Greta, the Mighty Amazon Warrior: Part 4
By M.C.
The powerful woman begins her attack on the inpregnable castle.


Greta and Jason walked quietly through the forest towards the castle where the
evil landlord and his host of thugs resided; the place where Jason's sister
was imprisoned. The closer they got, the more nervous he became."I told you
Jason," the large woman said in a soft, reassuring voice,"you have nothing to
fear; everything will be all right."

"How can you possibly say that Greta?" he wispered," you saw the castle.
There's only one way to get inside and that's over the drawbridge; and it's
already drawn up for the night. Are we going to swim? That moat must be 50
yards wide and I've heard that there are huge crocodiles in it. And even if we
do manage to swim across it, how can we possibly scale those walls? They're at
least 25 feet high. Oh yes, and I haven't even mentioned his army of thugs
that guard the castle; they're supposed to be around 40 of them. They're the
ones who go around extorting money from all the farmers and villages in his
domain; the ones that kidnapped my sister. And what about the giant? They say
he's as strong as ten men. You may be a great warrior Greta, but this is
crazy. How can we possibly succeed?"

"Oh ye of little faith," the Amazon warrior answered him with a smile."You'll
see Jason. And after I've freed your sister and punished her abductors, I
expect you to honor your pledge to me and become my husband...of your own free
will."

"And even if by some miracle you should succeed, what's to stop the lord and
his thugs from exacting retribution on my village in return? These men are
ruthless Greta and we're just farmers, not fighters. How could we possibly
defend ourselves? We don't have an army of superwomen at our command like you
do."

"First of all Jason, from now on you do. As commander of the Amazon army I am
here-by putting your village under my protection. Anyone who threatens your
village or any of it's inhabitants will have to answer to me. And second:
after tonight, there won't be anyone in this castle who would dare lay a
finger on your village; they're reign of terror ends here and now."

"But Greta, how can you...," that's all Jason had time to say before Greta put
her strong right hand over his mouth. She put her left index finger to her
lips for him to be quiet; then cupped her ear with her left hand, indicating
to him that she had heard something. Only her specially trained hearing
allowed her to pick up the sound of footsteps in the forest; Jason hadn't
heard a thing. "Must be guards on patrol," Greta wispered into Jason's ear as
she lowered the bag she was carrying to the forest floor."You remain here and
don't make a sound." A moment later she disappeared into the darkness.

Jason then heard the sound of the approaching footsteps too. In the dim light
he could barely make out the two forms, but they appeared to be rather large.
Although the men didn't seem to be aware of his presence, they were heading
directly towards him. Jason began to get a feeling of impending doom. Was
their adventure over before it even began? When the guards were only about 15
feet away, Jason saw two muscular arms reach out from behind them and grab
each one around the neck. The struggle was quick, silent...and deadly. Within
seconds both guards lay dead at Greta's feet; strangled by the mighty
woman."Two down and only thirty- eight more to go," Greta said as she casually
picked up her bag. She then took the stunned Jason by the hand and led him
towards the castle.

When they reached the edge of the moat where the drawbridge was, the Amazon
warrior did a surprising thing; she removed her sword and place it on the
ground. "Why did you do that?" Jason asked her in a wisper.

"Because it's large, heavy and I won't be needing it while we're inside the
castle. Did you ever try to swim across a moat with a twenty pound sword
wrapped around your waist Jason? It's not as easy as it looks."

"Where are we going to make this swim?" he asked, ignoring her attempt to
humor him.

"On the other side of the castle. When I was surveying it's defences earlier,
I noticed that the West side is badly weathered, that's the side that bares
the brunt of the winter storms. Many of the rocks there are chipped or broken
and it'll be much easier to climb up from that side after we've crossed the
moat. This landlord really should have kept his castle in repair; now it's
going to cost him."

"Greta, we're about to take on forty...err make that thirty-eight men,
provided we make it across the moat that is. How can you be so nonchalant
about all of this?"

"First of all *we* aren't going to be taking on anybody; I'll do the fighting
if you don't mind. You''ll stay behind me at all times and try to keep out of
trouble. I can't do battle with them and worry about you at the same time."

"Then why did you bother to bring me along in the first place; to be your
sidekick?"

"Three reasons Jason. The first: I thought it would give us a good opportunity
to be together and get to know one another better before we get married. The
second: you need to reassure your sister that this is a real rescue and not a
ruse. And third: (she reached over, put her hand into his pants, fondled his
penis and winked) need I say more?"

When the beautiful woman saw Jason's sad look, she grabbed him firmly by the
chin and pulled him to within an inch of her face. "Now you listen to me
Jason," she began in a quiet but serious tone of voice," I am Greta, the
mightiest Amazon warrior. I have never been defeated in battle and someday I
will be Queen. I'm thirty years old now and I want a man. Not a slave to
pleasure me and tend to my needs but a real companion to share my life
with...a husband. You men think we Amazons are just cold-blooded killing
machines; lesbian man haters. You're wrong; we're women. Strong, powerful
women for sure but women nonetheless, with all the needs and desires of any
other female. Yes, we rule over our men - just the way you men rule over your
women. Why? Because we're stronger. But that doesn't mean we don't love our
men any less than you love your women.

From the moment I first laid eyes on you that day in the combat arena Jason, I
desired you. For whatever reason one person is attracted to another, I'm
attracted to you. This isn't puppy love like with Hercules (see part 3 of this
series), I'm a full grown woman now and I want you. Sure, I could make you my
companion by fiat; but that wouldn't be love would it? When I saw you crying
on my bed that morning I decided that I would free your sister - if that's
what it'll take to win your love...and I will. And I'll tell you something
else too, if after this is over you wish to return to your village, you have
my permission to do so. I release you from your vow. Now, let's swim this damn
moat and finish this."

When they reached the Western side of the castle from where Greta had decided
they would make their ascent, the mighty woman picked up her bag and began to
whirl it around above her head. She then hurled it clear across the moat were
in landed at the base of the wall. Greta rolled up her long, beautiful brown
hair into a tight ball and then, hand-in-hand, she and Jason quietly entered
the dark, mirky water.

But their entrance did not go unnoticed. From the opposite side, a pair of
eyes spotted them. These eyes weren't human however, they were reptilian. It
watched the pair's progress as they made their way across the moat. Nearing
the end of their swim, the large, scaly creature awaited them. "We're almost
there", Jason wispered so as not to be overheard by any of the guards that
might have been walking the ramparts on the top of the wall,"we're
almost...Greta, what the hell is that?"

Suddenly, directly in front of them, the head of a 15 foot crocodile surfaced
and quickly swam towards them - jaws open wide. But quick as the huge beast
was, the Amazon was quicker still. As his huge jaws prepared to engulf her,
the mighty woman lifted up her powerful arms and, by placing one hand on the
top and the other on the bottom of his mouth, held the fierce beast at bay.
"Jason, swim to the shore. I'll handle him."

"But Greta I can..."

"Just do as I say Jason....now!"

Jason swam the last few yards then looked back, and what he saw amazed him.
The fierce reptile and the mighty Amazon were locked in a life-and-death
struggle - he, trying to close his powerful jaws with all his might, and she,
trying to force them open. For a few moments it appeared to be a stalemate.
And then - slowly - Greta began to pry open his monstrous jaws. Wider and
wider Greta forced his mouth open...until "CRACK!" she broke his jaw. The
victorious woman then released the reptile's lifeless body and let it gently
float on the surface of the water. "Well, that sure was invigorating," Greta
said as she emerged from the water," I wonder how we can arrange a crocodile
fight in our combat arena."

"Greta," Jason said shyly,"I - I was so worried about you."

"Oh, how sweet of you honey." She went over to him and wrapped her powerful
arms around the man she loved. They shared a passionate kiss. Then, looking
up, the mighty woman sighed, "now, about this wall..."
