Lisa smiled and took a bow as she came on stage into the bright lights. She couldn't see far into the audience but it was clear the large room was full . She didn't really listen as Matt chatted smoothly with the audience, instead  looking with interest at the prop that was being pushed onto stage from the other wing. 

"Ladies and Gentlemen the real star of my part of the show, Lisa! "

Lisa took another bow and did a twirl. She was wearing a metallic black bikini, well bursting out of would be a better description of the tiny costume. The top triangles were barely half the width of the generous breasts Matt had assembled her with and they matched a thong size lower part. She was barefoot and her chestnut hair was pulled back to a pony tail. Still some of the other acts in the nights burlesque and variety show had been more risque, for once , she figured. 

Lisa struck a pose and stood by the box as Matt spun it around for all to see. It was upright and rather resembled a gingerbread man, a rough outline of a person with legs and arms separated. It was finished in a gloss white with a stylised outline of as assistant on the front. A black circle representing the face, breasts and hip area, hands and feet  and line drawn triangles representing the rest of the body.

"Folks to help and make sure there is no cheating, please welcome back on stage Bella...."

Lisa joined the applause as the singer who had opened the show returned to the stage. A white mini dress and high boots set off her dark skin and slender figure. 

"Dont look so worried, the box is for Lisa,....." 

With that Lisa backed smoothly into the box which was a clearly a very snug fit , holding her arms out the the side and legs a little apart. Matt closed the doors, which needed a real shove to close over Lisa's generous chest and gave the box a further spin.

"Bella is Lisa still in there do you think ? " 

"She must be, I cant see how she could have gone anywhere ..."

"Good, but I know no one trusts a Magician ... " 

With that Matt popped the black disc from the head part of the box, revealing Lisa's smiling face 

"Hi! "

He quickly did the same with the smaller discs at the end of the boxes arms and legs , to reveal very alive fingers and toes. 

"All those bits real ?" 

Bella brushed Lisa's cheek , squeezed her left hand then bobbed down carefully to feel the wriggling left toes before confirming all the parts were real 

"OK Bella have you ever cut a girl in half ? " 

Bella chuckled "Of course not" 

"Well here's your chance !"

Lisa grinned and wiggled her fingers and toes once more as Matt replaced the cover for her face .

"No need to worry her, but I will leave the other bits open, so you can see shes still there ..."

Lisa took a deep breath as she heard the next bit of the patter from her box, she quite liked the idea of being divided by the sexy singer. She could here Matt invite her to test the blades, her the clang as she banged two dividers and the confirmation that they were solid and were the same width of the box ...  She certainly heard the scrap of the first blade being lined up with a slot at the middle of the box then felt the sharp edge press against her just above her hips. 

Taking a deep breath Lisa closed her eyes picturing the sexy black singer pressing the blade home. A second later apinch and a crush, then a huge wave of pleasure as the blade scraped easily into its guide, and right through her waist.

Bella gasped as she felt the blade slide easily home, she looked worriedly at the exposed fingers and toes which were wriggling madly but otherwise seemed healthy enough.

"Don't look so worried Bella your first time is always the hardest....Here try this one.."

A few seconds later the singer had guided a second blade home along side the first. This time she thudded it home with an air of confidence.

Matt turned the box around and had Bella slide and wiggle the blades, so the audience could clearly see the sharp edges at the back of the box.LIsa bet the singer had no idea the effect that had on her ! Completing the revolution Matt smiled and removed the face cover once more. 

"All ok  in there ?" 

"Of course!" 

"Then we shall continue ..."

Matt handed Bella a smaller blade and helped her line it up with the narrower neck part of the box as recovered Lisa's smiling face. 

"Go on it will be ok.." 

Seconds later Lisa gasped as a blade shot quickly through her neck, quickly followed by a second . That girl was getting braver quick! 

"Still ok in there Lisa ? " Matt asked without opening the face cover . Lisa waved with one hand and made an ok sign with the other as the box was displayed all around again .

"What do you think Bella ? Impressed ? Sure Lisa is still in there ? "

Bella paused thoughtfully and nodded . "Its sure a lot more convincing than most magic I see on TV but . To be honest ? I thought it would be even more different"

Matt paused for a second and smiled. 

"Don't worry, we can do some more ...." On cue a stage  hand pushed on a trolley holding many more blades, to huge applause. Lisa wondered curiously what was going to happen next, excited not at all worried.

"First off, lets be sure Lisa is still ok ... " Matt removed the face cover once more, Lisa smiled confidently. 

"Now Bella, we will take a side each and you follow me.." 

Bella looked puzzled for a second then smiled as she realised what was going on. Copying Matt she took a small blade, gave it a bang and followed Matt's lead and pushed it home through the box between the body of the box and its arm. Lisa gasped and then smiled as a second blade on each side completed the set. 

"Shes definitely in there now !" Bella exclaimed as Matt had her add the next pair of blades, at the forty five degree junction between the left leg of the box and the body, right where Lisa's hips must be. She had heard Lisa's moan as the first blade when in and had a thoughtful expression on her face as she stepped back while Matt did another twirl of the box.

"Bella you can see all the blades were solid and go right through the box ... "The singer nodded "and you can see Lisa is still in the box ? " Another nod. "So Lisa must be in five pieces ? "

"I er, well, I, she , I suppose she must be..." 

"I don't think you are convinced this magic is real you know, so lets carry on.. " 

Lisa must have looked a little shocked as she caught Bella's eye. They shared a moment then Bella grinned "OK lets do it ... what do I do ?  "

Matt grinned and handed Bella another larger blade. The singer paused, clearly wondering where was left to place it. 

"Actually..." Matt paused, took the blade back and winked conspiratorially at his helper. " You know how the disc covering Lisa's face came off ? " 

"Uh huh ? " The singer nodded looking puzzled.

"Try the same trick with the disc on her left chest "

Lisa could here the gasp in the audience. And see the shock on Bella's face. "Its ok " she smiled . The crowd who had been loudly appreciative so far suddenly went quiet.

Bella nodded and felt the edge of the black disc and peeled it away, as if it was on velcro. As she did a firm breast struggling to escape from a tiny black bikini popped forward, clearly having been tightly compressed by the door. Lisa grinned and sighed, " thats better" showing no hint of embarassment as Matt revealed the other boob.

"Bella, check those are real too please " Matt grinned. This time Bella needed no further encouragement and made a great play of feeling and squeezing each before nodding.

"OK then lets get on"

Bella was astonished that Lisa smiled calmly as Matt directed her to line the next blade up vertically between Lisa's freshly revealed bikini, filling a slot from neck to waist. She pressed the blade and felt strong resistance before it suddenly found its way, thudding home with a groan from Lisa .. 

"Shes ok , do the other one..." 

Bella nodded and fitted the second blade into Lisa's chest. She stood back figuring the trick was done but Matt stopped her handing her two smaller blades. "One last bit of slicing Bella"

Lisa closed her eyes as the penultimate blade was lined up and then pushed home vertically under her waist down to the base of the body of the box, god it felt good, so did its friend!

"So there you have it folks ..  Lisa is divided into 9, yes 9 pieces .. Ladies and Gentlemen, Bella, and of course, Lisa! " 

Bella took a bow and got ready to start removing blades. Matt however stopped her, and beckoned another prop onto stage. It seemed to be an open book shelf on wheels, 4 shelves high.

"What now? ". Bella asked nervously.

"Bella , you know i bet some people still don't believe Lisa is really divided, so there is one more thing you can do for me " 

"OK "

"You can take Lisa apart and stack her on the shelves there ..."

"What!?!" 

"Its ok , she will be fine, go ahead.." 

"How ?" 

"Just take a section of the box and it will come away with a click" 

Tentatively Bella took the long thing part of the box covering Lisa's left arm, complete with wiggling fingers at one end. She gave it a gentle pull and there was a click and the box came away easily. Bella screamed as the fingers still wiggled and looked aghast at Matt. He nodded reassuringly and beckoned to the shelves. Looking a little shell shocked Bella put the box on oen of the middle shelves.

The right arm came off the same way and was placed blade end on on the top shelf, Bella warming to the task. Then she realised the next box would mean moving Lisa's head. Visibly taking a deep breath she grasped the head box from  behind and lifted. Then she carried the small box with Lisa's grinning face still visible across the stage placing it on the bottom shelf at one end.

Matt joined her at what was left of Lisa and they took a side each, both lifting away a small box with a very sexy bikini clad breast projecting from the front. Bella put hers on the top shelf in the centre while placed his on a middle shelf . The two halves of Lisa's lower torso followed, Bella couldn't help but wonder about just where those blades had gone . Finally the two leg boxes were moved, leaving 9 boxes randomly arranged on the shelves, all bar two having bits of Lisa clearly visible.

Lisa lapped up the attention as Bella pushed the unit around the stage, waving wiggling and wriggling as best she could to show each part was real. She was not the least bit surprised to be wheeled off stage as she was as the sexy singer got ready for her next number
