The crowd burst into cheers for the performers, the sounds of applause filling the whole room. The singers and dancers bowed and walked to the front of the stage, quickly joined by the actresses and actors. “It felt so weird to finally perform in front of spectators, but it was good training for tonight. Speaking of which, do you have any suggestions, or questions?” One of the gymnasts in the center asked to the meatgirls. Molly raised her hand first: “Why does the choir wear clothes? In this situation it clashes with the other performances. And believe me, it’s way better.” She jiggled her own ass to prove her point. Most of the choir’s singers blushed at the mention that they should be naked. They didn’t really know how to react, at this moment their supervising adult intervened. “We didn’t plan to have a naked performance, and we wouldn’t want to force this on the ones who don’t feel at ease naked.” Though, it did give Melody an idea. “But that is a good argument, maybe we could plan this for the next time we have a choir here.” Which led to a few chuckles in the crowd.

Lily raised her hand next. “Why don’t you use actual meatgirls for the cannibal skits? I wouldn’t mind boiling alive on stage if you want, I did some acting. It wouldn’t be difficult to do and would bring a lot of pros.” The three actresses acted overly annoyed by the meatgirl that wanted to take their places. “Oh no! We came here to play and we’re keeping our roles! But I love this idea! Miss Melody, would it be possible for us to die on stage once the law passes?” Melody pondered whether they could manage a lit fire on stage, but this seemed possible. “I can’t promise you anything, but probably.” And all three actresses screamed in joy.

After that Julie spoke. “I just want to say that I loved the routines you showed us, they looked really good and well-crafted!” All of them looked touched by her words. “Thank you, this event is also really important to us, so we did our best. For some of us gymnastics was actually just a way to get their meat in shape before being served.” This started a lot of chatting in the crowd. “Wow that’s nice! I didn’t think of that!” And another “I would have loved to do something like that before volunteering!” Which made the gymnast think of something. “Miss Melody, can we use our show to recruit new girls for our club? We could explain that it’s a great way to get fit before the spit!” Which made her laugh. “Haha, of course, if that’s what you want, I see no reasons to refuse. We would love some more lean meat!” Which this time made everyone laugh.

“We could also use this opportunity to circulate some of the volunteering forms.” She continued, everyone looked at her with round eyes. “What do you mean volunteering forms?” Some of the performers asked her. “Ah I didn’t tell you yet. We received some forms for young girls to pre-volunteer for getting cooked. I think I should get you some.” She fetched a large pile of documents from her office and distributed them to the performers and statues so they could take a look, but as she collected them back, they were all already signed by all the girls there, even the youngest, despite the fact that they would have to wait longer. “Wow! You really are determined! These forms will only give you priority to be killed for your meat, it won’t force you in case you want to change your mind.” But none of them would change their minds, so this basically turned them into meatgirls just like the rest here.

After the questions and answers, the performers took a break to relax and chat a bit. The whole rehearsal lasted for about forty minutes. The deadline for the part girls approached, and since they estimated that they saw what there was to see, a very large chunk of them left to be butchered. A smaller chunk left during the second rehearsal, most after the music parts.

At 5:30 PM, the performers went on break and Melody received another call. “Lara, we have another group to welcome.” Her assistant nodded and jumped onto her feet. At the entrance a team of twenty girls entered smiling and chatting, all naked from head to toes. Lara rushed and discussed with them. At the same time Melody’s phone rang again. “Hello? Yes… WHAT?! Oh no… No, that’s... Sorry I’ll call you back later.” Lara hugged her leg to console her. Meanwhile Dan exited the lift with a large food cart filled to the brim, more then forty severed heads almost overflowed on the top layer, and as many full pelts on the bottom one. The chef also noticed Melody’s concerned expression. “Is there a problem?” He and Lara asked at about the same time.

“Yeah, we planned to have a fashion parade with meatgirls wearing girl-leather designer clothes, but both the girls and the clothes are held up at customs and none of them can be delivered on time. That’s unfortunate in itself, but now it means we have a hole in our schedule, so I’ll have to find something on short notice to keep the full hour of performance advertised.” Lara tried to think of something but Dan suggested his idea first. “I could do it. I just need to get on stage for what? 15 minutes? I could manage. I’m sure all those British girls would love to learn more details about being a meatgirl. I’d grab two spit girls and explain how to get in shape, what proportions we want, and how the different cuts are used. This will go smoothly” Melody looked at him with thankful eyes. “Thank you, thank you so much! I’ll be able to focus on those girls.” Dan smiled and drove the cart to Arthur’s shop, meanwhile Lara guided the group of girls to the dining area.

Inside the room, Annie had finished the statues and now put some light makeup on the explorer actresses, some white foundation on their whole bodies. Lara guided the team to the makeup station near the large fountain. “Annie! The mermaids are here!” At those words the rest of the meatgirls jumped on them. “Wow! Who are you? What will you do?” The leader of the team smiled and answered their questions. “We’re the local swimming team, we’re going to be decorating the room, just like the statues.” She pointed to one of the girls painted grey. “But we’ll be inside this large fountain and swim like mermaids!” The crowd of meatgirls let out some ‘Oooh!’s of surprise and admiration.

They followed the group as Annie finished the third actress. “Darling, that is nice to hear. I’ll prepare them right away! Could you be a doll and fetch the tails and wigs for me?” Lara gave her a nod and ran to gather what Annie asked. The makeup-artist prepared a bench for the mermaids-to-be to lay on. The boss of their group settled in first, and Annie applied some prosthetic mermaid scales all over her body until Lara brought her the tails and wigs. Melody distributed them some pre-volunteering forms that they all signed without a second thought.

Annie and Lara slid her toned legs into the high-quality tail, it only covered her legs and left her whole rump, butt and pussy fully exposed. Annie then blended the tail with the swimmer's buttocks until it looked like her very own. She did the same with the bright blue wig, and finally covered her whole body with glitter and water-protection spray. “And this canvas is completed. Lara darling, could you release her into the water please?”

Lara grabbed the mermaid by her ribs and brought her to the fountain as the next one took her place. While Annie applied the scales, Lara helped the rest put on their wigs and tails. They kept going on for a bit, in half an hour they released about half of the fishes into the water. Melody grabbed Lara’s shoulder. “It’s time, do you want to tell them?” She quickly nodded as her eyes bubbled. “Oh yes please!” Melody just gave her a short slap on her rump and Lara rushed to the center of the room, standing on a table with a Sidney head between her feet. “Everyone! It is now 6:00 PM. Every part girl still alive, please go to the kitchen to be killed. The cooks will need to work on your meat very soon. Thank you again!” About a dozen girls finished their chat and left to their deaths.

Lara smiled and strolled back to Annie’s workstation. It took them another half hour to completely finish the makeup for the mermaids, and proceed with the rest of the performers. The statues already held their poses inside the alcoves. When two naked girls and their mother entered through the doors, Melody greeted them first, but not happily. “Four hours… four and a half hours late. Your friends performed 3 times, the mermaids had enough time to arrive and get ready, and all the part girls are already butchered. Could you explain?” Both girls got embarrassed and blushed slightly, their mother gave them a similar glance than Melody’s. “There has been a… mix up, with the destinations.” She explained.

Melody sighed and guided the girls to Annie. “The performers will get priority for the makeup, if there’s enough time after that, if not you’ll have to pose with a toga!” The threat horrified both girls. “Oh no!” But Annie reassured them: “Do not worry little canvases, I’m almost done here. I will have plenty of time for you.” Which seemed to relieve them a little bit.

Not long after, Dan and a dozen cooks arrived into the dinning room with some utensils. “Everyone! We will now begin the cooking of the whole roasters! We’ll roast you all one at a time and it’ll take a while.” Lara jumped back into her assistant role. “That’s true! I forgot we start so early.” Dan patted her head. “That’s right, we need to start early if we want to have one set of girls already cooked. This way we can present a whole set ready to carve and fill the room with delicious scent of freshly roasted meat. Any volunteers?”

A lot of them wanted to volunteer, but they were lost in thought, picturing the carving table with their own meat’s roasted smell. The first one to step up was Jiang. “If you are looking for a good aroma to greet the guests, then you should pick me for the oven! I am to be roasted with a teriyaki sauce. You won’t find anything better!” With Irene, her rival, close behind. “And for some good-looking meat, you couldn’t find anyone better than me!” She showed her ribs. And finally May with her simple expression: “I can boil.”

The cooks led them all to the roasting area in the back of the room, just beside the carving buffet. “Perfect! We’ll get you ready!” The group of professionals grabbed their tools and thoroughly washed the three young meats, they rubbed their skin with salts to get rid of dead skin and rinsed them again. “Wow! It feels so… intense? I feel everything more keenly, especially with what’s next.” Jiang mentioned, and Irene added “I feel even more naked right now, which is lovely”. Dan grabbed the next utensils and asked. “Before I continue, I need to know if you want your head to be preserved or if you want it roasted so it can be eaten. Do not worry, you’ll be able to roast alive either way, I’ll just have to cover it with this gel.” He showed a pot of paint filled with a transparent blue gel.

Irene responded instantly: “Preserved, of course! This beauty deserves to end up on a collector’s shelf.” Jiang just one step behind. “And I want my head roasted! So that people can enjoy as much of my body as possible!” While May just shrugged. “Anything is fine, cooked I think?” and the cooks then started the real preparations. Dan, while massaging a variety of spices deep into Irene’s flesh, also made sure her head was completely slathered by the gel. On her right, another cook covered Jiang’s face with teriyaki sauce, before going down to her breasts. And on the other side, May helped her cook fill up the large cauldron with several dozen liters of girl stock, as they added the vegetables to the pot.

Next she added the vegetables as the cook sliced them. Dan covered Irene’s fit body with a thin layer of rendered girl fat before having her lay down on the spitting table. Once Jiang got completely covered in teriyaki, her cook lowered her onto the tray to fill her with the meatgirl stuffing and some noodles, before sealing her holes with some daikons.

The oven roast’s cook added some pineapple slices, sesame seeds and multiple vegetables as she secured her to the tray. Jiang then made a victory sign before being slid inside the oven and the glass door closed. May simply stepped inside the slightly bubbling water and sat down in the hot pot. She just waved to her friends as she lowered her meat deeper. Irene barely struggled as Dan gently rammed the spit throught her pussy, she managed to stay perfectly still around the steel pole moving throught her inside and piercing her womb. She felt every one of its movements as it passed through her belly and chest, as her throat tightened around it, and finally as it came out of her smile. She was fully spitted now. With her mouth now plugged, she could only give her friends a thumb up as Dan slid the large stabiliser inside her ass. A few seconds later she started turning over the fire.

Every single one of the remaining meatgirls observed from a few meters away in awe at their friends slowly roasting alive. All had a mix of envy and admiration. They had their eyes glued to their friends for half an hour, watching their bodies progressively taint light brown, and Irene steadily rotating over the fire. The meats were set on a very low heat so they’d last as long as possible and draw out the most flavours, since they had some time left before the opening. It meant the roasts were perfectly conscious for quite a while.

Gradually, the meatgirls watching stopped watching actively and resumed their chats with their friends, treating the roasts as a pleasant background decoration and scent diffuser. Lara and her remaining friends looked more closely as Dan basted Irene. “She smells so good!! How long do you think she’ll last?” She asked. “She’s a pretty toned girl, I’m sure she has what it takes, so I’d say still quite a while, which on the spit is impressive.” He gave her rare ass a slap. The group let out a few ‘Oh!’s before Julie spoke up. “Mister, can my head be made to look like Sidney too?” She pointed to the heads decorating the tables as centerpieces. “I’d have to check with Arthur, but you should pass with no issues. If you want to be able to be sold today, you’ll need to roast soon though.” Her eyes lit up. “Oh yes please!” He smiled and checked her bracelet. “Sure, I’ll reserve you the next spot in the oven.” which made her very happy. The group moved away from their rotating friend, to resume their chat around a table.

The cooking meats looked at them a bit and May chatted with them here and there. After another half an hour the restaurant’s grand opening neared. Jiang May and Irene drifted from consciousness, they blinked once in a while to catch glimpses of Lara and the others. Dan walked to Melody’s side to announce the next step. “Every meat, now that we are started with the first set, we’ll do the basic preparations on you all. Please all move to the preparation room in the back of the carving area.” He moved his arm to indicate the place.

All the remaining 72 naked meatgirls, mixed between the naked dancers and naked gymnasts, moved away from the group. This included Lara’s friends but not Lara’s herself. Melody patted her head to reassure her. “Don’t worry. You’ll make a wonderful roast sooner or later.” She exaggeratedly pouted to cover-up what she actually felt, and turn it into a joke.

At this point Melody received another call for the night’s preparations, she moved away slightly to take it. Melody spent the whole call not speaking a word but making small agreement noises. It sounded contained. She walked back to Lara and patted her head again.

“Good news, I just got a call from the lawyers…” At this point, Lara was already overexcited. “There’s a new case law. A young Japanese American girl in your situation is being butchered and served as we speak in Japan. This is really early there so I don’t know…” But she stopped seeing Lara’s round eyes, filled with stars and tears of joy. “Go on, join your friends.” She silently nodded as a thank you sign, and ran with all her strength to the preparation room.

Inside the room she saw large showers as a bunch of cooks rubbed salts deep into the meatgirls. Lara happily strolled over to her friends getting scrubbed by Dan. “Lara why are you here? Wait, does that mean.” She stood proudly in front of them. “Indeed it does! The lawyers just called! I am now officially part of the meat inventory of the first British Sidney restaurant! And to be roasted tonight of course!” She let out a chuckle of pride, as all of her remaining friends jumped on her to congratulate her. Their eight bodies snuggled tightly together as Dan resumed scrubbing them one by one with the salts. Once he did everyone, he rinsed them down with one of the shower heads and sent them back to the dining area.

They chatted for a few minutes as Julie pointed to their friends. “Looks like Irene is dead.” Dan pricked her buttock with a meat thermometer. “Yup, and she’s done too. The others are most likely dead too. Hey! Let’s move them to the carving buffet.” The cooks nodded and helped him remove Irene from the spit, and onto a tray. Her meat fell like a rag doll. He chopped off her head and moved on to the other meats. A staff member fished May’s body from the pot and deboned her meat before tossing it back inside. As they opened the oven to reveal Jiang’s golden corpse, her heavenly smell submerged the whole room, she was right on this point. Both of Irene’s and Jiang’s carcasses were displayed on the buffet, they even posed Irene’s into a headless idol sitting on the carving board, speading her legs to offer her filet to the first customer.

Behind them appeared the three heads, two of them golden brown. May didn’t have her body on the buffet, but they put a note under her head. “Taste me in the stew”. Jiang’s and May’s severed heads looked ridiculous with half-open mouths and eyes, only Irene manged to keep her chin high and mighty through death. Thankfully Dan modeled the two severed heads into smiling faces.

He finished plating the meats by carving slices in advance. First he cut through Irene’s thighs to make thick slices. The cooking juices overflowed onto the carving board. Next, for Jiang, he set her up curled in on herself, he sliced around her ribs to make them easier to pick up, and into her rump. It freed the amazing smell of her meat, and allowed the sauce to sink deeper inside.

This completed the perfect display, which left the cooking stations empty. “We’ll proceed to the next set.” He pointed to Julie, Nadia, and a spit roaster in the back with her hand up. “Please get over here.” The three rushed to him. Dan prepared the spit-roast just like Irene, while Nadia stepped into the cauldron, sliding into several kilos of May’s meat.

Julie had a different preparation to Jiang’s unique one. Her cook filled her only with meat and vegetables, and plugged her holes with small onions. He brushed her body with rendered girl fat, and covered her face with the preservation gel before sliding the small girl inside the hot oven. All three girls settled neatly inside their stations, oven, spit, and pot, as they enjoyed this warm feeling.

Once he set everything Dan walked over to Lara. “Congratulations once again, little meat! We have a bit of time before we open, I can inspect your flesh to point you toward spit, stew or oven.” But she only scoffed with exaggerated pride. “Who do you think I am? Of course I already had my meat graded!” She reached into her hair, the only place she could hold something on her naked body, to show him a red bracelet. “I am a spit girl through and through!” She claimed as she slapped the bracelet around her wrist

As the second set of meatgirls simmered, the opening time grew close, only minutes away. Lara and Melody explained the last details to the other meatgirls. “Everyone! We’ll open the restaurant in a few minutes. The performers will need to wait in the staff room or behind the stage, we’ll begin the entertainment shortly. The statues and mermaids, you are already in place and we thank you, but remember that you must hold it for the next hours. And the meatgirls, you can wait in the staff room to discuss with the performers, or between yourself, since you can be louder there. You can also stay with us in the main room and talk with the guests during the evening. Once again thank you all, and enjoy this night!”

She turned toward Lara “So where are you staying, meatgirl?” she teased. Lara smiled and replied “Of course I’ll stay here! I’ll do the opening with you and I wouldn’t miss Dan’s presentation. It would also be fun to chat with the customers who will eat me.” The manager smiled as she and her assistant walked to the building entrance. They opened the doors to let the customers already waiting enter the restaurant. Lara chuckled as she watched the guests react the to the Sidney wax model and the display she helped set up.

Lara guided the first group of customers to their seats herself, they did seem to enjoy being seated by the young naked girl, especially the boys. The room’s tables filled up quickly, the different families being surprised and amused by the living statues and mermaids, and even more astonished by the large amount of pelt decorations on the ground and on the walls, the marble and Sidney statues, and the numerous Sidney centerpieces.

Once the guests filled every table, Orin Roebuck and Melody both officially opened the restaurant with their speeches. After they left the stage, the music played, and the theater comedians entered to act their musical skit. They wore some light makeup that brought out their facial expressions, and soon their naked bodies, as the actors stripped them. Lara heard some hearty laughter from the crowd as the cannibals pushed the cauldron with the explorers inside. The songs from the choir made some customers sway on their seats, especially the younger ones. The gymnasts followed close behind, Lara enjoyed watching their routines once again, they did make a good spectacle.

She particularly loved seeing the makeup Annie applied on them. The first one wore a large trail of golden glitter, another large, fluorescent rave-style drawings, none covered their nipples or pussy as they performed. It took a while for each of the gymnasts to finish their routines but no one in the room got bored, and definitely not Lara.

Next on stage came her favourite parts. First Dan with Gina and Jessica, he turned their bodies to exhibit them to the crowd of hungry customers. He pointed at and explained every single cut of meat they could eat from their bodies and from Irene’s corpse waiting on the buffet.

As a chef, he described their toned meat and how they trained to keep their shape, with some indications on how to be ready for the plate. All while the gymnasts handed recruitment fliers for their club to any future meatgirl, mixed with pre-volunteer forms, for the ones who wanted to make it official. It got a few laughs in the room as they saw the athletes committing to their bit even then.

After Dan’s presentation, the gymnasts disappeared in silence to leave the room to the choir, who interpreted their original song. The whole room, girls and meatgirls, moved to the beat, with the meats humming the lyrics. Once in while Lara waved to her tired friend Julie in the oven. She responded with a weak smile from behind the glass door. The spectators cheered loudly as the gymnasts and dancers joined the choir for the last chorus.

The last round of applause indicated the end of the entertainment and the beginning of the meal. Some of the guests ordered from the menu, but most rushed to the buffet, to help themselves to large slices of Irene and Jiang, while Nadia served bowls of stew infused with her flavour and huge chunks of May’s meat.

Lara still needed to fulfill her duties as the manager’s assistant, so she guided the guests with press-passes on a tour along with Melody. It took them a while to cover every area. Once they returned to the dining room, the young assistant smiled at the sight of girlmeat on every table. She spotted a calve confit she could swear was Rose’s, and a rump which looked just like Nissa’s getting shared on the same table. She was surprised to see Jiang and Irene already nothing but bare bones on the carving area.
