"I cant believe there is a whole convention for this toy." Reina said as she bought her ticket. "Maybe looking a bit around, will change your mind." the ticketseller answered. She got red, as she didnt mean to say that out loud. Still all she could see, where stands, with different sized and coloured cubes.
She picked up a classic 3 by 3 and tried to solve it. Only to give up after five minutes. She looked at her watch, the ticket costed to much as if she could just leave. So, she walked around, hoping to find something intersting. She stopped at a performance stage, where people showed of tricks with the cube, or solved them while doing backflips.
That did got her attention, still nothing seemed intersting to her. Till she stopped at stand for beginners. She looked over the notes placed next to the cubes. With the help of the people watching the stand, did she solve a handful cubes and got a little 2 by 2 with a picture of her on.
She slowly warmed up to it. So, she went on her way. Till she noticed a stand near the wall. "Contest" was written over it. "Are you intersted in the contest?" the man sitting there and reading a news paper asked. "Uhmm, what is the contest?" she sheepishly asked.
He lowered his news paper. "You have to solve one of these cubes and if you win, you get to take the lovely girl this cube belongs to home." "Home?" she repeated. "She will go on a date with you. It can be whatever you want. But you only get 10 minutes or you get 20, if you will pay the price, when you lose."
She stepped back. "What price?" He looked her up and down. "It would be boring if i spoil that, dont worry, i am not taking your money, you are to adorable for that." With that did she pick the 20 minutes option. Reina grabbed the centre cube and started to try and solve it. It felt weird. The cube was a bit heavier than the others she had touched so far and it felt strangly warm.
before she knew it, did the time run out. "Whats the price i have to pay?" He looked at her and handed her a note. "Can carry that note, to the custom cube station on the otherside." she nodded and grabbed the note.
After fighting her way through did she reach the stand and handed the note to an older woman. "Okay, if you would follow me." she said and Reina complied. The Woman instructed her to take everything off, but Reina pleaded to keep her underwear. The Woman agreed and let Reina step onto a plattform.
She wondered, what the machine is for, but before Reina could ask, did everything before her turn white. The light faded and she couldnt move anymore. Then there was pressure, her body was being pushed together. It felt like she was being folded. Not long and her senses didnt make any sense.
Once the pressure died down, did she feel the hands of the woman going over her body, sliding along her edges. She didnt... No, she felt it, there where edges on her body. The grip around her made it certain. Her entire body was pressed into the form of a cube. The woman handed her off. Someone, drew lines on her.
Reina recognised the pattern, but she couldnt say anything. Something cut into the lines, dividing her cube shape into two parts. She felt herself being hollowed out, before her outer parts cut fully cut into smaller cubes. Her body got reassembled. Atleast the cube bits. The center of the cube, held her body together.
She felt as the carvings got thrown into the trash. Not long after, did she felt someone painting on her. Turing her into a proper cube, once the paint was dry, did she felt a womans hand, rotating her. She had to confess, that it felt nice. being rotated all over the place, the firm hands touching her all over.
The man from the contest stand counted down. Reina felt the final click, just before the count finished and her form grew. "I hope you will have fun, miss." he said. Reina looked at him and the young blond, that was holding her hand. "I hope you enjoyed your loss." he said and handed her a card with his number. "In case you want to do it." was written under it.
since the girl freed her, did she let herself be dragged around for the rest of the day.
