 The Escape Plan



   It was a hot Thursday lunch-time.  Linda and Kelly were lying back on
the recently cut grass of the school playing field, lazily chewing stalks
of grass.  Despite the weather, they were not happy.  An afternoon of
double maths, followed by physics would have been bad enough, but they also
faced the prospect of a caning after school on Friday, then a full day's
detention on Saturday.  A Saturday they had planned to spend shopping and
watching Wimbledon on the TV in the afternoon.  They could see no way out
of either of their punishments.

   Linda and Kelly were close friends, inseparable; both of medium height,
both with medium length hair (Linda's a sandy blonde, and Kelly's jet
black), they were both fourteen, and neither had been caned before.  Their
crime was to have set the school's fire alarms off, a stupid joke that they
regretted now.  A crime they would have got away with if they hadn't been
seen doing it by David Miller.  He had ratted on them, and in the tradition
of school justice his statement was enough to condemn them despite no other
evidence to support the claim.

   The girls had been summoned to the headmasters office, and their guilt
had been proclaimed, and their punishment dictated, of course there was
also a lecture.  How disappointed everyone was in the girls was stressed
over and over again.  The girls had been grateful when that ordeal was
over, made dinner just in time for the first sitting, and escaped outside
to the playing field; to sit dejected in the sun.

   It was just short of thirty degrees centigrade, very humid, and there
was little breeze to alleviate the discomfort.  The girls wore dark green
knee length skirts, white summer blouses, green blazers which were
discarded on the grass along with their green and silver ties.  The noise
of two-hundred children at play surrounded them.  Everyone was subdued by
the weather.  Kids playing football were stooped, hands on knees, breathing
heavily and sweating profusely.  Young couples, some holding hands for the
first time, strolled apathetically round the field.  Some, more extrovert
couples kissed, lying on the grass, holding each other self-consciously, in
a compromise between what their bodies told them was appropriate, and what
they had learned from steamy television serials.

   "I don't want to be caned" Kelly said unnecessarily.

   "No kidding" replied Linda.

   "What are we going to do?  We'll miss the tennis.  A whole day in
detention will drive me crazy" said Kelly, sitting up a little more and
looking around as if trying to find someone to blame.

   "A whole day of you moaning about it will drive me crazy"

   "And that doesn't take account of what my dad's going to do"

   "Well if he's anything like my dad he'll stop your pocket money for a
month, and probably won't let you out for a few weeks either."

   "Shit!" Kelly turned towards Linda, as if realising the full
implications of what they had done.

   "There's no point worrying about it Kelly.  There's nothing we can do."

   A stray ball came their way, and Kelly rolled it back at the shirtless
boys nearby.

   "There must be something we can do.  We have to find a way out of this."
Kelly lay back on the grass again, her left arm across her eyes to protect
them from the sun.  They rested in silence for a while, until they heard
the school bell ringing in the distance, announcing afternoon registration.

   "I've got it.  I've got a plan." Kelly said as she put her tie on again,
and picked up her blazer.

   "What plan?" asked Linda sounding unconvinced.

   "All we've got to do is persuade David to tell the headmaster that he
lied.  That he didn't see us press the alarm at all." responded Kelly
cheerfully.

   "Uhuh, and how do we do that?" Linda's voice betrayed her scepticism.

   "Well I haven't got that far yet, but I will.  Before the day is out."



   The afternoon passed slowly.  Kelly and Linda were both intelligent
girls who always did well in school, but neither of them enjoyed maths very
much.  The double period was the dread of the week.  David Miller was in
the same class as the girls, and Kelly sat two rows behind him in maths,
she spent most of the lesson staring at the back of his head, thinking very
hard about her plan, or rather lack of plan.  David was also an intelligent
student.  Kelly quite liked him really, although he was rather too shy for
her taste.  He was good looking, well proportioned, had a cheeky grin, and
a fair amount of spirit when he needed it.  The plan formed slowly, but it
did form.  By the end of the lesson she had it all worked out.

   As the bell rang, and they got up to head for the physics lab Kelly
whispered to Linda:

   "I've got it.  It's foolproof, and there's no risk."

   "Go on then.  What's the plan?" replied Linda.

   Kelly whispered to her as they left the room and climbed down the stairs
to the ground floor.

   "You wouldn't dare!" Linda blurted out excitedly.

   "It can't fail Linda.  Think about it."

   Linda did think about it.  It was a good plan.  It shouldn't fail, but
still...it was going a bit far.

   "It's not like he framed us or anything Kelly, he only ratted on us."

   "This has got nothing to do with fairness Linda, it's not about revenge,
well maybe a little bit but that's no the point.  This is about survival.
Do you want to get the cane, spend all day in detention on Saturday, and
have your pocket money stopped for a month and not be able to go out for
the next five years?"

   "Yeh, okay.  I'm in.  There is one thing though.  How are we going to
get him to Bluebell Wood?  We can't take him there at gun-point."

   "I've already thought of that.  You know he's soft on Vanessa.  He
hasn't got the courage to ask her out, but he really fancies her, well
she's going to write him a little note saying how much she likes him, and
how she'd like to meet him there right after school."

   "She is is she.  Does she know this."

   "Not yet, but she will before this physics lesson is over."

   "How are you going to persuade her?"

   "I've got an Emlyn Hughes autograph she wants."

   "You're a devious bitch sometimes Kelly, you really are."



   The physics lesson was as slow and boring as the maths lesson was. 
Neither of the girls could concentrate, both were excited, and a little
scared at what lay ahead.  Kelly passed notes to Vanessa, and Vanessa
passed notes back.  The exchange was terminated by a note from Vanessa to
David.  He looked back at Vanessa, a little surprised, but when she smiled
at him, he smiled back and blushed.

   "We'll have to stop of at my house on the way home." Kelly told Linda as
they left the classroom.

   Linda nodded, sagely.



   The woods were quiet.  A few birds sung in the trees, but even they
seemed to be subdued by the heat.  Kelly and Linda stopped in a small
clearing, largely surrounded by thick bushes.  Kelly dropped a bag on the
floor, and took of her tie and blazer dropping them on the floor also. 
Linda followed her example.

   "I can't believe we're going to do this Kelly." she said breathlessly.

   "No, but we are."

   "Did you remember the handcuffs?" asked Linda.

   "Yes, for the third time.  I remembered everything.  Don't worry!"

   They were both disturbed by a sound in the woods, coming from the
direction of the path.

   "Shit.  He's early.  Hide." instructed Kelly.

   They both ducked down out of sight, as David approached the clearing,
looking for a way through the bushes.  He had his blazer slung over his
right shoulder, and his tie stuffed in the pocket.  Just as he picked his
way around the last on, both girls jumped on him.  They rolled around on
the ground for a little while struggling.  Until eventually Kelly was
sitting on David, and Linda managed to roll him over onto his front.  David
was not much stronger than the girls, so they didn't have too much trouble
forcing his hands behind his back and putting the handcuffs on.

   "What the fuck's going on?  Where's Vanessa?" said David, sounding angry
and scared at the same time.

   "She's not coming." said Kelly, a little proudly "you've been set up my
boy."

   "What?  What do you mean?  Get off me!"

   "We've got a bit of a problem David.  You see, you dropped us in deep
shit when you told on us about the fire-alarms.  And the only way we can
see out of it is if you go and tell the headmaster that you lied.  That it
wasn't us after all, and you made it all up."

   "But it was you.  How can I tell him I lied.  For Christ's sake he'll
murder me if I say that."

   "Oh dear.  I thought you'd take that view."

   Kelly was beginning to enjoy herself.  She had been exited ever since
she'd thought up the plan, but she was really enjoying this sense of power.
She knew what they were going to do to him, she knew there was nothing he
could do to stop them.  She felt strangely aroused by it all.  She tried to
hide her excitement and keep control of her voice.

   Kelly remained on top of David despite his struggling.  With his arms
behind his back he couldn't really muster any strength.  Kelly nodded to
Linda, and she started to remove David's shoes and socks.

   "What are you doing?  Stop that!  Kelly, please.  I'm sorry.  I didn't
mean to tell on you.  Mr Hunter caught me, he thought it was me that had
set the alarms off.  I was going to get the blame.  I wouldn't have told
anyone otherwise."

   "David this isn't about blame.  Well, all right part of it is to punish
you for telling on us, but the important thing is getting us out of the
shit.  The only way you're getting out of this is if you agree to retract
your accusation."

   "You know I can't do that."

   "But you will."

   David was beginning to get really scared now.  he didn't know what these
girls were going to do to him.  He had his fears, but he didn't really
think that they'd do anything too awful.  If they did he could report them
and they'd be in even bigger trouble.  He thought they were probably just
trying to frighten him.  But he didn't intend to give in to their
intimidation.  There was something that really disturbed him though,
something that undermined his confidence that nothing too awful was going
to happen, and that was the strange tone in Kelly's voice.

   David's shoes and socks were off, and discarded, Linda holding her nose
and pulling a face.  Kelly rolled David face up, and sat on his stomach. 
She started to undo the buttons on his shirt.  David was scared and excited
at the same time, and he began to really worry about what they were going
to do with him.

   "Oh come on Kelly.  This isn't going to work.  For God's sake pack it
in!" he said.

   Kelly just looked at him and smiled.

   "We're going to strip you naked David.  Then we're going to find a
branch, just the right kind, and smack your bare bottom with it.  Then... I
don't really know...  we'll improvise from there." she said, feeling the
awesomeness of the power she had over him.

   "You're crazy.  You won't do that.  You wouldn't dare.  Linda, tell her.
You'll be in big trouble.  Christ you're in enough as it is.  Do you really
want more.  This is...  the..."

   Kelly put her hand over his mouth.

   "The only thing I want from you is an assurance that you are going to
retract.  Anything else you say is a waste of your breath."

   David really beginning to feel scared now.  His stomach was full of
gnawing anxiety, and he felt slightly nauseous.  He wasn't sure whether he
believed Kelly or not.  They wouldn't really strip him naked would they. 
That would be beyond the pale.  They were bluffing.  His rational mind was
certain that they were bluffing, but another part of him was terrified that
they were not.

   His shirt buttons undone, they pulled his shirt up and over his head. 
The handcuffs prevented them pulling it off, but they pushed it as far down
his arms as they could until he was lying on it.  Kelly turned slightly and
reached down behind her, feeling for the button at the top of David's black
school trousers.  She found it, and undid it slowly, and then equally
slowly pulled down the zip, and folded back the flies of his trousers,
revealing the white underpants beneath.

   David was shaking slightly, and had gone pale, despite the heat.  He was
sweating quite profusely, and becoming more and more convinced that Kelly
had gone mad, and might actually carry out her threat.  Linda took hold of
the legs of David's trousers and with some effort pulled them down, and
then off, leaving him lying in just his white underpants.

   "You know.  Just about the most embarrassing thing that can happen to a
fourteen year old boy, is to be naked in front of other people, especially
girls.  In fact it's probably the most awful thing you can imagine
happening to you isn't it?" Kelly said to David, giggling a little.

   "Are you sure about this Kelly?" asked Linda.  She was getting excited
too, but she was also getting scared.  She wasn't as sure about this as she
had been earlier.  She was also feeling a little bit sorry for David.

   "More than ever." replied Kelly evenly.  There was no way Kelly was
going to stop now.  They had secured nothing, if they let him go they only
added to their troubles, and perhaps most importantly of all she was
enjoying herself in a way she had never done before.  She really felt the
thrill of power.  She had never had any power over anyone before, and to
have this much power over a boy, was really thrilling.  She was feeling a
strong sexual arousal too, and felt herself become quite moist.

   David was banking on Kelly bluffing.  They had brought him this far, to
scare him, they had left him in his underpants to terrify him into
believing that they would pull them down.  They wouldn't.  They just wanted
him to give in.  David wouldn't give in, even though he was really not sure
about his reasoning.

   Kelly hooked a finger underneath the front of his pants and pulled up,
eventually letting the elastic slap back onto David's belly.  He gasped. 
Then she let her finger stroke a line across his belly just above the
elastic.

   "Are you scared yet?" she asked.

   "No" replied David his voice shaking in fear, wanting but not being able
to look her in the eye when he said it.

   Kelly gently took hold of the elastic on both his hips, and slowly
pushed away from herself.

   "Noooo!" cried David "All right.  All right I'll retract I promise. 
I'll tell the headmaster tomorrow.  I'll tell him I made it up, that it was
me that did it.  Please, just stop.  Stop!"

   Kelly stopped.  She was still sitting on him.  Half on his belly, half
on his chest.  She was turned away from him, looking down at his underpants
which she had pushed part way down, just revealing an area of pubic hair
above his penis.  David's modesty was still just about in tact.  Kelly
sighed, and let David relax.  Let him believe his ordeal was over.

   "Thank you David.  That's all I wanted to hear." she said smiling at him
kindly.

   "Oh God.  I really thought you were going to do it.  Look I'm sorry I
got you into trouble.  I'll sort it out tomorrow I promise.  God you really
had me scared then." he smiled back at her, a look of utter relief on his
face.

   "The problem is...  you might change your mind tomorrow.  You might want
to tell on us for this little incident.  You might think that once you're
away from here then you don't have to keep your promise.  And...  I would
like to punish you for ratting on us anyway, and putting us through a lot
of worry." as she said this she drummed her finger idly on his chest.

   "I won't change my mind I promise.  I won't tell anyone.  Please you've
got to believe me.  I give you my word."

   "Not good enough.  I've got a better idea" said Kelly, slowly pulling
his pants all the way to his knees.  Linda took over from there and pulled
them off, dropping them onto his trousers.

   "Oh No, No please.  Oh God.  Christ you're in for it now.  I'll kill
you. I'll kill you both.  Just you wait until I get free you're in deep
shit.  What are your parents going to think.  You wait.  You bitch.  You
wait."

   "He's turning nasty.  Let's give him a good smacking.  That ought to
give him something to really complain about" said Kelly unconcerned.

   Kelly stood up, and she and Linda dragged the struggling naked David to
a large log, where they forced him down, backside in the air.

   "Go find a branch or something, something whippy." Kelly told Linda. 
Linda went of to the bushes looking for something suitable, while Kelly sat
alongside David, admiring the curve of his bottom.  She held him down with
one hand, and just to pass the time started to spank him with her hand,
enjoying the way his buttocks wobbled with each smack.  David squirmed and
cursed, suffering far more agony in the humiliation and indignity of the
situation than the pain.  She had been right.  His nakedness in front of
them was just about the worst thing he could imagine.  He wanted to die in
shame.

   Linda came back with a strong piece of flexible stalk from one of the
bushes, and gave it to Kelly.  Kelly swished it through the air a few
times, and satisfied, started to strike David's bottom with it,
occasionally hitting him on the tops of the thighs just for a change. 
David bucked and screamed, and shouted threats and curses at Kelly.

   "Here, you have a go." Kelly said, handing Linda the improvised cane. 
Linda took it a little doubtfully, and swung it a few times, not very hard.

   "I think he's had enough now Kelly.  Come on, let's finish this off."

   "Okay.  We're nearly done now anyway.  It won't be long, and don't
worry. You'll be glad on Saturday."

   Kelly didn't really want to stop now, she was having too much fun.  She
wanted to go on for much longer, but Linda was right, they shouldn't overdo
it, and she was getting a bit worried that someone might wonder about the
marks on David's backside.

   Kelly and Linda lifted David off the log, and dropped him on the floor
again.  He was crying quietly to himself.  Too ashamed to look either of
them in the eye.  His face almost as red as his bottom.

   "You have to understand that we have to protect ourselves David.  We
have to make sure that you'll do as we ask.  I want you to understand that.
There must be no possibility that you'll change your mind tomorrow."

   "Fuck off!"

   "That kind of language isn't going to help you you know.  We're nearly
finished now."

   Kelly sat beside David, pushing him back into a lying position, and a
little nervously, stroked her hand down his stomach, and down the side of
his groin.  David bucked involuntarily.

   "Get Off!" he shouted.

   "You know, there probably is one thing that a fourteen year old boy
would fear more than being stripped naked in front of a couple of girls. 
Do you know what that is David?" Kelly asked sadistically, stroking the
back of her index finger down David's long slim penis.

   "Get off me you bitch.  Please, don't do that."

   "That's right.  Being stark bollock naked in front of two girls...  with
an erection."

   David started to cry again, and moan and mumble incoherently.  He
couldn't believe it.  He could not believe what they were doing to him.

   Kelly took David's penis and rubbed it gently, pulling the foreskin
back, and stroking the frenum and glans.  Shocks of excitement coursed
through David, feelings and sensation that he had never experienced before
flooded into his brain.  His penis rose quickly, until before long it was
stiff and erect.

   "Look, it stands up all on it's own." announced Kelly.

   Linda squealed.  She had never seen an erect penis before.  In fact she
had only eve seen two penises before, her brother's who was eight, and her
father's.  Kelly had claimed to have seen her boyfriend Alan's penis, but
Linda thought she was making that up.

   "My God.  It's so big." cried Linda, laughing with embarrassment.

   "Nah, it's about average" said Kelly trying to sound knowledgeable about
such things "Get the camera."

   Linda fumbled in Kelly's bag, and drew out a Polaroid camera.  David
found new strength and struggled like a Demon, but Kelly threw herself
across his chest, to pin him down.  Linda started to take snaps.

   "Let's stand him up." suggested Kelly, and the two of them pulled him to
his feet.  Kelly started to stroke his buttocks and thighs, and groin,
finally alighting on his penis again, rubbing it harder now; just to make
sure it stayed stiff.  Linda continued taking pictures.  Making sure that
she caught David from all angles, including from behind, and making sure
that she kept Kelly out of shot.

   "That's it" said Linda, lowering the camera, "no more film."

   Kelly sat David down again, and went through the pictures showing them
to David one at a time.

   "Now here's the deal.  Tomorrow you go to the headmaster's office before
assembly, and you tell him that you set of the fire-alarm, and that you
lied about us doing it.  Also, of course, you make no mention of your
ordeal here this afternoon.  And you make no attempt at retribution.  If
you fail in any of these things we'll plaster these pictures all over the
school.  Every kid, boys and girls, from eleven to eighteen is going to see
you stark naked with your willy up in the air.  Of course the teachers will
see them too I suppose.  God that's an embarrassing thought.  The whole
school.  You'd never be able to lift your head up again.  Do we have a
deal, and don't forget you can't double-cross us here David.  I think you
know we mean business."

   "Okay" replied David weakly, knowing he was beaten "I'll do whatever you
say, just don't show anyone those pictures...  please."

   "Good boy.  Now.  Since you've been through such a lot this afternoon,
and you have been good really.  We'll give you a bit of a treat."

   Kelly grabbed David's penis again and began rubbing hard.  She didn't
really know what she was doing, but she had heard some of the older boys
talking about masturbation, and had a pretty good idea of what was
involved. She didn't have to work for very long before David yelled out,
and went into a brief spasm.  Sperm erupted from his penis and flew a
considerable distance before falling to earth.

   "Wow!" Kelly and Linda said together, amazed.

   "Come on let's go." said Linda packing up.

   The girls got up, and as they had planned Linda left first with the
pictures, to get those to safety before David was released.  Just in case.
Then Kelly unlocked the hand-cuffs, and put them in her pocket.  The
tousled David's hair, gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, a pat on the
backside, and skipped merrily away.

   Her plan had worked, and she realised that now she had the pictures she
had David.  Once he had done what they wanted there was no end to what they
could make him do.  And, there was no reason they couldn't use the same
technique on others, girls or boys.  They could even enlist David' help. 
This was going to be a great Summer, thought Kelly to herself.
