    When Blue had decided to go the magic show, she hadn't anticipated becoming part of it. And yet, in the middle of the show, when the magician Ariel proclaimed she needed an assistant from the audience, someone adventurous, the spotlight seemed magnetically drawn towards Blue. Ariel's eye lit up when she saw Blue, summoning her up to the stage with a devilish smile on her lips. It was apropos, Blue thought, that what she was wearing could already work for a magicians assistant, though that certainly wasn't what she had in mind when she picked it out. She was wearing a black miniskirt which stopped just above her knees, below which was a pair of dark blue leggings, her feet covered by a pair of shin-high combat boots. Over her torso was a custom leather jacket, shorter than most, stopping just below her ribs. With metal studs on the shoulders and cuffs, the jacket gave off a Gothic vibe; and her shirt also did as well. That was a black and blue  navel bearing corset, which was quite low-cut too, giving a pleasant hint of cleavage. Currently a shy smile spread across her triangular face, her pixie cut hair giving her nothing to hide behind. It was from the latter she got her nickname of Blue, as her hair was dyed a brilliant shade of azure.
    As she stepped up on the stage, Blue felt her heart racing. It was quite strange to be pulled out of the audience, as she genuinely had never met the magician before; so she wasn't a plant. Perhaps she was just going to be one part of the act, maybe hold an assistant's legs. That didn't sound so bad actually...
Ariel smiled mischievously as she led Blue into the center stage, her exuberance helping to abate Blue's own trepidation. "Welcome to my stage, dear, I'm sure this will be a night you'll never forget! Before we begin, tell us your name, as it would be rude to do anything to you without knowing at least that."
To me? Blue thought warily. Just a turn of phrase, surely she meant nothing by it. Right? "Just call me Blue." She said softly.
"Mm, what a lovely voice you have, its like honey. Now, to begin, let's get rid of this jacket of yours, don't want anything to it."
Blue discarded the jacket as instructed, her trepidation waxing and waning, curiosity rising. From stage left she saw the assistants bring out something strange; a small wall, less than six feet tall, and only four feet wide. Behind it was a hydraulic contraption, connected to the upper part. On the front were four leather straps, two at the top, tow at the bottom. At the right side there was a lever which connected to the hydraulics. Blue suddenly had a very bad feeling about what was going to happen.
    "We've all seen the sawing a woman in half magic act, but, tonight, you'll see it like you never have before!" Ariel declared to the audience, "And now, with the help of my volunteer Blue, I shall show you my personal take on this classic act!"
Two assistants came up on either side of Blue, taking her by the arms and leading her towards the wall. She was placed with her back against the wall, and then her arms were placed above her head and into the leather straps. Her legs, too, were strapped to the wall, leaving her with no way to move, and no chance of escape. She squirmed against the bindings, but quickly gave up. Once more her heart was racing. An assistant went up to Ariel and haded her a handheld circular saw, which the magician held up fr the crowd to see. She stepped over to Blue, raising the saw to her body, directly below her navel. "There will be no boxes, curtains, smoke or mirrors, friends. Right at this point on Blue's body is where I shall cut, and with this saw it won't take long at all. Now, I warn you all, this may not be the cleanest sawing you've ever seen. It will, in fact, be a little gruesome."
    Blue gulped at this and squirmed again. This wasn't actually going to happen, she wasn't actually going to be sawed in two. With a dramatic flourish, Ariel started the saw, the blade whirring to life. Ariel turned towards Blue, winked at her, and brought the saw towards her body. First she felt the rush of air against her bare skin, then she felt pain explode as the saw bit into her, eagerly slicing into her skin and flesh, the silver steel quickly gaining a touch of red. Blue screamed as the saw cut deeper and deeper into her, the pain almost too much to bear. Then the saw saw touched her spine, and for a moment she couldn't see anything, couldn't even think. It felt like it took hours for Ariel to saw her in half, but in truth, it only took a few seconds. And then, just like that, it was over. Blue was breathing heavily, her chest rising and falling. She was aware of a warm liquid around the sight of the cut, the same stuff which was dripping off the saw. Ariel handed the saw off to an assistant and stepped near the wall, putting her hand on the lever, and then she dramatically pulled the lever.
    Blue let out a short scream, this one of surprise, when the top of the wall started moving upwards, taking her bisected upper half with it. The audience gasped too, though Blue didn't know why just then. The wall rose three feet and stopped. Blue looked down in shock, unable to believe that her legs were currently separated from the rest of her. She craned her head, just able to see her legs, see the blood, and, strangely, something dangling from her upper half. Ariel stepped over just then, putting a hand between the two halves and lifting up a strand of Blue's guts. "Give it up for our gutsy assistant!" She cried. Blue let out a soft moan of pain as a tingling sensation up her top half. Did this feel...good? She was bloody, in two pieces, her guts hanging out, and she thought she felt just a touch of pleasure? No, it was the lights and the sheer insanity of what had just happened. Not real pleasure, not from this...
    "Now say goodnight to our brave volunteer!" Blue was shaken out of her thoughts by what Ariel said. Goodbye? But she was still in two pieces! But, before she could protest, the wall was being wheeled away, vanishing off stage right while the audience applauded.
