Date: Sun, 27 Mar 2016 17:59:26 -0700 From: Douglas DD Subject: The Survivors (Revised) Chapter 4 This story contains sex between minor boys and teenagers. If such things offend you, or you are not at least 18 years of age, then please don't read on. This story is not true, but who knows, maybe someday it will be. Please donate generously to Nifty to help continue the flow of stories. There has been a request for a list of characters. I figure if one person wants it, there are probably more who would like to see one, so here it is. Please note that the ages are approximate. I changed them on my spreadsheet as the boys grew older. I used the age I think the boys were at the start of the story. You no doubt will find differences if you dig through the first few chapters. I apologize for that, but I didn't set up the spreadsheet to make a list and I don't have the time to dig through the chapters. But at least you have a little idea of who is who. I hope.

Breakfast was served from 6:00 to 10:00, whenever anyone felt like eating. Douglas always seemed to wake up early and today was up around 7:30. He showered, dressed, and went into the living room of the cabin. He was hungry and left a note that he was going to breakfast. He headed out into the hall. He stopped when he got to Scooter's cabin wondering if Scooter was awake yet. His answer came quickly. The door opened, and Scooter stepped out wearing a white T shirt and blue shorts. To his surprise Douglas felt his knees shake when he saw Scooter. The feeling lasted only momentarily, but Douglas wondered what caused him to feel this way. Scooter felt a warm glow throughout his body when he saw Douglas. He couldn't believe his luck that Douglas was standing right outside his cabin. "HiYa, Douglas." "Hey, Scooter. Are you off to breakfast?" "Yeah. My dad got up a long time ago." "My parents are still sleeping." Douglas laughed, and so did Scooter. Scooter loved Douglas's laugh. The two boys walked up the hall to the dining room and found a table to eat at together. They talked and chatted like they had been friends for years, telling each other about their friends and lives on Earth. Douglas thought Scooter was so lucky that he would be going back to Earth. Douglas ached for a minute because he missed his old home and friends so much. While they were finishing breakfast, Scooter's leg brushed up against Douglas's. Douglas felt a shiver go through him at the touch. The leg kept pushing against his, then got pulled away. Douglas wanted to tell Scooter it was okay to keep it there, wanted to look at him and smile about it. But he was afraid Scooter would see it all wrong. Scooter had pushed his leg up against Douglas on purpose. He wanted to see how Douglas would react. He was disappointed when Douglas did nothing, but kind of happy that Douglas didn't pull his leg away when he touched it. The boys finished breakfast and walked back to their cabins to brush their teeth. They agreed to meet in ten minutes to head for the games room. Warren woke up, finding that he wasn't feeling too badly. He took his morning medicine, then stepped into the shower. He soaped himself up, grabbed his dick and quickly made it hard. He closed his eyes as the warm water flowed over him, and rubbed his hard dick, thinking of his cousin Noah, who was cute and hot, but someone he never was able to touch. Warren shot hard against the shower wall, and the water washed his cum off. He was feeling good. It was time to leave his cabin and get breakfast. He was hungry, really hungry. Warren finished dressing and checked his map for the way to the dining hall. He was in #2. Turning a corner on the way, another boy came rushing the other way and bumped into him. He was about Warren's size, but younger. "Hey!" the boy yelled. "Watch where you're going!" "I'm sorry," Warren said. "I was checking my map trying to get to dining hall #2." Warren wanted to tell him that he was the one who was in a big hurry, but decided he didn't want to start any trouble. The boy looked at Warren. He hadn't seen this boy before. But he was small, quiet, shy. He decided to see what could be done with this kid. "My name is Jordan. My dad is Chief Engineer. I know this ship. Let me help you get there." "I'm Warrenton. But you can call me Warren." "Warrenton? Like the city in Florida?" "Yeah. I was named after the city." "Cool, I was born there," Jordan said. Warren smiled. He already was making a friend. Jordan smiled too. He was finding himself a second victim. Jordan led Warren to the dining hall where they found a table and sat down. Just as they got their meals, another boy came into the hall. It was Jeremy. He saw the two boys eating alone and walked to their table. "Hi. Okay if I sit down here?" Warren looked up at the sharp looking athletic boy and his heart started racing. He pointed to a chair and nodded yes. He was having trouble talking. He was having trouble eating. Jeremy sat down and punched in his order. He introduced himself to Warren and Jordan, and they introduced themselves to him. Jeremy looked at the two of them and concluded they were both attractive. And it looked like maybe they were making friends. Then Jeremy looked closer. Jordan was younger, and very nice looking. But when he looked into Jordan's eyes he saw coldness. He looked into Warren's eyes and saw warmth and friendliness. From his study of the boys he saw two things. He saw someone he wanted as a friend and he saw someone who he had better watch very carefully. Jordan asked Warren if he wanted to go to the games room with him. Warren was about to agree, when Jeremy asked Warren if he wanted to sit in the lounge with him and talk. Warren was torn between the two. As he looked at Jeremy, he couldn't believe this boy was interested in talking to him. But if he was, he wanted to take advantage of it because he knew he had an instant crush on him. Warren told Jordan he was going to talk to Jeremy. "Fine, be that way. Don't be my friend. I'll remember this." Jordan got up, and walked quickly out of the dining hall. "What's wrong with him?" Warren asked. "I dunno." Warren and Jeremy sat in the deck lounge getting to know each other. They both felt something for each other. While Warren was shy, quiet, and small, Jeremy was outgoing, daring, and athletic. But somehow they were attracted to each other in a way they couldn't explain. To Jeremy, part of it was Warren's eyes. They showed somebody who was warm and deep. Jeremy kept looking at those eyes, loving them. He wondered if he was attracted to quiet boys. Warren was a quiet boy, and Brian had been a quiet boy as well. Jeremy flinched a little thinking of Brian. Brian was the only thing on earth he missed. He missed his "little bro" and the fun things they did...not just the sex, but everything. They both had been so opposite. Big and small. Quiet and loud. Rich and poor. Sickly and athletic. Hating having to leave Earth and ready for the big adventure on AO IV. Warren and Jeremy talked for almost two hours. They felt like best friends by the time they were done. "Watch out for Jordan," Jeremy warned. "Why?" Warren asked. "He seems nice." "I don't know. Something about his eyes." For some reason Jeremy thought a lot about eyes and what they told. "Remember how he acted at the end of breakfast." "Yeah. I'll watch him," Warren said. "I trust you." And he did. He didn't know why this boy who was so opposite liked him, but he was happy he did. After what had happened that morning with Jeremy, he was happy he decided to leave his room and have breakfast. They hung together until after lunch when Warren went back to his cabin to take a nap. Jeremy went to the games room, which was full of kids. He knew who the older ones were already. He saw Scooter and Douglas sitting together watching a vid. He wondered about those two. They seemed awful close. Then he shook his head. He knew every boy or pair of friends couldn't be like him. Scooter and Douglas were close, sometimes touching they were so close. They wanted to be closer, but each one was afraid to make the move, both because they didn't want to be seen doing it and because they were afraid of offending their new friend and losing him. Their eyes were on each other more than on the vid. Alex and Stevie hung out with Mike a lot during the day. Ryan and Travis joined them too. Jordan hung with Matthew a lot, but he also started working on Ryan. And when Warren came in, he invited him to play some video games. Warren did, and later Jeremy joined them. Jordan acted like nothing had happened at breakfast. Robert Charles made sure everybody saw him hanging with the girls. He thought it strange that, other than Travis, none of the boys was paying much attention to the girls. There were only four of them, and he figured everybody would be competing to get a hold of one. He had the prettiest, and showed her off. But nobody seemed to be impressed. Faggots, he thought. That's what they were, a whole bunch of faggots. Which faggot ass should I kick first for Lisa, he thought? He looked over at Mike. Nah, not yet. He wanted to show Mike just who he was. He looked at Ryan and Travis and smiled. Suddenly it was closing time for the games room. Everyone started heading back for their cabins. Scooter and Douglas stopped in front of Scooter's cabin. They looked in each other's eyes. Douglas couldn't take his eyes away from Scooter. And Scooter stared right back at Douglas. Douglas wanted so badly to kiss him on the lips. It was all he could do to hold himself back. Scooter was feeling exactly the same way. They looked at each other. Neither one moved. Then Douglas broke the spell. "Night, Scooter." He took off quickly for his cabin. Scooter watched him go, kind of stunned and relieved at the same time. He had almost kissed Douglas. He couldn't believe how close it was. The boys ran into their bedrooms, tore off their clothes, got on their beds, naked and hard, started jerking off, each one thinking about the other and the kiss that didn't happen. In two different rooms, at the exact same time, they cummed. A few decks higher up Robert Charles caught up to Jordan. "Hey, kid, I want to talk to you. Wait up." "The name is Jordan, not kid. What the fuck do you want?" "Calm down, kid..er...Jordan. Look, I'm sorry for how I acted yesterday. I guess I wanted to get some things straight right away. But you're right, this is your ship..you live here." Jordan looked at Robert Charles. He wasn't sure he trusted his sudden change in attitude, but he figured he would play along with it for now. "I've been watching you in the games room," Robert Charles went on. "I think you and I could make a good team. I saw how you handled some of the boys in there. I could help you convince some of these losers that you should be on top. What do you think?" Jordan didn't trust Robert Charles for one second. But he figured he would use him like he used everybody each trip he took. He might be 12 and small, but he was smart and knew how get the advantage. "Ok. You have a deal. But....I'm the boss. This is my ship." They shook hands. Each boy walked away thinking he had won something from the other boy. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ Douglas woke up around 8:00. The e-mail light on his computer was on. Douglas missed his computer at home. He could talk to people all around the world and even in Luna City. This computer had email from around the ship. It also had games, music, vids, and could get information from the ship's library. There was a green light on top of the monitor that glowed when email had arrived. This was the first time he had seen it on. He got out of bed, hard with morning wood, turned on the monitor, and accessed his e- mail. He had two of them. One was from Scooter and the other was from Mr. Z, who he knew was going to be the teacher of the older kids in the ship school. He read Mr. Z's first. Keep the best for last, he thought. To all students of the Senior School: We will be arriving at Mars right after lunch. Any students wishing a quick tour of the surface should report to the shuttle bay at 1:00. We will be back by dinner. MrZ He opened up Scooter's mail next. HiYa Douglas Just wanted to say good morning and I hope you have a super awesome day. Are you going on the tour? I am. <3 Scooter He typed an answer. Scooter, Thanx for the hi. If you're going so am I. I will see you at 9:00 for breakfast. I will be at ur door. Douglas At 9:00 he walked out of his cabin and headed for Scooter's cabin. He was happy when he saw Scooter already waiting in the hall. Scooter walked up to him and gave him a big hug. Douglas was stunned for a moment, then he gave Scooter a hug back. "I think hugs are a great way to greet people you like," Scooter said. "I guess that means you like me," Douglas replied. Scooter smiled at him. They walked to breakfast, standing close together. Travis was at a table and they both sat with him. He said he was going on the tour too. They all agreed it should be fun. Alex and Stevie were staying behind. Marie had arranged for them to be able to practice their music in a cargo bay where the loudness wouldn't bother anybody. They hadn't touched their instruments since they got on board and were excited to finally be able to play. After breakfast they went to the games room. Most of the boys there said they were going to go to the surface of Mars. At noon they headed for lunch. Douglas and Scooter ate with Doug's mom and dad and Scooter's dad. They all had a good talk. They wished the boys a good time on Mars. The "Starkeeper" had entered Mars orbit during lunch. The "Moonduster," one of the ship's ancillary shuttles, was going to be used for the trip to the surface. Douglas, Scooter, Travis, Mike, Ryan, Robert Charles, Jeremy, and Jordan were going. Alex and Stevie were going to play and sing, and Warren didn't feel well. Two girls, Lisa and Megan, were going, and little Matthew was going as well. Robert Charles walked over to Jordan and whispered something in his ear. Jordan smiled. They strapped in and the shuttle left the ship. The boys strained to get views of the ship, Mars, and maybe even Mars's two small moons. When they landed they were told they were going to get a view of a hydroponic farm and atmosphere station. Men had been changing the surface of Mars for over two centuries, a small part at a time, the guide told them. But now a new way of making atmosphere and making soil had been found so crops could be grown. It had been tested on Mars for the last two years and it worked over ten times faster. The equipment and the expert were now going to Alpha Orion IV, Earth's newest colony. So far, no planet had been found with any kind of life on it, and to create a colony, special farming and atmosphere making was necessary. Even now, only a small part of Mars was livable. The last part of the tour was underground. There were passages that went under some of the water farms, and you could look up through the transparent super steel. The kids stood in a small alcove and looked up. Jordan was holding Matthew's hand. Robert Charles was behind Ryan. Mike was to the left side of Ryan. Travis and Jeremy were to the other side of him. The guide told them that he was going to turn out the lights. He said it would be very, very dark, and that at first they wouldn't be able to see a thing. But after a few minutes, when they looked up, they would be able to see small glowing plants floating in the pond. The lights went out. It was so dark they couldn't even see their hands in front of their eyes. They all looked up waiting to see the green glow and moving plants. Suddenly they heard a loud thud, a moan, and someone fall to the floor. The lights went on, and Ryan was down on his knees holding his stomach. "What happened?" Mr. Z asked. Ryan couldn't talk because he was fighting to get his breath back. "I think somebody punched him in the gut." Robert Charles said. "Who? Who was standing close to him?" "Mike was right next to him," Robert Charles said. "Anybody see anybody else?" "Robert Charles was behind him," Travis said. "Yeah," Robert Charles said, "but he was hit from the front. How could I do that from behind him?" "Robert Charles wasn't even close to him," Jordan said. "He wouldn't be able to even find him and get around him in the dark. Mike just had to take one step around, and hit him. I didn't see anybody else close enough. Did you, Matthew?" He squeezed Matthew's hand real tight. "Uh...no," he said. Mike stood there not believing what he was hearing. "I..I..just want to say..to everybody, and especially Ryan. I didn't do it. I would never do anything that low." Ryan was feeling better. He looked at Mike and glared. He couldn't believe the boy who was so nice to him that first night would do that. He hated trusting people then getting burned. He finally stood up. Travis was holding him, his arm around him, telling him things were okay. Mr. Z looked at Mike. "I will deal with you when we get back to the ship." As they walked back to the shuttle Douglas and Scooter both came up to Mike. "We don't think you did it. We can't prove it other than you showed us you're not like that. There were two others who had a better chance, maybe three, but we couldn't see how close Robert Charles was. We think Jordan was lying...and we saw the look he gave Matthew when Matthew agreed with him." Scooter was doing the explaining. "Thanks, guys," Mike said. "I appreciate that." Mike looked over at Ryan. Ryan turned his face away. Mike was hurt and was going to find out who it was who really hit Ryan. He had a pretty good idea. They got to the shuttle and walked out to it. A lady and a boy came out of a waiting area and walked up to join them. The boy looked to be about 14, and as he got closer everybody could see that he was very cute. Scooter was watching them both carefully, because they looked familiar. Then he was sure. It was Brandon, after two years, it was Brandon! "BRANDON!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The boy got a surprised look on his face. "SCOOOOTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The boys ran across the tarmac and hugged each other tightly. Douglas looked at them. He suddenly knew how Ryan felt when he got slugged in the gut. Comments are welcomed. E-mail me at TheHakaanen@Hotmail.com
