#5 of Fire Down Below

Recently I started working on a new tale involving my adorably nerdy fox Adam, and the lioness he's always had a crush on, Sarah. I'm not yet sure when it will be done, given all my other writing projects, I thought I'd post what I have so far. Posting it in this folder for now, and the completed version will be added to the Curious Times folder.

In this part of the tale, Sarah gets Adam to give her a little sneak preview over webcam, of what she's looking forward to getting her hands on soon...And, Sarah teaches her younger brother why it's never a good idea to try and blackmail your sister..


"I can't believe you're grounded."

"I know, I know." Sarah sighed, flattening back her ears. "Trust me, Adam, I'm way more pissed about it than you."

The young lioness sprawled on her bed, early in the warm summer evening. The last of sunset's fiery radiance shone in fading red-gold streams through her blinds, soon to be transmuted to purple twilight. Sarah's head and shoulders were propped up against an entire mountain of mountain of pillows. A platoon of various plushies bordered it. Her laptop rested against belly, with a video chat program running. A bespectacled fox stared by at her from the monitor, glimpses of his own bedroom visible behind him.

The fox's black ears drooped, shifting his glasses against his red-furred muzzle. "I knooooow." Adam heaved an exaggerated sigh. "It's just not fair she sprang it on you guys like that."

"That's what pisses me off the most!" Sarah thumped her palm against her blankets. "It happened like, a week ago, and Mom's just now punishing us? It's like she knew you and I were planning to hang out this weekend, and she just waited to screw us over."

"I knoooooow." Adam gave another sigh, leaning back in his desk chair. A bit more of the nerdy fox's shirt came into view. Dark blue, with a cartoon dragon in the cage on it. "And my house is empty all weekend!"

Sarah scowled, lashing her tufted tail. "Trust me, Adam, I know." She leaned towards her computer, lowering her voice. "I wanted naked fox time."

Adam giggled, his ears perked. "Yeah, you said. And I could totally do it, too!" He waved a hand, spinning in his chair, his room whirling by in the background. "The house is literally empty. My mom's on a business trip, Jerrod's at college, and Melissa's staying at Amanda's for a few days."

"I know, buddy, I know." Sarah folded her arms, grumbling.

"It's literally empty!" Adam lifted his voice, calling out. "Is there anyone home? No? Just me then? In that case, Melissa sucks!" He beamed at the screen. "See? No one's here! It's literally emp-"

"Yes, Adam!" Sarah laughed, holding her hand up to the screen to shut him up for a moment. "I know what empty means."

"Sorry." Adam splayed his ears, leaning his head back against the chair. "It just would have worked out so perfect. I was happy enough you just wanted to hang out and watch a movie! But then mom's work thing came up, and Amanda invited Melissa over, and..."

"And then I suggested naked fox time, and you got a little chubby?" Sarah stuck her tongue out at her cam.

"More like a raging erection." Adam scratched the tufted fur of his neck with a sheepish laugh. "I think you know I've...been hoping to do that again. It was...umm...really fun, last time."

"Yeah, it was." The lioness licked her muzzle. Last time she was alone with the geeky young fox with the life-long crush on her, she'd gotten to see two guys naked in one night. Though if she was honest with herself, the time she spent with Adam was even more fun than what had happened with his friend James and the other girls. "But you're only saying that cause I jacked you off."

Adam gulped, the inside of his vulpine ear reddening before he flattened them. He gave a shy smile, nodding. "Yeah, you jacked me off." He licked his nose. "That's...kinda fun to say outloud, actually." He took a breath, then shouted it out. "Sarah jerked me off!"

"Shit, Adam!" Sarah pressed her hand over her laptop's speakers. "I have you on speakers, you know."

"Oh, right." Adam shifted his position in his chair. "Wait, I thought everyone was gone at your place, too?"

"Mom and Dad are out of town, yeah." Sarah sat up a little straighter against her pillows. "And Sally's sleeping over at her friends. But Max is still here. He's grounded too, right?"

"Oh, yeah." Adam scrunched his muzzle. "I guess we don't him to hear me yelling that. But...I mean, I think he knows, so..."

"He does." The lioness shrugged. "But if he hears you shouting about it, he's gonna get mad and wanna sack tap you again for it or something."

"Pbbbttt." Adam rolled his eyes. "Not if I sack tap him first!" He cracked his knuckles, a smile parting his tapered muzzle. "I'm basically the king of sack tapping, lately."

Sarah giggled, shaking her head. "If you say so, dork."

"Besides, I still owe him one for..." The fox grimaced, ears splayed. "Melissa and him...I mean, I think they did, right?"

"I'm pretty sure she did the same thing for him that I did-"

"I don't need the details!" The geeky fox gave a snort. "But I'm definitely gonna whack him one there, for it."

"Yeah, well, he said he was gonna do the same thing to you when he found out about us." Sarah shifted her laptop onto the bed, curling her tail into her lap to tease the fur tufting its tip. "Is that like, some weird bro code thing?" She deepened her voice into a gruff, faux-masculine snarl. "Bro, you got a handie from my sis, bro? Bro! I'm gonna whack your sack, bro, and then we'll be cool, bro!"

Adam burst out laughing, shaking his head. "No! Well...Not like that, anyway." He leaned towards his laptop, lowering his voice to a playful whisper. "But I did totally get a handie from his sister."

"Oh, you did, huh?" Sarah rolled onto her side, propping her muzzle on her palm. "You lucky little dork!"

"No kidding." Adam tilted his head, his smile turning to something more shy, but genuine. "She's basically the best lioness, ever."

"Awwww." Sarah glanced away, her ears warming. "Thanks, Adam. You're a pretty great fox, too. For a bratty little nerd."

"Heh. Thanks." Adam swallowed, fighting back a nearly overwhelming smile. Eventually, he rested his head against his chair, giving a long sigh. "I guess we'll get to hang out alone together another time, huh?"

"Yeah, we will." Sarah flicked her tail against the bed. "Maybe you'll even luck out, and I'll feel so bad about leaving you hanging tonight, that I'll slip into your room sometime when I'm visiting Melissa and give you a really quick pity handie while she's in the kitchen, or something."

Adam nearly chocked on his tongue. He coughed a few times, rocking in his chair. "R-really?"

"Might be kinda fun." Sarah shrugged, trying to play it coy. "Just unbutton your pants, let it out, and...do it really fast." She curled a hand in front of the cam, and stroked it against the air in swift, steady motions. "Think that would do it in a hurry?"

Adam gulped again, squirming. "It's...practically doing it now."

"Oh?" Sarah perked a single ear, acting as if she hadn't expected such a reaction. "Are you getting a chubby, Adam?"

"Uhhh..." Adam glanced down at himself. "Not so much getting one, as...totally have one."

The lioness giggled, sitting up straighter again. "That was quick! Even for you."

"Yeah, well...Let's just say it was looking forward to tonight, too." The fox reached down out of sight, adjusting himself. "I think it was hoping to be seen again, actually. You're..." He rubbed the back of his neck. "The only girl who's seen it, yanno. I mean, still, even now."

"So it's still only been seen by a girl, that one time I played with it?" Sarah flicked her tail back and forth, increasingly irritable about being stuck at home. "You know, I'm strangely honored by that. If I came out, I'd definitely let you show it to me, again."

The geeky fox smiled at his came, his black furred ears perked. "Really?"

"Mhm!" Sarah tilted her head. "Honestly, it'd be really fun to get to see it when I don't have to worry about getting caught."

"Yeah, it would." Adam shifted his weight again, trying to get comfortable.

"I mean, originally, I was just thinking about calling in that favor you owe me." Sarah smirked. "But after that, since you'd already be naked-"

"I mean, if you wanna see it, I could, you know, show it." Adam's words accelerated, bumping into each other in a nervous race. "Right now, I mean, it's not the same, but, if you wanted, I mean, I don't mind, I could show it, and..." He paused, blinking. "Wait, what favor?"

"You wanna show it on your cam?" Sarah clucked her tongue. "Horny little nerd."

Adam flattened his ears. "Only if you wanted to see it."

The lioness licked her muzzle, smiling at him. "Alright, show it! Balls too."

Adam gulped, his eyes widening. "R-Really?"

"Yeah, if you want too." Sarah gave a playful growl. "Come on, ya little nerd, show me your fox chubby!"

"Okay!" Nervous excitement bubbled in Adam's voice as he pushed his desk chair back, away from his desk and laptop until the rest of him was in view. His blue pajama pants matched the color of his shirt. A noticeable bulge marked the front of them. He hooked his thumbs into his waistband. "Erm...ready?"

"Yup!" Sarah stared at the screen, waiting. Her stomach tightened.

Adam lifted his hips away from the chair, then tugged down the front of his pajamas in a single, quick motion. His tapered, crimson vulpine erection sprang into view, jutting up at the ceiling. The young fox's balls hung beneath it, two plump, white-furred grapes hanging quite loose in the warm summer air. Sarah sucked in a breath at the sight, her heart thumping in wicked excitement.

"Okay..." Adam peered down at himself, his bushy tail twitching against the loop at the back of his pajamas. "Now it's been seen by a girl for the second time."

"It sure has." Sarah pointed at the screen, though she wasn't sure how well it would register. "And so have your balls. They look really dangly, right now."

"They are." Adam held his pajamas down with one hand, nudging his balls with a finger. They bobbled. "It's pretty warm in here. I should probably turn the AC down, actually. Do you..." He nudged them again, his voice wavering. "Do you like...seeing my stuff?"

"You know I do."

"Which...which is more fun to see?" Adam shifted his hands, holding his pajamas down with the other. "The boner, or the balls?"

"All of it." Sarah shrugged. "I dunno, it's...really fun and, I guess, exciting to see a boner. But, it's sort of...fascinating to see the balls just..." She waved her hand. "Hanging there."

"Heh...yeah, they do that." He hooked his pajamas under his balls, making the fat grapes bulge out against the white furred pouch. "I remember last time you made me like, walk around, so they could see how they moved."

"Yeah!" Sarah laughed at the delightfully naughty memory. "That was really fun. I kinda wanted to do something like that again, tonight."

"R-really?" Adam set his hands against his legs, nearly framing his vulpine genitals.

"Yeah! What did you think I meant when I teased you about naked fox time?"

"I dunno..." Adam shrugged, tugging at his pajamas. "Kind of like before, I guess?"

"Are you uncomfortable?" Sarah leaned back. "You can put it away, if you want. Or...or are you just resisting the urge to masturbate?"

"Uh...mostly the second one." Adam wrung his hands, as if just to keep them occupied. "I haven't done that for like, two days."

Sarah gave a mock gasp. "Two whole days? How did you survive?"

"Yeah, yeah, shut up." Adam leaned his head back, which slightly propped up his vulpine erection. "So hey, what was that favor thing you mentioned?"

"Well. This might make your boner go back down, but....that's okay." Sarah sat up on her bed, with the laptop resting on her lap. "Cause, it's weird but I just realized, I've never seen your sheath. Like, when you're not hard."

"Oh...did you want to?" Adam glanced down, then tugged his pajamas up, his balls vanishing and his erection visible once more only as a bulge in the fabric. "Lemme...try not to think about and maybe it'll go away. Wait, why would that favor make it go down?" He scrunched up his muzzle, scooting closer to the camera again. "Did you want me to do your homework for you, or something? Cause you're right, that's not very sexy, but I'm happy to if you want."

"No, ya little dork." Sarah found herself half-wishing he'd kept his bits out. She had to admit, it was awfully fun to get to see them now and then. "Remember how last time you got naked for me, and I told you I found out you spied on me that time I was changing?"

"Oh..." Adam looked away, his shoulder slumping and ears drooping. "Sorry again about that. I...I really shouldn't have-"

"No, you shouldn't have. But it's okay. I already told you I forgive you. But..." She tilted her head, wondering if he even remembered the offer he made. "Do you remember what else you offered to let me do, to make it up to me?"

"Let you do?" The fox cocked his head, a single ear up. He fidgeted with his glasses a moment. "I don't really remember...oh...Oooh." His eyes widened. "Right. Yeah. That."

"You said I could kick you in the nuts, from behind." Sarah leaned forward to smirk directly into her cam. "While you're naked."

Adam shuddered, cupping himself out of sight. "Yeah...that's definitely helping it go back down. That would really hurt."

"I know." Sarah jabbed a finger at her screen. "But you spied on me and saw me naked, from behind. So I owe you a kick in the nuts, from behind. Fair's fair, right Adam?"

"I did agree to it, yeah." Adam gave a sigh.

"There's my dork." Sarah smiled at him, holding up a little fox plushy. "This is you." She hugged it, happy to see it made Adam laugh. "See, I was gonna call in that favor tonight, because...well, after you felt better, you'd already be naked. And then I was gonna make you feel a lot better."

"You...you were?"

"Mmmmmhmmmm." Sarah murmured, lowering her voice. "When your balls felt better, the house would be empty, and you could just..." She dropped her voice into a throaty whisper. "Be naked for me, all...night...long."

Adam's jaw dropped. For a moment, he just stared at her. Then he managed a sheepish smile. "And...there's my boner, back."

"Oh, you like that idea, huh? Wandering around your house, totally naked..." She walked her fingers across her laptop. "With me watching you, the whole time. Cuddling you. Jerking you off again."

The fox nodded. "Uh huh!" His muzzle twisted up a moment. "Well, not the kicking part, but...honestly, it sounds worth it. I'd be...pretty nervous, but...pretty happy to be naked in front of you, all night."

"I thought you would." Sarah sighed, thumping her head back against her pillows. "I kinda...wanted to see how long it stays knotted, after. And...how long until you can do it again."

"Ooooh my god." Adam dropped his face into his heads with an agonized groan. "Why'd you have to get grounded tonight?"

Sarah grit her teeth. The nerdy fox's frustration was almost palpable, and one she certainly shared. Sarah had been thinking about getting a chance to have him naked all week long, only for her plans to be foiled by a totally unfair punishment. Of course, with her mom out of town... She flattened her ears in thought, setting her laptop aside. Sarah stood up, pacing a few moments, ignoring Adam's questions. She wouldn't get in any more trouble if her parents didn't know she'd snuck out, right? And they weren't home, so...there wasn't really any way for them to find out, as long as her brother didn't tattle.

"Fuck it!" Sarah turned back towards her laptop, to find a very confused fox staring back at her.

"Fuck what?"

"Fuck being grounded." Sarah collected her phone, and checked it. It was only at fifty percent battery, but she crammed it into her pocket, anyway. "Do you still have that charger that fits my phone?"

"Yeah." Adam furrowed his brow. "Why?"

"Cause I'm coming over."

"Really?" Adam perked up in an instant. His excitement was soon to fade, however. "Wait, aren't you gonna get in like, huge trouble, and never be allowed out of the house again?"

"Only if Max tells on me." She glanced towards her doorway. Unless he'd moved, her younger brother was watching TV downstairs. Which meant she couldn't slip out without him knowing. "Which he won't, unless he wants his kitten makers squished like grapes."

"Ow." Adam cringed, rubbing himself. "That made _mine_hurt."

"Aww, don't worry, you adorable little dork." Sarah smiled at him. "I'll make them feel better."

Adam snorted, rolling his eyes. "Sounds like you're gonna make them feel worse, first."

Sarah only laughed, waggling her fingers at the screen in playful wave. "See you in like, thirty minutes."

"Okay!" Adam mimicked her wave. "Good luck with Max."

"Thanks." Sarah shook a finger at him. "You better not be knotted when I get there."

Before he could reply, Sarah shut her laptop, and headed for her door.

*****

The walk from Sarah's house to Adam's only took about ten minutes, but the lioness wanted to squeeze in a quick shower first. She grabbed some clean clothes from the laundry room and slipped into the bathroom, then stripped off while the water warmed up. Sarah glanced at her naked, golden furred body in the mirror, hoping Adam wouldn't mind if she still had damp fur. The walk in the warm outside air should help most of it dry.

Sarah stepped into the shower and pulled the curtain shirt. As hot water slicked her fur down against her body, part of her wished she'd told Adam she'd be there in an hour. Given what the fox just let her stare at, she could have used a little extra 'personal time' in the shower. Still, if things went right, Sarah knew she'd get to see, and do, plenty more. Maybe she'd even ask for Adam's 'assistance.' Then again, she wasn't quite sure if she was ready to take that particular step with him. But, there was a first time for everything, right?

The lioness worked a few handfuls of shampoo into her fur, lathering herself up. Sarah worked her fingers through the lather in quick but thorough circles, starting with her ears and her head, and down the rest of her body. She resisted the urge to pause anywhere in particular, and soon rinsed herself clean. Sarah shut the water off, and scrubbed herself vigorously with a couple of towels. When her fur was as dry as she could get it in a hurry, she hung the towels up and got dressed. She went with a simple pair of black shirts and a powder blue t-shirt, casual but also comfortable for the warm evening.

Just as Sarah expected, she found Max seated on the red-wine hued couch, watching TV. The younger lion looked fixated on some weird anime show, colorful images reflected on his glasses. Sarah went to the kitchen, and snatched up a space house key, jamming it into her pocket. There was cash on the counter for them to order food, but she left it for Max. Turning back to the living room, she paused, trying to decide how best to place things.

"I'm going out, Max!" Sarah decided to be as blunt and casual about it, as she could. If she was lucky, by the time he remembered they weren't supposed to leave the house, she'd be long gone. "There's money on the counter if you get hungry. See you later!"

"Okay, see ya!" The younger lion waved a hand in her direction without looking up.

Sarah smiled as she walked to the door. That was easier than she expected.

"Hey, Sarah, wait!"

The lioness flattened back her ears. Spoke too soon, she thought.

"We're not supposed to go anywhere." Max hopped up off the sofa, hurrying to intercept her. "Mom says we gotta stay here." Before she knew it, the geeky little lion was standing in front of her. He poked her chest with a finger. "Especially you. Cause you're like, super grounded."

"And you're like, super annoying." Sarah tried to push him out of the way. "Now move it."

The push left the smaller lion staggering, but he quickly scrambled right back in front of her, standing between her and the front door. Max was a couple years younger than her, and even with a recent growth spurt, still only came up almost to Sarah's chin. A patchwork mane was just starting to come in around his neck. Black-rimmed glasses perched on his muzzle. His slender, slightly gangly frame left his black and crimson pajamas looking extra baggy. Max flattened his ears back in what Sarah suspected was a vain attempt to look stern. Or at least, something mildly akin to stern.

"Mom says you can't go anywhere." He shook a finger at her, then adjusted his glasses. "And if I let you go anywhere, and mom finds out, then _I'm_gonna get grounded next. So...yanno. You gotta stay home."

Sarah gave him a mock salute. "Yessir, Warden, back to my cell, Warden!"

Max huffed, rolling his eyes. He folded his arms over his chest, tufted tail swishing. "I'm just sayin', Sarah. If you get caught sneaking out, we're both gonna get in trouble."

"And I'm only gonna get caught if you decide to open your big mouth and start blabbin'." Sarah thumped her finger against his chest, the same way he'd done to her. "Which I'm sure you won't, because siblings don't snitch on each other, right?"

"I mean..." He rubbed the back of his neck, splaying his leonine ears. "Sally does."

"That's just because Sally likes getting you in trouble." Sarah sighed and gave him a little shove, pushing him back against the door. "Look, Max, I'm leaving. So, get out of the way before I knee your little kitten marbles up around your ears." She flattened her own ears back, growling. "That's the only warning I'm giving you." She lifted her knee a little. "And them."

"Okay, okay!" Max hunched over, whining. He put his hands against Sarah's knee and pushed it back down. "And I don't have frickin' kitten marbles!"

"That's not what Melissa said." Sarah lowered her leg, smirking at her younger brother. "She told me they turned out to be even smaller than she expected."

"She told you we-" Max sucked in a breath and clamped his jaw shut. "Damn it!"

Sarah just laughed, folding her arms. "We try to tell each other everything. And she said they were the smallest little pair of kitten marbles she's ever seen."

Max narrowed his eyes, growling through sharp teeth. His muzzle crinkled, moving his glasses. "Liar."

"Yeah, okay. I didn't actually want or get any details." She tilted her head to the side. "Now move on."

"Fine, fine." Max sighed, then pushed his glasses back up his muzzle. "I'll let you go to...shall I assume you're going to see Adam?"

Sarah just glared at him. "Fine detective work, poindexter."

The younger lion snorted, then giggled. "No one says poindexter anymore, Sarah. 1972 called, it wants its stereotypical nerd insults back."

"Ugh." Sarah rubbed her muzzle. "Move, or I'm moving you."

"I'll let you go to Adam's..." Max waggled a single finger at her. "But if you don't want me to accidentally tell mom you slipped out of the house...it's gonna cost you."

Sarah's eyes widened, and she straightened up, her tail flicking in irritation. "Are you fucking serious, Max?"

Max beamed at her, then held out a single hand, palm pads up. "Twenty bucks. I know you got it. And, then I'll have enough to pick up Dragon Odyssey XII when it finally releases next week."

Sarah just glared down at geeky younger lion, grinding her teeth. He was blackmailing her? The nerve of that little brat, she thought. That was it. Sarah was fed up with this. She'd warned him, after all. Sarah stepped forward and kneed the younger lion in the balls as hard as she could, trying to lift him off his feet. Max's feline nuts bulged out against his pajamas, trapped between his body and her knee, giving Sarah a better idea of their large-grape size and slightly rounded shape. The younger lion's toes came off the ground for a second or two, eyes bugging out, muzzle gaping open. Sarah dropped her knee back down and Max crumpled to the floor in a sobbing heap of pain she'd never understand.

"Aawwwwwwhhh!" Max sucked in a breath, curling up, then let it right back out in another wailing sob. "Awwrrrhhhhhhh! My balls, my baaaaaaalls!"

Sarah burst out laughing, shaking her head. "Aww, that was a good one, huh Max? Don't think I've gotten you that good in a while!"

Max rolled around on the floor, blue eyes crossed and tear-filled behind his glasses. He clutched himself in both golden-furred hands, rocking back and forth, moaning. "Ooooooooh! My balls, my balls, oooooh, my baaaalls!"

Sarah fished her phone out of her pocket, and quickly took a few pictures of the squirming dork. Then she switched it to record, and took some video of Max's writhing and moaning, too. Then she sent it all in message to her friend Melissa, with the caption, "Got him good!" She tucked her phone away again, folding her arms.

"For the record, Max?" Sarah nudged at his hands with her shoe, causing him to curl up as if to protect his aching lion testicles from further attack. "I'd never snitch on you, if you were grounded and wanted to sneak out to see Melissa or whoever. And I sure as hell wouldn't blackmail you."

Max rolled away from her, then back towards her, then squirmed onto his belly. He hoisted his rump up in the air, cupping himself in both hands. The young lion's tail curled limp over his back, and his muzzle was pressed to the floor, half-parted and nearly drooling. "Uuhhhnnnnn....God, Sarah...you really...got me bad...that time..."

"And I warned you, didn't I? I warned you, and you still tried to blackmail me." She crouched down to stroke one of his flattened ears. "Just think! You could have spent the night playing video games, watching TV, goofing off...hell, you coulda skyped Melissa and maybe she'd even want you to show her your marbles again." She patted his head, and gave a mock sigh. "Now you'll spend the night on the floor, waiting for them to finally stop aching." She popped back up, laughing. "Oh well. I tried to warn you. There's pizza money on the counter. And just so you know...if you even think about telling mom I snuck out?" Sarah went behind him while his butt was still raised, and tapped the toe of her shoe against his hands. "I'll have an awfully long time to spend practicing my technique, while I'm stuck in the house with you. Got it?"

Max squeaked and flopped over, curling up again. "Got it!"

"Good boy." Sarah leaned down to pat his head. "I'll be back whenever I'm back. When you can walk again, get some ice for your kitten marbles."

"I don't have..." Max managed to lift a hand away from his crotch, just long enough to flip Sarah off. "Kitten marbles!"

Sarah just laughed as she went to the door. "Uh huh. Later, Max. Enjoy your aching nuts."
