I had another free night for my favorite past time.... attending a magic show.

With the weather starting to get cooler, I decided to wear my favorite gray hoodie, and blue jeans.

After performing all the standard tricks, plus a few big stage illusions, the magician announced that he would need a volunteer from the audience. I and several other people raised our hands.

The magician pointed at me and asked me to come up onto the stage. I did as the audience applauded.

"What is your name?" The magician asked me.

"Erin." I replied.

"I'm so glad you could help me out, Erin." The magician said.

While this was going on, several assistants brought out the next illusion. I instantly recognised it as the "Drill of Death." This illusion has always fascinated me. I had seen videos of it, but I had never seen it performed live before, and I always wondered what it would be like.

"Erin, would you please stand here, and hold your arms out to the side?" The magician asked.

I did as he asked, and a couple of assistants fastened chains around my wrists.

"Unfortunately, Erin isn't dressed appropriately for this illusion, so we'll have to fix that." The magician told the audience.

The magician then snapped his fingers, and a cloud of smoke engulfed my body. When it disappeared all of my clothes had vanished except for a pair of black lace panties that I wasn't wearing when I walked in here. This received enthusiastic applause and cheers from the audience.

"HEY!!!" I yelled.

The magician just smiled and ignored me.

Unlike most versions of this illusion, there wasn't any type of covering placed in front of my body, which meant that the audience was going to get a full view of what was about to happen to me.

The magician walked over to the drill, and pulled a lever, turning it on.

As the drill came closer, I began to have second thoughts. I have had magic done to me before, but nothing like this. What if something went horribly wrong. I thought about telling the magician to stop, but I realised that it was too late for that now. It would cause embarrassment for the magician, and people would probably think I was a coward for backing out. I just braced myself for what was about to happen, and hoped that everything would work out alright like all the other times magic was done to me.

I could feel a breeze as the drill moved closer to my back.

I yelped as the drill finally pierced my back. This one wasn't like the other illusions I had been a part of. This one really hurt.

I screamed as the drill went further and further into me. I passed out as the end of the drill came out of front of my body, impaling me.

There was an audible gasp from the audience as my body went limp. I'm sure that they thought I was dead.

The assistants undid the chains holding my wrists in place, and the drill lifted my seemingly lifeless body up into the air, and slowly spun it around.

After a few minutes, the drill brought my body back down. The magician snapped his fingers in front of my face. I blinked several times as I came to. The audience applauded as they realised that I was still alive.

The magician then reversed the drill, and it exited my body, leaving a gaping hole.

The magician grabbed a long metal pole and ran it through the hole, showing that it was real. The audience applauded.

"Well, I think we've put our brave volunteer through enough torture." The magician said.

Just then, the magician snapped his fingers, and my clothes reappeared. The audience applauded.

"Even though this was one of the most painful things I've ever done, " I thought to myself, "And even though I had to stand up in front of everyone topless, I actually enjoyed it, and would gladly do it again."

"LET'S HEAR IT FOR, ERIN!" The magician said to the audience.

I took a bow to a standing ovation.

THE END
