In the middle of a packed sand arena stood an affable looking man in his mid 30s. Wearing jeans that were neither tight or baggy. Distressed from time worn whilst working, not by a designer's plan. A tidy blue shirt was tucked into said jeans. Clipped to this shirt was one of those wireless microphones useful when talking to a crowd but needing the freedom to move around.
He smiled to his audience.
"Thank you all for coming to my seminar. Tonight I am going to show you how ponyplay can be really effective in the initial training stages of your slaves. It doesn't have to be something you want to continue, though I do hope once you try it you might want to continue. Its a great way to give your slaves some cardio and strength training all while reinforcing their complete obedience to you"
The men in the stands watched with mild interest as a slave was led to the middle of the 20m square arena. She was naked save for a harness belt around her hips, a collar and wrist and ankle straps. Her hands were covered in thin yet strong fingerless pouches. She was crying and visibly shaking. Their focus was still on the man as they had all seen scared slaves before.
"This is a fresh caught slave. I have not worked with her in anyway since she was grabbed two nights ago. She has been kept in a stall like cell. She has been wearing an e collar that shocks if she tries to speak or make a noise. She has been fed and watered and had minimal interactions with my staff. Any handling we have done has been done with kindness but also with firmness. A fresh caught slave is understandably scared and possibly angry. That doesn't excuse bad behaviour but it does explain it. We aim to make bad behaviour difficult and good behaviour easy. My goal here tonight is to show you how I start the training that avoids many of the common conflicts that arise when breaking a wild slave."
Walking over to the slave he took the leash from his assistant who backed away, and with a nod the assistant left.
"In the outside world society tells women that they should look pleasing for men but that they shouldn't want to be touched. If you like sex and want to be touched it makes you a 'slut', which they view as a bad thing"
He chuckled along with his audience over that silly behaviour of the outside world.
"Now this slave has some effective ear plugs in. I don't normally do this when I am working with a new slave on my own, however I don't want her listening to my spiel here.
"Speaking of things I wouldn't normally do..."
He stood there for a second looking at the slave allowing the audience to shift their attention to her. She seemed frozen by the watching the men in the stands. Her shoulder length auburn hair had been pulled back in a high pony tail. Her breasts were round and full. Her hips had a smooth curve to them and her butt was high and round. Her belly was soft and also a little round. She was pretty despite carrying an extra 15 pounds. The audience couldn't see her nervous goose bumps or the light sprinkling of freckles that covered her arms and shoulders, but her trainer could and he noted her nervousness. He reached out to caress the milky globe of her left breast. The slave reacted as if his fingers shocked her and shot backwards away from him. She hit the end of the leash, he had been holding fairly short anticipating her reaction, and stumbled would have fallen if he hadn't steadied her.

Hot tears slid down her face and she curled her toes into the sand wishing she could run. He had touched her, her breast felt hot as if his fingers had seared her. Her heart beat fiercely with the desire to run. Run far away from here. Away from this man holding the leash, away from the staring eyes watching from the gloom of the bleachers. Run home, not that she knew which direction or how far that was, so she could hide in her bed, under her soft comforter and tell herself this was all a horrible horrible nightmare.
She had heard that there was a new society forming. And underground society where men enslaved women for their pleasure. There had been a disturbing growing number of missing women reported. The only thing the women had in common was that they were between twenty and thirty years of age and healthy. She should have known she was at risk. At 24 years of age she was a prime target.
Oh god she just wanted to go home, she would have given anything to be anywhere other than here. More tears fell and she couldn't even wipe them away. Her hands were balled up in those dammed pouches and even if they weren't, the bands around her wrists were attached by straps to the harness around her waist. She wanted to pull the plugs from her ears so she could make out what he was saying. She wanted to cry out, to plead for, well she wasn't sure what would move any of these men. But it was a moot point as she wouldn't risk that shock again even if she did know what to say.
Never had she felt more helpless or hopeless.

"As you can see, quite a large reaction compared to the same touch on a shoulder. Of course you can use force to overcome this reaction. But that doesn't teach obedience and you end up with a huge fight where there is a chance the slave might, for a while, avoid learning by shutting down. I know some men enjoy that sort of training for itself, and if that is the case please continue, " he smiled again at his audience. "However my belief is that a slave should learn complete submission as swiftly and with the least amount of confrontation as possible. It is not the fault of the newly caught slave that she has been brainwashed by the outside world and does not know her place. It is our duty to make the conversion as humanely as possible and not draw out the breaking.
