"Then it will be a pleasure, Hitomi — may I call you Hitomi — for us that you are working here. You are very important part of the company and I am happy to know you will be with us for many years."
"Thank you, senpai." It was strange to be calling the company president 'senpai' and stranger for a new employee to call him senpai. 'Senpai' was well and good for the employees senior to her and her immediate boss, but not the company president. While all the other women Hitomi had met at the company did, they were all here longer then her. However, the man had insisted that she, Hitomi Kawachi, do so and while being informal was impolite, not obeying a request from the boss was even ruder. "I'm a happy to be able to work here and very happy that you were willing to offer me a position."
"Then we are both happy at the result. I expect good things from you." Yuichi Tanaka made it hard for the young woman to refuse. The president of Tanaka Management looked a couple years older then her, and was good looking guy who looked like a born leader in the expensive suit he wore. The dazzling smile and personality also eased her piece of mind. The company president may not act like a company president but Yuichi-senpai was easy to get use to.
Hitomi herself was just out of university, where one of her instructors had directed her to Tanaka Management. She was tall for a Japanese and almost average height as a Western woman. Long dark hair and refined features made her a classic Japanese beauty. Today the hair was tied in a business like braid and a little makeup made her beauty stand out more. Even the dark blue business outfit (white shirt/blouse, business jacket and a skirt that ended at knee level.) could not hide the fit and shapely physique under it. Especially the legs which showed below the skirt and above the business heels. Hitomi was a striking woman, whose intelligence and abilities got her top marks at the university and employment with a very demanding company.
"As you know, this company provides services for growing companies who don't have the money or people to have their own staff to manage the little details. Payroll, benefits, rents, routine things like that. Because they need it and can't do it themselves, they hire us to provide it for a fee. I hope we do a good job because a lot of the companies have keep their contracts with us even after they grown big enough to do everything themselves." Tanaka waved at the wall of photos. Many of them showed him or someone from Tanaka Management with some Japan's most successfully companies. "That's why we want only the best to work here, because our clients expect us to provide the best."
"Yes, senpai. And I very grateful that I was good enough for this company." Hitomi was still very anxious but she felt a little proud to that she could work in a company like this.
"However, because we provide services for other companies, our schedule is very strange. We have to work even when they aren't. That is why we are happy you can work over Golden Week."
Hitomi could only nod.
"I wish I didn't have to ask you to work during Golden Week. You should enjoy the time with your family or boyfriend and doing something other then work. But our clients want to have their work done by us even during holidays."
"So ka." Hitomi smiled nervously. "If it will make it better, senpai, I have to admit that I have boyfriend or close family that will be disappointed by me not being with them for Golden Week." Hitomi was only lying a little. Her family was disappointed that she would not be home for Golden Week, but it would keep them from hounding her over her lack of a husband. She had struggle all her life to break free of traditional roles her family wanted and the last thing she wanted right now was to be tied down when she was about achieve professional success.
"Oh? Its still taking you away from the holiday. I'll make sure you get a suitable bonus for doing so," Tanaka smiled apologetically though inside he was happy at how accurate his information was. "Than I better let you get back to your work as soon as possible. The sooner we can finish this work the sooner we can all go enjoy the rest of Golden Week." Again surprising Hitomi, the man stood first and give a small bow to the junior employee.
Standing up quickly and returning a deeper bow, Hitomi almost fell over. Her heels was a new pair and she should have worn them more before coming to work today. However, when Natsumi had taken her shopping the other day, she fell in love with the pumps at first sight and just had to get them. After all, it had been...
Years of good manners and politeness helped her act automatically even as her mind wondered about the last point. "How much did I pay for the heels?" Hitomi thought. "For that matter, what exactly did I do the other day?" The last thing she remembered clearly about shopping that day was Natsumi going on about how it was a great idea to shop. The rest of day until she got back to her apartment, was a complete blur. There were bits and pieces but she could not remember how everything actually happened.
Then suddenly she relaxed as a thought came in: "I can ask Natsumi about it later. She always knows about that. Right now it is not important." With that, the thought disappeared from her mind. By that time she had gotten near to the closed office door.
"Oh, and Hitomi?" Tanaka-senpai asked as she was about to open the door. As she turn to look at him, he smiled and said her command phrase.
For a moment there was no change, with Hitomi remaining half turned to face her boss and one hand on the doorknob. Then Yuichi stood up and walked toward the attractive young woman until he put his hand over her holding the knob. Hitomi did not move at all, but stood with same pose and same expression. Only her steady breathing showed she was not a statue.
Taking her hand and pushing it to her side, Yuichi locked the door and turn to his newest subject. He was pleased that the initial hypnotic conditioning had gone so well. Hitomi's personal information fit the profile he sought completely and he looked forward to the rewards of 'acquiring' her ever since Natsumi had confirmed what Sachiko had found.
Walking in front of the motionless Hitomi, Yuichi looked into her eyes and commanded. "Report, subject!"
The change in the young woman was immediate. Hitomi's face acquire a bland, neutral look, and her body snapped to military attention with legs together, arms at her side and her back completely straight, pressing her properly size chest against her shirt/blouse and jacket. Her voice was void of all emotion and sounded like a robot. "Hitomi 053 reporting. Initial stage complete. Absolute obedience and loyalty to my master and dono confirmed. Waiting for orders."
Yuichi nodded in approval and looked at his new acquisition. "You've done well, subject. Dono is pleased. It is time to complete your programming." Turning to the other door to his private restroom, he snapped, "Enter now."
Two women emerged from the restroom where they had been waiting motionless, in the usual outfits worn by all women of Tanaka Management. Natsumi Wakaba was slightly shorter then Hitomi, with a little darker complexion then the other woman. Her dark tresses had blonde highlights as they ran down to the middle of her back. Her measurements were small compared to Western women but fitted her athletic physique well. As a veteran employee of Tanaka Management and slightly older to Hitomi, Natsumi had been the ideal person to take the younger woman under her wings and guide her around her first days at the firm. Natsumi, in fact, had been the woman who recommended Hitomi to Tanaka Management and gotten her an interview with the company after running into her at the university by accident, which was also Natsumi's alma mater.
In fact, Yuichi had ordered Natsumi to meet Hitomi, get detailed information about her, become her friend, and direct her to his company. There was nothing accidental about that since Sachiko had first seen Hitomi on a chance visit to the university.
Standing next to Natsumi, Sachiko was slightly taller than her companion and was more like Hitomi. Her larger chest was more prominent and the jacket strained a little over it, while also telling close bystanders that she was not wearing a bra underneath. Unlike Natsumi, the idol/model was not employed at Tanaka Management but none of the women working that company would object to her presence. If Yuichi wanted it than that was how it worked. They, like all the women who worked for the companies Yuichi owned and elsewhere, were entirely conditioned and Controlled to accept anything he did as natural. That applied to both the women who were active and the women who posed frozen by the Immobilizer as display mannequins and statues among his holdings.
After all, it was what Yuichi wanted from the beginning.
Yuichi had combined his three goals in life with two things he was very good at. He found himself very good at doing something other people would pay a lot of money for and very good at working with electronics. The two worked together to help him with his three goals. They were:
All those ideas and desires and skills had led him to this, making his dreams come true beyond even what he could believe. He had a business empire that was small enough to hide from the curious and made him a lot of money. The money allowed him to gather attractive women in large numbers. His knowledge of hypnosis allowed him to take control of the women for his harem and help his business success. The women of his harem operated his businesses and searched for and recruited new additions to his collection. Hypnotizing new women completely with help from the special electronics he had invented and only he owned. And then the special electronics also allow him to create living mannequins and statues from his collection of attractive women, which he used in some of his businesses that was helped by the hypnosis he used.
Most people who came into his front companies had a light hypnotic suggestion. It made them more agreeable and accepting to his companies' activities and less likely to be surprised or be troubled by those activities. This was to keep it easy and simple since he could get the same result simply by talking while using the right words without hypnosis. Hypnosis just made it easier.
The more attractive women Yuichi had some interest but either not attractive enough or be more problem taking full control of them they were worth got a stronger hypnotic command. It allow Yuichi to take control of them and to command them to think, believe, or do whatever he wanted, but that was all. Unless he had a reason to use them and with a good excuse to cover what they were doing, Yuichi seldom took total control of them, though it was good to occasionally have a quick fling with a popular model, athlete, or whoever he fancied because he could command them to do so.
Finally were the women he wanted and could disguise the control of them from unwanted eyes. The full treatment included all the other levels of hypnosis and also ran the lives and changed the minds of the women that drew his attention until they were owned by him in all the meanings of the word. That group included Sachiko, Natsumi, and now Hitomi.
"Ladies, I am satisfied with your work on Hitomi here. She is responding well to the initial programming, which pleases your dono." Both ladies smiled in response. "Therefore, we will continue with her full programming as planned at the main store. Her schedule has already been cleared up so there will be no questions as to her absence." Pulling out a small remote control like you use for a DVD player, Yuichi pressed several buttons. Nothing looked like it changed until he pressed Hitomi's body again and found it still and firm. "Good. The Immobilizer is working like it should. That should make her programming work even better." He pressed another button, and softened Hitomi's freeze. She wouldn't had been able to move even outside the trance but the setting allowed her to be reposed. Finally Yuichi pressed another button and restored Hitomi to her original state. Her trance, of course, remained in effect and she remained posed as she had been when Yuichi triggered the trance. "You may take to her the store now for her programming."
"Yes, dono." The two women echoed each other. While Sachiko opened the hidden door leading to Yuichi's private elevator, Natsumi took her cell phone from her pocket and sent a short text message. The message went to everyone in the office and also needed to construct an alibi for Hitomi's absence for the immediate future, alerting them to begin doing so. All the women who got the message were already programmed with what they had to do and the message just told them to start it.
After finishing that job and putting away her cell phone, Natsumi walked up to the still-standing Hitomi and calmly spoke to the entranced girl. "Hitomi 053, dono commands you to follow Natsumi 068 and Sachiko 041. Until commanded otherwise, dono commands you to obey our orders completely, absolutely, and immediately. You are to come with us immediately. You will act as if you are awake if outsiders are near and not make them suspect you. Only when you are within dono's property will you act as you are now. Do you understand and obey?"
"I understand and I obey, Natsumi 068." She answered in a monotone voice. Then Hitomi turned gracefully and followed Natsumi to the elevator where Sachiko was waiting. Soon they would be out of the building and heading for Hitomi's real introduction to Yuichi's plan.
* * *
Driving to the store was slow because Tokyo traffic was as bad as any big city in the world in the middle of the week day. But three women rode in a vehicle because while both Sachiko and Natsumi had no trouble dealing with outsiders while in their trances, Hitomi was not yet prepared enough to be trusted with maintaining the illusion. The trance was only strong enough that she could appear normal for short periods of time but anything longer was plain trouble.
Finally the van drove into the underground parking shelter under one of Tokyo's most fashionable department stores. Only the female driver and the three women were present on this trip. Sometimes the van was completely filled with girls going to the store for different reasons, and that was why the driver was another of the girls controlled by Tanaka so less questions was asked. That was also why the garage was closed to everyone else except those allowed.
Saying thanks for the ride, the only words spoken in the van, the three women got out of the van and walked through the door to the store in the garage. Instead of going up into the top basement level they kept going until they reached a special door. It was locked but one look at the hidden camera allowed the girls to be identified; then it opened. Behind the door was another door that stayed closed until the first door was locked again.
"Konnichi-wa, my sisters," the woman standing behind the second door who greeted them was dressed a little bit differently. Over the skirt and heels she wore the blouse and smock of a store salesgirl. When she had to go into the sales floor no customer would give her a second look since she looked like any other of the Controlled employees of the store. "Dono has already given orders on what to do."
"Yes; Hitomi 053 is to receive her main programming starting immediately," Natsumi spoke as calmly as the other girl. "Hitomi 053 will transfer control from Natsumi 068 and Sachiko 041 to Kasumi 070. Confirm."
"Hitomi 053 is now Controlled by Kasumi 070." Both Hitomi and the new girl said at the same time. Turning to Hitomi, Kasumi nodded to a far door. "Hitomi 053 will go to the next room and follow instructions given there. Go now."
"I obey." All three women watched as Hitomi obeyed her orders like a robot and went into the room beyond the door. There was no reaction at all from them. Once Hitomi had disappeared from sight, Kasumi turned the remaining newcomers.
"Dono has given me new instructions for you. Override code B05465356H."
"Override code B05465356H confirmed. Awaiting new orders." Both girls replied.
"Report to Preparation Room 1 and change garments there. Sachiko 041 will prepare herself for long-term display. Natsumi 068 will prepare for a short term display until Hitomi 053 has finished her main programming. More orders will follow from dono at that time. Confirm."
"Confirm." Both women replied and without another word walked to another one of the doors in the hall. Behind them, Kasumi returned to standing motionlessly facing the door to the parking garage.
While the other two were getting ready, Hitomi had already stripped her clothes and put them neatly on the hangar and shelf as she was told. Then she passed through another door and found herself standing nude, save for the ring with the Immobilizer, inside in front of a LCD screen. A voice from a hidden speaker commanded her to put on the headphones that sat next to the screen, watch the screen and follow its commands.
In the other room both women who came with Hitomi would know what the young lady was doing since they had done it to. Both Sachiko and Natsumi silently stripped and entered a separate shower to clean off. After washing their hair they covered it and used the special soap for the rest of their bodies below their heads which removed all hair from them. There wasn't much hair there anyway since both had been hypnotically commanded to keep their body hair free but they followed their orders. The whole thing was done quickly with them finishing their showers only minutes after starting.
After drying and doing their hair, both women went to the dressing room where their outfits were waiting. Appearing nude, Sachiko's large breasts seemed larger then while wearing the business outfit and Natsumi looked exactly like she had appeared before. A silver low-cut one-piece swimsuit with a sharp vee running from the neck of the suit to just below her belly button and showing a lot of her cleavage, with matching silver pair of heels was Sachiko's outfit. Letting her hair run down her back, Sachiko next put on her make-up and finished with another Immobilizer unit behind her ear to go with the one she had covering her mound and going inside her that would hide the fact she was a real woman when they worked.
Natsumi got tight jeans which covered her legs like a second skin and required her to put on a pair of pantyhose just to get the jeans on. Black-heeled leather boots stretched her legs even more. A multi colored silk blouse with a French cut bra and panty set emphasized her chest as much as possible and the high-cut sleeves showed her toned arms. With expensive earrings, more make-up then Sachiko and fixing her hair to frame her face and run down her back, Natsumi looked every bit the stylish young woman taking the day trip into the shopping district. Like Sachiko, Natsumi wore two Immobilizer units, as a ring and a earpiece.
After finishing dressing, both women left the dressing room and walked through the basement of the store. They past other Controlled women coming and going and doing, some employees of the store, some models and some women who came have their programming renewed or Immobilizers replaced. A long cart holding several frozen models wearing swimsuits was rolled by them while several other girls wearing swimsuits headed the same way as Sachiko. Their destination was a room behind the sales floor where more employees and models moved in and out from the sales floor to private parts of the store. Among the boxes and carts and equipment was a long flat cart where several models in swim wear were already waiting, posed and frozen on it, ready to be put out on the floor for the special swim wear display.
One Controlled woman was the visual merchandiser in charge for the swim wear display. They normally put the displays up with the models at night but getting the models ready before the store closed made things go faster. She nodded when Sachiko and Natsumi arrived. "Sachiko 041 will assume Swimsuit Pose 199 for long term display here."
"Understood." Sachiko replied. "I will obey immediately." Without hesitation, Sachiko took a firm stance, with legs straight, right leg in front of her left like a walking pose. Giving a slight bend to her back and improving her upper chest even more, Sachiko raised her arms back up beyond her head, bent her head back, closed her eyes and smiled. She held her pose for a moment, long enough for the VM to use her remote to suspend her in that pose.
Leaving Sachiko immobilized but poseable the VM adjusted her arms a bit, widened her smile and made small changes to the pose. Then she used the remote to make Sachiko completely frozen into a glamorous and arousing living mannequin. Finishing with a little make-up and some spray to make the frozen girl's skin gleam like plastic, the VM left her to dry before she and Natsumi help load her onto the cart with the other frozen model.
If Natsumi had been more conscious, she would recognize another of the frozen girls on the cart with Sachiko as her college classmate, Arisa. Once a volleyball player, Arisa was posed standing on her toes, legs apart, one in front of the other, with one hand holding a invisible ball and the other ready to hit it in a serve. Her dark blue and green two-piece athletic swimsuit was perfect for the toned body of the athlete she was. Arisa had been the person who recruited Natsumi for Tanaka Management and the rest was history. She was currently serving as a living mannequin at the store with the excuse for her absence being she was on long-term oversea assignment for the office.
The VM pulled open a plastic sheet and push the cart behind it. Next to the cart with Sachiko and Arisa were several other carts with frozen girls in swim wear in different poses, several sitting or lying on the cart with other frozen models straddling and standing over them in their poses. There was the cart Natsumi had seen being pushed here, with girls she would have recognized as being new recruits to the Controlled. But that was only if she was able to recognize them. In her current state she did not.
After she push the cart behind the sheet and closed it again, the VM turned to Natsumi and spoke. "Natsumi 068 will go to short-term display and immobilized after posing."
"Understood." With that Natsumi walked away leaving both her friend and her fellow arrival standing like the mannequins they had become.
She was going to a hallway near the offices away from the floor. Few people outside the store would visit here so it was a good place for a short freeze. Since Natsumi was ready to walk out into the store at a moment's notice it was perfect for her. Since only a few spots along the sides of the hall were taken, Natsumi took the first space she came to, next to a young-looking girl dressed in sailor-fuku school uniform, her long black hair braided and running down her back. Natsumi pressed a hidden button in the wall, turned facing the hall, took a pose like she was standing at attention with her arms straight at her sides with legs together and waited. A moment later her Immobilizer activated, freezing her solidly in place.
In the basement below, Hitomi was going through her programming with her eyes watching the screen and headphones covering her ears. Both were sending instructions to her, altering her thinking and her mind and making her into a fully-Controlled woman. During the programming she was ordered into different poses, with the Immobilizer ring sometimes freezing her into stillness, sometimes being completely frozen. Some of the poses, like bending backwards until she held herself by her hands and feet on the floor, tested her flexibility beyond what she could do when awake. It was just part of the programming to get her accept being frozen in different poses and to enjoy and lust for it. It would be a while but when programming was finished Hitomi would become a fully-Controlled servant of Yuichi Tanaka willing and able to do anything including recruiting other girls and women into his control.
* * *
The next display would never worked if Yuichi had not been very lucky one day. Keiko and Yuko were identical twins that Yuichi had taken control of out of pure luck when one of his Controlled working at a modeling firm had seen them come in. With their slender physiques and builds, Yuichi had taken the chance to use them for a special display showing two sides of Rei Ayanami from Neon Genesis Evangelion. Keiko (Or was it Yuko?) was dressed in Rei's white pilot bodysuit while Yuko (Or was it Keiko?) was dressed in Rei's school uniform. Both sported the distinctive blue hair Rei had and the expressionless face she was known for. Being identical twins, they were motionless mirrors of each other and of the character.
"Keiko 101 and Yuko 101. You're perfect for your new role. I never placed real twins into my collection before you, but you have made me want to do so again. Its a lot of work, but I think it is worth it to have two people who already look identical than to try and make two people look identical. Until I get another set of twins you are unique in my collection. Maybe I'll reward you some day."
In the next alcove Eri 091 had been dressed exactly like Chai Xianghua from Soul Calibur 4. Her outfit consisted of white, light blue and purple colors including the low cut midriff-baring top she wore that showed her firm abs and belly button. Over that was a loose jacket that also revealed her stomach. Stockings that went up to under her knees (With a blue ribbon tied with a bow near the top of each stocking) and blue traditional Chinese shoes revealed most of her legs with her high cut short pants adorned with light blue accessories. Blue wrappings covered her forearms to the middle finger of each hand and a blue ribbon with a butterfly clasp encircled her neck. Two short braids framing her face on each side trailed down from the crown of her head and a blue/white flower was placed in her hair on the right side. A long sword was held in her right hand as she faced to her left in a heroic ready pose as if an enemy was coming from that direction. A look of concentration and calm had been molded on her lovely face.
"You maybe my newest display figure but you are one of my favorites, Eri. I will get many years of enjoyment from you." Taking out his remote, he pressed the button to allow Eri some flexibility to be reposed, gave the figure a small smile on her face, and set her suspension to the max. In moments, Eri was rock-solid again.
The last three figures were not recreations from any anime or video games. They had been put into alcoves because it was good hiding place for them from the rest of the condo owners and guests. Rina 064 was dressed in the regular French maid's outfit and was perfect for doing chores around the condo when Yuichi did not want to do them. The tight-fitting black and white outfit looked good on her slim figure, and she was posed facing straight ahead, both feet together with her arms crossed across her chest and her hands holding each other as if she was waiting for the next command from Yuichi. She actually was, something that Yuichi was very happy about. Even under the white lace and black fabric of the uniform her wonderful figure could be seen.
Next was Maya 054. She was supposed to look like a kunoichi or female ninja, but she was dressed very differently from how TV and movies normally show a kunoichi. Maya's firm, tight, and hard athletic body was dressed in a black skin-tight latex and nylon bodysuit that covered her shape like a second skin. While it was easy to move in, the suit's material completely covered her body so tightly that anyone could see she did not wear any underwear underneath while traces of the nipples on her small breasts and her nether cleft were visible under bright light. Lightweight black nylon boots and gloves covered her feet and hands. Her black hair had been tied up into a single long braid and a black hood, with dark goggles, was covering her head. Her face, the only part of her skin not covered right now, looked forward without any expression whatever. Maya was posed standing at attention and ready to pounce. With her head covering fully on, she would have looked like a black statue and nearly invisible in the dark. At her slim waist and on her back were several knives and various tools for sneaking around. Those were very real and very useable because Yuichi had certain uses for Maya and her high tech kunoichi 'sisters' that went beyond their mere display. The women he dressed like classic kunoichi were for his own enjoyment. Girls like Maya had more uses then that.
"Ready for action as always. Excellent. I have orders for you later, so you stay that way until I call you." Unlike the other women, Maya was simply standing there motionless because of her hypnotic commands and conditioning. Because she had to be ready to move immediately, she was not completely frozen with the Immobilizer or even partially immobilized but poseable. Despite looking like another figure on display, she could spring into action in a split-second. Had she been conscious, Maya would not have recognized herself from the quiet, introverted but athletic girl one of Yuichi's Controlled had saw four years before.
The last woman in the alcoves was posed standing at attention, wearing a simple green bikini set and white heels. She was more like Maya's body type then Rina's but the bikini top enhanced her chest. Sayuri 121 was a recent recruit to the Controlled and Yuichi was still trying decide which outfit he wanted her to be displayed in. There was no hurry to make a decision, since all her friends and family thought she was on European tour after graduating from college. Yuichi and some of his Controlled knew different but they were not going to say anything. Sayuri in her present max-frozen condition could not say anything.
"What should I do with you, my pretty? Maybe I should make you another kunoichi, huh? You've got the body for that but your body is also good for so many other roles too. It'll be tough to decide what to do with you, Sayuri. But it's not like I'm in a hurry here; you cannot get impatient anyway! So I have all the time I need to decide what and how you are going appear." Sayuri remained a statue.
Finishing his inspection, Yuichi turned back Rina 064 and Maya 054. Releasing Rina from her Immobilization with his remote, he ordered the maid to prepare his late dinner and drink, a order that Rina accepted immediately without hesitation. Watching his maid leave to carry out his order, Yuichi then turned to Maya. "Come with me Maya. I got some things I want you to do tonight."
Silently, without question, the black-covered woman stepped from the alcove and followed Yuichi to his study.
* * *
It was impossible to tell time had passed for anyone completely frozen. Natsumi only knew when she was frozen afterward when she woke up and found herself able to move. Her hypnotic commands kept her from realizing it was strange but did give her a quick set of exercises to stretch her muscles and body from being frozen. She did that first when she woke up sometime later after freezing completely in the hallway. The lights was still on and nothing else had changed but she knew automatically that time had passed.* * *
Yuichi heard the new email sound from his PC even as he walked all around the still figure. This part of his condo was set up like a photo studio, with a circle of digital cameras and camcorders allowing him to record a scene from all directions. It allowed him to add to his album of pictures and video of his collection in various poses and scenes. Tonight's subject was Maya. Yuichi had ordered his kunoichi to perform various action poses and hold them, unmoving, while he recorded them for later. While he could simply order Maya or any other girl in his collection to perform the same poses and actions whenever he wanted it was nice to be able to see them anytime he wanted on his laptop, even when he was away from his collection.* * *
In her apartment at the very moment Yuichi said those words, Kiriko heard the sound of her roommate in the shower and moved quickly. Tomoko was another event girl and race queen but she worked for a different company. That was one of the things that made Natsumi decide to go after Kiriko, who immediately reported her roommate as being suitable for accepting hypnotic commands. So when she got her new programming, Kiriko was told to do exactly that.* * *
"So many to choose from and so hard to decide which ones I like most. They all should be mine. Maybe I should make them all mine." Yuichi said to the immobile maid Rina as he looked at the photos from the memory card Natsumi received from Kiriko. The pictures of her friends, fellow event girls and race queens were beyond Yuichi's imagination. He had been right about getting a racequeen into his collection and Natsumi had been right going after Kiriko. The subjects that Kiriko had access to were well worth the extra effort. In fact, Yuichi wondered why it took so long for him to really go after many race queens for his collection. He had already gotten a few in his collection of Controlled before by chance, but this is the first time he really went for them. If one racequeen or event girl had access to this many others, the connections for a group of them was beyond imagining.
"You're not going to be alone much longer, Rina," Yuichi laughed as he put the empty glass on the tray the girl held stiffly. Dressed as a French maid, she had a short black skirt over slim legs covered in fishnet stockings, with a silk white apron tied over her short skirt. The black top was fringed with white lace, her chest and cleavage enhanced by the body shaper bra she had on underneath. She also wore a little white frill in her hair, and matching lace accents at her wrists. The black pumps made her look taller than she was and stretched her legs out very nicely. Her outfit was finished with a large bow tied on the back of her outfit. Standing there at attention with her hands holding the the serving tray, her feet held together, and her eyes looking downward she was the picture of a obedient maid waiting for her dono's word. He turned the control that unfroze her from that pose. "I'm done for now. Go clean-up."
"Hai, dono," Rina said emotionlessly and turn to walk off. As she did, Yuichi ran his hand over her butt. Rina was a fine maid but she could also become a good swimsuit figure, too. That's something he had to consider for the future.
Yuichi looked back at the pictures. There were some girls Kiriko knew that were far better looking than others. He started writing down the names of the selected girls in question. He would have to give a light hypnotic command to all of them, even if he picked the best ones first. You never know when one of them could be useful; having them all under a light trance that didn't do anything else except give Yuichi a opening to them never hurt. It had worked in the past and Yuichi always remembered that.
Yuichi was still taking down names when he heard the door open. Behind him Maya came in and knelt on the floor with both knees on the floor, back and head straight up with her hands held behind her head, her mask lifted off reveal her face. "I've returned, dono; now what do you wish?"
"Your mission was successful." Yuichi knew it would be because Maya had reported it earlier. Besides his kunoichi would not return before completing a mission per his explicit commands. They knew nothing else.
"Yes, dono. We found the information you were interested in," Maya replied, looking down as she lifted her hands forward. In her palm was a memory card. "We also got the information from their computer on the other team members and recruits."
"Good! That is very well. You will be rewarded later. For now, return to the gallery and stand by."
"Yes, dono." Without a noise, Maya stood up and was going to leave the room. Before she did, Yuichi stopped her with a command.
"Stop, Maya." Like a black-covered robot, she did immediately and completely. "How was Sayuri 121? Did she do well?"
"Yes, dono. Sayuri 121 performed well tonight."
"Good. Perhaps she might be a good partner with you. It would make things interesting." Yuichi imagined the possibilities with the two kunoichi together. The old Maya would never do some of things he would order her to do. The new Maya, right now, was unable to object or even try to resist. "Good. You may go."
Yuichi looked at the clock. He really needed sleep because there was a lot of work left to do the next day before he could enjoy his Golden Week. Plugging the memory card into his PC, he started to look at the information again. So many names. So many beautiful faces and figures.

Natsumi smiled as she ran one hand over Hitomi's face. After coming back to the store, she had helped getting the new living displays set-up for the next day. Taking a break, she decided to check on the progress of her 'friend' who should be deep in her programming now.
Hitomi's nude body was now covered with sweat and smelled of her arousal. She was posed in the obedience stance now, standing up straight with her arms up and hands behind her neck. That, along with her straight back, made her chest look better. Her eyes were wide, staring into the screen as the video and audio she heard continued her programming. Even as Natsumi watched, Hitomi changed from obedience mode to a pose arching her back until she reached with arms back to the floor and held her chest up in a arch high up, balancing on just her hands and feet. Even without looking at the screen, Hitomi's programming continued. As far as Hitomi could see, it was going on without any problems or delays. That made Natsumi happy, as far as she could be happy in her hypnotic state. Hitomi's programming would be easily finished before the end of the week. There was some more work to be done on her before she was wholly Controlled but she could have it wait until they could send her to one of the complexes outside of the city.
Natsumi left the room, satisfied with Hitomi's programming. Walking back up to the sales floor of the store, the Controlled watched the living mannequins being changed in and out.
The carts carrying the living mannequins posed as swim wear models were brought to the places on the sales floor where they would be displayed. These girls mostly replaced the living mannequins displaying spring fashions, though some of the women wearing clothes that could also be popular in summer were left where they were or just moved aside slightly. Most of the spring wear models were being taken off the floor. Some would go back to the complexes outside of Tokyo or go back to work at the companies owned by Dono Yuichi. Others would be sent on their way to resume their lives like nothing had ever happened. And nobody would ever know anything unusual had ever happened to them.
A team of VMs would move a cart of swim wear models to where they were supposed to go. The moving women would unload the frozen women from the cart and put them to one side. Then they loaded the frozen models in spring wear onto the cart, and put the swim wear models in their places. Most of the time, some sort of adjustment, from changing the tilt of the mannequin's head or position of her arms, to entirely new poses, were needed. The VMs would use the remotes they carried to soften the frozen poses of the swim wear models and change them to fit the needs of their displays. After they were in the right place and poses, the VMs would freeze them again and spray their bodies a little with a waxy makeup until they shined like real plastic mannequins that only looked a lot like real women. The VMs then pushed the cart full of unused spring wear models into the back and repeated the exchange with another cart of swim wear models.
Noises of a rapid discussion broke the quiet from one part of the floor that got Natsumi's attention. One team of VMs had found that the new swim wear display they were setting up needed two more swim wear models than they had on the cart. The Controlled working as supervisors for the VMs came over to look at the problem. Natsumi could see dono's wisdom in having Controlled women be able to make decisions on their own. Quickly the supervisors decided to move one swimsuit model from another display to make up for part of the need. However, the display needed another mannequin and the supervisors decided they should leave the other swim wear models where they were. So they chose to make a swim wear model from one of the VMs working on the sales floor.
The VM selected was younger then Natsumi. She had cut her hair short and had a curvier figure then Natsumi, with the long legs of a model that were not toned like an athlete's but still sexy. Without questioning the supervisors' decision, the young woman came to where the display was and waited patiently while both a swimsuit and pose for her was decided on. The supervisors picked a tiny black and red bikini that left nothing to the imagination from the racks. Then the VM was ordered to strip, which she did like a robot, immediately there on the sales floor without hesitation or question. The smock and stylish clothes of the department store worker were taken and neatly arranged on one of the display tables and her sexy underwear soon followed, leaving her fantastic figure fully on display in the nude, with a flat stomach between awesome breasts and a hairless nether region. Some of the first VM team went to work on their now naked co-worker, who remained unmoving and still as she was arranged and treated like a life-size doll. They took off the make-up she had on, along with any out of place hairs that she had. Then the naked girl put on the bikini while the other VMs made sure it was arranged properly on her body. Before she pulled the bottom part up, a supervisor inserted an Immobilizer unit shaped like a vibrator into her vagina. In case her earpiece fell off, this Immobilizer would work as a backup. It also protected the model and concealed her sex, meaning that nobody would believe she wasn't a very realistic and very sexy mannequin when she froze. Even in her passive state, the girl reacted with a little gasp of pleasure to the Immobilizer being inserted into her but otherwise remained completely under control.
When she finished dressing in the bikini, the supervisors posed her like the lifelike mannequin she was going to be. They picked a stance for her, pretending she was facing into the wind. She held both hands up running them through her hair on both sides of her head. Her eyes were bright and her mouth and face were arranged like she was drawing a deep breath looking at a beautiful sunrise or sunset at the beach. The VMs arranged her to stand raised slightly on her tiptoes, her left leg a little ahead of the right one. Very little makeup was used, only enough to make her eyes and features better and then she was frozen completely with the Immobilizer. Then the new mannequin figure was put into the display with the other swim wear models by the other VMs as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
A light outer shirt was draped over her rigid pose; a few thin, almost invisible, wires was used to hold up her shirt like it was blowing in the wind. The ex-VM's hair was styled like it was facing into the wind and another VM added a pair of sunglasses into the hair on top of her head. Finally the VM put back the earpiece her associate had been wearing before becoming the newest swim wear living mannequin on the still girl. The VM who had been recently working with the frozen and posed swim wear models now joined them in the display.
"You look good, Michiru. This is an emergency, so when we get a proper swimsuit model available, you will go back to being a VM," A supervisor said to the frozen girl. "But you look so good there as a mannequin that you could stay a model for the rest of your job here! You might even change positions into modeling - you look even better than being just a VM!" The frozen ex-VM could not react of course, but the supervisor's words would remain close to her memory when she was reanimated.
Around the sales floor, Natsumi could see work going on in the rest of the displays. Sachiko and Arisu were frozen and placed in another part of the store in adjacent displays. Arisu was posed in a sports-themed beachwear set and Sachiko was standing with other models wearing the racier swimsuits. Everything seem to be going fine, and Natsumi could not be happier for her dono for it.

Very early next morning, Yuichi was sipping his morning tea when a call came into his cell phone. There was still a little time until he finished up and left for work and he knew what the call was when he picked it up.
"Five minutes, dono," The woman's voice said over the phone without any emotion.
"Good. Rina will open the door for your work." Yuichi closed the cell phone. His last day in the city before heading for his own vacation meant that he was not going to be back in the condo for a long time. So anything he wanted to take with him would have to be taken now. "I could always send one of my girls to get things, but what fun would that be?" Yuichi thought as he watched Rina finish cleaning and straightening the condo. She would be heading to the main residence out of town, too.
Several minutes later the bell rang from the door to the parking garage way down in the basement of the building. Yuichi pressed the button to open the gate and let the truck come into the garage, then another button to let the truck enter his private parking space through the doors only he could open. It was strange for a parking space, completely separate from the rest of the parking garage behind its own door, but Yuichi wanted the privacy and since he owned the building, nobody could say no to him.
Down below, the truck stopped in Yuichi's private parking space. The driver waited for the door to close so nobody could even get a peek of what was going on inside. She then got out of the truck and walked to the back. First she made sure the door was locked and totally sealed from the rest of the garage. Then she went to the back of the truck and opened it.
The inside of the cargo area was totally different from the outside of the truck, which looked like any other everyday truck being used for business. It was a little dirty from driving through a city all day and looked like it seen better days with scrapes and dents on the body panels here and there. Inside the back, the space was completely white and spotless, with bright lights illuminating it and a door that completely sealed the space from the outside, not letting anything slip out. It did not look like a back of a regular truck but looked more, and the A/C made it feel more like, a refrigerator truck used to carry food to the markets. The sides, floor and top were padded and built-up to keep the cargo it carried safe. The straps and harnesses running from all surfaces were there to hold its cargo in place. And the kunoichi, like Kaori, strapped to the sides of the space, were to protect the cargo from any other problem.
Like Maya, Kaori was one of Yuichi's kunoichi who did work in the real world. Unlike Maya and some of her "sisters", Kaori was dressed completely in gray. Similar in height to Maya, Kaori had the same toned, fit physique the other woman had, the same type of second-skin type outfit that showed the trace of her nipples and nether regions as well as her sculpted body, along with the same real and deadly tools.
She was standing up straight up like she was at attention, legs together and arms down her sides, head up and completely without expression. Her long black hair was untied and ran down her back. Her eyes was blank and her appearance was the same as the three other kunoichi in the space. They were waiting for orders or triggers to do something. Until they got them, they could stand like that forever. They even stood this way when their Immobilizers were turned off and they were awake so they could be hypnotized. Now they stood at attention while safely held by the straps and harnesses inside the truck as it drove through the city.
The driver put out the truck's loading ramp and climbed inside the compartment. She announced, "We've arrived at dono's location."
"Understood." The four kunoichi said at the same time. The women immediately opened the straps and harnesses holding them inside. Leaving the truck driver to guard the truck from anyone breaking into the private parking garage, the four women went straight past a private door to the hallway with Yuichi's private elevator. They rode the elevator to the condo where Rina had already opened the main door for the four when they got there. Nobody said a word along the way.

Kiriko had never been the earliest girl to arrive at the team meetings, but Natsumi's programming had slowly changed that. She was would appear a little earlier and earlier over the next several meetings so nobody would notice she was changing. Yuichi was patient. Kiriko had a lot to offer, so making people suspicious if she suddenly changed her habits in one day wasn't needed."Oh, I don't think you are fine," Kiriko said very quietly. She looked back and saw that everyone was still concentrated around Shiho, who had put her head on the table by now. But she also noticed that Megumi was starting to show signs of dizziness too. "In fact, you aren't well at all. You should rest and listen to something very relaxing."
"Rest... listen... relaxing..." Yumiko said with a slur. Hiroko couldn't even say that, but just nodded her head slowly. "Rest... relaxing..."
"Yes, very relaxing. So very relaxing; take the time and let yourself relax. You'll get all the sleep you need if you listen to what I've got on tape. It will relax you even more. Just let go. Let go and listen to the words and relax. Then you can rest." Kiriko put one earpiece in both Yumiko's and Hiroko's ears and pressed the play button. "That should get you to relax very quickly and completely. So relaxed that you don't care if you leave your eyes open while you rest without moving. So very relaxed that you look lovely like you always do. Sitting up straight and relaxing. Look normal and rest, deeply; let your mind drift as you find the feeling very restful to you," Kiriko said as the first of the hypnotic commands. The MP3 player had only light inductions and suggestions. It was to get the victims to be more open to more programming, so there wasn't much. It was short which allowed using it in surprise situations like this.
Kiriko looked around and saw everyone still clustered around Shiho, who had put her head down on the table and was muttering. But she could see everyone else in the room besides herself was showing weariness and dizziness. It was time to go on to the next stage. She pulled her cell phone out and texted another message to central.
The Controlled at the computer saw the text message and started another program to increase the preparation. Kiriko, after sending the new message, went to the dressing room and locked the door there from the hallway. She then returned to the main room, while her first two victims were now looking very awake, but their minds were completely asleep and were being given light commands from the MP3s they were listening to.
The vents started adding more gas and the spray bottles in the room turned on and released their inhibition-easing gases into the same room. This time Kiriko started to feel tired herself and made sure to sit near the chair so that when she fell under the gas and passed out she would block the door. Any of the girls trying to escape wouldn't be able to move her body out of the way. Unlike the first effects, Kiriko was not prepared to handle the stronger second effects and locking the door here was too obvious. This was the best thing she could do.
Again a little voice inside her wondered from where she knew that and wanted her to be more concerned about her friends and teammates. But the main part of her mind had been deeply conditioned by Natsumi and it ignored the words of her conscience at the same time she was drugging the other girls.
The gas was filling the room more and more; all the remaining women were being affected by it. The flashing of the lights speeded up while the computer monitors now showed subliminal hypnotic suggestions between flashes along with what they showed before. Shiho was now on the floor in her race queen outfit and her hands were rubbing at her breasts and crotch under her clothes. Her heeled boot-covered legs were rubbing each other. That would have normally gotten attention from the other women but all the remaining girls present had something going on now.
Chie and Ayaka had now long ago stopped their conversation and now were leaning against each other with their faces slack and eyes blank. Kaede was now on the floor as well, rolling back and forth as the hypnotic programming and drugs drove her to extremes of self-stimulation. Megumi had dropped her head on the table and was staring wide-eyed with no expression straight at Kiriko. Kiriko herself felt her body acting out of her control. A little voice said she should be scared but her mind ignored it and went with the flow as the commands starting to come through the computers and the sound system stuck in her mind.
The only person who looked she was fighting the control was Reika. Most of her body was no longer under her control but she held herself up with one hand and her eyes looked straight at Kiriko to. Somehow she knew that Kiriko was responsible for everything that was happening. "Kiriko... What did you do? What did you do to everyone?"
Kiriko was quickly losing control, but a small part of her mind got her mouth to say to Reika. "I'm doing precisely what my dono ordered me to do; soon you and everyone else on the team will do what dono orders you to do, too, senpai. And you can enjoy it like I do now."
"Kiriko... What have you done? What have you done..?" With that Reika's eyes rolled up into her head and she dropped back into her chair where the flashing lights were now flashing into her empty eyes. She was finally being entranced.
Kiriko wanted to go the same restful place where Reika and the event team had gone to, but something kept her awake and watching. So she saw the third stage of the initial programming as the Controlled operating the system changed it right after she locked the main door to keep anyone from coming in and out.
The sound system in the studio now mixed commands with the music and the first command was to allow the second. The four girls most affected suddenly stood up, turned, and faced the LCD big-screen TV on one side of the room. Yumiko and and Hiroko stood up so suddenly they dropped the MP3 player, which pulled the headphones from their ears. Id did not matter; by now they were reacting to the lights and computer displays. Both they and Chie and Ayaka turned to the screen, eyes fixed on it with heads and body erect, their hands crossed behind their backs, legs straight and feet a shoulder length apart. Kiriko also went into that pose but she could still see some other girls standing away from the LCD screen. She knew that different programming would be needed for different girls but didn't know how they were going to do it.
All of a sudden a bright light, different from the others, appeared. It was more orange and red like the sun as it set in evening. Then everybody even a little bit under effects of the chemicals immediately froze in whatever pose they were holding and even the hardest ones to hypnotize were affected. The light had been installed by Maya during her break-in of the team rooms and as long as it stayed on any girls exposed to the chemical and initial programming would not be able to move at all by themselves. They could still be posed by others, but would remain still and motionless in the poses they had been put into. So Yumiko, Hiriko, Chie and Ayaka were frozen in their standing poses staring at the LCD screen. Kiriko was also standing in the same pose but she had been looking at the other girls so her eyes were frozen looking sideways.
Both Kaede and Shiho were posed on the floor, with Kaede on her right as Shiho was frozen by the light with a look of confusion and daze remaining on her face. Shiho's face was locked in arousal as her still-life version of herself remained on her back fondling herself, one hand on her breast the other was at her crotch. Her legs were opened wide and one booted leg was bent upward while the other was straight. Her eyes faced the ceiling like Reika's, who was posed still in her leaned-back reclining pose in the chair, one arm and hand still stretched out to the table top and the other dangling at the side. One of her legs was bent close to the chair and the other was in front of the chair, with her high heeled shoes slipping off her feet. She looked good for a woman her age and Kiriko wanted so much to see her dressed in a team outfit. Also at the table was Megumi, who was still staring at the far wall with blank expressionless face. She looked the same as she was before the light came on.
For a few minutes the light remained the same and everything stayed unchanged and unmoving. It looked like a still picture of the room with the girls inside instead of the actual room with the living girls held frozen by the light. Then the entrancing sequence begun to change. The LCD screen turned on and started playing the visual hypnotic programming for the four girls who were looking at it. The most suggestible of the girls would start their deeper programming now since they were the easiest to control. Kiriko also caught part of the video but she was not looking directly at it and it was not for her anyway. The other three girls and Reika needed more programming to make them as easy to control as the four looking transfixed at the LCD screen. So the commands in the music and the flashing lights continued to work on them until they too would stand up and watch the screen.
The programming went for an hour, with short breaks every couple of minutes where the light was turned off to allow any of the girls and Reika who still needed initial programming to stand and join the group of lovely living statues watching the screen. Within a half hour everybody in the room was staring at the screen while frozen in the same pose. Since it was Golden Week nobody disturbed the rooms while the programming went on and on; nobody in the room could recall how they were being controlled by the end of the session; all their memories of the induction were washed clean by their new instructions.
At the last break before the last part of the programming, Kiriko got a text message on her cell phone. It was from Natsumi and reading it caused a massive orgasm and climax to rip through Kiriko's still body when she read how pleased her dono was at the progress she had made. Usually she would be screaming and rolling around, not able to stand up from the pleasure and effort of her climax but since the light had gone on again she remained frozen in her pose like everyone else, not even her climax breaking her performance as a living statue. And Natsumi's programming of her thoughts increased her feelings of pleasure at being controlled enough for Kiriko to enjoy her gratification internally while still remaining frozen and controlled on the outside. The only thing that was different was the crotch of her jeans got very damp. Even controlled like she was, Kiriko was happy that her programming had her bring a long jacket for things like this!

Yuichi's lunch today had him visiting the store to see how all the preparations were going. He usually wouldn't spend time in traffic to visit the store just for lunch, but since it was his last day in the city and Golden Week was on he decided to do so. He was the boss and dono of his own empire and nobody was going to tell him anything else. His collection of petrified women definitely wouldn't.* * *
The same time Yuichi was leaving the store, another person was entering it. Miyu was a beautiful intelligent woman who thought she was going to start her extended vacation during Golden Week and then go into her paid time off. For some strange reason she found herself parking, leaving the luggage she had packed in her car in the underground parking garage of one of the trendiest department stores in Akihabara, and walking into the the store with her purse. She had shopped at the store before and thought it was a nice store to come back to sometime, but she didn't expect coming back on her vacation and didn't know what had gotten her to do so. All she knew was that she had to come back to this place with her airline ticket in her purse and she had to come back now. There were more things. She had to go to a certain door in the store and she would know what to do from there, only after she opened the door.They wheeled her out of the room and down the hall. Miyu was unable to see anything other than the ceiling but in her trance state she had no problems with that as the immobilized, costumed, woman was taken to her next job.
* * *
Yuichi walked around his office smiling at the surprise present he got. Golden Week was a holiday when most companies closed up in Japan and packages didn't get delivered during the week. When Yuichi heard a large shipment was being delivered to his offices he thought it was a weird mistake. When the delivery person took off her hat and let her long hair down her back, Yuichi knew that one of his Collected had completed the mission he gave her a few months ago."After I collected the first two women you ordered me to go after, dono, I found it was easy to collect the others you saw that day. Because it wasn't time to return yet, I went ahead to see how much I could do with the other team."
Next to the first pair of event girls was the other pair Yuichi had seen that day. The company sponsoring the event girls' team had gone for an all-black look with only the name of the company on small white strips different being from the outfit's color. Both girls had black panties on underneath the very short black leather skirts. The skirt was the same length as those of the other two girls but had a large slit up the side. Their tops were made of the same shiny leather but were cut high so the flat stomachs of both event girls were on display. Their tops were cut low on the back and there was material running in front from top of the breasts to surround the neck like a halter with the zipper running from the bottom. On the bodice the top was cut low so that the bra cups covering each of their breasts stood out on each girl with the material cut to make it stand out more against the flow and style of the top.
One woman had hair to her shoulders with large ring earrings dangling from the sides and a bright smile as her
