It wasn't long into the search that one box in particular caught Laura's attention. a sky-blue coloured box with images and patterns of castles, beautiful horses, ballroom dance silhouettes... basically one themed on a royal fairy tale; inside being a decorative purple dress with puffy shoulder with the sleeves ending just by the elbows, the edges of the dress covered the section of spring in a was to allow it to flow out whenever it was opened with a user. finally a gold coloured with light-green plastic gems tiara and matching bracelets were sitting loose atop the dress.
"this is the one" Laura calmly announced after checking the size on the label. "Ah a princess box... part of the royal theme set" Lewis remarked before pondering "that said most girls aim for pink dresses and that one I recall being purple". "purple's my favourite colour" Laura assured. alright then" Lewis accepted. "how much?" Ashley then asked. "21.00... but we discount by 27% on family buys like yours" Lewis answered assuredly "that is if your also interested... also in turn with your daughter's age we run a special exchange system to adapt". "and that means what exactly?" Dante asked in turn. "you return the box once your daughter becomes to big for it, we in exchange for it can provide a replacement with a serious discount as the money mostly comes from the old box" Lewis explained "just be sure to keep the receipt". "can we try it-" Ashley then started. "NO" Lewis loudly interrupted "only after purchase can customers get in. thankfully we provide changing rooms to do so". "GREAT" Laura accepted.
soon after leaving Lewis and performing the transaction of cash "there we go. now if you spoke with mr Sharp you may be aware-" the cashier started. "he told us all about the changing rooms so don't worry" Dante assured. "so can I use one?" Laura requested. "so long as your mother here helps as these dress ones zip at the back" the cashier agreed as she pointed at the changing rooms. "I'll be just outside for when your ready" Dante insisted. "thanks dad" Laura agreed as she and Ashley headed inside her chosen changing room.
Once shut within the changing room Laura striped down to her underwear so that the rest of her clothes didn't interfere with the dress. as she unzipped the back she and Ashley noticed that what was currently holding the dress within the vox as a wired stockings sized to fit two lets tightly together with a pattern based on the coated spring as expected. "well... in we go" Laura called as she started putting her legs into the stocking and once finished pulled her arms through the sleeves and tidied herself up and placed both the bracelets and tiara on ready to be zipped up. "you sure about this Laura?" Ashley asked in worry. "sure I'm sure. zip me up mum" Laura answered with Ashley proceeding to pull the zip closed.
Upon getting zipped-in Laura started crouching down hoping to give her mum a fright in a little while and thankfully for her the lid of the box closed itself once Laura and the dress were both fully tucked inside...
...that was when Laura felt it as her legs and the stocking started melding into one and fused her to the box. then Laura's legs reformatted into the very spring advertised being attached to her body as were the tiara sticking firmly to her forehead to assure it wound not fly off during her pop-up.
"Laura? you alright?" Ashley called after Laura had been within the box for 5 minutes before trying to open it herself...only the moment her hands touched the lid Laura burst out "GOT CHA" Laura laughed while allowing the spring to wobble her about while she laughed. "not funny little lady" Ashley snapped back "anyhow its worked so time to change back and head home". "well..." Laura started with Ashley worried over the answer:
