More from who again, wrote the story this time, and a fine tale it is too, as Gilda finds herself at the wrong end of the food chain, and the wrong end of a glass of alcohol.

<><><><><>

Gilda flapped her wings furiously, soaring down to her destination at a speed, to her, was super sonic. Gilda had invited Rainbow Dash and her friends to try out some Griffin cuisine, some drinks and even some challenges. A girls night out, so she was a "bit" angry that she had to fly back to their table the size of a Horsefly. (no,the irony was not lost on her)

She had left for a minute to freshen up, and as she was flying back, ZAP!!, she was hit with a magical Lazer and was shrunk down. She saw that it was Twilight, drunk off her ass, shooting random spells into the air. So now she was flying as fast as she could to Twilight, but as she grew close, Twilight's head fell with a think on the table. She quickly began snoring, Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy carried her off, saying they'll get a hotel room. Gilda couldn't believe it, she shrunk her and just passes out!? She finally reached the table, looking around for the other magic users Rarity and Starlight, no luck they weren't there. All that was left was Rainbow Dash and Applejack, who've been competing all night on who could drink the most mugs of Hard Cider.

"Alhritg Ajay, vthis will bge number 29, you ready?" Said RD, completely sloshed. "Brindg ilt on." AJ replied, half asleep herself. Holy cow 29!! Gilda thought to herself, she could barely handle 10 of those things. Gilda shook herself back to reality, she had more important things to do, like get RD to help her get her back to normal size. She began to fly up towards RD's face to get her attention. "HEY RD!!", she yelled, "SOBER UP A BIT WILL YA, I NEED YOUR HELP!!!"



Rainbow was having a great time. Having fun with all her friends, winning challenges, and Cider, never can have enough Cider. Although it looks like everypony but her and AJ have left, which was fine, all that was left was to beat AJ at most drinks. Which was gonna be easy by the look of her, even with three of her, she was looking ready to call it. Just one or two more mugs. Rainbow felt something like a bug buzzing next to her face, making some weird noises. It was annoying so she smacked it away. Unbeknownst to her, it fell right into the mug of Cider that she soon picked up. And with a grandiose toast. "Okie, on threie, whon, two,*hic* threje!" And with that she lifted the wodden mug against her lips and began to drink it's contents.



Gilda didn't know what had happened, first she was trying to talk to RD, then her world was a cyan blue, and now it's a sea of some sort. She allowed herself to float along the surface of the golden water as she regained her self. She noted the strong smell that permeated around her and, with a talon, lifted up a handful. "Is this….Cider? As she pondered this, she suddenly heard a voice, it was RD and she was counting down, what was going on. Her answer came as a shock as she felt this world begin to flow at an angle, looking up she saw the circular skyline become insure by a ghastly visage. It was RD, her mouth, to be precise. Gilda slowly came to realise what was happening, and as RD's mouth opened up, her heart sank.

Gilda quickly turned around and tried to take flight, but her wings were soaked and heavy, all she could do was swim. She vigorously flailed her forearms forward, trying to gain momentum as the liquor rushed pass her, she felt like she was trying to swim up a waterfall. Behind her the golden liquid fell into RD's awaiting gullet, pooling in the back of her throat before disappearing into it with a light "gulg". Gilda looked behind her to a dreadful sight, RD's mouth was getting closer, or to be precise, Gilda was getting closer to RD's mouth. She couldn't swim fast enough and was soon out of the mug, swimming in-between it and RD's mouth. However, this didn't last long as the last of the Cider exited the mug. With nowhere else to swim and incapable of flight, Gilda fell with the last of the Cider, sliding along the slick flesh of her friend's tongue, straight into the back of her throat with the last pool of Cider. She looked back towards the entrance of the mouth, only to come face first with the back of RD's tongue as it forced her down, followed by a loud "GULP!"



And that was number 29, Rainbow thought to herself, the world was getting so hazy now, but she couldn't give up. As she looked over to AJ, to access her situation, she felt something weird. Like something was at the back of her throat, but most of her senses were numb by this point, so she couldn't tell what it was. She attempted to swallow again, but it wouldn't go away, it was annoying. However, she had the perfect solution, ANOTHER DRINK!! she looked over to the orange blur that was Applejack, "Hei Ajay, zi'm goin foer wone morwe, kow bowt you?" Applejack groaned and slid her mug to Rainbow, "Tkaye min, iym tapkin owlt." After a few attempts, Rainbow managed to lift the mug off the table, she then lifted it over her head. "And wiyth thims." She then put the mug to her lips and began drinking.



Gilda opened her eyes, panting heavily, she did it. In the split second that RD had swallowed, Gilda was able to grab unto the back of her tongue, her talons sinking into the slightly bumpy surface. She tried to crawl her way up, but then RD swallowed again, threatening to send her down the dark tunnel. Gilda hung on, however, clinging for dear life. She thought to perhaps try yelling out to her again, but then RD began speaking herself. Not only was it extremely loud, coming from the base of her throat, the excessive movement had Gilda concentrating on maintaining her grip. Suddenly, Gilda watch as the teeth at the front, began to part, filling her with a speck of hope.
Only for it to be drowned out.

A familiar sight came flooding in the open maw, a sea of Cider rushing towards her. Gilda attempted to tighten her grip, but to no avail. The wave hit her hard, losing her grip and was forced down with an immediate gulp.
She slid down a fleshy tube as it continuously tightens around her with every one of RD's gulps. Eventually she reached a much tighter section of the throat, knowing full well what it was. And that even if she could've prevented herself from going through it before, there was no way to stop herself *and* all the liquid forcing her down.



"Gulp, gulp, gulp" Rainbow chugged the contents of the mug vigorously, savoring the the crispy taste of the liquor. A few gulps more and the mug was emptied, all of it's contents flowing down her throat and into her stomach. After that she opened her eyes, she did it, 30 mugs, she was the winner. However she was getting tired, allowing her head to fall ontop the table with a "plap". She lifted the mug over her head and with a giggle, "I win"



As Gilda fell through the opening to RD's stomach, she plummeted into yet another sea of Cider, she twirled and spined under the surface as the rest of the rest of the Cider above her spilled out the entrance. Soon after that, Gilda sprang out from beneath the waves, gasping for air. Air that she immediately used "Damnit RD, you SWALLOWED ME!!! LET ME OUT!!" But it was to no avail, with the constant gurgling and bubbling, Gilda could hardly hear herself. She then tried to scan her new environment, a constantly moving skyline with the equally moving sea of liquor gave her a slight motion sickness. But she was able to detect an island of sorts above the waves, nearby too.

It was the top of a burger, but not just any burger. It was a Ruberg (tied stack) Tower, Gilda had forgotten she'd challenged RD go swallow it in one bite. She frantically swam towards it in the ever moving sea, using her wings to try and gain speed. Eventually, she reached the Tower, clawing her way up the side and laying out on the top, catching her breath. She stood up, looking around one last time, she was safe now. But she couldn't stay here, the Burger would dissolve eventually, she had to think of a way out. First she'd let herself dry off, then she would think, think of ... something.

The End
