''Damn bears...'' Connor muttered as he cleaned the blood off the cool ebony sword as he sat on small rock, he had just finished clearing out a cave of bear's that the Jalk of Markarth had put a bounty on. He was a young Nord with short brown hair and a medium sized beard rested on his chin. He had a young but handsome face and deep blue eye's and he was clad in dragon scale armor which had also had a shield and helm of. But he had rested those on the ground. He paused to wipe the sweat from his brow. His eye's catching the sun. About three or four o'clock by his guess. Then he heard the patter of feet coming from around the corner before he could get up to defend himself two...boys? Yes two boys, children clearly and Nords to boot.

''You two gave me a small scare. But what are you two doing out here? The reach is a dangerous place, forsworn and wild animals roam this land.'' Connor said as he stood up. He towered over the two. He extended his gloved hand. ''My name is Connor, you two are...?''

''My name is Sond Sir.'' Said the boy, he wore light brown, tan almost clothes.

''And im Bottar, sir.'' Bottar was a redhead and wore what Sond wore but darker brown.

The Dragonborn nodded. ''Nice to meet you. But you didn't answer my question.'' Connor said as he attached his helm to his belt and shield on his back.

Sond looked at his coin purse before looking back up to him. ''Well we found some cool stuff from nearby. Dwemer things. You can buy them if you want.'' Sond said as he showed a back pack. In it was some Dwemer Cogs and pieces.

Connor frowned. These boys were skulking around some ruin? ''Where did you find these? Could you mark it on my map?'' Connor asked.

Sond brighten as he looked back at Bottar. ''I will. Iiif you give me a few gold coins. Say...five?'' The boy said cheekily.

Connor snorted. He smiled and shook his head. Darn kids. ''Oh fine, here you go boy. Five gold septims.'' Connor said as he pulled them out and put the in the boy's hand. He then held out his map. ''Now where is this?''

Sond smiled and pocketed the coins. As he went to point out where they all heard a roar come from the distance.

Connor shot his head up as he put his map away. In the distance he saw a Dragon heading right towards them. The boys gasped told him they saw it to. ''Boys.'' He said seriously. He pointed to the cave. ''Go inside. Go to the very back of the cave and stay there understand.'' As he saw them to still be in shock he roughly tugged the boys and sent a hard painful spank to their rears. ''I said go! Now!'' That got the boys attention and they scurried inside.

Connor pulled on his helm and equipped his shield. He drew his blade. He saw the beast coming straight towards him. ''Lets go monster.'' He said to himself.

Sond and Bottar hurried inside the cave. ''Talos preserve us that was a dragon!'' Bottar said frightened.

Sond gulped and nodded. ''Yeah I saw it...'' Then they both heard a three worded shout in a strange and different language and heard a loud bang as if something heavy it the ground. Then they heard the sound of fighting. Sond's mouth dropped. ''T-that was a shout! Its..its the DragonBorn!'' He said excitedly.

Bottar nodded and smile on his face. ''Amazing! That thing is as good as dead then! Come on, lets go see.'' Bottar said and then the two rushed to the cave exit to peek outside.

Conner was in a fierce battle. The Dragon was incredibly strong. ''Ack Haaa!'' He spun around to slice the large beast across the eyes. As he turned and faced the cave entrance his face turned to one of horror! ''WHAT ARE YOU DOING! GET BACK INSIDE-Gah!'' He turned as he saw the beast breath in. It was going to shout! Connor shouted back with soul tear. The dragon was injured but if that shout didn't kill it then the boys and him would surely die!

As the shout washed over the beast it roared before it fell limp, dying. Before it started to burn away to reveal its skeleton.

Connor breathed in relief. He stood up straightened as the he absorbed the dragon's soul into him, its flesh burning away leaving a giant skeleton. As new knowledge rushed into him he felt and heard faintly the two boys rejoicing and shaking him.

''That was amazing! You are the Dragonborn! The one of legend! And you did it! You killed the dragon!'' Sond shouted happily as he and Bottar bounced up and down in excitement. That was ruined when their ears were harshly grabbed. ''Haha you did it-Ack ow!'' Sond and Bottar yelped and reached to try to get Connor's fingers off their ears. ''Ow hey what's the big Idea?'' Bottar said as he winced. It felt like his ear was going to be torn off!

Sond said the same thing. ''Yeah what are you doing!'' He yelled before he and his friend was tugged painfully by their ears into the cave. ''Owowow.'' They both yelped.

''You two idiots!'' Connor roared. ''I told you to stay in the cave! You could have died coming out! That Dragon was about to roast us all!'' Connor yelled as they entered the cave. Once deep inside he let the two go, pushing them forward.

The two boys had tears in their eye's as they held their poor red ears. Before they could retort the Dragonborn spoke. ''Go! Go and cut yourself's a switch! Im going to tear your backside's up!''

Sond and Bottar mouth dropped as they looked back to see a switching tree. ''W-what? No please sir-'' Connor interrupted. ''I SAID CUT A SWITCH! Or im going to go and use every single damn branch on your sorry hides!'' Connor threatened.

Sond and Bottar bit their lips as they scurried to cut a suitable switch. They held their heads down in shame. In a few minutes they came back to the Dragonborn who held his hand out for the switch. Sond handed the man the switch nervously.

Connor took hold of the switch. He tested it in the air and on his gloved hand. ''You two did something right at least. Come.'' He order as he walked further back till he found a small chest he took off his gloves and sat them down. ''Okay, both of you drop your trousers. Sond, you face the cave wall. Bottar you come here.'' Conner said as he sat on the chest.

The boys blushed and lowered their Trousers to their ankles exposing themselves to the mad. Sond went to the cave wall while Bottar came to Connor's side. ''Please sir Im sorry-!'' He was just roughly pulled over the dragonborn's lap his hand was pulled to the middle of his back and then the older man began to spank his arse with his hand. Bottar bit his lip and tried to silence himself but after seven hard spanks he started to whimper and then cry out.

Connor's hand flew as it peppered Bottar's sorry backside painting it quite red quickly.

Sond had his eyes fiercely shut as he heard his friends pained cries. He felt tears come to his own eyes. He felt so stupid for leaving the cave.

Bottar was pitifully weeping as he thought the exact same way. He gripped the man's legs as he was pushed forward and his sit spots attacked. His crying renewed quickly. ''Waah! Please stop! Im sorry im sorry!'' He pleaded.

Connor came to a stop. ''I dont want you ever to do something so stupid and dangerous again. Now hold on...'' Connor warned as he picked up the switch and began to use that to switch the boy.

Bottar began to bawl as vivid red welts formed on his already red backside.

Connor didn't stop till the boy's butt was criss crossed with red welts. He picked the boy up. ''No rubbing and replace Sond. Sond! Come here boy.'' He ordered as he set Bottar to the cave wall.

Sond pitifully walked over to Connor and didnt say anything as he was put over the man's knee and his arm was dragged to his mid back.

Conner watched to make sure Bottar didn't rub as he stood in the corner. The boys arse was well beaten. He looked down at the already crying boy. ''I think you are already understanding your mistake. That wont make this any less painful.'' Connor said as he raised his palm and began to spank Sond like he did Bottar.

Sond had a very similar reaction to the spanking as his friend, kicking and crying as his boyish butt was beaten red and then switched. He screamed as his butt was criss crossed with welts before he went limp, accepting the punishment.

''Dont you ever do something as stupid as that again.'' Connor scolded as he finished. He pulled the boy up and stood him next to his friend. ''Stay their, dont talk or rub.'' Connor ordered.

Sond nodded as he hiccuped. He desperately wanted to rub his welted rear but he didn't want to be punished again.

Connor stood their watching. He watched as the two boy's rears bruised. After thirty minutes he walked over to the boys and turned them around before hugging them both. ''Shh its okay now...'' He said softly as the two boys cried into his armored chest. He rubbed their backs gently until they composed themselves. ''Okay you two. Redress now. I'l guide you two to Rorikstead. Its safe their, much safer than the reach.

Sond and Bottar blushed and nodded as they reached down and drew their trouser's back up. They hissed and winced as the material brushed over their welted rears. They would have trouble sitting and walking for days! ''Yes sir...'' They both said as they wiped their tears.

Conner nodded. ''Good, lets get moving.'' With that he and the boy's left the cave.
