When he opened his eyes he was met with the dim light of predawn. As Leo sat up Usagi shifted and stretched. \n\nAllowing himself a full yawn, Leo looked around the room to check on the children. All three were still slumbering on their mat, curled around each other for comfort and warmth. After the yawn, Leo was overcome with a full body shiver. Due to the openness of the land the nights and early mornings were cold, despite the hot days. \n\nGetting out of bed, Leo made his way outside to see if he could find a place to relieve himself. He spotted a pit toilet structure just beyond the tree line. He missed the simple luxuries of city living, like running water. Fortunately the pit was well tended and there wasn’t much of a smell. The dampness in the air and the smell of the decaying leaves were stronger. \n\nLeonardo then found a clearing near the house and started to move through his katas. The movements quickly warmed his body and sweat started to bead on his brow. By the time he started into the more complex forms, the children had come out of the house to watch. Umō and Kuroko sat in awe, their eyes wide as they followed Leo’s movements. \n\nKeeping his eyes on Leo, Kuroko leaned over to whisper to Jotaro, “He’s going to teach us how to do that?”\n\n“Yes,” Jotaro nodded and a wide smile spread across his face. “You are lucky. He is one of the greatest fighters who have ever lived, along with my uncle Usagi, of course.” \n\nKuroko tore his eyes from Leo and looked at Jotaro. “He’s not your father?”\n\n“No.” Jotaro’s ears dropped. “Why do people keep asking us that?”\n\n“Because you look just like him,” Kuroko answered flatly then turned to once again watch Leo. \n\nAfter breakfast they thanked Kenta and his wife for their hospitality and continued on their way. By midday they made it to a village where they rested and had lunch. As the children napped, Usagi showed Leonardo a few sword techniques and how to stand ready for battle. \n\nIt was different from what he was used to. Where ninja were taught to stay light on their feet and move around, the samurai were trained to stand their ground and take a wide stance so that it was harder to knock them over. Given the amount of armor they usually wore, it made since. They wouldn’t be able to move swiftly covered in gear. \n\nThey didn’t linger long in hopes of making it across the river before night fall. Recent rains had the river so flooded that the water was high enough to cover the bridge with about an inch of water. Sure footing was needed and they didn’t trust that the children would be able to cross without having their feet swept out from underneath them. Leonardo knew from experience that it didn’t take much to wash someone away. \n\nUsagi carried Jotaro across first, running fast through the swift moving waters. As soon as Usagi was safe on the other side, Leonardo lifted Umō and instructed Kuroko to stay put. It was a good thing that they didn’t allow the children to attempt the crossing. They wouldn’t have been able to move fast enough to beat the current. As soon as his foot touched the slicked wood, Leo could feel the pull. He had to angle his run in order to keep from getting off center. \n\nLeaving Umō with Usagi, Leo turned back for Kuroko. Fortunately the child did as he was told and didn’t try to cross the bridge on his own. After taking a few steading breaths, Leo set off across the bridge one last time. Kuroko held tight to Leo, his father’s swords pressed between them. \n\nWhen Leo reached the other side, they were all able to breathe a sigh of relief. He gave Kuroko a reassuring pat on the back before placing him on the ground. As they turned to leave, a large log slammed into the bridge, breaking it. They stood, watching in disbelief as pieces of the bridge were swept away by the fast moving waters. \n\n“It is fortunate that the bridge was not hit while we were crossing,” Usagi stated, his voice carrying a slight touch of fear. \n\n“Yes,” was all Leo was able to say in response. Kuroko and Umō both held tight to him and he ran his hands down the back of their heads for reassurance. That was too close for comfort. \n\nThat night they found a hallow tree large enough that the three children were able to fit inside. After a thorough inspection for any living creature, they made a little bed for the children and had them crawl inside along with their bags. \n\nKuroko laid his father’s swords down across the opening to help keep things from crawling in with them. It wasn’t perfect but it was something. The kids were asleep almost as soon as they lied down. Leonardo watched them sleep for a while and couldn’t help but feel blessed. \n\nUsagi came up behind Leo and pressed in close, kissing his neck. “We’re away from the main road and in a secluded spot. This is as good a place as any to continue some of your training.”\n\nWith a slight tremble, Leo felt his heart jump in anticipation. “I hope… this time… we can get to some of the more… advanced techniques.”\n\n“Absolutely,” Usagi chuckled as his hand dipped down between Leo’s legs. Kissing Leo’s neck, Usagi ran his fingers along Leo’s tail. “I need you to stand up and bend over. Use the tree for support.”\n\nLeo nodded and did as he was told. His stomach was in knots. Flirting, kissing and suggestive words came easy but when it came to actually doing anything Leonardo felt his confidence drain. It was unfamiliar territory for him and although he had seen porn he had no idea what to do or expect. \n\nUsagi loosened Leo’s kimono and then pulled down his hakama. “Relax, Leonardo,” Usagi soothed as he ran his hands along the back of Leo’s legs. “And try to keep those squeaks of yours to a minimal.”\n\nLeo let out a nervous chuckle. “I’ve had plenty of experience doing that. When you live in place where sound carries, the last thing you want to do is announce to everyone every time you pleasure yourself.” Leo gasped and lifted his tail as Usagi slid his fingers along the underside of it. The simple touch and the anticipation had Leo’s penis hardening. The last thing he wanted was to come off as over excited but he couldn’t help himself. His arousal quickly became too much to contain and his erection emerged dripping, from his tail. \n\nHolding his breath against the churr, Leo gripped the tree harder. Usagi’s hand moved to grab hold of Leo’s penis and with all the buildup and anticipation, Leo lost it. Embarrassed, he leaned his head against the tree. \n\n“That’s alright,” Usagi whispered. “I wasn’t much different my first time.” His hand moved back to the base of Leo’s penis and he circled his finger along the cloaca. “If you hadn’t finished, you would still be hard and I wouldn’t have been able to do this.”\n\nUsagi pushed his finger past the base of Leo’s penis and into his cloaca, eliciting a soft gasp of pain from the turtle. There was a cool sensation of something slick on Usagi’s finger. Leo had been so lost in his own nervousness that he hadn’t noticed when Usagi pulled out any form of lubricant. \n\n“Stay relaxed,” Usagi instructed once again, pushing his finger deeper inside. As he worked to stretch Leo, Usagi’s other hand played with the more sensitive parts of Leo’s penis. “I will admit,” Usagi confessed as he added a second finger. “It is likely that you will not get much pleasure out of this first time. Your body will need to adjust. However, the more we do it the less time it will take and you will start to enjoy it more. I wouldn’t be doing this otherwise.”\n\n“I understand,” Leo grunted, fighting the urge to push against Usagi’s intruding finger. \n\nUsagi shifted, pressing closer to Leo. Removing his fingers from Leo’s tail, Usagi soon replaced them with the tip of his penis. “Relax,” Usagi husked.\n\n“I’m trying,” Leo breathed. \n\n“I know it hurts and that you are nervous,” Usagi said as he caressed Leo’s shell. “Take a deep breath and let it out slowly.”\n\nLeo did as he was told and Usagi pressed past the muscle. Holding back the scream the caught in his throat, Leo leaned heavily against the tree. \n\nTo give Leo time to adjust, Usagi didn’t move as his hands roamed Leo’s body. He worked at the tense muscles in Leo’s shoulders and neck then trailed his fingers down along his bridges. Finally he moved them back down to work on Leo’s flaccid penis. \n\nEventually Leo’s body did adjust and the pain diminished. Usagi’s hands on his penis had it coming back to life and Leo was able to feel pleasure again. The presence of Usagi’s penis inside of him was a strange sensation but he wouldn’t call it unpleasant. In fact, the more time that passed the better it felt. \n\nWhen Leo moaned, Usagi let out a sigh of relief and then started to move. “There you go. Now it’s not so bad.”\n\n“Yeah,” Leo panted. “It’s good.”\n\nLeo’s body suddenly pulsated, causing Usagi to gasp and pause in is movements. “You’re so tight, I don’t know how much longer I’m going to last,” Usagi rasped out. \n\n“I’m okay,” Leo reassured him. \n\nLetting go of Leo’s penis, Usagi grabbed hold of his hips and started to thrust. With one arm still braced against the tree, Leo took over pumping his cock. With the pain gone, it started to feel amazing. He knew that he had just told Usagi that he was okay but part of him still hoped that Usagi would last long enough. \n\nAgain Leo found himself holding his breath against the churrs and his body shook with the effort to keep himself up. Usagi swelled inside of him as his movements started to stagger and Leo could feel Usagi’s seed fill him. Knowing that his body had brought Usagi to his peak had Leo finishing as well. \n\nUsagi pulled out and sat back on his feet as Leo crumpled to the ground. They both sat panting as their bodies recovered from the exertion. As the numb bliss faded the pain reasserted itself, causing Leo to shift in discomfort. \n\n“You will still feel it in the morning,” Usagi informed him. “Again, it is something that your body will eventually grow accustomed to.”\n\n“Something tells me that it is worth it,” Leo managed to chuckle. He turned to look at Usagi. “It wasn’t much of an orgasm but I did manage to have one.”\n\n“Good,” Usagi said as he got to his feet. “I promise. It will get better in time.” He moved over to Leo and leaned down for a soft kiss. “Are you okay?” When Leo nodded in response Usagi kissed him again before moving off to pull is clothes back on. \n\nOnce they were dressed they settled against the tree on either side of the opening. Leo rested his swords in the crook of his arm and willed his body to relax enough to sleep but to also stay alert. He had to admit that it was becoming easier to do with each passing day. \n\nThe rest of the week passed without incident. During that week, Leo’s body had learned to adjust quickly to Usagi. The pain eased faster, the intensity of his orgasm increased and the pain afterwards no longer lingered. Best of all, Leonardo was no longer nervous and knew what he needed to do to please Usagi. \n\nWhen the day had come to return Jotaro to his home, it was bitter sweet. As they approached Usagi’s home village, Jotaro’s excitement over being home started to show. He pointed out different places of interest as the passed, like the locations of his favorite trees to climb. But at the same time they could tell that he was sad that he was going to have to say goodbye to Usagi. \n\nThe look on the face of the first of the villager who came into view had Leo feeling a sense of foreboding. Instead of greeting them, the villager turned and ran into the village. Usagi’s ears fell and his pace slowed. Something was wrong. \n\nThe villager returned with another one in tow. Grabbing hold of Jotaro’s hand, Usagi once again increased his pacing. “Ichiro, it is good to see you have recovered. I have returned with Jotaro, as promised. He is excited to see his parents. Are Kenichi and Mariko at home?”\n\nIchiro’s ears were down as he addressed Usagi. “We tried to send you a message.”\n\n“I got no message.” Usagi reached down and picked up Jotaro as soon as they were close enough to Ichiro to stop. “What has happened?”\n\nIchiro swallowed hard and looked at the other villager before answering. He could not keep eye contact with Usagi. “Kenichi and Mariko did not survive their injuries. They died about a month after you left, from an infection.”\n\n“They’re dead,” Usagi repeated. His voice was tight. Laying his head on Usagi’s shoulder, Jotaro started to sob quietly and Usagi’s hand came up to caress the young bunny’s head. \n\n“Yes,” Ichiro nodded. “I have taken over as magistrate. As my fist duty I sent my own son to find you. He returned only a few weeks ago, unable to deliver his message.”\n\n“I understand,” Usagi said, nodding his head. “Where are they buried?”\n\n“They are buried near your father, up on the hill,” Ichiro answered, pointing them in the right direction. “You will find that there are several new graves up there. Our village suffered and we have yet to fully recover. Our resources are still limited. We can scarcely feed ourselves.”\n\n“Thank you,” Usagi bowed to him. “We will go pay our respects and move on.”\n\n“If you need a place to stay for the night…,” Ichiro offered. \n\nUsagi shook his head. “You said that your resources are limited. We will not stay and burden the town further. We will travel to my old masters land and see how he has fared.”\n\n“If you are speaking of Katsuichi, he is well and has returned, along with his student, to his home,” Ichiro informed them. “I believe that their small garden is doing well.”\n\n“Thank you,” Usagi bowed again. \n\n“Would you like someone to escort you to the graves?” Ichiro asked. \n\n“No,” Usagi shook his head. “Thank you but I’m sure we will be able to manage. I remember where my father is buried.”\n\nLeonardo followed as Usagi led the way up the hill. There were several new grave markers, showing the devastating effect of the quake. Some graves had fresh flowers resting against the markers. When Usagi found the grave markers of Kenichi and Mariko he dropped to his knees and placed Jotaro down. \n\nJotaro lied down on his mother’s grave and openly cried. “I want to come home. I want to be with you.” As Jotaro sobbed, Kuroko and Umō lied down next to him, offering their comfort and understanding. Usagi bowed forward, placing his head on his hands as he mumbled a prayer. \n\nLeonardo knelt down next to Usagi and bowed his head. He had never met Mariko but he knew that Usagi loved her deeply. Having never suffered such a loss, Leo could only imagine the pain Usagi was feeling. \n\nWhen Usagi sat up, Leonardo did as well. They allowed Jotaro time to calm himself and then Usagi bowed once more with Jotaro to say their final goodbyes to Kenichi. \n\n“I was never able to thank you,” Usagi whispered. “Although we were rivals… you never let that get in the way of….” Usagi looked at Jotaro, who was saying his own silent prayer to the one he called ‘father’. Usagi ran his hand down Jotaro’s back. “It was a selfless act. Jotaro was blessed to have you for a father. Thank you.”\n\nJotaro sat up and wiped the tears from his eyes as he looked up at Usagi. “What do we do now?”\n\n“We will figure something out,” Usagi answered, cupping Jotaro’s cheek. “For now we will continue on our way to my master Katsuichi’s home. It isn’t far and we should make it before sunset.”\n\nWith a slight nod, Jotaro reached out to Usagi. Without hesitation, Usagi lifted Jotaro and carried him away from the graves. They passed by the village and continued on their way back down to the path. There were no words Leo could say that would ease their pain, nothing he could do to help. All he could do was follow and be there for his friend. \n", "writing_bbcode_parsed": "Travels

Leo nodded and did as he was told. His stomach was in knots. Flirting, kissing and suggestive words came easy but when it came to actually doing anything Leonardo felt his confidence drain. It was unfamiliar territory for him and although he had seen porn he had no idea what to do or expect.

Usagi loosened Leo’s kimono and then pulled down his hakama. “Relax, Leonardo,” Usagi soothed as he ran his hands along the back of Leo’s legs. “And try to keep those squeaks of yours to a minimal.”

Leo let out a nervous chuckle. “I’ve had plenty of experience doing that. When you live in place where sound carries, the last thing you want to do is announce to everyone every time you pleasure yourself.” Leo gasped and lifted his tail as Usagi slid his fingers along the underside of it. The simple touch and the anticipation had Leo’s penis hardening. The last thing he wanted was to come off as over excited but he couldn’t help himself. His arousal quickly became too much to contain and his erection emerged dripping, from his tail.

Holding his breath against the churr, Leo gripped the tree harder. Usagi’s hand moved to grab hold of Leo’s penis and with all the buildup and anticipation, Leo lost it. Embarrassed, he leaned his head against the tree.

“That’s alright,” Usagi whispered. “I wasn’t much different my first time.” His hand moved back to the base of Leo’s penis and he circled his finger along the cloaca. “If you hadn’t finished, you would still be hard and I wouldn’t have been able to do this.”

Usagi pushed his finger past the base of Leo’s penis and into his cloaca, eliciting a soft gasp of pain from the turtle. There was a cool sensation of something slick on Usagi’s finger. Leo had been so lost in his own nervousness that he hadn’t noticed when Usagi pulled out any form of lubricant.

“Stay relaxed,” Usagi instructed once again, pushing his finger deeper inside. As he worked to stretch Leo, Usagi’s other hand played with the more sensitive parts of Leo’s penis. “I will admit,” Usagi confessed as he added a second finger. “It is likely that you will not get much pleasure out of this first time. Your body will need to adjust. However, the more we do it the less time it will take and you will start to enjoy it more. I wouldn’t be doing this otherwise.”

“I understand,” Leo grunted, fighting the urge to push against Usagi’s intruding finger.

Usagi shifted, pressing closer to Leo. Removing his fingers from Leo’s tail, Usagi soon replaced them with the tip of his penis. “Relax,” Usagi husked.

“I’m trying,” Leo breathed.

“I know it hurts and that you are nervous,” Usagi said as he caressed Leo’s shell. “Take a deep breath and let it out slowly.”

Leo did as he was told and Usagi pressed past the muscle. Holding back the scream the caught in his throat, Leo leaned heavily against the tree.  

To give Leo time to adjust, Usagi didn’t move as his hands roamed Leo’s body. He worked at the tense muscles in Leo’s shoulders and neck then trailed his fingers down along his bridges. Finally he moved them back down to work on Leo’s flaccid penis.

Eventually Leo’s body did adjust and the pain diminished. Usagi’s hands on his penis had it coming back to life and Leo was able to feel pleasure again. The presence of Usagi’s penis inside of him was a strange sensation but he wouldn’t call it unpleasant. In fact, the more time that passed the better it felt.

When Leo moaned, Usagi let out a sigh of relief and then started to move. “There you go. Now it’s not so bad.”

“Yeah,” Leo panted. “It’s good.”

Leo’s body suddenly pulsated, causing Usagi to gasp and pause in is movements. “You’re so tight, I don’t know how much longer I’m going to last,” Usagi rasped out.

“I’m okay,” Leo reassured him.

Letting go of Leo’s penis, Usagi grabbed hold of his hips and started to thrust. With one arm still braced against the tree, Leo took over pumping his cock. With the pain gone, it started to feel amazing. He knew that he had just told Usagi that he was okay but part of him still hoped that Usagi would last long enough.

Again Leo found himself holding his breath against the churrs and his body shook with the effort to keep himself up. Usagi swelled inside of him as his movements started to stagger and Leo could feel Usagi’s seed fill him. Knowing that his body had brought Usagi to his peak had Leo finishing as well.

Usagi pulled out and sat back on his feet as Leo crumpled to the ground. They both sat panting as their bodies recovered from the exertion. As the numb bliss faded the pain reasserted itself, causing Leo to shift in discomfort.

“You will still feel it in the morning,” Usagi informed him. “Again, it is something that your body will eventually grow accustomed to.”

“Something tells me that it is worth it,” Leo managed to chuckle. He turned to look at Usagi. “It wasn’t much of an orgasm but I did manage to have one.”

“Good,” Usagi said as he got to his feet. “I promise. It will get better in time.” He moved over to Leo and leaned down for a soft kiss. “Are you okay?” When Leo nodded in response Usagi kissed him again before moving off to pull is clothes back on.

Once they were dressed they settled against the tree on either side of the opening. Leo rested his swords in the crook of his arm and willed his body to relax enough to sleep but to also stay alert. He had to admit that it was becoming easier to do with each passing day.

The rest of the week passed without incident. During that week, Leo’s body had learned to adjust quickly to Usagi. The pain eased faster, the intensity of his orgasm increased and the pain afterwards no longer lingered. Best of all, Leonardo was no longer nervous and knew what he needed to do to please Usagi.

When the day had come to return Jotaro to his home, it was bitter sweet. As they approached Usagi’s home village, Jotaro’s excitement over being home started to show. He pointed out different places of interest as the passed, like the locations of his favorite trees to climb. But at the same time they could tell that he was sad that he was going to have to say goodbye to Usagi.

The look on the face of the first of the villager who came into view had Leo feeling a sense of foreboding. Instead of greeting them, the villager turned and ran into the village. Usagi’s ears fell and his pace slowed. Something was wrong.

The villager returned with another one in tow. Grabbing hold of Jotaro’s hand, Usagi once again increased his pacing. “Ichiro, it is good to see you have recovered. I have returned with Jotaro, as promised. He is excited to see his parents. Are Kenichi and Mariko at home?”

Ichiro’s ears were down as he addressed Usagi. “We tried to send you a message.”

“I got no message.” Usagi reached down and picked up Jotaro as soon as they were close enough to Ichiro to stop. “What has happened?”

Ichiro swallowed hard and looked at the other villager before answering. He could not keep eye contact with Usagi. “Kenichi and Mariko did not survive their injuries. They died about a month after you left, from an infection.”

“They’re dead,” Usagi repeated. His voice was tight. Laying his head on Usagi’s shoulder, Jotaro started to sob quietly and Usagi’s hand came up to caress the young bunny’s head.

“Yes,” Ichiro nodded. “I have taken over as magistrate. As my fist duty I sent my own son to find you. He returned only a few weeks ago, unable to deliver his message.”

“I understand,” Usagi said, nodding his head. “Where are they buried?”

“They are buried near your father, up on the hill,” Ichiro answered, pointing them in the right direction. “You will find that there are several new graves up there. Our village suffered and we have yet to fully recover. Our resources are still limited. We can scarcely feed ourselves.”

“Thank you,” Usagi bowed to him. “We will go pay our respects and move on.”

“If you need a place to stay for the night…,” Ichiro offered.  

Usagi shook his head. “You said that your resources are limited. We will not stay and burden the town further. We will travel to my old masters land and see how he has fared.”

“If you are speaking of Katsuichi, he is well and has returned, along with his student, to his home,” Ichiro informed them. “I believe that their small garden is doing well.”

“Thank you,” Usagi bowed again.

“Would you like someone to escort you to the graves?” Ichiro asked.

“No,” Usagi shook his head. “Thank you but I’m sure we will be able to manage. I remember where my father is buried.”

Leonardo followed as Usagi led the way up the hill. There were several new grave markers, showing the devastating effect of the quake. Some graves had fresh flowers resting against the markers. When Usagi found the grave markers of Kenichi and Mariko he dropped to his knees and placed Jotaro down.

Jotaro lied down on his mother’s grave and openly cried. “I want to come home. I want to be with you.” As Jotaro sobbed, Kuroko and Umō lied down next to him, offering their comfort and understanding. Usagi bowed forward, placing his head on his hands as he mumbled a prayer.

Leonardo knelt down next to Usagi and bowed his head. He had never met Mariko but he knew that Usagi loved her deeply. Having never suffered such a loss, Leo could only imagine the pain Usagi was feeling.  

When Usagi sat up, Leonardo did as well. They allowed Jotaro time to calm himself and then Usagi bowed once more with Jotaro to say their final goodbyes to Kenichi.  

“I was never able to thank you,” Usagi whispered. “Although we were rivals… you never let that get in the way of….” Usagi looked at Jotaro, who was saying his own silent prayer to the one he called ‘father’. Usagi ran his hand down Jotaro’s back. “It was a selfless act. Jotaro was blessed to have you for a father. Thank you.”

Jotaro sat up and wiped the tears from his eyes as he looked up at Usagi. “What do we do now?”

“We will figure something out,” Usagi answered, cupping Jotaro’s cheek. “For now we will continue on our way to my master Katsuichi’s home. It isn’t far and we should make it before sunset.”

With a slight nod, Jotaro reached out to Usagi. Without hesitation, Usagi lifted Jotaro and carried him away from the graves. They passed by the village and continued on their way back down to the path. There were no words Leo could say that would ease their pain, nothing he could do to help. All he could do was follow and be there for his friend.
