Jenny looks at Randall and Tomas for a minute.
"What are you doing to her?"
Randall looks over a Megan for a minute "I am improving her for one of my... 'Clients'. He made a rather special order, that thanks to your work I am able to fill. You were Such a good assistant..." Randall sighs.
"What do you mean, I was a good assistant?!" Jenny asks as she feels the panic start to build.
"I am afraid I can't have assistants that break the rules... So I have to let you go."
Jenny looks startled for a second, then with a sigh of relief "Your firing me?"
Randall smiles "In a way..."
"In a waa..." Jenny starts to ask, but she didn't notice Tomas slip away. He came up behind her and pressed a damp rag over her mouth and nose. The last thing she remembers as she slipped into darkness was Randall's laughing.

Jenny woke up slowly. Her head was killing her, her throat was raw with a foul taste in her mouth, her whole body hurt, and she had an uncomfortable tightness in her vagina and stomach. Slowly she opened her eyes and saw only pitch black. Off to one side she could hear some faint, muffled sobs. She tried to shake her head to clear away the lingering drowsiness but found that she was securely tied in place. With a start she remembered the events leading up to her loss of consciousness and realized that she must be in the same state as poor Megan had been when she found her.
She had no way to track time, but it felt like days before the door opened again. During that time the muffled sobs from across the room grew quieter and quieter until they finally stopped. She was aware of the increasingly tightness of her stomach until she woke up on what she assumed was the second day. Supprisingly as she woke up she didnt feel quite as tight and as the day drew on she could swear she felt her stomach shrinking again.
As the lights finally came on she was able to make out Megan still strapped down to the table on the other side of the room. Megan now looked like she was in a drugged stupor, but other than the IVs and tubes she was back to normal, with no signs of pregnant stomach she had before. She glanced down as much as she could and around the tube stuck in her mouth she could just make out a small bulge still in her stomach.
Randall and Tomas stepped through the open door and into the room. First they walked over to where Megan was strapped down and tried to rouse her. After a minute Tomas smiled. "She is right on schedule Doctor" he ran his hand over the now flat stomach and Megan shivered with apparent delight "It appears she absorbed it all she is ready for phase two when ever you want to start."
"Excel1ent" Randall replied "We will start her on Phase Two right after lunch." He then glanced over at Jenny "Looks like Jenny is proceeding good as well. She should be ready for Phase Two in a day or so."
Tomas nodded "I will go prepare for the next Phase and meet you back here at One O'clock then Doctor."
Tomas walked off while Randall continued to start at Jenny. Slowly he walked over and looked at her for a minute. "It's a shame you couldn't stay out of here Jenny. I could have used your help for a while longer before I would have had to do this to you. What a waste..." He sighed again and walked out turning the lights off and closing the door behind him.
