Testing on Daphne.

Velma was in luck, when she made it to the motel. As was the usual case, the place didn’t allow pets, so Shaggy and Scooby went to sleep in the back of the Mystery Machine. Fred had a room all to himself, though as always he tried to talk Daphne in to joining him. Velma and Daphne had a room with two twin beds, and by the time Velma got to there door Daphne was dressed for bed.

She wore her usual lavender pajamas, soft with short sleeves and a plunging v neckline. Her hair was still wet and flowing free, as she brushed it in-front of the mirror in the bathroom. She smiled at Velma from the bathroom as she entered and locked the door behind her.

Velma stood for a moment, slowing her excited heart beat, and controlling her breathing. She had to approach this from a place of calm so as to keep her prey from trying to escape. She slowly walked to the untouched bed taking a precarious seat on the end. She waited patiently until Daphne finally left the bathroom.

Walking across the room and to her own bed, she smiled at Velma. Wrinkling her nose as she spoke. “I hope you had some fun in town. I hate napping in the van, but I was exhausted after dealing with that creepy clown.”

Velma held back a predatory grin, as she set her plan in motion. Picking up her left foot to remove her shoe, she let the coin drop from her hand and dangle innocuously. “I stopped in to a local book store a found a fascinating book on hypnosis. I guess I was inspired by the case.”

Daphne stood and rolled her eyes at Velma’s story. Looking at her friend she had a quip ready only to stop abruptly, noticing the faint shimmer from the coin. “Velma, where did..” Her voice trailed off as she lost the ability to think for herself once more.

“It’s funny.” Velma continues speaking as if nothing was abnormal, though her voice took on a more sultry tone. As she removed her shoe with one hand the coin began to sway. “That something so small and simple could have such a strong effect on you Daphne.”

Daphne’s eyes were locked on the swinging coin. She didn’t register the words her friend spoke on a conscious level. Her conscious mind was focused entirely on the glitter of the coin. Her subconscious mind however was absorbing her friends words even more deeply that the commands from the Ghost Clown.

Velma stood and made the coin and is swinging the undivided focus of Daphne. “Your conscious mind with focus all of its energy and attention on this coin, nothing else exists. You subconscious mind however will absorb everything I tell you and accept all of it as the truth. Anything that I tell you that contradicts your past will simply override your past and become your new truth.”

Daphne faintly nodded her head, as her glazed over eyes remained locked on the coin. She stood stock still, and awaited her friends commands.

“Good girl.” Responds Velma her smile growing. “Now where do we begin?”
