Chapter 1

SPRING FORKS 1978

Father Timothy O'Leary, Father Tim as he liked to be called, was sitting in his confessional booth this early Saturday morning. He had just been transferred to this little out of the way village a couple of weeks earlier from a large city in another State. The Bishop had been adamant that the transfer was to take place as quickly as possible. He had spent a very long and arduous hour in the Bishop's office. He had never ever heard a man of the cloth use such loud, vulgar language. Bottom line was that Father Tim's vice could not be tolerated, in such an important church, as it might hinder weekly collections. He was sent as far away and into as insignificant posting as possible.

He was kicking himself, in the ass, for not taking better precautions. He had ended up getting caught with the delicious 12 yr old Mary McCarthy in a very delicate and indefensible position. He was fucking the young girl in the church storage room! It wasn't the first time for them being together like that. Little Mary loved the attention from her priest. It was her loud moans that attracted old Mrs. Osmond who had dropped in for prayers.

Gawd that little sex kitten was so good. He had been fucking her for over a month before they were caught. Mary almost scratched Mrs. Osmond's eyes out for spoiling her fun! His mind was far away and not paying much attention to the person in the other booth until her heard the word, 'dickie'.

"Excuse me, little one. I didn't quite catch that. Please repeat it."

The soft young female voice spoke up again with a nervous tremor in her speech.

"Father, I said that I was feeling so good when Tommy made me feel his dickie until the sky changed."

"Why were you touching Tommy's dickie and how old is he?"

"Father, didn't you hear anything I said? Tommy Connor is 12 and the cutest boy in school. He took me over to the hollow right after school and he was kissing me. He took it out and had me move my hand up and down on it."

"You say it was feeling good until the sky changed?"

"Yes Father, I can't explain it. The sky started to turn dark and a quick cool breeze started up. It frightened me and I stopped even though Tommy begged me to continue."

I'm sure he did, Father Tim though to himself. What young boy, in his right mind, wouldn't want to be jacked-off? He also remembered the quick frontal system rolling down from the Great Lakes that had caused the quick turn in the weather.

"I can explain it my dear. It was gawd! He saw what you were doing and didn't approve. It's a wonder you were not struck down by lightning. You have sinned without being properly instructed in things you know nothing about."

"Oh Father, I didn't mean to sin. Please help me. Tell me what I need to know. I don't want to be struck down" The fear was evident in her little voice.

"You will go wait over in the chair by my office door until I am finish. Keep repeating Hail Mary's until I come for you."

"Yes Father, I will be waiting for you. Thank you Father."

The priest smiled as he heard the young girl leave and his cock was already starting to twitch.

Chapter 2

He heard several more confessions, waited a few more minutes and it was clear that there was no one else left. He got out of the booth and headed for his office. Father Tim was 50 yrs old, just 5' 4" and not a hair on his body! A childhood disease had left him that way and he well remembered the nonstop teasing at school while growing up.

He approached the office door to see a young girl sitting there reciting her Hail Mary's over and over with eyes closed. This gave Father Tim a chance to look at her. Very light, long hair tied together with a clip. The girl had a rosy face and a budding bust. She was dressed in white as many young girls did when coming to church. There were black shoes on her feet with almost knee high white sock. Her legs looked lovely.

He made a noise in his throat and her eyes popped open to show him they were brown. She looked a combination of sad and frightened. Father Tim pointed to his door and shooed her in without speaking. She went in and he pointed for her to stand in front of a small sofa where he parked himself. He looked up and down the pretty girl and she stood there with her little hands clasped in front of her.

"Well, speak up what is your name and age, girl!" His voice was sharp.

"I'm ahh,. I'm Betty Fraser, Father, and I am 10."

"Have you ever done anything like this with boys before?"

"Oh, no Father! This was the very first time. Me mum always said that boys were dangerous and to stay away. I don't know why I did it; I really don't and now I'm in big trouble as I've done sinned." She burst out crying.

The priest let her cry for a couple of minutes and then reached out and took her hand.

"I should call your dear mum right now. I'm sure she will be devastated to know her young daughter is a sinner. She will not be able to hold her head up in public again!"

The girl's crying increased with his harsh statement.

He waited again as he had done many times before in similar situations. He was a predator and knew how to take down his target.

"There is a way to resolve all these things and give you and your dear mum a chance at respect."

The girl quickly stopped and looked into his eyes.

"Oh please Father, whatever you can do, please do. I'll do whatever you say."

"Indeed you will, little Betty, indeed you will!"

Chapter 3

"The very first thing, I am sorry to say, but most necessary in this terrible sinful case, is punishment. You understand the need for punishment little girl?"

"Yes Father, I do." She said with trembling lips.

"I should use that stick over there," pointing to a long heavy stick in the corner.

He knew darn well if he used that he would break her little bones. Betty didn't know and trembled with absolute fear.

"I don't know why I should be easy on a girl who has committed such a sin, but I've decided to use my hand."

"Thank you Father, thank you."

He took her hand and pulled her closer to the sofa.

"You will pull that dress up past your waist, pull down your panties and get across my legs. Quickly now girl. It's that way or the stick!"

Betty immediately pulled her dress up above her sweet hips and pulled her little panties down below her knees. He guided her over his knees and rubbed his hands over her lovely butt. Betty trembled at his touch. She was so embarrassed being treated like she was only 4 or 5 yrs old.

Whap!

Whap!

Whap!

Betty jumped with each hard smack and a tear trickled down her cheek.

Whap!

Whap!

Whap!

His hand came down on her other cheek. She was quietly sobbing as his smacks were quite hard. He reached down and pulled her panties right off her feet and spread her legs a little wider. Her beautiful, bald pussy was right there under her redden cheeks.

Whap!

Whap!

Whap!

He pause after every 3 or 4 hard smacks and rubbed his hand over her burning hot little ass. His finger dipped a little lower to run along the girl's slowly moistening slit. He had never met a girl who didn't moisten up from a good spanking. He spent the next 15 minutes spanking and stopping to rub the girl. She was writhing on his lap and her small pussy was getting wetter by the minute. He let his hand slap her exposed cunt a few times which elicited moans from the ten yr old.

He stopped spanking and wet a finger in her own juices and pushed the finger quickly up her little ass. Betty wanted to complain as she couldn't see what this had to do with punishment. She shut her mouth as she didn't want to get in any more trouble. Secretly, she had been enjoying what the Father's hands had been doing to her body especially the private area between her legs.

Father Tim could feel the preteen pushing slightly against his finger and he grinned. He used his other hand to rub up and down her slit while his thumb kept pressure on her clit.

It only took a few minutes and the girl was bucking and moaning.  Something was happening deep within her and she didn't know how to describe it."

"Father, Father, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I'm exploding inside! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

He rubbed her for a few more seconds and then just let her lay there catching her breath.

"You did very good little one. The demon was coming out but we will have more, much more work to do to save you my child."

Betty dressed and stood there. She was still tingling from whatever it was that happened. She actually hadn't minded the punishment but she certainly wasn't going to tell Father Tim that she felt good.

"You will come back here tomorrow afternoon right after school. Come like you are dressed today child, and we will help you on the road to salvation. These are very private sessions so not a word to anyone."

"I'll be here promptly tomorrow Father and I won't breathe a word."

She left and Father Tim rubbed his hands in glee. Screw you Bishop, I'll be fucking that lovely, preteen morsel in another 24 hours he though to himself!

Chapter 4

Father Tim went over to the small Catholic run school the next afternoon. He called Brother Eric aside and said that he needed to talk in private to Tommy Connor. He waited in the small office until the boy showed up. Tommy was a slim built but good looking boy with light brown hair and an infectious smile. Father Tim thought that the boy would be considered a juicy morsel by many members of the cloth, probably including Brother Eric, who swung that way.

"You wanted to see me Father?"

"I must certainly do. I have very credible information on some sinful activities involving yourself and young girls!"

Father Tim let that statement hang in the air as he watched the preteen boy turn white and start to fidget.

"Are you going to dare challenge my statement?" He thundered.

Tommy was trembling and wringing his hands.

"No Father. I would never challenge you."

"Good answer, my son. There may be some hope for you yet. I have to decide whether to tell your parents, the legal authorities or handle this myself."

Tommy was shuffling from foot to foot as if he was going to piss himself!

"Tommy, I will handle this myself IF you tell me all the ones you have been with, their ages and what you did together. If not, I will be forced to let the authorities take you in."

"Father, oh, Father, what will happen to the girls?"

"They will be properly counseled by me and their parents have no need to know about this."

Tommy looked at the floor and then the information flowed like a spring!

"Father, the first one was Fannie Gullage. She has dark brown hair and is 10 years old. I felt her up and she held on to my dickie."

"It's not your dickie Tommy; you are almost a young man. Talk like one. It's your cock!"

The use of the forbidden word surprised Tommy but he continued.

"I was with Betty Fraser and got her to hold my cock until something happened and she ran away. She is lovely Father and 10."

Father Tim gave no indication of already having that knowledge as he didn't want Tommy to know how he had found out about him in the first place. He nodded for the boy to continue.

"Tracy Malloy is a 9 year old red head. She and I were together several times. I was able to play with her without any of her clothes. She even held me in her mouth but wouldn't do anything more."

"Vera Reilly is a brown haired 10 yr old. I also had her naked and stuck my finger up her bum. She jacked me off until I came Father. She was the best!"

"How often did the two of you do that?"

"We were together probably 6-7 times but we only did that twice!"

"The oldest was Polly George, she being 11. I tried hard to let me put my cock up her butt as she has such a beautiful one. She let me play with her naked and would hold my cock but that was it. We were together three times. That's all of them Father, honest."

"You are sure that all of this information, that I have copied down is true?" Tommy nodded. "Then sign this paper." Tommy did. "Tommy, you will say 50 Hail Mary's every night for the next week and I had better see you in church for every mass. If, and I say, IF you get involved with any of these girls again, or any new ones, you are to tell me immediately."

"You mean Father, that if I do it again, I wouldn't be in trouble?"

"You will be in trouble if you don't tell me and I find out about it. I will find out! However, us men do need our fun, don't we?" He slapped a very shocked Tommy on the back.

Chapter 5

"I had a long, hard think last night." He smiled at the play on words as he addressed the lovely little Betty who had run over right after school.

Betty was dressed again in a summery type dress with black shoes. She stood demurely in front of the Father who was again sitting on the sofa.

"I must determine how much of your body the demon possesses and how deep he goes. It's not an easy task. A doctor cannot do it and only certain elderly men of the cloth have the spiritual power to do this. Even fewer are possessed with the blessed equipment to eradicate the devil!"

"Oh, Father, do you really think that the devil is inside me? I only touched Tommy for a minute or two."

"Unfortunately, the devil is very sneaky, always has been. Good religious people, like us, have to be constantly on guard and you let yours down. The thing is child; will you do whatever is necessary to be cleansed?"

"Oh yes, Father, whatever it takes. Whatever you tell me to do. I want to be pure again!"

"We will start off with another punishment. Do what you did yesterday and spread across my legs."

Betty did not hesitate to lift up her skirt and pull her little panties right off. She then laid her lovely little body across the elderly Father's legs. She had been secretly hoping that she would have to do this again as she had left the day before with such a pleasant tingle in her vagina and bum!

Father Tim caressed those bum cheeks for several minutes admiring the taunt youthful skin. Her ass pucker and delightful slit were there for him to see and touch.

Whap!

Whap!

Whap!

Whap!

He smacked her several times, played with her rosebud and slit then gave her several more wallops. He repeated this routine for almost 20 minutes. She had not cried even though her ass was red hot. She was wiggling and moaning on his legs. He grinned as he recognized the signs of a young female in heat.

He had her stand up and then ordered her to take off her clothes. Again, there was no hesitation until she was naked and attempted to cover herself. He pulled her hands away and gazed upon this preteen beauty. She had lovely budding breasts which were big enough to warrant an 'A'  cup bra. The nipples were quite hard from the stimulation she had just received. He patted the sofa and told her to lie down with her legs open.

Chapter 6

The priest started at the top of her head and worked his way down her slender body to her toes. He seemed to spend a lot of time at her small breasts, squeezing and fondling the half orange sized mounds. He flicked and nipped her hard little nipples a number of time. When he came to her vagina, the girl had her eyes closed as he moved a finger up and down her moistened slit for several minutes. This was, interspersed with rubs on her clit and insertions, twice, of a finger into her pussy entrance. If she had her eyes open, she would have seen the evil grin on his face when he confirmed that the delicious looking preteen was a virgin!

Father Tim had her turn over and he moved quickly to her fire engine red bottom. He commanded her to put her hands on her behind and spread her cheeks wide. Her rosebud was now winking at him. He reached under her and drew some of the moisture from her pussy onto a couple of fingers. He pushed one inside her very tender ass and moved it in an out while the 10 yr old moaned but didn't complain. He slowly added the other finger causing her to moan even more and wiggle her little butt.

In truth, Betty loved all this naughty action. It was like when she was holding Tommy's dickie, she had felt good. Now she was feeling a whole lot more. She couldn't possibly believe that this was sinful. She loved having the priest's fingers up her hot bum. She squirmed some more on his fingers. Father Tim stretched and stretched the girl's young ass for several minutes, grinning that she was responding so well. She will do everything I order and she is going to love it, he thought.

He stopped suddenly and Betty was left moaning into her arms as she felt great disappointment at the retreat of the fingers from her hole. Father Tim cleared his throat and told the preteen to sit up.

"Young Betty, it pains me to say that I have found the devil to reside in your body especially in your private parts. How deep he is embedded and how deep I shall have to go, to get him out, is yet to be determined."

The priest shook his head as if with great sadness.

Poor little Betty sat there downcast with her hands clasped in her lap.

"Father, what shall I do? How are you ever going to be able to help me? Me mum always said that the devil is very powerful. I'm only 10! My life is ruined!" She burst out crying.

Father Tim let her go like that until he sat down next to her and put an arm around her tiny frame.

"You will need treatments, many treatments in various forms. You and I can beat this Betty, together." He said in the kindest and most sincere voice he could muster.

"Oh please Father, yes as soon as you can. I will do everything possible. Please guide me Father."

"Indeed my child, we will start right this very minute. I believe the easiest and quickest way to begin is an oral injection."

He squeezed the little girl and smiled.

Chapter 7

He had her get off the sofa and place herself on her knees, on the floor, between his legs.

"You must follow all directions carefully, my child, or it will not have full value. These are time honored special treatments and must be done several times to get the full effect. Do you understand?"

Betty nodded.

Father Tim slowly pulled his robe up until his lower body, sans underwear, was exposed. His wrinkly cock was at half mast and the 10 yr old just stared at it.

"I know that it will seem strange that in order to cure you, you will have to touch the part of a man's body that infected you with the cursed devil! However, I am a man of the cloth and the devil cannot harm me or one that touches me in such a manner. Take it in your little hand as you did Tommy's."

Betty placed her hand on his cock and just held it. Even in its only half hard state, it was still bigger than the one she had held before. She could feel the warmth of his shaft and movement as it got bigger in her hand. She looked up to his eyes in amazement.

"See how he is rising to the occasion. He must be stiff and at full length to do you any good. Here, let me show you how to move your hand up and down."

He placed his larger hand over her tiny one and showed her the proper motions then let her go on her own. She watched his cock respond to her ministrations. A slow smile spread over her face as she seemed to thrill in the fact that she was making his cock grow bigger!

He leaned back on the sofa and studied the young girl. She was a delight to see with her budding beauty, her innocence and trust. He would corrupt her in every way possible for his own enjoyment as he had with so many over the years.

"I told you that this was to be an oral injection. That means in your mouth. There is a special cream inside that, when it flows out and down your throat, it will gradually thwart the devil. You must lick it all over and then put it in your mouth to force the special medicine to come out. When it does, you must swallow every single drop. Don't lose any!"

Betty nodded her little head dumbly and poked out her tongue to take a very small lick of his hard shaft. She looked up at his eyes and he nodded to give her encouragement. She took a bigger lick and then another. The thing, as she thought of it, was very warm and pleasant to her tongue. It didn't have a bad taste, so she started to lick in earnest. The old priest put his hand on her head as if blessing her. In his mind, he was saying, 'suck you little slut, suck me'!

Betty was now enjoying this just as she had the spankings and his invasion of her little bum with his big fingers. He was very hard and something seemed to be leaking from the very tip. She licked at it and it pulled away like a string as she licked her lips. She licked what remained and it tasted okay. Another little blob appeared.

"Put it in your mouth as far as you can. Keep licking at what is inside. Those little blobs were part of the medicine you need. It didn't taste yucky like some medicine, did it?"

Betty shook her head no and bent to her new task, opening her mouth wide and sucking his cock to the top of her small throat. Father Tim instructed her on how to bob her head up and down on the shaft, never taking it out, while sucking up the 'medicine' that came out of the tip and swallowing it.

Betty jumped to the task with an eagerness that the priest had seen with many young girls before. He knew that once you got past the spanking stage, with all the fondling, then full nudity, they were like putty in his experienced hands.

Betty was doing well and she had the old priest moaning and giving her blessings for being such a good and obedient child.

She sucked his tool bringing it almost out to her lips so she had room to lick all over the cockhead until she took him deeper again. Father Tim was encouraged that the preteen was picking up much faster than some older girls that he had seduced. He liked them mainly between 9 to 12 yrs old. They were pretty easy to manage and their budding sexuality also made them easier to seduce. He had several older girls but preferred the younger ones.

He noticed that one of her hands had dropped down between her legs.

"My child, rub yourself down there like I did to you. It will make you very moist and get your internal juices going. That will help the special medicine flow throw your body when it comes out and it soon will so be ready to swallow."

He didn't normally cum this quick, but the whole situation with the Bishop and the quick transfer had left him with blue balls! He took hold of her ears and pulled her a little deeper on his cock.

She was working him as hard as she could and found her own little button. Such wonderful feelings were hitting her down there.

Suddenly, she could feel his cock expand and the first blast of some type of liquid hit her throat and she had to swallow quickly and often as much more flowed out of his cock.

"Yes my child, you must swallow. Gooooood girl, take that Satan. We will drive you from this young body! Drink your medicine, every drop dear child. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

He had stopped spurting and Betty was diligently licking his cock that was inside her mouth. She felt it start to soften quickly. When she pulled her mouth away, she inspected his prick for any sign of her 'medicine'. She felt a little drop at the corner of her mouth and swiped it away with her tongue. She looked up at the priest who was just beaming at her.

"How do you feel inside, my child, can you feel the medicine working?"

"I feel very warm and nice. I have lots of moisture down there, you know, between my legs. Hopefully it will help. I sure feel good down there!" She said with great enthusiasm.

"Well, my child, it always good to give a double strike to the devil especially at the start of treatment. We have a bit more time this afternoon before you need to get home. Are you prepared to do it again?"

The young girl smiled and said, "I will gladly take you in my mouth again Father."

"Good Betty, but that is only part of this necessary treatment. We will put run to that devil yet."

He smiled at her as he pulled her head back to his now shrunken cock!

Chapter 8

Betty was sucking and licking with gusto, trying to get the priest hard again, so she could coax her medicine from his shaft. She was puzzled as to his statement that this was only part of the second treatment.

"Remember, child, to play down there again to get those feelings and juices flowing."

She nodded her head with his cock in her mouth and slid her hand down her sexy little body. She loved the tingles her fingers produced. She accidently hit her clit and a shiver rolled though her body. She had forgotten how the priest had gotten her so wet when he had played with her. She kept her finger on that spot and rubbed furiously.

Father Tim let her spend a few more minutes getting him as hard as a rock once again. He lifted a cloth, on a side table, and picked up a tube he had placed there earlier. He placed his hand on Betty's forehead and had her stop sucking his cock. She looked at him in bewilderment.

He told her to get up on the sofa with her knees on the edge and learn forward with her arms and head resting on the sofa's back. He quickly divested himself of his robes. He looked kind of funny standing there naked with his hairless body and stiff cock. He quickly smeared lube over his hardon and they applied some to her little rosebud. He had worked her ass before, now he wanted plenty of lube there. He knew that one of the keys to success for continued encounters was to try and provide pleasure for his little sluts.

"The devil is deep in your bum. I could easily feel him with my fingers. I am going to help root him out and spray my medicine in your bowels. Play with yourself down there and things will go very well. Are you ready?"

Betty nodded her head.

Father Tim put his cock to her asshole and pushed. Little Betty winced but had her fingers frantically rubbing her clit to get those great feelings back. The priest pushed again and his cockhead popped in right away. He stayed still for a couple of minutes. He noticed the finger action between her legs and smiled. This one was going to be easily trained and would be a frequent visitor for follow up treatments.

He didn't sense any more tensing so he made small strokes gaining more territory each time until he was in to the hilt. She had a very tight ass!

"Betty, do you feel it very hot in your back passage my child?"

"Oh yes Father, it's like I'm burning up in there!"

"See my child, the devil has his heat burning inside you. He is mad that I have gone inside you to battle him. My medicine will help to sooth that heat."

"Oh bless you Father for doing this for me. I'm so grateful."

The priest was now moving in and out of her tight bung hole at a more rapid pace. He knew he could last longer this time because of the lovely, first time blowjob she had given him. Nicely done, two cherries in one afternoon, he laughed to himself.

Betty could feel the priest's hard prick pounding into her little shit chute. She had been startled at first when he started to penetrate back there. She knew that grown men took women in the front. She had never heard anything about getting it back there. She felt like she was indeed burning up. She wasn't sure how he was going to cool things down as his thing seemed to be creating even more heat!

The 10 yr old had not stopped rubbing her clit and now the priest was also squeezing her small boobies. All kinds of wonderful stranger feeling were invading all parts of her young body. She could tell that something very big was about to happen!

"Father, Father! I'm exploding between my legs! Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Father, what is happening! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Father, is it the devil Father? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, oooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhh my goodness!"

"It's okay my child. You are helping to win the battle. Those were special feelings and it shows that the medicine you swallowed and the special rubbing you were doing is driving the devil insane. Wasn't it good to help drive out the devil, my child?"

"Oh, goodness Father. It was very special. It was wonderful!"

"Does that mean you will want to swallow many more portions of the special medicine?"

"Yes Father, as many times as you can let me. I don't want you to run out but I would gladly do it everyday also what you are doing with my bum, as often as needed!"

Gotcha, he thought to himself knowing that the lovely 10 yr old would be at his beck and call for his future pleasure.

The priest was now rushing his strokes. The girl had cum and it was his turn. He rammed her hard going right to the hilt on every in stroke. His balls were swelling and his cock expanding.

"Feel it child, the medicine is flowing into your bum!"

"Yes Father, but it's so hot, I thought it was going to soothe me."

"It will child, it takes several minutes. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, wonderful child, yesssssss you have worked hard. Ahhhhhhhhhhh we are a good team fighting that horrible Satan!"

Father Tim left his cock inside her tight ass and smoothed his hands all over her back.

She still had mini explosions going off between her legs. He finally pulled out and put the cloth on the table under her ass.

"Hold that to your bum and run into the washroom over there, clean yourself and come back here. There will be some medicine leak out but that can't be helped."

He took out a wipe and cleaned his cock and put his robes back on. Betty did as instructed and came back 5 minutes later.

"I don't think I lost much. I let it drip into my hand and then I licked it up. You said before not to waste any. I want that devil gone!"

The priest almost laughed out loud when she described taking the dripping cum from her ass and licking it up! Priceless he thought!

The girl was still naked and Father Tim didn't want to miss this opportunity. He still had a small locked box containing three picture albums. He had several pictures of every girl he had conquered over the years. He took a Polaroid camera from a desk drawer and motioned Betty back to the sofa.

"I need to take pictures of you to study, my child. Sometimes I see signs that the devil has left on your lovely body and it helps me to make even more effective plans to battle the monster."

He had her pose sitting with her cute bum right on the edge of the sofa, her slender legs spread as wide as she could. Her slit and pussy hole were well exposed. You could almost see that pink thin membrane that was her cherry. The only cherry left, he mused, and she will soon lose that.

Father Tim had her turn over and back on to him just as when he had fucked that sweet ass. He made sure that she peered over her shoulder and smiled for the camera as she held her ass cheeks open for two more pictures.

Betty was feeling a perverse pleasure from such explicit exposure in front of the kindly priest. Actually, she was almost happy that the devil had invaded her body! The feelings the priest had elicited from his 'cure' were fantastic!

"You did very well today Betty. I will determine when you need your next treatment and summon you."

Betty looked very disappointed. "You don't want me here tomorrow Father?"

"No my child. We have made a great start. You must also realize, my child, I am but one person and there are many more of my flock that need attention for various problems."

"Of course Father, I must not be selfish."

"Betty, you are doing fine and we will be together soon. In the meantime, tonight and every other night, you can play with your special spot. Just make sure not to make too much noise."

"Oh Father, thank you. Thank you so much!" She impulsively hugged him. The priest kissed the top of the preteen's head. She left a few minutes later.

Chapter 9

He spotted her the next afternoon walking away from school.

"You are little Polly George, are you not?"

The young brown haired girl stopped, nodded and said, "Yes, I am Father Tim."

"My child, I'm afraid you are in grave danger. A spirit has come to me with a dire warning about you. Do not say anything of what I have said to a soul or I will not be able to help you."

Polly's jaw was almost on the ground as she started to tremble at the priest's dire words.

"What have I done Father? Why will I be in so much trouble? Please, Father, tell me." She pleaded as she crossed herself.

"Polly, first you must come to church, Saturday morning just before confessions are finished. Make sure that you are the last in the booth. Dress nicely as you are going to church, my child. A dress is most important. Do you understand those instructions?"

She nodded and he further admonished. "Follow everything that I say and you will be protected from all evil. Do not say a word to anyone. No more questions. I must get back to prayer. It's a prayer for you my child, that I may be given the strength to save you."

Poor Polly stood there rooted to the spot as the priest turned his back to her and walked away with a huge grin on his face.
