This choice: Stay put and wait until they get back. • Go Back...Chapter #6Jack in a Bottle by: Unknown You didn’t want Gary to make fun of you, so you ruled out heading towards your mom. You also didn’t want to get lost and squashed in the park, so you decided not to chase after the girls. With a sigh, you sat back down on the towels the girls left behind, and decided to simply wait for them to return. It was without a doubt the safest option available to you. Unfortunately, it was also the most boring.
You laid on your back against the towel, staring up at the hot sun. The sun was shining directly down on you, its brilliant rays burning your skin. You were glad that you had lathered up in sunscreen before coming to the park, or you would be a goopy puddle at this point.
Just then, the sun was blocked out by a shadow. The shadow completely filled your vision, until you were suddenly and forcefully pressed against the ground. You were flattened like paper under something warm and…giggling. You recognized that voice. It was Stevie!
Stevie climbed up to his feet, staring down at your flattened form. He had flopped on you, and the results had been exactly as anticipated. He stepped aside as Gary walked into your view.
“What’s up squishy?” He smirked. “Enjoying your day at the waterpark?” He bent down and picked you up, rolling you into a tiny ball. “I couldn’t resist. You’re just so much fun to play with Jack.” He and Stevie laughed.
You fumed intensely, and wished you could punch him in his smug face, but it was hopeless. He had you trapped in the palm of his hand. Literally.
“I’ve got a great idea today squishy.” He closed his fist around you, and then he and Stevie sped off across the park. They headed directly for the sauna. It was empty, so they strode inside and dropped your tiny form on the steaming bench. Within just a few seconds, your body had been melted down into a liquidy and goopy substance. Gary swept you off the bench, and you fell into a bottle that Stevie was holding below you.
Your entire goopy form splashed down into the bottle, and mixed in with some other liquidy substance. You couldn’t tell what the other substance was, only that it was cold and wet. It mixed with your body, and you felt yourself sticking to and absorbing with the liquid. You had no idea what kind of bottle you were in, but you knew it was bad news.
“How’s it going in there squishy?” Stevie laughed. “I hope you like your new prison!”
“You’re going to have tons of fun in there squishy.” Gary joined in. “Wondering what kind of bottle it is? I’ll tell you.” He leaned in close to the bottle, and whispered menacingly. “It’s tanning lotion.”
You gasped in fear, or you would have if you weren’t melted down into a liquidy form. You had no idea you were in a bottle of tanning lotion, and now that you knew, you were terrified.
“I bet you’re scared.” Gary grinned. “Afraid some hot chick will pour you all over her sexy body and you’ll get stuck there for weeks? I hope that happens. That would be hilarious!” Gary and Stevie left the sauna, with you trapped in the bottle of tanning lotion.
Unbeknownst to you was the fact that your tan and liquidy form had fused with the tanning lotion more than you thought. Your body had been entirely turned into a shade of cream, and no part of your normal self was visible. You looked exactly like normal tanning lotion, and no one would be able to tell the difference.
Gary and Stevie stepped out into a large crowd, and then looked for a suitable female to hand you off to. How do they decide to give you to?   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
