Bane groaned softly, wondering why he hurt as he opened his eyes. He had to blink them several times until his surroundings came into focus. He had been going to the Shuttle Bay with Dasher when... He looked down and gasped at the sight of a torn and bleeding fox in his lap. The fox was breathing but was unconscious. Bane carefully eased the fox onto the floor before standing up. He waved to beckon a soldier to come to him and directed the fox be tended to. He hated to just leave him here but at the moment there wasn't a better option. Getting to the shuttles was imperative! He walked into the shuttle bay to see Talon standing in a corner but keeping a stern eye on Dasher. The cheetah was hard at work, getting the escape pods prepared to depart.

The wolf walked over to Dasher, who looked up with an expression he wasn't used to seeing. Frazzled desperation and the worry that Bane might tip the fragile balance the wrong way, looked back at the wolf. Before he could speak, Dasher put his hand on Bane's shoulder and squeezed harder than usual in warning as he turned and addressed Talon, "My lord, I would like to introduce you to Banehollow Ascendo. I request your permission to fill him in on what's going on?" The dragon nodded and said, "You may proceed." Dasher took the surprised Bane's hand and pulled him into the hallway for a bit of privacy before saying, "Bane, we have a serious problem on our hands. In this reality, Talon is a feral dragon and I mean a BIG feral dragon! I know from my world that you do not talk to them, like you would to anyone else. They have a short fuse and lighting it will result in flames and a lot of damage being done." Bane blinked as he processed that and said, "That doesn't make any sense. Yes, he's a dragon but he's never been feral. Not that there might not be some somewhere but I don't even know of any." Dasher shook his head and told Bane, "I have no idea what's going on but when I walked in, all I saw was a big angry feral dragon in the center of the room. I was able to calm him but he could still stop us from escaping this ship. He used his magic to shrink to a more manageable size but can switch back any time he chooses. I had to promise my life in exchange for his co-operation"

As Bane was digesting this, the two friends were interrupted by Ron stepping around the corner and approaching them. "How are things?", Ron said before gasping as he saw the bloody fox laying on the floor. A medic emerged from where Ron had and went to tend to the injured fox as Ron sighed and said, "He isn't the worst injured I've found. Seamus is being tended to by a medic right now. They gave him an injection to stabilize his condition and clear his vision. He needs rest but insisted upon helping with the evacuation. He has already issued an order for all remaining crew to make their way here. I ordered him to be brought here as soon as he could safely move, so he should be right along. Once we are clear of the ship we will set course for the capital and hope to run into a ship coming to investigate." Bane nodded as Ron then walked into the shuttle bay and began checking the ship preparations for the evacuation. He smiled and waved at Talon, who stared at him.

The dragon eyed the strange fox, he was getting images from the fox's mind that he just didn't understand. They were images of him with Ron and a strange green fox. How could it be him though, he had no memory of this? It was at that moment that Seamus was escorted into the shuttle bay. The green furred fox walked up to him and hugged the dragon, to the dragon's great surprise. Using his magic, Talon looked into the fox's mind. He was met with Seamus' own mental power and images flooded his mind! Images of the foxes, the wolf who had talked to the cheetah and the cheetah, as well as Talon himself with them. Suddenly, there was a splitting pain in the dragon's head. He clutched his head as an intense pain brought him to his knees. He held his head and growled loudly, alarming Dasher. The cheetah moved quickly to put himself between Talon and Seamus, urging Seamus to back away quickly while watching Talon. With a snarl and hard stare, Talon saw Ron and behind him was Bane and Dasher. He was aware of the rumor that they had been found. He was here because had decided to visit the ship and console Seamus over their loss! He stood up slowly, his wings spreading for balance and sub-consciously for intimidation. Ron eyed the dragon with a mixture of worry and concern for Dasher and Seamus, who were nearest the dragon. Dasher eased forward and to the side to take his friends out of the line of fire. With a deep bow, Dasher asked, "Majesty, are you alright?" Talon blinked and laughed out, "What's with the formal manners? Yes, I'm alright. What has happened?"

Ron pulled out his pocket scanner and scanned the dragon to make sure he was alright. The fox gasped as he eyed the readings, showing them to Seamus as he spoke up to say, "Talon, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're alive. The bad news is you were exposed to high levels of radiation from the anomaly. Somehow, perhaps because of how the bomb affected time, it activated previously dormant, remnant DNA in you, causing a shift in your genetic makeup. I think because of your magic power, you were particularly effected." Talon considered this and nodded as he said, "That would explain this odd memory of me in the middle of the room as a feral dragon." The fox switched on the loud speaker function in the console and hit his comm badge. He stepped into his command position and ordered, "Get all wounded into the ships first. All able hands, make your way to the shuttle bay but check for survivors on your way. We have a time limit people and the ships are leaving as they fill. When the time is up, the rest will leave and your tails better be on them or you will be on your own. Now, GO! GO! GO!" Ron put his paw on Talon's forearm and told him, "We will get you better checked out once we are back in the capital. Until then, will you give us a hand?" The dragon answered, "I will. What do you need from me?" Ron turned and asked, "Seamus, what's the status of the evacuation? Your best guess will do."

There was a brief pause before the fox replied, "I and the two officers with me, checked what was around us on the way here. If Talon and Bane were to take the port side and work upwards? We can take starboard and we can meet up top. Our shuttle will be waiting there for us and whoever we find, to take us to safety. The priority is to get everyone that's still alive, to that ship. Unfortunately, we are finding a lot of dead crew. I don't think very many survived." Ron acknowledged the information and sighed deeply and said, "Do what you can but understand, you are not expendable. I want all of your asses on that shuttle, even if it means you have to leave anyone else behind. Got it? Now move!"

Talon reached out and took hold of Dasher's shoulder, then leaned his head in close and stared into the cheetah's eyes. He sent mind to mind, * I did pick up a couple ideas from you, before. Making a cock sock out of you would be fun but short. You would tear far too easily for me to have my fun. But, I just might be able to cover you in my cum... * Dasher stiffened in surprise, then gulped and blushed as Talon laughed aloud and patted his back as he said softly, "We will discuss this after."

Two hours later, all that was left was one shuttle waiting for Bane, Dasher, Ron and Seamus. They had insisted that Talon get on the next to last shuttle. They felt it was their duty to be the last one's out, as well as an honor. They had left no one alive aboard her, rescuing all who had a chance. Ron sighed as he looked around and lamented, "I had wanted this ship to be the first step towards a new tomorrow. A tomorrow defined by peace and prosperity. Instead, on it's first shakedown cruise, we have fifty crewmen left out of two hundred." Seamus put his paw on Ron's shoulder and said, "Ron, we all want that. When we get back, somebody will have hell to pay for this. For now, focus on what we have left instead of what we lost." Ron sighed heavily, nodded and dried his eyes as the four of them entered the last shuttle. Ron watched the door seal and felt a jolt as the automatic program launched the shuttle. Sure there were plenty of escape pods left but there was nobody to use them. As they got clear, the entire ship was enveloped in a bright flash which was replaced with a fireball where the ship had been. Ron lowered his ears as he sadly said, "There goes everything we have worked so hard to achieve."

Seamus hugged the fox, there was no point in trying to cheer Ron up because the fact of the matter was Ron was right. This had been a hard blow to the empire. Yet somehow, they had emerged alive. It seemed their destiny to watch everybody around them die as they outlived everybody. Bane knew the pain and said, "The Empire stands and unless I miss my guess, its citizens are still doing better than before the Empire was formed. They are who we have fought for, not a newer, shinier ship. Be proud of that and your parts in keeping it that way. I suppose all of the scanner data from our ship was lost?" Ron chuckled and held up a small case as he bragged, "You obviously don't know me very well yet." Bane grinned and jabbed back, "Oh, I think I know you better than you realize." The two laughed, and while there was nothing funny about this situation, laughter was still a good thing. The four spent the next three hours getting to know each other. It turned out that Bane and Dasher were extremely close to the ones Seamus and Ron had known and likewise. It helped them feel more at ease but Bane held some important questions back, at least until they had a chance to shower and rest up a bit from this experience. The question remained to prey on his mind, of whether Dasher and Bane had a place in this universe or not.

Seamus gave a yip of delight as an Empire Battle Cruiser showed up on scanners. In a short time, they were brought aboard and informed that the ship had picked up the other pods as well. With no planet near, they had remained together to offer aid to each other, if needed. The Captain informed Seamus that the ship's engines had been pushed a bit too far in an effort to reach the doomed Ascendo's Legacy. Repairs had to be made before the return trip could be made. The four were grateful that this meant they could take a well deserved rest. The Captain informed him that the Captain's cabin had been cleared out and was at their disposal. Seamus thanked him and asked to be alerted if the situation changed but they all needed some food and rest. The four of them walked through the door of their quarters to see two double beds. Fresh clothes had been laid out and the necessary accessories for a detail shower had been made available to each of them. Dasher thought to himself that pushing the two together to make one big bed was a better idea but he kept that thought to himself for once.

Seamus sighed as he took a seat and untied his boots. His uniform was torn and filthy, clinging to his matted fur as if desperate not to come off. He looked up to see the others all sitting in various states of exhaustion. It had been a very trying day and far too much had been lost. Yet some remained. How many others could say, they had literally saved the universe? After removing his shoes, he walked over to Ron and began to inspect his robotic arm. Ron tried to shoo the fox away but Seamus told him to be good and just relax. He had built and installed it, so he was going to look it over, despite Ron's objections. Bane gasped out loud as Seamus took a knife from his pocket and began cutting away a charred piece of synthetic fur.

Ron looked up at an almost panicked Bane and laughed. Dasher couldn't see what Bane was seeing because Seamus was in the way. Ron turned his head to look at the alarmed wolf and said, "It's alright Bane. It's just fake fur that covers my prosthetic arm. I also have a prosthetic leg as well. They were lost in an accident." Bane nodded and admitted, "Sorry, it scared me is all. I wasn't expecting that as my Ron didn't have them. Maybe he does now but I will never know." He sighed with regret over not being there for his friend during a time of need. Seamus looked up after adjusting Ron's arm and said, "Ron, your arm is damaged but not badly. I've made some tweeks to make it work better. I noticed you had been favoring it a bit so I changed some settings to fix it for you." With that the green fox walked back to his seat and flopped tiredly into it. Dasher eyed the people in the room, trying to decide if he should speak up or not. There was not a good time to talk about it but now was as good as any.

He took a deep breath and began, "So... Where do you see Bane and I fitting in here? Seeing as we are... well, dead and all as well as not exactly the same ones you knew." Seamus took a deep breath. He had known this was coming but had really had wanted to put it off until he and Ron had discussed it. He caught Ron looking to him for an answer as he looked at Bane and Dasher. Seamus blew out his air and said, "Well, we would like a chance to get to know more about you both. It's a very difficult situation for all four of us. We can't just step into the lives we once had. None of us can step back into those roles, with all that has happened. Bane, when we lost you and Dasher, Ron and I only had each other. We have grown very close and we now live together, as you and I did before... well, before. I...I just couldn't sleep in our bed alone anymore. It hurt too much and I only had Ron to turn to. For security's sake, we added a new floor onto the capital building and have made it our residence. Ron and I aren't married but for all intents and purposes, we might as well be. There are other bedrooms that you can have. I would like you and Dasher to move in with us. It's the logical thing to do. That way, we can get to know each other and take things slowly. We will figure this all out but until we do... I'm not willing to lose any of you! If you decide to go your own ways, you can but that will be your choice. I... I don't think I could stand to lose you both again. Not now and maybe not ever. C-can you both be patient with us and give us time? As for the Empire? I will not turn the throne over to you. At least not until I've gotten to know you better. But with Bane again standing in front as he did, we can show we are ready to take on the universe again and strike fear in the hearts of those who have been plotting against us. Will you be our figurehead again, Bane?" Seamus looked over fondly to Dasher and asked, "Demon Cat? Can you get all these angry, scared or obstructionist representatives off our backs until we have figured things out? I know it is asking a lot as neither of you enjoyed the jobs but it is all I can think of, at the moment."

Dasher dropped his head and thought about it. He could just use his escape option, call his mage love John and go back to where he had been torn from, years ago. He could go home!" He was tired but as he looked from his friend Ron, who had given his arm and leg to the goal. Seamus, who had been human and their friend in the beginning but lost Bane and that life in becoming this green fox and earning Bane back, only to lose and regain him again.

Finally, there was Bane. The wolf looked older than he was and little wonder with all he had been thru. He had risen to every challenge the gods had thrown at him! Yet it wasn't because he wanted this power. He did what he had to, to help others and because it was the right thing to do. Not someone you would ever expect to know or call friend, much less because Dasher now knew and loved another such one already.

Seamus' eyes grew bigger and he moved to hold onto Ron, as if afraid of what he might hear. Dasher took a deep slow breath and let it out just as slowly. Dasher looked at each one again, in the eyes before he gave his usual grin and said, "I'm in. Just one question? I hope we are going to have a 'staff' meeting soon?" The release of tension only served to make them laugh longer and harder than any of them had for some time.

Seamus came over and gave Dasher a long hug that Ron eyed before Dasher's arm called him over too. Dasher put his arms around them both and smiled happily and throwing a wink to Bane.

Bane smiled softly, reflecting that his Seamus and Ron had never been romantically involved with each other. It seemed that this Seamus and Ron, very much were. It was only natural that they find their way to each other in his absence. It didn't feel right to try and just step back into the role he had had and maybe mess thing up for them all. Seamus was right, they needed time to figure out what was to come. Furthermore, what Seamus said made perfect sense. It was important to present a strong public image. That didn't mean giving the keys to the kingdom to a stranger, no matter how well you thought you knew them. He chuckled as he decided that Seamus was acting just as he would be had the situation been reversed. Bane looked over at Dasher who nodded his approval. "Seamus, I would love to take you up on all of that. I don't expect you to hand me back the throne. I would never ask that of you... and hell, even if you do offer it I still might not take it. I do not have the stomach for politics. In my own reality, I had hired people to deal with the bullshit so I didn't have to."

Seamus nodded and caught a faint smile from Ron. "For now, we will keep you two a rumor only. Of course, making you two top secret will draw the traitor's attention right away. A nervous spy is one who will trip himself up. I will arrange some meetings with my cabinet and have Bane and Dasher stand in for me. Meeting the hell hound and demon cat, face to face might make them betray themselves. Dasher? If you suspect anyone, point them out but keep them alive. We are going to find out who is behind all this, so we can stop this damned incessant warfare!" Bane gave a look of distaste and said, "I really hate to hear that we have those names here as well. I had hoped to escape it, once I realized our situation. He stood back up and told them, "I'm going to get a shower and wash the blood and dirt from my fur. I think it will make us all feel better, to be clean again. Then we can get dressed and go get something to eat."

Everyone nodded as Bane vanished into the bathroom, followed by the sound of running water. Seamus sighed and sank back in his chair. Dasher smiled at the lost fox. The cheetah chuckled softly and said, "As with Bane, I'm going to stick my nose into where it possibly doesn't belong. I can see this is a bit of an awkward situation for both of you. Since our deaths, you two have gotten really close. Now you have Bane and myself, who suddenly walk back into the picture. Strange as it is, we have all lost somebody who's face is here before us. Quite a shock, isn't it? The question becomes, who are we? The truth is for each of us to determine for them self. As for me, I accept both of you for who you resemble. The question is can you each do the same? There is a good, loyal and very hurt wolf standing in that shower and he could really use somebody to be there for him. Now I could go but of us all, who means the most to him? Consider it a first step. I'm not saying to jump him straight away but a shower would do you both good and it would give you two some time together. "

The fox looked down and sighed as Ron put a paw on his arm. With Seamus' attention, Ron told his love, "Seamus hun, you wouldn't be betraying anybody by going and getting in the shower with Bane. I think you need to go. Dasher is right, you need to face this before you can know what you feel. I won't love you any less for loving him, as long as I have my place in your heart too." Seamus nibbled his lower lip as he asked himself, what to do? He very hesitantly stood up and stretched. He then hesitantly walked into the bathroom with Bane and Ron shook his head and sighed. He might be gambling his heart away but until this was settled, it would distract them from their job.

Dasher leaned down and began to untie his boots. He was also covered from head to toe in a mixture of filth, blood, and other things, best not named. He sat them aside and wiggled his free furry toes, then began to work at the buttons of his shirt. He could call on additional strength but not energy and his tiredness showed. With frustration, he grabbed the fabric and simply ripped it from his body. Ron sighed softly and began to remove his clothes as well. The truth was there was no point in trying to clean them. They were a reminder of a day that everyone wanted to forget. Dasher smiled softly and said, "Do you remember signing up for all this? I don't." Ron chuckled out an answer, "Well let's see... In the past year I have lost my best friends, had to keep my remaining friend in one piece emotionally, gotten my arm and leg ripped off in an explosion that I caused, had a copy of my friends returned and lost a ship that I've been working toward for years now. So yes, you could say I've been through a lot...and it wasn't fair to call you a copy, I apologize." Ron lowered his ears and sighed deeply.

Dasher stood up, walked over to the fox and knelt down in front of him. Taking his paws in his, Dasher told him, "Ron, you are a living, breathing individual with thoughts, feelings, hopes, and desires. If you weren't rattled by all of this, I would have to question your sanity. To say this hasn't affected me would be a lie but then again reality is subjective isn't it. Ron smiled a bit, noting once more the cheetah always had a way of making him feel better. As Dasher stood up, a slight rise in the front of the cheetah's pants drew Ron's gaze. He knew what it was and wanted it but not before Seamus agreed it was alright.

... Meanwhile...

Seamus was blushing furiously as he knocked on the shower door. He knew what Bane looked like, so that wasn't it. What... what if he didn't want him that way now? Bane pulled his head out from under the streaming water and peeked out. The green he saw thru the frosted shower door, told him who it had to be but how should he act? Choosing to just be himself, Bane said, "Oh, Seamus! I didn't expect you to come in here just yet. What can I do for you?" Gone was the sure fox who had commanded their escape and ruled the Empire. In his place, cowered an unsure fox who could be broken by what came next or made whole again. Seamus timidly asked, "C-can I join you?" Bane smiled softly and held the door open as he answered, "Of course you can. Come on in, dear foxy." Seamus stepped in and murred as the warm water rolled over his tired, sore body. He began to release some of his tenseness and Bane smiled softly, looking the fox over. He was a spitting image of what had been left behind. It was difficult to grieve for a loss that your mind told you was right in front of you. The fox sighed and looked up to Bane as he said, "I'm really sorry that you've been torn away from your mate and friends. I know what that's like. You aren't my Bane and I'm not your Seamus but . . . Can we at least pretend, for tonight?" Bane smiled softly as he reached out and stroked the side of his love's face, just as he always did and said, "Have I really lost anyone? I see you standing here before me alive as ever, yet I know it isn't you. Its all very confusing, isn't it?"

Seamus sniffled and leaned lightly against the wolf's strong chest before confessing, "After your...death, I really lost myself. I didn't eat, I slept all the time... I was a real mess. Then there was Ron. He had lost his arm and leg trying to stop the evil Bane. We were both... broken. We only had each other to turn to and we found our way into each other's arms. Little by little, our need grew into love. It was slow at first, we took it moment by moment and then day by day. Ron was becoming lost in his work and I in trying to hold the empire together. Yet at the end of the day we were still in each others arms. I can't...I won't hurt him."

Bane was proud, realizing what the fox was saying. Bane said gently, "Seamus, let's have a hypothetical discussion. Let's say, for the sake of this conversation that you and I did share a bed again. Do you think I would ever hold you back from being in Ron's arms? Love isn't something that can only be shared between two people. Some are capable of loving many, each with the same passion and intensity as the next." Seamus smiled as his eyes teared slightly. Standing before him was Bane. The connection they shared was now as intense as it ever had been. It was what they both needed.

Ron smiled as he and Dasher sat listening to the conversation between the two. Ron signaled Dasher to be quiet and slowly got up to ease his way into the bathroom door. He peeked in, seeing them both holding each other. Ron gave a loud yip of laughter and yelled, "Would you two just fuck and get it over with! We need to get clean too, you know?" Seamus jumped and blushed deeply, feeling his sheath had swollen considerably. He felt Bane's hardness pressing against him and gods help him, he wanted it! They had simply been reacting to each others presence as they always had. Ron giggled and walked back into the bedroom, where Dasher was laying on the sofa, laughing. Dasher said, "Very subtle, fox." and he grinned, knowing he would have done it if Ron hadn't. But Ron had the authority to tell them to go ahead that the cheetah lacked. The fox walked over to him with a sway to his hips and tail, sitting gently in his lap. Dasher blinked as the fox wrapped his arms around him and lay his head on the cheetah's chest. Ron was going to have to set limits before Dasher would try anything more than being a friend. His standing in things was the only one that hadn't been dealt with yet. For Ron, this might not be his Dasher but it was Dasher nonetheless. Right now, that's all he needed.

Bane took the shampoo and squeezed some into his paw. Rubbing his paws together to distribute it before rubbing them against Seamus' back. He worked up a lather in the fur, caressing his love's back and pulling him against him. He breathed in the scent of his love, familiar and comforting. Seamus murred softly at the attention, the tip of his meat slipping from its furry home to press against his wolf's upper thigh. Bane was very careful to pay great attention to each detail, cleaning the fox as thoroughly as possible. Bane worked from the fox's chest to his stomach, then to his groin. The wolf gently washed the fox's balls, causing his meat to surge to full mast. Bane took hold of the fox's meat and stroked it gently, showing how much he cared for it and it's owner. Seamus moaned softly as he closed his eyes. He leaned back against the shower wall, holding his head up to expose his throat in surrender. Bane got on his knees and inhaled the fox's musk. His heart sped up with the wave of emotion it released. He licked the meat from base to the tip. Seamus moaned as the wolf took him into his maw and suckled gently. Seamus groaned as he humped gently into the wolf's loving maw. The fox's knot slowly swelled in Bane's paw until Bane stood up and turned around.

The fox lifted the wolf's furry tail higher, to expose Bane's offered hole. Bane whimpered in need as Seamus touched the center and gently applied pressure until he slid into Bane's warm hole. He moaned as he slid his entire length into the hot tail hole, wrapping his arms around Bane's chest, he humped into the wolf. Bane bucked back against Ron, moaning aloud. His meat bobbed up and down in time with Seamus' thrusts. Seamus got steadily harder and more insistent with his thrusts. His knot slowly inflated as he grew closer and closer. Seamus and Bane both nearly howled as Seamus slid his knot firmly into Bane's needy hole. Bane howled with pleasure feeling his fox's meat throbbing inside of him. Each throb signaling another spurt of cum! Seamus clung to the wolf as his entire body shook, his legs unable to do the whole job of holding him up just then. Bane's meat felt like it was going to split if it got any harder. Electric pleasure shot thru the wolf as Seamus' shaky paw settled into place around his knot firmly and squeezed! The wolf's seed splashed against the wall as his knees went weak. Bane rested against the shower wall, Seamus laying against his back. They panted, firmly tied together as they heard the shower door open. "I think that went well, don't you agree Dasher?", Ron said with amusement. Seamus blushed while Bane retorted with, "We will just see how long you two are in there. And Ron at least is as loud as Seamus. Now move aside and let us out? And Dasher? Scratch him just over the base of his tail. He will be putty in your paws from then on." Now Ron blushed and tucked his tail in slightly. Realizing he had been given permission to enjoy each other again, Ron raised his tail a little further than usual. The anticipated shower had become much more interesting.

Fox and wolf were both blushing as Ron and Dasher emerged from the shower. The pair were still knotted together because Bane kept tensing up around the fox's knot, causing more and more seed to spill into him. The sounds he and Dasher had made in the shower, hadn't helped things go down either. Ron grinned as he walked over to the bed containing the pair and pushed a second bed against theirs. He gently crawled up onto it and scooted against Seamus. Ron's already erect meat rubbed the fox's hole, causing him to moan softly. Ron applied pressure until the head of his meat slid inside the fox's clenching hole. Ron murred happily as he sank inch after inch into the already moaning fox. Ron humped gently, his meat firmly massaged thru every inch. He knew he couldn't last long but opportunities like this didn't come every day. Ron moaned as he slammed himself into Seamus, bettering the poor fox's already sensitized prostate. Seamus clung to Bane who now had a cheetah sucking gently on his meat and massaging his knot. Ron moaned as he slammed his knot deep into the fox and he bit Seamus' shoulder as his seed exploded into the fox's hole.

Ron panted as he relaxed and held Seamus who was now sound asleep. He chuckled as he heard Bane grunt and cum into the cheetah's coaxing maw. Dasher wiped his mouth and stepped back chuckling as he watched Bane close his eyes and go into a sound sleep. He took a seat on the sofa and just watched the three sleep. He chuckled as he watched Ron shiver and shake as his body emptied load after load into Seamus, cute little yiffs coming from his muzzle.

Seamus yawned and stretched his now fully satisfied body. He sniffed the air and smiled as he detected the familiar aroma of love in the air. On his back with Ron and Bane's heads on his chest, he gently freed himself and made his way over to Dasher. Sound asleep, his meat was still poking from its furry sheath and the fox grinned. He breathed on the musky package, stirring it slowly to a more erect state. Standing and turning around, he very carefully lined the tip up with his hole and lowered himself onto the cheetah's now hard meat. Dasher moaned as he opened his eyes. He gripped the fox's hips and began humping the fox's hot hole. Dasher moaned softly as each thrust brought him closer and closer to the sweet release that his body craved. He moaned loudly as he wrapped his arms around the fox and held him down as he thrust balls deep! Both moaned as the cheetah filled the fox up, adding to Ron's earlier contribution. Dasher held Seamus as he panted, letting the last dribbles drain into his lover.

Seamus opened his eyes to see both Ron and Bane grinning at him. He tried to close his legs at least and cover himself but was stopped as Dasher whispered to him, "Show your mates proudly. I'm not ashamed to have loved you and I know that they aren't either. Be a good little foxy and I will reward you." He blushed deeply as Dasher began stroking his now erect meat. Slowly his paw fondled the red erection, putting on a show for Bane and Ron as Seamus squirmed and moaned under his control. Bane and Ron made their way over to the pair. Ron began to suck on the fox's balls while Bane suckled on the top couple inches of his fox's meat. Dasher quickly gripped the knot and manipulated it with his paw as his voice urged, "Do it! Cum for us, little yiff toy. Feed the big horny wolf your creamy treat... The combination of all this attention quickly caused the fox cry out and let loose one last round of seed into the wolf's maw. Ron smiled as he watched Bane swallow and he met the wolf's lips with a kiss, tongue pressing against them and demanding he share.

Bane broke the kiss and looked into Ron's eyes. They were the same eyes that he had looked into for years. While the situation had changed a bit, he felt back home again. After separating and the cleanup that followed, Seamus made the decision to order food to be brought to their room. They needed more time together because when they got back to port, the real work would start.

Christopher Foxworth sat at his desk with his head in his paws. He was the director of the Empire's Central Intelligence Agency. He had been briefed that the Ascendo's Legacy had been attacked. More than half its crew had been lost and the emperor had been injured. To make matters worse, the instrument of that destruction was a bomb developed by the empire at a black site. It was classified above top secret and its details stored on a non-networked database that was so protected, only Emperor Ron himself could access it! The implications of this were beyond bad. Not only did they have a serious security breach but a currently unknown enemy had their hands on a weapon more devastating than the omega bomb. The emperor had arrived back at the city and had gone directly to his residence to rest. A meeting was coming shortly and he dreaded having to look the emperor in the eyes after a failure of this magnitude.

He didn't need reminding that it was his job to prevent things such as this. Every member of the government had a high level background check performed before being hired. All classified material was protected by several layers of security which included bio metrics. The caliber of spy to get thru all that, showed that someone was using the best of the best. The first thought was that the humans had been behind it. There were several problems with that theory. First off, to acquire the plans would have taken a massive amount of resources. Resources that the humans just didn't have. Then, even if the empire had handed the human faction the blueprints to the bomb, building it required yet more resources that once again the humans just didn't have and would be hard pressed to acquire.

The bottom line was that even though the human resistance had launched the attack, somebody else was behind this. The single greatest breach of empire security had happened right under his nose! He looked down at the data pad he had been working on. It contained a draft of his resignation and he intended to hand it to the emperor personally.

The good thing was that another ship had been dispatched as soon as the control center picked up the explosion on long range scanners. The fox looked over the images that had been sent back during the rescue. The ship itself had been nearly destroyed, despite it being the best ever made. Most of the surviving crew had been hurt badly and what information he had collected of the battle painted a very dark picture. It had been an entire day since he had returned but the Emperor had ordered a meeting, first thing in the morning. Christopher had come in early to draft his resignation in preparation. He sighed deeply, stood up and walked slowly out of his office, data pad and presentation in hand. Reaching the Emperor's office, he was surprised to find all the other participants waiting outside. It was unusual for the emperor to keep them waiting, they were usually welcomed inside right away.

Bane paced back in forth in his office. Rather an office that was almost identical to his old one. Seamus chuckled as he walked into the office from its' bunker, followed by Dasher who had now been outfitted with the old Dasher's battle claws. Bane objected, "Seamus I really don't think this is a good idea. This isn't my universe and I'm not Bane!" Seamus chuckled out, "Bane, you are so close that I can't tell a difference. You had enough practice being Bane the last couple days, or do I need to haul you back to bed to refresh your memory? Anyway I'm not asking you to assume the throne, only to hold this meeting as you would normally do. Sit in the chair and turn your back to the door. Dasher, you sit at the head of the meeting table beside Bane and remain quiet until everyone has sat down. Easy enough, right? The very rumor that you're back will cause all the empire's enemies will think twice about any further attacks. I am counting on this buying us some much-needed time." Bane nodded as he and Dasher took their seats and turned their backs as had been instructed. Seamus grinned like a foxy Machiavelli as he walked back into the bunker and sealed it. Ron was sitting in there already grinning with popcorn and a live feed of the office, projected in midair before them.

After being signaled, the receptionist said, "The Emperors will see you now." and pressed the door release. It hissed open and the somber group filed into the office. There were no other chairs, so they stood in front of the Desk. No one seemed willing to break the silence so Christopher spoke up, "Y-your majesties, we are here for the meeting as commanded."

Seconds went by in silence as Bane grinned. While he still wasn't convinced this was a good idea... it would be very fun. Bane forced a serious expression on himself and slowly turned in his chair. As he faced the group, there was nothing but gasps and cut off outcries to be heard. The wolf grinned a toothy grin that contained no amusement and sent shivers down everybody's spine. There was a second gasp as Dasher turned around and placed a battle claw equipped paw on the desk. His grin promised death, only waiting Bane's order to be unleashed!

The wolf pounded the desk with his fist as he roared out, "Three months! I've been gone for three months and in that time, you allow the empire to come under this severe of a threat? With my dying breath, I took the scavengers down and this is how you repay that gift?" Dasher stood and moved behind the wolf, placing a paw on his shoulder as if to hold the wolf back from attacking them. Christopher was the first to speak up, stammering, "H-how are you alive? Its just not possible! You can't have survived that!" Bane laughed darkly and grinned as he replied, "Heaven didn't want me and hell couldn't hold me. It is getting tiresome, having to keep resurrecting myself. Dasher and I have some revenge to take for killing us. Now let's begin. Somebody had better have an explanation as to how and why the humans got such a devastating weapon?"

Christopher stepped forward and laid his data pad before Bane as he said, "Sir, I take full responsibility for our failure to prevent this. I offer you my resignation." Bane shook his head and growled, "NO! You will not get out of this that easily. We face this together and I expect results, not excuses. We will determine who did this... then I will give him to the Demon Cat as a toy to play with and gentlemen, he doesn't play nice." All gulped as they considered the implications and Christopher continued, "Obviously, the humans don't have the talent or resources to pull off an operation like this. They had outside help and backing at the very least. I know of no one in the Empire, so unhappy with things that they would have reason to destroy us from within. We have had many citizens visit the capital but we haven't had any high level staffing changes in quite some time. The Military always has new recruits but their security is tight and they keep track of personnel, right down to when they drop pants to take a leak. I'm leaning towards the responsible party still being here. I request permission to launch a full investigation starting with interviews of any employees with top secret clearance." Bane nodded and told him, "Granted... make sure you talk to everybody though. The capital city goes into lock down as far as anyone leaving the planet before being questioned and cleared. No vacations, sick leave... I don't even want anyone to die before they have been questioned and granted permission!" The white fox nodded as he lowered his ears. If they failed this time, they might never get another chance to learn who was responsible.

Seamus chuckled as he watched what was going on. This stunt assured that a rumor of Bane's return would spread like wildfire throughout the empire and beyond. This in of itself wouldn't stop whatever was going on but it would delay it as they had to access this development. The ultimate problem was not the humans that launched the attack, it was finding whoever planned and funded it. There was an unknown organization out there and they knew as much about them now as they did before the attack. Still though, it wasn't all bad. The green fox smiled as he thought of their love making on the ship. At least some things hadn't changed.
