FSTR - Chapter 3

Chapter Three - Mining "Accident"

"Everyone ready?" Asked the Head Whipper as he glanced at the Slaves in front of him with disgust.

"Yes sir. They can start to work right away." Stated a Whipper from a distance after he cracked his Whip.

"You heard him you filthy Wild Boars. Move. Follow the Whipper in front of you. Don't get me in a damn bad mood." Yelled the head Whipper, although a bit relieved that this task is finally taken care off. Now, he can have his rewards too. "Bring more patrol Guards in the Area. There are 120 Slaves, armed with pickaxes and hoes. I don't need another disaster coming from low lives!" His last words however, ended up making himself mad.

Trying to justify their tasks unforgettable embarrassment, "It was fool's luck Sir. I never expected for a domain as small as Hay Kingdom to sabotage our Ships." Shaking on his feet, the Whipper tried his best to not be Whipped by the Head Whipper due to this accident caused by the neglection of duty. Yet again, being Whipped would be considered the smallest punishment.

Now suddenly boiling in rage, the Head Whipper yelled from the top of his lungs, causing a scene and grabbing all of the attention. "Small or big, we lost 100 Damn Slaves and we lost a few Soldiers as well. The one thing we couldn't afford to lose. I should be whipping all of you."

And he almost did, he has full authority to punish such disaster in the cruelest ways yet discovered, but he was aiming to get away from the Mines as soon as possible. Because there were ladies basically waiting in the Ships, knowing their fate. And since slave rape isn't punishable in Hawk Kingdom or basically in any of the 4 domains in the Iron Boot Alliance, there is literally nothing stopping this 52 year old man from joining.

But to piss of the Head Whipper even further, the Whipper in front of him kept making excuses. "We were overwhelmed Sir. Once we noticed them, several were already on the ship. Throwing this weird water that burned quickly once ignited."

Continuing to shake on his feet while explaining, the Whipper couldn't handle anymore trauma. He already had burn marks and heard so many screams when the ship burned down. He can't handle a Whipping to top of this trip.

Hitting the Whipper's face hard (Not with a whip but with his right fist instead.) which bashed the Whipper against the ground, a rather strong embarrassment. "They wouldn't of thrown the "Weird Water" if you and the rest didn't neglect your duty and kept Guard. Pray to the 3 Gods that they didn't manage to burn all 4 ships. Otherwise even if you survived, I would kill you and your family too. Bastard! Now be gone!"

As the Head Whipper yelled, the Whipper who got punched to the ground, swiftly stood up and started running away from the scene and headed towards the mines, leaving a couple of teeth near the Head Whipper.

But of fear he wasn't paying much attention to his surroundings so he ended up stepping on his own whip and fell face first on the dirt. But like he didn't care of what he just experienced, he stood up again and made a run for it towards the deeper branches of the mines. This sight of fear and stupidity pleased the Head Whipper and he shortly after made his way towards the ships on the river with his lust growing.

He witnessed a scene that he got used off. This isn't their first slave trade. But since Hawk Kingdom has 18,000 non slave Civilians living in it, being the most populated Domain in the Iron Boot Alliance, the Slaves before were sent in less populated Domains of the Alliance such as Lumber Kingdom, Bale Kingdom or New Bale Kingdom for appropriate prices.

They are just members of an Alliance after all, they don't own each other tax but just buy each other's resources for Progress. Peace between the four domains is a less spoken off perk.

However, in the scene where he witnessed many "activities" in the Green River. Some Ladies seem to even have chosen to start enjoying their fate which was less disturbing to see compared to women begging for this nightmare to stop, begging for death and some even trying to drown themselves to escape this madness. It was a terrible scene but all the Guards and Whippers did was laugh at the victims and continue raping them. While further screams were also heard in the ships.

"How many 6 Golders did we get?" He casually asked another Whipper, as if he was used to this form of business.

"18. This time it was quite plentiful compared to last time." Answered the Whipper casually, but he did not seem to enjoy this scene. His face wore disgust.

"Grab the finest one and send her to the empty boat at the end of the dock. I need my reward as well, and remember. This didn't happen." With a cold psychopathic laugh, it wouldn't be something one wouldn't hear from a Head Whipper who makes a living practically torturing people.

"As you Command Sir!" Complimented the Whipper with a similar laugh, but it didn't seem as life filled.

The Whipper walked into the second Ship without wasting another second and came out dragging a healthy able bodied woman in her twenties by the hair as she was resisting. But he avoided whipping her since it would drop her market value afterwards and he would need to cover the lost expenses. Something unaffordable for him really.

"Let me go. Please!" Yelled the Woman with tears in her eyes knowing what her fate is about to be. But when she noticed that she is being dragged to an empty boat, she understood she would become a victim to a man with a higher standard. Which in a way, could be even worse.

She was thrown into the empty Ship's Captain's Cabin, stripped out of her clothes and begging for the Whipper to open the door.

"Give me the key." With his tongue down like a bloodhound, he looked through the glass window and witnessed what "beauty" the Whipper fetched and couldn't wait another second to get inside. The Whipper gave him the key right away and heard another command afterwards from the Head Whipper. "Stand Guard here. I do not intend to share this beauty before I'm done."

"Of course Sir." Answered the Guard with no life on his tone, is it just how he averagely speaks or is it something more?

As the Head Whipper walked in, he grabbed the Woman and pushed her on the bed, to give himself enough time to close the door with the key.

"Please. I didn't do anything bad to deserve this. Please don't do it." She cried out and burst into tears as she tried to cover her private areas, which was next to impossible when considering her different features.

But with no sympathy, he replied. "Don't worry. At least you aren't sharing the same fate with the ladies worth less than you. But as soon as I'm done, you will. Worthless rag."

...

Meanwhile at the Mine. Aaron James tried his best to mine out Iron Ore while having it hard to ignore the severe bloody wound on his leg caused by that Whipper in the beginning.

"What! Only 1 Ore? You've been in here for an hour Jackass!" A Whipper yelled while arming his Whip, aiming to hit Aaron. One thing he noticed, is that this is the same man who whipped him down and almost made him cough up blood with all those kicks on the waste. This whistling high pitched tone is hard to forget under a short time.

"I'm new at this. Give me some time please." He wasn't used at all to mining. Apart from that, he came from a different timeline which made the whole thing a lot more difficult. At this point simply dying would of been better than this.

But the longer his soul stayed in this new body, the more memories the former body owner had started appearing in Aaron's mind, explaining why he ended up being a slave in the first place. He fled from his own Country(Makemis) to avoid inevitable death due to the Constant war Between the two Alliances.

One Alliance called the "EarthRippers" was in constant war with the other Alliance called the "EarthQuakers" which caused for so many victims to flee towards the border, where the slavers of Hawk Kingdom fooled these people with a promised better life.

Aaron now technically comes from the Earthquakers Alliance. At least that's where he used to come from until the EarthRippers Alliance attacked Aaron's Kingdom with an army to big for his home Kingdom to fight off. His family all died in the hands of the Earth Rippers, he almost shared the same fate but when weighing his options, he chose to flee.

He also remembered his name being Macek. But he didn't like that name. And since he is in a country around strangers. He will use his own name, Aaron James. Because it sounds rather medieval too.

But the Key memory flash he had, was remembering that he himself is a Earthquaker who actually has Powers. A Natural Power based on a strong animal species, Bears. This power relies on one's physical strength, it is based on the bears because they have one of the Strongest Legs in the animal Kingdom.

Aaron though, he isn't scared. Even if he risks his life with his plan, it would still be better than living like this for 10 or possibly more years. He tried to carefully plan his escape, but the Whipper made him lose his patience when he whipped Aaron on the back where wounds were still healing.

Before Whipping him though, he said something inevitably with double standards. He said, "You dare question my authority slave? Then suffer!"

When he hit Aaron, it made Aaron loose control due to the intense pain. He hit the Whipper with the Iron part of the pickaxe which wasn't sharp, simply the area in the middle where the two sides separate. The Whipper screamed in pain and fell on the ground curled, holding his head wound with his hands and continued to scream for help.

The Whiper's scream for help was nothing less of a sweet melody on Aaron's ears, he even broke this retard's mask off! And as much as he wanted to rearrange this man's organs with countless kicks, there isn't much time to waste. He gave one final spit at his enemy and used the 25 Kilogram Iron ball to hit the Whiper's stomach.

Afterwards Aaron hit the chain attaching his leg to the 25 kilogram Iron Ball which would help gain a more swift escape and tried to run his way out of the mines but noticed that several Whippers and Patrol Guards were arriving at the scene, leaving no way to run through that branch (third) of the Mine.

Even though he felt like what he did was stupid, it felt like heaven to take revenge upon such a foul soul.
