DISCLAIMER: I hope you all enjoyed the first arc of the story, as this is now the first chapter of the 2nd arc. This chapter itself features several "Unexpected Moments", in which some end up turning out to be really hot in the end ;) There's also a lot of character development here as well. Ages 18 and under please leave, and I also want to thank Chowder, Firedracon, Aquingator, and EricandKimahri for letting me use their character in this story.

Hope you enjoy! :)

"Cow."

"I gotta go Julia we've got cows!"

"Another cow!"

"Actually I think that was the same one...."

The eight of us were sitting around the large couch, enjoying the Twister movie and each other's company. I was snuggling next to Tony, while Sull and Ord did the same near us, as well as Eric and Kimahri. Aquin and Chowder even acted really friendly towards one another, though they weren't getting as close as the rest of us. Throughout the movie though, Aquin still had a weird look in his eyes when I looked over at him. I kept brushing it off though, thinking it wasn't a big deal as we kept watching the TV.

After watching the rest of Twister, it was now 12:15 A.M. on the clock above the entertainment center.

*HHHHNNNNGGGGHHH* I emitted, letting out a huge yawn while having Tony next to me. "Man I'm tired heh." I softly said to the others, though not all of them could hear me. Eric was asleep with his head on Kimahri's lap, and the big Ronso was stroking the human's face softly as he reclined the part of the couch himself. It was unbelievably cute to see the two the way they were, and as the rest of us got up, we left them alone to let them rest peacefully.

The 6 of us walked quietly into the kitchen to talk, not wanting to disturb Eric and the Ronso.

"Thanks for everything tonight Chowder. You really do have a nice place." Sull mentioned to the Tiger as we all stood around the kitchen table.

"Awwww thanks Sull. Like I said earlier, make yourselves at home upstairs, or if you want, my bedroom is right across over there. Also, where do you plan on sleeping Mike?" Chowder then asked me.

"I'll just stay in one of the guest rooms with Tony. Does that sound good hun?" I then asked the muscular Tiger next to me.

"Sure does Mike. It's kinda cold tonight as well for a spring day, perhaps we should warm each other up? Hehe." Tony replied with a naughty grin.

"Oh you two heh. Ord and I are gonna crash for the night though, thanks again Chowder. We really appreciate it." Sull finally mentioned to all of us, and with that, the Dragon and blue monster headed towards the stairway and eventually up it to head to bed.

"Where are you gonna sleep Aquin?" I then asked the Gator.

"..............I'll just stay down here and stay with those two over there." The Gator mentioned with a bit of a tired look on his own face. "See you guys tomorrow morning" Aquin then added, giving us a thumbs up and walking back over towards the couch. Kimahri was now sleeping with Eric still on him, and it almost made me pull out my phone to take a picture because of how cute it looked.

"I think I'll head up to one of the rooms myself right now." I mentioned, yawning heavily again right after that.

"Hey Mike, don't hesitate to grab anything you want if you need anything." Chowder then mentioned, coming over to me and putting his hand on my shoulder.

I quickly blushed again, and then replied "Thanks big guy, I'm going to absolutely love having you as a neighbor" with a big smile. Right after I said that, I was caught off guard as the Tiger gave me a big hug. It felt unbelievably warm though, and I happily returned the favor, blushing a bit. After we finished hugging, I exclaimed "Good night guys! See you upstairs Tony." to everyone still downstairs, though I didn't say it very loudly as I didn't want to wake Eric or Kimahri.

****

"Hey Tony, before you go upstairs with Mike, can I ask you a couple of things?" Chowder asked before Tony could step out of the kitchen to follow the human upstairs.

"What's up?" Tony replied.

"N-nah never mind, it's too embarrassing." Chowder then slurred, looking down at the floor.

"Go ahead Chowder! Ask me anything you want! I don't mind." Tony insisted, putting his own hand on the other Tiger's shoulder.

"W-well.....Mike...... is unbelievably cute and....I like him a lot. I just hope that you don't get the wrong impression or anything.....sorry if I've made you feel uncomfortable at all...." The big tiger mentioned, feeling like he was making Tony feel bad since he also had feelings for the human. However, Tony simply smiled back, and replied:

"Hey Chowder....trust me, I'm not the only one here that has had fun with Mike. You're more than welcome to come join us if you perhaps accidently end up walking into the wrong bedroom. Hehe."

"Oh.....Tony....I-i don't know if I could do that.....how would Mike feel?"

"Trust me. We love each other, but we all spread that love around between all of us. And we'd be happy to share it with you too." Tony said back with a wide grin.

"Awwwww.....thanks....Hehehe.....I might consider it, but I gotta take a shower first. If I somehow end up wandering into the wrong bedroom though, then you'll know my answer to that." Chowder replied with a VERY happy look on his face. With that, the two walked upstairs towards the bedrooms.

****

"Man I'm tired...." I mentioned, walking into one of the guest rooms and taking off my shoes and socks. I also took off my Inuyasha shirt and my jeans, though I almost wanted to put them back on, as it was a bit cold in the room. The decent sized bed in the room looked like it had never been used, and it looked like the wooden clothes drawer was brand new. There was still a lot of empty space in the room, but I wasn't really paying much attention as I snuck under the covers of the bed itself, though I turned on the mini light that was near the bed.

Before I could fall asleep though, I heard a small creek at the door. When I looked to my left, sure enough, Tony came into the room to join me.

"This is a pretty nice little room!" Tony mentioned as he started to take his own clothes off after closing the bedroom door. As he was doing so, I started to feel my heart beat faster and faster, which was ultimately the reason I wasn't asleep already.

"Awwww Tony....now I can't sleep cause I want you." I then mentioned, sitting up on the bed while the Tiger continued to undress.

"Hehehe.....I figured you would Mike. Here you go hun." The tiger said back, taking off his shirt and boxers, exposing his rock hard muscles & abs and literally climbing on the bed over me.

"Ohhhh....Tony...." I whimpered, stroking his muscles and feeling my cock quickly perk up to its fullest in less than no time.

"Mmmmmm...That feels good Mike. How about you go one step further?" The muscular tiger whispered as I started to hear him purr in a very sexy way.

I quickly nodded, and kept stroking his abs, making my way past his mid section, and eventually to his boxers. As I started to pull them down little by little, my heart was still beating immensely, and it wasn't long before I exposed Tony's HUGE cock in front of me on the bed.

"Looks tasty...." I mentioned, licking my lips as I was about to enjoy some Tiger cock. As my mouth proceeded to move in though......another noise emitted from the left of the bed.....at the door.

*CRREEEEEEKKKKK*

"Ohhhh....my. I think I wandered into the wrong bedroom!"

I looked on with a bit of shock to see Chowder walk in on the two of us, though he only had a towel wrapped around his body, and actually looked like he was blushing. He was also holding something in his hand, but I couldn't tell what it was. I felt very embarrassed and didn't know what to say, though Tony still had a bit of a naughty smile on his face when I looked up at him.

"Oh....well there's plenty of room on this bed if you wanna join us hun." Tony then insisted, which took me by surprise even more.

"Is....that ok with you....Mike?" The tiger then asked in a very innocent way, closing the bedroom door and putting some sort of bottle next to the bed where the small light stand was.

I was still pretty stunned by the whole situation, but at the same time, I was also feeling very hot right then and there with Tony in front of me, and knowing that yet another Tiger wanted to join in made me feel hotter than ever at that point.

"S-sure Chowder. I was a bit cold but now I'm getting warmed up hehe." I replied.

"Well I hope I don't disturb you two....but I might not be able to help myself....and I guess this proves it hehe." The Tiger replied, taking off his towel to reveal his cock also being erect in front of us as he walked over near the other side of our bed.

Before I could pay any more attention to the big furry Tiger near the two of us, I overheard Tony say "Hey Mike.....now where were we? Hehe."

I looked up at Tony, and noticed a look in his eyes that he wanted me right there. I quickly took my arms and wrapped them around the Tiger's head, moving his head towards mine, with the two of us eventually locking our lips together in a very hot kiss.

"Mmmmm.....uummmfff....UUNNNFFF!!!" I moaned as I then felt Tony's hand grabbing my boxers and pulling them down himself, which ultimately followed with my cock being slowly stroked by the Tiger's giant hand.

"Sooooo....cute....." I then heard Chowder's voice emit near me, as I turned my eyes and noticed the big Tiger stroking his own member off as he still stood next to our bed. I was so hot at that moment that I wanted everything that the two were going to bring to the table.

"Oh, looks like you want in? I'll be happy to share." Tony then said softly to the other Tiger, breaking my kiss and sitting up to let the other Tiger climb onto the bed with us.

"Thank you very much Tony. Hello there Mike, I hope I can pleasure you as much as this guy." Chowder whispered to me. I was still blushing heavily, knowing that two large Tigers wanted to have their fun with me. "Let's see what you've got hehehe." I replied.

"You are SOOOO CUTE Mike." Chowder finally replied, lowering his head to kiss me himself. His body felt so fuzzy and warm like when we hugged before, but at the same time, I was feeling as hot as fire right then and there as we started kissing each other.

"EEEEIIPP...."

I flinched and let out a small whimper as I then felt the fuzzy Tiger's hand stroke my cock while he continued to kiss me. Little by little, my member was building up to its climax as it was being slowly jerked off. It didn't take long for pre to start leaking from the tip of it.

"Looks tasty....I'm gonna get me some of you Mike." Tony then mentioned, though I couldn't even hear him that well as I continued to kiss Chowder. However, when I felt the muscular tiger start to suck my own member off, I knew he wasn't kidding.

"Mmmmmmm.......I-i-I'm....getting closer....." I mentioned while still kissing Chowder, opening my eyes a bit to notice the fuzzy Tiger stroking himself off while letting Tony suck me off.

"Oohhhhhh.....I....................I'm.....cumming......FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUNNNNNHHH" I exclaimed, letting my member shoot its load into Tony's mouth, with each shot pleasing the Tiger as he enjoyed the taste of it all.

"Mmmmmmmm....you're so tasty Mike. But it's time for my member to get some of you, it can't wait any longer hehe." Tony then told me as he hovered over my body while I broke my kiss with Chowder.

I simply remained silent and could only nod to let the Tiger go to work on me like usual, though I then realized...that we were leaving the other Tiger out.

"W-wait Tony.....hey Chowder.....do you want to do the honors for Tony?" I asked with a little grin and a wink.

"Oh Mike...I can't resist, you're the cutest guy I've ever met....do you mind Tony?" Chowder replied with an innocent look in his eyes.

"Heh. How could I say no to a face like that? Looks like you'll have to pleasure me Mike while our other friend has his own fun hehe." Tony then said to both Chowder and myself.

"Hang on....I gotta grab something here...." Chowder quickly replied, going over to the light stand and grabbing the small bottle that he brought with him into the room.

"Good thing I brought this in, do....you want me to loosen you up Mike?" Chowder asked, while I kept lying on the bed with Tony next to me.

"S-sure hun. Give me all you've got." I replied, still blushing madly and feeling my heart constantly beating in my chest.

"I'll give you all I've got too Mike....you let me have a taste of yourself, now I'll return you the favor hun." Tony replied, showing his massive member in front of me, throbbing as if it was just waiting for me to go to work with it.

"Mmmmmm....looks good...." I whispered, opening my mouth and slowly starting to suck off the Tiger's HUGE cock.

"Ok Mike....here I go.....I promise I'll be as gentle as I can..." I then heard Chowder say while he was on the end of the bed. As I kept sucking off Tony, I felt a couple of wet fingers protruding into my tight hole, easily moving in and out while I kept going to work on the Tiger standing next to me.

"Hhhhnnnngggghhh...." I muttered with my eyes closed. Back and forth, I was sucking Tony member faster and faster while Chowder was fingering my insides. After a while though, I finally stopped feeling Chowder's fingers moving in me.

"Let me know if this hurts at all Mike....ok?"

I opened my eyes and simply nodded back at the Tiger, while I kept on sucking Tony.

"Ohhhhh yes Mike...keep going.....you're sooooo good.....I'm getting closer hun....." Tony then mentioned to be, closing his own eyes and looking like he was enjoying every minute of it. His cock tasted so good, and I knew it was only a matter of time before I was sucking down his special frosting.

"Here I go....." I then heard Chowder say, feeling his member brush against my hole in a sort of teasing way, before he finally inserted his penis slowly inside me.

"MMMMMMMHHHHHHHH.......SOOOO....BIG...." I mentioned, as his member felt just as big as Tony's, though I still felt immense pleasure at that moment.

"Soooo...tight....you're face Mike....uuunnnngghhhh.....SOOOOO....CUTE....mmmnnnnngggghhhh" Chowder mentioned as he kept inserting himself into me while my hole kept getting used to his member as my legs were wrapped around the Tiger's neck. I kept feeling hotter and hotter as the two tigers did their work on me, and before long, Chowder started moving slowly back and forth with his member inside my tight hole.

"A little more Mike.....I'm.....gonna....FROST....YOU.....HHHHHNNNGGGGG....."

After sucking harder and harder on Tony's member, the muscular stud finally reached his climax and shot his HUGE load of seed right into my mouth. Shot after shot, his member just kept leaking of seed, covering my face, my body, and the bed as well. I swallowed a good amount of the tasty Tiger cum, but as I was doing so, the other Tiger was still working hard inside me, now moving a bit faster after my ass was now used to Chowder's member.

"Hnnnnggg....Oh Mike....." Chowder softly mentioned, still pushing himself in and out of me. As I kept feeling his cock inside me, I then felt his furry hand grab my own throbbing penis, stroking it pretty fast as I was still feeling nothing but immense pleasure from the two tigers at that one moment.

"Ohhh Chowder....harder.....fuck me harder!!!" I moaned out, now wanting everything that the fuzzy tiger could offer to me. I then felt my insides work faster and faster, and looked to see the Tiger sweating himself while he kept stroking me off. I then noticed that Tony started to stroke himself standing next to the two of us, as if he wasn't done yet with all the frosting he had to offer after I sucked him off vigorously.

"Mike.....here.....I.....cum.......Ohhhhhhh Mike!!!!! MMMMMMMMNNNNNNN"

Within what seemed like only a couple of minutes, Chowder went from sticking his member inside me, to filling my insides with his own hot semen as I felt each shot warm up the inside of my asshole. Shot after shot, the Tiger just kept his member fully in me, while he started to stroke me off harder than ever at that point.

"Oh Chowder......I'm close myself....here I come....OHHHHHH!!!!!"

The fuzzy Tiger stroked me a couple more times, and my penis eventually let out a HUGE shot of seed, covering my face and even over my face onto the pillows behind me.

"Hey.....Mike.....I have some....more frosting......here....YOU....GO!!!"

I certainly wasn't expecting Tony to be at his climax again so soon, but I gladly let him unload on me, as he covered my face with another layer of his hot Tiger frosting while Chowder slowly pulled out of me to let his own seed drain out from my tight hole.

"Sooo....good...Tony....mmmmmm" I mentioned, tasting his hot seed and wanting more. My heart was still pounding ridiculously, and the bed was almost covered completely in nothing but hot cum from the three of us.

After a couple more minutes though, the three of us calmed down along with our members, and settled into the bed, although it was a very wet set of bed sheets that the three of us had to cover over ourselves. I casually laid in the middle of the bed while Chowder climbed into the right side of the bed with me, and while Tony laid down on the left. It was definitely a crowded bed for sure, but I didn't care at all, as my heart was still pounding from having the two tigers next to me.

"I love you guys......I feel safe with you all around." I mentioned to the other two as my face lit up smiling.

"Awwwww.....I love you too Mike....." Tony mentioned, stroking my hair a bit and then giving me a quick kiss while I stroked his muscles again a little bit. My member started to get a bit excited as I was feeling the strong figure of the Tiger, though I didn't want to have my heart explode from all the fun we just had.

After I was done though, I turned to Chowder, who looked right into my eyes and smiled in a very cute way.

"And you're the cutest boy I've ever seen, even though I've only known you for a day. Still, I love you too Mike." Chowder mentioned to me, taking his fuzzy hand and massaging my face as well. I ended up doing the same back to him, and before long, the two of us kissed each other gently on the lips. Right after our long kiss, I let out a big yawn, as I was ready to collapse on the bed at any moment.

"Sleep well Mike, we're here for you." Tony mentioned, putting his arm over me, along with his head resting on top of me as I was about to fall asleep. I then felt Chowder's arm doing the same, as both Tigers seemed to hold me tightly, which made me feel unbelievably warm and comfortable.

"Good night guys...." I happily replied, putting my own arms over the two Tiger's arms, and eventually dozed off for the night.

****

*BEEP.....BEEP.....BEEP....BEEP.....BEEP.....*

"Oh man....I hope he's going to be okay......Hey.....nurse, so you said he's resting right now?"

"Yes, unfortunately had a lot of cuts and bruises, and he also inhaled some smoke it seems. Thank god you were able to get him here when you could."

"Yeah.....well.....it wasn't easy carrying him here....."

"Wait....carrying him here? How did you do that??" The nurse asked with a confused look.

"Well.....it goes like this...."

<<<<<<

"Man....what a workout....my wings are tired....." Dracon thought to himself as he was flying in the night sky, flying over the neighborhoods and trees on his way back home from the gym.

Solo flying was a very strict policy all over the country, as many states actually banned it completely (except for licensed aircrafts), and the ones that did allow it all required people to have permits to fly only in designated zones. Not to mention that flying in major cities was also a punishable crime.

"I just hope that I don't get the police on my tail like last time.....ugh.... can't wait till I get back near New Hampshire..." The muscular red and black Dragon thought to himself as he continued to flap his wings through the clear starry night, flying from his favorite gym that was near New York City, and all the way back towards his home town in southern New Hampshire.

"*FLAP....FLAP*I think I need to rest...I worked my wings too hard here *FLAP....FLAP* Wait.....what's that smell?? Is something burning??"

The red dragon stopped flying and continued to hover in the air, still flapping his wings and smelling out where that stench was coming from. As he turned his head towards the right, he then widened his eyes when he noticed what was rising in the air not too far from him.

"Is that...smoke??" Dracon asked himself, flying towards the giant column of blackness that kept rising into the sky. As he got closer to the smoke, he then noticed what was going on as he made it towards the street of the neighborhood where everything was occurring.

"HOLY SHIT!!!!"

The Dragon quickly pulled out his cell phone from his pocket, and landed his body onto the street only about a couple hundred feet from the blazing house that was burning right in front of him. It was then that the Dragon noticed something out of the corner of his eye.

"Oh my god!!!"

The Dragon then noticed a body lying motionless less than 20 feet from the burning house, and quickly ran over to the body while trying to get through all the smoke that was near his body.

*Pant.....Pant.....* "Shit! Fuck he's bleeding badly! I can't afford to wait for the fire department to get here! HHNNNGGG...."

Dracon quickly grabbed the motionless Lion and ran as quickly as he could from the building, completely ignoring the thought of calling 9-1-1 as he was more focused on trying to get the Lion in his arms to the nearest hospital as fast as he could.

*Pant...pant.....FLAP FLAP FLAP FLAP...FLAP....FLAP...FLAP*

In a span of less than a couple of minutes, Dracon grabbed the motionless body and left the burning house as it was, not even thinking if anyone else was inside as he started to quickly fly as fast as he could to the nearest hospital.

"Shit! He's....heavy! and I can't fly directly towards the hospital...that's a no fly zone! Well hopefully it's late enough for no one to notice.....hnnnngg......" The red dragon thought to himself, flying over all the streets as fast as he could to try to make it to the Hospital without getting in trouble, though he was struggling to hold the Lion in his arms at the same time.

After flying a good amount of time over several neighborhoods in the Queens area, the Dragon finally noticed a hospital that was not too far from him, and he quickly flew towards it, and landed near the side of the building while holding the burned & lacerated Lion in his arms.

"Unnnggghhh......" The lion barely murmured as he was completely unaware of anything.

"Don't you die on me man....." The dragon thought, having his gym bag around his arm while rushing the Lion's body to the front of the hospital.

"NURSE! DOCTOR! I NEED SOMEONE TO HELP ME!"

The Dragon's roar caught nearly everyone's attention in the hospital after the Dragon ran into the entrance with the body in his arms, and soon after, a whole team of Doctors were there to bring the Lion into the intensive care unit.

>>>>>>

"And that's basically how I got here.....can you just not tell anyone that I flew here nurse?" The Dragon asked with an innocent look on his face, even though he stood MUCH taller than the human nurse in front of him.

"Your secret is safe with me. You seem like a very muscular dragon, I guess you got a real workout from bringing that guy here haha." The nurse laughed back.

"I'm sorry nurse....I can't joke around here....do you know if he's going to be ok?"

"Sorry about that. Only time will tell....but like I said, it's a good thing you got him here quickly, cause we were able to treat him for his wounds and burn marks. If all goes well though, he should make a full recovery, though it will be a few weeks.

"Well, at least he'll be okay, that's what matters most. I have no idea who he is though, and I hope that someone took care of that house.....oh crap.....I hope no one else was in there....." The Dragon suddenly realized, putting his hands on his face, feeling bad that he didn't stay to check to make sure if anyone else needed help.

"Hey there, you did what you could, and that's what matters. I just do hope that no one else was hurt myself, but we should be able to know eventually once our Lion friend wakes up." The nurse replied, comforting the red dragon as she put her hand on his broad shoulder.

"T-thanks nurse. I guess I'll just stay here and wait for him to wake up so I can go see him." Dracon replied, eventually heading over and taking a seat in the waiting area outside of the room that the Lion was in. However, Dracon's muscles were still very fatigued from his workout as well as bringing the Lion to the hospital, and he soon fell asleep on the couch not long after.

"Time to get paid boys, let's get out shit and hit up some bitches downtown!" Loco Chavez exclaimed to the rest of his gang, as the group of Mexican humans got out of their car near the warehouse.

"YEAHHHH!!!" The rest of the gang replied, all high fiving each other and in high spirits as they walked towards the end door of the warehouse, about to head inside.

Loco opened up the door of the place, and quickly noticed the boss sitting at a table in the back area of the warehouse along with Marcus, Andre, Tristen, Gordon, and Jamie as well, as the group seemed to be inspecting different types of items at the table they were sitting.

"Oh look, they're back boss." Gordon mentioned, noticing the group walking into the warehouse.

"Time to PAY them guys. Get the suitcases." Boss mentioned, with the group getting up from the table and walking over to Loco and his group of thugs.

"SO......did you do what I asked?" Marco asked the group as Tristen, Andre, and Gordon walked over to another area of the warehouse to grab what the boss asked for, while Marcus and Jamie stood next to the white tiger.

"Hey man, it's all taken care of homie. That Tiger won't be giving you any trouble at all ever again vato after he gets back from wherever he is in massachusetts" Loco mentioned to the boss and the others, while the gang noticed a couple of suitcases being brought over by the rest of Marco's henchmen.

"Wait.....where is he in Massachusetts?" Marco asked.

"What was it Chet, you said you found something that said Salisbury?" Loco asked one of his gang members.

"Yeah, like Salisbury steak vato. That's why it's easy to remember."

"Well I'm sure he'll be back from whatever he's doing soon.

And you guys MADE SURE they got the job done?" Boss then asked towards Jamie, Tristen, and Gordon, who were the lookouts for Loco's group.

"Yep, they spent a lot of time there it seemed and kept in contact with us on the walkies." Tristen replied, with Gordon and Jamie nodding as well.

"Good.....good.....well, I guess it's time to pay you boys then." Marco replied with a bit of a sadistic grin on his face.

"Yeah!" "Alright!" A couple of Loco's men mentioned to each other, exchanging high fives and smiling while Andre, Gordon, and the boss walked over to the suitcases, and carefully opened them on the table next to them.

*CLICK....CLICK*

After opening each suitcase to reveal a couple of towels in each suitcase with the logo "SARATOGA SPRINGS" on each towel, Marco looked at his henchmen, and put their hands under each towel, grabbing what was lying underneath.

"So how much are we getting paid? We did the j-HEY HE'S...."

*CLATTLE CLATTLE CLATTLE "FU-...." CLATTLE CLATTLE "HHNNGGGHH!!!" BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG CLATTLE CLATTLE*

"Thank you for taking care of my problem. Now you guys have a nice day. Tristen, Andre, get rid of them.

In a span of less than 10 seconds, Marco and his men had pulled out three Uzi's from the suitcases and unloaded on all five members of the Mexican gang, leaving them all lying in a GIANT pool of blood.

"Jamie, Marcus, clean this shit up. Gordon, help me inspect more of this shipment over here before we wrap up for the night. I'm glad that my Tiger problem is over with." Boss finally mentioned, with the rest of the group doing exactly what the white tiger had ordered.

****

"Mmmmmnnnnn....." I mentioned, opening my eyes to feel myself being sandwiched in-between two Tigers, one whom had his face brushing up against mine (which happened to be Tony). I quickly rubbed my face back at the muscular tiger, putting my hand on Tony's face and giving him a quick kiss, though his eyes were still closed. I wasn't even awake for 15 seconds, and yet my member was already perking up as I felt unbelievably hot with both Tony and Chowder next to me, as I thought they were the two cutest & sexiest tigers I had ever met.

*purrrrrrrrr...............*

I then heard the purring noise emit from Tony as he brushed up against my face even more now, and I quickly wrapped my arms around him in a loving way to show how happy I was to have the big guy there sleeping next to me again, as this was the first time I had actually slept with my Tiger ever since those series of unfortunate events went down beforehand.

"I see you're up cutie." I then heard another voice emit behind me. I then felt and noticed Chowder's large fuzzy hand stroke my face from behind, and I quickly turned to see the big Tiger smiling right at me.

"Hey there big guy....sleep well?" I asked, returning the favor and stroking Chowder's face as well. Neither one of us could help it at that moment, and the two of us leaned into each other and engaged in a long, sort of wake up type kiss. It was also at that moment that the Tiger's cock started to brush up against mine as we were holding each other tightly while kissing each other.

"I-I see you want more from last night Mike? hehe" The big Tiger then insisted after breaking the kiss with me.

"Well I need to clean myself up anyway hun after the fun we had....I still feel a bit sticky hehe." I replied, sitting up on the bed and stretching a bit.

"Would you mind if I join you hun? Chowder asked, getting up himself.

"You don't need to ask me, of course you can. Then again, we shouldn't leave this guy out." I mentioned with a smile, looking over at Tony who seemed to be just waking up himself.

As the muscular tiger's eyes opened, he quickly looked at the two of us and grinned.

"UNNNNGGGGGGGHHHHH.....H-hey, I hope you two didn't do anything else without me heh." Tony told us as he emitted a HUGE yawn, sitting up himself on the bed.

"Oh no, don't worry hun, we just got up ourselves. I'm just so happy I was able to sleep comfortably with you here again with me Tony." I replied, smiling at the Tiger and looking up at him.

"Awww...Mike, I'm glad I'm here with you. I'll make sure nothing happens to you ever again, and that's a promise, okay?" Tony insisted back.

"Thanks Ton, I love you." I then said back, moving in and kissing Tony very passionately, with the two of us holding each other tightly on the bed while Chowder happily looked on.

"You two are so perfect for each other. I think we need to get cleaned up here though, shall we?" The fuzzy Tiger asked the two of us.

"I guess we have no other choice hehe." I replied, still hugging Tony as we all got out of bed, and headed out of the room towards the bathroom.

I noticed that it was pretty early on the clock in the hallway, as it was only 8:45. The other occupied guest bedroom door was still shut, which made us assume that Ord and Sull were still sleeping. We didn't check how the others were doing downstairs, but figured they were all still sleeping too as we heard no noise emitting from down there.

As the three of us walked into the shower to get cleaned up, I realized that I forgot something very obvious at my house next door, and then realized that Tony forgot it as well. Our change of clothes.

"I'll need to head back next door to get changed after this guys, though I'll just wear the same clothes again in the meantime." I mentioned to the other two. Tony then replied "Oh yeah....I left my stuff at your house too....oh well, I'll get changed into fresh clothes after heh."

I nodded back, and got into the shower with the two Tigers, with the three of us being completely naked. As the hot water turned on, my body heat immediately shot way up, and so did another part of my body as the water ran through my hair and the rest of myself.

"Oh Mike.....I guess we both can't help ourselves.....hehe" Chowder mentioned to me, as I then noticed his cock was also becoming erect in front of me as I stood in-between himself and Tony. Before long, our cocks were rubbing a bit against each other, though I then felt yet another "body part" rubbing against my ass from behind.

"Make that all three of us." Tony mentioned, as I looked behind me and noticed his HUGE member brushing against my ass cheeks a bit, as the muscular tiger stood tall and put his hand on my shoulder, and started to wash my back with soap.

"Ohhh...Tony....that feels nice...." I replied, moaning a tad as the tiger pretty much massaged the back of my body with soap, working very gently all around me while I still felt his member rubbing up against me.

"Want me to also wash you Mike?" Chowder then asked as he was already washing himself up, offering to take care of me while the lovable fuzzy Tiger stood in front of me with a wide grin on his face. I really couldn't turn him down, even if I wanted to with the cute expression on his face.

"Sure hun.....clean me up as much as you want." I insisted.

"I love how cute you are Mike." Chowder then replied, going to work on the front part of my body while I felt Tony's hands making their way further and further down my back, eventually reaching my ass.

"Want me to clean you up on the inside as well?" Tony whispered to me, brushing his face against mine as we turned and kissed again.

"Give me everything you've got Tony......mmmnnnnnnn....." I replied, enjoying every moment of the two Tigers working on me in the shower.

"I then turned back to Chowder, and realized that he already washed my upper part of my body, and he was finally down past my stomach.

"C-can I...." Chowder began to ask as he looked like he was able to kneel on the floor to go to work on my erect cock.

"O-of course Chowder....mmmnnnnn......Ohhhhh....HHHHHHNNNNNNGGGGGG!!!" I then exclaimed, as I felt Tony's huge member go from rubbing against my ass cheeks to inserting itself inside me, while Tony's hands spread my ass wide open. As his member was getting used to my tight hole once again, my moans went from small bursts, to HUGE shouts of nothing but pure pleasure, as right after Tony inserted himself into me, Chowder started stroking my cock little by little, kneeling down on the shower floor as if he was about to engulf my cock into his mouth.

"Ohhhhhh.....Tony....Chowder......sooooo....good!" I moaned out, feeling my body start to sweat a lot as the hot water continued to shower down upon the three of us.

It wasn't long before Chowder went from stroking my cock, to putting my cock in his mouth as he started to slowly suck it little by little, while Tony rested his head on my shoulder as he started moving back and forth inside me. It was just as hot as the shower I took with Sull and Ord only a couple weeks before then, and I didn't want the pleasure to end.

"Y-you're sooo...tasty Mike...." Chowder spoke in a muffled voice as he continued to suck me off.

****

"HHHNNNGGGGGHHHH....W-what time is it??" Eric asked, waking up and feeling Kimahri's arm over him as the human started to stretch a bit.

"Hmmmmmm?" the Ronso then asked, opening his eyes himself and also emitting a pretty big yawn himself. The two sat up on the couch and then realized that Aquin was sitting next to the couple, though he was still sound asleep.

"I guess we should keep quiet around the gator here." Eric quietly mentioned to Kimahri. The ronso nodded back, and the two quietly got off the couch to see if the others were up at all. However, when they noticed that no one else was around the bottom floor, they figured that everyone was still sleeping.

"Wanna just wait for the rest of them to wake up hun? It's only 9:00." Kimahri asked the human.

"Sure, we can cuddle more while we wait hehe." Eric happily replied, as the two went back to the GIANT couch and laid down together, with Eric lying on top of the muscular Ronso as they embraced each other in a hug.

"I love you hun." Eric said softly to the big guy.

"I love you too Eric. You're so cute." Kimahri replied, and the two started kissing each other on the couch for a good amount of time while Aquin still slept next to them.

*CREEK......CREEK.....CREEK.....CREEK.....*

While Eric and Kimahri were kissing each other, they failed to notice that Sull and Ord walked downstairs, each fully dressed and ready to start the day again.

"Wow....is everyone still asleep?" Ord quietly asked the furry blue monster.

"Well, we do know who is awake in the shower upstairs hehe." Sully replied, and the two both grinned a bit naughtily.

"H-hello? Oh! Hey guys!" Eric mentioned as he poked his head over the couch to see Sull and Ord, though he completely forgot that Aquin was sleeping next to the two, and his greeting ended up waking the gator.

"Oh! I'm sorry for waking you Aquin!" Eric apologized.

"I-it's no worry Eric.....I just have this feeling though in my head still....that something happened..." The gator replied, sitting up on the couch and actually trying to concentrate on his inner thoughts, as he closed his eyes in a relaxing sort of way. The rest of the guys near the gator left him alone, and decided to head into the kitchen that was right ahead of the living room.

"So what do you wanna do? I guess we should wait for the other three to come downstairs?" Eric asked Sull and Ord, as the four sat at the kitchen table.

"Might as well, and I guess we can use this time to get to know each other better!" Sully happily replied. Eric, Kimahri, and Ord quickly agreed and the four started to chat around the kitchen table for a bit while waiting for the others.

"Ohhhhh.....Mike....I'm so close hun......." Tony mentioned, moving faster and faster inside me, and also playfully biting my shoulder which at first hurt a bit, but quickly became pleasurable while the two tigers kept working on me. My member felt like it was about to erupt at any moment, and as Chowder started bobbing his head on my cock faster than ever, I couldn't hold in anymore.

"F-f-faster Tony....Oh god....I'm gonna cum Chowder.......OHHHHHHHHHH!!!! HHHNNNGGGGGGGGHH!!!!" I exclaimed, feeling my member shoot out an ENORMOUS amount of seed right into the big Tiger's mouth and face. Chowder seemed to enjoy the taste of my hot seed, as he was swallowing each shot that I unloaded onto him.

"Mmmm...tasty Mike....just like you." The Tiger mentioned as my cock winded down after unloading all over the fuzzy Tiger. He seemed like he didn't want it to end, and as he got slowly off the shower floor, he started stroking his own cock while Tony was now pounding my ass at a ridiculously fast rate.

"Oh Mike.....here.......enjoy my frosting....again......ROOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!" Tony roared out, pushing his cock inside me one final time as I felt my insides warm up once again with hot Tiger seed, as Tony's HUGE cock felt like it was never going to stop shooting out since I could feel each shot inside me, one by one as it didn't seem to slow down at all.

"Oh....tony....hnnnngggghhhh.....soooo warm......" I uttered, pressing against the shower walls as he kept shooting his load into me. I wanted everything from the Tiger right then and there, though my insides felt like they couldn't take in any more of Tony's hot semen. Eventually though, I felt his member slowly pull out of me as he seemed to finally be done unloading himself, though my ass shot out a HUGE load of Tony's cum right back onto the Tiger's member as my hole started to drain itself. The hot water had now turned semi-warm as we were in the shower for a good period of time, though we finally finished washing each other up and cleaning ourselves from the fun we had, and eventually turned off the water to get out and dry off.

"You were amazing Mike.....and like I said, you taste sooooo good as well." Chowder mentioned to me as he wrapped a towel around himself once again, as did Tony and myself as well.

"I gotta go grab my clothes in my bedroom downstairs, hopefully the others won't mind hehe." Chowder told the two of us, as he walked down the hall towards the stairway while the Tony and I headed back into the guest bedroom to put on our clothes we wore from yesterday, at least temporarily.

"Seems like these shirts feel too big for me after losing all this weight over the last week...." I mentioned as my Inuyasha shirt easily slipped on over my body.

"Do you like it like that, or do you wish you were the same as before?" Tony asked while he put on his own clothes. Just getting a glimpse of his muscles as he put on his blue shirt and jeans made my heart jump a bit while I kept putting my clothes back on.

"Well, I kinda wish I were more muscular, but I also feel a bit colder now that I barely have any stomach fat left here." I replied, as I finished getting dressed along with Tony.

"If you wanna build muscle, I can definitely help you out with that hun." Tony replied, giving me a nudge on the shoulder as we both left the guest room to go downstairs.

"I bet you could Tony hehehe. I'll have to consider, I should at least work out more in general anyway."

The two of us walked downstairs, and noticed that Chowder had his own bedroom door closed, as we figured he was getting changed.

"Hey you two!" Sull exclaimed as he noticed us walking down the stairs, while the rest of the guys were in the kitchen, except for Aquin.

"Hey there." I replied, noticing the four sitting around the table, though they weren't really doing anything in particular.

"So, what you guys up to?" Tony asked curiously.

"Oh, well we're getting to know each other better, but we're letting Aquin do his thing in the other room, he looks like he doesn't want to be bothered." Eric pointed out. Tony and I quickly poked our heads in to the living room to see the Gator simply sitting on the couch with his eyes closed.

"Yeah....I think it's best to leave him be."

"By the way you two....I heard something going on in the bathroom while we headed downstairs here. I guess you two couldn't help yourselves?" Sull asked with a VERY naughty smile on his face.

"Well, it wasn't just us.... There was another Tiger that couldn't hold back his feelings for Mike here." Tony then replied, which made me blush heavily. The rest of the gang smiled back, and Eric then asked "So what do you guys want to do t-...."

*BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG* *DING DONG*

All of us including Aquin heard the front door banging suddenly along with a few rings of the doorbell to go along with it.

"Who could that be?" I asked, walking from the kitchen and past the living room near Aquin, eventually making it to the front door. I figured I'd see who it was since Chowder was still in his own bedroom getting changed.

*CREEEEK*

I opened the door slowly, only to be very surprised to see my Dad standing there, breathing heavily as if he just ran from our house next door to Chowder's house.

"Dad? What's going on??" I asked, as my Dad walked into the house. I then heard another door open behind me, as Chowder came out wearing some normal clothing, though he had his café apron as well as a fundoshi in his hand, which I wasn't sure was the best thing to be holding right in front of my Dad. My dad wasn't really paying attention to Chowder though, as he seemed to have a serious look on his face.

"Oh! Hi there!" Chowder happily mentioned as my dad walked inside. The rest of the gang also greeted my Dad, though my Dad was still catching his breath as he settled in.

"M-Mike.....Tony.....did you hear what happened?!?!" My dad panted out.

"N-no....what?" I replied. I looked at Tony, only to see him shrug his shoulders, as he didn't know what was going on, nor did any of us know what was going on either.

"W-well....I was watching the news after your mom and brother left for school.....wait....check the news right now, they still might be talking about it."

I was VERY confused at that moment as well as Tony, but we all walked into the living room, and turned on the HDTV to see what was going on.

"What channel did you see it on?" I asked as I grabbed the remote on the couch, and started flipping through the single digit channels to see what the news stations were reporting.

"I saw it on Channel 4....check channel 7 though....WAIT....THERE!" My dad exclaimed, as I stopped the remote on channel 4 itself before I could channel surf at all, in which the TV channel was showing a fireman being interviewed. As he was being interviewed though, I then realized....that the area behind the news reporter and the firefighter looked oddly familiar. (Channel 4 was also one of the only news stations that reported stories frequently outside of New England as well.)

"Turn it up Mike!" A couple of voices emitted near me. I quickly nodded and put the volume really high on the TV, to hear the words "Luckily no one was inside the house when it burned down." emit from the firefighter, before the camera turned back to the female news reporter.

"And as you can see behind me, this house located on Kairos Drive is pretty much destroyed as you can see the reminiscence of what's left. Luckily though, no one was found inside the house when the firefighters eventually put out the blaze. There have been a few reports that this could have been a case of arson, but as of right now, there has been no official ruling on what started this fire in the first place. What's even more amazing though is the fact that I'm being told that this house had been burning for quite some time, and it was only when a police car noticed a column of smoke off the highway that this house was found to be burning. And you can also see that the house near it that appears to be listed as 14 Kairos Drive doesn't seem to be damaged either, which is quite remarkable since it was next to a house that burned for several hours. No one knows who this house officially belongs to, but as you can see, it's a good thing that the homeowners weren't injured. Reporting live from Douglaston here in Queens, New York, I'm Alicia Hiragana, back to you John and Heather.

".................................."

".............................................."

"Thank you Alicia, we're actually just finding out now that there may have been a victim of that horrific house fire, as we are getting word of a report from the Elmhurst hospital in Queens that 25 year old Junir Espinoza was emitted into the ICU last night because of a housefire, which could be connected to what we just reported here at Newscenter 4. We are being told that the alleged victim is in stable condition, and we will bring you more coverage when we find out more about the situation. Now let's go to weather with Mike in the studio."

"......." "............................................"

"Oh....shit.....dey fucked up dat shit BIGTIME." Marcus whispered to his brother quietly, as both bears along with the boss watched the small TV in their warehouse, seeing what happened on the news regarding Tony's house, and also noticing that the boss was not saying anything as they all watched the news report.

"Don't say no bullshit to boss, he don't look happy." Andre whispered back to his brother, as the two slowly walked away from the TV to unload a few more drug cartons from the recent shipment the group had gotten over the last day, while Tristen, Gordon, and Jamie were out exchanging more deals with potential customers all over the region.

As the two bears grabbed a crowbar and began to pry open another crate full of bags of crack-cocaine, they then noticed the boss getting up from his seat near the TV.

".......those......MOTHER......FUCKERS!!!" *SMASH* "ting....clatter......clatter*

The boss grabbed his own chair, and smashed it on the ground, sending the bolts, nuts, and chair legs all over the place, some of which came right up to the feet of the two bears. Both bears tried to avoid eye contact with the furious white tiger, though they couldn't avoid the look on Marco's face as he walked towards the two of them, as if he wanted to kill the next thing that stood in his way.

"YOU TWO. GET OVER HERE."

"Y-yea boss?" Marcus replied, actually hesitating as he spoke, never feeling as intimidated as he did right there. As both bears walked up to the boss, Marco started walking side to side in front of them.

"You see, I have this problem you two. And you know, this shit would have never started if you didn't get busted in the first place. But now, because of that ONE incident and everything that followed it, I have lost A LOT of my customers, as well as my workers, because this one fucking Tiger simply WILL NOT DIE. And as each second goes by that he's still alive, I get more and more furious knowing that you two are the fucking reason why my business is going downhill since you messed with him in the first place."

"B-but boss....you let us have our revenge on that puny human, remember? Don't you re-"

"SHUT YOUR FUCKING FACE ANDRE." *CLICK*

*BANG*

*O_O* *O_O*

Both bears had their eyes wide open as the white tiger took out his pistol and shot a bullet right in-between where the two brothers were standing, missing their heads by only inches.

"I DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED WITH THAT FUCKING HUMAN NOW. HE WAS ONLY PART OF THE PROBLEM. YOU GOT THAT PROCESSED IN YOUR BRAIN YOU TWO, OR DO I NEED TO TAKE YOUR BRAIN OUT OF YOUR SKULL WITH A BULLET?" *CLICK*

The boss furiously lashed out at the two bears, pointing the pistol right at both of them.

"NO BOSS DON'T, We-we'll take care of this ourselves, right Marcus?"

"Y-yeah boss, no worries bout' that Tiger, we'll make sure he gets popped in the head, is that good?" Both brothers frantically explained to the boss.

"And just WHERE do you expect to find Tony now that his alleged house is no longer intact?" Marco asked in a VERY angry voice.

"W-well remember when Loco's boys mentioned dat Tony was possibly out in some area called Salisbury? I think we should check it out there." Marcus insisted, checking to make sure he had money with him for the long drive ahead.

"You two find whatever you can.........in the meantime though, get your asses out of my fucking warehouse."

"Let's go pop a cap in that fucking Tiger bro." Andre exclaimed, as both he and his brother headed out the door.

Right as the two opened the door, the two bears were about to head towards their car, before they heard a voice behind them.

"HEY."

Both bears turned around.....and opened their eyes widely.

"W-woah boss......why you glowing....black and shit....?" Andre asked, as both brothers looked on to see the white Tiger having his body enshrouded almost completely in black, along with his eyes and hair.

"If this problem isn't taken care of.....I'm going to make your lives a living hell. YOU GOT THAT?"

Both bears quickly nodded (almost in a fearful way), and got into one of the cars in the warehouse lot, quickly driving off to take care of the problem, even though they both seemed like they needed to get away from the boss as well for a little while.

"Damn, boss be trippin on some mad shit!" Marcus exclaimed as the two bears let out a heavy sigh while leaving the driveway in their old car.

"Yeah...but how do we know Tony's gonna be there? We got nothing to go on....."

"Well that pussy of a Tiger is pretty popular, right? Someone's bound to get his picture on the internet or on TV at some point....though it won't be easy for us to get a hold of shit like dat.

"Luckily I'm a step ahead of you bro. I snagged one of them smartphones off of Loco's dead men last night, look at dis shit." Andre mentioned, pulling out what looked to be an old Android phone out of his pocket.

"Damn, that's good shit there! Don't use it now though, don't you gotta charge da battery?" Marcus asked, continuing to drive the car on the main road to head towards the highway.

"Well it says here that da battery is nearly full, so we got some usage for it for now nigga."

"Well try to find anything you can about Tony, we need to get rid of him, otherwise we might as well never make good paper from boss again."

"Yeah....and boss is trippin mad lately, I don't wanna deal with that shit he's givin."

"I have no idea where Salisbury is, so we should use that phone for directions." Marcus pointed out.

"Good idea nigga."

The two finished their conversation and eventually got onto the highway, making the long trek towards Massachusetts to try to carry out what the boss demanded.

Meanwhile, back at the warehouse....

****

*CREEEEEEK*

"WHO THE FUCK IS THERE?" Boss lashed out, nearly screaming as the warehouse door opened only a few minutes after the Klodia brothers had left the area.

"Whoa boss....it's me." Gordon replied, as the human mercenary walked in with a few bags in his hand filled with marijuana, and also holding a suitcase in his other hand.

"Oh....sorry. How did everything go out there?"

"Good, VERY good. Sold some of our products to a couple of buyers, look at this." The human replied, opening the suitcase to reveal A HUGE amount of money inside, filled with $50 and $100 bills.

"Excellent work Gordon. You have pleased me unlike Marcus and Andre." Boss replied with a little bit of an evil grin, taking the suitcase and bringing it over to a table to count out the money.

"Wait, what did they do??" Gordon asked as he placed the remaining bags of drugs on another table.

"Long story short, Loco's gang fucked up what I told them to do."

"Wow.....good thing we got rid of them, they didn't even get the job done right....."

"Yeah well, that brings me to you, Jamie, and Tristen. Those two aren't here, but I'm going to give you the business here right now."

"W-what do you mean boss?" Gordon replied with a bit of hesitation.

"You better listen to me. You were the lookout for that gang, are you SURE that was Tony's house?"

"Yeah! I'm positive! They said they found the address of Tony's house on their phone!"

"Well guess what. They destroyed the house, and you know what they forgot to do? Go on, take a guess."

"........"

The human really felt like he was being backed into a corner by the boss right there, nearly trembling in fear as he then noticed the boss's face turning into a dark color, along with the rest of his body.

"Still can't figure it out? Well I'll give you a little hint. Some Lion is in the fucking hospital right now, and I have absolutely no idea who the fuck that guy is, and my MAIN problem is STILL NOT FUCKING TAKEN CARE OF! *CLICK* *BANG*

*O_O*

Gordon remained speechless and had nearly all of his hairs standing up on his body as the boss took out his pistol and shot it right over the shoulder of the human, much like beforehand with Marcus and Andre.

"B-boss, you have to b-b-believe me, we made sure they planted everything at the right house!" Gordon replied hesitantly, though he was actually lying as they only acted as the lookouts when everything went down.

"Well you know what, this is on you, Jamie, and Tristen. Right when th-"

"CRRRRREEEEEEKKKKK"

"Hey boss, we're ba-....WHOA....what's going on?!" The bull asked, as both he and the Orca walked into the warehouse with their own suitcases, each looking on to see the boss with a pistol in his hand, glowing a black color as Gordon was standing in front of him, with a look of fear on his face.

"I'LL TELL YOU WHAT'S GOING ON. DID YOU HEAR WHAT THEY SAID ON THE NEWS?" Boss furiously shouted back as both the bull and the orca put their suitcases on a nearby table, and walked over to the Tiger.

"N-no....what did they say?" Jamie replied.

"Ugh.....you know what, get out of here, you three. I'll make this simple for you. Since that Lion is going to obviously be a pain in my side, and since there's a small chance that perhaps he knows Tony if in case that WAS the right house that Loco's men took care of, I want you three to finish him off, one way or another. GOT IT?"

"Yes boss!" "YES SIR." "Got it." The three replied confidently.

"GOOD. They said that the supposedly injured Lion was at the Elmhurst Hospital Center in the Queens area. You better not disappoint me, do whatever it takes to finish off that Lion, whether it's putting a bullet in his head in his own hospital bed or running him over with your fucking car when he gets out. Just TAKE CARE OF MY PROBLEM." Marco shouted at the three.

The three quickly nodded, and walked over to one of the tables to grab their Uzi's. They quickly loaded their automatics, walked out of the warehouse, and got into their car to drive off just like Marcus and Andre did so beforehand.

As the three left the warehouse lot, boss looked on, still having his body enshrouded in black a little bit, and then said to himself "Looks like I'm going to have to get my hands dirty with this. It's now my turn to roll the dice Tony."
