Author's Note

A great alliance is being established. But, somebody who infiltrated Zephyr Heights has plans not to let that happen.

P is for Punishment

Dressed in her dom outfit, she used a crop to whack a blindfolded girl, bound and gagged. The girl felt the hirs all over her naked body. Then, Crimson Blaze took of her blindfold and ball gag. "You've been through enough. Rest a few minutes before I untie you."

"Yes, mistress." The girl said with a low voice.

Putting down her crop, Crimson picked up a lime green P. "P is for Punishment."

In a beautiful castle on top of a mountain, a lavender skinned woman wearing a teal gown addresses two younger maidens. This woman is the ruler of Zephyr Heights: Queen Haven.

"Pipp Petals and Zipp Storm, my trusting daughters." Haven said. "Lady Opaline Arcana will be coming tomorrow to discuss a peace treaty between our home of Zephyr Heights, Bridlewood, and Maretime Bay."

"Wow!" Zipp said. "This unity is just what the three lands have been waiting for."

" I agree." Pipp added. "There's been a lot of mistrust between those lands for a while."

"Indeed." Haven said. "I sent you two to Bridlewood and Maretime Bay to get to know some of the people. I believe you made some friends in the process."

"We sure have." Pipp replied. "Some of the people realized that they can learn from us youth."

"Excellent. Get some rest, dearies. We meet our new possible aloues in the morning."

Meanwhile, a shadowy figure watches the discussion, and growls with a deep male voice. "Those sisters weren't sent. They snuck into those lands. There should be no peace between the three lands."

Later that night, the sisters were preparing for bed. Suddenly, their door was opened roughly as two bulky guards came in.

"Don't you fellows know how to knock?" Pipp protested. "This is a girl's quarters, you know."

At that moment, a red skinned man with marigold hair walks in and looks angrily at the girls. "Take them away!"

The guards grab the sisters and drag them off as the young man gave another order. "To the torture chamber, with them!"

As the brutes drag the girls away, one of the night guards, who was on duty, heard the whole thing. "I better tell the queen about this."

In another area, Pipp and Zipp find themselves naked and chained to a wall. They started to get nervous.

"Pipp, how did we get into this mess?" Zipp asked.

"I don't know." Pipp answered. "I'm sure our mother can straighten this out."

The man who gave the order walks in to confront the helpless maidens.

"Pipp Petals and Zipp Storm," The man addressed, "you two are to be punished for entering forbidden territory."

"What do you mean 'forbidden territory '?" Pipp asked.

"The lands of Maretime Bay and Bridlewood. Nobody from Zephyr Heights was to enter any of those lands!"

"Hey!" Zipp protested. "Our mother, the queen, sent us to learn of those lands. She thinks that we can get along."

The man slapped Zipp's face. "LIAR!!"

"Hey!" Pipp called out. "Leave my sister alone!"

This person slapped her hard. "You too!"

The sisters started to get more nervous. What kind of person would want to harass royalty. This man then took out a cat-o'-nine-tails tails and prepared to hurt them.

"Despite your pleas for mercy," The man said, "you have committed a crime against Zephyr Heights." He them exploded with anger. "YOU WILL BE PUNISHED SEVERLY!!!"

The man struck his cat-o'-nine-tails across Pipp's breasts. She seethed in pain. Zipp watched in fear. Then, the vicious brute sod the same to her.

"When I'm done with you rule breakers," This man said, "your mother will be ashamed of you forever."

"You can't do this to us!" Zipp protested. "Punishments are not without reason."

"Talking to outsiders is reason enought." The man pulled Zipp's hair. "You are NOT to stand up to me!" He them struck Pipp's legs. "That goes for you too!"

The guards watched with a little concern as this person continues to whip these helpless sisters. Pipp and Zipp had lash marks all over their body. They were both tearing up. But, the man looks at them with angry eyes.

"No young man will look at you now." He said. "With all of those welts, most young men will know you cannot be trusted." He then raises his evil too. "Time for you to receive MORE MARKS OF HUMILIATION!!"

At that moment, the door burst open, and Queen Haven and two of her bodyguards came in.

"Stop this madness!" Haven demanded.

"Queen Haven, your majesty." The stranger addressed. "I am punishing these wayward daughters for speaking with outsiders."

"I sent them to Bridkewood and Maretime Bay to speak to possible allies." She turned to one of her bodyguards."Get my daughter's some fresh clothes."

The bodyguard nodded and left. Haven had one of the guards undo the restraints. Soon, Lady Opaline Arcana stepped in to the room.

"What has happened to your daughters, Haven?" Opaline asked.

"This young man here started whipping my dears." Maven answered. "He thinks he's doing me a favor."

"More like doing himself a favor."

The red skinned man started to panic as Opaline approached him.

"Hanen, Pipp, and Zipp," Opaline said, "this brute comes from Maretime Bay. This is Sprout Cloverleaf. Sheriff Hitch Trailblazer's eager young deputy. He didn't want this peace treaty to go through."

The next day, Arcana helped establish the alliance of the three lands.

"To ensure peace, I shall announce representatives if the three lands to become a noble team." Opaline announced. "Sheriff Hitch Trailblazer and Sunny Starscout will represent Maretime Bay. The young magician, Izzy Moonbow, will represent Bridlewood. Finally, Pipp Petals and Zipp Storm will represent Zephyr Heights."

Everybody applauded this decision. Wearing bandages, Pipp spoke up. "Miss Opaline, may you let your assistant, Misty Brightdawn, be part of our group?"

"I was just thinking of that." Opaline replied. "She can use some new friends." She then had another thought. "Next order of business, Hit h wants his deputy punished for his crimes against the royal sisters."

Haven then turned to her daughters. "Pipp and Zipp, would you like to administer some payback?"

The girls develop evil grins and spoke in unison. "With pleasure!"
