#3 of One-Offs

The second part to The Prince's treasure


Alex and Darien were at the boat. The squad reformed and all their guns clicked and the one in front yelled, "Freeze."

Both of them stopped. The leader said, "But you're hands on your heads."

They did so and were admittedly dragged out into a van. This force kept both of them quite for the trip. They were pulled out some time after. They were forced out and they looked as they were being lead into a large building with electric wired fences. They opened the large doors and were moved passed a field. They were other creatures minding their own business. They were moved through another set of doors that lead into a large hall. They were forced on their knees and guns were pointed the backs of their heads. All that was heard from outside was a load shots being fired...

There was nothing but smoke for a long moment. There were dead bodies everywhere. There was blood dripping down their heads. A long light that was held up by metal bars was broken off and snapped down to the floor. The lights flickered on and off. The only sound was sine coughing. Darien cleared the smoke away as he went further down the hall trying to find a break. He kept coughing trying to get further and further. He looked up finally seeing a light. He turned back and called out, "Alex!"

He knelt down, "...No...it can't be..."

Tears rolled down the grey fox's good eye. He sat against the black ledge mourning widely. Darien cradled his head into his crossed arms sobbing deeply. Darien stayed like that until he fell asleep. And in the morning he clenched his hand against his heart and cried out, "Why! God damn it, I never wanted this...I never wanted to lose you. I can't...I just can't."

His stomach called out for him but he ignored it. There was no future for him without Alex. They had been through so much. Darien managed to get up and just started walking away. He looked toward the grass as his feet slumped in each step. He step felt like a mile. Darien walked carelessly feeling truly lifeless. He went into the woods and he'd bump into trees. He slid his hand against the tree he hit and keep walking endlessly. This was becoming a walk of death. He kept aimlessly wondering along until nothing was left. He got extremely lucky and ended up in a town. The other multiple of creatures went about their business. Darien almost made it to the center then finally collapsed.

"Are you ok?" He heard a faint deep voice ask. Darien rubbed his eyes and sat up slowly. "Easy, easy, your body is going need time to heal up."

Darien muttered, "I don't want to heal up...I want to die."

"Ha, times have been tough for all of us. But it doesn't mean you should give in."

Darien voice came back a bit, "You don't understand. I lost the only person I ever loved."

He felt a tight grip hold his arm, "Don't talk to me about loss boy. I know all too well about it. My daughter was taken from me."

Darien turned his head to look at the green bangaa that held his arm. Darien looked down at the Bangaa's brown attire. Darian sympathized, "I'm sorry."

The Bangaa sat down on a stool after letting his grip go. The Bangaa looked down at the wooden floor. Darien slid over letting his feet dangle off the bed. Darien asked, "What happened to her?"

The Bangaa explained, "What do you think? The castle had all those guys running all over the place looking for someone. Whenever they didn't get answers they'd just kill someone."

Darien looked down feeling even more shameful, "I see, so even that is my fault..."

The Bangaa looked at him, "What are you on about boy?"

Darien explained, "They were after me and my partner. They captured us and brought us inside some dark dungeon place. They had us on our knees...And the next thing I know, everyone around me is dead. The smoke was too intense. I couldn't breathe. If I stayed there much longer I would have died too."

The Bangaa sat up and went over to a table. He poured some coffee. The Bangaa handed him a cup, "I see. You can't blame yourself for this. It's that damn castle and everyone inside it. There all corrupt."

The Bangaa took of sip of coffee then moved the cup on another table. He started to think rubbing his hand against his chin the asked, "Did you see your partner's body?"

Darien took a sip and it was some damn good coffee, "Well no. But there would have been no way for him to survive. Hell I don't even know how I lived."

The Bangaa stared down Darien and said, "Boy, if you were truly in love you'd make your way back there a make sure. It might be tough but it's something you got to do."

Darien tried to get up his body still ached in pain. The Bangaa held him back on the bed, "Calm down. Don't push yourself so hard. I didn't mean you had to go right now. You're way to hurt. You need to rest."

Darien suddenly asked, "What's your name?"

The Bangaa scratched his head, "What?"

Darien said, "I want to thank you properly for saving me."

The Bangaa extended out his hand an introduced, "The name is Rick."

Darien almost carried out a full smile, "That's an unusual name for a Bangaa."

Rick smirked, "And what about you?"

Darien shook his hand an introduced, "I'm Darien."

Rick asked, "Did you get that eye patch during this event?"

Darien held his hand over the patch, "No, this happened way before. I try to forget that I only have one good eye."

Rick got a blanket from one of the shelves. Rick tucked the blanket on Darien. Rick said, "Now get some rest boy. And don't try anything stupid. I'll be right on the stool over there."

Darien nodded. He fell asleep.

He had a dream off the horrible event. He was holding Alex's hand. Darien grabbed Alex's hand. Darien whispered, "This time I won't let you go."

He saw Alex's head turn and saw the cute smile he adored so much. Then he saw one of the guards use their bayonet and stab Alex right in the chest. Darien yelled, "Noooooooo!"

He woke up still screaming, "Noooooooo!"

Rick jumped up falling up the stool. Darien looked around the wooden hut. He let out deep sigh. He looked over and saw Rick getting up. Darien shook his head, "I'm sorry."

Rick starched his head as he got up. Rick asked, "This partner of your must have meant the world to you. So what's she like?"

Darien gulped and muttered, "He..."

Rick asked, "I beg your pardon?"

Darien cleared up his voice, "His name was Alex. I fell in love with me because he was willing to lie in my behalf and save me from the guards. Even if it was unintentionally, I couldn't help but also be attracted to him. Hmm, we were both young and in love. He was the prince and I was thought to be a thief. But none of that mattered. In the end we both wanted each other and we fought so hard to stay together. It became more than just about love. We both needed each other. And now I feel guilty because I feel like I left him there to die."

Rick got back up on the stool, "Huh, I've never meant male that was attracted to another male before. I mean, I've seen different species hook up but never the same sex. Not that I'm against that sort of thing, just never actually met that sort of creature. My mind's always been more focused around work anyhow. Everything I did was just to give my daughter everything she wanted..."

Rick cleared the tear coming down his face. Darien asked, "I hate to ask but, did you have a wife?"

Rick smirked, "I surely did. She died given birth to my darling daughter. I promised her that I'd be strong for our daughter. When my daughter was killed, I just kept working. I was lost for a while too, mate. In the end we all go reasons to keep going. I promised my strength and beating myself down was a breach of that promise. So I held my head up one day and I kept going for myself while keep their love in my heart."

Darien asked, "Why did you help me?"

Rick grunted, "What kind of a stupid question is that? You collapsed near this hut, figured the best thing would to care of you and let you be on your way. You got a mission too. You've got to get your strength back and be sure if your lover is alive or dead. Even if he is dead you got to be sure mate. It'll eat you up inside. And you have to be strong to. Because that's always what loved ones want, even in the grave. That's why we all keep waking up the next day. We move on for others always. No one in this world is ever truly alone."

Darien finally smiled, "Geese, I've never seen it that way before."

Rick said, "Rest up some more. You need it."

Darien went back to sleep with a lot more ease. He was able to sleep without being disturbed by those terrible nightmares.

In the morning Darien stretched up his arms feeling a lot of that pain had faded away. Darien stood up and slid off the bed. He looked to Rick who was slouched in the stool still sleeping. Darien opened the door and looked back and smirked, "Thank you."

Darien started to make his way back to the forest. He got to the opening a lot quicker when he was watching where he was going this time. He saw the huge black castle. He went to the bridge and went inside. He made in a few feet in then stopped. The smoke was still there and it was extremely heavy. Darien sighed. There was no way for him to get in there and get deep enough to find Alex and get out. He made his way back to the town. Rick was slanted against his door. He looked up seeing Darien. Rick called out asking, "What are you doing?"

Darien came over and looked down, "I went back like you said. But there was no way I could go deeper in the castle. There was too much smoke."

Rick looked to his left as a large brigade of shoulders carrying flags entered the town. There were four of them holding a coffin. They reached the town where everyone could see. One of the shoulders took out a microphone, "Ladies and gentleman of Nier Village it is our great burden to announce the passing of Prince Alex. Since both the king and the prince are dead we decided there will be a new king..."

Darien just started to stomp his way back out of the city again. This time Rick followed him. Darien made it back to the woods and stopped crossing his arms.

Rick caught up and asked, "Hey, you ok?"

Darien shook his head, "He is gone. I thought I could just get over the emotional pain but I can't..."

Rick asked, "How do you know those guy are telling the truth?"

Darien slanted against one of trees, "Because it was purely a miracle that I made it out. I told you that. There is no way he came out. I would have seen him coming out. He couldn't have survived the smoke."

Rick said, "I don't think you can accept that. So I say we check that coffin for ourselves."

Darien asked, "Why are you so eager to help me? If anything you should be trying to kill me. I'm the reason you're daughters died. Don't you get that?"

Rick sat down next to another tree, "I've never killed anyone. Even if you believe it's your fault, I wouldn't bring myself to kill you. I've always been a straight forward Bangaa with a chip on his shoulder. So that luck ran out, I still made that promise."

Darien stood up, "If I do choose to check that coffin you can't come with me then."

Rick stood up too and asked, "Why not?"

Darien had a stern look, his eyes was blazing with a vengeful lust, "Because, I'm going kill every last one of them. I don't want you getting mixed up in this. You've already done me enough favors. Now I see what I must do. This is path too dark for you."

Rick looked up seeing a whole new Fox standing before him. Darien started to walk away, Rick was paused trying to a grip of what he just heard and stood up slowly. Darien started to claw his way into a tree. He started to cut out a pike. Rick started to walk over. As it got darker out Darien made a fire. Rick caught up and saw Darien on the others side of the small fire. He saw that determination as the flames rose up, his blue eye beaming down. Darien turned his head sharping his pike, "Go back home Rick. This isn't you're fight."

Rick sat down, "Like hell it isn't. You got lessons to teach too boy. I've been rolling around in mud for far too long. It's time I cleansed myself from this mess."

Darien just nodded. Darien worked until that pike was sharp enough to kill ten guys over and even more. They rested up in the woods.

In the morning Darien got up. Rick got up shortly after seeing that Darien wasn't wasting time. He was already circling the edge of the city. They followed along right outside the city. They made their way to an opening of water. There was no bridge to get them over. Darien could see the castle. It had merges of past and present technologies. He saw a barn outside and that was his target. He went into the cold water. Rick asked, "What are you doing?"

Darien called back, "It's the only way over now. They must have a single boat, so we have to swim across."

Darien got in deep enough and swam. Rick followed up going into the water too. They swam across and Darien rushed them into the barn. Darien went to center and Rick came in as well. Darien turned to Rick first then took off his shirt. Rick blushed seeing a shirtless male fox for the first time. Darien said, "I suggest you take that off. You don't want to get hypothermia or have leeches."

Rick tried to focus taking off his cross bands. Darien did catch a glimpse of Rick's green chest. He had a well-built body. Darien just looked down not even giving it second thought. Darien moved some hey and moved some rocks from the inside to create a controlled fire. Darien stretched his arms upward then felt a pain in his back. He grunted, "Agh!"

Rick looked back at Darien and asked, "What's wrong."

Darien sat his back near the fire, "I don't know."

Rick came over and knelt down. He saw three red scars from his right shoulder all the way to his back. Rick said, "You got clawed pretty badly."

Darien leaned closer to his legs. Rick reached into his pants pocket and pulled out some bandages. He placed them on the shoulder. Darien actually laughed, "Ha, you have soft hands..."

Rick blushed like never before. His face was hot red. He gulped feeling every action he took as something more. It wasn't just from taking care of him. He was starting to get aroused. Rick was wondering what was coming over him. This was very much like the first time he fell in love.

Rick was fishing back in day. He was all alone in his boat just minding his own business. He saw a female Bangaa get pushed into the water. She cried out, "I can't swim..."

Rick quickly took action diving in to rescue her. He pulled her out the other side and found a nearby shelter. When she regained herself she made the first moved and kissed him. They were young and in the mood so that night they got busy. It was after that event when they took more time to learn about each other. They fell in love and would later have a daughter together. Now he was rubbing on the back of Darien and thinking back there were a lot of factors involved, the loving sensation of being wet also on top of saving helping out. Each moment seemed to reflect the memory of his wife, the parallel was uncanny. He thought about the second kiss it was right on the neck. While deeply thinking about it, he was unconsciously moving leaning closer to Darien and before he knew it he had literally knelt in and kissed the neck of Darien. It was only like a second before he pulled back and realized what he just did. Darien felt it too and felt even more odd for letting it happen. Rick had saved his life and now Rick was showing affection. Darien was frozen by this dilemma. Rick was just staring at the neck; he pulled himself back further and apologized, "I'm sorry..."

Darien turned around looking at Rick not even saying a word. Rick just looked at those innocent blue eyes as Darien pulled in closer. Darien looked into Rick's brown eyes then leaned in and closed his eyes. Darien's lips touched Rick sharing a new found kiss. Rick was staring at this scene seeing Darien's lips make contact with his. He was so terrified and his heart was beating fast. Darien broke the kiss after what was only three seconds. They both looked into each other's eyes again. Not a word was spoken. They both leaned in and closed their eyes letting whatever was happening happen. Their kiss grew with a passion. Darien raced his tongue against Rick's rough Bangaa tongue. Darien placed his hands on Rick's bare green chest. Rick moved his rough tongue to pressing Darien's tongue down. The fire helped build up the passion, both of them lost in each other's mouths. Both of them hadn't felt the warmth of another body in a while. They were losing control; Darien placed his hands on the definitive pecks of Rick. They would break the kiss and come back in with shorter kisses. The tension was already too high for either of them to break away completely. Their lust over powered their state of mind and now what existed was only this moment. There we no emotions of shame or pity the overcoming power of feeling this again seemed to be the only thing they wanted. Darien's hand slid down further coming to the side of Rick's brown shorts. His hands came closer to the center undoing the zipper. Rick slouched down closer against the floor until his back hit the floor. Darien followed with him still kissing him deeply and more lustfully. Rick just closed his eyes as Darien started to work his kissed down the chest. Rick was already full aroused and now he knew that Darien would comply and take care of it. Darien was sunken in by the natural wetness on chest area. He went lower still; Rick contained himself only letting out small grunt-like moans. Darien got of hand touching the side of Rick's green shaft. He licked it finding even more of a wet feeling here as well. Darien removed his own shorts letting his own member free. He came up to the head and went back down. Darien continued on for a bit letting Rick get used to this feeling again. He would come back up after a few good deep licks and open his mouth taken the entire shaft. He worked the unfamiliar pointed head with his tongue a bit. Rick grasped the floor whimpering out short deep grunts not wanting to get too carried away. Darien removed his hands now only using his mouth, bobbing it masterfully taken in the entire thing. Darien was able to see that this was the reality. He had gone too far to take back his actions. He didn't want too. This was nice. Darien could feel his head soon being controlled by Rick. Rick started to moan a bit more excessively while a sweat was building up. The warmth of the fire was a major contribution to it and he was also starting to feel himself building up. Rick's leg shifted a bit, his head turned as he clenched his teeth. His grip tightened as he grunted, "Aghhhh!"

His orgasm came.

Darien pulled up taking in some of his semen. Rick arched his back up off the floor. Darien pulled in with another kiss. Darien went higher as Rick saw where this was going. Now it was his turn. There was only a brief pause but he took in the grey furry member in. Darien closed his eyes. The pain was fading, that is the emotional pain. As Rick got deeper into it the more Darien felt himself letting go of Alex. New love was finding its way this night. Rick bobbed his head finding out doing this wasn't so bad. The taste was unique and surely different from his wife the wetness of his tongue made it harder for Darien to keep himself together. His hand came up resting on the back of Rick's head. He closed his eyes letting Rick take him to a place he wanted to be for a long time. It was just lust now; everything else around this was growing deeper and stronger. Darien let his fluids escape a bit early wanting to feel the release. Rick was a bit off by the saltiness but he wasn't too distasteful. Darien came down resting his butt against the rim of Rick's member. Darien came in kissing him again. The next level was carrying on without words from either of them. Darien pushed himself down when he felt his hole being pushed up against. The pain was too much. Darien still grunted a bit as he slid down further. When Darien reached the bottom he rested there for a while and the kissed some more. Each kiss was like a secret I love you. Words would just ruin the moment now. Rick guided him when he felt ready and Darien moved along still sharing the kisses. Rick's hands came over and grabbed Darien's shaft. And now they were working each other off. Still kissing all night long, they let their hmpth's sing them into the night's sky. They both came and still Darien wasn't fully satisfied. One more time, He wanted that Bangaa ass now. He slid up and worked his way to Rick's legs. Like before there was no argument from Rick. He lifted the legs and Rick got ready. Darien pushed into the unintended asshole. Rick clawed at the wood and let out a tough grunt. Darien had pushed all the way in too make it easier. He was thrust after a short pause and created a pattern of well-timed humps. Darien's hands came over the lifted legs and touched the wood for a while. He then moved one hand back to that ripped chest and another to start rubbing Rick off again. Their moans were deep and grunt-like which seemed to be the theme for this entire sexual experience. Darien once again felt like letting go a lot faster when his member was inside something. He didn't last long and neither did Rick this time. They shared this orgasm as well. They were finally tired out. They both fell asleep after Darien got off. They slept separately; Darien was the one to fall asleep after making sure to be on the other side of the fire.

In the morning Darien was against the entrance of the barn. One hand was on the edge of the door opening. Rick sat up and saw Darien standing there. Rick asked, "What are you doing mate?"

Darien looked down and back just a bit not looking at Rick fully and sighed, "I think we should go back."

Rick stood up getting dressed then asked, "Why?"

Darien licked his chops, "Don't pretend like last night didn't happen. My actions...our actions made it clear that I've moved on now."

Rick said, "We've come this far."

Darien turned to him and gulped, "Don't you get it...I've fallen in love with you. And I think Alex would hate it if I went through with killing anyone too. I'm not that kind of Fox. I want to live a simple life."

Rick asked, "Do you think you'll be able to live a simple life ever? Those guards aren't going to stop. Even if we went back, they would just keep coming. Then we would be reduced to running and hiding. Sometimes we have to do dark things to return to simple."

Darien said, "No...I've seen creatures that have dark things when I was kid. Every one of them told me that they could never truly return to the way things used to be. Killing leaves scars that last longer than losing someone you love. I learned that."

Rick said, "I learned something too. You're selfish...You'd rather be pure as long as it's just you and me. But I'm going rest well. And the rest of that town isn't going to rest well. Then you'll start thinking to yourself that all those other deaths are on your hands. That's what you risk if you do nothing. Doing nothing is the worst."

Rick picked up the pike. He tossed it over. Darien looked at it and sighed. He figured they were damned either way. Darien once again accepted this, "Fine. Let's go."

They were now in a whole new mood as they got their sneak on. Anything perverted was the last things on their minds as they came along the castle. They saw a rope ladder for guards to use. They climbed it quickly making their way to the wall. Darien refocused and whispered, "Ok, let's work our way from inside to the outer wall."

Rick nodded. They saw a guard to their right. They hopped down before he turned. They landed small hut. They rolled to the left as the canvas almost snapped. It was heavy another just to support them. They landed and created a small dust cloud near their feet. They lowered themselves at knee level and kept crouched. They worked in-between huts. They waited for some guards to pass before running across to a gate. There were some stairs. They went up the inner wall and went up, across then down the other side. They saw one guard with his back turned. There was one hut to their left. There was a box. The guard was joined by another one. They quickly hid under the box. The guard turned and asked, "Did you hear something?"

They saw one of merchants slide out. The guard looked at the box and he said, "It's just a box."

He paused for a bit then asked the merchant, "Did you move that box?"

The merchant nodded, "Got too much room."

The guard turned again. The merchant left and they started to lift the box just a bit and sneaked inside the castle. They removed the box and saw a turn. There was a camera in in the corner.

Rick whispered, "It's a still camera. There's no way we can get passed it."

Darien tossed up his pike once, "Looks like there is no time to be discrete."

He threw the pike right the camera and it hit. There was a guard in a control room he saw the camera go down. He smacked the television screen then got an Idroid out, "Camera one is out. Someone who is nearby check it out."

Darien raced along picked the pike back up and Rick followed behind. One Guard came down the hall. The hall had some deep dark ledges. They saw the guard moving toward them. They hid between the creviced ledges as the guards passed by. They snuck away after the guard advanced. They saw another hall. They went down it and saw a bright room. Darien saw the coffin. There was one guard facing it. Darien snuck up and chocked the guard. Rick came inside as well. Darien waited until the guard was unconscious. Darien said, "Cover his mouth."

Rick did so and Darien raised the pike and hit him in the neck. The guard eyes shut open as the pike's painful piercing dug deeply into his neck. Rick applied pressure as he was letting out muffled screams. Darien got deep enough and that was his first kill. Rick removed his hand. Darien stacked the pike against the coffin. He removed the lid and saw it was empty. Darien said, "Nothing."

Rick came over and checked as well. Rick said, "They made a quick assumption it would seem."

Darien looked down, "Alex is dead...there's no point in trying to escape that reality. They were just like me unable to even reach his body."

Rick sighed, "We've got to find a way to get inside."

Darien said, "There's no need. I'm at peace. I've accepted it and this was all I needed."

Rick said, "But..."

Darien came up and kissed Rick. Darien brushed the side of Rick's face and said, "I love you."

Rick gulped. Meanwhile the guard saw the smashed camera. He got on his idroid, "We might have intruders."

The guard in the security room set off an alarm.

Darien grabbed Rick's hand, "That's it we've got to get out of here now. We've been found out."

They rushed out another way. They managed to get outside and were met by several guards. They stopped. Rick heart raced and he whispered, "I...I love you too."

The guards got their guns ready. Darien said, "Not again..."

Rick looked at Darien. The leader stepped forward. He held the guards back. He took off his helmet. The leader asked, "What is this nonsense, what exactly where you two up to?"

Darien stepped forward dropping the pike, "We were curious. We wanted to know of the prince was dead. I knew there was no body but I still went on having second doubts. To be honest I can see why you did that. The people need a leader."

Rick whispered, "What are you doing?"

The leader said, "I'm glad someone gets it. I'll be honest with you we got too many other problems to deal with. I can't step forward as a leader."

Darien took another step forward, "Then declare me the new prince."

The leader asked, "Why?"

Darien said, "I knew the prince, personally. He would have wanted me to take over."

The leader said, "You realize that the title is just that. You'd just be a popular figure and nothing else."

Darien said, "I'd accept those terms."

The leader said, "Very well. Come with us."

They rest of the creatures lowered their guns. Darien also had left Rick there. Rick was just stunned in place. He watched on as Darien walked away. Rick muttered, "This isn't goodbye."

He turned and started to head back him. Darien was brought into the castle. Some of the soldiers went into the town declaring Darien as the new prince. Darien sat on a throne. He was given a crown. The crown was placed on his head.

"I had to make a sacrifice. One day you will both make hard choices as well. My hands have been stained with blood. My children avoid the castle at all cost. I don't want you to see me, to see what I've become. I'm a monster now." Darien finished the note to his adopted children.

(Shortly after Darien left the smoked building) The smoke was intense. He felt something or someone pick him up. His eyes would open for a moment or two. He let a small groan, "Agh." He noticed the gas mask on his. He whispered, "Darien..."

He fell asleep. Moments later he woke up again on a bed. He got up and touched his face feeling that the gas mask was off him. He was in an unfamiliar area. He looked out the window. He saw flying cars and building that went higher then he could have ever imaged. Alex swiped his head, he felt woozy for a moment. He sat back down looking around. Alex crunched up, "Darien..."

He heard foot steps. Alex waited and watched as Mika showed up. Alex cried, "Mika...Where is Darien?"

Mika sighed, "I didn't see him. I'm sorry."

Alex begged, "We have to go back. He had to have found some other way out."

Mika said, "I'll go. You stay here and rest up."

Alex slid over and looked down. Mika said, "I promise, I'll find him."

Alex saw Mika leave. He placed his hand on his stomach. He got up and searched the cabinets. He found some snacks and took to them pretty wildly. Alex paced the room after getting more worried. Each moment was hitting him like a ton a bricks. This waiting game surely wasn't his style. Mika put the mask on making his way back over. Two Bangaa's saw him go by.

One of them said, "Ain't that the prince's guard."

The other said, "Yup, and he's got a bounty just like the prince."

They started to slowly follow up behind him. Mika kept walking, after a while he looked back seeing the Bangaa's following him. Mika knew what he had to risk in order to save the prince. He ran for it and the Bangaa's gave chase. Alex stepped outside he looked around the busy city. The future items were spreading along the cities pretty quickly. Alex never had the time to look at such change beforehand. Alex shook his head. This wasn't the time to admire the scenery. Alex started to move along. Some of the top notch Vixen's passed by. Alex was stopped by three of the vixens.

One of them asked, "Well what do we have here, a hunk of a fox."

Alex tried to move but they followed his path. Alex said, "I'm sorry but I'm spoken for."

The same vixen said, "Well that's alright. You can keep a secret can't you?"

Alex stumbled back, "No, I'm not going to lie to him."

The vixens shrugged him off. He headed in another direction. The city was large and confusing. The world seemed to move much faster. Alex went about his journey out in the open. "You killed daddy. You did...You did!"

Another fox came up and pushed down Alex. This fox took a cloth and pressed it against Alex's mouth. Alex faded into a slumber.

Mika was out of breath. Mika made his way into the forest. He stumbled along until he tripped unable to continue. The Bangaa's caught up and captured him. Alex woke up slowly and tried to moves his hands. He looked down and was stuck on a chair. He struggled around but it was no use. He was tied up really well. The door opened and a small light brown fox came out. He had the same shading as Alex. The young fox had a purple tattoo that started from the tip to his left ear and zigzagged down around his eye left. The young fox said, "You're not looking to hot brother."

Alex asked, "What are you talking about...brother...?"

The young fox swirled around, "The name is Cain. Daddy got mad, when he found out you were gay. He wanted you dead, he broke his heart. You killed him instead. But before that he knocked up some chick. He fucked her real good. His semen went in her and thus I was born."

Alex asked, "Dad's dead?"

Cain pranced around, "Got a heart attack and all. But I was super smart. I learned quickly that daddy had no real power. He was tool but I loved him. Some nights I dream that Daddy would fuck my lights out. I started thinking I got those thoughts from you. Daddy told me all about your perverted lifestyle. It's cute. But it damaged Daddies brain. I don't mind being bisexual, but I still wanted revenge. I can't have daddies love now. You took that from me. See this tattoo wanna know how I got it?"

Alex said, "You're crazy. You need help."

Cain sat on Alex's lap, "It was branded on me. No choice in the matter. My cute little foxy cock got all wild up. The pain was pleasure see? Now it's my turn to damage your brain right back. But first, I want to actual now what it's like already. So now it's your turn to show me."

Cain leaned in and pressed a kiss. Alex pushed away. Cain whimpered, "I thought you were gay. You're supposed to like male kisses."

Alex said, "My lips only touched my lover's lips. No one else's, I never wanted to kiss anyone else."

Cain crossed his arms, "Don't be stubborn. You can share kisses with your own brother. I know I come off as highly erotic but that's because my brain is wired to the new world. Sex is everything. And real power is captured with dominance. Everyone else is running around trying to find their place in the world. Those creatures are sad. I know what I desire already. I want to have the world in my fingertips and to fuck all the glorious vixens and foxes I come across. So they'll call me a slut. I don't mind."

Cain unzipped Alex's pants. Alex pleaded, "Don't do this."

Cain sighed, "You're dick is calling me brother. I will have that juicy tender in my mouth. This is good practice."

Alex struggled along as Cain lowered the pants to his knees he lowered the underwear too. Alex's dick was free and Alex pulled along. Cain moaned, "Oh baby here were go."

He opened his mouth and started to take in Alex's dick. Alex cried, "Stop! Stop!"

Cain went down and took in as much of the cock in his mouth as he could. Cain bobbed his head and Alex closed his eyes screaming, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh, Stooooooooop!"

Cain only went faster. Alex couldn't hold it in. Cain let some of the semen drip in his mouth. Cain came up swiping his hand on his mouth; "Blah, salty, salty, salty. Just how I imaged it, a little tingly for my taste but I could warm up to it. Darling brother did you really suffer so hard."

Alex grunted, "Fuck you."

Cain jumped off, "Curse me all you wish. I'm the free bird. Look out the window bro."

He opened the shades Alex could see a room with a huge metal contraption. Cain smirked, "See, this is my genius. This is what it equals too. I have plans, big plans, bigger than daddy's pipe dreams. I have conquest on the brain you see. And I have the tools to do it."

Alex painted, "You'll be stopped. You're just a kid..."

Cain moved over to the table. There was a small ring on the table. Cain looked over, "No, no, no. You see if you give creature the illusion of power they will fall in line like sheep. Make em' think it's magic. But it's all really technology taking the next big step. See there are still a lot of creatures living in the old world have seen nothing like this." He put the ring on; there were several dials on it. He stopped the dial. He made a fist he punched Alex. His hand was quickly covered in this black symbiot like substance. Alex arched forward and ached, "Aghhhhh!"

Cain said, "See that is power. As true punishment I think I'm going to kill Darien."

Alex looked up, "Dar...Darien...How do you know...his name."

Cain crossed his hands behind his back, "You didn't hear the news. He became the new prince, and according to the world you are dead. Time sure flashes by when you're unconscious. Don't worry I'll make this quick."

Alex could finally fell a slip in the knot. He worked his hands more carefully pulling himself closer and closer to freedom. Cain sat down rather pleased with himself, "You look awfully worried my cute brother. What's on you're mind. Are you sad that Darien's going die. Love fades brother, but sex can keep going, that's for sure. Tomorrow I'll let you taste your last drop of semen and I'll kill you too. But I want to see your reaction first."

Alex head came down, "There won't be a reaction."

Cain stood up, "You are rather confident."

Alex rushed up. Cain quickly flipped through the window the machine. Alex ran out the dashed out the window desperate to escape. Cain heard the glass, Cain's head snapped up, "He chose the window...well fuck, fuck, fuck."

Alex lucky hit a canvas stand mat, Alex rolled to the side. It started to rain. Cain jumped back up and made his way stepping on the glass toward the broken window. Cain took off his shirt. There was another purple tattoo that swirled around his chest. Cain removed his pants and underwear. Cain howled, "A little naked dance for you dear brother. I dance like the slut I was born to be."

He used the edge of the window like a poll grinding against it. His legs at jagged purple tattoos as well as his arms, his tail was just made all purple. He stopped and laughed, "I bet you're going to cry too."

A tear dropped down his eye. Alex was lost now deep in city. He zipped himself up before moving on too far along. Alex now discovered the slums for himself. The further out he went the poorer and poorer the area got. Some of the buildings had no roofs. There were beggars on the streets. Alex looked around; he couldn't help but notice the sad faces. He went even further out where the city ended. Now he was just walking on mud. He eventually reached the ledge. He looked down. Cain let go of the ledge and danced lowering his hips and almost drying humping the air, "Go, jump. Do it brother. Go, go, go! Fucking let's dance brother. Let fear fade from your mind. Now jump."

Alex closed his eyes, "I'm sorry."

He turned around. He clasped his fingers the folded them tucked them against his chest. He gasped as he stepped back falling backward going doing the cliff.

Darien woke up from a night terror and called out, "Alex!"

He looked around the throne. Darien looked down, "Damn it. I thought I was over this."

Darien stood up from the throne. A voice calmly said, "Relax darling. You are over stressed."

Darien sat back down, "I'm sorry my love. Sometimes I say things I can't control."

A grey female vixen came out and kissed his hand, "Its ok Darien. I'm with you now."

Darien looked at her, "Thank you Kilila."

She leaned in. He kissed her on the lips and he said, "I love you."

Kilila said, "I love you too."
