Bad Idea? - How I Became the Family's Human Pet ? by: Katie Dale.
My name is Steve. I'm 11-years-old. I have an older sister named
Stephanie, who we call Stephie. Stephie and Steve - my parents thought
it was some kind of joke. Whatever. Oh, Stephie's a year older than me.
Well, I've got a horrible story to tell you. I guess it's kind of a
warning - don't start up with your sister.
When Stephie was younger, my parents were really into making her a
sweet, cute, pretty girl. Dressing her up all pretty with bows in her
hair, cute little bikini bathing suits when she went swimming, ballet
lessons - all that. But when she turned ten she turned into a tomboy.
She didn't want to dress up all cute anymore, and if there was a party
or something, my parents literally had to threaten her to get her to
wear a dress. She always wore jeans and a t-shirt, and avoided swimming
at all costs. If she had to go swimming, she'd wear boxer shorts over a
plain one-piece bathing suit as a kind of protest.
I tried my best at sports, because I wanted to be like all my friends.
But I wasn't so good at it.
Anyway, LAST summer Stephie and I entered some kind of draw at the
mall. All we had to do was pose for some cameras wearing jeans and a T-
shirt. If our picture was chosen for an ad, we'd win free tickets to
the circus. And we won. So we got to go to the circus for free - the
two of us and one adult. Mom came along with us.
The show was great - we all really enjoyed it. The part I liked best
was the lion act. I thought it was amazing how such a relatively small
person could control such a large wild beast. I kind of became obsessed
with lions after that, and started collecting all kinds of pictures of
lions and lion trainers and stuff like that.
School began, the usual stuff. Eventually Halloween began to come
close. All my friends began discussing what they wanted to be for
Halloween. A nerdy kid in the class said he was going to dress up as
Spider-man, and we all laughed at him because his costume was skintight
- we called him a fag. He cried.
I couldn't really think of an idea. Then one of my friends suggested I
go as a lion.
"Too lame," I answered. "A lion's a little kid's costume."
"I don't know about that. My older sister once dressed up as a lion. So
then why don't you go as a lion trainer?"
My eyes lit up. How I so wanted to be a lion trainer. "It would never
work, though," I said. "You can't be a lion trainer without a lion. Who
would be my lion?"
"Why don't you ask your sister?"
I laughed. Stephie would NEVER agree to that.
"Why not? I'm sure you could convince her. Bribe her with something."
That night over dinner I casually asked Stephie what she was planning
to dress as for Halloween.
"I'm not dressing as anything. I'm not going out. Halloween's lame."
"Oh, come on, Stephie, you've got to go."
"What are you planning on wearing?"
"I'd like to be a lion trainer, but I don't have a lion. Maybe you want
to be my lion, if you don't have any other plans?"
"Yeah right! Dream on, bro!"
"Oh, come on, Steph, it will be fun! Nobody else will be my lion -
you're my only chance! If you agree, I'll let you can play with my
gameboy anytime you want!"
"Why should *I* be the lion? Maybe *you* should be the lion and I'll be
your trainer!"
"The trainer can't be a girl!"
"Sure she can! Lots of times lion trainers are girls - right Mom?"
"Stephie's right, Steve. I've been to circus acts with female lion
trainers."
"Well it doesn't matter anyway. I'm going to be the trainer, not you. I
don't want to be the lion."
"Well, neither do I, Steve, so I guess you'll be a lionless trainer!"
A couple days went by. Halloween grew closer, and I became depressed,
because I really wanted to go as a lion trainer and I couldn't see
myself going as anything else.
"Why do you look so down?" Stephie asked me one evening.
"Because I really want to be a lion trainer," I said, pouting.
"You know, I kind of began to like the idea of going as a lion trainer
myself. Maybe you should take me up on my idea, and you can be *my*
lion. After all, you're younger than me! The older one should be the
trainer!"
Later that evening:
"Okay, Steve, I talked to Mom, and I'm ready to make you a deal. I'll
go with you as your lion - if you agree that next year, you'll be a
lion and *I*'ll be your trainer."
"No."
"Okay."
But the next day I talked to Mom. Mom pointed out that Stephie was
going to be older next year, and she probably wouldn't even want to
stick to the agreement anyway. And if she did - how bad could it be?
One evening walking around the neighborhood in a lion's costume. But it
wasn't that. It was the humiliation of being seen by my friends being
'trained' by my big sister.
But the next day, Halloween was still becoming closer and I really
wanted to be the trainer. So I agreed.
"I want you to sign a contract," Stephie said. "And Mom's going to
witness it. You agree to be my lion next year at Halloween - for the
entire Halloween night until sunrise. If you refuse, or back out in the
middle, then you have to pay me 300 dollars within a week of Halloween,
or else I can confiscate ANY of your belongings I want to, up to a 300
dollar value. Now sign," she said, handing me the paper and pen. I
signed. Stephie handed it to Mom and she signed as a witness. Stephie
went to the fax machine and made two copies of the contract - one she
gave to me, and one she gave to Mom for safe keeping. She went and hid
the original somewhere in her room.
The next day I went and asked Mom to take us to a costume store.
Halloween was only two days away. Stephie was out with a friend and
told me just to pick up a simple lion costume for her, nothing weird or
outrageous, and it will be fine. I went with Mom.
For myself, I found a one piece kind of suit with a funny color print
all over, similar to what the lion trainer at the circus wore - only
his was skintight and mine obviously wasn't. I didn't want to be called
a fag by anyone like that nerd in my class. And I didn't want my butt
to be on display for everyone. Mom thought a skintight suit would look
better and be more realistic but I refused. So we went with the baggy
one.
I looked over the rack of furry costumes and found one that looked like
a lion. "I found one," I called out to Mom, who was looking at another
rack.
Mom came over and looked. "That's nice," she said, "but maybe you'd
rather this other one I found." I walked with Mom over to another rack
which was obviously filled with girls' stuff. Mom handed me a package.
All I saw was some kind of fabric with a leopard-print. A leopard
wasn't really a lion, but it was close enough. "What does it look
like?" I asked. Mom turned the package over. There was a label with a
picture. The picture showed a girl wearing black tights and a leopard-
print leotard. The girl was down on her hands and knees, smiling
wildly. And there was a boy standing over her - wearing a costume
similar to the one Mom thought I should get. He was holding a whip and
a big hoop.
"It's only the girl's costume," Mom said. "The boy's costume's sold
separately. But this one comes with leopard-print ballet-slippers,
gloves, a matching scrunchie, and a belt with a tail attached. And, it
comes with a fake whip and a fake leash. It looks a lot more convincing
than the one you saw over there."
"Yeah," I said, "but Stephie will never agree to wear it. You know she
won't even wear a normal bathing suit."
"Well, she did agree to go with you, and she did say you should pick
out a normal costume for her. This looks pretty normal to me - I'm sure
she'll wear it - with a little incentive from me."
I knew Mom was getting her back for refusing to wear a dress last week.
I figured that with Mom's help, it would work out. Then I shuddered.
"But next year...," I began.
"Oh, don't be silly. This is a GIRL's costume. Stephie won't want you
to wear a girl's cosutme!"
We took the costumes to the checkout and went home.
Of course, Stephie threw a fit when she saw the costume, but Mom talked
to her privately and she quieted down about it.
The night before Halloween I was sitting in the den watching TV.
Suddenly the TV went off. I complained and looked around the room to
see who might be holding the remote. Next thing I knew I saw Stephie -
she ran across the room and jumped, landing on the sofa practically on
top of me. She was wearing the leopard costume - including a bit of
make-up that I assumed Mom put on for her. She stayed there for a
moment - knees on the couch pressed against one side of me, elbows to
the other side of my legs, and growled.
Then she did some kind of kick and landed flat on my lap - butt up. She
wiggled her butt in my face a bit, then turned over and rearranged
herself again - this time sitting on the couch beside me but at a 90-
degree angle, with her black-tights-enclosed legs over mine.
"So, trainer," she said, "train me. What do you want me to do for you
tomorrow night?" She put the whip and chain on the couch beside me.
I was really surprised by this behavior. Suddenly she seemed to be
enjoying the part. And she was willingly wearing the skintight costume
one day earlier than she had to. Also, I never really thought of what
we were going to DO - I just figured we'd go around LOOKING like a
trainer and his lion. But she had a point - we should have some kind of
act, shouldn't we?
"I hadn't really thought about that," I said. "Well, what can you do?"
"I dunno," she said. "I haven't really practiced any gymnastics lately.
But lets see if I can still do the splits." She could, as well as a
variety of bends and balances and other stuff girls like to do. I could
also do the splits - I don't know why, but I could. I never did it in
public, though, but sometimes, in the privacy of my own bedroom, I'd do
it just for fun.
We worked out some kind of routine that she would do.
"Now as your lion, you're going to have to keep me on a leash," she
said. "So put the chain on my neck."
She turned her back towards me and kneeled on the floor in front of me.
Then she lifted up her hair exposing her neck. I examined the chain -
on one end there was a handle with an extendable chain, the kind people
often use for their dogs. On the other end there was something that
looked like a dog's collar. It was fastened with a buckle. So I undid
the buckle, put it around Stephie's neck, and refastened it. There was
a spring between the collar and the chain so that she wouldn't be
choked to death if someone pulled on the chain.
"Now what are the signals for my tricks going to be?" Stephie asked,
playfully tugging at the chain.
I started saying some signal-words. "No, silly, lion trainers don't use
words, use this," she said, putting the whip in my hand.
"How?" I said. "Won't it hurt?"
"No, silly, it's a fake whip. It makes a loud noise but doesn't hurt.
See?" she said, grabbing it out of my hand and slapping it violently
across my stomach. I screamed when I heard the loud crack, but then
realized that despite the scary sound, it didn't feel like more than a
light slap on the back of your hand. "Now you try," Steph said to me.
I gave her one across the thighs, and she sprung into a handstand. We
worked out the numbers of hits that would correspond to each trick.
"But you shouldn't be hitting me on my legs," she said. "Trainers never
do that."
"Okay, as you wish," I said, bringing the whip down loudly on her back.
"Do it on my butt - it will look more daring," she said.
"What? You don't really want me touching you butt, do you?" I asked
surprised.
"First of all," she said, "it won't be YOU touching it, it'll be the
whip. And secondly, what do *I* care if you touch my butt? It's not
like you don't have one yourself!" And with that she helped herself to
a quick feel of my butt (over my pants, thankfully not under!).
"Hey, stop that," I protested.
"Okay, now you can feel mine!" she said and grabbed my hand, giving me
a slow tour of her leotard-covered butt, crack and all. This sure
wasn't the Stephanie I knew! "Now we're even," she said. "Now whip my
butt," she commanded, and I did.
The next night was Halloween, and we had a blast. We went around the
neighborhood and did our routine for the neighbors. Steph especially
did a long show for my friends. Mom got a bit of it on video. A few
weeks went by, and Steph went back to being her usual self, and
eventually we pretty much forgot about Halloween - except for the photo
of us that I kept up on my wall with my other lion pictures.
The next summer, we went to the circus again. Steph had some money and
decided to treat me. As school started, Dad was called away. He works
for the army, and was sent to Asia for a few months. That didn't
usually happen, but he was some kind of specialist and they really
needed him out there. So we all said goodbye and I was left in a home
with just Mom and Steph.
As Halloween grew near, I remembered my deal with Stephie. I was now
hoping that Mom was right and that she wouldn't want to do it. I didn't
really like the idea of being Stephie's lion. And, I was now Stephie's
age last year and began thinking that at my age I shouldn't be dressing
up at all. Nothing was mentioned at home until about a week before
Halloween so I figured Stephie forgot.
But a week before Halloween, Stephie approached me. Recently she began
dressing more girlishly again, and she was now wearing a short T-shirt
and pink spandex bike shorts. "So you remember our deal, right?" she
asked.
"What deal?" I asked back.
"You know - about Halloween."
"Oh, yeah, I remember. You still want to do it? I figured you were too
old this year."
"Too old for Halloween? Nonsense," she said.
Later that evening I approached Mom. "Mom, I don't want to be a lion
for Stephie."
"Well, Stevie, you don't have to. But you remember that contract you
signed, and don't think I'm going to nullify a signed agreement. If you
back out - you know what you'll have to give up!"
300 dollars was a lot of money for me, and I figured I'd suffer a bit
of temporary humiliation and not lose the money. After all, it was just
one night.
The day before Halloween I asked Steph, "So should we go to the costume
store to get costumes? I can't wear the costume you wore last year - it
was a girl's costume!"
"Oh, don't worry, Stevie dear, I've got it all worked out. I've already
been to the costume store - and I got you a boy's costume. So don't
worry. I'll show it to you tomorrow when we get home from school - no
reason to spoil the surprise!"
The next day I got home from school before Steph, so I sat down in
front of the TV. I watched for about an hour. Then Steph came in the
door, said a quick hello, and ran up to her room. About ten minutes
later she called out, "Stevie, come upstairs, it's time to start
getting ready for Halloween."
Reluctantly I made my way up the stairs to her room, wondering what was
awaiting me. Steph was ready for me, waiting outside her closed door.
She had changed - she was now wearing a black spandex sports-bra top
with the word 'trainer' printed across her just-beginning-to-form
breasts, and bike shorts with a stars-and-stripes print on them. I was
surprised - this sure wasn't the tomboy Stephie I knew!
"So how do you like my costume?" she asked, spinning around a posing in
various muscle-flexing poses for me.
"Nice," I mumbled, more surprised than anything. I was surprised at how
muscular her biceps looked.
"So, does it make you want to submit to my training?" she asked with a
giggle.
"Not really," I said, although to my surprise I felt something stirring
in my underwear.
"Well, that doesn't really matter now, does it?" she asked a little
teasing.
"I guess not," I muttered.
"Okay, your costume's in this bag."
"I looked inside and pulled out a package. It was clear plastic, and
all I saw was a leopard-print. There was no picture, but it was labeled
with the words 'leopard costume - boy - size 2'.
"They assured me this would fit you - Mom told me your height, weight
and waist size to tell them. Now let's try it on," she said. Then she
took the package out of my hands, and grabbed my elbow, and took me
into the bathroom.
"I'm not changing in front of you," I said.
Steph laughed. "I know, don't worry. I just want to make sure you know
how to put it on - then I'll wait outside the door. BTW - you're lucky
you don't have hair on your legs yet - we'd have had to shave them!"
I couldn't imagine why. Steph began opening the package. "Now you
normally wear boxer shorts for underwear, right? Well, with this
costume you won't be able to because they'll show. But don't worry -
the costume's made to be worn without underwear anyway.
"What are you talking about? I asked nervously. She ignored my
question.
"These are your socks," she said, handing me some spandexy leopard-
print socks. "You can put those on in front of me," she said again,
putting the toilet cover down so I could sit down. I hesitated, so she
said, "or would you rather pay me 300 dollars?" Hearing that I
nervously sat down on the toilet, lifted up my pant legs, pulled off my
socks, and slipped the shiny, smooth stockings up my legs. They felt
like girl's tights, and came up to just below my knees. A tight elastic
held them in place. Steph ran her hands up and down the stockings and
said, "cool, so nice and smooth."
"Okay, the costume's not really complicated. There's only one more
piece - here it is. You have to take off all your clothes - and I mean
everything, including your underwear. Not your socks, though. Then you
just step into the leg holes and pull it up your body. Not too
complicated. Oh, I'll have to help you fasten the part that goes behind
your neck. Call when you're ready."
She placed the fabric in my hand. It felt, and LOOKED like a girl's
bathing suit! "I'm not wearing this!"
"Oh yes you are - that's your costume. You agreed, remember?"
"I agreed to a normal lion costume. This is for a girl!"
"No it ISN'T - I specifically got the boy's one. Look at the part that
goes between the legs - see? It was made especially to fit a boy. Now
put it on and be quick about it - I'm running out of patience - we have
to start working on our routine." With that she left the bathroom and
closed the door.
'I can't wear this!' I thought to myself. I looked it over - it indeed
did look like a girl's bathing suit. Fairly high-cut in the legs, and
open back. Oh, and I didn't notice at first, but there was a small
circle cut out of the front of it. On top of it all, it looked way to
small, like - even if I WANTED to wear it, it would never fit!
"Are you ready yet?" Steph called from behind the door.
"No - and I'm not going to do it - forget it!"
"Okay, I've had it. I'm going to your room and starting to take some of
your belongings. And I'm going to start with that new boxing game you
were given for your gameboy from Dad - my friend Jack would really like
it - I think I'll give it to him!"
"No! Don't you dare touch it!" I hadn't even opened the game yet, I was
so excited about just having it.
"Then get moving. Put the damn costume on already! If you're not ready
in sixty seconds I'm taking the game and hiding it."
I couldn't believe this was happening! There was no way I could give
that game up! And this was just one night, right? But how could I let
her do this to me? Maybe not being humiliated would be worth the 300
dollars? Not likely, for an 11-year-old. 300 bucks is a lot of money. I
decided to try it on and see what it was like, and then make my
decision. So I went over and locked the door. Steph began counting down
from sixty on the other side. I quickly threw off all my clothes -
including my underwear, watch and gold chain (save the leopard socks).
I stood before the mirror, naked. Trembling, I held the flimsy material
and stepped into the holes. I drew it up my legs. When it came close to
my private-parts I noticed a pouch-like thing on the suit where I
assumed my dick and balls were supposed to go. I pushed my dick down
over my balls and eased them into the pouch - it was tight, but not too
uncomfortable. I pulled the suit the rest of the way up and put my arms
in the appropriate holes, drawing the shoulder straps over my
shoulders. That pulled it real tight. I couldn't believe I was wearing
something so tight. There were flaps on the back at the top that looked
like they were meant to go behind my back and be fastened there, but
each one ended in a very small ring, and there appeared to be no way to
fasten them, so I just left them dangling behind my shoulders. The
whole suit felt quite tight, and my ribs and nipples protruded quite
noticeably through the leopard-print fabric.
There was no lining on the top like Stephie's bathing suits normally
had. The circle that was cut out of the front was now about three
inches in diameter and framed my navel, exactly in its center. The
pouch-thing holding my private parts was particularly embarrassing -
the edges of the leg openings squeezed my groin area perfectly smooth,
and the pouch squeezed and pulled my parts, pulling them slightly
upwards, making me hard and clearly defining where my dick was and
where the two balls were. There was no way I could be seen wearing
this!
I heard Steph from the other side of the door: "Five, four,"
"Wait," I called out nervously, frantically trying to figure out what
I'd do. But I couldn't think of anything. I quickly began to take down
one of the shoulder straps, figuring I'd just give up on the money,
when Steph said, "One". I heard the doornob click - she used the
emergency key! I quickly pulled the shoulder strap back up and
instinctively thinking that without that, she'd be seeing me uncovered
or something like that!
"Wow, you look cute," she exclaimed. "Better than I expected!"
"I'm not doing it," I said, holding my hands in front of my balls
self-conciously.
"Don't be silly, and move your hands out of the way!"
I didn't move my hands. "Okay," she said, "we'll take care of that
problem later. For now, let's put on the final touch, the part I needed
to help you with." With that she grabbed me by the shoulders and
surprisingly forcefully spun me around so my back was towards her. I
suppose the slippery stockings I was wearing helped her in spinning me.
"Go away, leave me alone," I said. Then, realizing she was now staring
at my butt, I moved one hand to block that. She laughed.
"You probably noticed these two rings that are supposed to be fastened
behind your neck. I'll show you how it's done." She took some black
thing out of the bag - it was a small strip of fabric, wider in the
middle and thin at the ends, with a 1-inch ring hanging from the
middle, and two small rings in the center of each end. She held some
metal thing in her hands - I didn't get a chance to see what it was.
"This goes around your neck," she explained, pulling what now appeared
to be a choker-necklace around my neck with the opening in the back,
"and we hook everything together like this." I felt the tight suit tug
up even more, then heard a click, and felt something cold hit the top
of my back. Instinctively, the hand that had been covering my dick shot
up to see what it was - and I felt it. The two ends of the choker, as
well as the two ends of the flaps that I THOUGHT would go behind my
BACK, not my NECK, were now fastened together, behind my neck, with a
small combination padlock! And I knew there was no chance in hell that
Steph would reveal the combination to me - hell, even if she did, I
doubted I'd be able to work the dials into place behind my neck -
meaning that I was at Steph's mercy of ever getting this thing off.
As if reading my mind Steph said, "I guess you realize that you'll need
my help going to the bathroom now. So you'd better be good. Oh, and
thanks for moving your hand for me - nice dick!" My hand shot back
down. "Yeah, like I said, we'll take care of that later. Now let's see
your butt." With that she forcefully yanked my hand up and away from my
butt. I was so surprised by her strength that I didn't even try to
fight her. "Nice," she said, letting go of my hand. I put my hand back
in place.
Then I realized that when she locked the suit into place behind my
neck, it had pulled the suit right into my butt-crack, revealing that
as well! I tried pulling it out with my fingers, but it instantly
snapped back in! Then I felt it - I realized that there was a seam
there, right in my butt crack, that must have been sewn there
especially to make it rest inside the crack. It probably had even been
up there before she closed the top - I hadn't really had time to look
at my back. Now that it was pulled up to my neck, it had become
exceptionally tight there - as well as everywhere else.
"Wow," she said. "You're just like I dreamed!"
"Steph, you can't do this to me, PLEASE!" I begged.
"Don't be silly Steve, it's going to be fun!"
"Where's Mom? She'd never allow this!"
"Mom will be home in a few minutes, but I'm sure she's going to LOVE
how you look. After all, she convinced me to get this costume!"
I didn't want to believe what she last said, but I had my suspicions.
"Well Dad would never allow this!"
"Dad's not here now, is he? Listen, Stevie, just calm down, okay? Once
you get used to this, you'll like it - trust me. Now lets just get a
few more things into place."
I was feeling so helpless and depressed that I didn't even protest. She
took some kind of belt out of the bag and fastened it around my waist,
locking it in the back with another padlock. It too had a leopard print
to it, and it rested just below the back-opening of the suit, low
enough so that it wouldn't conceal anything that shouldn't have been
concealed. Two small chains dangled from each side. Wasting no time,
she firmly eased my wrists up towards the chains and locked them - one
by one - with another two padlocks. My hands were now uselessly
fastened at the sides of my waist.
I tried moving them, and realized I couldn't even rotate the belt to
move one of my hands in front - the belt had some kind of hard form
sewn into it that prevented that. "Now we don't have the problem of
things hiding the important parts, right Stevie?" With that she gave me
a friendly peck on my cheek. I had tears in my eyes. She noticed, and
wiped them with her fingers. "I'm sure the real lions aren't too happy
about being trained, either, so I guess your reaction's to our benefit.
Let's take you to my Mom's room and fix a few more details."
Without waiting for a response, Steph grabbed me around my legs and
hoisted me up over her shoulder! She held my legs tightly as she
carried me out of the bathroom and into our parents' bedroom. To say I
was shocked at her strength would be a huge understatement! I never got
the impression that Stephie was anything close to strong, and while I
wasn't exactly on the heavy side, still, for her to be able to carry me
with so much ease - well, it shocked the living daylights out of me! I
was so shocked that I temporarily forgot all my misery and just thought
in awe about her newly discovered strength. My wrists were still
restrained at my waist, and my face was now pressed against her back,
just above the top of her spandex-covered butt. Once we had reached our
parents' room she put me down on the floor again, then took my arm and
led me over to my Mom's vanity, having me sit down on the chair.
"Mom said I should put a little makeup on you - nothing major - we
don't want you to look girlish or anything. Just that, since it's going
to be dark when we go out, it would be best if your features were a bit
more noticeable. Hold still please."
Stephie began to apply a bit of makeup to my face - lipstick, blush,
and a bit of eyeliner. Feeling totally out of control, I didn't make a
fuss and just sat still, letting her do what she wanted. In the
meantime, I was looking at her body - looking at the tight sports-bra
she was wearing, her small beginning-to-form breasts just slightly
poking out from under it, her thin but surprisingly muscular biceps,
her smooth, flat stomach, her cute little belly-button... I began to
realize that she looked quite sexy! I had never thought of my sister
like that before! Just as Steph finished doing my makeup, we heard our
Mom walk in the front door. When I heard her close the door, I stopped
checking Stephanie out and came back to my senses. The thought of my
mother seeing me like THIS - made me want to puke!
"PLEASE, Stephanie, I don't want Mom to see me like this," I begged.
"What? Don't be silly - of course she's going to see you! Don't be shy!
I was actually planning on bringing you downstairs for her to see right
now!"
With that, I was up over her shoulder again, being carried down the
stairs to the kitchen where Mom was.
"Mom - wanna see the lion I'm training?"
"Wow!" said Mom. "He looks SO cute! Way to go Steph!"
"Mom, you can't let her do this to me!"
"Oh, Stevie cutie, I seem to remember that you signed a contract last
year, agreeing to this. So there's nothing really that I can do - I'm
not going to get involved. Seems like the two of you are working it out
between you just fine. So, Steph, have you trained him to do any tricks
yet?"
"No, I was just about to start working on that. For starters, Stevie,
show us what you can do. The splits, for example."
"I can't do the splits!"
"Nonsense, of course you can - I've seen you doing it in 'private'
before!"
Steph took hold of my shoulders and stuck a foot in between my feet,
sliding them apart while pushing down on my shoulders. The slippery
stockings I was wearing in combination with the smooth linoleum of the
kitchen floor provided no friction whatsoever and a second later I
found myself on the floor, doing the splits.
Mom said, "Wow, I never knew you could do that, Steve!"
Steph took my shoulders again and pulled me backwards so I was lying
flat on my back. She straightened my legs in front of me, then lifted
one of them up and brought it all the way up so it was touching my
shoulder, extended perfectly straight.
"Wow, you're really flexible, Steve!" she said as she brought my leg
back down and did it again to the other one. I was putting up no
resistance, just lying there like a rag-doll letting her do whatever
she wanted to me. I couldn't have protested much anyway, with my wrists
restrained at my sides the way they were. She turned me over onto my
stomach and lifted my legs up so that the soles of my feet were
touching the back of my head. "Yes, we definitely have what to work
with!" she declared. I was devastated. I couldn't believe my Mom had
seen me like that. In fact, I couldn't believe my Mom was agreeing to
all this! Where was Dad?
"Okay, let's get you up to my room and start training you." Once again
I was over her shoulder, being carried upstairs to her room.
On the way up, something weird happened. I don't really know why. She
was holding me tightly by my thighs. Against the front of my legs I
could feel her sports-bra and her bare stomach. My head was resting
against her bare back, hanging inches above the beginning of her
spandex shorts. I looked down and noticed her butt. I watched it turn
and sway, entranced by the way it looked in those spandex shorts. I
began to realize that my sister was kind of hot! I mean, I had always
thought of her as that annoying older sister, always tried to stay out
of her way and make her stay away from me, away from my stuff. Even
when I started looking at the girls in my class, I never looked at her
that way. I never really considered her a girl!
I suppose that was partly because she never really acted or dressed
like a girl. But now I suddenly began to realize that she was probably
better looking than the best looking girls in my class! Then I began to
feel sensations in my groin - the way my dick was stuck inside the
tight suit, accompanied by the way it was pressed against Steph's
shoulder and being rubbed by it through the slippery fabric of the
leopard suit - all contributed to getting me pretty horny! I thought
more about my predicament - I was completely helpless, totally
controlled by my older, stronger, sexy sister... Steph could do
anything to me and I had no way of protecting myself. Yet, she wasn't
really being mean to me - she wasn't hurting me or anything, she was
just playing with me! I began to enjoy it! (Even though this paragraph
took you a couple of minutes to read, it only took a few seconds to go
through my head and change my attitude. Go figure!)
My only worry was who else was going to see me like this. Even though I
was still embarrassed to be seen like this by Steph, the helplessness
of the situation was enjoyable. I didn't care, anymore, that she was
seeing me this way and began to like it. I wasn't too crazy about my
Mom seeing me this way, either, but somehow I felt I could live with
that, too. But if anyone from school saw me, well, that would be a
different story! I could never continue going to school like that! I'd
lose all my friends, everyone would pick on me. That made me scared. If
only I could know who she intended to show me to.
I decided I'd ask her outright. "Stephanie," I said, as she was putting
me down on the floor of her bedroom, "who else is going to see me like
this?"
"None of your business," she said. "You're the lion, you don't have any
rights."
"Come on, Steph, please, just tell me."
"Okay, Stevie, look. I've been meaning to tell you the rules anyway.
Here's how it's going to be, okay? I know you're not enjoying your
predicament so much, but - tough. I'm enjoying it and there's no way
I'm going to let you free before tomorrow, like our deal says. I've
always fantasized about doing stuff like this to you, and now that I've
got the chance - I'm not giving it up. But, I'll let you know, that I
don't have any intention of hurting you or spoiling your life or
anything. I just want to have fun. Okay? So, like, if you're worried
that your classmates or other people at school are going to see you and
that you'll never be able to go back there, stop worrying. Nobody from
school's going to see you.
Mom and I already worked that all out. We're going to drive to another
city and trick-or-treat there so that nobody will recognize you. Okay?
Well, I did promise Lisa and Megan that they could see you like this,
but they're sworn to secrecy and you can trust them that they won't
tell anybody or anything. They're gonna come over here when we get back
from the trick-or-treating.
Okay? So stop worrying - this is just one lousy night for you, and then
you can go back to living your normal boring life and nobody will know
this ever happened.
"Now for the rest of the rules and things. You know, lions never like
being kept in captivity, so it's a good thing you're protesting and
everything - makes it a lot more realistic. But, you did agree to this
yourself, and I even have your signature on a contract. So, from now
on, whenever you complain or protest, no matter how real you make it
look, I'm going to assume that you really DO want to do this and you're
just PRETENDING you don't to make your lion act realistic. I already
told Mom that I was only going to do this to you if you agreed, and
that first thing I was going to tell you was to pretend like you don't
want to, and she should just ignore your protests. That's why she
didn't try to stop me when you complained. So just realize that you're
stuck like this and you're never getting
out until it's over.
"Next - about your rights. Well, you have none, since you're my
captive. But still, I'm going to tell you a few things. Number one -
I'm not going to make you take your clothes off. What you're wearing
now is what you're going to be wearing until this game's all over. so
don't worry about me stripping you naked or anything like that. If you
need to use the bathroom, say so, and I'll leave you inside the
bathroom and unlock your costume, then wait outside until you're done
and clothed again. Also, I'm not going to be touching your private
parts, and not going to make you touch mine or anyone else.
This isn't a sick incest thing, this is just a game. Not that you
could stop me if I wanted to feel up your cute little penis. But I'm
not going to do it because I respect your privacy. The rest of your
body, though, is fair game, if I want to touch it. Of course, your
chest including your nipples are fair game since boys' nipples aren't
private parts. And, actually, I'm going to make your butt fair game too
since girls have butts the same as boys so they shouldn't really be
considered private.
Also, last year you got to touch mine. So I'm gonna touch yours. I'm
not going to make you show it to me naked - it's gonna remain clothed
like it is now. And I'm not going to be sticking things in your butt.
But I get to touch it on the outside, through the clothes if I want to.
So I guess that leaves only your dick and balls that I'm not going to
touch. Now let's demonstrate. Turn so your back's towards me, and stand
up straight."
I obeyed. My hands were still fastened uselessly at my sides. She began
to give me a full body massage - boy did it feel good! She began with
the top of my head, working her way down the sides and back. Then she
did my face, gently massaging my forehead, my eyes, nose, cheeks, lips,
chin. Then she did my neck and shoulders for a while. It felt so
relaxing! Then she put a finger on the top of my head and brought it
down the back of my head, down the back of my neck, down my back, all
the way down to my butt!
She continued going THROUGH my butt - not pushing in, but following the
way the costume was covering it - all the way until her finger was on
that piece of skin that separates your butt-hole from your balls.
Actually she kind of touched the bottom of my balls for a second, but
she apologized saying it was an accident. Then she turned her finger to
the side and worked her way down the inside of my right leg until she
got to my foot. Then she brought her finger over the top of my foot and
up the outside of my leg until she got to my waist.
Then she crossed over my stomach, tickling me briefly in the navel, and
then kept going all the way around to the other side of my waist. She
moved down a bit to the top of the left leg-hole of my costume, and
commanded me to part my legs some more. I obeyed. Then, with her
finger, she followed the elastic of the leg-hole down towards the
front, barely escaping brushing against my balls, and then down the
inside of my left leg the same way she had done it to my right leg. Her
finger massage was weird, I mean, it wasn't unpleasant, I guess it was
even moderately pleasant. But it was nothing compared to the beginning
of the massage when she did my neck and shoulders - that was absolute
pure enjoyment!
"Are you enjoying this?" she asked after she had brought her finger
back up through my butt, up my back and neck and back to the top of my
head, then began massaging my shoulders again the way I liked.
"Yes," I whispered.
"Good." She stopped abruptly, and I was quite disappointed. "That
brings us to our next topic.
"About the training. Training animals works by the simple system of
rewards and punishments. If you obey your commands, you get rewarded.
If you disobey, you get punished. Simple enough, right? So, as far as
the rewards go - if you follow my instructions, you can look forward to
a pleasurable experience. First of all, you'll get simple things like
food and drink when you're hungry or thirsty, and to go to the bathroom
when you need to.
If you disobey I'll be less inclined to give you those things as you
want them. But more importantly, if you obey, you can look forward to
more enjoyable things like more massages and other nice stuff. Plus,
I'll be happy with you so even after our game's over I'll be inclined
to do favors for you and stuff like that.
"Now as far as the punishments go. Look, I'm not sadistic or anything,
I don't enjoy inflicting pain on others. Light bondage, yes, but s&m,
no. So unless you're REALLY REALLY bad, I'm not going to hurt you. But,
if you ever ARE really bad, I have this." She showed me a small black
box with two round silver colored probes sticking out one side. "This
contraption came with your training kit. It's battery-powered, and when
the two probes are placed against your skin and this button is pushed,
it'll give you a very painful electric shock. I'm not going to
demonstrate, and I hope I don't ever have to use it. But you should
know that I do have it and if you ever get really out of hand, I'll
have to use it. It's programmed especially to give the maximum painful
shock without leaving any marks or scars or other permanent damage. It
works anywhere on the body, even through clothes, without damaging the
clothes. But, like I said, I hope not to have to use it ever.
"For stage-punishments, meaning punishments that don't really hurt but
are for the show, I still have that fake whip that we had last year."
She took out the whip and whipped me a few times across the butt, back,
stomach and knees. It made scary, loud whacking sounds but didn't hurt
one bit. "And I may spank you a bit with my hand." She gave me a few
slaps on my butt with her hand. They didn't hurt either. "If I REALLY
need to punish you, I'll probably just tie you up in an uncomfortable
position or lock you inside a very small container or something like
that. But I hope we don't have to do that. Okay? So listen well and
we'll have fun. Any questions?"
She had been pretty clear, and it sounded pretty fair. I had no
questions.
"Okay, good. Now, if I can trust you not to pull anything, I'm going to
unlock your wrists now and let you move your arms a bit. Can I trust
you?"
"Ya," I said.
"Okay, but just one thing. Under no circumstances are you to try to
shield your butt or dick with your hands, okay? Like every other part
of your body, they're mine to see as I please, and I want them nicely
on display at all times. So you can hang your hands at your sides, or
put them on your hips, or clasp them behind your back if you want. But
keep them away from your dick and butt. Got that?"
She unlocked my wrists. I moved my arms around and rolled my shoulders.
Then she lifted up my hands and placed them on her shoulders, and began
massaging my wrists with her fingers. My fingers were resting on the
straps of her sports-bra, and just touching the smooth slippery
material made me excited.
Once she was done with my wrists she took my hands off her shoulders
and put them down by my sides. Then we started working on my 'routine'.
She gave me various commands to get into various poses - I surprised
myself with my flexibility. Each command came with a loud but painless
whipping. She even taught me how to do a handstand - something I had
never done before. I was surprised I was able to learn to do that so
quickly, but I did! And I was able to open my legs into a splits
position while standing on my hands!
"Okay, very nice," she said when we were done practicing the twists and
turns. She gave me a friendly pat on the butt.
"Okay, next we need to practice something else. Something real circus
lions are quite used to - restraints. Real lions are dangerous, and you
can't just let them walk around freely. You got a little bit of a feel
for that with the wrist locks I put on you in the beginning, but now we
need to practice some more things. After all, you've got to be used to
it all by tonight. We can't have you all freaking out and
claustrophobic. Now, before we start, you'd better use the toilet. Put
this on," she said, handing me the end of a 5-or-so-foot chain. At the
end of the chain was a small shackle, like one end of a pair of
handcuffs, but only big enough to maybe fit a finger. I was wondering
where she wanted me to put it when she answered my question. "Attach it
to the ring on your collar. You can push it open now without a key.
Once it's on your collar, though, I'll need to unlock you with a key.
Now come with me."
Steph led me down the hall and into the bathroom. Once there, she
locked the other end of the chain to a pipe at the back of the toilet.
"Be careful not to dip your leash in the toilet," she warned. "Now turn
around." Steph turned the dials of the small lock that was keeping my
costume closed and attached to my collar. She unhooked my costume, then
relocked the lock so it was just holding the collar closed. Instantly
the suit felt a lot looser. She also removed the belt that was locked
at my waist so I'd be able to take the suit down all the way. "I'll
leave you here for a little while so you can do what you need to do.
When your done, put the suit back on and wait for me. When I come back
I'll lock it up for you again."
She closed the bathroom door but didn't lock it. I felt funny about
using the toilet with the door unlocked, but my leash wasn't long
enough for me to reach the door to do anything about it. So I brought
the suit down to my ankles - it felt good to free my dick and balls
from their tight enclosure - and took a long leak into the toilet bowl.
I wanted to leave the suit off for a bit and let my balls breathe, but
I was worried she or someone else might come in unannounced. So I
flushed and pulled the suit back up over my shoulders. Steph had taken
the locks with her so I couldn't lock it behind my neck. I washed my
hands in the sink, closed the lid of the toilet bowl and sat down to
wait.
After about five minutes I heard a knock on the door. Then Steph asked,
"Are you done?"
"Yeah," I said.
"Okay, I'll be with you in a minute."
A few minutes later the door opened, but it wasn't Steph there - it was
my Mom! I suddenly felt sick with embarrassment again. "Mom, what are
you doing here?"
"Oh, Steph's getting something ready in her room so she asked me to
come help you out. I brought the little padlocks. Oh, and don't get any
ideas," she laughed. "Steph didn't even tell me the combination of the
lock around your neck. She just gave me another lock, which she already
opened and then turned the dials again so it can be locked without you
being able to see the combination. I'm going to leave the lock that's
holding your collar where it is, and add a second lock to your collar,
attaching your costume to it. If both locks together are too heavy for
your neck then Steph'll take one of them off later. Now stand up." I
stood and put my hands over my dick. Mom laughed. "Turn around so I can
do up your costume for you."
I stood with my back to her, and put my hands over my butt. "Did you
put your private parts in their special compartment properly?" she
asked, glancing over my shoulder.
"Yes Mom," I said reluctantly.
"Good. But it looks like you didn't pull this up enough yet." She
grasped the top of the fabric that covered my butt, where the back-
opening began, and pulled it a few inches up so that it rode way up my
butt."
"Mom, you don't need to do that - when you do up the neck part it
happens by itself."
"Oh, I just thought it might be more comfortable for you if I did it
gently first."
Now Mom pulled the ends of the costume up, making the suit even
tighter, and then looped the lock through and made the 'click'. The
suit didn't get any loser when she let go.
"Now for this part," she said, holding the strange belt. She quickly
looped it around me and locked it into place as well. I didn't bother
trying to protest, I was too busy dying of shame. I was beginning to
enjoy being controlled by my sexy sister, but by my fat old mother was
something else! Not in the least bit enjoyable.
I was surprised when Mom told me to put my wrists at the sides of the
belt so she could lock them into place.
"Mom, you don't have to do that. Steph's letting me go without the
wrist locks now."
"I don't think you're in any position to be telling me what to and not
to do, young man!" Mom said sternly. With that she grabbed my hands and
pulled them roughly into position, locking them to the belt the way
Steph did the first time. Once my hands were immobile, Mom said.
"Actually, Steph said I didn't need to bother with the wrists, but I
couldn't resist. Stevie, you have no idea how much pleasure it gives me
to see you, my own little boy, like this! I was so happy that you
agreed to Steph's wishes! You two look so adorable together! And you've
got such a cute butt!" She began feeling my butt.
"Mom, you're not supposed to touch me there!"
"Yeah, right! Stephie told me you agreed that your butt wasn't private.
If she gets to touch it, so does everybody else!" With that she felt me
up some more, slowly drawing her finger down and up my butt-hole. I
shuddered.
"Okay, enough fooling around. Let's get out of this bathroom," she
said. She took a key out of her pocket and unlocked the chain from the
toilet, then led me out into the hallway. I couldn't protest, since she
was dragging me by the neck and my hands were immobilized at my sides.
Unless I wanted to choke, I had to follow her wherever she led me.
Turns out we stopped in the hallway, and Mom relocked me to the top of
the banister.
"One second," she said, leaving me there and going into her bedroom.
Moments later she came back with the digital camera and started taking
pictures. "Smile," she said. I didn't. "Smile or I'll tell Stephanie
you misbehaved and she'll punish you." I forced a smile. "Good. Now
turn sideways. Now turn some more. Good. Now bend over - all the way.
Good. Now turn back to me. Now kneel down. Good." She continued telling
me to take different poses and snapping pictures. This whole thing was
so out of character for her! At least I thought it was! Finally Steph
came and redeemed me from Mom, and brought me back to her bedroom.
"Sorry about Mom," Steph said. "But she begged. Anyway, it's good
experience for you." Steph unlocked the extra lock from my collar, and
then released my wrists. "It's not for long, so don't get too excited,"
she commented.
"Okay, let's get started. I have a number of devices for keeping my
lion safely restrained so he can't hurt anyone. We'll try them out one
by one and see which I like best. First, though, there's something
else. Tell me, what is a lion tamer's worst fear, when taming the
lion?"
"Uh, that he'll get hurt?"
"How might SHE get hurt?"
"The lion could attack her."
"How might the lion attack her?"
"What do you mean?"
"With what do lions attack?"
"Their claws?" I asked back.
"True - for that we have a number of paw restraints. But what's even
more dangerous than their claws?"
"Their teeth?" I asked, wondering where this was going.
"Right, their teeth. So what can the lion tamer do to the lion to make
sure it doesn't bite her?"
Nervously I responded, "Put a muzzle on the lion?"
"Very good. A muzzle. So do you feel up to trying one on now? You don't
have to answer that because it doesn't matter anyway - you're going to
try one on anyway. Now, I have a few kinds of muzzles for you. They're
actually maybe better called 'gags', but they do the same thing. I have
one that is a harness that fits over the whole head with a ring part
that locks over your tongue inside your mouth. But I think we'll start
with a less drastic one - a simple ball gag. Here - check it out."
She handed me the ball gag - it was a medium sized rubber ball attached
at both ends to a chain that was covered over part of the way with some
kind of cloth. At one end there was a clasp like the kind on a girl's
necklace - it could be attached to any link on the other chain. I also
assumed that it could be further locked with a padlock if need be.
Steph started speaking again. "Now listen up - you're going to do this
part yourself, with me watching. Here's your assignment. See the board
standing there by the wall? Turn it around."
I hadn't noticed it before, but now I did. There was a wooden board,
painted white, standing vertically, on wheels, by the wall. The board
was a little taller than me. I wheeled it around. The other side had
some smaller, padded boards sticking out at various places, and a bunch
of shackles attached at various places.
"Okay, here's what I want you to do. First of all, you're going to put
the gag on, making sure it's nice and tight and isn't going to slip
off. Then, you're going to lock yourself to that board. First, you'll
carefully sit on that seat there in the middle, and lock that seatbelt
around your hips. Make it nice and tight so you won't fall off the
board. It can only be loosened or opened with a key. Once that's done,
bring your legs up sideways into the splits position, and rest them on
those boards on the sides. Then snap those shackles down over your
thighs to where they attach on the boards, and if you can reach them,
the ones just below your knees as well.
You won't be able to reach the ones at your ankles yourself, but the
other ones should hold you tight enough anyway. I'll take care of the
last ones for you myself. Next you'll lock your arms into position.
Your arms go out to the sides as well - there are little boards
sticking out that they can rest on. There are two sets of shackles
positioned for your arms - one goes just above your elbows, and the
other goes around your wrists. The hand shackles are made especially to
allow one-handed fastening. All you have to do is push your arm against
the spring on the back of the inside of the shackle, and the locking
part will automatically swing around and lock itself into place.
Once you've done all that, you'll be totally, helplessly restrained.
Still, there are a few more final touches that I'll need to help you
with myself. But I think it's so cool that you'll be able to do the
main damage all by yourself. Okay, now begin."
I couldn't believe I was going to do this to myself! But I knew I
didn't have a choice. It frightened me - I hadn't yet been so confined,
so restrained like I was about to be. Total restraint! Not able to move
a muscle! Not even able to speak! Yet, it also excited me. Thinking
about how Steph was forcing me to restrain MYSELF, (almost) willingly
putting myself in her total, absolute control - the thought made me
kind of horny.
"Stop daydreaming and start working! I don't have all day!"
Shaking, I placed the ball gag in my mouth, then brought the chains
around the back. I fumbled a bit with the clasp and then managed to get
it, attaching it firmly. The ball filled my mouth completely. My mouth
was now stuck in an open position, and I couldn't move it a millimeter.
I couldn't even breathe through my mouth - only through my nose, now.
"Next," Steph commanded.
I perched my butt on the little seat and clasped the buckle of the
'seatbelt', tightening the strap so that it held me firmly. I tried to
loosen it a bit and realized that she was telling the truth - it was
made in such a way that it could only be loosened with a key. Moments
later I was totally restrained, the way Steph had instructed me. It was
the weirdest feeling in the world, being so helpless. The ball-gag even
prevented me from whining or complaining! I was completely, totally
powerless, completely at my sister's mercy!
Now Steph got up from her seat on the bed and walked over to me,
checking all the restraints to make sure they were tight enough. Then
she locked another two shackles over my ankles - these were made of
leather so they didn't rub against my ankles and hurt them. Then she
had me open my hands and place the fingers flat against the board, and
then she locked my thumbs, middle and pinky fingers to the board with
little finger-cuffs! Lastly, she pulled some kind of strap around my
forehead and locked my head firmly to the board. I think the only
muscles I could move were my eyelids and my ankles a little bit! It was
unreal! Not pleasant, but not overly unpleasant either. It just was.
"How do you feel now, Stevie?" Of course I couldn't react. She began
massaging my shoulders. It felt so good! Then she moved down and
massaged my nipples, ever so gently, through the suit material! I felt
funny, a little good! I never experienced pleasure from someone
touching my nipples before! I didn't want her to stop. Actually, I
wanted her to go back to my shoulders, but I had no way of telling her
that. After a few minutes she left the room and closed the door. I was
stuck there, totally helpless.
I tried listening for footsteps, hoping she was coming back to release
me. I think most of the time I was imagining that I heard something. It
felt like hours passed before she returned, but there was a clock on
her wall and I knew that in reality it had only been seven minutes.
Still, it felt like an eternity. When she finally opened the door and
came back in, Mom was behind her.
"Wow," Mom said. "Stevie, did you really do this yourself?" I couldn't
answer. She snapped some more pictures and then started tickling me all
over. That was pure torture - I couldn't move a muscle to escape her!
Steph came to my rescue. "Mom, don't do that! You're torturing him - he
has no way of protesting or moving away."
Mom stopped tickling, but continued to rub me all over my body (except
for my penis and balls, thankfully she stayed away from them)!
When Mom finally left the room, Steph finally released me. I stretched
for a bit.
Then she said, "You were really good, Steve. Thanks. Would you like me
to massage your back and shoulders for you?"
"Yeah, that'd be really nice," I answered.
"Okay. Lie face down on my bed. Oh, wait. Let's do it this way. First
chain your ankles and wrists to my bedposts using these." She handed me
four sets of handcuffs.
"I won't be able to do this all myself," I said.
"Sure you will. First attach one end of each set to your ankles and
wrists, and leave the other ends open. Then stand at the foot of my bed
with your legs apart, bend over and fasten those ends to the bedposts.
Then lie yourself down on your stomach - you should be able to close
the other ends with only one hand each. Try."
Reluctantly I did as I was told and soon found myself restrained,
helplessly, on my stomach, spread-eagle style.
Then Steph said, "Let's put this back on, just for effect." I hadn't
seen what she was holding, but soon felt the rubber ball pressing
against my lips. "Open up," she said. I thought about asking her to
skip the gag this time - it made my mouth dry and my jaw sore - but the
moment I opened my mouth to say something she popped the ball in and
fastened it tightly, leaving me with no choice in the matter. She began
massaging my back. It was so enjoyable! Actually, she massaged my whole
back side - back, butt, legs, head - everything. It was so relaxing,
and I think that close to the end I fell asleep. Because one moment I
was getting a massage, and the next moment I found myself alone in her
room, still restrained in the same position with the gag still in
place, but Stephanie nowhere to be seen. All I could do was wait. I
dozed off again, and woke up when she gave me a swat on the butt.
"Okay, enjoyment's over! No more time for sleeping on the job - get
up!"
I tried to move but was still restrained. "Oh yeah," she said, undoing
the cuffs but leaving the gag in place. When she turned around I
reached up to touch the chains of the gag, and realized that she had
locked it with a padlock.
Then she locked the leash to the loop at the front of my belt and began
leading me out her bedroom door. She said, "Now we're going to the
garage."
That made me nervous - our garage wasn't attached to our house - you
had to walk through the back yard to get there. And our backyard was
fenced in with a chain-link fence which the neighbors - or anybody
driving through the lane - could see right through. This didn't seem to
concern Steph, though, as she pulled me by the leash out the french
doors and through the yard. Turns out our old neighbor, Mr. Thomson
happened to be sitting right there in his yard - he looked at us funny
but didn't say anything. I guessed his eyesight was probably poor
anyway.
Once in the garage, Stephie locked the door. The cars had been moved
out of the garage, leaving it empty. Well, empty of what it USUALLY
had. In the middle of the garage sat a little red wagon. And, perched
on top of the wagon was a cage. And it wasn't hard for me to guess who
the cage was intended for. The cage was a strange shape - it wasn't
very tall - looked like I could put my head and chest vertical if I sat
on my knees, but there would be no way for me to stand up in it. But it
was very long and wide - it looked longer than my height, and wide
enough for me to do the splits inside.
"Okay, Stevie, this is going to be your cage for the trick-or-treating.
It's a really fancy one - I think you'll like it. First of all, it's
got padding on the floor so you'll be comfortable. You'll notice that
the bars are spaced far enough to allow people to see through them
clearly. And the two sides are made of special reinforced glass,
without bars. The main door is here on this side - that's where you
enter. The lock snaps shut on its own, but you need three different
keys to unlock it. I'd better not lose the keys because this thing is
REALLY REALLY strong. It would be hard for even the most professional
locksmiths or metal-cutters to get you out without the keys! There are
special small doors here, here, here and here to allow us to put stuff
in or take stuff out. But the fanciest part are these chains and
restraints.
See, they attach to your ankles and wrists, your waist, your thighs,
and your biceps. Normally, the chains are kept lose allowing you free
movement. But when you press these buttons here on the side, in the
middle of the glass - safely far enough so that you won't be able to
touch them from inside - the gears start turning, pulling the chains so
that you're forced into various different positions and held that way
until someone pushes a different button. I think there are four or five
different positions it can hold you in."
Somehow I knew that I was going to be locking myself in the cage all by
myself. The day before I would never have dreamed in my worst nightmare
- that I'd do such a thing to myself. But now I was sure that I would -
without a fuss. I was really enjoying being Steph's lion!
"Okay, now I want to try this other gag on you - the head harness." She
unlocked the ball gag and held up the head harness. It looked quite
scary.
"That thing looks scary - do I have to wear it?" I asked.
"Try it on - I'll decide after if we're really going to use it or not.
Okay, stick out your tongue. Good, I got the ring over your tongue. Now
I just pull it over like this, buckle up these buckles, snap these
snaps, and put this padlock over here to hold the ends. Let's get a
good look at you now. Okay, it effectively holds your mouth open and
your tongue in. Try to speak - good, you can hardly make a sound. And
it has a ring on your forhead, one at the top of your head, one at the
back, and one on each side that I can attach chains to. Is it
comfortable?" she asked.
I made a so-so gesture with my head. It wasn't too bad, but the ball-
gag was a lot more comfortable.
"You know, I think we'll save this one for another time. It blocks too
much of your face and looks too clunky - even though it's probably more
realistic for a lion. But we'll stick with the ball-gag, okay?" She
unlocked the head-harness. I was grateful.
We went over our routine another time, and then Mom came into the
garage and sa
