#1 of FCTR


Okay! I'm new to this site and this is my first time submitting a story, so could you please be gentle.....with the comments. Anyway. I want to start off by giving a description of the two main characters.

Ikato: A 15 year old anthro arctic fox that has silver tips at the top of his ears and tail. He's shorter than most people, he stands at about 5'5. Ikato is a shy person, usually only speaking when spoken to. He tries his best to obey people who have authority over him so he tries not to look people in the eyes, but most people take that as a sign of disrespect.

Hiroto: A 17 year old anthro wolf, black with red accents. He's a strong authority figure standing at almost 6'1". He's fairly loud and opinionated, but keeps a softer tone reserved for the times when he's trying to work someone over. He has a bad habit of looking permanently angry.

Nothing left now to say but.....enjoy

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

A guard walked inside of a dark room where Ikato was, he was in the 'Holding Room'; a room where they kept all of the new slaves that had yet to be given a cage, or slaves that were getting new cages because they had outgrown their old ones. The guard was a tall husky anthro who almost always had a cruel smile on. The guard took out a leash and collar and put it around Ikato's neck. Ikato put up almost no effort to try and get away. As the guard pulled on the leash, Ikato stood up and moved himself so that he was beside the husky. The guard started walking toward the cages with Ikato following obediently behind him. Almost without warning, the guard punched the vulpine in the stomach, making him lose his breath almost instantly and making him fall to the floor. "What do you think you're doing?! On all fours!" He yelled at Ikato, his usual cruel smile on his face. Ikato had no time to catch his breath as the guard pulled on his leash. He obediently stood on all fours and starred at the ground, his ears were low. "That's more like it." The husky led Ikato to his new cage; it was almost a regular cage, except that it had a giant pillow in the middle. The guard led the fox inside of the cage and took off his leash. "Now, you know what to do." The guard hissed. Without complaint, the fox crawled onto the pillow and had his neck close to the bars. Meanwhile, the guard went behind the small vulpine and secured a lock around his neck; the lock was connected to the cage, making sure that Ikato could only go so far in his cage. "There you go you little slut." The husky said as he walked away. Calling the slaves sluts was a way of degrading, something that was used a lot.

The building that sold the slaves had no established name, but ti was a building known by almost everyone. The building was a tall grey building in the middle of the city, people could easily recognize it since it was, in fact, the tallest building in the city.

Hiroto walked into the halls of the building talking to a female anthro cat, "So you guarantee me I can find a slave that I will be completely satisfied with?" "Of course Sir." Hiroto continued to walk down the hall, observing the many cages. "Do you have any fresh ones? Submissive and young?" Hiroto was one of the powers in the town and most people knew it, his family was the most powerful, and he had a taste for the young and the beautiful. "Get me those three and have them lined up for observation." He waved to a few of the cages, Ikato's was the one in the middle, "I only want one in the end."

As he slowly started to drift to sleep, his chain that was connected to his neck was roughly pulled; it was another guard, come to take Ikato and three other slaves to the observation room. Ikato felt his chain being taken off, relieved that he could feel his neck again, even if it was only for a moment. The guard unlocked his cage and quickly put a collar around his neck, followed by a leash. The guard tugged at his leash, telling him to follow even though Ikato knew by now what to do. He got down on all fours and followed the guard to the observation room; the room was about he size of an average living room in a house. The observation room was completely brown, the only thing that stood out was a window and a door. The 3 slaves were ordered to stand and to stare at the window in front of them. The window that were told to stare at was completely white on one side and clear on the other, giving potential buyers a chance to look at the slaves without the slaves seeing them.

Meanwhile, a young intern walked nervously to the wolf anthro, giving him papers concerning the slaves he had asked to be lined up; it basically told him their breed, height, personality and how long they've been a slave. The other two slaves were captured, while Ikato was born a slave. His mother was pregnant with him when she was brought into slavery, so wen he was born he was automatically put into a cage, one that was separate from his mother.

Hiroto sat on the other side of the window, "Hmm, quite a few good ones you have here. That one there. It says he was raised a slave," Hiroto pointed to Ikato, "Has been owned before?" "No sir. He has spent his entire life here, not owned yet and hardly a scratch on him." Hiroto stood up and paced, "He's extremely submissive sir. Shorter than most, obedient, and quiet." The intern recited the information she was trained to know. "Wonderful. I like him the most. He's fair, and there is something about him that makes me...tingle. I'll come by to pick him up after you have him dressed in the standard uniform for outside transportation. I will be transporting him myself. Bring him to the Main hall when he is ready.

As Hiroto left his observation room, several guards came into the room. A few took away the two others, but 2 rough ones grabbed Ikato and pulled him toward another room. "Cleaned and dressed." They handed him a pile of nicely folded clothes. "You're a lucky one."

After only a few minutes of standing, Ikato was grabbed by 2 guards, both of which were bigger and taller than him. The two guards took him to a different room where he was given to two female anthros, one was a lepord and the other a cyote. The coyote took his leash and lead him to another area of the room where a single tub was. He was ordered to strip and to get inside the tub. Ikato did as he was told and got undressed and stepped into the lukewarm water. "Wait here." The lepord said as the two exited the room for a few minutes before returning with a cart full of shampoos and body wash. Without wasting a moment, the two began bathing the vulpine, making sure not to miss a spot on his body. Once, the two were done they told him to step out of the bath. Ikato stepped out of the water and was given a towel, he dried off and awaited his next orders. Two new people entered the room and handed Ikato new clothes, not fancy enough to make him stand out, but not beat up enough to make him seem poor. As he dressed himself he heard someone say something about him being lucky, he ignored the comment. Once he was dressed, the two female anthros walked past him with a grin on their faces. "Good luck, little fox." They both said as they left.

The same guards as before walked into the room and took his leash and lead him to the main hall. The whole time they walked, he was made to walk on all fours. He silently hoped that when he was given to his new master that he would have the opportunity to walk upright. Ikato waited patiently for his new master as he starred at the floor.

Hiroto walked into the hall from a room off to the side, shaking the hand of another anthro with a stack of papers in his hand. "Thank you for your business sir, and we hope that your purchase is satisfactory." "Oh course. Goodbye." The cold wolf walked over to where Ikato was standing on all fours, "Get up,you're going to walk to the car like me." Hiroto grabbed Ikato's leash and pulled toward the doors where a black car was waiting out front. He opened the back door and pushed Ikato in, sliding in next to him. As the car started to move he turned to talk to Ikato. "You are to be competent at all times and you are to wear the uniform presented to you at the end of the ride at all times." Hiroto lowered his voice, "Is that clear?"

Ikato's first impressions of his new master was someone extremely strict, which was probably due to the expression he had on his face. Ikato had to keep from smiling when he was told to stand, he was glad that he didn't have to walk on all fours anymore even though he was used to it. Almost as soon as he stood up, his leash was given to his new master and was pulled so that Ikato was lead to the car. The fox wanted a chance to look at the outside, since this was his first time out of the building, but he was pushed inside of the car, his master following behind. Ikato decided to look at the person who was going to be his new master, he at least want to know what he looked like. He slowly lifted his head to examine him. His new master was a wolf anthro that was maybe a few years older than him. He could tell that the wolf was much taller than himself, beating him by 5 or 6 inches. Ikato listened to everything that he was being told and didn't say anything until he was asked if he understood. "Y-yes, master." It could be clearly told that he was intimidated by the wolf.

Hiroto looked his new slave over. The vulpine wasn't much younger than himself, but he was alot smaller, and from his attitude, easily intimidated. He picked up Ikato's tail and looked it over in his hand, "You have a fine coloring, and they obviously keep you well taken care of. You're coat is quite shiny." He checked Ikato's eyes, nose, mouth and ears after that, making sure each was satisfactory to him. "Good, good. You will be mine personally. There will be no slave pool for you." He laughed as he thought about the place where his father had all of the other slaves of the house living; it was a dump, and not the place where Hiroto wanted his new boy. "Be thankful, but if you mess up big, you will go down there. Do you have that?"

Ikato turned from his master and starred out of the window, watching as they sped past the buildings. He had never been in a car before so this was exciting for him, but he knew he had to remain calm in front of his master. Ikato quickly turned around as he felt his tail being picked up. He blushed hard when he saw it was the wolf, his blush was clearly visible due to the color of his fur even though he tried to hide it. "I understand." He then began to think about where his new home would be. It was obvious that he was rich because he could afford a driver. He just hoped that he would be treated kindly, but then again, it was just wishful thinking on his part. He had know idea what this guys' personality was.

Hiroto finally let Ikato go and handed him a brown bag, "This has your tags in it, which I expect to be work around your left wrist at all times. It also has your shirt and shorts in it. We're almost there. Before you leave this car, please be dressed. I will take you to your quarters when you are done." For the rest of the short ride, Hiroto stared out the window silently, giving the young vulpine time to adjust and look through the bag if he wished. As the car finally pulled to a stop Hiroto stepped out of the car and looked back in with vicious golden eyes, "You have five minutes to get the tags on tightly and changed into your new uniform. Place your old clothes back into the bag and leave it on the floor. I'll be waiting out here until you're done." The door was shut and Hiroto leaned on the door.

Ikato looked through the bag, curious as to what his uniform would be. He simply nodded when his instructions were finished, telling him that he understood. When Hiroto left the car he wasted no time getting dressed, the last thing he wanted to do was displease his master, especially since this was his first day. First, he took out the tags and put them on his left wrist; it took him about a minute to get them on nice and tight. He then took off his shirt and pants and folded it neatly beside him. Ikato didn't have a muscular body, but he made up for it in having little body fat. While he was still up for sale, the guards had him and many other slaves run for long periods of time to make sure that they didn't become fat and lazy. I wonder if he can see me through those windows? He thought as he put on his shirt. Ikato quickly put on his new shorts and placed his old clothes in the bag. I hope I didn't take too long. He placed the bag on the floor and got out of the car by the opposite door, walking over to Hiroto.

Hiroto listened as Ikato got dressed, watching his watch. Just as Ikato walked out, the timer beeped, and within a few seconds of the time limit, he was standing before him, "Bravo, you're the first to ever make it in the right amount of time." He admired the royal blue shirt and shorts against Ikato's fur for a minute before grabbing his left wrist and checking the tags. "Good job. Keep these on at all times unless I instruct otherwise. You may stand up right as we continue onward. I will show you to your quarters. They are directly connected to me, and your behavior will also be directly related to me, so do nothing to embarrass me." He grabbed the leash gently and began to walk through the large halls, every once and a while passing a few slaves who would immediately scuttles behind something or drop to their knees. Hiroto led Ikato through several halls and up a flight of stairs before stopping before two double doors. "The entrance to your room is accessed through my room only. So after I have sent you to your room, you are not to leave unless permission has been asked."

Ikato let out a sigh of relief after learning he had made it on time. He noticed that the wolf was starring at him, he had to fight in order not to blush. He starred at his tags as his wrist was taken into his masters' hand. "Thank you. I'll....do my best not to disappoint you." He said, unsure if he had spoken out of turn or not. As they waked, he watched as the slaves they walked by drop down to their knees. They must either fear him, or deeply respect him. Ikato starred at the double doors as he was instructed by his master. "Yes, master."

"Good." He threw open the doors and pushed Ikato in before shutting them. The room was decked out in several shades of deep blues and reds. Several dark wood objects stood around the room as well including a set old drawers, a desk and a king bed. "My father makes up for being gone by decorating my room." He offered as explanation as he walked to another door, "This is my bathroom, which is strictly off limits." He continued to walk around the room until he came to the last set of doors, "And this is your room. Inside you will find a dresser filled with uniforms and other assorted outfits. Luckily they are all the same size as what you are wearing now, so they should all fit. Most days you will wear one of the plain uniforms in whatever set of colors you like, some days I will have set instructions for you, however." He stopped and opened the door to the room. "You have a bathroom filled with soaps and other cleaning items. Stay clean."

Ikato was taken by surprise when he was pushed in, but he quickly regained his composure, hoping he didn't notice. He quickly examined his masters' room when he was brought in; it was decorated quite nicely, he made a mental note about the bathroom and how he wasn't allowed inside. He wasn't completely surprised by the size of the the room, after all, he was rich. What really surprised him was that his room was fairly nice. He knew that he was probably going to get his own room, but he had expected it to be small, with little room to move around. He returned his attention to his master when he was led to his own bathroom. Keeping clean was never a hard thing for him, he enjoyed taking baths, mainly because he would receive compliments about his fur from some of the guards. He simply nodded at what he was being told.

Hiroto smiled as he leaned down and gave ring of keys to Ikato, whispering in his new slave's ear, "You have the largest slave quarters in the house, Your room may only be half the size of mine, but it means you are privileged. Those keys allow you to access to anywhere. They are labeled." He straighten up and gave Ikato's bum a slight pat. I'll leave you to become familiar wit your surroundings and to get clean if you feel you are not already. Redress and you may find me back out in my room." With that he turned and left the rooms, closing the doors behind him.

Ikato looked at the set of keys, amazed that he was being given so many thing. 'I wonder why he's treating me so nicely? I think...all I have to do is obey and keep him happy and I'll be treated kindly? This is better than anything I could ever imagined.' He thought before quickly turning his attention back to his master, grateful for everything he was doing. A dark blush was the result of him touching his butt, along with a small yip. He watched as the wolf exited the room before walking inside of the bathroom. He found a fresh towel lying on a rack, his mind was still on what had just happened. The fox turned on the shower and stepped in, leaving the towel on the rack. "Mmm....so nice." He said as he enjoyed the warm water on his fur. After a few minutes of enjoying the water he picked up the body wash and began washing himself. "He's probably expecting me in his room. I shouldn't keep him waiting." After washing his entire body, he found a bottle of shampoo and started lathering his fur. He rinsed and repeated the cycle several times, he lost count of how many times he had done this after a while. Satisfied by how clean he was, he turned off the water and stepped out of the steamy shower. The fox picked up a towel and wrapped it around his waste before walking out into his room and opening up the drawers to the dresser. He didn't think he should try to find something casual so he picked out a white t-shirt and a pair of jean shorts. A little less than a half hour after the wolf had left, Ikato had opened up the door leading to his master's room. "I'm...done." He said as he walked inside of the room, his soft bushy tail following behind.

Hiroto left the room satisfied and went straight to his own bathroom. He was clean already, but lingered in the spacious bathroom long enough to scrub his face and give most of his fur a close look over, brushing down some of the more bushy parts. He cast a glance at the clock hanging from one wall before going back to the main room. He looked toward Ikato's room and after hearing nothing but the gentle sounds of water he found himself changing his suit and tie in for one of the outfits he more often wore whilst roaming around the house. His father would never catch him, he was hardly in the house anyway, and left Hiroto in full control of everything. He made his way to the couch at the far end of his room, not far from Ikato's door, and stretched out in his grey slacks and loose black t-shirt. He closed his eyes and was beginning to drift of when Ikato entered the room. He opened one eye before sitting up and smiling, "Come, sit down." He looked at the outfit and smiled a little wider, "Very nice choice of outfit I must say." He scooted over to give Ikato room and turned slightly so that he would be facing him.

When he first walked in he saw the wolf very close to falling asleep, but he had opened his eyes before when he had walked inside. He nodded when he was told to sit beside him. He walked over to the couch and sat down, placing his tail in his lap. "I um....wanted to say thank you for everything you've done. I don't know how to repay you."

"You can repay me by doing your job for starters," He stretched his legs out in front of him and picked up Ikato's tail, stroking the soft fur, "Which I will let you figure out as you go. It's more fun that way. Oh, and by the way, You are to be on this chair in the morning if you have finished eating, bathing and dressing before I get up. Your food will be brought in with mine. It will be on the left of the tray, which will be set on the table by the door." He waved idly and continued to stroke the tail contently.

He was about to ask what his job was, but he stopped when he was told that he'd find out soon. Ikato smiled as the wolf once again took his tail in his hand, he didn't really mind though, he enjoyed the attention. He made another mental note about what he was supposed to do, he had to make sure that he wouldn't forget a thing that he was being told. "I understand." He said as he slightly moved his tail around in his master's hand.

Hiroto nodded. It seems he hadn't gotten just a beautiful slave, but a competent one too. "So, I do believe I've covered all that you need to know for the time. Is there anything else you'd like to know before dinner?" He smiled and continued to run his fingers through the fur on Ikato's tail. "Ask anything you can think of!" He pulled a rope within arms reach of the couch, signaling that he wold like their dinner brought to the room.

Ikato smiled as his master continued playing with his tail, he was loving every second of the attention. "Hm....anything I can think of?" There was a question that he had wanted to ask, but he had forgotten what it was. He thought for a few seconds about what it was when it came back to him. "Out of all of the slaves in the building......why did you choose me? It's not that I'm not grateful, I was just curious."

"Why?" Hiroto paused for a minute, "You see, I have a list of things I like. Personal tastes really. I like them young, handsome, good colorings and clean looking. Oh the slaves I looked at, you had the most potential. You looked like you would clean up well, and you did, you didn't look like a hand-me-down. That is to say...your body looks pretty well untouched. Your fur looked soft, you looked to be obedient and alert. Everything I needed." He finished his talking with a flourish of his hand. "Sometimes there is no arguing withe the first thing that jumps out at you."

He couldn't help but blush at what he was being told. After hearing all of this he started thinking about what his job was again, he was eager to find out what it was, but he decided he would be patient. He nodded and starred at the hand that was on his tail.
