Rudy's Night By Lomax Heather easily beats up 4 men while Rudy watches Heather's stone-hard, chiseled muscles glistened slightly with sweat as she lifted weights. A short distance way, across the gym, she was being watched. Rudy couldn't believe his eyes. He had always fantasized about stunningly beautiful women who were far stronger than him, but he didn't really think they existed, unless this was some kind of bizarre illusion. Heather was about 5'5", and looked like she weighed in at 125 or so, in other words, an ideal body. But never had Rudy seen a girl that was so ripped, or even a guy for that matter. Every facet of Heather's body was cut like stone. Her arm reached down toward a barbell that was on the floor. Rudy's mouth must have dropped open when he saw her hard, muscled arm reach down for it, because water dribbled onto his leg where he was sitting, at the shoulder- press machine, across the room. She was wearing a black cap-sleeved workout half-shirt, and as she extended her arm the rounded curve of her shoulder pulled out from the sleeve and her entire arm flexed as she stretched it out. Rudy couldn't see how much weight was on the barbell, but there were clearly more than one disk on each side. His brain fuzzy, Rudy desperately tried to compare the size of the weights to those that he could see racked against the wall, to calculate the total, but...it looked like a 30 - or was it a 40??! - on each side, plus a 10 or 12, but - that meant... - the total was...85? no - 65? Jesus Christ, Rudy realized with a sudden gust of clarity - if those are 40s, and 12s, it would be 104!! Pounds! Her left hand, the one she was reaching down with, closed around the bar and she curled the barbell, smoothly and easily, to her shoulder. Her bicep bulged insanely, and Rudy took an involuntary sharp breath at the sight of it. Then, still holding the barbell, Heather got to her feet, casually and as if she was holding nothing heavier than a book, or something. She reoriented herself in front of the mirror, then curled the weight again, then straight-lifted it up over her head, then all the way back down to her waist, and then she repeated the whole thing. Her arm looked hard as steel. Rudy struggled to focus on the weight he was trying to lift. He had 80 pounds on the shoulder press machine, and he banged out 7 more reps. She switched the barbell to her other hand, and started on a set. Fearing that she would notice him staring, Rudy desperately tried to pretend to concentrate on his own feeble lifting. To Rudy's dismay, Heather abruptly pulled on her sweatshirt and left the gym. Rudy immediately abandoned his workout and went to follow her, but not before investigating the barbell - he had to know. He walked over casually, as if to select some free weights to curl, and saw the barbell still on the floor where she had left it. As he sat down with a 25- pounder, he inspected the huge barbell. His worst fears were confirmed: there was a 40 on each side, plus a 15! making the weight of the entire bar 110 pounds! He tried to lift it, and could barely get it off the floor with both hands. His head swimming with the memory of Heather lifting it and curling it with one hand, he suddenly remembered she had left and he was supposed to be following her! She left the gym, carrying her bag over her shoulder, and walked quickly away. Why the rush? wondered Rudy, hurrying after her. He was trying to be inconspicuous, but was acting far too impulsively to accurately monitor himself. At the end of the block, as she was about to turn into the alley, she suddenly turned around. "Yes???" Why are you following me? What do you want?" she confronted him. "Um" Rudy said, not sure how to respond. "I just..." "You just what?" She asked, and started to smile. She clearly was not afraid of him. He got the sense she was about to recognize him from the gym. Just then, they both sensed the presence of others, and looked up. Four men had come into the alley, and silently they surrounded Rudy and Heather. Rudy backed away involuntarily, until he stood slightly behind Heather. "Ah ha, what a wimp" said one of the men, a grizzled, big guy, about 190, maybe 5'10". He was missing two teeth, and had a knife in one hand. Rudy glanced nervously from one to the other of them, and then back to heather. "What do you guys want?" he asked with as much bravado as he could pull together, stepping in front of Heather. The four guys all stood surveying him, with grins on their faces. They all looked to be in their 30s, all well-built, dangerous-looking, all bigger than Rudy. The guy with the knife was to the left. One of the other guys fingered his pocket. "Get outta the way, dickwad!" he said, and swept Rudy out of his way with the back of his big left hand. His shove sent Rudy sprawling, into the wall. As he bounced off, one of the other men kicked him in the chin. His head shot back and he slumped against the side of the building. Rubbing his chin, Rudy lifted his head and looked up - he couldn't tell whether more than a moment had passed. The men were ignoring him, leaving him for unconscious. They had Heather surrounded. "Give us your purse, bitch!" the tallest one said. He got right up in her face and stood smiling down at her, holding his hand out for the purse. He snatched at it. Heather's purse was hanging over her right shoulder. She turned her body so that he missed the purse, and then she stuck her left shoulder into his chin. He jerked back, annoyed and jolted. As he rubbed his chin in rage, Heather stripped off her sweatshirt and put her purse down on top of it. Her muscles glistened under the dim streetlight. There was nobody else aorund. it was quiet. The men's eyes traveled over her hard, chiseled body, and a doubt passed over them. But it was quickly overtaken by testosterone, rage and lust. "I'll kick your ass, bitch" said the tall man. Heather put her hands on her hips and smiled. "You want the purse, come and get it," she invited. He made a lunge toward her, trying to grab the purse while simultaneously shoving her out of the way, much as he had Rudy, but as he swung at her with his left hand, she brought up her right arm, so that his forearm crashed into her right bicep. She flexed it, hard, and his arm bounced off and the impact sent him staggering back a few steps. She flexed again, and then beckoned him with the fingers of her right hand. Furious, he charged at her, and swung wildly for her face. Without moving her body, Heather stepped into his blow and deflected it easily with her right hand. She stood, facing him, ignoring the other three who were watching, to her left. "Well?" she challenged him. "I thought you wanted the purse...are you not 'man' enough to take it - from a woman?" She smiled seductively at him, and flexed her arms in a double biceps pose. As her came for her, trying to tackle her to the ground, she stepped aside, but caught his undercarriage with her right arm and wrapped it around him. Squeezing and flexing her bicep, she corralled his body with her right arm, then, with a sudden curling movement, lifted him up onto her shoulder. She was holding his arms immobile at his sides, her arm twisted up in a bicep- flex posture. She flexed her bicep, hard. As her rock-hard muscle expanded suddenly into his rib cage, he screamed with pain. Turning to face his buddies, she held him easily, ignoring his squealing. Rudy was just watching breathlessly from up against the wall, trying not to draw attention to himself. However, one of the men saw him and came over. Rudy staggered to his feet, determined to fight this time. He swung hard at the guy's head, but he shrugged the blow off and drilled Rudy in the stomach. Rudy felt unbelievable pain exploding in his gut, and collapsed into a heap. As he regained his senses, he saw that his assailant had left him and had turned to face Heather. She had released the tall man, who was staggering around, clutching his sides, whimpering, and rubbing his arms in obvious pain. "You Goddamn bitch," muttered the guy whose gut-punch had flattened Rudy. He whirled and delivered an even more vicious blow to Heather's bare stomach. Rudy winced and closed his eyes, hearing a sharp call of pain. When he opened the, though, he was amazed to see the man holding his arm and now he was whimpering, too. Heather had not moved. On the contrary, she was smiling, and her stomach, unhurt, glistened with slight perspiration. Light from the streetlamps glanced off the facets of her abdominal muscles. They were cut like gemstones. "Is that the best you can do?" she asked. Rudy's eyes were transfixed by the washboard of her stomach. It looked completely invincible. She looked completely invincible. "Get her Fred!" the tall man yelled, but no longer seemed eager to carry out that task himself. Fred, the guy with the knife, closed in, menacingly, while the fourth guy came at her from the other side. The two men dwarfed Heather's lithe, slim body as they surrounded her. Fred reached for her with the knife, trying to cut her face. Simultaneously, the other guy grabbed her right arm with both hands and tried to bend it behind her back. Heather twisted her body back, avoiding the knife, forcing Fred to lunge over her awkwardly with his own momentum. With her left fist, she hit him on the jaw with a blazing uppercut, and his body lifted into the air, hovering for a second above her. With her right arm, she pulled the other man, who was holding her arm with both hands, sharply to the left, so that the two men crashed into each other. They fell to the ground in a pile. The fourth guy went for the knife. Heather got there first. She stood between him and the knife. "You're a big, strong man," she told him "And I'm just a girl. Can't you get the knife?" As she talked, she smiled at him, and flexed her muscles for him to see. Despite the fact that he towered over her and appeared to outweigh her by as much as 80 pounds, it was clear that he was completely outmatched. She took his hands with hers and slowly bent his arms back, forcing him down to the ground. Then she transferred both of his hands to only her left, and continued to force him down. Suddenly, she let go of his hands and reached for his belt. Gripping his belt by the front, she pulled him back up to his feet. Then, slowly and incredibly, she lifted him off the ground, holding him by the belt, until she lifted him over her head. She straightened her arm. As she continued to hold him helplessly over her head, the other men all attacked her at once. The tall man tried again for her midriff. His punch rebounded, and he screamed with pain, as if he had just punched the side of the building. Her stomach looked like corrugated steel. She was still holding the one guy over her head with one hand. Fred grabbed her arm and as he did, she flexed her bicep, forcing his fingers apart. Fred's mouth dropped open: "It's impossible..." he started to say. "That what?" Heather asked. "That a woman could be this strong? Stronger than 3 men put together?" She turned and tossed the guy she was holding against the wall. His body slumped to the ground, unconscious. Fred, looking around in desperation, grabbed a twisted piece of metal off the ground. he swung it wildly at her. With her right hand, she took it away from him. "I mean, 4 men" she said, as she advanced toward Fred, the only one left standing. Fred backed away, his eyes wide with fear and disbelief. As she got close to him, he started to swing wildly, hitting her in the stomach and chest. His blows glanced off her granite stomach with no effect. When he swung for her face, though, her hand came up and closed around his forearm. As she applied pressure, his face went pale. Then, with her other hand on his chest, she pressed his body up against the wall. She straightened her right arm out, releasing his other arm, and continued holding him against the wall. He struggled mightily, but he could not budge. He swung at her with both fists, but she ignored the blows, some of them hitting her in the face. With her left arm raised, she blocked most of Fred's punches, still holding him hard to the wall with her right arm only. After a while, Fred started to tire from swinging so hard. Eventually, his arms hung loosely at his sides. Rivers of sweat ran down his face; he was completely beaten, too tired to even try to swing again. Then, Heather drew back her left fist and flexed her muscle hard. Fred's face grew even paler, and he desperately tried to pull away from the impending blow, but he couldn't move. Heather didn't hit him; instead, she started to laugh. "You're a bunch of weaklings," she said. "How much do you weigh?" she asked Fred. "190? 200? Do you know how much I weigh?" she laughed again, and, finally releasing him, stood back with her hands on her hips. "127," she told him, confirming what Rudy had guessed originally. "Come on, show me your manly muscles," she challenged him. "Hit me again, try to take me down." Roaring with rage, Fred took her up on her offer. He charged her, intending to just collapse his much bigger body on top of her, crush her, slam her to the ground. For an instant, Rudy, watching from against the wall, thought he had succeeded. Fred was on top of Heather, and he was furiously punching at her body, flailing wildly, trying to hurt her in any way possible. But then, suddenly, Heather straightened up slowly, lifting Fred with one hand as she did. Her right hand was placed squarely on his stomach, and as she stood up, she strightened her arm, pressing him up over her head, even as his blows bounced uselessly off her rock-hard body. Rudy was shocked at how cut, how chiseled, her arm was as she lifted him. Her stomach, too was completely tensed from the effort, and light glanced off her ripped midriff in all sorts of crazy ways. Quickly, Heather dropped her hand, dropping Fred too, toward the ground. But before he got there, her left fist came up in a blazing uppercut. She hit him somewhere in the face, maybe the chin, and as the trajectory of her arm continued upward, Fred's body reversed its downward movement, and shot upward again. For a sickening moment, he appeared suspended in midair before he crashed, unconscious, to the ground. All of Heather's muscles stood out in bold relief against the light of the streetlamps. She smiled at Rudy and extended a hand toward him. He reached up and gripped her arm, as she easily pulled him to his feet. He had never felt anything so hard and smooth. It was like satin on the surface, but stone underneath. Without an invitation, he let his hands travel up her arm to her shoulder under the cap-sleeve of her shirt. He could not believe the unbelievable power that he felt there. As Heather pulled him up into a standing position, he gripped her arm with both hands, completely surrendering himself to her strength. Even though he stood a few inches taller than her, and probably weighed at least 30 pounds more than her, her one arm was far stronger than his entire body. He knew it. He had seen it, and now he felt it. The rock-hard muscle of Heather's right arm was the last thing Rudy felt before he passed out.
