She kept on kneeding until the chocolate chips were thouroughly distributed.<br/><br/>The sushi appetisers were complete, all three kinds, and all the mini-Ray's were incorporated into them.

Ray quickly found out in many separate ways, the various ways people could eat sushi.<br/><br/>Some just chowed down, chewing him up in one go, some bit his sushi piece, and him in half, or nibbled him away piece by piece, head or feet first, and some even saved him, and swallowed him, or his part body, in the case of the maki sushi, whole. Whichever way they did it, he ended up in the same place, and feeling the whole process. He felt everything, not that it hurt, infact the warmth and chewing actions were quite comfortable. As each of them reached the stomach, whatever state they were in, each Ray's consciousness faded out.
