Part 1 – Introduction
Red Sonja strode through the back streets of the city with her blue cloak wrapped tight around her. She didn't know the name of the city and didn't much care. It looked like a hundred other cities she had visited. Dusty streets, cheap and dirty taverns with ale that tasted like dog piss, whores on every street corner after dark and people trudging around like zombies in the heat. Sonja was only passing through, picking up supplies and then heading south to Tol Atlek where the prince was supposedly hiring mercenaries for some war or other. She didn't plan to be in this city long enough to learn its name or meet any of the inhabitants unless they were unlucky enough to cross her.
"Help, help me!" screamed a female voice from the dark alleyway that Sonja was just approaching. Sonja sighed and stopped. This kind of thing was always happening to her no matter where she went. She would just be walking along minding her own business and then someone would call out for help. In the end, It didn't even matter if she stopped to help or not. If she stopped and saved the person, it would turn out that they were a princess or a temple virgin about to be sacrificed and then she would have to deal with a dozen sword wielding soldiers or priests. Sword wielding priests seemed like an oxymoron, but it was always like that. If she decided not to stop, somehow that would come back to bite her in the ass later. There would be some kind of mystic talisman or other that she would need and it would turn out the person she didn't help had owned it or something. Sonja sighed again and figured she might as well get it over with. She stepped into the mouth of the alley, surveyed the predictable scene.
"What's going on here?" she called out. Sigh, it looked like business as usual for a filth strewn ally in the bad part of the city. There were four men surrounding a half undressed woman. Two of the men were holding her arms, another was clutching the top he had just ripped off the woman and the fourth man was standing there leering and supervising. He would have a great career ahead of him as a city worker if he lived through the next few minutes thought Sonja. As for the girl, well make that a woman, because with tits that size she was no girl. The woman, was a beautiful Nubian with chocolate skin and large breasts topped with erect (what else?) nipples that glistened with sweat. The woman was struggling to get free, but the only effect was to make her breasts jiggle up and down for the entertainment of the four men.
"Get lost," snarled the supervisor with predictable charm, while the man holding the top dropped it and grabbed a handful of black boobs with each meaty paw.
Sonja sighed again. "We can do this the easy way or we can do it the hard way," she replied and took a step towards the four men.
"We know what the easy way is," sneered the supervisor. "You can get down on your knees and blow me. No wait, that is the hard way!" and he laughed at his own wit. "It will be the hard way cause I will be stuffing my hard cock in your mouth slut!"
"No, this would be the hard way," corrected Sonja calmly and let her cloak fall open to reveal the deadly looking sword she had strapped to one shapely hip. Of course this didn't help the situation much since the men noticed the hip before the sword. Not jus the hip either. Their eyes went up and down the incredible body in front of them. They took in the fiery read hair, the clear blue eyes, the full lips, the two wonderful soft mounts of her tits, barely covered by a turquoise blue metal bikini, the flat muscled stomach, the wide hips, long legs and right down to the boots she was wearing.
"Man, look at the size of the melons on Red!" exclaimed the thug holding the left arm of the woman. He glanced from Sonja's boobs to the woman he was holding. "They look about the same size to me boys," he commented, "should we take a closer look?"
This was getting boring in its predictability, thought Sonja as she drew her sword. "Let's just get his over with shall we?" she asked sweetly and charged forward. The supervisor managed to recover from his shock and tear his eyes from her bouncing tits in time to get his own sword out and deflect Sonja's first strike. Unfortunately, his potential career in civic works was quickly cut short as Sonja pivoted on her heel and removed his head with her second stroke. The head bounced a few times on cobbles and came to rest, predictably still looking at Sonja's cleavage. The other three men gaped for a second then thrust the half naked black woman behind them and pulled out their swords. With three to one odds against, most people would have backed off and gone defensive, but that was not how Red Sonja fought. She gave a cry and charged straight at the three remaining men. She faked a cut at the head of the man in the center and while he was still, ducking cut under the guard of the man on the left and opened his stomach up. While he was staring at his entrails, Sonja parried the hasty blow from the man on her right and then brought her sword up between his legs. He gave an inarticulate scream and collapsed to the ground in a puddle of blood.
The man in the center looked at his one buddy trying to stuff his guts back into his body, the head lying on the ground and latest soprano in the city choir and decided to make a run for it. He charged past Sonja and made it as far as the alley mouth before Sonja's throwing knife took him in the back. He staggered another few steps and then collapsed dead. It didn't pay to let them get away Sonja knew from past experience. If you were nice and let them run off, they just brought back a dozen of their buddies and on it went.
"Are you alright?" Sonja asked the black woman as she wiped her sword clean on the first man she had killed. The woman nodded, covering her breasts and looking around for her top. A crowd was gathering at the head of the alley. "I think we should get out of here before....." Sonja began but was interrupted by a voice shouting from just up the street.
"Guards, Guards! Over hear. Two whores just killed four honest businessmen."
Sonja rolled her eyes, grabbed the hand of the woman and pulled her after her out into the street. It was time to get out of this city, whatever it was called before the city guard showed up and made a nuisance of themselves by bleeding all over her sword. Blade still in hand, Sonja led the topless woman in a run down the street. At first a few of the patriotic citizens tried to follow them, but they turned tail when Sonja glared at them and waved her sword. She led the way to the stable where she had her horse and quickly threw its saddle on and slung saddle bags over its sides.
