Monster Hunter: Handling The Handler
By Lonewolf86 (AOTK)
Sierra, clad in her Nargacuga armor, stood atop a small cluster of rocks on the ocean's edge. Sierra was enjoying the cool breeze and the occasional spray of cool water against her exposed skin. The light wind made her long black hair dance about. It was late afternoon and the Sun would be setting within the next few hours. It had been a long day full of excitement and Sierra enjoyed relaxing on the coast alone to collect her thoughts. This time her trip to the coast would be different, she had much to discuss with her handler, Hanna, who was supposed to be showing up shortly. Sierra had to figure out how to deal with her impulsive handler who had nearly gotten herself killed yet again. This time Hanna had a close encounter with not only a Great Jagras but a Deviljho too. Luckily for Hanna, Sierra was once again, there to come to her rescue in the nick of time.
Sierra heard some rustling in the bushes behind her twenty feet away. She spun around quickly and drew her Night Wing dual swords and prepared herself. The bushes continued to rustle for a couple more seconds without anything emerging from them. Sierra tightened her grip on her swords when Hanna wearing her Commission Armor stumbled out of the bushes.
"Woah! Easy there partner, it's just me." Hanna said surprised to see Sierra with her weapons drawn. Hanna could see that Sierra was still angry with her from earlier in the day.
Sierra sighed and sheathed her blades, the New World had her on edge. Hunt or be hunted, one had to always be prepared to counter an ambush by one of the New World's many predators.
"We need to talk." Sierra said calmly as she hopped down from her perch atop the rocks and gestured Hanna to follow her to the white sandy beach a short distance away.
Hanna had a sinking feeling wash over her, in all their time in the New World, Sierra had never called her out to the beach for a talk.
"What are we going to be talking about?" Hanna asked nervously.
"Your behavior." Sierra replied, there was a hint of annoyance in her tone.
"Um, why are we out here instead of the safety of the settlement?" Hanna asked timidly.
"Less prying ears to hear us." Sierra replied as she stopped and turned towards Hanna. "Our conversation isn't one that most would like to hear.
Hanna was really worried now, Sierra had scolded her a few times in the past but never taken her to the beach to do so.
"If this is about earlier today, I'm really sorry!" Hanna offered an apology in an effort to save herself from whatever Sierra had planned for her.
"It's not just about today, it's about every damn time that you run off and almost get yourself killed!" Sierra snapped angrily.
"Didn't you scold me enough about this already though?" Hanna asked without realizing she was just making things worse for herself.
"Not. Even. Close." Sierra responded. "Words don't seem to be enough anymore."
"What do you mean words aren't enough?" Hanna asked after she stopped following Sierra. She was growing even more nervous.
"It means that I have to resort to a different way of getting my point across to you." Sierra turned to face Hanna after realizing she had fallen behind. "Come here, now."
"What do you intend to do with me?" Hanna asked as she dragged her feet towards Sierra.
"I am going to give you a spanking." Sierra replied calmly.
"What's a spanking?" Hanna looked at Sierra with a confused look. Hanna's tribe didn't practice corporal punishment like Sierra's tribe did.
"It's a type of punishment, usually reserved for the little ones, but sometimes used on young adults too." Sierra explained. "Come over here and pull down your pants."
"What, no way!" Hanna protested.
"Either you come over here and pull them down or I drag you over here and pull them down myself." Sierra retorted while pointing to a spot on the sand to her right.
Hanna reluctantly complied and made her way beside Sierra and lowered her pants to her knees. She was on the verge of tears, she couldn't stand having people angry with her, especially Sierra.
"Now bend over and grab your ankles." Sierra ordered Hanna.
"Like this?" Hanna asked as she bent over with her cute little bubble but exposed.
"Perfect. I see you can follow some instructions after all." Sierra said as she took up position on Hanna's left side. Sierra placed her left hand on the small of Hanna's back and prepared to deliver a spank to her bottom.
*Smack * Sierra gave Hanna a fairly mild first swat but it caught Hanna off guard.
"Oww! What was that for?" Hanna shouted out in surprise as she shot up out of position and covered her bottom with her hands.
"That was your first of many spanks." Sierra said coldly. "Get back into position."
"I don't want to do this." Hanna turned towards Sierra who was giving her an angry scowl.
"If you don't submit to this, I am going to find myself a different handler who will listen instead then." Sierra threatened.
"No, don't! I'll submit!" Hanna hesitantly resumed her position. "I wouldn't be able to handle losing you as my hunter."
"And I can't stand the thought of losing you as my handler. That's why you're in this position right now." Sierra explained. Maybe now Hanna understood how Sierra felt.
Sierra wound up and smacked Hanna with a harder swat to the middle of Hanna's left buttock.
"Oww!" Hanna yelped and covered her bottom with her hands again.
"If you don't keep your hands on your ankles, I am going to make this spanking last even longer." Sierra threatened Hanna.
"I'm sorry! I can't help it, I've never been spanked before." Hanna admitted as she grabbed her ankles again.
Sierra delivered a sharp smack high on her right buttock.
"Oww! It hurts!" Hanna yelped but stayed in position this time.
"It's a punishment, it is supposed to hurt." Sierra paused briefly. "This still won't hurt like getting injured from a monster though."
"I guess... OW!" Hanna agreed and winced as the sting of another spank struck her left sit spot.
Sierra started to increase the frequency of her spanks and gradually increased the power of her spanks. Hanna's bottom was beginning to turn a light pink and she struggled with keeping her hands in front of her.
"Hands!" Sierra barked.
"Oww! I can't help it." Hanna replied as her eyes began to well up.
"Fine I'll help you with that then." Sierra said as she unwound her grappling line from her wrist. She tied Hanna's wrists together then tied them around her ankles. Sierra unhooked her grappler from her gauntlet and resumed her position beside Hanna.
Hanna's heart began to race, she was now defenseless against Sierra's spanks. Sierra looked at the Sun setting behind her. The bottom edge of the Sun was about to come into contact with the horizon.
"I am going to spank you until half the Sun retreats beyond the horizon." Sierra said calmly.
Hanna twisted to the side to look at the Sun's position and was disappointed to learn that punishment was going to continue for quite some time yet.
"From now on you are going to reign in your impulsiveness and stay BEHIND me when we go on an expedition." Sierra spoke sternly with her handler while delivering more forceful spanks to Hanna's bottom.
"Owwie! OW! OW!" Hanna yelped and wiggled from side to side trying to evade Sierra's spanks to no avail. "Okay! I'll stay behind you from now on."
"And you aren't going to go running off anymore." Sierra continued her lecture with spanks to reinforce the point. *Whap * Smack * Whap *
"AHH!" Hanna clenched her teeth and buttocks, the sting of Sierra's spanks were proving difficult to endure as tears began to roll down her face. "Okay, okay!"
"What aren't you going to do?" Sierra asked as she focused several swats on her sit spot on each of her butt cheeks.
"Oww, AHH, OWW! I won't run off!" Hanna whimpered as her bottom turned from pink to red.
Sierra rubbed Hanna's bottom a bit, her bottom radiated heat.
"Are you learning your lesson?" Sierra asked Hanna as she bent over to look into Hanna's eyes.
"Yes." Hanna's lip quivered as tears streaked down her face. "I'm sorry, Sierra."
"Good. We're almost done." Sierra stood back up and braced Hanna against her hip. "The next few spanks are going to be very hard and very fast. Take a couple deep breaths and ready yourself."
Sierra watched Hanna's back carefully while she took Sierra's advice and inhaled deeply before letting out a long exhale and repeated. True to her word, Sierra let out a barrage of strikes all across Hanna's already tender bottom. Hanna mewled uncontrollably as she tried pulling away from Sierra's firm grip but Sierra was too strong for her.
"WAAAAAHHHH!" Hanna cried out as she started to bawl.
The spanking finally stopped several spanks later with half the Sun obscured by the horizon. Sierra unbound Hanna's wrists from her ankles and helped her stand up before looking deeply into her eyes.
"I only did this to show you how scared you made me feel. I was so afraid I was going to lose you today." Sierra's tone was soft and caring. She wiped some of the tears from Hanna's face before pulling her in for a hug.
"I'm sorry." Hanna replied in between sobs and sniffles.
"I know sweetie." Sierra consoled Hanna. "I just want you to be more careful in the future please."
Sierra held Hanna in their embrace for a couple minutes while rubbing her back. Once she felt Hanna had calmed down enough she released her from the hug. Hanna's hands quickly found their way to her swollen bottom where she delicately rubbed her bottom.
"Come on, let's get back to Astera." Sierra suggested. "I hear Deviljho is on the menu tonight."
"Okay." Hanna smiled weakly at Sierra, all this spanking business got her appetite up. Hanna gingerly pulled up her pants and whimpered as they struggled to slide over her sore crimson bottom.
Sierra and Hanna walked slowly back to Astera while admiring the sunset to their side. By the time they got back, the festivities had already begun. Everyone was celebrating the successful hunt of the Deviljho. Both the women grabbed some of the freshly cooked meat and sat down at a nearby table. Hanna shifted her weight from buttock to buttock trying to get comfortable but her throbbing bottom would deny her that luxury.
"Your bum is going to hurt for a few days, each time it throbs, it will be a reminder of our little talk. But if you continue to put yourself needlessly in harms way again, your next spanking will be far worse than this one. I gathered this was your first spanking so I went easy on you. Next time, I won't." Sierra explained to Hanna.
"Eeep! It won't happen again!" Hanna looked at Sierra wide eyed and thought if that was her going easy on her, she'd hate to feel her full wrath.
"I need to go talk to the commander. Behave yourself missy." Sierra said with a smile while wagging her right index finger at her.
"I will." Hanna said seconds before shoveling more food into her mouth.
Sierra left the table to have her chat with the commander for some time. After Sierra heard enough of the commander's praises of her hunt, she made her way back to her quarters. She noticed her hunter notes book sitting on her bed and picked it up. As she lifted the book up, a loose page fell out. The page had a crude drawing of a woman and at the top it said:
"Humanoid Monster: Sierra." She realized the picture was supposed to be her and she shook her head. She continued reading the page.
"Characteristics: Also known as 'Sapphire Star' or 'White Wind' this attractive monster is an apex predator in any ecosystem. She is agile and cunning and a force to be reckoned with."
"Useful information: Humanoids must refrain from angering this usually docile and friendly monster. Once angered, she goes into a frenzy and will strike her prey's bottom until crimson red. Little is known on how to counter this attack."
"Strengths: Agile, Cunning, Adaptive, Powerful Hand."
"Weaknesses: Sense of Humor, Short-Tempered."
Sierra sighed heavily before shouting loud enough for much of the settlement to hear, "HANNA!"
To be continued … possibly.
