A party and travel partners
The feline grooms himself taking his sweet sweet time while getting his fur all shiny and silky keeping an eye on the boy and his caretaker as he doesn’t wants it to get late for them, they had managed to get an invitation and a seat for the ship’s cook even if the party was intended for high ranking officers, the planet’s politicians, investors and some of the key civilian staff that will be travelling to the colony such as scientists and engineers as well as some city planners.
The fox looks down as he is brushed too, he felt rather restrained in these new clothes, usually as an adult it doesn’t bothers but right now it feels awful somehow.
The cat uses some perfume and massages his body as it impregnates with his fur before going to the little boy “You bought a lotion for him? If not this may do”
The boy stares at the cat “I still have mine, I don’t want to smell like honey and cinnamon I’d rather have a nice pine wood scent or another kind of musk or share with you” Complains as he opens his handbag and start to work on it himself “I’d rather have my personal touch” Speaks in quite a calm yet stern way.
The feline nods as he sets a ring on one of his fingers and another one on his tail almost at the tip setting it right for it to not fall down.
The fox complains about the stupid sleeve like piece of cloth on his tail and the tight tie before looking at his reflection “I look like a buffoon, I wouldn’t be caught dead wearing this as an adult” He notices some frills on the pocket of his black vest “I am so overdressed”
Gabriel nods and holds his hand “Now lets wait outside for the lady” The boy pulls his hand and sets it in his pocket before sitting on the couch then starts with fiddle with his new glasses and his pad downloading a good book and transferring some data of his games into his pads.
The feline sighs loudly “Can you try to pretend to not be a little asshole at the party? I would appreciate it a lot, you don’t have an idea of how much” Speaks as he sits in front of the boy.
“Now look and listen. I know that you don’t care about anything anymore but please this is really important for me and maybe it is important for you as well as it might impact you when you grow older and you reclaim your old position”
The boy puckers his lips “I know the drill, talk, talk, talk, look cute, try to eat politely and don’t expect me to dance, never did it as an adult don’t have to do it as a child” Looks at him “You have to respect me on that”
The cat nods a couple of times “Deal but I don’t want you to missbehave, I want you to be a good boy”
The boy grumbles and nods “Yes but please don’t pretend to care and be a parent and when I think it is time to leave for me I will leave”
Gabriel nods “Understood, at last you are willing to speak like an adult I am glad” Speaks as he checks the boy’s reaction, he notices how he hit a nerve but better leaves the things like that, he had a rather long conversation with a senile lady about the boy. Being the biological parents and raising the boy 2 times gave them access to a lot of information that they can pass on.
They start to chat about the ship’s developement and the new issues since the ship is going to be full of civilians with the bare minimal knowledge about spacefaring quite literally as they must have been practicing security procedures for 2 weeks at most.
The fox shrugs, he knew what to do and how to act but it is not his problem anymore, the cat can notice that he is just being dismissed with disdain
“Raphiel” Speaks sternly “We need to discuss about the status of your room” tries to get his attention “Now that we are at port we can send them back to your house or your office”
The boy perks his ears “You ca”
The cat nods “Yes I can and that is the reason why I am going to make a deal with you”
The foxlet clenches his fists “Speak”
Gabriel stands up “You have to think about sharing that room with another child and an adult or you have to sleep either at the crew quarters and behave like a true cadet or go to a civilian por”
The boy bolts up like a spring “You don’t have the authority to do that as my contract”
The cat nods “You contract says that you have to complete the trip and provide your theoretical knowledge, but I decide if I take it or not”
The fox growls “Whatever”
The black furred feline raises a finger “Better think well about it, you have 3 days to decide”
The boy is about to start to yell again as the doors are opened and the husky lady is ready with her more moderate dress “I should be as that” crosses his arms as he is held by both hands quite firmly both adults not letting him go.
The boy looks around slightly impressed by the decoration of the place as he was expecting something formal yet not outlandish. He sees all sort of decorations made out of the finest materials, the food is quite traditional for the capital world yet it uses all sort of different spices and substitute ingredients used in other colony planets. The music is quite soothing and it looks like the drinks are as varied as they could be, he really wished that he could take some of them.
He meets and speaks with all sort of politicians, scientists and personalities. He knew everyone in the military personnel already of course the fox had never been much of a party person and it was way harder to pretend when his little fussy mind reminded him so much of how much he wanted to go home.
The fox gulps as he feels an iron grip on his shoulder and turns to see the rather large wolf holding it then sees the grinny cheetah and the serious coyote behind him.
The fox bashfully looks down before standing straight, he was pretty much wearing the same thing than the adults the gala uniform fitting for his former rank, he stands on firm position and looks at him “Good night sir, it’s a pleasure to see you tonight admiral, I hope that you are pleased about us bringing the ship… Mostly sound and safe and mostly intact”
The cheetah looks at the boy “Oh I bet that you did everything in your little paws in order to fulfill your mission”
The fox nods and bows, he is about to speak as the wolf interrupts the rebuttal “Rather pleased, We weren’t expecting combat on the travel between Zoaria and Toshak but we do expect combat between Toshak and Rannuk”
The fox nods “I understand sir I will do my best in order to help in any way possible”
The cheetah is about to speak as the coyote bluntly interrupts “I know that you will but then again you are not going to be to useful about that right? We should disclose any battle plans with your new captain but we are not here for that or to mock each other right Wyn?” Scolds both captains as she pays attention to the admiral again
The wolf nods “Oh you are Right Ann, this is a party, we should try to relax and enjoy, oh do you know my daughter? She is a cutie about your age, you should meet each other, she is about here, oh you 2, wait for me at the adults table and get, treats are on me” Laughs as pretty much everything is free.
The admiral Nicolai’s hand feels rather rough and strong, a real military man unlike the other 3, an administrator, a medic and an engineer all turned in soldiers at the rebellion and later into captains, he himself had 3 regressions under his belt like the fox but unlike it he all of them were due old age.
He looks at the young foxlet “My daughter is a little angel, you will get along pretty well” Speaks as he walks towards a little girl giggling and chatting with other regressed children “Oh Posey, he is the young handsome lad that I told you about, good looking right?”
All the girls start to giggle and laugh then the wolf girl speaks “Oh he looks like a bookworm to me daddy”
The fox blushes madly as he bowls “Raphiel Serizade pleased to meet you all”
She stands and twirls for the boy “Posey Bolpier pleased to meet you captain”
The wolf laughs “Well with introductions made, play nice and I will be on an ear’s reach if you 2 need something” He nods as he leaves to speak with what will be the governor of the colony at least until its developed enough to get elected governors.
The fox laughs awardly and sits down
Posey smiles “You are not used to all this of being a kid right? Even if its not your first trip back to puphood?”
One of the girls chuckles “Cute, if you don’t want him can I keep him?”
The wolf sits down and pats a seat “Oh you may but I need to pretend to like him a lot so my father stops bothering me”
The fox sits next to her “Oh you don’t need to do that after all I know how awkward it must be for you?”
She starts laughing “I didn’t meant that way, sorry! Girls, girls, who wants kids right now being honest?” They all start to negate and complain about motherhood, they were both too young for that having only 1 to 2 regressions under them
A tiger rubs her chin “It shouldn’t be that bad right Darla?”
The Ferret smiles “Oh children are quite wonderful but in this era you girls can wait all what you want for that. Yet you have to understand that there will be prospecting boys in the colony and some of us are traveling to be able to bear children without all the paperwork, of course I would feel taken aback if my son decided that he wanted to have a family, he must be about your age”
They giggle “Oh so much wisdom Darla”
The ferret laughs “Wait and see” The fox noticed something odd in her speech pattern, she seems to be older than his own parents but he ignores the fact as he hears all the gossiping not finding too much fun in that.
The night seems to be eternal and he eats pretty well as there is not a lot that he can do, when the girls are pretty hard in conversation he stands up to get something to drink.
A blue skunk walks towards the boy “Oh a pleasure to meet you, My name is Gustavo, Mister Raphiel, do you have a couple of minutes?”
The fox stares at the skunk, he seems way too cheerful to be someone that he knows, he notices his clothes, not as fine as pricey as everyone’s else “Do I know you Gustavo?”
The skunk nods as he pulls out a padd “Oh no, I am sorry. I am a historian, a teacher and a reporter. I already spoke with the other captains but I wanted to speak with you”
He nods “Ahhhhh I see…. So?” His tone is quite annoyed
The young man sits down and pulls out his pad “I want to know what do you expect of the trip?” Asks as he pulls out a stylus and touches the table
The fox thinks “Not too much, honestly this was supposed to be something about picking supplies, researching tools and people, dropping them and then going back home”
He nods and writes on the table leaving no mark or trace as everything is in the computer “Ah! Why do you think that you were picked?”
The fox hums “I just picked the job, it was an offer to all the captains available and my area of expertise is not crucial for the mission”
The skunk takes notes and asks about the boy’s feelings about the travel, his desires, he asks about his past completely out of topic as he writes mostly about things after and before some crucial events.
They speak for about 40 minutes the fox warming up and telling stories to the generation 0 skunk, odd to have a fresh fur doing something as daring as colonizing. He learns some things about the boy like that his parents are already at the new planet as they want to have another child and how pumped he is about the trip as he had never boarded a spaceship.
The fox gets more and more comfortable as he answers more questions, the skunk too, they got to the point where they were speaking about random stuff more than doing an interview.
Gustavo collects himself before asking “Oh can you relate me the incident on your way to Toshak?”
The fox is about to speaks as he feels a hand on his shoulder “Oh hello Raphy, You vanished I thought that you were gone” She looks at the skunk “Oh hihi Mister skunk, I am interrupting something?”
The skunk nods no “Oh you aren’t young lady”
As the skunk starts to take some air to speak she hugs the fox “Oh I see, then can I borrow him? Pretty please” She giggles a bit as she twiddles back and fro “Pretty please?”
The fox blushes and freezes in place not used to the physical contact yet as she blinks a couple of times
Gustavo nods “Oh you are a cutie, of course you can borrow him if he is ok with that, such a casanova”
The boy blushes deep red as he is pulled by the girl and whispers “Lets do something real fun” Teases as he rubs the boy’s ear who nods as he is half dragged
The skunk grins before going to interview something else, then the fox notices the skunk’s equipement and press pass.
The girl takes the boy out “Thanks for being my victim, I don’t like parties too much and I didn’t had a way to politely leave the table” She sits down on the stairs
The boy rubs his neck “Oh you could have told me before, I am uncomfortable in that sort of clutter of people if I am honest myself” Speaks as he takes a seat next to her.
They laugh a bit and speak about random stuff and hobbies, it was oddly nice as she seemed to like many of the fantasy books and games that he plays and if she doesn’t she seems interested enough in his conversation, she even laughs at his nerdy jokes the girl bringing a side of him that he hides very well
“I am sorry for my father, he can be a real pain in the butt, he wants grandchildren and is hoping that this is the cycle when he gets them” he notices how she moves gingerly, she had been doing that since she went to kidnap him
The fox tilts his head “Are you hurt”
She nods no before pulling out a bottle of wine from under her dress “Oh this was killing my tight”
The boy looks around “Hey what are you doing with that? Hell will break loose if they see you with that” She opens the bottle and serves some of it in a plastic cup “Oh come on, I need some relief and you too” Speaks as she offers the glass “Adults can be so bothersome all the time, you only look little and dumb but it doesn’t means that you are little and dumb”
The fox stares at the cup and takes a breath, it smells so nice, he can almost taste the berries and the chocolate from the cask, He hesitates about drinking or not as he hears the doors being slam open.
The wolf looks at the kids “What do you have there?” Asks the admiral as the boy stares with the eyes wide open “I hope that it is soda” The wine smell is unmistakable and the dumb girl had picked one that can be smelled from a mile away almost
The fox sets it down “I can explain! Pl”
The wolf grabs the boy’s ear “Shut and don’t cause a scene” He grabs the girl’s ear too and pulls both pups trying to not cause an uproar but they can be seen by the people paying attention to the windows which weren’t many.
The boy whines as he begs and tries to explain while he is lead to his rental car. The feline who noticed everything goes behind them trying to apologize for the rascal’s actions but the admiral says that he will take matters on his own hands but that is good if he gets someone to pick the boy and take him back to the hotel for a good grounding.
Once they are alone in the car and the doors locked the boy tries to explain everything as he is shushed by the man “Posey”
The girl rubs her ear “I didn’t see any kind of bugs or mics in the car so we can speak freely and you pulled my ear rather hard dad”
The boy looks at her demeanor changer “Wh”
He is hushed by the girl “For what I have researched he is mildly good at lying but bad at acting so you may have to pelt his hide afterwards”
He nods as he looks at the boy and starts to unbuckle his belt “May you turn around darling?”
The girl giggles “Hell no dad, I want to watch with all details, as you said he is quite cute as a kid and he is a bit handsome… Too much of a dork for me but I won’t be missing a glimpse of that cute butt”
The boy gets red as the man gumbles “Ok fine fine” Speaks before looking at the boy “Now, hush, listen and then seal your lips” Speaks as the fox nods
The wolf relaxes “Someone wants to cover its ass to not be fired and probably all the guild will be pinned on you” Speaks as he looks at the boy “The guild may offer to pay you all your contract no matter if you cut the trip short. Don’t do it!” Speaks as he fox boy blinks a couple of times a bit baffled about the issue
Raphiel frowns “Wh-What?” Asks as the wolf sits straight
“Listen pup, there is foul play in game right now” the boy nods as he twiddles. He groans as he grabs the boy’s hand “Get that ready” Speaks as he swabs the boy’s arm. The little boy squirms some more
Raphiel looks at the large wolf “Sir… Nicolai… What are you doing?!” Whines as the wolf holds his arm and injects something on it. The kit starts to feel a lot of nausea and the girl grabs him tightly before directing his mouth to a bag where he starts to puke, the boy feels a horrible fever and starts to pant.
The sobbing kid stops sobbing and his afraid body language becomes aggressive and more confident as he looks for something around the car.
The wolf smirks “Welcome back Captain, try to asset the situation and drink” He hands a glass to the boy, it reeks like alcohol
Everything hits the boy “Someone is planning to betray me in consequence of the attack in the route 17” Speaks as he looks down “I must not take any offer, I must finish the trip may I ask why?” He takes a sip noticing the lack of that stomach burn that he used to feel when he started drinking, its a virgin drink
The wolf nods “There are discrepancies between your flying log and the real world”
The kit nods “The attack, there was nothing in the sector, it was a complete ambush. To a ship carrying metric ton of arms and supplies as well as terraforming equipment”
Nicolai nods “There are 2 options, either you or someone at the command center did a worse than terrible job or someone in the command center is a mole”
The boy rubs his arm “And how do you know that I am not the mole and how do I know that you aren’t selling me?” Asks
The black furred canine grabs a paddle “You will have to trust in me and I have my informants and methods, now hurry up and lay on my lap a hide tanning usually don’t take too long”
He groans and rubs his bottom “Why did you used on me? Its doing wonders”
The wolf hits his buttocks very very hard, this feel like a spank intended for an unrully old teen cadet than one for a child “About that, forget completely about it” Spanks the boy once again, Gabriel’s spanks felt like a gentle caress next to that “It will be our little secret”
The boy bloodily screams as he is hit twice, he understood 2 things, this was blackmail and this could become in part of his everyday life if they get him for betraying the fleet, to be processed and prosecuted by the empire or by the federation “Understood understood! Please NO! NO NO NOOO!” He squirms and tries to rub his but as he bites his lower lip, tears coming out but nothing more than that.
The wolf starts to spank the young boy as he moves his hands away, these were way more reasonable but still rather hard for a kid his age, he wanted to rush his work, after all they had been locked for a long time and the boy should look rather miserable for this to be believable “Move your hands and your tail out of the way? Or should I hold them like if you were a real child”
The boy bites his pride as he raises his butt, he cannot believe that he is willingly accept and even asking for a spanking with the position that he took.
The wolf hits again and again as the boy’s bottom starts to get redder and redder, he whines and yips as he is hit sobbing louder and louder then bites the back of his hand rather hard shutting his eyes quite tight “Ngh! NNNNJJ NNANGH”
The foxy tries to stay quiet and still as he cried, if before he hated crying now he feels that it is really shameful -Stop, please, ah stop…. Hurts hurts hurts- runs in his mind as his pride doesn’t let him to bawl openly while he fidgets.
The wolf girl looks at the boy and at some point turns away with a deliberate turn letting the fox know that she is not watching anymore
The boy starts to whine and sob as his butt is battered, he can see in one of the mirrors for makeup that his bottom is getting real red, almost blistered “Pleaseeeee its enough” Yips and tightens his body
Posey keeps looking away “Captain, you drank alcohol and If your reccord is correct you must be between 6 to 8”
The boy starts to wheeze covering his whines trying to not cry and then realises it, he drank alcohol. He will be lucky if he is able to sit straight within the next couple of days
The boy bites harder drawing some blood from his paw as the spanking continues and that pink turns into a cherry red “NNMMM GHHHAA NNNMMM!!!”
The admiral stops and gets his large digit in the boy’s mouth, it tasted quite salty “Stop bitting yourself, there is no shame in crying. I know that I am hurting you rather baddly” Speaks as he sets his paw on the boy’s shoulder reassuringly.
The fox sobs a bit and starts to blubber as he feels that strong hand, surprised that he is not rubbing him or anything like that, then he blushes deeply as he was thinking about the wolf touching or caressing his butt to comfort him like a child, no he is instead supporting him like an adult no matter in what position he is right now.
Raphiel starts to sob more and more as he starts to cry loudly, his throat feels really sore as he starts his childish bawling then the man starts to hit him again, the boy can notice that it is real bad, darkening even more.
The little boy wiggles and squirms a bit but is not the kicking and struggling expected from a child, somehow he felt in control of the situation even if this was happening. Why can’t it be like that when he is with Gabriel or with Kathy?
After a good set of whack on the rump he helps the boy to stand and re dresses him “You look good in that uniform” He places both of his hands on the boy’s shoulders “While you are under my command you will be protected. I know that you are not a betrayer and I am doing this for a friend too” Speaks as he rubs the boy’s cheek his tone relaxes and sounds more fatherly, now he remembers this man better, he never served under him but he reminds the other wings under speaking about the wolf as a father for his men.
The boy keeps crying and hugs the wolf tightly nodding. He rubs the boy’s back a couple of times before helping him to get down noticing that the cat was waiting for them with an upset expression.
Gabriel grabs the boy’s hand and pulls him “Why the hell did you do that?! Don’t you know how bad is that for your health and development!” Yells at the boy as he tightens his grip expecting a battle
The fox keeps bawling loudly “I am really sorry Gabriel!” there was no fighting, no struggle, no nicknames or excuses “I prumis I won do it agan” Speak in a really deformed way as before yipping really loudly as the admiral pushes him gently by the butt
The wolf looks at the feline “Well captain, I think that the lesson is learned, by your report I understand that you adjudicated the role of guardian of the boy to yourself and I believe in your parenting skills even if you don’t have children of your own” Speaks as he pats the boy’s head “But I think it is enough already for one night”
The feline salutes and nods as the wolf laughs “We don’t need to get all 10-4 right now, we are not discussing a military matter but more about a little child who believed that he knew better than the adults. Just get him home dress him to sleep and ground him until the take-off day”
The cat nods “Oh you are quite reasonable. Thanks sir” Speaks as he pulls the boy back to the car to return to the hotel.
Nicolai gets in the driver’s seat of his car as Posey relaxes “Is he really all that important?” Asks as she starts to get another needle ready
The wolf looks at her thru the mirror “Only a droplet of water at the sea, quite insignificant if you want me to be honest. But even if he is guilty i want to hurt them hard and is either them or the fox”
The girl nods as he uses the device to inject herself wincing a bit before starting to work.
