He had money. But what was this money? They use gold coins? He didn't understand. He didn't remember any country in the world that used solid, blank gold coins as currency. Then again, neither Zuth nor he was good at geography. They often got C's or low B's.  \n  \n\"So where could I be?... I mean, Zuth was sucked into a pool of tar or something. Then we woke up in that forest. Damn, I am lost...\"  \n  \nSuddenly, he was knocked over by a wolf. Now on his back, the wolf was still on top of him. A calico cat ran up. He looked very pissed. He grabbed the wolf off of Dante by his collar. The wolf was still a bit dazed.  \n  \n\"Thought you could run off without paying?'  \n  \nThe wolf growled and went to pull away and run, he was grabbed again. This time by the scruff of his neck. A very large and muscular bull had grabbed him. He probably was a bodyguard.  \n  \n\"You ate thirty gold worth of food, now pay up!\"  \n  \n\"But..I don't have any money..\" The wolf growls a bit from being held by the scruff.  \n  \nDante gets up, \"I have the money, here,\" He opens his bag and counts out thirty coins. He hands the coins to the cat. He takes it and grunts.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; \"Doesn't even have thirty gold and goes to eat, what a hopeless idiot..\"  \n  \nHe snaps his fingers, \"Let him go,\"  \n  \nThe bull lets go and grunts, they both walk away.  \n  \nThe wolf stands back up, rubbing the back of his neck, \"Ugh...thank you..I don't know what I was thinking...eating without any money...\"  \n  \nDante smiles, \"No problem. So um, I'm Dante.\"  \n  \nThe wolf smiles back, \"I'm Taru. I'll pay you back if I can...\"  \n  \nDante laughs, \"Don't worry, its fine,\"  \n  \n\"So um... do you know where you can get some money around here? You have a preety decent bag there.\"  \n  \n\"Oh this? I joined the city guard. I'm going to some training camp tomorrow.\"  \n  \n\"Oh..that sounds good, I think I will too. That way I can pay you back and maybe find who I'm looking for,\"  \n  \nDante nods, \"Well, I don't know anyone around here, so good luck. The building is over there. I hope they accept you.\" He points to the recruitment building.  \n  \nDante walks off.  \n  \nTaru enters the other part of town where the building should be. The area around it is eerily quiet. The uncomfortable breeze blows. This is not a place that seems nice to be in.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; \"Where is that building?\"  \n  \nHe's lost. The building wasn't very large and he got lost in the area's tall surrounding buildings. This area had an odd aura, anyone could tell that even if they weren't one with the earth.  \n  \nTaru shuddered. He wasn't enjoying this one bit. He suddenly felt a presence behind him. He turned and was just missed by a dart. He looked on to a feline of some kind fully clothed in black. He was hard to see without seeing his aura to know the area he was in.  \n  \n\"Who are you? And what did you just try to shoot me with?\" He was suddenly hit in the back of the neck with something. His vision blurred and he staggered. His eyelids were heavy. He fell to his knees. He felt sick. He tried to look at the cat again but he passed out and collapsed onto the ground before he could look up.  \n  \nChiba yawned as he woke up. He got out of the bed. His penis was unsheathed from just waking up. He looked to the table. He put the short loin cloth on and then put on the robe. It wasn't very comfortable. He wasn't sore or anything anymore. He felt a lot better. He left the room. He walked into a spacious kitchen. Safia was at the table eating pancakes. There was a horse eating the same.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; \"I didn't know anyone else lived here..\" He thought.  \n  \n\"Oh, good morning Chiba. I know you must be surprised to see anyone else here.\"  \n  \n\"Y..yea. Since you said you did everything yourself.\"  \n  \n\"Well yes, the windmills I do myself. I'm sorry, that must have been worded awkwardly. I have many who live here or close by who help me with all my things. This is Chuck(If you can't pronounce chuck...I'm sorry but I can't help you)  \n  \nChuck is a horse. He is twenty one. He has completely brown fur. But his tail is black. He is eleven feet tall. He weighs five hundred pounds. Yes, quite the heavy one. But just because of his muscle. He is very muscular. He isn't ridiculously, but he's in better shape then most people in good shape. He's gay. His dick is the standard horse member. He's twenty inches. His cock is pink with a black spot on the right side five inches from his groin. The fur on his balls is black in contrast to the rest of his body. He has hooves for feet but has hands. In all, he's quite large. Safia has helped him tap his element of nature. His element doesn't seem to match his exterior but his personality is right on. He is very gentle and outgoing. He is almost always calm. He is nice to everyone, helpful, generally quite, although he's huge he's very gentle, and he treats every living thing with respect. He surprises everyone with these qualities. He is wearing blue jean overalls right now.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; \"Hello...Chiba is it?\"  \n  \n\"Y..yea, hello Chuck.\" Chiba sits down at the table. His stomach growls. Safia gets up to make him some pancakes too.  \n  \nChuck speaks again, \"There are quite a few people who work here, and a few live here,\"  \n  \nChiba nodded a little, he felt very awkward around the large horse. Very small. He was less than half his height.  \n  \n\"If you want to live here though, you'll have to do chores to work your own weight.\"  \n  \nChiba blinked. He hadn't heard about this.  \n  \nSafia set a plate of pancakes down. \"Well, of course you'll do chores, you didn't think you'd free load did you?\" He laughed.  \n  \n\"Well, I have no where to go so I guess I have no choice.\"  \n  \nSafia smiles. \"Ok, but it'll be fine, you look like you could use some hard labor,\"  \n  \nChiba blushes. He was very weak. He didn't really think about working out. It made him more desirable as a submissive male. Safia smiled more.  \n  \n\"Enjoy your breakfast and fill up. I'll give you some work clothes. Then tonight you can take a nice bath.\" He goes off.  \n  \nRight about now a doberman walks down the stairs. All he is wearing is very loose loin cloth. Chuck smiled. \"Seems Don is finally up,\"  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Don is a nineteen year old doberman. He is normal doberman; black with brown where it should be. He's six foot four and weighs two hundred and fourteen pounds. He has a six pack but otherwise is smooth without toning. He is gay. He has a six inch canine cock. He's very lazy and slacks off a lot. He'll often take the route that takes the minimal effort. He is a wise ass too. Most people are annoyed by him. Even though he is lazy and seems to not work towards anything, he is perfectly in tune with his element of wind. He often wears minimal clothes for comfort.  \n  \nDon grunts, \"Rrmph..I was up late last night ok?..\"  \n  \nChuck nods, \"But you better eat a quick breakfast, we need to get working soon. Eight a.m. everyday.\"  \n  \nDon starts to rummage in a cupboard, \"Eight a.m. When did that become late in the day?\"  \n  \nChiba starts to eat his pancakes a little. The syrup was very sweet. It tasted almost like it was just collected this morning.  \n  \nDon got a bowl of wheat rice and mixed it with milk. He sat down almost right night to Chiba.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; \"So you're Chiba?\"  \n  \nChiba blushes lightly. He was feeling oddly scared of everyone. He usually is open talker to everyone but felt really shy for some reason. He was very out of character.  \n  \n\"Y..yea. I am. You're Don?\"  \n  \nHe smiles, \"Yea, so I bet you're working here now,\" He took a bite of his food.  \n  \n\"Yea. I am.\"  \n  \nDon swallows his food and grins. \"So, I hope you can be less shy. It's no fun with anyone meek.\"  \n  \nChiba blushed and ate his pancakes. What did he mean by this?  \n  \nSuddenly a feline with purple fur came down the stairs. Chiba had never seen a purple cat.  \n  \nChuck smiled again, \"And here comes the last of the furs that live here. You should meet her too Chiba. Her name is Kate.\"  \n  \nKate (Kayt) is a purple feline. She's five foot. She weighs one hundred pounds. She's very sleek. She rarely has sex because living in a house of a celibate old mountain lion and two gay furs. Her element is the mind. She can read minds and even dig into subconscious thought; knowing memories and thoughts you've ever had. She is very good at this. You can't hide anything from her, and she knows it.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; She smiles, \"Hello Chiba, I'm Kate.\" She holds out her hand to shake hands.  \n  \n\"Hello Kate.... how did you know my name?\"  \n  \n\"I can read minds completely. If I want to I can know everything about you. Maybe even more than you know about you.\"  \n  \nChiba blinked. He never heard of someone who could read minds. \"How can you read minds?\"  \n  \n\"My element is the mind. Yea, I know. It sounds awkward since the mind isn't an element. But it's just a matter of speech.\"  \n  \n\"Element?\"  \n  \nChuck speaks, \"You don't know about elements?\"  \n  \nChiba blinks. \"No...what is an element? You mean, like hydrogen?\"  \n  \nChuck smiles, \"Your element is what binds you to mother earth. Some have elements that cause them to be bound away. Some bound very close. Like me. My element is nature. I can control plants.\"  \n  \nChiba blinks, a bit curious about this now.  \n  \nDon nod, \"I am wind. I can control the winds at my will.\"  \n  \nSafia comes down with a pair of work overalls Chiba's size. \"And I am healing, I can heal any wound as far as I know, but I am also a sage. I can tell what anyone's element is and I am very good at helping them bring out their abilities. Would you like to tap your ability?\"  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Chiba thought about this. He was really curious. \"Sure.\"  \n  \nSafia smiles. \"Ok. So your element is thunder. The first step is awareness.\"  \n  \nChiba blinked, \"Thunder?\"  \n  \n\"Yes, and a good, hard work today will help. You're too soft. You look like you never do any work.\"  \n  \n\"Well, I don't.\"  \n  \nDon blinked, \"How do you not do any work? Do you freeload off of everyone of something?\"  \n  \n\"Kinda. I don't have a job right now, but I was going to an interview today.\"  \n  \nChuck tilts his head a bit. \"An interview?\"  \n  \n\"You know...something you go to to get a job?\"  \n  \nSafia frowns, \"I don't know what you mean, but you have a job now. You should change then you, Chuck, Don, and Kate should get to work.\"  \n  \nChiba nods and grabs the overalls. He takes off the robe and slips into the overalls. Chuck and Don leave. Kate stops by Chiba and smiles.  \n  \n\"Too bad you're gay...so are the other two. I thought I might have had someone to play with finally. But I guess you're theirs...\" She giggles and walks off. Chiba is very confused. He huffs and follows the others.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Taru groans and twitches a little. He feels a warm, comforting hand stroking his back. He wakes up only to meet to a deep kiss with a tiger. He blinks and opens his eyes and focuses. He sees Kalif. He hugs him tightly. Kalif grunts from being hugged so hard, he hugs back.  \n  \n\"OH MY GODS! KALIF! I THOUGHT I MIGHT NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN!!!\"  \n  \nKalif cries of joy, \"Me either...when they kidnapped me, I thought I'd never see you again. When I heard they captured a wolf with dark brown fur.... I just hoped...and it was you!\"  \n  \nThey continue to hug. They suddenly hear a voice.  \n  \n\"Hrmph...seems my grunt knows this new guy.\"  \n  \nIt was Bruce. He seemed to be in a good mood today from his partner and his two catches in a row. Kalif shuddered a little. Who knows what Bruce would do to them. He remembered yesterday. He suddenly felt really dirty. He frowned. Taru blinked.  \n  \n\"Who are you?\"  \n  \n\"I am Bruce. My partner and I kidnapped this guy and you. You have a choice now. You can either be my partner's bitch or you can be a grunt. The differences are subtle. As a grunt you will still be used for sex if any of your superiors need you, but you will also fight when needed. You will be killed if you try to escape as a grunt, but just punished if you try to escape as a sex slave. But if you're a grunt you can go up in the ranks. Who knows? Maybe someday you'll become a general or even better. IF you are a sex slave you'll be that forever though...\"  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Kalif whispers, \"Become a grunt like me...we don't need to run away...we can stay here...together. Then if either of us rank high enough some day; we can both leave then.\"  \n  \nTaru nods, \"As long as I'm here with you...I'll be happy..\" He speaks louder now, \"I will be a grunt.\"  \n  \nBruce grins, \"Now, for initiation...\"  \n  \nKalif gasps, \"Please don't do this to him...sir...he won't leave if I'm here...\"  \n  \nBruce grins, \"I wasn't planning on doing it to him...\"  \n  \nKalif's face goes pale. Taru is confused.  \n  \n\"Kalif, what does he mean?\"  \n  \nBruce points to his groin. \"Grunt, come please your superior.\"  \n  \nTaru gasps softly, \"You mean?\"  \n  \nKalif cries, \"Y..yea.\"  \n  \nTaru frowns, \"You don't need to do this to protect me Kalif,\"  \n  \nBruce grunts, \"Hrm, no no no, he's not doing it to protect you...he's doing it to please me, he will do it and there's no buts about it.\"  \n  \nKalif cries more. This makes Bruce grin a lot. \"New grunt, your initiation is to watch him suck me off.\"  \n  \nTaru hugs Kalif and rubs his chest. He whispers softly in his ear. \"It's ok Kalif...I won't be mad at you...go ahead. As painful as it will be to see this...I won't be mad at you...\"  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Kalif crawls on his knees to Bruce. \"Lick my balls grunt.\"  \n  \nKalif does this. Bruce's cock slowly makes its way to a full erection. \"Now, get to work.\"  \n  \nKalif sniffles and starts to take the lion in his muzzle. He sucks on him softly. Crying a lot. Bruce looks to Taru. He grins. Taru gives him a disgusted look. \"That's right, hate me. Dig deep in your soul to really hate my guts.\"  \n  \nKalif shudders and cries more. He continues to suck on the lion's cock. It felt even worse now that Taru was watching. He heard Taru growl softly but spitefully. This made Bruce reel with pleasure. His hard dick already started to throb in Kalif's muzzle. He lashed his tail.  \n  \n\"That's it. Keep going grunt. I'm going to cum into you again.\"  \n  \nTaru huffed. \"Again?\" He thought. He growled deeply. He obviously was very pissed off by Bruce now. It was hard for him to keep his cool and leave him there. He was a little protective of Kalif and this was REALLY not ok with him. Not only was he fooling around with his mate. But also against his will.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Yet, his wolven penis was fully unsheathed. He wasn't enjoying this, but the smell of males and watching sexual activity made him aroused. He wanted his cock to go back down.  \n  \nBruce growled. \"Ahhh yes. New grunt, do you hate me now? Now that I take someone who's so special to you? Is he your mate? I bet he is.\"  \n  \nKalif cried more. He really just wanted him to cum so this could be over with. But he seemed to be holding back. Making this go on as long as he could.  \n  \n\"Ah yes. You'll swallow it this time too. Ah that thing you do with your tongue is wonderful. It's almost like you're doing it to get me to go over the edge and end this. Or maybe not. Maybe you like this. You pretend not to in front of your mate. You like to suck my cock. Don't you think so, new grunt?\"  \n  \nTaru shot him an ice cold glare. Bruce grinned a lot.  \n  \n\"You'll get the same sparing clothes as your mate here. You get a loincloth and nothing more. This is all grunts get. Ahhh...\"  \n  \nBruce moaned as he was sucked more. He started to pump large loads of seed down Kalif's throat. It tasted bitter just like last time. Except this time it left a much larger pain in Kalif's throat. With his mate watching, it made it even worse.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Bruce held the back of his head and growled. He continued to pump heavy loads of cum into his stomach. The bursts soon slowed and stopped. He panted a bit and let go of Kalif. He went back to Taru crying. This pleased Bruce more than the sucking. He really enjoyed being hated and other's pain.  \n  \nTaru rubbed Kalif's back softly; whispering in his ear. \"Shhh...It's ok Kalif. It's over now. Everything will be fine.\"  \n  \nBruce growls. He sets a key on the ground. \"Don't count on it being over. Who knows how often you'll be used around here. But you're both lucky. We only have one bunker left. Bunker number five. You two will share it with five other grunts and a soldier. You should sleep tonight. Tomorrow hell begins.\"  \n  \nHe leaves. Taru and Kalif are left in the dark room hugging tightly. They decide to stay here a bit before going to their cabin, together again at last.  \n  \nDante thuds down at a soft and large bed. He bought dinner for ten gold. He finally learned the currency system. Ten bronze was equal to one silver. Ten silver was worth one gold. One gold was about $1 American. So his bag was worth about $100. Silver was a dime. And a bronze was about a penny. That was convenient.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; He scratched his chest. \"You've been quiet Zuth,\"  \n  \n\"Yea. Been thinking.\"  \n  \n\"About what?\"  \n  \n\"Well. About Chiba. You know, he was my first. I didn't plan to start a relationship with him but at least be his friend.\"  \n  \n\"Yea. He was a nice guy. I bet he's fine though. I mean, we were.\"  \n  \n\"Well he was a bit weaker than even me. I don't know if I would have even survived if G'ral hadn't taken over long enough to let me rest.\"  \n  \n\"Speaking of G'ral, he hasn't said a word.\"  \n  \nZuth pokes G'ral in the physical subconscious of their mind. He grunts.  \n  \n\"You're STILL whining about that G'ral?\"  \n  \nDante smiles, \"I don't think he's whining about not getting to rape that bear.\"  \n  \nZuth blinks. \"What then?\"  \n  \n\"He's mad because you over powered him.\"  \n  \nZuth smiles, \"Is that it G'ral?\"  \n  \nG'ral grunts. He's really pissed.  \n  \n  \n  \nIt's midnight now. Dante yawns. He's bored.  \n  \n\"So Zuth, you think you'd have sex with Chiba more?\"  \n  \nZuth blushes, \"Why do you want to know?\"  \n  \n\"Just because,\"  \n  \n\"Well...it's really none of your business...\"  \n  \nG'ral starts glowing a shady black. Neither of them notices.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; \"Well why won't you tell me?\"  \n  \n\"That's personal.\"  \n  \nDante grunts. \"Well, it's nothing that bad, I mean I kinda was there,\"  \n  \nZuth blushes a lot, \"What the hell Dante? I don't spy on you when you have sex with everything that moves!\"  \n  \nDante sits up, \"Hey, I don't have sex with everyone!\"  \n  \n\"Could have fooled me,\"  \n  \n\"You had sex with someone who stole your clothes and then said you were cute, that's it!\"  \n  \n\"Shut up Dante, you've had a million one night stands!\"  \n  \n\"Hey!\"  \n  \nDante is interrupted, \"Plus you aren't even really my brother! You're just some...some FREAK!\"  \n  \nSuddenly the both are perfectly quiet. Dante sniffles once. He sheds a tear.  \n  \n\"I...I'm...\"  \n  \nA ball of glowing light suddenly appears in the subconscious realm. G'ral gasps and turns around. He lunges for it. He swings violently at it with his sharp claws. It cracks horribly. It almost shatters but just barely doesn't. It looks very fragile.  \n  \nG'ral passes out. He literally put every last ounce of energy into his swing. Zuth walks up to it and stares at its oddity. It's shaped so oddly. It's not a perfect orb, but more of an oblong. It seems so imperfect. He feels horribly compelled to touch it. He does so without even thinking. It shatters into millions of pieces; some fly into G'ral's body. Others vanish. The rest fly into Zuth. Dante stands up. He sees a few glowing yellow shards. They fly at him he dodges but they turn perfectly and fly into his back.  \n  \n\n\u0026nbsp; Dante growls loudly as two balls of light fly out of him. One forms to Zuth and the other to a passed out G'ral. But then G'ral starts to pixilate. His pixels go black then a portal opens up in the ceiling. The pixels push up it. The portal then closes. Dante pants a little. He's confused. He sees Zuth on the bed.  \n  \n\"Z...Zuth?\"  \n  \n\"Dante?\"  \n  \nHe starts to cry again. This time shedding many tears. He peals out of the room and out of the inn. Into the near by forest. Zuth falls back on the bed. He sighs.  \n  \n\"I really fucked up.\"  \n  \nI am the master of foreshadowing. Hehheh. I hope people like this one. Nobody commented on the last one. That was rude. Anyways, I'm sorry there wasn't much sex in this one. I'm sorry about not putting people in! I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Don't hit me! \\*Cower\\*  \n  \nAnyways, I hope all my watchers don't hate me and stoped reading. PLEASE comment. It can be short and pointless, just let me know you're reading!  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Darkside Chronicles","previous":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/23972-the-town-of-tanza-the-sage-and-the-camp.json","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/25450-traveling.json"}}
