Heviya, young crew member of a deep space bulk carrier, is on her way back to the Solar system. When her ship is boarded by pirates her maiden trip turns into a nightmare
1
Heviya Adel felt another wave of Panic flood over her. It was an uncomfortable shiver racing up and down the petite body of the 24 year old operator. She eyed the red icon on her Monitor and the figures indicating the distance of the raider from the Penelope continued to fall.
"Miss Fischer report" came the calm voice of Captain Pierre Lestrange.
Nadine Fischer was the Penelopes Chief Engineer. An Earther, and like Heviya from the European Union, but unlike the young woman she was in her mid fifties and a veteran of spacemanship. Heviya admired her for being so calm in this situation and wished that she could be more like her.
Nadine continued to listen to somebody talking over her headset. "Max confirms this is the most we can do. No way we can overcharge the engines any further without risking to blow the core."
"Miss Adel any luck with our friends from the Solarian Fleet ?" Lestrange focused his eyes on the young operator. Heviya swallowed hard and tried to remember her military training which now seemed to be a lifetime in the past. "The SF..." her voice trembled and she felt her palms breaking a sweat. The old man gave her the faintest of encouraging smiles and she willed herself to speak again. "The SFS Madrid is still the closest ship I have in the network. We sent our distress call two hours ago and it will take another... seventeen hours and forty minutes until they receive it. No response to our general distress call from any other ship."
Her eyes darted back to the menacingly glowing icon of the raider. Two hours twelve minutes until intercept.
The bridge fell quiet for a minute, which for Heviya felt like no small fraction of eternity.
"Miss Adel give me a channel to all hands" Captain Lestrange broke the silence. Her Fingers flew across the keys of her console and connected the Captains Comm to all speakers across the ship.
"Attention shipmates. As you know we are being followed by an unidentified ship which is not responding to our hails. We will be unable to reach the hyperlane network before they intercept us and there is no Solarian ship responding to our distress calls. To avoid any unnecessary bloodshed I intend to power down our engines and surrender to the attacker. You have all trained for situations like this. Remember that Elysium Interstellar has a ransom insurance for every employee on this ship. I will make it clear to our attackers that we are as valuable to them alive as the cargo on this ship. Offer no resistance when we are boarded, do as you are told and we will all get through this together."
After his short speech the Captain ordered an engine stop. The raider adjusted his approach shortly thereafter and Heviya saw the time to intercept decrease at an alarming rate. They had 16 minutes left until interception.
At 3 minutes before intercept Heviyas console lid up and indicated an incoming message.
"Captain, incoming message from the raider" Her voice sounded panicky again in her ears and she tried to calm herself down. "Only audio" she managed in a more normal tone
"Share it with the crew" the captain ordered.
Heviya did and seconds later a deep voice with a slight Russian accent was replayed over the Penelopes speakers.
"Trading ship, good call with powering down and cutting this hunt short for all of us. I will send a boarding party over. Here is the deal, you move your asses down to the main cargo hold and wait for our arrival. Hands were we can see em, no surprises. I swear to the devil if you try ANYTHING stupid I will not only kill you, I will torture and kill you so slowly, man you will beg me to be spaced so you can suffocate in peace. No hiding either. If I find ANYONE outside your main I will kill every last one on the ship. We will cut ourselves in so I don't want nobody near our airlock. When you hear us coming just stay away, stay down, shut up. Hope the conditions are clear now get to it."
The cruel voice of the pirate echoed in Heviyas ears. Her heart had turned to ice while she listened to his commands. She had never felt any more afraid in her entire life.
The captain ordered her to open a channel to the crew again. She could hardly hear him but her fingers typed the commands without much effort and she found a little reassurance in the routine task.
"You have all heard the gentleman. Please make your way to Deck 4s loading area immediately. Allow me to say that it has been an honor to serve for the last months, or," he nodded to Nadine ,"in some cases years with such a professional and competent crew." He signaled to Heviya to cut the channel. "Now Miss Adel, would you please be so kind and inform our soon to be guest that we will comply with all of his demands."
Heviya opened a channel to the raider: "Unidentified ship this... this is the Elysium Interstellar Cargo Hauler Penelope. We... we will comply with all demands. Penelope out."
Lestrange and Nadine got up from their stations and made their way to the lift which would carry them down to main loading area between cargo hold 1 and 2. Heviya followed them on shaky legs.

Cargo one was filled with rare metals from the moon of Asterion III and Cargo 2 was pumped full of liquefied Gas from the giant planets Stratosphere Extractors. The crew of 8 assembled in the main loading area. When Heviya, Nadine and the captain stepped out of the lift the twin brothers Juri and Aleksey from maintenance were already there. Max was just climbing up from the Generator room and waved casually at his friend Nadine who greeted him with a resigned nod.
Last to arrive were Shinji the botanist together with his husband Matheo who was Penelopes doctor, cook and chief expert on early 22nd century movies.
They all grouped together in the center since they could not be certain from which angle the pirates would cut through their hull. Nobody talked.
It did not take much longer until Heviya heard the screeching sound of metal from the wall to her right. That must have been the airlock extending from the pirate ship and making contact with Penelopes hull. The screeching was followed by a high pitched sound from a laser cutting through the hull from the other side.
"Stay back" said captain Lestrange and signaled his crew to sit down on the other side of the loading area. Heviya pressed her back on the bulkhead and started shivering. She felt tears welling up and bit on her lower lip. She had never been good at controlling her emotions.
Nadine who sat down next to her gave her a hug. "Wird halb so schlimm" she said in German. "Du hast den Captain gehört, wir sind gut versichert." Heviya tried to repay the older womans kind words with a smile which did not work out too well. Smiling was hard when you feared for your life. She focused on captain Lestrange again who had taken a stand before his shipmates.
With a flash and an exploding sound the inner hull caved in and immediately two rifles appeared at the corners of the new opening. "Clear" came a female voice from the other side. Four figures rapidly stormed the room. The first seemed to be the woman Heviya had heard moments before. She was clad in a black combat suit with protective armor like Heviya had seen during her military service in the confederate army. Her face was hidden behind a full metal face mask and a worn combat helmet.
The three men in her tow were not as well equipped. One of them carried the same rifle but no armor the other two held small caliber guns in their hand. One of the gunmen immediately caught Heviyas attention. He was a hulking brute of over 2 meters and had nothing on except for Shorts and a pair of leather boots. His torso was covered with burn marks and scars and most importantly he aimed his gun directly at her. The young woman held her breath.
Captain Lestrange stepped up and raised his hands placatingly: "Please, there is no need for violence, I am Captain Pierre Lestrange. We are willing to cooperate and I want to inform... " He did not get any further as the metal faced women brutally smashed the stock of her rifle in his face. The captain crashed down on the deck spewing blood from mouth and nose.
"Did i ask you a question you french cunt ?" she bellowed at him lying at her feet. Nadine rushed forward without hesitation and helped her dazed and moaning captain to retreat to the wall with her. Despite her shock and fear Heviya admired the valor of her shipmate to draw attention to herself like this while 4 attackers threatened them with weapons.
Metal Face took the time to eye up each of the captives. The giant covered her while the other two pirates secured the ladder to the engine room and the lift. When the woman looked at her Heviya turned her eyes down and watched the tips of her shoes.
"That all of you?" the pirate leader pointed her rifle at Nadine. The older woman met her masked gaze from below "The whole crew is here, there is nobody else aboard"
There was a long moment of silence, then Heviya heard a chuckle from the pirate leader. "Puta, I hope for your sake thats true. If I am walking around this ship and I or my gang get jumped by someone playing hero," she lowered her voice menacingly ,"I will kill that motherfucker and then I will make you kill that french cunt there before I make you kill yourself."
She sighed before speaking again, this time it seemed to be via a microphone inside her mask or helmet. "Boss I got the cattle all boxed, send Hoff over and we will secure the vessel.
Some time passed and 4 more pirates came over from their ship. Metal Face took some time to talk with a short, bald man while the captives were guarded by the giant and the other guy holding a rifle. Then the whole group came back towards them and without any further warning the brute towering in front of Heviya grappled her by her long auburn hair yanking her on her feet. She let out a scream more surprised from the sudden attack than feeling any pain from the manhandling.
"Get the fuck up you lazy bitch and turn your ass around" She was brutally shoved face first to the bulkhead and felt the brute binding her hands together with some kind of wire which sawed painfully into her wrists. She realized that everybody around her was being screamed at and receiving a similar treatment. Next she got her feet kicked away from under her and managed narrowly to prevent her head crashing to the floor by stopping the fall with her right shoulder. Her legs were now bound at her ankles, same like her hands.
Her shoulder hurt like hell while the giant knelt on her butt and kept working to bind her legs together. She caught a glimpse of captain Lestrange who got fixated next to her by his attacker. He looked at her with a sad expression. "I am so terribly sorry Miss Adel" she heard him mutter through his bleeding lips.
After that sudden burst of violence the pirates finally seemed comfortable with having them restrained and under control. Metal face kept shouting, this time short commands to her gang and they started to search the ship in teams of three in different directions. Two guards were left with the prisoners. The brute, now with his gun holstered and one nervous looking guy about Heviyas age who had arrived with the second group together with the bald man.
The brute squatted down comfortably and got his Smartpad out from the backpocket of his shorts to read something. His young comrade continued to pace up and down in front of the captives eying them suspiciously.
After some time the brute snorted at his fellow guard. "Linus can you chill out for fucks sake. No screaming, no shooting. Means the chief has evrything under control. Its no Q-ship and those shits are a bunch of harmless Junckpullers."
Linus did not seem convinced. "I chill when we are back on the Helldriver hyperspacing out of this system with this prize in tow. Until then I want to keep these fucks under control. They might try something"
"Allah" the giant sighed "stop it man. I have raided my share of ships. And I have seen how it looks when the prey tries something. Those pathetic lot is scared shitless and the only thing giving them ideas is your fucking fear. Fear, boyo, is what keeps em in line. And if you show it yourself, that's when a situation turns to shits.
Linus shrugged unpersuaded.
"But there is no need for that I am telling you, right now, we can do anything with them we want, they won't fight. They are broken and they have given up. Hell, this bunch, they were done even before we boarded."
Heviyas heart started to race. Something about the way he spoke did not sound good.
"I think I'll need to show you, boyo. Talking has never been me strong side. Hey you, redhead."
The giant rose and came directly towards her. No that was definitely not good at all. Heviya was unable to speak and her mind seemed to be slowing down. A hard slap to her face quickly brought her back to reality. "Whore I am talking to you" he was now towering directly above her. Heviya did not know what to do or say so she just looked up at him anxiously.
"So this is what we now do. You see my buddy here is under a lot of pressure. This little raid, first timer, I am sure you understand. So, now I will get my cock out and you start sucking me like the good little hooker you are. Then I will tear those slacks off your ass and give you a nice and deep ass fucking just to show our friend Linus here how much you like it. After I cum in your shitter you may crawl over to em and start sucking him hard so he can fuck your cunt. Evan a worthless nasty Spacer cunt like yours should be enough to release some pressure."
This was not happening. It couldn't be! "P-p-please," was all she could stutter, "please don't..."
"Ey Hus, I don't know man..." Linus looked at his companion uncertain.
"What is your problem, boyo, are you gay or something ?" said Hus incredulously
"Nah, that's not it... maybe we just do her later back on the Helldriver?" Linus supposed
This got worse and worse. Heviyas mind raced back to her self defense class during basic training in the army. Her captor was clearly stronger than her. And with her hands tied behind her back and her ankles bound together her options to fight back were more than limited.
"Oh boy this is worse than I thought" Hus chuntered more to himself. "Linus prepare for Hussein Lynch's life council session 101: Sex is best when its dangerous!" And with that he unbuttoned his shorts and let them fall to his feet. He slowly started stroking is hardening cock in front of the miserable girls face.
Heviya heard Matheo cursing to her left. "That's enough you pathetic coward, leave her alone already." She saw him struggling against his restraints and overheard Shinji next to him whispering something in japanese to keep quiet.
Hus ignored the doctor and kept his attention on Heviya. "That your boyfriend cunt? Tell you what I love meself a good threesome. Me rod counts for two and he can watch the show."
"Stay the fuck down...fuck...fuck you" Linus aimed his Gun directly at Matheos head, his hand slightly trembling. Heviya heard someone, probably Aleksey, calling for help. But nobody would be coming to save them now.
An enormous fist grabbed Heviyas loosely worn long auburn hair and her head was yanked backwards. Hus cock was now fully erect and she saw the giant grinning expectantly at her. "Start sucking bitch. Come on I am ready don't play innocent."
Heviya could still not believe what was happening to her. Her sight was clouded by tears now and she started to snivel. Another blow, harder than his first slap, landed on her left cheek and she tasted blood from the sidewall of her front lip. "You want it the hard way bitch ok, thats fine with me. I will not say it one more time start sucking."
Everything in her was revolting as she parted her lips and Hus cock roughly entered her mouth. The smell and taste was beyond horrible, a crude mix of old sweat, piss and machine oil. He was grinding in and out, starting at a slow pace and left out a satisfied grunt. The young operator was visibly struggling as the brute plunged deeper into her. She instantly started gagging as he hit her throat for the first time. Snot blew out of her nostrils as she fought hard to keep breathing.
She had never given anybody a blowjob in her live and was by no way prepared for the facefucking Hus was about to make her endure. She tried to pull her head away but hit the wall behind her. "What the fuck ya charra. Where d'you think you're going ?" He pulled out to position her struggling head in a more comfortable position for him.
"God please, please just leave me alone" she wailed
"Leave you alone? This is just foreplay, the hard part will be me destroying your asshole, so you better start enjoying this real fast. Open wide bitch, this time I don't want to feel your teeth!"
Heviya could not will herself to part her lips at first but three strikes aimed at her face quickly made her think better of it. The brute facefucked her in earnest this time and his hairy balls sloppily bounced off her chin, making wet smacking sounds from all the snot she was coughing up. Only the surreal situation and the fact that she did not eat anything in the last 8 hours prevented her from puking all over his cock right then. She constantly kept struggling to twist her head left or right but it was hard to fight the iron grip of his paws, that pinned her to the wall while her hands were tightly tied behind her back.
After what seemed like an eternity for poor Heviya which in reality could not have been more than 2 minutes Hus finally stopped his assault on her throat. She was shedding tears while simultaniously panting, her lungs finally filling up with much needed oxygen. Her rapist galred down at her apparently discontented.
"You really are a worthless piece of shit. S'that what you call a proper blowjob ? Letting me do all the heavy lifting ? Lucky you that I have a big heart and will take it upon meself to teach you a thing or two about technique. Big secret one: Quit playing virgin."
Heviya crouched down at the Penelopes bulkhead and wished to the universe that she could become invisible. She had just been orally raped by one of the most disgusting people she had ever met in her life. And the worst part of it, her shipmates and friends had watched it happen and nobody had been able to prevent it. Least of all herself. People like captain Lestrange whom she respected. Or Nadine who she admired. Or Matheo, her drinking buddy when they were both off duty. She had always loved trading stories with him about her life growing up in the Greater German Republic on Earth and his past in the Brannigan Habitats above Jupiter. What would they now be thinking of her? Could they ever look at her again with the same eyes ? Could she?
It began to dawn on her that this was a turning point in her life, there was no going back even if she came out here alive.
"Now what?" she was pulled out of her thoughts by Hus angry voice. " I am all talkative and helping hand and shit, and you stuck up bitch just freeze me off huh? Well tell you what Lady. I am done playing it nice. Now I am going to use you like the fuckdoll you are and finally get some fun out of this after all!"
He effortlessly grapped her neck and the waistband of her trousers and hauled her off to the middle of the loading area. "Now lets see what we are getting here" Hus muttered and started to unbutten the copper knobs of her grey Elysium Interstellar work jacket. "Well doesn't look like much Linus. Sorry boyo, that chink is as flat chested as you."
"Help please ... anybody ... AHHHHHH" Heviyas pleas were brusquely interrupted by Hus' fist meeting her stomach. "Will you hold still now?" she heard her tormentors cruel demanding voice. He tugged the jacket off her shoulders and peeled the fabric down until it met the bonds at her wrists. Below her company issued jacket she wore a white tank top. A sweet comic figure of a bear giving a thumbs up covered the front. The words "Ich bin ein Berliner" were written below its claw.
Hus made an irritated sigh before he started to rupture the thin cloth. Getting forcefully undressed by this brutal giant in front of her shipmates turned a switch in her brain. The first assault and her oral rape had happened so unexpectedly that there had been no time to get her bearing. It was different now. An unfamiliar anger welled up inside. She was not going to let this bastard rape her here. She started screaming like a maniac and kicked at him with her bound legs. Her attacker landed a harsh blow at the right side of her torso and he also lunged out at her face again but this time his punches could not subdue her.
She landed a kick in his crotch and the sound of his surprised shout of pain was the most rewarding thing since this whole nightmare had started. His next blow was aimed directly at her temple and her world exploded into a black abyss.
When the fog lifted she heard Hus cursing behind her. She weakly turned her head and watched as he threw the rags of her tank top aside. The bland bra Heviya was wearing came off next. The panic had gotten the better of her she realized. There was no way in hell she could have fought off this monster even if she had not been tied down by hands and feet.
"Okay Cawa, big mistake. I was really thinking about making this easy for you. Now I will put you in so much pain you will be begging me to kill you before this is over." Her rapist was boiling with rage now and Heviya could not bear looking at him stroking his half hard dick. She had never been one to consider suicide but if she would have an option now, a way out of this hell...
Her attention was drawn to cargo 1 were her shipmates were still kept in check by Linus. Captain Lestrange tried to get the guard to notice him, probably still thinking to be able to reason with somebody of this gang. Matheo and Shinji were not looking in her direction, probably unable to stomach to watch her abuse and she saw the japanese botanist crying silently. Aleksey and Yuri both shouted at Linus to do something to help her while the pirate kept threatening them from a safe distance with his gun.
"Linus" she heard Hus bellow behind her. "Throw me that knife of yours I want to cut those slacks right off this struggling bitches ass." And with a lowered voice he hissed in her ear. "And maybe fuck you with it after I dumped my cum in your bowels how would you like that you crazy cunt?"
Heviya felt the full weight of the giant pressing her small frame on the cold metal floor. She felt his hard cock pressing tightly against her naked back. She saw how Linus turned around throwing a combat knife in their direction which her tormentor expertly caught. Is this really how her live would end ? Far away from Earth, out in the void, unloved and fucked to death by a raving lunatic ?
Suddenly she heard the bang of a gun going off and saw how Linus was knocked off his feet. Her eyes darted to Nadine. She must have been waiting for the perfect moment to make her move. Hus' Gun had been in the holster of the mans shorts which he had dropped before Heviyas brutal facefucking. The engineer held Hus' gun awkwardly in the restraint hands behind her back. She had assumed a half lying half sitting position to steady her aim and was now reorienting herself to get a clear shot at Hus as well.
The giant had acted quickly and charged at the older woman with a beastlike roar, the combat knife ready to strike. Then in an instant she saw a bloody flower forming behind his spine and the brute fell backwards like a tree cut down by a chainsaw. Nadine let out a triumphant scream but only a split second later her chest was ripped open and Heviya heard the clatter of several aimed volleys from an automatic rifle.
The metal faced woman and two of her thugs were filing into the loading area from the lift, weapons ready to shoot at anybody offering resistance. But there was no resistance left in the crew of Penelope after the bloodshed and violance they just had witnessed. The leader ordered her subordinate to check on their shot companions. He knelt beside Hus and gave a slight shake of his head before continuing over to Linus. "He's still breathing... I think" he reported.
"All right then get him over to the Helldriver and see if Needle can patch him up. As soon as you are back we will herd the cattle over and get the fuck out of here." She casually grabbed Heviyas left arm and dragged her over to the other captives. Directly after the pirate leader dropped her the intimidated girl crouched forward and tried to cover her naked boobs with her knees as best as possible. After that metal face picked up the gun close to Nadines corpse and handed it to her partner. "Typical Monday" she said sardonically.
