“Well, dridders are like nagas from the waist up, but have this weird spidery body instead of a proper tail like mine. Dridders and nagas don’t like each other very much, but this one had a particular hatred of my kind. I got caught in her web, shrunken down and swallowed like a human,” Soinna said. She glanced down at the woman, her face appearing sheepish. “Er, no offense.” The naga took a moment to compose herself after her faux pas.

“Um, anyway, I take it you’re not from Felarya then. No cars where I’m from,” Soinna said, eager to move on. “I don’t suppose it matters much, we’re both not from here at any rate. I could use some company while trying to figure this place out. Want to go exploring a bit miss…er, what did you say your name was?”

"Actually, I didn't say. My name is Sarah McNeil. Anyway, I just got here, so I don't mind exploring with you." Sarah said, looking up at Soinna. "Might be kind of hard to keep up with you, though, considering our size differences." she said with a bit of a chuckle.

“Good to meet you Sara, and thanks” Soinna said. “Don’t worry about keeping up, that’s fixed easily enough.” Soinna added, smiling at the little human. She gently picked her up, and held her in one hand. Using her other hand, Soinna took a pinch of her own hair and snugly, but not tightly tied it around Sara’s waist. “Just so you don’t get hurt if you fall,” Soinna said, as she set Sara up onto her shoulder, right in front of her long black hair. “So, where did you want to see first? Personally, I’m itching to look into that huge city over there.” Soinna waved a hand towards the celestial city.

"Sure! That sounds like fun!" Sarah said with a smile, kicking her legs idly as she sat on Sionna's shoulder. At first she had been a bit afraid of Sionna when she first saw her, but now that she got to know her a little better, she didn't seem like a bad person.

Paprika took Cindy by the hand and started to run through the city, trying to start from the outside and work her way in. Unlike Cindy, she didn't have till eternity to get to see all of this place, so she wanted to tour as much as possible. As they passed by the gate, she noticed a familiar face towering above the crowds.

"Oh! Hey, look, it's that naga from earlier."

She ran up to Sionna. "Hey, we found what we wanted. Found anything cool yet? If you need anything, it seems that an Angel is always around to help you out. You can really do what you want. What do you want to do?"

Cindy smilied looking up happily at soina "um i don't like talking like this"she says sheepishly and using the power that the angel had given her began to grow untill she was eye leval with soinna "wow this perspective sure is different"she says happily bendng down to pickpaprika up as she gazed happily at soina "sorry anyway this angel gave me the power to grow or shrink when i choose and i figured at this size it would be easier to talk to you"

“Hold on tight now,” Soinna said, getting up from her lounging position and rising to her full imposing height. She checked for a moment to make sure Sara had not fallen off her shoulder. Seeing she was still there, Soinna began slithering toward the city.

“Well, if it isn’t the two cat people from before,” Soinna said as she saw Cindy and Paprika. She continued to slither toward the city. “You were the tasty one, right?” She asked, looking at Paprika. “I can talk to you just fine, no matter your size. Anyway, Sara and I were going to that city to do a bit of exploring. You two want to come?”

Even as she asked, she came to a stop before the immense entrance to the city, a grand arch of gold and marble. Most of the people around, pred, prey, and angel alike were smaller, but Soinna wasn’t ready to give up her size just yet. She found her height to be comforting in this new environment. The smaller people politely made way for her. Looking around in awe, Soinna slowly slithered underneath the huge, ornate arch. All around her were the buildings of the city, wrought in the finest materials and with great skill. Up ahead, there was a large building that dwarfed even Soinna. It appeared like a hall of some kind.

"Sure, this size is neat." said Paprika, more excited by the height than frightened. "And I don't think you can reallly squish anyone in heaven, no more than you can kill them by digesting them."

She looked at the hall.

"Okay...let me see. The food hall...er, is the word cafeteria?, is to our right...and the houses are to our left. I wonder what this place is?"

"hmmm"Cindy says thinking happily,while she simply stared at the hall "i have no idea what it is i'll ask"she says stopping a passing angel so she could talk to her "miss angel do you what the building is i mean the hall just ahead of us"

"sure,its the hall of wonders"the angel replies politely

"and whats inside it?"

"well inside are places that you like locoations excluding the stomach so you could go whereever you wanted without leaving the safety of heaven!"

"cool so do you guys anna go in"Cindy says talking mostly to paprika.

"Hmm." said Paprika. "Well, couldn't hurt. Seems like an interesting idea." She nudged Cindy, urging her to go forwards. "As far as stomachs go, we have enough here to explore." she said, giggling.

Cindy smiled as she began to walk towards the hall giggling "well a kichen might be next i could make you into a sandwhich or soup or maybe even a stew" she says thoughtfully "i know how does this sound next time where gonna eat each other how about we get a cook book then we can cook each other before eating"

"A...cook book?" said Paprika. "Oh! Like a...um...recipe book! I used to have one of those...but it got digested. I really missed it, it was really neat. I guess I can get another one here. I'm considered to be a find chef anyways." she said proudly.

"Where does big-naga lady and little human lady want to go though? Maybe the big naga would like to eat us. We should really offer ourselves to be polite."

"hmm good idea parika"Cindy says turning back around and walking over to soinna,she placed paprika down on the ground before shrinking down to paprika's size smiling up at soinna she waved at her happily "hey miss me and paprika where wondering wether you'd like to eat us though i believe i would like to be eaten as a snack like a sandwhich or in a stew or something"

"We could both be a sandwhich!" said Paprika excitedly. Some Angels passing by gave them odd glances. The human with the naga seemed confused too.

"Does the human want to be eaten?" she asked. "Or does she want to eat one of us? Cindy has got this shrinking and growing stuff pretty together."

Sarah currently had an extremely confused look on her face as the two nekos talked about being sandwiches, and asking her if she wanted to be eaten or eat them. "...Um...why exactly are you talking about eating each other? Does...that arouse you or something?" She then cleared her throat and said, "Anyway, my name's Sarah. Pleasure to meet you both."
