Chapter Seven

"Uncle Jon and the Struggle for Morality"

By

Furry Sith Lord

"Hello?" Jon said into his cell phone after answering a number he did not recognize. At first he was not going to answer but then he was afraid it might be the doberman trying to get in contact.

"Hello may I speak to Jon please?" a voice he did not recognize said. The voice was soft but held a strength behind it but it was not the doberman.

"Speaking," Jon replied suspiciously wondering if this was some sales call or scammers.

"Hello Jon, this is Lou, I'm your friend Leggo's husband. I don't believe we've met." Lou said, trying to sound cheerful.

"No, we've never met. All I know about you is from what Leggo told me."

"Same with me. So I believe he spoke to you about tutoring our slaves." Lou replied.

"Are they slaves? The way Leggo was talking you'd think they were your own fawns."

"That's a possibility but I've never been one to rush things. Don't get me wrong, I do love those cubs but it's still too soon to call them anything other than slaves," Lou hated himself for lying again. He knew in his heart they stopped being slaves the moment they entered the mansion. With everything his father taught him it was difficult not to behave as his father did.

"So how can I help you?" Jon was suspicious as to why he was calling and not Leggo. Had he blown the meeting earlier. If he was lucky then maybe he could get out of teaching them and maybe slip Lou a hint that there was a group out trying to kill the cubs.

"You really hurt Leggo by what you said about them. He was willing to just end your friendship but I stuck up for you, he's willing to give you another chance."

"So I'm supposed to thank you?" Jon retorted.

"Would some gratitude be out of place for saving your friendship? I just understand you and when I first saw the slaves I felt nothing but revulsion. Leggo fell paws over head in love with them and my love for him was greater than my feelings towards them. The more time I spent with them, the more I too fell in love." Lou said and Jon felt the rock in his stomach grow bigger.

"I don't think you are quite as clever as you think. You may think you know me but I have no intention of falling paws over head in love with...them. Leggo is the only one I care about and I don't want to see him get hurt. Those... those things are monsters! Mark my words, they will hurt him one day and no matter how many times I'll say 'I told you so' it will never be enough." Jon responded.

"Well thank you for your honesty, it will make finding another tutor much easier."

"Hold on, I never said I wouldn't teach them." Jon interrupted.

"Then you need to make up your mind. I'm not going to allow you to victimize them while teaching them."

"Look Lou, I understand your feelings but I can also put my personal issues aside. When they reveal their true natures I want to be there for Leggo to help pick up the pieces. I just feel that as his lover you should consider what they'll do to him when they take off their cutie masks and show their real faces."

"Indeed Jon, but what will happen when that day comes and you see they are not the monsters you think they are?" Lou retorted.

"Then... I'm canine enough to admit I was wrong. Can you do the same?"

"I could most definitely, however this still doesn't answer the question. Why should I allow you near them when you hate them so much?"

"Because I'm the best and if you want them to be the best you need the best to teach them. I'll agree to put my personal feelings aside. Let's make a deal, give me a shot and if you feel that I am not doing my best you can get rid of me. Three sessions, give me three sessions then you can evaluate me and if I don't live up to expectations I'll leave and you'll never see me again. If I succeed then you'll know you have the best teaching your... slaves to be the best." Jon stated.

"You'll be watched at all times and the times you think you're alone are the times my cameras are recording you. If you so much as hurt a single hair of their fur I will end your existence, got it?" Lou threatened.

Lou walked into the living room and found that the coffee tables were moved against the walls and the chairs were placed next to them as well. A large center spot on the carpet was exposed and Leggo was on the floor wrestling the slave cubs. He desperately wished they loved him as much as he loved them. All three had stripped off their tee shirts and despite their best efforts Leggo dominated the two cubs by his sheer size alone. Not to mention that he cheated by using tickles to weaken their holds.

"Family meeting," He stated calmly after clearing his throat but he went unnoticed as they continued to fight. "Family Meeting!" He said a little bit louder and this time Tyger stopped and ran to quickly put his shirt back on. Leggo and Lyon saw him run and they quickly stopped and Leggo was on the floor, on his back, breathing heavily as he smiled.

"Hi," he said weakly and Lou sighed then noticed that Tyger stood in front of him in a submissive posture with his head lowered. Lou put his hooves on his hips before addressing the young cub as he remained statuesk with his head bowed and he wondered where the cub had learned this.

"What is the meaning of this?" Lou said, directing his question towards Tyger but it was generally for all three of them.

"Just a bit of rough housing." Leggo replied lamely and Lyon quickly pulled his shirt on and copied his brother's stance. Leggo sat up and reached out and grabbed the cubs and held them in his arms. "Aren't they cute." He smiled showing his fangs then he whispered to the cubs. "Come on just like I showed you." They both smiled and showed their fangs like Leggo did. Lou smirked but he noticed the look on Tyger's face and could tell he was not happy about this.

"That's my boy," Lou thought to himself and suddenly realized he was playing favorites.

"Tyger, did you subdue Leggo?" he asked, trying to sound stern.

"I almost had him, Master." Tyger said.

"But he cheats! He uses tickles as a weapon." Lyon interrupted.

"Lyon," Lou shouted. "It's rude to interrupt your brother, especially when I asked him the question." Lou corrected and Lyon lowered his head again and his eyes began to fill with tears. Leggo grabbed him and gave him a big hug and whispered in his ear.

"Everyone makes mistakes." he then rubbed his back to help him feel better.

"Lyon, did you subdue Leggo?" Lou asked in the same tone and manner he had previously asked Tyger. It only took Tyger a fraction of a second to catch on.

"I..." he stammered as he tried to speak.

"But he cheats, he uses tickles as a weapon." Tyger interrupted and with pleading eyes he looked towards Lou waiting to be yelled at.

"Tyger," Lou shouted louder at him than he did Lyon. "It's rude to interrupt your brother, especially when I asked him the question!" Lou corrected and Tyger lowered his head but flashed a quick smile towards Lou. Lyon wiped the last of the tears from his eyes unaware of what really happened.

"You said this was a meeting?" Leggo asked. He sat with his legs crossed on the floor then he scooped both cubs and had them sit on his lap.

"A friend of Leggo's is going to be coming by to tutor you both so that you are caught up for when school starts," Tyger noticed the scent from Leggo was mixed between sadness and anger. "I've invited him over for dinner to meet you both so I expect you both to be on your best behaviors as you introduce yourselves to him."

"Make every effort because he'll be on his best behavior too." Leggo stated and the look Lou gave him indicated something unspoken had been said between them.

"So I want you both to go wash up and get ready because he'll be here in an hour," Both cubs rushed off and Lou yelled after them. "Don't forget to put on some decent clean clothes too!" He sighed feeling like they had not heard what he yelled towards them.

"Well?" Leggo asked.

"I'm sorry, I know he's your friend but I don't really trust him. I'm willing to give him a chance and I figured if I invite him over to meet them it might make things better." Lou said.

"No, I feel the same way. I... I just never knew Jon could be like this, he was always the happy go lucky puppy that made me feel like less of an outsider. Even among the other canines I was the only real wild canine, the rest were regular dogs. He managed to help bring us all together so we were all friends and not wolf versus dogs."

"Things change. people change. But you never know, he may change his mind about them after they meet." Lou replied and walked over and began to rub his back the way he had rubbed Lyon's.

"I hope you're right."

For the first time we heard the doorbell ring and neither Lyon nor myself knew what it was. It sounded like a loud bell ringing and we both ran to the living room as we saw a servant opening the front door and welcoming in a yellow colored dog. The servant took his coat and hat and when Master and Leggo entered the servant announced him as Jon.

He ran over to Leggo to try and lick his face but Leggo quickly pushed him away before he could. He expressed a brief look of sadness then turned and bowed towards Master Lou. The Master clasped his hands in a friendly gesture and shook it. He said something but I couldn't hear what they said. We were able to hear the Master shouting our names and we ran up to meet the guest.

"Wow they're so young I doubt they are even a year old yet in feline years," Jon said and he bent low to look at us. Lyon clung to me and hid behind me as he stared at us. He reached out and grabbed my face in his paws and I looked towards Master and Leggo to see their expression.

"Relax, I won't hurt you, I just need to see how old you are." he said softly, then his fingers went into my mouth and he made me open my jaw as he examined my fangs. "Ahhh just as I thought, he's only roughly seven months old." he replied and he released me and withdrew his fingers. I walked over to the Master trying to licked the taste of his paws out of my mouth.

"May I be excused?" I asked him politely. "I'll be right back." he nodded and I quickly went to the bathroom to wash my mouth out. It was not that his fingers were dirty or anything but having someone else's paws in your mouth just has a strange taste to it.

"This one is between six to seven months old so roughly six and a half." Jon told them as he did the same thing to Lyon. I just finished when Lyon entered and started to wash his mouth out.

"How old did he say you are?" I asked as I dried my face.

"Six and a half." he answered after he spat from gurgling and I handed him the towel I was holding.

"Told you I was older." I replied and Lyon punched my arm.

Jon released Lyon's maw and as he approached Lou, he gestured for him to go then bent slightly and whispered for him to hurry. Lyon rushed off as the adults continued.

"They're not a year old yet so when they start school they will be on par with the other cubs. I mean I could try and do advanced training but ultimately they really don't need it. Oh, that reminds me I forgot to check but are they cut by any chance?" Jon asked.

"Cut?" Leggo asked.

"Slave cubs are usually spayed or neutered to keep them docile." he said to Leggo. "No they are not fixed." he replied to Jon.

"I didn't think they were that young." Jon commented to himself.

"Is that a problem?" Lou asked, trying to hide the annoyance.

"No, not in the slightest. They look well rounded and in my honest opinion I don't think they need me." Jon remarked.

"Thank you for your time." Leggo quickly remarked and moved to escort Jon towards the door. Lou remarked under his breath for Leggo to 'stop' then he turned his focus back on Jon.

"You said you could give them a head start. How much of an advantage would this give them?" Lou asked. Leggo grabbed Lou's hoof and gripped it tightly but Lou acted as ikf the pain did not bother him.

"With me as their tutor I can excel them so that they are a year ahead of the others in their class." Jon boasted proudly and Leggo released Lou's hoof and whistled.

"When can you start?" Lou asked and rubbed his hand.

"Tomorrow, but if you want a few days to think about it."

"Any objection?" He asked Leggo without actually looking at him. Leggo scratched his head and quickly thought about it.

"No, no objection because I know Jon can do what he says." Leggo replied and a smile appeared on Jon's face.

"You won't regret it," Jon lied. "You'll have the smartest slave cubs in the school." he turned and saw the two cubs return and they smiled back at him which made him feel terrible. They were so tiny and here he was trying to trick their tender minds so he could kill them. Even Leggo seemed to be starting to forgive him but if he only knew the secret he was hiding from them.

"Have they been to a vet yet? If you plan to enroll them in school they need the proper medical paperwork showing they've had their rabies shots excetera." Jon said.

"I had not thought of that, you're right." Lou said.

I felt Lyon shiver and turned to look at him.

"Have you ever been to the vet before?" he asked me and I shook my head. I had no idea what a vet was. "I went to one and he poked and prodded me and put a thermometer up my butt." Lyon continued and this made me jump because I had no idea what a thermometer was.

"Did it hurt?" I asked dumbly.

"No, it feels weird." Lyon felt a hoof touch his shoulder.

"Did they give you a shot, a needle?" Lou asked and he bent down and looked Lyon in the eye. His face was compassionate and he carefully placed his other hoof on his chest as if to relax him.

"I... I don't remember." Lyon said his voice quivering in fear but Lou gave him a kiss on his head and reassured him. I think he was trying to make up for scaring the fur off him before.

I felt a pang of jealousy because he never reassured me like that. I reasoned that it might be because Lyon was a baby and not a big kid like me. Still I would have liked to be reassured like that considering how critical of me he always is. Even just a simple kiss and a 'try harder' would be better than him looking at me like he was about to give me a spank for being bad.

We turned back to see Jon and Leggo were quietly laughing to themselves about something. Jon suddenly had a clucking sound and they both started laughing again. Lou turned to Leggo and gave him a hard stare.

"Really?" he asked him and Leggo straightened up looking embarrassed. "Oh, where are my manners? Slaves this is your new teacher and he's a very good friend of ours. His name is Uncle Jon." Lou said.

"Uncle?!" Jon repeated and he looked as embarrassed as Leggo did. Leggo slapped him on the back and congratulated him. It was funny but with him blushing and his yellow fur his face looked orange, kinda."

"Let's eat." Leggo interrupted and he grabbed our hand and led us into the dining room.

"Now you understand your place, Uncle Jon, correct?" Lou asked.

"But I..."

"You are now part of the family. We are trusting you as if you are their flesh and blood. We both want you in their lives, and ours too. You have a big responsibility to live up to but I trust you. I trust you like Leggo trusts you. I know you will do your best, that is why you are now their uncle, understand?" Lou expressed and he gave a friendly smile.

"I need a promise from you first."

"Which is?" Lou asked.

"If I ever do anything to harm them... then you gotta promise me to make my death as painful as possible. I know Leggo would never be able to bring himself to do it, but I feel like I can trust you. Will you promise me?"

"I can assure you that should that ever happen I will make your suffering 10 times as painful before I allow you to die, understand?" Jon reached out and grabbed his hoof and shook it.

"Deal. I tend to be a judge of good character so I know that day will never come." Then Lou put his arm around Jon's shoulder and led him into the dining room.

This dinner was one of the best times in my life because both Uncle Jon and Leggo acted like a couple of puppies. They had an eating contest, then a burping contest, and then trying to see who could balance food on their noses then toss it into the air and catch it in their maws.

The Master just rolled his eyes and shook his head at their decorum but he kept scratching his head for some reason. He seemed bothered by it at first but after the fourth or fifth time he looked a l,ittle concerned but tried to keep the mood light. My brother and I were caught between two worlds because we wanted to join in with Uncle Jon and Leggo but we didn't want to make Master mad so he tried to remain reserved and dignified even though we were laughing at their antics.

As we were eating dessert I noticed some blood dripping from the roots of Master's antlers. He reached up then saw the look of alarm on my face then looked at his hoof and saw the blood. He cursed out loud and suddenly both his antlers fell to the table. Even Uncle Jon and Leggo stared in horror as Master took his napkin and held it to his head.

"Sorry guys, continue without me." he barked and he swiftly left the dining room. Uncle Jon looked at Leggo who calmly shrugged.

"Don't worry, it's fine he just gets a little embarrassed when it happens. He's fine, nothing to worry about." Leggo said calmly. I stood up and went and collected both antlers and held them close to my chest.

"Tyger?" Lego asked me and I knew he was wondering what I was doing.

"I want to keep these safe for the Master." I replied. He rose and came over to me and squatted down then took one of the antler's from m y paws.

"That's a great idea. One for you to keep safe and the other Lyon keeps safe." he replied and gave the antler he took to Lyon. Lyon hugged his in the same way I hugged mine. I was again feeling jealous because I wanted to protect them both but when I saw Lyon hold the one he had I felt better and it no longer bothered me.

"I think I should get going. This has been enough excitement for me for one night." Uncle Jon walked over to each of us and gave us each a kiss on the cheek and he said 'Goodnight nephew' after the kiss.

Leggo led Uncle Jon to the door and they hugged briefly before Uncle Jon left. We stood by watching everything as we held our antlers.

"Guys go get ready for bed and you can watch some TV but bedtime means bedtime and if you're not in bed at bedtime I'll be forced to give you both a spank, OK?" he said to us and we agreed then he went off to check on the Master to see if he was alright.

Lou was in the bathroom putting on some antiseptic and had gauze ready to wrap his head. Leggo casually walked in and a look of panic quickly flashed across his face but he quickly calmed as he saw it was Leggo.

"Cubs are taken care of and Uncle Jon left. He'll be back tomorrow to start schooling the cubs. heh, heh, they were sooo cute. Each one took an antler to keep it safe for you because they think you can reattach them." Leggo said smiling and that brought a smile to Lou's face.

"Good to know they care," he replied tenderly.

"Are you kitty-ing me? How many times does it take for you to get it? They both love you!"

"But for how much longer? Look at me, I'm a freak! I thought I had outgrown this and now..."

"Come on man, you look cute. like a little baby fawn," Leggo remarked and Lou grunted in displeasure. Leggo grabbed the bandages and started to wrap Lou's head. After finishing Lou laid his head against the wolf's chest and Leggo could smell sadness coming from this lover.

"Sorry I ruined the night, things looked like they were going well." Leggo began to pet him but he kept his paws away from the top where his antlers were. That area would be tender for about a day or so.

"You were right as usual, Jon fell paws over head in love with them. He said he'll be here tomorrow to begin teaching them. If you want I'll call the vet and see if we can get them appointments."

"Would it be alright if I took them? I have a few questions to ask the vet about making them our own." Lou said and Leggo stopped petting him and pulled his from his chest to look in his eyes.

"You mean you want to give them their freedom?" Leggo asked tenderly.

"I can't stand it any longer, I'm dying for them to call me father and to call you dad. they have enslaved me and I don't want to wait a second longer. I want my sons to be free and go to school like normal cubs and get in trouble like normal cubs and..." before he could finish his sentence Leggo grabbed him and kissed him. The wolf used his paws to rub the deer's body and began to loosen his clothing. He unbuttoned his shirt and pulled his sleeveless undershirt up so he could kneel and kiss the deer's stomach. Lou moaned in pleasure but Leggo suddenly stopped.

"You were right, right about everything and I nearly lost a friendship but you saved me once again." Leggo replied and Lou gently gripped his muzzle and pulled him to his feet.

"Come, slave." Lou said as he dragged the wolf towards their room for their role play adventure that evening.

Jon drove a short distance from the mansion and pulled over when he saw the doberman standing next to his car. A female fox was in the passenger seat and she looked very annoyed to be kept waiting.

"How'd it go?" the doberman asked.

"Excellent. They are convinced they can trust me and even gave me the nickname uncle." Jon replied and the doberman laughed...
