Chapter 3:
The Warning
Blackwell Academy
Kate's Dorm
It had been a few hours since Kate had returned from the woods where she'd spent an hour of her life watching what Max had been up to. She was now laying curled up in the bed of her dorm, her blankets pulled up high as she trembled in fright. She wished, hoped and prayed that what she'd seen wasn't real. She'd already tried to pass it off as a nightmare she'd had. It had to have been a nightmare, that kind of stuff only happens in nightmares, right? Maybe she had been here in her dorm the whole time, and she'd just dreamt the whole awful experience up. She tried to convince herself that maybe the girl she saw wasn't Max, but that other girl sure as hell was Chloe Price, so of course, it had to be Max Caulfield she'd seen through that window.
In the past few hours, Kate had been laying here, contemplating and praying about what she'd seen, wondering if her faith had been tested. No, what she'd seen had nothing to do with God. That wasn't even human. What she'd bore witness to was pure evil itself, nothing more, nothing less. She still hadn't decided what she was going to do next. Should she call the police? Should she call Joyce Price? No, that would destroy the grieving mother. Should she play dumb, or confront Max? Now, that thought scared Kate. Now that she knew what Max was capable of, she feared for her life and for her sanity. Maybe going to the police would-
Kate paused and listened closely to the surrounding silence in and around her dorm. But there was something else she heard; a light clicking noise. 'Oh no!' Kate thought, 'Max is back!' Kate sat up and peered over her shoulder at the door. There was a shadow under it in the dim light. Her door unlocked, and a brief silence followed. Then the doorknob turned, and her door slowly began to creak open. Kate quietly squealed and turned back to face the wall. A shadow was reflected on the wall she now faced, and Kate knew by the size and shape that it was Max. The shadow slowly entered the dorm and then quietly shut the door behind them. Kate covered her mouth with a quivering hand and listened, hearing nothing. She knew that Max was standing by the locked door and staring right at her in the dark.
Kate then heard light footsteps make their way towards her bed and she did her best to look like she was asleep, although she had a feeling that Max already knew quite the contrary. The footsteps stopped right next to the bed and Kate struggled to hear over her pounding heart. She heard something drop lightly to the floor, then felt the blankets slowly lift up, felt Max then climb in right up against her and cover up with her. Kate's eyes were wide as she waited for something, anything to happen next. A few moments passed, and Kate shivered as she heard Max exhale irritably through her nose. Kate refused to turn around and face Max, who was burning holes into the back of her head.
Max: (Tickling the back of Kate's neck, causing goosebumps) "You shouldn't have followed me out into the woods, Kate. You weren't supposed to see what you saw tonight."
Kate's eyes darted back and forth, but she knew escape would be impossible as Max had boxed her into a corner. Kate just listened in utter terror, trying to keep herself from screaming.
Max: (Stroking Kate's blonde hair) "I know you can hear me, Kate. I know that you're still awake. I saw you out there in the woods, speeding off in Warren's car. You weren't too smart tonight Kate, although I know how smart you really are. You'd be real smart to stay silent about what you saw. Forget you saw anything…"
Max slowly pulled Kate into her arms and held her close, leaning into her ear.
Max: "… or you'll be in my next sex tape, and I know you know exactly what I mean."
Kate: (Squeaks) "But why did you do that, Max? That's not you… I could've helped you…"
Max: "I don't know why I did it… Maybe I thought it would lessen the pain and regret of not making my move on Chloe sooner… Maybe it was just something that I wanted to do all along, Kate." (Staring at Kate) "How much did you see?"
Kate: "Not too much, Max… I only saw enough…"
Max: "Don't lie to me, Kate."
Kate: "Okay, okay… I saw everything…." (Hiccups) "Please, don't hurt me!"
Max: "Kate, I don't wanna hurt you… but I need to guarantee your silence…"
Kate: (Tears begin falling) "Please don't kill me, Max! I'll do anything!"
Max: "Yes, you will." (Looking her over) "Okay, I've got it."
Kate: "What?!"
Max: "Well, you said you'd do anything."
Max sat up, letting the blankets fall off her naked, pale, petite body. She was wearing the strap-on, which was now stained a pale shade of pink. She also wore a ball-bag around her neck, which she slowly removed. Kate looked back at Max, and then down at the strap-on and squealed loudly in horror. Max's smile curled into a crueler one as she tapped the ball-gag against her leg, as if she were deciding what she was going to do. Max then crawled across the bed towards Kate, the hard rubber cock dangling between her legs. She then kissed Kate hard on the lips, hearing another horrified and muffled squeal from Kate.
Max: (Forcing the ball-gag around Kate's head) "Don't be afraid, Kate. It only hurts at first. Then it feels sooo good." (Crawling between Kate's legs) "Now come here."
Kate: (Muffled) "Mn-no! P-please!"
From the outside of Kate's dorm, one could hear a short-muffled scuffle, as well as the tearing of cloth. In the dark, Max had continued to growl like an animal, which was then followed by Kate's muffled, horrified squeals and sobs.
Max: "Shut up, Kate. God, you can be so fucking noisy when you want to be!"
Kate: (Gagged) "Mmmnnooo, Mmmax, mmdon't!"
Max: (Tearing of more cloth) "Let's get the rest of these off." (Pauses) "Oh my, Kate. You have nothing to be shy about. You've got a beautiful body, just like Chloe!"
Kate: (Gagged) "Max, mno…"
Max: (Scuffle) "Now let's just get this off and- Wala!" (Gasps) "PANTY PIE!"
Kate: (Gagged) "Mmmmmm!"
Max: "Now open your legs- I said open your fucking legs!" (Pauses) "Here ya go."
Kate: (Whimpering growing louder into a moan of despair) "Mmmmhmmmm…" (Loud, wet crunch) "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh…." (Gagged) "Mmmnnyaaawww!" (Louder, wet crunch) "Mnnnaiiiieeee!" (Wet crunch) "Nyyyahhhhhmmmm!" (Louder, wet crunch) "Mmmnnnnooo-ohhh-ohhh- oooohh…" (Sobbing loudly)
No one in the girls' dorms was none the wiser as the bed began to thump rhythmically from the other side of the locked door.
Max: "Ahhh, they we go, Kate. Just relax… go with it… atta girl, Kate…" (Smooch) "I love you, Kate…"
Kate: (Sniffling) "Mmmmmmnnnn..." (Sobs) "Mmmmnnnmmmm..."
"THUMP" "THUMP" "THUMP" "THUMP" "THUMP"
Despite the horrors that Kate had only begun to experience that night, the girls in the girls' wing of the Blackwell Academy dorms, with the exception of Max and Kate, slept peacefully as they lay quietly dreaming, in some other place and time.
