Team Argos Book 1: The Unveilling

Chapter 5: Aftermath

By: Jear77

Tom & Art

After being transported back to Art's room, Tom asked "Where were we," placing his paw flat on Art's chest.

Art said firmly, "Before we left, you were about to be escorted out of my room."

"Let's sit down and talk awhile," Tom said, motioning the couch.

Art shook his head tiredly and said, "No. You'll turn your 'talk' into something else. It's not that I wouldn't enjoy it. I would! But probably too much. And then I would get hurt when you broke up with me when it didn't work out because we weren't ready for this yet. We don't really know each other because we've not had time to really talk."

"Talk is cheap" Tom said as he stepped closer to Art, rubbing him through his stretchy pants and whispered to him seductively, "Tell me that this doesn't feel good, that you don't want this now." As Art moaned, grinding into Tom's hand, he continues "I can feel you hardening"

Momentarily weakening, Art closes his eyes and lets Tom rub him. As Art's stands there enjoying his ministrations, Tom kneels down and starts undoing his belt. Tom unbuttons and unzips Art's pants, pulling them down around his ankles. As Tom pulled down Art's underwear, his erection sprung out of its confines. "Ooh," Tom said appreciatively, "You've grown! What a big boy" before opening his mouth like a porn star about to take Art's sizable cock all the way to his balls.

Snapping out of his hormone induced trance Art while shoving Tom away, said bitterly, "No. I can't do this. All I am to you is some sort of freak show!" Regaining control of himself, he grabs his raging hard-on and stuffs it back into his underwear, and pulls up his pants. "Go!" he shouts pointing to the door.

"That's not what I meant, all I was doing is talking dirty to you, and you know it!" Tom said getting to his feet.

"Go!" he repeated wearily. "And for the record, no I don't. We don't know each other like that. We really don't know each other at all. We've barely met. That's why I said that I wanted to take it slow to get to know you." Sighing, he continued, "It's too late, and I'm exhausted. I don't want to do it like this. We'll talk later, when neither one of us are so tired or stressed. Friends?"

"Friends. I was trying to relieve you of your stress. You need it, more than you know."

"I'll be fine." Art growled, irritated, but softened "Or at least I would have been had you left me alone. I wouldn't have to jack off if you hadn't been so pushy."

Tom grinned evilly, laughing "The offer still stands, if you're willing."

"No!" Art said firmly. "And besides, we've both got work tomorrow."

"Work can wait, now that I've got my own lab."

"Remember what happened last time you were 'experimenting' at your lab. It's what caused us both to get into this mess. Truth to say, I'd just as soon not been dealt this hand by fate."

"That 'lab' was not supposed to be in use, may I remind you? Sometimes independence is both a blessing and a curse." Pausing a moment he continues, nodding in the direction of Art's prominent boner in his pants, "Are you sure I can't change your mind about taking care of that?"

"No!" Art said firmly. "Seriously, we'll get to know each other, then we'll decide where to go from there."

"Awh," Tom whined, but then nodded saying, "Agreed." Shaking his head, he admitted "You're right. I'm pretty beat myself. Morning will probably come sooner than I'd like." Winking to Art, Tom said "You can't say that you didn't enjoy that, though."

Laughing, Art said "You're right. But seriously, before hopping into bed or having sex, I'd really like to get to know you as a person first." He laughingly said "Now get out of here, before I change my mind about the friends part!"

"Oh, ok, you win!" Closing his eyes he thought Matt, bring me back to my lab.

A moment later, when he reopened his eyes he was in his lab.

In the Warehouse

Phoenix asked "And what is your interest in all of this?"

"They turned me into this fighting the spider, I later found out. And I'm going to make them PAY!" Heckle said.

"You may try, but only because it amuses me. Make sure not to fail." Phoenix leaned forward, his face becoming covered in shadows, and said menacingly, "You won't be happy if you do."

"Oh, you can bet that I won't. I'll keep you updated." Laughing maniacally, Heckle back-flipped, tossing a whip to the ceiling beam, and taking Dog with him, he swung up to the rafters and disappeared.

Phoenix snapped his fingers, summoning shadows and commanded them saying, "Watch Heckle carefully. Report to me what he does, where he goes, and who he talks to. Now, GO!" The shadows disappear in a blur and turning to the others, he said "I guess with that, we are dismissed."

As Sasha saw the newcomer leave, she thought Damn, this could change everything!

Robin & Kiva

After Robin was caught by Kiva and kissed him, Robin fell into a deep coma. Matt transported them both to the hospital through the Maze. After they filled out all the appropriate forms, they ended up in the room next door to the anthro spider. Kiva refused to leave Robin's side, and so Matt had to cover for both of them by pretending to be a family friend who said that an emergency came up.

Art

Alone now, art took off his spandex superhero uniform as he went to his shower, clothes going every which way, his prominent boner sticking out of his body. Not paying attention to where he was going he smashed his foot into the leg of a table and lost his erection. Channeling the damage from his foot, he tried an experiment. Instead of the damage causing his whole body to grow, concentrating, he caused his flaccid cock and balls to grow. Hitting his foot again as hard as he could, he did so again, causing them to get even larger to make sure that he wasn't dreaming. Smiling, he thought, Maybe having these powers isn't so bad after all.

In the Warehouse

All of the anthros got up simultaneously and turned to the door. Phoenix walked to the door and they exited single file. As Sasha got to the door, Phoenix said, "Tiger, stay behind for a minute. I'd like to have a word with you."

Shit, she thought, Am I discovered?

Stepping aside with him remembering how her counterpart spoke in her assessment of her, she asks "Yeah?"

"I was watching you tonight evaluate Heckle. What do you think of him?"

"We'll have to wait and see. He seems a bit too... out there. You never know. He could be more capable than what he appears to be. But it'll be an interesting test of Team Argos' abilities."

"Agreed," Phoenix said.

"Am I dismissed then?" Sasha asked

Nodding, Sasha turned to leave.

Phoenix thought, Just as I thought. They found some mole to replace the original.

Robin & Kiva

Sitting next to the comatose Robin, Kiva held his paw and talked to him about anything and everything that came to his mind. When he got too tired of talking, he just sat there in silence. Eventually, half sitting, half leaning against the bed he drifted into an uneasy sleep and dreamt.

A beautiful female antrho fox with long, flowing hair called out to him longingly, entreatingly "Robin... Robin... We need you here in the land where you belong. Come back to us. Come back to the realm of the fairies. Come back to Otherworld"

Kiva was startled awake by a doctor reaching over the bed and pushing a button on one of the machines that was monitoring Robin. Through bleary eyes he asked, "still no change?"

The doctor, an anthro gecko said "No, and we don't know what's causing his condition either, save for a case of exhaustion, but it doesn't account for his other symptoms."

Kiva nodded, saying "Thank you doctor." Slumping over, he entered the dream again. "What do you mean?" Robin asked. "I know nothing of this Otherworld that you speak of. Where is it?"

"The spider shall be open the gate, you will be the key, the tiger shall guard you, and I shall be your guide."

A moment later he was startled awake by an anthro eagle nurse who was checking Robin's vitals.

Tom

After Tom got transported to his lab, he thought Stupid, stupid, stupid! How stupid can I be? If I keep pushing him, he'll say no and that'll be that. I've never felt for anyone what I feel for him. Of course he DID save my life.

Taking off his costume, he walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower, and got in. Letting the water run over him, he closed his eyes and replayed the scenes in his mind. He loved the way the bear's fat uncut cock looked. And it was obvious that from his 'before' and 'after' as his body grew proportionally from damage that he took and put towards his size increase. As Tom fantasized about Art, his large cock started coming out of its sheath. He stroked it, letting more and more of his dick come out. As he stroked, he imagined the bear sucking on it. Jacking off, with long slow strokes, he enjoyed the sensation of the water falling on him. Letting the feeling build to the almost to the point of cumming, he stopped. Doing this time and time again, he spent a good ten minutes teasing himself to the brink, but not letting himself cum just yet. When he was reading, using his vibrational powers on his balls, he sprayed the walls of the shower, howling. Finishing his shower, cleaning himself up, he went to bed where he dreamed of Art.

In the Warehouse

Phoenix said "Oh... by the way. Did you think I wouldn't see through your flimsy excuse of a disguise?"

Sasha turned and with as much bravado as she could muster, said "I don't know what you're talking about."

As Phoenix reached over to her, she dodged his talon, and took a defensive stance, demanding "What's the meaning of this?"

Lazily drawing a glowing sigil in the air with his talon, Phoenix said, "You didn't think I wouldn't notice the dampening of my powers, did you?" As he finished drawing the sigil, it and it flew at Sasha.

Her eyes grew large as she saw it come at her, and she barely dodged most of it in time, but it still brushed her. As it did, the sigil exploded, throwing her back, on top of the table. She tried getting up, but collapsed instead, coughing up blood, she asked "Why? How did you do that?"

"Come now, do you really think that the Powers that I have are my only defense? I learned a long time ago through personal experience that magic is unaffected by Power nullifiers such as yourself. Now get up." Phoenix said, drawing another sigil, "I want you to at least provide a challenge."

Oh, shit. I'm in trouble now, Sasha thought

Robin & Kiva

Opening his eyes Kiva asked the nurse "No change?"

Shaking her head sadly, she said "No, not yet." Noticing that Kiva looked depressed, smiling, she said "Don't give up hope. Hang in there. Things may yet change."

"Thank you for your encouragement." Kiva said.

Closing his eyes he thought, Matt, are you there

A moment later a response came back, Yeah, what do you need?

Kiva proceeded to tell Matt the dream that he experienced.

Matt thought back Try to reenter the dream world and ask them how to get there.

Will do

Art

Pulling up a stool Art stroked his cock until it got hard again. Pushing the foreskin back, he bent over his and put his dick in his mouth circling his cockhead with his tongue, picturing that it was Tom sucking him off. He was so horny, he didn't even last a minute before spraying cum all over his face and in his mouth. Swallowing the tasty cum, he got up and took a shower before going to bed, where he dreamt of Tom.

In the Warehouse

Rolling off the table, simultaneously knocking some chairs down, Sasha shakily got to her feet. Using the table's distance as a shield between her and Phoenix, she wobbly resumed her defensive stance, she tore off the mask and spat "And did you think that my nullification is the only defense I have?" Finishing the sigil Phoenix said "Not at all." The rune went flying towards her, but she dodged, knowing that her nullification powers wouldn't stop it. Starting another one, he calmly continued, gloating, "But I certainly have you at a considerable disadvantage." As he spoke, he kept sending sigil after sigil towards her "I have you at a distance that you can't close without risking getting yourself badly hurt or killed. Also, you don't likely know magic or what these symbols mean. They could inflict pain, grant pleasure, charm you or cause you to sleep. Further, you're probably weakening as I speak. How does it feel to know you're not going to get out of here alive?"

As he started drawing the next sigil, Sasha tumbled, grabbed one of the chairs and threw it at him with all her might, shouting, "Fat chance, motherfucker!" Phoenix saw the chair flying at him, stopped drawing the rune and split the chair with his talon, it falling harmlessly on either side of him. While he was splitting the chair midair, Sasha shoved the heavy table into him, knocking him down.

Robin & Kiva

Reentering the dream, Kiva, now finding himself next to Robin in the dream standing in front of fox. Kiva asked "Who are you? Why are you asking us to go to Otherworld?"

The beautiful anthro fox hesitated, turning to Robin, "I... I don't know how you'll take what it is that I have to tell you, but... I am your mother."

"How can this be?" Robin asked "My mother's still alive."

"No. You were found when you were young, and another family raised you. We didn't know one of the other fairies had taken you to the moral realm."

"This is not the first time you had done this. You are born, grow up, fall in love, grow old, and eventually, die - to do it over again. This cycle has been going on forever. This time, instead of growing up here, someone felt threatened by your presence and dumped you there."

Kiva asked, "Why are you telling Robin about this only now? Why didn't you come for him earlier?"

"Most fairies didn't know about you being reborn - not even Oberon himself. I just came from a meeting where Merlin showed you exhibiting your power. I knew in my heart of hearts it was you. Once I did, I contacted you." Steps are heard in the background. "My time grows short. I will contact you again as I am able. Farewell!"

The next thing he knew, Kiva was awake with more questions than answers - questions that he was determined to get answers for before doing anything.

Tom & Art

Sharing the same dream they see each other in a hazy, featureless field. Seeing one another, they say simultaneously "I'm sorry." They both get flustered and say "You first."

Tom started, "I shouldn't have been so pushy. I should have known that you wouldn't want to hop into bed with me at the first opportunity, as you hadn't made a move on me while I was recovering."

Art said "I shouldn't have been so sensitive. But be that as it may, my point remains. We need to get to know each other first - our likes and dislikes, our dreams and wishes, and if we can do this."

"Wait..." Tom said, with sudden realization "This is a dream. How are we doing this? Matt, is this your doing?"

A moment later Matt appears with them and said, "No, I didn't. It could be a side effect of the chemical that gave you both your powers." Looking up he continues, "But I have to go; there's a situation here that I need to take care of, but it's nothing that I can't handle by myself." Smiling, he bid them farewell, saying, "Have fun lovebirds."

Tom said "Since this is a dream," gesturing into the featureless fog, which solidified into a café "why don't we sit down and talk to get to know each other better." So, for the next several hours did.

In the Warehouse

Sasha, seeing her chance to escape bolted for the door. Unfortunately, Phoenix was a lot stronger than he looked. Even though he was momentarily dazed from being rammed by the table, by the time she got to the door he was on his feet again and threw the table into the doorway, blocking it.

"Check and Mate. Game over." Phoenix said drawing several sigils in the air. "It was a valiant effort, I do say myself. But it was too little too late. You should have ran while you had the chance. You may have been able to escape." Activating them, they all went towards her, surrounding her. But no matter where she went they followed her. As she moved, their orbits became closer to her.

Grabbing another chair and tossing it at Phoenix. Holding his talon up, as the chair came towards him, Sasha's eyes widened as the chair didn't even reach him before splitting in half and falling on either side of him, as if it had been cut neatly in half by a sword. As she stood there momentarily dumbfounded, the sigils attached themselves to her limbs, making it more difficult for her to move. She thought, Oh, shit, I'm done for, when suddenly she heard a male voice in her head which said, Put on the Power collar. Thinking back to the voice which should not be in her head, she asked back to it Where? Before the word was finished the voice responded, To your left. Quickly! Spotting the collar that hadn't been there a split moment before she put it on. As it snapped around her neck, she vanished.

Looking amused, Phoenix said to the empty air, "And so the game starts."
