Life as a Penny
Note from author: This story is loosely based on and
influenced by the Penitatas universe. Some things are
similar to other penitatas stories and some are
different. Penitatas are adults rejuvenated into
children because of criminals acts warranting a
rejuvenate sentence. They get informally known as a
Penny. Though some writers with a strong anime influence
have spelt it, Penni. Some people do not like when
authors steal or are influenced by established
universes. Apologies if you think I have done this.
And now to the story:
It was the year 2029, and the politicians and wise men
and everyone who had a brain knew that it was time to do
something about the few people that thought they were
above the law. People were tired of paying taxes for a
prison service that did nothing but make criminals worse
when they came out. People were tired that some treated
the prisons like a hotel. People wanted a change.
Scientists and psychologists have been working on a new
punishment for decades. The goal was to turn criminals
into model citizens. They presented their solution in 2021
in which shocked the politicians. The answer was easy… to
rejuvenate criminals back to children, where through
discipline and parental guidance, they would be bought up
to be model citizens. If this failed, they could always be
kept them as a child. At first politicians and the public
were speechless about the solution. However the limit was
reached, and when everyone thought about it, there had to
be pennies, as the rejuvenated criminals would be called.
The project was ready in 2024 and many criminals were now
rejuvenated
Louis heard about pennies, and he has even seen them.
However, it was far away from his mind. It happened to
others and not to him. He was on the wrong side of society
since he was a child. He would steal from shops and even
from his own mother that was powerless in raising him.
When he was a teenager, he would steal cars from the
neighbourhood. He tried a bit of everything in his career.
Louis didn’t think he was bad, as he never hurt anyone
because he never attacked or killed anyone. The crime was
the only thing that Louis knew. He was arrested several
times but this did not bother him. He met other
interesting people that taught him new ways of breaking
the law. This was until now. Louis sat in the court hall
once again after he tried selling drugs to a politician.
Louis just sat while the lawyers did their job, He was
thinking about how long he would be in jail. It didn’t
bother him as he could meet some old friends and even get
some proper food. At the end of the trial, the lawyers
were called up to the judge, where he talked with them.
Louis thought that this could mean a mistrial. The judge
used his hammer and said the trial was over. Louis was a
bit puzzled as this usually never happened. His lawyer
came back and Louis asked what happened. The Lawyer just
walked away.
Louis was led to a van. He shrugged his shoulders and
thought that he would be a few years in jail. However, he
noticed that the van was heading to the outskirts of town.
The van stopped outside a hospital, where Louis was put on
a stretcher or should I say he was tied to a stretcher. He
was rolled into the hospital to a special room. He laid
there for some time and noticed this strange machine that
looks like an incubator. Finally, a nurse came and with a
needle gave him a few shots. Louis was confused and the
only radical reason was to do some medical things before
he was locked away. The nurse put a mask on him and told
him to countdown. He was nearly asleep but he thought he
heard the nurse say “goodbye to your life”.
Louis woke up and felt very sleepy. He tried moving his
legs and hands. He was no longer tied to the stretcher,
which was strange. Then he saw a strange woman and strange
man stand next to him. They picked him up. This made Louis
wake up. He realised that his body shrunk. The nurse said
to say hello to his mother and father. Louis swore a lot
and told them that no way were they his parents. Then
“his” dad just sat down and he was over the stranger’s
knee. He started spanking Louis’ bum saying that he was
not to swear. The rejuvenated boy was doing the only
thing he knew how to, and that was to swear at the top of
his voice. This only made the man get mad and spank him
harder. Louis was never spanked by his mum when he was a
child. He would never have guessed that it hurt so much.
He quickly found out that the more he swore and said
anything, the longer he got spanked. Louis bit his teeth
and cried as hard as he ever did in his life.
After he was spanked, his so-called parents put me on a
chair. He could see himself in a mirror. He was half the
size that he was before. His hair was long. Louis had no
hair on his body and obviously didn’t have to worry about
shaving for many years to come. Louis looked at his
privates and nearly fainted when he saw how small it was.
The nurse then puts a collar on him. It was like a dog
collar and had the letter P on it. Louis tried to take it
off but it was locked on. His so-called mother sat down
and started explaining: “Louis, you may have noticed you
are the same size as a child. In fact, you are a child
once again and no longer have the rights of an adult. You
have been rejuvenated to a 9-year-old. We are your
parents. You may not like it, but you have to accept it or
there will be consequences. We will raise you up as our
own son, and make sure that you are a good citizen.
On the bright side, it appears as if you do not have a
bladder problem. So you do not need to be potty trained.”
“I never agreed to this” he shouted and protested
“You first best learn to speak with respect. No answering
back or shouting or you will find yourself over our knee
again. You are a penny because you have done crimes and
there was no hope for you. Now there is hope for you.”
“Why do I have to wear the collar? I am not a dog!”
“It has some technology that will help you adjust to your
new situation. Your body has just undergone some huge
changes. The collar will help you adjust to this.”
“Does it have a leash?”
“No son. Don’t worry about that”
“What about my hair. That is down to my shoulders?”
“We will get that cut when you get more settled in.”
“How old am I?”
“You are 9. Let’s go home son!”
9? Son? Louis wanted to scream and curse at them,
especially when they lifted him. Louis wanted to run away
but was weak after the ordeal of being made smaller. He
was put in a car while his mother was fastening his
seat-belt. Louis looked out the window and thought that
maybe if he played nice, they would stop this stupid idea
and return him back to his normal state. A year or two of
being a child again wouldn’t harm. Louis looked out the
window as they drove out of the city. They were now on the
outskirts with the same houses in a middle-class area.
Louis frowned when he saw his house. He was used to
excitement in his life. Now he would be living in a boring
suburb. He acted as a good boy. However, he nearly blew
his lid when he was told to go to bed at 9. It was hard
for Louis not to tell his new parents that he would go to
bed when he felt like. However, he slowly walked into his
bedroom and put on his new Spiderman Pajamas He felt a
grip on his shoulder and found himself on his father’s
knees once again. After another spanking, while being
reminded of his dad that he had to learn to be good, Louis
lay in his bed, sobbing and thinking to be good will be
harder than he thought. While he sobbed on the bed, his
mother came in and said, “You are being spanked as a
reminder to be good and for the crimes that you have
done. You will be spanked every day. Let’s hope that
you will learn how to be good now. The collar will send
some things to calm your brain and adjust it to the
changes, although it doesn’t work on some. In time you
will no longer think as an adult. It will help you forget
your bad ways and will you will learn how to be a better
person. You will always know you are a penny, but you will
not understand why you did the crimes you did. Look on the
bright side, they could have made you much younger, but
they decided there was no need. Consider yourself lucky,
as you do not have as many years, as there is no way they
can make you older again”
This made Louis mad, as it meant that he could get a
parole and this meant that he had to be a child and live
with these parents for many years to come. It also worried
him that the collar would make him forget who he was. No,
Louis would not fall into this trap. He would remind
himself all the time that he really was. This collar would
not change him.
The next week or so was hard both for Louis and his new
parents. He would not listen to them or do anything they
wanted. They expected him to do chores and to be polite
and nice all the time. This was hard for Louis to do. He
had total freedom a few weeks ago and now he was under the
strict routine of his parents. They had rules like he was
not to leave the house; he had to sit with them. He had to
call them Mum and Dad. Every time he didn’t, he would be
dragged over their knee, and his pants would be taken
down, where they would spank him which hurt just as bad
every time. After that, he would stand in the corner
bottomless. This was very embarrassing for Louis,
especially if there were guests. Louis was confused. Even
when he tried to be good, he was spanked when he woke up
with a spanking, to remind him he was a penny. Louis
decided that if he got spankings at any rate, even for
doing nothing, he might as well be a rebel.
After a few weeks of being a penny, Louis was taken to the
local park with his mother. It was boring as it could be.
His mother was talking to another woman that there has
been no progress with Louis. The other woman said to
increase the spankings. Louis thought she should be
spanked for coming with such a suggestion. He swore
beneath his breath and asked his mother if he could play.
Louis was shocked when his mother said yes. He walked
around the park. Maybe sitting on the swing would make
take his mind off of things. As Louis was on the way to
the swings, he seen a man getting up from a bench and
leaving the park. Louis didn’t care about this. He noticed
that the man left a pack of cigarettes and a lighter.
Louis quickly forgot the swings and snuck up and took the
cigarettes and lighter before the man looked back. He ran
into a playhouse and lit a cigarette. He was surprised
that he started coughing. His body must have forgotten
what it was like smoking. He was sitting there and
thinking that he was changing. He was forgetting more and
more what he done as an adult and was beginning to accept
more and more that he was a child. He was even considering
his parents as his right parents. He believed that even
the spankings were needed to help him be good. This must
be the collar that was working.
Then he heard some screaming. It was his mother. She was
saying that smoking is bad for him. She dragged him by his
hands over to the park bench and pulled down his trousers
and put him over her knee and spanked him. Louis was
embarrassed that everyone could see his pants down and his
mother spanking him so hard. To make things worse Louis
could not stop crying and screaming. He even promised that
he would never smoke again. This didn’t stop the spanking
and the pain that he felt in his bum. It was obvious that
his mother wanted him to learn a lesson. At last, she
stopped and was giving Louis a hug, as he promised never
to smoke again. It seemed as he was thankful for the
spanking which made his mother smile. Just as his mother
was about to pull up his trousers Louis seen a boy his age
laughing at him. This made him embarrassed at first, and
then mad. He leapt up from his mother and ran towards the
boy where he started punching him. The boy did stop
laughing and didn’t fight back. Louis let out all his
aggression that have been hidden inside and gave the boy
one punch after another punch. This was until his mother
and a policeman lifted Louis from the boy.
Louis mother took him home where he got spanked once
again. He was told to sit in a time-out chair until his
father came home. When this happened Louis has spanked
once again. In the end, Louis father held him in his lap
and said that the punishment was not over yet. Tomorrow
they would be going to penny court.
Louis was dressed up the next day as he entered the
special courtroom made especially for pennies. It was a
place that was hardly used. The prosecutor told the jury
that Louis has been difficult since he been a penny. He
did not understand why he was a penny. He did not show any
respect for his parents and had no remorse for what he has
done. Then the judge heard about the smoking and the
violence against the boy that had to go to the doctors
after. The defence tried to argue that it was a big change
for him to be rejuvenated. However, he now considered the
new parents as his parents. He now accepted being 9 and he
even accepted the spankings and understood they helped him
become better. The collar was beginning to work. The
incident with the smoking and the poor violence with the
boy was a relapse.
The judge looked a bit stern and started giving a huge
speech about how the penny system works with the most, and
it is obvious that Louis was obviously a rebel and they
made a mistake when I was rejuvenated. Louis smiled and
thought this meant that he would be returned to his old
self. His smile was not as big as it would have been weeks
before. He would miss his mother and father. Louis was in
the same van as he was the first time. He knew where he
was going. The centre with that big machine to change his
body. This time Louis put up no fight as they prepared
him.
Louis woke up after being rejuvenated. His mother was
washing him. At first, he thought this was embarrassing as
he suspected that he was an adult now. He looked down at
his body and, could see that he was still a child. In
fact, the more he looked, the smaller he was. He nearly
fainted when he saw a big difference. His boy’s part was
gone. Louis could feel the blood going to his head. His
mother started explaining as she was washing him. “It is
good that we did not cut your hair. You were rejuvenated
as a punishment. You are now 6 years old. There was a
mistake when you were rejuvenated that means you are now a
6-year-old girl. You can see that you have a girl’s body.
I know being rejuvenated has been hard for you. My advice
is for you is to accept it.” Louis’ dad came and commented
it looks like they now have a daughter. Louis knew better
not to swear at his father or he would be over his knee.
Louis just grunted and let them lift him.
He didn’t say a word until they came home. Louis rushed to
my room only to find it suddenly pink and pictures of
princesses on the wall. There was a dollhouse on the
floor. He was outraged while they said that they would let
him get accustomed to the room. They were calling him
Louisa and saying “her” and not “him”. For the sake of
this story, we will refer to our main character as Louisa
and a girl from now on. When her parents went out, Louisa
thought that she was now a girl. She looked around at the
pink walls, the dollhouse, and the teddy bears. It was
when she looked at her wardrobe and dresser, all she could
find was dresses and clothes with fairies and angels and
cute bears. Louisa went crazy and started throwing the
teddies and pillows across the room. She took a few of her
teddies and tore their heads off. Louisa started screaming
until her father came in. He grabbed the little girl by
the wrist and put her over his knee. He started telling
her that she had to accept that she was now a girl and she
was 6 years old. He was saying this as he was pulling down
her panties and then spanking her once again. Louisa cried
as she thought that spanking hurt just as much as it did
the first time. Her father warned her to get used to the
idea and to be an obedient child for once. Louisa begged
her father to stop and promised to be good. Her father did
when her bum was very red and sore. After that, he was
kind as he helped his daughter put some panties on and a
frilly white and pink nightdress. Louisa was sulking as
she started tidying up her room. She had a thought that it
will be hard being a six-year-old girl.
The next few days went with Louisa trying to get used to
her new life as a 6-year-old girl. She knew that every
time she tried to rebel that she would be put over
someone’s knee. This would be someone’s hand or even a
paddle on her bum that was bare. In the first few days,
Louisa tried to act like a little girl. She tried to look
amazed at the frilly dresses, the lacy panties and the
tights. Louisa smiled as she tried them on. It was all an
act, and her parents knew this and once in a while spanked
her as they said that she should not be lying.
However, Louisa was beginning to think less and less about
her situation. After a few weeks, of being spanked and
wearing the special collar, she was starting to forget
that she once was a boy and never thought she was a man.
She started to really think that the dresses were pretty.
She loved playing with dolls. She loved when her long hair
was being brushed. Within a few weeks, Louisa was well on
her way of thinking as a girl. The collar that she was
wearing was calming the rebel side of her and helping her
accept her fate. Her parents were happy. They always
wanted a daughter, and now they had a daughter. It was
time for the next step.
One day, Louisa’s mother put her in a pretty dress,
usually used when they had to go to a party or something,
she loved the dress as it was white, with lace around the
neck and lovely white tights. Her mother brushed her hair
and put them in a ponytail. Louisa smiled as her mother
took her out. In the car, she was informed that she was
going to the penny centre. For a moment Louisa forgot she
was a penny, and this made her quiet in the car as she
tried to remember why she was a penny, and what a penny
was.
She was led into the doctor’s office, an old lady. Louisa
was laid on the chair while the doctor looked at her all
over her body. This meant that her clothes were taken off.
The woman prodded her all over, especially in her private
parts. Louisa knew by now that she should not complain as
this meant that she would just be put over a knee.
Louisa closed her eyes and dreamt of her dolls when she
felt the worse pain she ever felt on her hand. It was like
her hand was burnt. She yelled out loud and started crying
as her mother told her to be brave and it had to be done.
Just as her mum said that she felt another pain on the
other hand. This made her cry even louder. Why was this
doctor being so mean? Her mother came and picked her up,
and cuddled with her. Louisa looked at her hands. There
were now prints that looked like a “P” on her hand. Louisa
fainted because of the pain and shock.
When Louisa came back to reality, she noticed the pain was
less. She was weak but could hear the doctor speaking to
her mother, “She is now officially a penny. I think that
they should get the tattoos earlier but some think that
they should get used to the idea. Now Louisa has the
tattoos, and it seems as if she has no problems with her
body. It also seems that the collar is helping he accept
her position. We must let her remember that she is a
penny. She has done crimes. She is like this for a reason.
You must discipline her and humiliate her. I know she gets
spankings, but one thing that seems to work is when
pennies are mad to go just in panties in public…..”
The two went on speaking, and it was time to leave.
Louisa’s mother told her that they can have a picnic.
Louisa nodded and smiled. The smile was gone when her
mother said that she should just go in panties. Louisa
protested, only to be put on her mother’s knee. As she was
spanking Louisa, she explained that it will be good for
others to see her pretty white panties with a kitten on
them
As they walked through the park, Louisa could see that
people were looking at her. Some were laughing and
pointing at her. There was one boy that was a bit older
than she was. She noticed he had no tattoos on his hands,
and yet he was teasing her that she had panties on. Louisa
tried her best being good for a while, but she had enough.
She pulled away from her mother, and picked up a fallen
branch from the tree and ran over to the boy and hit his
head with the branch. Louisa smiled as he fell to the
ground, but the smile disappeared as she could see that he
looked like he was dead. A part of Louisa was telling her
that he deserved it while part of her was telling her that
it was wrong, and she was now in big trouble.
Louisa ran as fast as she could. Lucky the others were
trying to take care of the boy to notice that she ran as
fast as she could. Louisa ran downtown, despite people
that were staring at her in panties. A few of them even
asked if she was a runaway penny. Louisa sat at the train
station table. Everything was flying through her head. She
now realised that she was a penny. She was once a man. She
remembered the last few weeks, where she would smile at
seeing a nice frilly dress, or playing with dolls, or
colouring. How could she stoop so low? She was once a cool
man that would do what he wanted. In the last few weeks,
she was happy at being a penny and a girl! However,
society wanted to punish her by making her a 6-year-old
girl. That should be punishment enough. Now she had these
tattoos for life that showed everyone who she is. The
doctor told her mother not to be so nice, and she should
be punished a lot and humiliated a lot for her crimes.
This was not fair. She was proving that she could be a
nice and polite girl. There was no need for them to
humiliate her even more and punish her. She was mad, and
that boy was the victim of her anger.
While Louisa was feeling sorry for herself, she saw a net
fall over her head. It reminded her of the nets they used
to catch stray dogs. Two big men came up to her and as she
struggled they put handcuffs on her. Louisa screamed
telling them they can’t put handcuffs on a child. They
didn’t listen and she has led away to the Penny court.
Louisa could see her mother and father and asked them to
help her. They whispered that she went too far this time.
Louisa sat down in her handcuffs and listened to the
evidence presented to her. The judge sighed at the end and
then said, “This Penny is here once again. Our system has
tried to help her, and despite she has shown signs of
improvement, she continues to fall back into the criminal
ways, this time hospitalising a boy. It is obvious that
she has to go in the machine once again. The lawyers can
read what I have decided.”
Louisa smiled. What was the worse they can do? They would
most likely make her into a baby. Then it wouldn’t matter,
as she would not notice what was happening around her.
Louisa smiled as she prepared herself for the machine.
They could do their worse. She was sedated; she told them
to make sure they had lots of pacifiers and a new nursery
ready for her. Then things went black.
When she woke up, she was a bit sleepy and had the usual
feelings in her body. The first thing that she noticed was
that she could think like she did, and did not think as a
baby. She looked down at her body. She was still a girl
and she was the same size. She still had the tattoos
Louisa giggled that the machine didn’t work. Her mother
and dad were standing over her and she gave them a huge
promising that she learnt her lesson. Her mother smiled,
as she said it was time to get dressed and go home.
Louisa’s smile went away as she seen her mother take a
diaper. Louisa screamed at the top of her voice that she
was not a baby and did not need any diaper. This made her
father drag her over his knee once and explaining that the
judge decided she was not to be a baby. But she would be
humiliated. This meant she would be treated as a baby
while having the body of a 6-year-old girl.
Louisa was now crying because she was still a girl; she
was being spanked and now told that she would be treated
like a baby. She continued to cry as she was put in this
dress that yellow and had a picture of a princess bear on
it. Her mother stuck a pacifier in her mouth. Louisa
knew that she shouldn’t spit it out as she would be over a
knee again. Then her mother put ankle socks on her and
Mary Jane’s. Louisa felt like a little toddler especially
that the dress was so short and showed her diaper. As she
stood up, her dad put a toddler leash on her. They
obviously didn’t want her to run away again. Her mother
promised that if she could go to the toilet and not wet
herself, then she did not have to be a baby, and would be
treated like a 6-year-old.
Of course, that didn’t happen. Twenty minutes later, she
wet the diaper. She cried with a pacifier in her mouth,
realising that the machine changed her body, so she had no
control down there. She also was much weaker. When she saw
her room that was a nursery, she knew that she would now
be treated as a baby. The nursery had a crib, a changing
table and a dolls house. There were many colouring books
on the floor. Louisa was crying. She knew if she
protested, she would just be spanked. Louisa gave her
mother and fathers a hug and promised to be good. That
didn’t save her from wearing diapers. It was hard the
first few days, as it was hard admitting she was wet and
then being changed on a changing table.
In fact, Louisa had to get used to a lot of things. The
clothes she wore were toddler clothes. They were very
fluffy and bright colours, with flowers, butterflies or
cartoon pictures. They always showed that she was wearing
diapers. Not only did she look like a baby, she as treated
like a baby. There as a highchair when Louisa ate, and a
playpen hen her parents wanted to know where she was.
There was, of course, a crib where she slept. Louisa used
everything from pacifiers to baby bottles. She, of course,
wore the collar around her neck and the tattoos would
never wash off.
The worse thing was when they were out. Louisa was put in
a baby seat in the car. When they were walking through a
shop or town, she would be sitting in a stroller. If she
was not in a stroller, she would be on the Toddler leash.
It was embarrassing as people could see she was wearing
diapers. If they were totally blind to that, they would
see the pacifier in her mouth or the baby bottle in her
mouth. Whatever the case, they knew she was a penny
because of the “P” tattoo on her hands.
After a few weeks, Louisa went to a kindergarten with
other children. Some were like her, old but treated like
babies and some were small ones. Louisa also knew that
some were pennies. The tattoos on their hands were a
giveaway. Louisa was afraid of going there at the start,
as she was afraid they would tease her. However, they were
in the same shoes. While some were lucky and didn’t need
diapers or baby things, they respected and played with
Louisa.
Louisa was never allowed to forget that she as a penny
when she woke up, she found herself in a crib. That
reminded her that she was a penny. Then she was taken out
and she was put on her mothers or fathers lap where she
was given a spanking, to remind her to be good. Sometimes
it was with a hand, and other times it was with a paddle.
During the day she was treated like a baby. This meant
people knew she wore diapers, especially when she wore
short dresses. People could also see a pacifier in her
mouth. At home, she would colour or play with dolls. Even
the food that she ate looked like baby food. Louisa was
allowed to see TV, but it was cartoons. Louisa went to bed
early at night, after being put on the lap for a reminder
spanking
The fact is that Louisa quickly got used to her new life.
She did not rebel as she did earlier. She started loving
the pretty things she had. Pink and white were her
favourite colours. She loved playing with dolls. The
important thing is that she loved her mother and father,
and the centre of her life. She knew she was a penny, and
this means that she was once an adult. But she could not
live without her parents now. She knew she was once a man,
and then a boy and she did not understand this. After all,
boys had cooties and they wear boring clothes. Louisa
accepted the bad things about being a penny. In fact, she
thought it was good. It was good being spanked, as it was
like a cleansing for the trouble she caused society as a
man. She accepted wearing diapers and being treated like a
baby. She knew that one day she would grow up to be a
well-mannered and a good lady that will help society. Once
in a while, Louisa thought did she accept this, or was it
the collar that she wore that brainwashed her somehow.
One day a new boy was adopted. He was 9 years old. Daddy
asked Louisa to help him adjust. She went in to speak with
him and was determined that he would accept that he now
lived in pennies world
