HI, my name is Kiki. I am a very small Fearie called a Bing. We are highly intelligent and smaller then the regular eye can see. I am here to tell everyone to stay away form humans. Let me tell you why. It all started about three days ago. I was looking or some food at a local bakery. See Bings eat human food and since we are so small we eat off the food in restaurants and bakery’s and such. Well, as I was saying, about three days ago I was hit by the most delicious smell. I looked all around the baker when I saw it. The biggest, the most delicious looking pastry I had ever seen in my twenty years of living. It was just sitting all by itself on a nearby table. I strolled over to the table so my friends wouldn’t become suspicious. then I quickly flew t the top of the table. I was just about to dig into the most wonderful meal I had ever had when the pastry started to shake. Then it started to rise. Then I saw what was going on. It was the most ugly thing I had ever seen. A HUMAN!!!!!!!!!! I was so sca d I couldn’t move. All at once the poor pastry and I were shoved into the humans mouth. It was so scary to be shoved into a black hole. My people had warned me about humans and there torture habits. When I was inside the mouth, the teeth started ripping p the pastry into very small pieces. I had to think fast before I was shred to pieces. All of a sudden I ran to the back of the tongue and grabbed hold of the uvula. I watched the pastry being softened by the mucus. I was afraid the mucus was going to g on me. I had no idea what I was about to go through. Older Bings had talked about the Digestive System, but most Bings don’t survive it to tell us what happens. Then before I could say HELP the Human swallowed. I held on to the uvula as hard as I coul but the force was too strong. I was now being carried down the esophagus with the little bits of the pastry. The esophagus is a long dark tube that connects the mouth and stomach. I tried to climb back up the layers of visceral muscles but the contracti s of the esophagus were too strong and forced me down. Then the pastry and I fell into the stomach. I noticed the three gastric glands secreting different juices in to the stomach from tiny tubes that open from a type of the thick wall from the stomach. ne secreted an enzyme called pepsin. Another secreted hydrochloric acid. Then the last secreted more mucus. All three secretions mix and make something called gastric juice. The mucus that was produced covered the lining of the stomach and protected it om the acidic gastric fluid. I stayed floating in the stomach with what was left of the pastry for about two and a half hours. I wanted to go home to my family and friends. I was really scared and bored. I missed having my friends. I was lonely. I started to feel sick because the tomach kept churning back and forth in a circular motion to break up the food and mix it with the gastric fluid. After the food mixes thoroughly with the gastric fluid it becomes a thick fluid. It is released in small amounts in to the small intestine. e pyloric valve opens and closes very few seconds. When I passed through I entered the first part of the small intestine called the duodenum. Then I passed through the second and third part called the jejunum and ileum. Tiny glands secreted intestinal f id as I passed through the small intestine. The intestinal fluid neutralizes the acid secreted by the stomach. Secretions from the Liver and pancreas entered the small intestine without any warning. I was starting to get really scares now. The liver sec ted bile and the pancreas secreted pancreatic fluid. then I was let into the large intestine I saw water being absorbed from the food by the colon. The colon takes the water to the tissues in the human body. What is left from the food becomes waste. It comes solid when all the water is absorbed. this is the part of the digestive system were most Bings die. The solid that was food is called the feces. The feces and I were past to the end of the large intestine called the rectum where we were soon eliminated through the anal opening. I flew away as soon as I was out. I was so glad to be out of that horrible human. Then I realized I had survived the digestive system!! I flew home as quickly as possible and took a shower and but on a set of clean clothes When my family came home I told them the story of my worst experience of my life. My family and friends were overjoyed that I was alive and they told me about how much they were worried about me. So , I am warning all creatures small enough to be swallo d. Stay away from humans! It is not fun at all to go through the digestive system. It is a good learning experience but I don’t want to do it again.
