Chapter 156. Feeding Seymour
The man in the shop had sold Bobby the young sapling.
"It is lovely plant, one of the Venus Fly Trap family. Exotic and different than your usual ones. They live for long time. Yours for only £5." The shopkeeper had said.
Six months later and Bobby hadn’t expected the plant he purchased to have grown to the size it had. Standing over 6'00'' the creature also had the ability to talk and this was one area that Bobby didn’t mind as he could laugh and joke with the plant he had named 'Seymour'
Seymour would only speak and act human when it was only Bobby around, when Bobby's girlfriend or mum were present it just acted like a dumb plant.
However things were soon about to change for Bobby.
Standing around 6'00 blonde haired blue eyed hunk Zac was one of the most popular guys at the gym. His perfectly toned physique saw him become the envy of most of the male gym goers who desperately wanted to acquire one like Zac's themselves.
However unlike most gym Adonis’s Zac didn’t have a cocky attitude or a large ego. The muscle bound hunk never forgot that he was bullied as a teenager due to his squaney physique and it was only when he reached 18 did Zac decide to do something and attended the gym eventually reaching the physique he now got. This was the main reason he now tried to help his fellow gym goers with workout and nutritional tips. It was this way that Zac met Bobby and the two soon formed a good relationship that saw both become workout buddies.
It was this relationship that saw Zac turn to Bobby when he was made homeless. The popular gym hunk now asked Bobby if he could stay with him whilst he sorted things out.
Bobby liked Zac, the two were friends and got on well and with his mother spending most of her time at her new boyfriends house Bobby had the space and told Zac he was only too happy to accommodate him.
Later that day Zac moved his stuff in, fresh from a session at the gym the hunk wearing a dark vest and track bottoms settled into his new surroundings.
Zac immediately took an interest into the large plant that grew in Bobby's conservatory. He'd never seen one that big and was amazed at how Bobby had come across it and chuckled at the name it had been given. "Seymour, Seymour nobody calls anything a name like Seymour." Zac joked as told his gym buddy that he couldn’t wait to see the plant finally open up. Bobby however kept his secret and decided not to say anything about Seymour's ability to talk.
As the two friends left the room Seymour watched Zac and his eyes on the blonde haired hunk.
Bobby's girlfriend’s nose had been put out of place by Zac's arrival, it meant the two didn’t have as much privacy as they wanted. Bobby told her to stop being dramatic and he was only helping a friend in need.
Zac had settled into living at Bobby's and the two gym partners enjoyed each other’s company. Zac loved working out on his body and seeing the latest effects on his physique was something he loved to see this meant wearing minimal clothing and Zac was always strutting around in nothing more than a pair of underwear and today was no different as Zac wandered about the house in a pair of tight black briefs. He stopped in the kitchen to make himself a drink unaware that Seymour's eyes were fixed solely on him and the plants tongue licked its lips.
Seymour hadn’t been completely honest with Bobby about where he'd come from. The plant had actually started as a spore that had been transported from another dimension where the cruel rulers of the planet fed the rebellious human male population to Seymour’s species. The taste of human flesh was inducted into Seymour and the sight of Zac's strolling around in little clothing saw Seymour's natural urges quickly come to the fore.
That evening whilst Zac was preoccupied Seymour revealed his dastardly secret to Bobby who was astonished to hear such a thing.
What he heard next saw him freeze in fear as Seymour shouted "Feed me."
"Wh.Wh.What do you mean?" Bobby asked not really sure if he heard what he thought he heard.
"Feed me." Seymour repeated reiterating the fact he wanted food.
"Wait I’ll get you some plant food." Bobby said as he turned towards the shelf.
"Urghh. No more plant food." Seymour replied as he licked his lips.
"I..I don’t have any other food!" Bobby replied worried about what Seymour was going to say next.
The carnivorous plant looked at Bobby "Yes you do." Seymour replied with an evil look in his eyes.
Bobby gulped "You don’t mean!"
"Yes Zac." Seymour bellowed "My species only eat young men, physically fit, great aesthetics and bodies. Zac is perfect, he looks tasty."
"No fucking way." Bobby replied "He's my friend I’m not going to kill my best friend."
Seymour laughed "Yes you will. Because if you don’t maybe I eat you or better still I eat your mother or even your girlfriend."
"Bbbbbbut you said you only eat young men, so why would you eat my mother or girlfriend. You're bluffing?"
"When hungry you eat anything." Seymour answered before adding "Do you want to run the risk? Now feed me Zac!"
Bobby thought long and hard about it, he knew that Seymour was not going to back down and he couldn’t allow the creature to kill his mother or girlfriend he loved so much. He only had one option left and knew what he had to do.
"Ok. Ok I’ll do what you want, just leave my family alone."
"Very good." Seymour replied "I look forward to it."
Bobby watched as one of Seymour's tendrils disappeared upstairs to get another look at Zac. Seymour could see that the sexy hunk soaked himself in the bath, completely unaware to the fate that now awaited him.
Bobby tried to psch himself up, he was no killer, he even struggled to kill a spider or fly, but now he had to kill his friend. Someone he had known for a few years and one of the few people he actually really liked. Bobby crept up the stairs with a hammer in one hand and prepared to do a deed he knew would haunt him for a while.
He stopped outside of Zac's room and peering through the crack in the door he observed his gym buddy was wrapped in nothing more than a towel.
Looking down he spotted Seymour's tendril that continued to observe its incoming meal.
Bobby gave the tendril a kick "Go away. If he spots you he'll know something is up." Seymour's tendril shot down the stairs as Bobby took in some deep breaths and said to himself "come on Bobby you can do this."
Bobby put the hammer in his back jean pocket and knocked on the door to Zac's room and was quickly invited in.
Zac had changed into a pair of white underwear that showed off his body well and the prominent bulge of his manhood at the front.
"Ah Bobby just the person" Zac said "I want you to tell me how my definition is when I pose for my back." Zac turned and now faced away from Bobby as he pulled a double bicep pose.
Knowing he couldn’t take Zac on one to one he knew the element of surprise was best. He took the hammer from his back pocket and slowly crept towards Zac.
"Well what do you think mate?" Zac asked as he grew a little impatient. "Do they look on point?"
"Lord forgive me please." Bobby said to himself as he brought the hammer crashing down on the back of Zac's head.
The muscle Adonis let out an "oomph." As he fell forwards onto his bed as Bobby rained blow upon blow down on Zac who now tried to plead with his friend to stop.
After about six blows Bobby stopped but to his surprise found that Zac was still well and truly alive and tried to crawl off of the bed and away as he asked Bobby why he attacked him.
Bobby dropped the hammer and now picked up the headphones for Zac's IPhone and wrapped them tightly around his friend’s neck. Zac now gasped for breath as Bobby strangled him, he tried to use his last bits of strength to claw at the ligature that tightened into his neck and then clutched at the duvet he lay on.
Death was near to Zac and he last words he heard were "Sorry Zac but if you were in my shoes you’d have no choice but to do the same." With that Zac let out a final gasp as his body stretched out and up before falling limply to the bed.
Killing Zac had been hard work and Bobby was now short of breath and breathing heavily. He turned his friend over and started to cry as he saw that Zac's blue eyes stare up at him. He gently ran his fingers through Zac's hair as he rocked the head slightly and repeated the words "I'm sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry." Over and over again.
However Bobby knew things were not over yet and carefully dragged Zac's body down the stairs and into the room that contained Seymour.
"There you go. Now quickly get this done." Bobby said as he placed Zac's limp body at the foot of Seymour's pot.
He turned around not wanting to see his friend devoured and placed his fingers in his ears as he did not want to hear the sound Zac's bones cracking and his body being chewed.
A few minutes later Bobby turned around to see Zac still lay on the floor as Seymour looked at him with a confused look.
"He looks delicious." Seymour said as he again licked his lips. "But what do you expect me to do with that? Chop him up. NOW!"
"Wow, wow, wow wait a minute." Bobby said "You didn’t say a fucking thing about chopping him up. I won’t be doing that for no way Jose."
"On my home world we may eat whole because that is what we are forced to do but I am not there I am here and I want to savour every bite of your friend. Now cut him up." Seymour bellowed and reminding Bobby he would take no as an answer.
"No I will not do it. I just killed my best friend for you. I won’t cut him up as well." Bobby reiterated "if you are hungry enough you will eat him."
"Ok. If that’s how you want to play it we'll just leave him there to rot." Seymour replied "But tell me what time does your girlfriend come round?"
Knowing where this was going and knowing that he had no choice but to do what Seymour wanted Bobby picked up Zac's ankles and dragged him out of the room as he cursed under his breath.
Bobby had picked the sharpest knives and retrieved the axe from the shed. Zac was lain out on the floor as Bobby clenched one of Zac's powerful arms, closed his eyes and then began to cut.
The knife sliced through Zac's flesh and muscle like butter until he heard the sound of the blade now sawing through bone. This he could not take and immediately found himself starting to heave but perceived with the task at hand. Then all off a sudden he felt the arm loosen and upon opening his eyes realised he had been successful in cutting it off. Bobby lifted the severed arm up and then using a combination of a meat chopper and axe chopped it into four pieces, the meaty upper arm, elbow, lower arm and hand. All four pieces were put to one side as Bobby now turned his attention to Zac's other arm. Zac's vacant blue eyes continued to stare into oblivion but Bobby's mind was playing tricks on him as he could have sworn the eyes were following his every move. With that arm now gone Bobby moved onto Zac's amazing legs. These were further cut into six parts, the meaty thigh was cut into two pieces as was the long shin bone, leaving just the knee and foot.
With Zac now limbless Bobby turned his attention to removing Zac's head. He picked up the axe and closed his own eyes as he couldn’t bear to look Zac in the eyes as he cut his friends head off. It took two blows of the axe to remove Zac's head as Bobby now looked down at what was once his friend.
The perfect physique Zac's had worked on still looked good on his limbless torso but the reality was Zac now looked like a human jigsaw puzzle with parts of his body scattered about the place. He left Zac's underwear on thus allowing his gym buddy a last bit of dignity in dead.
Bobby now needed something to transport his dismembered friend to Seymour and grabbed a large black bin that had just been delivered to the house.
Seymour waited patiently as Bobby prepared his food. When Bobby returned covered in blood and wheeling the large bin Seymour knew it was now dinner time.
"Feed me, feed me, feed me." Seymour chanted as Bobby paused for a few moments then pulled the first piece of Zac out of the bin. Bobby tossed it into Seymour's mouth and watched as the plant devoured it before he began to shout "More, more, more."
This time Bobby pulled one of Zac's hands out which was quickly swallowed before part of one if Zac's thighs was eaten by the plant.
Midway through Seymour shouted "Zac is tasty. I want more." Bobby continued to feed parts of his best friend to Seymour until only his head and torso remained.
Bobby lifted Zac's head up out of the bin, Zac's blue eyes still stared into the abyss as Bobby again reiterated how sorry he was before throwing the severed head into Seymour's open mouth.
A loud gulp followed before Seymour shouted "Come on. Last bit."
Bobby now struggled to lift Zac's limbless torso out of the bin but eventually got a good grip and carefully placed it into the plants mouth.
He shuddered as a loud 'Crunch' followed as Seymour’s mouth closed on the fine physique. This was followed by more crunching and munching as Zac's torso was chewed up before being swallowed.
Knowing he had finally devoured the entire sexy muscle hunk Seymour let out a loud 'Burp.' As he joked "Zac agrees with me." The plant laughed before adding "but in all seriousness he tasted as good as he looked."
Bobby closed his eyes and nodded before looking at the last picture Zac had taken of himself just moments before he was killed.
"I'm gonna miss you Zac." Bobby said as he cried looking at the picture of Zac in nothing more than his underwear.
Zac's disappearance had not gone unnoticed at the gym and people constantly asked about his whereabouts. Bobby told them that Zac had gone back up north to his family.
He looked at one picture that showed Zac's great physique and was determined to build himself up to look like it, In lasting memory of Zac.
Back at home Seymour demanded Bobby's attention.
"Here I have something for you." Seymour said before regurgitating the two stud ear rings that Zac wore in his ears. Tears ran down Bobby's face as he looked at them. As he turned and left the room he could hear Seymour saying "You'll need to feed me again.. Soon."
