Chuck vs Hypnotism
AN: I recently watched an episode of The Mentalist that gave me an idea for this Chuck fic, this is set during early season 2 so I hope you enjoy and don't forget to leave a review. PS: I know that Dr Dreyfuss didn't come in until Season 3 but I had no one else to use for the role I gave him in this fic.
Disclaimer: I don't own Chuck (one can only hope to)
"Hypnotism is a strange thing, it can almost manipulate the human mind into doing things that people wouldn't normally do, but not doing it so directly that it is obvious. Those who can manipulate hypnotism are extremely gifted," Dr Dreyfuss explained to Sarah and Casey.
"Guys, I'm not hypnotized," Chuck insisted. He'd recently been captured by Fulcrum agent Derek Raven code named Hypno, an enemy agent who had allegedly 'hypnotized' him before he was rescued. He'd be lying if he said that it was the first time he'd ever been captured by an enemy agent. And he reckoned that Sarah and Casey and Beckman were just overreacting by sending Dr Dreyfuss to castle.
"We can't know that for sure, Chuck," Sarah explained. "You probably don't feel different because hypnotism isn't direct but we need Dr Dreyfuss to check first."
"Are there like spirals in my eyes or something?" Chuck grinned. "Caause if there are I probably am hypnotized."
"It doesn't work that way, Bartowski," Casey grunted. "Hypnotism will shut out parts of your brain that you would normally pay attention and take into consideration before you did something."
"Mr Bartowski, can you remember anything that happened while you were captured?" the doctor asked.
Chuck began to think back, he remembered flashing on a couple of agents while he was captured and of course Derek Raven holding him at gunpoint, nothing out of the ordinary. He shook his head. "Nothing involving hypnotism."
The doctor nods his head. "I see, alright I may have an idea on how to determine whether you're hypnotized, Mr Bartowski," he said walking over to Chuck.
"Good," Casey grunted again. "The last thing that we need is you spewing out government secrets like a faucet to enemy agents on a mission."
The doctor examined Chuck's eyes. "Pupils are slightly dilated," he examined. "That could be a sign."
"My eyes look a bit funny today so that means I'm hypnotized?" Chuck raised an eyebrow. "Is that what you're saying?"
Dr Dreyfuss paused. "I think I have another way to determine this," he said. "Close do your eyes,"
Chuck did so. "I don't know how this works but okay," he muttered.
"Now, imagine you can do anything in this whole room. Anything at all," the doctor told him. "Anything at all,"he repeated.
"I don't like where this is going," Sarah muttered under her breath. Of course inside she liked where this is going but the asset/handler relationship, the Intersect and everything with the CIA would just make it complicated. She knew that despite what she really felt, she'd always have to keep him at arms length for his protection. Somewhere in the background she heard Casey give an amused grunt.
"Okay, now I want you to open your eyes and go do that," the doctor said.
Chuck, without hesitation, opened his eyes, walked over to where Sarah was standing and pulled her into a deep kiss, not taking that fact that they were being watched and the fact that she was his handler into account. She felt her heart beating faster as he ran his hand through her blond hair. She was unresponsive for the first couple of seconds but ended up surrendering to the touch of his eager lips.
"Oh yeah," Casey told the doctor. "He is definitely hypnotized."
AN: Thanks for reading, please review, I am always open to feedback and constructive criticism.
