Most people are sleeping, working, or playing at night. But Lifty and Shifty had other ideas. While other Tree Friends were getting ready for bed or playing video games, the twins were attempting to rob a bank. They had spent a while getting ready for it, both of them wearing black sweaters and Lifty wore a black beanie with holes on the top for his ears while Shifty stuck with his signature fedora. Once they were dressed and ready, they grabbed their bags to fill with valuable items and got in their van to head to the bank. Once they got there, they decided against going in through the front because they didn’t want to attract attention to themselves, so they started to look for a different way in. They found an open vent and decided to try to crawl through it. Lifty tried to squeeze and got his torso in, but his waist almost got stuck. "Fuck. I can't fit," said Lifty, crawling out. "That's because your butt's too big," said Shifty, smirking. "Shut up, my butt is normal size." Lifty snapped. "No way, dude. That's too big to be 'normal size." said Shifty, slapping Lifty's rear end. "Ow, quit it," said Lifty, rubbing his rump. They went around the back and found a door. "Well, what are you waiting for? Open it," said Shifty. "What? No, you open it," said Lifty. "You open it, dude," said Shifty. "I don't want to," Lifty growled. Shifty rolled his eyes. "You are such a fucking pussy, you know that?" He said, walking up to the door. Lifty stuck his tongue out at his older brother. "It's not gonna open." He mumbled to himself. But to his surprise, it did. "Hell yeah. Now let's rob these fuckers blind" yelled Lifty. "Shh, keep your fucking voice down, dumb-ass." snapped Shifty. Lifty felt upset but ignored it. Once they were inside, they looked around for the vault, but they didn't see it. But they did see a room filled with gold bars. They snuck over and admired them. "Holy shit, this must be worth so much," whispered Lifty. "Yeah. Holy shit, dude, we're gonna be rich. But we need to grab the loot and GTFO first." whispered Shifty. Lifty was confused at first. "GTFO? Oh, get the fuck out, right?" He whispered. "No shit. Just start filling the bags." Shifty whispered as he began to fill his bag. Lifty began filling him as well. Once they were about halfway full, they heard someone say, "Who left this door open?". They began to panic and tried to sneakily leave. After a few tense minutes, they made it out without being seen. But they were far from safe, as Splendid had spotted them while scanning the town before bed. He zoomed down to them and confronted them. "What do you two think you're doing?" He demanded. "Nothing. None of your business," said Shifty. "What is that behind you?" Splendid asked, pointing to the bags. "As I said, it's none of your fucking business, Splendid." snarled Shifty, baring his teeth. "Watch the attitude and the language, young man. Lifty?" said Splendid. "I have nothing to say to you, jerk-off." snapped Lifty. Splendid looked over and saw the bank, and put two and two together. "You two robbed the bank again, didn't you?" He demanded. The twins tried to deny it, but Splendid wasn’t stupid. He grabbed them by their tails and flew off with them under his arms. Soon they arrived at Splendid’s house. He pulled them inside by their ears to make sure they couldn’t run away. He brought them to a room with a chair and table next to it with a fur-brush lying on it, and two desks. After they went inside, Splendid closed the door behind them. “Now, let’s discuss your behavior, shall we?” said Splendid. ”What are you going to do to us?” asked Shifty, feeling a little nervous. “Something I should’ve done a long time ago. I’m going to give you two a spanking.” Splendid replied. Lifty and Shifty smirked. “Oh no, please don’t. That would be oh-so-bad, hehe.” Shifty said, sarcastically as LIfty giggled along. “I don’t know how I could ever handle such a thing. If only we had been good before, hehehe.” Lifty joked. “I’m glad you think this is funny. I bet you won’t be laughing when I tan your hides.” Splendid snapped. Lifty and Shifty stop laughing as they realized that he was being serious. “ W-wait, you’re not really gonna…” Shifty stuttered. “You bet your soon-to-be-sore backside I really am.” Splendid said, walking over to the chair. “Shifty, come here. You’re going first.” “What, why me?” Shifty asked, shaking. “Because you’re older therefore you’re supposed to be the more responsible one. Now get your sorry butt over here NOW, mister. And Lifty, you get YOUR sorry butt over to the corner and put your nose in it.” Splendid demanded. Lifty did what he was told to, and hurried over to the corner. Shifty, realizing that there was no other way out of this, walked over to Splendid. Splendid grabbed the raccoon’s wrist and pulled him over his knee. “Please, Splendid, I’m sorry.” Shifty pleaded. “Now, keep your paws and your tail out of the way and keep your feet still, do you understand?” Splendid asked. “Y-yes, sir” Shifty whimpered. “Good,” Splendid raised his paw and brought it down on the raccoon’s backside. “OW!!! Please, I’m sorry,” Shifty cried. Splendid raised his paw and brought it down again. “OWW!!! That really hurts,” Shifty cried. “It’s supposed to hurt, buddy. And besides, if you two listened to me, I wouldn’t be doing this.” Splendid lectured them as he once again brought his paw down on Shifty’s backside, causing him to cry out again. “AHH!!!” Splendid continued to smack Shifty’s tail-end as it began to turn red. “OW OW OW!!! PLEASE STOP!!! I’M SORRY, I’M SO SORRY, I’LL BE GOOD I PROMISE!!!” Shifty pleaded as tears and snot ran down his face. “PLEASE STOP, IT FUCKING HURTS!!!” “Watch your mouth, young man. And quit squirming,” Splendid scolded and continued the assault on Shifty’s backside. Lifty stood in the corner, trying not to cry. He was scared because he knew that he was next, and he wasn’t looking forward to it at all. Shifty put his paw over his aching rear end. “P-please stop, I-I’m so sorry. I’ll be good, I swear.” He whimpered. “I suggest you move your paw immediately.” Splendid demanded. “N-no, please. It fucking hurts so bad…” Shifty whimpered. “I’m going to count to three and if you don’t move your paw, I’m going to use the fur-brush. One…” “No, don’t. I’ll be a good boy, I promise.” Shifty whined. “Two…” “Please…” “Three…” “Okay, fine. P-please just k-keep using your p-paw. The fur-brush really hurts…” Shifty whined, taking his paw off his backside. “Good. I’m glad you’re finally cooperating with me. And I know that I already reached three, but since you moved your paw on your own, I’ll let it slide. However, you’ve proven you can’t follow simple instructions.” Splendid said, pinning Shifty’s arm and tail to his back and pinning his legs down with his own. Splendid raised his paw and continued spanking the poor sobbing raccoon. He was in no way gentle as he slapped Shifty’s bottom without an ounce of mercy. Soon, he stopped spanking Shifty and rubbed the sobbing raccoon’s back for a few seconds..” Alright buddy, hop up.” He said, helping him off his lap. Shifty stood up and tried hard to resist the urge to rub his sore bottom. “Stay here, I need to go check something.” Splendid said, leaving the room. As soon as he was gone, Lifty looked over at Shifty, who was using his tail to hold the back of his shirt up as he used his paws to rub his stinging rear end. Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow…” He whimpered, as he ran his fingers through his butt fur. “Hey, are you okay, Shifty?” Lifty whispered. “Shut up. Leave me alone.” Shifty growled. “I just want to know if you’re alright.” Lifty whispered. “NO, I AM NOT FUCKING ALRIGHT, YOU FUCKING DUMBASS!!! HOW THE FUCK CAN I BE ALRIGHT AFTER GETTING BEATEN LIKE THAT!?! MY FUCKING ASS HURTS SO GODDAMN BAD!!!” Shifty shouted. Lifty quickly put his nose back in the corner as he heard heavy footsteps approaching. “SHIFTY!!! I thought I told you to watch your mouth, mister. And do you want to explain why you’re yelling?” Splendid shouted. Shifty went from angry to scared in a split second. “I-I-I didn’t mean to… I was just upset…” Shifty whined quietly. “Lifty, were you talking to him?” Splendid demanded. “Well, yes, but I was just asking him if he was okay. I didn’t mean to provoke him, I swear.” Lifty said, shaking. “Well, you’ll find out soon because, as soon as I’m finished with him, you’ll be feeling what he’s feeling.” Splendid said, and turned to Shifty. “Now, because you were using filthy language, we need to take care of that as well.” He said, grabbing Shifty’s paw and pulling him out of the room. Lifty snuck over to the door and tried to listen to what was happening. “Ow, ow, ow. It hurts. It hurts so bad. *sniff* W-why did you hit me so hard?” Shifty whined. Splendid didn’t say anything. Then, Lifty heard running water. “What *sniff*… What are you doing?” Shifty asked. “Taking care of that filthy mouth of yours.” Splendid snapped. Then he heard Shifty whimpering and crying before making gurgling noises. “What is he doing?” Lifty thought. “Sit still, you’re only making this worse for yourself.” Splendid yelled. Then the water stopped and Lifty could hear Shifty crying and coughing. “There, not so filthy now, huh?” Splendid snapped. Lifty realized that Splendid must’ve been washing Shifty’s mouth with soap. He then heard footsteps approaching the room so he quietly bolted back to the corner. “Lifty!! Were you moving around?” Splendid growled. “N-no, sir. I-I stayed in the corner as you told me to do.” Lifty lied. Splendid dragged Shifty by his ear over to one of the desks. “Sit down,” He ordered, pushing Shifty onto the stool. “Ahh, Ahh hah hah…” Shifty whimpered as the texture of the stool felt like hot metal being pressed against his sore rear end. He tried squirming to ease the pain, but that made it worse. “Quit whining and squirming.” Splendid shouted, putting a pencil and a piece of paper on the desk. “Now, here’s what’s going to happen. You are going to write an essay explaining what you did wrong and how it was wrong as well as an apology.” Splendid explained. “But I don’t want to.” Shifty whined. “DO AS I SAID, OR I SWEAR, I WILL SPANK YOU UNTIL YOU CANNOT STAND!!!” Splendid shouted. “O-okay, I’ll write this stupid thing, p-please stop yelling at me.” Shifty sobbed. “As soon as I’m finished with Lifty, I’ll be checking your progress, and you’d better have written something, or else you’ll be going through a round with the fur-brush, is that understood?” Shifty nodded, as tears ran down his face. “Now, Lifty. It’s your turn.” Splendid said, grabbing Lifty’s wrist. Lifty panicked and tried to defend himself. “OWW!!” Splendid yelled. Lifty opened his eyes and saw a large bite mark on Splendid’s arm. He immediately realized that he had bitten Splendid. “Oh my god, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to b-” “I don’t wanna hear it. You sit here until I get back.” Splendid shouted and stomped out of the room. Lifty felt so bad about what he did and knew he was going to be spanked even harder than Shifty was. He stood there, trying to stay calm, until Splendid returned with a bandage on his arm, threw something on the table, grabbed Lifty’s wrist, and pulled him over his knee before he could see what it was. “I’m sorry, Splendid. I won’t do that again.” He pleaded. “You were already getting a spanking for stealing from the bank again, but this little stunt of yours just made this a whole lot worse for yourself.” Splendid growled. Before Lifty could say another word, Splendid raised his paw high into the air and brought it down on Lifty’s tail-end. “OWW!!! I said I was sorry.” Lifty said. Splendid continued to spank Lifty with his paw. But it didn’t last too long, as Splendid paused for a second. Lifty wiped the tears off his face and looked behind him to see what was happening. “Oh no, no no no no no NO!! NOO!!” He began to cry as he saw Splendid pick up the fur-brush. “Quiet. You’re not getting off so easy after the stunt you pulled.” Splendid said before raising the brush and slamming it into Lifty’s light red rear. “OWWW!!!” He screamed. Splendid kept the spanking going with each blow turning Lifty’s backside a darker shade of red. Just as Shifty did before him, Lifty threw his paw over his rear. “Lifty, move your paw.” Splendid demanded. “FUCK YOU!!!” Lifty snapped. Splendid grabbed his arms and pinned them to his back and held his legs down with his own, just like with Shifty, and began spanking Lifty’s backside even harder. After a few minutes, Splendid stopped and put the brush down. Lifty thought Splendid was grabbing something else to blister his bottom with, so he braced himself for it. But Splendid started to rub the other sobbing raccoon’s back for a moment. “Hop up, buddy.” He said, helping Lifty off his lap. Lifty sobbed really hard as his rear almost felt numb, but he could still feel every bit of stinging in his backside. Are y-you *hic* g-go-gonna p-p-put s-soap in m-my mouth?” Lifty asked, struggling to breathe as his backside burned. “That depends, did you use any filthy language?” Splendid asked, crossing his arms with an annoyed look on his face. Lifty then remembered what he said when Splendid told him to move his paws. “Oh nooo,” He whimpered. “Yep. C’mon.” Splendid said, dragging Lifty by his wrist. While they were gone, Shifty put his pencil down to take a quick break and rub his sore bottom. Splendid turned on the water, grabbed the soap and grabbed the back of Lifty’s neck, bent him over so his mouth was under the running water, and scrubbed his tongue with the soap. Lifty tried to wiggle out of it, but Splendid kept him in a firm grip and when Lifty kept squirming to break free, Splendid gave him a firm swat on his now darkish-red backside to get him to behave, causing him to swallow some of it, and continued scrubbing the naughty raccoon’s mouth. After 30 seconds, Splendid let him go and turned the water off. But before he could put the soap down, Lifty spit the soap out into the sink before Splendid told him to. Splendid scolded Lifty for being disobedient, and while Lifty tried to apologize, saying it was an accident, Splendid just bent him over the sink and gave him 15 more firm swats to his backside and washed his mouth again. When he was done, he waited to make sure Lifty kept the soap in his mouth, and Lifty almost threw up but managed to control himself. He held it in his mouth for ten seconds, and Splendid told him to spit it out. Afterward, Splendid dragged the sobbing raccoon back to the room by his ear and sat him down on the stool at the other desk, put down a paper and pencil, and gave him the same instructions he gave Shifty. Lifty winced and loudly whimpered at the feeling of the wooden stool scraping against his tender bottom. Splendid walked over to Shifty and looked at his paper. “Hmm,” Splendid walked over to a shelf, grabbed a book, and sat down in the chair. “You two have 30 minutes to write your essays. And if I catch you slacking off or rubbing your behinds… you already know what I’m going to do. And no talking. If you need something, raise your paw,” Splendid said, setting a timer. “Start writing.” He ordered. The boys spent a long time writing their essays and making sure they looked good, so they didn’t get in trouble. After 13 minutes, Shifty raised his paw. “Yes, Shifty?” said Splendid, looking up from his book. “I- *sniff* I’m f-finished with my essay, sir.” He whimpered. Splendid put his book down, and went to check Shifty’s work. He spent a minute reading it and checking for mistakes. But he put it down and said, “Well done, buddy. I’m proud of you.” while rubbing Shifty’s back. “Lifty, how far along are you?” He asked. “I-I only wrote a f-few sentences, sir.” He whimpered. “Alright, let me know when you’re finished.” Splendid said and went back to his book. Lifty kept writing and would check for errors every so often. After 10 minutes, Lifty raised his paw. “Yes, Lifty? Are you finished with your essay?” said Splendid. “Y-yes, sir.” Lifty whimpered. Splendid went to check his paper. He scanned over it and caught a few mistakes. “Here, correct these mistakes, and you’re good to go,” said Splendid. Lifty’s ears folded down sadly. “B-But I kept checking for mistakes. How did I…” He whined, before just erasing the mistakes and fixing them. “I-is that b-better?” He asked, handing his paper to Splendid. Splendid scanned over it again, and confirmed that it was good enough. “Good job, boys. I'm proud of both of you.” He said. “Come here.” They cautiously got up from their stools, their rears still red and sore, and walked over to Splendid. Splendid held his arms out, and they hugged him. “I’m sorry for being so rough with you two. Are you alright? Was I too hard on you?” He asked. “A little bit, but we’re okay,” Shifty said, happy that this was finally over. “Well, my butt still really hurts,” Lifty said. “Well, why don’t you boys get ready for bed?.” He said, taking them to his guest bedroom. He had a guest bedroom for when Lifty and Shifty needed or wanted to spend the night at his house. They got in their beds and laid down on their stomachs and Splendid brought them some ice packs. He placed one on Shifty’s rear. “Ahh! Ow, ow.” Shifty whimpered, squeezing his pillow. “Hey, it’s okay, buddy. Just breathe, okay?” Splendid said in a soft and gentle voice. Shifty’s eyes began to tear up, but Splendid provided him with comfort until he calmed down. “Thank you, Splendid. *sniff* We’re really sorry for everything.” Shifty whimpered. “So am I,” Splendid replied, tucking him in and kissing his forehead. He then took the other one to Lifty. “Oh no, this is gonna hurt,” He whimpered softly. Splendid slowly place it on his rear. “MMHH!!” He screamed into his pillow. Splendid began to comfort him as well until he calmed down too. He kissed his forehead, tucked him in, and said goodnight to them both. He once again apologized for being so hard on them and turned the light off. The twins had trouble falling asleep with the ice packs on their bruised backsides, but eventually drifted off. An hour later, after the boys fell asleep, Splendid went into the room and carefully removed the ice packs so the boys didn’t get freezer burn.
THE END
