Iron hand (a Miki story) chapter 4

(This is part of a multi-chapter story, if you haven't read the first one, go to https://pastebin.com/gtbQ1W11 or click my name 'MREN' on the top left, to continue where you're at in the story!)

Five minutes had passed since the first bell of the day. The library was silent as usual, the students being in class. Well, most of the students; Hanako was sitting on her beanbag, pondering which book to read, of the three she grabbed from the fantasy section. It wasn't her beanbag per se... But Yuuko has never seen anyone else sit on it, and most of the students - those who frequented the library, anyway - knew it for Hanako's. It was usually quiet for an hour and a half, no one coming in the library until the end of the first class, and even then, it usually was only a few students who forgot to bring their books back to the library and did it between their two morning classes.

So, it was a surprise to Yuuko when someone walked in, without any book in hand. Perhaps she needed a book for a class, and the teacher sent her here? Whoever it was, for whatever the reason, Yuuko had to do her job;

Yuuko: 'Welcome to Yamaku's library! How may I help you?'
Miki: 'Sup? Officer Miki, on duty. I'm just making my morning round. It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it right?'
Yuuko: 'Pleased to meet you, I'm Yuuko, the librarian! And I know what you mean, Mi... Officer? I work two jobs as well and-'
Miki: 'Good talk, girl! But I need to get to it.'
Yuuko: 'Oh, of course! Be sure to ask if you need anything!'

Truth be told, Yuuko had no idea what this strange girl was hoping to find during her morning round, but it was not her place to pry.

Miki: 'Well, I'm trying to find delinquents, you haven't seen one today, have you?'
Yuuko: 'Delinquents? I doubt delinquents would frequent the library!'
Miki: 'Yeah, you may be right. Doesn't hurt to look though!'
Yuuko: 'Of course not. Now that you mention it, we've had some books missing lately, I suspect they've been stolen. The thief is prob...'

Yuuko stopped herself, not wanting to accuse anyone without proofs, especially not... him.

Miki: 'Yeah?'
Yuuko: 'Nothing. Don't worry.'
Miki: 'Spit it out! The thief is?'
Yuuko: 'I-I meant to say hmm... The thief is prob- probably selling those books! Yes.'
Miki: 'Yeah sure. Anyway, I'm late, see ya!'
Yuuko: 'Oh, sure! Please come again!'

Yuuko was glad this conversation was over, but to her surprise, Miki didn't leave, and rather went further in the library, looking in the aisles. Realizing she didn't put an end to their conversation to leave the library, but rather to complete her round, Yuuko considered saying something to make up for her misplaced farewells, but ended up saying nothing; Miki already being twenty feet away, she would have to yell anyway, and Yuuko wasn't willing to do this, in or even outside the library. Miki didn't seem to care much either way and was simply walking the aisles one by one, making sure no one was hiding somewhere, until... She found her.

Miki: 'Well, what do we have here?'
Hanako: 'H-Hello?'
Miki: 'Don't you have class this morning? You're ten minutes late!'
Hanako: 'I-it's o-ok the t-teachers l-let me d-d-do it!'

Yuuko had walked closer to listen to them, feeling protective of Hanako. She knew about Hanako's stuttering, but it seemed to be much worse now; This girl, this Miki, was scaring her. And of course she was, staring straight at her, talking to her like that, without any introduction. Yuuko pondered walking in to help defuse the situation, but eventually decided to wait behind a bookshelf and listen some more.

Miki: 'Well I'm not the teacher, am I?'
Hanako: 'W-who are y-you?'
Miki: 'Officer Miki, huh, punitive officer. Wait it wasn't punitive, but it was something like that I think. Discipline? Disciplinary officer, that's who I am!'
Hanako: 'You're in my c-class, I think? N-nice to m-meet you I'm Han- H-Hana-'
Miki: 'You're in trouble Hana, that's what you are!'
Hanako: 'In t-trouble?'

Before Miki could explain, a large pile of books fell to the floor from that shelf Yuuko was leaning on, edging closer to try and hear their conversation better. She hurriedly picked them up to replace them on the shelf.

Yuuko: 'My bad, my bad!'
Miki: 'Take your time, Yukie!'
Yuuko: 'Oh, I misspoke, my name is actually Yuuko!'
Miki: 'Ah, Yukie's much better. Anyway, where was I? Oh yeah. Hana, you're coming with me!'
Hanako: 'W-why? Where?'
Yuuko: 'Miki, I mean... Officer! Hanako comes here often during class hours, she's allowed to and-'
Miki: 'Well, not anymore! Under my supervision, students go to class on time. Every class, every day.'
Yuuko: 'Oh... I see.'

Yuuko was trying her best to come up with something else to say in Hanako's defense, but came up empty, and could only watch Hanako stand up slowly, pale and frightened, and Miki taking her arm to escort her like she was a prisoner walking to her execution; With regret, Yuuko watched them leave the library, then she returned to her books.

Hanako: 'M-my c-cla class i-is-'
Miki: 'Your class is not where we're going now.'
Hanako: 'B-but you said s-students h-had to-'
Miki: 'I said students had to go to class on time. That's what you had to do ten minutes ago. It's too late now, you're coming to the student council room.'
Hanako: 'O-Ok.'

Under normal circumstances, the prospect of going to the student council room, to Shizune and Misha, would've worried her... But now, she welcomed anything over spending any more time with this Miki person, who looked her in the eyes, touched her without warning, and seemed quite a rude person, overall; Not that she'd ever tell her that, of course.

They reached their destination after a few minutes, and when Miki opened the door to lead Hanako inside, the room was empty;

Hanako: 'W-where is S-Shizune?'
Miki: 'Shizune's not here. It's just me!'
Hanako: 'Y-you're in charge of the absence r-reports?'
Miki: 'Nah. I mean yeah, but I'm going to do it later tonight I guess.'
Hanako: 'T-then why are we h-here?'
Miki: 'Let's put it this way... I'm judge, jury, and executioner. Your ass is toast.'
Hanako: 'W-w-what?'
Miki: 'Well, if it isn't now, it's gonna be soon anyway. You're not much of a runner, are you? We can do it standing then. Hands on the table, legs spread.'

Hanako didn't quite know how to react, but she obeyed the commands, expecting a bodily search for prohibited items. Wearing a skirt, she couldn't spread her legs much, but Miki lifted it high, past her waist, exposing the opaque pantyhose that covered her white cotton panties, and made Hanako spread her legs much more than she originally did; Hanako turned her head to look back at her, but couldn't voice a word;

Her voice came back to her when she felt Miki's hand on her ass for the first time.

Hanako: 'W-what are you doing?'
Miki: 'Punishing you!'

She slapped her ass again, twice, and Hanako couldn't keep herself from yelping both times;

Hanako: 'Y-You can't do t-this!'

Miki spanked her once more, bringing another cry of pain out of Hanako;

Miki: 'Says who? Seems to me I can!'

Hanako tried to come up with something to say, but found nothing, and resigned herself to take it. She waited until Miki's next spank, before asking her...

Hanako: 'How many m-more?'
Miki: 'Well, funny thing is, I forgot my rule sheet! So I'm gonna go with say... Ten for skipping a class, ten for stealing books, so twenty, how's that sound?'
Hanako: 'T-that's too much! And I d-didn't steal any b-books!'
Miki: 'Keep whining and lying, and it's gonna be thirty.'

And with this threat, Hanako kept silent, or at least, wasn't talking anymore... Thinking, trying to figure out how this girl could possibly believe Hanako was guilty of any book theft; But every time Miki's hand came in contact with her ass, Hanako cried out in pain and trembled, more with each hit; Her legs shook, and she could barely support herself on the table. Five hits, seven, nine... Hanako didn't say a word.

Miki: 'Is that it? You got nothing else to say?'
Hanako: 'N-no.'
Miki: 'Man, this isn't fun. You need some fight in you.'

She was trying to provoke her, but Hanako didn't reply anything, either too shy to speak her mind, or too smart to take the bait. Miki spanked her one last time, barely putting any weight into it, then pulled her skirt back;

Miki: 'Whatever, that's fine. Ten's good enough. One per minute you were late! You're boring to spank anyway.'

She considered what she said, then added;

Miki: 'But don't think it means I'll forget you! If you skip classes again, I'll be back for you! And if you know what's good for you, you'll bring the stolen books back to the library, and I'll pretend it never happened.'
Hanako: 'O-Okay...'

She didn't want to deny it again, and risk getting into an argument, or... Worse.

Miki: 'Now let's get back to class!'

...

When Miki opened the door to class 1-3 and entered, Mutou stopped speaking and looked in her direction, like he was about to say something. But when Hanako followed behind her, eyes down, looking at the floor, a smile appeared on his face;

Mutou: 'Miura. Glad you could make it today! Ikezawa. It's nice to see you're making friends!'

Neither Miura nor Hanako said anything, and they quickly walked to their seat. Mutou apparently didn't know about the deal yet, but Shizune knew what this late join was about; She looked at Miki and gave a silent nod, a tiny smile on her lips.

This class was mostly an introduction speech. He would be their teacher for their next three years at Yamaku, going through physics, biology... Miki stopped paying attention halfway through, his monotone voice could put an insomniac to sleep. Well, she had better get used to it, she was stuck with him for a long time. Unless she got herself kicked out of the school for good, of course.

Thankfully, that business with Hanako took some time, so the rest of the class wasn't that hard to endure, and when the bell rang, Miki sprang to her feet and walked out of the class; Last to join, first to leave. That's how she liked it. She headed straight for the student council room. She kinda liked the place; Perfect room temperature, and she was already forging nice memories in there. Plus, it was often empty. Miki didn't enjoy the other student's company all that much, and she had yet to make any friend. She didn't care though. She wasn't much of a socialite, and enjoyed her alone time. She was still reflecting on this a few minutes later, thinking about all that happened since her coming to Yamaku when the door opened, and a tall blonde girl entered the room, a white cane before her; She seemed concerned, perhaps angry about something. Or maybe that's just how she looked. Miki had never seen her before, but she was followed by two more familiar faces, Shizune and Misha;

Lilly: 'Miss... Miura?'
Miki: 'Could be.'
Lilly: 'I'm Lilly Satou, representative of class 1-2. Might we have a word?'
Miki: 'Sure, if you take that stick off your ass. What's up?'

Lilly took a moment to assess the situation, and the girl in front of her. She always considered herself a great judge of character, and this Miki seemed quite transparent.

Lilly: 'I've had a discussion with my friend, Hanako Ikezawa. She told me a disturbing tale, and I hoped you could tell me what really happened here?'

Lilly knew exactly what happened there, of course; She knew Hanako wouldn't lie about something like that. She only wanted to hear Miki's version, as a starting point for the conversation.

Miki: 'She was about to skip classes, but I brought her back on the right track, I'm a good person like that. Still, she was late, so she had to be punished.'
Lilly: 'And how did this punishment occur?'
Miki: 'I spanked her. That's my duty, as officer of... whatever. '
Lilly: 'And who exactly put you in charge?'

Miki was about to answer, but Shizune shook her head to stop her, and signed to Misha;

Misha: 'Miki is a new member of the student council. She is our disciplinary officer, and she is in charge of administering corporal punishment, when necessary.'
Lilly: 'And who decides when it is necessary?'
Misha: 'There is a rule sheet with all infractions and appropriate punishment. You would know if you were still a member of the student council, wahaha!'

Lilly ignored Shizune's jab;

Lilly: 'Do you have it here?'

Miki, well aware of Lilly's blindness, grabbed a random sheet of paper from a budget report folder and handed it to Lilly.

Miki: 'There you go!'

Lilly's fingers brushed the top of the sheet, to determine whether it was in braille, and handed it back when she found out it wasn't.

Lilly: 'Could you please read it to me?'
Miki: 'Sure hmm... Give me a minute... Infraction one... Skipping classes. Punishment, twenty hits. Infraction two... You know what, I don't have my reading glasses at the moment. But it's fine, I got them all memorized anyway.'
Lilly: 'Oh? Could you recite them to me then?'
Miki: 'Why?'

Lilly was almost convinced that Miki was lying to her, and Miki knew it too. But without someone to read it, she couldn't prove it, and the two other people present were on Miki's side, so there was no risk for her.

Lilly: 'Well, as a class representative, I am concerned about what kind of disciplinary techniques are now used in the school.'
Miki: 'Tell you what, if you break the rules you'll find out soon enough.'
Lilly: 'Still, I would like to-'
Miki: 'You would like to whine about your friend getting disciplined, I get it. Well, your friend is going to class now. She's learning about sciences and shit, instead of reading books about spaceships and prince charming and whatever the fuck she's reading about. Bet you she's in class tomorrow too. And the next day. Bet you she won't skip classes anymore. And I made this happen in ten minutes. Seems to me, that's more than you achieved as a class representative. Or as her friend.'

Lilly had been trying to contain her anger since Hanako told her, but this last remark angered her. Still, she tried to keep her composure;

Lilly: 'What you are doing here is unacceptable. It has to stop.'
Misha: 'The actions of-'
Miki: 'It has to stop? Ok. You stop me, Blondie.'

More than ever, Lilly looked like she was about to unleash at her, but she let a moment pass, collecting herself and thinking about her next move, then turned around to leave.

Lilly: 'Miura. Shizune, Misha. Have a good day.'

She made a move to leave, but her cane came in contact with Shizune and Misha, who were still standing in front of the door.

Lilly: 'May I?'

Shizune signed quickly for Misha;

Misha: 'Seems to me she is about to try and put an end to our little experiment, Miki. Sad it has to stop so soon...'
Miki: 'That's what you're doing, Blondie? You gonna rat on us?'
Lilly: 'I will discuss with the headmaster about the student council members abusing Yamaku's students, yes.'
Miki: 'Can't let that happen.'

She walked to Lilly and passed her left arm around her waist; Even her bad arm was enough to handle someone like her. With her right hand, she took Lilly's cane and placed it on a table nearby. Shizune, satisfied with this turn of event she provoked, left the room, Misha in tow, and closed the door behind them.

Miki: 'You know, there's a purpose to what we're doing. Maybe you don't understand it, but I'm gonna show you.'
Lilly: 'What I understand is that you beat an innocent, scared girl. Fragile girl. Do you know she sees a therapist? Do you believe your action helped her?'
Miki: 'Maybe? I don't know. Parents spank their misbehaving children, is it that bad? It can be therapeutic. As far as I know, therapy guy didn't get her back to class any more than you did. Hell, maybe I should be the therapist from now on, what do you think about that?'

Fully aware by now about how futile it was to argue with her, Lilly moved to a different topic;

Lilly: 'So what are we doing here?'
Miki: 'Well, I'm gonna show you how I can help people as a disciplinary officer.'

Lilly bit her lower lip in nervousness, something she hadn't done in years... She tried to keep her voice calm, not show any fear;

Lilly: 'You are going to spank me.'

Miki: 'There you go! See, you're already smarter than you were ten minutes ago! Man, I'm good.'
Lilly: 'And on what charges, may I ask? What rule have I broken, by coming in here, concerned about the well being of my friend?'
Miki: 'I'll figure it out later. There's got to be something about I don't know... Trying to undermine my authority? Obstruction to justice, something like that?'
Lilly: 'This is ridiculous, and you know it. The headmaster will never allow it. And even if he did, it goes beyond that. You could hurt someone. Expose the school to a lawsuit. The school, or yourself.'

The threat was obvious, but Miki didn't pay much heed. She didn't leave Lilly's side for a second either.

Miki: 'Nah, I'm good at this. I know exactly what strength to use. You'll find out! Plus, a bit of practice on a healthy student like you, it'll prepare me for the more difficult cases!'
Lilly: 'This is demented. Please let me leave. Let's talk-'
Miki: 'You're boring me. Let's get it done... You want to do it peaceful? Or you want to fight for it?'
Lilly: 'I am not gonna fight you, nor will you hear me cry or beg for mercy, if that is your question.'
Miki: 'Fine by me! Off with the skirt, please!'

When she refused to comply, Miki dropped it to her ankles, and Lilly had no choice but to raise her legs to allow Miki to take the skirt away, lest she'd risk tripping on it.

Miki: 'You know, I was thinking just five... But keep acting like that and it's gonna be ten.'

The first spank landed on Lilly's panties and surprised her; Not only she had no idea what Miki's spanking ritual was like, but being blind meant she didn't know when to expect it, when to brace for impact. The second hit didn't shock nearly as much, but still caught her unaware; Miki was circling around Lilly, observing her, sometimes even faking movement to play with her. The third spank was on Lilly's right ass cheek, and with more strength, startling Lilly, almost making her jump. Miki moved back and looked at her;

Miki: 'You've got a nice ass on you girl, you know that? Anyone else ever touched it, or am I the first? That'd be quite the honor.'

Lilly refused to waste any more word on a lost cause, and only waited for this to be over.

Miki: 'Silent treatment, really? I thought we were getting along just fine, but seems not?'

Miki kneeled behind her, dropped Lilly's panties and took them away, just like the skirt. With this followed the fourth spank, then the fifth. Without any clothes between Miki's hand and Lilly's sensitive skin, every spank stung her more, but she tried her best not to let it show, not to give Miki the satisfaction of screaming or crying. When the sixth and seventh spanks came in though, she couldn't hold it;

Lilly: 'Oww! I thought it was supposed to be just five?'
Miki: 'Yeah... I thought so too, but you're too much fun to punish!'

Miki spanked her once more and watched her ass turn red.

Miki: 'I think I just figured out why I didn't enjoy spanking Hanako!'

She stayed silent then, waiting for Lilly's curiosity to force her to reply.

Lilly: 'Oh?'

Miki smiled, though Lilly couldn't see it;

Miki: 'Got you, hah! And it wasn't as fun because of the pantyhose! I couldn't see the result, so it felt pointless. But with you...'

She spanked her again rapidly, twice on each side, then watched the red spreading, almost covering her entire ass now.

Miki: 'Damn, I could do this for hours...'

She passed her hand on Lilly's ass, not really like a caress, more like... Observing the damage with her hand instead of her eyes.

Miki: 'Would you like me to?'
Lilly:'Is it over? Disciplinary officer?'

The venom in Lilly's voice hung in the air. She wasn't trying as hard to hide it now, and Miki felt it; If Lilly hadn't been blind, she would've hit her, she was pretty sure. That would've made things worse for her, but she would've tried anyway; She was obviously furious. She gave her one last spank, a weak one, just to show her she didn't care much what she thought, what she felt... Then she helped her put her panties back on, and her skirt, but not before planting a quick kiss on the reddest area on her ass;

Miki: 'There, I kissed it better. So, no hard feeling?'
Lilly: 'Have a good day, officer.'

Lilly adjusted her panties and skirt properly, then walked out. Outside the room, Shizune and Misha had been waiting for her;

Misha: 'How was it, class rep? Did you like it?'

Even if Misha translated, Lilly knew who the words came from;

Lilly: 'I'm glad you are amused by this, Shizune. Let's hope the headmaster finds this as amusing.'
Misha: 'Wahaha! I don't think so.'
Lilly: 'What do you mean?'
Misha: 'I mean that the headmaster already knows! It was his idea.'

Not exactly how it happened, but it's close enough. Shizune signed again.

Misha: 'Let me be perfectly clear. These new disciplinary measures are here to stay. If you want to avoid being on the receiving end, follow the rules, and obey the student council. Oh and one last thing, you better make sure to meet the deadlines for your budget reports, in the future. We wouldn't want to have to use Miki again, wouldn't we? On you, or... Hanako?'

Their threats against Lilly didn't seem to affect her that much, but now they'd found her weak spot; Lilly would never let Hanako suffer anything unjustly. Of course, as harsh as Shizune could be at times, she would never punish someone else to hurt Lilly... And she didn't have anything against Hanako. But Lilly didn't have to know that. Just like they weren't sure Miki could care enough about the student council to get back on Lilly's case over a late budget report... But as long as Lilly didn't know, the threat seemed real enough. Lilly was determined not to officially concede victory, but it was clear she resigned herself now;

Lilly: '...May I leave?'
Misha: 'You may! Stay out of trouble now, wahaha!'

Lilly out of the way, they went back to Miki; They had work to do, after all.

Misha: 'Time to work on these reports now!'
Miki: 'Sure, bring it on!'

She was smiling, happy, just like she was yesterday; But when Shizune walked by her, Miki allowed herself to slap her on the thigh, just below her ass; Not hard enough to hurt, but still enough to sting. Shizune frowned, and signed quickly to Misha;

Misha: 'Miki! Physical contacts between students are not permitted in Yamaku!'
Miki: 'You serious?'
Misha: 'Your... Disciplinary duties are allowed, yes, but not against the president of the student council! I am your immediate superior! I mean Shicchan is. Not me.'
Miki: 'Fine, fine, boss. Let's get to work.'

And so they went back to work, filling in paperwork for an hour or two. Shizune's mind was occupied though... On one hand, they had the headmaster and Lilly in their pocket now, this was good. No one else was like to oppose them. But on the other hand, Miki was taking more and more liberties. Shizune liked her more as a reliable tool than an unleashed vigilante... Could she still control her? And if she couldn't... What's the worse that could happen? Where could it all go wrong?
