The Curse

There are several forces in nature that we can never understand completely. We call them supernatural and even brush them off as mere superstition. One such power was said to exist in the caves of Surajgadh. Unaware of the existence of such a power, 15-year-old Tanya came to visit her grandmother during her summer vacations. Tanya's parents lived in London and were busy with their work. As they couldn't accompany her, Tanya had to come alone. Tanya's Grandma lived alone in their ancestral bungalow, situated near the woods of the Satara village of Surajgadh.

One night, after having dinner Tanya sat with her grandmother to have a chat. She cajoled her grandma to tell a story. Grandma started telling the story of a devil who was cursed and turned into a stone statue. That statue was situated in one of the caves in the jungle behind their bungalow. The statue is believed to come alive on a full moon night once in 12 years by midnight. People of Sataara believe that tonight it was going to happen.

"It's already 10 and time for you to go to bed," Grandma told Tanya.

Tanya got up, kissed her good night, and went to her room. But she couldn't sleep. She kept tossing and turning on her bed thinking of the devil in the caves.

"'Is it true or a mere story?' Tanya thought.

She closed her eyes and tried to sleep but she couldn't. Finally, she decided to find the truth out. She pulled a jacket over her sleeveless T-shirt, grabbed a torch, and tip-toed out of her room. Grandma was already asleep after switching off the lights of the bungalow. Tanya slipped out of the house from the back door and ran into the woods.

Tanya walked carefully over the weeds and rocks of the jungle. The moon was hidden behind the clouds and the night was coal black. Suddenly, she heard the roar of engines of a vehicle from behind. She was startled and turned to see a jeep approaching. There were 4 men sitting in the jeep. All of them were drunk and looked like rouges. As their eyes fell on the beautiful damsel wandering alone in the desolate woods, they stopped the jeep. Tanya's heart raced and she started running.

"Get her!" One of the orders is, "don't let her escape."

Two men came running towards her. Tanya slipped and fell down. But she got up quickly and started running again. But she could hardly go a few steps ahead when she was grabbed from behind by the waist. The man lifted her from the ground and turned towards the jeep. Tanya screamed and swayed her hands and legs to break free. Soon the other man came running towards them. The man who was holding Tanya closed her mouth with his enormous hand and winked at his companion. He understood his pal's gesture and pulled out a towel and a bottle from his pocket. He poured some liquid from the bottle on the towel and pressed it to Tanya's face. While the other man held her tightly in his grip.

A vulnerable feeling crept up in her mind but Tanya kept struggling. The towel pressed to their face was emanating a sweet but intoxicating smell that made her drowsy. As minutes passed by, the drug started taking a toll on the helpless girl. Her struggles dwindled as Tanya started losing consciousness. The moonlight peeping out of the clouds appeared hazy to her as the darkness of night took over her vision. Finally, Tanya gave up her struggles as drugs stupified her.

The man took off the towel from her face a few minutes after she had fainted. He then took her jacket off and caressed her breasts feeling the. the resilience of her young flesh.

"She seems to be very young," he grinned.

"In her early teens, I guess." the other man said as he drew the lips of the oblivious damsel in a beastly kiss that seemed to last forever.

Soon the other two men who were sitting in the jeep also joined.

"Let's take her to the caves before she wakes up," one of the men said as his greedy eyes slipped down the gracious curves of the adolescent girl. "Then she is all ours for the whole night."

All of the men cheered and carried the unconscious girl to a cave in the wood.

She woke up as she felt a chill creep up her body. A hazy Tanya moaned as a severe headache jolted her. She somehow opened her drooping eyes and looked around. She saw the stone statue that appeared to be that of a devil as her Grandma has described. But the very next moment, she let out a petrified scream as she saw the four men sitting around her, enjoying their drinks. They had lit some electric lamps in the cave. In the silvery light of the lamps, Tanya cognized that they had laid her down on the floor of the cave with nothing to shield her modesty from their lusty eyes.

Tanya held her hands to her chest to cover up her nudity and drew her legs closer. The men rushed to her and pulled her hands and feet apart. One of them switched on the camera and held it close to the naked body of Tanya lying helplessly on the floor. Her hands were tightly pinned to the floor on either side of her head so that nothing masked her luscious blossom as the man took her shots on his camera. The fourth man came closer to her and took off his clothes. Tanya had goosebumps by the mere sight of his dirty eyes ogling her naked, svelte frame. He jumped over her, groped her breasts, and sucked her nipples like a famished beast. Tanya screamed and cried but the men were merciless rascals.

The man who was holding her legs parted them widely. He assaulted her long, sensuous legs by kissing and digging his teeth into her juicy flesh. Tanya fought back and jerked her legs but his grip became even tighter. When he reached right in the middle of her parted thighs, he opened his mouth drooling with saliva, and put his tongue out. He licked her private folds and the maddening sensation brought by rubbing his rough tongue against her soft folds sent shock waves over her. Tanya screamed out loudly as the torture was about to knock her off her mind. The man who was holding her hands put his hand on her face to prevent her from screaming. Tanya somehow bore a few more minutes of this inhumane torture and then pass out again. A smile of satisfaction lit up the men's face as they can now feast upon her body without any resistance from her part. They leisurely took turns to rape the hapless girl as Tanya remained unconscious.

It was midnight by the time they had satisfied their lust. A thunderbolt lit up the sky and the cave rocked as if shook by an earthquake. An absolutely traumatized Tanya opened her eyes to see the petrified faces of her assailants. Behind them, she saw something that was even more horrendous. The stone statue had turned into a living devil. The devil dig his mighty teeth into the flesh of the men and drank their blood. They all fell dead on the ground. Shocked by the gruesome sight Tanya passed out again. The next morning, she woke up on her bed with no memory of who brought her back from the jungle.
