A harsh voice, speaking in English, cut her off, âShut up. If you say anything more Iâll kill you!â
This was not a military patrol. Immediately she realized that some sort of independent criminal was attacking her. Probably from one of the gangs that had sprung up around the colony. She fought back as fiercely as she could. She whipped her arms about, slashing and pounding. She kicked and twisted her body from side to side.
He was bigger than she was, but for a moment she had him confused. He had not expected so much resistance. He tried to grab her arms, but that freed her legs and she kicked as hard as she could. She craned her neck and managed to clamp her teeth on his arm. He let out a scream and smashed her in the head with his fist. Her skull bounced off the ground and she saw spots of bright color in the dark. She thought she would pass out.
He flipped her onto her back and began ripping at her light clothing. She tried to speak, but her mouth couldnât form the words. She tried to raise her hands to ward him off, but he slammed his fist into her shoulder and she let her hand fall. He had her breasts exposed and was working on her pants.
Maria knew now that he wanted to rape her.

She might live through this. It occurred to her that she should let him finish and live to fight another day. Yet, she had always fought for herself. As he struggled to pull her pant legs down, she summoned up one last burst of strength and planted a firm kick in his face. Maria could feel him drop away and quickly turned to crawl in the opposite direction, struggling to get to her feet.
Suddenly, he landed on her with all his weight, crushing her to the ground and flailing with his fists at her head. She could do nothing but take the blows, most of which did little harm since he was out of control and his aim was poor. When he calmed down a little, he hurt her worse than the blows by pulling back her head by her hair and repeatedly pushing her face into the ground. After a couple of hits, she managed to put her hand between her face and the ground, softening the blows.
Then he swung her around and placed his face up against hers. He didnât say anything. There was no need since he had won. Maria had no more ability to resist, so she spit in his face. She thought he might hurt her again and was surprised when he didnât react.
Maria screamed out when he finally penetrated her. The pain was fresh, both mentally and physically. She attempted to move, to fight back. He held down her arms with his hands and his weight. Her exhaustion kept her from throwing him off. He rocked back and forth. Time hung motionless.
