Daryl didn't even realize he had entered Det. Howard's office. The quick glimpse into the eyes of Cassandra had made everything go topsy turvy. He was sort of on automatic pilot. He knew she had some kind of irresistible hypnotic power. His time with the Charmed Ones was enough to tip him off to that. Even though his body kept moving closer to her, Daryl Morris was preparing his mind for a fight.

Daryl mustered up the strength to speak, "You're some kind of witch, or demon. Jeff, get out of here, she's hypnotized you. We have to get out, she's a demon!", he said, still looking lustfully at Cassandra. Det. Jeff Howard become upset, "Morris, you son of a bitch, you have the privilege to be of assistance to Cassandra, and you have the audacity to call her names?!! I ought to shoot you right here!", he said, then he actually reached for his gun.

"Shhh, relax Jeffy", Cassandra soothed, "Daryl, come into my eyes.", she directed gently. Daryl had no choice, he melted into her eyes, "That's better. Now sit down", she commanded, again he obeyed. "I know what you're doing and I'm going to fight you" Cassandra laughed, "Really? We'll see. Detective, I want you to look deeply into my eyes. Look deeply into my eyes and realize how relaxed you become. Staring deep into my eyes relaxes you and makes you

feel soo good, soo wonderful. My voice invades your mind like a mist of pleasure. You feel so wonderful right now Detective. You know you are supposed to fight, but you can't remember why.", Cassandra said. Daryl was starting to druel. Mary looked on with a smile as her mistress easily dominated the man. Her smile quickly turned to shock when she heard, "Detective, you are free to leave now if you want to". Why would Cassandra say that? Why not just finish

taking him to the point of absolute control? Mary watched as Daryl started to stir. He hadn't gotten up yet. She could see the struggle he was going through internally. He knew deep down he should leave, but being near Cassandra felt so good. It was like she was a drug that he was instantly addicted to. After what looked like a few attempts to get up, it became clear that Daryl wasn't going anywhere. He just kind of sank into his seat, waiting for another hit of the

hypnotic drug that had already redefined what he thought was ecstasy. "That's my good boy Detective", Cassandra affirmed, "you've made the right choice. Melt back into my eyes now. That's it....goood...you've decided that this is where you want to be, this is where you belong, now listen to my words as I bring you deeper into my power" Mary was again amazed at her mistress. By giving

Detective Morris the choice to leave, she had him consciously break his own will. Making it his decision not to fight her. Mary was wet with admiration of Cassandra's hypnotic prowess. Within a few short moments, Daryl's eyes were closed. He was drifting in a sea of hypnotic submission. Cassandra worked fast but accurately. She brought Daryl to the point of which he could never resist her will again. In another stroke of genius, she continually

referred to him as "Detective". "Detective, you are falling deeper and deeper into a hypnotic sleep....Detective, you have no will to resist me, my will is your will" and so on. This served to put the other man in the room who went by Detective under even further than he already was. When Cassandra was convinced that she had enslaved the two members of San Francisisco's finest, she got to the point. "Detective, we have much to do to ensure that I reach

my full glory. First of all. It is essential that I capture Pru Haliwell. Daryl, can you get in touch with Pru?" "Yes. She let me know where she was hiding so I could help her" "You will help her by delivering her to me. Do you understand" "Yes Cassandra" "Good boy Daryl, good boy", Cassandra said. She planned to deliver Pru to Mesmotto as a parting gift.

Faith and Buffy had been rummaging through Farmingdales for a couple hours. Faith was really loving it. Buffy had stopped trying on outfits about a half hour ago. She a little annoyed that they hadn't gotten to the fur section yet, since that was what Buffy was really looking forward too. In the meantime however, watching Faith trying on all these swimsuits wasn't so bad. Buffy was enjoying the show, but felt it was time to

discuss something with her new partner in crime. "What do you think? I like the glasses, but I don't like the idea of covering up my eyes, you know what I mean?", Faith said "Yeah sweetie, you look hot...Faith...what's next?", Buffy asked seriously. "Well, I got a couple more things I want to show you here, then we can go play with the furs. I know that's what you've been after this whole time...", Faith said, thinking she had diagnosed the reason behind Buffy's tone. "That sounds great, but it's not really what I meant.", Buffy said. Faith grabbed a red outfit and started changing into it. "What do you mean then?", she asked. "Well. With our new powers, and our old powers, we are pretty much the most powerful forces in Sunnydale"

"Yeah, it's pretty sweet, isn't it?", Faith agreed, "So is this number, huh?", she added, modeling the red swimsuit for Buffy. "Absolutely...to both. But, don't you think we should do something with all this power?" "Oh no, don't tell me you want to go back to the hero deal already, I thought I cured you of that", Faith griped. "Don't worry, that's not quite what I had in mind"

"What do you have in mind then?", Faith said, as she continued to dance and parade around in front of Buffy and the mirror. "I don't know, but something more than putting two guards to sleep so we can have an all night shopping spree at freakin' Farmingdales.", Buffy said. If Faith hadn't been so into watching herself wiggle around, she might have noticed the annoyed tone in Buffy's voice. "Do you want to f*ck the guards?", Faith asked, actually thinking that might be what Buffy was after. "No, well... maybe, but that's not what I mean." "Spit out B", Faith said "I don't know, let's build an empire or something"

"Grrrr", growled Faith playfully with a string of pearls, "Empress Faith... I could get into that" Buffy laughed, Faith was so cute, "Yeah, me too" "So do you want to go start right now?", Faith asked, "Cuz, I was thinking, since we're here, we might as well finish shopping" "I agree, we'll need some help carrying all this stuff our of her. Maybe those two sleepy heads down here can be two of our first royal subjects", Buffy said. "Sounds great, let's go find something fitting of two

empresses.", Faith added, indicating that it was finally time to go to the fur section Buffy had been dying for. While the two girls were there, they again decided to show their appreciation for each other...sexually. About an hour later, they were back on the first floor where the guards were left sleeping. The girls were all glammed out, and looked like the empresses they planned to be. "Boys, can you hear us?", Faith asked the two sleeping guards in front of them. The men sort of grunted in agreement. "Good, boys, the slumber you are in is a deep hypnotic slumber we induced. In this deep sleep you are completely receptive to all our suggestions....", Buffy told the men. She and Faith continued to reconfigure the mens minds to their liking. The men were not especially strong to begin with, so it only took a moment. It was inspiring for the two slayers though. It showed them they could easily control mortals.
