The punishment begins

A small chuckle came from the man as he looked at Pete's enraged face, now frozen in time. Karma didn't discriminate and was something that comes back to bite everyone eventually, no matter how well off or in control a person might think they are.

Easily side-stepping Pete's frozen fist, the man decided to start his work at Lifetime Fitness with an effective yet simple slice of justice. In a quick motion, he pulled Pete's sweatpants and boxers to the floor, revealing his flaccid dick to the entirety of the gym. With clever manoeuvring, he redirected Pete's arm so that the fist which was about to come into contact with the man's face was now only an inch or two away from Pete's exposed genitals.

Smirking, the man hopped back to the position he was originally in and restarted time.

"HAAAA--GAHHHHHHH!!!" Pete's rallying war cry quickly shifted to a grunt of pain as the full **** of his punch slammed into his dick.

The sudden shock and the need to process what was going on **** Pete to tumble back a few steps towards an empty weight tree pressed against the wall. Adding to his misfortune, the sweatpants and boxers around his ankles meant that he was unable to keep his balance, tipping him backwards and into the weight tree. Even the man couldn't believe what he was seeing as Pete's ass landed perfectly onto one of the weight tree's spokes, to which the disgruntled gym lover made a face with such expression that it told the man exactly where the spoke had gone.

"Pete! What the fuck are you doing!" Emma screamed with a hand covering her mouth as she had begun to process what she just saw.

"YOU-!" Ethan turned towards the man, ready to take action, when Pete let out another noise which caused everyone's heads to turn.

The man remembered back to when he was assigned this case, that his clients' main grievance with Pete, in particular, was that he never put the weights back on the tree and dumped them all over the gym. Well now there were no weights on the tree, which Pete found out, to his horror, meant that there was no counterweight to stop his body from falling forwards. The half naked man fell face first onto the hard gym floor as Pete found himself pinned to the ground, the spoke of the weight tree still penetrating his virgin asshole.

The man stood there in a stunned silence as he watched what just happened. He had no part in what had just happened. This was... real karma. He couldn't express it on the outside but deep inside the man was overjoyed like a kid on Christmas morning. It was so rare on his cases that he would see real karma handed out that did not involve his supernatural abilities.

"GET THIS OFF ME!" Pete cried in desperation as Ethan and Emma rushed over to their fallen friend. From behind him the man heard a few whispers from the crowd of regular gym-goers that were still frightened of the hateful eight but were loving what they were seeing unfold in front of their eyes.

"Holy shit! I got that on video!" A hushed, excited whisper came from an average looking man in a blue nike tracksuit.

"You could ruin one of the hateful eight if you spread that!" His bubbly friend gasped.

"I'm going to tell all of the Saturday yoga class about this." A middle aged woman could barely contain her laughter.

The man felt that enough damage had been done for now and stopped time, swiftly exiting the scene before anyone could notice that he had gone.

"Hey! GET OVER HERE NOW-" Ethan turned to face the man but he was no longer there. "WHERE DID THAT LITTLE SHIT GO!?" Ethan screamed at the crowd, however, none of them were exactly eager to give up the hero that had just caused one of the hateful eight to humiliate themselves.

Meanwhile the man had escaped to another part of the gym. It was safe to say that in the coming days, Pete would find himself not coming to Lifetime Fitness out of embarrassment. Just to be sure, the man had obtained a copy of the video on his way out from the man in the blue tracksuit as time was stopped. If Pete continued to be a nuisance to the people of the gym, he would make sure that the video would fall into the hands of people that would cause Pete's life to become a lot harder. With one of the hateful eight out of business the man set his sights on his next target.
