The Spanking of Sailor Moon pt.5

"I won't force you. I'll just be expecting you."

It was a few hours after the Sailors' latest battle with The Death Busters. Everyone, with the exception of The Outer Sailors, was in Rei's bedroom at the temple winding down after the day's events. Or at least they were trying to wind down. The only ones in the group sitting were Ami and Minako. Usagi, Rei, and Makoto were lounging- on their bellies.

"I don't believe this!" grumbled Rei. She was dressed in her Shinto priestess robes, quite glad that they were loose fitting. Tenderly she gave her rear a touch. "I 'm still sore from that that-THING!" She glared over to Usagi. "This is all your fault, Usagi!"

Usagi did not answer. She seemed to be preoccupied with her thoughts. Makoto, who had been in the same mess, answered. "Aww come on, Rei. It wasn't all that bad." She rolled over on to her back and sat up. For a few seconds she was still. Then she got this grin on her face and started to giggle. "My grandma hits worse than that daemon could."

Rei was not convinced. "Well that's easy for you to say! My tail still feels like it's on fire." She glanced around at them. "And no jokes about that either!"

"You know Rei," said Minako, "If you all stayed in Sailor mode for awhile it would make soreness go away faster because of our powers."

This had gotten Ami's interest. "That's a good idea, Mina." she said. "But how did you find out about that?"

Minako sat looking rather awkward, but saying nothing. Finally, Artemis, who was also in the room along with Luna, just had to say why. "It's from experience." he announced.

Minako looked quickly at Artemis, shaking her hands wildly. "Oh pay him no mind," she said shakily. "He doesn't know what he is talking about." The cat just looked at her with a curiously evil grin.

"Oh I don't huh!" he said. Artemis then addressed everyone in the room, much to Mina's misery. "You see, back in England, Minako spent more time studying the Headmistress's rug than any other girl there!"

Makoto, rocking back and forth on her sore butt, started to laugh at the image an over the knee Mina. Ami, who also got it, put her hand to her mouth to stop herself from doing it loudly. Rei, her pains suddenly forgotten turned to look at the now fully embarrassed girl. "Oh my!" was all Luna could say. Even Usagi was drawn away from her thoughts. "Minako you did what?!" she asked.

But Artemis was not finished. "Oh yeah," he continued. "In fact she also learned to appreciate the study of fine wood. First by closely observing the fine construction of her Headmistress's desk, while bent over it of course. And the other way was by feel, so to speak."

The giggles in the room grew louder. As did the redness in Mina's face! "Knock it off, Artemis!" she growled.

Oh no! He was too far gone to stop now! "In fact you might say it helped her in the classroom. She was always ready and eager to stand up. It didn't matter if there was a question or not!"

The room exploded in to laughter. Minako sat there like a seething volcano. And, of course, Artemis just would not drop it. "Then there were the rumors. Some girls said Minako would always stand out in a crowd because she could not sit down! Some also said that she was a threat to the school's supply of canes. And that no one knew what got brushed more; The Prefect's hair or Minako."

At this point, Artemis's tirade was interrupted due to the fact that Minako had launched him out the window! "Ok so I was not a perfect angel!" she yelled turning to face her giggling companions.

Then, from the tree that he landed in, Artemis added, "How about that week when you got to sample everything the Headmistress had in her cabinet! And they said cats make a lot of yowling noise!"

The girls fell out on the floor. Usagi, Rei, and Makoto were rolling, their sore butts forgotten. Minako stood there vowing all kinds of revenge on Artemis.

"You know, guys," Usagi said once the laughter finally died down. "I wonder what Haruka meant when she said that she would be expecting me."

Rei just shook her head. "You really don't get it do you." Usagi still looked puzzled. "You are supposed to go to her for… it."

"Now let me get this straight," Usagi said, looking at Rei like she had just grown an extra head. "I'm supposed to go over to her house, drape myself over her knee and let her redecorate my rear?"

Rei shrugged. "Yeah something like that." Now this was something that Usagi just could not accept. Not after the walloping she just went through.

"Well Haruka can just plan to wait all day." she said folding her arms. "I am not going!" No fanfare. No argument. Just four sets of disappointed faces. Usagi read their looks. "Oh I get it. If I don't go all of you will be mad at me." she snorted.

Ami put her hand on Usagi's shoulder trying to comfort her. "It's not that at all, Usagi." All of Usagi's bravado collapsed at that touch. "Facing Haruka, while it may not be easy, is the right thing to do."

"Ok I'll admit it," said Mina. "I was a royal pain back in England. And did I ever get it." She gave a sly grin. "When I got caught! But anyway, I know the hardest thing to do is that long walk to that office and take what is due." Minako gave her own rear a sympathetic rub. "Believe me, I know. But, doing that taught me a few things."

"Like what!" Usagi snapped. "How to take having your rear end beaten in to next week with grace and style?!"

Mina let that pass. She knew that Usagi was scared. She had been too, back then. Every time, and especially that very first time. "Yeah that's about the size of it. You don't know what it was like in an all girl's school. Honing up to what one does is expected and respected. It was practically a school law." Mina shrugged "I know it sounds corny, but that's how I see too."

"And besides" Ami added. "You have faced worse things than this, Usagi." Usagi sat quietly for a moment. Then she stood up.

"I have to go home now," she said. Her voice was low and sad. "I have to think a few things over." She walked out the door without waiting for anyone to say anything, Puzzled, but concerned none the less, Luna followed behind her.

Hours later, Usagi was asleep. The thought of facing that spanking still wracked her mind. She did not know what to do so she decided to sleep on it. As she slept she had a peculiar dream...

She dreamt that she was back at The Moon Kingdom. It was fully populated, and as she looked around, Usagi found that no one could see her. Unknowingly, she found herself heading for the bedrooms.

As she drew near, Usagi heard the sound of someone crying. Following the sound she came across one room that felt familiar. Entering she saw a lovely bedroom, fit for royalty. And there, crying on the bed, was a young girl; herself.

Usagi was shocked. It was her but only she was a little younger, about eleven or so. And she was sobbing on the bed, laying face down. Usagi immediately knew that this younger version of herself had somehow gotten a spanking.

Why would I have been spanked! she thought. She wished that she could comfort her past self in some way. I was a princess here and still am one. Why should I have to go through something like this! As if in response to her question, the bedroom door opened.

Queen Serenity entered the room. Usagi watched as her former self, tears still falling, rose to greet her mother. Serenity quickly walked over and embraced her daughter, guiding back to the bed. As they sat, Usagi saw something that her past self did not. When Queen Serenity sat down, a brief flash of pain crossed her face.

"I am sorry, mama," sobbed the princess. Her head was lying on Serenity's lap. Her hair was being stroked by Serenity "I didn't mean to be so bad."

"It is alright, my darling." cooed Serenity. She let her cool hands caress her daughter's face. "All is forgiven. I am just so sorry that I let you get so out of hand that I had to summon Uranus."

"I was so scared, mama." Her sobs were slowing a little. "B…B… But I did like you told me to. I went to her, as bravely as I could. And I...And I." She started to sob again.

"Shhh, my darling," Serenity's voice soothing her child, "I know it's hard to face some things. Especially things like this. But you did and you went through it. And I know that you will make a fine queen one day." The words struck Usagi's heart like arrows as she watched. There was also something that she noticed. Every once in a while, Queen Serenity would reach back to her own rear and rub it gingerly.

Usagi awoke. It was still dark, hours before she had to be up. There were tears in her eyes. She looked around and saw that Luna was still asleep as was Chibusa; Her erstwhile, semi-brat of a daughter from the future. "Will I be as good a mom as Serenity was?" she thought, reaching down to stroke the pink hair of the sleeping child. Usagi knew her dream was a memory. But seeing it from another point of view gave her new insight, and courage. She had made her decision.

For the first time that she could remember Friday came way faster than normal. For the first time in a long time, Usagi actually got up on time. She was very meticulous that morning. She made herself extra clean, with all her clothing as neat and tidy as possible. Luna, who hadn't a clue all week to Usagi's plan, guessed what was going to happen due to all of the preparations going on. She had seen this before. Chibusa, child that she was, acted predictably.

"Usagi is gonna get a spanking!" she bounced around the bedroom. "Usagi gonna get a spanking!" She stopped her parade when Usagi stepped up right in front of her. Chibusa cringed, expecting a swat, but she just got a pat on her head.

"Yes I am." Usagi said sadly, and went off to school. Chibusa and Luna stood there, staring.

The day went by quickly. Usagi seemed not surprised. She had a brief chat with Naru, her childhood friend and accomplice for that little 'excursion' that landed her in this mess. Finding out that Naru had been punished by her mother that very night. "Yeah it hurt a lot," the red head said "but I understood why she did it. We really shouldn't have went to that part of town. I and guess having a sore bottom is better than what could have happened. Or being grounded." The both of them had a good laugh at that. It also reminded Usagi that she had now one more thing to take care of afterwards.

After school, Rei did her chores at the temple, devout little priestess that she was. As she checked on things she found that someone was in the shrine. To her complete surprise she found it was Usagi, deep in prayer.

With a mixture of admiration, pride and sympathy, Rei quietly watched her. For a few minutes, Usagi knelt at the shrine. Then she got to her feet and turned to see Rei standing there. She gave her a small smile and started to leave. Rei gave her shoulder a squeeze and gave her a kiss on the cheek "Good luck." she said.

On the way to Haruka's apartment, Usagi passed a street vender selling various pieces of clothing. Something had caught her eye. She pointed to the item and bought it.

A lot sooner than she liked, Usagi found herself at Haruka's place. She was about to ring when Michiru stepped out of the door. "Oh hello, Usagi." she said. "I was just stepping out for a few hours. Haruka and I are attending a party and we needed a few things." It was her way of politely saying that she would not be there to witness this.

"Thank you, Michiru." said Usagi, trying to keep her voice from shaking. The girl who was Sailor Neptune then gave her a smile and then went on her way. "You will be alright, Princess." she said as she left.

Swallowing hard, Usagi entered. Haruka was there, but she did not know where. She walked around then spotted an open door. Walking in, Usagi saw it was a large bedroom, thought what she mainly saw was the chair in the middle of the room. And up on the window sill, sitting looking outside, was Haruka.

"I am glad you came, Usagi," she said. "Facing an enemy is one thing. Facing one's consequences is usually far more difficult."

"I know." Usagi said in a small voice. She sat her book bag down next to the dresser. "I don't know how to do this, Haruka." She was trying her best not to burst out in tears and run out the room "Do I say something or..." Her voice trailed off.

Still sitting, Haruka turned to look at her. "Say whatever you think is appropriate, Usagi," she said gently. "There is no set speech for this."

Usagi thought for a moment, wondering what she may have said in her past life and almost wishing for a full scale daemon attack to happen right then and there. She suddenly put her hands behind her back, straightened herself and looked right in to Haruka's eyes(A task all it's own)

"Haruka," she began, " I know I have been very bad and I am sorry for all the trouble I've caused. Because of that, I am here to be punished as you see fit." She could barely keep her voice from shaking. She stood there waiting, hoping that little speech wasn't half has corny as it sounded.

Haruka gave her a small smile, nodded, and rose from the windowsill. "Very well, Princess," she said seating herself on the chair. "I won't go easy on you, but I won't be so bad either. I am glad you did take responsibility for your actions. The mark of a true leader." 'And I'll have quite a few marks soon', thought Usagi. In Haruka's hand was the very hairbrush that was the former daemon known as Brushstar. Haruka noticed Usagi's stare. "I thought why let it go to waste," she answered. She patted her lap. "When you are ready, Usagi"

For a moment Usagi could not move. Then taking a deep breath, she went to Haruka. But before she bent herself over the older girl's lap Usagi reached behind and undid her school skirt, pulling it off. She then folded it and placed it on the bed. She once again stood next to Haruka. Then, steeling herself, Usagi went over her lap.

With help from Haruka, Usagi was adjusted so that she was somewhat comfortable and her bottom was bent perfectly. Usagi could not bring herself to look back. She closed her eyes when she felt her panties being lowered. It was what she expected. She fought down her trembling when she felt the hairbrush's cool surface laying on her rear. And when Haruka had placed her strong arm on her back to help keep her in place, Usagi took a tight hold of the chair legs. "Ready, Usagi?" Haruka asked. Usagi could not speak. She just nodded. A second later the brush was raised from her bottom and then came crashing down.

Usagi gasped! It Hurt! It hurt worse than what that daemon dished out! Her legs kicked up, as well as her head. Then another hit! And then another! And another! Haruka was striking one side at a time, working her way down Usagi's backside, with two maybe three seconds between blows.

Usagi tightened her grip on the chair legs. She was doing her best not to cry out, not to let go and cover herself from the brush. But the pain grew worse with each second and despite herself, she began to whimper at each stroke.

Haruka had to admit that Usagi was handling this better than she had expected. Now she was making little cries, half held in, but not for long. Haruka, for all of her gruff appearance, did feel for the girl. She felt no need to prolong this. She struck faster to hurry this along.

Usagi ceased trying to keep quiet. She squirmed and bucked under the brush, her cries filling the room. But still she hung on to the chair legs. And, much to Haruka's admiration, though she was yelping and crying a storm, she had not once begged for this to stop.

By now Usagi was sure her bottom had been set on fire. She knew that she was jumping about probably way too much. But it hurt so bad! She just could not help herself. Haruka was making her toes curl, her shoes long since flew off. But she had to hang on. But she was tired of looking like a baby. Gathering all her willpower, Usagi made her legs stay down, digging her toes into the rug. This bent her over more, exposing her more to the brush.

Haruka saw what she was doing. She gave a small smile of approval. It was time to end this. She upped her pace once more.

Usagi cried, screamed and sobbed all at once. Her legs she may have been keeping from moving, but her head and shoulders were a different story. They heaved up and down in tune with the brush. "I won't beg!" she cried to herself "I won't beg! I won't beg! I won't beg!" She kept repeating this in her mind so much and was crying so loud , that she did not notice that Haruka had stopped spanking her.

Usagi, still bent over, sobbed causing her shoulders to shake. The spanking had only been about five or six minutes long, but it had felt like hours had passed. "It's ok, Usagi." Haruka said softly. "It's over now." She rubbed Usagi's back to comfort her. It was tempting to just lay there, Usagi felt exhausted, but there was one thing that had to be
taken of.

When she had gathered enough of her courage, Usagi acted. "No it's not over," she said knowing that she was about to add to the inferno that was her rear. "There is still something you have to do, Haruka."

Haruka watched as Usagi got to her feet. "Usagi what do you mean?" she asked. Usagi stood stiffly. Her bottom ached, but she ignored its plea not to do what she had in mind. She pulled up her panties, for now at least, and walked over to her book bag.

"Haruka," her voice sounded so small, "Could you please come over here." Haruka did as Usagi asked. She saw the Usagi had removed a small package from her bag. "I know I'm going to regret this," she said, "Especially after that spanking. But if I am going to be punished, then I might as well go all the way."

"There was one thing that you forgot," Usagi said as she held the package. "I should not have run away from you, from this, the other day." Haruka was about to say something when Usagi cut her off. "No! I should have stayed. Talked about this, and then accepted the outcome. But I ran. That was not very princess-like. So I still have to pay for that." She then gave the package to Haruka.

Opening it, Haruka was startled. It was a belt. A thick, mans leather belt. Haruka held it. It was heavy. She looked down at Usagi. "Are you sure about this, Usagi?" She nodded. Haruka let out a breath. "Very well then, go to the chair and turn it around." Usagi obeyed. As she did, Haruka was trying to ascertain the best way to use the belt since it was kind of thick. And she really did not want to hurt the girl that much." Now pull down your panties and bend over the back of the chair."

Tears trailing down the sides of her cheeks, Usagi again obeyed. While she did that, Haruka decided it was best to wrap the belt around her hand until a foot or so was left. There was no need to double it.

"I am going to give you ten strokes with this, Usagi." she said. "If you get up before I am done or try to block it, I'll have to start over again, understand." Usagi nodded and managed a small "yes."

Haruka looked at the bent over form before her. Usagi's bottom was still very red from the brush. And for her to accept more?! Haruka was truly proud of her. "When you are ready, Usagi," she said.

(To be concluded. Hey this is way longer than I expected!)

"Always see everything my brother."
