An oldie but a goodie

added 7 years ago O

Dina brought an old brass bracelet up to the counter.

"Okay, old man. This thing feels right somehow. What does it do?" asked Dina.

"Ah, an oldie but a goodie, " said the old man. "That, my young friend, is a bracelet of transference. It allows you to transfer characteristics from one person to another. You can transfer anything - height, strength, breast tissue, hair color, even intelligence. You just slip the bracelet on your body, make physical contact with the person with the feature you desire, and then think about what feature you want to drain into yourself. "

"Cool, that sounds great! How much? " asked Dina.

"For you, two hundred dollars, " said the old man.

"Two hundred dollars! I don't have that kind of money, " said Dina.

"Okay, okay, how about this? Why don't you keep the bracelet for 24 hours, on a trial basis? If you are happy with your purchase, we will make some sort of deal. I am sure I can find some way for you to work off your debt, " said the old man.

"Sounds good to me. You have a deal, " said Dina, as she shook the old man's hand.

"Not so fast. Regardless of your final decision, you must return to my shop after 24 hours. At that time, you must either return the item, or keep it and accept the terms of our deal, " said the old man.

"Yeah, yeah. I get it: the old Cinderella clause, or something. Like I said, you gotta deal. Now gimmie, " said Dina, holding her cat paws out for the bracelet. The old man dropped it into her hands, and she quickly placed it on her arm. Suddenly, she got a wicked smile on her face, and looked at the old man.

"Don't even think about trying it, " said the old man. "That item may be old, but I have been around a much longer time. I have more than enough protection against a simple magical item like that. Now, I suggest you be on your way. Your trial period has started, and you are wasting precious time."

Dina started walking out the store, fingering the bracelet as left.

"Wait!" said the old man. "I almost forgot. I need to give you a warning. The transference is one way, from the victim to the holder of the bracelet. The effects can be reversed, but only if another user transfers the changes from a pervious owner to themselves. I highly recommend you be very selective and conservative in your choices, unless you have someone you can really trust to help you if you go a little overboard."

Dina nodded, and headed out the door.
