Hostage

Melody's eyes opened slowly, she could barely see. All she felt was the large bruise on the back of her head. "Ugh... what happened..." She murmered...

She remembered she was walking to her car after work. Sirens could be heard in the distance. She had heard some mad man was on the loose, free from his room in the insanity ward in the near by prison... She jingled her keys and WAM!... lights out.

She looked around, noticing a hose attached to her belly button. She stood up, she felt weak... She tugged on the hose, no good... didn't move. A voice from the corner of the room said "Wakey wakey..."

She turned to see a man, in a stray jacket, holding a pump in his hand. "Sorry to bug ya... but you are my ultimatium today! Doesn't that sound nice?"

She rubbed her head and said "What? Who?"

He smiled, the phone rang. He put the pump on his lap and picked up the phone. "Yessss?.... Well.... Lets see... I want you to clear the way so that I can escape past the border... Oh no? Well... You have 10 minutes until I kill the hostage...." He hung up the phone.

"What?!" she cried out.

"Shhhhh" he said. He stood up and pushed her down on the bed where she had been sleeping. He bound her down by the ankles and wrists.

"What are you talking about?!" Melody said.

"I am going to turn this pump on, and soon, your body will expand and expand... After about 10 minutes, your body will be holding so much pressure that you will probably explode into a million little pieces! Isn't that fun?!"

He turned on the pump, and taped the girl's mouth shut. She squirmed and whined as she felt the air pour into her belly. She could see her stomach grow. Tears streamed down her face.

He put a timer down on the table and said "I hope the police like balloons! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

She kept growing, her belly looked like she was about to drop twins, and it was only after 1 minute! She was worried how big she would get, but the man said 10 minutes, she was hoping that she wouldn't have to find out before she exploded.

2 minutes, she looked like she had a large beach ball under her skin...

3 minutes.... She was even bigger

4 minutes.... Bigger....

5 minutes.... Even bigger!

6 minutes.... Even BIGGER!

On the 7th minute, Her belly was nearly 10 feet in diameter, It could fill a large spa. She whined more and more as the time went by. She felt her time was coming to an end...

8 minutes....

9 minutes...

The man sighed and said "In about 30 seconds, you are going to explode... and I am going to go back to prison... it was nice knowing you."

Her belly was creaking and groaning, it was wedged against the ceiling and was touching 3 walls. She could feel the pressure building up... only 20 seconds...

"FREEZE!" Said a cop who barged in the room, he fired 3 shots into the man, he collapsed to the floor and ran to Melody. He saw her finger pointing to the pump, he clicked it off. The timer stopped... 9:57...

Hours later... they had taken Melody out of the room... but didn't deflate her, the sudden loss of air would cause her to explode. Instead, they cut out a hole for the police to lift her and her tremendous belly out. She was free of that room finally, but still had this gargantuan belly, that could explode at any second. She was being lowered down onto a ambulance bed, when suddenly...

A man's grip on her arm slipped, it was in slow motion, as her belly started to lower to the ground. She heard a few women scream, and the others dive for cover. She winced and closed her eyes, when her belly touched the ground... BAM!

"AHHHH!" she said as she opened her eyes, she was in her bed. She looked around and sighed. "What a nightmare!" She looked ahead and saw her self, she had a large exercise ball under the large shirt she was wearing. She smiled and said "This is the last time I sleep with something inflated under my shirt... damn inflation fetish!"
