Mike was perplexed, but that didn't last long. It quickly turned to
terror. He was deflated amorphous tiny piece of rubber lying inert on
the counter of some store. He had no idea what had happened to him,
except that he had massively shrunk, and was now immobile. He was so
cold, so helpless, it terrified him.
Then there was thunderous laughter. A clown in oversize green and
yellow striped pants with purple suspenders with green and yellow and
pink polka dots strolled in. He wore a shirt that appeared to have
turned pink from washing it in hot water with the red socks that were
visible between his bell bottom pants and his size 30 yellow clown
shoes. He had a satchel strapped over his shoulder with balsa wood
sticks sticking out. He looked around the store carefully, and then
reached out for Mike.
Mike stared as the giant hand in a fingerless white glove reached down
for him. He couldn't move, he was helpless to resist. The powerful
tree-trunk-like fingers picked him up. The other hand reached over.
He was stretched and snapped. Then he was lifted toward the giant
clown's mouth. He stared at the building sized white made up face
with bulbous red nose, painted smile and eyes and the garish rainbow
wig on its head, and he couldn't tell whether it was male or female.
The face seemed vaguely familiar, but it was so big & painted so
garishly he couldn't place it. The familiarity filled him with
terror.
Soon wet lips pressed against his valve and he felt hot air filling
and expanding his body. Against his better judgment Mike felt
exhilarated. The hot air warmed him inside. His uncontrolled
movement made him feel alive. The clown's deft fingers tugged at his
partially inflated body, and he blew again expanding Mike a bit more.
Then he tied a knot in Mike and began to rub and twist his body. It
was only when Mike caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror that he
realized he was being made into a balloon animal. He wanted to scream,
but all his rubber body did was squeak under the deft ministrations of
the clown. The next thing Mike knew he was tied to a stick and the
clown was heading out of the store into the mall.
