Just in Time

It was another lazy day in a Wanhold - an old border-town. One day a two young junior officers from a two different countries met in a local pub. An elven girl named Caralda and an orcish girl named Wolffang. After a few pints they started arguing. Word after word and the self-proud girls decided to check each other skills in a duel. The duels were strictly forbidden in Wanhold, so they went to a clock tower, where nobody could interrupt them.

Caralda's swordplay skills were much better, then Wolffang's, so the elven girl was pretty sure, that she'll defeat her orcish opponent quite quickly. She was making her step back and back, until they reach the platform edge. A wrong move, and both of the duelists fell down.

Caralda and Wolffang fell over a girder. A few minutes they spend, trying to throw each other down. Suddenly they heard a loud bell ringing. And right after they heard the first ring they both felt a sharp pain right in their buttocks. A part of a mechanism, which made the clock chime, was right after the duelists and it's long sticks were stroking their naughty butts right like a birch-rods. Caralda and Wolffang screamed and bawled in pain, but could do nothing to save their bottoms from such a painful laceration.

Suddenly a dwarf warrior looked in. He heard some strange noise and decided to check it.

"Captain! We have a two naughty girls here!" he shouted "Should I take them out?"

The clock rang twelve time, and then the suffering was over.

"No!" was the answer "Their bawling go along with the bells very well! I think we should let them out only after the midnight!"
