#2 of Torture


The chopper landed back at the base, and the group immediately headed for the medical facility in the headquarters, where Shepherd was waiting.

"Hurry! Put him on this stretcher, I'll take it from here." he said.

Shepherd disappeared into the operating room, and the door was locked. Silence ensued. All the Rovers were still in such shock over what happened, Hunter being the most affected. He still couldn't get those horrible images out of his head......although he couldn't tell his teammates; they'd think he lost it.

"It's all my fault.....if I hadn't called him so many names......" Exile sobbed.

"Blitz...I should've just called you by your real name...I'm so sorry....." Colleen sobbed out.

Hunter pulled himself from his thoughts and said, "No, it's mine. I should've given him a chance. Should've stopped you guys from picking on him, I'm the leader. This is my responsibility, I'm sorry Blitz...." Hunter said, holding back his tears.

In reality, Hunter cared for Blitz more than anyone ever knew. He loved Blitz deeply, but was afraid of being rejected and kept his feelings hidden. He always thought as Blitz as an immature younger brother, and what's more though he was a real hunk as well. Colleen and Exile said nothing, only stared at Hunter. Hours passed, and Shepherd came out.

"Well?" Hunter asked. "You're lucky you found him in time, he might've not made it.....he was barely alive. He's still very critical though....." the Professor whispered sadly. "Everyone sit down, I have some rather troubling story to tell you..."

The Rovers took a seat, and prepared for the worst.

"Blitz suffered from massive physical trauma, there were cuts everywhere and bruises all over where it looks like he was beaten."

The Rovers were dead silent, and their faces pure darkness.

"He also has......evidence of being....well forced.....but......" Shepherd trailed off.

"But.....?" Hunter asked, hesitating.

"There were no traces of fluid, it looks like he was forced with a blunt object......he has massive injuries, he almost bled out internally......" the doctor finished.

The Rovers were shocked, who would do such a thing?!

"Those bastards! I'll kill them for this!" Exile proclaimed angrily.

Colleen was sobbing rapidly, she couldn't take it. Hunter was angry, sickened, sad, and full of rage all at once, he didn't know what to feel.

"I did a brain scan......there is massive psychological trauma as well....not just from the physical torture...but there seems like something was.....planted in his brain. The readings are quite unclear....but it seems like some sort of psychic energy......we won't know till he wakes up for further study." Shepherd finished.

The Rovers said nothing, and simply lowered their heads.

"Now, I want to do a psychological evaluation on each of you. Meet me in my office in an hour, go and clean yourselves up. I still have to work on Blitz some more." Shepherd said.

The Rovers nodded and went their separate ways. Hunter entered his room, and shut the door, then lay back on his bed. His room was the basic guy's room. A bed, some furniture, video games, and various posters of bands and such. Hunter took of his shirt and pants, and grabbed a towel from his closet. He couldn't help but look at his blood stained shirt, and he shut his eyes, remembering Blitz. If he only gave him a chance and stood up for him...... Hunter shook off the thoughts and headed for the shower room. He stepped inside, and Exile was there, getting ready to shower.

"Hey...." Hunter said.

"Hey......" Exile replied. The two just stared at each other, but Hunter broke it by pulling off his boxers, and headed to the shower. Exile did the same, and followed Hunter. Hunter himself was well built and muscular, with soft gold fur all over his body. His balls were a decent size, and he extended to about eight inches. Hunter took a shower head, and Exile right beside him, which made Hunter a little nervous. Exile was bigger than Hunter slightly, and he outweighed Hunter in every department, especially in the unmentionables. His balls were huge, and sheath as intimidating, but he was straight as an arrow, or so he let on. Although they were emotionally close, Exile still made him nervous slightly, mostly because he never told Exile about his sexuality. Close as they were, Hunter still doubted Exile would understand for some reason, and he didn't want to risk losing him as a friend.

"You don't mind do you?" Exile asked.

"No, it's okay." Hunter plainly said, trying to avoid looking at Exile.

The two showered for awhile, and Exile spoke up. "So...what do you think did this to Blitz?" Exile asked.

In truth, Hunter had an idea, but he kept it hidden.

"I really don't know.....but whoever did this....." Hunter began. Hunter was cut off

"Comrade, he was about to die in my arms...I never felt so terrible.....it felt like I did this to him....I..." Exile sobbed.

"Oh comrade!" Exile embraced Hunter with all he had, and began sobbing into Hunter's fur. Hunter was a little shocked, but he gently embraced Exile, cradling him.

"I'm sorry comrade for bring so weak....I just can't take it...." Exile muffled from Hunter's chest.

"It's okay......nobody is that strong to endure what you just saw...it's fine, let it all out...shhhh...." Hunter soothed.

Exile continued to sob into Hunter, and Hunter just shut his eyes and held him. Hunter had the urge to explore Exile, but he knew better to not to take advantage of someone, that was just wrong. Moreover Exile was his closest thing to a brother, and that gave more reason to be respectful. Exile looked up and gave Hunter a friendly kiss on the cheek, and said "Thank you comrade...."

"No problem....let's get ready for our evaluation" Hunter replied.

Hunter was relieved he didn't pop a boner in front of Exile, although it probably wouldn't have made a difference at that point. Exile and Hunter were so emotionally distraught anything could've happened. Hunter also thought sex was special, and was meant to be shared with someone you really care about. He had sex with Colleen once, but it just felt so hollow, he thought she was the one, but he was wrong. He and Colleen had "dated" on and off, but there was never another session. The two Rovers suited up, and met Colleen along the way heading towards Shepherd's office. Colleen grasped Hunter's hand and smiled, Hunter smiled back. They reached the office, and Colleen was called in first, she was in there for about and hour, then Exile the same, and then came Hunter.

"Hunter, please sit down, now tell me what happened." Shepherd said. Hunter explained all he could, but he left the parts about the mental experiences out.

"Is that all?" Shepherd asked.

"Yes..." Hunter said with his head down.

"You're lying, now tell me what's wrong. You're not the honest leader for nothing, you know." Shepherd said, smiling slightly.

"Well.....I had these massive experiences....they were frightening...." Hunter said with his head down.

"Experiences..?" Shepherd asked.

"In one, the hall was covered in blood and Blitz was calling for help, in another I saw him being tortured.....and the last one....." Hunter trailed off.

He couldn't finish, it was too frightening.

"Yes....?" Shepherd asked. "I can't....it's too much." Hunter said on the verge of tears.

"Please tell me Hunter, I might have a better understanding if I knew everything." Shepherd forced.

"I saw a little girl with long black hair with piercing red eyes, she told me Blitz was her vessel....." he said, holding his sobs back.

Shepherd's eyes then had a haunted look to them, as if he knew what Hunter was talking about.

"Master...?' Hunter asked.

"Thank you Hunter...you've been a great help, now if you'll excuse me, I have some work to do." Shepherd somewhat shortly said.

"Master? What is...?" Hunter started. "I'll tell you in time. Now go and get some rest."

Hunter nodded, and then asked, "May I see Blitz?" Hunter asked.

Shepherd looked at Hunter, and said "Yes, but only you."

"Thanks," Hunter replied.

Hunter left the room, and saw Exile and Colleen were gone, so Hunter left for the medical facility. Hunter punched in his override code, and went onto Blitz's room, he was dead asleep. He was covered in bandages and hooked up to life support and so many IV's, it made Hunter's heart break. He pulled up a chair, and sat beside Blitz, just looking at him.

"Blitz....I'm so sorry...I should've stood up for you....please forgive me. Please open your eyes...." Hunter pleaded softly, stroking his face.

Blitz was totally unresponsive, and the only sound was the beeping of the heart rate monitor. He took Blitz's hand, and pressed his face into it, treasuring the feel and scent.

"Please wake up....." Hunter said softly. "I'm sorry..." Hunter began to cry softly, and laid his head gently on Blitz's lap, soaking the sheets.

Suddenly, a massive experience began to overtake Hunter again.

You cannot save him.....leave him be, he's mine! The little girl said evilly, touching Blitz's face.

"Leave him alone!" Hunter demanded, trying to grab her.

You cannot stop me.....don't even try.....the world must come to an end.....with this dog as my vessel! The girl said disappearing.

"What do you want?!" Hunter demanded. You will soon find out......you will relive my nightmare.....whether by my hand or by the one's you love...in time....

The experience ended, and Hunter was back in reality with a sleeping Blitz.

Who is she?! So full of darkness....I need to save Blitz no matter what!

Hunter looked at Blitz, who was breathing softly with the help of the machine. Hunter began to stroke Blitz's chest slowly, then pulled back the sheets for a better inspection. There were so many bandages; it made Hunter's heart sink even more. Blitz's lower body was still uncovered, so Hunter could see everything quite clearly. Blitz was sexually abused as well, his crotch covered in scratches, and ball sac. Hunter's rage began to boil, how could anyone do this?! Hunter couldn't help but kiss Blitz's crotch gently, trying to somehow cover up the torture, and scratches. A few tears fell in the process, running down between Blitz's inner thighs. Hunter gently lifted up Blitz's leg so he could get a look at his other injury. It was horrible. There were traces of blood and deep scratches around his entrance where something had been jammed up with great force; it made Hunter's skin crawl. Hunter set him back down, and just stroked his body gently, hoping for some response. Hunter knew Blitz was in bad shape, but he climbed in with him and cuddled him gently, listening to his heart beat. Still no response, which made Hunter go even colder.

"Blitz...I love you.....don't go out on me....." Hunter said whispering, slowly drifting off to sleep.

Hunter could've sworn he felt Blitz's arm wrap around him, but he shook it off and went to sleep.

"Blitz....I love you...."

"And I you....Hunter...."

With one final thrust, they were tied, with Blitz on top. The two canines were basking in a glorious afterglow; Hunter had forgotten how many times they had taken each other. Blitz had made a full recovery within a few weeks, and Hunter confessed his love to him, he was surprised Blitz felt the same way. He was so beautiful with his short black and brown fur, and stub of a tail. He had the body of a god, and his length extended to 10 inches, and was pretty thick. Hunter also realized how caring and sensitive the canine could be, but also tough and protective as well. Hunter was the exact the same way, so the two didn't seem fruity at all, it simply seemed they were just two men who bonded emotionally deep, and nothing more. Something had drastically changed Blitz's personality as well. He was no longer the whiny, narcissistic idiot he used to be. He was now laid back, and completely chilled.

"I have a surprise for you....." Blitz said devilishly. Hunter got up, and watched the sexy Doberman sway his beautiful ass across the room. Then suddenly Blitz fell to the floor, and began to convulse violently. Hunter got up and shook him, but he dissipated into ash. The room was then engulfed in flames, and the little girl appeared once again.

Sorry for the interruption......but like I said he's mine...the world shall soon fall! She proclaimed.

"Give him back!" Hunter demanded. Follow me if you dare......She disappeared. An entrance in the flame opened, and Hunter ran. He saw the horrific scenery, hacked bleeding bodies, and blood all over the hallway. It made his stomach curl, but he had to get to Blitz. You see the evil I have unleashed? My dreams are consumed by fear....and so will yours; as long as you are attached to this dog you love so! Her voice rang out. "Blitz!" Hunter shouted. Blitz appeared before him and then began to mutate. His face becoming....."No.....NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Hunter screamed.
