The many Fattening Tales of R. Vermin.

Chapter 1-Vermin's Birth and First foray into the human world that gained human notice

R. Vermin was never a normal rat, even when he was very young he grew astronomicly, his mother, dead soon after he was born gave little help and R.Vermin had to survive alone, using only his size and wits to survive the many dangers of the underworld of a city. R. Vermin became a monster rat only weeks after he was born, nearly four feet from nose to tail he started hundreds of rumors of monsters as he feed on grime and refuse. R. Vermin had lifted a long time. Many times a rats life, he had lived in the sewers since the mid 80's, and after a year of surviving he was the biggest thing in the underground by far, nearly 15 feet tall at the shoulders and 20 feet long not including his tail, though no human or any other living being had seen him and lived, people occasionally came across the remains of a meal, large dogs mainly, with a few suspiciously human bodies gnawed on, homeless drifters who lived in the sewers. Still, though common they were rarely killed. R. Vermin feared humans. R. Vermin only ate humans when other food got scare. Unfortunately this didn't last very long, Vermin had a very high metabilism, needing to eat half his weight a day. A few little humans here and there once a month, then a couple a week.. And well.. Vermin should have gotten a lot of credit for keeping the homeless away from the better off.. This feeding on the dregs wouldn't last, they moved, they might not be too well off but they are not idiots. Rumors had gotten around about something eating people in the sewers and subway system. R. Vermin had gotten very hungry, Very hungry, not eating in 2 days did that to him. R. Vermin shuddered whenever he heard the metal human snakes rumble through.. But that.. That was the only thing big enough to be a meal to him. Vermin snarled as they passed, on schedule, holding food that had been so scarce. R. Vermin wasn't a brilliant creature, but he was a very smart rat.. And he would have meat tonight.

R.Vermin Squatted in the entrance way to an abandoned switching station, no one had used it for years, at least no human smell ever was in it, it provided a sheltered area for R.Vermin to wait, he had checked it out many times before, and made it his second lair. He waited now for a train, carring food. he heard the rumble and prepared to do something he wasn't sure what. Suddenly it blazed past, knocking Vermin back in a shocked squeal. Vermin nodded dumbly, His prey was fast, faster than him, his reactions would have to be much before it to grab hold. once caught Vermin assumed he could eat through the skin to the food inside, his teeth had never met anything they couldn't break. Vermin snarled, his mind adjusting to the timing of the trains, the Huge rat scuttled into the train tracks a few seconds before the next subway train was due. Vermin braced his thick legs, squating down as if ready to pounce, suddenly the blaring lights hit his eyes and he leaped. a second later his chest was hammered back with tremendous force shocking him. Vermin clung to the train, digging his claws into some strange cracking material as he slowly opened his eyes. His whole body hurt, he felt wind rushing past him, the human train was stronger than him too. Vermin looked into the strange clear material, seeing a human, dressed much more than any he had ever eaten before. A bright blue. Vermin clenched his paws and found the glass shatter beneath him, laying him down on something hard and long, the train began to screech as it slowed down. Vermin looked below him, the blue dressed human was under his chest, pounding at the rats dirty forearms. Vermin snarled as he sat on the human, lowering his tongue to the humans face and slowly licking it, taking of a small pair of glasses and swallowing them absentmindedly as the tongue retracts. Vermin shifts his weight again rolling over onto his side as he hears a crack from below him, Vermin looks at the thrashing human he was laying on, it's lower half isn't moving any more. Vermin opens his mouth and puts it around the human head, the whole body of the human leaps to action, though the lower half is flopping about like a fish. vermin pulls back, dragging the human with him. Vermin squats as best he can, lifting the thrashing humans sides with his paws. Vermin opens his mouth a little wider and pulls the human in with his paws, slowly at first as the humans arms grab and punch at his face, then quicker as the meal's fight dies down, the swallowing is much easier than Vermin thought. Taking only a minute or so to have the humans feet at his incisors. Vermin dosen't know about these humans, some taste good, but a lot of the body has a strange innorganic taste, especially the feet. Vermin tries to rip the feet off but they just pop of easily, leaving another set underneath, a new white color, Vermin repeated the pull and these feet came off leaving a flesh colored feet. Excited Vermin pulled these, nothing, but the pressure caused the human to thrash madly in his throat, and the fully active part in his belly was battering his stomachs walls, Vermin pushed the feet in and swallowed, feeling the lump sink in his belly. Vermin liked it, He liked food, he was too hungry to chew, and it seemed to have no ill effect, swallowing was fun, and easy. Upon later reflection, his drooling, caused by extreme hunger helped slide the human into his mouth and down his throat. The human was strange as it rumbled in his belly, it seemed to continue to fight in his stomach, pushing around. Vermin went back to all fours, his belly swung a little underneath him. Fight or no fight, vermin had never eaten anything that made him really sick. Humans always fed him well. Vermin licked his lips, no longer was the train rushing forward, no longer was he in risk of being trampled by the beast. Vermin Stretched a litle, feeling a bruise on his rear end, turning to look at the cause he found the brake pushed down completely, then snapped off. Vermin didn't understand this very well but it wasn't important now, Vermin was hungry. Vermin sniffed around the one door to this strange head of the human beast. Then winced as he felt a sharp blow in his belly. The human was still kicking around. Vermin licked his chops slowly , the train wasn't too much thicker around than him. he would have to fight through the body to get to the still strong human scent. Vermin pushed his nose through the door easily, huge screams erupted from the car ahead of him, piercing his ears and making him start, smashing his head against the roof, causing a large dent in it before his eyes could scan what lay ahead of him, Humans, Running madly away from little old him, three humans were trampled as the others fled through another door, the humans struggled but one's leg was shattered, letting him only limp, the second one was flat on his back, breathing heavily, the last was dead. It's head cracked open. Vermin put his opened snout around the dead humans face and began to suck, using his left forepaw to push and guide the limp form into his mouth, it was easy as could be but the screaming of the other lame human grated on his rodential nerves. Within a few more seconds the body of human is sloshing around in Vermin's belly. The Rodents eyes stare furiously at the limping man, clawing weakly at the door. Vermin shambles forward, struggling to break away the various seats and obstructions of an isle not made for a rat of his side, Vermin’s movements are slow but the back door seems slower, the lame human screams once as he turns, seeing nothing but the wide opened jaws of the Rodent, a second later they come down, huge incisors one eachside of the neck. Vermin's furious charge has unintentionall trampled the prone human, even now the huge rats left rear leg is pressing down on the poor mans back, making him sputter pathetically. Vermin begins to salivate furiously as he shambles backward, dragging the lame human behind him by the head, the humans attempts to pull back are no match for the massive muscles honed from living in the sewers of Vermin. Vermin drags the human back to the begining of the car and spins his head, spitting out the head and flinging the human against the wall with enough force to tip the Subway car for a moment. The human is slumped against the wall, his head shaking as the blurry form of the Rat engulfs it. The stunned human hardly struggles as the rat bites into his chest, flipping his hindquaters up a little and opening his mouth fully, swallowing a little more, after three repitions the human has shaken off the stun and twists and turns, his legs flailing about madly outside the rats mouth. Vermin closes his eyes and contines to flip up the remaining human and bolt down another six inches or so. A few more times, the kicking has slowed down, four more times and the lame humans forelegs hang limply. Vermin shakes his head one last time before he gulps down the remaining legs, accidently, gulping the shoes two, Vermin tries to gag but he ate to fast and the human, shoes and all tumble into his stomach with a muffled thud. Vermin licks his lips, turning around to the trampled human, now dead. Vermin quickly bends over and bits the side of the human, flips it around and quickly swallows the body down head first. Vermin has gotten good at eating dead humans, very easy, lots of food, lots of nice fat to digest. Vermin looks around, blood stains litter the subway car. Vermins belly is now distinctly visible under his chest, swollen a little from the massive meal. Vermin, like most rats is known to gorge if possible. He sniffs at the door the lame human was struggling to open, it opens easily when Vermin hammers his head against it. It creak open the screaches as it is rammed foward and trambled under Vermins body as he squeezes through, making the door much bigger. Vermin barges his way into the next car without caring for caution, a tangy fresh smell is in his powerful nostrils. Prey. Fear. Vermin Pokes his head through the battered car, looking around, no humans running, another door out the back, two bodies are stomped and trampled to death, one halfway in a seat, the other on it's belly clutching the far doorknob. Vermin shambled foward, yanking the body from the seat and fliping it into his mouth, swallowing the body while he continued to move foward, quickly reaching the clutching human. It's head was already snapped around unnaturally, it's back had countless footsteps on it and the feet, were already in Vermins mouth, being slurped up easily by the well practiced tongue and mouth. Vermin liked this thing, humans kept getting killed, and he was right to recycle them. The strong survive, he survived, and the faster humans that ran would too.. Likely. But these lame and dead ones would never make it, and they tasted nearly as good.... The first human he ate still feels like it is vibrating a little in his belly. Vermin stretched his jwas absenstmindedly, no longer even needing to think about the task of swallowing, it came as natural as breathing once he got it down. Vermin struggled to move, his belly was greatly swollen having ate nearly his own weight, his belly is sagging grossly, scraping along the ground and thretening to push out past his pawline laterally too. Vermin's normally Rapid movements had slowed into a stupor. Vermin moved foward, stretches his arms and pulling himself foward while kicking with his hind legs, sleeping in a human contraption was still unnatural. Vermin turned his head and bit through the side of the train, it was slow work to make an opening big enough for his bloated body to squeeze through. Eventually he tumbled out into the tunnel, only to see a human comming toward the back of the train, shouting "Marci! Marci! Were are you marci!" The human ran into the back of the subway and was moving foward, Vermin watched through the windows as he moved to the end of the train were the human went in, waiting in ambush, long tail twitching, He wasn't that hungry but hunting was fun, his ears srtained to hear the voice as it moved further up the train, then stopped, sobbing loudly. Vermins whole body twitched in expectation. He wasn't clear on the concept of grief but knew that the human would eventurally come out.. And be his to play with. Vermin suddenly became aware of his heartbeat, loud and fast, enough to give him away. Vermin tried to calm down but he heard the steps on the metal get closer. Vermin amost bit his lip in keeping from lunging and devouring one more meal. Vermin's eyes squinted as the crying man came waling out slowly. The huge Rats tensed legs thrusted up and foward, somehow, launching the beast into the air, if only for a moment, Vermin lands with a deep thud, ontop of the crying man, nearly crushing him to death instantly, only the softer belly ontop of the man saved him from insant death beneath the rat. Vermin groaned, feeling the man struggling under his body, rubbing his belly vigorously, almost putting Vermin to sleep. Vermin closes his eyes and stretches, waiting a few minutes till the struggling underneath his gut ceases for the most part. Vermin slowly gets up and shambles foward, looking over his shoulder he sees nothing where he laid on the human. The rat can't quite understand what happened, Vermin was sure there was something under him, he felt it move. Vermin shifts his wait and bend his head to look under him, He nearly jumps off the ground, the human is stuck to his quivering belly, hardly moving, stuck to him by the hard working vermins putrid sweat, it's eyes looking into his as the Rat fidgets a little. his left rear leg thumping the ground. Vermin tried to think, not being the brightest of rats he needs a minute or so, staring into the humans eyes, his tongue licking it's face, tasting it.Vermin shrugs a little, he is quite full now, but a meal has joined him on the wrong side of the belly. Vermin trots a few steps, expecting to see the human fall off, but it's stuck fast, and twitching itself a little. Vermin nods, It'll stay till he gets to his den, then maybe he'll eat it. or just play around if his belly doesn't feel like stretching any more. Vermin likes to play. .Vermin would play a lot with this human, weeks as it turned out while he digested his meal... and then... sweaty human met the insides of the belly.

The authorities found the wrecked train, bloodstained and crunched, up, the insides of the train pushed around as if some huge snake had slithered through, no bodies were found and a strange hole in the middle of the train that was apparently bitten through, Though the authorites found no bodies fevered tales of some huge demon from hell consuming them was spouted by survivers, nut cases, and quickly shoved aside and locked up in a mental institution. The official report simply called it a derailment, but those in the know suspected something far more grisly.....

Chapter 2- Vermin comes up for his visit to the upperworld. 20 ft Vermin
Vermin was a large rat, Vermin was a large animal too, He was growing fast, Vermin had lived in the sewers and subways of the city, eating anything that came across him. Vermin loved carrion when he was young, no hunting, just lumber up and eat, no animal dared attack him, even in a nearly infant stage vermin was ten feet tall. Vermin had been starving for a while till he found out that even groups of humans moving about were fair game for him to swallow and digest. Till then he has been cautious, only attacking live humans when alone, and in shabby clothing, fearing some divine reprisal should he make himself known to well. Vermin had evolved from that. He was certainly tough enough to ambush the occasional group of humans who came into his terriory, not smart enough to sniff the walls for his marks they came. ussually in groups of three and four, sometimes wearing uniforms, sometimes carring other food(Which Vermin really liked, and might let a group run away if they had brought buckets of sweets. Vermin had also caught many small groups of adolescent humans putting fire in their mouths and spitting smoke, though Vermin was loath to attack these magic humans at first he soon got the nerve up and bit into one as it was leaveing, dragging it away from it's fellows and devouring it with great joy, the young humans were the best tasteing, and the fire magic really wasn't much at all. Vermin lived in the sewers like this for a long time in his mind, waiting until the humans stopped comming except in huge mobs, Vermin was strong, but thirty humans in a group, all on gaurd still put him ill at ease. Vermin was very hungry, and figured the humans were cautious because he had been scarfing so many down here, he needed a new feeding ground to let this become repopulated. Vermin knew humans lived above him normally. Vermin would have to look and feed in their own world. a bright place where he would be under constant scruitiny and danger, but food was all important for a rat like him. Vermin was roughly 20 feet tall now, his body was well rounded. Luckily the Manholes in this city were huge, big enough for him, if he squished and squirmed. Vermin decided one day, he hadn't eaten hte last to slowly go up, moving up the manholes shaft, kicking away the lader for more room to squeeze, it took him nearly an hour before his huge muzzle pushed up the manhole cover and peered out. At a dump. Vermin licked his lips. Good food, no hunting. Vermin scurried out of the hole as best he could, squating down and looking around the dump, nearly empty, hardly a bite of food for a rat his size. Vermin cocked his head a little as he looked at a strange metal discard, he had seen it before, humans ate with them, and under it was another, much bigger than what humans used. Almost as if made for him. One for pokeing, the other for slicing. Vermin picked them both up and smiled. He could kill and swallow well enough, but these devices seemed a great new toy to play with, and it kept his fond dreams of dumps intact after the picked clean junkheap he had come up into. Vermin shaked his body, his well rounded form stretching from the cramped confines of the sewer exit. Vermin shambled off, following the tangy smell of humans into a suburban area. the city was immense, far more than he thought, he wanted to see the smaller buildings. Vermin walked in the brush, taking to the dark streets when he could, it was late night before he reached to suburbs. Vermin was hungry, his new toys held in his tail as he walked, Vermin came upon a large house that smelled strongly of sweet rich food, even if empty of humans vermin though he could get a little something to slake his appetite. Vermin slowly opened a sliding glass door, the pushing through, shattered it completely, Vermin nearly howled in agony, but kept his eyes aleart. A female human had seen him and ran. Vermin got up onto his hind legs and put the utensils in his forepaw as he staggered forward, hunched over in the high ceilinged chamber, this building was a mansion by human terms, and it still did not fit him. Vermin stretched his head after the fleeing human, watching it stay in the next room, and grab a device from the table. Vermin began to hurry his pushing through the mansion after her, hoping some horrible weapon was not in her paws. Vermin snarled loudly, licking his tonuge out, gently stokeing her face as she speaks words into the Device "Exterminators!!! I have A big Rat problem! A huge one! Get the swat team out here. NOW I'll pay any price. How many Rats? Only one I hope." She drops the phone as she feels the wet tongue lick her face, she back up against the wall. seeing no easy escape but through the windows, but they are not openable from this side so she'll have too. She looks back, the rat has broken through the doorway, rubble at it's feet it is licking it's lips as it slowly gets up to a high crouching position. Vermin slowly lifts his uttensil and takes a step forward, shaking the room and a few bits or rubble from the ceilling. Vermin lifts the utensils high, the woman leaps to the window and begins to struggle to get through, Vermin smiles, drops his knife and for and lunges at her rear,bitting both her legs in one mouthful, quickly vermin flips his head up, jaws open, bitting up to the womans stomach. The woman fights with a vengance, pulling hard on his chin fur and her legs kicking up inside his mouth. Vermin stops a moment, holding his fighting meal while he squats down into a sitting position, looking down on his muzzle at the humans hands, a shiney thing is one on off them a brilliant gold color that he had never seen before. While the arms were thrashing he couldn't get a good look though. Vermin opened his mouth, pushing up while using his forepaws to push the head into his open muzzle before clamping down on the woman without using his teeth. the arms are still out of his mouth but the pressure from the rats jaws is slowing the mad thrashing, though inside his mouth is still being kicked very hard. Vermin was a strong rat, and it wasn't that bad, much better to watch the glittering gold near his eye, eventually the arm seemed to stop moving, looking a little pale of color as if no blood had reached it. Vermin smiled, his paws deliciately pulling on the gold, Pop, it came off. Vermin held the tiny piece of gold in his paw as he pushed his tongue out to corral the arms into his mouth. getting the whole woman in his mouth before swallowing her in one fluid motion. Vermin groaned a little as he felt his belly wiggle and fight, these humans weren't ones to give up easy. Vermin liked to pay attention to the struggles normally but he was to interested with the gold. Knowing it wouldn't fit on his thick body he wanted to have it somewhere on his body. Vermin stretched his tail then figured out it would probally fit on the tip of his tail. vermin twisted his long tail around and fit the gold around the tip as far as it would go. then pressed a little and it snaped on, a little tight but vermin did not want to lose his price, humans were easy, but this strange artifact was worth ten fat humans langusishing in his belly. Finally vermin began to feel the powerful kicks against his stomach subside. Vermin licked his chops and made a loud belch, turning around, and shambling into the bigger room he came from. Might as well go back underground and find more. Vermin perked his ears up, more voices. Wow.. Why? everyone must have heard the female scream as he ate her. He would think they would run and hide, not investigate. Vermin did his best to hide himself, not to effectivly but it might give him a moment, even at his size. Humans tended to be frozen in place for a few moments at the shere size of him. Vermin knew he was big, Vermin liked it. Vermin was dominate now. And he sensed more prey entering the huge house, soon verified by voices "Exterminators, Miss, The door was open? Miss." Vermin listened closley, they were talking, vermin heard three voices, they seperated, one moved up, one was moving around the perimeter of the house, and one was tasty enough to walk slowly toward him. Vermin licked his chops, and acidently twisted his tail out for a moment, showing the tip to the closing human. Vermin nearly bit his tongue off in anger, being such a uncontroled vermin to show his prey that he was here, his tail was back but the damage was done. Vermin nearly jumped as he heard the human laugh. "Hey boys we got packrats, big ones, look like footers, we probably should pick up some shotguns after we find the nest. The human was closing quickly. Vermins body shook in happiness. The human moved through the doorway into the room and stood stuned at the wreckage, slowly turning his jaw droped at the enormous rat towering above him, licking it's lips. Vermins long tail quickly coiled around the human, first the mouth, then the belly, and a final coil around the feet, lifting the human from the air in the same motion. The human began to fight furiously now, scratching and trying to pull off the wet tail as it constricted him. Vermins sewer life had served him again, making his body hard to grasp. The human shook it's head as much as it could, as if it wanted to scream, Vermins coiled tail sqeezed tighter as it lifted him. The humans eyes met vermins as the Rats muzzle slowly opened, descending on him as he was lifted to it. Saliva driped from the black lips and huge incsiors as they stretched wider in a slow motion. Vermin sloshed his tonuge around as he moved his paws to play with the human, removing his nasty looking shoes and the goggles covering the humans eyes. After preening the human in his tail he stretched his tail and lowered his mouth enough to fit the human in his mouth entirely, the human wiggling like a worm in his tail was looking down his throat, greated with the screams of the last meal begging for help, unable to make a sound because of the tail around his mouth he was forced to just lay belly down on the tongue as It curled up behind him, between his legs as he felt the tail coil uncurl. The jaws came down, the wicked yellow teeth mashing together, but not fully, letting a little light in as the tail slowly unwound from his belly, leaving his arms fully free to struggle at removing the last coil, which removed itself as the whole mouth begain to movev, a ploding bouncing as if the beast was walking. Vermin had the human in his mouth and took a few steps to make sure no one was following ht human, secure for the moment vermin rolled his tongue back and swallowed in one movment, sending the exterminator on a quick trip down his throat to land in his gut with the slowly digesting woman. Vermins gastric juices had been diluted from a huge drink at the local resivor before he came. Even in his belly drowning was a very real threat. Vermin trotted happily out the way he came originally, feeling the sloshing in his belly wave as he walked. Vermin sniffed his way to the vecinity of the patrolling human. It's footsteps, it's smell, and at last it's voice introduced him to his meal. The man screamed shrilly "Hey, Shotguns cost money, we can just chop em apart and... Hey what about the girl that hired us, Hey you. Vermin put his paw on his nose and rose to his hind legs, finnally able to stand fully upright he waits at the corner of the house, listening to the human and some strange spraying sound coming from the same area. Vermin strokes his wobbling belly with one paw as he picks up his fork with the other. Vermin grins happily, buck teeth still dripping saliva. Vermin stops stroking his belly after a moment, hearing the footsteps, dinner must be within ten feet, and closing slowly. Vermin liked ambush. Ambush was fun, pure terror had a great taste to his rodential tastebuds. Vermin waited a moment, the human walked by, looking away from him, not even giving Vermin the pleasure of terror in it's eyes, Vermin waited. The damn human just stood their and lit a cigarette, in the shadow of the huge rat. Either exceptional cool, or fearless, or maybe just stupid, Vermin favored the last option for this human. Vermin waited a minute. The human was still smoking, and the smell was begining to get to Vermin, obviously this human needed a little prodding to show the proper fear. Vermin make a low rumbling growl from his belly, still high above the human. The cigarette human turns to face him, his mouth drops open and the cigarette falls out. He stares up at the opening jaws, the tongue licking the lips slowly, the eyes stareing at him, almost as if letting him get the first move. The human just stands and stares at the massive rat. Vermin takes a few steps foward, the humans stands between the slightly bowlegged stance, it's hair rubbing against the soft furred squirming belly, again vermin waits for some effect. As the belly rubs against it's face the human finally moves. Turning and running, the human takes four steps before the long rat tail of Vermin snaps around and trips him, causing the human to fall flat on his face. Vermin takes one large step forward, planting his left foot in the middle of the humans back, applying just enough pressure to keep the human on the ground, legs and arms flailing around. Vermin smiled happily as he licked his lips and put more weight on the human, digging his claws into it's back. Ahh Yes, the human is struggling now, Vermin sits down and lifts his foot up, the human still impaled on his claws. Vermin licks the human on his foot slowly, covering the whole body in saliva, it twists and turns but the rodents clenched claws remain imbeded. The human screams as he see's the Rodents mouth Open, and it start to put it's foot inside it's slavering muzzle. The human pounds on the palate of the monster rat as the claws unhook and the foot is pulled out by itself through the thick lips with a slurp. The human made one final scream as the tonuge swallowed and quickly dumped him into the gut with the other meals. Vermin smiled widely, took a while, but the human was scared to death. Vermin shakes his body a little as he walks, mixing his belly's contents around for quicker digestion. Vermin circles the house, the human is still on the top level. Vermin can't reach him, and smartly realizes that climbing this buidling might make it tumble down on him.. Though humans weren't a threat their homes were made of far harder materials. Vermin squated by the door he made, hopefull that the last little body would come down and join it's fellows wallowing in his wet stomach. A light rain started and got Vermin’s attention. Vermin didn't mind the rain, but his feet felt the ground beneath him, it would be Muddy, hard to hunt on, but also hard for prey to escape his fangs. Vermin twisted his tail hungrily behind him. Thrashing in the new mud dirtying his fur. Vermin had focused his ears, not on voices but footsteps. Vermin heard the man slowly move down to the first floor. Vermin would have moved in and attacked through the building, but he wasn't to thrilled about the footing. Vermin would lose a lot of pride is he slipped and landing sprawled out on his belly, not to mention making him a sitting duck. Vermin would wait, humans seemed to like to feed him. They seemed to come and ask. "Please Mr. Vermin, Swallow me down, I want to help you get nice and fat." For this Vermin loved humans. The human took a while to meet him, but when he came to see Vermin crunched down in the hold he had made, smiling at him his scream must have brought returning sounds of honking and screaming. Vermin growled furiously, this human had alerted his kind to form a mob, he had betrayed Vermin. Vermin nearly shook in anger, then shook visibly as he plowed through the muddy living room in pursuit of the now fleeing human a moment later the human learned the grim lesson about running on Mud and landed on his belly as Vermin continued to struggle foward, headless of the building falling down around him. Vermin digs his head in snapping his jaws closed, catching the fleeing humans shirt in his fang, a inch further an the man would have been killed, but now he is lifted by his shirt as vermin withdraws his head, staring down at the struggling human hanging from his teeth. Vermin shuffles backward, swinging the human hanging from his teeth. A few moments later the whole mansion comes collapsing down, leaving vermin, his next meal, and his fat belly alone on the street, at least for this moment. Vermin squats down, swiveling his head to get a good look around, after a few seconds he feels the human patting on his lower jaw. Finally wanting to be eaten. But Vermin knows he doesn’t have time to enjoy himself, the rest of the race will be attacking him. But vermin knows areas no human does, then he can eat in peace. Play around a little, feed his belly. Have take out food. Vermin turns up his tail and shambles off, into the darkness. Leaving little to give hints at the fate of the four people, just a few toughs of fur and some lose saliva.

Chapter 2 part b
Vermin was trotting home, managing to squeeze back the way he came, compressing his belly tightly against his chest. Vermin feels his belly shimmy as he backs down, expelling a massive "urp" and spitting the human up through the man hole, the human falls back down and lands on vermin’s tongue, nearly plunging strait down his throat, only a desperate grasp at the uvula , Causing vermin to jerk his head back, hitting the side of the manhole, and coughing up the human till it rest horrizontally between the tips of vermin’s lips, flapping around with it's middle being soaked by rat spittle. Vermin shakes a little as he finishes his decent, his stomach swagger being greatly reduced, the air took up a lot of space, now it will most efficiently digest and let him slide around without such a gargantuan gut... Or at least not as bulky. Vermin lands in the sewer, rear end hitting the main through , sending waves of sewage down the line and splashing all over the huge rodent that splashed down. Vermin twitches his nose excitedly, he is home, safe from humans. This is his turf. Vermin feels the human in his mouth, limp, hardly kicking at all any more. it too is soaked with the tantalizing odor of sewage, Vermins drink and food when he was a baby. Vermin Smugly looks around, sniffing his trail, or more accurately the stank odor of his home, it might be a new sewer passage for him but in the depths he can tell his smell from many miles away, a homing instinct he always had. Vermin slams his tail once into the sewage, happily playing as he swings his head. Vermin's celebration on victory in the human world quickly subsides as the rat decides it will be much better to celebrate in his den, his inner den, the whole underworld is his but he has preferences for certain area, and one he knows.. His favorite home, were he brought back countless hobo bones to make his bed, they cracked and became soft from chewing. and compressing.. Oh the memories. Vermin chids himself for being slow. Human voices break into his ears, lots of them. Vermin has no wish to confront a mob.. Not when so fat and hampered. Vermin begins sloshing along, aided by the sewage he nearly slides along, unerringly navigating the countless pipes as the sounds of humans fade into nothing. Vermins furry haunches scrape against the sides as the tunnels get thinner, vermin has grown a lot since he started eating, and unfortunately his den hasn't. Vermin makes a note of this and plans to have one last sleep in his hole, then go out for new digs. Vermin pops through a tight tunnel, tumbling into his sleeping den. Horribly, The odor would instantly put most people out. Vermin is not a clean rat, his hole is filled with garbage, and refuse. Apparently not even caring enough dispose of excrement in the nearby sewage, it is heaped in a pile in one corner, attracting many flies. Vermin rears back , in a semi upright stance the rodent spits the human into the pile of trash and refuses, sending a cloud of junk into the air for a moment. The human sputters and fights to the top of the pile of filth, looking into the eyes of the huge rat, the hungry eyes.
