Victory Feast - Chapter 4 OKYPOUS By Nerraw nerraw0001@lycos.com A young novice Amazon kills ten men in her first battle. Like my two predecessors, I am but a newly conquered slave who is unschooled in the telling of these tales. And also my Mistress Okypous has just this day achieved the status of Matriarch. In fact in this her very first encounter with men upon the field of battle, she has achieved the status of Matriarch more than three times over when she slew ten men in fair combat upon the field of battle. Even as a young girl, Okypous had shown a predisposition to be dominant over males. She gave many of the boys of the Gynarchy of Amazonia their first taste of what it is to be a member of the inferior male sex. She was only six years old when she first placed her foot upon the neck of the boy next door. When she was seven years old, she took on the neighborhood bully. This boy had been three years older than she was, and he had stood a full two heads taller than she. Yet he fell before her furious fists even as a massive bull would fall before the fierce tigress in the jungle. My Mistress had experienced an exalted new thrill of power and of triumph as she had placed her foot upon the much larger boy's chest, and she had raised her fists in token of victory. It was at that moment that she realized that she was destined to become an Amazon Warrior. By the time that Okypous was eight years old, every boy in the neighborhood had knelt at her feet and he had sworn his oath of obedience on to her. When she had become a student at the school of Amazonjitsu, my Mistress had demonstrated her total dominance over the male slaves who labored in the fields. Among these men who tended and harvested the crops that helped to feed the women of Themiscrya, Okypous was the most feared Task Mistress of all the students at the school of Amazonjitsu. It was while she was performing her duty as a Task Mistress of men that she had first encountered the rebellious slave who was known as Pig Face. Pig face had foolishly thought that just because Okypous had not achieved the status of Amazon warrior by slaying her first male foe upon the field of battle, that he could get away with defying her. But the young Amazon maiden had soon put that blustering fool in his place. And yet Pig Face failed to gain any wisdom from his humiliating defeat at the hands of my Mistress. The fact that his confrontation with his Task Mistress had ended with him laying flat on his back in the mud with her foot on his chest, failed to teach him the obvious fact that the female of the species is superior to the male. He refused to accept the principles of female supremacy and he escaped from the Gynarchy of Amazonia, and he rejoined the brutal forces of Att-Dak the Barbarian. When back under the evil influence of Att-Dak the Barbarian and his brutal men, he became one of the most notorious and most brutal of rapists. Pig Face was one of those stupid men who always let his little head do his thinking for him rather than his big head. He had deliberately sought out Okypous thinking that he would avenge the massive humiliation that she had dished out to him that day in the fields of Themiscrya. When he confronted her upon the field, he had foolishly occupied himself with arrogant threats and with macho chest beating rather than with the skills of combat. The novice Amazon maiden had simply stricken him down without much of a fight. And thus had this arrogant boasting fool become the first kill of Okypous the Amazon. And yet as Okypous stood triumphant with her foot upon the chest of he who was her first kill, she had felt a sense of disappointment. She had felt more like she had just slaughtered a pig rather than that she had killed her first male enemy in single combat upon the field of battle. Pig Face was hardly worthy of being the first kill of she who is destined to become a great heroine of the Amazon Nation. But my Mistress had not long to think of these maters, for there were many other men who were in need of being slain upon the field of battle. The next man that she had faced upon the field of battle was a brutal warrior known as Eric the Red. Back at the court of Att-Dak the Barbarian, Eric the Red had boasted of how many Amazon women that he was going to kill this day. He had chosen Okypous as she who would be his first kill. But the young novice Amazon had other plans. She had parried the very first stroke of his sword with her labrys, and at the same time she delivered a devastating snapping kick to his testicles. As the big man had doubled over in pain, she ruthlessly dispatched him with just one deft stroke of her war ax. The big brute collapsed and lay upon his side. Okypous placed her foot on his shoulder and she rolled him over on his back. The triumphant Amazon placed her foot upon the chest of he that she had considered to be her first "real kill" since she had considered Pig Face to be only a blundering fool rather than a warrior. She raised her war ax high in the air in a victory salutation to the Goddess Artemis. Eric the Red was now Eric the Dead. But she who is now my Mistress had not long to revel in her triumph over the brutal warrior, Eric the Red. For two of his old drinking buddies, who's names I know not, had witnessed the ferocity with which the Amazon had dispatched him. And thus these two men had approached her with the intention of avenging his death. Okypous had parried the stroke of the first warrior with her labrys, and at the same time, she kicked him in the nuts. Then as he had doubled over in pain, she had dispatched him exactly as she had just done to Eric the Red. The big man spun around one hundred and eighty degrees and then he went down on his hands and knees. My Mistress placed one foot upon his buttocks and she shoved him forward so that he fell face down upon the carcass of Eric the Red. And there he died. Okypous parried the sword of the next warrior with her war ax. Now this man had seen how she had followed such a parry by kicking the first two men in their testicles. So just as my Mistress had parried the stroke of his sword with her labrys, he had guarded his family jewels with his left hand. She delivered a kick so that her heel struck him right under his chin with such force that she had broken his neck. The barbarian warrior fell dead upon the bodies of his two companions. Just then a man named Wild Man Togaar had leaped over the bodies of the three men that Okypous had slain swinging his sword like a mad man while doing a flip in mid air. But all of his fancy maneuvering was for naught. For just as he landed on his feet, the Amazon buried her war ax in his skull, killing him almost instantly. Her labrys was pulled from her grasp as the dead man fell back upon the pile of men that Okypous had killed. Okypous placed her foot upon Wild Man Togar's massive chest, and she had raised her clenched fist high in the air in token of victory. My Mistress had advanced from the level of tender Amazon maiden who had just recently graduated from the school of Amazonjitsu, to that of Amazon warrior. And then she had advanced from the level of Amazon warrior to the level of Matriarch by having slain a total of five men upon the field of battle. All this she had done during her very first encounter with men upon the field of battle. And the day was not over yet. Two more barbarian warriors approached the Amazon as she stood upon the pile of men that she had slain. My Mistress stood with both her feet upon the chest of Wild Man Togar as she pulled upon the handle of her ax while pretending that she was unable to retrieve it from the skull of her kill. One of the two warriors approached her from behind with the intent of striking her in the back. But just as this cowardly warrior was about to strike her from behind, Okypous pulled her labrys from the skull of her male enemy. At the same time she did a double backwards flip into the air and she landed on her feet behind the warrior, and she took off his head with just one deadly stroke of her war ax. The headless carcass fell forward on top of the pile of men that Okypous had killed. When the second warrior saw both the amazing skill and the ferocity with which Okypous had slain his companion, his courage had fled from him even as a jackal would flee from the fierce tigress in the jungle. He turned and began to flee from her in terror. But the terrified man did not get far when the Amazon flung her ax at him with all of her might. The war ax whirled through the air and then buried itself in the back of the big man's skull. The barbarian warrior fell upon his face to the ground, and then he flipped end over end. He came to rest laying flat upon his back. His head was turned to the side so that the handle of the ax that was still embedded in the back of his skull stuck out to the side of his body. The triumphant Amazon planted her foot upon the dead man's chest, and she reached down and she grabbed hold of the handle of her labrys. As she pulled up on the handle of her ax, his head was twisted until it was turned face down. There was an audible crack as she twisted his head until his neck had snapped like a dried out twig, and with her foot still placed upon his chest, she pulled her ax from his skull. Next the Amazon faced the warrior who was known a Long Cock who was one of the elite personal guardsmen of Att-Dak the Barbarian himself. Long Cock was armed with an eight foot spear. My Mistress parried the thrust of his spear with her labrys. But the barbarian spear man had a surprise in store for her. For just as she parried his spear thrust, he had sent her war ax spinning from her grasp with a skillful flick of his weapon. He had advanced upon the unarmed woman while thrusting his spear at her several times. Thus he had forced the Amazon to back away from him. "You had better give your soul to your Goddess Artemis, cunt!", Long Cock had bellowed triumphantly as he pounded his massive chest with a clenched fist, "Because your sweet little ass belongs to me!" Then he moved in for the kill. But as he thrust his spear at Okypous, she had dodged aside and she grabbed hold of the spear. Long Cock and Okypous played a deadly game of tug-o-war with the spear for a moment. Since the man was so much bigger and stronger than the woman, he was able to drag her across the ground quite easily, and it seamed as though he was winning the battle of the sexes. But suddenly my Mistress had leaped into the air and she slammed her bare foot into the big man's face with bone crushing force. With the force of this kick, she managed to pull the spear from his grasp, and at the same time she had knocked the savage brute flat on his back. Though dazed, the big brute tried to sit up. But his effort was frustrated as the Amazon planted her foot squarely on his chest and she shoved him back down on the ground. She shifted her foot from his chest to his face for a moment, and his squealing cry of terror was cut short as she drove his own spear through his chest and into the ground beneath him. The triumphant Amazon then placed her foot upon his broad muscular chest, and she pulled the spear from his lifeless carcass. Then the brother of Long Cock, who's name I know not, advanced upon Okypous. It was obvious that he was intent upon avenging the death of his brother. But Okypous easily parried the stroke of his sword with the steel tip of her spear. Then she struck him along the side of his head with the butt of the spear, sending him staggering backwards. She advanced and struck him along the side of his head with the butt again, knocking him back against the trunk of a large tree. She drove the point of the spear through his heart and into the tree trunk behind him. Long Cock's brother was now dead, but he still remained standing erect because he was pinned to the tree trunk by the spear sticking through his chest. The Amazon braced her foot against the dead man's chest, and she pulled the spear out of both the tree and the carcass of her enemy. Then she removed her foot from his chest and she allowed the corpse to fall face down at her feet. She placed her foot upon his neck and she looked down upon him with an expression of smug superiority upon her stunningly beautiful face. My Mistress did not have long to revel in her victories over Long Cock and his brother before yet another barbarian warrior had challenged her upon the field of battle. She flung her spear at this warrior with all of her might. It was with great skill that this bold warrior had deflected the spear with his sword sending it flying high into the air. Then it was with a great deal of confidence that this warrior had approached the unarmed woman with his blade poised for the killing blow. But Okypous then performed a forward somersault and she skillfully retrieved her labrys from where it had fallen. She had hooked the man's ankle with the blade of her ax, and she had pulled him off of his feet, and he went down on his back. But before Okypous the Amazon could dispatch this man, he did a backwards somersault and he came back up on his feet. My Mistress could clearly see that this man was by far the most skilled warrior that she had yet encountered upon the field. She quickly stooped down and she struck at his knees, but this man had skillfully blocked the blow of her war ax with his sword. The man and the woman had exchanged thrusts, strokes, and parries for nearly ten minutes, and neither combatant was able to win the victory over the other. The Amazon had grudgingly admired this male enemy that she faced upon the field. And yet she was determined that she was going to slay him, and that she was going to take his testicles as a trophy upon the field of battle. At last Okypous had managed to fake this man out with a very clever maneuver. She began to alternately strike at him from the right and left sides with a figure eight striking pattern of her labrys. She continued this for about half a dozen times until the man had become accustomed to this pattern and until he began to anticipate each blow. At last when the warrior woman had struck a blow from the right, instead of following with an expected blow from the left, she had spun around three hundred and sixty degrees, and she had struck a second blow from her right. The barbarian warrior had parried to her left expecting an attack from that direction. The man barely had time to form an expression of shock and terror upon his face before she who is now my Mistress had dealt him a savage blow of her war ax from her right, killing him almost instantly. As this man began to fall to the ground, his sword arm had somehow become entangled in the tree branches above him. Thus this man did not fall to the ground as was expected of him, but he had just limply hung there from one arm. Okypous was greatly angered that this man that she had fairly slain in single combat upon the field of battle, should somehow manage to cheat her of her Goddess given right to place her foot upon his chest and to raise her war ax high in the air in token of victory. "FALL DOWN!", Okypous had cried angrily, "You male chauvinist pig! FALL DOWN!" At the same time, she had stomped her foot against his chest with such force, that his arm was dislodged from the tree branches overhead, and he toppled to the ground and rolled over three or four times before he came to rest laying on his side. My Mistress had considered the fact that the barbarian warrior was laying upon his side to be yet another attempt of a very stubborn dead man to rob her of her right to place her foot upon the chest of her kill. She had placed her right foot on his shoulder and she rolled him forcefully over on his back. "You male chauvinist pig!" she cried as she had placed her foot firmly upon his broad muscular chest, "I have slain you fairly, and I will place my foot upon your once proud chest! May the great Goddess Artemis take you as her faithful and obedient slave!" She pressed her foot down hard upon his chest in order to force his soul out through his mouth and into the clutches of Artemis, the great war Goddess of the Amazons. My Mistress, Okypous the Amazon had slain a total of ten men in fair combat upon the field of battle. It was at this time that I had encountered Okypous, the fearsome Tigress of Amazonia upon the field of battle. Though I knew that I was no match for her, my fear of loosing face in the eyes of my fellow warriors was far greater than my fear of this woman. So thus did I foolishly approach her with the intention of engaging her in single combat upon the field of battle. Okypous parried the stroke of my sword with her war ax. At the same time, she delivered a devastating kick to my testicles. As I doubled over in pain and as I began to vomit up my breakfast, the Amazon seized me by the hair of my head, and she pulled me down on my knees. She pulled my head forward and downwards. She was about to lop off my head with her war ax when word had swept through the field of battle that Queen Andromache had slain the mighty warlord, Att-Dak the Barbarian. So Okypous just placed her bare foot upon the back of my neck and she shoved my head down on the ground. The battle of the sexes was now over, and the female of the species was triumphant over the male. She stripped me naked by cutting off all of my clothing with her dagger. Then she had bound my wrists behind my back with a rawhide thong and she carved her mark in my naked buttocks with her dagger to mark me as her property and her slave. Then she left me laying there as she turned her attention to the men that she had slain. First she had laid the ten men that she had slain face up and side by side in a neat row. Okypous then drew her dagger and she collected her harvest of testicles. At this time Andromache, the Queen of the Amazons, had placed her foot upon the broad muscular chest of Att-Dak the Barbarian. So she placed her foot upon the chest of Wild Man Togar, and every Amazon placed her foot upon the chest of one of the many men that she had slain. And the Queen of the Amazons lead the triumphant women of the Amazon army in an exalted paean of victory to the Goddess, Artemis. Though my testicles had swollen to the size of grapefruit, and they pained me greatly, she showed me no mercy. In fact, she had laughed with much glee, and she had named me Busted Nuts. She tied a leash around my swollen testicles and she cinched it tight around them. She had pulled me by my nuts through the streets of Themiscrya in the magnificent triumphal procession that took place immediately after the victory of the Amazons over the men of Att-Dak the Barbarian. Busted Nuts shuts his eyes as he winces in pain from the devastating kick in the nuts that Okypous had given him. His eyes remain shut as he bows his head in token of his profound respect for she who is now his Mistress. And thus do we all know that his tale is told. We all admire the effort that he has made to tell this story despite the fact that his smashed and swollen testicles has left him in such agony that he can barely speak. It is clear that he will make the heroine, Okypous the Amazon, a most faithful and obedient devoted slave. Next it is the turn of Fallen Stallion to tell a tale of his heroic Mistress Ainippe who is the fierce captain of the of the dreaded Amazon Cavalry.
