Double the Fun: Part 2
Hi everyone, it's James here again. Here's the conclusion of the story that I started on the 24 March.
It was almost 2:00 and Beth would be arriving soon.
We all slumped back onto the couch and had a discussion about our latest game. Everyone, myself included, enjoyed the role-playing that went on during that game, and the twins were enjoying their tie up experience.
The clock ticked passed 2:30 and Beth still hadn't arrived, which wasn't a total surprise to us, seeing as she was always late. Jodie quickly went upstairs to change into a pair of shorts and Mark did the same.
Five minutes later, we all got impatient, the twins especially, so we decided not to wait for Beth and start a new game without her.
We got a little stuck on how we should play the game, but after a little bit of a debate, we decided on splitting up into two teams, one team of two and one team of three. We didn't give the game a name, but the objective was to, surprise surprise, capture and tie up the members of the other team!
We picked the teams by writing our names on scrap pieces of paper and putting them all into a small plastic container. The teams were decided. Team one consisted of Lisa, Mark and Jodie. Team two consisted of Caitlin and myself. We decided that when Beth came, she would be placed in our team to even it up.
Because of the imbalance between our team and theirs, the other team could not stay together as a group of three; they had to split up into a group of two and a single. This rule would remain in place until Beth arrived.
The next problem we faced was deciding how to start the game. After another little discussion, we decided that Caitlin and I would make the shed in the backyard our "headquarters", and the others would use the basement. We had to stay in our HQ for ten minutes before venturing out.
Each team was given a plastic bag, which contained about ten pieces of rope of different lengths, six bandanas, three pairs of long socks, a small roll of black electrical tape and three puny water guns.
If you were hit with the water fun on the chest, you were paralysed, meaning you had to surrender. If you got hit anywhere else, it didn't count.
I asked if there was anything else we needed to discuss, nobody said anything, so let the games begin!
Caitlin quickly grabbed our share; Lisa did the same for her team (boy, were they enthusiastic!) and the teams parted as we trotted off to the shed, and the other team to the basement.
I looked at my watch every five seconds, hoping that the ten minutes would be up. Finally, I got impatient and we headed off two minutes early. We snuck into the house, trying to avoid making creaking noises on the carpet. We decided to hide in the little area under the stairs, the same place where Beth and I were tricked and tied up in an awkward position.
We waited for another five minutes before we finally heard footsteps coming from the basement. I looked over at Caitlin who looked really excited and was shaking from head to toe.
We heard one set of footsteps walk past the door, and up the stairs. I imagined that the other two were still hiding in the basement. I looked at Caitlin and asked her what she wanted to do. Did she want to go after the one upstairs, or wait a little longer. I probably needn't have wasted my breath, she enthusiastically said, "The one upstairs! The one upstairs!"
Just as I was about to open the door, I heard more footsteps coming out of the basement, this time two sets. But this time, the footsteps didn't walk past our door. I nudged the door open a little bit and saw the backs of Lisa and Mark, heading towards our HQ. I told Caitlin this, but she still wanted to go for Jodie, who was lurking upstairs.
So we waited until Mark and Lisa were out of view before we headed upstairs. With water guns in hand, we crept up the stairs without too many problems and we were met with silence from upstairs. I told Caitlin to stay still, hoping that I would hear a faint sound coming from somewhere. But it wasn't forthcoming.
I was about to look into the first room when Jodie appeared outside her bedroom door. She drew her water pistol from her pocket, but by then it was too late. Her shirt was covered in little blobs of water as she dropped her gun and was forced to surrender. She let out the loudest scream I'd ever heard in my life before I clamped by hand over her mouth, and put the gun to her head.
"Do that again, and I'll blow your brains out!" I growled. She ceased her yell and looked at me with those little puppy eyes that said don't hurt me, please.
I was certain that anyone within a mile could've heard that scream and quickly asked Caitlin to look outside the window to see if Mark and Lisa were aroused. She rushed over to the window and told me that she saw them inside our shed, but they were rummaging around the place and didn't seem to have heard the scream.
I was surprised, but relieved nonetheless. Then it struck me. I'd forgotten the rope in the shed! I told Caitlin this, and she happily produced a few lengths of rope that had been tied around her waist.
"Aren't you lucky to have me?" she teased.
I helped Jodie into a kneeling position, where I crossed her wrists behind her and tied them nice and tight!
"What should we do with her?" Caitlin asked.
I thought for a moment. "Are they still outside?" I asked her.
Caitlin looked out the window. "Yeah, they're still in the shed."
"Well, if they use our HQ, we'll use theirs." I helped Jodie stand up, and I grabbed her left arm and Caitlin grabbed her right, and we escorted her down the stairs and into their basement.
I sat her down in the corner and Caitlin handed me the rest of her rope. I asked her to watch the door while I finished tying Jodie. She objected and said that she wanted to do the tying, just for a little retribution for Jodie tying her up in the previous game. I handed over the rope and Caitlin happily accepted them, and got on with tying Jodie.
I watched the hallway and looked left and right but I didn't see anyone coming. Caitlin called out to me, and told me that she'd run out of rope. I checked the hallway one last time, before closing the door.
"There's no more rope to tie her legs, and I haven't got anything to gag her with." she complained.
I thought for a moment.
I pulled out my water gun and put it to Jodie's head, "OK, tell me where the stuff is or I'll blow your head off."
Jodie cowered further into the corner and looked at me again with those scared little puppy eyes and said with a shiver in her voice, "Th...they're in the ..p..p..plastic bag."
I looked around the room and found the plastic bag lying in the opposite corner. Caitlin picked it up and brought it over. All the rope and bandanas were gone, and all that was left were the socks and black tape.
Caitlin pulled out the black tape and ripped off a huge piece and was about to tie Jodie's ankles when she pulled them away.
"Are you crazy? That's gonna kill when I take it off!" Jodie said.
"Well, how about we put some socks on you first?" I asked.
Jodie nodded. I thought that this could be payback for the time when Jodie made me wear her white knee socks while tied up, which embarrassed the hell out of me. But then it struck me that she wore them everyday to school anyway, so she'd be used to it anyway.
I put the socks on her and Caitlin tied her ankles and her knees with the tape. Lastly, as Caitlin kept pointing out, we needed a gag. I grabbed a sock and just as I was about to gag her, we heard a knock on the door.
I dropped the sock and quickly clamped my hand over Jodie's mouth. I grabbed my water pistol and motioned for Caitlin to do the same.
After she was armed, I yelled out, "Who is it?"
There was a slight pause. "It's Mark. We know you've got Jodie, and we're willing to make a trade."
A trade? I thought. Was one of them going to take her place?
"Trade with what?" I asked him.
There was another pause. "Can we come in?"
I thought again. "OK, but throw your guns down the stairs before coming down."
The door opened, and Mark appeared. He threw down two water pistols and Caitlin promptly collected them.
"Now, what are you going to trade with?" I asked him.
He yelled out, "Bring her in Lisa."
Lisa appeared at the doorway with her left arm clutching the right arm of a tied up and gagged Beth! She helped her downstairs and brought her over to Mark.
"Now, do we have a trade?" Mark asked.
Beth started crying out behind her gag, so I took that as a sign that she wanted me to do the trade. I agreed to the trade, but before I handed Jodie over, I picked up the sock and gagged her with it, much to her annoyance.
We swapped prisoners, and we backward stepped up the stairs. Once we reached the top, Caitlin threw down the two water pistols put the two water pistols at the top of the stairs, and closed the door.
We escorted Beth back into the shed, and promptly untied her. We asked her what had happened and she told us.
Beth arrived just after the ten minutes were up and saw Mark and Lisa in the backyard. She greeted them, and they invited her to come in through the backyard. They lured her into the shed where she was ambushed. Beth said that Lisa and Mark jumped her and told her about the game we were playing, and how she was the "enemy" and she'd been captured. She argued that she should've been given prior warning, but they didn't listen. They heard Jodie's loud scream from upstairs and knew what'd happened. They came up with the idea of a trade after they saw us taking the tied up Jodie into the basement.
Now that all of that was cleared up, the game continued.
This is when the game started to get boring. There was no movement from the other team for a long time.
Beth and I sat down with our legs crossed on the concrete floor bored to death. Beth played with her hair, and I around with a tennis ball that was lying in the garage. Caitlin kept peering out the window every ten seconds hoping for something to happen, but nothing eventuated.
Finally, after about 30 minutes or so, Lisa can trudging out of the house holding a stick with a piece of white cloth hanging off the top. We got our water pistols ready, in case this was a trick.
She slowly opened the door and peeked inside. All of us yelled "Freeze", this startled her and she fell back onto the grass.
"Hey, whoa! Hold it. See this," Lisa said, waving the little flag in her hand. "It means peace."
Actually, that flag meant surrender, but we let it go.
"What do you want?" Caitlin asked, still aiming her water pistol straight at her sister's forehead.
"The other guys said that the game was getting pretty boring and want to change it."
"How?" I asked.
"Same as now, but teams of two and everyone must split up."
I looked at Beth and Caitlin. "What do you guys think?"
Both of them shrugged their shoulders and hesitated a little. I made the first move.
"I think it's a good idea. At least it'll be more exciting that sitting around here all day." I said.
Beth and Caitlin then agreed, but we didn't know how to split up the teams.
"Oh that's easy. Each person from your team partners someone from the other the team. Everyone pick a number, 1, 2 or 3." Lisa said.
Two was my answer, three was Beth's and Caitlin got stuck with one.
Lisa thought for a moment. "OK, Caitlin's with Mark, James is with me, and Beth is with Jodie."
"That's it?" I said. "So we just split up now?"
Lisa went on to explain some of the rules of the game. The rules that were used in the previous game were still in effect; each person had to carry their own rope, and that would be used to tie you up if captured, you could not "capture" anyone while they are tying someone up, you can release your partner if they had been captured, but you could be captured yourself while untying him/her.
"Well, I'm going to tell the others that you've said yes, and in five minutes, we all split up. OK?"
We all nodded, and Lisa ran back into the house to tell them the news.
Straight away, we went about splitting up all the ropes and stuff that were still in the bag. There was a little bit of argument over how much each person was getting, but we settled it in the end.
We agreed that I would be the first one to go out, and then Caitlin, and Beth would leave last. I ran out towards to the house, not knowing what to expect. I had my water pistol ready in hand. I didn't hear any movement inside the house, but I did still hear some talking going on in the basement as I walked passed.
I must've gone out a little early, so I decided to hide first and wait for someone to come to me.
I tip toed upstairs and into Jodie's room. I hid behind the door and waited. About a minute later, I heard the first signs of movement inside the house, but the noise faded away.
A few moments later, I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. The footsteps stopped soon after, and I resisted the temptation to take a quick peek outside.
The footsteps continued slowly towards Jodie's room, and I readied myself for the attack!
The footsteps stopped outside the door. They slowly crept into the room, and it was time to make my move!
I jumped out from behind the door and fired. I'd fired several shots before I noticed that it was one of the twins that was soaked in water.
I knocked the water pistol from her hand before she could react, and quickly grabbed it from the floor. I pointed them both at her.
I still couldn't recognise which one was which, so I embarrassingly had to ask her, "Which one are you?"
"I'm Lisa!" she said, hesitantly. This hesitation gave it away, and I promptly said that she was lying.
Caitlin sighed as she was found out, and I pulled her into Jodie's room and shut the door.
I asked her to lie down on the floor, and she complied. She had her ropes tied around her waist, and it took me a while to undo it. She giggled and teased me for taking so long. Finally, I managed to remove the rope, and I got started.
I brought her wrists behind her and used a small length of rope to tie them. It only went around three times, but it would suffice. I used the second length of rope to tie her ankles, which I crossed beforehand. There was one piece of rope left, and I had to choose between tying her knees and her arms.
Caitlin noticed this and looked curiously at me. "What are you doing?"
"Where do you want me to tie you with this rope? The knees or the arms?" I asked her, holding up the length of rope.
"Why are you asking me? You're the one doing the tying!" she laughed.
I decided on tying her knees rather than her arms. The last rope was a long one and it went around her knees about 7-8 times before I knotted it.
I picked up the bandana and the sock, and held them both up.
"Which one, Caitlin?" I asked her.
She giggled. "Aww, aren't you nice? I'll have the bandana."
I dropped the sock, and held the bandana to her mouth. "Any last words?" I laughed.
"Umm, no", she giggled.
I pressed the bandana into her mouth and knotted it behind her head. I grabbed both her arms and dragged her to the other side of the bed, so that she couldn't be seen by anyone walking by the room.
I listened carefully for any footsteps outside the door before I opened it. I peeked outside the door and found no one in the hallway.
I crept out and headed to Mark's room. I took one short peek inside, but that's all it took as I felt a huge splash hit me on the side of my head. I half cursed myself, and dropped my gun. I turned around and saw Beth smirking as she picked up my water pistol. She closed the door and pushed me onto the bed.
"OK, take them off" she said, pointing at me. For a moment, I thought she was asking me to take my pants off, but then I realised that my ropes were tied around my chest. I untied them and placed them beside me.
"OK, stand up and put your hands behind your back" she ordered.
I got off the bed and did as she asked. My hands were firmly tied and she led me over to the closet. She swept all the things lying on the floor to one side, and helped me sit inside the closet. I had four pieces of rope on me, so my ankles, knees and arms were tied.
Beth was not as nice as I was to Caitlin, she didn't ask me which gag I wanted! She picked up the sock and tied it over my mouth and behind my head. She also used the bandana to blindfold me.
"Enjoy!" she teased, as all the remaining light disappeared as she closed the closet door.
I didn't bother to try to escape, not that I even wanted to anyway. I sat back and leaned against the wall and relaxed myself.
I sat there for roughly another half and hour before someone opened the closet door and removed my blindfold. My eyes took a while adjusting to the light, and I saw Lisa kneeling beside me.
She told me that the game was over and, not surprisingly, Beth and Jodie had won. She ungagged and untied me, and I pulled myself up. The victors were sitting on the couch in the lounge, talking up their victory. We sat down and joined them talking about the game.
Caitlin and Mark returned a few minutes later and joined the discussion. Everyone in turn told how they ended up where they were. Jodie went first. She was the last one to leave the basement, and she was surprised as she got to the top of the stairs by her brother Mark. She was tied up in the basement where Beth found her about fifteen minutes later and untied her. She didn't do much else as she hid under the basement stairs for the rest of the time, until Beth told her that everyone else had been captured.
Beth told her story next. She was the last to leave the garage, and she hid in Mark's room where she caught me peeking and tied me up. Then she found Jodie in the basement and untied her. She caught Mark in the kitchen, captured him and tied him up in the garage. She found everyone else had been tied up them, and proclaimed victory.
Mark was the second to leave the basement, and waited at the top of the stairs for Jodie. He surprised her and tied her up. He then found Lisa hiding in the study; he won a shootout thanks to poor aiming by Lisa. He tied her up and locked her in the study. He himself was then caught and was tied up in the garage. He was later released by Beth, who asked him to release Caitlin.
Lisa went next. She hid in the study and lost a shootout to Mark and was tied up. She stayed there until Jodie came and untied her, and asked her to untie me.
I told my story next, and Caitlin went last. She was the second to leave the garage, and she hid for a while in the lounge area before heading up the stairs and was subsequently caught and tied up by me. There she remained until Mark came and untied her.
That ended our games with the twins, Lisa and Caitlin. The adults returned home soon after and we went out for dinner.
Jodie and Mark still keep occasional contact with the twins, while I haven't spoken to them since that day.
Next time, we're off to the pictures as Jodie and Mark's uncle shoots a movie for his media and film studies degree.
Until then, I hope you enjoyed reading this story!
