It's her! The one, the only, everybody knows her name so she needs no introduction, but one will be given anyway... legendary explorer Tessa! She's very famous, and if one happened to maybe not know who she is, then they may want to study up on their lore. There are only a few explorers more famous than the formidable and tenacious Tessa. She's a short, light coffee skinned, brunette with a snaggle toothed smile and sharp green eyes that never miss a detail except when she can trip over it. Wearing her khaki vest and cargo shorts, she sets off this time into a strange and unknown woods. It's bright and sunny, but thick with brush, vines, and strange, vibrant plants.
"Awwww yeah! Unknown woods!" Tessa shouted, standing atop a large, half buried rock, arms raised above her head in victory. Victory, that is, in succeeding in getting lost. Still a victory though, even if a scary one. Because, as is known, the only real defeat an explorer as great as Tessa can face is finding a road.
"Reveal your secrets bright shrubbery!" Tessa jumped off the rock, landing with her gaze at her feet, posing as though she were a hulking creature. She imagined the earth shook under the force of her greatness and, as is known, when the formidable and tenacious Tessa imagines that her very arrival shakes the ground, then it does indeed tremble, and that is obviously why the entire forest's population of birds have just taken flight.
"Eh?" Tessa looked up, eyes scanning her suspicious surroundings. Slowly back and forth they scanned. One thing stood out. There was a strange looking flower, many of them. They were orange with a round gaping center and all about the size of her foot. Not too threatening, but...suspicious. They all grew in trails as if someone had planted them on a casual walk through the forest, tossing a seed with every step. A trail of them went off in three different directions. They were definitely not to be trusted, but too interesting to ignore.
"Uh-oh," Tessa said. "I hope this doesn't mean someone's been here." This definitely didn't look like a way flowers would naturally grow. There was one way to find out though. Tessa chose the trail in the center and trotted up to it. She eyed the first suspicious plant in the line, nudging it with the toe of her shoe.
squish, squish...
"It's squishy..." Other than that, it didn't do much. "Suspicious potatoes..." Tessa's gaze followed the line of flowers into the forest till they eventually disappeared behind drapes of vines. The question was: leave the flowers be, or follow the trail of oddities? What truly great explorer could refuse? So She followed them, walking alongside the trail of flowers in a confident power walk that no suspicious flowers would ever be able to stop.
"Alright flowers, where are you headed?" Tessa asked, pushing aside a curtain of thick vines, cool to the touch.
sniff...sniff sniff.
"Is that the flowers that smell like-wah!" Tessa's nose had just caught wind of a strange, sweet scent when her next step didn't have anything to step on. She tumbled forward, rolling across something spongy and falling perfectly upright in a round hole.
"Landed on my feet," Tessa said proudly. "Couldn't have...ewww what is this?" Busy being pleased with herself, she hadn't immediately noticed how slimy it was.
"Blech," Tessa scowled, shaking strands of thick, orange-ish slime from her hands. "Wait a sec...this is one of those flowers." Upon closer inspection, Tessa hadn't actually fallen into a hole, but the large, open center of one of the orange flowers. This one, however, was much larger. It's center alone could have held some of the tree trunks in it and each petal was large enough to use as a serving platter.
"Perhaps this was a bad idea," Tessa said.
Hup... uhhhhhh...hup...
"This was a bad idea!" Tessa had gone to step out of the flower and realized she couldn't move her feet. She didn't know what they were stuck in, but they were stuck.
"Stupid orange flower," Tessa slapped one of the petals. "Let me go!" The opening of the flower abruptly snapped shut around Tessa's hips with a loud slurp.
"What!" Tessa slapped the flower repeatedly . "That's the opposite of what I said. Let go, stupid! Let go!" The flower didn't listen, rather, it felt like it sucked her in deeper and Tessa could feel something slimy wriggling against her leg. Tessa continued to the slap the plant and attempting to pull herself free but, like quicksand, the harder she pulled the harder the flower sucked her in. Its petals started to move, curling inward and revealing that each had an opening at the petals tip, each petal curling in so the opening face her.
"Ehhheh," Tessa laughed. "I don't like thiiiiis. Mmmf!" Tessa stiffened, feeling something push up against her crotch. "Hey!" Tessa flushed. "What's the idea you pervy flower!" What felt like a slimy vine kept rubbing between her legs like it was trying to work its way into her shorts.
"Ah..." Tessa winced. "What is with this thing? Hey! Knock it o-" The petals around Tessa suddenly pulsed and with a loud hiss, let out a fog of bright pink mist. It was thick, crowded her nostrils and smelled like a concentrated vat of fermenting strawberries.
"Oh...oh wow..." Tessa went cross-eyed, unable to hold her breath, the sweet smell strangely intoxicating. "That smell...really is the flowers." Tessa huffed her words out, mind going as hazy as her vision. She relaxed and slumped forward, and didn't remember anything after that.
Tessa's eyes fluttered open to a rising sun peaking though gaps in the vines. Still in a daze, she wiggled her toes, flopping her feet back and forth.
"Did it...did it let me go?" Tessa yawned. Ahead of her, the large flower was closed up and several feet away. It seemed like Tessa had been propped up against a tree. The tiny beams of sun felt wonderful though and the dew laden grass was cool against her skin. She could feel it all the way up her legs.
"Am I...na...ked?" Tessa stopped, awake enough now to look at her feet. Not that they were different or, at least, they shouldn't have been. For one, she was missing her shoes and...
"Why are my feet green?" Tessa said. She raised a hand. "Why is my hand green? Why is my other hand green? Why am I green!" Tessa looked down, further confusion. It was like she was in a completely different body. She knew her breasts weren't this big. They were just a modest handful each, baseball sized. People always called boobs melons and while that description didn't work for her, it did for these. They were like cantaloupes or small watermelons.
"What the heck?" Tessa cupped them with her hands. "Mmm..." She flinched. They were strangely sensitive and lifting them made her chest tingle. Her nipples were already incredibly hard...too hard. She eyed them, pinching one lightly between her fingers.
