Chapter 1
I have to tell you that I am kind of a geek. Really a motor head geek. I have always loved anything mechanical. As a kid I used to take things apart to see how they worked. Trouble was, I never quite got them back together right. I had the idea as a young child to make my bike front wheel drive. I learned that you couldn't turn left, not enough chain, and when you turned right, the chain fell off. That was the end of that. Here I was 18 years old on the hefty side and 6 feet tall. I had short black hair. Not exactly every woman's dream.
My friend Ron was the chemical geek. Ron had a chemistry set at an early age and would try to come up with something. He made his own sparklers at the 4th of July. He made his own smoke/stink bombs that really smelled! Ron was the quite one, and I was the somewhat rowdy one. Ron was about 5'-8" tall and on the skinny side. Neither of us were bad kids and we didn't get into a lot of trouble. Mainly because my Mother was a Jr. High school teacher. She kind of ruled us.
Ron's mother had died at an early age. His Dad traveled a lot with his job at Ford and sometimes gone of over a week at a time. After his Mom died, Ron spent a lot of time at our house. My parents didn't mind because he was so quite that sometimes you weren't sure he was even around. When we were Freshmen in High School, his Dad married Samantha. This gave Ron a Mother and his Dad piece of mind. It kind of relieved my parents as well from having to take care of another child.
Samantha had been a waitress at a truck stop about 20 minute drive from our small town. She had died blonde big hair, huge 44D breasts and had never been married. We always thought that she severed more than coffee to the truckers. She had that road hard look about her. Even though she was in her early 40's, she kinda looked like she was 50. But, she satisfied his Dad and she got a beautiful home to call her own. The trouble was, when his Dad was home she was the perfect Mother. When he was gone, she could have cared less about Ron and even was always annoyed when I was around.
When his Dad was gone, Ron was her servant. He cooked the meals, kept the house cleaned and was always getting her beer for her. Still, it was better than having no one and kept his Dad from worrying. So it was no surprise when Ron called me one day. It was early in our Summer Vacation between our Sophomore and Junior years in High School. Ron was not one to ask for a lot of favors. He was quite and would give you his last dollar even if he needed it. So when he called me and asked me to come over, I said I would be right over. I hopped in my car and 10 minutes later I was pulling into their driveway.
I knocked on their front door and Samantha answered it. She about as happy to see me as she would a Jehovah Witness. She called for Ron and he came out of his room. We walked back to his room and he was as excited as I had ever seen him.
Ron closed his bedroom door. "I found it!" He said.
"Found what?" I asked.
"I found the answers to our problems." He answered.
"We have problems?" I was confused.
"I'll say! I found it!" I had never seen this excited!
"Okay, I'll bite. What are our problems?" I had to know.
"Girls! My friend!" His eyes were as big as saucers.
"You invented a girl?"
"No, but I invented a way to get them."
He produced a packet that resembled a packet of headache powder.
"Headache powder? That's the answer?"
"No! That's just what I wrapped my Pixie Dust into."
"Your Pixie Dust?" I was even more confused now.
"That's what I call it. It's made up of several chemicals." He answered.
Ron proceeded to tell me what was in it. Most of the stuff I had never heard of. About the only chemical I knew was caffeine. He said that was to get it into the blood stream fast. The other chemicals were later part of the drug GHB, the Date Rape drug, and even had some LSD in it. There was one other ingredient in it I recognized. Powder Sugar for some sweetness. I didn't want to know where he got the stuff, so I didn't even ask.
He said that it was a Psycho-tropic drug that once into the blood stream had an effect on the brain similar to someone who was hypnotized. He said that it couldn't make you Eric Clapton if you didn't know how to play guitar, or really anything you didn't want to do. But that it released any inhibition that you might have. You couldn't give it to a young girl and tell her to give you a blow job, because she wouldn't know what that was. He said the effects only lasted a few minutes, but that it kind of reprogrammed the brain. He also explained that the "victim" could either be brought out of it with a loud noise like a loud clap of the hands or just let them come out of it slowly.
I had to know one question. "How do you know it works?"
"I tested it!" He held the little packets like they were the holy grail!
"Just how did you test it?"
"I recorded my voice, then took the dust. When I woke up, I did what I had told myself to do!"
"You tested this on yourself? Are you nuts?" I asked. "How do you know you just did it because you wanted to do it?
"I told myself that every time Samantha asked for a beer, I would pee in the kitchen sink. Now that's something that I would NEVER do!" He was absolutely giddy. I mean NEVER! Yet here I was peeing in the kitchen sink!"
"Ron you are whacked!" I was rubbing my face. "IF this works, we would need to test it on someone other than us."
We looked at each other and at the same time, "Samantha!"
