Joey was the best friend of Eric, they grew up together, and shared everything, they were close as much as two friends could be. For years, Joey spent a few hours in Eric´s house everyday to the point that everyone saw him as part to the family, but everything changed when he announced that he had a crush on Eric's mother, Natalie, they'd all laugh but he was so embarrassed that he never step again in Eric's house, for years he wanted to change that very moment.
Time passed, and even tough Eric mocked him now and then about Natalie, they continued to have a strong friendship.
There is a dark secret that Eric didn't knew tough, and is that while he mocked Joey, in the hart of his best friend a deep envy grew. Despite years, the love Joey felt towards Natalie didn't fade, in fact Joey found himself in a deep crush towards Rachel who had become a copy of her mother, he even fantasized whit Whitney; and the worst of all, sometimes he imagined what would have happened if Eric was born a girl and then he fell in love for him. That idea terrified him... but it also turned him on.
One day he had been walking to the school when he wandered into an antique shop. He felt attracted to it, as if the very own place was calling for him. He entered and walked directly to an old table, over the table was a small gold coin, a silver necklace and a crystal ball.
-They are instruments whit great power -The shopkeeper appeared from behind him, but Joey didn't feel fear, he was attracted to the necklace.
-Looks like it chose you - Continued the old man -You can take it, It's yours now
-I don't have money- Answered Joey
-Well, I'll give you but not for free, in exchange for the necklace you will have to bring women, not now, let's say in a week from now on; I'll give a "special" party for potential customers, so you are now in charge for the show.
-That's impossible, I don't know anyone who would want to - He felt so attracted to the necklace, but still he was realistic.
-Don't worry about it, just use the necklace.
-The necklace?
-Of course, I didn't have told you, these three objects you see have hypnotic powers, the necklace can even change the hypnotized's body, as long as it maintain a human figure -Joey wasn't sure about it, but he wanted it so bad.
-Let's say I agree, what if the necklace didn't work?
-It will, the only think you need to do is to swing it in front of a person, also you will need to repeat the sessions at least three times leaving at least a day between them, so you don't fry their brains, yet you will start to see changes in their behavior almost immediately; take it whit you and make a try, if it didn't work you may keep it, free of charges, but.... if it works and you didn't bring at least three women for the party, I'll show you the meaning of true power.
Joey picked the necklace and went out the store, a little frightened and very excited; he keep walking to the school and in his way he found Eric
-I been waiting for you, Where have you been?
-I-I.... - Joey showed him the necklace, and as soon as it swung in front of Eric's eyes he fell in trance
