Phew! I struggled a bit with this story. It went through some changes, before it finally became what it is now. Originally it was planned to be heavy on humiliation and foot-worship, but I ended up changing that up, in favor of a more violent version. The violent version was supposed to end in Nox's bloody death.. But I decided it didn't fit the story too well. Jevin already knew Nox for a couple of years, so it wouldn't make sense for him to just snuff the poor bat out. ;-;

Anyway! Yeah, this is a gift for Jevin! The idea for this story came from Jevin saying something about my needing to learn my place. My sleep deprived brain instantly screamed "STORY IDEA! GO DO IT NOW!", so.. There it is. x3

This guy, Jevin, is my favorite micro/macro writer, and one of my all time favorite writers, in general. The way he portrays emotion in his stories.. Hnng. He's so good! If you enjoy my amateur work, then I'm totally sure you're gonna love his stuff!

Jevin is Jevin

Noxxy is me!

The "cloaker" is also Jevin's idea. Well, the name anyways. :3

*Cloakers are essentially rings that turn micros into normal sized furs, as long as they have 'em on. :3


"I feel like you've been getting awfully lazy. You're hardly as thorough as you used to be." The wolf exhaled, flexing his gray toes. He was reclining on a pale blue futon. At the foot of the futon (And at his own, of course) there was a white and purple bat. He was sitting cross legged, with the lupine's feet in his lap.  "I still don't get why you can't just wash your feet before you make me do this.." The bat mumbled, his attention on the wolf's feet; one was in his hands, while the other rested on his lap. A noticeably musky odor emitted from them, much to the bat's disdain.  "Oh, shut -up-, will you? What happened to you, anyway?" The wolf sat up straighter, crossing his arms as he glared down at Nox, who simply flicked an ear and huffed out of annoyance. The wolf's foot had shifted back, so he had to awkwardly lean forward.  "Tch. What do you mean, anyway? It's not like I don't do the junk you tell me to do, -sir-." Nox muttered, kneading his thumbs into Jevin's sole. His fingers easily slid along the damp, slick, and hot surface.  The wolf remained silent, and turned his attention back to the television, while Nox rubbed his feet. For now, he'd let the bat get away with his snarky comments. It hadn't been the first time that the bat had acted up, but it would certainly be the last time. He'd make sure the bat would remember this punishment for a very long time.  ...  "It's been twenty minutes already. I'm going to go back to my room, I'm already late for a game match." Nox squirmed and pushed Jevin's foot off of his lap, brushing his leg off. He stood up and shuffled to the bathroom, proceeding to scrub his hands with soap, until the smell of sweat and musk wasn't as strong. It was never truly gone, seeing as the wolf had the bat rub his feet twice a day, and always after either his morning run, or after he came back from work. "Ugh.. Gross.."  The bat muttered, sliding into his room and shutting the door.  Jevin reached down and fished his old sneakers out from underneath the couch. He stuffed his feet back into them, then stood up. The wolf chuckled quietly as he made his way front door, opening it, and slipping outside. "I'll make sure that stupid bat learns his place.."  ...  Nox giggled quietly, a headset resting on his ears. The webcam atop his computer was glowing a faint blue, indicating that it was currently being used. Apparently, the bat was in a group call, where each fur had his screen on. By the looks of it, two of the furs in the call were competing in a fighting game of sorts, while Nox and three other furs were spectating. "There's no way in heck he's winning! Look! Arky already has less than half of his h-"  BANG.  Jevin kicked the door open, and grinned innocently. His gray and cream colored fur had a sheen to it,

and he smelled faintly of sweat. "Oh, there's my micro! Whatcha doin'?"  He giggled out, humming cheerfully as he entered the webcam's range.  Noxxy had fallen back off of his seat, the bang had startled him immensely! He was sprawled on the floor, and made a move to stand up. Unfortunately for him, Jevin playfully pushed him back to the floor, using his shoe-clad foot. "Ah-ah-ah. You're staying down there, got it? See, I think there's a little lesson you need to learn. A lesson in humility." The gray wolf made sure that he spoke clearly enough, so that all of the bat's friends could hear.  "J-Jevin, what the -fuck-?!" Nox hissed out, pushing up at the wolf's shoe. His face was a bright scarlet, a telltale sign of embarrassment. "Y-you're not.. Y-you're not supposed t-"  "You didn't finish your job, Nox. You remember our deal, don't you? A foot rub in the morning, then a rub -and- a tongue-bath, in the afternoon." Jevin replied, in a factual tone. Before the bat could complain, the wolf added pressure to his chest, smothering the words before they could come out. "Oh, and I don't care if your friends see. As a matter of fact, I think it's an apt punishment, don't you? Since you've been so arrogant lately.. I think it's time to destroy that silly little ego you've somehow acquired." Jevin reached over and angled the webcam down, making sure that the bat's friends could see him now.  A mortified squeak was all that left the bat's muzzle. He squeezed his eyes shut and turned his head away from the webcam, which was pointing down in his direction. Jevin, in turn, pressed the dirty tread of his shoe to Nox's cheek, and forced him to look back at the webcam. "No, no. You're going to look right into the webcam.. I want this memory -burned- into your head. You're an ungrateful little punk. By the time I'm done with you, though.. Well.. You'll see, and so will your friends." The wolf chuckled quietly, rubbing the humiliated creature's cheek, leaving a streak of dirt and trampled grass, all along Nox's left cheek.  "G-ngh.. S-stop..! F-fine, fine, I'll be good! Please.. J-Jevin..!" Nox whimpered out, in-between harsh smotherings. Unfortunately for him, his pleas and begs fell upon deaf ears. Jevin obviously wasn't going to take pity on the bat. Though it was cruel to do such a thing to him, it was necessary; Jevin knew how stubborn Nox could be.  "Nox, it's much too late for that. Maybe if you would've changed earlier, I wouldn't be doing this. Now.. I'm going to let you up, and you're going to drag a chair over here. After you do that, you're going to kneel for me, so all of your friends can see." Jevin smirked, slowly stepping off of the bat's chest. He left a dirty shoe print right in the middle of the vibrant purple chest fur, much to Nox's distress.   With a quiet whimper, Nox slowly sat up. He rubbed at the

corner of his eye, wiping away a tear. Wordlessly, he stood up, and shuffled across the room. He grabbed the back of a chair, and dragged it all the way back to where Jevin was standing.  Jevin brushed the bat's hands away from the wooden chair, and proceeded to position the chair, himself. It was now situated towards the end of the room, and faced in the direction of the computer. The wolf plopped down on the chair, and grinned toothily. "Good boy. Now.. I hope you didn't forget the next part."  Nox swallowed audibly, cheeks burning brightly out of humiliation. "J-jevin.." He sniffled out, his voice quivering lightly. "I-I.. I'll be good.. Please.. C-can't you at least turn off the we-""Shhh..." The wolf cut him off mid-sentence. Much to the bat's frustration, Jevin simply smirked and pointed to the space before him. "Be a good micro, and kneel." He murmured, his eyes half-narrowed now. It was hard to disobey the wolf; when he wanted, he had a manner of making Nox feel pathetic and inferior. Whether it was his demeaning tone, choice of words, or his firm commands, Nox had no clue. He just knew that -something- about the wolf usually caused him to feel awfully self conscious about himself. Perhaps this was why he had 'rebelled'?  With a shaky sigh, Nox took a couple of steps forward, then hesitantly kneeled before Jevin. He kept his gaze fixed upon the wooden leg of the chair, if only to give himself something to focus on, other than the wolf.  "You sure talk a tough game, Nox. Deep down, though, you're just like every other micro. You're insecure, terrified, and -pathetic-. Where's that defiance you showed earlier? Why aren't you making those snarky comments?" Jevin's voice was quiet, and about as slick as oil. He smiled pointedly, then nudged Nox's chin with the tip of his shoe, and slowly brought the bat's head up. His eyes met the the terrified creatures', and he could easily read all the emotions that seemed to flash in the bat's golden and purple eyes.  "Look at me. You're weak. You're an absolute waste of life, just like the other micros. Did you think because I gave you a cloaker, that you were even -half- of what I am? Just because now you're not tiny at the moment, doesn't mean you're not a pathetic micro. You were born a micro, and you'll die one too." Jevin was still deadly calm. Each word hit Nox like a train, and before long, glistening tears began to well up in the corners of his eyes. Still, Jevin didn't stop; he felt a rush of power. He reveled in his cruelty, some long-lost desire to hurt, resurfacing.  "You've got everything you could want. You've got a bed, you're given warm food, and you're treated quite well. All I ever asked in return, was that you'd help out around the house, and rub my feet. Foot rubs and house chores. Really, were those -that- bad? I could've snuffed your worthless life out. You

would have ended up as a gory paste." Jevin paused, and turned the bat's head up again, forcing him to hold his gaze. Tears were flowing freely now, streaking down along his cheeks, cutting a swath through the dirt that Jevin had grinded into his white cheekfur. The wolf's expression changed, and he grinned toothily. "Actually.. Take off your cloaker."  The bat's eyes widened, and his jaw dropped. Before he could even stammer out a reply, Jevin lightly kicked Nox's chin, shutting his jaw and keeping him from speaking. "Shut up. I know what you're going to say, so shut up. Just take your cloaker off, and maybe I'll have mercy on you."  Really, did Nox have a choice? He'd never seen Jevin -this- mad before. Sure, he'd been upset when chores were done poorly, or when he'd complained about his tasks, but the wolf had never done anything like this before. If he refused to obey... Well, there was no telling what Jevin would be capable of. It was best to comply, and hope that he'd live through the "punishment".  Nox gripped his ring between his index and thumb. He lowered his gaze down, staring at the shining surface of the silver and gold band. He could see his warped reflection in one of the various amethysts that were embedded along the middle of the ring. The bat blinked away a couple of tears, clenched his jaw.. And slipped the ring right off.  Almost as soon as the ring had left his finger, Nox seemed to vanish. Jevin knew better, however. He turned his attention down to the carpet, where there was an expensive looking ring, with a tiny bat trapped in the middle of it. The lupine smirked and stooped down, scooping both the ring and the bat up, and brought them up to his face. "I hope you can appreciate this, Nox. This is for your own good." He murmured, bringing his muzzle close, hovering it above his open hand.  Nox squeezed his eyes shut and turned his head away. His tiny chest was rising and depressing at an incredible pace; it was a wonder that he hadn't hyperventilated yet! Jevin could practically smell the fear that seemed to emanate from the terrified creature, and justly so. Considering that Nox was about three inches now, there was a variety of things that could be done to him.  The wolf exhaled gently, his warm breath washing over the minuscule bat, prompting a weak whimper of fear. "Do you remember what happened when I first found you?" Jevin breathed out, all over Nox. The bat didn't reply, or move. He stood as rigid as could be, maintaining the same position.  "Well.." Jevin continued, slowly brought his hand down to the floor, and dumped Nox a good five feet from him, and onto the carpet.The wolf was in the process of untying his shoes, but still spoke. "It was a hot summer afternoon, and I had just returned from my jog. I'm sure you can attest to that." Jevin chuckled out, slipping each socked foot out of his shoes,

setting them on either side of Nox. Heat washed over the poor bat, along with a nauseating amount of musk.  "I had walked right past you the first time, without even noticing you.." Jevin smiled, standing up and calmly walking right past Nox, to the other side of the room. The micro sniffled silently, wiping his eyes with the back of his wing. "I kicked my shoes off and left 'em in my room, and came back to watch some TV. However.. Before I could reach the couch, I noticed something! Now, I'd never personally had any micro infestations, but I knew friends who had. They always advised against letting even just one micro into your home. You guys are pretty troublesome.. You'll just bring the rest of your friends in, and infest the place!"  Jevin began walking back towards Nox, but he didn't pass him this time. He stopped about a foot away, and placed his hands on his hips, looming high over the bat. "Remember -this- part?" Jevin raised his sock-clad foot, and hovered it above Nox. The black bottom of his sock became Nox's sky; it took up most of his vision when he craned his head back.  Wordlessly, Jevin lowered his foot onto the micro, almost instantly smothering him in heat, and heady musk. The hot and sticky fabric of the sock enveloped Nox, forcing his muzzle right against the sweaty material. Nox had to fight for his breath; he had to push, squirm, and wriggle, just for one gasp of humid and foul air. His sensitive nose burned with the strong and distinct scent of lupine sweat, and he had to squeeze his eyes shut to keep the salty liquid out of his eyes.  Jevin roughly smothered Nox for a good thirty seconds, before beginning to apply pressure to the bat. "You see how powerless you are, now? You were never in control, Noxxy. You'll never be in control of anything.. Not even your own fate. The truth is, I'm in control of you. I decide whether you live or not.." Jevin applied a small burst of pressure, eliciting a squeak from the bat, and then lifted his socked foot off of the micro, revealing a -soaked- bat.  Nox was laying flat on his back, arms and legs spread. Every centimeter of his front now had a light coating of wolf sweat on it. The scent had stuck too, and left him reeking of sweaty wolf feet.  Jevin smirked and stuck his tongue out at the tiny bat, chuckling. "That was how it went, remember? I was far too nice to kill you.. But I also had to make sure that you weren't going anywhere." The wolf gently nudged Nox with his toe, rolling him over onto his belly. Jevin idly rubbed at him with that same toe, roughly petting him.  "I'm sure you also remember the week that I held you in captivity. Trapped in an old pickle jar, only taken out to be fed.." The lupine cleared his throat, and rolled Nox onto his back again, and began to rub his immense toe over the bat's muzzle, smothering him in sweaty fabric. "It was pretty cute,

actually. You hardly spoke at first, and thought I was planning on eating you, or something." Jevin chuckled softly, poking at the bat's chest, forcing him to exhale. "Sniff." He commanded, pressing his toes to Nox's muzzle. The tiny bat would've inhaled anyway, simply because he needed air, but Jevin thought that simply added to his humiliation  "I suppose eventually I became very fond of you. I was used to coming home from work, and chatting about my day with you. It was nice, even if all you did was nod." The wolf frowned to himself, letting out a quiet sigh. Almost as soon as the cruel streak came, it was gone; replaced by melancholy. He reached down and plucked Nox up off the ground, holding him in his cupped hands. Jevin shuffled out of the bat's room, and into his own bedroom. On his old wooden nightstand, there was a small jar.  "So.." Jevin continued, dumping Nox into the jar. He sat on the bed and leaned forward, peering into the bat's container. "I've decided that -this- is going to be your punishment. I hope you think about all that I've done for you, 'cause it just breaks my heart to see how you've become so ungrateful. I suppose if you can't bring yourself to change for the better... Then there's no reason for me to keep around a disrespectful micro."  Nox listened, sitting cross-legged in the middle of the jar. He rubbed at his eyes with the back of a wing, ,and sniffled quietly. As the wolf leaned closer to the jar, the tiny bat turned away, and stared down at the bottom of the jar, refusing to acknowledge the wolf.  "I'm going to leave you there now. I'll still feed you and all, but I'm revoking your cloaker. You can have it back once you learn how to behave." Jevin mumbled, voice quivering. He secured a lid on the jar, one riddled with tiny holes, so Nox could breathe.    "Well.. I'm going to go to bed now. Think about what I said, okay..?"   "...""Goodnight Noxxy." "..."
