Curiosity [2]

    Kushina looked down at the young Hinata, an idea forming in her mind. She thought she could probably help with the kid's dual problems by creating a situation the girl can't escape from, making her confront her fears. A part of Kushina was skeptical of her motives; she just wanted to swallow the girl because it felt good. She... had a hard time denying it. Still, it would be good for Hinata to spend some time with Naruto, even if it's forced. Kushina drew her attention back to Hinata, asking "Hey, I've got an idea."
   
    Kushina turned a bit so that Hinata was closer to her left, and somewhat awkwardly crouched a bit and leaned over to pick up the little Hyuga with a single hand. She doesn't look like it, but she's always been proud of her strength and lifting a kid that age isn't too difficult, even for a normal adult. Gently setting Hinata down on her belly and stabilizing the child with both hands to prevent sliding off, Kushina gave a warm smile as Hinata nervously looked down off the side of her elevated position, unused to being so high above the ground. "It's okay, don't worry, I won't drop ya." Kushina assured to Hinata, who seemed to believe her. The little girl, relieved of her fear of heights for the moment, suddenly realized how close she was to Naruto and froze as she looked down into the green expanse of fabric she was straddling. Kushina giggled for a moment, still adoring how absurdly cute this girl was but decided that she should probably get to the point of all this, both for her sake and Hinata's.

    The woman's firm grip lifted Hinata's body above her extended abdomen as she looked the girl in her eyes for a moment. It took Hinata a second, but just as she realized what was about to happen, Kushina opened her mouth up wider than the girl thought was possible, and pulled her in. Hinata squeaked in terror as she was pushed down head-first into a tight space and tried to fight what was happening, but to no effect. She felt herself slip a bit further in, unable to move her arms but still managed to kick wildly until strong hands gripped her legs and prevented further struggling. Another swallow dragged her further in, and she could only sense her feet outside the dark tunnel for a second before they too were sucked in. Hinata could do nothing but look down into the pit she was heading towards.

    Kushina had already taken all of Hinata into her, but had yet to fully swallow the girl. She held a hand to her expanded throat, to (hopefully) comfort the panicking child before she finished the task. Kushina made sure to do this as quickly as possible so it wouldn't stress for Hinata too much on her trip to meet Naruto, yet couldn't help but savor the experience. One final swallow sent Hinata down to her belly, and Kushina's hand followed the path down until the girl's form disappeared beneath her chest. She felt herself fill up more as Hinata was deposited into her belly and joining her son, making her even bigger as the load she was carrying doubled. Kushina's dress, designed to be loose and form-hiding to allow ease of movement even when Naruto is with her, ended up clinging to her body more than she's used to, accentuating her figure as it tries to compensate for the added space to cover.

     A small burp escapes Kushina, as she instinctively brought a hand up to her chest. With a satisfied sigh, she put her hands to her hips and looked down at her large form, pausing for a second to feel out what might be going on in there. She could feel Hinata in there, right next to the still sleeping Naruto, but she wasn't moving. A confused look begins to show on Kushina's face as she contemplates what's going on, but then feels Hinata loosen up and pass out in her stomach. Kushina couldn't help but laugh embarrassingly at how things turned out; Hinata was so overwhelmed by the situation and being trapped with Naruto that she hyperventilated in a frozen panic and passed out. In her embarassment, she habitually rubbed the back of her head as she decided that her plan may not have been all that successful. "Well, given enough time, she might get used to it." Kushina quietly said to herself, thinking she should get back to her shopping trip while she still has the time. With a sway to her walk, Kushina continues down the street to her destination.
