Follow Nicole Family's New Shrink Ray chapter 21 by copier · original author: jurto2

Nicole looked down as the capsule took its time being squeezed down the esophagus. Katie's esophagus was slowly passing by Nicole's window, giving her a good look at all of the veins along the smooth, fleshy tunnel.

The heartbeat became overwhelmingly loud as Nicole passed the heart on her trip down the esophagus, but quieted down as the esophagus took her away from it again. She eventually made her way to the Lower Esophageal Sphincter, which almost seemed to stop and think about whether or not to let it pass.

The sphincter itself looked a little bit red and streaky, almost like the streaks and stripes on the outside of a watermelon, just in fleshy colors. (They'd later mark it down as Barret's Esophagus ▶︎
Quoth Johns Hopkins Medicine: "Barrett's esophagus is a complication of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). GERD is a condition in which the stomach contents, including acid, reflux into the esophagus. Barrett's esophagus occurs when the lining of the esophagus heals abnormally and changes from cells that look like skin to cells that look like intestinal cells." https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/c...
)

As the capsule strained against it, and pushed by the musculature behind it, the sphincter opened and allowed the capsule to be pushed into Katie's stomach. The sphincter then opened again to allow some more water and a little air from her hasty drinking into the stomach.

As the capsule floated along in the empty stomach, Nicole took video and pictures of the inside of Katie's stomach. Nothing looked out of place according to her knowledge of the digestive system, so she worked on the digestive system presentation for her class.

The world jiggles and sloshes around as Katie moved around, but eventually settled down, leaving only her heartbeat, the sound of her breathing, and the gurgling of air moving around the digestive tract.
