Ryan couldn’t believe it. He had lost. How his two best friends had beat him, he couldn’t figure out. He was the best. Had been, anyway. He looked up at Raiden and Ryuu wincing slightly at the evil looks on their faces. Thirteen-year-old twins Raiden and Ryuu Tanaka’s parents had moved them to America from Japan soon after the boys were born. They had grown up next door to Ryan all becoming good friends. That didn’t mean the Tanaka brothers would go easy on Ryan. Deep down, Ryan knew he wouldn’t have gone easy on them.

“How about best two out of three?” Ryan pleaded.

“No, way. You said one game and you’d blow us away.” Raiden replied.

“That didn’t happen, did it?” Ryuu added with a grin.

Ryan looked again hoping the results had changed and that he had really won.

“You won’t really make me…” Ryan started but gave up. He knew he’d have to make good on his bet, especially if he expected them to do so should they lose in the future.

Raiden and Ryuu were talented magicians. They could do all the usual card tricks and other “kiddie” magician stuff, but they were also fairly decent illusionists. They had used Ryan in some of their shows; something Ryan usually liked being part of. Due to losing this bet, Ryan cringed at the thought of participating. Though Ryan knew his two friends were good magicians, he didn’t know that Raiden, the older twin, could do just a little bit of real magic. Something that would help make the outcome of Ryan’s lost bet even more interesting.

Raiden and Ryuu were in the school’s talent show and Ryan would play his usual role, that is, until the part he had to pay off his bet. Ryan waited back stage with his friends until their turn came. Normally, Ryan was as cool and calm as his two friend but today butterflies filled his stomach. He turned to face his friends once again, about 10 minutes prior to when their act was to begin. Ryan stood a little bit shorter than his two friends, yet has about average height for his age. He was very skinny and wiry. Raiden and Ryuu were identical to the last. Both were lean and athletic. Their thick black hair seemed to be messed up exactly the same way so that very few people could tell them apart.

“Let me do something else, something really awful.” Ryan offered.

“No.” Raiden replied. “This will be really awful…” he paused to widen his cheesy grin and to emphasize, “…for you!”

Ryuu snorted causing Raiden to chuckle, too.

Ryan sat down on a nearby chair thinking he might faint. Was this really going to happen? And in front of the kids of his school?

Ryan’s head came up a few moments later when he heard the emcee call for the magical talents of the Tanaka brothers. The two boys gave a thumbs up to Ryan as they headed out on stage. Ryan figured he had a chance right now to run away, but that just would not do. No, he had plans for when they lost and they had better hope they never lose, he thought.

Part way through the act, he heard Raiden call for their assistant and Ryan headed out toward the stage. He looked down at his feet as it felt like someone had swapped his shoes for cement blocks. A second call got him going and he ran out trying to perform as he normally did.

Raiden and Ryuu wore black tuxedos, but not fancy ones. They were ones they had gotten cheaply from a store during its day-after-Halloween sale on costumes. But, it still gave a nice effect. Ryan, as usual, was dressed in black track pants, black shoes and socks, and a black t-shirt which Raiden had found really helped the visuals of the illusions.

Using their witty banter and grand showmanship, they informed the audience of what awaited their assistant. It had bothered Ryan the first few shows he helped in that they referred to him as their assistant and never by name. Enjoying his part in the shows he soon overcame this annoyance. Today, hardly anything was registering. He was so glad he’d done the show many times before as it could only be his auto-pilot that kept him going since his dread of what would happen soon almost completely consumed him.

He stepped into the box and turned to face the audience. A shiver went up and down his spine. Raiden and Ryuu closed the two bottom doors leaving only Ryan’s head and neck visible. They rotated the box 360 degrees showing all sides to the audience. Then, closing the top door, they began the illusion.

Very reluctantly, Ryan wished they just get the worst part over. But he dutifully did what he had to do to make it look like he’d been chopped into three parts as his friends put the blades through the box, rearranging the parts, and then opening various doors to make it appear as though Ryan had been rearranged. They put the parts back in the correct order, rotated the box giving Ryan time to get back into position, and then opened the three doors to show a complete and unharmed Ryan. The audience voiced its approval.

“Our assistant survived being chopped up,” declared Raiden, “who would like to see him disappear?”

The audience cheered egged on by Ryuu. While Ryuu kept them cheering for a bit, Raiden faced Ryan and winked. Ryan truly hoped to disappear. He knew that, unlike the other times he participated in this illusion, he would not sneak out the back under cover of the Tanaka brother’s uncanny ability to keep the audience’s attention elsewhere.

He would still be there when Raiden opened the doors to show he had disappeared.

Ryan once again entered the box. Working to keep his balance, he began to remove his clothes while Raiden and Ryuu rotated the box twice. Knowing Ryan would need a few more moments than usual, the brothers had worked a few extras into the act to keep the audience occupied and interested. Ryan did use the secret escape door, but only to put his clothes in a pile behind the box. He took a deep breath dismayed at what was about to happen.

“And Ta! Da! Ladies and gentlemen!” Raiden shouted as he opened the top door revealing Ryan’s head and neck. It took all of Ryan’s courage to try to look smug that the trick hadn’t seemed to work. Raiden played his role wonderfully looking confused that Ryan was still there. Ryuu added a good touch by scratching his head pretending to be puzzled by the failed trick.

“You didn’t disappear.” Raiden stated sounding truly perplexed.

Ryan gulped trying to remember his lines. Mustering his strength, he continued with his smug look and replied, “Nope, I’m still here. Seems it’s your abilities that have vanished, not me.”

The audience was chuckling a bit at this as Raiden and Ryuu stood there talking to Ryan’s head trying to figure out what had gone wrong with the trick. Raiden did write very good scripts for their shows. Ryan even briefly forgot about his predicament as he got lost in the repartee. He found his jitters once again, however, when he heard Raiden tell him he might as well step out so they can move on to the next trick.

Ryan braced himself as best as he could. He involuntarily took another very deep breath. Facing the audience in order to be “surprised” with them, Raiden and Ryuu opened the two remaining doors in quick succession. Ryan heard the audience gasp and saw them staring at him in stunned silence. He had to pretend not to know why as he stepped out of the box stark naked. Though still somewhat thin, his penis was a bit longer than average. His balls normally hung down nicely, but it was a bit cold in the theater. How badly he wanted to close his eyes and be somewhere else (fully clothed) but he stood there with his hands on his hips trying to scowl at the audience pretending not to know why they were staring.

Suddenly, the audience came to life. Cheering, cat-calling, whistling, and, of course, cameras and cell phones came to life. Raiden and Ryuu took this as their cue to look at Ryan. Feigning great surprise, Raiden looked back at the audience and quipped, “Looks like we did make something disappear.”

That was Ryan’s cue to look down and pretend to be embarrassed. There was no pretending involved. How he had kept his face from burning red with embarrassment up to this point is anybody’s guess. With blood pulsating through the veins in his face, he quickly moved his hands to cover his exposed genitals. Though this brought a small amount of relief to him, he still had no trouble looking embarrassed having no need to act in order to do so.

Though Ryan had wondered long before this day came how much trouble they would get in, his two friends never seemed too worried. Granted, they wouldn’t be naked in front of the school, but certainly the principal would punish them right along with Ryan. However, to Ryan’s surprise and dismay, the teachers merely looked on, some with slight grins on their faces, making no attempt to put a stop to any of this.

“But wait, there’s more!” Raiden shouted above the audience’s din.

Ryan quickly looked over at Raiden with widening eyes and a questioning look. “More?” he mouthed silently. Raiden couldn’t contain his wicked grin.

“Ryuu, please do the honors.” Raiden said to his brother.

Ryan knew that to pay his lost bet he had to end up having his clothes disappear rather than himself and to be exposed for a few seconds on stage at this show. Then he could quickly leave. This surprising statement from Raiden paralyzed Ryan in place, something Raiden had counted on happening.

The audience had grown a bit quieter at this statement, eyes fixed on the naked boy, one whom many of the girls wished he’d remove his hands from what they were covering. Ryan simply stared dumbfounded at Ryuu who was moving what looked kind of like a door frame (without the door) toward him. Raiden kept tossing out clever remarks while waiting, but he didn’t have to in order to keep the audience’s attention. Once Ryuu had the frame device situated such that Ryan was standing under it, he grabbed Ryan’s right arm, pulled it away from his crotch and secured it in a strap that Ryan had failed to notice. This put the audience into a new frenzy seeing Ryan now only had one had to cover up his penis and balls. Ryan was thunderstruck. What was going on? He wanted to shout this to his two friends, but nothing came out. It worked out well for Ryuu who thought Ryan would put up a struggle for the left arm. However, Ryan had been too shocked from the initial handcuffing he didn’t think in time to prevent his other arm from also being strapped up. So, in another moment, both Ryan’s arms were secured above his head and his genitals were again on full display to a seemingly very appreciative audience. Being briefly naked in front of his classmates and the rest of the Jr. High classes had been terrible enough. This time, however, he had no chance to cover up at all. The screams and cheers were almost deafening. And still, the teachers did nothing.

“Ryan will now assist us in a levitation act.” Raiden stated.

The shock at being fully naked with no cover possibilities wore off to be replaced by new alarm at Raiden’s announcement. He also took brief notice that Raiden had called him by name, rather than as the assistant. It was to help further humiliate Ryan and seemed to work.

“But before doing so, Ryuu, let’s make sure that there’s nothing up our sleeves…we know there’s nothing up Ryan’s!” Raiden said to laughter from the audience.

Ryuu started turning the frame making Ryan realize they were going to show all the sides like they did with the other props. His face reddened even more since, even though he was no longer facing the audience, Ryuu had stopped rotating the frame so that his bare butt could be viewed by them for a few moments.

“One more time?” Raiden asked the audience. They gave a resounding “yes!”

Ryuu turned Ryan back to face the audience and kept on going a second time stopping to allow a few more viewing moments of his bare butt.

Finally, Ryuu returned the mortified naked Ryan back to face the audience.

“Now, let’s see what’s coming up next!” Raiden shouted aiming his wand toward Ryan’s penis. The audience snickered at this. Ryan looked in horror. Raiden couldn’t mean what he thought he meant, could he?

Raiden muttered what sounded to most people to be nonsense words but what Raiden and his twin knew to be some real magic, and some levitation did start to happen. Ryan’s look of dismay worsened as his penis began to twitch, then to slowly rise, hardening and lifting up until it pointed straight out at the audience causing a few of the girls to nearly faint and all of them to scream (and take pictures) with renewed vigor.

Smiling contentedly at the audience, Raiden wondered out loud whether Ryan had any other surprises for them while all the time, seemingly absentmindly, slowly waving his wand back and forth. Ryan noticed immediately that this had the effect of feeling as though someone was stroking his penis. “NO! NO! NO!” his mind shouted, but again, nothing verbal occurred. Ryan’s body convulsed as he shot his load timed perfectly with Raiden’s pun about coming and going. Ryan hung his head down in shame as the audience exploded in delight and amusement.

“Maybe, his other cheeks need to match the ones on his face.” Raiden said. Ryan slowly shook his head from side-to-side realizing his naked ordeal still wasn’t over. His brain, in the tiny space left that wasn’t dedicated to handling all of Ryan’s embarrassment, kept tossing around two questions: why were his friends doing this and why wasn’t anyone—especially the teachers—stopping them.

Ryuu dutifully turned Ryan’s bare butt to the audience and left to retrieve a paddle grinning the whole time. Upon returning to his naked friend’s side, Ryuu saw the tears in Ryan’s eyes. As Raiden made a few more bad jokes about Ryan’s two sets of cheeks, Ryuu whispered that all would be explained later. This did little, if anything, to comfort Ryan.

Shortly thereafter, Ryan had another sensation to consider. The whacks he started to receive on his bare butt gave his brain some pain to briefly replace his embarrassment. However, the pain seemed more than happy to allow embarrassment to accompany it so Ryan dejectedly started experiencing both.

Upon Raiden’s completion of reddening Ryan’s butt, Ryuu slowly rotated the red cheeked boy around several times for comparison.

“On with the show!” Raiden shouted.

“Oh, no, now what?” Ryan thought miserably. “What more can they do to me?” Somewhat to his relief he soon found out nothing more would happen to him as Ryuu wheeled him out still strapped to the frame. Ryuu let Ryan go, pointed out where his clothes were, and went back on stage to complete the show. There wasn’t much left of it as the naked and humiliated Ryan was a hard act to follow.

Raiden and Ryuu found Ryan standing (he had tried to sit down and quickly found his burning buns wouldn’t allow that for a while) and only half-dressed. With some encouragement from his friends (friends? he wondered) he finished dressing. He should have been furious with them; yet, he quietly went with them as they lead him down to the principal’s office. They left him outside the door so they could return to see whether or not they had won the contest.

“Ryan.” a deep voice said.

Ryan jumped a bit at this. He looked to see Mr. Caine, the principal, beckoning him to come into his office.

Raiden and Ryuu returned several minutes later to find Ryan back outside waiting for them.

“Did he tell you?” they asked their very subdued friend. He nodded hating that he had to acknowledge why they were allowed to do what they did.

“Are you mad at us?” they asked him. Though they had enjoyed humiliating their friend, they realized just how rotten they’d been, even with permission.

“Yes.” he replied quietly.

“Have you plotted your revenge?” Raiden asked.

For the first time that day, Ryan’s face sported a very small grin.

“Oh, yeah.” he said, again, quite softly.

As the three friends left with Ryan trying to get them to tell them how they did the levitate part, Raiden and Ryuu knew they were in trouble if they ever lost a bet to Ryan. But, if you can’t horribly humiliate and be humiliated by your best friends, then who can?
