Faena
by Faibhar
A pirate's life had its share of pitfalls; a woman's perhaps even greater. It seemed as though Nature, the enemy and this strange land had all conspired to dig Rhianna's pit deeper than any, regardless of gender. Now there began this bizarre bullfight, a blood sport infamous for stacking the odds against the quarry, which, as fate would deem it, was her. The capture and rapes were sheer misery, but now this bizarre making her into some kind of bull for the pleasure of the spectators pushed her to despair.
Nature's part contributed the unexpected Atlantic storm. Disoriented, she and her shipmates were swept away from their fleet. Outnumbered, they were overwhelmed by the locals when the roiling seas finally calmed. Imprisoned on the tiny island of Graciosa, torments over the past days and nights disclosed Rhianna as the leader of the unwanted intruders. Rapes that followed left the Germanic quivering in her solitary cell, violated, starving and totally abandoned.
Tropical air flooded the rotten dark as the small door wrenched open meaning either surcease or more horrors. She brushed aside lank strands that covered her swollen eyes and reflected that the way winds were blowing, the latter was more probable than the former. Dark figures appeared in the lighted doorway, reached in and dragged her naked body out into the open air.
Preparing her, they had done many things. Water had been poured down her throat. The hooves of securely tied to the soles of her feet and palms of her hands. Elderly women had brushed coatings of a paint over the pinkish nipples and aureole. The wispy patch between her legs that had been such a draw before was shaven free of its home, now puffy and swollen from abuse. A hand gathered head hair and severed it at the base of her skull. It was then tightly braided into a single strand, attached to a dark rod and this was then hammered into Rhianna's raw and partially distended anal opening. A loose end of the fashioned "tail" brushed against the backs of the sobbing female's knees. Finally, a pair of horns was tied onto her shoulders. The sharpened ends pointed up and even though the set were from novillos, or bulls, the added weight still inclined her upper torso forward. Thus bizarrely prepared, she was pushed into the awaiting cage.
***
A riotous crowd shook Las Ventas to the very foundations of its mudejan style. The Grand Portal opened and an aged mule slowly pulled in the rickety cart carrying the rattan cage. Inside, Rhianna balanced on all fours. The sight caused an even louder uproar. Flags at either end of the arena rippled. Colorful peasants' dresses shook. Brass horns blared.
Given the small size of the space, the horns protruded through the bars of the front rattan door. They scraped as the cart began to move, giving Rhianna little movement from side to side of her head, but once inside the ring, she was clearly able to see the stacked bodies of her crew along the far wall. Near them sat a platform on top of which stood a large wrought iron X. The mangled corpses made Rhianna both sick and filled with hate. Towering above them rose intertwined rods of black metal that formed the cross. Mere shards of sun squinted through where coarse iron coiled together on the menacing edifice.
The cart stopped. Hands unlocked the front door and it was raised. From behind, she was prodded out. Rhianna fell to the sand and then carefully stood. With the hooves-platforms on her feet, she wavered taller than the around her. Warily glancing around, the place rocked. She kept her hooved hands at her sides. Before her, some yards away, arrogantly stood a matador. His traze de luces, or suit of light, sparkled with the same braggadocio. The large green cape he held outstretched beckoned.
Rhianna tried to ignore her nudity before the raucous crowd, and the tail fashioned from her own hair that hung between her legs. Her focus was on the dead of her people just beyond the cape and her eyes narrowed on the matador. She pawed at the sand in an attempt to get some traction from the unwieldy soles, and then lowered her head and charged. The spectators roared their approval as the tall began to pound across the arena.
Little did the prisoner know that this was the beginning of the first Faena. Her strength and courage would now be adjudged. Little did Rhianna care as her speed increased and head lowered. Those savvy of bullfights, or merely lustful of pulchritude wildly cheered. The nude charged into the billowing green. Surprising the man, the female abruptly pivoted. Caught unaware, the right horn deeply stabbed into the back of his shoulder. The matador sank to his knees, crimson blossoms blooming over the back of his fancy suit. Winded, the tall staggered back. Rhianna had impressed those scoring her first Faena.
A more seasoned matador was summoned as slaves ran out to Rhianna. Other slaves bearing a litter ran to assist the fallen matador. Between the two of them hurrying to the prisoner sloshed a wooden bucket of water. With a scoop, they submerged it, and then gave her drink. One of them wiped clear the prisoner's face while the other set the bucket down and helped the female to stand up straighter. Their missions accomplished, they fled the ring leaving only Rhianna standing in the middle. The fallen matador long sense carried off.
Three mounted baderillos announced the beginning of the second Faena. Their galloping cutting horses burst through the Great Portal and circled around the curious prey with the painted tits, hooves, braided tail and horns above her head. This was unlike any they had encountered before. Alongside each saddle, the riders carried brightly-colored barbed sticks. These were smaller than the usual banderillas used on bulls. Like the actual ones, however, they were designed not to kill, but rather, to harm or infuriate. With this occasion, today their targets would not merely confined to the back as was normal with a four-legged beast.
Rhianna spun in the sand as she tried to keep each and its rider in sight. The hooves still made her legs stumble, but she was getting more used to having them on. She jumped to the side as the first stick flew. It landed harmlessly in the sand. She sidestepped the next. Sweat drenched her face-she felt the rest of her slick as well. Seeing a moment, she ran head lowered at the hatless rider. Not wanting to the steed, she aimed for the human's leg, misjudged and lost her balance. The sand hit hard but she regained her footing. Her instincts now prevailed.
With the crowd, the second rider also saw his chance. Shoulder blades glistened as they arose from the ring floor. A perfect target. He threw out his first banderilla. It hit and stuck. Saluting the crowd with his freed hand, he circled his mount but kept an eye on the whose screech was heard above all as she continued to arch her back in a futile attempt to shake off the pain. The stick he had thrown now wedged between ribs in her lower back. She tried to reach behind and get it, but the hooves on her hands proved too cumbersome. Blood now streamed down the sheen of tortured female flesh. The rider lowered the brim of his sombrero and wrapped his fingers around another shaft.
Rhianna stumbled as the fire in her back exploded. Whirling around, she watched the leering rider gallop around her as he waved to the crowd. She lost sight of the first. Furiously, she whipped her horned head around. The sharpened points with its bloodied tusk sliced through the hot air. The tail swished backs of thighs. Sweat combined with paint on bulging breasts. Tanned limbs and pink flesh, normally covered but now painfully exposed, ran slick with sweat. It turned out the paint covering and ringing her nipples also contained a chipotle chili sauce. Spices mixed with the growing heat caused all flesh it came in contact with to swell as if branded.
Rhianna wiped perspiration from stinging eyes using only the inside of her forearm. It helped some, but still vision remained blurred. Somewhere, in the ring, she envisioned the bodies plus the cross that she knew was ultimately meant for her.
***
Chipolte mixed tomatoes, garlic, chili and other stuff. Rhianna only made the sting sharper by attempting to wipe the heat away with an arm across the breasts. The thought did cross her mind that there actually was very little paint applied as she had earlier assumed. Most of the had been the hot mix. Already, Rhianna's own body betrayed her, allowing deeper penetration as her pores opened. Swelling of the reddened mammaries increased as the heat further deepened.
The naval princess jumped away from another thrown banderilla but awkwardly tripped. This time, the white bitch would not be so lucky as before the horsemen all thought as another of them aimed for an exposed thigh and let fly the barbed stick. Blood spurted from just beneath the left buttock. The shaft remained imbedded.
There was little she could do, other than cry out and dodge away. It was bad enough running naked with a plug up your butt and burning tits. Now she had two spears of fire stuck in her backside. Rhianna fell to one knee. In that moment, she glanced up into the packed stands and saw that there were some that actually were cheering for her. Tired though she was, support from the audience and her own personal sense of never being a quitter drove her on. Quickly regaining her footing, she ran from the first horseman.
Another scream was heard above the roar of the stadium. The third rider was waiting and launched his missile. This one's barb buried itself into the right shoulder blade, bringing the dripping nude to her knees. Three orange-wrapped sticks stuck out at odd angles as muscled bare arms pressed forward. Hooves tied to palms dug furrows in the sand. Points from the horns landed on either side.
Alert for any deception, the second rider rapidly fired another banderilla at the upturned ass. The prisoner bellowed as it sank into her flesh. Arching her stabbed back, she unsuccessfully tried wiggling her hips to shake the stick free. The action brought the crowd to its feet. Not wishing to be outdone by his colleague, the first rider brought his horse alongside, leaned down from his saddle and shoved the 2 1/2-foot lance in his hands toward hanging tit, pushing it forward until the shaft sunk deeply into the engorged flesh.
Rhianna nearly fell over, but remained on her hands and knees. Ignoring the searing pains proved impossible. Sweat rained from her lowered head and formed a muddy puddle in the sand between her hands. Looking down and backward, she saw more puddles formed under her nearly defeated body. The slightest movement brought sheer agony from the piercing barbs. Only when she heard her name being repeatedly called did she raise her wearied head. When she did, she saw that a new matador stood in front of her, and that the riders had departed. Faena 2 was over and now Faena 3 was about to begin. Her body wanted so much to lie on its side, but she refused the temptation and remained on her hands and knees, the now darkened tail hanging limply between her thighs, the right leg lengthened behind the other.
At his repeated entreaty, she finally amassed enough strength to move her knees and arms toward the figure with the cape. Agonizingly, she crawled ever closer.
White handkerchiefs waved from the gallery. Never had they witnessed such a lustful spectacle. Chants began and were seconded. They cried as if with one voice: The beautiful pirate was to get the cross-not that her life should be spared, but instead, that she should die upon the iron figure towering above the wooden platform.
Rhianna reached the cape. Almost pleadingly, she looked up at its owner. This matador looked different than the first: Not only was his fancy suit a different color, but as he looked down at her he seemed wiser and more experienced. Prepared to die, she looked for the sharp saber in his hand and was surprised when she saw none.. The new instead bent down, caressed her cheek and then gripped the shaft protruding from her swinging and yanked.
Fatty tissue and bloody gore ripped out as the barb pulled free. Rhianna did then fall to her side. Assistants to the matador rushed out and jerked out the other banderillas leaving the female sprawled flat on the sand. More blood flowed from the fallen. They pulled off the horns and untied the hooves from her feet and palms. Two of them each lifted up an ankle and they pulled. A dark wide wake left its swath in the ring as the condemned was dragged closer to the platform. One of them reached down and pulled out the soggy tail fashioned from human hair. It had been pulled underneath the female during the dragging.
Arms trailing behind, the massive caught each step as she was dragged up to the platform stage. A crimson trail stained the gray wood. Those pulling the female unceremoniously let free the ankles they were pulling and her lower legs limply fell to the floor.
***
Unencumbered by the hooves heels and rack of horns, they pulled Rhianna to her bare feet. She still stood at least a head above those who had dragged her up to the top of the wooden platform. The great iron sculpture behind radiated heat from the day's sun. Without resistance, she stood as a rope was passed under her reddened breasts, then tightly cinched from behind.
From the opposite side of the ring, a figure grew closer. It was that of a stocky, bare-chested man. As he grew closer, Rhianna could see that the wore a ribbed helmet made of some metal. A plume of feathers lay across its crest. Sweaty chest hairs came closer into view. Leather worked a lattice pattern across the bare top. The signaled and a crude derrick was wheeled out. Rhianna watched it as she stood until it disappeared from sight behind her.
The cinched rope suddenly tightened around her ribs. Jeers from the crowd rang out. Impulsively, she looked down. Reddened ballooned. Almost immediately, two shining nipples looked back up at her. Rhianna twisted, but the rope continued to pull. Her body started to lift. Her head jerked up, but all she saw was the still sky above. Looking back down, her now looked bigger and their reddish color was darkening.
The crowd screamed its delight as the executioner ordered the rope leading from the derrick to lift the tall higher still. The squirming hips and bulging electrified them. Between the long legs, the single braid wildly swished. This "bull" was at last to be crucified. Higher up she was lifted. Sweat streamed down the writhing contours along with new rivers of blood from the many puncture wounds. The dark cavern of the female's navel, topped with the tiny dome of flesh many had noticed before, now stretched to a narrow slit from its home in the sunken belly. They applauded her every cry.
He needed the help of another to grip an ankle and press its sole onto one leg of the iron cross. Heedless of the burn such action might cause the condemned, he quickly wrapped the foot secure with a short length of chain and did the same with the other leg. Allowing himself the liberty of looking up, he thinly smiled at the protruding ribs and purpled above before ascending a short ladder with a block of wood, hammer and nail.
Once in position, the executioner extended the condemned's left arm outwards and upwards until it was pressed flat onto the heated iron bars that interwove as part of the sculpture. A short length of rope was used to secure the wrist. With one hand the executioner placed the wood on the other side and pressed the nail firmly into the upturned wrist. The other heavy arm drove the mallet down onto the nail head. Positioned correctly, nail passed through flesh, a in the wrapped iron, and then into the wooden block, effectively locking the arm in place. Just to be sure, the mallet crashed and crashed upon the nail.
Ecstatically, hysteria ensued. The crucifixion reverberated tensions of all sorts. To the white body, the black cross had become less a backdrop and now more an engine of torture as the nail was further pounded in. Gleaming muscles, tendons and veins pumped in stark relief. The entire structure shook. Bright blood spurted out and ran down the executioner's positioned arms. Flexed knees straightened and the enemy leader's neck stretched ever higher as her chin raised to the sky.
He moved to the right side, and then repeated the same sequence with the other arm. Before climbing down, the executioner cut free all ropes. As he did, the purpled that had so grown in dimension lowered slightly and regained some of their natural color. Standing on the platform, the heavy fellow then nailed both feet to the X.
Rhianna tearfully squinted and tried to relax the contortions made by her face muscles but found that she could only grimace as she peeked. Her limbs contracted and the verge of panic presented itself as she now felt herself pinned. Hanging from nails in her wrists, she fought to keep her head up.
Breathing was difficult as inhaling came in short gasps, and exhaling was impossible. Gritting her teeth, she made ready to use her legs again and pull herself up. The try failed. It proved too demanding, and yet it was either that or asphyxiate. She tried again and this time gasped quickly before her knees bent once more and she slumped lower. Sweat ran. Already exhaustion consumed. Rhianna made ready for the effort once more. Clenching her jaw and then screaming in a voice that sounded altogether foreign, she repeated the process. Regardless of sapped strength, the will to breathe to live became supreme.
Resounding cheers met every thrust upward by the crucified. From down at his perspective on the sand, the executioner looked up at the figure nailed to the cross on the platform. The flexing thighs now parted enough to show the female's inner sex. The sight inspired. Next to his sandal lay one of the bloodied banderilla earlier removed from her back. He bent down and grabbed it and stepped back up onto the platform. The pink and black shone as an easy target. Turning back to the crowd, he waved the barbed stick high above his head and then turning back to face the nude, took the shaft and plunged it up between the legs.
Rhianna screeched as it entered her. No longer did lack of strength in her legs concern as her entire being reached skyward. Arms pulled her higher as feet stood upon the nails piercing them. She felt the barb being twisted inside her. When it pulled out, her body sank.
The bloody stick yanked free. He reached in and yanked out the hanging hair pulling the plug that held it out. Crimson rivers flowed down the muscular legs. He jammed the stick back into her, twisted and again pulled it out. More blood flowed. The small crown now shown with a necklace of liquid rubies.High up the iron cross, the gleaming globes thrust out invitingly. Two more banderillas were snatched up from the sand.
One more the executioner took particular aim.

The captain encountered noticeable chop in the seas as the wooden sailing vessel headed towards what appeared to be a small bay on the tiny island in the Atlantic. Beyond, a village or small town sprawled. Visible near its center arose a plume that further darkened the waning light. There had to be a connection to their leader and her crew, he thought, and willed his ship to sail faster through the bucking waves.
La Ventas was not a large bullring but making the circuit around the perimeter seemed endless to Rhianna. Siesta time was spent in the stands for many of the onlookers and now that sunset was almost upon them, a renewed excitement buzzed amongst the awakening crowd. They cheered as the oxen team turned the platform with the black cross and the white female crucified to it toward the center of the arena. It stopped and the were released from their harnesses to be taken back to the barn. More horns blared. From the Grand Portal rode colorfully garbed picaderos. The three horsemen each carried burning torches that lit up the twilight and trailed showers of sparks as they galloped around the ring. Slaves stuffed kindling under the platform as the riders paraded.
A landing by sea on strange soil was precarious any time of the day, but when reduced visibility was added to the many pitfalls, all and women aboard the ship knew that their chances for success were greatly reduced. Regardless, the chance to rescue their own had all keenly prepared for whatever they might face. Armor bumped armor as the pitching and rolling continued. Fingers tightly gripped spears; swords were sharpened again and again. All concentration was focused on getting ashore.
The stadium reacted as one voice and shouted. One of the riders leaned down from his saddle and set the burning flame on the torch he carried to the brush stuffed beneath the wooden platform. Sparks flew in many directions. The brush ignited. One orange flame appeared, and then another licked up between the wooden slats atop which the corpses had been tossed.
Rhianna was forced to look down. From the darkened bodies near her bloodied left foot she saw the smoke, and then the flame that almost blinded. The sight caused panic. Exhausted knees stiffened. Her body lifted up a little. The naked torso twisted as more smoke climbed. It choked. She coughed. Spittle flew. Her lungs seared.
Another of the riders bent down with his blazing torch on the other side and ignited kindling under that end of the platform while the third stopped his horse, dismounted and held his torch under the front center of the platform. Three small fires quickly grew.
Spectators stood again and wildly cheered the activity. Fascination captivated them as the fires quickly grew. Soon, the fires melded into one blaze. The wooden platform started to smoke and then burn. High on the X cross, the maiden rocked in fright, shaking her splendid body as well as the banderillas stuck from it. One of the dead limbs hung over the platform, just over where flames licked. It too ignited.
Darkness was falling out at sea and visibility was poor as the pirate's ship approached the bay. As soon as they could, and women from the vessel jumped over the side and waded to shore, their helmets and chest-plates wetly gleaming in the surf. On the beach, the intruders met with little resistance from the small band of locals. Fighting ensued, but their superior numbers quickly overtook the defenders. Grouping together, they animatedly pointed toward the center of the town. That seemed to be where all of the action was. The captain led the crew through the narrow streets at double time.
Rhianna cried out. Billowing smoke gagged. Toes that could not flee began to feel hot fingers lancing their tips as they desperately curled. She wretchedly coughed. Her entire being from so much that had happened, but this newest threat took precedence. Burning alive was impossible to embrace. Skin began to crinkle. Blisters erupted then cracked as fissures formed. Any semblance of composure became a forgotten memory. The nails held fast.
Stomping feet pounded the stadium stands. Wildness ignited with every corpse that sprang to life in flame. The crucified began to be burned upon a pyre of her own. First one of the lower legs blackened as more smoke and flames reached it. Scorching fire flickered its ascent. It lapped at the wooden stick, quickly exploding into flames its paper and cloth wrapping. Another body on the platform flamed and burned the next living leg.. Riotous fans pointed to the second banderilla, also now aflame and the shriveling to which it was forever joined. Still the crucified's head could be seen to shake from side to side. A balmy breeze from the sea blew much of the smoke from the flaming pyre. It also further stoked the raging flames. Passions of the populace were well fired.
The Great Portal doors swung open and there entered a group of more foreigners. Those cheering from the stands stood silent for a moment. All appeared stunned. Only the crackling of the burning bodies, and platform along with Rhianna's continuing cries from the conflagration were heard in the muted moment.
Horns blasted again. The people looked on in awe. Surrounding the shocked foreigners were Graciosa's finest, weapons at the ready. The mass capture seemed to confirm that La Ventas would once more play host to bizarre blood sports, though surely, none as grand as the mock bull fight they had witnessed this day. For that, they could thank the they called Rhianna.
