This story is about sex between boys and is therefore a total fantasy. It was written by an adult for the entertainment of other adults. No children or animals were either involved or harmed in the writing of this story. Please leave now if you are not supposed to be here.

Writing the continuing saga of the Kids of Indian Spring has become a real community effort. My original intention was to conclude the Sandy Jacobs Story after Chapter 10. But my primary co-author and invaluable assistant, Pietar, convinced me that the many loose ends left open by the original author, Jonas Henley, needed to be resolved. As a result, he became the principal author of Chapters 11, 12, and 13. Thank you Pietar for your original ideas, brilliant writing and your continued dedication and commitment to this project. Now a third author, Nick, has volunteered to take on the role of crafting the future long-term direction of the story. You may recall that Nick was first involved in Chapter 12C. Please ensure you make Nick welcome by dropping him a line.

Jagger Mackey – Jagger is from a traditional old Mackey family. He is a very polite kid with shaggy dark brown hair and brown eyes. He has not started puberty yet. He has been raised to think being in the Choosing is a big honor so he keeps a proud face up front but inside he is as scared as any other boy.

Travis Jacobs – A cousin of Sandy Jacobs who lives in Cool Spring. Travis is a good looking blonde with blue eyes and freckles. Has no hair down there. A lot of Indian Spring kids view him as a show off who wants to be the center of attention. Sandy believes he just tries too hard to fit in. Since he lives in Coolspring he is probably safe from being selected.

Adan Koch – A deep Mackey with dark hair and eyes. He is thin and wiry but also quite strong and has a small patch of dark pubes. He is very close to his 2 older brothers and does not associate with town kids very much. Adan was raised to have deep respect for the Choosing.

He believes he is gay and has experimented quite a bit with sex (except for anal). At one point Stevie thought he wanted to be a bottom but has changed his mind as he wants to be able to select his partners.

His body is still smooth and his sex experience limited. He lives on the edge of deep Mackey lands but most of his friends live in town. He is a member of the Famous Five and did not fulfill his obligation to Tolley so he is starting the Choosing with a checkmark.

Carl Mackey – Carl has short brown hair and brown eyes. He is always well tanned since he spends all his free time fishing at the spring. He is regarded as one of the best fishermen around.

Henry Mackey – Henry is a real good-looking boy with blond hair and blue eyes. His body is slim and hairless. Henry is well liked by all even though he is rather shy and is known to get upset easily and cry. Surprisingly however the other boys still accepted him and just said he's sensitive. Henry lives close to the park and visits the swimming hole. Lately he has found himself becoming interested in Carl Mackey. Not in a romantic way, but he liked Carl's body.

The story continues

"Attention all 1996 Choosing Candidates. You have 2 minutes to get back up here on stage and in your spot or you will be getting a checkmark," Sandy called loudly. "This is the 2-minute warning."

As naked 12-year-olds scrambled back to their spots on the line Jason approached Sandy with a paper in his hand. "Here is a complete and accurate vote count. Read off the top 12 like a countdown and get the crowd a little pumped up. The entire list is posted on the board by the scoring table. I'm going to go over final plans with Paul so it's your show for a while."

"Got it," replied Sandy. He was excited that he would be running things, but he was also nervous. He was thinking about how Sheldon handled the countdown last year and planning his comments as he glanced at the list. "Shit!" he thought to himself when he came to Cole's name. He wondered how he would handle it when it came time to read it to the audience.

He glanced at his watch and saw the time was up so he turned to face the bent over boys. There were no empty spots so he could begin.

As he walked to the front of the stage the crowd in the bleachers quieted down since they knew he was going to read off the vote count. The 12-year-olds on stage also settled down as they wanted to know where they stood in the voting.

"We are back my Mackey brothers and I have here the results of the first round of voting. Since we have so many boys this year, I'm not going to read the entire list but it will be posted by the scoring table. I am going to give you the top 12 boys at this moment and I want to remind you that we will be picking 5 bottoms this year." The last sentence brought a cheer from the bleachers and a moan from the boys on stage.

"In the number 12 spot with 5 votes and 4 checkmarks, we have Tripp Headley," Sandy announced bringing a cheer from the audience. "Tripp was not on the list this year, but he was so interested on the goings on here he decided to join us."

A voice from the from ground just in front of the stage called out," I guess he just likes being naked with other boys," which brought a big laugh from the bleachers. Tripp instantly recognized the voice and looked up to see Kelly Tucker smiling at him.

"Fuck you Tucker," said Tripp loudly which brought an instant reaction from Sandy. Tripp realized what he had done, but it was too late. Once again Kelly Tucker had made his life miserable.

Sandy walked over to Tripp, pulled the red sharpie from his pocket and placed a fifth checkmark on the boy's back. Tripp's body went limp and he hung his head down as he tried to accept the fact that he was going to be fucked today and there was nothing he could do about it. The crowd was now cheering loudly.

As he returned to center stage Sandy saw Jason give him a smile and an approving nod. He also saw something that he felt was unusual. Kelly Tucker, standing just in front of the stage, had a smirk on his face. This was really out of character for the Kelly that Sandy knew. Tucker was always sympathetic toward a kid in distress, but now he looked like he was gloating over what just happened. Someday he would have to ask about what happened between those two. But for now, it was back to business.

"Okay, next in the number 11 spot we have Gordon Mackey with 6 votes and 1 checkmark. Gordon has a super looking ass that deserves every one of those votes. He definitely has great bottom potential. I think you should take a close look at this boy before you cast your vote," suggested Sandy as the crowd shouted their agreement. Gordon kept his head down and stared at the stage floor.

"Next, in the number 10 spot, also with 6 votes, we have Trevor Havers. Now we haven't had a Havers as a bottom in ages. It would be something different to try. He also lives in a great location for both the town and country boys. Think about this one guys."

"In the 9th spot we have Sam Mackey. Sam is tied with Trevor and Gordon at 6 votes. He is another fine-looking choice you should consider." Sandy didn't really want to push any votes to Sam so he moved on quickly."

"Now the next 4 candidates are all tied with 7 votes. The way this looks at the moment we may have to have some tie-breakers later on." This brought a wild cheer from the audience members who were familiar with the sometimes devious nature of tie-breakers.

"8th on our list is Henry Mackey. Besides having a very sweet ass, he lives right on the edge of the park so you can go for a swim after a good fuck."

"In the number 7 spot we have Cole Jacobs. Cole is a new face in town but it looks like he's making friends quickly, or at least his rear end is," said Sandy, getting a big laugh from the crowd. He felt funny making Cole the brunt of his joke but the more the boys in the bleachers cheered the more confident he got and the better he felt. He was running the show and everyone liked it.

"In the 6th spot we have Carter Mackey." The crowd seemed to like this and not only cheered but stomped their feet loudly. Carter was miserable when he heard the cheers. What happened to his friends? He never felt so alone before.

"And in the 5th spot we have Marvin Mackey, the last of the 7-vote boys. Marvin usually does great at anything he attempts, so I'm sure he'd make a great bottom. Let's hear it for Marvin," called Sandy as he gestured to the crowd to draw applause. Marvin was in shock. He had been telling himself that he probably wouldn't even get a vote. How could this be happening?

"Alright, we are down to the top four candidates," said Sandy seriously. "Pay attention all because these are the boys who are leading the pack right now. Only about half of you have voted so far so things can change, but the way it stands now any of the following boys could be one of the new 1996 Mackey Community Bottoms. So, are you ready?" he asked loudly. The bleacher crowd responded with calls of "Tell us brother," and "Who's in the lead?" "Which butts are we gonna be seeing more of?" Sandy was getting turned on by his ability to excite the crowd. He felt powerful.

"Here we go then. Filling the fourth spot we have Andrew Carrigan with 8 votes." The announcement brought cheers. Sandy walked over to Andrew and pointed to his bare exposed ass. "Looking at this fine specimen I can see why he's racking up the votes." He reached over and spread Andrew's cheeks apart causing the boy to flinch. "Relax Andrew. If you win you'll have to get used to this," he added as the crowd cheered. "Just look at how tight that hole is." He released the butt cheeks and gave the 12-year-old a brisk slap before moving on.

"Next on the list in the number 3 spot is Tyler Hardin with 9 votes." As the crowd shouted their approval Sandy glanced over to see Paul looking his way. He wouldn't let himself be intimidated. He had to treat Tyler the same as the others. Standing next to Tyler's bare rear, he held his hands out, palms up, and asked the audience," Now is this a thing of beauty or what?" Loud applause and catcalls erupted from the crowd. Tyler turned his head and looked up at Sandy with an expression of deep sadness. The older boy felt guilty for a moment but quickly shook it off. He gave Tyler a slap on the butt. He was just doing his job, but he couldn't forget the boy's expression. He leaned close to the kid and whispered into his ear. "It's nothing personal. It's just part of the show and you guys are just the unfortunate victims of Mackey tradition this year." He gave what he hoped was a reassuring smile before moving on.

Sandy looked back at the audience and continued. "In the number 2 spot we have Carl Mackey also with 9 votes." Carl's tan lines made his ass look like it had a spotlight focused on it. Again, the crowd cheered. "This ass is a work of art. I don't think there is a smoother or whiter one up here." As Sandy spread the boy's butt open and exposed his anus he speculated loudly, "Sure looks virgin to me."

The crowd loved it and there was plenty of shouting. "We can pop that cherry today." "Oh, that ass is calling my name. Let me have a ride." Carl was unable to stifle a groan. He couldn't believe this was happening. He would never be able to be a bottom. The cheering boys increased Carl's stress and just about when he was ready to burst into tears he heard Sandy say, "Let's move on to the number 1 spot."

As he moved away from Carl, Sandy thought he saw the 12-year-old's body starting to shake a bit. He hadn't expected a reaction like that, but could guess at the stress every kid on the line felt. He put it out of his mind as he approached the next and last boy on the list. He held up his hands for quiet when he got to Henry Finney. "As I said before, there are still about half of you who have not yet voted so a lot could change before we finish this Choosing. However, as of this moment, we have Henry Finney leading the pack with 11 votes." As expected, the boys in the stands applauded loudly. "Many of you already know Finney, but those of you who don't might want to stop up here and take a look. If the votes keep going like this he could be a face, or should I say an ass that you'll be seeing a lot more of in the upcoming year." The crowd laughed. "One more thing I have to point out, he already has 4 checkmarks. Seems you had trouble behaving this morning Finney," said Sandy. "Naughty! Naughty!" he added punctuating each word with a sharp slap on the poor kids butt.

"Those are the top 12 candidates so far," he announced. "The entire list is posted on the board by the scoring table for those of you who want to see it. Voting will reopen in just a few minutes so everyone start thinking and get ready to cast those votes." The 14-year-old first-year Councilman felt really good. The crowd seemed to like the show he gave them and Jason was smiling at him. He knew he had done well.

In spite of this, Sandy Jacobs wasn't the sort of guy to allow temporary fame to go to his head. He likened his task today to that of an actor playing a role in a play – perhaps a performer in one of those corny English children's pantomimes. His mother had taken them to one of those five years ago when they visited New York. All the little kids screaming at the top of their voices as the villain crept up on Snow White. The audience was expected to work as hard as the actors to make the show a success. If that didn't describe the Mackey Choosing Ceremony, nothing did. The script today called on him to ham it up as much as possible and that's exactly what he'd do. He was well aware that the adulation and cheering from a crowd like this could turn on a dime if he messed up his lines or didn't play his role as expected. Besides, he had other priorities foremost on his mind. He checked on his kid-brother Stevie. After a quick whispered conversation, he learned the boy was doing fine and actually seemed offended that he hadn't received more votes so far. That brought a broad smile to the 14-year-old's face. Perhaps it was a pity the boy had too much protection to be ever made a bottom. Like Kevin, he would have made a good one. He knew that Stevie and sex were natural partners. No, the bent-over, naked 12-year-old's only concerns were for Cole Jacobs and Tyler Hardin. Sandy whispered back that cousin Cole was safe. They still had Kevin Mackey's 10 bottom votes ready to be applied at any time. However, he hadn't given Tyler a thought until he saw the distress on the kid's face a few moments before. The Hardin boy had plenty of potential protection from his own family. His brother Paul had used his 5 negative votes as a Council member to protect the kid, but now that Sandy thought about it, he was still mightily pissed that Tim Hardin had used the 5 points he had as a former bottom to vote in favor of cousin Cole Jacobs rather than protect his own brother. There was something going on there he didn't understand. Did Tim H really think he could get to Sandy through his cousin? He put the youngest Hardin boy out of his mind for now. He couldn't protect everyone.

In the meantime, Sandy needed to check that Brad was making sure their youngest brother, Chass, was behaving himself. He certainly didn't need a repeat of the Famous Five incident from last year. He was also aware the Chase was waiting to be told who to vote for. He felt guilty about that. Whoever Sandy chose, the unfortunate kid would receive a flurry of last minute votes from his brother's 11-year-old buddies. Sandy was aware that a bunch of them were holding back hoping to gain added protection for next year. Nothing concentrated the mind of 11-year-olds at a Mackey Choosing Ceremony than looking up at the stage and knowing they'd be bent over there this time next year. An 11-year-old could vote for whoever they liked. As soon as they signed their name on a candidate's back, they got another point off for next year, so they start off as `- 2'. But if the boy he votes for doesn't get chosen, then he loses all his negative points and starts off next year at zero, just like everybody else. If the guy gets Chosen, then he gets another negative point and starts off next year as `- 3'. Chase's friends weren't stupid and had been holding off from voting to see who Sandy pointed to in the last few minutes of time. But more disturbing though were the rumors he'd heard that Chase promised fucks with the new bottoms to any of his friends who voted with him. He knew he should have screamed at the kid for that and taken some dramatic action. But he never got around to it. If an 11 year old is also invited to fuck the boy they wrote on, then they get a whole other negative point taken off, so they start the next year at `- 4'. That is huge. If a kid starts the Choosing with a negative 4, then he's pretty safe, especially if they had a sponsor or an older brother to write an exemption on him. There would be almost no way he'd get picked. Nobody would want to waste their vote on him. But Chase Jacobs certainly had no right at all to be making such promises. Still, Sandy was aware that when it was time to make decisions about who would break-in the new bottoms, 11-year-olds got preference. Mostly because they had smaller cocks. That was actually considered as "helping" the poor unfortunate new bottoms who were taking it for the team. Sandy knew he'd have to demonstrate his displeasure with Chass in some way. But not now. Chase had never really forgiven him for following through on the Tolley blow-jobs last year and there was still a tension between the siblings that Sandy hated. Life was complicated the 14-year-old thought. He wouldn't be sorry to see this day end.

***

Henry Finney couldn't believe what Sandy Jacobs had done to him. By announcing he already had 4 checkmarks he had made him a target for harassment for the rest of the day. Every kid in town would be trying to provoke him to get him that 5th checkmark. He had always heard that Sandy was a good guy, but right now he hated him.

***

A few minutes later, Sandy saw Judge and Seth Mackey standing by the front of the stage and went over to greet them. He hadn't seen Judge all day and he was curious if he had plans for his 10 votes. He couldn't help but notice that both boys were giggling and smiling like little kids.

"Hey Judge," Sandy called as he approached. "I was afraid you weren't going to join us today."

"Now you know there's no chance of that happening," he replied.

"Good to see you Seth," Sandy said with a smile as he patted the deep Mackey on the shoulder.

"You sounded like a real pro up there," commented Seth. "Sheldon would be proud of you," he laughed.

"Thanks, I was nervous as hell, but I think the crowd liked it. Where's Matthew?" Sandy asked Judge.

"He's avoiding me right now so I won't lecture him about what he did to Eli."

"Oh! Yeah that was a bit of a surprise to me. I guess he had to have his revenge. I hope that's the end of it now."

"Me too," Judge answered. "Carrying grudges brings out the worst in people. It's okay if he wants to stay away from me for a bit though because I'm enjoying Seth's company," he said with a big smile as he rubbed Seth's arm. Knowing Judge as well as he did, Sandy could tell he was after the lanky blonde and would probably get him up in his treehouse before the day was over.

"So, are you going to help bottom somebody or are you planning on saving someone today?" Sandy asked.

"To be honest, I don't know yet. It looks like you got all your kin protected and I don't have any beefs with anybody so I may not even vote. I'll just let the community decide this year," Judge answered.

Cool," said Sandy. "But if I see any deserving soul in need, I'll look you up."

"That's fine with me. I may leave early though, so let me know soon."

"You guys enjoy the day," said Sandy as he headed back up to the stage.

Nearby Tim Hardin had overheard the conversation and was happy. If Judge left that would be 10 votes he wouldn't have to worry about.

Sandy found Jason sitting at the scoring table with a very angry looking Paul Hardin. "Did I do okay?" he asked.

"Sounded fine to me," answered Jason. "You have the boys fired up and ready, so go ahead and open the voting back up while Paul and I take care of a few things." Paul never looked up from the table.

"Will do," replied Sandy and he headed over to center stage. "May I have everyone's attention. The final voting session is now open. Come on up and make your choices from the fine selection we have here today," he called loudly. With that announcement Mackey boys drifted down from the bleachers and headed for the stage.

Ernie and Billy Mackey joined Paul Hardin at the scoring table. "What's the matter buddy? You look kind of down," asked Ernie.

"Just a little," answered Paul as he gathered up the pink voting slips in front of him and secured them to the clip board he held. "When you have a real dumb-ass for a brother it gets to you every now and then."

Both of the Mackey boys laughed knowing who Paul was referring to. "What did Tim do now?" Billy asked.

"You both have brothers on the line today so you know how it feels. You want to protect them. Between me and Tim we should have had 10 protection votes to put on Tyler's back. That would have kept him pretty safe. But as I was going through the tally just now, I discovered that Tim put his votes on Cole Jacobs back and now Tyler's in the running. That's why I'm pissed."

"Why the hell did he do that?" asked Ernie. "Nobody even knows that kid. He just moved here. Tim couldn't have a beef with him."

"He said he did it because Sandy pissed him off and he lost his temper. I think he's just plain stupid," said Paul. That made all three boys laugh. "Problem is now I may have to ask Jason for his votes and I hate to do that. He's a good guy and I think he'd help, but that makes me beholding to him. Damn that Tim."

Carter Mackey

Carter was miserable. His emotions were going from anger to regret to fear and disbelief. He couldn't believe he was facing the prospect of being bottomed. He was a popular kid, one of the cool kids even. He shouldn't even be in the running. He knew most of the votes on his back were his own fault. They were from friends of Dean and Fairlane Mackey. They were payback for all the blowjobs he had demanded from Dean last year. His brother Eddie, who was friends with Dean, had warned him he was going too far when he took friends along to also get sucked off by Dean. He had the right to do that, and it was all in fun. But he had never imagined the older boy might hold it against him. Why hadn't he listened to Eddie? His thoughts were interrupted as 3 more boys put their votes on his back. He heard Fairlane's voice thanking them for their help as his ass was being fondled by the new voters. He didn't look up because he couldn't face anyone right now.

Trevor Havers

Trevor felt totally helpless. He was bent over the padded bench with his rear end up in the air for all to see. He had closed his legs a bit to feel less exposed but Hayden Mackey had come by and cautioned him to keep his legs 2 feet apart or he could get a checkmark. After the voting had resumed he knew he had gotten at least 2 more votes and he was scared. At the start he was dreading giving Tolley a blowjob in public but now he was more concerned about being bottomed. His thoughts were interrupted as Derek, Shawn and Chad Mackey gathered behind him and patted his butt.

"Now this is a fine-looking ass," said 16-year-old Derek. "And it's a Havers ass on top of that," he added.

"What's so special about a Havers ass?" asked 15-year-old Shawn.

"Well, they say Haver's asses are extra tight. I don't know if it's true or not but this one sure feels tight," said Derek as he pushed a finger deep into Trevor's anus causing the boy to moan out loud and stiffen his legs. "This boy lives right on the edge of the woods so you wouldn't have to go very far for a fuck," continued the older boy as he moved his finger in and out of Trevor's anus before pulling it out.

"I heard Daddy say the Havers think they're better than us," said Chad. "That's why they moved out of the woods."

"Do you think you're better than us Trevor?" asked Derek intentionally trying to provoke the boy.

"No sir," replied the 12-year-old trying very hard to keep his cool. "I don't think I'm better than anybody else."

Chad stoked Trevor's exposed balls and tickled his asshole. His 14-year-old hormones were raging just looking at all the butts on display and this one was one of the best. He wanted to fuck this boy.

"I don't know about you guys but there's nothing I'd like to do more with a boy who thinks he's better than me than to bend him over and stick my dick in his ass," said Chad with a giggle. "What do you say we put our votes here," he suggested hopefully.

The two older brothers looked at one another for a moment and then nodded their heads. "Okay," said Derek with a laugh. "Let's give our little brother a present I think he really wants." The three brothers added their names to Trevor's back as the 12-year-old tried to stifle a sob. Then they each gave his butt a slap and headed over to the scoring table to turn in their pink slips.

Reeve Mackey

Reeve was getting annoyed at all the kids walking by and patting his backside. Some were even friends who just stopped to greet him, but he hated being on display like this. He was also getting stiff and bored. Cooper tried to steer kids away but with limited success. Things got worse when 14-year-old Ron Mackey came by with his 17-year-old brother Kelson. Cooper knew Ron liked to start trouble so he tried to start up a conversation with him to keep him away from Reeve.

"Hey, Ron. Are you enjoying the show?" he asked.

"Oh yeah," replied Ron. "I'm having a great time looking at all these nice smooth rears," he stated as he ran a hand over Reeve's ass causing the boy to squirm. "You remember me, Reeve?" Ron asked. "You were supposed to get me through math last year, but you didn't do a very good job. I failed and now I gotta take it again."

Kelson laughed and said, "Maybe you just failed cause you're a dumb ass."

"I'm not a dumb ass," said Ron defensively. "He's just a lousy tutor."

Ron's last statement pushed Reeve over the edge. He jumped up from the rail and turned to face the startled antagonists. "You're not a dumb ass but you're lazy. You failed because you were too lazy to do the work. I am a very good tutor and you could have passed if you had just put in any amount of effort." Reeve was red faced and breathing heavily. Cooper put his arms on the boy's shoulders and coaxed him to bend back over the rail, but it was too late. The shouting had attracted Sandy's attention and he saw the whole thing. As the acting MC approached, he uncapped the red magic marker he held and put a checkmark on Reeve's back. Cooper gave him a pleading look.

"Sorry Cooper but you know I have to. He earned it."

Kelson and Ron looked pleased with themselves. "Yeah," said Ron. "The boy's gotta learn some manners. We'll give him something else to think about too," he said as he wrote his name on Reeve's back. "Come on Kelson. Put your vote here too." The older boy hesitated for a moment then added his name. "Now let's go see if we can find this kid some more votes," added Ron as they walked away. Cooper was really rattled. He should have stopped this, but it happened too fast.

"Don't worry Reeve. It's only 2 votes. It doesn't mean anything," Cooper said softly. "You gotta relax though. We don't want anymore."

"Sorry," answered Reeve. "I know I gotta do this for my dad."

Carl Mackey

Carl felt numb. He was able to tune out the guys feeling his ass and grabbing his dick, but he still jumped when someone stuck a finger in him. He couldn't believe this was happening. He didn't bother anybody so why were so many kids voting for him. Some even had the nerve to say things like, "Nothing personal Carl, but you'd make a great bottom." If he got bottomed, he really didn't know if he could handle it.

Henry Mackey

Henry was proud of himself. So far he had not shed any tears, and it wasn't easy. When Sandy announced he was in the running he almost cried out loud. He remembered his dad telling him to relax and go with the flow. He remembered his dad's exact words. "There are a lot of kids in this town that like you. They all know you get upset easily and you might cry, but they still like you. Don't be ashamed of yourself if it happens. Hold your head up and stand proud. Your friends are still gonna like you no matter what. Just relax and go with it and things will be okay." Henry was really trying to believe that now. He overheard several boys saying they voted for him because of where he lived. Why did Sandy have to point that out. Three of his cousins, John, Dale and Tom Mackey, told him they were voting for him to help him become a man. They said it would toughen him up. He couldn't believe how many friends from school said they were voting for him because he had a great butt. Even with the -4 protection votes his brothers had given him he knew the votes were adding up. He could only hang his head and hope for a miracle.

Cole Jacobs

Cole thought he had prepared himself for this day, but he never imagined it would be this bad. He had trusted Sandy and Stevie when they said he'd have lots of protection, but he was still scared. He had enough votes to be named in his cousin's countdown announcement. Kevin kept telling him to stay calm and trust him, but it was getting hard. To make matters worse he had a boner most of the morning that kids kept noticing and commenting on. He hung over the bench and stared at the 5 of clubs playing card taped to the floor between his legs. No one would tell him what that meant, so it added to his stress. He just kept telling himself it would be over soon. Occasionally his cousin Stevie gave him a sympathetic glance but that was all he could do. They had been warned about talking once already.

Tripp Headley

Tripp's brain was racing, but he was coming up with nothing. He always seemed to be able to find a way to get out of things, but he knew there was no escape from this. He was going to be publicly fucked today by 5 kids. Tripp was a virgin and he was scared of the pain, but the humiliation was just as bad. He had always regarded the Indian Spring kids as backwoods fools, but now they had him trapped and he knew it. He was not looking at anything but the floor and only speaking when he had to. It was bad enough that they were going to fuck him. He didn't want to be bottomed too.

Michael Mackey

Michael was just as nervous as any of the boys on the line, but he kept telling himself he was okay as far as votes. He wasn't in the top 12 anyway. Two friends of Dean's came by and fingered his ass and tried to scare him, but they moved on and put their votes on Carter's back. Michael knew he had used Dean just as much as Carter, but it seemed like the brothers held it against Carter more. Maybe it was because Michael never invited friends along or maybe it was because he just enjoyed the blowjob and didn't harass Dean with comments all the time. Carter always told Dean what a great cocksucker he was and how much his dick loved Dean's tongue. Carter could never stop running his mouth and most of the time Michael laughed because his friend was funny. Now however, Michael was glad he was the quiet one. It seemed like Carter was paying for being the comedian.

Gordon Mackey

Since the voting had reopened Gordon knew he had gotten at least 4 more votes. This really sucked. Stanley Butler and Duncan Mackey placed their votes on his back and let him know that this was payback for picking on their 11-year-old cousin Joey. He tried to tell them it was Finney's doing, but they weren't buying it. When they left he started to think of all the younger boys that might have told their older brothers that he bullied them over something and it scared the hell out of him. Luckily Finney usually did all the talking and maybe he'd get more of the blame. All he could do was hope. He didn't want his best friend to get bottomed, but he was more concerned about himself right now.

Sam Mackey

Sam lay bent over the rail thinking about last year's Choosing. He had been having fun setting his brother up to be a bottom. He was horny as hell and the idea of fucking his older brother Bert anytime he wanted was impossible to resist. But now, he wished he had. He knew he had about 10 votes on his back already and when Bert got here and added his 10 he would shoot right to the top of the list. He was going to be a bottom and he knew it. The worst part was he knew he deserved it. This year was really going to be hell. Daniel Mackey had stood behind him and rubbed his hand up and down Sam's inner thighs and tickled his balls before he wrote his name on his back. That boy gave him the creeps and he'd have to deal with guys like him all year long. It was just as much his brother Gerry's fault as it was his. Why was he paying the price? This was all so unfair, but there was nothing he could do. It was going to happen. He wanted to cry, but he couldn't. He was a Mackey.

Tyler Hardin

Tyler was bent over the bench feeling very confused. His day was not going as he expected. He came here today nervous but confident. His older brother Paul had assured him that he had plenty of protection and he would probably be fine. He didn't feel fine. Paul had put his 5 protection votes on his back but they were rather quickly erased by 5 boys adding votes. His other brother Tim hadn't come by all morning and Tyler really wanted his protection right now. He had readied himself for a stressful morning being naked in front of everyone, but he never expected to be a leading vote getter who might be bottomed. He was actually looking forward to a day away from chores and a chance to see some friends like Stevie Jacobs. To be honest he was hoping to see Stevie naked. He had heard that sometimes after the Choosing the boys who went through it got together and had a little fun. He wanted this day to be a chance to get together with Stevie and, well, who knows what could happen. He had hoped it might lead to something sexy. Now however, he was more worried about being bottomed. Several of the deep woods boys who voted for him told him how much they were looking forward to trying out his ass. Dexter Mackey and his 11-year-old brother Ricky came over to vote together. Tyler heard Ricky tell his brother "Tim was right. This is one fine ass." Tyler was furious. He knew his brother could be a jerk, but he never thought he would push to have him bottomed. Dexter wrote his name on Tyler's back and then handed the marker to Ricky.

"Maybe you should wait to vote until you're sure he's gonna be a bottom. You get an extra minus point for that next year," Dexter suggested.

"Oh, I'm sure he's gonna be bottomed," said Ricky quietly as he took the marker and added his name.

Tyler was afraid he was going to be sick to his stomach. Kids were already sure he was going to be a bottom. Where the hell was Tim with his extra protection?

Henry Finney

"Finney" was fucked and he knew it. He was going to be bottomed. He never thought about the kids he picked on before but apparently they thought about him. He was amazed how many older kids wrote their name on his back and said," that's for my little brother." He couldn't believe how many kids hated him just because he had a little fun playing around. He never really hurt anybody. Well, maybe a few punches in the gut but sometimes you gotta put smart ass kids in their place. Damn, this was really bad. He felt very alone too. He usually had Gordon with him to share his thoughts with, but now, he was all by himself. He found himself getting mad but that would do no good. He had to keep his cool. Unless something changed quickly, he was going to be getting fucked in front of all these kids in a very short time. He was ready to panic.

Sandy was observing the stage and admiring the fantastic display of virgin asses. He was getting a bit horny watching the show, but he kept getting distracted by his duties. Besides, he was well aware of the stress each boy on the stage was under.

At that moment a disturbance behind him made him turn to see Cooper Mackey facing off with a couple of deep Mackey boys. He quick-stepped it over that way to see what was going on.

"Is there a problem here Cooper?" Sandy asked in his most commanding voice.

"Yes, these guys are picking on Reeve just because Ron Mackey failed math."

"Not true!" Sid Mackey said loudly. "We're picking on him because he called Ron a dumb-ass."

"He didn't call Ron a dumb-ass, Kelson did," answered Cooper angrily.

Sandy felt this was getting too heated and wanted to diffuse the situation quickly. "Okay, do you boys want to vote for Reeve?" he asked the deep Mackeys. The two looked at one another clearly uncertain.

At that moment Jason walked up.

"What's going on here?" he asked. "I could hear you over by the scoring table."

"I think we're fine now," answered Sandy. He didn't want Jason to think he couldn't handle it. "These boys are just deciding if they want to vote for Reeve or not."

Jason looked at Reeve's back. He had -2 votes from Cooper and 2 votes from Kelson and Ron equaling 0. "Let me help you make up your minds," he said as he pulled out a marker and put his -5 votes on Reeve. "There, if you want to throw away your votes go ahead," Jason said looking directly at the boys. "You know you don't have a chance of catching him up with the leaders now. If you're not going to vote for him, I suggest you move on and avoid any trouble."

The boys glanced at each other and nodded. "Yeah, we can find a better place to put our votes."

"Sorry Jason," Vern Mackey added. They both knew better than to mess with the Council President.

"I could have handled it," said Sandy as the boys wandered away.

"I know, I just wanted to help," replied Jason as he tugged on Sandy's arm to pull him away from Reeve and Cooper. Once they were out of earshot of the others Jason explained more.

"I really have a lot of respect for this boy and his family. He didn't have to be here today you know. After I talked with his dad, I was really impressed with the family's respect for our traditions and for the Mackey Brotherhood. That's why I laid my protection on him."

"I get it now," said Sandy. "I was afraid you thought I wasn't able to take care of it."

"That thought never crossed my mind. I trust you completely."

"Cool," said a relieved Sandy.

"I see Reeve got a checkmark. How'd that happen?"

"He jumped up off the rail and argued with Ron Mackey over his tutoring skills. I had to give it to him. I'm glad you brought it up because Cooper asked if he can get the blowjob. He thinks it will be easier on Reeve since they're best friends."

"I'll make sure that happens," answered Jason. "Tell Cooper it's okay."

"Thanks, I'll let him know."

Jason headed back to the scoring table and handed his pink slip to Paul who turned pale when he saw it. "You used your votes," Paul stated.

"Yes I did. It was for a good cause," said Jason casually.

Paul remained calm as he recorded the votes but inside he was in a panic. He was going to ask for those votes to protect Tyler and now they were gone. Tyler was in trouble.

Sandy noticed the current bottoms gathered together by the stage stairs having what appeared to be a serious conversation. His curiosity got the best of him so he wondered that way to see what was going on. The group included Kevin, Tanner, Cal Brewer, Bert and Judge. As the MC he didn't want to leave the stage so he called from the top of the stairs, "What's up guys. You having a meeting without me?"

"Well, sort of," answered Judge. "We're talking about our votes."

"Yeah and your opinion is not wanted," said Bert with a smile.

Kevin saw Sandy's surprised reaction to Bert's comment and shook his head. "You two can never play nice, can you?" His remark made them all laugh. "Look guys you can finish this without me. I gotta talk to Sandy a minute," he said as he left the group and climbed the stairs.

"How's it going with Cole?" Sandy asked.

"Not good," Kevin replied. "He's a nervous wreck since you called his name in the vote tally. Can I put my protection on him now to calm him down?"

"Go ahead. It's late enough. I don't want the boy stressing too much."

"I'll do it right now. That should calm him down. He's a really nice kid. I'm glad they moved here."

"I am too. I think he and Connor are gonna fit in just fine. How about Stevie. Is he alright?"

"He's fine, but he'd probably feel better if you gave him your votes now. Brad has already put his -2 on but I think he still has 8 votes. Funny thing though, he doesn't seem to be worried about himself. But he keeps asking how Tyler Hardin is doing. He made me go over and check twice."

Sandy laughed knowingly and said," I think Stevie really wants to get to know Tyler better."

"Then he should want to see him get bottomed," said Kevin. "Then he can get to know him real well and anytime he wants." Both boys snickered at the comment.

"I don't think Stevie wants to share. I think he has kind of a crush on Tyler. Do you remember what that's like? Let's go talk to both of those Jacobs boys and add our protection," suggested Sandy.

The two fourteen-year-olds headed over to chat with Stevie and Cole.

At the bottom of the stairs the current bottoms continued their discussion.

"Are you serious Judge. You're not going to vote?" Cal asked.

"I don't think so." Judge replied. "I don't have any great desire to bottom any of these boys and there's nobody here I owe protection to, so I'm just gonna leave and have some fun."

"You mean Seth, don't you?" asked Tanner with a grin.

"I do. The boy lives less than 2 miles from me and he's never visited me. I think he's really good looking and he has time today, so I'm going to make him a new client of mine. I bet I can make him a regular," he answered making them all laugh.

"What about you Tanner? This is your last year with 10 votes. What are you gonna do with them?"

"I think I'm gonna deal out a little justice. I see something happening here today that ain't right, so I'm gonna fix it."

"But you're not gonna tell us who?" asked Bert.

"Nah, you'll see when the time comes. How about you Cal. You know what you're gonna do?"

"Yes. I think I do. I'm gonna save somebody. I see a kid here who shouldn't be a bottom so I'm gonna stop it. And, before you ask, I'm gonna be just like Tanner and make you wait to see who."

"Well Damn," said Bert. "You all like being mysterious. I'll tell you what I'm gonna do. I'm putting my votes on my little brother's back."

"Bert, don't bottom your own brother. Holding grudges is not good. You could save him instead you know," pleaded Judge.

"You didn't get bottomed by your own brothers Judge so don't tell me what to do," said Bert firmly.

"You're the most stubborn kid I ever met," said Judge. "If I didn't like you, I'd give up on you. I don't have time to argue now because Seth is waiting but we will talk about this again."

"I can't wait," said Bert with a smirk on his face. Judge shook his head and walked away toward the bleachers muttering, "stubborn, stubborn, stubborn." The remaining boys laughed.

Up on the stage Jason came over to Sandy. "There are only about 20 boys left to vote plus some 11-year-olds. So I wanna play a game. You ready to have some fun?"

"Sure," answered Sandy. "What are we gonna do?"

"We are going to give a couple of the 11-year-olds a free fuck after they vote," said Jason. "It'll get the crowd excited about the upcoming main event."

"I'm ready," said Sandy. "What do you want me to do?"
