The Mysteries
Part 2
Leon Heart

	Orin lay dreaming, never wanting to awaken from the pleasant
memories swirling through his dreams. Things had been fine, he and Blyn
were the best of friends. Why did his brother have to take all that away...

	Blyn reached his 4 thousandth year 1 thousand years after Orin. His
brother never stopped wanting Blyn, and seemed to lose more of his sanity
with each passing day. He'd creep in the shadows, saying not a word to
anyone, just staring... One day when Orin returned, he found his brother
crouched in a corner, holding his head in his hands. He was laughing...a
low mechanical laugh. Orin didn't even have a chance to scream as he
noticed the blood on his brother's hands. Jase lunged at him, but Orin
found the knife...

	He'd buried Blyn, barely able to see through the tears. 'Damn him'
kept tightly in his mind. He'd grabbed what he could carry, and ran for his
life. He'd kept running..until Kar found him.

**********

	Orin yawned to himself, scratching his back. He didn't know where
he was, or what time of the day it was at that. He noticed suddenly he was
in the nude, and not alone either. He felt himself turn crimson, then told
himself to get over it and began looking around. The room was rather
sparse, with four beds, dressers, desks, and two doors, one he assumed lead
to a bathroom. The walls were painted white, and the floor was a glossy
white marble. His sheets and bedding were white, but his bed was black.

	Someone was definitely color oriented, for the other boy's in the
rooms had beds in the same fashion. Sheets and bedding contrasting their
hair color, and bed the same color as their hair. An older boy was asleep
across from Orin, he looked roughly 6 thousand or so, with red hair. His
bedding was blue, and the boy next to him looked about 5 thousand, with
purple hair and dark blue, almost black sheets. The boy next to Orin had
sparkling white hair, and his sheets were black, how surprising. He was
younger than the rest, probably around 3 thousand. Suddenly the red haired
boy began to stir, and Orin suddenly noticed he had a red leather collar on
his neck.

	"What's that for?" he asked
	"Hmm...what? Oh you're awake, nosy aren't we? Ah don't worry, it's
just so Nate can keep me in line. I get a bit frisky at times. When you're
a guy's pet, you sometimes don't wanna do what he wants to, ya dig?" he
said, laughing.
	"Yea...How'd he catch you?"
	"I got cocky, got caught. My fault, thought I was strong enough to
taunt him. See I had this power he couldn't fight, so I'd taunt him with
it. Well he found out my weakness by studying me. I was so stupid...now he
has the power and me." he stared off, thinking to himself. He seemed sad
and Orin wanted to pity him, but he was evidently in control of his
emotions for suddenly he burst into a smile and went to talking again. Who
could be awake at this time of the morning?! Or was it even morning?
	"Well since you're new, it's time for intros. You're probably Kar's
new flunky. Just kidding man, chill. He's been chasing you for how long
now? Well the kid next to you is Skye. He's a pearl and most we know is
he's from some dimension. Next to me is Gil, he's from some star. His
hair's purple cause he's a twister, meaning he can control wind. Sky
belongs to Evin and Gil belongs to Sahr. I'm the only one not mated,
excluding you. I'm Craig, and I'm from Mercury. I'm what you'd call a Lava,
meaning I stayed mostly on the surface. I don't have a goo form like
Magmas, but I can go through things. So, name, location, etc??"
	"Orin, I lived in a Black Forest. I was caught when I got cocky as
well, and by the way, why are we nude? "
	"That's narrowing it," Craig poked him,"just be glad Kar isn't as
big as Nate. You'd probably die. YOU'RE nude cause Kar either likes you
that way or he wasn't sure how you liked to sleep. There's clothes in your
dresser to your left, probably." Orin retrieved a pair of boxers, grateful
they were black.

	Orin was going to ask what kind of big Craig had meant, when a
swishing sound indicated a door had opened, he hadn't noticed it before.
	"Hi Nate, have a morning boner you want me to help you with?" Craig
said icily, but in a playful manner.
	"No, not right now, but you just wait a little bit longer and
you'll have a belly full. It's time to eat, so eat...I'll see you later."
Nate pinched Craig's nipple, causing him to moan, and then immediately
growl, a huge grin appearing on his face.
	"Now now, wouldn't want me to get the paddle now would we my pet?"
	"No." another grin.
	"No...?"
	"No SIR."
	"Good boy." He grinned, and began leaving a tray at the end of each
bed, then ruffling Craig's hair as he left with the tray cart.

	As soon as he'd gone, the boys all awoke and began to eat. None
noticed Orin so he watched them as he ate, picking at his food. Skye ate
quietly, barely making a sound, while Gil seemed to come alive. He talked
and talked about a dream he'd had involving his mate, when he finally
noticed Orin and gave him a friendly wave.
	"Gil, don't make me get Sahr in here to silence you, he's the only
one who can anyway." Craig said jokingly.
	"Bah, he's out anyway. Nate can silence you just as easily." he
retorted, grinning mischievously.
	"Well who can't he silence?" dropped in Skye, lighting up the room
with his infectious smile.
	"Now you talk, you little traitor!" Craig jumped to tackle Skye,
who immediately dived behind Orin.
	"Hi," Sky said grinning, "who are you?"
	"Apparently your hiding place." Everyone busted up at that, but
Skye simply turned crimson, starting to pout. This brought even more
laughter.

	"So, what is this stuff anyway?" blurted Orin, after catching his
breath.
	"Well, we don't usually stay here, but Kar was after you so here we
are. We eat whatever they give us, and this my friend is what is called
"hot cereal." Our mates, or my owner and don't look at me like that Gil,
know what we like but I'm not sure what Kar picked for you." Craig was the
oldest, so he seemed to act as the leader of this little group.
	"It tastes like sugar...of some kind." It's good, too bad Kar
picked it.
	"Probably brown sugar." said Skye, smelling at Orin's food.

[Names of things are translated for better understanding, hehe]

	"Get! Don't make me give you a bad hair day!"
	Sky jumped off the bed, giggling at Orin. Suddenly the door opened
with a whooshing noise, revealing a young male, though evidently older than
Craig, wearing a long black trench coat that ended at about his ankles. He
wore a tightly fitting black shirt with dark gray dress pants. His hair was
black and flowing long at his shoulders. Orin first thought it might be
Kar, but he looked so much younger.

	"Evin!" Skye jumped at the guy, who smiled broadly as they hugged
and snuggled. 'Hmmph, he's definitely not Kar.'
	"Miss me cutey?" he said, still smiling. Orin had to admit, they
suited each other well. 'I bet Skye chose to be with Evin, lucky
little...what am I thinking? Mating is for sissies...' Skye was evidently
hyper, 'are they all morning people...,' cause he hugged just giggled
hugging Evin again.
	"Duh! When is Kar gonna mate with Orin so we can go home?" he gave
a puppy dog face, causing Evin to smile more.
	"Hey! I ain't anyone's property. Don't act like he can just mate
with me whenever he chooses, it's not like he owns me." Orin was angry, he
hated the idea of mating or being owned by anyone. Men were pigs, plain and
simple.
	"He didn't come here willingly?!" Craig said in surprise, everyone
turning to look at Orin.
	"My brother, Kat, fell in love with a Black Forest. They're so
damned stubborn, what can you expect from him? Wait till Orin's eight
thousand, and finally ready to admit he's willing to mate? "
	"I'll never mate, you men are just a bunch of pigs." Orin growled,
crossing his arms in a funny pouting expression.  Everyone busted up
laughing, making Orin even more angry.
	"DAMMIT! It's not funny!"
	"Not all men are pigs, why would you say that? I mean look at
Craig, he is a pet yet he's happy." Gil got side slapped by Craig, who was
grinning evilly.
	"If they can kill your best friend just because he won't mate, then
they're all scum."  Everyone went silent, Evin finally breaking the
silence.

	"Kar had wondered why you were so bitter. You hated everyone around
you, always running from something. You killed your brother didn't you?"
Evin's expression was stern, as a parent who knows what a child has done,
but just wants to hear the child say it.
	"What do you think?! I found him with Blyn's blood on his hands,
laughing! Dammit he was laughing! He tried to kill me too...it was self
defense, but I'd have killed him anyway."
	"Mmm, well as you know that in your culture, if you're caught you
are his property. He can't force you to mate, but I hope you'll give him a
chance. He's a kind person, he'd never hurt you."
	Orin just growled, burying himself in the sheets, cursing white
bedding.
	"Just imagine it what color you want it to be." Craig said
laughing. Orin made the bedding black and stayed hidden.
	"I'll talk to Kar, see if he knew about all this. He's been
watching him for a while now...you take care of Orin here ok?" Evin said,
running his fingers through Skye's silky hair. 'Damn he smells good,' he
thought,'I'd like to do more than just ruffle his hair right now.'
	"Ok, I will. Maybe tonight we can sleep together." added Skye,
grinning mischievously as he played with Evin's hair. Evin left the room,
grinning to himself.

***********************************************

	Ok yea, rather short but I had a friend(you know who you are!) that
would not leave me alone for an update. So here it is, I'll be adding more
shortly as next week is my Spring Break! So far we know that Orin's
suffered a big loss in his life, and doesn't trust men. We'll get a good
view of all the boys from Evin soon, and also a good idea about Kar. I
might also have a memory stage on each boy, so we can learn more about them
as well.
