This choice: Riley pulls out some kind of contraption designed for a tiny person. • Go Back...Chapter #3Pick Your Poison by: Frost   Riley's eyes shot open and a smile broke out on her face as an idea popped into mind. She had to fight the urge to jump up to her feet. Still, she kept composed and slowly closed her hands around her sister before sitting up.
"I got an idea," Riley said into her hand, still beaming.
"Oh no," Penny mumbled under her breath. She recognized that tone. Nothing good came from that tone. Even if it wasn't as painful or dangerous as Audrey's brand of fun, Riley's shenanigans were almost always embarrassing or humiliating in the worst ways.
Placing Penny on the bedside drawer, Riley dug around in her backpack, pulling out a handful of items.
"Okay, I'm gonna let you pick what we're going to test, okay Pen?" Riley placed the objects onto the drawer next to Penny before growing them to their normal sizes. She gestured to a pair of sandals. "Okay starting off, this is—"
"They're flip-flops, Riley," Penny cut off, unimpressed.
Riley shook her head. "Nah, Pen, they're more than that." She brought her hand to the thong of the sandal, gesturing to a harness that resembled a hanging rollercoaster seat. "See, they have a little seat in them for you to ride in."
"Right..." Penny grumbled. "Because it'll be fun to ride around between your toes."
Riley then gestured to a little glass heart shaped locket with a similar seat attached inside of it. "And this is..."

Riley dug inside her pocket before pulling out a tiny toy car. It was a gaudy shade of blue and designed in a way to appear more cool than aerodynamic, which made it obvious that it was a kid's toys. However, like the sandals and the necklace, there was a seat attached to the interior.
"Oh, okay," Penny said, her voice picking up at the different object.
"My mechanic friend helped me rig a Hot Wheels car with a remote control set up from another toy car." Riley put her finger on top of the toy car and pushed it back and forth idly. "Then we added an actual interior to make sure it was rideable. Now I need a test passenger to make sure it all works together. So! What'll it be?"
Penny swallowed a wad of spit that had been welling up in her mouth. Her gut twisted as she realized that she was going to be strapped in one of these death traps. Still, she had to pick one, so she went with...   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
