gerda8 aasup10 (THE STORY SO FAR: Gerda, a top Parisien model, has been brought by her lover, Le Compte Guy de Rhislain, to his island in the Mediterranean. She finds she is a virtual prisoner, to be trained in rubber and bondage to become a perfect slave. The huge Training Centre, formerly a hotel, is run on strict lines, like a well-organised school. There are eighteen other slaves in residence, being prepared for their rich Masters from all over the world.) The weeks passed slowly, although there were no calendars, radio or television, on the island. By now, Gerda had ceased to fight against her training, preserving her energy instead to suffer her daily ration of strict instruction and punishment. Demerits were awarded by the green leather-clad Instructors for the slightest infraction of the many rules; when these mounted to one hundred the slave was ordered to report to The Executioner, an attractive but sadistic lesbian who superintended all the punishments. Gerda had become very fond of Maria, her own personal serving-maid, who awoke her each morning with the instructions for the day, and who was responsible for dressing her correctly and washing, cleaning and shining the amazing array of costumes and boots. Maria was a happy soul, dedicated to her rubber existence, a child-like waif who Le Compte had taken off the streets of Rome when she was in her teens. Every month, the same as all personnel on the island, a sum of money was deposited in a Swiss bank account. Despite Gerda's anger and revulsion at her own captivity, she had to admire the superb organisation which her lover, Le Compte, had built up. One morning Gerda, was completing her dressing, wearing the standard 'working suit'. She was encased in a skin-tight black latex suit, with gloves and feet attached; five-inch heeled black leather thigh boots, which Maria expertly laced up; her own mask, tight and comfortable, with 'Gerda' stencilled across the forehead and her number, 21, on the back of the head; a number 4 Rod. medium size, greased and chained into her bottom through the small hole in the rear of her suit; and a wide white leather belt. "I hate that damn belt," Gerda grumbled as she pulled it in an extra notch, bringing her slim waist down to twenty inches, "I know it's the sign of a novice slave, but when can I wear a black one?" "Very soon, Mistress, I think you first exam comes up this week. If you pass it you won't have to wear the white belt any longer." Maria walked slowly round her mistress, making sure the suit and boots were perfectly polished and shined. "I don't like the idea of an 'exam'! What do they do? " "Nearly every exam is different. Basically it's a test of endurance, and acceptance of slavery to your Master. It can be a severe whipping, or a long sustained period of suffocation, or a heat treatment. Come on Mistress, it's almost nine, you have to report in the Lecture Room. " Maria replaced her own gag, tightly strapping it into her mouth through her mask. Only in her own room, or Gerda's small suite, was she allowed to remove it. Gerda gave one last look at herself in the long wardrobe mirror, making sure there was no trace of powder on her sleek costume (ten demerits immediately), then strode out into the long corridor to join the other slaves in the lecture room four floor below. THE LECTURE There were fourteen slaves assembled, all dressed similarly to Cerda, their names stencilled on the front of their masks, all experiencing the subtl sexual feeling as the Rods in their grease were pushed further up their bottoms when they sat on the hart wooden benches of the lecture room She noticed that three of the slaves were heavily gagged, and one had her arms pulled tightly behind her back secured inside a laced leather elbow glove. These were punishments for minor infractions, which were not allowed to interfere with the slave's schedule. If the gags or the elbow-glove were to be worn for six hours, it would mean the slave would miss her lunch. Gerda sat next to Yvette, who had become her close friend. Yvette had been on the island for three years and was a Top-Level Slave. Tall, intelligent, and highly masochistic, she was now the personal slave to a rich German industrialist who visited the island once a month for a long weekend. For four days Yvette would disappear to one of the luxurious chalets which were reserved for visiting Masters, who also had access to the many torture and training rooms, and the vast wardrobes of rubber, leather, and bondage equipment. "How're you getting along?" Yvette enquired, "It's about time you got rid of your white belt. Are you finally accepting your slavehood? You were a real tiger for the first few days!" Gerda shrugged. "I still am, underneath ! I still love Guy, swine that he is, but I still resent my loss of freedom, and being made to undergo all this humiliating training.." "Come on now, admit it, you're getting to like it ! " "That's what's so damned annoying! I must be crazy, but I love the feel of a Rod up my arse, feeling it jack' in and out as I walk. I've even grown used to my daily whipping. Me, who couldn't stand pain ! My instructor, he's number 7, ordered me take two Pleasures yesterday and said he would carry on whipping until I did. " "How did you do?" "I'm ashamed to say I came twice before he had reached a hundred strokes, less than my normal ration ! He's quite a poppet, not really as cruel as some of them, but he was so angry he gave me an extra fifty and I took another Pleasure!" "Good for you! You'll be a perfect slave yet ! Oh-oh, here comes Miss Dodds ! " The woman who came through a door onto the lecture platform was in her fifties, with grey hair and a cheerful face. As usual, she was dressed in the standard uniform of a nursing matron, except that her dress and stockings were of heavy white latex. She wore long black shiny gloves, giving a mildly sinister appearance to her outfit. Miss Dodds, as Gerda had learnt, was second-in- command only to her lover, Le Compte Guy, and ran the establishment like a military academy. She was a curious paradox of ruthless efficiency mixed with a warm understanding of human nature. On her first day on the island, Gerda had been given an enema, much against her will, by Miss Dodds. The Matron, with two assistants, had strapped Gerda over a punishment gym-horse and forcibly carried out her task; but afterwards, she had soothed Gerda with reassuring words, a Mother- Bunny to the slaves in training. TIGHT AND TIDY The class stood up to attention. Miss Dodds signalled everyone to be seated, smiling humorously as the slaves slowly sank back onto their rods. she seated herself behind the podium desk. "Every month I give this same lecture. Some of you will be tired of hearing it, some of you will be listening to it for the first time. But whether you be a Top-Level Slave or a Novice, it is still important that you listen and understand what I say. " Yvette whispered in Gerda's ear. "Here we go again ! I can recite it from memory. " Miss Dodds looked up. "Dear Yvette," she said in a mild voice, "I really don 't know what Top-Level Slaves are coming to! Speaking in class ! Come to the front. . " Obediently Yvette rose and walked gracefully on her six-inch heeled boots up to the platform. Miss Dodds opened a drawer in her desk and took out a pressure-gag. She inserted it through the mouth-slit of Yvette's mask, then started pumping it up. she addressed the rest of the slaves. "Yvette, as you know, is a long-time resident, usually one of our model slaves. This unpardonable infraction of the no-talking rules while in Training just goes to demonstrate how careful and alert you always must be. 'Tight and Tidy' is our motto, and never forget it for even one moment ! " She was still pumping up the gag. Yevette's cheeks were now blown out by the tremendous pressure of the compressed air inside the thick rubber balloon gag. Miss Dodds unscrewed the pump from the nozzle of the gag. "Go back to your seat. Unless you have any other training course this morning you will keep it in until lunchtime . " Chastened, Yvette returned and sat next to Gerda, her mouth held rigidly open, her cheeks bulging against the latex mask. she turned towards Gerda and through the eyeholes winked at her. PRIDE OF A SLAVE "So, I want to impress upon you again why you are here," began Miss Dodds, "For one reason or another, you have been selected to be trained as Servers, or slaves, to your Master. Some of you have met your future Master, others have yet to have that pleasure. " She leaned forward intently. "Your physical training is highly important, but perhaps even more important is your mental attitude to slavehood. Women's Lib. is fine in its concept, but from what are you being liberated, and why? Two per cent ñ only two per centñof the female population will be- come doctors or lawyers. Not because the female mind is less intelligent, but because women, as a race, do not want to become professionals! I will make a very strong statement, hackneyed maybe, but nevertheless true: Woman was put upon the earth to Serve her Master ! " She leaned back, as if awaiting rebellious contradiction. "Butñand this is a very important but ñ it does not mean she has to become a drudge and a puppet. No, indeed not! The Far-Eastern countries are thousands of years ahead of us in that respect. The Geisha girl of Japan, from the moment she is born, is trained and educated and instructed in all the arts which will make her indispensable to her chosen Master. So never, never think that becoming a slave is demeaning or lowly. It is a long hard road and requires enormous concentration, intelligence, and a certain pride." Miss Dodds stood up and paced the platform . "Pride! Yes, a slave must have pride in her achievements, pride in her appearance, pride in the arts which she will learn. The art of pleasing her man. Here you will be taught every sexual trick which has ever been imagined in the wildest fantasies! But that is not all! You will be instructed in the more mundane arts of cooking, of serving, of sewing, of reading and absorbing a book so that you can converse intelligently about it. you will learn to give, to have the supreme satisfaction of giving your soul and your body to your Master, however cruelly he may treat it. you will, above all, learn to love, for your Master, in your own eyes, can never do wrong!" She paused, eyeing the attentive slaves . "Think well about what I have said. Your Master will be rich, otherwise he would not be able to afford the huge fees which LeCompte must charge to run this establishment. So you will never have financial problems. Some of you will go back into the outside world to live with, or marry, your Master, secure in the knowledge you have departed from this island as a Top-Level Slave, the highest form of servitude. Others will remain here, to be visited by their Master at his convenience. At such a time you will be proud to serve him and accept his blessings, the pain and suffering which he will inflict, and you will give him the complete love of your mind and body." There was a silence while the new slaves absorbed the gist of Miss Dodd's lecture . STORY OF EVA "One more thing. Some of you will know the history of Slave Eva, who is sitting amongst you, but for the benefit of the new slaves I will tell you her story. Le Compte brought her here some years ago. she was a wilful, spoilt girl, a victim of her own generation. Her parents had been killed in a plane crash, and at twenty-one she was on dope and a near-alcoholic. She was very attractive and was a convenient bed-partner for the smart Mayfair and Chelsea crowd in London. Here, for the first time in her life, she was taught discipline and made to realise she could be a useful member of human society. Eventually, she passed her exams to become a Top-Level Slave, and Le Compte introduced her to her Master- to-be, a charming Frenchman who was the president of a large electronics firm. There was genuine love on both sides, and Le Compte allowed Eva to return to the world in order to marry her Master. They lived happily for two years, then he was killed one night by a hit-and-run automobile in Paris." Miss Dodds regarded the girl with compassionate eyes. "Eva inherited her husband Master's fortune. She was a rich girl, the world at her feet. But after six months she contacted Le Compte and asked to return here. Only on this island could she feel safe and secure in her bondage and training. I'm happy to inform you that Le Compte has approved Eva's request that she be trained as a Mistress, and she she will remain here on the permanent staff. " There were low murmurings from the other girls. Miss Dodds raised her hand. "For the next few months Eva will remain a Top-Level Slave, but gradually she will take over the role of Training Mistress. For you new slaves, she will be an invaluable friend, because she will have suffered everything you will suffer, and although she will be taught that a Mistress must be ruthless, she will, I trust, still retain the element of compassion. That is all." The next morning, Maria excitedly unpadlocked the restrictive chain around Gerda's nack. Sleepily Gerda sat up, her thin latex sleeping-suit clinging warmly to her body. THE EXAMINATION "It's today, Mistress! Your first exam! If you pass it I won't have to lock you to your bed every night. Isn't that great?" She poured out Gerda's early morning coffee and handed her the cup. Gerda sipped it throught the mouth-slit of her mask, feeling curiously relaxed at the news. "I wish I knew what was in store! Will it be very severe?" "As I told you, we never know in advance. My orders are to dress you in your very heavy latex suit, and to seal on your gloves and mask. No boots, no belt. Nothing." In fifteen minutes Gerda had been given her daily enema, had showered, dried and powered herself, and had donned the thick latex overall suit which clung to her like a second skin, a black shining sheath, smooth and without a wrinkle. "All these costumes," she exclaimed, indicating the long wardrobe which held over seventy different outfits, "They all fit so perfectly! How do they do it?" Maria held out a shoulder-high latex glove which her Mistress slipped on, repeating the manoevre with the other arm. "Everything is made to your exact measurements. One day you should ask to see the workshops behind the Training Centre. It's like a modern factory. Six of the serving-maids work there when they're not on training duty, they're superminded by a lovely old designer who's queer, but an absolute genius. He and Le Compte fight with each other to design the most outlandish costumes. Then there's the blacksmith who makes all the steel and bondage equipment. He's seven feet tall and looks like Frankenstein's monster, but he's a lamb." She took a roll of shiny black waterproof tape and expertly sealed the top of Gerda's gloves to her thick suit. She tucked the neck of Gerda's mask inside the high collar of the suit, then passed the tape round her throat, sealing the mask to the suit. "O.K., we're ready, you've got five minutes to report at the Preparation Room on the ground floor. Good luck, dear Mistress ! " Gerda entered the Preparation Room at exactly nine o'clock, hating the place with its rows of wardrobes and cupboards containing hundreds of costumes and strange equipment to further bedevil a slave. On one wall, supported on steel hooks, were heavy punishment suits, made of thick vinyl or leather, some of gleaming metal, their hoods and helmets with attached rubber tubes hanging in grotesque positions . Awaiting her was an instructor and two attendant maids. She saw by the number Four on his helmet he was the one she feared, a surly and sadistic bastard who awarded demerits at the most tiny infractions of the rules. He came towards her, insolent in his skin- tight leather costume. "Good morning, slave Gerda ! presume you hope to pass your Test today? Feeling ready?" She knelt briefly and made the required sign of obedience on entering a room, by kissing his leathered bottom. "I hope so, instructor Sir. What are your orders?" Inwardly she raged at her humiliation, but now she knew it was stupid to incur demerits by being rude to him. HEAT TREATMENT "Your exam is a prolonged Heat Treatment, my dear slave. The girls will dress you, then Le Compte will take over after I have checked your final costumes." She felt her heart beat faster. She had rarely seen her lover over the past few weeks, although he had assured her he would watch her training from afar and study her progress charts every night. Now she felt immensely strong; whatever the suffering or torture which had been planned for her, she would prove worthy of Guy, just as he had told her on that fateful first night on the island. The serving maids came forward, and Gerda obediently climbed into the various suits which they held. There were three heavy latex cat-suits, each one slightly larger than the other, each one zipped and laced onto her body until she felt like the advertisement for Michelin tyres. All the suits had attached gloves, and now she was unable to bend her fingers. Then the serving maids had completed their dressing, the instructor came over with a wide steel collar and padlocked it over the high necks of the suits, but loosely . "We'll tighten it later," he said roughly, "First I must put this tube through your mouth-hole, down to your neck." He took a short length of rubber hose and carefully pulled away the mouth of her mask, pushing the tube downwards. One of the serving girls brought across a large metal can, full of liquid, and a plastic funnel which she inserted in the top of the rubber tube. "You'll like this," said the instructor sardonically, "Little girls have even been known to take Pleasure with it ! " He took the can and slowly poured the liquid into the funnel. It was thick and oily, and Gerda felt it circle her neck, then start penetrating down into her undersuit, slowly trickling over her breasts and down her back. Instinctively she rubbed her covered hands against her body, feeling the liquid spread against her stomach, and continue down into her crotch and legs. The can contained nearly a gallon of the greasy fluid, which took the instructor almost a minute to empty. It had a pleasant scented smell, and despite her forthcoming trial, Gerda felt overwhelmingly randy as it covered her entire body inside the heavy rubber layers. The instructor withdrew the tube, wiped his hands on a towel, and after pulling the steel collar tight, padlocked it into position. Meanwhile the two maids had brought over a weird-looking suit made of heavy leather, to which were attached long bars of steel, securely sewn to the legs and arms. With difficulty they pulled the suit onto her, the leather being so thick it scarcely could bend. The instructor laced it up the back until Gerda was tightly encased in it. Because of the steel splints, she found it impossible to bend her arms, and she could only walk stiff-legged. One of the maids brought over a pair of heavy rubber thigh boots, several sizes too large in order to accommodate the four rubber suits and the leather costume she was now wearing. These were pulled on, stiff and tight and coming up to Gerda's hips. "Finally, your Heat Helmet!" said the instructor with obvious plelasure. He brought over a heavy rubber hood with goggled eyes, no mouth-hole, and a nozzled tube for the nose. He pulled it over her own mask and strapped the wide collar securely round her neck. By now Gerda was almost panicking. The weight of the various suits was enormous, and already she could feel the heat building up. The heavy punishment hood pressed tightly against her masked face, the rubber already wet with her perspiration. She could breathe through the nose tube, but she knew that the outside nozzle could be tightened to restrict her air supply. The Instructor stood back and surveyed her. she took two awkward steps, unable to bend her legs, and felt the grease slither sexily over her body and in her parts. Then suddenly Le Compte Guy de Rhislain was standing in front of her, and the Instructor and maids had silently departed. Instead of his usual white leather suit, he was wearing a shining black latex costume, outlining his superb slim figure. Two- inch-heeled black patent thigh boots gave him a swashbuckling appearance. He was gloved and belted, but his head was bat-e. He bent and raised one of her stiff arms and kissed her rubbered hand. "So, ma there, you have come to the end of your first period of Training. I sincerely hope you will pass your exam into slavery." She felt a warm feeling of deep love sweep over her; she would die for him, there had never been any other man in her life about whom she had felt so intensely. "Master, dear Master! Do whatever you wish! Only please let me see you more often. Then I can be strong and I can make you proud of me!" The words echoed inside her masks, and she hoped he could understand her words, muted against the tight rubber hood . THE TEST BEGINS He took a black-gloved hand and gently caressed her head. His other hand crept between her booted legs and she cried out with rapturous pleasure as he caused the grease inside her suit to enter every part of her body. In a hot whirl of emotion she realised she was close to a shattering climax. As if sensing this, he stepped back, his face hardening. He turned and picked up a wide iron belt from a table and with some difficulty padlocked it round her waist. The extra weight made Gerda stagger . "It weighs twelve kilos," Guy informed her, "So you are now carrying about twenty kilos of costumes and equipment. It is now nearly ten a.m., and you will carry out your Test until midnight." Gerda felt her heart miss a beat. Fourteen hours! She was already perspiring in the monstrous costumes, and her legs felt encased in cement, the heavy rubber thigh boots holding her four suits rigid. the iron belt made her want to lie flat, anything to get rid of the weight dragging her down. Le Compte picked up a small dial with a strap attached. He bent and fixed it round the bottom of her left boot. "You are free to wander where you will, inside or outside the Centre. You may rest when you are exhausted, butñ" he paused and looked into her goggled eyes, "Your Test is to wear this costume for fourteen hours, and in doing so to walk three kilometres. On your left boot I have strapped a pedometer set at zero. When you report at midnight to me it must have registered 3000 metres ! Furthermore, your breathing must remain controlled. " He stepped up to her and slowly tightened the nozzle of her nose-tube. Within seconds she was breathing faster, desperate for the small amount of oxygen which was allowed into the helmet. She looked at him mutely, her eyes pleading. Suddenly he smiled and gently kissed the top of her helmet, then pulled her wrists behind her and handcuffed them together. '-'Remember that I love you, slave Gerda. Keep that thought in your mind all the time you suffer. But remember, of course, that you can apply to any instructor to be released and undressed at any time. But you will have failed your Test." To Be Continued
