This is a story of a live streamed bondage situation, themed around high tech body modification and limb removal. If it's not your thing, you probably won't want to read it. There is no explicit content in this one, but it is meant for a mature audience anyway.

-------------------------------------------

"Hello every body, today I have some very special gadgets to show you." Lucy said "A friend of mine gave me these, he also helped me program them so that they are synchronized with the stream."

The blond girl showed a set of 5 metallic rings to the camera. As usual, it was her boyfriend who provided these high tech devices, he worked at the MagiTech development and research department and he had once in a while the opportunity to bring some of their latest product at home. A few month ago, Lucy had started to live stream video games out of boredom, soon, she had assembled a small but stable fan-base. More recently, she had found out that a lot of people were eager to watch her test the product Jim, her boyfriend, brought home and she enjoyed a lot the thrill of showing them off.

Today, she is going to push the concept one step further. Jim had asked her if she would be willing to let him organize completely her next MagiTech product testing, implying that she would be quiet helpless during the process. In the past, she had always prepared her show in order to remain in control at all points. When she had tested the flattening device, she had kept one arm functional and even when she had cut her body in pieces, she had managed to setup many safety measures. Having to always be careful about every aspect of her show was a burden for her, and the idea to let someone else take the lead was appealing, and exciting. She eagerly agreed before he even had explain what he was planning, she trusted Jim's judgement about what could and could not be done on her stream. She had a good feeling about Jim's plan, unconsciously she had decided to go with the flow and to try avoid knowing to much about what Jim had in mind. He spend the night programming her streaming interface, synchronizing the devices and writing some instruction for her. She was planning to have her stream the next afternoon, before he would be back from work, thus he had to write down every detail of his plan to be sure they both agreed with his ideas.

-------------------------------------------

Lucy had woke up later than expected, and 30 minutes before the start of her stream, she still hadn't had time to read the note Jim had left her. There were many pages of carefully written explainations, she skipped most of them, thinking to herself that it would be more fun to just discover how things unfold along the way.

From what she read, the only part she needed to understand was how to install the device that would transform her, since she had to set it up manually, after that, everything was pre-programmed. Jim had left five large metal ring on her desk, two of them were meant to be slid around her arms and two around her legs, the last one could split in two and would be locked around her neck. All five rings looked similar, they were thick, but not massive and about 1 inch large. From what she had understood, these devices would shrink or remove her leg and arms, making her completely helpless. The end of Jim's notes explained that once the transformation would be complete a 30 minutes countdown would start.

-------------------------------------------

The stream started barely on time, Lucy gave some detail about what was going to append, without spoiling the surprise. In fact, she couldn't give too much information, since she didn't understood exactly what was going to happen herself. After a little bit of chatting with her viewers, she couldn't wait to anymore and started to set things up. Jim had added a four point seat belt to her gaming chair so that she would be maintained upright during the transformation. A single clip was used to lock it. She fasten the belt, being careful to place the straps flat against her chest and around her hips, then she leaned backward and pulled firmly on the straps to tighten the them around her shoulder and her hips. She felt her back being held securely and her hips sliding back a little. The position wasn't painful, but it didn't feel quiet comfortable either, her movement were restrained a lot, but at least, she would not fall from her chair during the show.

Once she was secured, Lucy grabbed the rings and moved her chair around, to find an angle where the camera would film her correctly. It was important that everybody could see her body at least from her thigh to her face, to witness the full effect the device would have on her body. Because her legs and arms needed to be completely bare, she had decided to wear a nice deep blue tank top that underlined her breast and waist nicely and the shortest short she had, leaving her delicate legs for all to see. She arranged her cloth one last time, making sure her tank top covered her stomach and her shorts were in a comfortable position.

The next step was to place the rings around her legs and arms. Being unable to reach forward, sliding the first ring around her foot proved to be tricky but she managed to do it by placing her foot on her other knee. She then slid the ring along her calf and pulled it on her thigh. She wasn't sure what to expect, but Jim had told her to just pull it as high as possible, and that she would know for sure once it was in place. The ring didn't had any specific feature, the contact with her skin felt cold at first, but the metal warmed up quiet fast. She continued to pull on the ring until it was squeezing her thigh.

At this point, she had no clue if it was in place, it felt like there was no more slack to pull it further and it was less than an inch from the top of her leg. With both hands, she tugged one last time on the ring and felt a sharp snap, as if the ring had connected with some part of her body. She looked at it and saw that it had slide all the way to the top of her leg, almost disappearing beneath her shorts. She couldn't have placed it further up. She tried to push it down and to move it around, but it seemed completely stuck to her skin. Lucy though it meant it was in place. She repeated a similar process with her left leg and then proceed with the smaller ring for her arms. The same phenomenon happened, the two upper ring locked themselves on her skin, just below her shoulder, and became unmovable.

She looked in the camera, and observed the four devices. The ring were so tight around her legs and arms that they were pressed in her skin. this was especially true for her thigh, her skin bulged nicely above and bellow the metallic rings. Unlike what it looked like from her stream, the metal biting in her skin wasn't painful at all, it was surprisingly comfortable. When she wasn't looking at the ring, she could barely feel like they were there. Lucy continuously brushed and touched the rings, pulling and pushing them around just to confirm they were stuck to her body, she felt her excitement grow, she had dreamed of being able to transform her body in wild ways and so far, this was the craziest thing she had done.

She grabbed the last ring, this one could split in two and was meant to be placed around her neck. Jim had wrote to simply clasp it around her neck to start the process.  The click the ring made once closed was sharp and definitive. July looked back at the camera and realized she had not talked for a while.

"So far, everything is going according to the plan. I don't know if it was obvious to you, but the ring around my arms and legs cannot be removed anymore. Locking this one around my neck should start the process." As she said that, she felt all the ring heating slightly.

"Oh... I fell something, I think it's working."

Around the devices, Lucy could feel the first effect of the transformation. The skin of her arms and leg just below the ring seemed to tense, as if the rings were pulling on it. Around her neck, the sensation was less pleasant, the ring seemed to get tighter and sharper around her throat. Soon, the fist visible effect of the transformation happened, the part of Lucy's thighs just below the rings started to slide toward her. Her legs were sliding inside the ring, disappearing progressively as if they were telescopic. Lucy touched her thigh to check that indeed, her skin was crawling slowly inside the metal hoop, making her leg smaller and smaller. Even though the phenomenon seemed to accelerate a little, the process remained very slow. After a few minutes, Lucy had to straighten her leg, as her thigh weren't long enough anymore to allow her to bend her knee. She looked at the feedback of her camera, and saw that she looked like a toddler whose leg are too short for the adult chairs.

Then her arms started to shorten in the same fashion. Slowly, her upper arms started to slide and disappear inside the metal loops she had locked on herself. The portions of her body that were moved inside the rings seemed to vanished, Lucy couldn't fell them anymore and the  section of her arms and legs that were on the other side of the rings didn't change at all. The process was painless, Lucy could only feel the back of her legs sliding smoothly against her seat. She spend some minutes touching her limbs and looking at herself directly or through the camera.

"As you can see, my limbs are getting shorter, soon my elbow will move inside the rings and it will remove a lot of my mobility. I think it will be the point of no return, since I won't be able to grab the ring around my arms anymore after that. I already can't remove them though so I guess I'm already unable to revert my predicament" She laughed.

"I also have a sharp pain around my neck, and as you can hear, my voice is getting dimer, I.. I didn't expect that, I thought this ring was only for activation but..."

Lucy tried to keep composure, but each words were more difficult to produce. Nowhere did Jim mentioned her voice being changed, at least not in the note she had read hurriedly. Finally, a sharp pain traveled all the way through her throat. Lucy opened her mouth wide, to shout her pain out, but no sound were produced. She tried to articulate something but she was completely mute. For a second, she lost composure and gave a panicked stare at the camera. She tired to reach for the clip of her seat belt, but while she was speaking, and then focusing on her neck, a long part of her arms had been swallowed by the ring. Her elbow and a large part of her forearm had already disappeared. Now her arms weren't even long enough for her to touch her belly button, and the latch for the belt was bellow that. Her breathing accelerated, the air going through her neck made a low hissing sound, but she couldn't feel her voice anymore.

Lucy looked around, evaluating all the possibilities she had. She could still move her knee, but they were about to disappear in the metal devices locked around her legs too. Her arms couldn't bend anymore, and she couldn't reach anything useful when flapping them around. The seat belt was well secured and she couldn't wiggle her way out of it or unlock it. Even if she had been able to move freely, and grab the ring, she knew they were locked on her, she was truly helpless and hopeless. She trashed around for a while, but it produce no notable effect other than ruffling her hairs. Soon, she was out of breath, while taking a pause, she remembered that the 30 minutes timer would start at the end of the transformation. Slowly, she started to relax and to gain composure again. All she had to do was to wait, and to enjoy the adventure. Not being able to talk, she didn't even have to entertain her viewers for once, she thought with optimism.

It didn't take long before her arms finished to disappear, they continued to slide inside the rings until her wrists were vanished too. Then the movement stopped, Lucy could feel that the ring around her arms weren't active anymore, they felt colder, the tension in her skin had disappeared. Of Lucy's arms, only the shoulders and the hands were left. She could still move her fingers, and rotate the whole thing around using her shoulders, but without wrists or elbows, her hands kept pointing outward and she couldn't do much with them other than flapping them around like two pathetic wings.

At the same time, Lucy's knee were swallowed, and soon after, her calf and ankle followed. Just like for her arms, the transformation stopped there, leaving almost no mobility to her legs and feet. Reduced as she was, she didn't even know if she would have been able to keep her balance on her chair. Internally, she thanked Jim for installing a security belt. She tried to wiggle a bit, to get in a more comfortable position, but her restraint were working so well she didn't move an inch. She accepted her fate, she would have to tolerate the discomfort until the transformation revert itself.

Once the transformation was complete, the text on Lucy's overlay changed. In the right corner, a timer appeared, indicating that 30:00 minutes were left before the transformation would be reverse. Lucy was glad that Jim's setup seemed to work, however, she didn't remain happy for long. Soon after the timer had appeared, it went from 29:23 to 30:22, and then 31:21. While the second kept running down, some minutes seemed to be added once in a while. Lucy took a look at the other change that had appeared on the screen and her heart sank when she saw what was written in a scrolling banner.

"I've agreed to trap myself. For every 10$ donations, 1 minute will be added to the timer. I cannot stop the process and I didn't set a time limit. Don't worry for me, this device is also conceived to assist my vital functions, I won't starve or anything *wink wink*

"Also... I've a surprise for you if we ever reach 1000 minutes on the timer."

Donation started to flow and the timer already displayed 67 minutes.
