Daisy gets picked as a volunteer

The show continued much like you would expect, sawing a beautiful assistant in half, mismatching the assistant's head, torso, and legs inside a box, etcetera etcetera. After nearly two hours of laughs and applause, the show was finally winding down to a close. Of course, no one had any idea just how bombastic this little finale would be.

"Well folks, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it's just about time for me to be wrapping up my show. I know, I know, I don't want this night to be over so soon either, but all good things must come to an end. So, as I promised in the beginning of my show, I've saved my absolute best trick for last. But to pull it off, I'm going to need a volunteer from the audience!"

Every hand in the tent shot up, with people shouting over one another to catch her attention and be the lucky one. This was all a farce of course, as Elligee had decided on her lovely assistant right at the start of her show. She let her hand drift across the raving crowd, before finally settling on one particular lone blonde girl at the back.

"You, the little miss in the white dress near the entrance." As she anticipated, her choice caused a bit of jeering since everyone wanted to be chosen. "Alright, settle down everyone, there's no need to be rude. In fact, let's all give a big round of applause for her!"

Nervously scurrying up the aisle and onto the stage, Daisy meekly shook the hand of the larger-than-life magician. "It's nice to meet you, Miss Elligee."

"Ooh, Miss Elligee? I like the sound of that." She responded. "But please, we're all friends here there's no need to be so formal. What's your name?"

"Daisy Dew."

Finally breaking off the handshake, Elligee gestured to someone behind the curtains. "Alright, and tell us, how old are you, Daisy?"

"Uh, nineteen..." Daisy answered, watching the lovely assistant, who was just the woman from the stand out front but in a short dress and heels, roll out a bellhop cart. "Why?"

"Just checking." With that slightly alarming response, she kept things moving so there wasn't a chance to question it further. "Daisy, be a dear and take off your sandals, would you?"

Despite her apprehensions, she still diligently followed instructions and stepped out of her footwear. "Why do I need to be barefoot?"

"Because I don't want you tracking dirt onto my nice cart." She answered, gesturing to the bellhop right behind them. "Please, step onto it so we can begin."

"Um, what exactly am I supposed to do?" Still blindly following orders, she stepped up into her designated position.

"Nothing at all! Just be your pretty self and I'll take care of the rest!" With a wink Elligee spun around to face the intrigued audience. "Now ladies and gentlemen, what shall I do? Shall I make this beautiful girl here disappear?"

She gave the crowd a few seconds to voice their opinion, earning a slightly disinterested grumbling. "Yeah, you're right, that's too simple for a finale, plus I've already done that with myself." She snapped her fingers. "I've got it, I'll just make her clothes disappear instead!"

"W-Wait! Did you say-?"

With that dreadful proclamation, the female mage took hold of a green sheet from the assistant and draped it over the cart, silencing the girl within. Daisy could hear muffled voices, but couldn't make out what Elligee was saying to the audience, which was rather strange. The cover was little more than a bedsheet, so it couldn't have been that soundproof. Not to mention there was no trap door and the assistant didn't try and sneak her out through the back.

Just as suddenly as it had been placed, the sheet was yanked away with a shout from Elligee. "Reintroducing Daisy Dew!"

The crowd erupted with applause and laughter, and the star of the show was left utterly befuddled as to why. "Did something happen that I missed? I didn't disappear."

"Don't you remember?" Elligee asked as her lips curled into a cruel smile. "I wasn't making you disappear."

Eyes widening, Daisy looked down at herself and released a lovely scream before quickly looking back up at the crowd, immediately screaming a second time. She was naked! Her small breasts and lightly trimmed blonde bush dramatically revealed for everyone to see! Her cheeks flushed bright red and she scrambled to cover herself, folding an arm across her chest and swiping her trusty sunhat down between her legs.

Elligee snickered and spoke to the assistant. "I completely forgot about that hat."
