The Quest chapter 2
#2 of The Quest
The Quest chapter 2: Stephen meets Elenor and the sorceress Sabrina. Sabrina tells him what she needs done, but at a inn, Mala catches him doing something.
The next morning, Sabrina's castle.
Stephen felt someone shaking him awake, the first thing the young human saw is a wolf's head with brown head hair looking at him. She was wearing a sleeveless shirt covering a pair of 44 DD's compared to Mala's 36 DD's and a pair of knee length pants. But he recognized the coloring as that similar to a Husky breed of canine. "Uh, good morning. Where's Mala?", he asked the husky with wolf features.
Eleanor sighed. "Mala is checking on her teacher, she should be back in a few minutes. If you're wondering who am I, my name is Eleanor. I am a fighter, plus I teach people how to fight. Mala should be back in a minute." The wolf/husky looked Stephen over and considered him before saying,"You have possibility of being a fighter." She looked at him with her green eyes and walked out of the room.
'She's a friendly one.', he thought to himself watching the female canine walk out of the room. Stephen got out of bed walked to the balcony to check the view. The young human saw a regular size sun in the sky and a smaller one. The planet Sirus is settling in the horizon. "I wonder what the temperature is like during the day?", Stephen muttered to himself.
A set of slim hands grabbed his shoulders. "It's not that bad. The other sun is far away. To give you a reference, the distance of Jupiter to the sun in your solar system. So what do you think of this binary star system?", Mala asked him.
Stephen turned to the vixen noting that she was dressed in her outfit. He also noticed that she looked tired as he answered,"Uh, I think its pretty neat. Just like Tatooine on Star Wars, a movie I like."
Mala looked at Stephen and said,"Let's go to the dining area, where my teacher wants to talk to you." She told the young human to follow her and the vixen lead him out of her room.
The young human followed the vixen and asked,"If I am going to be here, do I get a room of my own while I am here?"
Stopping her walk, Mala turned to Stephen and asked,"You don't like sleeping with me? I'm sorry, there are only three rooms fit to sleep in at this castle. I could set you up with a place in the stables." The vixen looked at him as she waited upon his answer.
Thinking of sleeping with horses or what ever this planet had living in stables, ran thru his mind. He pictured a smelly cold place to sleep at night and then he thought of the warm vixen sleeping next to him. She cocked her head slowly to look at him. "Ok, I prefer sharing a bed with you. I don't want to sleep in the cold stables.", said the young male human looking at the vixen's back side.
The vixen looked hin up and down before saying with a smile,"Good choice. Lets just say I am a better alternative than freezing." She stroked the young human's cheek and walked on, leading him once more.
Stephen shivered and followed the vixen to the dining area.
Dining area, Sabrina's castle.
The dining area of the castle was of a pretty good size. Seated at the long table, Stephen saw Eleanor and a white colored female wolf seated there. Eleanor was in a discussion with the wolf with silver colored head hair. Stephen heard her say,"I thought you and Mala were going to get someone older? You ended up getting a human male who can't even shave yet. Mala, I think is in love with him."
"You weren't with us, so I choose who I thought can help us out. They're here, so we will discuss this matter at a later time.", Sabrina said to Eleanor.
The husky/wolf looked at the vixen and young human walking into the room. "Alright teacher, I just might bring Pete to help out.", Eleanor replied looking at the vixen and human male.
Mala and Stephen sat down at the table. Stephen looked at the white female wolf, who was known as Sabrina. He noticed by her movements that she was advanced in age and seemed tired. "So, how are you doing Stephen, and is my apprentice treating you fairly?", asked Sabrina, looking at him with her dark blue eyes.
Stephen shivered when the wolf looked at him, receiving a jolt when her eyes rested on him. The young human noted that her gaze was different than that of Mala's. Other than that Sabrina's eyes had round pupils compared to the cat like ones of Mala's, he could tell her gaze had seen much. His father had called it the thousand yard stare. "I am doing fine ma'am. Mala is treating me nicely. I have no issues with my treatment but why am I here?", he asked of Sabrina.
"Why am I here?", Sabrina said in her mature female voice. The wolf stared at the ceiling. "That's usually the first question from my new guests. Mala asked the same question when her mother brought her here when she was twelve. My apprentice here had changed the family cat's fur coloring from gray to bright yellow. I changed things back normal but she does see her parents once in a while. The reason you're here is that I need your help with some things.", she told him. She looked at Stephen again and said,"My students can't do what I need you for because as you noticed we're all females."
The young human male looked at the three female canines looking at him. He thought of how his mother had treated him and what if he demanded that he be returned home. He looked at the vixen Mala who was quiet, but he saw the pleading look in her blue eyes. Stephen looked over to Eleanor, who was now eating her breakfast. "Well, I guess I am stuck with Mala. Eleanor I think has a boyfriend from her body language.", the young human thought to himself. So the choices came down to helping these females out and going on an adventure or going back home to an abusive mother. 'She abandoned you! Go home and have the police take you to your father.', said a voice in his head. 'She'll say it was accidental and you'll end up back with her. Help out these females, plus you have the chance at a new life.', said another voice in his head. "Ok, I'll help you out. What do I need to do?", he asked in a even tone of voice. It was a plus that he saw Mala smile at him.
Sabrina breathed a sigh of relief. She said in answer,"I need you to get me four talismans located at different places in different parts of this world. All I can say is that I am being asked to do this by the leaders of my order. Those talismans were forgotten, but recently a apprentice discovered ancient writings about them. The order decided the way to protect our world is for someone to recover them and bring them to the order."
Stephen took in the information and nodded. He then said with seeming certainty,"Let me guess, most magic users are females, plus only males can handle these talismans?"
The white wolf looked at her two students nodding. "I chose well when I decided on you. Only males can handle those talismans, if one of students touches them, she'll get a very bad shock or burn." Sabrina sighed again and said,"Enough of this, lets eat our breakfast and finish this discussion after the meal."
Later outside of the castle in the courtyard.
Stephen looked around hearing strange sounds from the forest. Just another sign that he was not on Earth any longer but the birds and even insects seemed to rub it in that he was not home. He looked over at Eleanor, who was staring at him and holding a training staff. The husky/wolf was wearing leather armor and the young human moved his shoulders, loosening his muscles in the leather outfit he was wearing.
"Are you ready to defend yourself?", Eleanor asked. She saw him nodding he was and said,"Don't worry, Mala is a good healer. She'll put you back together." The wolf ran at Stephen, raising her staff to strike!
"Damn, she moves fast.", he thought to himself. CRACK!!. The two sticks collided as Stephen blocked Eleanor's attack. What Eleanor didn't know, was that three years ago, Stephen's father had taken him to different classes, to learn to defend himself. The young boy was considered by his teachers to be a good to excellent student. Eleanor was surprised that he became a challenge to her.
"I can't hit him, it's like he knows my moves.", the wolf thought to herself as she automatically blocked Stephen's attacks.
Minutes later, both combatants were exhausted and each of them were nursing bruises from hitting each other. Watching from the doorway, Mala grinned to herself looking at Stephen's slight muscular build. A body rush went thru her making her wet between her legs. "I am just going to take my time with him, but fate will always have him sleeping with me no matter where we end up at.", she said to herself. The vixen said a few phases quietly to herself. It must have been a spell that didn't require much, because the vixen only felt a slight drain of her energy.
Stephen performed the courtesy handshake with Eleanor. "Well, at least you'll be an easy student to train.", Eleanor said to him. The wolf saw Mala looking at them and continued,"But sorry, I have a boyfriend and I don't want that vixen mad at me again. The last time she gotten mad at me, Mala messed with my taste buds making my food taste rotten and the water taste like swamp water. See you later."
The young human watched as the wolf walked to the storage place for the practice weapons and armor, Putting away the equipment. A set of slim hands massaged his shoulders as a gentle female voice muttered some strange words. Then the sensation of warm water being poured on him was felt all over his body. "Better?", asked Mala from behind him.
He shivered as the vixen's breath blew on his right ear. Being near her sent his mind to thinking things that were hardly calming. Stephen answered,"Yes, thanks. I noticed when you cast that sleep spell last night, I didn't hear you say any words."
Mala chuckled and told him,"Some spells I can get away with casting by thinking them and they happen. The talent comes in handy when I must remain quiet or someone has me gagged. Here, I'll teach you a levitating spell."
"But I don't have any magic inside me.", Stephen replied, but the vixen gently grabbed his wrists holding them straight out.
"Now repeat after me.", she told him and muttered a few words. She then said,"Say those words and I'll act as a conduit, but clear your mind and concentrate on that rock over there."
Stephen cleared his mind and muttered the words Mala had taught him. He felt a slight drain on his energy, as if he had run a few laps on a track and the rock floated. "Am I doing that!?", he asked with surprise and the rock thumped to the ground.
"What are you doing Mala?", asked Sabrina walking out. She saw Stephen looking at the rock and said,"He has the talent, doesn't he?" The wolf saw her apprentice nod in answer. Sabrina touched Stephen's forehead, said some phrases, then concentrated. She then told Mala,"I'll have to give him a talisman to act as a regulator, because he's quite strong for a male and he needs to be taught. But at the moment I can't take on another apprentice and we need to get those talismans as soon as we can." The wolf looked at Mala and told her."I'll give you another book so you can begin to teach him the basics for now. After we have gotten the talismons, I can start teaching him."
Stephen just kept his mouth shut as the two females talked to each other and listened. Could it be that he was going to be able to work magic too, one day?
A few days later, on the outskirts of a village called, Ventosi Campi .
The three party members looked at the village. It looked like a village from the fantasy novels Stephen had read while growing up. After his parents divorced, his mother had gotten rid of his books while he was at school. He had the Lord of the rings trilogy, The Hobbit and all five books of The Black Cauldron. Stephen used to have almost fifty books, but his mother had thrown them all out. The young human was still having conflicting thoughts. Part of him wanted to go back to Earth but the blue gaze from Mala, was giving him different thoughts.
Sabrina told him that she could return him to his world. As she informed him of that, Stephen noticed a worried look on Mala's face. The older female wolf told of what she needed him to do. Sabrina said,"The four items I need you to find are a jeweled scepter, a locket, a chalice and the last item is a jeweled sword. You'll need Mala to help you find these items because of a talent she has. It is one I am not gifted with, nor can I cast a spell that would give it to you. I have the locations of these items on this scroll but only she and I can use it." The female wolf held up a rolled parchment.
"Uh, what will happen if I handle it?", asked Stephen.
Sabrina grinned and told him,"Nothing, nothing at all. Here, see for yourself.". She tossed it to Stephen.
The human caught it by reflex but nothing happened. No magic blast of energy, no gaurdian creature came forth, so Stephen looked at the parchment, examining it. The paper was faded yellow with age and there was no writing upon it. "There's nothing written on it.", Stephen said, puzzled by what good a blank scroll could be.
Eleanor looked at the scroll and grabbed it when Stephen offered it to her, wondering if only females can read it. A moment later, the wolf handed it to the vixen. and said,"There's nothing written on it, the human is right."
Stephen looked over to the vixen, who watched the writing reform on the parchment. Mala read the writing for a minute, then rolled it up and placed it in a pack. She smiled at Stephen and Eleanor as she explained,"The unique talent that my teacher is talking about, is I can see things being hidden by magic, as well as traps."
The human nodded remembering an original X-box game he had played, called Sudeki. He had liked the princess Ailish character for her breast size and how the character had worn almost nothing. Mala reminded him of Ailish and Eleanor reminded him of Buki, the huntress character who was like a half cat and half human. The young human looked at the huge broadsword hanging from Eleanor's back and decided to keep that opinion to himself. Stephen wondered what his friend Royce who owned both types of X-boxes was doing right then. "Maybe my mom told him my dad kidnapped me.", he thought to himself. Following the two female canines to the village, he looked at the white jeweled talisman hanging around his neck, that had been given to him by Sabrina. Mala had unlocked the magic abilities Stephen apparently had laying dormant within him, when she used her talents on him to see if he could use magic.
A few minutes later, the party entered the village. Stephen looked around, seeing different species of anthropomorphic beings walking around. He noticed that the villagers were staring at him as he walked down the street. Many different smells assaulted his senses as he followed the two females.
A second later, a familiar slim hand touched his shoulder and a gentle voice told him,"Don't leave our sight. I am not as experienced as Sabrina and not everyone is honest or to be trusted."
Stephen looked at Mala and thinking of the wolfess, he asked,"Just out of curiosity, how old is she?"
The vixen gave him a look and a slight grin as she told him,"I asked her the same question when I started as her apprentice. Her answer was, I've been around as long as the order of magic users."
Stephen chuckled as he wondered just how old THAT was. He also remembered it is impolite to ask a woman's age and figured that was likely true here as well. The party went to an Inn and entered. He blinked his eyes looking at a male tiger sitting at the desk. Mala walked up to the tiger looking the feline in the eye and didn't seem nervous in the least. The vixen talked to the clerk for a minute making feline sounds as she spoke in his native tongue.
A minute later, the tiger looked at the other two party members and told them,"Well, I only have one room left but it has two beds in it." That he spoke English was a bit of a surprise but then it would be expected an inn keeper would know other languages.
Stephen followed Mala and Eleanor upstairs to the room. The vixen used a old style key in the lock and opened the door. "Wow, it's like a room from the old west.", said the young human examining the room.
He sat on one of the beds looking for a couch to sleep on. Sighing to himself he knew that he would be sleeping with Mala because the only furniture was the two beds. Eleanor walked to the door as she told them,"I am going to look for my friend Pete. He said that he will help out. I'll see you later Stephen, Mala." The wolf walked out, shutting the door behind her.
Stephen looked at Mala, who was unpacking a few items and a familiar tingling feeling went thru him as he watched the vixen's ass sway, while she removed things from her pack. The young human looked at the rounded backside with the thick bushy tail swaying back and forth. He finally noticed something he hadn't before, the vixen's bikini bottom was a thong! Malla's ass had a very nice shape, the strings from the front meeting at the tail. They wove together over the tail and the string disappeared down the butt crack giving the young human male a nice view. Every time she bent over, Stephen saw the outline of her vagina thru the bikini bottom. Stephen gulped and said quickly,"I am going to the bathroom Mala."
"Ok, I'll see you in a few minutes Stephen,"replied Mala.
He went into the bathroom, using a match to light the lamp. Breathing heavily, the young human undid his trousers, releasing his erect organ with a sigh of relief. He reached into his pocket and took out a small container. Stephen grabbed his length and began coating his penis with cooking fat from the container he had brought in with him to use as lube. Sighing to himself, he thought of a few women he had seen in men's entertainment magazines like Playboy, Hustler and D-cup. His friend Royce had a large stash of those magazines, that he kept under a loose floorboard in his room. The images of the females went thru his mind as he jerked off, but images of Mala kept appearing in his mind as well. "What are you doing?". said a familiar female voice.
"Oh crap.", muttered Stephen looking at the vixen standing in the doorway.
Mala saw Stephen sitting on the toilet with his right hand on his penis and the container of cooking grease on the wash basin. The vixen knew what the human was doing because she had studied the habits of young teen males. They were known need to relieve their sexual urges by masturbating. Right now she just caught Stephen jerking off in the bathroom. She walked up to the young human with a sultry grin and said sexily,"How about I take care of that for you."
Stephen just stared as the vixen removed her bra and knelt down. For some reason his voice refused to work. He let the vixen move his hands aside and watched as she dipped her head between his legs. A warm wet maw engulfed his penis. The young human shivered, feeling Mala's breasts brush against his calves.
Her tongue encircled his length, and he felt the vixen's teeth rub against his penis. Sighing, he could hardly believe this was happening. He ran his hands over her head, stroking her long black hair and worked them down to her breasts. After fondling her breasts, he only lasted another few minutes before he emptied in Mala's muzzle. Mala continued to suck on his member as the tender feeling went to the head of his penis. He normally didn't touch the head of penis after he finished ejaculating because it was too sensitive. This time his length was inside an anthropomorphic fox vixen's muzzle and being suckled on.
He looked at the ceiling sucking his breath thru his teeth and feeling that sensitive rush of pleasure. Finished, Mala went to the basin to rinse her muzzle out. The vixen looked at him replacing her bra and told him,"I'll be more than happy to help relieve your urges. The next time you want to play with yourself, let me know and I'll take care of you."
Stephen looked at her and made a decision. He told her,"I'll talk to you when I need to relieve myself but I want to do something else...."
Male caressed his chin and told him,"We will know when the time is right for that. I am not going to push you."
The young human stroked her cheek and gave her kiss, then said,"Thanks and just so you know, you'll be teaching me how to do it."
The vixen chuckled leading Stephen out of the bathroom. "Don't forget the cooking fat. You won't be needing that stuff again."
Stephen nodded and watched the vixen's ass as she walked thru the door. He smiled to himself, relaxing. Now he knew why men loved getting hummers from a female. The young human male felt better about his situation and having finally made his decision. He grabbed Mala's shoulder.
The vixen turned her head to him and Stephen said,"I would like to stay with you after this, because I want to stay here." Stephen said this to her, his voice slightly shaking as he waited on her reaction to this news.
Mala smiled to him and caressed his chin as she told him,"I am glad, because I think if my teacher tried that complex spell again, it would kill her. Just to let you know, I really care for Sabrina and I count her as a surrogate mother."
Stephen put his arms around Mala's neck giving her a kiss. "We will, ah.....but...I...", he stammered.
She puts a finger to his lips and told the nervous human,"Sssh, wait, we will know when the time is right."
He nodded and gave an involuntary shiver before saying,"Ok, lets go to bed."
Mala put her hand on his shoulder and told him,"We are sleeping on the one near the door because Elenor prefers to sleep near a window." The vixen removed her clothing while Stephen went to bed.
Stephen sighed as the naked vixen climbed in bed with him. She embraced him, pressing her breasts against his back.
A few hours later, Eleanor walked in with a grin on her muzzle. The wolf/husky looked at the couple in the bed sleeping. She gave a quiet chuckle looking at the cooking fat container that had been set down on the dresser. Seeing a couple finger furrows in the fat, she thought to herself.'Hmm, looks like the human male did some masturbation.' Eleanor saw a small glob of cooking fat at the corner of Mala's muzzle and chuckled to herself,"Ok, I think maybe she has finally gotten to him. Seeing as how Pete and I have just finished our session together, I can hardly begrudge Mala her fun.' She grinned to herself remembering the feeling of being in Pete's arms.
Elenor shrugged removing her clothing and got in bed knowing that Pete would be meeting the party in the café, next morning. 'Well, I'll feel better with him joining us in this quest.", she thought to herself before falling asleep.
In the other bed Mala watched her foster sister fall asleep and licked the glob of cooking fat off her lips. She thought ahead to what was coming and thought,'Just remember Eleanor, only Stephen can handle those items. That scroll said only a male with magic abilities can handle those talismans. Pete, unfortunately, doesn't have magic abilities. It would hurt any of us to touch them. Only my Stephen can do it.' Mala didn't notice how she had switched to thinking of Stephen as hers already. She had wanted to enjoy having sex with the young human but now, she was already thinking of him as more than a play partner. Mala shut her eyes and drifted to sleep, holding onto her male.
