A Keychain of Girls

Chapter 1 - The Keychain

Danny sighed and looked around his room. He was going on four days without sleep now. It was after dinner time and he was just sitting in his room thinking. His life had gone consistently downhill in the past two weeks. His father and his sister passed away within a week of each other. Being a senior in high school, he could bottle himself up and push on. His mother however couldn't. So she bottled her emotions in another way. Over the last week, she had become a moping drunk. She had barely left her bed in four days, constantly drinking and mindlessly watching television. She only got out of bed for more liquor or to use the toilet. It was really starting to get to Danny.

They lived in a small two bedroom apartment. Danny had been sharing his room with his fourteen year old sister. Now he was in there alone. His mother never went to her bedroom anymore. She had dragged her futon mattress into the main room and had stayed there.

Three days now with naught but a few minutes of sleep. Danny couldn't take it much longer.

"D...Danny!" His mother Jen cried from the living room.

"Yes mother...?" Danny sighed, walking out there.

"We're...we're out of whiskey..." Jen hiccuped, "Go to...to the store and get some more."

"Mother, I can't buy alcohol, I'm not old enough." Danny sighed.

"Lie to 'em. Who cares...just go get some more whiskey." Jen said, turning back to the television.

She was a relatively young woman, only thirty six. Skinny, with long beautiful legs, she had an ample C cup chest and breast length brown hair. Danny's father had fallen for her like a lumberjack falls a tree. However, Danny got his father's looks and short black hair. However, right now her hair was a mess, her face was flushed and she reeked of liquor. Her clothes were dirty and old, she hadn't changed in days.

"I can't do that mother." Danny said, "However, you have a bottle of Sake in here."

He pulled a white bottle out of the fridge and handed it to her.

"Oh...yay...I like Sake." She hiccuped and took a long pull from it. She rolled onto her side, facing away from him to watch television. She was propped up on one elbow.

"What am I going to do with you?" Danny sighed, sitting down behind her.

He grabbed a comb from the kitchen table and started to brush out the knots in her hair. Danny loved his mother dearly and it hurt him to see her like this. However, losing her husband and only daughter so close together almost killed her.

"Would you cut that...that out!" Jen said, turning to look back at him.

"But mother, if you let yourself go like this..." Danny said, "At least go take a shower."

"For what? So that I can leave the house and...and...*Hiccup*...lose you too?" Jen cried, slapping the lid on the Sake bottle.

She dropped it and threw her arms hysterically around Danny's neck.

"I can't lose you too!" She cried loudly, tears running down her cheek.

"You won't mother." Danny said, wrapping his arms around her, "I'll always be here for you."

"You're...You're such a wonderful son!" Jen balled, moving closer to him.

She fell forward and landed on top of him. Danny sighed and ran his hand calmingly down the back of her head. Jen hid her face in his neck and cried loudly.

"You're such a...a good boy...so nice...and strong...and..." Jen pushed herself up with her hands on his chest. She straddled his waist. Her face was flush and she was smiling now. She bent over him and put her hands on his face.

"Mom, you're drunk." Danny said, pushing her back up.

"I'm not as think as you drunk I am!" Jen hiccuped loudly.

"Come on mom, you need to collect yourself." Danny said, trying to sit up.

"Who...who said you could go anywhere..." Jen stuttered, "I'm not through with you...strong man..."

"Mom!" Danny said, realizing what she was doing.

"I love you so much." Jen said, unbuttoning her shirt.

"Mother! I'm your son!" Danny said, starting to freak out.

"Come on! It would be good for both of us..." Jen smiled, tossing her shirt away. She wasn't wearing any bra. Danny blushed slightly at the sight of his mother's ample breasts.

"No mother! It's wrong, get off me!" Danny pushed her.

She fell back onto her bed and laughed loudly.

"Such a...a strong man! I'm getting really hot!" Jen said, squirming herself out of her sweat pants. She wasn't wearing panties either. He couldn't help but notice that she was completely hairless from the waist down.

"Mother!" Danny said, getting up.

"Really...hot..." Jen sighed, turning onto her side.

She curled up, her sweatpants around her knees.

"Mom..." Danny sighed, stepping over to her.

She hiccuped loudly and curled her arms under her head. Danny knelt down next to her and wrapped his arms under her shoulders and legs. He grunted and picked her up. She sighed and tiredly cuddled her head up against his chest. He was lucky that she was so skinny because Danny wasn't really that strong of a boy. Jen's pants fell off and Danny carried his naked mother into the bathroom. He carefully set her down in the bathtub and rested her head gently against the back edge of the tub.

Turning on the hot water, he filled the tub half full and turned it off. Grabbing the rag, he filled it with soap and started to wash Jen. She was unconscious the whole time as Danny scrubbed her. He carefully washed her nether region and Jen gave a sigh and a moan. Finishing her long slender legs, he rinsed her off and grabbed the shampoo.

"Mom...I wish you would get yourself together..." Danny sighed, starting to wash her long hair.

*******

Jen was washed and in clean panties. He put her in his bed while he went and washed her alcohol soaked bed linens. It was hard for him to keep up with everything in the apartment, but he was managing. Luckily enough, Danny's father's family had left them around fifty million yen. While not entirely a fortune, it was more than enough for Danny and his mom to live for six or seven years and still have enough for Danny to go to College.

He came back from the apartment laundromat a half an hour later with a basket of sheets. Jen was still sleeping soundly in Danny's bed. He smiled and remade her bed. For the first time since her daughter's death, Jen looked clean and at peace. Danny uncovered her and picked her up gently. She wrapped her arms tiredly around his neck and nuzzled up to his chest. He put her back in her bed and tucked her in. She was reluctant to let him go, but he pulled her arms off and pulled the blankets up over her.

"At least you can sleep." Danny said, turning to the door, "I'll be back soon mom."

*******

Danny raised an eyebrow at the dark little store on the corner. It was new and there were no signs outside. He opened the door and stepped inside. A strong incense met his nose and he cringed slightly.

"Good afternoon." The ancient looking man behind the counter said.

"Interesting store you have." Danny said, looking around at the walls.

"Well, to one as troubled as you, I doubt it makes much of an impact." The old man said.

"What?" Danny said, walking over to him.

"Oh...I was just noticing the aura around you...it's horribly troubled." The old man said.

"You've no idea." Danny chuckled.

"I have something that could help you sleep." The old man said.

"Wh...how do you know about that?" Danny said.

"I know a lot about you Danny." The old man smiled, digging behind the counter.

"And now you know my name...this is a little creepy..." Danny said.

"Here...keep this close by and I can guarantee you a night sleep tonight." The old man held out a wood box.

"For free?" Danny raised an eyebrow.

"Well...I want to help you...so...a thousand yen." The old man smiled.

"Okay...I'll try it." Danny said, digging in his pocket.

He paid the man and opened the box. Inside was a keychain with three small figures hung from it.

"It's just a keychain..." Danny said, looking at the figures, all three were anime looking girls.

"Just trust me." The old man smiled, "Oh and take this to your mother. This one is free."

He held out a bottle of whiskey.

"Ooookay..." Danny said, taking the bottle.

He walked back home, a little creeped out.

*******

"Who's that?" His mother asked suddenly as he walked in.

"It's only me mother." Danny said.

"Hi Danny." She said, turning back to the television.

"Are you doing better mom?" Danny asked, walking over to her.

"I could use a drink." She said, "Is that whiskey?"

"Yes." Danny sighed, holding out the bottle.

"Oh goody!" She said, taking it from him.

"I'm going to try and get some sleep mother..." He sighed, walking to his room.

"G...G'night son!" She said before taking a drink of whiskey.

He sighed and undressed. The Keychain rattled in his pocket and he took it out.

"I bet that old man just swindled me." He sighed, wishing the keychain would really help.

He clipped it to the pull string for the blinds and fell into bed. His mind was still swirling around like a vortex and he couldn't figure out how a keychain would help. Sighing, he pulled up the blankets and curled up with his pillow.

Before too much longer, he actually fell asleep.

Chapter 2 - The Girls

Danny yawned and tried to stretch. Someone was cuddled up to him with their arms wrapped around him. He was only too aware of soft bare breasts pressed up against his arm. He looked over and sighed. His mother was mostly naked and cuddled up close to him. He sighed and wriggled out of her arms. Sitting up on his knees, he looked down at his drunk mother. She must have drank the entire bottle of whiskey and then worked her way in here. He was so exhaused and slept so soundly that he had never noticed her slipping into his bed. At least that's all she had done. She was only wearing the yellow panties that Danny had put on her yesterday.

"You have a gorgeous mother." A girls voice sounded out in the room.

"Who's there?!" Danny spun around, looking for someone.

"Down here dummy!" Another girl called.

"What?" He looked over at his bed side stand.

"Over here cutey-pie." A spunky third girls voice said.

Three little girls were waving to him from atop his alarm clock where they sat. Each were about five inches tall. His jaw dropped when he saw them. The three girls from the old man's keychain were sitting there waving happily. The first was a girl who looked mid twenties with exceptional D cups and long crimson hair that fell about her backside. She wore a full length dress and a white apron. The second was a girl who looked about Danny's age. She wore a pleated skirt and a purple top. She had long black hair that fell in her face and A computer sat in her lap. Large round glasses sat on her nose. The third was a girl with a long fluffy blonde fox tail and ears. Dirty blonde hair fell to her neck. She only wore a tight yellow top and short pink shorts that were cut low in the back to accommodate her tail that grew from the base of her spine.

"What...?" Danny stuttered in disbelief.

"What's wrong cutey, never seen a fox girl before?" The fox girl said standing up. She blew him a kiss and smiled deviously.

"Oh stop being so mean. We're the sprites of the Keychain. I'm April, the computer girl is Chiu and the foxy one is Koto." The older one said, giving Koto a smack on the arm.

"Grrr..." Koto growled, clenching her fists by her sides.

"Down puppy." Chiu said, prodding Koto in the side.

Koto barked loudly and leaped on Chiu. Chiu managed to get her computer on top of the alarm clock before Koto barreled her to the ground. Chiu fought back courageously, however the fox girl was too spirited for her. A minute later, Chiu was lying face down with Koto sitting on her back.

"Koto, get off her." April said with a cold tone of seriousness.

Koto sighed and stood up before helping Chiu back to her feet. Chiu sighed and blew some hair out of her face.

"Are...are you real...or am I hallucinating from lack of sleep?" Danny stuttered, crouching down to get a better look at them, "You sure are tiny."

"I'll show you tiny." Koto cried, taking a running leap off the table.

She suddenly grew into a full size girl and tackled Danny to the ground. Danny could see now that she had yellow eyes and long fangs in her mouth. She growled loudly and bared her fangs. Danny screamed and tried to shove her off, however she had too good of grip on him. She moved closer to his face, her fangs bared and at the last second when it seemed she would tear out his throat, she kissed him on the lips.

"Ha ha! I had you going good!" Koto said, jumping to her feet as Daniel sat up, "We're sprites, just because we're small sometimes doesn't mean we can't be normal sized!"

Danny made a squeaking sound and fell over backwards, fainting.

"Koto...You made him faint." April sighed.

*******

"Danny...Danny...honey wake up." His mother's voice brought him back to consciousness.

"M...Mom?" Danny said, looking up at her, "Ohh...I had the strangest dream..."

"A dream about us?!" Koto called from her seat on Jen's shoulder

"Aaaaaahhhh!" Danny screamed, scrabbling backwards.

He backed himself up against the wall. April, Koto and Chiu were all sitting on Jen's shoulder.

"What are you screaming about?" Jen asked.

"Them!" Danny cried, pointing at the girls.

"Ohh...hello there! I know I've got a bad hangover when I start thinking there are tiny girls sitting on my shoulder. I think I need another drink." Jen walked out of the room. The three girls slipped down her hair and fell onto the bed.

"What are you three?" Danny said, poking at Chiu.

"We're sprites. I know it's a little strange, but we're quite real." April said, "Now, do you mind if we return to your size?"

Danny nodded and the three tiny girls grew into three full sized girls sitting on his bed.

"You are real..." Danny said, prodding Chiu's leg.

"Please don't poke me." Chiu said.

"Sorry." Danny said, sitting back on the floor.

"It's understandable." Chiu sighed, clicking away on the laptop on her lap.

"Chiu, put it away please." April asked kindly.

"Fine." Chiu said, snapping it closed. She set it on the bed behind her.

"So, you're our new master. I need to explain a few rules on being in such a position." April said.

"Master?" Danny said in disbelief.

"Yes, you now own us. You bought us from our previous master. That means that you now get to do with us what you will." Chiu said.

"To a certain extent." April said, "There are three rules. Rule one, you cannot ask us to kill or permanently harm anyone for you. Rule two, you must keep the knowledge that we are sprites a secret from everyone except your immediate family. Rule three, you are responsible for our wellbeing. If you break any of these rules, we will return to being a normal keychain until you pass us on."

"So...does this mean that you're...like my maids now or what?" Danny said, trying to figure it out.

"Well, if that's what you want us to do, sure. We could be your maids." April said, "I enjoy cleaning and cooking."

"What else are you here for then?" Danny said, "The old man just told me that you would help me sleep. Well, I did sleep pretty good last night..."

"Oh ho...now it's getting into my area of expertise." Koto smiled, grabbing the bottom of her shirt.

She pulled it off and her perky C cups fell free. She moved closer to Danny and put her hands on his waist.

"W...What're you doing?!" Danny yelled, jumping back.

"You said you needed help sleeping...I'm pretty good at making a man sleep." Koto smiled, moving closer to him.

"Wait...you mean...Oh no! That's not what I meant...Whoa Whoa! Put your clothes back on please!" Danny cried, dodging away from her.

"Koto, it's obvious that he's still a virgin. Put your clothes back on." Chiu said, tossing Koto her top.

"Okay fine...but I'm still gonna want something out of this." Koto sighed, putting her top on.

"Yes, and I'll help with that...Just don't go driving our master out the door." April sighed.

"I'm going to go have breakfast." Danny said hurriedly leaving the room.

"Oooh! I could go for some breakfast!" Koto chased after him.

"I'll cook it!" April said happily.

"Oh my sisters..." Chiu sighed, shaking her head.

*******

April hummed happily as she worked around the kitchen making breakfast. She knew everything that her image portrayed. She was a motherly character that loved to cook and clean and was excellent at both. April had insisted that Danny sit down and stay out of the way as she worked. Koto was stretched out on the floor and Chiu sat across from Danny at the table. Jen was out cold in her bed.

"So...can I ask about your past?" Danny said, looking at Chiu, "Where exactly did you come from?"

"We were created by a wizard about five hundred years ago. Ever since then, we've swapped from master to master every couple of decades. We are immortals bound by incantations to that keychain hanging from your curtains." Chiu explained, "As you see, April is the home maker and quite the chef. I am a writer and human library. I've spent the last five hundred years reading and writing and learning everything I can. As for Koto...well...she's just Koto. Born a fox-girl, she has a natural fiery spirit and quite the affinity for... intimacy."

"Oh come on Chiu, just say it. I loooove a good hard fuck!" Koto said, stretching out on the ground, looking at them upside down.

"Eloquent as always dear sister." Chiu sighed, "Anyway, You've heard the rules, other than that...you can really ask us to do anything."

"Anything?" Danny said, raising an eyebrow.

"Exactly...I remember one guy about two hundred years ago who had a sex drive like...a freaking train. He plowed us nightly for months." Chiu said, "I think it sucked honestly...Koto was the only one having a good time."

"Oh and that guy a hundred years ago who made us his librarians for sixty years was a good gig?" Koto said, "At least with that sex fiend, I was always having orgasms..."

"I liked the librarian...he let me cook for him all the time." April said.

"You two are so boring." Koto said, rolling over onto her stomach.

"You are all loud...god...my head hurts...I wish I had a drink." Jen moaned, rubbing her head.

"How am I going to explain you three to her when she's sober?" Danny asked, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"Tell her the truth. We said that your immediate family was allowed to know about us. I think she's a woman who would enjoy having some help around the house. Someone to clean up the house and make the meals." April said, "I'd be happy to help your mom!"

She walked over to the kitchen table and set down sizzling eggs and vegetables in a large pan.

"You know...I'm not a total vegetable when I'm hung over..." Jen muttered, getting to her feet, "I can listen to what you're saying...and your right...I would like the truth..."

"Your son bought us from our last master and now we're his." April said, dishing up a plate for Jen, "He's our master and we do whatever he asks."

"He's a pubescent boy...I'm afraid of what he might ask..." Jen sighed, digging into the food.

"Hey, if he asks for that, it's okay with me!" Koto said happily.

"Don't go ruining my little boy." Jen said, smacking Koto.

"Who says it would ruin him?" Koto smiled, baring her fangs.

"I need a drink." Jen got up from the table and opened the fridge. She pulled out the half bottle of Sake and took a long pull from it, "Aaaahhh...That's the stuff."

"Um...Ms. Jen...should you be drinking that so early in the morning?" April asked, looking up at Jen.

"Miss Jen...Miss Jen...I used to be a missus!" She yelled, taking another drink, "I miss you so much John!"

She downed the last of the bottle and sank to her knees in front of the sink, crying loudly. Danny jumped to his feet.
