Black Knights: prologue
Leon murred, cuddling into his sleeping brother's back. He looked so cute to him; scruffy copper hair that waved and curled randomly, big hazel eyes, and white speckles on his red maw. He rubbed the younger fox's white tummy, licking the back of his neck and pressing his erection into him. Maybe they could love again before he left, maybe he could see his brother's blushing face as he made love to him, maybe-
An annoying buzzing sound disrupted his train of thought. he turned around and beat it into silence. When he turned back around though, his little brother had woken up and was looking at his erection with interest. "Good morning to you, big brother." he said in that cute, loveable voice that most ten year old boys had. "excited?"
"Not really, Jason. Not really." Leon sighed, depressed. truthfully he was hoping that he would have left before his brother woke up.
"Why?"
"Well..." Leon wrapped his arms around his little brother again, giving him a kiss on the maw before continuing. "You remember the Soldier Law?"
Jason laid his ears flat. The law had taken their father and mother, leaving only he and his brother to fend for themselves. "Yeah..."
"And you remember what age that all citizens must apply?" the older fox was tearing up, tightening his grip on his little brother. The law stated that all able-bodied citizens of Ashmain must apply for draft into the military and fight at least three battles before they could even apply. although the average life expectancy for a soldier was only about thirty seconds after stepping off the transport onto one of the shores of Eldom; their 'rival' kingdom. So the whole thing was a death sentence if you got picked.
It wasn't much of a possibilty, only about six percent of those who apply got in, but the little town they lived in had horrible luck. Three of Leon's best friends were picked and died within the life expectancy.
"Y-yes." the younger fox was beginning to understand that his brother had to leave "S-sixteen..."
"And you know what day it is?"
"y-your sixteenth b-bir..." Jason broke down and sobbed into his older brother's chest "D-dont go, big brother *choke* dont leave m-me..."
A hard blow to the young canid's neck knocked him out, silencing him.
Leon left before he had a chance to cry.
