The boy stopped; this was bizarre, was that a grin at one of the other boys
I just saw? I couldn't be sure. Forts stepped forward, Jeffries forced a
smile

`Please don't let him hit me Mr Dragon'

With that he leapt into Forts arms, Forts dropping his tea towel as he did,
Jeffries hands seemed all over the place; even gripping Fort's cock for a
moment. Forts didn't mention it, just comforted the boy

`Ron, it's okay, you're not in trouble'

I looked at the assembled and couldn't help thinking I had been had.

Operation Pied Piper – Part 98d


Archie continues the Story


It was a strange scene that met my eyes, a naked Forts holding and
comforting one of the new boys; Athol, looking perplexed and holding onto a
Bugle and Davy standing with a white towel round his waist. I heard Fort's
speaking to the lad.

`Ron, it's okay, you're not in trouble'

At this Athol had let out an audible sigh; he nodded to me, acknowledging
my arrival and then turned to Fort's.

`Son, I don't like being lied too, this is not a good start'

`But Dad, Ron didn't know'

`Didn't he?

Athol, shook his head and turned away, I glanced at the boy in Fort's arms,
he was smiling; I caught his eye and he immediately buried his face into
Fort's chest hair, his fingers curling it round them; then he whined.

`I won't have to go away will I?

Fort's smiled down and pinched the lads nose'

`No of course you won't Ron. Maybe we can start a new tradition of the
school being woken by a Bugle call everyday'

So, this kid was Ron, he nodded enthusiastically at Fort's idea. Athol spun
round; he had obviously been listening to the conversation; his face was
flushed, not a good sign.

`And just who is going to be supervising that? Making sure, young Ron our
Bugler is up on time every morning, YOU?

Davy still hadn't said anything; it was obvious this was one discussion he
wanted to stay out of. Fort's lowered Ron back to the floor, he stood in
his short kilt; the kid looked cute, he wrapped his arm round Fort's hairy
thigh and leaned his head back against him, just to the left of Forts cock
and balls.

Fort's was silent for a few minutes and then nodded.

`Yes, I will make sure he is up and ready each day'

Athol glanced skywards, shaking his head

`Okay, fine. Right, you had better go and get dressed'

He nodded at Fort's and then dropped to his hunkers and looked straight at
Ron.

`You young man, never, never lie to me again, if you do, you will be
punished. Now back to your dormitory and get ready for breakfast, Forts,
Davy can you wait a minute'

Ron looked up into Fort's eyes and then leant forward and after a cheeky
grin kissed the exposed end of Forts cock, before running for the door and
heading out into the corridor. Athol calling after him

`RON, walk, we have a no running rule in the school'

A little voice shouted

`Soreee'

I went and close the door, Athol had turned and was facing Fort's and Davy,
when the metallic clunk, had us all turning round.

`Good morning'

`Gary, I do wish you wouldn't sneak around behind the walls'

Athol sounded quite sharp.

`Sorry, I heard the Bugle and thought I might be able to help'

Athol nodded and sat down at his desk

`Okay thank you, but, I am really not comfortable about you using the
hidden passageways to get around the Castle; I like to think my
conversations are private'

Gary's smile left his face, he glanced at each of us.

`I can assure you Athol, I would not repeat anything I overheard, you have
my word on that'

I stepped forward.

Gary, I am sure that's not what Athol meant, you will have to excuse us,
it's been a long night'

I saw Athol's eyes watching me, luckily Gary nodded and stepped back, he
turned to Fort's.

`Morning Drageon, are you still wanting me to teach you to drive?

Gary left the words hanging and turned back to Athol.

`That's if of course, your father is happy with that'

Fort's was grinning and nodding, his eyes imploring Athol

`Dad, please can I, please'

I watched Fort's face, any annoyance at Gary from yesterday seemed to have
vanished. Now all eyes in the room were on Athol, he glanced towards me,
Forts followed his eyes to mine; I looked away, saying nothing. Athol stood

`Well, if your "mother" doesn't have any objection, I am sure I don't'

Fort's covered the eight feet of floor between him and Athol in two bounds,
leaping up and wrapping his legs round his dads waist.

`Thank you Dad, thank you'

Athol was finally smiling; now that was a first, since my arrival.

`Right, down you get you great lump and go and get some clothes on, I will
speak to Gary about lessons, you and Davy need to get these three rogues
riding horses, so you can do your camp'

He kissed Fort's on the lips as his son dropped his feet back to the floor.

`Now off you go'

Fort's was grinning like the preverbal Cheshire cat, he grabbed Davy and
kissed him and then pulled him from the room. I would have to speak to
Davy, he didn't look happy; something was obviously bothering him. Athol
turned to Gary; he waited until Forts had closed the door.

`Gary, I wanted to talk to you, Fort's was quiet upset at what you said to
him yesterday in the car'

`Oh, he seemed pleased to see me today'

`Well, of course, your offering to teach him to drive'

`Athol, what are you saying?

`Gary, I don't want you talking anymore to Forts about duty. Or more
importantly about his right to be the next Laird; do you understand?

Gary glanced at me; his mouth was growing tight.

`Can I speak freely, in front of Archie?

Athol sighed

`Gary, don't be ridiculous, you know you can'

Gary pulled himself to his full height and turned face on to Athol; I was
watching two bulls weighing each other up.

`Right,...'

That was the only word out of Gary's mouth as the fire alarm started
sounding throughout the building. We all glanced at each other, Athol was
heading for the door

`This will have to wait'

The three of us ran out into the corridor; straight into Mr Evans. Athol
barked at him

`What is it?

Rhys, shook his head

`I have no idea; I am still trying to work out which button has been
pressed'

Athol nodded

`Don't worry about that, just get everyone out'

Evans turned and began shouting instructions to some of the other Masters
who were appearing and to Davy and Fort's who came stumbling down the
stairs. Gregor appeared, with Niki

`It's not the kitchen Athol, everything is fine here'

`Thank you Gregor, get everyone out'

Athol, took off at a run and began running up the stairs, Gary when to
assist Mr Evans, I followed Athol. I caught up with him at the top of the
second-floor landing.

`It had better not be him again'

He snapped as he ran towards the First-year dormitories.

Davy takes up the story


With the excitement of the fire alarm over and breakfast eaten and
everything cleared away, it was time to introduce our three new boys to the
horses. While Fort's, Niki, Gary and McPhee, went down to the stables to
get the horses and ponies ready; I was given the job of getting Ron, Paul
and Harry in to the riding gear Athol had arranged for them.

It was funny listening to them talk, all really pleased to be back in
trousers and underpants; well for the moment anyway. I was just helping
Paul on with his little jacket, when I felt the sting in the back of my
leg: remember I was still in my kilt.

`Fuck, ouch'

I spun round, Ron was flexing his riding crop, he was giggling

`You swore, that's naughty'

`Ron, that hurt, now your not to hit people with them, or the horses or you
will end up thrown off, they are just for gentle encouragement'

I know your thinking I should have taken it off him and hit him with it,
but, he had only been here less than 48 hours and had already been in
trouble several times. Finally, they were all dressed, I checked them over;
they actually looked quite cute and definitely looked the part.

`Come on then boys, out we go'

With Paul holding my hand, we went down the staircase towards the Castle
entrance. Athol was standing by the breakfast gong, he never said anything,
just watched us; I could see Ron's eyes never left him; was it a healthy
respect or something else. Athol had been furious and had not believed
Ron's explanation about the fire alarm; but he couldn't disprove it, so he
had to let it stand. As we got to the bottom of the stairs Athol broke his
silence.

`Have a good time boy's

Believe it or not Ron was first to answer, he grinned and smiled

`Thank you Mr MacDonald Sir'

Athol, winked at me and turned shaking his head, he headed into the dining
room.

*

It was a beautiful morning, the gravel crunched under our feet as we walked
over to the paddock. The sun caused me to squint, Forts, Gary and McPhee,
were all in their riding gear, standing with Niki who was in that olive
suit he seemed to favour.

`Hey, your all looking very smart'

Forts took a couple of steps towards us

`Hello boys'

Ron smiled broadly and grabbed Forts hand.

`I can see your big cock again'

With that Ron grabbed the fat tube in Fort's jodhpurs. Fort's grabbed his
hand

`Hey little man, you're not supposed to do that'

There was that face again, Ron looked to the ground and sniffed loudly;
Fort's dropped to his knees

`Hey come on don't get upset, give me a hug, but no willy touching in
public'

He ruffled Ron's hair; I couldn't help thinking those last few words were
going to cause him a load of trouble. He stood up again, Ron was smiling
broadly once more, still holding Fort's hand.

`Right, none of you have ever ridden before is that correct?

Gary stood with his hands on his hips; the three all shook their heads

`Okay well, little Niki here is going to show you how easy it is, we will
have you all doing this, by lunchtime'

The three looked at each other. I could see the boys were all apprehensive.

`Shall we have a look at the horses?

I ushered Harry and Paul forwards, Ron joined us finally letting go of
Forts hand; but still glancing at Fort's cock, whenever he could. We walked
slowly over to the row of horses and ponies tethered to the fence. I turned
to Fort's

`Come on, introduce the boys to the horses and ponies'

Forts smiled; he loved those horses. He walked up to Pegasus and blew into
his muzzle; Pegasus snorted and nuzzled into Forts chest.

`This is Pegasus; he is the boss'

Paul tugged at my hand

`We don't have to go on him do we?

Fort's heard him and gave a chuckle, he got down on his hunkers

`Don't you want too?

Beresford shook his head and I felt him grip my hand tighter.

`I do, I do'

There's a surprise, Ron pushed past us and grabbed hold of Fort's
again. Fort's smiled.

`I think he is even a bit big for you Ron'

Another, ruffle of the kids hair as he stood up. Fort's then went on to
introduce Thunder, Baxter and Lightening and three of the Shetland
ponies. I smiled down at Paul

`Is that more the size you like?

He nodded, but still looked concerned.

`Hey there is no need to worry, I promise you, it will be fun'

I wasn't sure I had Pauls full confidence. Gary moved in front again

`Boys, which do you think Niki should ride? He is small like you, so maybe
one of the ponies, what do you think?

Niki's little face screwed up and he pointed at Pegasus, there was a gasp
from the boys. Niki smiled and gave a little run, he flipped up into the
air and landed on Pegasus's back; his arms out stretched. Fort's let out a
chuckle and untied Pegasus.

`Go on Niki, show them how it is done'

Niki dropped to the saddle and with Pegasus untied gripped the reins and
manoeuvred him out of the line of horses, with a shout and a kick; Pegasus
and Niki galloped off down the paddock, to more gasps from the boys.

`Move up to the fence boys, you don't want to miss this'

We all waited in anticipation; with another shout, Niki galloped past us,
standing on the saddle the reins between his teeth, then back out of sight
once more; another yell and this time he galloped past facing backwards;
what followed was amazing, again at a full gallop, Niki, slid round and
under the horse, pulling himself back upright having gone right under
Pegasus belly, between those pounding hooves. McPhee was stood clapping
slowly, he grinned and turned to Fort's.

`Not like the first time Forts; Pegasus, recognises a true horse man'

Fort's nodded

`Yes he is amazing, they both are'

For his final trick, Niki came galloping straight at us again standing on
Pegasus's back; Forts, obviously sensed something was not right, so did
Gary. Pegasus stumbled, just as Niki was about to somersault off his back;
instead of a controlled and planned dismount; Niki was flung into the air,
his arms and legs flailing as he tried to get back his balance.  Gary was
over the fence and into the paddock and somehow he caught Niki in mid-air;
the two of them landing with a fud on the ground, Fort and McPhee arrived
at them seconds later.

The boys and me had all been watching in silence; Paul had his little face
covered with his hands; I was about to get them all away, when the silence
was broken by hysterical laughter as the pile of bodies stood up, Niki was
stood with one foot on Forts and one on Gary's shoulders, he raised his
arms and with another shout, he flipped into the air and performed a
perfect dismount.

`I want to learn how to do that'

It was Ron again.

Gary Takes up the story


I spent the morning helping with the three new arrivals; as Forts, McPhee
and I tried to introduce them to horse riding and give them a basic first
lesson; well, it had been a laugh and at least no one had got hurt, not
even Niki, who had amazed the boys with his horse-riding skills, despite
nearly coming a cropper, when Pegasus stumbled.

With the horses back in their stalls, I had pressed Forts to get changed
ready for his first driving lesson. So here we were, Fort's was sat next to
me in Gethin's Bessy, as I explained all the knobs pedals and principles of
driving.

`Come on let me drive us out into the country, you can watch what I am
doing and then once we find somewhere nice and quiet, you can have a go'

I heard the Castle door open and saw Landers wave.

`Oh Gary, here is the pack lunch you requested'

Gregor came over carrying a small hamper, his face all smiles.

`Hi Fort's, I put some nice bits in for you both, see you later; looks like
it is going to be a lovely afternoon'.

`That's fantastic Gregor, thank you, just put it on the back seat will you'

Fort's turned to me

`I didn't think we were going to be that long, I told Davy, we would only
be an hour, I had better let him know'

I let out a sigh

`Fort's Davy is a big boy he will be fine'

Before he could answer, I turned the key and Bessy roared into life, I
glanced up at the staffroom window; Athol was looking down at us, his face
blank, his eyes fixed on me. We hadn't had a chance to see each other again
after the fire alarm went off; I had made sure of that.

I could have kissed little Ron; in fact, I fully intended too and soon; I
chuckled to myself, Athol's face when Ron claimed before bursting into
tears, that he had never seen a fire alarm button before and wondered what
it did; It was only because Davy and Archie stepped in I think the kid
escaped with his life; but had Athol seen his little wink at Forts? That I
wasn't sure, but I did see Forts had blushed and looked away, that little
kid was working him a treat.

Another glance up at the staffroom window; those piercing eyes were still
on me, I gave him a friendly wave, engaged the first gear and pulled away,
down the drive.

We had been taking turns driving now for most of the afternoon; I had
started to call Fort's by his first name Drageon; he had looked at me
strangely to start with, but now just accepted it. I glanced at my watch; a
present from Athol; Thank you brother.

`Drageon turn left here'

We pulled in through the low white stone gate posts, our vision suddenly
filled with the lofty tower houses staring down at us, either side of a
separate set of high gate posts, topped with Dragons.

`Where are we?

`Just pull up and park; here, by the tower'

`What are we doing here?

`This is one of the entrances to Dunecht House, home of the Earl of
Cowdray, but we are just going to park here and walk down to Loch Skene, to
have the pack lunch Gregor did for us'

I got out of the car and headed off towards the sign post for the Loch.

`Come on Drageon, don't forget the pack lunch'

Fort's caught me up, his eyes taking in the place.

`I think this is where Gethin and Callum brought Davy once'

I didn't answer, but kept walking, after five minutes we were on a grassy
slope overlooking the Loch.

`This will do Drageon'

Fort's laid out the blanket, then glanced at me

`Gary, why do you keep calling me Drageon and not Fort's?

`Well, that's your correct name isn't it; his Imperial Highness Drageon
Drageonivanov, Romanov, Prince of the Blood Imperial'

Fort stared at the ground

`And, on the death of your great uncle his Imperial Highness Grand Duke
Truorwskoy Romanov, as I understand it you will become Grand Duke
Drageonivanov, Romanov.'

`Why do you keep adding Romanov to my name?

`It should always be added; just like the Grand Duke, His title is his
Imperial Highness Grand Duke Truorwskoy Romanov; but for ease and in
familiar circles, there is no need to add Romanov to the name, everyone
knows he is am member of the royal family, as are you'

Forts stared out at the Loch.

`Drageon, whether you like it or not, you are a Romanov, one of the few
surviving family members directly related to the last Tsar by blood'

Forts didn't answer.

`Drageon, do you know or have any idea how many of your close family
members "the Romanovs" have been killed, just because of who they were?

Again, Forts said nothing.

`Think long and hard Drageon, it is highly likely that the Tsar Nicolas the
second is dead and I imagine so are the entire royal family'

Fort's stood up

`Can we go back to the Castle please'

`Eighteen, yes eighteen other close members of your family have been killed
by the Bolsheviks, most between June 1918 and January 1919. Surely this
must mean something to you?

`Gary, I don't want to talk about it, can we head back to the Castle now
please'

`Oh, you want to run away do you? Run away from your duty, just like your
adopted father did'

Forts glared at me

`That's not fair'

`Drageon listen to yourself; who said life was fair, it was one of your own
relatives the Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna, who said "The more
advantage you get in life; the more responsibility you have to bare", look
at her life, did she run away when her husband was blown up? No, she knew
her duty'

Fort's face was going red his eyes watering

`Why are you doing this to me?

`Because you have a duty; so, man up boy, you can't just run away from
hundreds of years of tradition, anymore than you can assume a title you are
not entitled too; what are you intending to do hide behind that too?'

Forts began grabbing the blanket scrunching it into an untidy ball

`I want to go back to the Castle; Now Gary!'

I thought back to all that the Grand Duke had said to me on the phone and
what was written in his letters. Had I pushed Fort's far enough? Or was one
more shove needed?

`What? you want to run back to a total stranger; call him daddy and get him
to tell me off? You don't deserve to be called Romanov; you're a person of
no honour'

We drove back in silence until we got to the stables.

`Gary, drop me here, I want to check on the horses'

I stopped the car and he clambered out, he didn't look back or say anything
else. I left him walking into the stable yard, parking Bessy back in the
rear castle garage. I grabbed the hamper and made my way into the Castle
and up the stairs.

`Oh Gary, how did it go? I hope you enjoyed the food'

Gregor stood smiling at me, I handed him the food hamper.

`We didn't eat any of it'

`Pardon? What was wrong with it?

`Nothing'

I felt Gregor come up behind me

`Gary, what's wrong? Where is Forts?

`How should I know, I am not his keeper, he is a big boy now'

I left Gregor open mouthed, ducked into the first room I came too and
returned to the tunnels behind the walls.

Athol continues the story


`That's great news Davy, I will get Archie to take Fort's or maybe Gary,
into Inverurie and see if they can pick up any old fur material, we must
get Ms Duncan something nice for Christmas, she is amazing'

`Gregor, is everything okay?

`Hello Athol, Davy, well, I don't know really. I thought Gary and Forts
were out together for the day, I made them up a lovely picnic, but'

`But what Gregor?

`Well Gary, just gave it back to me, they haven't eaten it and when I asked
where Fort's was, he snapped my head off, saying " he wasn't his keeper"'

`Where is Gary now?

`He went in there'

Gregor pointed to a near by room. I looked at Davy

`Hang on here, I want to speak to Gary, I should have done it earlier'

I opened the door, the room was empty

`Shit'

`Athol what is it?

Davy was starting to look concerned

`Gary is not here, he has obviously used another hidden door, he could be
anywhere'.

Davy, turned back to Gregor

`What did he say about Forts?

I interrupted.

`Davy never mind, go and get Archie, we will find Fort's soon enough'

I nodded rapidly with my head at Gregor to get him to go; before Davy, went
into melt down. Davy set off at a run for the staffroom, I stood alone in
the small room. I couldn't stop myself, I found myself shouting and banging
on the walls.

`Gary, I know your fucking there, this stops and it stops now, leave my son
alone, leave my family alone. Turn your fucking anger at me not him'

I slumped to the floor, tears running down my cheeks
