Chapter 65

While Veronique was comforting Sandra in her arms, the other cops gathered the boys around. Some of them went along willingly, while others had to be handcuffed because they kept on trying to get away.

Once they were arrested, the cops started to lead them away to where they had parked their cars. Although, one of the cops even called in a special arrest van to bring the more rebellious boys to the precinct.

Jim, who was still lying on the ground, was helped to his feet by two cops. He was still naked from the waist down, and the cops didn't bother to gather his things.

"She bwoke my noze!" he complained to the cops.

"Be glad she didn't break anything else on you, you filthy pig!" the female cop said while she grabbed the condom hanging on his flaccid dick and pulled it off. "Bag this for evidence," she said to another cop while giving it to him.

Sandra could hear the conversation behind her, and this made her look over her shoulder. She saw how Jim was being led away by the two cops. She couldn't help but smile when she saw how his proud member had now become nothing more than a little dangling shrimp.

"Sandra?" Veronique said. "Are you hurt?"

"Um ... no ... I don't think so," Sandra answered, still looking at how Jim was pulled along by those two cops.

"Just let me have a quick look at you," Veronique said.

"Um ... okay," Sandra answered.

Veronique let go of Sandra and let her stand in front of her. She quickly checked Sandra's body and wiped some dirt away at certain places to see if the skin underneath it was undamaged. Veronique couldn't find any wounds on Sandra's body, and after she had wiped off the blood that clung to Sandra's knuckles, she was glad to see that she had no little wounds there as well. At most, Sandra would maybe have some bruised knuckles from the pounding she had given that guy.

During Veronique's inspection, Sandra had been looking around her, and she had seen how Melinda had slipped back into the water to swim the boat to shore. Janet had been helped out of the boat by a cop, while another cop helped Melinda out of the water.

Sandra could hear how the cop that had helped Melinda asked her where her clothes were. After Melinda had answered him that she had no clothes with her, because she was on an ADP punishment, the cop had given another cop an order to get something. But for now, Melinda just stood there with them, naked and dripping wet.

"Sandra!" Veronique said to get Sandra's attention back to her. However, Sandra didn't answer her, so Veronique had to say Sandra's name again, but more loudly this time.

"Um ... Yes," Sandra responded finally and looked at Veronique.

"I have to ask you this," Veronique said apologetic. "Did he ... um ... did he penetrate you?"

"No, no, he didn't. Well, not completely."

"How do you mean?" Veronique wanted to know.

"Well, um ... his ... the head of his penis did go inside me for a second," Sandra said while she shivered a little.

"I'm sorry," Veronique said. "I wish we could have been here sooner!"

"It's okay. It was also my fault ... well ... for a little."

"No! This isn't your fault!" Veronique said with her voice slightly raised. "When it comes to rape, or attempted rape, it's never the fault of the victim!"

"I don't mean that," Sandra said and tried to smile, but it was a very awkward smile. "I meant, because I pulled up my legs, well, I also raised my pelvis a little and ... um ... that's when his thing slipped inside of me."

"Mmm, okay," Veronique said. She wasn't sure how to respond to this, but for now, she thought it would be better to let it rest. She was sure that it would be better to wait until Sandra was in a safer environment to ask her more about the things that had happened to her here. At least, it seemed that physically, Sandra was okay. However, Veronique was more concerned about Sandra's mental state.

When Janet noticed that the guy, who had tried to help them at the end, was helped to his feet by a cop, and that this cop wanted to pull him along with the other boys, Janet ran towards them.

"Sir, please, he tried to help us! He isn't like those other guys!" Janet told the cop when she stood with them.

The cop looked at Janet then at the guy and asked, "Did he arrive with them or afterwards?"

"Um ... with them," Janet answered.

"Then, he is also an accomplish."

"But, he tried to help us in the end."

"Sorry miss, we have to take him in as well."

"But..."

"I'm really sorry, but he has to come with us. However, you can help him by giving the inspectors who will investigate this incident a detailed explanation about what happened here. I'm sure this will help him in the end."

"Fine, I'll do that then," Janet said somewhat disappointed. She then looked at the guy and said, "Thanks for trying!"

"I'm really sorry," the guy said and gave Janet a little smile. "I'm glad you are unhurt!"

"Thanks," Janet said back and returned his smile.

The cop then led the boy up to slope and followed the others.

Another cop, who had returned, was carrying a towel. He brought it to Melinda. Melinda quickly wiped herself dry with it and then wrapped the towel around her body. Melinda decided to go to Sandra and Veronique, mostly because Melinda wanted to know if Sandra was okay.

When she reached them, Melinda asked Sandra, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine!" Sandra answered.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes! I'm sure!"

Melinda gave Sandra a look over and noticed that except from a lot of dirt covering Sandra's body, she did look unhurt. Although, she couldn't understand how Sandra could just stand there, still naked and proud, after what she had gone through.

"Um ... excuse me?" Veronique said to get Melinda's attention.

"Yes?"

"Sorry for asking you this, but are you on an ADP punishment?"

"Yes?!"

"Then ... um ... you can't cover up like that."

"WHAT?!" Melinda let out in surprise and anger.

"I'm sorry, but you can't cover up."

"Not even after what has happened here?" Melinda asked somewhat frustrated.

"I'm sorry, but no."

Melinda sighed, took hold of the towel covering her body and pulled it off of her. She could have left it by that, but she threw the towel towards Veronique and asked, "Happy now?"

Veronique felt very uncomfortable that she had to do this, but she had seen how two inspectors were coming down the slope and from the brassard around their arms, she knew they were special ADP cops. Those cops had strict guidelines to punish minors if they tried to cover up when they were on an ADP punishment. Even in a situation like this, they would uphold the law and dish out extra punishments if any of those minors would try to cover their bodies.

"Excuse me," one of the ADP inspectors said.

Sandra and Melinda looked at him, while Janet came standing with them as well.

"Could we have a word with you girls?" he asked.

"Not now," Veronique answered instead of the girls. "Before you start questioning the girls, maybe we could go to a place where they feel more comfortable."

"But we just need to ask them a few questions. I'm sure we can do it here!" the ADP inspector said.

"I disagree," Veronique answered. "Let me bring these girls to their home first, and we will talk with them there!"

The ADP inspector let out a grunt, but conceded by saying, "Okay, if you insist!"

"I insist!" Veronique said with some authority behind it.

The inspector looked at them and noticed that from the three girls standing with Veronique, only one had clothes on.

"If you don't mind," he started to say and then pointed at Janet. "Maybe this girl could go to the precinct and give her statement to my colleague there. And I will follow you to one of the other girls' home to get their statements there."

Before Veronique could say anything, Janet answered, "That's fine with me!"

Veronique had wished to keep the girls together, but if Janet was okay with it, she had to let the girl go with the other cop.

"Are you okay with this?" Veronique asked the girls.

They all agreed with it.

"Okay, I'll take these two to Sandra's home, and you can ask your questions there. And the other girl will go with your colleague to the precinct."

Veronique gave the inspector Sandra's address and then said, "We will see you there then."

The two inspectors nodded to the girls, and then they walked away.

"Am I in trouble?" Sandra asked Veronique.

"Why do you ask that?" Veronique wanted to know.

"Well, I couldn't help but notice that you were a bit protective about us towards them."

"I don't trust them," Veronique confessed. "Those cops are from a special unit that solely handles crimes that involve ADP minors."

"And why wouldn't you trust them?"

"I can't explain. It's just a vibe I get from them," Veronique then looked at Melinda and said, "That's why I also asked you to remove the towel. Those cops have been ordered that in all situations, they have to uphold the ADP punishment and give extra punishments for the slightest infraction of the rules."

"Oh ... I see!" Melinda let out. "I thought ... I'm sorry! Thanks for ... well ... getting me naked in time!"

Melinda gave Veronique a little smile and then they suddenly all started to laugh. To the surprise of the few remaining cops which were still lingering around and taking care of things that had been left behind. Like Jim's clothes and stuff like that.

"Veronique?" Sandra asked.

"Yes?"

"I see they are collecting our backpacks and things, are they taking them to the precinct or can we have them with us?"

Veronique thought about it for a moment and then said, "Well, they will take everything to the precinct, but if Janet goes with them, she can tell them what belongs to you guys and what belongs to those other guys. Then I will make sure they bring everything to you home this evening or tomorrow."

"Okay, could you make sure they also bring that piece of stone that is lying in the boat to my home," Sandra said. "That's why we were here today."

"Huh?!" Veronique let out in surprise.

"We need it for school," Sandra explained.

"I'll make sure they will bring it as well."

"Thanks!"

Veronique walked up to the cops gathering the things left behind and explained to them what they had to do with it all.

This left the girls alone for a moment, and Janet took advantage of this to ask Sandra something difficult.

"Sandra ... um ... did that guy ... um ... rape you?"

"No, he didn't," Sandra answered. "Those cops arrived just in time."

Janet let out a sigh in relief and said, "I'm happy for you. I don't know how ... um ... I would..."

"It's okay," Sandra interrupted her and smiled. "I'm fine! We are all fine! So, I'm planning to forget all about this after we have talked with those other cops."

Janet and Melinda both looked at Sandra and Sandra did her best to smile at them in her usual way. Although, both girls could notice that the smile was forced. Maybe Sandra said that she was okay, but both of them thought that Sandra was acting stronger than she really felt at the moment.

"Janet, could you go with my colleague here to the precinct and deal with the paperwork and other stuff?" Veronique asked from afar.

"Sure," Janet answered and walked up to Veronique and the cop that was standing with her.

Sandra and Melinda followed as well, because it was obvious that it was time to leave this place.

Janet and the cop walked up the slope first and Veronique, Sandra and Melinda followed them.

When the girls walked past their bikes, Sandra asked, "Um ... what about our bikes?"

The cop with Janet turned around and said, "I have already made arrangements for them. A minivan will pick them up and bring them to your home."

With that taken care off, they walked on towards where the cops had parked their cars.

Luckily, for Sandra and Melinda, Veronique had used an unmarked police car to get here, instead of her own car. So, the girls could sit comfortably in the back while Veronique drove to Sandra's home.

Sandra was very happy when they finally stopped in front of her home. She barely had gotten out of the car when she saw her mother storming out of the front door and running towards them. Seeing her, broke Sandra's resolve and all the remaining pent-up emotions got free. Sandra ran towards her mother, and they hugged each other while Sandra started to cry again.

Shirley tried to comfort her daughter as well as she could and rubbed her back in a comforting way. She was anxious to know what had happened to her daughter, but for now kept her questions to herself. From the phone-call she had received not so long ago, she knew that some boys had been caught trying to rape some girls, but she didn't know if they had succeeded or not, and if it was Sandra or maybe Melinda that had been the victim. Or, had they both been raped? Although, from Sandra's reaction, she was now sure that it had been her daughter who had been raped. It saddened her a lot.

After Sandra had calmed down enough, Shirley took hold onto Sandra's shoulders and looking at her daughter asked, "Are you okay? Did they ... rape you?"

"No, I wasn't raped," Sandra answered sobbing.

This made Shirley look at Melinda, but before she could ask her anything, Melinda was already shaking with her head to tell Shirley that she wasn't raped either.

Shirley looked back at her daughter and asked, "Did they hurt you?"

"No," Sandra answered again.

"So, what did happen then?"

"They ... they..." Sandra started to say, but she couldn't find the right words right away.

"Maybe, we could better take the girls inside," the ADP inspector, who had arrived as well, suddenly said.

"Of course, you're right!" Shirley told the cop. She let go of Sandra, but kept one of her arms around Sandra's shoulders and walked her inside their home. Veronique and Melinda followed with the inspector at the end of the group.

Just before they went inside, a minivan arrived and Veronique excused herself. She wanted to make sure that the bikes of the girls would be placed behind the fence of the garden. After she had taken care of this, she joined the others inside the house.

Veronique walked in, at the moment that the ADP inspector was taking charge of things.

"If you girls don't mind, I would like to take your statements now."

"Um ... would it be okay if I get dressed first?" Melinda asked.

"Are you allowed to?" the inspector wanted to now.

"Yes, my punishment ended after school, but my clothes were here, so I couldn't get dressed, until now, that is."

"If that's the case, sure, you can get dressed while I talk with your friend here. Or, is she also allowed to get dressed?"

"No, I'm not," Sandra answered for herself.

"Maybe we could go sit in the living room then, I'm sure that this will be more comfortable," Veronique suggested.

"That would maybe be best," the inspector acknowledged.

"Um ... where can I find my clothes?" Melinda asked Shirley.

"They are in the kitchen," Shirley answered.

"Okay, thanks," Melinda said.

While Sandra, Veronique, Shirley and the inspector went sitting on the sofa's in the living room, Melinda walked towards the kitchen to get her clothes and get dressed.

Sandra was sitting on the sofa, between Veronique and her mother. The ADP inspector went sitting on the sofa that faced them all.

Shirley was a little surprised when she noticed that her daughter was leaning with her body against Veronique instead of her. However, Shirley could see that Veronique's presence did help Sandra a lot, and so, she wasn't jealous about it. In fact, she was happy that Sandra had somebody else who cared about her as mush as she did it seemed.

"So, could you tell me exactly what has happened today?" the ADP inspector asked Sandra. "By the way, is it okay if I tape our conversation?"

"Um ... sure!" Sandra answered.

The ADP inspector pulled a little tape-recorder out of his pocket and laid it on the table in between them. He pressed a button on it and then said, "Okay, tell me in your own words what has happened at the stone quarry."

Sandra took a deep breath and then started to tell him why she and her friends were there. She also told him about how those boys had arrived while she had been underwater and Melinda had been waiting for her in the boat.

"When I saw those boys, I knew that something was up. Although, what they were planning for us, I couldn't know for sure, but I still sent Veronique a text-message and asked her for help."

"What did you sent her?"

"Oh, just: '112 quarry'," Sandra answered.

"That was very smart of you," the inspector said.

"Thanks!" Sandra responded and felt somewhat proud about it.

"Although, I must confess, I didn't expect her to arrive with all those other cops," Sandra said smiling at Veronique.

"When I got her message, I just knew she needed a lot of help," Veronique explained. "Not that I know her that well already, but I was sure she would never send a message like that if she didn't think she was in grave danger. So, I called dispatching and asked them to send a few cop cars to the stone quarry. I joined them and we would have been earlier at the quarry, if some guy hadn't parked his car in the middle of the trail that we needed to take. Because of this, we had to run towards the quarry, and I can say, we barely arrived on time."

"That was really smart thinking of both of you," the ADP inspector complimented them. "And what happened next."

And so, Sandra explained everything to the ADP inspector and how she was about to be raped when one of those cops called out to them. The ADP inspector was glad to hear that this boy had slightly penetrated his victim, because this would increase the punishment he would receive. Although, in the way it happened, it could also be seen as just an attempted rape. And then there was also the assault of Sandra against this guy. He knew that this could get her into trouble as well if that guy would press charges. However, that was something he didn't want to think about yet, and maybe he could make a deal with that guy to make sure this girl wouldn't be punished for being a victim. She had gone through enough already, it seemed.

Another thing he liked, was how those other boys actively had participated in all of this, this meant that they could also get a more severe punishment. Although, it also will depend on their status. If they were minors, an appropriate ADP punishment would be given, but the adults under them, they would end up in prison for sure.

In any case, the fact that those boys had attacked girls who were on an ADP punishment would increase their punishments for sure, but it also would mean that everything had to be dealt with in secret. If a thing like this would get out in the open, it could mean a lot of trouble for those supporting the ADP laws.

It was at this point that Melinda came back into the living room. Looking at Melinda, fully dressed again, it was obvious that she felt much better already.

The ADP inspector looked at Sandra and said, "Thank you for telling everything in such great detail to me. It sure will help to convict those boys."

"You're welcome," Sandra said and managed a smile.

"Sandra, maybe you could go upstairs and take a shower now, while the inspector has a talk with Melinda," Shirley suggested.

Sandra sure could use a shower. Rolling around on the ground at the quarry had left her body streaked with filthy looking smudges, but Shirley also thought that a hot shower could maybe make her daughter feel much better. A shower always relaxed her, so maybe it would have the same effect on Sandra as well.

"Um ... okay," Sandra answered. Then looked at Veronique and asked, "Would you mind helping me?"

This question surprised everyone present, but still, Veronique answered, "Sure, if you want me to."

"I want you to," Sandra said smiling.

Sandra stood up, took Veronique's hand in hers and pulled her along towards the staircase. When they walked past Melinda, Sandra smiled at Melinda very curious and also winked at her. Melinda was somewhat stunned by this. Was Sandra telling her that she was fine with what had happened to her? Or ... was she telling her that she was going upstairs to have some fun with Veronique? Melinda wasn't sure what to think about all of this.

However, when she saw how Veronique wiped some dirt off of Sandra's buttocks, while going up the stairs, and how Sandra pushed her ass a little towards Veronique, Melinda was sure that once those two would be out of side, more intimate touching would probably happen between those two.

With Sandra and Veronique gone, Melinda's attention went back to the ADP inspector sitting on the sofa and who was looking at her. It seemed that Sandra's mother was going to stay with her for moral support. Melinda was glad about this, because she sure could use it.

Melinda took a deep breath and walked up to the sofa, where Sandra and Veronique had been sitting on a minute ago.

The ADP inspector looked at her and asked, "Could you also tell me, in as much detail as possible, what has happened at the stone quarry?"

"Sure," Melinda said while nodding with her head.

Melinda told everything she could remember but also told the inspector about how she had some gaps in her memory because she had trouble with people, especially boys, touching her and how she sometimes retreated into her own mind, so she wouldn't know what was happening to her. This last part surprised the cop a lot, because he recognized this as a coping mechanism he had seen by other girls, and even some boys, that he had questioned before. All those girls and boys had been sexually intimidated over a long period of time, and so he wondered if there was something going on with this girl which she didn't want to tell him about. When he asked Melinda is she wanted to talk about something else, Melinda just told him there was nothing else. With that, the cop was unable to ask her more questions about it to see what else was going on in this girl's life. He was sure she had a secret for him, but he couldn't do anything if she didn't want to talk about it.
