Denise Lee was a huge Twice fan. Even amongst her kpop obsessed friends, her love for Twice stood out as an absolute superfan of the group. So when their next world tour was announced and coming to their city, Denise practically keeled over in excitement. VIP tickets had been expensive, but definitely worth it to see her girls but she wanted an even more VIP experience and went as overboard as she could to support the group.
Maybe a little too overboard, which was why the tiny Korean girl now found herself backstage hiding amongst the large crates on wheels that hauled in all the production equipment hoping to catch a glimpse of her idols. She’d told her friends she was meeting up with another friend and had snuck her way past a distracted security guard and made her way into the behind the scenes areas of the concert. It was a hive of activity, with stagehands scrambling around for last minute preparations. Dressed in an outfit heavily inspired by one of the set outfits seen earlier in the tour, Denise didn’t exactly blend in with the workers in a white cropped long sleeve top with a cute bow at her midsection, lavender coloured skirt, white fingerless gloves, and knee high white leather boots.
Admittedly, she didn’t really know what her plan was. Springing out to say hi to the group would probably get her arrested, and she was going to see them up close on the stage in 15 minutes anyways. One tiny slipup and she would be caught essentially trespassing, so maybe it wasn’t worth it. Huge risk for a potentially huge reward, but there was no sign of the kpop group emerging from their dressing room so she left the cover of the boxes and crept over to the end of the corridor and peeked around the corner. Nothing. Dam, they spend a lot of time in the dressing room.
She was still thinking about how she was going to get out of the backstage area when a gloved hand clamped down over her mouth and yanked her backwards away from the corner. “Mmmph!?” She gasped in surprise, wondering if security had finally caught her.
A dozen thoughts flashed through her mind as she was pulled backwards away from the noise and down a shadowy corridor. What if I get arrested? Will they kick me out? Ban me? The last couple thoughts horrified her and she wondered if she had truly made a huge mistake getting in over her head and doing something illegal to just see the girls. She didn’t even get a glimpse of them and now she might not see them at all if security kicked her out of the stadium!
With a groan of resignation, she allowed herself without resistance to be dragged into a small storage room where the door was closed to cut off all sound from outside the room and she was finally spun around to see a group of three huge men staring down at her. Dressed in security uniforms, Denise felt even smaller than her normal tiny stature and tried to think up an excuse on the spot that could get her out of trouble even though the gloved hand still covered her mouth. “Secure her.” One of the security guards said.
Coils of rope appeared in their hands and they advanced on the wide eyed girl. Huge hands clamped down onto her wrists, dragging them behind her and crossing them. They were soon pinned together by a coil of rope, her gloved hands flexing and trying to pull against her bonds but soon her wrists were securely bound behind her. The second guard knelt down and grabbed her kicking legs, wrapping a coil around her booted ankles and knotting it off before adding another one under her knees around the tops of her boots. Now she was sure these men weren’t security guards. She would expect to be handcuffed, but being tied with rope hand and foot was something very unusual, especially as they began to wrap rope around her upper body, her tiny breasts compressed as her arms were pinned against her back. “Grab the gag and get it on her, we have to move fast.” The man handgagging her hissed at one of the others.
Denise renewed her struggles, doing whatever she could to try and break out of his grip but one hand over her mouth and one around her torso kept her in place as one of the men brought out a rubber ball on a strap. Her eyes widened as it was brought towards her, not recognizing the device but knowing it was intended for her mouth. Despite her frantic shaking of her head, a simple hair pull was all that was needed for her mouth to be wrenched open and the ballgag stuffed into her mouth. The ball was huge for her tiny mouth, and it took a lot of force and pushing until the ball finally snapped into place behind her teeth. The straps that were buckled at the back of her neck almost seemed redundant, the size of the ball made it seem like it would be impossible for her to push it out herself.
Occupied with trying to accommodate the massive gag now strapped into her mouth, Denise didn’t notice the padded blindfold descending towards her eyes until the world went dark. “Let’s get her in the box, she isn’t going anywhere.”
She felt a sudden sense of vertigo as she was lifted up and carried over to the corner of the storage room where a box on wheels exactly like the ones she had been hiding behind in the hallway sat. One of the men lifted up the lid and Denise was placed inside of the box. “Wait till the boss finds out we bagged Chaeyong.”
Denise’s head shot up. They thought she was Chaeyong??. For a moment she felt flattered that they thought she was the beautiful idol, but then panic took over. They’d made a huge mistake. Just because she was a similar height to the tiny idol didn’t mean she truly was a member of Twice! She tried to turn over and tell the men they’d made a mistake but they simply closed the lid and snapped the locks shut. “I love snatching Asians sometimes.” One of the men chuckled. “They’re so tiny. Easy to grab and they’re like overflowing batteries with how much they struggle sometimes.”
“Yeah yeah, let’s get out of here before anyone realizes what happened. A huge star like this will attract a lot of attention and I don’t want to be here when they notice.”
Opening the storage room door, the men wheeled the box out and down the hall taking a sobbing, helpless Denise out of the building and away from her friends and the group that was such a huge part of her life.
