Diana walked purposefully up the steps to her second floor walkup, heels clacking sharply. Just as she was about to leave the office, she had received a phone call from Mrs. Jeffries, Drusilla's English teacher. Evidently, Dru had been challenging all the boys in her grade to arm wrestling contests for money. This had gone on for a few days until Mrs. Jeffries caught her, and admonished her that gambling on school property was strictly forbidden. Dru had received a week's worth of after school detention, and had brought home a letter that had to be signed by Diana and brought back the next day.
Diana opened the door to the apartment. "Drusilla!" She yelled, "come out here please." Hearing Diana use her full name, Drusilla blanched. Diana always called her Dru or Sis when they were hanging out. Dru knew she was in huge trouble.
Not wanting to upset Diana further, Dru stood from where she had been laying on the bed reading, and silently walked out into the kitchen. "Yes Diana?" Dru responded reverently. "Where's the letter?" Diana asked with a dangerous edge to her voice. Dru briefly considered lying, but thought better of it. "I'll go get it, ma'am," she replied softly. A few moments later, Dru returned holding a piece of paper in Mrs. Jeffries handwriting reiterating once again Drusilla's misdeeds. Diana worked to keep her temper under control as she finished reading. "Do you have anything to say for yourself, little girl?" Dru looked down and the floor and scuffed the toe of her shoe guiltily. "I - I was just having a little fun, Diana. Honest!" Diana looked at her sharply but softened as Drusilla demurred. "Dru listen, I know you were just messing around, but we can't risk anyone here knowing why you and I are so strong. I'm going to let you off with just a warning this time, but I don't want to hear about you getting into any more trouble at school. Do you understand, young lady?" Drusilla crinkled her nose at the motherly admonition, but acquiesced; "yes ma'am." Diana pulled Dru into a hug, then sent her to do her homework with a light swat to the seat of her skirt.
The next day, Steve and Diana finished work earlier than they had planned. Diana decided to surprise Dru by picking her up from school. As she pulled into the parking lot of the high school, Diana looked around eagerly for Dru. Her eagerness was quickly replaced by fury when she found her. Diana watched as Dru, who was over by the bushes, soundly defeated a boy in a football jersey at arm wrestling. Taking a dollar bill from the boy, Dru turned. Her victorious grin quickly dissolved into silent panic when she laid eyes on her sister staring daggers at her across the parking lot. Dru briefly considered running, but she knew she could never outrun Diana and stalling would only anger her sister more. Shakily, she walked over to the car where Diana stood with her arms folded across her chest. "Diana -" Dru began, but was quickly cut off. "I don't want to hear a single word out of you, young lady. Is that clear?" Dru gulped and silently nodded as she opened the car door and stepped in.
The ride home was deathly silent. When they pulled into the parking lot of Diana's building, she put the car in park and turned off the engine. "Drusilla I want you to listen to me and listen good. You are going to march yourself upstairs to your room and wait for me while I cool off. When I am in control of my emotions, you are going to get the spanking of your life." Dru blanched "Diana I-" Diana whipped around furiously with a look that stopped Dru in her tracks. "Now, Drusilla." Knowing better than to provoke her sister further, Drusilla silently exited the car and walked into Diana's apartment proceeding straight to her room.
Dru felt as though she had been waiting for Diana for hours. However, in reality, only about 30 minutes elapsed before Diana walked into the room and shut the door behind her. In her hand, Diana held a dark, wooden paddle. Dru shivered when she spotted it. Diana's paddle was made from the wood of a tree grown only on Paradise Island. It was the hardest wood in the world, this spanking was going to hurt.
"I'm very disappointed in your behavior, young lady." Diana positioned herself directly in front of Drusilla and lifted her chin so the sisters' eyes met. "Not only did you break the school policy regarding gambling, you deliberately defied me." A silent tear leaked out of Dru's eye and down her cheek. She hated disappointing her big sister. And all over a stupid thing like arm wrestling. Diana noticed the remorse in Drusilla's face but continued with her scolding. "Drusilla, one of my conditions for you coming to live with me here in Washington was that you obeyed my rules. And we agreed that there would be consequences for breaking those rules, correct?" Unable to nod, Drusilla let out a soft "yes, Diana." Diana nodded a short nod of approval at Dru's submissiveness. "You're going to receive fifty licks with my paddle and then you are grounded for two weeks. You also have to return every dollar you won off of those boys, is that clear?" Upon hearing that she had to return the money, Drusilla began to protest but quickly stopped when she saw her sister quirk an eyebrow. "Yes ma'am" Dru practically whispered.
With that, Diana took Drusilla firmly by the upper arm and guided her across the bed. Drusilla felt her heart begin to race with fear as her sister lifted her skirt and lowered her panties. Tensing in anticipation, Dru let out a surprised squeal at the first, sharp lick of the paddle. That damn paddle hurt and Diana wasn't going easy on her. However, Drusilla was determined to accept her punishment without a fuss to prove to her sister that she was indeed sorry. After fifteen licks, Dru began to sob openly. After thirty, she went limp across the mattress. It took her several minutes after the fiftieth stroke to realize that her spanking had been replaced with Diana gently rubbing her back and whispering words of praise to her. As she struggled to regain her focus she heard "such a good girl, Dru. You accepted your punishment like a true Amazon. It's over, sis." Hearing her sister's voice once more restored with tender kindness, Dru sat up and then laid her head in Diana's lap. "I-I'm s-s-sorry!" Dru stuttered raggedly through her tears. "Shhhhh," Diana responded as she brushed some hair from Dru's face, "you're completely forgiven." Dru felt herself beginning to grow heavy. The next thing she knew, Diana was gently shaking Dru awake. "Wake up, sleepyhead! I made your favorite for dinner!" Dru opened her eyes and smiled when she smelled grilled cheese and tomato soup. Rising from the bed, she and Diana walked arm in arm into the kitchen. Dru noticed that on her chair was one of the small cushions from the sofa. She looked gratefully at Diana, who responded with a wink. As she sat down, even with the protection of the cushion, Dru winced as the bruises were irritated. She groaned internally, realizing that she'd be sleeping on her stomach tonight.
