Part 2

Connie woke up first the next day. there was a note for him left by abby. It read "Did you see that bathtub upstairs in the dollhouse? well, I grabbed some snow from outside and had Cubix heat it up. you can now have a nice hot bath. The cabinet upstairs has the outfit I picked for you last night. Just in case you disagree with my choice of outfit, cubix has the recording from last night where you agreed to my terms. I'm off to find food. see ya later"

Connie had to admit that the water felt good.He/She walked over to the cabinet with some measure of trepidation. His fear had a good grounding. She had picked out a pair of pink hi-cut panties, a red pushemup bra(which surprised Connie who never knew a barbie doll who wore one) and a cheerleaders outfit from Bubbletown High.The underwear was not a problem. but the bra was so difficult, he had to get cubix to help.The cute red skirt cut off at .23 millimeters above his knee. the fluffy sweater was no major crisis either. It was The flash of light that distracted him. abby was standing in the door with a tiny camera. She laughed "Sis boom bah. Connie" then she said "get out of the bathroom, Cubix has to recycle the water for Chelsea." Connie and Abby headed back into the doll kitchen where some bacon and eggs were waiting. Connie's surprise must have translated to her face because maximex said " there was a whole room full of food, yah and it's all for us." Chelsea and May came downstairs in such a foul mood you could see their faces from three rooms away. Chelsea was wearing a white communion dress, and may was wearing a mumu with a long flowing skirt.the three boys sat down at the table and were on the receiving end of another flash from the camera. As the picture developed, Abby put a label on it that read "Aren't they pretty?" In the next three minutes, the boys made a collective mess of 1 pound all over their skirts and dresses. Abby rushed upstairs to the closet and pulled out three sundresses, and three slips. she laid them out on the table and went off to find some soap. cubix was starting to enjoy the prospect so he went with her, leaving a message that Abby wanted the boys to strip down to their underwear, put on the slips and dresses and wait. after three minutes, she still hadn't come back so the boys got to talking. Connie spoke first "guys, or should I say girls, we're in deep sludge." that was enough for the other two. They turned to cerebrex who was beeping loudly. apparently he had just picked up on the temporal flux. And after ten seconds, another piece of information surfaced that pleased May of all of them. It was a long-winded, technical jargon speech that when translated into english sounded something like "they longer we stay shrunk, the more we have to eat, just to stay alive. as this is the first real day, we'll have to eat four meals today." Connie laughed at this and said "In two doll days, we'll be eating like hobbits." Only dondon, chelsea and cerebrex understood the reference, simply because May was never much for reading.Abby arrived in the dollhouse with a 1/2 bar of soap and told all the boys "we have a lot of work to do with you, so lets start by learning how to handwash your clothes." she had thrown as much sarcasm into the last two words that even May understood the implication. The boys got into a soapfight, but even through this the grease-stained clothes became clean and were dried by Cubix's turbine fan. Lesson Two began with Abby grabbing a dress and ducking into the bathroom to put it on. She had seen "flashes " of underwear when the boys sat down for breakfast and thought it was unacceptable. She came out in a nice electric blue gown. "Okay, girls, we'll be working on a point system until lunch, The one who has the most points through your next four lessons, chooses what we will eat. First lesson, sitting like a girl." She showed them once only how to put the legs together when sitting down, and then once only how to cross the legs so no one would see their "assets" each of the three robots was told to calculate on a system of two points for every successful sitdown, with a fraction of a point lost for doing it wrong. As the boys started to sit Abby took yet another picture, titled "girl's first sitting lesson" Connie turned to her and asked what the pictures were for. Abby simply smiled and said "I'm not going to blackmail you, if that's what you think. I was going to put these in a special photo album so we can always remember these three days." Cubix walked up behind her and whispered in her ear the truth about doll-time. Soon abby was on the verge on a nervous breakdown, stuttering about "tiny... three weeks...stuck with the boys" connie got up from the couch and picked up a rubber glove and slapped Abby across both cheeks. when that didn't work, he bent down and kissed her for three seconds. Abby snapped out of it and spoke softly to connie "thanks,connor, I needed that. but if you ever kiss me again during our three weeks together, you'll be the first one in diapers and frocks,you understand?" the lesson was over and the score was Chelsea 17 3/4, Connie 15 1/2, and May 7.together they moved into phase two, makeup. Abby demonstrated twice this time. Eyeshadow,mascara,lipstick and a pinch of rouge. then she applied cold cream. now it was the boys turn. Point system for this "event" was 10 points for successful application of just one type of makeup, 5 points for complete removal, and minus 2 points for either application of too much makeup or incomplete removal. amazingly, Connie was the champ. He got it right, first time. so now the cumulative scores were connie in the lead by 5 1/2 points. Fortunately,May pulled up into the double digits for once. and chelsea was at the bottom of the list for always making one tiny mistake. By the time Chelsea actually got it right, the other boys were half-way through their next event, play-acting.each boy was given a feminine outfit and told to fill the role. Connie was a secretary, Chelsea had to play the part of a swimsuit model, and May was a 1950's housewife. Using cubix's hologram creator the living room was transformed into three separate zones. work zone, pool zone, and kitchen zone. Also in this holographic exercise were spectral images of real secretaries and models, and a tv image of june cleaver. 15 points for following the motions perfectly, 5 points off for tripping in heels or not toweling off. Connie was again in the lead with 80 points followed by May and chelsea tied for second with 60. they moved on to the final event about color-coordination. this was played out like a game show. each boy was asked just one question. They just had to get it right and sit down. the questions were long so i won't bore you. suffice to say, incredibly so. that May got to choose what they would eat for first lunch. As they dined on lobster, abby had the boys eat like girls. this meant sitting up straight, not slouched over the food, shoveling it down their throats. again they had to clean their clothes. yet Abby suggest thy go for a fly around the store, partly to get more clothes and to goof off. four girls left the dollhouse wearing cheerleading outfits. they flew around for quite some time, finally landing at a 3-D board game of chutes and ladders which they played until second lunch at 3 PM.

far off, in another galaxy, A machine was booted up. this was the probability spinner. Using this machine, the controller could affect any changes on earth he wanted just by feeding a card into the data input slot. what the aliens saw was a floating card that read "increase time of doll experiment to 1 1/2 months. give them anything they desire. in six weeks we will return them to normal sizes. Now we must tamper with their dream to give them some surprises."
