"Gotta stay focused," Steve said to himself with a smile. As much as he wanted to shrink that car and terrify the occupants inside, Steve's love for his daughter, Lisa, trumped anything else.
Walking the halls of the science building as quietly as he could, Steve's next goal was to check the security cameras. Perhaps they had captured where Lisa had gone. After all, her car was here, she must've been around here somewhere. Steve knew the only people in the building should've been Rosalita, the night time cleaning lady, and the security guard.
Steve walked up to his office and unlocked the door. Taking a seat in his favorite chair, he turned on his computer and began to wait for it to boot up. While this was happening, he felt an uncomfortable gurgle in his stomach. "Ugh, shit," Steve said, placing a hand on his gut. It must've been the metal on those tiny cars he ate that his stomach acids were trying to break down.
When his computer finally loaded, Steve pulled up a security surveillance program he had installed. He did not have access to cameras throughout the entire building, but did have access to the cameras outside of his lab. Steve began to watch the video from the camera outside of his white-walled testing room, unprepared for what he was about to discover.
Fast forwarding, Steve soon stopped when he saw Lisa enter the video. She walked down the hallway and opened the door to the size chamber. Steve's heart dropped. The realization of what may have occurred was beginning to come together in his mind. "C'mon, walk away," Steve whispered to himself; praying that Lisa didn't go in there. Much to Steve's delight, Lisa shut the door and walked back the way she came.
"Thank god," Steve said, quite content he did not accidentally shrink and eat his daughter. Then Lisa came back into shot. Steve continued to watch, horrified. This was like a bad dream of his worst case scenario playing out in front of his mind. He wanted the video to stop, for something to intervene. Lisa opened the door. Lisa entered the room. Lisa shut the door.
"No," Steve whispered as he began to fast forward. And then he saw it. The shot of the video that may haunt him forever: it was himself. Steve turned off the video; now realizing what had happened to his daughter. It was clear why Lisa hadn't come home earlier, although technically she did. He had swallowed her.
"Lisa," he said, his voice quivering. He placed his hand on his stomach. Then his brain snapped into high gear. Maybe she was still alive! There wasn't a second to waste. Steve dropped to his knees and stuck his finger down his throat. He successfully induced vomiting, spraying his nice carpet with green bile and partially digested ice cream.
Steve grabbed the shrink ray and aimed it at himself. He pulled the trigger until he was less than 1/8 of an inch tall. The shrink ray had successfully shrunk with him, but had temporarily been drained completely of power.
"Lisa?" Steve called out with tears in his eyes. He approached the putrid lake that had just been released from his stomach, the smell bad enough to make a man pass out. "Oh fuck," Steve said, covering his nose. The stench of his puke make him want to hurl again. "Lisa where are you?"
Steve was starting to see the remnants of his late night snack. Not only were there bits of banana and ice cream; but pieces of cars. Not just pieces, some of the cars hadn't digested yet and were still intact. Maybe Lisa was still alive.
Just then...
