Shoplifting short story

Shade Tail · Feb 12, 2008

This wasn't written by me, but I think it's cool :D

A woman intent on shoplifting wanders the mall looking for a good place to snag stuff from. She doesn't intend to pawn the goods that she swipes or really gain anything of value; she just loves taking things. Unfortunately, even with her trusty trench coat, just about every place has visible security measures in place.

Then she finds an odd store, one that claims to sell items of power and intrigue from around the world and created by the owner. She doesn't much care about that, but many of the things for sale are small, shiny, and best of all, there are no apparent security devices anywhere.

Quietly filling the coats interior pockets with trinkets, she stealthily makes her way out the door. She thinks she's in the clear, but can't help feeling that something is wrong. People are looking at her and the mall looks larger than she remembered, but she can't figure out why.

What she doesn't realize is that by leaving the store without paying, she's set off a magic alarm that will shrink her down to to 8% of her normal size to make her easier to apprehend and detain, and that she will be unable to realize this is happening until she inevitably trips on her own relatively huge clothes, which is bound to happen any second now.

Let this be a lesson to all: just because you can't see security measures doesn't mean they're not there :3
