"Mokuba!" Ryo said running over to him. He lifted his chin to get him to look at him. "Mokuba can you hear me?" All he got was a groan. He set the basket of food on the ground, untied one hand, picked him up and untied the other. Then grabbed his shirt then picked up the basket and went to the basement where Seto was still sitting on the basement steps worried. Ryo set the basket down, opened the door and picked it back up carefully shutting the door behind him.

Seto looked up hearing the door open and hoped it was Mokuba. But his eyes went wide seeing Ryo carrying him. "Ryo what happened is he okay?"

"I found him tied to what Mokuba calls the whipping tree. He'd never been tied to it before that I'm aware of but he has told me that he has been tied to it a time or two in the past."

"Poor thing. Lets get him in here and treat him." Seto said stroking the kid's hair.

Seto sat down on the bed and they laid Mokuba across his and Ryo's legs and began to treat him. Neither one felt up to eating so they just talked for a while till they fell asleep.

A little while later Mokuba stirred and sat up rubbing his eyes, but in moving it also woke Seto and Ryo.

"Mokuba are you all right?" Seto asked.

"Yea, we've been worried about you." Ryo said.

Mokuba looked up surprised to see Seto still here. He wanted to question it but decided not to. He was still hurting and tired. So he didn't answer either question just crawled up between Seto and Ryo and curled up on Seto's chest and went back to sleep.

"Well I suppose that's a good sign. He's using us as a pillow." Ryo said.

"I guess so, but I'm still concerned." Seto said putting his hand on the boy's head and lightly stroking it.

"He seemed surprised to see you any idea why?"

"I'm not sure exactly but all I do know is well, it all started…" Seto explained everything that had happened.

x-x-x-x-x-x-xx-x-x-x-x-x

"Well what do you think could have set him off into thinking you were leaving?"

"If I knew the answer to that then I'd find a way to fix it."

"I see, well I'm really worried about him myself. I had plans to move in with my brother tomorrow but now, I'm not too sure I want to leave him."

"That's the biggest reason why I haven't left."

"Well sadly neither of us can stay forever. I hope he can survive without us. I know he did before he met us but now that he has…"

"If I have any say in the matter he wont be staying."

"What do mean by that?"

"I haven't had the chance to ask him yet, but I want him to come live with me. I want to adopt him."

"I think he'd love it."

"I think so too, but every time I try to ask something happens. It's like the fates are against me asking. I'd love to just scoop him up and take him without asking but I'd prefer to ask to be certain that its what he wants."

"Yes, I can understand that. Not that I think he'd mind the other way, but I see your point, he might not approve of being told rather than asked."

"I'm not sure what to do if he rejects me."

"Seto look at him." Ryo said.

As Seto looked down to see the boy cuddle even closer to him with his arms wrapped around him and his head nuzzled into his chest.

"Do you honestly believe he's going to prefer staying in this hell hole over going with you. I think if he could, he'd always stay like that. I know he likes me and we're close friends but it seems he has an even greater attachment to you."

"So I'm right in believing all I have to do is say the word and he'll jump into my arms willingly."

"I believe so."

Mokuba woke up again a few hours later and was happy to find it wasn't a dream. That he was sleeping between the two people who made him feel safe and secure. As he sat up, he found that once again his back had been wrapped. He knew this time it wasn't just Seto who had done it, but Ryo as well. He turned over and snuggled into Ryo.

Seto stirred feeling the boy move. He looked over and was happy and sad at the same time. Happy the boy was safe and secure but sad that he was now sleeping on Ryo. But the kid was still using them both as a pillow so there was no way either of them could move without waking him.

x-x-x-x-x-x-xx-x-x-x-x-x

By the next morning, Mokuba had stirred again in the night so that both arms were spread across both Ryo and Seto's stomachs and his head was also on Seto.

Seto stirred and smiled seeing the boy laying on him again. He hated to wake either of them but felt it for the best. He lightly shook Ryo, who was also surprised to see the way the boy was sleeping.

Seto bent down lightly moving the boy's hair out of the way. "Time to get up kiddo."

Mokuba sat up rubbing his eyes.

"How are you feeling?" Ryo asked.

"O-okay." Mokuba told him.

"What happened kiddo, what made them suddenly go to this extreme?" Seto asked.

Mokuba debated on what to tell he wasn't sure what to tell them.

"Mokuba you have to tell us?" Ryo said.

Mokuba however wasn't sure.

"Mokuba please tell us." Seto said putting his hand on his shoulder.

Mokuba looked up at Seto and sighed neither one was going to let up till he told them something. "N-Noah kept tripping me m-making me drop the plates. T-then at l-lunch he scared m-me and I backed into t-the plates with food on t-them and spilled the f-food and broke the plates."

"Well I've still got sandwiches I wrapped up last night so why don't we eat them." Ryo said deciding to change the subject some.

They ate the sandwiches and Mokuba decided that he'd have to get breakfast ready. So, he got Ryo to take off the bandages though he didn't want to.

"I h-have to m-make breakfast." Mokuba said.

"Mokuba." Seto asked.

"Yeah."

"Later I have something important I've been meaning to ask you. I just haven't had the chance to ask you. I'm really sorry about what happened yesterday. You didn't let me explain you took off before you let finish."

"S-sorry."

"It's all right. You run along and do you best to stay clear of Noah, today."

"C-can't."

"What do you mean you, can't?" Ryo asked.

"I-it's Noah's birthday and he-he wants the h-house to himself."

"Well I still want you to be extra careful."

"I w-will I p-promise."

x-x-x-x-x-x-xx-x-x-x-x-x

Mokuba got upstairs to find the family sitting there talking.

"Oh JJ, there you are. You won't need to fix breakfast; Asana and I are going to town. So you be good and do as Noah says."

Mokuba didn't like the sound of that.

After they were gone, Ryo said goodbye to Seto and went home to get the house ready till his parents returned. He had to board the place up to protect it from weather and things. Then he had to get his stuff prepared to go live at the castle.

x-x-x-x-x-x-xx-x-x-x-x-x

After Noah was absolutely certain they were gone, it was time to put his plan into action.

"JJ, bring me those huckleberries."

Mokuba walked over and set them on the table. Then before he could leave Noah grabbed his arm.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Mokuba only whimpered.

"Let's go somewhere more private." Noah said shoving the huckleberries into the boy's hand. Then he led the boy upstairs to his bedroom. Once there he said, "Now, go sit down on the bed and stay there." Noah said.

Mokuba whimpered doing as he was told trying to keep from crying knowing that would only get him into more trouble. He'd been dreading this day since Noah said he wanted to be alone with him. He didn't know what it was truly Noah wanted to do but he knew he wasn't going to like it.

Noah then walked over took the huckleberries and set them on the bed. Then he stripped the boy of his shirt. Then he unfastened the boy pants then he laid him down. Then he showed him a huckleberry and placed it on the boy's lips. Then he leaned down and kissed the boy taking the berry and eating it. Then he placed a huckleberry on each of the boy's nipples. Then he'd bite down on the boy's nipple and the berry at the same time. Then he licked the juices caused by the berry. Then moved over and did the same with the other.

'Mmm…if I had thought it'd be this good I'd have brought some honey to pour all over him. Oh well I'll just imagine it and try to remember it next time.' Noah thought. Had he not feared JJ would get away he'd go get it. Plus at the moment, he could barley think, he didn't believe he'd be able to get downstairs and back in the state he was currently in. Then he started to rub the boy between his legs hard and fast, while raining kisses along his cheek on down to nibble at his earlobe. Mokuba couldn't help but squirm beneath the assault.

"N-no!" Mokuba screamed.

"What now, after all this time, you chose now to speak. So it's true you do want this as much as I do!" Noah said.

Mokuba violently shook his head no. "N-n-no, p-p-please."

"Yes, just what I wanted to know." Noah said and then moved his hand to inside the boys pants and then really started to stroke him harder and faster.

Mokuba whimpered more and squirmed to get away to get Noah to release him. But as he continued, Mokuba let out an involuntary groan and whimpered.

"Hmm…I thought as much you just needed a little encouragement."

'All I n-need is for you to let me go!' Mokuba thought desperately. He hated this, hated what Noah was doing to him. He really hated it that his body was enjoying it. He frantically searched for some way anyway to make Noah stop! Finally, he grabbed the berry bowl and hit Noah in the head with it. Noah put his hand to his head and Mokuba decided to hit him again in order to get Noah to move. It worked, he moved to the side enough for Mokuba to get up grab his shirt and take off out of the room.

Mokuba wasn't exactly sure what happened or why he felt so strange at Noah's doing that. All he knew was he just wanted away from there and away from him! He was concerned but happy that Noah wasn't following him, but also knew that Noah would be back. So, he decided to start his normal chores. If he thought he could make it back to the house and Seto, he would have. But he was afraid to go anywhere near the house. He knew it was going to be a matter of time till Noah came back for him. After feeding the animals, he decided to do the only other chore that he'd been putting off but now was just as good as any, painting the barn.

x-x-x-x-x-x-xx-x-x-x-x-x

Mokuba hadn't realized it was way past lunch he was just so thankful at not having to put up with Noah at the moment he hadn't noticed. He'd been trying to concentrate on the task at hand. Soon Noah appeared a few feet beside him.

"Well JJ, it seems you've been and even naughtier than I thought."

Mokuba jumped he didn't know Noah was there.

"You missed lunch."

"Huh." Mokuba looked at the sun and realized Noah was right it was way past noon.

"Well no need to worry about that, now. I have something I want even more than food."

Mokuba whimpered and backed away seeing Noah rubbing himself between his legs.

"Now, you know you want this as much as I do. Why are you fighting me? Denying what you know we both want?"

Mokuba quickly dropped the brush and ran, but Noah being bigger and faster easily caught up with him. He dragged the struggling boy into the barn. He shut the door and dragged the boy to a near by stall.

"Now take your clothes off, go in there and lie down." Noah ordered.

'No! No way! He'll have to tear them off first! I don't care how badly he beats me I'm not going to do it!' Mokuba thought clutching his shirt crossing his hands a bit.

"Do it now, or I'll use my new birthday present on you. It's a new toy mother bought me."

Mokuba looked up and his eyes went wide with horror to see Noah standing over him holding a 46 inch flogger with sharp metal tips at it's twelve tails. Mokuba dashed past Noah to run but Noah tripped him and brought what he called his new toy down on Mokuba's back several times loving to hear the boy scream!

"Now that makes 15 and one to grow on!" Noah laughed making sure the last strike was the hardest. "You know it's just so much fun to see someone take my birthday licks for me. I feel someone should officially receive my birthday spanking and it wasn't going to be me. So, there now it's official!" Noah said getting up off of him. He was sure the child wouldn't be able to move much less run away. So, he walked back over to the table and set the flogger on it, then turned back to the boy.

"Well you know I could just strip you of your clothes and take you here and now, but then that would take away all of my fun." Noah said going over and pulling the crying child up, then throwing him against the wall. "Besides I was anticipating this moment and as you see the blankets all set up in the barn." He then pinned him to the wall. He got down on his knees and put his weight against him so that his hands were free to roam the child's body. He again started to nibble at his neck then gently bit down on Mokuba's collarbone.

Mokuba whimpered and cried loudly at that and tried pushing Noah off. He tried desperately to think of some of the self-defense moves Ryo had taught him but his mind was a blank. Then suddenly Noah started to kiss him, then rub him. Mokuba gasped as Noah squeezed him. Noah smiled and deepened the kiss, his tongue mapping out Mokuba's mouth. Mokuba was doing his best to think of what to do but it wasn't easy. Then he felt Noah unbutton his pants. He then squirmed even more and even started to try to kick, but Noah moved his knees pinning the boy's legs to the wall. Mokuba kept pushing at Noah to no avail. Noah loved that and even began moving up and down on the child to rub their bodies together that much more.

Noah broke the kiss for air but made certain his weight was pressed against the boy. "Now why fight me?" Noah said slipping his hand in to the boy's pants and started to rub him even more. "You know you're going to enjoy this. We're both going to have a very nice time. If you'd stop struggling and just let your self-feel, you know you'd love it too. It's a shame we couldn't have done this sooner. Mother's always so overprotective of me." Noah said running his free hand under the boys shirt and over the boy's nipples and bringing them to their peaks and loving the boy's moans. "This is one of the only chances I've gotten since I decided I wanted you that mother's ever kept her word and left you alone with me! Now lets resume shall we?" Noah said as he started to lick and kiss the boy's neck and continued doing things Mokuba didn't even want to think about to his privates.

A few minutes later Mokuba started to feel this burning urge overtake him. "W-what… a-are... y-y-you… d-doing?"

Noah's looked at him and his smile got even more deviously wicked looking. 'Well I'm guessing that little statement means he's probably coming close to his release very soon. But we can't have him waste it in his pants now can we?' Noah thought licking his lips.

This only made Mokuba's whimper louder, he hated the fact that he was starting to enjoy what Noah was doing to him, even though his mind was fighting his body's reaction all the way.

"So you do like this. Perhaps its time I do more that just rub you with my hand." Noah said starting to kiss him deeply again, removing his hand from inside the child's pants and slowly trying to take them off.

But the moment Mokuba felt Noah's hand start to try to remove his pants by tugging on them gently taking it slow. Mokuba knew if he got them off it be too late and Noah would have his way with him. Then he thought of Seto and Ryo they'd never want to look at him and would hate him if he let Noah do this. So as Noah started to kiss him again, he waited till he felt Noah's tongue touch the roof of his mouth, he decided he wasn't going to let Noah take his innocence away anymore than he already has! So, with all his might he bit down on Noah's tongue.

"Ow, you little brat. You'll pay for that." Noah said backing away from him, with one knee on the ground, holding his bleeding tongue. He moved just enough that Mokuba had room to move.

Mokuba finally remember Ryo's telling him if he couldn't use any of the moves, he taught him that if it's a male the best defense was to kick him between the legs. And since Noah was clutching his mouth sitting only on one knee Mokuba did just that. He ran past Noah but stopped just behind him. Then he pushed him forward to try to buy another minute or two of time. As soon as he was out the door he trip on a board that fell on his back causing him to cry out. He climbed out from under the board and remembered it was to lock the barn door up during storms and heavy winds. He grabbed the board up shut the door and put the board in place. He pulled his pants all the way back up and was going to fasten then when he suddenly heard pounding on the door he just shut!

"Let me out of here you little brat! I'm not finished with you yet!"

'Yeah well at least for today I'm safe from you.'

Suddenly one of the lower door panels cracked. Mokuba yelped realizing Noah was trying to get out. Mokuba turned to decide what to do; normally he'd go to his cave or maybe Ryo's. Even if the family had been home, they wouldn't have helped. Then he remembered Seto was still here and ran towards the house. He had to tell Seto and hoped he'd understand and protect him from Noah! He tripped several times, yelped and looked back at every sound of a board crashing! Then he tripped again and his foot was stuck in a hole. He quickly pulled it out it hurt but he didn't care. Noah was getting closer to getting out and if he got out and got to him before he got to Seto, he'd be done for! He quickly got up and ran finally making it to the door but it wouldn't open. He tugged and tugged but nothing. He collapsed to the ground crying. He then remember that the grass had been slightly wet when the family left and then he remembered that the door always swelled up when it rained making it nearly impossible to open from the outside. It wasn't as easy from the inside either but was a bit easier there you pulled rather than pushed. He cried and started to lightly bang on the door and yelped again hearing more and more boards crashing!
