Victoria was a little confused when she met the new fellow her parents had brought home. he had this round face, big brown eyes and hairy body.
"this is Steven, he will be living with us for some time from now" Victoria's mother said.
Victoria was a 10 year old girl with blue eyes and long curly blond hair and both her parents was working at the local zoo.
"you brought home a Monkey?" Victoria said. they already had 2 dogs, 3 cats and a rabbit as if that wasn't enough.
"it's a chimp to be little specific" her father said "he was previously owned by someone who didn't treat him as well and the animal protection took him away. now we are going to keep him at the zoo but he is going to live here for a little while first so he can gain some trust to your mother and i".
Steven the chimp seemed to be a little bit shy while he was hiding behind the TV, but still curious as he kept peeking.
one of the cats was standing in the opposite end of the living room and also seemed to be curious about the newcomer.
Victoria's mother bent down on her knees as she said "come on Steven, nothing to be afraid off".
the chimp carefully walked toward them as he looked around and studied the room.
"this is Victoria our youngest daughter" she said as Steven approached closer.
Victoria reached out her arm carefully to the monkey who got a little startled at first "don't worry, won't hurt you" Victoria laughed.
Steven carefully grabbed her arm and shook it.
"i think we might become good friends" Victoria smiled.
"good, then maybe you would like to show him around the house" her father said "but don't get to close to the dogs with him, they might scare him".
Victoria led Steven around the house as she spoke "alright you have already seen the living room, so why don't we just start with the kitchen?"
as Victoria walked away with Steven her mom said "darling, don't you think we should tell her a little bit more about the previous owner?"
"no, if she knew it might scare her to think that he could shove up here to cause trouble".
meanwhile Victoria walked around with Steven and showed him around the house.
"and don't forget that this room belongs to my older brother Johnny, he is 14 years old and practically lives in his own world of computer games, he is boring.
this is Jack's room, he is my oldest brother and if you ever go into his room he will get very angry at you and probably shout a lot of words that we usually aren't allowed to say, especially since my grandma ended up in the hospital once when she heard him use them. but Jack is in the army right now so as long as you don't make a mess he won't notice.
and this is the bathroom, all i gotta say to you is if you are going to brush your teeth then stay away from the pink toothbrush because that is mine.
now this pretty room over here is my room. now let me show you outside the house".
they walked out trough the back door and into the huge backyard.
"before we step outside i just have to put something on my feet, this boots will be a perfect. i know you are a boy Steven, but trust me if you know how dress properly you will have a much better chance with the lady chimps when you get to the zoo. i can teach you a lot about fashion if you want to for an instance..."
Steven covered his ears as Victoria kept talking about her clothes. her mouth was like 7/11, always open.
"now my dad said that we should wait with introducing you to the dogs since they might scare you, one of them is a Schaefer and she has a huge lack of impulse control.
over here is the tool shed where we keep all our tools and some other cool stuff, come on i will show you".
they entered the tool shed and there was indeed a lot of items and stuff in there. an motorcycle, garden furnitures, all kinds of tools, a moose head hanging on the wall, some old speakers and a couple of boxes that where filled with some old trash. but Steven seemed to have caught his eyes on something else in the big shed.
"now the motorcycle belongs to Jack, he is really into mechanic and stuff. the tools are actually my dad's but Jack uses them the most when he is home... Steven what are you doing?"
Victoria finally noticed the monkey picking something up from the floor, it was a short white cotton rope.
"you like those?"
Steven now grabbed Victoria's arm and led her to one of the garden chairs.
"do you want me to sit here?" she said.
Victoria sat down in the chair as she folded out her green skirt as she sat down in the chair. then Steven leaded her arms behind her back and started to tie the rope around her wrists.
"what the are you going to tie me up?" Victoria giggled.
it would not be the first time she was tied up though, she had played a couple of games with her friends where either Victoria or one of her friends would get tied up. but where had this monkey learned to use a rope this way and why?
Steven went back to pick another rope, meanwhile Victoria decided to test her bounds. the rope where tightly knotted and once again she had to ask herself how come he knew how to do this...
the chimp returned with another length of cotton rope that he tied around her boots and then pulled the remaining rope underneath the chair where he knotted it so her feet got stuck to the chair.
"you are really good at this, already you have tied me up better than any of my friends ever have" Victoria said as she struggled against the ropes.
but Steven was not done yet it seemed as he came with yet another length of cotton rope that he now started to tie around Victoria's upper body. the ropes started to cover the blue dragon on her black t-shirt as her arms got pinned to her body. the rope surrounded her waist 14 times as far as she could count, and to her shock Steven still didn't seem to be done as he came with yet another rope.
"uh, Steven don't you think this is enough now?"
apparently not as he now tied the rope around her lap and the seat of the chair "hey, if you are going to tie me up more at least be careful with the skirt".
Steven kept using the same rope to tie around the chair back and Victoria's body so she got even more pinned up against the chair.
finally it seemed like Steven was done with all the ropes.
Victoria tested out her bounds and was by no doubt restrained.
"okey, where the heck did learn to this?" Victoria said surprised.
Steven was now looking around for something and then got a big smile, you know that typical smile with big teeth a monkey has. he walked toward the tools and found and old rag.
"oh no, you got be kidding me" Victoria said "you know how to gag people too?"
Steven jumped up into Victoria's lap with the rag and smiled.
"NO STEVEN! that is filthy, all the black stuff is old motorcycle oil"
Steven tried to tie the rag around Victoria's mouth as she kept moving her head away "NO Steven! the fact that you have tied me up is fun and all, but i do not want to be gagged".
at last Victoria didn't see any other choice, as she started to scream as loud as she could.
Steven was shocked by the loud and clear sound of the screaming girl he had captured and covered his ears as he felt back on the floor with wide open eyes and a gasping mouth.
the monkey got back on his feet knocked his fist into the side of his head and then pushed a finger into his ear as if he tried to get something out.
it only took about a minute before Victoria's dad came rushing in.
"what is going in here?"
he looked at his daughter who was sitting strictly tied in the chair with the monkey standing next to her.
"oh, Steven and i are just playing a little game" she said.
"how did you get tied up like this?"
"you might find this hard to believe but the monkey did"
Victoria's father looked at Steven and said "you are right, i do find that hard to believe"
"well i can prove it, just untie me and i'm sure he will tie me up again"
he started to untie Victoria and after five minutes she was once again feeling the freedom.
"now try and give Steven the ropes and see what he does" Victoria said.
"yeah of course... here Steven, show me" he said as gave Steven the ropes and pointed at Victoria.
just like Victoria had predicted Steven started to tie her wrists up behind her back again and followed up with tying another rope around her feet.
"i have seen enough, but how is it possible... i have to make a phone call" Victoria's father said as he started to walk back to the house.
"uh dad. what about me? are you just gonna leave me her like this?" Victoria said as Steven tied a rope around her waist.
"oh no, of course not. that is enough Steven" he said and untied Victoria again.
20 minutes later Victoria's dad came into the living room after he talked with the animal protection who had confiscated the monkey in the first place.
Victoria was sitting in the couch next to her mom who had Steven in her lap as her father started to speak.
"well, the police and the animal protection had forgotten to mention a few minor details for us. you see Victoria, Steven's previous owner was a criminal called Larry Pantceroff and he was training Steven to do criminal actions for him. but he didn't get that far before the police got onto him. this we already knew about but we originally didn't want to tell you because we where afraid we might scare you or something. but what they hadn't informed us about yet was that Larry so far had only managed to learn Steven how tie up a hostage properly, so he don't know any other criminal moves".
Victoria sat with her arms crossed and said "so he has actually been trained to tie up others?"
"yes, he is supposed to do it on command but since he is learned to think that he has to do these sort of things i assume he wanted to impress you about how well he could tie you up. anyway the reason why we got him here is because we have to make forget about what he learned from Larry Pantceroff, so i suggest that we don't let him come across any ropes that are loose. but if it should happen again there is a command you may use to tell him to free the person who is tied up".
"hmm, nice to know" Victoria said. secretly she did enjoy being tied up by the monkey but she didn't want her parents to know that. it was just that the rag he was about to use was so filthy, if it weren't for that she wouldn't have screamed in the first place.
"now remember Veronica, we are supposed teach him to behave and tying up people is not properly for him, so if he ever tries to tie you up or anyone else you know for that matter the command is simple: Steven remove the ropes".
"that's all? that was all i had to say to make him stop?"
"yes".
"well, now that i am aware about this maybe i should show Steven the rest of the house" Victoria said as she got up from the couch and dragged took Steven's arm "come on Steven, now i am really sure that the two of us should really get along" she said as they walked out of the living room again.
"didn't she already show him the entire house?" her mom said.
"apparently not".
Victoria now back into the tool shed with Steven and grabbed the ropes that was laying around the chair after the previous visit "let's take those and go somewhere else" she said.
they walked to a tree house in the backyard that her brother Jack had built back when he was a kid and climbed up.
"now i wanna see how well you can tie me up without the chair" she said as she gave Steven the ropes.
she sat down on her bare knees and looked at Steven "come on now, i promise i won't scream this time" she place her arms behind her back and offered them to the monkey.
it didn't take long before she felt the ropes around wrists again.
"oh boy, i can't wait to tell Sophie about this" she said when Steven started pulling out the next rope. he looked at her and seemed to be little more interested in what she said now compared to back when Victoria was talking about fashion.
"do you remember that i mentioned that my Friends have tied me up a couple of times? well Sophie is my best friend and we have tied each other up a couple of times when we are bored, but we always end up arguing about which one of us that is going to be tied up. now you can tie both of us".
Steven kept wrapping a rope several times around Victoria's chest so her arms got pinned to her upper body from elbows to shoulders. he now looked at her feet as in he was planning on tying them too.
"oh, i know. i just sit up against the wall instead" Victoria said and then stood up on her feet and walked to the wall where she sat down and stretched her legs out.
Steven now took another rope and tied it around Victoria's legs. 5 times around her ankles and another 5 times above her knees.
"i have to admit, it's impressing how well you have been taught to do this" she said as she tried to struggle against her bonds.
there was still another rope left, the same rope Steven had used earlier to fasten Victoria to the chair in the shed.
"so now that you don't have any chair to tie me to, what will you do with the last rope?"
Steven scratched his head and grabbed the last rope that he tied first around the ropes surrounding Victoria's ankles. now he started to signalize that he wanted her to move.
"what? do you want me move?"
Steven sat down on his knees and then pointed at her.
"oh, you want me to move back on my knees. well i guess i could give it a try"
Victoria started to move a little. she was very athletic so it didn't take her long before she managed to sit on her knees again. Steven then took the remaining long length of rope and tied it first around the rope around Victoria's wrists so she ended up in a sitting hogtie. then he used the rest of the rope to tie around her waist so her lower arms got pinned to her body as well.
Victoria tried to struggle and realized soon that she would stay tied up like this until either Steven untied her or until somebody else discovered her.
"very good Steven" she said with a smile.
Steven clapped his hands and gave big monkey smile.
"you know what, i would let you gag me too if it weren't for that i won't be able to have you untie me again after... but maybe i could train you to follow a different command that i don't need to speak"
Victoria was tied up in the tree house for another hour before she finally decided to tell Steven to remove the ropes.
first thing in the morning she would invite Sophie over and introduce her to the new family member.
end.
now what do you readers think?
was this an interesting story?
and most importantly of all should i continue writing stories about Steven and how he gets to tie up Victoria and maybe some of her friends?
