Holley and the Phantom: A Cars Fanfic: Chapter 1
I woke, half-conscious, being carried by a shadowed car. I couldn't see if I was tied up or not but either way I couldn't move. I felt being carried on for hours until the figure opened a door to a strange room. He placed me down on a soft bed, covered me in a blanket, and locked the door, leaving me there alone.
When I finally came too, I found that I had been tied up, looking as if I were mummified with thick black cords. I struggled to get out, but I could feel my restraints tighten up as I moved. I tried to release my wings but I found that they were gone. I could also see that the room was a pale white color- almost ghost-like. Then the door opened, and I saw the figure come in. I couldn't make out what type of car he was; he was red too with a sort of slender body and was wearing a mask and grinning.
"Welcome, my dear, I hope you've rested comfortably."
I couldn't seem to speak; it was as if I was an infant car, trying to speak for the first time.
At last I found my voice and said "What are you going to do with me?"
"Don't worry love; the only harm I'll do to you is that I'll tie you up whenever I feel like it.
"Who are you?"
"You can just call me Phantom."
"Why did you do this, and where am I?"
"Why, you're in my realm Holley, or do you prefer Miss Shiftwell, anyway I only did this so that we could have some fun together."
"What sort of fun, and how do you know my name?"
"You don't think I read the newspaper love, and the fun I'm talking about is that we would do things like solving puzzles, exercises, or if that doesn't suit you, you can always give up."
"What are you talking about?"
"Poor Holley, you with your smarts can't understand what I'm talking about, I'm saying that you're my guinea pig and I am the scientist that's going to experiment on you."
"What?" I couldn't raise my voice, because the cords would choke me if I tried to.
"Oh, and you're probably wondering what those cords are for, they're for my own delight. I have lots of quizzes to keep you busy, but don't worry, you'll get used to the routine."
"But why have you chosen me for this?"
"Because I just wanted to, now then I'll send you dinner up the dumbwaiter over there and feed it to you since you're well, you know, speaking of which if you're tense, I'll relax you."
I was about to ask what that meant, but I figured that he'd answered enough questions.
Just then the dumbwaiter brought the food and Phantom brought it over to me, feeding me as if I were royalty.
It was almost like magic when all of a sudden I felt Phantom's tires wrap around my body along with the cords. I could feel them rubbing against me, giving me a full massage. I didn't like admitting it, but it felt good, almost as if he was lightly tickling me. Soon the light tickling became full on and I couldn't help myself squirming. I could also feel my back, sides, and practically my entire body being tickled by him. I tried to keep still but every time I tried it became faster and faster. I finally burst out laughing as Phantom looked on, still grinning.
"I see you're enjoying my hospitality, well you'd better get some rest, you have a big day tomorrow." And with that he went out and locked the door.
I was embarrassed that I couldn't control myself, even if I was used to tickling, Mater would do it all the time when we were alone, then I remembered Mater. Did he know I was missing, is he looking for me, or did Phantom… no, that wouldn't happen, would it?
As I was thinking about this, I could feel myself drifting away from consciousness again. I couldn't seem to fight the urge and soon I fell into a dreamless sleep. I had no idea on what would happen to me, but I felt as if Phantom wanted more from me than my knowledge.
