A DREAM OF FREEDOM LOST

Chapter 2: Freedom Lost

It wasn't until an altercation with yet another Omega, that Feral finally connected with his mate.

Dr. Viper stole from Bio Chemical Labs yet again but wasn't as good at slipping out unnoticed this time because the sewer lids had been sealed. As he was trying to escape, the SWAT Kats and the enforcers battled his plantimals and finally netted the lizard. As the SWAT Kats prepared to leave the scene after retrieving their netting, Feral walked up to them to dress them down for trashing several vehicles and losing the chemicals Viper had stolen.

Callie saw the purposeful stride of the Commander and guessed his destination. She moved to intercept him and got to the SWAT Kats the same time as he did. But before any words could be spoken Feral's medallion went off.

Everyone stood there in shock. Feral finally reached into his shirt and drew forth the necklace. It was sounding off but it was difficult to determine which of the SWAT Kats it was identifying.

"One of you move back a ways so we can see who is setting it off." Callie finally ordered. Shaking off the shock, Razor chose to be the one to move back a few feet. The device continued to yell. To be completely sure, T-Bone signaled Razor to change places with him. The device immediately shut off.

"Aw, no way I'm mating him!" T-Bone blurted in outrage as he returned to stand near his partner and the device once more sounded off.

Feral reached up and shut it off violently just as upset.

"You think I'm jumping for joy here, SWAT Kat?!" Feral snarled reddening in rising fury. "The thought of being intimate with you is disgusting!"

"It doesn't matter what you want!" Callie suddenly shouted startling them to silence. "Look at you..."pointing at Feral, "You're glowing with anger and your eyes have changed!"

Everyone stared at Feral more closely and not without a little trepidation. His eyes were an eerie molten gold that glowed from within and his entire body was glowing softly. T-Bone felt a chill run down his spine seeing what Feral really was rather than the stubborn and difficult kat he'd been used to dealing with for years.

"You are a threat to this city, Commander!" Ms. Briggs said stiffly still shocked herself but hiding it.

"If that means you must mate with a SWAT Kat then that is what you will have to do. It's obvious to all present that you are a danger that must be dealt with immediately. Despite how unhappy you both are about the situation you will now get aboard the Turbokat, as will I, and we will go straight to the power plant." Callie ordered firmly and led the way to the jet followed reluctantly by Feral and the SWAT Kats.

It was a tense and unhappy flight to the power station. On their arrival, she led the way to the special facility for Sabrens. The kat in charge of the facility had been contacted by Ms. Briggs while in transit and was ready for them. He lead a furious Commander and fuming T-Bone to the special room. It was simply done. The light was dim, the bed large with fresh linens and big pillows, the floor was concrete and bare, along one wall was a standing closet, and next to it was a cleaning station with bottles of water on top of it.

"When you are finished, simply press this button and you will be let out until then you will be sealed in. There is water, a cleansing station and closet for your clothes. Any questions?" He asked politely trying to ignore the angry energy pouring off the pair. When both grimly shook their heads, he gestured them to enter and sealed the door after them.

Razor moved to the controls that monitored the amount of energy being expelled and sent into the electrical grid. As the facility manager joined him he made his concerns known.

"Feral is supposed to harbor tremendous energies. You might want to bring the backup stations on line and be ready to take a sudden overload so we don't blow the system." He warned.

"Alright, after all you helped invent this system. Jerry, turn on the backup systems and put them on stand by mode. I want you and Derick to stay by them in case we need to activate quickly." The manager order two other station attendants.

Meanwhile inside of the chamber...

Feral began pacing in an almost frantic manner. T-Bone had sat down on the bed for a moment to regain some of his composure. He eyed Feral warily and with growing concern. 'What the heck was the matter with him besides his reluctance to be with me?' He mused. Feral's pacing increased in speed and intensity.

Not certain what to do, T-Bone got up and approached the Commander. Feral ignored him, his eyes glowing more brightly and staring hard at the floor as he paced. Finally, T-Bone stepped in front of Feral who didn't stop at all and ran him down sending them both tumbling to the hard floor. Almost sobbing with frustration and some kind of inner torment, Feral pushed away from T-Bone sharply, got to his feet and began his pacing once more.

Shocked and now really concerned, his anger at his situation completely forgotten, T-Bone jumped to his feet and quickly reached out to Feral yanking him to the bed. Feral struggled but T-Bone wrapped himself around him until the Commander stopped struggling. T-Bone could feel him trembling.

"Crud, Feral what the heck's wrong with you besides the obvious? This is something we both have to do but you act like you'd rather die!" T-Bone said sharply trying to get Feral to focus on him.

"Yes! I'd rather die then be a slave!" Feral said his voice hoarse as he swallowed tears of anguish.

T-Bone gaped at him in shock, "Slave? What are you talking about?"

"What would you call being forced to have sex to survive...being forced to mate with someone who isn't your choice for the rest of your life... to bear kits when you aren't ready for them... knowing the first born is always another Sabren who will suffer your fate as well...how can that be anything but slavery?" His voice choked with pain and bitter sorrow. Horrified T-Bone released him but instead of getting up, Feral only turned his face away and buried it in the pillow on the bed.

T-Bone sat there stunned. He never dreamed Feral felt this badly about his fate. The Commander was in intense emotional pain and T-Bone was at a loss on how to help the Sabren cope with it. Gently he began to caress the now sobbing kat. The tiger tom felt sick and afraid. As he watched, Feral's body continued to glow brighter and brighter. He realized he had to do something quickly if he didn't want to die with Feral.

Taking firm action, he got up and pulled his clothes off and hung them up, naked except for his mask, he padded back to the bed and proceeded to strip Feral. The emotionally overwrought Sabren didn't notice at first until T-Bone tried to remove his shirt. Trembling, he snarled, clung to his shirt and curled up into a ball.

Grimacing, T-Bone let Feral keep his shirt for now and began a soothing massage over the parts he could reach. No matter how badly he wanted to hurry things along, he knew he had to take his time. One thing he noticed right away was the energy Feral was spilling made his own body hot and hard. It sent tingly erotic sensations from head to toe. At least he didn't have to try and get aroused. Now he only had to get Feral to join him.

As he massaged the curled body, he slipped his now rock hard cock under the tight buttocks to rub the clitoris just beyond the rectum and behind Feral's ballsack. After some minutes of that, Feral became very slick, shuddered and moaned but not in pain.

Feral tried to ignore what T-Bone was doing but it had been months since he'd had sex and it was a losing battle. Encouraged, T-Bone continued the slow thrusting motion gradually increasing as Feral's moans of pleasure filled the room and the big Sabren began moving back against him.

Not able to hold off any longer, T-Bone guided his stiff shaft into Feral's hot channel and began a rapid, hard thrusting. Feral cried out and rolled to his paws and knees. Staying firmly seated T-Bone followed him up. Using the new angle the tiger tom grabbed Feral's ruff in his teeth and held the big kats hips as he set a punishing pace. Feral pushed back with every one of T-Bone's thrusts and growled and howled frantically.

As he rose to orgasm, the intensity was actually painful. Too much energy was built up causing a strong rush through his body that hurt. He dug his claws into the bed as he came with a harsh scream, power roaring through him in a unstoppable wave. Nearly agonizing pleasure and pain poured through him and he kept screaming. T-Bone released Feral's neck and screamed as well as the raging energy spread from Feral to him in a torrent.

It was minutes not seconds before the wave of energy eased off and both kats collapsed to the bed heaving frantically for air. Feral whimpered, his body stinging him with bursts of residual energy and beginning heat. He gave a moan of distress as he realized the overburdening energy wave had initiated his heat cycle. He rolled to his side taking T-Bone with him.

With a sob of defeat, unable to fight his hormones, his inner muscles clamped down on T-Bone's cock. The tiger tom gasped at the pressure and the return of lust by more energy spikes from Feral. Trembling he began a slow thrusting motion as they lay on their sides. With tears instead of pleasure, the big Sabren surrendered to T-Bone's possession of his body.

T-Bone swallowed. His body was performing but his mind and heart was upset by Feral's display of anguish. It almost felt like rape as unwilling as Feral was toward their coupling. He wished more than anything that it was over already. He'd never been so miserable having sex before.

A scream from Feral warned him that a tidal wave of energy was about to hit again. He cried out and grit his teeth as he came pouring his seed into Feral and shuddering from the feeling of intense near painful tingling like ants crawling over his body as the power rushed through him.

Outside the chamber...

"Power input reaching critical levels. Switch to backups now!" Shouted the facility manager as the instruments indicated a massive wave of energy hitting the circuits. "Good lord will you look at the amount of amps?" He breathed in shock.

"Yeah! Well I did say it could be bad. Watch it! That backup has reached its limit. Start the next one!" Razor warned quickly as the technicians scrambled to get the backups to full service to handle the tremendous surge.

Finally, moments later the surge ended. The turbines whined as they took the surge to the storage batteries outside.

"We can't relax yet. The next surge could be just as strong." Razor said tensely as he continued to watch the monitors anxiously.

"Will the generators be able to keep up, Razor?" Callie asked nervously.

"It should Ms. Briggs. We'll stay on top of it. I just hope T-Bone is okay. I don't know how a kat can stand that much energy pouring through his body." Razor said worried for his partner.

"I don't know Razor. I hope they both get through this alright." Callie sighed as she stared at the sealed door.

"Be alert, another surge coming!" the manager said quickly. Only one of the backups was necessary when the surge subsided minutes later. "Well that one wasn't as bad. They should continue to decrease from now on." He said more calmly.

"I'll just stay a while longer to be sure." Razor said quietly. The manager just nodded. Callie took a seat and waited with them.
