******************************

Rebecca enjoyed that strength and agility the absorbed preys gave to her noticeably transformed body – with powers and features she heired after digesting Toriel, Renamon and Nicole, no one could defeat her. Even the infamous hell hound Loona… The fact she lived in other dimension made catching her a bit tricky, but Rebecca had an ace in the hole… Renamon was a CEO of big company, and of course she had contacts with Hell… With all knowledge of her preys at her disposal, Rebecca used her mobile phone to dial up a tormentingly long number, smirking as she heard her target's bored voice. "I.M.P. on the phone, whom would you like to kill?" Loona asked, struggling with a craving to yawn and being more focused on the TV set in the corner on the room, than on her new potential customer. "Hey, I'd like to get rid of my competitor, Rebecca Cunningham. I know you guys usually don't serve those who're still alive, but I got plenty of cash to pay you…" Rebecca said, imitating Renamon's voice. "Ah, Rena, it's you again? Fine, I'll get rid of her, shouldn't take too long…" Loona murmured a bit more friendly than before, looking at the pictures of Rebecca on her handset and not considering her to be a threat, deserving the attention of their entire squad. "Splendid, you know where to find me when you finish… Bye!" Rebecca said and finished the call, walking to the nearest bench in the park, which was absolutely empty so late at night…

Loona raised from her seat and stretched up sweetly, arching her back and flicking her fluffy tail before opening the portal to Cape Suzette town. She could put this job onto Moxxie, who was fooling around with paperwork, but she got sick and tired from sitting in the office and craved to kill someone with her bare hands for pretty damn long, so for her this order was a godsent… or, better say, a Satan-sent? She passed through the portal, expecting to find a helpless bear lady sleeping in her bed at such late time, but instead found herself amidst a dark and empty park, surrounded by rustling trees from all the sides. "Is that a joke, or what?" The hell hound murmured gloomily, taking her phone and dialing Renamon, twitching as she heard a phone ringing right behind her back. She lowered her ears as she saw a bizarre hybrid, which certainly had some of Renamon's traits, but was so heavily modified that it was hard to even suggest its initial species. "Oh, it isn't a joke, darling… I want you to kill me, or, at least, try to…" Rebecca mused with a devious smirk, locking Renamon's flip phone and tossing it in a trash bin. "Oh, that certainly can be arranged, abomination of transformation…" Loona snorted arrogantly, reaching Rebecca in just a couple of jumps and pouncing at her, aiming to her throat. Rebecca smirked and moved aside just a tad bit, punching Loona's gut so hard that poor hell hound was tossed fifty feet away, flipping in the air and landing on her face, leaving a deep trench on the lawn.

"Not so certain now, huh?" Rebecca mused mockingly, looking how Loona was squirming on the ground and whining in pain. That teasing made Loona growl in hatred and rise back on her feet despite that pain. "I will rip you apart, devour you and shit you out in a trash can, fucker!" The hell hound hissed as her eyes started glowing bright red and red sparks started emitting from her fingertips. "How rude of you, but as I said before – I'd like to see you try…" Rebecca crooned, forming a fireball in one hand and glacial spike in the other one, not really trying to intimidate her enemy – more like boasting her new gains and abilities. Loona was a tough nut to impress though, and now she took that contract personally… Her fur and hair stood on end as her body was accumulating electric charge of immense power, which then was shot into Rebecca's chest as an arm-thick red lightning, sending the narcissistic hybrid in equally humiliating short flight over the lawn, which ended only when her back met a tree trunk, leaving a deep dent with a bunch of cracks on it. It did hurt, quite a lot to be honest – not only her bones were sore from the strike, but also fur, skin and pieces of Toriel's sweater turned into a nasty crust on her chest. Well, at least her big bouncy breasts remained untouched, but it was a weak consolation…

"Impressive, for a hell mutt, of course…" Rebecca giggled mockingly, making Loona's eye twitch from anger. She raised back on her feet, peeling the burnt crust off her chest and revealing a pink spot of freshly grown skin, which already started covering with fur right on her confused and annoyed enemy's eyes. "Why don't you just die already?!" Loona growled starting to cast another lightning jolt, but ending up roughly interrupted by a fireball, which Rebecca tossed to her head. The hell hound cursed and tried to dodge it, but found out with fear that her paws were frozen to the ground, covered with a thick layer of ice. "Oh fu…" She gasped and howled as the fireball exploded and put the countless flames all over her fur. She might origin from hell, but her body still could burn, and she didn't like that sensation at all, howling, whining and trying to extinguish the flames by spanking them with her hands. "Pathetic… not that I would expect more from an arrogant little bitch like you…" Rebecca snorted, flailing her arm and forming a vortex of snow and cold air around Loona, which quickly extinguished the fire and turned her into a very angry snow woman. Her paws were still attached to the ground though, restricting her movements, and with her fur being soaking wet she couldn't risk messing around with lightnings anymore… "Now, how about we stop ruining that pretty body of yours and have some fun together instead?" Rebecca mused with a devious smirk, pulling off her ruined sweater and pants, making Loona blush a bit from embarrassment.

Rebecca was almost 8 feet tall now, with all those successful business women she devoured earlier today. Her body was quite curvy on its own, but now, each of her breasts was a size of Loona's head, and her thighs looked like they could easily crack the said head if Rebecca pleased so… Her chubby belly was sagging down a little bit, and tattoos of Toriel's, Renamon's and Nicole's face were clearly visible even in the dim light of a distant electric lantern. "What are… those?" Loona asked in a mixture of curiosity and anxiety, nodding at the tattoos on Rebecca's belly. "These are sweet reminders of my previous meals, and you will join them pretty soon, darling – bet your grumpy face will be the main part of my little collection…" Rebecca mused sassily, ruffling Loona's hair with her hand and jerking it away as the hell hound almost managed to bite her fingers. "Don't fucking touch me!" Loona growled in anger, only making Rebecca chuckle again. "Oh, I will touch you however and wherever I want, darling…" Rebecca mused, pushing the undeniably strong yet so fragile hell hound down on the ground and ripping off her top, grasping her breasts and squeezing them lovingly despite desperate resistance of Loona's. "Get off me, you, pervert! I didn't sign up on that!" Loona yelled, helplessly worming under the weight of Rebecca's body, kicking her now unfrozen legs in the air.

"I bet none of your preys signed up to get killed too, so why don't you taste your own medicine?" Rebecca mused, starting to lick and suck Loona's nipples. "You don't understand… it's different…" Loona babbled, blushing as hell and nipping her lip from pleasure as Rebecca playfully teased her sensitive nipples with her fangs and squeezed them with her lips, obviously not only enjoying herself, but also trying to give some pleasure to her prey as well. Her hands, meanwhile, slowly ran down Loona's soft furry sides, grabbing her shorts and pulling them off her bouncy booty intentionally slowly, revealing her pussy which was getting moister with every lick Rebecca gave to the hell hound's nipples. "Yeah? And how is exactly it different?" Rebecca asked sarcastically, starting to rub Loona's pussy with her hand and listening to her lusty moans with unhidden pleasure. The said moans were only getting louder and louder with every touch of Rebecca's paw to the hell hound's sensitive labia, and when she squeezed her fingers into her future prey's cervix, Loona couldn't really say anything coherent anymore, only squirming and wriggling under the hybrid's body helplessly and moaning like a kinky slut. "You do what you please simply because you can, so why shouldn't I act the same way?" Rebecca asked rhetorically, pressing her own needy pussy against Loona's and starting to grind them together, making the hell hound completely speechless at this point.

"M-mph, you're definitely the hottest among all of my preys… I wish I could fuck you more than once…" Rebecca murmured in a lusty voice, lowering her eyelids from pleasure and planting a passionate kiss to Loona's lips. The hell hound was so pent up that didn't even try to resist or bite the hybrid anymore, letting Rebecca do whatever she wanted and just enjoying that stimulation she gave her. "Seems like that feeling is finally mutual, huh?" Rebecca asked with a mischievous smile, grinding their pussies together even harder, squeezing Loona's head between her own massive breasts and groping her slender body here and there, enjoying how it felt to the touch. Her chubby belly was groaning from hunger louder and louder, already anticipating the filling meal, which now was so cutely moaning in lust under her. It didn't take her long to make Loona cum with a lusty moan, and the sole fact of her ultimate dominance over another popular woman of the town gave her the last bits of stimulation necessary to climax herself. "M-mph… yeah… I have to admit that it felt… good…" Loona babbled, softening with her entire body under Rebecca, who now was simply lying on top of her, enjoying the warmth and moisture on her crotch. "I'm glad that you realized that… too bad you won't have much time to savor that sensation…" Rebecca crooned, licking her lips hungrily and opening her mouth really wide, deciding to strike while Loona was still off guard.

The hell hound stared at the gaping maw of a hybrid with a mixture of fear and disbelief – Rebecca had told her that she was going to eat her like the others, but she thought that it was bluffing or a bad joke… Unfortunately, it wasn't a joke anymore – the pred's hot humid breath washed the prey's streamlined snout before the hybrid's jaws stretched over Loona's entire head at once, lavishly soaking her fur with hot sticky drool before she was shoved deeper, into Rebecca's throat. Of course, the hell hound started squirming and struggling with all of her might, but her body still wasn't completely obeying her after blissful orgasm, and taking the size and strength difference into account – she had no chance to win this fight by any means. Rebecca purred in delight, licking all over Loona's face and then neck, enjoying her wonderful flavor before her own neck bulged with the shape of the hell hound's head. The narrow fleshy tunnel of her gullet was throbbing rhythmically, dragging her prey a bit deeper inside her mighty body with every gulp she made. Her maw stretched over Loona's shoulders, then her breasts, which weren't nearly as big as her own ones, then the rest of her chest, pinning the prey's arms to the sides, so the hell hound couldn't make any serious resistance anymore, no matter how hard she tried…

"N-no… this can't be happening…" Loona whined, wriggling and fidgeting in Rebecca's gullet helplessly, hearing nothing but the loud thumping heartbeat and deep breath of the predator, suppressing the sounds of the outer world for her while her head was making its way through the hybrid's chest. The ominous groaning and gurgling of Rebecca's stomach below wasn't making it any better, keeping the hell hound constantly aware of her grim fate. Loona gasped as Rebecca tilted her head up, stretching her jaws over her prey's slender belly and making her streamlined snout squeeze through the narrow sphincter into much roomier fleshy chamber, which could be nothing, but the hybrid's stomach. A powerful acrid scent assaulted Loona's nostrils – there was plenty of gastric juices, eagerly waiting for her, sloshing on the bottom of that deadly gastric sack… "N-no… I'm a predator, not a prey!" She cried out, only making Rebecca chuckle as she still could hear Loona's voice, muffled by her own flesh and pudge, distinctly enough. She decided to humiliate the hell hound even more, stopping swallowing for a little while and starting to gnaw Loona's bouncy booty teasingly. Her tongue, meanwhile, started probing her prey's pussy, soaked with plenty of pre and femcum from both of them. "S-stop that right now!" Loona yelled, kicking her slender legs in the air helplessly and moaning since as much as she hated this whole situation, getting her pussy licked still felt really good, even if the rest of her body was halfway in the throat of a kinky predator…

But Rebecca didn't stop, not until Loona squirted another load into her mouth with a lusty moan, savoring its wonderful flavor and licking the hell hound's pussy clean before continuing swallowing her down. The prey's body softened after orgasm again, letting the pred finish her meal with ease and joy. Rebecca rubbed her swelling belly with both hands, enjoying increasing weight and tension inside. She slowly slurped in Loona's limp legs like a couple of noodles, steadily shoving more and more of her slender body inside her stomach, which easily stretched, gladly accommodating another living meal. "N-no… I don't want to…" Loona whined, curling down into fetal position under the pressure of Rebecca's stomach walls, twitching and fidgeting as the pred gave her feet a few teasing licks, enjoying the flavor of her paw pads and toe beans before making the final thick gulp, sending the rest of the hell hound down her gullet. A thunderous belch escaped from Rebecca's mouth, removing all excess air from her stomach and making it collapse around the unfortunate prey, making the outlines of her body clearly visible through the strained furry hide of the predator's abdomen, and even pudge on the pred's waist couldn't hide the beauty of her prey completely, not that the said beauty would last for too long though…

"M-m-m, if it makes you feel better – you surely were the most delicious prey I ate so far…" Rebecca mused, licking her lips in satisfaction and giving her swollen belly a few loving pats. "How the hell is it supposed to make me feel better, fat ass?!" Loona groaned angrily, trying to kick and punch the squishy and slimy stomach walls around her, but they squeezed her from all the sides to tightly that she could barely move, not speaking about struggling. All those helpless wiggles of hers only left moving bulges on the strained furry hide of the hybrid, giving her even more pleasure from her filling and extremely unwilling meal. "Dunno, not that I care much about how you feel anyway – after all you will be nothing more, but pudge on my hips by the end of the day…" Rebecca crooned mockingly, rubbing her pussy and enjoying her dominance over her helpless prey. Suddenly she heard a buzzing noise and picked up Loona's phone from the grass, smirking as she saw familiar imp face. "Aww, it's Blitzo, seems like he is missing his beloved furry girl, huh? Too bad he will never see you alive again…" Rebecca mused with an evil grin on her face, shoving the buzzing phone into her pussy and using it as a vibrator, moaning with unhidden pleasure and only making the poor hell hound feel even worse.

"I… You… Hell, I've seen plenty of assholes in my life, but you're the worst of the worst!" Loona groaned, being barely able to speak from a mixture of anger and hatred, straightening up her arms and legs, trying to stretch the pred's stomach as much as she could in ghostly hope to make it burst. Of course, the only result she achieved was giving the pervy pred even more pleasure and making her moans even louder and lustier. One of her particularly strong kicks made the phone slip out from Rebecca's wet fingers and get slurped deeper, into her cervix. "O-ops… seems like your phone is gone now… not like you will need it anyway, he-he…" The hybrid giggled mischievously, nipping her lip as the phone kept vibrating on its way to her womb, bombarding her mind with tons of pleasant sensations, doubled by the wriggling prey inside her stomach. She started rubbing her moist labia again, moaning and huffing as all that stimulation not only felt incredibly good, but also was speeding up her digestion, making her stomach walls shrink so tight around Loona that they were almost breaking her bones, rubbing more and more gastric juices into her fur and softening up her entire body uniformly, making its outlines smoothen up and lose their shape as the hell hound was rapidly melting into nutrient goop. "N-no… you can't just digest me like a snack!" Loona whined, looking with horror at her own melting fingers, weakly illuminated by her glowing red eyes. "Oh, I can, and I surely will…" Rebecca moaned and squirted her load on the grass.

She kept her promise – her belly crushed whatever left of Loona in less than a minute, turning a sexy hell hound into nothing more but nutrient goop for even sexier hybrid's body to digest. Her phone stopped buzzing in the pred's womb too, melting into thick femcum for her next orgasm. Rebecca's belly was gradually shrinking down more and more as Loona's remains were seeping deeper, into the hybrid's intestines, where it was absorbed and turned into a few pounds of sweet jiggling pudge, added to the pred's thighs, rear, waist, and, of course, breasts, making already curvy lady even curvier. "M-mph, went straightly to the right places, huh?" Rebecca mused sassily, squeezing her enlarged breasts lovingly and looking at the reflection in the lake at her improved figure. But weight wasn't the only thing she heired from her prey – her eyes now were bloody red and glowing, just like Loona's. The hell hound's enraged face added to the tattoos on Rebecca's pot belly, leaving a permanent reminder about her fourth victory. "Have fun on my gut, darling…" Rebecca crooned, patting her tummy lovingly before wiggling her fingers, trying to summon a lightning. Her body and its absorption powers didn't let her down this time either – red sparks covered her entire hand, gathering in a ball of hot plasma she tossed into the lake, rising a whole fountain of splashes. "Splendid… With such powers I'm already unstoppable, but there's still one special dish left in the menu…" Rebecca crooned, thinking about the last popular business woman in the town – Callie Briggs.

The greedy pred pulled on Toriel's pants and sweater, cursing as now she grew out even from the goat mom's size, making the cloth rip in a few places in addition to the hole on the chest, left from Loona's attack. "Well, I guess if someone asks me about that – I can always add them to my thighs…" Rebecca shrugged, finally leaving the park and walking towards the suburb section of the town. Callie used to be a deputy mayor of the town but retired a few years ago, fulfilling her dream to leave a peaceful and quiet life away from the hustle of the city hall. Too bad that dream didn't last for long since the greedy hybrid, who wasn't even remotely reminding a bear anymore, broke into her home through the window, not even bothering about staying unnoticed – why would she if her body packed powers of four mighty ladies she already devoured? "Huh?! Who or… what are you?" Callie asked in a mixture of fear and surprise, hopping out from the comfy armchair she was sitting at and watching TV. "Rebecca. Rebecca Cunningham, not sure if you still remember me though…" The hybrid said with a chuckle, pulling Toriel's ruined sweater off herself, deciding not to beat around the bush this time at all.

"Rebecca Cunningham? That bear girl who was nagging for a loan to open her delivery business? I remember you were shorter… and slimmer…" Callie murmured, blushing bright red from embarrassment as the uncalled guest started shamelessly stripping down in front of her. "Oh, so you do remember me? I'm flattered…" Rebecca chuckled, undoing her belt. "L-listen, if you won't leave my house right now – I will call the SWAT Kats and they…" Callie babbled, blushing more and more as the hybrid started pulling off her pants, revealing her crotch and rear in all their naked glory. "They will serve as a wonderful dessert for me…" Rebecca finished for the horribly embarrassed feline, tossing her clothes in a pile on the floor and starting to walk towards the ex-deputy mayor with a menacing smirk on her face. "Stay away from me, you, freak!" Callie yelled, rising her hands and using her air bending power to literally blow the horngry pred a few steps back, but not out from the building as she hoped – the hybrid was just too big and too heavy, and that wasn't so surprising, considering she ate, digested and absorbed four same size preys already. "You try blowing on me? I guess it will only be fair to blow my load on you then…" Rebecca mused sassily, barely feeling any discomfort from her enemy using her supernatural powers, just pouncing at her and knocking the poor feline down, pinning her down to the floor with immense weight of her body.

"N-ngh… let me go, you, weirdo…" Callie whined, helplessly squirming under Rebecca like a worm, only encouraging the pred to carry out her threat. "Oh, you have no idea how weird I am yet…" Rebecca crooned with a devious smirk, sitting onto Callie's face and grinding her moist pussy against it, making the feline moan and wriggle in protest, but what could she do in such situation besides trying to keep her mouth shut? Rebecca's pre was still soaking between Callie's lips, filling her mouth with extremely humiliating yet surprisingly pleasant flavor of another female body. Rebecca herself, meanwhile, undone the belt on Callie's waist and opened her bath robe, revealing her naked body, slightly wet after the shower she had just taken. "M-m-m, you even washed yourself for me, how sweet of your…" Rebecca crooned mischievously, feeling how her mouth was filling with drool and her belly was groaning from hunger at such an appetizing view. She kept thoroughly grinding her pussy against Callie's face, pressing harder and harder until the feline finally gave up and started doing what the pred wanted from her – licking that needy pussy of hers. "O-oh, yes-s… good girl…" Rebecca murmured in a lusty voice, lowering her eyelids from pleasure and stopping grinding her crotch against the poor feline for a little bit, letting her prey please her on her own.

She decided to return the favor, leaning down and reaching Callie's own pussy, nuzzling it and making an eager breath in before starting to lick it with gradually increasing pace, running her tongue along Callie's labia, probing it into her cervix deeper and deeper, nipping the sensitive bulge of her clitoris with her lips and trying to deliver as much pleasure to her prey as she could to Callie's surprise. The feline was moaning even louder than before, now not in pain but in lust, enjoying that marvelous cunnilingus the unexpected guest was giving her and licking her pussy back as hard as she could too, getting more and more aroused over time. Rebecca moaned and huffed, starting to move her thighs back and forth a little bit again, adding more friction between their tongues and pussies and giving both of them so much pleasure, that they came almost synchronously, filling up each other's mouth with plenty of femcum. Though Rebecca's load was much bigger, considering she was not only bigger herself, but also turned Loona's phone into a hefty portion of femcum too. The hybrid licked her future prey's pussy clean, enjoying the wonderful flavor of the most intimate part of her body. Callie was trying to do the same, but she wasn't used to climaxing as much as Rebecca, so her movements were weak and sluggish, encouraging the pred to get to the next step of her not so cunning but still effective plan.

The hybrid kept sitting on her prey's face to keep Callie steady, meanwhile grasping her legs by the ankles and putting them into her mouth, starting to eagerly lick all over the feline's soles and toes, enjoying their wonderful flavor. Callie didn't realize what was going on at first, but when the greedy pred made the first gulp, shoving the prey's feet into the narrow rippling tunnel of her throat, the danger became quite obvious and unfortunate cat lady started squirming under Rebecca's rear. "N-nomph!!! Don't do thatmph!!!" She moaned barely audibly through the pred's booty, but Rebecca didn't care about her pleas for mercy. Actually, those pleas were only making her desire to devour this tasty kitty even stronger… Gulp after gulp, Rebecca steadily devoured the prey's legs up to the knees, then stretched her jaws over the feline's thighs, while her feet squeezed through the narrow sphincter into much roomier fleshy chamber of the pred's stomach. Finally, Rebecca lifted her heavy rear off Callie's face and then made another greedy gulp, stretching her maw over the prey's rear and wrapping her lips around the feline's lips. "Y-you can't be serious…" Callie babbled, but when the pred made another gulp and stretched her jaws over the prey's belly, she realized that the hybrid was deadly serious. "Rebecca, please, don't do this! I'm still in touch with the mayor, I will ask him to give you whatever you want, just don't eat me…" Callie whined in despair.

Rebecca snorted and rolled her eyes, putting her hand on top of Callie's head and gently yet forcefully pushing her down. She didn't want anything from Callie, besides her sexy body, of course… "N-no… Please…" Callie whimpered, trying to pull herself back out from the pred's maw, resting her hands on the hybrid's snout, but Rebecca just wiggled her jaws a little bit, making the prey's hands slip into her throat, where they got pinned to her sides by the pred's gullet walls, giving her no leverage for resistance. Rebecca put the second hand of hers onto her belly, feeling, how it was getting bigger and rounder with every gulp she made as more and more of the struggling feline was crammed into her stomach. The pred gave a few teasing licks to her prey's breasts before lapping her tongue around the crying and sobbing feline's neck and slowly dragging her down into her seemingly bottomless throat, taking her time to savor both flavor and despair of her prey before closing her jaws over Callie's head and making the final thick gulp. A monstrous bulge slowly slid down the pred's neck and then chest, settling down inside her belly, swelling it up to the size of a beach ball and giving her that intoxicating feeling of weight, warmth and fullness inside…

"Sorry, Callie, but all I need from you… is you…" Rebecca mused, rubbing her swollen belly lovingly and letting out a hearty belch, making her gut shrink even tighter around her poor prey, who wasn't nearly as strong and furious as Loona. "That… that isn't fair…" Callie whined, feeling how caustic gastric juices were rubbed into her body from all the sides by the rippling stomach walls of the predator, already starting to soften her up. She was scared, weak and hopeless, just as a good prey should be… "World isn't fair, dear… it's all about survival of the fittest, not more and not less…" Rebecca crooned, climbing onto the couch, which squealed under her immense weight. She rubbed her belly with both hands, feeling how it was getting softer and rounder with every second, digesting and absorbing poor feline much faster than the hell hound. "And you will make me the fittest girl in the town…" She added with a mischievous giggle, giving her belly a teasing slap and making Callie murmur something illegible inside and twitch a few times before she finally passed away, turning into nothing more but a source of nutrients for the greedy hybrid. The pred's distended middle kept shrinking as its semi-liquid contents were draining into long and tangled intestines, absorbing without any leftovers, while her thighs, breasts and rear were growing, gaining a few more pounds of pudge. The fifth face-shaped tattoo appeared on Rebecca's pale belly, which now was white like Renamon's or Loona's ones. Her tail became thinner and longer as more feline genes were added to that bizarre mixture her body already was. "I wonder if you power is any good compared to the others…" She murmured, flicking her finger and blowing an empty cardboard coffee cup off the table next to her. "Not much, but still something…" She shrugged, gradually drifting asleep. She eliminated all of her competitors and had the entire town at her feet if she wanted so…
