August 24, 1814.
The Presidential Mansion, the Capitol Building, and various government facilities are burning. President Madison has evacuated, running to hide from the destructive chaos raining down on the United States from Upper Canada.
Joint forces of Native Canadians and British soldiers seized Washington City, razing it to the ground in retaliation for the American’s attack on York.
It was just the beginning.

The smoking brass hit the wooden floors in a staccato of clinking and clunking as the rotating barrel gun emptied its magazine. The odor and haze of gunpowder filled the air in the confined space, burning nostrils as the clattering roar of the weapon battered ear drums.
“More! I need more!” the gunner yelled.
The rotating barrels slowed to a stop and another magazine of the large caliber rounds was loaded. Smoke from the barrels swirled upward, visible in the dim light of the gunship.
“Incoming!” a voice called out in warning.
The cannonball exploded through the hull, slabs of wood and a spray of splinters flying through the air behind the speeding projectile, and struck the support pillar behind them. Shards and chunks from the pillar flew through the air, wooden needles piercing leathers and hides, punching through skin and hitting bone. The screams of the injured were drowned out by the gun as it fired once more. Bullets rained down onto the American frigate, mowing down sailors and punching hundreds of holes through the deck.
The Flying Gunship turned tightly, and its hull angled downward as it passed over the frigate, allowing the bomb crew to open the wooden hatch. Ten of the timed bombs dropped from the opening as the pilot fought to hold the ship on course, the first punching through the deck of the ship below within seconds of exploding. The explosion shook the frigate as the gunship pulled up to avoid the return fire.
Cannonballs punched into the hull, gaping holes appearing in the wooden structure as the bombs exploded on the frigate below. One hit the ammunition room directly, the resulting explosion equal to two tons of dynamite, and the pilot watched as the frigate shattered apart into the cold water of Chesapeake Bay.

The war was far from over and the Americans were unprepared for what Chief Tecumseh had developed and put in place. Deep in the boreal forest north of the Great Lakes, a massive army had been created. Warriors, both men and women, of Native and Metis ancestry had banded together, integrating the peoples of Upper Canada, Lower Canada and the Plains of the west into a formidable force. Unknown to the Americans, British, and French, they had been preparing for years.
During the years of the fur trade, they had kept their knowledge and capabilities a secret from the colonizing forces and traders. Battle units of trained warriors were seen as hunters, gatherers and peaceful guides. Bows and arrows, small birch canoes, and tent villages were all designed to fool the invaders, leading them into a sense of superiority over the local populations. Beads and feathers, deer-skin clothes, and feathered headdresses hid the reality dwelling deep in the unexplored forests and vast plains leading the mountains of the west.
In the hidden valleys of the foothills and under the dense canopies of the forest lay factories, designing and building war machines and gear for the militia that had formed. Hides had been treated and used to make leather clothing with metallic strands woven into it. Puncture-proof, water-resistant, and lightweight, the clothing had been designed as armor. Puncture-resistant jackets, vests, pants, headgear, and footwear were assembled and supplied to every member of the ground forces. Huge, fitted blankets and leggings were strapped to horses, along with the protective cap for their head and neck, designed to hold the weapons and carry the ammunition required in support. The Warrior Horses had the additional protection of chest plates and flank covers, with saddle bags and holsters for a variety of weaponry.
In the northern plains stood large airfields containing the Flying Gunships, large wooden crafts using dirigible balloons of treated hides with sealed seams, small steam blowers, and multiple propellers. Each was equipped with rotating barrel guns, bombs, and steam cannons. The trained pilots and gunners formed a deadly crew and could deliver large amounts of destruction from the air and travel long distances.
On the creeks, rivers, and quiet bays of the waterways and lakes floated a variety of ships, from small and nimble assault canoes to the massive War Canoes that dwarfed the freighter canoes used by the voyageurs. Solid hardwood structures reinforced with armored hides on the inside, able to withstand cannon balls and carry a crew of nearly one hundred. Equipped with multiple cannons, rotating barrel guns, and boarding equipment they could take on any ship afloat. Deep in the bowels of each War Canoe were compact steam-powered turbine engines, running in tandem with reduction gears driving twin propellers, making them faster and more maneuverable than the sail ships and heavy frigates they faced.
As impressive and destructive as the arsenal was, the deadliest weapons were young maidens, the youthful warriors and scouts of the clandestine group known as Pisiw.
The Pisiw, or Lynx, is an alluring creature, a quiet, stealthy hunter difficult to find and as dangerous as it is beautiful. It represented the groups of young women spread across the land, beautiful maidens trained in the arts of war and manipulating men.
The young maidens were spies, often using themselves as a distraction, or more aptly, bait, to seduce and trap enemy soldiers who would then be ambushed. An effective tactic that had cost many of the Americans their lives and allowed the scouting team access to their forces. Scouts would identify routes and targets, setting the way for the well-equipped and armored warriors to infiltrate, disrupt, and destroy. The war was being waged in many ways and on many fronts.

Edmund was cautious as he slowly traversed the top of the ridge ahead of his squad. He kneeled and then crawled to the peak, keeping his body low and his head down until he could see over the rocky escarpment. Below him lay a deep valley, the meandering path winding through the deep forest barely visible. He slowly lifted his eyepiece, adjusting the burnished collar until it came into focus, and searched through the thick woods for any sign of the tribal army.
A movement caught his eye, too distant to see clearly, and he lowered the eyepiece to add the additional lens. Three turns on the threaded head and the telephoto lens was secure. He raised the eyepiece again and searched, finding the movement and focusing in. A twist left on the lower collar, two twists right on the upper and a half twist left on the center brought him in close.
It was a young woman, moving slowly and uncertainly along the path. She would walk a few steps, pause to look around and continue. She wore a fawn-coloured dress and hide slippers, and carried only a walking stick. He watched her intently for almost a half hour, scouring the forest around her for any movement. Satisfied that she was alone, he moved back and informed the squad that they were going to approach and question her.
Keme knew they would be on the trail ahead of her. She had caught the glint of the sun off the brass eyepiece high on the ridge, where she had been told to expect them, and prepared herself for the excitement to come.
The soldiers would be tired and hungry, a little nervous, and aggressive in their approach. Once calm and in her presence, they would also become exceptionally horny. A demure smile, a submissive attitude, and a little show of skin would awaken their lust and deaden their caution. The thought of it wetted her loins. She enjoyed this part.
Edmond stepped out first, holding one hand up and keeping the other on the hilt of his sword. The others quickly surrounded her and she was now encircled by the five uniformed white men carrying rifles.
Keme acted relieved and smiled brightly at the tall one with the sword. She knew he was the leader and spoke to him in broken English, thanking him for rescuing her and hoping they could assist her in finding her way home.
Edmund was quickly smitten with this young maiden that was excited to see them. The others eyed her as she smiled coyly and lifted her skirt slightly, giving them glimpses of her smooth brown thighs. When she kneeled down in front of Edmund and offered herself in thanks they focused their attention on her.
Keme took his cock into her mouth and worked Edmond to a frenzy in moments, making sure the others could see and hear. Another was suddenly behind her, lifting her dress and groping her, and she quickly moved to her hands and knees. Edmund dropped to his knees and shoved himself back into her mouth while the other inserted himself into her wet cunt. In less than a minute both erupted, filling her mouth and her insides with their hot cream.
Two others took their places, fucking her mouth and pussy in unison, adding their spunk to the others. Cum ran off her chin and dropped on the ground as she caught her breath. Another cock, this one long and thick, pushed into her cum-filled pussy. She welcomed this one, pushing back against him and letting him stretch her, moaning loudly while he fucked her. His thick cock hammered into her, hitting all the right spots, and she climaxed at the same time he did.
When he pulled away she lay on her back, scooped some of the slick juice from her dripping slit, and rubbed it over her body. It achieved the desired effect and Edmund quickly mounted her. Soon all had taken another turn, dumping loads across her body, on her face, and inside of her willing pussy.
The first arrow took Edmund in the chest, the second in the throat. Scrambling to their feet with their pants still down, the others were easy targets and in mere moments lay crumpled on the ground. Keme pulled Edmund’s uniform jacket off and used it to wipe herself down before straddling his body and relieving herself.

The shrill screeching emanating from the bowels of the gunship grew louder as the iron gears meshed unevenly and the brass support bearings wore away. The ship careened through the air, the pilot fighting to stay in control as the engine crew struggled to get to the gear drive. Chunks of timber had been blown into the gear set, disrupting the timing and twisting the smaller gear out of balance.
A growling scream filled the air as the bearings failed and the gears disintegrated on the shaft. Shards of metal flew across the room, deadly shrapnel of steel cutting flesh and breaking bones, and the pressure in the steam line to the engine spiked. It burst in moments, blowing out the bottom and left side of the hull, and the pilot aimed the falling craft at the nearest ship. The sailors below had no chance when it slammed into the deck, smashing off the sail masts and splitting the hull apart.
Chief Akicita watched from the bridge of his War Canoe while the gunship hammered into the frigate. Two ships downed, one gunship and a crew of warriors lost in the decisive battle. He checked his timepiece and wondered if the ground battle was going as planned.

Keme led the scouts over the ridge and down the path to the fort. Her frequent visits to exchange her body for food had allowed her to collect the information they needed to mount their attack and secure the location. Two scouts were sent back to bring in the warrior parties, over ten thousand strong, and Keme removed her bead-covered dress, slit it along one side, and lay it out open on the ground.
Each visit she had added the beads, sewing a detailed map of the fortifications and interior into an intricate design. Her nude body distracted the scouts, the sight of her firm breasts and curvy ass inflaming their lust. She recognized the looks on their faces and gave a bold laugh.
“After,” she promised. “You may have your turns with me when we are done.”
Chief Wapasha stepped forward. He had chosen to lead his army with the scouting party to ensure a successful victory, and held great respect for Keme. She was a fierce warrior and the best Pisiw in his army.
“Warriors, you are here for battle, not the allure of a woman!” He banged the metal chest plate underneath his hide armor and held up his War Club.
He turned and gestured to the scout nearest him, spoke in his ear, and turned back to Keme. He gestured for her to follow him and led her to a secluded area behind some thick brush. The scout joined them, bringing along two young warriors, each just past sixteen winters. The two stood and stared at Chief Wapasha, honored to be in his presence, and at Keme, awed at their first glimpse of a nude woman. Chief Wapasha put his arm around Keme and whispered in her ear.
"These are our newest scouts. They are just old enough to fight and die, with little experience in combat or other things. I trust you can show them one of the things they are fighting for?"
"Of course," Keme replied with a smile. "It is my duty, and my honor."
"You two, you are to stay with Keme. Follow her, and she will let you know when to join us."
The two nodded and stood nervously as the Chief and the other scout left them alone with the beautiful, nude woman and disappeared from their view. Movement through the brush told them the scouting party and other warriors were moving forward. Keme stepped forward and stood in front of them, hands on her hips, and smiled.
"My two young warriors," she teased while running her hands over their jaws. "Remove your hides and let me gaze upon you. You will get a taste of what awaits you if you return from this battle."
After glancing at each other they quickly stripped off the jackets, chest plates, and hide clothing covering them. Their sweaty skin glistened and Keme smiled in appreciation at the hard, muscular bodies in front of her. One stood at average height and had a slim build, the other a hand taller, with broad shoulders, muscular arms, and a long, thick cock. Although nervous, both sported erections and swallowed hard when Keme knelt before them. Her hands grasped the hardened poles of flesh and began stroking while she smiled up at them. She took each into her mouth, one after another, sucking them to near finish before stopping her oral assault. She directed one to get behind her and dropped onto her hands and knees, offering her backside and her mouth to them, and directed them to put their cocks into her.
