         Purposefully choosing to drop off his lab assignment when Moriarty was not in his office, conceited Giant, Hollis turned to leave the lab for more important engagements after depositing the paper in the tray. As he strolled past the bio and chemistry lab stations, Hollis chanted to himself. "Fee fie foe fum, Professor Moriarty is dumb. I buy A+ assignments for his class, because he wouldn't let me bribe his ass!"

        An odd noise from somewhere close by in the lab cause Hollis to stop in his quaking steps. Something small had sneezed in the lab. He was sure of it. "Hello?" Hollis's voice startled Francesca and the giant saw movement behind the Bunsen burner. Pushing it aside, Hollis was surprised. "A human?"

         Odd, why was there a human in the giant scaled science lab? Even odder, this tiny biped looked quite familiar to him. Possibly it could've been somebody's Guinea pig for an experiment. If so however, where was the giant using the human for a lab rat? No such indications were apparent, and Hollis grinned hungrily seeing no name tag or credentials anywhere on the puny creature's person. Without official credentials on DGU grounds, this human had no business on the campus premises.

Before Francesca had a chance to explain the unusual circumstances to the valedictorian, the smart, rich giant had decided her fate. "Hmm, lucky I found a human. I could use some brain food for my speech at the trustees dinner tonight." After needlessly divulging his design to Francesca he snatched her off the countertop. "Been far too long since I've had some juicy Longpig." He scoffed as he brought the handheld brunette to his face, thinking of the Dean's office denying his petition to serve Longpig in the DGU commissary. "Stupid liberal glutton free and Longpig free policies."

         "What?! Hey knock it off! This is an integrated college you can't just eat tiny students!" The preppy tiny girl's fists barely massaged the soft parts of the giant's hairy-knuckled fist.

"Then where's your student ID?" Hollis retorted, holding the tiny woman by the back of her shirt not far from the tip of his nose. Circulation began to leave her arms, the doll shirt tightening as her feet swayed in the air.

        Student ID. Crap, Francesca's giantess student ID was with the rest of her normal Giant garb on the laboratory stool. Trouble was even if the laminated card wasn't currently as big as a surfboard to the cardholder, it would be impossible to prove it was her in the picture with the undeniable size differential. Finding it especially difficult to explain this while clutched between a giant forefinger and thumb, Fran simply blurted "Can't eat me just because I don't have an ID!"

         Hollis had a counterattack speech for this. Dangling her upside down, he spoke defiant and dryly. "There is a little known loophole in the DGU bylaws, subsection G. Technically a human roaming the campus lacking an official ID of faculty, staff, or residential or commuter students is allowed to be devoured by giants. I don't even see a lanyard around your neck let alone a student human ID."

***Finally Hollis plopped her in his opposite balcony-sized palm. Gulping in air she retorted. "First of all that sounds like one of those bullshit "not legal/not illegal" laws." Admittedly, Francesca hadn't yet taken many pre-law classes, and legal jargon wasn't quite a resource of hers. "Second of all... You can't still eat me! I'm not even a human!" Understandably the self-proscribed genius giant looked puzzled at this claim. Francesca explained an abbreviated version of her peculiar situation with Tawana's thesis.

Hollis sighed, not buying a word of this blither. "Resorting to that "I'm a shrunken giant" fallback are we?" he said, caging his cold pink fingers around the human. "Do you really think that'll hoodwink a collegiate giant like me, little snack? You humans have been pulling that one for centuries. First reported case by Giant was..."

Around then, Francesca's brain went blank, processing that she had no proof of her species and this maneating giant did not believe her. When his jaws clenched and the tongue wrapped around her, she had just barely realized her fate was imminent. Francesca was a mass of shrieks and goosebumps. Almost before she was fully aware, Fran, prospective attorney was plunged down the slick waterslide of a throat. With those trapdoor tonsils encasing her, it almost felt like she was swallowed twice. Somehow she felt bigger again on the way down but actually Hollis's esophagus merely constricted and tightened on the descent. Added rhythmic pressure from the unseen heart and lungs, Francesca knew she was falling deeper into the dark abyss and away from any hope of escape back through the mouth. There was indeed an end to the tunnel, but no light in the lowermost pit of the stomach.

Bellyful of human and his purchased homework for this frivolous science class submitted, Hollis departed the science building. Now he could return to his dorm, skip dinner in the commissary. Half an hour later he was approaching trustee dinner in Hildebrand Hall, where he was the keynote speaker he. Straightening his tie and rehearsing his speech his his brain, his stomach churned. "Ohh that human's sitting a little heavy" he muttered. That mouthy stray human was still squirming around in his gut causing ruckus as he entered Hildebrand Hall.

Minutes later, Tawana returned to the lab station with a notebook of Professor Pelletier's. Returning to the workstation Tawana was puzzled to see her beaker and notebook but no test subject. She asked the younger male student who setup across from their station while Tawana was gone. "Excuse me. Have you seen Francesca Nitti? But tiny?" Quickly Tawana became aware of how bizarre and unhinged that sounded. "I mean did you see a human on a counter anywhere?"

"I just got her fifteen minutes ago" said the giant freshman kid. "I didn't see any humans. I would've remembered that."

"Had good news for her." Tawana skimmed her mentor's notes again. "According to these notes on the antidote, it says this prototype's counter-effects take at least two hours and eleven minutes to take. Slow to metabolize." Checking her watch she added "Francesca should be returning to her normal giantess size any second now actually."

Deafening shrieks and sirens came from outside the science building. Concerned Tawana ran outside and asked a passerby. Screams could be heard all through campus from Hildebrand Hall according to this hint student. "Something about Hollis Kimball exploding or growing a second head" they added.
