Outplayed

Mimoko glared as she sat restrained in a salon chair with a piece of tape over her mouth. "Ara, ara, no need to scowl," Sorcha giggled as she tilted Mimoko's head back.

She then planted a kiss on the tape covering Mimoko's mouth, causing Mimoko to go red in the face and let out a series of muffled protests.

"Ara, ara. Don't worry, the tape was covering your mouth so I didn't steal your first kiss," Sorcha giggled as she peeled the tape off Mimoko's mouth.

"Peh! You... What is the meaning of this!?"

"Oh, the Fairy league is simply holding you hostage. Now, while I stand guard over you, let's play a little game, shall we," Sorcha smiled as she draped Mimoko in a clear plastic cape.

She then set her phone down and began recording.

"And what's this for?" Mmoko growled.

"Your makeover documentation, that's what. But the exact makeover you get depends on how well you do in my game."

"And if I don't want a makeover?"

"Only if you win," Sorcha sang as she sang as she pulled a second phone out of her pocket. "Now, I'm about to show you a game I filmed between your friends. The goal of my game is to simply predict the result. You guess right, I'll leave you be. Guess it wrong, and it's makeover time. So Mimoko, who do you think's going to win?"

Mimoko scowled and replied that with Iori and Carol playing, it was a toss up as both were capable of playing unpredictably. Sorcha decided to give it to her and rephrased the question asking instead if Mimoko believed the game would end in a castling checkmate in under 10 moves. This time, Mimoko answered almost instantly with a resounding, "No."

"Ara? And why's that?"

"Simple, it's incredibly rare to get a castling checkmate. I myself have yet to get one, and with the added condition that it be made in under 10 moves, it's just flat out impossible."

"Ara, ara, then that's your answer. Now let's watch the video."

As the video played, Mimoko watched as the game started out with Carol moving her pawn to e4 and Iori moving her pawn to e5. Nothing out of the ordinary until Carol moved her king to e2 and Iori followed up by moving her bishop to d6.

"Ara, I can see why you were hesitant to pick a winner," Sorcha giggled as Carol moved her king to f3.

"Oh, YOU THINK!?" Mimoko retorted as Iori moved her queen to g5.

While things looked bad for Carol, the game was still playable for her, until she moved her bishop to c4.

"Ugh. Well, Iori's probably going to win this barring no- ...!"

Mimoko's jaw hung down in horror as Iori moved her knight to h6, but her fears were truly confirmed when Carol moved her bishop to e6 and Iori captured it with her f-pawn.

"No, NO! THOSE ASSHOLES!" Mimoko shouted as Carol moved her queen to e2, allowing Iori to checkmate her with a king's side castle.

"Ara, ara, that's a castling checkmate in 6 moves. Seems you're friends want you to get a makeover. Now lets begin," Sorcha giggled as she grabbed some lipstick and tilted Mimoko's head back.

Mimoko was still in a state of shock and anger, but none the less, obediently puckered up her lips as Sorcha applied the lipstick.

"Ara, ara, you're being so obedient."

"Shut up. I'm only letting you do my makeup."

"And who said I'd just be doing your makeup? You're in a state of the art hair salon after all."

A few minutes later, Sorcha finished with the makeup. To Mimoko's surprise, she did an amazing job, so much that she even praised her for her work.

"Ara, ara. Such kind words. And you'd make a great model."

"Y- You really think that?"

"Ara?"

Mimoko went quiet before mumbling about how she always wanted to be a model like Mizuse when she was younger.

"Ara, ara! So cute. Well, put on a smile, for I'm going to teach you how models always hold a smile. Don't open your mouth though."

Mimoko obliged and put on a smile as Sorcha pulled out a small brush and dipped it in a small contained of clear liquid. She then spread the liquid evenly across Mimoko's lips and let it sit before gently blowing on it.

"Mmph. Mmmph... MMPH!?"

To Mimoko's horror, her mouth had been sealed shut, preventing her from talking.

"Ara, ara. That's the secret; if you want a model to hold a smile for hours, glue her mouth shut while she's smiling," Sorcha giggled as she began removing Mimoko's hair ties.

Mimoko blushed as her hair came tumbling down. While she did look arguably more beautiful with her hair down, she always preferred to style it in twin tails as she felt it looked more beautiful. Before she could dwell on the issue too much, Sorcha spun her around and tilted her head into the sink before washing her hair.

The sensation quickly put Mimoko in a blissful state, but once the washing was done, her glare returned. Especially as she saw Sorcha grabbing some orange hair dye and perm rollers.

"Now, first we dye, then we perm," Sorcha giggled as she removed the towel from Mimoko's head and began brushing out her hair.

Mimoko could tell she was in for a humiliating makeover, but not even she could have predicted just HOW humiliating it would truly be.
