#01 - Let the Punishment Fit the Crime - Vengeance
A fiction by Seraphim

**********************************************************************

Why has it been so? Why have I been denied the position of president, when I am clearly the one superior? Is it because of my arrogance? That is unlikely as my leadership capabilities far overshadows that. I brushed all these thoughts aside as the president's face appeared in front of mine, asking for further instructions. I glanced at the script and directed the juniors to their assigned positions. The excos were doing a final round of the rehearsal for the Councillors' Investiture as the day was coming to an end. Everyone was tensed about the upcoming event.

Just days ago, the executive comittee members were assigned their positions. To our horror, it did not turn out to be anywhere near our predictions. To lead this batch of excos was an unexpected person, one who has brewed much hatred in the rest of us. While none of us voiced out our displeasure, we were still not content with the president. And we definitely did not intend to leave things that way...

All of the excos bid the juniors farewell as they exited the school gate. As usual, we lingered around the school grounds a little longer. Unknowingly by the president, the excos were slyly eyeing him, waiting for the signal to strike. Without warning, the sky darkened. The signal has been issued.

With the wave of his hand and a silent incantation, the discipline officer cast an illusion spell around the compound to keep out prying eyes. There was a hushed cry of panic by the president as we cornered him into a wall. The excos closed their eyes and reached out into the grounds with their minds into the lush greeneries of the Earth. The forest lent forth its energies at those who were seeking it. With the power that they gathered, they channeled it into the school grounds and willed it at the president. From the very soil around him, vines started sprouting and wrapping themselves around the president. He was trapped in place, right where we wanted him.

Unfortunately for the president, the excos were made up not by normal students, but elite spellcasters. We have spent months plotting for domination over the school through the council board, but he crushed our hopes by winning our ultimate goal. With the President's Badge is the will and power to govern the students. Despite our powers, we could not alter will to have the badge given to us. Now that he has the badge, we would teach him a lesson to bend him to our will.

Now it was my turn to cast my spell. The Illusion Spell and the Earth Spell was only to set things up, it would be my Vengeance Spell that would torment his soul. Just like the excos, I closed my eyes and reached with my mind. Unlike them, I reached inside myself, looking for all that hatred that has been stored up and waiting to be unleashed. I opened my eyes again, this time with reddish flames flaring from my hands. Slowly, I reached for the president, not for his physical body, but his very soul.

He arched his back and shrieked as my hands touched his life's essence. As I established a firm grip, I looked into my mind further for every drop of hatred within me and fueled it into the spell. I mutterred a silent incantation and finally unleashed the full extent of the Vengeance Spell.

He was lost for words as the pain he experienced was beyond anything that existed on the face of the Earth. In fact, the pain was summoned from Hell itself. Though his physical body could do nothing but paralyse at the pain, we recognised the astral scream from his soul that echoed the dimentional walls. It was the most exhilirating sight. Pure suffering was right before us. All of us basked in sadistic pleasure as we absorbed all the vengeance that came from his pain. This would be one heck of a lesson that he would never forget...

So, that was my first sadistic fiction. You see what happens when someone reads too much fantasy stories? Anyway, remember that this is all crap and to be taken light-heartedly. Hope you guys enjoyed this. Give me comments via the tag board!
