You pick up the piece of gum - spearmint flavor, according to the wrapper. Since you’re probably not going to chew this gum anytime soon, you decide you might as well transform into it.
The moment you press ‘Confirm’ on the app, you feel an incredibly strange sensation throughout your entire body - thankfully not one of pain, but still very difficult to describe. Your physical body is sucked into the screen and converted into a digital file, while your consciousness is transferred into the piece of spearmint gum.
You’re grateful to have retained your human senses, though they are now tied to the object your soul currently inhabits. Despite your current lack of eyes or limbs, you can still see and feel everything around you, as well as smell the fresh minty scent of your gum body.
You attempt to cheer at the confirmation that this app actually works…only to discover that as a piece of gum, you don’t have a working mouth. Well, at least the app’s timer will change you back to human form in ten minutes, provided you avoid any unwanted intrusions.
As if fate is out to get you, your spearmint body picks up a series of tremors. Someone’s coming to your room!
“Big bro!” You recognize that cutesy voice. It’s your younger sister, Charlotte, wearing a frilly pink outfit! She’s looking for you! “You here, big bro?”
Oops, it seems like you’d forgotten to lock your door after Sophia went out. You really didn’t like when people entered your room without asking.
“Ooh, is that a piece of gum?!” Charlotte calls out as she spots you on the desk. You’re overcome by dizzying vertigo when her hand reaches down, snatches you up, and raises you toward her face. “Hmm…I wonder if big bro will be mad if I chew this?”
If you still had blood, it would run cold. “Sis, don’t you dare!” You try screaming, except the only sound that fills the room is that of your sister removing your wrapper.
”Eh, I’ll make it up to him later!” She shrugs, before opening her mouth and moving the gum toward it. You can see strands of saliva as you’re brought closer and closer to your little sister’s waiting maw.
In mere seconds, you’re placed on Charlotte’s tongue, already feeling her warm breath and a coating of spit all over your minty form. It only gets worse from here - your sister’s tongue maneuvers you onto her bottom teeth, at which point the top teeth come crashing down upon your helpless gum body. Then they rise back up before descending to crush you again and again.
Not only are you put off by the sensation of being masticated by Charlotte’s mighty molars, but also by the fact that you’re inside your little sister’s mouth in the first place. You’ve got to do something!
“Sis, stop! I’m your gum! Get me out of your mouth!” You try screaming, but are only met with the continued crushing motions of Charlotte’s pearly whites upon your spearmint self.
Trying to stay calm, you remember that the timer was set to 10 minutes. If you can just endure this for a bit longer, your flavor will run out and you’ll be fine…right?
