Friday's Final Lesson By Littlesilverstar, silverstar222b@yahoo.com Young female professor gives an unusual out-of-class lesson NOTE: The heroine of this story is based on one of my college professors. This story, of course, is a work of fiction, but I've kept her first name and the major details about her are similar to the real woman. She certainly inspired me, in many ways. "...by using women as well as men in their armies, the ancient Celts were able to greatly increase the reach of their military," said Monica. The thirty-three-year-old history professor paused, then added with a smile, "Also, the female warriors would often go into battle completely naked, which of course caused a serious distraction for the enemy." She paused again, still smiling, as she looked at the reactions of her students. "Are there any more questions?" A young man with blond hair raised his hand. "That sounds pretty cool," he said. "How come more civilizations weren't like that?" "Well," said Monica, "as we've been learning, there were a fair number of cultures that made use of female warriors, more than most historians like to admit. But yes, it's also true that the majority of cultures excluded women from their armies. The misguided ideology of patriarchy, and the insecurity of most kings and rulers, was the cause of that." A young woman with long brown hair spoke up. "Patriarchy is for people with small minds and small...you know," she said, eliciting giggles from most of the class. She continued, "If a woman can show that she can fight as well as a man, wouldn't it be to a ruler's advantage to let her join his army?" "That's right, it would be," said Monica. "But many rulers allow their pride and their biases to cloud their judgement. That's why many rulers of that type end up losing power and, in many cases, their lives." "I think there's a very good reason for not letting women fight," came a voice from the back row. The speaker was an ugly young man with black hair. Monica had always had a bad feeling when she looked at him, and now she knew why. He continued, "Men are the ones who are made for fighting. Women are smaller and weaker than men, and they should devote themselves to feminine pursuits, as nature intended them to." This comment elicited shouts and protests from several of the female students, including the woman with the long brown hair who had spoken earlier. Before a battle could break out in the classroom, Monica held out her hands for quiet. "What was just said was certainly controversial," she said. "But we're just about out of time for today. We can continue this debate when we come back to class on Monday. Have a good weekend and don't forget the assigned reading, which is chapters 6 and 7." The students stood up and filed out of the classroom. Monica noticed the student who had made the sexist comments scowling as he left. After all the students were gone, she gathered up her things and headed for her office. She had a lot of work to do. It was several hours later when she was finally finished with the day's work. The sun had already set and the campus was cloaked in darkness. Monica, after leaving her office, stopped briefly in the bathroom to freshen up a bit. She paused to glance at herself in the mirror. Her tight black pants and sleeveless white top showed off her attractive body. At 5'6" and 140 pounds, she was an average-sized woman, but she had distinctly powerful shoulders and a nice, slender waist. She combined a feminine figure with muscular legs, well-developed biceps, thick and powerful forearms, and hard, solid abs. Her small, firm breasts stood proudly on her chest and looked larger than they actually were thanks to her strong chest muscles. Shoulder-length dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, and a deep tan completed the (sexy) picture. It was no surprise that she was hit on quite often, both by her colleagues and by her students. Monica headed out to her car, which was parked in a garage across campus. As she walked along a deserted pathway and passed a cluster of trees, three men suddenly jumped out in front of her. One was tall and muscular, another was husky and bald, and the third was thin and of medium height. All three were wearing masks. "Get out of here. Go home," she said. The men laughed. "Let's get her," said the tall man. He advanced on her from the front, while the other two moved towards her from the sides. Monica's self-defense (and gymnastic) training kicked in. As soon as the men began advancing, she launched herself into a fast series of back handsprings, flipping out of the immediate danger zone. Landing perfectly on her feet after half a dozen handsprings, she positioned herself in a fighting stance. The bald man and the thin man were rushing towards her, with the tall man right behind them. She fired a powerful roundhouse kick to the side of the thin man's head. It connected with a brutal impact and caused him to collide with the bald man. Both of them went down in a heap. The tall man let out an angry roar and swung a punch at her face. She avoided it easily by ducking. He swung another punch, which she dodged. She then delivered a knee to his groin, causing him to emit a high- pitched squeal. She followed it up with a punch to his jaw and a spin kick to the side of his head, knocking him to the ground. A pair of arms grabbed her from behind. "I've got her!" said the bald man, who had made it back to his feet. The thin man, who had also by now gotten up, approached her to attack. She knocked him backwards with a kick to the chest. She then simultaneously swung her head backward into the bald man's and stomped hard on his foot. With a shriek of pain, he released her. She alternated her attention between the two men, first smashing her elbow into the bald man's face, then delivering a strong side kick to the thin man's gut, then launching a back kick into the bald man's midsection. Pausing to admire her work, she saw that both men were stumbling around, doubled over in pain. She sent the thin man to the ground with a powerful uppercut, then knocked the bald man down with three quick kicks to the face. Looking around, Monica saw that the tall man was just getting back to his feet. Before he could attack, she flipped towards him with a front tuck followed by a cartwheel. As she cartwheeled, her feet smashed one after the other into the tall man's head, knocking him back down. As she landed on her feet, he began getting up again. He didn't get very far, however, because she delivered a brutal knee to his face, knocking him back to the ground. Blood from his nose stained his mask. Gripping him by the back of the neck, she held him up and kneed him in the face three more times, more blood from him splattering and staining his mask further each time. As he went down after the final knee, she sighed with satisfaction. A growl came from behind her. Monica turned around quickly, her pony- tailed dark brown hair swinging around after her. The thin man was still lying on the ground, but the bald man had gotten up and was standing close to her. She could have sworn that he had an evil grin on his face under his mask. He reached into his coat and produced a .45-caliber semi-automatic pistol from a shoulder holster. Monica acted instantly. Before he could aim the gun, she performed a lightning-fast crescent kick that knocked the gun out of his hand and sent it sailing through the air. As he stood there, shocked that she had disarmed him so easily, she drove her knee into his fat gut. As he stumbled around moaning in pain, she performed a pretty but extremely powerful backflip kick on him, sending him to the ground. She then kicked him in the head as if she was kicking a soccer ball. She kicked him in the head again, then grabbed him and wrapped her lethal thighs around his neck. She began squeezing him tightly. "Thought you could just kill me, loser?" she asked. "Think again." The bald man tried to pry her thighs loose with his hands, but his feeble attempts were no match for her muscular and deadly legs. The helpless man began gasping and thrashing as his air was cut off. She squeezed harder and harder, then suddenly twisted her hips 180 degrees, snapping her opponent's neck. She stood over the corpse and said to herself, "That felt good." Bending over and removing his mask, she saw that his face had become covered with shades of blue and purple. A noise came from behind her. The tall man was halfway to his feet. Monica calmly walked over to him and delivered an incredibly strong kick to his groin. Her legs were strong enough to allow her to kick a 45-yard field goal, so any body part that was on the receiving end of her kicks was in deep shit. The tall man shrieked like a little girl when Monica's boot impacted his manhood. Clutching his wounded family jewels, he collapsed in a heap. The tall man sat up with a whimper, then a growl. "I'm gonna choke you to death, you little bitch," he snarled. "Then get up and do it, you ugly asshole," she responded. "If you're man enough to try. But I guess you're not much 'man' anymore, after that kick," she snickered. He growled like a wild animal and slowly got to his feet. Before he could attack, Monica delivered a brutal kick to his knee. The sound of bone shattering was accompanied by a howl of pain from her opponent as he collapsed to the ground. She walked over to him and stomped hard on his broken knee, grinding down with her foot. His howls of pain became even louder. She turned her head and saw that the thin man was starting to get up. Kicking the tall man in the head and knocking him out in the process, she said with a smirk, "Don't run away. I'm not quite through with you yet." Monica turned her attention to the thin man. "Finally decided to get up, huh?" she said. "Good. I've been giving your friends a good lesson and I wouldn't want you to miss out on the fun." As she spoke, she fired a quick jab to his face. He growled in pain and tried to swing a punch of his own at her, but she blocked it with her thick forearm. As he began swinging another punch, she grabbed his arm and twisted it hard. He began squealing like a little girl. Monica laughed. "You're just not made to be a fighter, are you, you little prick," she said. "Sheesh, look how big my arms are compared to yours, and I'm a girl." Her thick, strong, tanned wrists and forearms stood in sharp contrast to his small, skinny, pale ones. Still laughing, she socked him hard in the gut. As he bent over with an "oomph," she delivered an amazing-looking high kick to his jaw. The force of her kick shattered his jawbone. He stumbled around, making muffled noises. Balancing on her left leg, she then began battering his face with a barrage of fast but brutal kicks from her right leg. After about nine or ten kicks, his muffled noises had become whimpering, high-pitched squeals. He was almost out on his feet. Finally, Monica delivered a lovely spin kick to his head, knocking the thin man out. He landed face down on the grass. The tall man was beginning to make noises again. Monica walked over to him. "Your turn," she said as he shook his head dizzily and began climbing to his feet. She ripped his mask off, revealing her opponent to be an ugly, scar-faced man. She then added to that ugliness by slamming her fist right into his eye. The tall man let out an enraged roar, both at being hit and at having his identity revealed. He reached out to try to choke her, but Monica, taking advantage of her fast reflexes, grabbed both of his arms and twisted them, then kicked him in the chest. Releasing his arms, she began pummeling his face with powerful punches. After about a dozen brutal hits from her, his bloody face looked as if it had been run over by a large SUV. She fired one more punch at him, a brutal right to the jaw that sent him to the ground. Monica began launching powerful kicks to her downed opponent's ribs. Her kicks were accompanied by the sound of bones cracking and screams of pain from the tall man. After about seven or eight kicks, he lay still. His unmoving body formed a neat trio with those of the unconscious thin man and the dead bald man. Monica walked across the grass, searching for the .45 that the bald man had been carrying. Finding the pistol on a patch of crabgrass, she picked it up and examined it. "That moronic bald man didn't even keep a round in the chamber," she thought to herself as she pulled the slide back and released it, chambering a round. "Even an inexperienced person would have had time to kick the gun away before he got it ready to shoot." Gripping the pistol in her right hand, she turned back around. The tall man sat upright. His left hand clutched his broken ribs, while his right held a black revolver that he had drawn from an ankle holster. "I came here to beat you up, bitch, but I brought insurance too," he said. "How stupid do you think I am?" Monica realized that he couldn't see what she was holding in her hand from his angle. The tall man began raising his gun. With lightning speed and deadly accuracy, Monica took aim with her pistol and fired a shot that got her opponent right in the middle of his forehead. As he slumped dead to the ground, she stood over him and answered his question. "I think you're pretty damn stupid," she said. "You've got a hole in your head." She laughed at her line. "I feel like an action heroine in a cheesy Hollywood movie," she said to herself. Then she turned serious again as her eyes traveled over the still-unconscious form of the thin man. Contemplating whether or not to shoot him, she decided to spare his life, as he hadn't actually tried to kill her. Bending over him, she searched him for weapons, finding none. She then removed his mask. When she saw his face, she gasped in shock. It was HIM! The sexist student from her class that day! She had never imagined that he would take things THIS far. The sexist young man stirred and groaned. Monica calmly waited for him to finish waking up. When he saw her kneeling over him and realized that his mask was off, he gasped in panic and tried to escape, but Monica put a stop to it by displaying the gun in her hand. "Cooperate, and I won't have to use this," she said, as he nodded in fear. "Now, I know most of my students' names, but you haven't talked much in class. What's your name?" she asked. "Evan," the young man said glumly. "Well, Evan," she said, "would I be correct in assuming that you hired those two guys to teach me a lesson?" He nodded. "I know 'em from church," he said. Monica shook her head, wondering what kind of church THAT was. "How much did you pay them?" she asked. "Two hundred bucks each," he answered. She shook her head again. "Well, the bad news is, you just wasted four hundred bucks," she said. "The worse news is, you'll have to waste a whole lot more than that on a lawyer. And I do mean waste, because there's no way you're getting acquitted." She continued her questioning. "What were they going to do to me, if I hadn't been so good at defending myself?" "I...uh...got mad and embarrassed in class and just wanted to teach you a lesson by having them beat you up a little," he said. Monica looked at him coldly. "Were they going to rape me?" she asked. Evan shifted nervously, his eyes darting to the gun in her hand. She noticed and laughed. "I'm not going to use this just because you say yes," she said. "I'm not as emotional and immature as you. Now, were they?" "Yes," he admitted, looking at the ground in shame. Monica nodded, then said, "Look at me." He did so, still fearful, as she stared directly into his eyes. "Evan, you've just made the biggest mistake of your life," she said. "And considering what a fool you are and the many stupid mistakes you've surely made in your twenty or so years on this world, that's saying a lot. Your attitudes would have caused me to dislike you, but if you hadn't pulled this stupid stunt and instead expressed your views in an essay, you would not be headed for prison right now. In fact, if you managed to write a good essay, I would have even given you a good grade, even if I didn't agree with your personal opinion. I'm professional enough to not let personal dislikes get in the way of the grading system. But you threw it all away because you thought you and your buddies could beat me up. Clearly, you have NOT been paying attention in class." "The next several years of your life are going to be extremely rough for you," she continued. "You'll spend at least that long in prison. A scrawny guy like you will be considered fresh meat by the bigger prisoners. And I really meant what I said earlier, during the fight," she said as she compared her arm to his again. "Hell, I'm a girl and I'd do better in a men's prison than you. Not only that, but word is going to get out that you were beaten up by a woman, which will further reduce your status. In prison, a man who's been beaten up by a girl is rated maybe one small notch above a child molester." Evan looked as if he was about to cry. Monica continued, "The regular kinds of lessons, given in a classroom, don't seem to have taught you anything. My lesson right here, given in the form of kicking your ass, is considerably more effective. But bigoted views don't ever disappear in the span of the few minutes it took for me to beat you up. They take years to change, if you change at all. If you survive prison, then hopefully yours will have changed." She paused, then said, "Now, the sound of that gunshot I fired to kill your tall friend will surely bring the police here soon, but I think we have time for one more lesson before you go off to jail. I'm going to give you a spanking." Monica pulled Evan's pants and underwear down and began spanking him, giving him hard, firm open palm slaps to his bare ass, which quickly turned bright red (matching the color on his face). As she continued spanking him and the sound of police sirens came from the distance, his current humiliation along with his dark prospects for the future became too much for him, and he began to cry. Monica smiled as she spanked him. She didn't normally give lessons this late on a Friday night, but, she decided, this one was very important. THE END silverstar222b@yahoo.com
