Sheer Turmoil Utter Peace Chapter 8
Here is chapter 8; I started getting ideas for different tangents that goes along with the main plot a few days ago but when I tried to remember them earlier today I couldn't, but thank god I remembered to write them down on paper before I forgot. So the next few chapters are mostly going to be playing on the tangents from the main plot and see what they turn into. I hope you enjoy this chapter and once again thanks for reading.
Chapter 8
(Kenshi POV)
Kenshi and Benaji were making their way through town, leaning against each other as they walked arm-in-arm, talking in hushed voices so as not to be easily overheard by passerbys but failing miserably as the couple heard some passersby giggling and saw a few passersby giving polite coughs before turning away from the couple but not before they spotted the very visible blush they tried to hide from the couple.
"Hmm, I wonder what's gotten into them. I didn't notice anything odd, did you dear?" Benaji said innocently as she snuggled her head into Kenshi's warm chest looking deep into his eyes.
"Nope, but maybe what's gotten into them is the pictures you keep putting in mine." Kenshi said blushing still remembering what Benaji told him what she would do to him later when she got him alone when she was in heat. Another passerby, a female cheetah, saw Kenshi and the huge blush on his face and the very cute zoroark giving her a knowing wink. The cheetah saw the quick hint Benaji gave her and started giggling, making the already stop sign red Kenshi blush even more.
"Don't ride him too hard" the cheetah said as the couple passed, a devilish smile crept up her face as she turned to face the couple as they continued on their way, "On second thought, maybe you should his face says everything, naughty boy..." the cheetah called out to the couple watching as Kenshi as reacted to the "naughty boy" bit by turning around and opening his mouth about to say something but looking at the attractive cheetah only made him blush again and close his mouth as he turned to face forward again making her giggle even more "and congrats by the way, you two really make a cute couple! I can't wait to see what the kids look like, probably cute like their parents!" she called out again to the couple, both Kenshi and Benaji looked at her and then back at each other before a very incriminating blush appeared on both of their faces making the cheetah burst out laughing as the couple continued their way down the street their blushes as obvious as a lighthouse beacon.
The couple continued their talk as they headed through town passing houses and small businesses on their way the moonlight illuminating everything as they made their way through seeing small brushes and park benches scattered along the path as clear as day in the moonlight.
"Do you know her?" Kenshi asked Benaji, their faces now back to normal as they left the town and made their way along the path that led to Kenshi's house in the countryside.
"Nope, never seen her before, why do you ask?" she asked, the sound of summer crickets and the occasional owl breaking the peaceful silence of the night.
"Well the whole winking thing and yes I did notice that, seemed a bit orchestrated to me." He said looking back into Benaji's eyes which were now a stunning emerald green.
"That, my oblivious mate, was a mutual understanding between two similar parties. I wouldn't expect you to understand it, guys never do." She replied running quick paw through her hair before giving a quick flick of her head and settling it back in place behind her. Kenshi rolled his eyes and sighed making Benaji giggle
"I knew it, it's not written down on paper but it's true, you females all stick together and plot against us behind our backs don't you."
"What? I have no idea what about you're talking about," Benaji said in a fake shocked voice, she then looked at Kenshi with an accusing look on her face before she continued "we females don't stick together, it's you males who stick together and plot against us. Not to torture us, or maybe you do plan on torturing us, hmm? You guys are weird like that, but I know a lot of you males plot to get into our pants isn't that right, wingman?" She said. It wasn't so much a question as it was an accusation especially with the "wingman" thing. Kenshi, remembering how many times he spotted hot girls at school and played wingman for one of his friends while they scored a date with said hottie was at loss for words, he lost track after forty.
"I-I I have no idea what you're t-talking about, w-what's a wingman?" He said as he stumbled to find some miraculous excuse. Thinking that he found it he opened his mouth to speak but was cut off.
"Unlike us females, if we did have a code that we used against you, which we don't, we keep it from you, but thirty years that's what, fifteen college semesters? I'm surprised that something originally scribbled on a beer napkin by some guys trying to score managed to last so long, not only that, but managed to be written in a book? I'm really not surprised that you guys haven't picked up on it yet, once you guys pick up a strategy that works you write it down and spread the word and sooner or later it ends up being in the Men's Code Book am I right? Hang on I'm not done yet" she said, as she raised a paw to hush Kenshi before he interrupted her "What I was saying is that while you males change and adapt your strategies to pick up females you always forget one thing."
"Well, what is it?" Kenshi said as he hung on every word she was saying. If I can figure out how the hell these females figure out our strategies beforehand we may just be able to stand a chance against their ploys. Kenshi thought to himself as he cleared all his thoughts and focused on Benaji's words jotting them down in his memory for later.
"You always forget to hide it and end up leaving the damn pickup book in the open where your girlfriend can find the damn thing and revise it." Benaji said as she laughed at the shocked look on Kenshi's face, the expression quickly leaving his face as another took its place.
"Sabotage, that's your trick? You already play mind games with us and play us like fiddles, but sabotage come on?!" He said sarcastically as he hugged Benaji and tickled her and laughed when she yelped and tried to jump away from his touch. As they made their way down the winding country road Kenshi's house came into view at the end of the road. Kenshi's house was situated within the branches of a massive tree, the branches and the tree itself, with the help of some Persan magic, was stretches and melded and shaped into the shape of sections of the house and beneath it a walkway ran around the entire circumference of the tree and let out into a stairway that led to the ground. At the base of the tree Kenshi and Benaji made their way up the stairway but a feeling of unease was making Kenshi a bit uneasy when they reached the walkway and stood in front of the door. Something's not right, no lights, no sounds coming from inside... or outside either. Kenshi turned his ears in different directions but heard nothing, not the crickets, owls, or any other nighttime creature. He looked around trying to see if something was missing or out of place but couldn't see anything. Maybe everyone's asleep already; it must be later than I figured. Noticing the thoughtful look on her mate's face, Benaji asked Kenshi what was wrong, but Kenshi just shook his head and said it was nothing. Still wary about not seeing or hearing anything, Kenshi quietly turned the doorknob and slowly opened the door, his eyes glowing in the low light as his eyes adapted to the change. He slowly slid his hand forward and when nothing happened he slowly moved the rest of his body through the doorway when he heard the sound of a foot paw go over a rough spot and froze. He crouched down and quickly looked for the source of the noise, hearing it again Kenshi looked up and saw the face of Toshi looking down at him and was about to open his mouth to ask what he was doing when he noticed the sword poised over his head drop as Toshi slashed at his head. He yelled and rolled forward as the blade came down on the tip of his tail slicing off a bit of fur but nothing else. Rolling to a stop on all four paws Kenshi stood up and looked back at Toshi about to yell at him for trying to kill him when he heard a yell and turned back to see a foot paw coming towards his face, he grunted as he leaned back, the roundhouse kick roaring in his ears as it distorted the air barely a half inch in front of his muzzle. Back flipping a safe distance away from his attackers he opened his mouth to speak for the third time but was cut off when a red translucent box stretched and collided with the side of his head knocking him to the ground with a hard thud. Kenshi groaned as he clenched his eyes shut and held his throbbing head but the pain in his head was soon forgotten when he opened his head and saw Hiranose's paw inches from his throat his claws tickling the spot above Kenshi's jugular.
"Who are you, what is your purpose here, did Tom send you to kill us too? Hiranose growled his claws never leaving Kenshi's throat as he stared in his eyes the anger in them apparent to Kenshi. Not even noticing that she even there Benaji made her way through the dark room and switched on the light wincing as the stinging light blinded everyone in the room.
"What the hell do you think you're doing, can't you recognize your brother when you're looking dead at him, well alive at him?" Benaji said with her arms crossed over her chest staring daggers at Kenshi's siblings and Toshi, she was pissed at not even being noticed and even more pissed that they attacked Kenshi out the blue like that. She walked over to where Kenshi was lying and helped him up asking him if he was hurt.
"No worse than usual I'm just glad that Laurran's roundhouse missed me or I'd be in a little more trouble. But at least she aimed for my face this time, usually when she's pissed at me her aim tends to wander south." Kenshi said as he rubbed the spot on his head where Shinaji's kekkai hit him.
"Benaji, what are you talking about that's not Kenshi." Toshi growled as he walked towards Kenshi, his sword raised to run him through if he moved.
"Wait! Wait, I can prove to you that I'm Kenshi and not an imposter." Kenshi said raising his arms in surrender as the wolf stalked towards him with the sword. Toshi stopped and considered his words for a minute before sheathing his sword and telling Laurran, Hiranose, and Shinaji to stand down.
"Well imposter what're you waiting for, prove to me that you really are Kenshi or prepare to die." Toshi said as he backed away from Kenshi and Benaji. He looked around to his brother and two sisters and saw that they had backed up too but looked ready to pounce on him if he tried to run of failed to prove his identity.
"Well for starters just about every morning when Laurran decides to wake me up she always chops me in the crotch. Not only that but also every morning Shinaji and Hiranose try to break up the argument between us but it always seems to end up with Shinaji or Hiranose using kekkai to slam us into the wall leaving us to pop out the wall creating a kind of 3-D pattern on the wall with the rest of the indents on the wall." Kenshi said as he looked around the room at his siblings and Toshi awaiting a response.
"I believe him." Laurran, Hiranose, and Shinaji said at the same time. Toshi and Kenshi both looked at the three with surprised looks on their faces.
"You really believe him?" Toshi asked the three siblings and all three nodded their heads in response.
"Maybe if he didn't snore so much and keep the rest of us up I wouldn't have to wake him up everyday then." Laurran said in a snide tone as she stuck out her tongue at Kenshi, who in response recovered from her insult and flipped her off. The argument quickly built and once again Laurran and Kenshi were in each other's face hurling insults and arguing with each other. With their arms crossed over the chest both Hiranose and Shinaji looked at Toshi with that "told you so" look written of their faces.
"Guess you were right you've proven you're Kenshi-." The rest of Toshi's sentence was lost to anyone's ears as the din of the argument got louder, Toshi sighed and looked at the two twins and shrugged his shoulders. The two twins looked at each other and a smile crept on their faces as they both raised their paws and yelled "Separ!" at the same time. Two translucent squares; a red and blue square appeared in between Kenshi and Laurran and quickly stretched slamming the arguing siblings into opposite walls, the argument forgotten as both Kenshi and Laurran groaned at being kekkai slammed again.
"You know both of you are really getting good at that you know." Toshi said smiling at the beaming twins who looked back and smiled and said "We know" before lowering their paws and letting the kekkai disappear and letting their siblings drop from the wall on the floor. Once the two picked themselves up and dusted off the brief joy in the room disappeared as Toshi brought Kenshi and Benaji up to speed on what happened to Sherro and Tom.
Benaji was sitting down in a chair with her head buried in her hands as she wept for the king. Sherro had been like a father to her over the years and to lose him like that was too much for the young zoroark to bear. Small drops of blood from Kenshi's fist were scattered along the floor as he punched the wall tears falling down his face to mingle with the blood on the floor.
"I know how you feel but we cannot stay here, we need to go, if Tom took out Sherro for the reason that I think he did, he'll be coming for you all too. He'll send those dark wraith warriors after us and the first place that they'll look for us is here. We can figure out what happened to you later but right now we need to focus on collecting the essentials and leaving here for some place else" Toshi said once Benaji and Kenshi calmed down, at the mention of dark wraiths Benaji looked at Toshi and asked him if those things had a dense black, coiling aura. Toshi nodded his head and asked how she knew. She explained to Toshi and the others how she was still at the school she sensed Kenshi's aura and an unknown black aura and how when she tried to figure out who it was it attacked her and nearly killed her. Toshi's eyes grew wide at the mention of being attacked by an aura but quickly skipped it and told Benaji that she wasn't safe here anymore either and that she'd have to come with them.
"As if you really had a choice of leaving me behind in the first place, right you can't get rid of me that easily." Benaji said as she crossed her arms and looked over at Toshi
"Eh, it was worth a try, anyway we need to get going. Take a few changes of clothes, personals, and other essentials only; the sooner we leave here the colder our trail will be when those wraiths get here, you're nowhere near strong enough to fight them or Tom so hurry it up." Toshi said with a shrug of his shoulders before he walked off and started packing along with everyone else. Everyone met back in the living room with a pack on their backs before making their way out the door and down the tree. They followed Toshi's example and avoided the main roads opting to silently leap from the trees as they made their escape from what is now enemy territory. Their house in the tree quickly faded from view as they made their way for uncharted territory.
They made their way through the forest for about three hours before they jumped to the ground to set up camp for the night. Everyone was exhausted and they barely managed to set up their tents and start a small fire before they collapsed and fell asleep. As the sun made its way over the horizon and higher into the sky, the shadows of night receded to make room for the sunlight as if filtered down through the trees and into the group's camp, the fire long dead but still smoldering. The light from the sun fell on Kenshi's tent and into his eyes causing him to stir from his sleep and stretch. Feeling a weight across his chest he pulled the covers off to reveal Benaji's arm lying across his chest as she quietly slept snuggled next to him. Smiling, he slowly sat up and brushed a stray braid from Benaji's face causing her to stir and slowly opened her eye and looking up focused on Kenshi.
"Morning sleepy head, sleep well?" Kenshi asked as he lied back down and kissed Benaji on the tip of her nose making her giggle before she quickly rolled to lie on top of Kenshi looking deep into his eyes.
"I slept like a baby, maybe that's you're doing hmm, lying next to a sweet soul like yourself would put anyone at ease." Benaji said as she returned the kiss her tongue playing his as her one of her paws ran over his chest while the other slowly made its way down his front loving how his muscles shuddered at her touch, she continued going down his front until she came to the bulge in his pants.
"Were you having a pleasant dream, hmm?" Benaji asked seductively as she slid her paw down his pants and wrapped it around his sheath and gave it a quick squeeze and was rewarded by a breathy moan from Kenshi as she continued. She began rubbing her paw slowly up and down his sheath as she coaxed his member out and felt it hardening under her touch, hearing Kenshi moan as she squeezed the base of his sheath to coax his member further out.
"Well you're dream is about to be that much more pleasant." She said as she broke her kiss again and slowly made her way down Kenshi's front towards her prize. She pulled Kenshi's pants completely off and looked down at his throbbing member with a hungry look in her eyes. She lowered her head to his member and locked eyes with Kenshi, she smiled to herself when she saw Kenshi close his eyes and let out a moan as her tongue went across his member from base to tip several times before she went back to his tip. She swirled her tongue around his tip sucked gently on it as she flicked her tongue across the tip again before letting it go slide her tongue up and around the rest of his member licking up his pre as it appeared at his tip. Kenshi screwed up his face in pleasure as he softly moaned as Benaji's tongue swirled around his tip. Dreaming about her doing it and pleasuring himself to her was nothing compared to the real thing. Kenshi's thoughts were ground to an abrupt halt as he gasped and instinctively bucked his hips when he felt the warm wetness of Benaji's mouth completely engulf his member and started to bob her head up and down. His thoughts were a jumbled mess of lust, pleasure, and instinct as Benaji's head went up and down his member, her tongue swirling it around as she sucked at different pressures making Kenshi moan louder as he placed his paw on the back of her head forcing her lower. Kenshi started to smell something and it was getting stronger and managed to open his eyes and see Benaji's pants off and her paw going in and out of her dripping slit moaning around his member as she sped up. Kenshi's thoughts were locked on lust as he started thrusting into Benaji's mouth moaning as she kept up her tongue work. Kenshi's thrust started to become erratic and faster as Benaji sucked hard on his member she could hear him panting harder and knew that he was close. She took Kenshi's member down to the base and started deep-throating him as she sucked even harder. She could feel his member starting to twitch and throb in her mouth and kept up the same speed wanting him to finish in her mouth. She began to finger herself faster her moaning around Kenshi's member as she got closer to her orgasm too. Her paw focusing on a spot inside her as her juices continued to spill out over her thighs and the covers below. She kept at that one spot as her pleasure grew until she arched her back and her mouth closed as she moaned over Kenshi's member creating a tight seal around her tongue as it went over his pulsing member while her juices gushed past her paw and soaked the covers under them. She was caught off guard however when she felt something swelling in her mouth and pulled back just as Kenshi gave one last long moan before his member erupted on the roof of Benaji's mouth. She quickly swallowed what she could but was disappointed when a bit of the white nectar slipped out the side of her mouth and on the cover. Kenshi lied back on the ground panting hard his member still in the air from the still softening knot keeping it out.
"I didn't know you had a knot." Benaji said as she crawled towards Kenshi's chest and collapsed on top of him panting.
"I didn't know either, must've been from the change." Kenshi said through pants as he wrapped his arms around his mate in a warm embrace as they relaxed in the afterglow. They were startled when they heard the others giggling and Toshi walk by the tent.
"If you two are done in there we need to get going, we're not going to get anywhere with you all over each other." Toshi said as he tried not to laugh with the others. After the couple got cleaned up away from the camp they came back and started to break the camp down to leave, once everything was packed and ready to go Kenshi looked around at the screwed up faces of Toshi and the others as they tried not to laugh.
"I guess you all know that Benaji and I are mates now." Kenshi said as he wrapped an arm around Benaji pulling her close.
"Not just us, I think the whole forest knows too." Hiranose barely managed to get out without bursting.
"What is so funny anyway, I love her and she loves me, is there going to be a problem or not." Kenshi said as he protectively wrapped another arm around her looking back at the others. The others couldn't take it anymore and burst out laughing, tears rolling down their faces. Kenshi staring at them with a look of hurt and anger as well as confusion as the others finally calmed down enough to talk.
"We were wondering how long it would take your dumb ass to figure it out, but not once did we think that it would take years for you to figure it out." Hiranose said as Shinaji stood next to him nodding in agreement.
"Wait, so you knew that I was gonna fall for Benaji then?"
"Yes." Toshi, Laurran, Hiranose, and Shinaji said at the same time surprised at how oblivious Kenshi can be when it came to affairs of the heart.
"You knew? Then how long did you know, I never said anything to anyone and I don't think that Benaji did either." Kenshi asked still confused, looking at Benaji who just shrugged and started walking with the others, leaving Kenshi behind as he tried to work out how Toshi and his siblings managed to figure everything out so long ago. Not hearing any response Kenshi turned around and saw the rest of the group farther away as the leapt from the trees.
"Hey where the hell do you think you're going, wait up?!" Kenshi called as he picked up his pack and ran to catch up with the others.
I've still got some other ideas but I still have to fine tune them before I decide anything. Please tell me what you think about this chater, I'm always open to suggestions.
