Megan Holmes is one of many scientific experts involved in directing inquiry and managing experiments at a nameless top-secret research facility, managed by the Tyrellium pharmaceutical company and financed by the U.S. government. Megan has been charged with taking care of a wide variety of critically endangered, but extremely dangerous species, intentionally hidden from public knowledge for various reasons. Most of the fauna and flora that Megan tends to are exiled to her remote facility due to their carnivorous, voracious diets. Many of the creatures and plants are infamously known to swallow their prey whole, slowly digesting them alive. Megan is provided a steady stream of young and ambitious female interns to feed these creatures with, though the interns think they are simply getting a ground-breaking chance at first-hand experience at a prestigious research facility. Megan sometimes feels bad for the numerous women devoured by the creatures she manages, but she rationalizes that it is all part of the circle of life, that all of the specimens she cares for are critically endangered, and that many of the rare compounds created by these creatures could provide for numerous scientific breakthroughs. Megan has recently been focusing in on a promising rare plant she has cultivated from a seed. The plant grew and grew, into it resembled a massive, expandable fleshy flower over a tight central bulb, with a green-skinned plant-girl sprouting out of the middle of the flower. However, where this plant-girl's legs should lead, instead falls away to a tight fleshy pit full of sweet-smelling, but weak digestive acids. The alraune plant, as it was known, soon required a steady diet of meat to keep it growing. Eventually, Megan started feeding the alraune, named Flora, live female interns, which the plant-girl happily digested alive, ignoring the pitiful screams of the young interns as they languished in the digestion chamber located within the fleshy bulb at the center of the large plant creature. *** Today, another feeding was scheduled for Flora, Megan regarded with jittery and excited feelings she couldn't quite place. Megan drove to the botany wing of the research facility, where Flora was kept, as she absent-mindedly thumbed through her phone across a list of interns, trying to decide on the best woman to feed to the hungry Alraune. She decided on a tall blonde intern named Katie, who looked like a pretty good choice to satisfy the hungry plant woman. Katie had long flowing blonde hair and an athletic build, and appeared to be quite attractive to Megan. Megan read that Katie had tested for a rather low IQ, so Megan reasoned it wouldn't be much of a loss if the big woman ended up as plant fertilizer.
She parked the cart behind a tree near the entrance of the facility, and walked around to the side door to the botanical area. The door was locked, as usual, but Megan had the key card code that would open it. She read more from Katie's bio as she navigated the facility, noting that Katie liked to play sports and swim, which seemed to also indicate she that she would have a high protein content, which Flora needed in her diet. Megan noticed that Katie was over 6'3, noting the 'prey' item would keep the alraune fed for some time.
Megan entered the facility and went to check on Flora. As always, the Alraune woman was patiently waiting for her, her roots deeply implanted in the huge patch of nutrient rich dirt she grew in. The green-skinned, lithe womanly figure of Flora waved at Megan, the fleshy central pod of her body open wide in a display of the Alraune's hunger, an intoxicating sweet scent hanging around the room that nearly overwhelmed Megan at first.
Flora smiled widely when she saw Megan enter the room, waving happily as she motioned for her to come over. Megan approached cautiously, wary of the giant fleshy trunk growing from the center of the room, a digestion chamber that had been the slow, tight, and slimy doom of hundreds of women at this point. It's surface was covered in thick mucous slime, the alraune's slow-acting digestive enzyme which gradually broke live women down over many painful hours, the slimy fluid dripping onto the floor as Flora extended the petals surrounding the fleshy central bulb widely. The slimy vine tendrils residing at the center of Flora's lower body began sliding up towards Megan, before the scientist shooed them away and began conversing with Flora in a friendly tone "Good morning lovely! How are you today?" Megan asked politely, hoping to keep things civil.
"Very well thank you!" replied Flora, smiling broadly "I am ready to eat! Please bring me another girl! A nice big juicy one this time!"
"Sure thing!" Megan grinned, "Well then, I think you'll be very happy with the woman I've selected for your breakfast Flora, her name is Katie and she's a hardworking intern here at the facility. She's been working really hard for me lately, but not very smartly!"
"Katie!" exclaimed Flora "You mean the tall blonde with the large breasts? Yes yes! She will taste wonderful! Bring me Katie!" Megan raised an eyebrow suspiciously as Flora excitedly said this, "Flora, how do you know what Katie looks like? She's never been anywhere near your chamber."
"Oh! Oh! Of course! I'll happily tell you, but first I want to eat! This Katie girl is perfect, thank you Megan! She is very good looking! So fat! And with such big tits! Perfect for me!" replied Flora "Bring me Katie!"
"Alright! Alright!" Megan sighed "But you'd better enjoy her, poor Katie deserves better than spending the rest of her life in your stomach. Wait, I think I hear her now." Megan said, as Katie began walking down into the chamber "Here's our new intern Katie!"
"Morning!" Katie greeted as she arrived at the foot of the chamber "Wow.. is that... the Alraune, Megan!? It looks amazing!"
"It certainly does," agreed Megan, "Would you mind helping out here Katie? I'm trying to get Flora here familiar with strange people, would you mind going up to her and having a friendly conversation? For science, of course." Megan said with careful neutrality, as Katie stared at the plant woman in the center of the room.
"Of course not! It's my job, I'm just glad I'm finally getting trusted with something this important!" said Katie cheerfully, approaching the Alraune "Hi there!"
"Hello Katie," purred Flora, extending her long arms towards the intern, causing Katie to jump slightly. "S-she's safe to be around, right Megan?" Katie said with a bit of dawning worry, as Flora stared at her huge, toned body with unerring interest.
"Absolutely," Megan assured her "Just be gentle and talk slowly, you have absolutely nothing to worry about, I promise!" Megan said, trying to sound convincing, as Katie hesitantly stepped forward and awkwardly began talking to Flora in her deep, husky voice "Umm... hi. You're name's Flora right? So what's it like... um... being a plant?"
