Sarah had had a high fever and flu for over a week now, but she was determined to babysit for the Taylor family. Their parents had a one week vacation planned and Sarah had no choice but to spend three days babysitting the Mr. and Mrs.Taylor's kids. It was kind of a last minute thing that the Taylors had pulled on her, with Sarah not having any large priorities over the March break. There was really no way that Sarah could have turned down the offer to babysit for the Taylors without being rude and the money in the job was good so she ended up babysitting for them. Not that they were bad kids. It was just that Sarah would only be able to put enough energy into her job to feed the kids, get them ready for bed and be ready if a dangerous situation around the house were to occur.

Three days was a lot of time to be over at a family's house, but the parents never demanded much from babysitters. The kids were very capable of entertaining themselves so long as they had some kind of object to keep themselves busy. The youngest of the three boys, Jamie (7 years), was of average height and build for his age, and had brown hair. Dan (8 years) was slim with dirty blond hair. Johnny (10 years) was of average height and had an excellent build for someone his age. Johnny being the oldest was the leader of the three boys and was also the one who introduced them to the idea of bondage. Sarah had seen their rope collection before and even Johnny tie her arms behind her back for a couple of minutes. Today however she was too ill to participate in any of their tie up games.

Upon arriving at the house on that freezing March day, Sarah was greeted by the three boys and their parents.

"Thanks for babysitting them for us.'' Exclaimed Mrs.Taylor. "We have another babysitter who will be here to relieve you within three days."

Sarah spent the first hour at the Taylor's house watching television with the boys, before she began to feel ill and went to the guestroom in the confines of the basement. If the boys needed anything they could come and get her.

Sarah spent the next five hours vomiting, on the toilet or in bed. She was feeling too dizzy to realize the kidnapping that was going on above her.

Johnny knew that Sarah would not mind him having a friend over for the night, so long as they did not cause her any trouble. Johnny did however have a plan in mind for a boy across the street, Peter, whose parents were very lenient and would have no objections to Peter spending the night at the Taylor's house. Peter was nine years old with brown hair and already was beginning to develop a very muscular build. He was a little bit shorter than Johnny and about ten pounds lighter, with good looks and blue eyes. He had an easygoing as well as very innocent personality which would be perfect for what Johnny had in mind for the 3 boys to do to him.

Johnny called Peter's house.

"Hello?" Answered Peter's mom.

"Oh hi Mrs.Helmsly, it's Johnny."

"Oh would you like me to get Peter on the phone for you?"

"Sure".

Mrs.Helmsly got Peter on the phone.

"Hey John what's up?"

"I was just wondering if you wanted to stay at our house overnight. Our stupid babysitter is sick, so we pretty much have the entire house to ourselves."

Peter's mom agreed to let him stay over to the Taylor's house. Perfect thought Johnny. Peter will be getting way more than he expected.

Peter arrived at the Taylor's house with a sleeping bag, pygamas, pillow, toothbrush and a walkman. Johnny knew Peter wouldn't be needing this for a while, if ever, as he snatched it from his hands and handed it to Jamie who went upstairs and hid it from Johnny.

"Hey what are you doing?" Protested Peter.

"You'll see." Replyed Johnny.

Johnny led Peter to the living room. He motioned for Jamie and Dan to close the curtains.

"Get the ropes out." Ordered Johnny.

Upon hearing this Johnny began to get very excited. He had been tied up twice by the Taylors before, once hogtied with his hands behind his back and the other time to the bed. Both times he had been left tied for two hours-combining to make the best four hours of his life. Little did he know that this was going to be a much more extreme tie up game.

When the bag of ropes was brought out from a cabinet Peter started to back away. They couldn't tie him up with all of those ropes! They couldn't! Had it not been for Peter's trusting personality he would have bolted out of the house at that instant. Instead he stood there unaware of what was going to happen to him and Johnny grabbed him around the legs, took him down so that his back was against the ground, sat on his stomach and pinned Peter's arms to the ground. Peter being strong was able to press upwards against Johnny's grip on his wrists and almost wrestling Johnny off of him. Johnny ordered Jamie and Dan to help keep Peter pinned down. Jamie and Dan gripped Peter's wrists and forearms with both hands and pressed them firmly, but not painfully, to the carpet. Johnny lowered his butt onto Peter's stomach and gripped Peter's stomach with his knees making sure that Peter could not twist his torso. With Peter pinned flat to the floor within a matter of ten seconds, there was absolutely no hope for escape no matter how hard Peter kicked and squirmed.

"What's going on guys?" Asked Peter in a panicky voice. He was beginning to like the suspense building up to their tie up game but was also a bit scared of what they might do to him. He was beginning to worry that they wouldn't let him up for a long time.

Johnny made sure Peter wouldn't be saying anything by removing a ball gag from his pocket and placing it inside Peter's mouth. It was professionally made, the ball was soft and fit perfectly into Peter's mouth. It came attached to a leather strap which Johnny fastened at the back of Peter's head. He then took five small metal clips which he fastened to the flap of leather at the back of Peter's head so that the gag would find no way to slip off. The gag was fastened tightly and Peter would not have been able to remove it even if his hands weren't pinned down.

"Try to call for help" Chuckled Dan.

It was hopeless. Only a tiny breathing noise could be heard from beneath Peter's gag.

"Now remember we tied you up before?" Asked Johnny.

Peter nodded his head.

"Well this time you will be tied much more tightly, in a different way, with much more rope and for a much longer time." Said Johnny. "You don't know what's in store for you."

With that Jamie grabbed some rope from the bag and went to Peter's legs. Dan pressed down more firmly on Peter's wrists and Johnny grabbed around Peter's firm forearms to keep him securely pinned down. Jamie then took off Peter's pants so that he could not slip out of his bonds. He then used a ten foot clothesline to bind Peter's ankles tightly, parallel to each other, but not so tight that his circulation could get cut off. Then he tied an eight foot clothesline below Peter's knees. He finished the job by tying a rope around the ropes around Peter's ankles and below his knees.

"Get the knee pads." Said Johnny, still firmly holding Peter on the ground.

Jamie disappeared upstairs and came back with a pair of adjustable kneepads that were used when Dan went skateboarding.

"Put them around his knees". Said Johnny. "Tighten them well, but make sure that his circulation doesn't get cut off."

Jamie did this.

"Now tie his knees together. With the kneepads there it won't be as painful." Johnny had it in mind to torture Peter later on and he knew from experience that it was painful to have one's knees bound together without some kind of protection.

Jamie tied Peter's knees extremely tight, knowing that he would not be cutting off his blood flow with the kneepads preventing this from happening. Then he tied just above Peter's legs and just below his crotch. Jamie's tying completely immobilized Peter's legs. It would take at least twenty minutes to untie all of those ropes without scissors.

"Okay now come around and hold his arm." Said Johnny.

Jamie came around to the other side of Peter and gripped one of his arms. Peter tried to escape but being pinned down by three boys his own size or bigger and having his legs so tightly bound made escape impossible. Johnny intended only to keep Peter pinned for a short time however.

"Remember we tied you with your arms behind your back before Peter?" Johnny asked.

Peter nodded.

"Well I have an even better way to tie you up this time. This time you will have absolutely no hope of untying your arms at all!"

Dan and Jamie were also curious to know Johnny's method to tie Peter up.

"More rope please Jamie."

Jamie got a six foot long clothesline and handed it to Johnny. Johnny then got Dan to hold Peter's arms in front of him, parallel to each other so that his wrists faced each other. Johnny then tied Peter's wrists tightly together. He then took another rope and tied the area just above Peter's elbows together. He then took another rope and tied it in between both those ropes. Peter's hands now had no hope of escape. Jamie then fetched a roll of duct tape. Johnny taped Peter's hands into fists, with the thumbs to the sides of the hands. How was Peter going to free his hands if his fingers were bound in tape?

Next the three of them stood Johnny up. Jamie held him up while Dan and Johnny bound Peter's already tied hands and forearms to his chest with his hands just below his chin. More and more rope was tied under, around, under, over, around Peter's arms and in front of Peter's chest. The end result was that Peter could not move his arms away from his chest. After this they tied rope around Peter's arms, pinning them to his sides.

"Now it's time for a crotch rope!" Announced Johnny.

Johnny then took a long rope, looped it around Peter's wrists and pulled hard through Peter's legs, up above his shoulders and back down to Peter's wrists with a determined yank. Peter groaned through his gag. Johnny then took another rope and this time tied it to Peter's wrists, above his shoulders, through his legs and back up to his wrists with another jerk. Now Peter could not move his hands up or down. Next he took a third rope and tied over Peter's shoulders and through his legs again. Finally he took a fourth rope and tied it around Peter's waist, securing the other three crotch ropes harnessing Peter's body. He then pulled rope after rope through Peter's legs, knotting and tightening the fourth crotch rope as he went along. The ropes caused Peter's erect penis to protrude even higher than before.

After the four crotch ropes had been applied, Johnny dropped Peter, fairly hard, to the floor. Then he sat on Peter's crotch and taped over the knots that were securely binding his arms together. As he did this Jamie taped over the knots holding the ropes around Peter's legs. Johnny held Peter's shoulders down to prevent him from struggling while Jamie tied rope around Peter's big toes. Next the balls of tape that were keeping Peter's hands in fists were tied together. The look on Peter's gagged face was a bit nervous but he still wasn't in shock for he trusted his friends wouldn't do anything to hurt or scare him.

Johnny did not have it in mind to hogtie Peter. Peter was going to be tied for a long time and being hogtied for too long could cause an injury to Peter, which was not what the three mischievous boys wanted to happen. Instead he got the two boys to hold Peter's legs against his bound arms, which were in front of his chest. Then he took more rope and tied it around Peter's arms, behind Peter, between his wrists, around behind his back again, in front of him, and he continued this process until he had Peter's upper and lower legs tied to Peter's arms and chest so that Peter was wrapped up in a ball of rope. There was no way that Peter was going to move with the ropes holding his legs against his arms so tightly tied, but Johnny was going to secure Peter even more tightly. He tied another rope under, over, around Peter's arms, thighs, calves and back. Then he told Dan and Jamie to hold Peter's feet close to his legs, which they did. As the let go of Peter to grab his ankles the three of them let Peter fall to the floor so that he was facing the ceiling. Then they tied rope around his legs and secured it around his ankles. This restricted the amount of movement that Peter could have with his feet.

The three of them had succeeding in completely immobilizing the helpless Peter. They had tied his legs in five places, tied his hands and above the elbows together and secured them to his chest. They had applied four crotch ropes, two of them preventing Peter from moving his hands up and down and the final one holding the first three crotch ropes in place. They had taped his hands into fists and tied them together. They had tied his big toes together. They had gagged him so that he didn't have a hope of removing the gag, let alone talking. He wouldn't have been able to remove it even if he had been untied, because the leather strap at the back was clipped and taped down. They had tied his feet so that they were facing his ankles further reducing his movement. Finally they had tied his thighs and calves to his arms and chest. But they were not finished yet.

Johnny went upstairs and came back with a cabinet from his bedroom. He had prepared it just for Peter's being tied up. It would fairly easily fit Peter's body and had four latches which could be locked and secured with pad locks. Inside of the box were 10 plastic hooks. Six of them were on three sides of the top of the cabinet, and the other four were on the bottom left and right sides of the cabinet.

The three boys went to work, putting the helpless Peter into the box. Then they took ten shorter ropes and tied each one to either Peter's arms, legs, or another rope that was keeping him tied. They tied these ropes to the hooks that were inside of the box. Peter tried to struggle but it was hopeless being as bound as he was at that moment. The ropes connected to the inside of the cabinet held Peter in place. Johnny then took some scissors and cut as many holes as he could in Peter's t-shirt- he didn't want it to get too hot inside of the box while Peter was gagged. After cutting holes in Peter's shirt they took soft earplugs and put them in both his ears. Then they put tape over his ears so that the plugs wouldn't fall out and to further reduce his hearing. Next they took a bandana and tied it tightly around Peter's head, then put 15 rolls of tape around his head to hold the bandana in place. By the time they were finished there was no way for Peter to undo the blindfold, even if he had not been tied. A look of panic came over Peter's face as the door to the cabinet closed and the four padlocks were applied keeping the door shut. The cabinet was skinny but was tall enough that Peter would be able to hold his head up and even bend it back a few inches.

The three boys pushed the cabinet into one corner of the room so that it fit in with its surroundings. Their irresponsible babysitter Sarah was now asleep in the guestroom and had no clue what had happened above her. The three boys hid all of the ropes and any other possible evidence that there was a tie up game going on in the house. Nobody would have guessed that there was a boy trapped inside of the box, a boy who had done nothing to deserve this treatment but had no choice but to accept his punishment.
