Reverse It - Part 2 Archie Fan - betty_cooper72@yahoo.ca Cheryl tells Veronica the story of how she disappeared. This story was written for my friend KissTheManiac ****************************************************************************** ****** Cheryl and Veronica were thankful that Dilton still went to school. It was the only time that they had where they knew they were safe from his torments. At first the two girls hadn't spoken with each other. Before everything they had not been friends but in fact were bitter rivals. However shared trauma has a way of bringing people together. It started with the two of them both expressing their opinions on Dilton. They were both surprised by how sadistic and twisted he was, especially given the meek and timid vibe he had given off at school. Soon they opened up and had begun conversing. One day Veronica asked Cheryl just how she had end up falling into Dilton's clutches. "I was manipulating Dilton to my advantage," Cheryl explained. "Taking advantage of his weak and helpless nature, or at least I thought I was. I basically agreed to spend time with him, maybe even occasionally give him a kiss; but only in private and only if he said nothing to anybody. And in return he did my homework and got a boost to my grades." "That would explain why he wasn't even considered a suspect in your disappearance," Veronica commented. Cheryl nodded in agreement. "The agreement worked great at first, my GPA was on the rise and I didn't have to do anything. He was even able to mimic my own writing style for essays and reports." Cheryl said. "Then one day I came over to Dilton's to pick up an English essay. When I came over I usually entered through the back door and took the stairs right down to his laboratory to avoid his mother. While we were down there his mother called Dilton upstairs to help with something. He told me to stay down here since his mother was such a gossip..." ****************************************************************************** ****** Two Months Ago... Cheryl was waiting in Dilton's basement. He'd gone upstairs at least fifteen minutes ago to help his mother with something and still hadn't returned. Cheryl had just come here to pick up an English essay that was going to be due on Monday and she was annoyed at how long this was taking. She looked around the basement. Dilton had quite the set up with his personal laboratory for his experiments and also a fancy looking model train set. Cheryl went over and played around with the train set a bit. However when she moved one of the dials, no train moved. However she heard a noise behind her and Cheryl turned around to see that a section of the basement wall had slid open revealing a second lab. "What the heck?" Cheryl muttered as she went into the recently revealed lab to have a look. There was a lot of electronic components spread out on a work bench as well as a strange looking device, Cheryl had no idea what it was though. Cheryl figured Dilton had been working on an invention of some sort. Cheryl then got a devilish idea; if the invention was worth something perhaps she could exploit Dilton even more than she already was. There was a notebook sitting on the workbench and Cheryl picked it up. "S.A.D.?" Cheryl read. "What does that... oh, Size Altering Device. I think he needs to work on the name." Cheryl glanced from the notebook to the device sitting on the workbench. "So this thing can alter things' sizes," Cheryl muttered, intrigued as she read the notebook. Most of it was technical stuff that she didn't understand. However, Cheryl decided to see if it actually worked. She picked up the device and pointed the device at a pair of wire cutters on the workbench. She pushed a button, the device fired a yellow beam and the wire cutters doubled in size. "Whoa amazing!" Cheryl exclaimed. She pushed a second button, the device fired a purple beam and the wire cutters shrank back down to their previous size. "That's crazy," Cheryl said as she set the device down. Cheryl then looked at the notebook again to see if perhaps there was a limit on how big or small things could get, however she didn't see anything. But then Cheryl reached the last page of the notebook with anything written on it. "Shrink test was a success," it read. "Now I just need to find a way to get her in front of the device." "Shrink test? Get her in front of the device? Was he planning to use this on me?" Cheryl asked the notebook. Of course the notebook couldn't answer her. "Well if Dilton thinks he's going to shrink me he's got another thing coming," Cheryl muttered to herself as she put the notebook down. Cheryl picked up the device and pointed it at herself. She then pushed a button and the yellow beam shot out striking her. For a moment nothing happened and Cheryl thought perhaps the device hadn't worked, but then Cheryl felt a strange sensation like vertigo. She set the device down on the work bench so she didn't drop it and then staggered back. Suddenly everything in the room seemed to get smaller. It took Cheryl a moment though to realize that it wasn't the room getting smaller, it was that she was getting bigger. As Cheryl grew bigger, she didn't just get taller. Her muscles and her boobs both got bigger as well. Cheryl soon found her head bumping against the ceiling and she was still growing. When Cheryl finally stopped growing she was so tall that she had to crouch to fit in the basement. Cheryl wasn't quite sure how big she was but she guessed that she was probably twelve feet tall. Her clothing, which no longer fit lay on the ground in tatters. "Thought he could shrink me, well that little pipsqueak has another thing coming," Cheryl muttered to herself. Cheryl made her way over towards the stairs and patiently waited for Dilton to return. Finally almost twenty-minutes later Dilton came back downstairs. As he reached the bottom of the stairs Dilton noticed that the door to the hidden part of his lab was open. He didn't see Cheryl hiding off to the side of the stairs. "Oh no!" Dilton exclaimed as he hurried down the rest of the stairs. "Cheryl what did you...?" Dilton never finished his question as Cheryl grabbed by the neck with one big hand and lifted Dilton up off the ground, bouncing his head off the basement's drop ceiling. "Looking for me?" Cheryl asked. "Cheryl look I can explain," Dilton pleaded. "I..." "You were planning to shrink me," Cheryl said. "Well surprise, instead I grew myself." Cheryl tossed Dilton to the ground and did her best to flex in the confines of the basement. "Mmm, fuck this is amazing!" Cheryl moaned. "Thanks to you I am so fucking powerful now." Dilton scrambled to his feet and started running towards the lab. Cheryl realized he was going for the device and she grabbed Dilton by his leg and picked him up so that she was holding him upside down by his ankle. "Uh, uh, you're not shrinking me today," Cheryl said. "Put me down!" Dilton demanded. Cheryl shrugged her huge shoulders and then dropped Dilton. Dilton barely managed to avoid landing on his head as he landed on the ground in a heap. "Oh this is so awesome," Cheryl exclaimed. "Now I can dominate not just you but everyone at school." Dilton scrambled to his feet once more and Cheryl moved towards the laboratory to intercept him. However Dilton instead ran the other direction towards a closet. Cheryl wasn't sure what he was doing but chased after him, having to make her way around a support post that slowed her down. Dilton flung the closet open and pulled out something that looked like a ray gun or something from a 60's sci-fi movie. Dilton hurriedly aimed it towards Cheryl and fired, a red ray shooting out from the weapon. Cheryl dodged as best she could, but the ray still struck her arm, drawing some blood and burning her flesh slightly too. However, Cheryl barely felt any pain and it did nothing to slow her down. However she realized that it could potentially do more damage and possibly even kill her. She reached out and grabbed the barrel of the weapon before Dilton could fire it at her again and ripped the weapon from Dilton hands and then crushed it with her bare hand. "You bitch!" Dilton cursed. "That particle beam took me two years to build. All the soldering, developing a power source, just get it working. You just destroyed..." "Shut up," Cheryl said as she backhanded Dilton. Dilton was sent flying across the basement striking the wall where he slumped to the ground unconscious. "Fuck, it is amazing how powerful I am," Cheryl said as she rubbed her body getting turned on by her immense size and strength. Cheryl fingered herself, but that wasn't enough. She was feeling so horny, but she needed something bigger. She looked around and saw an aluminum baseball bat. She wondered why Dilton even had something like it down here, he didn't participate in sports and as far as Cheryl knew had no interest in them either, and it wasn't like he needed it for protection. However it didn't really matter, Cheryl grabbed the baseball bat and began using it like a dildo to pleasure herself. About fifteen feet away Dilton regained consciousness. He looked over to see that Cheryl was happily pleasuring herself with the baseball bat. Dilton noticed how the aluminum bat was starting to look warped. So far his plans hadn't gone as he expected, but all was not lost. He glanced towards his hidden lab to see the device sitting intact on the workbench. All he had to do was make sure Cheryl didn't notice him. Carefully Dilton crawled across the basement to his lab. Cheryl was just reaching climax when suddenly she was struck by a purple ray. A moment later Cheryl found herself shrinking down. Cheryl looked to see Dilton holding the device pointing it at her and walking towards her. "You little twerp!" Cheryl exclaimed as she stood up, she was already down to about seven feet tall and her head no longer bumped the ceiling. Cheryl charged at Dilton but with each step she seemed to lose almost a foot in height. By the time she got to him Cheryl had been shrunk down to about three inches tall. Dilton chuckled as he bent down and picked Cheryl up. "Who's the little twerp now?" Dilton asked her with a smug expression on his face. Cheryl pounded her fists against Dilton's hand but it had almost no effect. "I will get you for this!" Cheryl shouted her voice sounding higher pitched and squeaky. "Oh I don't think so," Dilton replied. "People will come looking for me!" Cheryl said. "My father is a rich man." Dilton ignored her as he walked over to what looked like a hamster cage. He opened the top and dropped Cheryl inside. He then bent down to look closer at her. "Welcome to your new home," Dilton said. "You can't keep me here!" Cheryl shouted. "People will find me!" "Nobody is going to find you," Dilton said. "You should know by now that I am a meticulous planner. I've had a plan in place to cover up your disappearance for weeks now." Cheryl was shocked, she had no idea that Dilton had been this maniacal. "Your car is going to be found on the outskirts of town," Dilton replied. "And you've left me quite a lot of good evidence to make it look like you were raped and murdered." Cheryl was speechless, but she knew that if there was anyone that could stage a crime scene it was Dilton. "You've been using me for months now," Dilton said to her. "But now I'm the one that's going to be using you." ****************************************************************************** ****** "That's awful," Veronica commented as Cheryl finished the story. "I know, he's just so evil and devious," Cheryl said. "He also knew that by making it look like a serial killer had gotten to me that it would lead to the curfew and the buddy system. I don't know all the things he did, but I know that he sent a letter to police. And like he told me, he is meticulous. He made sure that nothing could trace back to him." "It's still hard to believe that Dilton is capable of all this," Veronica said. "He's a psychopath," Cheryl said. "His weak and timid persona is simply a way to cover his true evil nature." "And we're the only two that know what Dilton truly is," Veronica said. "We've got to stop him." "Yeah but how? We're only three inches tall. He's keeping us in a hamster cage in his basement that's been trapped to prevent our escape." Cheryl stated. "If we work together I'm sure we can figure out a way to escape," Veronica said. "I mean what do we have to lose really at this point?" "Fair enough," Cheryl agreed. "But how are we going to get out of the cage? Look at all the ways he's secured it. The bars are electrified, the cage is sitting on a scale and if the weight drops for an extended period of time it sets off an alarm, not to mention we're also locked in the hidden part of his lab." Veronica looked around considering. "The bars are electrified, but the top of the cage is plastic, and it doesn't look like he's done anything to that," Veronica remarked. "Yeah but how do we get up there? We can't climb the bars to reach it," Cheryl pointed out. "Well maybe we don't need to climb," Veronica said. "What do you mean?" Cheryl asked. "Well look at us, even though we've been shrunk down to three inches tall we're both still really muscular," Veronica said. "So I think we're probably really strong for our size." "Well I won't disagree with that," Cheryl agreed. "Well let's see..." Veronica mumbled. As Cheryl watched Veronica did her best to jump as high as she could. But while Veronica jumped at least five times her own height it wasn't enough to reach the top of the cage. "Yeah that won't work, I tried that at the start," Cheryl said. "Well what if I gave you a boost?" Veronica suggested. Cheryl looked up at the top of the cage and then back at Veronica. "Why you boosting me?" Cheryl asked suspiciously. Veronica flexed her arms. "Because I'm clearly the stronger one," Veronica said her biceps definitely bigger than Cheryl's. "Alright fine," Cheryl conceded. Veronica crouched down and held out her hands for Cheryl to step onto. Cheryl stepped up and the two of them then counted to three and Veronica then boosted Cheryl up as Cheryl jumped. Cheryl soared up all the way to the top of the cage. She was able to reach her hand through a plastic airhole and hang on. "Alright, now you just need to get the top open," Veronica called up. "Yeah easy for you to say," Cheryl muttered. Carefully making her way along hand over hand, Cheryl reached the plastic latch that held the door at the top of the cage closed. With her small but powerful muscles Cheryl pulled on the latch and snapped it. She was then able to carefully squeeze her way up, being careful not to touch the wire cage. She then shoved the door open. "Okay so now what?" Cheryl asked as she stood at the top. "If I get off the cage for too long it will set off the alarm." "You'll need to find something to help me climb up there," Veronica replied. "And then we need to find something that weighs the same as us so it doesn't set off the alarm." Cheryl looked around. There was a shelf that was only about six inches above where she was and about six inches away. It was a big distance at her size, but she could see several useful items on the shelf, like a coffee tin filled with screws and bolts and a large dirty rag. Cheryl closed the top of the cage, she was going to need a running start. She then got as much distance as she could and took a running leap. Cheryl was able to jump far enough to grab the shelf with both hands and she pulled herself up. She then grabbed the rag and jumped back. Cheryl then opened the cage back up and lowed the rag down as far as she could. "Can you grab it?" Cheryl asked. Veronica was easily able to jump up and grab the rag. Cheryl then pulled Veronica up to the top of the cage and helped her out. "So there's a can of nuts and bolts there," Cheryl said pointing at the shelf. "I figure we can use that to simulate our weight." "Sounds like a plan," Veronica agreed. "So you boost me over there, I'll toss the nuts and bolts to you and you drop them into the cage," Cheryl suggested. Veronica nodded in agreement. She then boosted Cheryl back over to the shelf and Cheryl climbed into the coffee tin and began tossing nuts and bolts back to Veronica as quickly as she could. Veronica dropped the nuts and bolts down into the cage, the two of them working quickly so as not to set off the alarm. "Okay I think that should be enough," Cheryl called. "I think the alarm would be going off by now if it wasn't." "You're probably right," Veronica agreed. Veronica then leapt over to the shelf where Cheryl was. "So what's our next plan?" Cheryl asked. "We need to use the device to grow ourselves back," Veronica said. "You mean the device that's locked in there?" Cheryl asked pointed at a locked cabinet. "Face it we're going to need someone else's help with this." Just then they heard voices coming from the upstairs. "Hi Miss Doiley, Miss Grundy dropped me off because Dilton is helping Professor Flutesnoot with something," they heard the voice of Betty. "However, Dilton and I have a report for history class we need to do for tomorrow some I'll just wait for him in the basement." "Betty, Betty can get us out of this," Veronica said. "I wouldn't be so sure, I think she's drank quite a bit of the Dilton Kool-Aid," Cheryl said doubtfully. "Betty is my best friend," Veronica said. "She'll most certainly help us." "I think she's going to need some convincing on that part," Cheryl said. "Don't forget the last time she saw you, you were rampaging through downtown as a giantess killing police officers and also threatening to kill everyone at Riverdale High unless they turned over Dilton to you. As bad as the things are that Dilton has done to us, you are a mass murderer." Veronica stared at Cheryl for a long moment. "Damnit Cheryl why do you have to go and use logical thinking like that?" Veronica complained. Cheryl just chuckled and shook her head. "Look the best way to convince Betty to help us is to convince her that Dilton plans to do the same to her," Cheryl said. "Well then lets just tell her that," Veronica said. "I mean we know that's what he has planned." "Yeah but we have no proof, it's our word against his," Cheryl said. Veronica then spied something that could help them. "His laptop," Veronica said pointing at the laptop sitting on the workbench. "Yeah what about it?" Cheryl asked. "Dilton has filmed some of his torture sessions," Veronica replied. "He watches them on there. We just need to show one of them to Betty." Cheryl nodded in agreement. "Yeah, she sees what he's been doing to us, she'll feel obligated to help us," Cheryl stated. "But we're going to have to get her in here to show her the video. We're both strong, but I think that at our current size that laptop is too heavy for either of us to move, at least not without dropping it." "Yeah, that's for sure," Veronica agreed. "It would probably be easier if we lead Betty in here." Cheryl nodded. "But we should make sure we have a video to show her first," Cheryl said. The two of them made their way over to the laptop. Working together they were able to open it up and turn it on. "Crap, it's password protected," Veronica cursed. "Try, microgirls," Cheryl suggested. The two of them worked to put in the suggested password. Surprisingly it work. "How did you know?" Veronica asked. "Dilton may be smart, but he's not very creative," Cheryl replied. "I did tell you that his original acronym for the device was SAD right?" Veronica nodded and chuckled. Once the computer was logged in and ready to go the two of them searched for a video. It didn't take long, Dilton hadn't done anything to hide the videos and there were dozens. Some from when it was just Cheryl and others with both Cheryl and Veronica. They picked a video where Dilton had stuck them in a juice bottle and then had urinated on them while they were trapped in there and cued it up. "Okay so once we get Betty in here all we need to do is hit play," Veronica said. "One of us should stay up here and the other goes to get Betty," Cheryl suggested. "You stay here then, I'll get Betty," Veronica replied. Cheryl didn't argue with that and simply nodded. Veronica then jumped down off the workbench and made her way over to the secret door. There was a gap under the door that was just big enough that she could squeeze under it. As Veronica crawled under it she thought she might have been stuck and that perhaps Cheryl should have been doing this since she was a little smaller. However Veronica was able to wriggle free and the though passed. Veronica looked around, she saw that Betty was sitting on the couch in the basement reading a book, however she looked to be half asleep. Veronica made her way over towards the trainset which controlled the door. She was able to climb up using the electrical cords onto the table. She then went over to the control panel. "Okay now which one was it again," Veronica muttered to herself. Veronica turned one of the knobs and one of the trains began making it's way around the track. "What the?" Betty asked in surprise as she sat up. Veronica hurriedly turned the other knobs not worrying which on it was. The other trains began moving, but the door to the hidden lab also slid open. Betty was surprised. She had been down here many times with Dilton and she had never seen this hidden room before. Curiosity quickly took over. Veronica took a moment to smile as she watched Betty make her way to the hidden lab. Then Veronica climbed down and followed. Betty didn't notice Veronica who began climbing back up onto the work bench, instead just looking around the hidden lab in fascination. Veronica was annoyed, Cheryl hadn't started the video yet. "Cheryl!" Veronica called out. Betty looked around in surprise. She had heard a voice that sound vaguely familiar, like it was Veronica. Last Betty had seen Veronica she had been a giantess and was threatening the school if they didn't turn over Dilton. But Veronica was dead, Dilton said he had disintegrated her to save the town, so it couldn't be. Suddenly she heard a noise from the laptop on the work bench. As Betty watched she saw Dilton picking up two small creatures from a hamster cage. As Betty looked closer she realized that they weren't creatures, it was Cheryl and Veronica, they were just the size of mice. "What the heck?" Betty asked in surprise. As she continued watching Dilton put the two of them into a large bottle. Dilton then pulled down his pants and began urinating into the bottle onto the two tiny girls. "Oh my god!" Betty shouted. "What is Dilton doing?" "He's torturing us," Cheryl said. Betty looked down to see the tiny Cheryl step out from behind the laptop. "Cheryl?" Betty asked in surprise. "But how is this possible?" "Dilton shrank me down to this size and made it look like I had been kidnapped, raped and murdered," Cheryl replied. "And he did similar to me," Veronica said as she pulled herself up onto the workbench. Betty was shocked, two people she thought were dead were actually three inch tall prisoners in Dilton's basement. "Dilton did this two you?" Betty asked in disbelief. "Yes, he has a device that can let you grow or shrink, it's locked in that cabinet up there," Cheryl replied pointing up. "He was planning to shrink you down to the same size as us," Veronica added. "No!" Betty exclaimed. Cheryl stopped the movie and started up a second one. This one wasn't a torture film, but rather one of Dilton's personal vlogs. "It's just a matter of time before I add Betty to my collection," Dilton said. "My plans for covering up her disappearance are almost ready, once they're done I'll shrink her down." Betty's eyes went wide with shock and horror. She had thought that Dilton was an honourable hero who had saved the town from destruction, but really he was the one responsible for it all! "Oh my gosh, Dilton is a monster!" Betty said. "What can we do to stop him?" Cheryl and Veronica both looked at each other and smiled. Soon they'd be turning the tables on Dilton. To Be Continued...
