Nemesis: Chapter 29

"Now the second video requires some explaining which thankfully wasn't caught on camera. Four days after the first video was filmed, Emily, on a rebound from a recently failed relationship decided to flirt with Kyle. She knew that Claire fancied him but also knew that Kyle simply wasn't interested. But there wasn't a kind way to tell her. Kyle read the signs and took Emily by the hand as they crossed the field behind the school to walk home. Emily stared longingly at Kyle's dark brown hair, his bulging muscles and his impressive six-foot frame. She knew that he was out of poor Claire's league, but wasn't she beneath him herself? Judging by the way he looked longingly into her eyes, probably not.

Two minutes later, having disappeared deep into the bushes to hide from the hordes of year nines, the daring sixth formers began to make out. Emily took off her top and let Kyle caress her breasts as she kissed him on the neck. The next moment, Emily heard a twig snap and she turned around; Claire was taking a short cut home. Much to his disappointment, Emily pushed Kyle off and tried to call out to Claire as she trudged past. But Emily suddenly found herself tongue tied and nothing came out. Deeply hurt, Claire desperately fought to hold back her tears and after running home headed straight for her bedroom where she fell into torpor and despair for the rest if the day. How could one of her closest friends do this to her? More importantly, how could she make her pay?

Emily meanwhile, realised that it was now hopeless to go running after her friend. She probably wouldn't want to speak to her ever again. Emily damned herself for not choosing practically anybody else to make out with. Nonetheless, she had got this far and Kyle was still keen, the moment hadn't yet passed, so they might as well continue. Kyle threw off his t-shirt and unbuckled his belt. Emily pushed down her skirt, unhooked her bra and let Kyle slip down her knickers. She was standing naked in front of a guy who she had known since they were both four. Kyle embraced her and they made love beneath the large decrepit oak tree.

Not two minutes later, the Heavens opened and the wind began to howl. Naked, the youngsters were soaked to the skin. Emily uncoupled herself from Kyle as rainwater began to run down her chest. As Emily slipped on her panties the wind blew her top, skirt and bra to the edge of the nearby river. As Kyle quickly dressed, Emily quickly trundled down to the bank and located her top and her skirt. Unfortunately, the wind had blown her bra over to the other side of the river. But the riverbank wasn't very wide, Emily could almost reach over a grab it. So, she bent over to scoop it up, lost her balance and fell into the muddy river. Wearing nothing but her knickers, Emily landed head first into the brown sludge. Her face and chest were covered in slimy mud and as the rain continued to beat down, her wet hair began to cling to her skin. Emily sat up in the muddy water and looked over at Kyle who was scarcely able to keep straight face as he ran over to help the semi-naked girl. A leaf blew straight into her face as she watched in horror as her skirt and top toppled into the water. She would have to trudge home in sodden clothing. Emily couldn't help but think that she had got her just deserts for betraying one of her closest friends. The sex was good but she realised now that Kyle wasn't serious boyfriend material. For a start he wasn't offering to lend her any of his own clothes. But she was wrong, her muddy retribution was only just the beginning.

The heavy rain continued through the night before finally clearing the following morning. The next day at school the sixth formers were each supposed to run a mile of the school playing fields to help raise money for Comic Relief. Mr Hawkins was running the London marathon and this was their way of showing support. But when Tiffany and Molly looked out of the window, they regretted ever agreeing to take part. It had stopped raining but it was freezing cold and there was mud everywhere. Nonetheless, the girls all put on their gym kits and headed outside. Being quite sporty, I managed to finish before most of the others even got half way round. Being lazy, Scarlett and Isabel decided to walk the entire way. Lauren, fresh from the humiliation of being covered in custard a few days ago, looked around at everyone else jogging behind her and decided to quicken up her pace. Unfortunately, she slipped on a loose branch and fell head first into the mud. Molly and Tiffany made a concerted effort to kick and splash more mud in her face as they jogged past. Mud oozed into her top and onto her chest. Molly even kicked mud up into her skirt. Lauren stumbled whilst getting back up and landed face first into the mud a second time. Seeing Lauren's face caked in mud, Claire suddenly had an idea.

Claire sped up her pace so that she was practically beside Emily. Embarrassed and trying to hide from her friend, Emily avoided eye contact and looked away. This gave Claire enough time to stretch out her foot and trip Emily over so that she too fell head first into the mud. Emily landed with a loud splash and tried to lift her head. Instead, she felt Claire press down on her again, wiping her entire body against the muddy ground. By the time she had risen, Claire was a long way in the distance. She couldn't be bothered to catch her up and take her revenge. It would have to wait. Emily felt hugely embarrassed, but at least this time she had kept her clothes on. Stopping to wipe herself down, even the trundling Scarlett and Isabel marched past.

Emily was the last one back to the changing rooms and was so muddy that she felt that she had no option but to have a shower. Ordinarily, the showers were no go areas, everyone avoided them at all costs. Practically nobody ever had one. Unfortunately for Emily, Lauren, even more caked in mud had had the same idea too. The two naked girls tried to ignore one another as they tried to wipe themselves clean. Nevertheless, Lauren couldn't help but stare at Emily's perfect body, standing directly beneath a stream of lukewarm water, before clutching at her own flat chest. Finally clean, Emily wrapped a towel around her chest and headed back into the changing room. Having now changed into her bra and knickers, Emily suddenly realised that she had taken Lauren's towel by mistake and went to retrieve her own. Lauren was just finishing washing herself clean when she heard a commotion behind her. Having finally lost her cool, Claire had decided to confront Emily about yesterday and came storming into the showers after her, shouting obscenities. "How could you sleep with Kyle you first class bitch" she screamed. "You stuck up cow, you and your fancy airs." "Give it a rest Claire, Kyle would never go out with you, you're not his type, plus you always act so gooey around him, you're embarrassing." Emily replied. Offended, Claire slapped Emily on the cheek. Emily slapped back as Claire began to pull on Emily's wet hair.

The rest of us, now modestly dressed heard the commotion in the showers and came running in to see what was happening. Rather unhelpfully, Tiffany started shouting "Fight, fight, fight" as the two formerly close friends began to grapple with one another. Panicking, Lauren reached for her towel only to find that it wasn't there. She tried to escape by squeezing past the two tussling girls but found her path blocked. Emily, lashing out at Claire, accidentally struck poor Lauren on the left breast, pushing her back against a shower on/off button which then activated the shower head above her. The water was freezing cold and Lauren screamed. Everyone looked round at the girl and suddenly noticed that she was naked. I have to admit that even I joined in and laughed at her expense. We were incredibly mean, but we were bitchy teenagers, what do you expect? "Nice boobs Lauren" goaded Tiffany as Lauren tried to cover them with her right arm.

In the meantime, Claire had managed to overpower Emily, who was too busy trying to keep Lauren's towel wrapped around her, and had pinned her to the floor. Sitting on top of her midriff, she slapped her once more just as Anna and the head of PE, Mrs Lisa Tomkins, hearing Lauren's scream and Tiffany's shouting, came running in. Lisa, was twenty-nine, five foot nine, and had just been made head of the department. With blonde hair and a loud booming voice, she was not somebody to be messed with. She could beat all the male members of staff at arm wrestling and never accepted any bullshit or took no for an answer. Many of the students were scared of her. Her husband Malcolm was a weedy little man, it was clear who wore the trousers in their relationship, but she loved him as he accepted her as she was, plus he let her boss him around. They had a young son who strangely rarely ever cried, perhaps subconsciously wary that to do so would be to fall short of her exceedingly high expectations for him. Expectations that her sports teams rarely ever met, much to her immense frustration.

Entering the changing rooms, Lisa shouted at Claire to get off Emily whilst Anna picked the prone brunette off the floor. Suddenly, the two teachers looked round and realised that they had barged in on a student stood in the nude. Lauren, having still been unable to turn the shower head off stood there exposed in front of a crowd of at least fifteen people. Lauren tried to cover her crotch and her breasts once more with her hands, but it was too late everyone had seen it all. Water continued to cascade down over her head and run down her chest. To everyone's relief, Lauren, having got over the initial shock began to see the funny side of her delicate situation. Lauren turned her back to the crowd so that all they could now see was her behind and switched off the shower. The two teachers hurried from the changing room and allowed Emily time to dress before hurling her and Claire in front of the headmaster, Mr Wainwright.

Anna dropped her fade now that she was away from her students. She was actually really scared; she didn't want to get in trouble for accidentally seeing a student nude. She didn't want to get sacked or be charged as a sex pest (even though Lauren was eighteen). She pleaded with the Mr Wainwright to forgive her, who to her relief remained was remarkably calm. He told her not to worry, it wasn't her fault, if a student screams you can't just ignore it, she wasn't going to lose her job. Lauren was not going to be making a complaint. But there was one thing though that he would like her to do in return. Lisa had of course got to both him and Lauren beforehand and told them what to do. Neither of them would argue with the fiery women. Emily, whose uncle was a friend of Mr Wainwright's was forgiven and absolved of any blame. Claire meanwhile was excluded for a day. Mr Wainwright threatened to not let her back in so that she could take her A Levels. She pleaded in his office to be given another chance, she had never been violent before, her future would be ruined, it would never happen again. He let her return on one condition, which is where the next video picks up.

On the next Monday was a whole school assembly. The Head wanted to announce how the school was going to raise money for Comic Relief that year. When the whole school fell quiet, he pulled back a curtain to unveil a shiny new gunge tank. The students all shouted with joy, one of their teachers was going to get humiliated. But who would volunteer for such a thing? It was normally the male teachers who volunteered to get messy, none of the women ever wanted to mess up their hair. But the students were in for a shock when they found out who was up for the gunging. "Over the next week" Mr Wainwright announced, "two teachers will be going head to head. Whoever raises the most money for comic relief will get gunged. So, you have a choice, who would you rather gunge: Miss Young or Miss Lucey?"

Anna had clearly been coerced into volunteering in order to escape censor for what had happened with Lauren. What she didn't know was that Pippa had also been forcibly volunteered after the Head had found out that she had filmed the pi video without sorting out permission slips from everyone first. The two housemates would be going head to head. This cheered Anna up no end. She wouldn't be going through this ordeal alone. Plus, it was the perfect opportunity to gain her revenge on her housemate for pouring custard over her the previous week. Furthermore, even Anna had to admit it, Pippa was clearly the more attractive, all the boys would want to see her gunged for sure. Pippa was relieved to find out that her housemate had also been coerced into taking part. Anna was acting far too cocky; it was almost as if she knew that she couldn't lose. Pippa would have to use her cunning and get creative if she was to avoid a messy fate. But even then, the odds were against her.

Mr Wainwright began to speak to the assembly once again. "But now I would like to do a practical demonstration of what we all have to look forward to next week. Would Claire Stevens please step forward?" Claire was ushered to the front by Lisa who was mightily relieved to not have been asked to stand in the slime off herself. Claire was pushed into the gunge tank to much derision from her fellow students. She was wearing a short jean skirt and a yellow blouse. Lauren, wearing a strapless red top and jean skirt was ushered to the front for the honour of pulling the cord. The students counted down from five. "Five, four, three, two, one." Lauren pulled down on the cord as hard as she could and red slime came gushing down over the bespectacled redhead. The gunge coated her blouse, which was now see through; her black bra was visible to the front few rows of year seven. When the gunge stopped pouring, Claire wasn't allowed out, the tank was to be refilled again. Thirty seconds later, Lauren pulled on the cord a second time and green gunge came raining down on poor old Claire. She hadn't meant to get violent with Emily, she was just overcome with betrayal and grief. Plus, Emily had hit her back too. Just because she has a rich uncle doesn't mean that she should escape retribution too. It wasn't fair. Furthermore, it wasn't her fault that Lauren had been caught in the nude, it was Emily who had taken her towel in the first place.

Mr Wainwright began to interview Lauren as the crowd continued to laugh at Claire. "How does it feel to gunge someone?" he asked. "It feels great" Lauren shouted in return. "Do you think that everyone should get involved and sponsor one of our lovely teachers here to get gunged?" "Oh absolutely." "Who would you like to see gunged?" "I love Miss Young, she's the best, so I would tell everyone to vote for Miss Lucey I guess." Anna was horrified, the girl had just told the whole school to vote for her to be gunged. Anna still had a bucket of blue gunge and a pie leftover, but she could hardly go up and gunge the girl in front of the rest of the school after what happened in the changing rooms a few days previously. Still, she had be punished, nobody messes with Miss Anna Lucey. Suddenly, Anna had a brainwave. With the rest of the school distracted as Pippa began speaking to the crowd about why she shouldn't be gunged, Anna unlocked the gunge tank and left the bucket and pie by the door. Claire read her mind immediately and quietly slipped out of the tank with only a few year sevens noticing.

The head teacher turned his attention back to Lauren once more. "So, you got involved in the making of the pi video last week, any more plans for getting gunged?" "None whatsoever, I'm glad that it will be one of my teachers getting" Lauren was interrupted by a slimy Claire slamming the pie into her face. As Lauren shrieked, Claire then emptied the bucket of blue gunge over her tormentor's head. Mr Wainwright simply laughed. He had been planning on setting up Lauren with a pie to the face himself, but this was by far funnier. Undeterred, he handed the chocolate pie he had hidden to Claire who then smashed it into poor Lauren's face once again. The two slimy girls embraced as Lauren struggled to keep her strapless top from falling down. Lauren sighed to herself, she should have known that she was being set up. Anna was laughing hysterically at her fate; Lauren could tell that she had something to do with this. She vowed to get her revenge as the brunette teacher upturned a bucket of cold water over her head."
