The Gate.

By: The Sleeping Fox

“All personnel quarters in lockdown, Gate13 program in progressive stage.”

With that last warning from the robotic conductor of messages the entire research building became a ghost town. Except for one room.

A single laboratory, the size of a cathedral filled with forty-three scientists, researchers, technicians, a single civilian, row after row of computers, and a large arch way that looked to be a mixture of roman architecture and new age technology. The researchers all worked busily on their computers, as the scientist, and technician worked out the final mishaps in the massive machine the beheld in front of them. Except for one technician who paid special attention to a large egg like vessel in front of the machine.

“I hope this works,” the final technician said with a sigh he stepped away from the vessel and got into a safe distance.
“Gate 13 start up phase engaged,” the older snowy owl in a lab coat yelled out with other scientists quick to repeat him as a sign of acknowledgement.

The room fell silent as a faint light formed around the massive metallic archway.

“Engage second phase.”

Seconds after the owl yelled this the sections of the inner rim of the archway started to shift sending the emblems engraved into them in many directions.

“Engage final step,” the owl said with a look of great anticipation on his face.

Finally the emblems stopped moving and were set into position. With this final
action the Archway’s faint glow turned into a bright flaring aura. After the temporary blindness caused by the sudden brightness subsided a faint shadow of what seemed to be older fur walked through the light and was pulled into the vessel set forth in front of it.

For a moment time stood still…

“Did it work?”





It was raining. I remember that because it was raining so hard our car had stalled on the side of the road. I tried to fix it…but I was getting nowhere, so I decided to go back to the car…with you.

“Z’ev you goof,” a beautiful pure white teenaged husky exclaimed, “I told you it was no use trying top fix the car.”

That’s Mika my girlfriend. I constantly ask how such beauty could be rolled up into one girl, but then again I constantly ask how she could be with me.

“I know…but you know how thick headed I am,” I laughed. “I just wanted to get you home safely…me being the big heroic type and all.”
“Well Mister hero, I guess we’ll have to stay her tonight.”

She gave me one of those looks she always gave me. It was so sexy but at the same time, so clever. It drove me wild.

“What ever will he do?” she mocked as she let down her long hair.
“I have no idea,” I played along as I went in for a kiss.

It’s funny how contrasted two people can be, but at the same time they can get along so well. Look at Mika and me for instance. I’m white wolf I have a black spot over my eye and a small one on my butt, I’m often shy, I love horror, and I’m not very adventurous. Mika on the other is courageous, confident, likes comedy, and loves to walk on the wild side…why is she with me again?

As we were locked in an almost maddening passionate kiss I caught myself thinking what this would lead to but it didn’t take long for me to find out.

“Let’s get you out of those wet clothes Z’ev, and into something…more comfortable?

She started to slowly take off my shirt, but stopped as a bright light appeared through the darkness of the stormy night. We both thought it would pass but then there was a loud screeching of tires on the wet pavement followed by the almost thunderous sound of eighteen-wheeler’s horn.

The headlights of the monstrous truck blinded us for a few seconds but as our vision cleared Mika noticed something was wrong.

“Why is there so much water in the car? She sounded panicked. “Oh my god…Z’ev!”

I looked over at Mika as blood poured from my mouth. In the ensuing chaos several long pipes had shot through the windshield and into my chest, shoulder and lower abdomen.

“I…l-love you.” I smiled faintly as I smashed open the sunroof and undid her seatbelt.
“No I won’t leave you!” she cried “I Love You!
“G-go Mika…and live.”

I died that night…I wish I could tell you what had happened to Mika…I never left this world…I haven’t seen that light yet…until today.

I only hope it leads somewhere good.




“Transfer complete.”
“Malfunction Vessel instability has caused error in formation.”

“Damn it!” the owl yelled. “Another failure.”
“What are you talking about?” a younger female hedgehog in technician’s apparel exclaimed. “We’ve never successfully transferred anything through the gate, malfunctions and all.

The head scientist scowled at her and turned to a group of other technician.

“Shut down the project and retrieve the vessel,” the owl told them angrily, “give the vessel to the civilians, by contract it is theirs to keep.”

The female technician put the egg like vessel onto a trolley, and took it over to a white female wolf. She then led her out of the room.

“Thank you,” she told the technician as they left the room and the lights went out behind them.




I woke up in a daze; everything around me was so bright I couldn’t see a thing. I caught myself asking if I was in heaven now…no such luck. My vision cleared and I realised I was in a hospital room.

“So much for the white light theory” I thought out loud.
“Z’ev?”

It was that soft, almost angelic voice. It ran over me like honey. It was so smooth and sweet; I knew it was her…it had to be.

“Mika!” I cried out.
That’s when it struck me. My voice. It had changed…it was the same yet so different…younger in fact, and more high pitched.

Then she entered through the doorway, and I forgot about my voice, the world…everything. She walked up to me in the sexy way she always did. She was more beautiful than ever, she was more defined, and somehow…older?

“What’s going on?” I asked. “What happened to me, I thought I died.
“Y-you did Z’ev,” she explained looking as if it was painful to look at me. “W-we brought you back.

She broke into tears. Whatever she did it couldn’t so horrible. Was I disfigured? I knew I couldn’t have been paralysed, I could still move, so…what could it be?

“I want to see a mirror,” I said sternly in my high-pitched voice.
“But…Z’ev…it’s a little to early for that.”
“NOW!”

Mika was stalling, but we both knew she would have to give me the mirror sooner or later. The weird thing was when she gave me the mirror she looked ashamed.

“I’m sorry,” she muttered.

When I looked in the mirror I saw nothing wrong at first. My face wasn’t disfigured, nothing was missing, I still had the spot over my eye, I had my baby teeth; I had my…baby teeth!

“What the hell!”
“I’m Sorry, I’m Sorry, I’m Sorry, I’m Sorry,” Mika repeated.

I couldn’t believe it, it was me…but I was younger.

“Holy crap I’m a toddler,” I exclaimed.
“Well…actually your six” Mika said trying to lighten the mood.
“What difference does it make?”

What the hell was I doing? I shouldn’t have been yelling at her…I loved Mika.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have yelled,” I explained, “but how the hell are we supposed to have a relationship now?”
“Well, you’re going to laugh, but I kinda’ sorta’ adopted you.”

At this point I sat back. Closed my eyes and sighed with frustration and exhaustion letting my body relax. I only opened them when Mika asked me if I was okay. I looked down to see a wet spot forming on my blankets. I threw them back with a look of disgust and intrigue to see me pissing all over myself.

We would later find out through a series of tests that I was incontinent due to damage to my bladder and bowel tissue…as if it wasn’t embarrassing enough to be in this body I would have to learn to control my “movements” from now on…

Fuck…

Wow. Very interesting. Great start, hope to see more soon.

I like this. It's a good story and sorta reminds me a lil of my FullMetal Alchemist story. But yours is taking a difrent story track and used a diffrent means to bring somebody back. I like this story and look forward to reading more.

The short awaited Second Chapter...

An Old Friend…

(Sequel to the Gate.)

By: The Sleeping Fox

Ironic isn’t it? I left this world when it was raining…and it hasn’t stopped since I was brought back…or maybe just maybe, it wasn’t the rain…but Mika’s tears that haven’t stopped…

Needless to say as we left the hospital it was raining. It’s funny I didn’t want to go out in the rain something inside me told me I shouldn’t. So Mika took me by the hand and practically dragged me to the car. She’s always been forceful when I didn’t want to do something.

At least she was the same.

“Where are we going?” I asked as I went to open the front door.
“If were going anywhere you’re sitting in the back.”
“What?”
“Yes sir,” she said as she opened the back door and pointed towards a child’s car seat. “You may be older in mind, but you body isn’t.”
“I’m not sitting in that,” I protested not caring about the rain anymore.
“Oh really?” She smirked.

That’s when she picked me up. Oh right…she’s much stronger than me now. She forced me into the car with such gentle but strong hands. She finally buckled me into the infernal car seat and I sat there with my arms crossed, pouting like a child.

“Don’t look so pathetic,” she laughed as she started up the car, “besides if you look like that when we get home everyone will get the wrong Idea about you.”
“E-everyone?” I said a little worried.

That’s when I got those strange thoughts in my head.

What is no one likes me? What if they’re really mean? What if they’re…

“What the hell was that?” I thought to myself. “Why am I thinking like a child?”

As we drove further and further away from the hospital Mika and me didn’t talk much. She seemed so concentrated on the road and I was so deep in thought that we didn’t even notice the time fly by, and somewhere between the hospital and “home” I drifted off into sleep.


When I woke up I was in Mika’s arms. She was carrying me towards an apartment building side entrance.

“Where…are we?” I asked groggily.
“This is our home Z’ev,” she replied, “but there is one thing I must insist upon.”
“What’s that?”
“You can’t tell my children about our past, and especially about how you came back.”
“Oh…okay…” I said still half asleep, “CHILDREN”
“Well you have been gone a long time and-
“You’re Married!”
“N-no…not anymore…” she said with a hint of sadness in her voice, “but we’ll talk about this later.”

I knew somehow we never really would get to talk about this. She always could avoid talking about things that bothered her…oh well. After the long route to the top floor Mika fumbled with her keys for a while but once we got inside the apartment she set me down. As she took my coat I looked around at the apartment.

It was a massive loft apartment with a large set of windows overseeing the entire city. The living room furniture in the apartment was all made of white microfiber and the tables were made of black cast iron with glass tops. As I continued into the apartment I looked to the left to see a large open kitchen attached to the living room, and a bathroom door. To the right of me were two sets of door on the far wall, a set of stairs leading up into the loft bedroom, and a scary looking Goth teen wolf.

He was dressed as black as night, but unlike other Goths he didn’t look half dead, but he was covered with a sense of confusion. He wore a black band tee and baggy cargo pants to match. He was wearing a spiked collar, he had chains on his wrists, belt, pants, his left eat was pierced five times, two studs, three rings, and his left eyebrow was pierced twice.

“Who’s this mom?” he asked in a monotone voice
“Well Mingan, this is your new brother,”
“What?” he said in an unimpressed tone.
“Well, you know how my company takes interest in a special case every six months.”
“Yeah…”
“Well I decided to take in a case personally,” she lied.
“I’m not going to have to touch it…right?”

I scowled as he said this.

“Well anyways mom I’m going to Fens house I’ll be back later.”

A soon as he finished saying this he was quick to get out the door with out saying a word…ungrateful jerk.

“So…” I said in an explain this tone, “you have a company?”
“Well yes I do,” she explained, “ We make supplies for older cubs who need special supplies.”
“…What kind of supplies…”
“Diapers among other things,”
“Diapers?”
“Well I’ve always loved kids you know that and I wanted to offer them something they can’t get usually,” she said, “besides it might come in convenient in you current state.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” I asked rhetorically.
“Well…you do have to re learn how to control those…movement and I thought that we might try-
“I am not wearing diapers!” I said sternly in my prepubescent voice, “I told you I would learn how to control myself but I’m not wearing diapers.”
“Come on Z’ev.”
“NO!”
“Stop being such a child,” she argued, “besides you’ll have to wear them anyway, like it or not.”
“What?” I replied defensively.
“You may have been 19 at one point but now your six, and by law you’re my son, and you will listen.”

What the hell was she saying, how could she take to the mothering roll so quickly even thought I had only started to understand my transition? This woman I once knew was now different somehow…I guess age will do that to you…

I glared up at her as venomously as I could, but she just laughed at my childish contempt.

“Come with me I have two more furs to introduce you to.”

She started to walk towards the set of doors on the far wall, and I think I realised that Mika was no longer the woman I loved…what happened?

I continued to follow her, as she walked to the door closest to the stairs leading up to the loft and knocked on it. A young female voice answered.

“Come in,”

As we entered I hid behind Mika’s legs and I wondered to myself why I was hiding. I saw in was another white wolf lying on a bed reading a book. She was the spitting image of Mika but somehow she was different. She was wearing a pale blue sundress, with a choker and both her ears were pierced but just once and with jewelled studs.

“Hey mom…” she greeted her with a curious smile as she caught sight of me, “who’s this?”
“I’ll let him introduce himself.”
“…Z-Z’ev…”
“He’s your new brother Cali.”
“Really?” She said excited. “Do I get to take care of him?”

Mika laughed.

“Your brother said the complete opposite,” she smirked, “you two really are the worst twin ever.”
“Come on mom, we’re not that different,” she joked as she got off the bed and walked over to Mika and me.
“I just wanted to introduce you to him in case I get called into work.” She told her, “Also…do you know where Dakota is?

Once she said that name a large non-anthro black husky dog appeared from behind the girls couch and darted towards me, tackling me to the ground as it snarled and began to growl. My eye’s widened in fear. In my current state this dog was massive. Its weight was immense on my small body. As soon as I saw it baring its fangs it happened. I felt that familiar warmth forming in my lower regions and it was spreading fast.

“No!” Mika yelled, “Bad Dakota!”

As soon as Mika’s voice changed the dog’s tail sunk in between it’s legs and it backed of whimpering.

Mika then stood me up and realised the huge wet spot on the front of my pants and the small puddle on the floor.

“Oh…Z’ev,” she said in an irritated voice, “that was the only pair of pants we have for you.

That’s when I burst in tear. I don’t really know why I did it…maybe it was the fact that I had pissed myself again, maybe it was that I did it in front of a person I just met…or maybe it had something to do with this body I was in…

“I d-didn’t..mean…too,” I sobbed.
“I know…lets see if we have any of my product around.”
“N-no!” I yelled in dismay, “I won’t do it again…don’t make me wear them…”

It’s really quite sad…a man…acting like a distraught child…a meeting with an old friend…childhood…

…What the hell happened to me?

Wow. Once again good stuff. Your doing great on this story.

The Product.

(Sequel to the an old Friend.)

By: The Sleeping Fox

Needless to say she found the product…among other things that I really would have preferred she hadn’t found…

“Please don’t make me…” I pleaded fruitlessly.
“It’s too late for that,” Mika told me as she stood me in the middle of the living room floor in front of Cali, “unless you miraculously heal you incontinence and can keep this diaper dry for an entire day…your not to go anywhere without them.”

I gave a look of blatant repose when she opened the box she had filled and pulled out a large diaper. It was an extremely thick and durable diaper, and it had cartoon animals posted all over the front. I pulled back as she reached out to undue my pants and I nudged my head in the direction of Cali to point out I didn’t want her in the room during this moment in case she saw my private areas exposed.

“Oh get real Z’ev,” She answered my silent plea.

I tried to turn away from Mika but she grabbed me, laid me on the ground and proceeded to peel away my urine soaked lower apparel. I turned a bright red with embarrassment when Mika started to pull off my underwear. I tried to close my legs but she held them open and gave me a glare.

“Stop squirming,” she ordered which was followed closely by a sigh of frustration, “Cali…can you help with this?”
“Nooooo!” I cried, “I don’t want her to see me.”
“Well you should have thought of that before you started squirming.”

Cali happily hopped off the couch and held my leg open as her mother got out a bottle of cream, some powder and baby wipes. Tears frustration ran down my face as Mika applied the products over the essential areas. I couldn’t believe this was happening to me…having these things forced upon me…and by the woman who once said she loved me…

“It can’t be that bad Z’ev,” Cali tried to comfort me by making funny face, “It’s not the end of the world.”

I tried to hold back a smile and when she stopped making faces I realised that Mika had already double tapped the diaper and Cali had released my legs. Mika set me on the couch beside Cali in only a diaper. I sulked as I feebly tried to hide it with a pillow.
“I don’t want to wear these,” I repeated as I shot Mika another dirty look.
“Tough luck buddy,” Mika replied in a sarcastic tone as she walked towards the stairs and entered the second level of the apartment.

I sunk down on the couch with my arms crossed still pouting. As I was contemplating how to get out of this Cali nudged me.

“Look what’s on the television Z’ev,” she pointed out to me, “is that Wonder Cub?
“I’d rather be watching,” but something about the show caught my attention “…well actually…this is quite…”

But I stopped talking all together as if something had hypnotized me. There was something about that show that was “mesmerizing.” Then again…every other six year old would be…I guess easily being manipulated by bright flashy children’s shows was another perk of being in a younger body.

As the show went on I got that stupid little smile of amusement that every child gets when they’re watching their favourite television show. I even caught myself boasting and cheering for the little animated furs…how much more pathetic can I get.

Finally the show’s credits ran and I got that disappointed look on my face until the Narrator said in that nostalgic male tone.

“Tune in tomorrow for another exciting episode of…Wonder Cub!”

I was giggling and clapping at this point but I stopped myself before I squealed. I heard Cali laughing softly at my behaviour so I turned towards her.

“Stop laughing at me…” I whimpered.
“Oh Z’ev I’m not laughing at you.”
“Yes you are!” I said as I hopped off the couch and sat down behind and started to pout again.

Why am I so emotional…there has to be some reason I’m acting so irrationally…why can’t I control these actions?

As I contemplated these thoughts there was a noise at the door as it opened. It was that Goth boy…and he had brought friends. I blushed crimson this time as I realised that all these people would see me in a diaper so I jumped up on the couch, covered myself with the pillow and buried my face in the cushions.

“Hey Mom!” Mingan called out, “Fen and me couldn’t stay at his house so I hope you don’t mind I brought over a couple friends!”
Mika came rushing down the stairs at the sound of this announcement and gave Mingan a disapproving look as she walked towards him.

“You know that we just brought Z’ev here,” she reminded him, “and it’s hard enough to transition without you bring over your entourage…”
“Oh come on mom,” Mingan scoffed, “it’s not like were going to hurt him.”

As Mika thought about this her beeper went off. It was work calling her in.

“Fine,” she agreed, “…but would you stick to your room…”
“Alright,” he said signalling his friends to follow him, “We can do that.”

As Mingan and his friends disappeared into his room I poked my head over the couch to see if the coast was clear. When I was sure it was I hopped off the couch and ran up to Mika.

“Can I please get some clothes?” I pleaded.
“Just what I was thinking,” Mika replied, “There’s some clothes in the box I put together.”

I cringed at the thought of what clothing she possibly could have put in the ominous box of my lament.

“Cali you can decide what he wears, I have to go to work.”

I focused on Mika as she left the apartment. She put on that coat. The coat she was wearing the night I died. The same coat I gave her for her birthday…it’s funny how some people just don’t let go…

“Z’ev…Z’eeeeevvvvvv…Z’EV!”
“W-wha?” I startled and turned to look at Cali.
“You were staring pretty intensely at mom…” she informed me, “but that’s beside the point we need to get you dressed.

I sighed as she grabbed my hand and took me into her room and she sat me on the bed. I watched as she rummaged through the box taking things out everything as she sorted through them.

Three Blue Pacifiers… five bottles with wolf pup cartoons drawn on them…a bib…two Footed pyjamas one baby blue, the other pale yellow, four onesies each of which were different shades of light blue, five pairs of shortalls, two khaki three were jean, and one pair of overalls. Each pair of clothes came with characters on them, either ducks, rabbits, foxes, or wolves…and there was lots of diapers…

“Ummm…do they have any other clothes in there?”
“Nope this is it.”
“Are you sure?” I said in a hopeful but nervous manner.

She just smiled as she picked up a pale blue onesie with a wolf pup playing with a red ball on the chest.

“I think this will do just fine, seeing how hot it is today,” she said as if she were talking to herself, “What do you think?”

“I guess so…”
“Oh and don’t worry if we go out somewhere I’ll put some shortalls on you.”

Oh great…another thing that wont cover up my diapers…

She slipped the onesie over my head and buttoned up the crotch. Cali smiled and patted me on the butt.

“You are too cute,” she squealed as she began to put everything back in the box.

I turned away from her and walked out of the room.

That’s when I saw it, out of the corner of my eye. It was a man pale and glowing white he was to blurred to really make out what he looked like but he seemed almost…angry.


I stalled in place and started to tremble.

Cali came out of her room after putting everything back into the box neatly and found me.

“Z’ev…are you okay?” she asked as she picked me up. “You’re shaking…”
“…”

I rested my head on her chest and closed my eyes. For some reason that apparition had scared me. She tried to comfort me as she sat on the couch and put me on her lap. Once she put me on her lap the television suddenly turned on.

It was the news channel.

“And in other news, a local man, Michael Forrester disappeared last night after what seems to be a ritual homicide.”

Cali tried to turn off the television but the remote wasn’t working.

“Police informants say that the man apartment was ransacked and ritualistic symbols were drawn on blood on the walls and floor. No body has been found so the man’s family has released this photo of him.”

My eyes shot open when I heard this and I stared at the television. It was him. He was smiling in the picture but I now it was him. It was the apparition in the apartment.

“You don’t need to hear this Z’ev,” she said as she took me off her lap and put me on the couch.

She walked over to the television and unplugged it, but still it wouldn’t turn off.

“What the?” Cali said with shock in her voice.

“If you have any information on the missing man police implore you to call into the station.”

They flashed a number on the TV on how to contact the station directly. That’s when a voice sounded in my head.

“Corner of Thirteenth Avenue and Seventh Street. Back alley. The Hole.”

“Nine eight nine…one seven zero zero…” I tried to memorize the number in my head.

That’s when the television shut off.

I knew I had to do something, even if it was just a hunch I had to call that number. But I knew that no one in the house would let a six year old call the police station because he had a feeling. I had to plan this carefully.

“Cali,” I tried to pull off a fake yawn, “I’m tired.”
“Oh are you?”
“Yeah,” I pretended to nod off.
“Alright then,” she said, “you just lie down on the couch and try to get some sleep.”

As I lied down I watched her with one eye hoping she would leave the room. After she got me a blanket she patted my head fur and went into her room and shut the door. After a while I heard music coming from her direction so I decided it would be safe to try something.

I threw back my blanket and walked got off the couch. I tried to walk as softly as I could as I headed towards the phone. I finally picked up the phone, Good thing it was a portable, and I walked back to the couch.

“Here goes nothing I said to myself as I started dialling the number.

The phone rang.

Click.

“Hello police services hotline how may I help you?”
“Umm, hi,” I said trying to make my voice as deep as possible. “ I have information on the Michael Forrester.”
“Yes sir,” I now had her full attention.
“Corner of Thirteenth Avenue and Seventh Street, in the back alley, at the Hole,” I repeated, “There’s something there.”
“And can I get your name sir?”
“Is there someone on the line?” I heard Cali’s voice cut in on the phone.
“Uhhh…”

Click.

That was close…and it wasn’t like I was going to leave my name anyways. Like I said, no one’s going to believe a six year old knows where the body of a dead man is…

My biggest worry now is what Cali is going to do if she knows it was me on the phone…

This is going to be a long day…

Yay My newest chapter is finished, and the plot is getting thicker...

Playing Cute

By: The Sleeping Fox

I ran for it, right back onto the couch and I pulled the blanket over me and pretended to be asleep right when Cali opened the door with a furious look on her face.

“Were you just on the phone?” she said as she walked over to me.

I stayed quiet in hopes she would just leave.

No such luck…

She started shaking and poking me. I gave her a seemingly real groan of sleepy annoyance, as she wouldn’t stop her prodding.

“No…I’m still sleepy” I faked as I opened my eyes slightly to look at her.
“Answer me!” she raised her voice, “were you on the phone?”
“I was sleeping…” I said as I rolled over to face away from her, but she stopped me by putting her hand on my chest.
“So you were sleep dialling?” she said sarcastically.
“I don’t know…”
“Alright mister, that was the police hotline on the phone and I know that Mingan doesn’t have a phone in his room so spill it.”
“…Yeah I…”
“Yes you what?” she said impatiently, “and you better tell the truth or you’ll be in trouble.”
“I called them.”

Cali then got me to sit up as she stared discontent at me.

“Why?”
“I…I had a feeling…”
“A feeling?” she asked with a hint of curiosity in her voice.
“About that Michael Forrester guy…” I continued, “I had a feeling where he was.”
“Oh Z’ev, you can’t just call the police because you had a feeling, you know that your wasting people’s time and money and you calling the police line may keep the police from real emergencies.”
“But…”
“No buts about it,” She said as she picked me up off the couch and walked into her room,” you’re sleeping in my room this time, and mom’s going to find out what you did.”
“But.”
Cali gave me a “don’t push it glare” as she set me down and pulled back the covers on her bed. I went to climb into her bed but she stopped me.

“Before you climb into my bed,” she emphasised, “I’m checking your diaper.”
“But I didn’t-
“I’m not taking the chance.”

She pulled me close and stuck one finger in the front of my diaper to check if I wet, and then patted my butt to check if I messed. As she did this I notice Dakota on the other side of the room with his head cocked.

“So you didn’t do what?” she said, “Lay down.”
“But I didn’t do anything.”
“You wet…and really heavily, and if you plan on getting in that bed you’re getting a change because I don’t want you leaking everywhere.”

She pulled diaper change supplies from the box.

“Good thing I left this in here,” she said to herself, “now lay down.”

I reluctantly lied down on the floor and she undid the crotch on my onesie. I gave her a look of displeasure as she opened up my diaper.

“Why are you so wierded out when people change your diaper?” She asked as she removed my diaper and proceeded to apply cream and powder to my private areas. “ I thought you would be used to it by now.”
“I wasn’t always like this…until the accident.”

My eyes went wide as I quickly slapped my hands over my mouth. I wasn’t supposed to say anything about that.

“You were in an accident?”

But I stayed quiet.

“I guess you don’t want to talk about it,” she said as she put a diaper under my butt, threaded my tail through the hole, and taped it up, “Alright then, you are officially ready to sleep in my bed.”

She set me in her bed and tucked me in.

“What if I can’t get to sleep?”
“I can fix that.”

She grabbed a small object from the box and stuck it in my mouth. A pacifier. I spit it out and shot Cali a look.

“I’m not a baby,” I said angrily.
“I know but it will help you sleep.”

She stuck it back in my mouth and instinctively I started to suck on it. Cali then picked up a small-decorated box off her nightstand. She started to wind it up at the back and soft comforting music started to play.

“You try to sleep,” She smiled as she tucked me in.
“ How’s this going…to help…me…sleep…?”

The music and the pacifier caused some sort of euphoria of sleep to come over me making me very tired all of a sudden. Cali smiled at this sight. She thought it was cute how grown up this little cub was trying to be.

“You sleep tight…little brother.”





It felt like I was floating but I opened my eyes and realised I was in that room, the laboratory one I dreamt of earlier. I was standing in front of that huge gate and it was glowing brightly. I looked around the room. It was empty except for one small Cabbit boy cowering in a corner.

“Are you okay?” I asked but my attention was drawn back to the Gate.

There was a large blob like figure emerging from it.

“You do not belong…” it said in a booming ominous voice.

I fell back by the sheer power of its word.

“You must come with me…”
“No!”

I shielded my self my arms as it approached me and reached out. It grabbed me by the arm and started to drag me towards the gate.

“Let go of me!”

The closer we got to the Gate the smaller and more demonesque the figure became. I tried to struggle and it laughed. Even it’s voice had changed into a high pitched cackle.
“STOP!” I screamed and the gate disappeared.
The demon let go of me and looked confused. It turned to me with an irritated look on its face.

“Ooooohhhh, so you want to play like that?”

He grinned malevolently as he shape shifted his hands into grotesque claws. He stood over me and grabbed me by the wrist as he started to cut my palm open, smiling the whole time.

“I’m going to have fun playing with you.”

He lifted up his hand and slashed at me.


I woke up screaming and crying in a panicked state. I realised someone was holding me down so I started clawing out at them and they finally let go. I came too, right after I hit them in the face.

“Damn it his claws are sharp,” I heard Mingan’s voice.

I opened my tear filled eyes and saw Mika, Cali, and Mingan who was now holding his cheek and giving me a dirty look. Mika rushed over to me and held me.

“Are you okay?” she asked, “It sounds like you had a pretty bad dream

I started to cry loudly as she held me, mostly because of the dream but partially because of the embarrassment of having lashed out.

“Awww honey it’s okay,” she told me as she rubbed my back.

Has she forgotten…or does she really think I’m her child now…is it all an act because she asked me to play cute around her kids…I’m not sure but either way…I guess I kind of like it….



It took Mika a while to get me to calm down enough so I could talk, I told her I told her through my sobs and sniffles about the bad man, and the little cabbit boy. We talked for a while about why I might be having those dreams until Mingan pointed out that my palm was bleeding.

“Wh-what!” I said in disbelief as I examined my hand.

It really was cut open. Did I do it…or was it the bad man in my dream…

I started to worry about it again and my lower lip started to tremble. I started breathing heavily again.

“Don’t start crying honey,” Mika said, “It’s okay, we can take care of that.”
“You can be such a jerk sometimes,” Cali whispered to Mingan as she elbowed him in the ribs, “he’s already freaked out enough.”

After making sure I was really okay, Mika brought me into the bathroom and took out the first aid kit. She opened it up and pulled out some disinfectant. At the sight of it I pulled back my hand.

“Come on Z’ev, I need to put this on you cut.”
“But…It will hurt,” I whined.
“Be a big boy and give me you hand,” she patronised me.

I held out my injured hand and closed my eyes tightly. I waited a while but I felt nothing.

“Okay, you can start,” I said as I opened my eyes.
“I’m already finished,” Mika Chuckled.

I looked down to see my hand was already bandaged, and really well at that. I wrapped my arms around Mika in a hug as if to say in some childish way, “thank you.”

“Come on,” Mika smiled, “you still need to sleep.”
“But …”

I stared down at that ground with an embarrassed look on my face.

“Can…someone sleep…with me tonight?”
“I'm sure we can arrange that,” Mika said.
“I’ll do it,”

I smiled when I saw Cali was standing at the bathroom door and she was already in her pyjamas.

“Okay Cali,” Mika agreed.
“Goodnight Mom,” Cali said.
“Goodnight mo- I mean Mika,” I followed.
“Goodnight you two.”

Cali took me by my uninjured hand and led me back to her room. She got me set up in her bed again and gave me the pacifier, this time I took with a little less reluctance. She wound up the music box again and let it play as she got into the bed with me. I realised that Dakota was still lying in the same spot.

“…Cali?”
“Yes little brother?”
“Thank you.”
“Any time.”

As I drifted off into sleep I thought about the day. Specifically I thought about the phone call. Had She forgotten about it in the resulting situation? Did she tell Mika? Why is she being so nice?

What about tomorrow?

Wow. Really great stuff pretty darned suspenseful. Your good. Keep it up.

Yay the fifth chapter's finally here!



I probably wouldn’t have woken up for another hour or so if Mika hadn’t come and got me. It was her picking me up out of the bed that disturbed my sleep.

“Come on Z’ev you need to get up,”
“What time is it?” I asked sleepily.
“It’s two in the afternoon, you must have been really exhausted from what happened.”
“Two?”
“Yeah you even slept through the delivery.”
“What delivery?”
“You’ll see…”

She then carried me out of Cali’s room and brought me upstairs into the loft. I saw that there were two doors on either side of the loft.

“That’s my room,” she pointed to the door on the left and then too the one on the right, “and that’s your room.”
“My room?”
“Yup, I just had to order some things.”

I smiled as she brought me to the door and opened it.

It was “almost a nursery.” The walls were light blue with cute little animal characters on it. The closet on the left end of the wall was open, and I could see a large collection of diapers and the necessary supplies. There was a Bed with railings on the centre-right part of the wall close to a set of duel windows. Beside the bed was a nightstand and I could see that Cali had placed her music box and my Pacifier on it. At the end of my bed was a trunk style toy box. There was also a dresser, a changing table, and a night-light. There was a long flat black and white item on my bed but I couldn’t quiet make it out.

“So, do you like your new room?” Mika asked.
“It could do without the changing table,” I said hopefully.
“Nice try,” Mika laughed, “ and Speaking of changing tables, you are one stinky cub.”

I blushed as she brought me to the changing table and set me down. She took off my onesie and put it into a laundry hamper. She untapped my diaper and pulled it out from under me.

“Phew,” she exclaimed, “This is one full diaper.”

She threw it into a diaper pale and cleaned me up didn’t diaper or clothe me. Instead she brought me downstairs and into the bathroom. She put a stopper in the bathtub’s drain and turned the taps accordingly to fill the bath with warm water.

“Do you want bubble bath?” Mika asked as she picked up a teal bottle of the side of the tub.
“Yeah,” I said in childish tone.

As she poured a miniscule amount of the liquid into the slowly rising water her beeper went off.

“Work again,” She sighed.
“Work?” I whimpered.
“Sorry Z’ev,” She said in a disappointed tone, “Mingan can you come in here!”

I gave Mika worried but disappointed look, as I knew she was going to get Mingan to bathe me.

“Can’t Cali do it?”
“Cali’s out getting her hair done for tonight,” she explained as Mingan came into the bathroom.
“What do you want?”
“Work just called, so I need you to take care of Z’ev.”
“But…”
“No buts about it, I need you to do this for me.”
“Fine.”

Mika smiled as to say thank you. She walked out of the bathroom to get ready.

“Right…let’s get this done.” Mingan said as he lifted me into the tub.

I stayed quiet as he ran water over me and got out baby shampoo. I squirmed in discomfort as he rubbed it into my fur.

“You’re doing it to rough,” I told him.
“Awww…poor baby,” he scoffed at me, “It’s not like I like doing these things.”

After half an hour or so he felt satisfied about how clean I was he started to wash the shampoo out of my fur.

“There were done,” he said as he pulled me out of the tub.

When he set me down on the carpet in front of the tub. I instinctively shook the water out of my fur, which ended up covering Mingan.

“You little bastard.”
“I-I’m…” but I ran away from him and into the living room. As he chased after me I ducked under the table and rolled behind the couch.

“I’m sorry!” I cried.
“To late, you little brat.”

As I mirrored Mingan’s movement around the couch he started to get frustrated. He jumped over the couch and I tried to run but he pinned to the ground.

“I’m sorry I’m sorry!”
“Nope…to late…”
“Please get off me.” I cried
“Are you going to get my new clothes wet again?”

That’s when I felt it…for the first time in a long time I felt that familiar pressure.

“Get off! I screamed with tears streaming down my face, “Get off!”
“I can’t here you,” he mocked, “what aren’t you going to do?”
“Nooooo…”

Without any control I released my bladder onto the living room carpet.

“Eww gross!” Mingan exclaimed leaping to his feet as he noticed the initial wetness spreading.
“I told you to get off of me,” I yelled as I burst into tears.

I ran across the apartment and up the stairs and into my newly assigned bedroom.
I headed towards my dresser and just barely managed to pull a diaper out of the top drawer. I walked over to my bed and tried to put on the diaper to no avail. I threw it across the room and slumped to the ground and cried in frustration.

A couple minutes passed by.

I didn’t look up even when someone came into the room and put their hand on my shoulder. The hand was soft and warm. I immediately knew it wasn’t Mingan.

“Hey Buddy,”

It seems in the resulting panic I didn’t realise Cali entering the apartment. She picked me up with a diaper in hand and set me on the bed.

“I think I saw most of what happened,” she explained.

I looked up at Cali while wiping away my tears. She looked beautiful. She had her hair styled up and was wearing diamond studs earrings.

“I really don’t know what possesses Mingan to do such things,” she said as she started to apply the diaper to me, “sometimes he can be a real jerk.”

“W-well it was kind of my fault…I got him all wet.”
“No Z’ev it wasn’t,” she assured me sternly, “that’s no reason for him to have acted that way.”
“But-
“No buts about it…” she looked at me as if she had changed her train of thought, “and he hasn’t even gotten you ready for tonight.”
“What’s tonight?” I asked.
“Never you mind that,” she said as she tapped the diaper and picked up the item lying beside me.


It was a small tuxedo. As she brought the tuxedo towards me I stepped backwards in hesitation.

“Are we going somewhere fancy?” I said with worry in my voice. Partially because I didn’t want others to see me with a diaper, and the rest of it was because I hated getting dressed up.

“Don’t be worried, you’ll like where we’re going,” she assured me.

I decided it was pointless to resist because no matter what I was going to have to go. She finally finished fitting the tuxedo to me, it was a little loose other wise it looked good. As she brought me back downstairs I saw Mingan carrying a bucket and rag away from where I had my accident. I also realised that he was holding his nose, which seemed to be bleeding. As we walked by him I lowered my face trying to hide my smile.

We entered Cali’s room and she shut the door. She told me to go sit on the bed, so I complied. She went over to her closet and pulled out two dresses.

“Which one do you think should I wear Z’ev?” She asked holding them close to herself.
“Ummm…”

The first dress was blood red, form fitting, with one shoulder strap that seemed to be held together with a rose. The other was an emerald green dress with a bustier for the top; it was looser at the bottom then the red dress and had an elegant flow to it. It took me a while but eventually I chose the green dress, which made Cali smile.

“Good choice,” she told me.

Almost immediately she started to undress. I covered my eyes, as I was a little uncomfortable with the situation.

“Ummm Cali…”
“What?”
“I’m still in the room.”
“Oh it doesn’t bother me,” she explained, “Your six.”




We left the apartment with a diaper bag in hand, and when we were finally outside there was a limo there to meet us. We got in and started to go to the mystery location I almost felt like royalty. It was kind of uncomfortable.

“Why can’t you tell me where we are going?” I asked.
“It’s a surprise.”

I gave up asking her questions and fell asleep in her lap. When I woke up we had finally reached the destination. It was a large Hall that almost looked like a mansion. When we walked up to the door there was a security guard in a suit standing there with a clipboard. Cali informed him of whom we were. He handed Cali something and he let us pass through. Before we entered through the main doors Cali stopped me a hand me a card on a fabric necklace.

“Here Z’ev take this, it will allow you to go into the private areas and see mommy-I mean Mika.”

She then took me by the hand and we entered through a pair of large oak doors. As we entered I heard Mika’s voice announce, “ Welcome to Naptime Incorporated seventh annual Children’s Ball.”

Nice. I like it so far. That brother of Cali's though is a bit of a moran. Heck I actually yelled that at my monitor. Still though nice stuff. Can't wait for the next one.

I finshed another chapter...finally...

Black Ties : Part 2




Thunderous applause projected from the sea of furs that resembled penguins, although I’m sure some may have been penguins. Cali started towards the crowd, but I didn’t follow her. I felt as if something were holding me in place. When Cali realised I wasn’t following her she turned around and came over to me. She knelt down and put her hand on my shoulder.

“Scared?” she said in an understanding tone
“…T-there’s so many people…”
“I know how you feel,” she said holding out her hand, “just grab onto my hand and squeeze tighter when you’re afraid.”
“Okay,” I agreed giving her a half-smile.

As we made ourselves through the crowd I felt as if every eye were on me. Well, my diapers to be exact. I lowered my head and squeezed Cali’s hand tightly. After what seemed like an eternity we made it through the crowd and to a table near the stage. Cali sat me beside a small female grey tabby cat wearing a pink frilly dress. I shifted in my seat trying to hide my diaper from the supposedly unsuspecting girl beside me. At the moment my diaper felt bigger than I was.

“Okay Z’ev I’m going to be over that table,” Cali explained as she point across the room at a small table of furs that looked about her age.
“But, I don’t know anyone,” I complained with worry in my voice.
“Well Z’ev I guess your going to need to make some friends.”
“But-

By the time the next words came out of my mouth Cali was already half way to the other table. I adjusted in my seat while looking at the girl beside me hoping she wouldn’t notice. Then I saw it, under her dress was a diaper. In fact every kid around me was wearing diapers under their clothes.

“What going on here,” I thought to myself.

I studied the other kids around me. On the other side of me there was a rather large looking panda adjusting his clip-on bowtie. Across the table there was a grumpy looking albino hedgehog, and on either side of him was two raccoon bickering back and forth. I continued to stare at the grumpy Hedgehog until he started staring back. I quickly looked away and started to play with the card Cali had given me.

The card read V.I.P, and had the logo of Mika’s company plastered all over the back. After staring at the card for a while I decided to go wait for Mika to finish her speech and get all the details of what was going on. I stuffed the card in my coat pocket letting the necklace part hang out and got out of my chair. I stopped a Squirrel carrying a clipboard and asked him how to get into the private areas showing him my VIP card. He led me to a door. As we passed through the crowd I was bumped multiple times. When we finally reached the door he opened it for me.

“Now you need to go up those stairs and go into the second door on the left…you do know what left is right?”
“Yes I do…”I said a little frustrated.
“Alright,” He said leaving.

I followed his instructions and came to the door he told to go to but it was locked.

“Great directions,” I said out loud.

As I turned away to try another door I bumped into someone and fell to the ground.
“Are you supposed to be back here?”

I looked up to see a large Kodiak bear with an earpiece, dressed in jeans and a T-shirt the read staff.

“Yeah I’m allowed back here,” I said as I reached into my pocket to grab the card.

It was gone. It must have fallen out whilst I was being bumped around in the crowd.

“I’m Mika’s son,”
“That’s funny you don’t look seventeen,”
“I-I don’t have my card…”
“Alright you’re going to have come with me,” he said as he reached down to grab me by the arm.

Immediately I panicked and ducked under his legs, and ran down the hall behind him. He began to chase me but every time he grabbed at me I ducked or dodged out of the way. As I turned the corner I saw a door that read back stage start to open and a gorilla dressed like the Kodiak came out holding coffees on a tray. I ran by the gorilla, which didn’t seem to faze him until the Kodiak told him to grab me.

I barely escaped the gorilla’s attempts to catch me. I turned another corner and saw Mika so I ran towards her, not realising that she was in the middle of her speech.

“In saying that I would like to announce the new bi-annual special cases,” Mika announced as I ran out onto the stage and wrapped my arms around her legs almost making her fall.
“Well speak of the devil, here’s one of them now,” she smiled and picked me up as the crowd laughed at the coincidence.

“What?”

I finally clued in to where I was and the blood drained from my face I was looking out at almost two hundred faces, and they were all staring back at me. I started to hyperventilate and I hid my face on Mika’s shoulder.

“If you’ll all excuse me,” she addressed the crowd and motioned to Cali to meet her offstage.

She took me off stage and began to rub my back in an attempt to calm me down.

“What happened Z’ev?” she asked.
“I told them…you’re mommy…two people…try to get me…big,”
“You’re not making any sense,”

That’s when the two stagehands ran around the corner they were soon followed by Cali.

“I see,”

She pointed at the Kodiak and the Gorilla, and simultaneously their eyes widened.

“You two wait there, Cali take Z’ev, calm him down, and bring him back to his seat.”

Mika then handed me over to Cali and she began to walk back the way we came.

“Th-those people were m-mean,” I choked as I calmed down.
“Well you shouldn’t have gone off on your own silly,”
“But you said that if I had the card-
“You mean this card,” she said pulling it out of her purse. “I found it on the ground, besides you should have asked me if you wanted to go see Mika.”
“I just wanted to know what was going on.”

Even when I was an adult I hated not knowing what was going on, Cali would later on explain as I was seated back at my table that we were at Mika’s company’s annual ball to announce the Special cases taken on by the company, and that I was a guest of honour, and so was everyone else at my table.

“Guest of honour…”
“Yep that’s you,” Cali said enthusiastically, “and if you feel the need to go anywhere anytime soon, please tell me.”
“Okay,”
“Promise?”
“Yeah,” I sighed.
“Good,”

Cali handed me back my card and returned to her table.

“You’re weird,” a voice beside me said.
“What?” I said rhetorically, as I looked over at the panda that was now addressing me.
“You’re weird,” he repeated, “why would you run onto stage like that…that’s just weird.”
“…” I stayed quiet and looked away from the panda.
“Well I think he’s cute,” The cat girl beside stated.

This soon caused an argument between the Panda and cat. I slumped down in my seat and looked towards the hedgehog. He gave me a, been there, done that look. My eyes wandered away from the hedgehog and met with a Cabbit boy who was being seated directly across from me. He had brown fur, with cream coloured running down his neck. He was wearing square rimmed glass and a black-blue tuxedo with elongated tails on the back.

It was him, the boy from my dream. The only difference now was that he had a motherly middle-aged rabbit woman in a purple cocktail dress fussing over the symmetry of his face fur.

“Momma would you stop,” the cabbit said with irritation in his voice, “you’re embarrassing me.”
“Alright Hunny bunny,”
“Moooommmmm,” he whined, “don’t call me that.”
“Alright Dylan…If you need mommy I’ll be over there.”
“Alright,”

After undoing the work that his mother had done on his face fur Dylan started looking around at the others at the table. When he came across me staring our eyes locked. A look of shock appeared upon his face. After a while of staring I got up from my chair and signalled him to follow me. Dylan hesitated at first, but then decided to follow. We went off into a corner of the hall that was relatively empty.

“You’re the little kid from my dream,”
“I-wait…you just called me a little kid…”
“W-well…you are…smaller than me,” he said in an off tone.
“Alright…so what was that dream all about?”
“He’s the evil man that hurts children in their sleep and-
“What did I say?” Cali’s voice came out from behind us. “Didn’t I tell you not to wander off?
Cali grabbed me by the hand and told Dylan to go back to the table. As we walked by we overheard a blend of other people’s conversation.

“Did you hear about the body they found the body of Michael Forrester?”
“I know, they said some anonymous tipster told them exactly where it was,”

Cali stopped.

“What did you just say?” Cali asked.

A confused Beagle looked up at Cali.

“Michael Forrester’s body was found…why is it important?”

Cali gave me a look of surprise mixed with worry, and then looked back at the beagle.

“I’ve just been following the story.”

We walked back to my table where Dylan was already sitting, it seems that him and the panda had switched seats. Cali acted like she had heard nothing.

“You stay in this seat,” Cali said sternly, “or I’ll tell Mika, and she’ll give you a spanking,”
“…Okay…”

Once again Cali returned to her table and started talking with a rather muscular looking timber wolf. I turned to Dylan as he was already facing me and we started to talk.

“So what were you saying about the bad man?” I asked
“Well it’s just he’s-
“What are you talking about?” the cat girl beside me butted in.
“Ummm, Nothing,” I lied
“Were not going to get much talking done here,” Dylan sighed, “I wish there was somewhere we could talk but if you get up again you’ll get in trouble.”
“Yeah…” I replied, “by any stroke of luck we’ll be able to get together later.
“Maybe…”

After Mika was done her speech, everyone took a seat at their respective tables as waiters came from backstage and started serving people food. My mouth started to water as I realised they were serving steak and potatoes with a side of vegetable. When it came my turn to be served the waiter put chicken fingers and fries in front of me.

“What a rip off,” I thought to myself, “but that’s what you get when you’re a kid.”
I slowly finished the meal set before me. Other than Dylan I was the last to finish. I sat for a while until Mika came over to me.

“Are you enjoying yourself?” She asked.
“Kind of…”
“Well, I have someone I want you to meet,” she said picking me up, “I’m sure you’ll like her.”

She walked over to the table where she was supposedly sitting and tapped the Rabbit in the cocktail dress on the shoulder.

“Z’ev this is-
“Dylan’s Mom,”
“You know my Dylan?”
“Cali caught them wandering off together,”
“Why hello Z’ev I’m Mrs. Lanstrum,” the rabbit woman stated, “I’ve heard a lot about you, but I never thought that you were this handsome,”

As she said this I started to blush.

“Your mommy and me work at the same company,” she explained, “did you know that?”
“N-no,”
“Yep, she’s the vice-president of the company,” Mika added.
“Oh…okay.”

The night carried on for what seemed like forever. Dylan and I never got a chance to talk. Around ten o’clock it came time for all the kids to leave. Even though most of the kids were already gone.

“But, I want to play more with Dylan,” told Mika sleepily as she carried me outside.
“Dylan has to go home too,” She told me, “but you can probably see him tomorrow,”
“Tomorrow?”
“He’s lives two floor below us in the apartment silly,”

A wave of joy and relief flowed through my body when she said this. Maybe now I can finally get some answers. As we waited for the limo I rested my head on Mika’s shoulder and fell asleep.

Great! I love this so far. You did a bang up job. Very interesting. Can't wait to see where it leads.
