It was turning out to be a fantastic day for Amy Lin. Several weeks ago, the beautiful, twenty-five year old Korean-American nurse had just crushed it in an interview for a position working on the floor of a hospital. She had been offered the job on the spot, and eagerly accepted.
The position Amy had applied for and received was somewhat new, extremely advanced in the world of technology, and very controversial. Amy had been hired as an Invasive RN. The primary puropse of Amy's job was to operate a submarine, which the pilo could shrink down, as far down as one millimeter tall, and enter a person's body. They could then traverse the human body and explore their patient from the inside, searching for the ailment.
The use of shrinking submarines in medicine was still the topic of much debate, but that didn't bother Amy right now. She had just spend the last few weeks in training every day. She knew how to operate the machine, how to shrink it, how to travel inside the human body. She had made it through the entire course while many other nurses did not, perferring to drop out and remain traditional RN's at the hospital. This made Amy incredibly valuable, and her boss trusted her enough to let her practice with the device they called the "Size-Altering Submarine", though they were commonly referred to as the "Shrinking Sub." Amy's main boss was Marge, the Nurse Manager. Marge had told Amy that she could take the shrinking submarine home with her, and spend a few weeks testing it on volunteers. Amy carried the device, which was roughly the size of a handbag, and shaped exactly like a submarine, to her car and began the drive back to her apartment. "This is gonna be exciting," she thought to herself.

"Wait, so you got the job?" Amy's best friend Sarah said, sipping her glass of White Zinfandel. Sarah was also in her mid-twenties, a young, athletic blonde woman who was also a school-teacher. She and Amy had known each other for ages.
"I sure did," Amy said with a proud smile. "Cheers, bitch!" The two young women clinked their wine glasses together. Neither was drunk, or even tipsy for that matter. They were just enjoying a low-key girls night, while Amy's two roommates were both our somewhere.
"Congrats, even though I knew you'd get it!" Sarah responded with a laugh. "So, what do you have to do?"
Amy just shrugged. "Well, the size-altering submarine is property of the hospital, but I'm pretty much the one responsible for it. I've already takein it on tours through a few patients, but I'm still really getting the hang of it," she responded.
"Any crazy stories yet with your patients?" asked Sarah, casually sipping her wine.
"Not really any yet," stated Amy. "Pretty standard stuff so far. We had a paraplegic guy and I was able to travel down his spinal cord. That was really cool! Obviously he couldn't feel a thing." There was a bitof a pause as Sarah was still processing this. "My boss swallowed me yesterday in it!"
"Wait, what?" Sarah said, wide-eyed. "Are you serious?"
"Yeah, laughed Amy. She went on to explain the process to Sarah. On the back of the submarine was a thumbprint scanner which allowed Amy to be the only one who operated it. When Amy scanned her thumb, the submarine would expand in size, large enough for her to climb inside. There were four separate rooms inside the sub: the main cockpit, a room for passengers, a storage room, and a bathroom who's toilet connected to a tank within the submarine. That was particularly useful for trips that lasted several hours. The submarine could shrink smaller than a millimeter in size, though once it was inside a human body, it could no longer change size. Whatever size it entered the human body at, it would remain that way until it exited. This was mainly to prevent from accidental expansion, causing unwilling patients to burst like balloons as a submarine grew out of them like a chest-burster from aliens. The sensors on the shrinking submarine offered a little more flexibility when shrunken outside of the human body, but the shrink ray could only grow as long as there was enough space for it to grow.
Amy also went on to explain how the sub was nearly indestructible from the outside, though if any tiny person ventured out of the sub, they would be vulnerable. Size change was controlled from the cockpit of the submarine, as was maneuverability, including flight. The submarines were still in the prototype phase, and often had a hard time taking off to fly when submerged in liquid. Each submarine could hold up to eight people, one in the cockpit and seven passengers.
"That's incredible," remarked Sarah. "So did you come out...."
"Yep," Amy laughed. "All the way through her intestines, and right out of her ass," she laughed. Sarah nearly gagged when she said this.
"Any other stories?" Sarah asked, getting more and more intrigued at this prospect by the minute.
Amy shrugged again. "Not really, no. I'm allowed to use the sub whenever I decide to though. They think the more practice, the better."
Sarah started to blush a little bit. "What...what about right now?" she asked her best friend.
Amy's eyes widened a bit. She hadn't expected to be using her shrinking sub tonight, but she wasn't exactly against the idea. "Oh yeah? That could be cool! What're you thinking?"
Sarah glanced down, clearly a little bit nervous and uncomfortable talking about this. "I uhhh, I was kinda hoping you could explore my body," she said with a nervous giggle. "You did say you could do more training and practice, right?"
Getting up off the couch, Amy walked into the kitchen and poured out the rest of her glass of wine. Rather, she started a pot of coffee and walked into her bedroom to grab the sub. AFter several minutes of explaining everything to Sarah, Amy shugged two hot cups of coffee to wake her up. She also explained to Sarah that she would be traveling inside of Sarah's nose. The thought of having someone so tiny inside of her, even if it was just her nose, was extremely enticing for Sarah.
Amy placed her thumb on the scanner of the back of the submarine. This was protected by a heat shield, so it could not be damaged by stomach acid. Obviously, the sub accepted Amy's thumbprint, and grew large enough for her to climb into. Enterint the cockpit, Amy strapped herself in and braced the sub for shrinking. "Alright, here we go," she said. "In three...two...one."
Before the blondes very eyes, the large submarine quickly began to diminish further and further, along with her friend inside of it. Sarah leaned forward and scrunched her toes, barely able to process what she was seeing. Down on the hardwood floor, was a tiny submarine only 1/8 of an inch long, with a much smaller nurse inside of it.
"Holy fuck," Sarah whispered, extremely impressed at what she saw. She walked towards where the shrunken submarine was on the floor, her bare feet shaking the floor for her tiny friend. Her hand reached down and plucked up the tiny vehicle.
Even though she had been shrunken multiple times before, Amy was still not used to everything yet. The stomping of her giant friend still sent chills down her spine, and the feeling of being lifted high into the air by the massive hand of her friend still made her nauseous.
The one-centimeter submarine was lifted in front of the absolutely titanic friend of Sarah. "HEY AMY!" the giantess said, her lips parting to reveal the dark cave that was her mouth. "READY FOR YOUR TRIP?"
"Holy shit she's big," Amy whispered to herself, as Sarah began bringing the tiny sub closer to her face. "Holy shit I'm small," she followed up with a laugh.
Sarah began to raise the tiny submarine up towards her right nostril carefully with two fingers. While the submarine could fly, Amy preferred not to do that unless necessary, to save battery life.
"ALRIGHT BITCH, IN YOU GO," Sarah said, teasing her friend. She began ton insert the submarine into her right nostril and inhaled strongly as she did, making sure it didn't fall right back out.
Making sure to shine the sub's incredibly bright headlights, Amy could not believe what she was witnessing. In front of her was something out of a science fiction movie. She might as well have been traveling through some strange alien caverns. Nasal haird sprung out of the walls and cave ceiling around her, like crazy stalagmites. Being only around a millimeter tall herself, Amy was in awe at their size. Most were several times larger than her own body. There were several bloody scabs stuck to the walls of Sarah's nostrils. "Looks like she picks her nose," Amy laughed to herself.
Suddenly the walls of the nasal passage started to close in around Amy, knocking her around. "What the fuck?!" Amy screamed. She whipped out her phone and fired off a text to Sarah. "What are you doing? Be careful!"
Sarah glanced at her phone. "Crap," she mumbled. She had scratched the outside of her nose, not thinking anything of it. She didn't mean to endanger her tiny friend. "My bad! Sorry!"
After taking a few minutes to regroup, Amy had calmed down enough to continue on her journey. She continued to travel up the nasal passage. Amy noticed that there were more piles of snot and mucus. "Gross," she mumbled.
As the ship continued onward, its' headlights struck something ahead of Amy. Amy wasn't even sure what she was looking at. As she continued her slow approach, it soon dawned on Amy. This was a massive wall of mucus and snot. It was so large it was completely blocking her path, and likely most of Sarah's air flow.
"Hey, you're really congested, looks like you've got a blockage," Amy fired off in a text message, to her massive friend. She glanced up at the giant blockade of mucus in front of her. She shuttered at how gross it was. She had seen plenty of disgusting things in her time as a nurse, but mucus was just something she did not want to deal with.
Staring at the picture her tiny friend sent, Sarah responded via text. "Can you do anything about it lol."
Amy shrugged after reading her friends' response. "Let's try this," she muttered to herself. Messing with the controls, Amy managed to find the emergency hose. This was mainly used for spraying water to dislodge objects. She figured this was the perfect time to use it. From the top of the submarine, a hose which was attached released a jet stream of water towards the massive blockage. After several seconds, Amy shut off the water and looked up at her handywork. Her eyes widened. "Shit!" she shouted. The massive wall of mucus was now starting to drip and trickle towards her.
While Amy was backtracking and trying to escape the mudslide of mucus in her friend's nose, she struck multiple nasal hairs on the way out. Sarah's face twisted and she scrunched her nose. "Crap, not now," she whispered to herself as she desperately grabbed a tissue. "AAACHOOOO!"
And just like that, Sarah released a massive mound of mucus into the tissue. She couldn't believe how much snot just came out of her nose. After blinking a few times, she spotted the one-centimeter submarine lodged in the mucus. "AMY I'M SORRY!" she said, unaware of how loud she was.
Extremely disoriented from the impact, Amy was just starting to come to. She looked around, at the wasteland she had landed in. "Oh shit, she sneezed me out!" the tiny nurse yelled. She rapidly unbuckled her belt and ran to the doors. In her panic, Amy was not thinking clearly and not paying attention to her training. In Amy's mind, she needed to get out of the sub and get out of here. Throwing open the door of the sub, Amy stumbled out of the submarine, and landed face down in the puddle of mucus.
Slowly crawling up and wiping the snot of her friend out of her eyes, Amy gagged but could not find the words to speak. The silence was broken by an incredibly loud gasp above her. "AMY IS THAT YOU?" the booming voice of Sarah asked.
Staring down at the tiny submarine, Sarah had managed to watch the much smaller nurse stumble out of it. And now her best friend in the world had fallen and was covered in her mucus.
Losing her cool, Amy was not thinking rationally. Amy wiped the rest of Sarah's mucus off of her face and stood up defiantly. "What the fuck was that?!" she screamed, though she was far too small to be heard by Sarah. Amy continued to rant and scream for a full minute. She failed to realize her friend was too large to hear her. When Amy felt that she had finally cooled down, she stared up and saw something off about her friend's face. Amy's eyes seemed to get a bit glazed over, and then her nose scrunched once more. "Oh no, not again," Amy whimpered.
The gigantic blonde failed to realize the predicament her miniaturized friend was in. The tissue began to move towards her massive friend's face once more. "Nooooooo!" Amy shrieked. A massive gust of wind blew Amy's hair about. This was followed by Sarah bringing her face into the tissue and sneezing again. Sarah expelled another storm of mucus upon the Kleenex, including upon her miniscule friend and the tiny submarine.
Sarah pulled her face back, and it took a few seconds to let what just happened set in. "Oh crap, Amy!" she thought to herself. Staring back down at the tissue, her jaw dropped. The tissue was covered in another thick, yellow layer of mucus. The submarine looked like it was stuck pretty well, and Amy was....somewhere....
Amy was in a nightmare right now. She was covered head to toe in her best friends' snot. She tried to pull herself free, but only her head and arms were free of the wretched puddle. She screamed for help, spitting out the disgusting substance as she did so. This mucus was incredibly sticky and she would no doubt need some serious help. "Sarah helppppppp," she sobbed.
Sarah had left to grab a magnifying glass to better locate her friend. Amy was around the size of a millimeter tall, and Sarah gasped as she studied the tissue. There she was, in all of her helpless glory. Despite how disgusting this whole situation was, Sarah couldn't help but get a little arousal at the power she had over her tiny friend. She would never tell her this, but she let out a soft moan as she looked through the magnifying glass. Sarah couldn't help but picture a hot guy getting stuck in her mucus and having to bend to her will.
"ALRIGHT AMY, LET'S GET YOU OUT," Sarah said. "BUT FIRST, SAY CHEESE!" Amy looked up as best she could, and saw Sarah's phone looming like a star destroyed in the sky. There was a bright flash that nearly blinded the tiny nurse as Sarah snapped a photograph.
On the verge of passing out from shock and exhaustion, Amy heard Sarah digging the tiny submarine out of the swampy mucus. Soon, Amy felt Sarah's titanic finger digging around her too. It would take a good rest, but Amy was able to get back into the shrinking submarine and return to her normal size. Sarah apologized profusely and Amy forgave her without a second thought, they were best friends after all. Amy touted this test in the submarine as the most dangerous so far. Over the weeks however, she tried to put the rest, the fear of an incident of this kind happening again.
