Chapter One - A new client
Reginald walked into the modern office space, located on the outskirts of the city, with a raised eyebrow. If the stories he had heard were true, this was one of the most highly guarded secret facilities in the country if not the world. It looked little different than any of a thousand low rise office buildings that surrounded the city.
He walked up to the receptionist desk, the sleek metal and wood design was simple but stylish. Behind it on the wall was the modernly styled logo and the name of the company, "Positive Outcomes".
Sitting in the seat was a young woman, her blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail and she wore a smart power suit that hugged her thin frame. She looked up and smiled, "Hello, welcome to Positive Outcomes! How may I assist you?" she asked with a chipper attitude.
"I have a meeting with Mr. Trench at 2." he replied, his lips almost forming a smile but the gesture, so foreign to his face, failed to fully materialize.
"Oh, you must be Mr. Thompson, please have a seat and Mr. Trench's assistant will be right out to get you." the receptionist said and waved him over to the small group of chairs and a couch huddled around a coffee table filled with magazines.
He grunted in return and walked over to the couch, taking a seat but ignoring the magazines for his phone, reading through his e-mail and other items that were waiting for him. It was only a few minutes before another young woman, her heels clicking on the hard tile flooring of the office, came to retrieve him.
"Mr. Thompson, if you would please come with me?" she said smiling and directing him back into the office.
His opinion of the facilities didn't change the farther back she led him, the dull colours, rows of cubicles with offices around the outside and the flickering fluorescent lights would have been just as much at home at a government office or any large company.
There were a few people milling about, a mixture of young and old, men and women, all seemingly busy at whatever tasks they had been assigned.
They reached the back of the space where two larger offices were and the assistant led him into the one of the right, the sign on the glass of the office read "Donald Trench, CEO".
As he walked into the office the assistant closed the door behind him and Mr. Trench rose from his large chair behind his desk, a smile coming easily to his lips "Welcome Mr. Thompson, please have a seat."
Reginald took a quick look around the office, much like the reception area it was modern and minimalistic in nature. The desk was a large piece of glass with chrome legs, a computer and monitor the only things on it. On the wall to Reginald's right was another large monitor and the other walls of the office were sparsely adorned with modern art of some kind.
"Thank you, I have to say I'm not very impressed so far Mr. Trench."
"Oh, you mean the office? Yes well, it's intended to be that way, no better place to hide such an organization than in plain sight after all."
"I suppose." he conceded with a frown, "But from what I've heard I would have expected more... security."
"I understand, many of our new clients feel the same way at first, but we have built our organization to be secure without having to be so... gaudy, about it. I can assure you, the security and privacy of our work here is of the utmost importance to us."
"Yes, now about that work... our mutual acquaintance was a little vague about what exactly you do. Other than to assure me you could help with my current problem.
"Well Mr. Thompson... do you mind if I call you Reginald? We here at Positive Outcomes specialize in rehabilitating problematic individuals."
"That would be fine Donald. So you work with criminals to make them productive members of society again?"
"No, well sometimes, our clients are very diverse. Without naming names, they include governments, fortune 500 companies, criminal organizations, supervillains and even a few superheroes."
Reginald raised an eyebrow and Donald replied to the unasked question, "Yes, you see we don't discriminate on who qualifies as a problematic individual, we let our clients make the decision. We feel that we just aren't qualified to make those kinds of decisions, so we take on any client that can afford our services."
"Very entrepreneurial of you." Reginald replied with a huff.
"And very profitable as well." Donald replied without the slightest hint of subtlety or shame.
"So, if I have a 'problematic individual' that needs to be... rehabilitated, what exactly can you do for me?"
"Perhaps it would be easier to show you, we have three individuals in treatment now that I think will interest you. Let me bring up their current status..." Donald said as he typed on his computer for a moment and then the larger monitor on the wall came to life.
Chapter Two - SolarGirl
Reginald watched the video being displayed and leaned forward in his seat, it was obviously a live feed of a small room, in the center was a naked woman sitting in a steel framework of some kind.
"I'm sure that even without her costume you recognize SolarGirl?" Donald asked.
"Yes... yes, obviously." Reginald replied, taken aback by what was on the display.
SolarGirl was clearly not restrained in the metal frame but was making no attempt to raise herself from it either. Instead, she seemed to almost be relaxed as she leaned forward into it, her breasts protruding through two holes in it and her chin resting in a padded extension that kept her head upright. There was a broad smile on her lips.
Most surprising though was the large machine sitting just behind her, it had two large wheels attached to it and wide leather straps spaced around each one. They were spinning and slapping SolarGirl's ass repeatedly.
"We've had SolarGirl for just over two weeks now and her rehabilitation is coming along well."
"And what exactly is her rehabilitation?"
"Ah, well, the client has requested that she be rehabilitated into a pain slut. Of course with SolarGirl's near invulnerability that isn't really possible, there so little that could actually cause her pain. It would be more aurate to say that she's being rehabilitated into an abuse slut. By the time she leaves here, she'll be turned on by any kind of physical or verbal abuse."
