Till Fourth Soil

(Author's Note:This is my first time writing torture scenes; I used a BDSM Glossary page on Wikipedia to research the tools. This is also my first time in writing a sex scene; so I hope I wrote these scenes well.)

Chapter Nineteen

THE OFFICIALS AND their aides left; I was left alone with Lord Nanbara and his men in that barn. I noticed the men surrounding the platform wore white ribbons to hold their sleeves back and they silently awaited their orders.

"You hid your-self well and spied on a ritual that was not meant to be seen by Ningen;" spoke Lord Nanbara calmly with a cold look as he stood from his seat and the stool was removed. "You will be broken through torture and remold to serve our purpose!"

I was stripped of the prison garb and forced to kneel, naked, and I was bound to a pole on the platform; blocks of stone were carried onto the platform and placed upon my lap one at a time. The weight of the stones pressed on my thighs hurt but I refused to make a sound even when they started dripping candle wax upon my bound arms; I bit my lip and refused to scream in pain.

"Gankona mesu inu;" hissed Lord Nanbara as his eyes glowed gold, "you'll be begging for mercy before we break you!"

I was taken from the platform once the stones were removed and I was unbound, I was taken to one side of the barn and forced onto my hands and knees, and forced to wear a weighted collar. I was forced to crawl on my hands and knees with a weighted collar around my neck; I was led around the barn by one of the men who pulled the rope lead and his cohort hit my back with a hunting crop.

I was made to crawl up the stairs of the platform where Lord Nanbara stood watching and crawled circles around him; despite the pain I was in I refused to make a sound.

"Give this Gankona mesu inu more pain;" ordered the lord with a growl to his voice, "more torture!"

I was dragged from the platform; the weighted collar was removed then I was dragged to a pillory and I was forced to bend over as my head was locked in place within the contraption, and my hands were bound behind me as well as raised. This position was comfortable until I felt a belt hit my ass and I almost made a sound but I bit my lip, and endured the humiliation.

"Nanbara-Kyō, dawn is breaking;" I heard someone say followed by footsteps, "the girl has suffered enough!"

"Yoroshī, we'll continue breaking her by nightfall;" declared Lord Nanbara, "take the girl back to her cell!"

They re-clothed me and led me back to the main prison; I limped into my cell before falling onto the hay nest and fell asleep from the torture all night just as sunlight came through the window. Time ran funny in Faery; I woke long enough to eat the meal they brought, it was awkward using the chopsticks but I managed and used the commode within the cell behind a privacy screen, later someone came and took the commode away, and a clean one was set up.

I slept the day away until nightfall and was brought back to the barn; my next torture was done to my cunt. I was bound in a rope harness, raised and forced the straddle a wooden horse; I felt the lash on my back and ass, and it made me squirm, this forced pressure on my cunt and it hurt but I refused to make a sound.

My defiance annoyed my torturers and there was much growling as they continued torturing, and humiliating me further. I was tortured throughout the night until my body developed bruises, even the hot candle wax left behind marks upon removal and when dawn came; I was brought back to my cell.

I endured the lashings, I was even hung upside down in a rope harness and my feet were whipped; I bit the inside of my lip and drew blood. I was given a reprieve as a doctor tended to my injuries and tried to regain my strength.

I was given three days to rest but I wasn't allowed to heal fully for on the fourth day I was forced back into the barn and endured another night of torture. I was forced onto a table with iron bars in the center; once I the men had me secured by my hands and feet tied to the table, Lord Nanbara came with a flaming torch in hand and went beneath the table.

I felt the heat of the torch at my back and soon the iron bars I was laying on began to heat up; I began thrashing against my bindings but I still refused to scream despite the pain I was feeling. For if I started screaming, I wouldn't be able to stop until I was begging for mercy and I would truly be broken, and ready to be re-molded.

So I will fight, I won't be broken and I will endure even to my pain threshold; I will survive, I will save my friends and we will all return home together!

"Gankona mesu inu;" said the lord in frustration as he came up from under the table and stood over me.

He finally stopped heating the irons further and I laid painting despite the burning on my back; I could feel the burn marks forming and yet I managed to smile at my torturer.


Chapter Twenty

I lost count of the nights I was tortured and I was exhausted as my body throbbed in pain that I barely managed a bite of food. I barely even slept as I laid on the straw nest and watched the sunlight through the cell window; I heard footsteps and pretended to sleep.

"Sadisuto kyō is losing his patience in torturing the girl and trying to break her;" said the guard before my cell, "her defiance is admirable!"

"Don't let Lord Nanbara hear you call him, Lord Sadist," spoke another in a brief panic; "the girl will break like the other Ningens who came before, finding their way to Faery and end up being sold after losing their true names!"

"Masa but the lord's inner wolf is acting up;" said the first guard matter of fact, "that only happens when the Ōkami otoko feel the call of the Three Moons - Phoebe, Mani and Bendis converging or finding a mate!"

"Don't say something so foolish;" declared the second guard with a scoff, "the Ōkami otoko finding a mate is more legend then fact. The lord's inner wolf is acting up because Lord Nanbara hasn't bedded a woman for a while and breaking Ningens helps him vent his frustration!"

"Wouldn't surprise me if the Lord of the Ōkami otoko has bedded a few Ningen females overtime;" states the first guard slyly, "before Phoebe, Mani and Bendis converge for the Great Hunt or one of the Wild Hunts, the Ōkami otoko start to feel the need to hunt, kill and fuck!"

"Even during one of the Wild Hunts or the Great Hunt beneath the converged Three Moons;" adds his cohort in agreement, "the Ōkami otoko have shared prey in a orgy with the four Shoguns and the Horned Lord when either Hunts are successful!"

"Of course the convergence of Phoebe, Mani and Bendis happens during the equinoxes, and solstices once a month;" said the first man in thought, "I'm overthinking and night is falling!"

"Baka;" gripped the other annoyed.

Well at least I learned something; Lord Nanbara also known as Lord Sadist is getting his pleasure from breaking humans...but...I am denying his pleasure by fighting him. The Three Moons of Faery are named Phoebe, Mani and Bendis; they converge every equinoxes and solstices once a month...I wonder what they look like converged?

I'm going to keep fighting and see how far Lord Nanbara can go beforehe breaks... I am doing something dangerous but I know I'll survive.


Chapter Twenty-One

I bit the inside of my cheeks as my body arced against the column I was bound to and pain radiated from my back after the lash bit into my skin. Another night and more torture was being done; I was suffering thirty lashes by the hands of Lord Nanbara and I could hear him practically grunting as he swung the whip.

When I felt the last lash hit, I sagged against the column and breathed out; water was thrown upon me and the cold water briefly cooled the pain as I was unbound from the column. Soon I was being strapped to the wheel and spun around until my head, and chest were submerged in water; I managed to hold my breath and closed my eyes every spin, clockwise and counterclockwise.

"Dunk her again and hold her under;" I heard the sadist order before the wheel, "hold the Subeta under!"

I managed to take a deep breath and kept my eyes closed as I was dunk, and held underwater for as long as I was able to hold my breath. I was starting to feel the need to breath and began to thrash a bit, I almost gave up until I was wheeled up in time and I released a gasp as well as coughed as I slowly opened my eyes.

I was released from the water torture, bound to the column once more and endured another thirty lashes by Lord Nanbara; I soon tasted my blood from biting my cheeks and lip, and I managed to spat the blood onto the floor.

"Kuso on'na;" hissed the man as he applied more lashes until I blacked out.

I came to with a gasp when water was thrown on me as I was unbound from the column, dragged and thrown onto the platform face down. Everything hurt and I could feel blood dripping from my mouth; soon I saw sandal feet pacing the platform and I managed to push my-self up to sit on my knees.

I noticed the other men had left and I was alone with Lord Nanbara who paced like a caged wolf. His body radiated with frustration, his eyes glowed golden and I could smell him; his scent was earthy and it made me feel flushed.

"Why won't you break, Gankona mesu inu?" He demanded as he approached me.

When he got closer, his earthy scent was all I could smell and taste when I breathed; his scent was doing something to me and it was also affecting my body. The man must've noticed when he was close to me; I kept my eyes lowered as I tried to control my body's reaction to the scent and I felt my-self being aroused as I fought against it.

I felt the tip of a jitte under my chin and the force lifted my head, I had no choice but to look Lord Nanbara in the eye and I felt my-self tremble. My body was in pain from the torture, I felt unwanted arousal and I wanted to run; my instincts were telling me to run from this man.

SLAP! SLAP!

Pain radiated from the open handed hit that Lord Nanbara delt to my face and both were hard enough to leave bruises; the man's attempt to make me make a sound.

I spat blood out instead...


Chapter Twenty-Two

I laid in my cell later; Lord Nanbara dragged me by my hair back to the prison and threw me inside the cell him-self, still naked and my clothes were thrown in later. I didn't have the strength to dress my-self, I crawled to my straw bed and pulled the blanket over my nude body; I didn't even move when food and drink were brought nor did I feel hungry.

I was left alone for the morning after my back and bruises were attended to by the prison doctor, and I even tried to sleep but even that eluded me too. I dozed for a while and when I looked at the cell bars again; the veiled lady, Lady Fate, was standing there.

"It's you;" I said stumbling to my feet and stumbled to the bars not caring of being seen nude, "I've been looking for you ever since my friends were turned into wolves!"

"I'm here to help and to warn;" spoke Lady Fate calmly, "Ichinoshin Nanbara is Lord of the Okami otoko and many call him Lord Sadist as he is the Master of Torture. Your defiance to break has caught his attention along with his inner wolf; whatever happens next will happen even if you fight!"

"What happened to my friends after they were turned?" I asked in worry; "Please help me save them so that we can go home!"

"They were released into the wild of Faery;" answered the veiled lady matter of fact, "they will wonder the Realms of Faery with no memories of their Ningen lives and will live as wild animals!"

"How can I save them?" I inquired sadly and she replied: "Your Quest has begun, dear child, you must figure out the challenges that will come. Do not fear the passion and pleasure that will follow; embrace these things for they are your weapons!"

Suddenly footsteps were heard approaching and Lady Fate turned into a bird, and flew away as Lord Nanbara entered the hallway to my cell; I quickly returned to my straw bed. I covered my-self, hid beneath the blanket and pretended to be asleep; while peaking from under the blanket.

Ichinoshin Nanbara entered my cell; he was dressed for bed but he still looked tense and I can smell his earthy scent from where I laid. I closed my eyes and breathed in that earthy scent while trying to relax but my body was becoming aroused, and I suddenly felt warm under the blanket.

"I know you're awake, girl, I can smell your arousal reacting to my scent;" said Lord Nanbara as he stocked to where I laid, "an Okami otoko pheromones is like an aphrodisiac drug and no woman - Ningen or Yokai or Sen'nyo can resist!"

The blanket was snatched off me and I was pulled onto the man's lap when he sat down; he didn't care if I was naked still, Lord Nanbara sat against the wall and he held me close. His earthy scent was stronger and all I could do was breath that scent in; my body was tingling from the arousal, I can feel my loins ache and I felt my-self tremble against the man.

Soon my breasts were being fondled, my nipples were pinched and stroked; I felt my legs being parted by his left knee until I was straddling his thigh as Lord Nanbara brought one of his hands from my breast to my womanhood. I pressed my back against his chest when I felt his fingers play with my outer and inner labias; I even felt his middle finger fondle my clitoris and pleasure went through me.

But when I felt his finger stroke my vulva and began pushing into my vagina; pain shot through me and I grabbed his wrist, and the hand moved away.

"A Shojo;" I heard the man say as I felt his lips brush my left shoulder, "I'm going to enjoy this!"


Chapter Twenty-Three

I was moved to my knees, turned to face him, felt a hand pull my head back and my lips sealed to the man's lips roughly; Lord Nanbara was not a gentle kisser. He plundered my mouth with a groan, my tongue weakly fought his tongue intrusion but he conquered and even licked the wound of my lip without a care.

By the time we parted for air; I had been carefully lowered onto the blanket, my injuries and pain forgotten as Lord Nanbara continued his conquest of my body with lips, teeth, tongue and hands. He nibbled and licked my neck, I arched my back at the feeling coursing through me, I soon gasped when I felt his mouth on my breast and his tongue stroking my nipple.

I felt my whole body tremble from the caresses, licks, nips and kisses; I even laughed when Lord Nanbara stroked my stomach, his lips mold to mine once more and welcomed the caress of his tongue. He even lipped my ears, making me gasp and I was running my hands up his arms as I felt his knee part my legs.

Lord Nanbara was soon laying on top of me with his hips cradled between my legs; he had discarded his robe and was fully named as I. I felt his flesh sword brush against my core, I looked at his face and saw what lust looked like, and his eyes were wolf-like.

Soon he was kneeling between my legs, his thumb and fingers parting my labias, and I felt the tip of his cock at the entrance of my vagina. Lord Nanbara stroked my stomach, causing me to laugh and I was distracted; until the pain of his penetration and the tearing as my virginity was taken turned my laugh into a gasping cry.

It hurt and I was clawing at Lord Nanbara's arms, trying to push him off and I also tried to move away from him; but he grabbed my wrists and pinned my arms by my head. Lord Nanbara continued thrusting, his flesh sword stretching my sheath as he slid in and out until he was fully sheathed inside, and stopped moving.

I laid pinned beneath him and watched as he held him-self still, our bodies connected at the pelvis and what was happening at the moment; soon Lord Nanbara began to move, developing a rhythm and despite the pain, it was starting to feel good and the pain was turning into pleasure. I was soon gasping as my body became flooded with pleasure; I felt my pelvic muscles contract and heard the man moan in pleasure as he kept his pace.

This was new...this pleasure; I found my-self mewling between gasps of pleasure, I bent my knees and widened my legs as I started to thrust back. But I couldn't keep up and I began to wreath beneath the lord's steady pace; I welcomed his lips as I began moaning in pleasure.

"Hmmph! Hmmph! Hmmph! Huh!"

Were the sounds I made before I moved my lips from his, turned my head and showed my neck; Lord Nanbara was picking his pace up and his thrusts were making me see stars.

"Uh! Uh! Uh! Fuck!" I moaned and gasped as pleasure coursed through me.

I could feel my body tensing up as I felt my first orgasm crush through me, my body shuddering, my cunt squeezing the cock and the only sound I made was: "Uhnn!"

Soon I could hear Lord Nanbara panting, his breath tickling my neck as his thrusts became wild and he was nearing his end.

"Pull out;" I cried afraid of him cumming inside me, "pull out!"

But it was too late as he orgasmed and he spilled his cum inside me; I gasped startled by the feeling: "Oh!" My body trembling until Lord Nanbara laid upon me with a pleased sigh; we were both gasping for breath as well.

After a moment I began crying and Lord Nanbara held me until I was done; he kissed my eyes and neck as he pulled out, and laid beside me. I wiped my nose on the blanket as I was held and felt my-self drifting off to sleep in the man's arms.


Chapter Twenty-Four

I awoke to a bell being loudly rung and smelled smoke; I tried to sit up but there was pain from my core and hips that had me moaning in pain. Lord Nanbara had awoken and was dressed in his sleep robe; he helped me up, got the prison garb on me and took me out of the cell.

The prison had been set on fire and prisoners were being released; prison wardens and guards were telling them to return in seven days, and their sentences would be reduced, the prisoners gave their word as they rushed out of the gates and into the night. But I wasn't really a prisoner, I was a Ningen held in prison to be broken and re-molded.

"You have seven days to leave the Obsidian Land;" said Lord Nanbara pinning me to the wall in the shadows, "I don't care where you go, return to the Ningen World or not but be gone in seven days!"

This was my opportunity to find my friends wherever they are; I hugged the man before I started limping away and no one seemed to care that a mortal was leaving. I didn't know where to go so I kept walking, pausing to look back for a moment and see half of the prison in flames, and feeling relieved that I won't be back.

I walked off into the night, still limping and in pain but I didn't care; I was free, I was going to find and save my friends, we were going home together. Suddenly the children who had helped me before came from the darkness and led me to their hideout, they gave me food and drink which I welcomed, and I slept in the girls' room for the rest of the night.

By morning and during breakfast of meager leftovers the four children introduced them-selves; Misaki, Aya, Nozuki and Mekujiro. Before I could introduce my-self, Lady Fate appeared and startled us; she rolled out a table cloth on the makeshift table, clapped her hands three times and food appeared fully cooked as if from a kitchen.

"Eat your fill from the Cloth of Plenty;" said Lady Fate, "then we'll go and bath!"

The children began eating their fill; I was handed a piece of paper and a quil.

"Write your name down;" instructed the veiled lady simply, "I will keep your name safe until your Quest is done!"

I wrote my name down, folded the paper and gave it to Lady Fate; when that was done I found my-self unable to remember my name.

"I've taken your name to protect you and I will return your true name when your Quest is done;" said the veiled lady solemnly, "I give you a new name to use and I name you, Bara!"

"My name is Bara;" I said before I had my share of food.

Once we were full, Lady Fate clapped her hands three times and the food vanished; the table cloth looked clean and white. Soon we went to a bathhouse; the boys were taken to the men side, while the girls and I went to the women side.

Misaki, Aya and I undressed in a changing room, and pulled on robes along with towels for washing and drying handed to us by the attendants who took our clothes away. It was confusing that no one seemed to notice that I was a Ningen, covered in wounds and bruises, and dried virgin blood on my thighs from my lost maidenhead.

Misaki and Aya practically dragged me into the bathing area, excited to wash up and eager to soak in the pool; we each selected liquid soap to use after smelling them to make our choice, I chose a peony and rose oil soap, and, the girls chose to share a jasmine and sandalwood soap.

We washed up in a separate area; I had to be careful in cleaning my wounds, Misaki and Aya gently helped with my back. I scrubbed between my legs as the memories of Lord Nanbara came to mind; his kisses, licks, nips, touches, etc.

I felt unclean...my body ached...

I wanted to go home but I don't know how...

My name is Bara now!
