your body of organs. Make sure and tell Tommy I’m ok, okay. “Whoa” I said as I was dropped into a white porcelain bowl. “What is that smell,” I say. Then the water whooshed in circles and I went through some pipes and into a big underground pool party. There were fishes and other people. Actually there was a fish right next to me so I nudged him and asked him, “Hey, how’d you get down here? Fishy?
