As you walk along a boardwalk along the shore, you tug down at the balloon, feeling it rise and pull back each time. You smile and remember how happy you were when you had a balloon as a kid. The bright splash of playful color tied and captured for your explicit pleasure. Balloons were the epitome of a wonderful life. They were full and near to bursting with an energy to wander the world and share their playful and comic shape and color.
Sometime, you wished you could enjoy that kind of life. Carefree and just there to bring happiness to all those around you.
You slow and finally stop, leaning against the wooden railing. Your thoughts wander themselves as you stare out at the glistening sea. The sun is setting and golden light dances over the waves.
It seems like forever as you stare out, lost in thought, at that moment, time feels frozen for you to enjoy this wonderful moment. A fist of gas rumbles up from your stomach and you let out a low belch. A feeling of bloatedness as come slowly over you. Something you must have eaten, you think.
Your timeless moment gone, you turn to explore the rest of the island. You try to tug the pink bunny balloon, but it gone! While the string is still tied to you, there is no sign of what happened to the balloon. The feeling of bloatedness keeps increasing, and soon becomes uncomfortable. You pat and rub your stomach and look down in shock. It's much larger than you remember it. In fact, it's round and soft to the touch.
Quickly pulling up your shirt you see that your belly is white in the center and fades to a bright pink to the sides. Not only that, your belly looks to be made from latex, like the balloon that's vanished! You poke and rub your belly and it reacts just like a balloon would.
Things suddenly are looking to take a strange turn...
