Whips and paddles

Suddenly another tremor shook the room. Lauren stumbled, barely keeping her footing in her heels. The frightened cameramen filmed from the doorway, knowing they'd be berated if they stopped.

"The presence is here!" Liz cried dramatically. Lauren tried to mock her, but was barely holding herself upright. These tremors were strange, she could not argue that. Even though she wanted to.

Just as suddenly as it had begun the shaking stop. Lauren, hair now a bit disheveled, tried to catch her breath. She leaned heavily on the wall.

Suddenly, with a ghastly moan, all the tools lining the walls began to shake. The whips slapped and rattled. The paddles clacked against the stone wall. Lauren scanned the room, now feeling deep fear. She suddenly turned to Liz.

"How are you doing this?!" Lauren demanded.

"Me?! How could I be responsible?!" Liz yelled back, too scared to enter. "I told you, it's the ghost, and you've angered it with your arrogance!"

"Don't be absurd." Lauren scoffed, pride pushing down her fear. Then, to the onlooker's shock, a short riding crop shot off the wall. As if propelled by an unseen hand it flew hard and fast, smacking Lauren in the skirt as it wizzed by her.

"AHH!" Lauren yelped, whirring around in shock. As she turned a paddle behind her flew from the wall, slamming into her backside with a loud 'Twap!"

"AH! Stop it!" Lauren yelled, spinning helplessly. There was no denying it. She was utterly terrified. What was happening?! It was more then simple wire tricks. This was real, and it terrified her.

Lauren turned back to the paddles, slamming her arms against them to hold as many as she could in place. Unfortunately, this positioned her butt out, pointed straight at the whips. Three short whips slashed across her backside in quick succession.

WHAP!
SMACK!
FWAP!

Lauren squealed, stumbling forward in shock and pain. Her skirt was cut in three places from the slashes. These really hurt! She was grateful she had a skirt, slip and panties protecting her, or else this would be really bad!

The cameramen, shocked and amazed, continued filming.
