My military training was almost over and we were allowed to have family visit us. I didn't want my Mother and Grandmother to come down just yet because graduation wasn't for another two weeks. I had been hearing some disturbing news about my Sister so I thought she could use the time off. Toni and I didn't grow up together but I was very proud of my Sister and we had developed a deep emotional bond. Although we were raised by different parents, I always loved her bubbly personality and sharp wit. She was the life of any party and could have you eating out of her hands in no time. She seemed to have the perfect mix of being hard to handle when necessary and a delicate flower when you least expected it. A rare combination was being book smart while being street savvy. While I avoided education, she took that path and seemed to excel at it. She graduated high school and was sent out upon an unsuspecting world. She had received a scholarship and a bright future was just up the road.
Anyone who knew Toni knew that she was strong willed and doubted that she could be swayed from her chosen career path of becoming a surgeon. Only the family let their guard down by not keeping close tabs on her. She had just turned eighteen when she moved into the college dorm and began living amongst students much older than her. Another reason to be proud of Toni was that she was a virgin and prided herself on not getting involved in relationships that would or could become a distraction to her desired goals. We always talked about it and she seemed so determined not to let that happen.
Prior to leaving home, Toni informed me that, "The only male I trust is you." "If I need any kind of advice to include sexual, I will definitely pick up the phone."
She left for school and everything seemed to be great. She wanted for nothing. Between her scholarship and the family, whatever she asked for was on its way immediately after being requested. For the first few weeks, all verbal reports from her were glowing. A few months into the semester, her roommate called me. I became privy to disturbing stories about hanging out with the wrong crowd, failing grades, using drugs and misappropriating the money that was being sent to Toni. I expressed my deepest appreciation and contacted Toni at my next opportunity. Initially, she denied the stories but the proof was in the details. Finally, she broke down and told me some of the truth while exhibiting disappointment in her behavior and concern as her future achievements were slowly slipping away.
The most disturbing story she confessed to be falling in love with a guy five years older than her. Even after discovering his blatant deception, she still insisted the guy was cute, charming and unaware that she had just turned eighteen. Toni reluctantly informed me that she lost her virginity to him. They were both under the influence of alcohol. It was very quick and under the most unromantic of conditions (on the floor of her room that was strewn with dirty clothes). I was so emotionally crushed for both of us. I had begged her to discuss those situations with me as they developed. I would then try to assess them and give her my best advice. She was very apologetic and uttered something about hindsight.
Another story came rolling out of her mouth about taking a shower. This guy came into her room unannounced and was teasing her while she was in the shower. She was embarrassed and didn't like it but didn't say anything because she thought he was just playing around. He pulled her out of the shower and started "playing" rough. He then threw her down onto the bed and had anal sex with her. She was in pain but never said no or reported it because that was her "boyfriend". When I heard that, all I can say is that this dick head was lucky he was across the country from me otherwise, consequences be damned!
Toni then stated, "I felt so ridiculous when I walked in on my roommate having sex with my boyfriend." "Late that night, I just walked the halls with my head down and tears streaming down my face." "I felt like such an idiot, waiting for them to finish and him to leave the room."
She felt so stupid, ashamed and betrayed. She was naΓ―ve about how a real relationship should feel. It was after that event that she was informed that her boyfriend was having sex with as many girls as he could charm. She then realized I probably had obtained my information from her roommate. That was just a tactic to get her out of the way. Vague details about drug use and failing the entire first semester worrying about what he was doing didn't help matters. The second semester had begun and her grades were on the same track. Luckily, I had the means of flying her to my location for spring break. I wanted us to hold each other and start the healing process. In retrospect, I was naΓ―ve too.
All the arrangements were completed and she was on her way. I was so happy to get her out of that environment if only for a few days. I had reserved a nice room for her close to the base and at the edge of town. When she arrived we were able to spend an enjoyable day together. I could immediately see that this was not the same Toni I knew. She seemed more reckless, self loathing and on self destruct. Her shirt was open almost to the point of fully revealing her braless breasts. I asked her repeatedly to close a few buttons but she refused. Much to my dismay, I later found that she wasn't wearing any panties when I observed a male staring up her skirt. I was still convinced that a few days together would get her back on track. It was day two and I was on my way to pick up Toni and enjoy a few activities within the nearby town.
I called Toni and she stated, "I'm not feeling well." "I'm going to spend the evening sleeping after I take some medication."
I wished her well and told her that I would be in the area. I would check on her either by phone or in person.
I stopped by a billiards parlor a few blocks from the hotel. I was there about an hour having a great time when I met up with a few of the guys from the base. We started chatting and they began telling me about some of the other guys hooking up with one of the local "Pros" in the nearby hotel. As they were leaving, some guys were running a "train" on her. I defined that as a group of guys taking turns screwing the hell of some willing and often anonymous female.
One of the guys stated, "I wasn't going to hang around waiting to screw some girl in front of a group of guys." "After all who knows what diseases she has?"
The conversation continued for a few more minutes and suddenly something made me feel like they were talking about Toni. I asked what hotel and room they were coming from. The hotel was the same. They didn't know the room but it was on the second floor near the front. It sounded like the same room as Toni. A myriad of emotions rushed through my mind and I just took off running. In the parking lot of the hotel, I picked up a big stick. I wasn't thinking clearly so I had no idea what I was going to do with it. When I arrived at the room, I pulled out my key card. I just stood there listening for a second and heard several voices and laughter.
I rammed the key card in the door and busted in like a maniac waving this large stick. The first sight I had as I entered the room is burned into my memory for the rest of my life. I saw my sweet Sister, naked and sandwiched between two naked degenerates. Two other degenerates were standing there in their underwear watching and drinking beer. I started yelling at all of them and swinging the stick. I didn't know anything about them other than they were probably fellow trainees. Before I could wantonly strike anyone, everyone was jumping around trying to protect themselves and grabbing for their clothes. As trainees, none of us could afford to get into trouble. I decided to give them a matter of seconds to grab their things and get out without giving them the opportunity of getting dressed. Beer cans were flying, clothes were flailing about with four half dressed guys heading out the door.
