10 Uhh.... What are you doing? (1/2)

After what felt like hours the large manta suddenly felt a warm feeling spreading out from his stomach slowly healing his internal injuries. Feeling the warmth easing the pain and discomfort in his body he closed his eyes and fell unconscious once again.

Some time later once his body finally reached a more stable condition the large manta started to wake up. As he opened his big eyes the first thing he saw was the flustered little crab. She would pick up a small beast core looking heartbroken and after what looked like an internal dilemma she would throw it into his open mouth before picking up another.

When the little crab noticed the manta had woken up her eyes showed a glint of happiness before she quickly hid it.

”Little gold what happened?” He said, still slightly dazed.

”We got eaten!” She instantly responded.

When he heard what she said he was somewhat confused as he was still slightly dazed from having just woken up, but once his mind started to clear up he remembered what happened!

When he looked around he found that they were inside an immense enclosed space with pink sticky walls, there was also many trash and decomposing body parts of different creatures scattered all over.

Letting out a deep sigh he turned back towards the little crab as his mind started to turn thinking of a plan however, he noticed something strange sitting beside her. There was the skull pot full of sand she usually kept but there was a dug up hole in the middle showing large amounts of beast cores that were hidden on the bottom!

”Hey little gold, where did you get so many beast cores? I very vividly remember you always instantly eating your half when you got it, so where did these come from??” He asked, squinting his eyes.

Startled, the little golden crab looked back and noticed the still uncovered stash and by taking control of the sand she quickly covered up the hole acting as if nothing happened.

”Hey little gold did you stash away some of the cores you picked up before we split them between us?” He asked once again seeing as she didn't reply.

Turning her head to the side the little crab started looking around completely avoiding eye contact! If she knew how to whistle that is probably what she would be doing!

”Signs you know what, since it saved my life let's just leave it as it is.”

'There are much more important things to worry about now, like the fact we are inside a huge beast's stomach! If we don't find a way out of here we are probably going to end up like one of those dissolving limbs!'

”Come on, let's go see if we can find an exit” The large manta floated down low to the ground to which the small crab responded by quickly jumping up onto his back.

The duo made their way around the giant stomach looking carefully for any potential exits but they only found one large opening which was the entrance they had come from. Unfortunately every time it opened, the current that came through was too powerful! There was no way to go through it!

”Little gold don't worry, even if there are no exists, we can just make our own! Hehehehe” the large manta said as he let out an evil laugh

Moving up close to the wall he gathered up his mana and then quickly attacked.

”MANTAAA! RAAYYYYY!”
