"That one looks like she will show some sport, eh Alexander. Let's see how far she gets."

As the two men watched from the sheltering smoke enveloping the looted shell of what had been the town's largest house, a young woman, clad in fashionably tight jeans and an expensive- and torn- T-shirt, bolted from the front door of the adjoining house into the street like the hunted animal she was. Her lithe, leggy figure seemed to fly deerlike across the cobblestones on her Nike running shoes She crossed the cobblestone street and had almost reached the beckoning alley when she made the mistake of breaking stride to look back. That was when the swiftest of her pursuers caught her, throwing away his automatic rifle to make a diving tackle. In seconds, three other uniformed men had reached the struggling pair. One of these grabbed her arms, holding them above her head, as the oldest man, their Sergeant, used his large knife to cut away the already torn T-shirt, slicing through the now soiled white of the shirt to expose her white lace bra. The bra disappeared next with a flick of his knife. Her Levi's required a longer struggle before the knife had them in shreds. The young woman, a pretty, short haired brunette of perhaps twenty, was left naked, brutally stripped of her clothing except for her Nikes. Nude, she displayed a slim, well formed body just reaching womanhood, her skin pale and translucent like the finest porcelain. The terrified girl was roughly forced onto her back as the men prepared to rape her under the terse directions of their Sergeant. One man stood by her head, his booted feet pinning her slender arms to the cold cobblestones as two of his companions grabbed her feet and forced open her long, shapely legs to display her shaven vagina. The trapped girl screamed frantically, her small breasts shaking enticingly as she struggled madly to free an arm or a leg. A constant "NO!" streamed out of her mouth as if she thought that words would protect her any more than the possession of the right clothes had protected her. Few words were exchanged between the men as they pinned the girl for the coming rape; they worked with an economy of words and motion born of frequent practice. There in the street, held spread eagle on the cold, muddy cobblestones, the trembling girl- silent now- waited to be raped. Above her the bearded, grinning Sergeant took his time shedding his weapon and web gear; he enjoyed the sight of the woman's fear and meant to prolong this moment. Despite the muttered urgings of his men to get on with it so they could have their turn, he lingered to play with the terrified girl. Opening his fly, he exposed his erect cock to the shaking, crying girl, telling her that soon she would find out what it felt like to be fucked by a real man...by a Serb.

"GOD DAMN IT ZLATKO, YOU'RE SO SLOW IT WOULD SHAME THE DEVIL! FUCK THE BITCH! BUT KEEP HER TO TAKE BACK TO THE HOTEL.

The Sergeant looked up in surprise at the words. It took his eyes a second to find the source of the voice in the smoke coming from the burning houses. Then he saw the tall, bearded figure clad in a pressed camouflage uniform standing with his smaller bodyguard by the corner of the burning building. As always, the sight of the man's cruel smile sent a jolt of fear through the Sergeant's usually dead emotions.

"ARKAN!"

"Fuck her, Zlatko! Do the little Moslem piglet. NOW!"

The Sergeant obeyed. He ordered his men to spread her legs more, painfully stretching them until her long, slim legs were almost parallel with her hips. Then, turning his fear of Arkan into a rage directed at the helpless girl, he fell upon her, forcing his way into her, impaling her on his erect cock. Once he had penetrated inside her warm form, he supported himself upon his arms and concentrated all his weight behind his cock's thrusts, pounding into the captive girl as she screamed and cried beneath him. In a moment he could feel her open up, surrendering to his intimate invasion. He sank deeper into her, forgetting Arkan, forgetting even his cheering men, as he savored the tight warmth of her vagina, slick with her warm blood. The bearded Sergeant locked eyes with the girl- stared down into her wide open, pain ridden eyes- as he rode her. He wanted to see her face as he emptied himself into her, planted a Serb's seed in her belly. It took only seconds for him to reach that point; as he shot into her womb, the Sergeant stared into her open anguished eyes and laughed into her horrified face. Then he mockingly kissed her tear streaked cheek and rolled off her trembling nude body.

The man the Sergeant had called Arkan watched the rape with obvious pleasure. He was the leader of this uniformed gang of which the four rapists were a small part. His name was Zelijko Aleksico, though he was better known by his nom de guerre, Arkan. Tall, heavy set, and with a full, black beard, he was the perfect image of the mountain hajduk, the traditional folk hero bandit from the centuries long wars with the hated Turkish occupier. But he was no simple mountain man Born a scion of the old Communist elite of Yugoslav, he had been what was then called an "economic criminal", a business suited blackmarketer, successful enough to be able to buy tolerance under the old Communist regime until he had killed a policeman in a fit of anger. Then, calling himself a political refugee, Arkan had spent the next 3 years in the Serb emigrant communities of western Europe and the United States where he was still wanted for questioning about a rape-murder. Now, calling himself a Defender of Serbia, Arkan was the terror of northern Bosnia. With the break-up of Yugoslavia, he had returned home to find his special talents in demand. Under the patronage of the secret police chief in Belgrade, he had been encouraged to form a private army. Using his criminal connections, Arkan had recruited members of the Serbian underworld to play an important role in Belgrade's war plan. In the ethnic war against the Croats and the Moslem Bosnians, these men were the cutting edge of the effort to terrorize the non-Serbian populations into abandoning their homes. In return for carrying out Belgrade's policy of ethnic cleansing, Arkan was allowed to take whatever he wished from the refugees. Cars, money, TV's, VCR's, jewelry, household appliances, kitchen sinks, even copper wiring were all carted away by his men to be sold in Belgrade or smuggled out of the country. Arkan's share of the loot had already made him one of the richest men in Serbia. He and his men also took women, both for their own pleasure and as a calculated method of terrorizing their traditional Moslem and Croat enemies. In the Balkans, rape was a weapon of war; it was a weapon for which Arkan had a particular passion.

It was a passion which Arkan enjoyed indulging both personally and vicariously. At the moment he was content to vicariously enjoy the young Moslem girl's rape. As the now sated Sergeant withdrew, one of the men holding the girl's legs took his place. Arkan watched as this man rutted atop the young short haired girl, covering her slender body with his own bulk as he ground himself against her so that only the girl's fine featured, boyish face was still visible. For now Arkan was content to savor the pain and humiliation on that face from a distance. He would, Arkan knew, have ample opportunity to inflict his own tortures upon the young girl. For Arkan operated one of the most notorious of the Serbian rape camps in a hotel he had commandeered from its Croatian owner, a rape camp which he kept full of captured Croat and Moslem women even now despite the so called peace accord. The camp and its women were in Arkan's mind the most satisfying of the rewards the war had brought, better by far than the wealth the war had brought him. For Arkan the war had brought liberation from the shackles of conventional society. He no longer had to hide his passion for rape and mayhem; now he could be proud of it. For like today's rape of this filthy Turski neprijatelj, everything he did, he did for Serbia, as a Serb patriot fulfilling a centuries old mission of vengeance.

Arkan was so proud of his deeds that he recorded his trail of blood and tears for posterity. He had as one of his hangers-on a young man who before the war had been studying the cinema. Equipped with a video camera that had once belonged to an overly curious BBC stringer, it was Demrtri's job to record the great things Arkan was doing for his country. It would, Demrtri repeatedly told his leader, make a great movie. At the moment, he was busy filming the girl's rape, moving toward the girl for a close up of her terror filled face. The cameraman saw in her rape great art; in his mind it was the perfect metaphor for Arkan's assault upon this nameless little village. It will be great cinema, he thought as he filmed the rape; it will be a visual assault on the senses worthy of a scene from his favorite movie, Sergio Garone's masterpiece " Camp 5: a Hell for Women".

As the second man rolled off the naked girl, the cameraman panned down her body. Starting at her tear streaked face, he moved the camera down her bruised torso- the delicate skin of her breasts disfigured by red bruises from the rough hands of her attackers- to her bare sex. He focused the camera on the girl's red, exposed slit, the now gapping cunt lips covered with the cum of her attackers. The shot ended prematurely as the third man took her, throwing the legs of the now unresisting young woman over his shoulders and lifting her ass off the ground. Positioning her with only her shoulders resting on the cold stones, he proceeded to pound his cock into her, hammering his way into her womb. The camera lovingly captured the feral expression on the man's face as he raped the Moslem girl, an expression which was an equal mixture of anger and happiness in another's suffering. Demrtri panned alternatively from the man's face to the girl's, juxtaposing their emotions. Her pain vied with his pleasure; her humiliation vied with his shameful joy in her suffering. This was, for the cameraman, true cinema; no actors could duplicate this. It was real. Stepping back, he opened the shot to include the stern figure of Arkan set against the smoke and flames pouring from the looted house behind him, showing him watching over the Moslem girl's rape like some ancient Serbian god of vengeance!

He returned to the girl as the fourth and final man mounted her, rode her brutally, and then spent himself inside her, faithfully recording every move as he had so often done in the past. These men were his usual subjects, members of Arkan's private militia, the men Arkan called his Tigers. Officially they were the 11th Special Forces Brigade of the rump army of the Krajina Serb Republic. But the ":Special" in their title had nothing to do with any military skills. They were ethnic cleansers rather than combat soldiers. They "fought" the unarmed , the civilians, the helpless in Belgrade's ethnic war. They did the jobs too dehumanizing for the soldiers of the makeshift Bosnian Serb Army. Jobs like this one. And he was their chronicler, their Homer.

For the one hundredth time, Navy Lieutenant (j.g.) Bobbie Malone looked at her pilot calmly reading a magazine and wondered, "How does she do it?". This was a common enough thought for Bobbie to entertain about her pilot and mentor, Lieutenant Diedra Volksrye, A.K.A. "the Valkyrie" to everyone in their F-14 squadron. The older woman was everything Bobbie wished that she was- big, confident, and one of the boys. But right now, what Bobbie was wondering was how she stood the smell. She knew that the U.S. Navy had been feeding its sailors boiled eggs and baked beans for Sunday breakfast since John Paul Jones. It was a tradition. She just didn't understand why. She thought that they would have figured out by now that such a combination produces enough flatulence, what her male squadron mates so quaintly called Sunday farts, to make this carrier, the U.S.S Eisenhower, uninhabitable for normal people. Spending her Sundays cooped up in a ready room ripe with the smell of breakfast and half washed male bodies was not what she had in mind when she signed up for Naval ROTC 5 long years ago. Exactly what, she wondered, had been my reason for signing up- the white uniforms maybe?

Her digression into ancient history ended as the squadron operations officer for VF-142 entered the ready room and called for their attention.

"Good news Gentlemen...and ladies. We have a Mission! "

Even Bobbie was happy to hear that they finally had something to break the monotony of cruising up and down off the Bosnian coast and waiting. For once, the room's aroma was forgotten.

" We know that Serbian forces of the so-called Republic of Serb Krajina are preparing to attack a small Bosnian village near the key town of Brcko, located here on the Sava River. These people are pretty much the loose cannon these days. With the withdrawal of U.S. troops back into their camps, the Krajina Serbs have been attempting to expand their area of influence to the south by taking on Croat and now Bosnian Moslem forces. The good news is that they are not thought- I stress the word thought- to have any antiaircraft weapons beyond the SA-7 shoulder fired missile and some 20mm guns. You should be safe as long as you maintain at least 15,000 feet altitude above ground level. We have been given the mission of "deterring" the Serb attack. We are to do this by flying a photo recon mission over the fighting. No bombs; just pictures. Washington wants us to remind the Serbs that we are watching, but they don't want to hurt anybody! It is possible that the photos will be used to plan a later strike , though just between us I won't count on it. Valkyrie, since you're TARPS qualified, you'll fly the recon pod; Gumby and Goose will fly escort. You are to let them get a good look at you as you do the flyover; remind them that we are still here. Just don't go below 15,000 feet and use lots of flare countermeasures; those shoulder launched SAMS can spoil your whole day! The takeoff time is 1440 local. Brief-back is at 1340 so you'll have two hours to plan. Here is the target folder. Bad news folks. No air-to -ground munitions will be carried on this mission. Air-to -ground now requires the CINC's approval to even load. You get shot at; just grin and bear it. You will have ARM and air-to -air. You still have the ability to use either at first warning of hostile intent by a radar or - we should be so lucky- an aerial target. Any questions... OK, see you in two hours."

As the three named pilots crowded around the table, Bobbie stood back. Her job was radar-intercept officer, operating the F-14's powerful radar which was used to track other aircraft. But since the various sides in this nasty war lacked the aircraft necessary to challenge the NATO air patrols, she really had nothing to do except tag along in the backseat and watch. Valkyrie would plan the flight, Bobbie decided; she didn't need the help of a "nugget", a rookie on her first cruise.

" Fuck !", Valkyrie exclaimed as she studied the map, " What fuckin staff wennie wrote this? We gotta fly down a valley- under the cloud cover- so we'll be right at or below 15,000....and us with nothing to shoot back with! To take a bunch of pictures nobody will ever look at. This is ridiculous! Look at the approach here. It looks like we have to come in from the west in order to overfly the village."

The village in question had drawn Arkan's attention simply by being located at the foot of a hill which overlooked the town of Brcko, the real prize. Brcko itself was large for this area of Bosnia, approximately 100 mostly stone buildings set along the road and the river which traversed the valley together, as well as strategically located. It had changed hands several times during the war, most recently when it was given back to the Bosnian Moslem side at the American sponsored Dayton "Peace" Accord. With possession of the village and its heights, Arkan's Serbs would be in a position to retake Brcko whenever they wished by merely positioning their rudimentary artillery on the heights. This was the pattern of warfare in the Balkans- hold the high ground, and you hold the town. The populated areas were always in the fertile valleys, and there were always too many hills overlooking the towns to be adequately defended with the scant resources available. The attacking side had only to occupy one of the heights from which they could bring the town under fire from heavy weapons firing over open sights into the dwellings, leaving the defenders the choice of surrender or facing a slow house by house destruction. It was a war fought using the tactics of the 18th century with the cast off weapons of the 20th century. On the heights above Brcko, Arkan was already moving to place his "artillery", a single 85mm antitank gun. That one gun was quite capable of destroying the entire town house by house from its hilltop perch safely out of range of the defenders' small arms. Only a similar gun, which the defenders did not possess, or the intervention of American airpower could save the town once Arkan began the bombardment.

Arkan had chosen this set of heights for his gun because of the weakness of the village which controlled access to it. The 50 or 60 residents of the village had trusted to the peace accords and the now departed American garrison at nearby Brcko for their security. They numbered only a few armed men among the mostly related families living there, ex-soldiers of the Moslem militia who had kept their guns when they returned home. These men had been able to do nothing against the sudden attack of the camouflage uniformed Serbs. Appearing at dawn to surround the village, the Serbs had called for the village's men to surrender, threatening that they would throw grenades into the houses if the men did not comply. Hopelessly outnumbered and frantic to save their families, the men had complied, only to be herded away for eventual execution. Once all possibility of resistance had disappeared, Arkan's Tigers poured into the houses to loot as well as rape whoever was unlucky enough to catch their fancy among the frightened women and children. When they finished, the village would be put to the torch to ensure that no one- however foolhardy- could come back, leaving an empty, burned out shell where a village had stood for hundreds of years. It was not easy work. The Serbian irregulars had prepared themselves for their task in the usual manner- by drinking great quantities of slivovitz, the local plum brandy. Even men such as these- men who were experienced in the savagery of Balkan's warfare - needed to numb the mind and soul before they did their patriotic duty.

A little over two hours later, Bobbie was strapped into the rear seat of Valkyrie's F-14A+ as it moved toward Bosnia at a leisurely 425 knots. Bobbie was always amazed at the age of the Navy's fleet of F-14's; this one had been built the same year she was born, making it 23 years old. With only fuel, a pair of sidewinder air-to -air missiles under its wings, and the bulky TARPS pod with its three cameras under its belly between the twin engines, the plane felt unusually quick and maneuverable under Valkyrie's sensitive touch. Bobbie could tell that Valkyrie was nervous about this flight since she had brought along her Walkman and her lucky Wagner tape and was playing it - thankfully at a low volume- over the intercom. The sound of the tape made Bobbie think of the stories that she had heard of Valkyrie's first month in the squadron. Valkyrie had been the first , and only, woman assigned to the squadron when she arrived a year ago. To say she was unwelcome would be an understatement. The squadron wit took one look at her Germanic name, her blonde hair, and her 6' muscular build and dubbed her " theValkyrie". The name stuck since it fitted her " don't fuck with me, I'm bulletproof" attitude. For a joke, one male flyer got a tape of Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" and played it one day when she entered the ready room. She loved it; Valkyrie bought a recording of Wagner's entire 4 hour opera and began playing it constantly, much to the annoyance of her squadron mates. Compared to Bobbie's inability to gain acceptance in the squadron even after two months, it had taken Valkyrie less than a week to make her mark in the unit. One night she appeared in the officers' club to meet her date, a F-14 driver from another squadron. Valkyrie had been wearing her party clothes: a black leather miniskirt, black high heels, black fishnet stockings, and a black blazer with nothing apparently underneath the blazer but her. One of the men from her squadron, who had a little too much to drink, tried to hit on her. When she ignored him, he put his hand on her ass to get her attention. What he got was a hard blow to the chest with her elbow, followed by Valkyrie grabbing him by his gonads. Then she lifted him up on his tiptoes as she said, " You didn't say, may I?" Bobbie knew that Valkyrie lifted weights and could easily believe she could have picked the man up by his privates if she had wanted to. As she held him on his tip toes, she smiled and said, "Ask nice and maybe I'll grant you a wish. What do you wish for, numbnuts?" Bobbie had heard that the male pilot didn't hesitate. " Ughh, I'de like my balls back, please ma'am... Lieutenant....Valkyrie?, ", he croaked. After that, she had been one of the boys; proof that her philosophy of " Grab em by the balls and their hearts and minds will follow" did indeed work, at least on aviators. Bobbie figured that all Valkyrie's macho stuff was part of the image which she had chosen for herself; that Valkyrie really bought into the whole female Tom Cruise- Top Gun idea. Bobbie also figured that Valkyrie told her that story because Bobbie had been having trouble being taken seriously by the male pilots. She wished she could be more like Valkyrie. Still, Bobbie simply could not imagine herself doing anything physical like that. She didn't think of herself as a whimp- after all she stood 5' 6" with an athletic body from four years of college sports. She had always been proud of her body. That is, until she joined the Navy and found herself surrounded by 6 foot plus flyers. Now she felt like a Lilliputian, and it was beginning to depress her. Bobbie was not even sure any more that she had what it took to be a Navy flyer. She was cute, not macho. That is not, she knew, a good thing to be in a Navy fighter squadron. When she had reported in two months ago as the second woman in the squadron, the squadron leader had taken one look at her and told Valkyrie to take her under her wing. She had heard him say to Valkyrie that Bobbie reminded him of a deer caught in the headlights of a Mack truck. That was, Bobbie knew, depressingly accurate. Valkyrie had done just as he ask, becoming a mentor, taskmaster, and big sister to Bobbie. She had even managed to stop the other pilots when they tried to hang the callsign "Bambi" on Bobbie. Bobbie found that life under Valkyrie's wing was at least tolerable. A month later to Bobbie's intense discomfort, her life became even more complex. She and Valkyrie became famous to the intense and unconcealed envy of the male flyers. A Newsweek reporter visiting the carrier had written them up as the "beautiful, but deadly duo" in a feature article. Now they were one of the must see features of the ship, trotted out for every visiting media hound and VIP tour that came to the Eisenhower, leaving the male pilots seething. Bobbie hated the whole thing. Valkyrie on the other hand loved the attention. She had a true fighter pilot's ego. Valkyrie even had her set speech which she used on each gap jawed interviewer when they ask the inevitable question about how she felt about combat. Valkyrie would smile and start about how her fangs were just as long as a man's and how she was just as tough. She was the one who did the talking while Bobbie kept quiet, content to bask in the older woman's reflected confidence. Bobbie found that she liked being the sidekick; she liked having someone else take charge of things.

There was just one thing wrong with their relationship. Bobbie was beginning to fall in love with Valkyrie. Bobbie was uncomfortable with this growing attraction; she had never had or wished to have a sexual relationship with a woman. But she could no longer deny her desire for Valkyrie. Being bunked together did not help. Bobbie was constantly and uncomfortably aware of Valkyrie's muscular but feminine body , so close yet impossible to touch. For, as she knew, Valkyrie was aggressively heterosexual. Anything male that was tall, reasonably good-looking, and not assigned to VF-142 was fair game for her trophy collection. One night Bobbie had returned unexpectedly to the quarters they had shared ashore to find Valkyrie having sex with a man. She had been embarrassed but could not look away. From the half open door Bobbie watched Valkyrie's sweaty, muscular, heavy breasted body in action as she sat astride the reclining man. She watched as Valkyrie rode him, her hair flying, grunting and moaning as the man roughly milked her breasts while she fucked him. Valkyrie made love with the same intensity that she threw into her flying. She watched the two fuck , oblivious to their surroundings, until the man appeared to come. Although Bobbie knew that Valkyrie must have had at least one orgasm as she watched, she saw that her pilot was still unsatisfied. As she watched in amazement, Valkyrie moved forward to mount the man's face with her cum dripping pussy. Despite the man's muffled protests, Valkyrie covered his face with her dripping pussy and begun riding it as she yelled at him to "finish it". At that point, Bobbie closed the door and withdrew, her knees weak with desire. Since then, the image of Valkyrie's sweaty body had haunted her awake and asleep, though in her mind's eye it was her face that Bobbie saw buried in Valkyrie's pussy, not the man's. That image always made her pussy dripping wet, just as it was doing now.

" Bobbie? can you hear me?"

The intercom brought Bobbie back from her thoughts abruptly, " Roger, sorry, Val. What is it?"

"We're approaching the target. Beginning descent. Get ready to start flare countermeasures; lets give em a real show."

In the valley below, Arkan was growing nervous. He did not fear American or NATO retaliation for his attack on the tiny village. Rather, he was afraid that the American airplanes would not come. The purpose of this attack was not just to lay the groundwork for an offensive to capture Brcko and the surrounding land but to burn the Americans' meddling fingers. The attack was the lure to attract their planes. By destroying one or more planes, the Serb leadership hoped to make the Americans and thus all of NATO reluctant to act later in the summer when the Serbs began a major offensive aimed at retaking the land they lost in 1995. To that end, Arkan's patron in Belgrade had arranged a surprise for the American flyers. He had purchased a battery of four SA-8B, Gecko surface to air missile launchers and the mercenaries to operate them from a corrupt general of the imploding Russian military. Unlike the older, larger SA-6 missiles which the Serbs had used to shot down an American F-16 in June of 1995, these launchers had the capability to track their targets optically, thus eliminating the tell-tale radar transmissions which had identified the firing location, and thus which the side did the firing. Since the SA-6 had never been fielded by the Army of Yugoslavia, its use would be a complete surprise; with no radar transmissions to detect, the Americans would be hard put to identify what had happened to their plane and , more importantly, who was to blame. Having the ability to reach up to 18,000 feet and a speed of mach 2, these missiles would be able to reach the hither-to-for invulnerable American planes. With two of the boat shaped launcher vehicles at each end of the valley, Arkan had been assured by the Russian operators that they would be able to hit any plane which came below the winter cloud cover.

As Arkan tilted back his head to take a drink of slivovitz, a series of lights in the sky caught his eye. Flares, he thought; the Americans are finally here. He watched as the tiny plane, black against the gray of the clouds, moved down the valley towards him, dropping flares every few seconds to decoy heat seeking missiles. He cursed, thinking that if the missiles were not fired soon, the Americans would escape. To his relief, he saw two streaks of flame appear behind and below the plane; the missiles were on their way. By the time the plane was overhead, the missiles had closed the gap. One veered to the right, decoyed by the flares at the last minute; the other flew straight into the plane, detonating as it seemed to touch the tail. A bright ball of red, and then Arkan could see pieces flying off the stricken plane. As the nose wavered, he could see another, dimmer flash as two tiny forms rocketed out of the plane before it began it final short journey down.

"Alert the hunting teams" He ordered the man next to him, " I want those pilots."

The missile's explosion came as a complete surprise to Valkyrie. She had no warning alarm from her radar warning receiver nor had she seen the missiles' smoke since they approached her plane from below and behind. It took only a micro-second for her to realize that the F-14 was doomed and that she and Bobbie would share its fate unless they ejected immediately. Without hesitation, she jerked the yellow, shovel handle shaped ejection handle, sending both of them into the empty sky above. As the explosive device jolted her upward, she prayed, "Oh God...Oh God...OHHHH SHITTT!!! ".

Due to her low altitude, the separation of the ejection seat and the opening of her parachute occurred almost as soon as she had cleared the aircraft. Things were happening so fast that she had no time to think. She lost sight of Bobbie as she concentrated on the side of the hill which was fast approaching. As she prepared herself for the shock of landing, she saw an unwelcome sight. A small truck was approaching the edge of the field she was headed for. Valkyrie could see the soldiers leaning out of the back pointing at her. Stories of what had happened to that female Air Force pilot who had been captured by the Iraqis during the Gulf War came unbidden to her mind. Valkyrie swore that was not going to happen to her. She would not be captured and raped.

Valkyrie hit hard but immediately gained her feet and began shucking her parachute harness. She saw that the truck had been stopped by the stone wall at the edge of the field, but that the men inside, ten at least, had dismounted and were running across the field toward her. The nearest was only about fifty feet away with the others spreading out in a line behind him. Valkyrie knelt and brought her 9mm Beretta pistol up from its holster. Holding it in both hands, she fired eight rapid shots into the approaching men. Without waiting to see the results, she turned and ran toward the tree line a dozen feet away, abandoning the chute and, more importantly, its attached survival rucksack with twenty odd pounds of food, water, and survival equipment.

Valkyrie crashed through the first few feet of the tree line, then found a tiny game path running at an angle. She took it, running as hard as she could to put some distance between her and her pursuers. There was still a light coat of snow on the ground , just enough to leave footprints. Though she saw this, Valkyrie had no choice but to ignore the trail she was leaving; there was no time for subtlety now. She had to put some distance between her and the Serbs. As she ran, Valkyrie counted. When she reached a hundred, she slowed and stepped off the trail, burrowing under the thick branches of some sort of evergreen until she thought she was hidden from view. As she caught her breath, she checked what equipment she had left; she found she had a pistol- half empty- and the contents of her survival vest: a short range radio, a hand-held GPS, a med kit, six small flares, a tourniquet - she hoped she won't need that!- and her blood chit, a piece of cloth carrying a promise in Serbo-Croatian to pay fifteen hundred dollars in gold to anyone returning the attached pilot to US control. Briefly, Valkyrie tried the radio, broadcasting "Any station, Chevy five-one" repeatedly without receiving any response. Though she knew that the radio was line of sight and as such vulnerable to disruption by the surrounding hills, the lack of response left her with a tremendous sense of being alone. As the first burst of adrenaline subsided, Valkyrie felt herself slipping into a feeling of fatigue and the desire to rest which she knew was a luxury she could not afford. She forced herself up and began moving again, this time avoiding the paths. She moved painfully slow, taking care to avoid making any noise by moving one foot at a time from bare spot to bare spot as she listened for the sounds of men coming after her. She had to get to higher ground where she could make contact with her radio.

By the time the Sergeant had returned from the tree line, the rest of the squad had gathered around the body of the man Valkyrie had killed. The shared experiences of the years spent together had effected even these, the least sentimental of men. There was a cold anger in their faces as they looked at the still body. Their Sergeant, a policeman in better days, welcomed it. Having hunted men before, he knew the difficulties which lay ahead; their anger would be useful if they were to find this American killer.

" Get the flashlights from the truck. We've got a long night ahead of us."

Bobbie had been blown clear of the aircraft along with Valkyrie, but the peculiarities of the wind had forced her away from Valkyrie and into the valley. As she descended, Bobbie could see men on a knoll about half a mile to her right but there was no sign of Valkyrie. Ahead she saw a weed covered field, her landing area. The field was , fortunately, empty when she landed, allowing her to roll up and hide her chute and then take shelter among the bushes in a small stream beside the field. She was very frightened; to her disgust Bobbie realized that she had pissed in her pants during the ejection. Now they began to bind underneath her flight suit, a constant reminder of her fear. Bobbie felt as though she were living a bad dream. She could not believe that this was real. Without Valkyrie, she felt lost and hopeless! Suddenly, she heard the sound of men approaching from upstream. Briefly, Bobbie considered fighting, but rejected the idea almost immediately. What effect, she reasoned, could my pistol have against men armed with assault rifles? Resigning herself to surrender, Bobbie felt a surge of hope when the men came into sight. They were in civilian clothes, and they did not look like any of the pictures of Serbs she had ever seen. They were slight, dark skinned and heavily bearded- almost middle eastern in appearance. She didn't even care who they were, so long as they weren't Serbs. Holding both hands above her head, she stepped up to the field and called to them as she waved her blood chit over her head.

" Help! I'm an American flyer. Can you help me?"

The first man jumped as she appeared and leveled his weapon at her but did not fire. In a moment there were three men clustered around her with others hiding in the brush to cover them. Bobbie could not understand either the rapid fire sentences they exchanged with each other or the slow, halting words in a different language which one of them addressed to her. The men had examined her chit but, to Bobbie's confusion, obviously could not read it She took off her helmet to reveal her short- but clearly feminine- brunette hair, pointed to herself, and repeatedly said with a smile, "American".

This produced an immediate response, though not the one she had hoped for. The man who had been trying to speak to her thrust his weapon into her face as he screamed orders to the others. In a moment, she had her pistol taken from its holster and her hands were tied behind her back. When that was done, the man who had been holding his weapon on her stepped closer and grabbed her by the hair.

" Great Satan", he spat, as he slapped her across the face with the flat of his hand. Then, apparently having exhausted his English, he unloosed a torrent of foreign words of which Bobbie understood three, " Allah Ahkbar" the Moslem affirmation that God is Great and "Infidel!".

Oh shit, thought Bobbie, Mujahideen. She knew that there were fundamentalist Islamic volunteers from Iran and even Afghanistan fighting with the Bosnian side, and that their numbers had grown with the breakdown of the peace accords. She also knew that they were rabidly anti-American. But she had never expected to meet one!

"Please, we're on the same side. We're both fighting the Serbs.", Bobbie argued weakly, bringing her another powerful slap. She could only watch as three of the men argued heatedly, presumably about her. She could see that two of them were looking at her hungrily, eyeing her breasts which the rope bindings were forcing forward invitingly if involuntarily. She felt very exposed and helpless now; fearful that these men were going to rape her. The fear began to grow inside her, an icy ball in the pit of her stomach. "Please, please no", she begged as one of the men began to stroke her face and hair. As he stroked her, the third man spat into the dirt and walked away from the other two. He gathered the bulk of the waiting men and rapidly left. She was, Bobbie realized, on her own.

The two men were joined by three more men who had stayed when the others left. The men half carried her to the edge of the field where a single large tree stood. As Bobbie cried and begged them not to hurt her, the men laughed among themselves. When they reached the tree, the men forced her down onto the ground and held her down as they untied her and began stripping her. They stripped her of the survival vest without difficulty but found the rubberized G-suit to be a problem. Two of them brought out their oddly curved knives and slashed it free while two other men held the screaming Bobbie down. Her flight suit was simpler; they unzipped it and pulled it off, leaving the struggling young brunette in her boots and long underwear.

" NO! LEAVE ME ALONE!!!.......ARRHHH....NO!!"

The knives came back out as a terrorized Bobbie watched, fearful that they were going to cut her as well as the underwear. In a moment, she was nude except for her combat boots and panties, the bra being cut away with the underwear. The cold hit her for the first time, raising goosebumps and causing her nipples to be come erect. One of the men began to caress them, pinching and rolling the plump red nubs as she lay on the cold ground.

"HELPPP....NO!....AHHHHH......DON'T!......PLEASEEE"

Under the leader's direction, one of the men retied her hands behind her back while another began cutting lengths of rusty barbed wire from a nearby fence. Bobbie froze in fear as that man approached her with the lengths of barbed wire. She was afraid they were going to hang her! Instead, two of the men held up her feet as the other man wrapped one end of a strand around each boot and tied the other ends to the large limb above her. Bobbie was left with her legs spread in a wide V, her ass a foot off the ground, and her weight resting on her shoulders and bound arms. Suddenly, she understood; they meant to rape her, not hang her! While she was not a virgin, Bobbie was inexperienced in sex. She had intercourse with only one man in her 23 years; he had been her boyfriend in college, and she had really expected to spent the rest of her life with him. The thought of five men using her sexually against her will terrified the young Naval officer. In all her life, no one had ever hurt her physically; the thought of being raped sent shivers through her !

" UMMPPPHHHEEEEEEEEE!.........NOOOMPHEEE!"

When he saw Bobbie's parachute pass his position on the heights, the half drunk Arkan suddenly decided that he would be the one to capture the American airman. And he would have his man film it; it would be a great scene for his movie. Gathering his cameraman and his ever present bodyguard Alexander, he set off in his land rover followed by a dozen of his Tigers in a truck. After some confusion, he arrived at the area of the field where Bobbie had landed. Dismounting, he heard screams and recognized that they were in English in which he had some fluency as a result of his enforced exile. Arkan had by now sobered enough to recognize danger. He sent a man ahead to see what was happening. The man returned with a confusing tale of five Moslem fighters struggling with a boyish brunette haired girl in the next field. Arkan returned with the man to a point where he could see the Moslems and their victim. It took him a moment before he realized that the girl must be the American flyer he had come to capture. Women pilots, he thought, American foolishness! The Moslems, he noted, had laid aside their weapons and were too busy with her to watch their rear; it would be easy to surprise them. But before he gave the order , a better idea came to him. He sent back for his cameraman.

"Demrtri, can you film that?" he ask, referring to the cluster of men attacking Bobbie. "Film it so that you can see the face of the girl and the faces of the men raping her?"

" Yes, Boss. I can do that"

Frantically, she struggled, shaking her head and screaming "NO"! The leader of the Mujahideen stood between her legs, caressing her. He smiled evilly at her as he ripped her panties away and used them to stop her screams, forcing her own piss soaked panties into her mouth to gag her. Bobbie had never felt so exposed and helpless as at that moment. With surprising gentleness, he traced his finger over her sparse cunt hair and to the delicate, pink lips of her cunt. The look of fascination on his face would have amused Bobbie if she had not been frightened half out of her mind. He began to probe her cunt with increasing roughness, pulling painfully on the tender cunt lips and spreading them uncomfortably. He said something in a hushed tone and the others all laughed. Immediately, he became rougher, forcing two fingers into Bobbie's almost virgin cunt. His penetration was a shock to the young woman; it was also very painful. Bobbie tried to be brave as he explored her pussy but could not stop a whimper as he penetrated her. As he smiled at her whimper, Bobbie realized how much this man was enjoying hurting her. Immediately, he pushed another finger into her and pressed deeper inside her unlubricated, unprepared cunt. Then with another evil smile, he withdrew his fingers, stood up, and began to unfastened his pants. He withdrew a large uncircumcised cock which he displayed to her as his companions cheered. He knelt between her legs, and without any preparation began to force himself into her dry cunt. Bobbie felt as if he were tearing her open as he forced himself into her unlubricated cunt. She frantically looked around her for someone to help her but could see only the grinning faces of the other four Mujahideen. The leader forced himself deeper into her as she struggled futility against his cruel cock. The pain burned its way down her body to her brain as she hung suspended head down from the tree limb. Bobbie felt as if he were ripping her apart, but there was nothing she could do to stop him. She tried to scream out her pain at his penetration. Never had she been so stretched. Tears rolled out of her open eyes and down her cheeks to the ground as she looked pleadingly up into the smiling, bearded face of her rapist. Bobbie choked back another whimper; she would not give the man the satisfaction of hearing it. But she could not stop the whimpers and moans which escaped her gagged mouth as he forced himself deeper inside her, stretching her painfully. Soon, he had penetrated as far into her as she thought he could possibly go; his wiry black cock hair mixed with her soft brunette vee. Bobbie could hardly breath; it was as if his cock was completely filling her and leaving no room for air. Pleading with her eyes, Bobbie begged him to stop hurting her; he only stared gloatingly back at her. He gripped her legs and began to pump in and out of her cunt. He fucked her brutally. Bobbie's body jerked with each of his powerful thrusts, pushing her back with the force of his thrusts and then pulling her hips toward him again as he withdrew. Then he would slam into her now open cunt again, painfully rubbing her shoulders back and forth in the dirt. One of the other Mujahideen was running his hands over her bouncing breasts, squeezing the soft breast flesh, twisting the sensitive nipples painfully as his leader fucked her. Bobbie thought he was trying to lift her up by her nipples as he grasp each one in his fingers and pulled. As she was fucked ,Bobbie moaned and whimpered, tears streaming from her eyes. Val, she thought, where are you?

The leader of the Mujahideen continued to fuck her as she hung there helpless, suspended by her feet from the tree limb. Her awkward position allowed him easy access to her cunt, which he took advantage of to drive his cock into her with great force. The head of his cock was soon battering against her cervix as he forced himself into her sore, abused cunt. Bobbie had never experienced such a deep penetration. She was sure that the man was tearing her apart inside; that he would kill her if he continued. But, there was nothing she could do except lie there helplessly. She could feel her cervix opening under his brutal assaults. It seemed to her as if the man was going to impale her on his cock; that it was going to keep penetrating her until the head came out her mouth!

The bearded man fucking Bobbie could hardly believe the tightness of the woman's cunt. It seemed to grip his cock like a fist, massaging it as he thrust in and out. He stared at the girl's slender but firm body as it moved sensuously in response to his thrusts. He savored the way her athletic body fought his penetration in a futile attempt to try to deny him his rightful pleasure. To his mind the woman was a Western whore, a true descendant of Lilith the tempter of Adam, with her shameless display of her face and body. She, like all the other women he had seen in this country of Infidels, had no idea of what a woman should be. She deserved this, he thought; it was a fitting way to deal with any woman who defied God's commandments and fought against men. He would show her; he would show all those shameless Western women who had tempted him with their filthy lust. Angrily, he pulled the gag from her mouth. He was determined to break her, to hear her scream for mercy and then to show her none. He gripped her thighs, feeling the muscles under the soft skin, as he pulled her cunt towards him to meet his thrust. He fucked her brutally, determined to break her will with his cock, to hear her scream. That she would not do so enraged him. Her moans were not enough. Repeatedly, he thrust into her with all his might, using his rock hard cock like a weapon to subdue the infidel. Around him, the other members of his band of man- hunters cheered him on as they stroked their cocks at the sight of the young woman being beaten into the ground by their leaders cock. Finally, he succeeded in forcing the scream he wanted out of Bobbie.

"NOOO!.......PLEASEE STOP....YOU'RE HURTING ME!..AAHHHHHH!"

It was the scream plus the sight of her pleading face and its tears which drove him over the edge. He thrust himself into her one more time and then held himself inside her as he filled her womb with his hot, white cum. Then he withdrew and allowed the next man to enter her. He felt a great sense of pleasure at dominating the Western whore. He would take equal pleasure watching his men take the infidel woman; he wanted to watch her face as his men raped her.

Bobbie felt the man's cum burning deep inside her; then she felt an emptiness as the man withdrew. Immediately, that feeling was replaced by the fullness of another hard cock. This time the pain was not as great; the cum from the first man was acting as a lubricant. She looked up to see another bearded, grinning face looking down at her. Bobbie was beginning to slip into a state of shock from the brutal assault. She closed her eyes and tried to close her mind to the pounding of his cock against her sore cunt. The second man was fucking Bobbie with the same brutal force as the first man. Bobbie felt so degraded, so dirty, that she could not stand it. She wanted only to die. She turned her face to the mud and screamed in her mind, Val, somebody, where are you? Somebody help me! The cameraman was sweating heavily as he followed the rape of the American woman through his eyepiece, filming everything. He could see her nude body clearly as she struggled against her bonds: her small but perfectly formed breasts moving wildly as she fought, her long, smooth legs flexing against the barbed wire ties, and her delicious ass hanging a foot off the ground. Her face was occasionally visible as it turned first to one side then to the other. He thought she was pretty, particularly with that short mop of dark hair. He just hoped he would have the chance to fuck her like those filthy ragheads were doing. For now, he concentrated on following the action in his viewfinder.

The second man had entered the helpless woman, kneeling hunched over her suspended body with his bare buttocks working to and fro. The young woman's body was moving in response, back and forth as if it were on a swing. He shifted his camera to her head as the man who had just raped her knelt beside her face and whipped his blood and cum covered cock across the crying girl's face. The camera caught it perfectly, even recording the smears of cum and blood left on her smooth cheeks.

Bobbie was brought back to reality by a sharp pain as the man fucking her changed his angle to hit a different part of her uterus. She opened her eyes to see the Mujahideen leader standing over her smiling his evil grin as he watched his men using her. The second man used her as brutally as the first one had, pounding into her with all his strength as if to stab her to death with his cock. When he had spent himself inside her, another took his place. They began to run together in her mind. As soon as one would finish , another would take his place; all of them fucked her with equal brutality. Man after man used her, fucking Bobbie's increasingly cum filled cunt. The soft pink lips of her virginal cunt were now red and swollen from the brutal pounding they had received. The man cum dripped out of her distended cunt to coat her asscheeks and anus with its white scum. Despite the cold, Bobbie's taunt body was shiny with her sweat as a result of her constant struggles to escape the cocks invading her body. She could hardly breath. The men fucking her were literally knocking the breath out of her with their thrusts.

From approximately fifty meters away, Arkan and his cameraman watched the rape. He had sent some of his men around to the Moslem's rear where they awaited his signal. Still, Arkan waited as if transfixed as they watched four of the men complete their rape of Bobbie. The Cameraman was recording it all: the moaning, struggling woman, the laughing men standing over her, and the brutal thrusts of the kneeling man.

Through his viewfinder, the cameraman could see the cum covering Bobbie's crotch area. The whitish film covered her cunt lips and was now dripping down towards her asshole. The soft cunt hairs above her crotch were saturated in the same stuff, leaving them matted and awash in the men's cum. He shifted back to her face to record the agony evident there as she endured the vicious gang rape. Bobbie's face was turned toward the camera, allowing it to film the tears streaking down her cum stained face and record the silent screams now pouring from her mouth. By now, Bobbie had lost count of the times they had fucked her. Her pussy was one solid mass of pain from the pounding she had received. Nor did it recede as man after man fucked her. Instead, the pain built with each new attacker. Throughout it all, she could do nothing except sob, helplessly shaking her head "no" as the men used her brutally. By now, all five of the Mujahideen had used her. But the leader was not satisfied. Breaking off a slender, flexible branch from the tree, he stood over her swishing it through the air as he ordered two of the men to take off their belts and use them on the bound young Naval officer. As he concentrated on her breasts, the other two men used their thick, leather belts on her cum covered asscheeks. Now Bobbie's screams took on a new, full bodied quality as the switch landed across her sensitive nipples. As the thin red lines appeared across her untanned breast flesh, the two men with the belts were turning her asscheeks a bright red. As they whipped the young woman, their cocks began to harden again, stimulated by the cries pouring forth from Bobbie. Again and again Bobbie screamed out for them to stop, begging, pleading, promising anything if they would just stop.

" AAHHHHH!... I BEG YOU...I'LL DO WHATEVER YOU WANTEEE..STOP!"

But her cries were neither understood nor heeded. Instead they were savored by the leader of the Mujahideen as he shifted his blows from the young woman's breasts to the cum covered area between her legs. With the first blow falling across her swollen cunt lips, Bobbie thought that she would go crazy with the pain. Her body spasmed as she tried vainly to bring her bound legs together to protect her much abused sex. Then after six incredibly painful blows, the switch shifted back to her already whipped breasts. Then she felt the belts stop, leaving her ass almost numb. Next, she felt a man's fingers probing her whip swollen asshole. Slowly, painfully; he inserted the finger into her virgin asshole. She raised her head painfully to see the leader of the Mujahideen kneeling between her spread legs. Bobbie's moans increased in intensity as he penetrated her, mixing with the weak screams when the switch fell across her abused breasts. He withdrew his fingers and collected cum from the river flowing out of her abused cunt, using it to lubricate his cock. Then he pressed the head of his cock into her anal ring, pushing into the puckered, star shaped sphincter until it disappeared into a wide, smooth O around his cock. As he forced himself into her bruised ass, he watched Bobbie's face, savoring the look of pain in her eyes. Her voice failed her, reducing her screams to weak moans. The leader forced his cock into her tight asshole as Bobbie fought with the last of her waning strength to keep him out. But she could not; his anger and desire were too great. Deeper and deeper he sank into her as the others watched, too absorbed to do more than occasionally lash her breasts with their switch or belts. They watched and stroked themselves as they thought about how they would take her in the ass when their turn came. Their leader began to fuck her ass, thrusting in brutally to fill Bobbie's asshole totally with his cock. To Bobbie, every movement was torture; each time he penetrated deep into her ass, she would involuntarily clench her muscles. This spasm sent a new wave of pain through her while it pleasurably squeezed the cock of her anal rapist. Deeper and deeper he drove into her ass. It felt to Bobbie as if a burning brand was being forced up her ass rather than a cock. The pain and the humiliation seemed unbearable to the young flyer.

Suddenly, the man raping Bobbie's ass collapsed onto her , his head falling forward onto her breasts. A millisecond later, Bobbie heard the shot. This shot was followed by a dozen others before the sound of the first had died. There was silence followed by more shots. Bobbie could see the bodies of three of her attackers lying around her but nothing else from her inverted position. Thank God, she thought, they've come for me! It seemed an eternity before she heard the approach of feet. As she waited fearfully, the weight of the man atop her suffocated her as she was forced to endure the sticky, wet warm feeling of the man's blood flowing onto her stomach. Then she saw a huge, bearded man standing between her legs, smiling down at her.

"I've come to help you. I am a friend"
