Read at your own risk.\n*****\n\nMeanwhile Hector was still being carried by Redemptionheart and Cheer Bear through the Kingdom of Caring until they reached a spot where the doctor created a rainbow strip with the Stare and tied it around the boy's head, covering his eyes.\n- Not! Get it out of me! - he shouted, shaking his head.\n- I'm sorry, little boy, but you can't know where the secret hiding place is - Redemption said sweetly, nuzzling noses with him - And no one will help you, as everyone is being watched by the founders in the Hall of Hearts.\n- Oh, I can't wait to sink my claws back into your soles, Hector - the pink bear said cheerfully - And this time I will not care if you wet your pants, I will continue to torment you for a long time, until you are powerless and sweaty from head to toe.\n- That's it Cheer, his feet are for you to tickle and provoke without fear of reprisal. We do not need to worry about any consequences; he's ours to be tortured with tickles forever.\nThe pink bear smiled with happiness as she slowly rubbed the boy's exposed soles in her furry belly, up and down.\n- No, please, I beg you! Let me go! - he shouted desperately, when he felt something soft and furry rubbing his feet - No! What is it? Stohohohop!\n- Stop? But we have not even started yet! - said the medical bear maliciously - You're so cute, your arms will be tied up over your head so they do not get in my way when I sink my claws into your armpits, and you have no chance to defend yourself.\n- Not to mention that your ankles will be stuck in strong metal restraints so you can not kick or resist - added the vain pink bear with a giggle, rubbing his feet on her belly - And your toes will be tied so I can rub them without you curling them around. Coochie coo!\n- Nohohoho, plehehehease, why do yohohohou wahahahant to tohohohorture me agahahahain? - Hector asked through laughter, trying to hide his feet and instinctively wrapping his arms to protect his armpits - I dihihihid nohohohot do ahahanythihihing wrohohohong! I thohohought yohohohou two wehehehere cohohohool! Stahahahap!\nBut the bears did not attend to his requests, and he just remained sealed in his rainbow cocoon. At this point, the two Care Bears stopped, and Redemption quickly blindfolded Cheer so the young bear could not see where the secret hiding door was, never to reveal her location, even if she was captured and tortured. Again they took Hector on they lap and walked for a few moments, until the boy heard a metallic sound as if a door were opening.\nAlthough the Brazilian boy could not see anything, he felt that they were now walking down a long staircase, and also during this time he continued to feel his feet being gently rubbed against Cheer's furry belly, which made him giggle non-stop.\nSuddenly they stopped, and Hector felt himself positioned on a cushioned surface and his \"cocoon\" began to be broken. The boy tried very hard to escape, but was quickly seized by his wrists and felt his arms raised above his head, his wrists being handcuffed in metal restraints. The same thing happened to his ankles, and in a matter of seconds he was completely dominated and helpless. Finally, he heard his shirt being torn, and his trunk exposed to be tickled by the two bears.\n- Nohohoho, stohohohop it! Plehehehease stohohop! Lehehehet mehehehe gohohoho! - the boy pleaded almost crying as he felt a single sharp object sink into his armpits and tickle up and down. He also felt his toes being tied in cold metal tongs, preventing him from rolling them up - Stohohohop! Yohohou cahahahan nohohohot do thihihis to mehehehe! Lehehehet me gohohoho!\n- Oh yes, of course we can - he heard Redemptionheart speak in a provocative tone scratching beneath his chin - Your armpits and your feet are at our disposal to be provoked. Coochie coo!\n- Nohohohot! Nohohohot thahahat, get yohohohour hahahands off mehehehe! - he cried, closing his eyes, feeling that his defenseless feet were also beginning to be scratched, and he swung his hips trying to resist - Enohohohough! Thihihis is tohohohorture! Do nohohohot tihihihickle mehehehehe!\n- We know its torture, so you'll be tickled to exhaustion! - said the medical bear, amused to scratch beneath the boy's arms, knowing that he could not defend himself.\n- Stohohohop! Hehehelp! Sohohomebohohody hehehelp me!\nHector screamed desperately, feeling his face blush with embarrassment at the situation. His heart pounded as he struggled to pull his legs and arms, wanting to curl up in a fetal position to protect armpits and feet. He felt a claw scratching the heels slightly in circles while his soles and toes were gently rubbed, as were the dimples of his armpits.\n- No one's going to help you, sweet little Brazilian - said the pink bear in a childish tone, scratching the boy's insteps lightly - We'll tickle you forever, and Care Bear Family will hear each of your laughter.\nHector shook his head from side to side, still trying to move his hips. Then he felt something scratching slightly from the front of his toes, causing as much tickling of the skin.\n- Stohohohop! My feheheheet, I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it! - he begged as he felt the claws poking right under his toes - Stop, stahahahap! I beheheheg!\nBut his arguments were not heard by the two carebears, who continued tickling his body mercilessly, making him feel completely defenseless, with sweat starting to form on his forehead. He did not know what was worse, if it was to be without seeing anything, if it was not being able to defend himself, or if it was to have his most sensitive points stimulated that way.\n- Nohohoho, I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it! Enohohohough! - he begged again, even though he knew it would not stop his torturers - Plehehehease, why are yohohohou dohohohoing thihihis to mehehehe?\n- Because we want to - said Cheer Bear with a giggle - Besides, you're such a sweet boy... Your skin is so sensitive, your soft feet look so cute, and your navel jumps in the belly every time you laugh. Why would we stop then, cute Brazilian?\nAnd then he felt a single claw caressing each side of his arms, zigzagging up and down. Hector closed his hands and tried to pull his arms, with no result. He also felt his feet becoming more sensitive to tickling, while the claws up and down on his soles. And in front of all those compliments he felt a blush of shame.\n- Stohohohop, I feheheheel ashahahamed! Stahahahap! My feheheheet! I wahahahant to cuhuhuhurl my tohohohoes!\nThe boy heard only a few malicious giggles from Cheer and Redemption as he felt the furry fingers with pointed claws sink into his armpits with pleasure. He felt completely embarrassed at the treatment, especially when one of the little bears nuzzled at him. With each new touch or scratch in his body, he felt more and more wanting to laugh as tears formed in his closed eyes.\n- Oh, so cute and helpless. Coochie coo! - Cheer said provocatively - You really are a little boy sensitive to tickling...\nHector felt the claws poking and clawing his arms up and down faster as his feet were slowly caressed and someone nuzzle noses with him as well as starting to give kisses to his cheeks.\n- Stohohohop thihihis! Stohohohop! - he shouted, trying to avoid those kisses and nuzzles in his nose as he felt more and more embarrassed and sensitive, almost feeling each hair of the furry paws touching his armpits or feet - Hehehelp! Stohohohop, I cahahahan nohohohot tahahahake it ahahanymohohore!\n- You can't resist little Brazilian - Redemption snarled as a single claw circled in the center of each boy's armpit.\nAt that moment he felt something feathery touching between his toes, causing Hector to react by trying to move his sensitive feet. He also felt the claws scratching his armpits, circling around the dimples of the armpits, provoking as much of the stimuli as possible.\n- Stohohohop tohohouchihihing my ahaharmpihihits! Nohohoho, my feheheheet! Plehehehease, lehehehet me gohohoho! - he begged again, feeling every part of his body increasingly sensitive, especially since he was already sweating from head to toe - I cahahahan nohohohot take it ahahanymohohore! Stohohohop! Get yohohohour hahahands off mehehehe, plehehehease! My feheheheet, my armpihihihits! Hehehelp!\nBut his pleas were not met, and he just felt even more tickling concentrating in front of his toes, in addition to his arms continuing to be tickled quickly up and down as the nuzzling noses continued and his cheeks kissed. So many tickles together made him start to feel his bladder filled, and he instinctively tightened his legs.\n- Plehehehease, I'm gohohohoing to wehehehet my pahahahants! Stohohohop! - Hector asked desperately, unable to defend himself - My feheheheet, I neheheheed to cuhuhuhurl my tohohohoes!\nThe boy heard the laughter of the two carebears again and felt his face blush with embarrassment as he laughed desperately, feeling that he could not bear it any longer. Then a dark spot appeared on the front of his shorts as the scent of urine rose in the air.\n- Oh, it looks like the little boy got wet - Redemption said in a childish tone - I thought you could last longer. But now you're sure to feel even more sensitive and you'll laugh a lot more, especially when your punishment partner arrives... And he's just the most powerful and ticklish bear of Care Bear Family\nSaying this, she stopped tickling the boy's belly and nuzzling noses with him, making him blush even more.\n- Stohohohop! I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it ahahanymohohore! - Hector shouted desperately, shaking his head from side to side - Plehehehease stohohop tihihihickling me! I beheheheg!\n- No way, now you're all ours - Redemption said as she sank her claws even deeper into the boy's armpits, scratching up and down to watch the prisoner's reactions.\n- It's time for you to suffer, cute little Brazilian - Cheer Bear declared maliciously as she rubbed the quill into Hector's big toes, poking at the front and the top.\n- Nohohohot! Stohohohop! Plehehehease! - he shouted through laughter, fighting futilely against his restraints and not wanting to be tortured again for hours and hours as on another occasion - Hehehelp! I dohohoho whahahatever yohohohou wahahahant!\n- So keep laughing nonstop, cute little boy - the doctor concluded as she sank her claws further into Hector's armpits, and Cheer used her own claws to provoke the full extent of the soles of the little prisoner's feet, who were increasingly desperate to have no defense, and very afraid that it would last forever.\n*****\nNoble Heart and True Heart quickly entered the house, with malicious expressions, finding Shimmers still sitting and tied in the same place, the bear had a low head and a sad face.\n- Oh, it looks like our cub is still here - the horse taunted, scratching the chin of his adopted son - I'm glad you waited for our return.\n- Guess what we did with your friends, Champ and Confidence? - asked the female bear maliciously, with a wink, also scratching the son's chin.\n- Hey! Stop it! - said Shimmers, shaking his head from side to side, trying to avoid tickling, before looking worriedly at his parents - What have you done to them?\n- What do you think we did? - asked Noble Heart, still scratching the bear's chin - The only thing we can do with a traitor and a disturber, that is, they were expelled from the Family and they will forever bear the marks of their crimes.\nShimmers stared gaping at Noble and then at True as if he could not believe it, especially in face of the quiet and Machiavellian expressions his parents had on the face, quite different from the loving and attentive look they usually had for bears and cousins.\n- Yes, we've thrown them out of Care Bear Family forever - the female bear confirmed with a smirk - They got what they deserved. Now, as for you... We also choose the punishment you deserve.\n- PP-Please do not drive me away! - the swordsman whimpered with trembling lips - I did not do anything wrong, please!\n- Oh, are you afraid of being expelled? - asked the patriarch gently, before shifting to Shimmers' feet and beginning to tickle his toes - Do you think we would do that to you, my cub?\n- We would never have the guts to do this to you, my little dear - added the matriarch as she began to scratch the bear's armpits quickly - Coochie coo! You are our special son, and we love you very much.\n- Hey! Nohohoho! Stohohohop! - the bear laughed trying to protect his armpits.\n- That's right, I would never do that to you, Shimmers - Noble Heart said with a broad smile, continuing to rub the soles and toes of the bear - I love you, and I would never kick you out of Care Bear Family. Besides, you're so cute and have such sensitive feet... Coochie coo!\n- Champ and Confidence deserved to be expelled because they created confusion, but that was not your case, my little cub - the female bear said as she quickly provoked the swordsman's armpits - You did not know what they were doing, so you're innocent... Or almost.\n- Nohohoho, plehehehease! - Shimmers begged as he felt his cheeks flush because of those teasing and tickling - Whahahahat do yohohohou mehehehean by \"ahahahalmost\"?\n- Well... You knew Confidence's secret, knew she had quarreled with Cheer Bear, and you did not tell us - explained the horse, using a single finger to tickle from the heel cushions to the tip of the bear's toes - So, even though you were not an accomplice, you omitted information that was important to us.\n- Then we decide you and Hector need to have a lesson - the matriarch said calmly, kneading the armpits of her foster child - Since you two are very handsome and sensitive, you two will have to endure 24 hours of tickling torture and no mercy.\n- Hahaha! Twehehehenty fohohohour hohohohours?!? - Shimmers exclaimed, his eyes wide with concern as he heard this, his cheeks flush with humiliation and he tried to close his toes - Nohohoho! Sohohohorry! I'll tehehehell yohohohou nehehehext tihihihime!\n- Ah, of course you will say, especially after your punishment - Noble Heart commented maliciously, before untying the bear's feet from the stool where they were trapped but still keeping their ankles tied together - After this punishment, you will learn once and for all how to be a good little bear and not try to challenge your parents.\n- And as you like to be tickled, you'll certainly have a lot of fun with that punishment - True Heart added before gagging the mouth and blindfolding the swordsman's eyes - Sorry, son, but you will not see where we're taking him or you can ask for help. All set, Noble?\n- Yes, come on - and the patriarch grabbed Shimmers by the arms while the matriarch grabbed him by the legs to take him away.\nThe prisoner began to breathe quickly, trying to protest and get rid of his bonds without success, not being able to believe that his punishment would be to be tickled. Again he fussed around trying to break the rainbow strings, but only True Heart could do it because she was the one who made them with the Stare.\n- Stop moving so much, Shimmers - said the horse maliciously as he realized the bear was trying to break free - Otherwise we will be forced to take more drastic measures.\n- As if we were not going to do that - commented the female bear with a giggle - Now tell me Shimmers, what do you think of tickling under your arms?\nTo True Heart's delight, the bear's response to that question, made in a sugary, malicious tone, was only to move even more violently from side to side, screaming in his muffled voice through the gag, begging clearly for the matriarch not to tickle him, as he whimpered trying to get rid of his bonds.\n- Ah, as I imagined, you die of tickling your armpits - she said with a smile, pretending not to understand the swordsman's reactions - I already knew you would love this idea, so do not worry, because we'll make sure you feel a lot of tickling under your arms. We will stimulate the entire area of your armpits, scraping and scrubbing quickly and methodically without a moment's rest. Also, if we find that your sensitivity is diminishing, we will use massage oil on your skin to make it feel sensitive again.\n- And that's not all, you'll also have a good tickling massage on your feet, so you have two points of your body stimulated at the same time - Noble Heart added quietly - We will tickle the full extent of your soles, your cushions and your toes, using claws, feathers, our own hairy paws and other little things that Redemption has provided.\n- And you'll laugh and have fun like never before, my cub. You're going to beg so we can let you curl your toes, wiggle your arms or even walk away, but we will not let you do that. Coochie coo!\n- Nnnnphmmmmfff! - Shimmers begged as he felt his cheeks redden again, closing his toes when he heard all this, and continuing to fight all the way, unable to break the bonds.\n- That's right, my cub, keep trying to fight, that only makes me even more excited to tickle you - the female bear said slowly - I will pay special attention to your armpits, and I am sure that after that, you will never lie to Noble or to me again.\nSaying this, the three of them reached the secret hiding place, and Shimmers heard a door open, at the same time the sound of a youthful laugh came to his ears. It was the voice of Hector, who was laughing desperately. The bear swallowed hard as he felt they were coming down a ladder before he was laid on something soft.\nQuickly, the two founders untied the swordsman's ankles and secured his right leg, trapping his ankle in metal restraints. So they did the same with the left leg, despite Shimmers' efforts to stop them from holding his leg. Suddenly, he felt that his wrists were also untied, and two firm hands gripped his arms and pulled them up before pinning them in metal cuffs. He had his body stretched and his armpits exposed while he was being held that way. It was when someone tore the cloth off his eyes, making it blink a few times because of the light.\n- And so, my little cub, are you comfortable? - True Heart questioned maliciously, her face inches from the bear's eyes.\nThe swordsman looked around desperately. He was in a cave, dug in the very cloud, and his wrists were fastened in thick metal buckles, while his ankles were stuck in a set of metal restraints as well. Looking sideways, he saw Hector trapped the same way, with no shirt and shoes, with Redemptionheart and Cheer Bear tickling the boy's armpits and feet.\nHector continued to laugh desperately, as he watched as Nobleheart and Trueheart entered the room carrying Shimmers in their lap, tied, blindfolded eyes and mouth gagged. Both the Brazilian boy and the swordsman exchanged desperate glances.\n- Enohohohough! Why are yohohohou tohohorturihihing us lihihihike thihihis? - Hector asked sweating from head to toe - I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand to feheheheel tihihicklihihish! Stohohohop!\n- But of course you can handle it, because we will not stop - said the medical bear with a broad smile, sinking her claws into the boy's armpits - And that's true for Shimmers too, is not it, True?\nThe matriarch just winked, before rubbing her fingers lightly into the swordsman's belly as Noble snatched his gag.\n- Nohohoho, plehehehease do nohohohot tihihihickle mehehehe! – Shimmers pleaded with a laugh as Noble turned a crank on the wall that seemed to pull the bear's arms even more and made his armpits even more vulnerable. And although that was not painful, it certainly was not comfortable either. In addition, there were several mechanical hands in place, seeming just waiting for a command to start the tormenting tickles.\nRedemption continued tickling Hector's underarms up and down, glancing happily at his face and enjoying the sensation of tickling the young prisoner's armpits, especially as he moved from side to side. Meanwhile Cheer, after sitting on her own ankles, continued tickling the boy's toes, paying special attention to the right big toe to which she scratched calmly, since there was no chance of the boy getting to twist or curl his toes.\nAt least Shimmers could still move his toes, but he noticed that there were small metal restraints just behind his toes, ready to be closed and keeping them still and apart, leaving his feet exposed and helpless.\n- Oh, do not worry, for now we will not catch your toes - said Trueheart with a small smile, nuzzling noses with Shimmers as she noticed his worried gaze - However, these mechanical hands will take care of your armpits and feet mercilessly, and I can control the intensity and speed with which they will tickle. Besides... Well... Why do not you tell him, Noble Heart?\nThe horse slowly approached his son and tickled his belly with a broad smile on the lips.\n- We've installed a microphone in this room, and we've attached it to the Kingdom of Caring's emergency loudspeakers so everyone can hear you and Hector laughing and begging you not to be tickled - he said maliciously, rubbing his paw in the swordsman's navel - By the way, they are already listening to us right now, including their beloved Wish Bear. Oh, how she must be worried about you... But I want her, and everyone else, to learn once and for all who the leaders of Care Bear Family are, and that any of them who disobey me or Trueheart, by doing something wrong, it will suffer truly sensible consequences.\n- Nohohoho, plehehehease, Truhuhue! Nohohohoble! - Shimmers shouted nervously as he stared at the couple of founders and blushed at the tease in his nose, feeling his willpower begin to fade - I dohohoho nohohohot wahahahant to be tihihihickled!\n- Stohohohop, my feheheheet! - Hector also shouted, trying again to curl his toes - My feheheheet are sehehensitihihive, I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it!\nRedemptionheart Bear licked the tears on Hector's face, feverishly continuing to tickle his armpits while Cheer giggled amusingly tickling the big toe right using the other claws to scratch the soles up and down.\n- Coochie coo, there's no turning back now, you'll feel a lot of tickling - Trueheart told Shimmers before pushing a button that made the mechanical hands start to clench, scratching and rubbing the bear's feet - While the mechanical hands tickle your feet, I will take care of your armpits as well as Redemption is doing with Hector.\nQuickly the matriarch placed furry gloves with claws at her fingertips, and began to scratch lightly under the swordsman's arms, up and down, as the mechanical hands explored the region of the heart cushions on the heels of the bear.\n- Nohohohoho! - Shimmers shouted desperately, trying to move.\nNobleheart smiled at the reaction of the foster child, at the same time that he cast an amused glance at Hector, seeing how much the boy was already sweating by being tickled by the two carebears.\n- I hope you two have a lot of fun - the patriarch said with a wicked wink - Now I need to go back to the others, to watch them suffer as they hear you two being ruthlessly tickled. See you later, my dear little cubs.\nAnd he withdrew without looking back, feeling no pain at the suffering of the Shimmers or Hector, and delighting in knowing that he was doing something bad for someone for the first time in his life.\n*****\nAlthough Longbow Wolf was not a very feminine type, and she lived in a lost cave in the forests of North America, yet she always kept her house clean and tidy, as well as decorating the corners with colorful flower pots and knowing how to cook a good dinner with roots and fruits of the trees. And that night she had an even greater reason to perfect the food, since she was receiving the visit from Sky-Heart Bear.\nIn fact, the female wolf had already agreed that the bear would visit her that night for both to talk, and for her to communicate her decision whether or not to live in the Kingdom of Caring. But they did not allude to this matter immediately, because first the two talked about what had been the week, and then had dinner in silence mashed potatoes with lettuce salad, with walnut cake as dessert.\n- Your cake was delicious, Longbow - Sky-Heart said with a little smile, rubbing his belly in a sign of contentment - With whom did you learn the recipe? Certainly not been with Grams Bear during the Caring Fair...\n- No, I have a cookbook, and I also like to cook - Longbow said with a giggle - I was going to make a fish stew in the white sauce, but I do not know if you're a vegetarian like the other members of Care Bear Family.\n- Well... I'm not a vegetarian by choice, but it's because I can't get used to the meats on Earth. But now I was curious to try your fish stew.\n- And can I make this dish in the Kingdom of Caring? Or is Care Bear Family going to be pissed at me for cooking meat?\nSky-Heart laughed softly at that question, and looked at his girlfriend shyly.\n- If were other kinds of meat, they might not allow it, but fortunately most bears and cousins like fish - explained the guardian magician - And I know that Shimmers, from time to time, flees during his missions to eat hot dogs, that Braveheart loves pork chops, and that Forest Ranger is a hamburger fan.\n- That makes me a little more calm - Longbow commented with a smile - What about the bow and arrow, and my magic? Will I be able to use them or can I just concentrate on using the Stare?\n- The fact that I have a lightsaber hanging from my waist at this moment, and having fought No Heart several times using my personal magic, already answers your question. C'mon Longbow, why do not you just say what your decision is? You know Care Bear Family would love to see you live in the Kingdom of Caring, and I'd be happy to see you too...\nThe bear's cheeks flushed brightly, and he lowered his head without the courage to look into the wolf's eyes, which smiled at hear that spontaneous comment of the bear. For a few seconds both were silent, before Longbow sat down beside Sky and stroked his back.\n- Do you really want me to go live in the Kingdom of Caring? - she asked in a gentle tone - How about asking right?\nSky-Heart lifted her head and glanced sideways at Longbow, feeling his cheeks brighter as he realized what she meant. It was when in an impulsive gesture he turned and gave a kiss to the wolf's cheek, holding her hands.\n- Do you want to be my girlfriend and live in the Kingdom of Caring? - he asked, quickly closing his eyes as if that could hide his shame.\n- Now you really were very fast - the female wolf said with a funny laugh, before returning the kiss and hugging the bear - Yes, I'm going to live in the Kingdom of Caring, so we can be closer to each other, little bear of my life!\nThe guardian magician smiled at these words, but something bothered his heart to hear that phrase, \"little bear of my life\". It was so familiar, it seemed so special and expensive to him at other times...\nLongbow was still smiling and hugging Sky-Heart, but she felt him tighten his muscles a bit and let out a mild uneasy sigh. Slowly she released herself from the hug and looked into her boyfriend's eye.\n- What happened? - she asked curiously - Did I do something wrong?\n- No, it's that... - he hesitated a little - That phrase... \"Little Bear of my life\", I've heard before in another context. But I can't remember.\n- Well, if that bothers you, I will not call you that. Just \"my cute little bear\".\nSky-Heart blushed even more at that affectionate nickname, starting to laugh softly, holding the she-wolf's hand and kissing it on the muzzle. That was when he felt something strange in his chest, which made him groan in surprise. It was as if an evil, invisible hand was squeezing his heart, and the image of Care Bear Family came into his mind.\n- Sky, is you okay? - Longbow asked worriedly - If it was because of the nickname, I apologize...\n- No, it's the Care Bear Family - he said quickly, glancing toward his girlfriend - I feel as if some evil against them is being fermented and would attack them very soon.\n- Oh heavens... And what will happen? Can we stop this?\n- I do not know what it is, and I do not know if we can do anything to stop it, but we must go to Care-a-Lot as soon as possible and warn the others. Tomorrow, at dawn, we'll leave.\n- All right, I agree with you - said the female wolf with an acquiescent signal - Now we'd better get some sleep, because I have to pack my things before we leave.\nAnd the two of them lay down on two individual mats, placed side by side on the floor, to sleep for a few hours wishing that everything was fine with the bears and cousins in the Kingdom of Caring.\n*****\nBoth Hector and Shimmers had no idea how much time had passed, only that both were being tickled ruthlessly by the three Carebears. Redemption continued to scratch the boy's armpits as Cheer took care of his feet. Trueheart, however, divided herself into teasing under the arms and swordsman's belly while his feet were rubbed and massaged by matriarch-controlled mechanical hands.\n- Stohohohop! Stohohohop, I beheheheg! I do ahahanythihihing! - Hector laughed non-stop, trying to free himself of his restraints and stop that torture of tickling. His greatest desire at that moment was to run away, to disappear from this place and to be together with Champ and Confidence, who were his real friends.\n- Oh, but you're doing exactly what I want, my little handsome, laughing little boy - Redemption grinned, kissing the boy's cheek before resuming the torturous tickling, staring straight into his eyes with malignant expression - Now that his friends are in exile, there is no one else to protect him, and I need not fear that fennec comes after me.\nMeanwhile, Cheer was enjoying the way the boy struggled trying to free himself of his metal holds. She sat on her ankles, listening to Hector's laughter as she tickled his feet, scratching up and down with her claws, before resuming his tickles in front of and on top of the young prisoner's big toes. The pink bear smiled openly, appreciating the situation and knowing that the boy would not be rescued, as well as Shimmers. In fact, she found it amusing to see Trueheart tickling the swordsman, and even sat down so that she could observe better as the matriarch tortured the most powerful of the members of Care Bear Family, now imprisoned and powerless in the face of those provocative tickles.\n- Nohohohot! Plehehehease, Truhuhuhue! Stohohohop! - Shimmers begged as he felt the claws under his arms, as he frantically moved his hands and tried to pull his arms in vain.\n- Oh, but we have not even started yet - said the founding bear with a gentle smile, scratching the warrior's armpits up and down, her brows trembling maliciously - We'll still have a lot of fun, my little cub. I'm going to make you have a very joyful and laughable day. You will learn to respect your mother and never lie to her.\nSaying this, she dug her claws quickly into the skin of Shimmers' armpits, as the mechanical hands grazed each toe individually, over the tops and front, and rubbed the heel cushions.\n- Plehehehease, Mahahahama! Stohohohop! Sohohohorry I lihihihied! Plehehehease stohohohop! Nohohohot! - cried the bear, feeling his cheeks flush with the taunts as he laughed and shivered over his tickles, especially on his toes - Nohohoho, nohohohot my feheheheet! Stohohohop!\n- Your feet, yes, they deserve all that attention - the matriarch said with a giggle, nuzzling noses with Shimmers and seeing him curl the toes and wiggle his heels to avoid tickling - And you're messing with them a lot, you better stop it or it will have new consequences.\nAnd saying that, she scratched the center of Shimmers' armpits, drawing circles and scratches quickly, digging deeply into the dimples without any mercy. What the bear and the boy did not know was that Nobleheart had told the truth, and their voice could be heard throughout the Kingdom of Caring through microphones hidden in the secret room and connected directly to the Care-a-lot and the Forest of Feelings sound system, which was usually worn during the parties or for some general alert.\nSo when Noble Heart returned to the Hall of Hearts, he found all the bears and cousins with expressions indignant for what they were having to hear, but also very frightened after all those threats made by the founders. Moreover, the mere presence of Aqua and Lonesome was enough so that no bear or cousin would attempt to flee the place, since the two were determined to take prisoners to any of their friends.\n- It's good to see that you've all been obedient, and you're still here - he said huskily, sitting comfortably in a chair - Now have fun and relax listening to the laughs of Hector and Shimmers as they are tickled.\nBut listening to the desperate entreaties of the swordsman still bothered and outraged most members of the Care Bear Family, especially in the face of Noble's compassionate approach to supporting Trueheart, Cheer, and Redemptionheart.\n- That's not right, Noble Heart, ask them to stop! - said Braveheart Lion with a scowl - They're torturing Shimmers, that's not cool!\n- You're not acting as the founders and leaders of the Family, dealing with Shimmers in this way - Loyal Heart Dog added angrily - You seem to want to discount the rage you felt with Loser and Traitor.\n- There's no need to make him go through this kind of humiliation - Tenderheart said quickly - However much he has gone wrong, he's a worthy member of the Care Bear Family, and he does not have to be tortured.\n- Well, I'm not listening to my little brother scream in pain, just laughing happily while he's stimulated - Aqua commented with a wink to Lonesomeheart - I bet he's having a lot of fun, and Redemption too.\n- Please, Noble, the children are frightened - Grams Bear said, a little concerned - Tell Trueheart to at least turn off the microphone.\n- As the same one said, I'm not listening to Shimmers scream in pain, just laughing happily while your body is stimulated - the horse replied with a wicked grin - Also, it's good that not only the kids get scared... But all of you also! True Heart is acting the way the two of us should have acted with you so you all would not disrespect or lie to us! Now shut up and sit in your seats, and listen as Shimmers are treated to serve as examples!\nNoble had lost all composure, baring his teeth and assuming a devilish expression that frightened everyone present, causing them to return to their places trembling with fear. This seemed to calm the patriarch somewhat, who watched amusingly the reactions of the bears and cousins before the desperate laughter of Shimmers. They just sat quietly in their chairs, visibly embarrassed and worried, especially when they saw the patriarch laughing as they all instinctively curled their toes when they heard the swordsman beg to do this. Even Grams Bear swallowed and protected Hugs and Tugs by her side.\n- That's better... I like to see how obedient you all are - he said with a slight smile, looking at Aqua and Lonesome amiably - At least you two are really enjoying the situation. Maybe the two of you can help us get a second round of Shimmers tickle when True Heart, Cheer and Redemption are tired.\nOnly Aqua and Lonesome were as relaxed as Noble Heart before all that, as they laughed and cheerfully commented on the most sensitive points in his friend's body. That's why they were surprised and flattered by that proposal, since tickling Shimmers was one of their favorite games.\nIn other situations the swordsman would certainly also agree with the brother of the heart, but not on that occasion when he was being strictly punished by his own friends. A part of his heart loved that tickling treatment, but another part was outraged by the way he was being treated by everyone. However, he could not think much of it, since tickling prevented him from concentrating.\nTickling also continued to torment Hector. He was completely exhausted, his whole body aching with laughter, tears streaming down his cheeks, dry throat and sweat covering his body from head to toe. The boy had no idea how much time had passed, he just knew that he was still being tortured with tickling by Redemption and Cheer without the right to rest. The medical bear was enjoying every minute, watching the prisoner's reactions by scratching his armpits. As for the vain young bear, she was spreading her claws up and down the soles of his feet, deftly tickling up to the big toes, enjoying seeing and feeling them trying to escape.\n- Stohohohop! I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it ahahanymohohore! - Hector cried desperately - My feheheheet are buhuhuhurning wihihihith so muhuhuhuch tihihihickling!\n- Mihihihine tohohohoo! Plehehehease stohohohop! - Shimmers begged as he continued to stir his feet and curl up his toes, though he could not help avoid the tickles because his ankles were firmly attached to the metal rings.\nTrue he just shook his head and smiled, scratching the bear's chin as she continued to tickle his armpits.\n- No, I will not stop my wittle cub, you deserve all that attention. Besides... - she smiled wickedly, stopping the scratch on his chin and pressing a button beside the bed - You're very stubborn, and you do not want to keep your feet up voluntarily. Then you will have a little help.\nInstantly, the mechanical hands held Shimmers toes pulled back and away from each other, while the thick metal rings closed around each toe, preventing them from moving. Already the matriarch smiled and sank her claws into the swordsman's armpits, scratching quickly up and down.\n- My feheheheheet, plehehehease Cheheheer! - Hector cried, feeling ashamed of all the attention the pink bear was giving at his feet, as he tried desperately to curl his toes, especially when she tickled them, but the boy also suffered from the ruthless tickling of Redemption in his armpits, and he clenched his fists and tried to pull his arms, but the restrictions did not break - Rehehedemptihihion, my ahahaharms ache! Stohohohop, plehehehease!\n- You mean your arms hurt, Hector? That's nice - the doctor laughed as her eyes trembled eagerly at the sensitivity of the young prisoner's armpits, looking directly into his face to see what he was suffering as she continued tickling cheerfully up and down under his arms.\n- I'm sorry, Hector, but your feet are now all mine - Cheer said with a giggle as she scratched the defenseless soles even more, before she quickly scratched his toes again, switching between them to keep Hector laughing.\n- Nohohoho, plehehehease! Stohohohop Mahahahama, do nohohohot thihihihis with mehehehe! Please! - Shimmers shouted, swaying from side to side in the face of so many tickles, feeling more helpless than ever.\n- But of course I can, after all you've done something wrong and need to be punished for it - Trueheart said with a smile from ear to ear, nuzzling noses with the bear and continuing to scratch his armpits - And you're so cute while you're laughing... I bet you're very sensitive to tickling, are you not?\nSaying this, she quickly scraped his underarms up and down as the mechanical hands focused again on the swordsman's toes, which felt his cheeks flushing because of her nuzzling nose. Again he tried to move his arms unsuccessfully as he closed his eyes and opened his mouth wide to laugh out loud.\n- Yehehehes, I ahahaham vehehehery sehehehensitihihihive! - he begged as he moved his hands in vain in the restraints above his head, trying in vain to curl his toes and pull his legs up, as well as moving his waist back and forth trying to hide his belly, but his restraints kept him firmly stuck - Please True, stohohohop, please! Enohohohough Redehehehemption! Cheheheheer! I cahahahan nohohohot tahahahake it ahahahanymohohohore!\n- Well, being sensitive to tickling is common to all Carebears and Carebear Cousins - commented the matriarch cheerfully, scratching up and down the dimples of his armpits - I think that's because our feelings are more intense than normal to flow through the Stare, my dear cub. Although Hector is not a Care Bear and is laughing as much as you, my dear little cub.\nAnd with a mischievous wink, she continued to scratch the swordsman's armpits even more rapidly, while the mechanical hands also began to tickle the cushions at the tips of his toes and across the soles of his feet, causing Shimmers begging still more. And the same was true of Hector, who continued to be tortured by Redemption and Cheer without any mercy, having his feet and armpits stimulated to the maximum.\nMeanwhile, in the Hall of Hearts, Noble Heart followed the reactions of the other members of the Care bear Family. As he expected, his threats and the presence of Aqua Bear and Lonesomeheart were enough that no bear or cousin tried to flee the site. And though most continued to show concern and fear, the spirit of some began to give way and appreciate the fact that Shimmers and Hector was being tickled non-stop. Among them were Playful Heart and Funshine Bear, who were already talking animatedly about their experiences, and also Wish Bear and Surprise Bear although they tried to demonstrate otherwise.\nBut there were some who were still nonconformists with the situation, as was the case with Tenderheart and Braveheart, who kept insisting with the patriarch that he stop with that torture.\n- Please, Noble Heart, we ask you again, make Trueheart stop! - said the brown bear in a clearly distressed tone - We have all learned the lesson, including Shimmers and Hector, and no one else will challenge you!\n- Our friend no longer needs to be tortured, we will respect you and Trueheart - the lion said worriedly - You can trust us!\n- No way, they will continue to be tortured, and I'm sure you're enjoying listening to the desperate laughter of our two dear prisoner - said the horse with a wink, looking toward his adopted cubs - Besides, Trueheart and I want to make sure that we can trust you again, and so you really need to demonstrate that you have learned the lesson.\nAt that moment everyone heard Hector and Shimmers beg at same time to curl their toes, and this made the majority curl their toes or firmly support the soles of their feet on the floor, afraid that Noble Heart would start tickling all of them.\n- No, Noble, please make them stop! - Friend Bear begged, trying to cover his ears to hear no more laughter - This is very humiliating for all of us!\n- Well, that's exactly the idea, my friend - said the horse maliciously - You'll all have to hear Shimmers and Hector be punished for 24 hours to make you feel humiliated and scared... And do not try to run away, Bright Heart, or you'll join him in the choir!\nReally the raccoon had walked slowly toward the back door, and had his hand on the doorknob when he heard Noble's words and blanched with fear, since he was one of the few who did not accept that situation\n- That's not fair, Noble - said the inventor, swallowing hard and trebling with fear seeing the horse wiggle his fingers - The way you're acting, we're already prisoners!\n- And you'd better not try to resist, or you'll really be a prisoner - Noble said dryly - You're all good cubs and you should obey your parents, so you better sit down and just enjoy the show. Or Aqua and Lonesome will start tickling some of you...\nThe sea bear and the warrior female bear looked at each other in delight, while the others just swallowed and ran to sit on their chairs to prevent Noble Heart from fulfilling that threat. The horse just smiled maliciously and also sat back relaxed listening to the tickled prisoner's desperate cries and the nuisance that it did to bears and cousins. He did not know exactly why, but he loved to see that suffering.\nWhat no one had really realized was that a faint black mist had slowly begun to surround the Hall of Hearts and enter through the doors and windows, being sucked in by the bears and cousins with each breath. As the minutes passed, most members of the Care Bear Family began to feel a strange sense of disinterest in what happened with Shimmers. It was as though they were slowly beginning to not care to see the swordsman suffer, and they were amused at the desperate laughter of the prisoner bear.\nOnly a few, like Grams Bear, her grandchildren, Bright Heart and Goodluck Bear, stood firm in their conviction that this was something very wrong, but they were also tempted to ask Nobleheart and Trueheart to continue torturing Shimmers. And that was something that bothered them, for they could not understand where this temptation came from wanting the suffering of the friend.\nThat way, without anyone realizing it, the Care Bear Family was gradually giving in to the No Heart spell and giving the possibility of being attacked by the wizard and his allies without being able to defend himself.\n","writing_bbcode_parsed":"

*****

Meanwhile Hector was still being carried by Redemptionheart and Cheer Bear through the Kingdom of Caring until they reached a spot where the doctor created a rainbow strip with the Stare and tied it around the boy's head, covering his eyes.
- Not! Get it out of me! - he shouted, shaking his head.
- I'm sorry, little boy, but you can't know where the secret hiding place is - Redemption said sweetly, nuzzling noses with him - And no one will help you, as everyone is being watched by the founders in the Hall of Hearts.
- Oh, I can't wait to sink my claws back into your soles, Hector - the pink bear said cheerfully - And this time I will not care if you wet your pants, I will continue to torment you for a long time, until you are powerless and sweaty from head to toe.
- That's it Cheer, his feet are for you to tickle and provoke without fear of reprisal. We do not need to worry about any consequences; he's ours to be tortured with tickles forever.
The pink bear smiled with happiness as she slowly rubbed the boy's exposed soles in her furry belly, up and down.
- No, please, I beg you! Let me go! - he shouted desperately, when he felt something soft and furry rubbing his feet - No! What is it? Stohohohop!
- Stop? But we have not even started yet! - said the medical bear maliciously - You're so cute, your arms will be tied up over your head so they do not get in my way when I sink my claws into your armpits, and you have no chance to defend yourself.
- Not to mention that your ankles will be stuck in strong metal restraints so you can not kick or resist - added the vain pink bear with a giggle, rubbing his feet on her belly - And your toes will be tied so I can rub them without you curling them around. Coochie coo!
- Nohohoho, plehehehease, why do yohohohou wahahahant to tohohohorture me agahahahain? - Hector asked through laughter, trying to hide his feet and instinctively wrapping his arms to protect his armpits - I dihihihid nohohohot do ahahanythihihing wrohohohong! I thohohought yohohohou two wehehehere cohohohool! Stahahahap!
But the bears did not attend to his requests, and he just remained sealed in his rainbow cocoon. At this point, the two Care Bears stopped, and Redemption quickly blindfolded Cheer so the young bear could not see where the secret hiding door was, never to reveal her location, even if she was captured and tortured. Again they took Hector on they lap and walked for a few moments, until the boy heard a metallic sound as if a door were opening.
Although the Brazilian boy could not see anything, he felt that they were now walking down a long staircase, and also during this time he continued to feel his feet being gently rubbed against Cheer's furry belly, which made him giggle non-stop.
Suddenly they stopped, and Hector felt himself positioned on a cushioned surface and his "cocoon" began to be broken. The boy tried very hard to escape, but was quickly seized by his wrists and felt his arms raised above his head, his wrists being handcuffed in metal restraints. The same thing happened to his ankles, and in a matter of seconds he was completely dominated and helpless. Finally, he heard his shirt being torn, and his trunk exposed to be tickled by the two bears.
- Nohohoho, stohohohop it! Plehehehease stohohop! Lehehehet mehehehe gohohoho! - the boy pleaded almost crying as he felt a single sharp object sink into his armpits and tickle up and down. He also felt his toes being tied in cold metal tongs, preventing him from rolling them up - Stohohohop! Yohohou cahahahan nohohohot do thihihis to mehehehe! Lehehehet me gohohoho!
- Oh yes, of course we can - he heard Redemptionheart speak in a provocative tone scratching beneath his chin - Your armpits and your feet are at our disposal to be provoked. Coochie coo!
- Nohohohot! Nohohohot thahahat, get yohohohour hahahands off mehehehe! - he cried, closing his eyes, feeling that his defenseless feet were also beginning to be scratched, and he swung his hips trying to resist - Enohohohough! Thihihis is tohohohorture! Do nohohohot tihihihickle mehehehehe!
- We know its torture, so you'll be tickled to exhaustion! - said the medical bear, amused to scratch beneath the boy's arms, knowing that he could not defend himself.
- Stohohohop! Hehehelp! Sohohomebohohody hehehelp me!
Hector screamed desperately, feeling his face blush with embarrassment at the situation. His heart pounded as he struggled to pull his legs and arms, wanting to curl up in a fetal position to protect armpits and feet. He felt a claw scratching the heels slightly in circles while his soles and toes were gently rubbed, as were the dimples of his armpits.
- No one's going to help you, sweet little Brazilian - said the pink bear in a childish tone, scratching the boy's insteps lightly - We'll tickle you forever, and Care Bear Family will hear each of your laughter.
Hector shook his head from side to side, still trying to move his hips. Then he felt something scratching slightly from the front of his toes, causing as much tickling of the skin.
- Stohohohop! My feheheheet, I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it! - he begged as he felt the claws poking right under his toes - Stop, stahahahap! I beheheheg!
But his arguments were not heard by the two carebears, who continued tickling his body mercilessly, making him feel completely defenseless, with sweat starting to form on his forehead. He did not know what was worse, if it was to be without seeing anything, if it was not being able to defend himself, or if it was to have his most sensitive points stimulated that way.
- Nohohoho, I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it! Enohohohough! - he begged again, even though he knew it would not stop his torturers - Plehehehease, why are yohohohou dohohohoing thihihis to mehehehe?
- Because we want to - said Cheer Bear with a giggle - Besides, you're such a sweet boy... Your skin is so sensitive, your soft feet look so cute, and your navel jumps in the belly every time you laugh. Why would we stop then, cute Brazilian?
And then he felt a single claw caressing each side of his arms, zigzagging up and down. Hector closed his hands and tried to pull his arms, with no result. He also felt his feet becoming more sensitive to tickling, while the claws up and down on his soles. And in front of all those compliments he felt a blush of shame.
- Stohohohop, I feheheheel ashahahamed! Stahahahap! My feheheheet! I wahahahant to cuhuhuhurl my tohohohoes!
The boy heard only a few malicious giggles from Cheer and Redemption as he felt the furry fingers with pointed claws sink into his armpits with pleasure. He felt completely embarrassed at the treatment, especially when one of the little bears nuzzled at him. With each new touch or scratch in his body, he felt more and more wanting to laugh as tears formed in his closed eyes.
- Oh, so cute and helpless. Coochie coo! - Cheer said provocatively - You really are a little boy sensitive to tickling...
Hector felt the claws poking and clawing his arms up and down faster as his feet were slowly caressed and someone nuzzle noses with him as well as starting to give kisses to his cheeks.
- Stohohohop thihihis! Stohohohop! - he shouted, trying to avoid those kisses and nuzzles in his nose as he felt more and more embarrassed and sensitive, almost feeling each hair of the furry paws touching his armpits or feet - Hehehelp! Stohohohop, I cahahahan nohohohot tahahahake it ahahanymohohore!
- You can't resist little Brazilian - Redemption snarled as a single claw circled in the center of each boy's armpit.
At that moment he felt something feathery touching between his toes, causing Hector to react by trying to move his sensitive feet. He also felt the claws scratching his armpits, circling around the dimples of the armpits, provoking as much of the stimuli as possible.
- Stohohohop tohohouchihihing my ahaharmpihihits! Nohohoho, my feheheheet! Plehehehease, lehehehet me gohohoho! - he begged again, feeling every part of his body increasingly sensitive, especially since he was already sweating from head to toe - I cahahahan nohohohot take it ahahanymohohore! Stohohohop! Get yohohohour hahahands off mehehehe, plehehehease! My feheheheet, my armpihihihits! Hehehelp!
But his pleas were not met, and he just felt even more tickling concentrating in front of his toes, in addition to his arms continuing to be tickled quickly up and down as the nuzzling noses continued and his cheeks kissed. So many tickles together made him start to feel his bladder filled, and he instinctively tightened his legs.
- Plehehehease, I'm gohohohoing to wehehehet my pahahahants! Stohohohop! - Hector asked desperately, unable to defend himself - My feheheheet, I neheheheed to cuhuhuhurl my tohohohoes!
The boy heard the laughter of the two carebears again and felt his face blush with embarrassment as he laughed desperately, feeling that he could not bear it any longer. Then a dark spot appeared on the front of his shorts as the scent of urine rose in the air.
- Oh, it looks like the little boy got wet - Redemption said in a childish tone - I thought you could last longer. But now you're sure to feel even more sensitive and you'll laugh a lot more, especially when your punishment partner arrives... And he's just the most powerful and ticklish bear of Care Bear Family
Saying this, she stopped tickling the boy's belly and nuzzling noses with him, making him blush even more.
- Stohohohop! I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it ahahanymohohore! - Hector shouted desperately, shaking his head from side to side - Plehehehease stohohop tihihihickling me! I beheheheg!
- No way, now you're all ours - Redemption said as she sank her claws even deeper into the boy's armpits, scratching up and down to watch the prisoner's reactions.
- It's time for you to suffer, cute little Brazilian - Cheer Bear declared maliciously as she rubbed the quill into Hector's big toes, poking at the front and the top.
- Nohohohot! Stohohohop! Plehehehease! - he shouted through laughter, fighting futilely against his restraints and not wanting to be tortured again for hours and hours as on another occasion - Hehehelp! I dohohoho whahahatever yohohohou wahahahant!
- So keep laughing nonstop, cute little boy - the doctor concluded as she sank her claws further into Hector's armpits, and Cheer used her own claws to provoke the full extent of the soles of the little prisoner's feet, who were increasingly desperate to have no defense, and very afraid that it would last forever.

Noble Heart and True Heart quickly entered the house, with malicious expressions, finding Shimmers still sitting and tied in the same place, the bear had a low head and a sad face.
- Oh, it looks like our cub is still here - the horse taunted, scratching the chin of his adopted son - I'm glad you waited for our return.
- Guess what we did with your friends, Champ and Confidence? - asked the female bear maliciously, with a wink, also scratching the son's chin.
- Hey! Stop it! - said Shimmers, shaking his head from side to side, trying to avoid tickling, before looking worriedly at his parents - What have you done to them?
- What do you think we did? - asked Noble Heart, still scratching the bear's chin - The only thing we can do with a traitor and a disturber, that is, they were expelled from the Family and they will forever bear the marks of their crimes.
Shimmers stared gaping at Noble and then at True as if he could not believe it, especially in face of the quiet and Machiavellian expressions his parents had on the face, quite different from the loving and attentive look they usually had for bears and cousins.
- Yes, we've thrown them out of Care Bear Family forever - the female bear confirmed with a smirk - They got what they deserved. Now, as for you... We also choose the punishment you deserve.
- PP-Please do not drive me away! - the swordsman whimpered with trembling lips - I did not do anything wrong, please!
- Oh, are you afraid of being expelled? - asked the patriarch gently, before shifting to Shimmers' feet and beginning to tickle his toes - Do you think we would do that to you, my cub?
- We would never have the guts to do this to you, my little dear - added the matriarch as she began to scratch the bear's armpits quickly - Coochie coo! You are our special son, and we love you very much.
- Hey! Nohohoho! Stohohohop! - the bear laughed trying to protect his armpits.
- That's right, I would never do that to you, Shimmers - Noble Heart said with a broad smile, continuing to rub the soles and toes of the bear - I love you, and I would never kick you out of Care Bear Family. Besides, you're so cute and have such sensitive feet... Coochie coo!
- Champ and Confidence deserved to be expelled because they created confusion, but that was not your case, my little cub - the female bear said as she quickly provoked the swordsman's armpits - You did not know what they were doing, so you're innocent... Or almost.
- Nohohoho, plehehehease! - Shimmers begged as he felt his cheeks flush because of those teasing and tickling - Whahahahat do yohohohou mehehehean by "ahahahalmost"?
- Well... You knew Confidence's secret, knew she had quarreled with Cheer Bear, and you did not tell us - explained the horse, using a single finger to tickle from the heel cushions to the tip of the bear's toes - So, even though you were not an accomplice, you omitted information that was important to us.
- Then we decide you and Hector need to have a lesson - the matriarch said calmly, kneading the armpits of her foster child - Since you two are very handsome and sensitive, you two will have to endure 24 hours of tickling torture and no mercy.
- Hahaha! Twehehehenty fohohohour hohohohours?!? - Shimmers exclaimed, his eyes wide with concern as he heard this, his cheeks flush with humiliation and he tried to close his toes - Nohohoho! Sohohohorry! I'll tehehehell yohohohou nehehehext tihihihime!
- Ah, of course you will say, especially after your punishment - Noble Heart commented maliciously, before untying the bear's feet from the stool where they were trapped but still keeping their ankles tied together - After this punishment, you will learn once and for all how to be a good little bear and not try to challenge your parents.
- And as you like to be tickled, you'll certainly have a lot of fun with that punishment -  True Heart added before gagging the mouth and blindfolding the swordsman's eyes - Sorry, son, but you will not see where we're taking him or you can ask for help. All set, Noble?
- Yes, come on - and the patriarch grabbed Shimmers by the arms while the matriarch grabbed him by the legs to take him away.
The prisoner began to breathe quickly, trying to protest and get rid of his bonds without success, not being able to believe that his punishment would be to be tickled. Again he fussed around trying to break the rainbow strings, but only True Heart could do it because she was the one who made them with the Stare.
- Stop moving so much, Shimmers - said the horse maliciously as he realized the bear was trying to break free - Otherwise we will be forced to take more drastic measures.
- As if we were not going to do that - commented the female bear with a giggle - Now tell me Shimmers, what do you think of tickling under your arms?
To True Heart's delight, the bear's response to that question, made in a sugary, malicious tone, was only to move even more violently from side to side, screaming in his muffled voice through the gag, begging clearly for the matriarch not to tickle him, as he whimpered trying to get rid of his bonds.
- Ah, as I imagined, you die of tickling your armpits - she said with a smile, pretending not to understand the swordsman's reactions - I already knew you would love this idea, so do not worry, because we'll make sure you feel a lot of tickling under your arms. We will stimulate the entire area of your armpits, scraping and scrubbing quickly and methodically without a moment's rest. Also, if we find that your sensitivity is diminishing, we will use massage oil on your skin to make it feel sensitive again.
- And that's not all, you'll also have a good tickling massage on your feet, so you have two points of your body stimulated at the same time - Noble Heart added quietly - We will tickle the full extent of your soles, your cushions and your toes, using claws, feathers, our own hairy paws and other little things that Redemption has provided.
- And you'll laugh and have fun like never before, my cub. You're going to beg so we can let you curl your toes, wiggle your arms or even walk away, but we will not let you do that. Coochie coo!
- Nnnnphmmmmfff! - Shimmers begged as he felt his cheeks redden again, closing his toes when he heard all this, and continuing to fight all the way, unable to break the bonds.
- That's right, my cub, keep trying to fight, that only makes me even more excited to tickle you - the female bear said slowly - I will pay special attention to your armpits, and I am sure that after that, you will never lie to Noble or to me again.
Saying this, the three of them reached the secret hiding place, and Shimmers heard a door open, at the same time the sound of a youthful laugh came to his ears. It was the voice of Hector, who was laughing desperately. The bear swallowed hard as he felt they were coming down a ladder before he was laid on something soft.
Quickly, the two founders untied the swordsman's ankles and secured his right leg, trapping his ankle in metal restraints. So they did the same with the left leg, despite Shimmers' efforts to stop them from holding his leg. Suddenly, he felt that his wrists were also untied, and two firm hands gripped his arms and pulled them up before pinning them in metal cuffs. He had his body stretched and his armpits exposed while he was being held that way. It was when someone tore the cloth off his eyes, making it blink a few times because of the light.
- And so, my little cub, are you comfortable? - True Heart questioned maliciously, her face inches from the bear's eyes.
The swordsman looked around desperately. He was in a cave, dug in the very cloud, and his wrists were fastened in thick metal buckles, while his ankles were stuck in a set of metal restraints as well. Looking sideways, he saw Hector trapped the same way, with no shirt and shoes, with Redemptionheart and Cheer Bear tickling the boy's armpits and feet.
Hector continued to laugh desperately, as he watched as Nobleheart and Trueheart entered the room carrying Shimmers in their lap, tied, blindfolded eyes and mouth gagged. Both the Brazilian boy and the swordsman exchanged desperate glances.
- Enohohohough! Why are yohohohou tohohorturihihing us lihihihike thihihis? - Hector asked sweating from head to toe - I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand to feheheheel tihihicklihihish! Stohohohop!
- But of course you can handle it, because we will not stop - said the medical bear with a broad smile, sinking her claws into the boy's armpits - And that's true for Shimmers too, is not it, True?
The matriarch just winked, before rubbing her fingers lightly into the swordsman's belly as Noble snatched his gag.
- Nohohoho, plehehehease do nohohohot tihihihickle mehehehe! – Shimmers pleaded with a laugh as Noble turned a crank on the wall that seemed to pull the bear's arms even more and made his armpits even more vulnerable. And although that was not painful, it certainly was not comfortable either. In addition, there were several mechanical hands in place, seeming just waiting for a command to start the tormenting tickles.
Redemption continued tickling Hector's underarms up and down, glancing happily at his face and enjoying the sensation of tickling the young prisoner's armpits, especially as he moved from side to side. Meanwhile Cheer, after sitting on her own ankles, continued tickling the boy's toes, paying special attention to the right big toe to which she scratched calmly, since there was no chance of the boy getting to twist or curl his toes.
At least Shimmers could still move his toes, but he noticed that there were small metal restraints just behind his toes, ready to be closed and keeping them still and apart, leaving his feet exposed and helpless.
- Oh, do not worry, for now we will not catch your toes - said Trueheart with a small smile, nuzzling noses with Shimmers as she noticed his worried gaze - However, these mechanical hands will take care of your armpits and feet mercilessly, and I can control the intensity and speed with which they will tickle. Besides... Well... Why do not you tell him, Noble Heart?
The horse slowly approached his son and tickled his belly with a broad smile on the lips.
- We've installed a microphone in this room, and we've attached it to the Kingdom of Caring's emergency loudspeakers so everyone can hear you and Hector laughing and begging you not to be tickled - he said maliciously, rubbing his paw in the swordsman's navel - By the way, they are already listening to us right now, including their beloved Wish Bear. Oh, how she must be worried about you... But I want her, and everyone else, to learn once and for all who the leaders of Care Bear Family are, and that any of them who disobey me or Trueheart, by doing something wrong, it will suffer truly sensible consequences.
- Nohohoho, plehehehease, Truhuhue! Nohohohoble! - Shimmers shouted nervously as he stared at the couple of founders and blushed at the tease in his nose, feeling his willpower begin to fade - I dohohoho nohohohot wahahahant to be tihihihickled!
- Stohohohop, my feheheheet! - Hector also shouted, trying again to curl his toes - My feheheheet are sehehensitihihive, I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it!
Redemptionheart Bear licked the tears on Hector's face, feverishly continuing to tickle his armpits while Cheer giggled amusingly tickling the big toe right using the other claws to scratch the soles up and down.
- Coochie coo, there's no turning back now, you'll feel a lot of tickling - Trueheart told Shimmers before pushing a button that made the mechanical hands start to clench, scratching and rubbing the bear's feet - While the mechanical hands tickle your feet, I will take care of your armpits as well as Redemption is doing with Hector.
Quickly the matriarch placed furry gloves with claws at her fingertips, and began to scratch lightly under the swordsman's arms, up and down, as the mechanical hands explored the region of the heart cushions on the heels of the bear.
- Nohohohoho! - Shimmers shouted desperately, trying to move.
Nobleheart smiled at the reaction of the foster child, at the same time that he cast an amused glance at Hector, seeing how much the boy was already sweating by being tickled by the two carebears.
- I hope you two have a lot of fun - the patriarch said with a wicked wink - Now I need to go back to the others, to watch them suffer as they hear you two being ruthlessly tickled. See you later, my dear little cubs.
And he withdrew without looking back, feeling no pain at the suffering of the Shimmers or Hector, and delighting in knowing that he was doing something bad for someone for the first time in his life.

Although Longbow Wolf was not a very feminine type, and she lived in a lost cave in the forests of North America, yet she always kept her house clean and tidy, as well as decorating the corners with colorful flower pots and knowing how to cook a good dinner with roots and fruits of the trees. And that night she had an even greater reason to perfect the food, since she was receiving the visit from Sky-Heart Bear.
In fact, the female wolf had already agreed that the bear would visit her that night for both to talk, and for her to communicate her decision whether or not to live in the Kingdom of Caring. But they did not allude to this matter immediately, because first the two talked about what had been the week, and then had dinner in silence mashed potatoes with lettuce salad, with walnut cake as dessert.
- Your cake was delicious, Longbow - Sky-Heart said with a little smile, rubbing his belly in a sign of contentment - With whom did you learn the recipe? Certainly not been with Grams Bear during the Caring Fair...
- No, I have a cookbook, and I also like to cook - Longbow said with a giggle - I was going to make a fish stew in the white sauce, but I do not know if you're a vegetarian like the other members of Care Bear Family.
- Well... I'm not a vegetarian by choice, but it's because I can't get used to the meats on Earth. But now I was curious to try your fish stew.
- And can I make this dish in the Kingdom of Caring? Or is Care Bear Family going to be pissed at me for cooking meat?
Sky-Heart laughed softly at that question, and looked at his girlfriend shyly.
- If were other kinds of meat, they might not allow it, but fortunately most bears and cousins like fish - explained the guardian magician - And I know that Shimmers, from time to time, flees during his missions to eat hot dogs, that Braveheart loves pork chops, and that Forest Ranger is a hamburger fan.
- That makes me a little more calm - Longbow commented with a smile - What about the bow and arrow, and my magic? Will I be able to use them or can I just concentrate on using the Stare?
- The fact that I have a lightsaber hanging from my waist at this moment, and having fought No Heart several times using my personal magic, already answers your question. C'mon Longbow, why do not you just say what your decision is? You know Care Bear Family would love to see you live in the Kingdom of Caring, and I'd be happy to see you too...
The bear's cheeks flushed brightly, and he lowered his head without the courage to look into the wolf's eyes, which smiled at hear that spontaneous comment of the bear. For a few seconds both were silent, before Longbow sat down beside Sky and stroked his back.
- Do you really want me to go live in the Kingdom of Caring? - she asked in a gentle tone - How about asking right?
Sky-Heart lifted her head and glanced sideways at Longbow, feeling his cheeks brighter as he realized what she meant. It was when in an impulsive gesture he turned and gave a kiss to the wolf's cheek, holding her hands.
- Do you want to be my girlfriend and live in the Kingdom of Caring? - he asked, quickly closing his eyes as if that could hide his shame.
- Now you really were very fast - the female wolf said with a funny laugh, before returning the kiss and hugging the bear - Yes, I'm going to live in the Kingdom of Caring, so we can be closer to each other, little bear of my life!
The guardian magician smiled at these words, but something bothered his heart to hear that phrase, "little bear of my life". It was so familiar, it seemed so special and expensive to him at other times...
Longbow was still smiling and hugging Sky-Heart, but she felt him tighten his muscles a bit and let out a mild uneasy sigh. Slowly she released herself from the hug and looked into her boyfriend's eye.
- What happened? - she asked curiously - Did I do something wrong?
- No, it's that... - he hesitated a little - That phrase... "Little Bear of my life", I've heard before in another context. But I can't remember.
- Well, if that bothers you, I will not call you that. Just "my cute little bear".
Sky-Heart blushed even more at that affectionate nickname, starting to laugh softly, holding the she-wolf's hand and kissing it on the muzzle. That was when he felt something strange in his chest, which made him groan in surprise. It was as if an evil, invisible hand was squeezing his heart, and the image of Care Bear Family came into his mind.
- Sky, is you okay? - Longbow asked worriedly - If it was because of the nickname, I apologize...
- No, it's the Care Bear Family - he said quickly, glancing toward his girlfriend - I feel as if some evil against them is being fermented and would attack them very soon.
- Oh heavens... And what will happen? Can we stop this?
- I do not know what it is, and I do not know if we can do anything to stop it, but we must go to Care-a-Lot as soon as possible and warn the others. Tomorrow, at dawn, we'll leave.
- All right, I agree with you - said the female wolf with an acquiescent signal - Now we'd better get some sleep, because I have to pack my things before we leave.
And the two of them lay down on two individual mats, placed side by side on the floor, to sleep for a few hours wishing that everything was fine with the bears and cousins in the Kingdom of Caring.
*****
Both Hector and Shimmers had no idea how much time had passed, only that both were being tickled ruthlessly by the three Carebears. Redemption continued to scratch the boy's armpits as Cheer took care of his feet. Trueheart, however, divided herself into teasing under the arms and swordsman's belly while his feet were rubbed and massaged by matriarch-controlled mechanical hands.
- Stohohohop! Stohohohop, I beheheheg! I do ahahanythihihing! - Hector laughed non-stop, trying to free himself of his restraints and stop that torture of tickling. His greatest desire at that moment was to run away, to disappear from this place and to be together with Champ and Confidence, who were his real friends.
- Oh, but you're doing exactly what I want, my little handsome, laughing little boy - Redemption grinned, kissing the boy's cheek before resuming the torturous tickling, staring straight into his eyes with malignant expression - Now that his friends are in exile, there is no one else to protect him, and I need not fear that fennec comes after me.
Meanwhile, Cheer was enjoying the way the boy struggled trying to free himself of his metal holds. She sat on her ankles, listening to Hector's laughter as she tickled his feet, scratching up and down with her claws, before resuming his tickles in front of and on top of the young prisoner's big toes. The pink bear smiled openly, appreciating the situation and knowing that the boy would not be rescued, as well as Shimmers. In fact, she found it amusing to see Trueheart tickling the swordsman, and even sat down so that she could observe better as the matriarch tortured the most powerful of the members of Care Bear Family, now imprisoned and powerless in the face of those provocative tickles.
- Nohohohot! Plehehehease, Truhuhuhue! Stohohohop! - Shimmers begged as he felt the claws under his arms, as he frantically moved his hands and tried to pull his arms in vain.
- Oh, but we have not even started yet - said the founding bear with a gentle smile, scratching the warrior's armpits up and down, her brows trembling maliciously - We'll still have a lot of fun, my little cub. I'm going to make you have a very joyful and laughable day. You will learn to respect your mother and never lie to her.
Saying this, she dug her claws quickly into the skin of Shimmers' armpits, as the mechanical hands grazed each toe individually, over the tops and front, and rubbed the heel cushions.
- Plehehehease, Mahahahama! Stohohohop! Sohohohorry I lihihihied! Plehehehease stohohohop! Nohohohot! - cried the bear, feeling his cheeks flush with the taunts as he laughed and shivered over his tickles, especially on his toes - Nohohoho, nohohohot my feheheheet! Stohohohop!
- Your feet, yes, they deserve all that attention - the matriarch said with a giggle, nuzzling noses with Shimmers and seeing him curl the toes and wiggle his heels to avoid tickling - And you're messing with them a lot, you better stop it or it will have new consequences.
And saying that, she scratched the center of Shimmers' armpits, drawing circles and scratches quickly, digging deeply into the dimples without any mercy. What the bear and the boy did not know was that Nobleheart had told the truth, and their voice could be heard throughout the Kingdom of Caring through microphones hidden in the secret room and connected directly to the Care-a-lot and the Forest of Feelings sound system, which was usually worn during the parties or for some general alert.
So when Noble Heart returned to the Hall of Hearts, he found all the bears and cousins with expressions indignant for what they were having to hear, but also very frightened after all those threats made by the founders. Moreover, the mere presence of Aqua and Lonesome was enough so that no bear or cousin would attempt to flee the place, since the two were determined to take prisoners to any of their friends.
- It's good to see that you've all been obedient, and you're still here - he said huskily, sitting comfortably in a chair - Now have fun and relax listening to the laughs of Hector and Shimmers as they are tickled.
But listening to the desperate entreaties of the swordsman still bothered and outraged most members of the Care Bear Family, especially in the face of Noble's compassionate approach to supporting Trueheart, Cheer, and Redemptionheart.
- That's not right, Noble Heart, ask them to stop! - said Braveheart Lion with a scowl - They're torturing Shimmers, that's not cool!
- You're not acting as the founders and leaders of the Family, dealing with Shimmers in this way - Loyal Heart Dog added angrily - You seem to want to discount the rage you felt with Loser and Traitor.
- There's no need to make him go through this kind of humiliation - Tenderheart said quickly - However much he has gone wrong, he's a worthy member of the Care Bear Family, and he does not have to be tortured.
- Well, I'm not listening to my little brother scream in pain, just laughing happily while he's stimulated - Aqua commented with a wink to Lonesomeheart - I bet he's having a lot of fun, and Redemption too.
- Please, Noble, the children are frightened - Grams Bear said, a little concerned - Tell Trueheart to at least turn off the microphone.
- As the same one said, I'm not listening to Shimmers scream in pain, just laughing happily while your body is stimulated - the horse replied with a wicked grin - Also, it's good that not only the kids get scared... But all of you also! True Heart is acting the way the two of us should have acted with you so you all would not disrespect or lie to us! Now shut up and sit in your seats, and listen as Shimmers are treated to serve as examples!
Noble had lost all composure, baring his teeth and assuming a devilish expression that frightened everyone present, causing them to return to their places trembling with fear. This seemed to calm the patriarch somewhat, who watched amusingly the reactions of the bears and cousins before the desperate laughter of Shimmers. They just sat quietly in their chairs, visibly embarrassed and worried, especially when they saw the patriarch laughing as they all instinctively curled their toes when they heard the swordsman beg to do this. Even Grams Bear swallowed and protected Hugs and Tugs by her side.
- That's better... I like to see how obedient you all are - he said with a slight smile, looking at Aqua and Lonesome amiably - At least you two are really enjoying the situation. Maybe the two of you can help us get a second round of Shimmers tickle when True Heart, Cheer and Redemption are tired.
Only Aqua and Lonesome were as relaxed as Noble Heart before all that, as they laughed and cheerfully commented on the most sensitive points in his friend's body. That's why they were surprised and flattered by that proposal, since tickling Shimmers was one of their favorite games.
In other situations the swordsman would certainly also agree with the brother of the heart, but not on that occasion when he was being strictly punished by his own friends. A part of his heart loved that tickling treatment, but another part was outraged by the way he was being treated by everyone. However, he could not think much of it, since tickling prevented him from concentrating.
Tickling also continued to torment Hector. He was completely exhausted, his whole body aching with laughter, tears streaming down his cheeks, dry throat and sweat covering his body from head to toe. The boy had no idea how much time had passed, he just knew that he was still being tortured with tickling by Redemption and Cheer without the right to rest. The medical bear was enjoying every minute, watching the prisoner's reactions by scratching his armpits. As for the vain young bear, she was spreading her claws up and down the soles of his feet, deftly tickling up to the big toes, enjoying seeing and feeling them trying to escape.
- Stohohohop! I cahahahan nohohohot stahahahand it ahahanymohohore! - Hector cried desperately - My feheheheet are buhuhuhurning wihihihith so muhuhuhuch tihihihickling!
- Mihihihine tohohohoo! Plehehehease stohohohop! - Shimmers begged as he continued to stir his feet and curl up his toes, though he could not help avoid the tickles because his ankles were firmly attached to the metal rings.
True he just shook his head and smiled, scratching the bear's chin as she continued to tickle his armpits.
- No, I will not stop my wittle cub, you deserve all that attention. Besides... - she smiled wickedly, stopping the scratch on his chin and pressing a button beside the bed - You're very stubborn, and you do not want to keep your feet up voluntarily. Then you will have a little help.
Instantly, the mechanical hands held Shimmers toes pulled back and away from each other, while the thick metal rings closed around each toe, preventing them from moving. Already the matriarch smiled and sank her claws into the swordsman's armpits, scratching quickly up and down.
- My feheheheheet, plehehehease Cheheheer! - Hector cried, feeling ashamed of all the attention the pink bear was giving at his feet, as he tried desperately to curl his toes, especially when she tickled them, but the boy also suffered from the ruthless tickling of Redemption in his armpits, and he clenched his fists and tried to pull his arms, but the restrictions did not break - Rehehedemptihihion, my ahahaharms ache! Stohohohop, plehehehease!
- You mean your arms hurt, Hector? That's nice - the doctor laughed as her eyes trembled eagerly at the sensitivity of the young prisoner's armpits, looking directly into his face to see what he was suffering as she continued tickling cheerfully up and down under his arms.
- I'm sorry, Hector, but your feet are now all mine - Cheer said with a giggle as she scratched the defenseless soles even more, before she quickly scratched his toes again, switching between them to keep Hector laughing.
- Nohohoho, plehehehease! Stohohohop Mahahahama, do nohohohot thihihihis with mehehehe! Please! - Shimmers shouted, swaying from side to side in the face of so many tickles, feeling more helpless than ever.
- But of course I can, after all you've done something wrong and need to be punished for it - Trueheart said with a smile from ear to ear, nuzzling noses with the bear and continuing to scratch his armpits - And you're so cute while you're laughing... I bet you're very sensitive to tickling, are you not?
Saying this, she quickly scraped his underarms up and down as the mechanical hands focused again on the swordsman's toes, which felt his cheeks flushing because of her nuzzling nose. Again he tried to move his arms unsuccessfully as he closed his eyes and opened his mouth wide to laugh out loud.
- Yehehehes, I ahahaham vehehehery sehehehensitihihihive! - he begged as he moved his hands in vain in the restraints above his head, trying in vain to curl his toes and pull his legs up, as well as moving his waist back and forth trying to hide his belly, but his restraints kept him firmly stuck - Please True, stohohohop, please! Enohohohough Redehehehemption! Cheheheheer! I cahahahan nohohohot tahahahake it ahahahanymohohohore!
- Well, being sensitive to tickling is common to all Carebears and Carebear Cousins - commented the matriarch cheerfully, scratching up and down the dimples of his armpits - I think that's because our feelings are more intense than normal to flow through the Stare, my dear cub. Although Hector is not a Care Bear and is laughing as much as you, my dear little cub.
And with a mischievous wink, she continued to scratch the swordsman's armpits even more rapidly, while the mechanical hands also began to tickle the cushions at the tips of his toes and across the soles of his feet, causing Shimmers begging still more. And the same was true of Hector, who continued to be tortured by Redemption and Cheer without any mercy, having his feet and armpits stimulated to the maximum.
Meanwhile, in the Hall of Hearts, Noble Heart followed the reactions of the other members of the Care bear Family. As he expected, his threats and the presence of Aqua Bear and Lonesomeheart were enough that no bear or cousin tried to flee the site. And though most continued to show concern and fear, the spirit of some began to give way and appreciate the fact that Shimmers and Hector was being tickled non-stop. Among them were Playful Heart and Funshine Bear, who were already talking animatedly about their experiences, and also Wish Bear and Surprise Bear although they tried to demonstrate otherwise.
But there were some who were still nonconformists with the situation, as was the case with Tenderheart and Braveheart, who kept insisting with the patriarch that he stop with that torture.
- Please, Noble Heart, we ask you again, make Trueheart stop! - said the brown bear in a clearly distressed tone - We have all learned the lesson, including Shimmers and Hector, and no one else will challenge you!
- Our friend no longer needs to be tortured, we will respect you and Trueheart - the lion said worriedly - You can trust us!
- No way, they will continue to be tortured, and I'm sure you're enjoying listening to the desperate laughter of our two dear prisoner - said the horse with a wink, looking toward his adopted cubs - Besides, Trueheart and I want to make sure that we can trust you again, and so you really need to demonstrate that you have learned the lesson.
At that moment everyone heard Hector and Shimmers beg at same time to curl their toes, and this made the majority curl their toes or firmly support the soles of their feet on the floor, afraid that Noble Heart would start tickling all of them.
- No, Noble, please make them stop! - Friend Bear begged, trying to cover his ears to hear no more laughter - This is very humiliating for all of us!
- Well, that's exactly the idea, my friend - said the horse maliciously - You'll all have to hear Shimmers and Hector be punished for 24 hours to make you feel humiliated and scared... And do not try to run away, Bright Heart, or you'll join him in the choir!
Really the raccoon had walked slowly toward the back door, and had his hand on the doorknob when he heard Noble's words and blanched with fear, since he was one of the few who did not accept that situation
- That's not fair, Noble - said the inventor, swallowing hard and trebling with fear seeing the horse wiggle his fingers - The way you're acting, we're already prisoners!
- And you'd better not try to resist, or you'll really be a prisoner - Noble said dryly - You're all good cubs and you should obey your parents, so you better sit down and just enjoy the show. Or Aqua and Lonesome will start tickling some of you...
The sea bear and the warrior female bear looked at each other in delight, while the others just swallowed and ran to sit on their chairs to prevent Noble Heart from fulfilling that threat. The horse just smiled maliciously and also sat back relaxed listening to the tickled prisoner's desperate cries and the nuisance that it did to bears and cousins. He did not know exactly why, but he loved to see that suffering.
What no one had really realized was that a faint black mist had slowly begun to surround the Hall of Hearts and enter through the doors and windows, being sucked in by the bears and cousins with each breath. As the minutes passed, most members of the Care Bear Family began to feel a strange sense of disinterest in what happened with Shimmers. It was as though they were slowly beginning to not care to see the swordsman suffer, and they were amused at the desperate laughter of the prisoner bear.
Only a few, like Grams Bear, her grandchildren, Bright Heart and Goodluck Bear, stood firm in their conviction that this was something very wrong, but they were also tempted to ask Nobleheart and Trueheart to continue torturing Shimmers. And that was something that bothered them, for they could not understand where this temptation came from wanting the suffering of the friend.
That way, without anyone realizing it, the Care Bear Family was gradually giving in to the No Heart spell and giving the possibility of being attacked by the wizard and his allies without being able to defend himself.
