Chapter 34 - Mf
Today was the day, she was finally going to meet Mary. She was a little
concerned about this "Crazy Ed," but she knew she could handle him. All these men seem to be the same. But about Mary, she was excited. She always heard Mary was so sad, and Erin was
anxious to try and help her.
At 9:45 she and John were on the couch talking, John had just gotten her some juice. John was anxious about
today too, he'd made some special preparations while Erin was fixing herself up in the bathroom... she'd started being much more concerned about her looks since
entering puberty, and she was using a curling iron to make gorgeous little curls at the bottom of her hair. But while she was in the
bathroom John looked at the juice, and looked at the dose of Ecstasy in his hand. In the past he'd given her a half-dose the first time she met the
Chief, and after that just a quarter dose to make sure she was relaxed with the other men. But this was Crazy Ed. He dropped the entire dose
into the juice, and stirred it up.
"Drink it all," he said to her as they sat down together, waiting. "You need your energy and vitamin C."
Erin just smirked at him, "You're so weird sometimes," and downed the glass.
"But you love me for it."
"You wish!" but then he tickled her, and she laughed, and they kissed, softly, while waiting.
At 10:10 they heard a car pull into the driveway, and then Erin met Crazy Ed. He barged in through the door, Erin looking at him. He was short, and... not fat... but he looked solid, kind of like a fire hydrant, she thought. He had a short sleeved shirt on and his forearms looked really thick, and hairy. John had told her that Ed was the biggest car salesman in town, he owned four car lots, and now that Erin saw him, she recognized him from the TV commercials... "I'm Crazy Ed Donners, And I'm Gonna Make You A Deal!" He saw her staring at him, and he smiled at her, but it gave her a shiver, that smile didn't make him look happy. It made him look like a shark.
Erin almost didn't notice Ed's niece, Mary, walk in the door behind him. She had on a pullover dress, and old shoes. Her hair was kind of messy, like she hadn't brushed it that morning, and Erin thought that Mary had the saddest eyes she had ever seen. Mary looked from John to Erin without seeming to see either of them, and stood beside her uncle, quietly.
Erin felt like she needed to do something. She gathered her courage, stepped forward with her hand out, and started saying, "Hi Ed, I'm Erin and I'm..."
But Ed spoke over her. "Yeah, I heard you haven't trained her at all," he said to John. "She thinks she can just speak to me without permission? Real cute. You've done a real good job here, Officer."
He had startled her, speaking over her like that, and her composure wasn't helped by the
Ecstasy slipping into her blood stream. She suddenly felt off balance.
John stepped in, "Good to see you too, Ed," and then he turned to the girl, "Hello Mary, it is nice to see you as always."
Erin noticed she didn't even look at John, just stood beside Ed.
Ed ignored John, addressing Erin directly. "I've seen what you've done to the other girls, they don't even wear their collars any more except for Laura. And I know you've never had one. Step out of line, and I'm going to let you know it. Also," and he took Mary by the arm, roughly, "She has orders to not speak to you. Ever. You will both do what you're told, and even if I have you eating out each others' ass, you aren't going to say a word to each other. Do you understand me?"
Erin looked at him, and blinked. She looked at John, as if for guidance. John noticed her pupils were getting big.
Shit, did I give her too much Ecstasy?
"Don't look to him for help. I'm speaking to you. Do... you... understand... me?" Ed growled at her.
Erin was frightened. And her heart was beginning to race. And she knew she wanted to help Mary, but she thought she might be too afraid of Ed to do it... "Ok... yes..."
"YES WHAT?"
She almost looked at John again, she was a little confused. She said
softly,"Yes... sir?"
"Exactly." And then to John, "The others tell me you entertain by the pool, now. After you."
John was pissed at the way he was speaking to Erin, but he controlled it. Don't make me kill you,
Ed, he thought to himself. I will.
I should have known Ed was going to block anything Erin tried. He's certainly had enough time to think about it. "Come on sweetie," he said to Erin, holding out his arm.
I shouldn't have called her sweetie, he is going to pick right up on that...
"SWEETIE! That's just wonderful. You should get married to her, you two must be so in love. Go ahead and tell her parents you want to marry their 12 year old daughter. They'll give their blessing and you can live happily ever after," and he laughed loudly, following John to the patio door.
Erin's head was beginning to swim as the biggest dose of Ecstasy John had ever slipped her was coursing through her blood stream. She looked up at John, and asked softly, "I'm only 10, why did he say I was 12?"
Ed didn't hear under his laughing, John leaned down to her, "He doesn't know sweetie... just hang in there... do what he says... and I'll be here if you need me."
"Ok, love you."
John winced, but Ed said nothing.
Erin walked to the umbrella patio, because that's where she always went. Her heart was racing and her skin felt funny, and she was having a hard time thinking. Mary followed her and stood beside her, John sat in his usual
chair. Ed sat in the other. Erin looked at the girl beside her, Mary. She was 10 years old, the same as Erin, and about the same height. She had light brown hair to her shoulders. From what Erin could tell from her profile, she was pretty. In a slow voice Erin said, "Hi, I like your dresssss it'ss pretty."
John noticed Erin was slurring her words. He started to worry he'd given her too much.
Mary ignored her, just looked at her uncle, waiting for orders.
"Yeah girly, see what obedience looks like? She isn't going to disobey me no matter how charming you are. Mary, come here." Ed reached into his pocket and pulled out her collar. John saw he was still using the old, rough rawhide one that left the skin on Mary's neck red. The same collar his previous girl used to wear, he'd been told, before she died.
Mary stepped forward and stood still while Ed put it around her neck, he fastened the collar and spun it to the buckle was in back, John winced when the tight collar pulled at the young girl's skin.
You fucker.
With the collar on, Mary knew that meant she needed to be naked. She unbuttoned the 3 buttons on the front of her
dress and let it fall to her feet. Erin looked at her, very pale, thin, not yet developing. She had bruises on her thighs, they kind of looked like hand prints. And she still had no look in her eyes at all, the collar hadn't changed that. Erin was a little confused. "Are you ok? You ssseem ssad...."
"What's wrong with your girl, Officer? She seems a little confused. Not used to
seeing what a real relationship looks like?" and Ed laughed again.
John knew the only way out of this was through... he needed to get Ed finished and out of here before he went too far.
From far away Erin heard John's voice, "Erin, undress please, like Mary."
In a singsong voice Erin answered, "Ok," and began undressing.
Ed watched her. He watched the little blonde bitch take off her clothes. Little bitch thinks she's pretty great without a collar. I'll show her how wrong she is. He saw her tanned skin, no tan lines. He saw her
small breasts, his cock started getting hard. Yeah John thinks he is King shit with
his little princess. He thinks he is going to tell me how to get along with these little bitches. He needs to be brought down a peg just like his little bitch does. He watched Erin step out of her panties, and stand next to Mary.
Completely naked, Erin took Mary's hand and held it, without thinking about it. Mary tried to flinch away but Erin held on, she looked
at her uncle, frightened, not sure what to do. Erin was just staring off into space, eyes completely dilated.
John could hardly see any blue in her eyes at all. Fuuuuuck
Ed just muttered, "Yeah, real fukkin cute." And then louder, "MARY, get to officer, you know what to do," and Mary walked over to John. "And you, little cutie pie, get over here."
Erin walked over to Ed, completely unaware now of what was going on, just doing whatever these nice people wanted her to do. Her heart was racing, her flesh was squirming on her bones, she actually felt kinda nice, and she had no idea where she was, but that's ok. John is over there with that nice girl, he'll make her feel good.
"Take out my cock, you little bitch," Ed said to Erin.
In that same sweet voice, Erin replied, "Ok," and knelt down on bare knees on the
concrete, and started undoing Ed's belt. She didn't feel the rough surface
under her knees.
The fact she wasn't scared was pissing Ed off. She should be fucking shaking by now. "Hurry up you little slut, it isn't going to suck itself."
Oh he's funny Erin thought to herself, going for this man's cock, and starting to get turned on, herself. In her own way she had been conditioned, too... this situation, with John, and another man, and another girl, meant orgasms. She was currently incapable of coherent thought, but her body remembered this. She
undid his pants, and reached inside his boxers. She couldn't find his penis. "What?" she giggled to herself.
John felt a chill, as Mary stood in his arm, naked, waiting for orders. Oh fuck, I forgot to remind Erin to not mention his small dick...
Erin had her entire hand now in his boxer shorts, she looked up at Ed smiling, and giggled, "I can't find it!" And then for a while everything went dark for her.
Ed was watching the little blonde bitch, he was hard now, his full three inches,
and this little bitch was going to feel all of them before this day was done.
And that little faggot John is going to watch me fuck her mouth, and her asshole, and he made me wait all this time and he thinks I'm not going to fuck her little pussy, but he is in for a
surprise.
Erin looked up at him and said she couldn't find his cock, and in an instant Crazy Ed Donners roared and backhanded Erin across the face with his full force. She was already
unconscious when she landed on the concrete next to the pool
John watched it all happen, but was too slow to stop it. He was reaching to the flower pot on the table... the pot of flowers that Erin's Mom had put there for Erin's birthday party last Fall. The flowers had done well with the Florida heat, rain, and sunshine. The flowers had overflowed the pot, you couldn't even see the top half of it any more. John reached into the blooms as Ed approached Erin,
Oh my god he's going to kick her, John thought, when his hand found what it was looking for. Ed was pulling back his foot to kick Erin in the stomach when John put his
service pistol at the back of Ed's head. "If you move another inch, you are going to die today."
Ed froze, on one foot. All he wanted was to punt this little cunt into orbit, but he knew what that was against the back of his head. He slowly lowered his foot. "You're going to pay for this," he said to John in a scarily calm voice. "And so is she."
John cocked the gun. "Say another word. Give me a reason."
Ed put his hands up to his sides, he knew John was serious. "It's cool. We're good." he stepped away from Erin, a step away from John, and
turned around, and looked down the barrel. "I'll be going now. Mary, get dressed, NOW," but never taking his eyes off of John.
John looked into Crazy Ed's eyes, and saw the madness inside them. I should just shoot him now. I know I need to shoot him now. I'll think of some reason. I need to do it. I know I need to do it.
But John didn't.
John followed him and Mary through the house, and kept the front door cracked while they walked to their car and left, gun hidden behind his back out of view from the street. He closed and locked the door and raced to Erin.
She was lying where she'd fallen, John turned her over, she moaned lightly. Thank god she's alive. John patted her cheeks, "Sweetie... sweetie..." she didn't respond. He opened her eyelids, right side completely dilated...
god I hope that's because of the drug... left eye dilated and bloody. Fuck.
John wrapped a robe around her and carried her to his car and raced to the hospital, grabbing his phone and dialing as he drove. He was muttering to himself, "You better fucking be on duty right now... god fucking help you..."
From the phone John heard, "Hello, this is Doctor Mike Turner, how can I help you?"
John answered back, "Whatever, it's me, Officer, Crazy Ed hurt Erin bad, we're on the way to the hospital, tell me you're there today."
There was a pause... and then Whatever answered, "Fuuuuuck..... yeah, I'm here. What's her condition?"
"Blow to the head, I'm not sure what did more damage, his backhand, or where she hit her head on the concrete."
"Status? Is she bleeding? Are her eyes dilated?"
"Dilated, blood in her left cornea. Dilation could be from the dose of Ecstasy."
"Half dose?"
"Full."
Full dose, for her size?... why would he... "Oh... Crazy Ed."
"Crazy Ed."
"How far away are you?"
"Four minutes. Blowing lights. Hoping to not get noticed."
"I'll meet you at the door to the E.R., and get on top of the case. We've got this. Where's Ed, still alive?"
"For now."
"Hurry up."
John hurried up. He didn't like how Erin was still unconscious.
+++
Doctor Mike Turner, the secret source of abortion and birth control pills for the group, AKA Laura's father with the code name of 'Whatever,' just happened to be at the pneumatic doors
of the emergency room when John ran in carrying Erin. He also just happened to be standing by a
wheeled gurney, which he provided to this random person carrying in this random little girl. "What happened to this girl?" he asked John, all business.
John was ready. "Slip and fall, patio concrete, while changing to go swimming. Struck her head hard.
Unconscious, non responsive to stimulus." The nurse who'd run up and was
listening for Erin's heartbeat glanced at his use of lingo, "I'm a cop," he told them, and they went to work on Erin, checking her pulse and eyes and everything else they always do, as Erin was wheeled away from John. John stood
there alone, thinking to himself... God, please, let her be ok... you make her ok and... and I'll... and then John had a moment of clarity, standing there in the entrance of this hospital, Erin hurt, maybe badly, and all because of him. Because of his actions. He had parked her directly in front of that psycho, and he let him at her like a rabid dog with a piece of meat.
This is my fault. I did this to her.
And right there and then, thinking more clearly than he ever had in his life, John made a decision.
I've got to get her out.
Twenty minutes later John was contemplating what he was going to say to Erin's parents, he figured he had another 20 minutes before he had to call, when 'Whatever' came through a door and walked to him. "Relax, she's ok. We gave her an MRI, and there's no concussion and no brain bleed. She's developing a big bruise, and right now it looks like the back of Ed's hand, but it should spread within the next half hour and I will claim it is
consistent with falling onto concrete. She woke up and started to recognize me, and she asked if Mary was ok, and she is very much high on
Ecstasy, but I gave her a sedative when the nurses weren't looking and she'll sleep it off. She should be awake in a few hours and will have a really bad headache. Have you called her parents yet?"
"No, was just about to."
"Well that's our story. Call them, she slipped and hit her head on concrete while changing for the pool. When
Erin wakes up I'll make sure her parents aren't there, and I'll fill her in on the story real quick.
My shift just ended and today she is my only patient, and this should all be fine."
John was allowing himself to feel relief. "Thanks, I appreciate it."
"Hey, we take care of each other." And then he paused, "Except for Ed. He's going to go away now, right? I don't like him with Laura, either."
"Yeah, one way or another, he's done." And John began to think, even as he dialed Erin's Mom's phone number.
