Crucifixion is a brutal way to execute a person. In Sarah’s case extra care has been taken to insure her suffering lasts as long as possible before she succumbs to the torture of the cross. Although she was paraded naked to the hill, she did not have to carry her cross. There was no need to have her expend the energy doing so.
She arrives at the hill where the cross waits for her. She resists but Bull and Gunner have little difficulty stretching Sarah’s arms out over the cross. Tree tosses two of the spikes onto the ground and holds the third one over her right wrist. The spike is nine inches (almost 23 cm) long and has a square shank. Each face is three quarters (two CM) wide and only the tip of the spike is polished where the shank forms its point.
Sarah tries to pull away but with one blow of the mallet the spike drives through her wrist and is imbedded into the cross. She gives an animal like scream of agony.
Tree seems unperturbed by her cry and hammers the spike deep into the wood securing her wrist to cross.
He wastes no time moving to her left wrist. Even knowing what it will feel like Sarah again screams with the shocking pain of the spike tearing through her flesh and scraping the bones in her arm.
With her arms secure Tree moves to her feet. Bull and Gunner hold her feet one over the other with the bottom foot’s sole flat against the face of the cross. The spikes through Sarah’s wrists were very painful but nothing like the last spike being driven through her feet. She bucked like crazy but with the first blow the spike passed through her feet and secures them to the cross.
While Sarah howled in pain Tree finished driving the spike into the wood of the stipe.
Tree stand and wipes the sweat from his face. He looks down at Sarah spread and secured to her cross. He gives her a few moments to catch her breath.
Damn, I knew this was going to hurt but I have never felt such pain! I think the spike broke bones in my feet (it did -Ed.)! What is it going to feel like when they raise the cross and I hang from the spikes?
The wait is over. Bull and Gunner grab the cross and seemingly effortlessly begin to raise it with me nailed to the front of it. I want to scream but nothing comes out of my mouth.
-Sarah
Bull and Gunner are large muscular men and have no difficulty raising the cross with Sarah nailed to it. The base of the stipe slides into the hole dug for it before it free-falls and crashes to a stop at the bottom of the hole. At first Sarah hangs motionless as she is stunned by the pain. After a moment or two she looks up.
What the hell have they done to me?
