A Spanking Carol
Chapter 5
The next ghost to appear before her in the darkness was a hooded figure with glowing red eyes. "What are you the ghost of?" asked Alice.
"I'm the Ghost of Spankings Future," replied the ghost. "You were visited by a ghost of the past, and then a ghost of the present. What else were you expecting?"
"Well the Christmas ghost specifically threw me off!" said Alice irritably. "It's still April!"
"I suppose that was confusing for you," said the ghost. "Very well then, let's go. I have something to show you."
There was another white flash and then Alice found herself in a rather cramped and dingy environment. Standing nearby was a woman in a blue uniform as well as another woman who was completely naked.
Alice recognized the naked woman. "That's Amanda! She's one of the students on the volleyball team. I paddled her yesterday."
"Show me your holes!" commanded the officer in an unfirendly tone. Amanda turned around and bent over. Alice's eyes immediately fixated on her butt and remembered paddling it yesterday. Even though this was the future, it still seemed that Amanda's butt showed signs of a recent spanking.
Alice was accustomed to seeing the bare butts of students who were bent over for a spanking, but she wasn't prepared for what Amanda did next. In the lewdest most vulgar display Alice had ever witnessed, Amanda reached back and used her hands to spread her buttocks wide apart. This also opened up her vagina.
The officer knelt down and turned on the flashlight in her hand. She used the flashlight to illuminate the two bodily orifices that Amanda was so shamelessly exposing. "You had better not be getting shy on me," said the officer mockingly. "Get those holes open wider, inmate!"
"Is she not embarrassed to be flaunting her private parts like that?" asked a disgusted Alice. “Not even a hint of modesty!”
"This is extremely embarrassing for her," replied the ghost. "But she has no choice. She has to obey every command or she will be harshly punished. But she is used to this procedure by now. She is institutionalized and her mind has adapted accordingly. All she knows is obedience and authority because that is how her environment has conditioned her. It’s kind of like your approach to enforcing rules. You don’t really care about helping students make wise choices. You only care about making them obey authority. That works in the short-term but it isn’t good preparation for the real world.”
“Obedience is one thing, but doesn’t she have even a sliver of self-respect left?” asked Alice. “No, she doesn’t,” replied the ghost. “And you are to blame for that as well. You talk about modesty? What sort of message are you sending when you pull down her panties to spank her? After having her boundaries violated by you, it became easier to allow others to do the same, including the abusive boyfriend who got her involved with drugs. This is the end result.”
“Alright, I’m done,” said the officer, clicking off her flashlight and returning it to her belt. Amanda stood up straight and turned around. “There was no need for you to get up,” said the officer. “I still have to punish you.”
“Punish me?” asked Amanda nervously. “What did I do?”
The officer raised an eyebrow. “Resisting a strip search is an extremely serious offense. If I were to file formal charges against you, it could extend your sentence. But I prefer to deal with these infractions in a more personal manner.”
“I wasn’t resisting!” cried Amanda. “I did everything you told me to.”
The officer ignored Amanda’s protests. She grabbed what looked to be a cane made out of a synthetic material that was hanging on the wall. “You clenched your sphincter when you heard me turn the flashlight on,” she said.
“That’s it?” asked Amanda. “It was just a reaction I had because this is embarrassing.”
“You attempted to obstruct my view,” said the officer. “That’s textbook resistance. Now turn around and bend over for your punishment!”
“Just like high school,” muttered Amanda as she assumed the position. Alice couldn’t help but feel a bit of pride at how well Amanda complied with her impending punishment. Alice watched as the officer took her time delivering twelve good strokes that left Amanda’s butt covered in angry red stripes. Amanda managed to remain in position the entire time. Alice expected her students to do the same, and was pleased to see that Amanda at least retained that sort of self-control.
Once the punishment was over, Amanda was allowed to put on her orange prison jumpsuit. Shackles were then put on her hands and feet and she was led out of the room by the officer.
“Can we go now?” asked Alice. “I think you’ve made your point.”
“Not just yet,” replied the ghost. “There should be another inmate coming in here in a few minutes. We will wait until then.”
Alice sighed. “I don’t think I will learn anything new from seeing this happen again, but alright.”
After several minutes, the officer returned with a new inmate. Alice also recognized this inmate as well. It was her. “What? How did I end up in prison?”
“What did you expect?” asked the ghost. “You frequently skirt the edge of legality. One day, you go too far and these are the consequences. It’s only a two-year sentence, but you see how inmates are treated here.”
“I don’t want that!” cried Alice. “Well, the only way to avoid this fate is a dramatic shift in your way of thinking,” said the ghost. “You aren’t wrong to punish your students when necessary, but you are doing it for all the wrong reasons. Change now before it’s too late!”
“OK, I will change!” said Alice. “I promise! Anything to avoid this!”
“See that you do,” said the ghost. “You will receive no further warnings. I will now return you to your present time.”
Alice found herself back in front of her school. She looked around frantically. It was still pretty deserted. She dashed back inside and headed straight to the faculty bathroom where she began to weep. She promised herself that she would change.
