I stared in wonder at the crater in the middle of the clearing, tentatively inching forward. Some kind of faint green smoke rose up from the groove the meteor had carved in the earth and the entire clearing seemed to hum with a high keening sound. It reminded me of a violin, if I stopped to focus on it, though it was barely audible.

During a night at home, in the middle of a fit of painful loneliness, I had spotted a twinkling in the sky. A star was glowing a bright white, with a faint green tinge to it, shining brighter than all the others. I didn’t much believe in wishes, but I didn’t want to risk it being true and not having made one.

“I wish I wasn’t so alone anymore…”

Almost as soon as the words left my mouth, the star began to burn even brighter as it started to screech through the sky, hurtling itself deeper into the woods outside of town. The ground shook with the impact and I nearly lost my footing. I waited several minutes while looking over the neighborhood, but surprisingly, no one else seemed to have woken up or noticed its impact.

Feeling some kind of significance to the meteor, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it was an answer to my wish. I threw on a hoodie and headed into the forest to find where it had landed.

The groove it had cut in the earth was long and deep, straight through an open clearing, bottoming out in an oval shaped crater the space rock rested in. A lime green light started to pulsate as I neared the lip of the hole.

I looked over the edge, spotting the massive rock sitting in the center, which was coated in some kind of green liquid. It was an odd shape, almost a perfect oval, but with a strange curve to it. The grey surface was covered in lines and markings, but they seemed more decorative than writing. The liquid was abnormal in itself, glowing a sickly green color while it moved and shifted across the surface of the rock, though it still clung to the surface like a gel coating. The top of the gel-like material behaved like fire, with the surface rising, falling and shifting like licking flames.

Tentatively, I slid down the dirt wall, stopping myself before I slid too close to the space rock. As I realized I had most likely stumbled across some kind of alien artifact, I pulled out my phone and started to take pictures, as well as recording a video. Upon closer inspection, the rock was two ovals put together, joined at the middle to look almost like a human brain.

When I had finished, I had no desire to get closer to it, instead turning away from it to climb back out of the crater.

Not a second had passed before I felt something slick and wet jam itself into my ear. I cringed and reached up to grab it, but a sudden and violent wave of dizziness came over me and an icy chill shocked my skull. A freezing, slimy object forced itself through my ear, quickly covering my entire brain and chilling my skull.

As soon as the slime tentacle entered, it yanked itself back out like it had never been there to begin with.

An awkward and involuntary whine warbled out of my throat as I lost my balance, tipped sideways from the sudden tug. I blinked to clear my watering eyes, but they were unfocused. My hand numbly pawed at my ear, feeling nothing but my own skin like usual. The icy chill around my brain steadily warmed up as well.

While I tried to clear my vision, I suddenly realized the whining in the clearing had gotten much louder, and was now very clearly a melody being played on a violin, and not a bad one at that.

Green began to creep into my vision and I felt like I was spinning, groaning unnaturally and struggling to balance on my knees. The feeling of vertigo was slower to fade than the chill in my skull.

Looking back towards the rock, I blinked slowly while trying to process what I was seeing. The green coating of the stone was mostly gone, with the rest of it sliding towards the top and out of sight. Beyond the peak of the rock, the green glow was intensifying. 

My heart sank when a shadow started to grow against the crater wall.

The creature was humanoid in shape, with two arms and two legs, complete with a head on its shoulders. The head was devoid of all defining features, like ears or any kind of hair. The figure shuddered and slowly rose up, arms dangling at its side inhumanely. 

The fear in my chest only rose with the intensity of the violin playing in my ears, which had turned eerie and ominous.

The figure threw its head back, two tentacles suddenly extending out from the back of the skull and hitting the ground with a wet sound. It stayed like that for a long moment, completely still.

Then it began to dance.

The dance was strange, just slightly bending its knees and rocking its hips to the rhythm of the violin. The movements were alien, not quite as smooth or fluid as a human would do them, especially with how stiff the upper body remained.

I swallowed nervously and scooted backwards in the dirt, my heart hammering in my chest while all my instincts were telling me to run.

The figure gave a crazed giggle, and suddenly all my fear dissipated.

“J-Jinx?”

I stood up slowly, legs still unsteady. The figure sprang forward like their legs were made of rubber, jumping on the rock then continuing to do its jig.

A wide, dopey smile spread across my face.

Jinx grinned back at me, shooting me a wink before starting to sing.

“Well, hey there, cutie!

Don’t be shy,

Step right up, I’m not a bad guy!

Don’t be frightened by the look in my eye,

I’m just your average evil meteor from out of the sky!”

I nodded dumbly, stepping closer to her. I could hardly believe my dream girl was standing in front of me and talking to me, let alone that she called me cute.

My mind was too clouded and slow to realize what she was really singing, as well as her overall appearance. Jinx was anything but normal looking, even for herself. Her entire body was translucent, clearly made of the same jelly that once clung to the brain-shaped rock. Her skin was a pale blue, not even close to a normal human skin tone. Her normally pink and black clothing was grey and purple, though it looked like an exact replica. Hair that was usually a vivid and deep blue was now a shocking pale green, almost mint colored. Her bangs danced like the flames of the fire that the slime had resembled.

Finally, her face was the largest indicator of how inhuman she was. Her smile was far too wide, nearly stretching from one ear to the other. The whites of her eyes were a dark gray that didn’t even reflect light, and her irises were a thin, glowing white band around her pupils, which were narrowed into pinpricks.

Despite how utterly terrifying and alien the creature before me was, my mind completely failed to process any of it. My thoughts were slow and clouded, only able to realize that Jinx was indeed standing in front of me, without questioning any of her oddities.

I didn’t even notice when I started dancing in a similar manner to her, or that the violins that resonated through the clearing were now joined by jaunty drums.

‘Jinx’ jumped down from the rock, bouncing and dancing more animatedly, moving like a cartoon character with the lack of bones in her body. She shrugged and looked towards the sky, continuing on with her song.

“Well, I’m just shy and scared in this place,

I’m just a fish outta water from outer space.

You can see that the trip has left me tired and drained,

So why don’t you be a pal,”

She suddenly lunged forward, cupping my cheeks in her freezing cold hands. Her smile stretched far larger and wider than any human mouth ever could, displaying rows of sharp, pointed teeth. She brought my face less than an inch from her own, her beady, empty eyes boring into my soul.

“AND BRING ME SOME BRAAAIIINS!”

I blinked slowly and dumbly, lips pursed from her hands squeezing my cheeks. After my brain started moving again, I grinned up at her and nodded eagerly as best I could in her grip. Jinx smiled again and let me go, resuming her dancing.

Without question or thought, I turned and scrambled up the crater before skipping through the clearing and back towards the neighborhood, still moving to the beat of the music radiating from the crater.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Go down to your neighbor’s place,

See the dull expression on her face,

You’d be doing her a favor if you brought her to me,

She’s not using her brain, she’s just watching TV!”

Jane woke up to me shaking her shoulders wildly, forcing her awake from her sitting position on her couch. The TV’s volume was low, but it was still playing a cheesy black and white horror movie about brain eating aliens.

“J-Jessie?! W-What the fuck?! Why are you in my house? How did you ev-?”

I covered her mouth, grinning down at her and pointing towards her window excitedly.

“Shut up, no time! C’mon, I gotta show you something! It’s super cool, trust me!”

Before she could turn me down, I tugged her off the couch and towards the door by her arm. Dragging her outside, I grinned even wider at the faint green glow radiating from the forest.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jane was breathing heavily by the time we reached the clearing, but I was unphased from the run. I slowed my pace, but still led her by the arm towards the crater.

“Holy shit, Jessie, what’s going on?” She blinked, finally catching her breath and noticing the crater. “Wait...what is this?”

I led her to the edge of the crater before finally letting her go. My smile fell when I didn’t see Jinx anywhere in the hole, though the music still continued to play around us.

“Is this a meteor or som-?”

I turned to Jane when she was cut off. Her eyes were rolled back in her head and her body was tensed up like it was frozen solid. Jinx had one hand cupping the brunette’s chin and the other on the back of her head. The slimegirl had her lips pressed to Jane’s ear, and she slowly pulled her head back to reveal a ridiculously long tongue, which was still inside the brunette’s head.

A second later, the tongue flexed and pulled back. As it pulled free, a large, pinkish-gray object slid out with it, squeezing out of Jane’s ear. Jinx looked over to me and shot me a wink, wrapping her tongue around the brain and slurping it into her mouth. She swallowed it in one go, following the visible bulge down her throat with a finger. The shadow of the brain slid downwards like it was sinking into jello before stopping at her belly, where she gave it a pat.

I watched with slack jawed amazement, only looking back at my friend when she started to twitch. Jane’s eyes were still rolled back in her head, and her skin had turned to a deathly pale shade, but she began to bounce and move like she was just fine. The newly zombified brunette started to dance to the same music that Jinx and I were moving to, shuffling around on her own.

Satisfied that my friend didn’t mind having her brain get eaten, I waved to Jinx and dashed out into the neighborhood again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Go down to Mr. McGee’s,

He hasn’t had a thought since 43,

His brain is the portrait of atrophy,

He’s not using it, why not give it to me~!”

It wasn’t hard to get Mr. McGee to follow me, all I had to do was tell him that Jane had been attacked in the woods, and the war vet was dashing alongside me back into the woods. I was slightly worried about the gun he brought with him, if only for Jinx’s sake, but something told me she would be fine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Mr. McGee broke into the clearing before I could, slowing down and calling out to the shuffling Jane. Before I could catch up with him, Jinx stepped out in front of me, planting a kiss squarely on my lips. I froze for a second but started kissing back slowly, ignoring the complete lack of warmth from her touch.

From the corner of my eye, I could see one of her slime braids snake out and jam itself into Mr. McGee’s ear, pulling his brain out a second later and enveloping it in slime. It travelled up her braid, vanishing out of sight behind her head and making her moan into the kiss. A few seconds later she pulled away, hands rubbing at the second shadow in her belly.

“Brains, brains, I won’t lie!
I’ll eat their brains ‘til they’re zombified!

Sure, they might think it’s deranged,

But they won’t give it a thought after I’ve eaten their brains!”

As Jinx danced, the shadows started to fade, melting and churning like a lava lamp inside her before disappearing. Her flat chest grew, noticeably shifting her top as she became more busty. Her hips widened slightly and her shorts tightened from her ass expanding as well, but most noticeable was her getting taller. She grew two inches or so as she danced, swinging her hips more vigorously and energetically while biting her lip at me.

“Brains, brains, it’s okay!

It’s not a matter if it isn’t gray!

And if at first they think it’s strange,

They won’t think twice if they don’t have a brain!”

I smiled up at her dopely, slowly walking backwards until I tripped over a log. Jumping to my feet, I watched her go back to dancing in the clearing before running into town again, leaving my two brainless neighbors to dance with her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Go down to the wonton shop,

My fortune cookie says that I just can’t stop!

I suck the noodle right outta their heads,

And half an hour later, I’m hungry again!”

My thoughts when I wasn’t around Jinx were becoming increasingly foggy, my body running on autopilot. I seemed to be doing a good enough job though, considering I left the chinese food restaurant with the entire staff and a few customers hot on my heels to check out what was in the woods.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jinx wasted no time slurping all of their brains down, slime braids and tongue all working simultaneously to pull them out and put them inside herself. She shuddered in ecstasy at the dozen brains sitting in her belly, making it bloated and rounded. She continued to dance alongside the zombified chefs, letting her gut slosh and bounce with each movement.

Noticing I was staring, she grinned and pulled me closer, pressing my face into her belly while she jiggled it around. She leaned down, whispering her next instructions into my ear, promising to hold off on digesting them to make her belly bigger if I hurried.

I face planted sprinting out of the clearing, but was on my feet a half second later, running into town as fast as I could.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Go down to the donut stop,

Sneak in, tiptoe past the cop,

Pick me up a cruller and a cup full of tea,

And any other sweetbreads you happen to see~”

The coffee shop workers were hesitant to follow me, given my sickly pale complexion and green tinge to the whites of my eyes, but they finally relented when I mentioned their level headed coworker Jane was attending the party as well.

They did shoot me weird looks when I purposefully avoided the cops, as well as dancing to a song apparently only I could hear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Brains, brains, I won’t lie!

I’ll eat their brains ‘till they’re zombified!

Sure, they might think it’s deranged,

But they won’t give it a thought after I’ve eaten their brains!”

I had to tackle one of the baristas when they tried to run screaming from the clearing. Pinning her down was surprisingly easy, even with me being more focused on Jinx slurping down brain after brain. Her long, flexible tongue fished one out of someone’s head, pulled it through another person’s along with their own brain, and slurped both of them down in one gulp.

For two others, she grabbed them by their heads and shoved them into her breasts, straight through her jelly-based bra and skin. She danced for a moment while they struggled, before they suddenly went limp. They fell free a moment later, drunkenly stumbling to their feet and starting to dance with the others.

Jinx danced towards me, shaking and sloshing her bloated belly towards me seductively. I hugged the panicked barista tightly and stood up, grinning ear to ear and presenting her to my mistress.

My smile widened even further when Jinx’s slime braids wrapped around the two of us and lifted us up, the barista screaming in fear. The slimegirl’s maw opened impossibly wide, shoving the both of us inside up to our waists. I could hardly believe what was happening, even as Jinx’s tongue was running all over the two of us, coating us in saliva. She sucked on us like we were a lollipop, enough that I began to get lightheaded, before a wet pop was heard.

A second later, Jinx pulled the brainless barista and I out of her mouth, setting us back on the ground. I let the girl go, already starting to feel her dance with the others.

Laying my eyes on the bouncing belly in front of me, I shoved the barista away, not caring that she landed flat on her face. I rushed forward, hugging Jinx’s gut and burying my face into it, hearing it blorp loudly from my squeezing. Her hand pressed on the back of my head, pushing me deeper into it while it started to churn, quickly shrinking in size.

“Brains, brains, it’s okay!

It’s not a matter if it isn’t gray!

And if at first they think it’s strange,

They won’t think twice if they don’t have a brain!”

Jinx’s breasts doubled in size, though her top remained just as small, meaning it barely covered her enhanced boobs. Her hips widened significantly, which I was left hugging when her belly flattened out and she grew another two feet taller, my arms wrapped around her hips and hands on her ass. She continued to dance as I hugged her, letting me feel her round backside jiggle in my arms.

We stayed like that for a few moments until she pulled away, dancing away from me while grinning at me. Her jelly-like curves bounced and jiggled with each movement, hypnotizing me further with her ten foot tall hourglass figure. Her hands rubbed over her flat midriff, clearly already eager to have more inside herself.

“Brains, brains, I love ‘em, I need ‘em,

My tummy jumps for joy when I eat ‘em,

Big ones, fat ones, short ones, tall ones,

They’re so delectable, especially the small ones,”

I was practically drooling from the sight of her dancing, and Jinx knew it. She turned around, continuing to dance but showing off her massive, juicy ass, which was almost at eye level for me now.

“No time to cook ‘em in a skillet

My belly’s rumbling, I got a need to fill it,

I don’t fry ‘em, the heat will only shrink ‘em,

I just grab myself a straw and I drink ‘em~!”

Jinx twirled, jumped, then shuffled away, and I was finally able to focus enough to look around me. Dozens of brainless people danced around the crater, all in perfect sync with each other and the music that played in our heads. The crater glowed a bright green, lighting up the entire area from the intensity, and I was vaguely aware of one of the brainless individuals playing a tuba along with the music.

I don’t know how long I was just staring dumbly, bouncing robotically to the beat, before Jinx moved back into my view and put her hands on my shoulders.

“You’ve been swell to go around,

And bring me every single brain in town,

But with all these brains I can’t help but think

That there’s a whole lot more out there to drink~”

I smiled widely again and nodded vigorously up at my queen, already imagining her with an even bigger belly full of brains. 

“Now come on, Jess,

I know best!

There’s a whole lot more to collect!

Bring them down here to meet their end,

And I promise I’ll be your new girlfriend~”

My eyes were as wide as they could possibly get at the idea of a full bellied, extra thicc, extra tall Jinx being my girlfriend. I nodded vigorously up at her, meeting her empty, alien eyes with my own.

She grinned an evil grin down at me, watching the green slime leaking out of my eyes and ears, knowing that I was hers to control. She turned back to the brainless dancers, beginning to sing again as I ran off into town again.

“Brains, brains, I won’t lie!

I’ll eat their brains ‘til they’re zombified!

Sure, they might think it’s deranged,

But they won’t give it a thought after I’ve eaten their brains!

Brains, brains, it’s okay!

It’s not a matter if it isn’t gray!

And if at first they think it’s strange,

They won’t think twice if they don’t have a brain!

Braaaaiiins…

Bring me more braaaaiiins,

BRING ME MORE BRAAAAIIINS!

BRING ME MORE BRAAAAAAAIIIIINS!

AHAHAHAHAHAHAAA~!”
