It was a quiet party, as parties went. Nothing formal, just a bunch of girls from Danielle's school, hanging out at Susie Van Zandt's house. The Van Z's had money, and a big house. A number of her fellow high school juniors were there, as were some of Susie's little sister's friends - all high school sophomores - including her little sister, Kate, which meant no getting too rowdy for Dani, since the little sneak would rat her out to her parents in a cold minute.
So, instead, they were having as much fun as they could. They were all underage, and Mister Van Z kept a good lock on the liquor cabinet, so no drinking, either. Still and all, it wasn't so bad. Where Dani went wrong was in underestimating her sister. Kate was going on about how she had been studying hypnosis, until Danielle got fed up with her bragging.
"Yeah, right, shrimp", you couldn't hypnotize anyone if your life depended on it."
"Oh, no?" replied Kate. "I bet I could hypnotize you, big sis."
"Then do it, little punk!", said Dani.
"Alright", said Kate, " but I can't do it in front of a crowd like this, too noisy. Susie, do you have a room we can use?"
Susie showed Danielle and Kate to a guest bedroom.
When they were alone, Danielle said to Kate, "OK, shrimp, what;s the gag?"
"No, gag, said Kate, "Just sit still and listen."
Kate began speaking to Danielle in a slow, calm, steady voice. Danielle had to admit that there was something about the way she spoke...something...something...something...
Danielle shook her head. "Wow, Kate", she said. "I have to give you credit. I almost thought you were going to hypnotize me for a minute there."
"I did hypnotize you, Dani, look at your watch."
Danielle looked at her watch - it was an hour later!
"OK, so you manged to make me zone out, or something. But you didn't really hypnotize me."
"You don't think so? Let's go back to the others and see."
Danielle followed Kate back out to the group..
"I was starting to wonder if you two were ever coming out!" said Susie.
"I just wanted to make sure I got it right", said Kate. "But I've got her primed to obey a number of commands."
"Yeah, sure you have, brat". said Danielle.
Kate smirked, and said, "Danielle, be Buster!" (Buster was their family dog, big and goofy, but lovable."
Danielle dropped down into a dog's sitting position, and began panting the way Buster always did. Kate patted her on the head.
Oh.My.God, thought Danielle. She actually did it. What else has she programmed me to do?
"Yeah,OK" said Susie. "You two cooked this up together as a gag - that's what you were both doing in there so long!"
"You really think Dani would do this for me voluntarily?" asked Kate. "Well, I wonder if you think she'd do this!"
Kate looked around the room and saw Cindy Brock, a classmate of Danielle's. From what Kate knew of her, she was squeamish and easily embarrassed. Kate turned to Dani and said:
"OK, 'Buster', go say 'hi' to Cindy!"
Oh, damn you, you little bitch!, thought Dani. Buster was infamous for how he 'greeted' any woman or girl who came into their house. Sure enough, she gallumphed across the room and buried her nose in Cindy's crotch, shuffling loudly. Cindy broke into hysterics, and the other girls laughed loudly!
After a minute of this. Cindy was near to fainting, so Kate took mercy, and said, "Danielle, stop. Stand up. Go rigid. Seething with anger and humiliation, but helpless to disobey, Danielle stood up, and then went rigid, unable to do anything but breathe.
"Answer me", said Kate. "Did I hypnotize you or not?"
Danielle answered through clenched teeth,"Yes, you did, you little..."
"Ah-ah, language", said Kate. "I'm not so sure you're convinced. I think another demonstration is in order. Danielle", she said...
