The Drake Institute
Chapter 6
Inspections

As always the Colonel was right on time. He was accompanied by Mr. Barns.  In 
his hand he carried a leather tawse, which by experience, he knew would be put 
to use that evening, at least once but quite probably a few times. First night 
inspections usually resulted in a number of sore bottoms. 
Though their were four wings to the dorms only one was in use due to the low 
starting population. By design of the Institute all corridors from all offices, 
dorms and the cafeteria lead to the center assembly area. It was layed out like 
a spoked wheel.  At the opposite end of each dorm was a larger room where the 
GC's resided. Only the dorms and administrative offices were carpeted and all 
other rooms and corridors were hard stone and a pin dropping would literally 
echoe thru the building. 
Each dorm room could accomidate four students but for now, until the population 
increased only two were assigned to each.
He entered each room expecting to find the occupants in their PJ's sitting on 
their neatly made beds as instructed earlier. The inspections only took a minute 
or so and the Colonel emerged from the first room appearing pleased with what he 
saw. Upon entering the second however, one of the girls, Carolyn, was not ready. 
She was only in her panties and hadn't put on her PJ's and was on her bed almost 
nude.  The Colonel instructed her to finish disrobing and to put her nightwear 
on. It was embarrassing for her as he watched her disrobe completely first 
before putting on the regulation flannel pajamas. She was then ordered to leave 
the room and to go an wait in the assembly area. Her eyes fixed upon the strap 
in his hand as she nervously obeyed his instruction. He inspected the room and a 
few moments later Carolyn's roommate, Paula, emerged from the room and headed 
for the assembly area.
The Colonel continued his inspections and three more students, two young men, a 
woman and another young woman, Nancy, who had been reprimanded earlier, were 
sent out to wait in the assembly. 
On his exit from each room he purposely left the door open to the hall. Knowing 
the accoustics he made sure that everyone would hear the results of a failed 
inspection.
When the five students arrived in the assembly hall they noticed four chairs in 
the middle of the room facing a padded sawhorse. 
With the inspections complete, the Colonel, the Deans and the four GC's entered 
the assembly.  The four GC's sat in the four chairs (George did also even though 
sitting was still quite uncomfortable) and The Colonel stood by the sawhorse. 
The students stood in a single line to the right of the Colonel and the Deans 
and Aids stood to the left.
The six students eyes gazed with worry at the sawhorse. They knew very well what 
it was placed there for.
"In case you're wondering why your all here." Said the Colonel to the students. 
"It's quite simple. You're all going to be spanked and then you will recieve six 
lashes of my strap. You've failed your inspection in one way or another and now 
you must be punished. I will not entertain any questions, stubborness of 
argument." He said in a most strict tone.
The students cringed at the thought of what was to happen next. They had all 
witnessed the spankings of Nancy and William that afternoon and they all feared 
their's would be no different. Their fears soon turned to reality as the Colonel 
continued.
"Mr. Barns. Would you be so kind as to bring up two more chairs. Itseems we are 
two spankers short. 
The rest of the students listened from their rooms. Though they could not see 
what was happening the sound of the Colonel's voice and their own imagination 
was all they needed to paint a clear picture in their minds.
Mr Burns had placed the two chairs in line with the others and The Colonel held 
his open hand toward the chairs and asked. "Miss Price and Mr Barns. Would you 
be so kind?"
Mr Burns and Miss Price sat in the two chairs
The Colonel began to pace back and forth while slapping his hand with the tawse 
as he began his instructions
"Each of you will march up single file and face those who are seated in the 
chairs. "The order does not matter."
They did so with without question.
"Now. You will pull your PJ bottoms down to your knees. If they fall to the 
floor you will leave them there. You will then stand, hands to your sides at 
attention and your eyes straight out."
All in unison they did as they were told and now their bare bottoms faced the 
Colonel.
 You will now look at that person seated in front of you and tell them that you 
have been a very bad young man or woman and ask them if they would be so kind as 
to properly spank your bare bottom."
Each recited the line as instructed and they were taken across the laps for the 
proper spanking they asked for. The spankings began at the Colonels 
instruction."40 smacks - and each student will count aloud. Let's begin."
The students still in their dorms could hear each and every smack followed by 
the counts and sometimes a yelp or an outcry as the sounds echoed thru the 
halls. Though they couldn't see their peirs being spanked they could tell by the 
sounds that it was no picnic. The smacks were loud and the outcries frequent. 
All had felt the bitter sting of the hand that was spanking and three had 
sucummed to crying by the time all forty smacks landed.
"You will now rise and face your spanker. Do not touch your bottom. Do not 
retrieve your PJ'S. "The Colonel said. "You will thank them for the spanking you 
had just recieved."
They all did so and now all six bare red bottoms faced the Colonel. He seemed 
pleased at the results his staff acccomplished. The six tender bottoms would 
soon feel the excrusionating sting of his leather tawse. There was a moment of 
silence in the hall as the students stood embarrassed, half naked awaiting the 
Colonel's next command. "You may now pull your PJ bottoms up and kneel uptight 
facing me."
When they were all kneeling and facing him he continued.  "When I call your name 
you will stand and approach this chair. You will bend at the waist and reach 
back and pull your PJ bottoms down and place your hands on the seat of the 
chair. You will each receive six lashes with this strap. You will count each 
swat followed by "Thank you, Sir". 
They all knelt in silence, wondering who was going to be first. They didn't 
wonder long as the Colonel picked the young man kneeling in front of Miss Price. 
"You'll be first Joseph".
Joseph obediently rose and approached the chair. As told to, he bent over, 
pulled his bottoms down exposing his bare red butt to everyone in the room and 
placed his hands flat on the seat of the chair." Everyone looked on as the 
Colonel wasted no time in measuring his disatance and delivering the first lash 
to Joseph's crimson butt. The snapping "CRACK" of it's impact echoed thru the 
halls so clear and crisp that the students still in their rooms jumped at the 
sound. Joseph let out a loud "OWE" quickly followed by "One Thank you Sir" 
Instantly a deeper red welt appeared across his ass. 
The next five swats were equal to the first and equally as painful if not more 
but Joseph held onto the seat of the chair as instructed and didn't rise until 
permission was granted.
"Now young man" the Colonel said. "You may pull up your bottoms and return to 
where you were kneeling." He turned and continued. "Paula come foward"
Paula, basically a shy gal of 19, had never been spanked, let alone strapped, 
before in her entire life. Nor had a member of the opposite sex ever seen her 
naked. This was a night of firsts for her. The spanking she just received from 
Mr Barns was more than she had imagined. Her ass was red and sore and she was 
scared of what was to follow. "Oh please. Colonel! Don't strap me. I'm sorry. 
I've learned my lesson. Honest I have. " She began to plead in despiration.
Unfortunately The Colonel was deaf to her plea. He had heard the same a thousand 
times and has never given in. Once his punishment was dictated it was carried 
out. No excuses. No delays. 
"Young lady" The Colonel scolded. "You've just provided me cause to give you an 
additional 2 swats. If your not bent over this chair with your PJ's at your 
knees by the time I count to five you'll get another three swats on top of it. 
One.... Two..."
Paula hurried to the chair, bent over at his count of four, and before he could 
say "five"
had pulled her flannel bottoms pulled down. In tears she gripped the seat of the 
chair. She was frightened and embarrassed. Everyone in the room could see her 
naked red butt.
The Colonel's strap landed without warning. The CRACK echoed through the 
Institute like a bolt of lightning. Paula cried out and stood up dancing toe to 
toe clutching her bottom. "Oww Owe waa! Please no more! No more!" She begged.
The Colonel was relentless but calm. He pulled her by the arm while sitting in 
the chair and dragged her asross his left lap. He put his right leg over her 
legs and pulled her hands behind her back and held them with his left hand. 
Though she struggled, her 105 lbs. was no match for him. The Colonel was 5'10" 
tall and 195 lbs of solid man. "You'll now get double - twice in this position 
young lady" he scolded. "Once with my hand and again with the strap. 
His hand began to rise and fall rapidly not even giving her a chance to count. 
Her struggling continued and his spanks grew harder. Sixteen times his large 
hard hand splatted across her virgin backside. She cried and struggled to no 
avail. Her strength and energy was soon diverted from fighting to free herself 
to bearing the pain inflicting on her backside. The Colonel had no problem 
delivering 16 blistering hot smacks to her flamming bare ass. As soon as the 
hand spanking finished he picked up the strap, wrapped it once around the palm 
of his hand leaving a the twin tails about 10" long.
"You'll count these young lady all16." he said. "I don't need to tell you the 
consequence if you mis-count do I" 
No sooner had she responded "No" the strap made it's mark across the tops of her 
thighs. AAAAWWWW!! she screamed "ONE THANK YOU SIR" The other students watched 
in awe. The ones still in their rooms listened in awe. They could only imagine 
what their classmates must be going through. CRACK!! "OOOOWWWWW!!!  ---  TWO" 
she cried out and pounded her fists against the legs of the chair. CRACKKK!!! 
"OW OOWW OOOOOWWW!!!!! THREE THANK YOU SIR" The Colonel paused momentarily to 
scold her once again. "Young lady. If you continue to yell out like that I'll 
extend your punishment until you learn to take your spanking like a big girl. 
There's no room here for your childish behavior." CRACK!! CRACK!!! CRACCKKK!!!!! 
The lashes fell quickly and Paula barely had time to count before the next lash 
burned a new stripe across her ass. Her courage grew under the rain of waks and 
she was able to keep her yelps and outcries to a minimum. 
Having administered all sixteen The Colonel helped her up from his lap. Oh, how 
she wanted to comfort her burning ass but knew better. She certainly didn't want 
anymore spanks or swats. She stood facing the Colonel. He shook his finger at 
her and scolded again. "I hope you've learned a few lessons young lady." Still 
crying she knodded her head "yes". "Now pull up your bottoms and return to 
kneeling with the others." 
Quickly her bottoms were pulled up and she had returned to her kneel.
The  Colonel stood and looked across all six kneeling before him. Pointing his 
finger he said. "Carolyn! Your next!"
Not wanting to go through the ordeal that her roommate just did she immediatly 
stood and made her way to the chair. Bending over she reached back and pulled 
down her bottoms. Her tall, 6'1", very thin frame was in position. Her bottom 
awaited his strap.
Though it had been a few years, she was no stranger to the strap. Adopted by a 
strict aunt at the age of 12 she found herself in a similar position almost 
weekly for three years until her aunt died when she was 15. She was then 
shuffled from foster to foster until she turned 18 and had been on her own for 
the last 7 years. She had hoped that her bottom would never again feel the bite 
of a leather strap but unfortunately her life had gone astray and now once 
again... She's naked from the waist down, bent over a chair, waiting for the 
familiar SNAP! and the resulting bite of the strap.
The strap began to rise and fall with the resounding CRACK! Carolyn held tightly 
onto the chair seat and only flinched slightly with each stroke. Thanking the 
Colonel and counting each stroke as instructed she held brave and resilient to 
the the stripped portrait being painted upon her thin bottom. With the count of 
six she was allowed to rise and pull up her PJ's and returned to kneel with the 
others.
The other young man, Randy, was next. He too was familiar with the bite of the 
strap. At 26yrs. old he had been active in a D/S relationship with a dom. Baring 
his bottom in front of others for a good dose of a strap or a paddle wasn't a 
new experience and six of the Colonel's best wasn't anything compared to some of 
the punishments he endured at the hands of his mistress.
The last two gals to experience the Colonel's wrath were Patty and Roxanne. 
Patty just could'nt keep still enough for the Colonel's satisfaction and 
receiveed an additional two strokes. Roxanne, though she'd been spanked 
frequently as a child but never with anything other than a hand, did 
surprisingly well. The Colonel's six lashes bit into her naked ass and although 
it was somewhat a new experience for the gal of 27yrs she managed to endure her 
punishment bravely.
Once allsix had been duly chastised they were ordered to return to their rooms 
and remove their PJ bottoms and correct what ever infraction caused them to fail 
the inspection. When they were finished they were to stane in the corner an 
await the Colonel to come and re-inspect their room. If their efforts still did 
not please the Colonel they could expect another dose of the strap. 
Surprisingly, some 45 minutes later the Colonel was pleased to find all rooms to 
his satisfaction. The staff was dismissed and the students were all sent to bed 
as it was now 9:45 - past lights out time. 
The Colonel and Miss Price met at his office for their promised rendezvous. They 
left the main building for The Colonel's residence. Yet apart from the main 
complex, The Colonel's residence was a stand alone house at a far off corner of 
the property. All other staff members, except the secretary and janitorial 
personell who lived in town, resided at the Institute.
