Fountain of Youth: Chapter 2.
Te 16 Out 2012 1990s BET Shin walked around the stone walls that protected the lake, feeling his diaper sagging under his pants. He already peed three times, but found out that it was hard to change a diaper being constantly assaulted by feelings of embarrassment, even when no one is around. That was because of his regressed emotions and Shin remembered that he was quite bashful back when he was a real cub. He made a circled the walls completely and found the entrance of the cave. He pushed his diaper front and felt another gush coming. He had been holding for a while, so that his diaper wouldn't leak, but he couldn't wait forever. In a rare moment of maturity, he decided to change his diaper right there, since no one was there to see, and pee on some tree between the removal of the used nappy and the cleaning. He nervously took his pants off and undid his diaper tapes, letting the soaked plastic undergarment fall to the ground, making a splatting sound. Exposed, he walked towards a tree, pulling his shirt down as much as he could, to cover his shame. He picked a good tree and started to relieve himself, sighing. It felt refreshing to be "bottomless", as some called it, but felt embarrassing at same time. Good thing Shin didn't have a shy bladder. As soon as he stopped peeing, Shin heard a sound in the bushes. He looked back at his pants on the ground and ran to get them. When he bent over to get the pants, he heard:
- Stop right there! This is an... - the robber saw Shin's butt as soon as he left the bushes. - Am I interrupting? Shin blushed and quickly got himself in a standing position, pulling his shirt down to cover his butt, not daring to look back. - Hey, Danny, interrupting what? - asked someone else. Shin wasn't looking, frozen by shyness. - What the heck is that? - asked a third voice. Unable to take that anymore, Shin quickly got himself clothed and looked back, shyly. - So, now, ready to be robbed? - asked one of them. The trio of robbers were a blue wolf, with some dark blue markings along his body, a German shepherd with dark brown hair and an red fox with dark red ears. Shin took a good look at the heterogeneous group and pulled his knife out. The dog approached to Shin and, once he was close enough, Shin attacked, hitting the dog with his knife, piercing through his shoulder. In pain, the dog walked back a few steps. Seeing the condition of his friend, both the wolf and the fox did nothing. The dog prepared for the next attack. - I'll give you guys a chance to forget about it - said Shin. - I have something to defend myself and you kids have nothing. Just go home. The robbers looked at each other and decided that it wasn't worth it. Shin let them go in the bushes
to flee. Blushing and feeling a cold breeze under his pants, Shin took a diaper from his bag, stuffed inside his pants and taped it there.

Bresk, the dog, Bart, the fox, and Danny, the wolf, are robbers. They don't it to have more than what they need or because they are "bad", however; it's the way they found to survive, now that their parents were all kidnapped by older cubs. Mikey, Danny and Bart are true cubs, they weren't affected by the rain, but were affected by the age lock-up. Bresk was the only one in the group that once was an adult. Mikey is the only exotic species in the group: he is anthropomorphic vulpix. Even being young, he has a gifted mind and his wise decisions assured his position as leader of the group so far. - I dunno, guys - said Danny. - I don't want to this anymore. The rest of the group looked at Danny. - We have no choice. For now, it's what we can do - argued Mikey.
- We actually have choice - said Bresk. - A lot of other cubs are looking for the responsible right now and the reward for his head is still up! Mikey sighed. - I don't see how killing someone is a better option compared to robbing - he said. - We don't have to kill him, though; I don't think that the cubs at the court will have the guts to kill him either - said Danny. - They are cubs now, they will find it... "icky". We just have to bring him to justice and wash our paws to the situation. Mikey sighed once again. - I'll think about that... - he said. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - This place stinks... - says Drag, walking inside the tunnel with Max, Dax and Gus. - It's supposed to - says Max. - It's supposed to be uncomfortable, stinky and hard to explore so the invaders will feel discouraged. - So, that's why the castles are so hard to explore in video-games? - asked Gus. - And that's why tabletop role-playing game dungeons are described as stinky?
- Exactly. Not even a big bad villain would live in such place just because he enjoys the smell. Dax was tired of walking. He tugged Drag's pants, signalizing that he was tired. Drag put Dax on his back and the little fox cuddled with Drag's scaly back. - This tunnel leads to a abandoned
mine. I must warn you guys about prehistoric creatures living in the pits. - Prehistoric? - asked Gus. - Yes; the mine was build right over a lost prehistoric world. We better not talk about it... Gus, feeling his bladder already aching, felt like it was better to just wet himself as usual. The battle earlier and the current exploration, plus the new ally made him forget about his urge. He sighed and let go in is diaper, letting the thirsty undergarment absorb the liquid. Max heard the sound and grabbed his own crotch, feeling a sharp pain on his groin due to the grip, then he released himself, wetting his clothes as well. Because the place was dark, Drag and Dax didn't know what was going on, but someone surely was peeing, judging by the noises. - It was me - said Gus. - But you made all that noise? - asked Dax, knowing that no one makes such a "waterfall" while wearing a diaper. - You made me pee, Gus! - yelled Max. - How? - asked Gus. - I'm incontinent! You shouldn't be reminding me of urine!
- Well, I'm sorry, but, if you really are incontinent, you should be reminded often that you should use the bathroom... - Stop kidding! Max moved towards Gus and grabbed him by his shirt collar. Hearing the noises, Drag turned back and separated the cubs. - No time to fight - he said. - We had enough of it already, don't we? Both cubs pouted. Dax giggled to himself. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - The group kept walking through the mines, the tunnel eventually ended in a huge, deep pit. The only bridge between on side and the other of the pit was an old arrangement of tracks. Mine carts were unused, on the other side of the pit. The group had to walk over the tracks. - I should warn you guys; this hole is connected to the prehistoric world I mentioned - said Max. Gus ventured to look down the abyss and gulped, shivering.
- We gotta, then - said Drag, but, as soon as his fat foot-paw stepped on the cart track, it shakes a little and creaky sounds of iron echoed. Drag stepped back. - I'll look for another way - he said. - Dax comes with me. Max and Gus can take care of themselves. - Affirmative - said Max. - Wait, what? - shouted Gus. - No, no, no, I'm not crossing that! - This is the easiest way - Max looked at Gus. - The mine is a maze, Drag and Dax can figure out the other paths to the other side. Gus whined. - This is the easiest way? -
he asked. - Not for Drag, I think - Max commented. Drag nodded. - Good luck for you guys - Drag walked away, leaving Gus and Max alone. They looked at each other. - I still don't fully trust you - said Gus. Max paid attention. -, but I guess I have no choice if I want my school back running. - I understand - Max stepped on the track and started to walk, sustaining his body on the iron structure. Gus followed, using his arms to balance his body as Max seemed to walk normally.
- How can you do that? - asked Gus, struggling. - I trained - answered Max. - Since you guys defeated me, my memory is coming back slowly. I had lessons on almost all kinds of combat, though just the essentials. I had basic lessons on magic even. - What is that "state of nature" that you mentioned? - There was a moment in history in which animals weren't corrupted by life in society - explained Max. - I was taught that the Fountain of Youth was a manifestation of Ether, who wanted us to come back to the state of nature, in which we worked to survive, we hunted, fished, lived according to the laws of nature. It was a time when we were pure, we had no envy, no jealousy, no private propriety, because everything was owned by everyone. - Sounds utopia - said Gus, getting used to the tricky walk on the tracks. - Then, someone, I don't know who, stipulated a limit on the ground, saying that it was his "territory". He made rules, the very first laws about propriety protection, and everyone else, in their innocence, agreed with that. But they started to do the same, seeing that the piece of ground owned by that someone grew more prosperous and that his life seemed to be easier. They started to divide the ground in houses, owned by families. It doesn't sound so bad, but the division of propriety is the root of selfishness.
- Now it sounds communist - said Gus, giggling, remembering his lessons. - To avoid the conflicts between a family and another, they agreed to stipulate rules of non-aggression and hand to a group of persons the right of enforcing these rules. It's when the State was born. But it was already late, as everyone was infected by selfishness and envy. The Fountain of Youth was the sign that the Ether wanted us to be innocent again. Regressing the whole population was just the first step. The responsible is currently getting himself ready to reeducate the population. A roar echoed through the tunnel, from the abyss. The tracks shook violently and Gus lost balance, falling down. Max, however, managed to stay on the tracks. Max attempted to hold Gus' arm, but failed. Looking down, Max shivered, wondering what happened to Gus. A flapping of wings could be heard and a flying lizard rose
from the abyss. It was an pterodactyl and was huge indeed: eight meters of height and twenty meters from wing to wing. It flew towards Max, grabbing him with his huge mouth and carrying him away. Max could, at the best, punch the beast, causing it's mouth to open slightly, allowing Max to jump off it's mortal teeth. Max aimed, planning to step on the track and be relatively safe. But he missed, his right foot-paw slipped on the track and Max fell into the abyss.
Luckily, Gus got his diaper stuck on a root sticking from the wall. So did Max, but his pants got struck. Both cubs were wedged.
