Unfair Balance: A Little Twist

Unending BE - episode 259375

In a smokey, firey flash Lust appeared in the center of the pentagram, surrounded by the five summoners. The smoke cleared and she found herself being starred at by five naked young women all with stunned looks on their faces.

"Holy shit," Vivian said, "It worked."

"SILENCE!" Lust shouted, mainly for effect, "You have summoned me. What is it you want?" Of course, she knew darn well what she wanted but, like any good trickster, Lust wanted the girls to feel they had the upper hand.

The five stood. "We each have a wish to request," Mina said.

"Ah, wishes. Of course, that's what most everyone wants. I'd be happy to help out. Of course, you do know that wishes come with a price. Are you willing to pay my price?"

"S... souls?" Roxanne stammered. "You want our souls?"

"Everyone always thinks that's what I'm after," Lust said, "And usually I am. But no, not tonight. Tonight's price is part of a grander plan. You won't have to do anything at all, in fact. I'll handle everything. Do you have a deal?"

The five looked at one another and then proclaimed "Yes!".

"Then let's begin. What can I do for you?"

Tina, Mina, Roxanne, Vivian, and Danielle each outlined their desires. Lust listened intently, taking in every word, and thinking up a cunning twist to each wish. Once they had all finished speaking, Lust made with the magic.

"I hereby grant your wishes," she said. At once all five felt their bodies tingling and glowing slightly. "For Mina, I give you wealth. In you bank account you will find fifty million dollars." Of course Lust didn't bother to mention...

  1. ... that it was stolen money. Lust had tweaked reality and turned Mina into a world class thief, except she didn't know it.
  2. *... that it was money earned from stripping at the local strip club. Lust had tweaked reality and turned Mina into a stripper, except she didn't know it.
  3. ... that the money was tied up in the stock market, and in the morning the stock she'd invested in would bottom out.
  4. ... that the money was already spent. In a matter of days huge credit card bills would arrive in the mail.
  5. Something Else
