Heidi was the first of the girls to wake up, and it took her a few seconds to remember why she had woken up in an unfamiliar room, and why she had her arms wrapped around Padma, who was resting her head on Heidi’s shoulder. Suki was on her other side, having turned around in the night, and had her back snuggled against Heidi’s arm. Next she realized that they were all naked, which explained why she felt so clammy. It felt nice though, and for a while she did nothing but relish the moment, listening to her friends breathing softly and stroking their hair, knowing that this was the last day she would ever be able to spend with them. Suki was the next one to wake, and she turned around to face Heidi. She gave her a kiss on the arm and snuggled against it, not wanting to say anything in fear of waking Padma who was still sleeping soundly. After a little while there was a knock on the door, which woke Padma up. A woman entered, and dragged a food trolley after her. Heidi realized after a moment that it was the same woman who’d shown them to their room the day before.

“Good morning, girls!” She said in a soft, friendly voice. “Have you slept well?”

“Mhm,” Suki answered, still groggy from having just woken up.

“Excellent,” the woman said with a warm smile. “I’ve got some breakfast here for you. Suki and Padma, please be careful not to eat too much, but make sure to get something to drink, okay? For you, Heidi, you can eat as much as you want. You have about an hour until we need you downstairs, do you think you can find your way there?” Heidi nodded, it wasn’t the most complicated route to remember from the day before. “You don’t have to worry about showering, we have showers downstairs you can use. Do you have any questions?” she asked. Nothing but silence followed, and she took that as a no. “See you downstairs in one hour, then!” she said and left the room.

The girls checked out the breakfast. There was quite a selection of fruits, pastries and a couple of sandwiches.

“This looks delicious,” Suki said. “But I don’t have much of an appetite at the moment. I’m too excited, I think.”

“Me too! I’m really thirsty though, could you hand me the orange juice?” Padma said. Heidi passed it to her, while thinking about what she would like to start with, settling on a cheese sandwich.

“I’m sorry, but I’m really hungry. Do you mind if I dig in?” She said, afraid to upset her friends over the fact that they couldn’t eat much themselves.

“No, go ahead! You’re the one that’s going to need that energy, you know,” Suki answered with her usual cheeky tone. Heidi dug in, and sampled most of the dishes they’d been provided with before finishing. The others were satisfied with a glass of juice and some pieces of fruit each, while they kept Heidi company as she finished her meal. The girls chatted happily, eager to make the most out of what was probably their last private moment together. The conversation was lighthearted and centered mostly around trivial topics. None of them mentioned yesterday’s activities, though it was clear on everyone’s memory and made them feel even closer than they had been before. Before they knew it the hour had passed and it was time to make their way downstairs.

Once downstairs the girls were met by the same woman as earlier, who directed them towards the showers. Heidi shed her robe before entering, the others having opted to stay nude on their way down since they were going to be meat in a few hours anyway. The shower resembled the communal showers they were used to from schools and swimming halls, but unlike those there were screens around each shower head. There were also some objects hanging from the ceiling and close to the floor that looked like restraints, and the girls wondered what could be the use of them.

“It’s probably for naughty girls!” Suki remarked, and amused giggles followed from the others. They noticed that they were not alone in the room, as giggles and squeals erupted from a couple of cubicles down, followed by the sound of water hitting the tiled floor. The other girls were out of the group’s view so they couldn’t tell who they were, but from the sound of things they were up to something very naughty indeed. The group decided to give them some privacy and found a quite secluded cubicle at the other end of the room which was large enough to fit all three.

It felt nice to get cleaned off, as the girls felt rather grimy and dirty from the evening before, not to mention having spent a very sweaty, clammy bed during the night. The girls decided to shower on a rotation, so that two girls would clean the third at any given time. Of course they paid special attention to each other’s boobs, butts and pussies, but they made sure to cover every other inch of each other’s bodies as well. The water was warm and comfortable, and when they came out of the shower, having dried themselves off with towels, they all felt refreshed and ready to face the day.

They met the woman at the reception again, and she was now carrying a clipboard.

“Padma and Suki, right?” She asked the girls.

“That’s right!” Suki answered.

“Now, Heidi, do you want to watch or not?” If you’re squeamish it might be best to say goodbye to your friends here. It’s up to you, of course.” Heidi didn’t need to think long before she answered;

“Oh, I would definitely like to watch. If it’s okay with you, that is?”

“Of course, dear. If you change your mind though, please tell us right away. It’s your choice, and your friends,” she said. She then turned a little to address all three girls. “I think we are ready for you, then. Remember to do exactly as you’re told by the chefs, and don’t go running around without permission. We don’t want any accidents. Is that clear?”

The girls nodded in earnest, and the woman smiled. She then led the girls through a short corridor until they faced a big, double door. In contrast to the calmness outside, the kitchen was bustling with activity. There were girls everywhere, most of them around the trio's age, with just about every ethnicity and skin color represented, and an equal, if not greater, number of chefs were all busy with the butchering and preparation of them. Many of the girls were still very much alive, chatting, giggling, moaning and even sometimes screaming. Some were already dead and undergoing the various stages of butchering, and a number of the carcasses were still whole, the girl's heads still attached. Heidi noticed that most of them seemed to be smiling, even in death. Other places gutted and beheaded carcasses hanged from meat hooks alongside cuts of girlmeat, and at the table closest to the girls a chef was in the process of cutting meat into small pieces, after which they were no longer identifiable as human. The girls took a few moments to take in the sights, sounds and smells, before they spotted Eddie approaching them.

"Hello there, girls! How nice to see you again. How are you feeling?" he said with a welcoming smile on his face.

"Excited!" Padma answered. Suki was unusually quiet, and Heidi noticed that she was even paler than usual. Eddie, having many years of experience handling girls in this situation, grabbed her hand in a caring manner and stroked her cheek.

"Is everything alright, Suki?" he asked, with genuine concern in his voice.

"Umm, yeah, I think so. It's just so much to take in! It's really happening now, you know, and I'm very glad but also a bit nervous," she answered, finding it surprisingly comforting to be open up to him.

"What you're feeling is perfectly normal, we'll take it all very slowly and carefully. If you're not feeling comfortable at any moment, please tell me, okay?" Eddie said, before standing up again to address all the girls at once, though his right hand remained on Suki's shoulder. "I suggest we start with Suki first, if that's alright with you, Padma?" The Indian girl nodded. "Do you have any wishes as to how you want to go, Suki?"

"I haven't really thought about that, to be honest. I want it to be quick though, can you do that?"

"Of course, I know what to do then. How about you, Padma?"

"I have no idea. Do you have any suggestions?" she winked at him.

"I do think we have a brochure somewhere, let me see if I can get it for you. In the meantime, you girls can make your way to that corner over there," he said and pointed in the general direction before heading off. After one step though, he suddenly stopped and turned on his heel to face the girls again. "Oh, by the way, I just wanted to say how nice it is of you, Heidi, to be here and support your friends. It must mean a lot to them, I'm sure!" Heidi smiled at him, before he turned around and walked away, for real this time.

The friends made their way towards the corner Eddie had directed them to, and on the way they passed the two Mediterranean girls they had seen the day before. One of them was hanging by her arms from a bar in the ceiling, belly trust forward by a metal apparatus of some kind. It looked like she was going to be gutted, and by the way she ground her thighs together and moaned softly it looked like she was looking forward to it. Heidi gave the girls a polite smile, before she grabbed Suki's hand and pulled her along so she wouldn't see too much of what was going on. Padma stayed still for a few seconds, admiring the sight of the suspended girl's stunning body, before she continued onward to catch up with her friends, though she frequently cast curious glances towards the girls as she walked.

The girls reached their destination just as Eddie caught up to them, handing Padma an illustrated brochure detailing all the butchering methods available. She read it carefully while Eddie continued on with Suki. They stood right by a metal apparatus, which Eddie made Suki lay down on. It was inclined so that the girl was laying with her feet as the highest point, her head the lowest. Right over her neck there was a big metal box, which contained a blade that would be launched using powerful hydraulic pistons, severing her head clean off. Suki felt the tingles spread from her tummy to her whole body as soon as she realized what the machine was for. Heidi looked at it with admiration, before she knelt down to the floor and grabbed Suki's hand and stroked it softly. Suki grabbed Heidi's thumb and squeezed it, finding support in her friend. Eddie made several rounds around the girl, making sure that she was secured correctly and that the machine was operational.

"You're going to tell me before you, you know, … do it, right?" Suki asked.

"Of course, Suki, of course. We have plenty of time. I have to make some final checks before we start, so for now I recommend that you relax, take deep breaths, and get used to the situation. Take your time," Eddie said, bending down to hold her other hand.

"Ok, that's nice," Suki said, taking a deep breath to calm herself. The tingling was getting stronger, especially between her legs. "Thank you for being so nice, Eddie. I appreciate that a lot."

"How sweet of you to say that, Suki. You're doing really well." He crouched forward and stroked her jet-black hair tenderly. Suki closed her eyes and enjoyed how his touch sent tingles down her spine.

-SCHICK!-

Heidi jerked, startled by the loud, sudden sound. She felt Suki's hand squeeze her own really hard before it went totally limp. It took her a moment to realize what had just happened, and when she did, a cold, but arousing shiver went down her spine. She watched her friend's body convulse a few times before it went mostly still, only a few twitches erupting here and there. A shiny, metal blade was embedded in Suki's neck, separating it in two. An outline of red was visible on the metal where it had made contact with the girl's soft flesh. Heidi shuffled over to the other side of the blade, where Suki's head now rested in Eddie's hands, blood flowing out of her neck. She looked peaceful, eyes closed and a slight smile visible on her lips. The metal blade rose up slowly, revealing the cross-section of Suki's neck. Heidi could make out the contours of the esophagus, trachea and spine, severed cleanly by the razor-sharp blade. Copious amounts of blood flowed from the wound into a drain below. Under normal circumstances it would have grossed her out, perhaps making her faint or even vomit, but now she was instead overcome by fascination, awe and arousal.

"Fuck!" Padma erupted after a few moments of silence. She'd been masturbating to the illustrations and descriptions in the brochure when the blade suddenly released, sending a spark of arousal right to her pussy. The unexpected orgasm had forced her down on the floor, her legs no longer able to support her weight while powerful contractions went through her body. "That was so hot!"

"Totally!" Heidi agreed. "But look at her face, though. She's so beautiful!"

"Indeed she is, I think she went out the way she wanted. I don't think she felt much pain at all," Eddie said, still holding her dripping head in his hands. Apart from the paleness, she was as beautiful in death as she'd been in life.

"You kind of lied to her though, didn't you?" Heidi said, a cheeky grin appearing on her face.

"Well, sometimes it can be justified, can't it?" Eddie replied.

"I'm just kidding," Heidi said. "If she's looking down at us from heaven right now, I think she'll be cool with it!"

"What are you going to do with her head, by the way?" Padma asked.

"It's probably going to the gift shop, especially considering how beautiful this one is." Eddie replied, turning Suki's head slightly and squinting his eyes at it, as if he was appraising it."

"As a trophy?" Heidi asked, a bit naive as usual.

"Maybe, but I've heard that the other variety sell better. Such a cute one won't be sitting on the shelf too long before someone grabs it."

"The other kind?" Heidi asked, a puzzled expression still remaining on her face.

"The kind where the mouth is open and guys can stick their dicks in it to jack themselves off, stupid!" Padma said, teasing her more innocent-minded friend.

"Oh. Wow!" Although Heidi had grown up with the culture of cooking and eating young, naked girls, Heidi hadn't realized that men wanted to do things like that to girls as young as her. It triggered a small 'eureka' in her mind, and instantly made her even hornier. She wasn't totally aware of it at that point, but it would also change the way she looked at Eddie, as well as the people who would be watching her cook and later eating her flesh. "Are you going to turn us into those … toys, as well?" she asked.

"Padma is probably going to end up as one too. You're going to live cook so I don't think that's the plan as of yet. However, if you really wanted to, I'm sure we could arrange for it to be done!" Eddie responded.

"I'll have to think about it," Heidi said quietly.

"Just let me know tomorrow, okay?' Eddie said, and Heidi nodded in agreement. "As for you," he said to Padma, "there won't be a tomorrow, will there? Have you figured out how you want to go yet?"

"I have!" Padma declared with a cheeky grin and seductive, horny eyes. "Honestly, I can't wait to be snuffed!"

"Excellent!" Eddie said. "Let's get to it!"
