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.

Joey Sanders – Joey has light brown hair and blue eyes. He's on the thin side and average height for his age. He likes to show off in front of younger boys and he is sometimes a bully. Joey is popular with many of the deep kids who admire his tough talk. He will have protection from his 2 brothers, but he is still worried. He knows he has plenty of enemies because of his antics at school. Joey has just started to sprout very thin sparse pubes and he has become very shy and self-conscious about nudity since some of the older boys at the swimming hole noticed his new hairs and threatened to pluck them out. It's going to be a tough Choosing for Joey.
Cameron Mackey – Cameron has Brown hair and brown eyes. His body is hairless and his experience with sex is pretty limited. He has compared his equipment with a 13-year-old cousin and once when he was 10 he put his mouth on another boys penis for a dare. He has never fucked or been fucked. His older brother has tried to explain things but sex still seems pretty mysterious to him. Cameron is pretty popular and he doesn't think he'll be bottomed. At least that's what he keeps telling himself.
Stewart Hagen (Scooter) – Scooter's curly reddish hair has been cut short for the summer. It makes his blue eyes easier to see. Scooter is dreading the Choosing as he is a new kid and a lot of locals dislike him because of some things that happened with his father before he was even born. He has made some good friends who support him and he is bravely hoping for the best. Scooter has a muscular build and is hairless. His penis is slightly bigger than most of his friends. Not necessarily fatter but he is almost an inch longer than the other boys his age that he has seen.
Rickey Mackey – Rickey is a deep Mackey whose family doesn't socialize with others too much. Ricky has shaggy blond hair and brown eyes. He hasn't hit puberty yet and his body is hairless. His family is deeply respectful of the Choosing and have instilled those feelings into Ricky. Adan Koch, a neighbor, has been tormenting Ricky and telling him tales about the event. He told the kid that one boy got a pine cone shoved up his ass for giving a smart aleck answer. Adan also told him they held another boy down and let a crayfish latch onto his ball sack when he got a question wrong in a game. Ricky told him he was full of it, but just to be sure, he asked his brother that night when he got home. His brother told him it was all bullshit. Still, he couldn't get those thoughts out of his head. Ricky is scared.
Tom Mackey – Tom has blond hair and blue eyes. He has light pubes and his balls hang low. Tom is experienced at sex and has both given and received blowjobs. He has fucked several boys but has never been fucked. Tom's brother Carter was bottomed last year and he is scared of the same thing happening to him. His brother has promised to protect him but he's still nervous. Over the past year he has evolved from being a smart-ass manipulative kid into a pretty nice guy who actually thinks about others. He is worried, however, about how many enemies he made in the past. He has also been teased a lot lately by his cousin Michael who has had a falling out with his big brother.
Jared Tilton – Jared has long blonde hair and blue eyes that sparkle. He is small-framed and not particularly athletic. He is reasonably popular and Chase and his friends have always stood up for the kid since they discovered his amazing oral skills. He has no protection, but he doesn't mind. He feels that being bottomed might be an exciting adventure. When asked if he's nervous about the Choosing or being bottomed, he usually responds that he doesn't care, that "someone has to do it." Secretly he gets excited by the idea of a parade of hard dicks coming to visit him.
Tilton Garvin – Tilton has light brown hair and faint freckles. He's thin but muscular. He is confident his older brother Chase will give him protection votes, but he's not so sure about 14-yeat-old Jeff. Jeff is sneaky and always seems to be out for himself. Tilton has hit puberty and sports impressive pubes. His dick is said to be the largest of all the boys his age and he is proud of it. He likes to see the amazed looks of his classmates when he strips down in the locker room. Tilton is not looking forward to his Choosing at all, and he doesn't think he'll get bottomed. But he is a little concerned his brother Jeff might pull something on him. One of Chase's old friends and sexually experienced.
Vince Mackey – Vince has red hair and green eyes. All the girls think he is extremely cute. He is short for his age but very well built. He is athletic and muscular. His older brother Bert is a bottom and will give him protection but he is still scared. He witnessed his older brother Bert struggle to adjust to being bottomed and remembers the penalty imposed on Sam for his disrespect to his brother. He doesn't want to get on the bad side of the Council. He is as nervous as any other boy on the list. One of Chase's old friends and very sexually experienced.
Merrick Mackey – Merrick has reddish blond hair which he keeps long and blue eyes. He is popular at school and has plenty of friends. He has 3 older brothers who will protect him but he is scared. As the youngest in the family he is somewhat spoiled and used to getting his way. He witnessed his brother's Choosing last year and loved the sex, but now that it's his turn to be bent over he finds it terrifying. His parents are totally committed to the tradition and his father has already told him that if he embarrasses the family he will pay a steep price. Merrick is very afraid.
Sammy Mackey – Sammy is slim with dark brown hair and brown eyes. He is regarded as a nice kid who is a little shy. His 13-year-old brother Gordon was bottomed last year and he does not want to suffer the same fate. Both Gordon and his oldest brother Harry have promised their protection votes. Sammy is still dreading being naked in front of everyone.
Rory Mackey – Rory has bright red hair and blue eyes. He is a little small for his age but very physically fit and muscular. He is hairless with an average size penis that ejaculates clear. Although he is a Mackey, Rory was raised in California and only learned about the Choosing a few months ago. His mother let him choose if he wanted to participate or not. Rory wants to go through it because his dad did and also because his friends urged him to. Privately he wants Mackey privileges. He previously lived in a sheltered and proper environment where sex was unknown among kids. Since moving to Indian Spring he has traded blowjobs with several boys and fucked and been fucked by one. Rory is not popular with the deep Mackeys who view him as an outsider. He is also resented by some because his mother has money. Rory is afraid of being bottomed but he has put his trust in Chase Jacobs who has promised he will do all he can to protect him. He is also dealing with a PTSD problem that can send him into fits of rage. A lot of folks are betting on Rory to be bottomed.
Tim Mackey – Tim is a good-looking kid with brown hair and blue eyes. He is one of the good kids. He does well in school and has few enemies. His older brother is giving him his -2 protection votes but he is still scared. His family are firm supporters of the Choosing and observe their own traditions when one of their boys is on the list. He has limited experience with sex and a smooth hairless body. Several 13- year-olds at the swimming hole teasingly told him smooth boys were very desirable and he believes them. He is putting up a stoic front but he is extremely nervous.
Oak Mackey – Oak has short, light brown hair and brown eyes. He is lean and muscular. He has a great smile that shows his dimples and most moms think he's a real cutie. He's a rough and tumble kid who is usually sporting a scab or two on his knees or elbows. Oak is dreading the Choosing because of the harassment he expects from his older brother and cousins. He knows they will be trying to provoke him so he gets checkmarks. Oak doesn't expect to be bottomed because he believes all the attention will be focused on the new-comers. Oak has been sexually active since he was seven but has never fucked or been fucked. He is constantly called upon by his older brother for blowjobs.
Ben Brewer – Ben Brewer has brown hair and blue eyes. He has an average build for a 12-year-old and carries just a bit of baby fat around his belly. He is hairless. Ben's older brother Cal is a bottom so Ben is quite knowledgeable about sex but he is an anal virgin. His brother's bottom votes should give him plenty of protection and the kids have all been treating him extra nice since the tornado and his brother's injury. Ben is not looking forward to the Choosing because he embarrasses easily and he knows they love to do that to you there. But he expects he should be safe from selection.
Koby Mackey – Koby is an outgoing kid with shaggy blond hair who is almost always smiling. He is average height and on the skinny side. He has just started to get light blonde pubes that you have to look close to see, Koby is active sexually but has never been fucked. He did fuck Cole Jacobs at last year's Choosing and while he loved it he is hoping Cole has forgotten. Koby lives in the woods where there aren't many kids his age so he tends to hang out with the near-springers and the kids at the park. This makes some of the older deep boys say he's uppity. Koby is not aware of the resentment. He doesn't think he'll get bottomed but he is really afraid of getting fucked during the Choosing.
Ethan Tucker – Ethan has brown hair and brown eyes. He is knowledgeable and experienced with sex but is an anal virgin. He isn't too scared of getting fucked he just hasn't found the right opportunity yet. He doesn't really want it to be at the Choosing. His dad is a lawyer who is seen by some Mackeys as a hero and others as a devil. His older brother Kelly probably has an equal number of friends and enemies. He will have protection from his two brothers but being bottomed is a possibility mainly because of his last name.
Chase Jacobs – Chase is a strawberry blond kid with blur eyes. He has a swimmer's build and is a very bright boy. Chase is a natural leader and is well liked by most of his peers. Chase had privileges with Gordon Mackey last year and a lot of kids think he over used them and deserves some payback for abusing the bottom. He also drew some attention to himself at school by siding with the new-comers, Scooter and Rory, a couple of times. Some very deep Mackeys resent his older brother Sandy's power on the Council and might want to take it out on Chase. With three brothers, one a Council member, protecting him, Chase will be in a good position at the start but his brothers worry if it's enough.
This was not a normal weekday morning in Indian Spring. This was Choosing Day. In most homes, lights started coming on by 4am. Moms across the area were preparing special breakfasts and many dads were having last minute talks with their sons. There was early morning traffic on the roads as Uncles went to visit their nephews on the list to wish them luck and to extend congratulations.
As the boys on the list showered a big brother or older cousin was usually stationed outside the bathroom, more out of tradition than anything, but it did prevent any boy from giving in to last minute fear and running away. Parents knew this was the day that 12-year-olds have been agonizing over and dreading for months, so keeping a close eye on them was considered the smart thing to do. Kids under pressure can make foolish mistakes.
Most of the boys on the list were rather subdued and would have preferred to be alone but they were obliged to endure the hugs, handshakes and slaps on the back as they were congratulated for being a part of this very important tradition.
Jason was sitting in the kitchen sipping a cup of coffee. He thought he was the only one awake so he was surprised when his 14-year-old brother Kevin staggered in.
"Morning," Kevin muttered.
"And a good morning to you. You're up early."
"Couldn't sleep. The Choosing gets me excited."
Jason laughed. He knew his little brother was telling the truth. Kevin loved walking the stage and looking at all the naked rears on display. He would probably have a boner the entire day unless Jason assigned him someone to fuck. "Who are you going with?"
"I'm the sponsor for Rory Mackey so I am going with a whole group. We're meeting at the Hagen's place."
"I didn't know you were his sponsor," replied Jason rather surprised. He flipped open a folder and looked over his papers. "I'll be damned. I missed that. You know about his problem, right?"
"What problem. You mean the stories that were going around?" asked the half-awake boy.
"No, I mean his potential to fly into a rage and get violent." Jason could tell by the look on his brother's face that he was unaware of the issue and decided to have some fun. "He can suddenly snap out and start throwing punches and the kid can hit. You already heard about Shawn, Michael and Andrew, right? Well that wasn't luck. The kid is a fighter. I saw a video where he took a kid off his feet with two punches. I don't mean he knocked him down, I mean he swept him right off his feet. So you need to remember if you get close to him keep your guard up."
"Shit. Sandy and Chase didn't tell me anything about this."
"Sandy just found out yesterday and I don't think Chase knows."
"So I might get punched out for volunteering to sponsor this kid?"
"Yes, you very well might."
Kevin stared at his brother in shock for a moment. He bought the story hook, line and sinker. Then he saw a smile come across Jason's face. "You bastard. I was believing you."
Jason couldn't help laughing. "You looked pretty nervous."
"I was wondering what I got into."
"Seriously now. There is a problem," Jason began. He then filled Kevin in on the situation and the plan to deal with it. He also explained that this was not common knowledge and at Rory's request they were not going to spread it around.
"Okay, this sounds like something I can deal with."
"Good, I have to get going. If you help us get through this I think there's a good chance you could have a shot at one of the 13-year-old butts today. Right now there is stuff to do to get ready for the show so I'll see you at Old Knot."
"Cool. I've got to get Shawn up and then we'll be heading over to the Hagen's. See you later Jason."
Tim, his dad and his older brother Matthew were sitting on the front porch waiting for his cousins to arrive. Tim was ready to get moving and get this day over with, but his cousin Finney had promised him his 10 bottom votes for protection and that was important, so he waited. He had listened to his dad and brother tell stories of their Choosing's throughout breakfast and endured the indignity of the enema his mom administered. Now, he just wanted to get moving. Just when he thought he could wait no longer, his cousins Jake and Henry appeared out of the trees.
The cousins joined them on the porch and asked if they were ready. Matthew and Tim nodded and stood to leave when Mr. Mackey stepped in front of Tim and put his hands on his son's shoulders.
"Tim, I just gotta tell you how proud I am today. You're about to become a part of something that's bigger and more important than you know. Behave yourself and good luck. I know you'll make us proud. I love you son." Then, he stepped aside and let the boy join the others.
"Don't worry Uncle Christian. We'll take good care of him," called Finney as they started off.
His dad's little speech had really made Tim feel important. His dad was proud of him and that made him feel good inside. Suddenly the long walk to Old Knot that he had been dreading for weeks didn't seem so bad.
Rory was waiting by the car wishing his mom would get off the phone so they could leave. They had breakfast together and then he had showered. When he came out of the bathroom his mother was waiting to give him his enema. It had felt really weird bending over the bed while she inserted the thing into his butt. His embarrassment was forgotten quickly as she filled him up and discomfort set in. He thought she'd never let him up so he could use the toilet. When she did he ran to the bathroom. He assumed that indignity was over when he returned to his bedroom but his mother was waiting and had him bend over again so she could check his rear for cleanliness. She actually spread his cheeks and used baby wipes to make sure he was spotless. Rory couldn't help thinking that not only was his ass going to be examined by any kids that wanted to, but now he was going to smell like baby powder. Could this morning get any worse?
Finally his mom came out of the house and they got ready to go to the Hagen's. He made her promise that she wouldn't make a scene saying good-bye in front of the group and she agreed. Rory could tell she was a nervous wreck and the sooner he got on his way the better.
The sight of Chase walking out of the bathroom looking pale and uncomfortable as he held his stomach made Stevie crack up laughing. He knew exactly how it felt after one of their mother's enemas.
"It's not funny," Chase said sharply.
"You thought it was funny last year when it was my turn. If you remember you hopped up and down the hallway holding your butt making fun of how I ran to the bathroom."
The memory made Chase smile. "I guess you're right. I think Mom adds a little more each year though."
"Hurry up and get dressed. We gotta get moving."
"Alright, I'll hustle it up. Where's Sandy? I thought he be here bugging me." He didn't really feel that way, he just thought his big brother would be there. Chase found he felt rather calm about the day. It was like his brain had finally accepted the fact that he was going to be a bottom. The thought wasn't gnawing at him anymore. He just wanted to get it over with.
"He had to take off early to help set up. I'll wait downstairs. Brad and Sean are going with us."
"Okay. I'll be there in two minutes," answered Chase as he pulled his clothes on.
Rory, Scooter and Ben were listening intently as James Cormack and Kevin Mackey gave them some pointers on how to behave at Old Knot. They emphasized respect for the council members and controlling your temper. As they talked Ethan Tucker arrived accompanied by Kelly and Malcolm and Ashton. Ethan and Ashton joined the others sitting on the floor listening to the older boys. Kelly and Malcolm waited by the open garage door and watched the Jacobs boys coming down the street.
"Here comes Chase and his brothers," announced Kelly.
"Good. Everybody's on time. We can take off in a minute," said James.
"Where's Oak?" Chase asked as he looked around.
"He's going with his brother Bryce. It is traditional for big brothers to escort their younger brothers," answered James.
"We're all better brothers to Oak than Bryce is," snapped Chase. "He should be here with us." The others nodded in agreement.
James, who knew Bryce, actually agreed with Chase but he wasn't going to take sides. "Well his daddy wanted Bryce to take him so that's how it is."
"I wish Cal was here," Ben said to Scooter.
"Hey, I'm here for you. Your brother gave me the honor of being your sponsor," said Malcolm as he put a hand on Ben's shoulder.
"I know and I think it's really cool that you're going with me, but I kind of want Cal too."
"Don't worry. My Dad and Judge have a plan to get him to Old Knot. They're gonna wait until most of the kids are there so the trail isn't crowded," said Scooter. Ben trusted Judge and Mr. Hagen to keep their word so he relaxed a little.
Chase, Stevie, Brad and Sean greeted everyone. Scooter ran in the house to say goodbye to his mom and the others got up and stretched. It was time to go and face their fears, as Mrs. Hagen put it.
Ricky Mackey was the first boy on the list to arrive. He was escorted by his 16-year-old brother Dexter. They were almost ninety minutes early. Many of the deep boys came early as this was a big day for them. On Choosing Day they were free for the entire day so they made the most of it. Many of the dozen or so boys already in the bleachers called out to Dexter. He waved and said he'd join them in a minute.
Hank Mackey had already assumed his post by the steps and told Ricky to have a seat. He looked over at Jason and Sandy as they were reviewing their notes and said, "It's gonna be a few minutes till we start check-ins."
Ricky sat down on the bench and Dexter joined him. "It won't be long now," said Dexter.
"Good. I want to get this over with."
"You know you're doing great. You don't look nervous or anything."
"I'm scared shitless to be honest," the younger boy whispered.
Dexter had to laugh at his brother's language. Ricky never cursed. "You're gonna be fine and Daddy's going to be proud of you no matter what happens."
Then, Hank called from the stairs. "Okay Ricky, you can check-in when you're ready."
"I'm gonna get this over with," the younger boy repeated as he rose and started to take his shirt off.
"I'm gonna sit with the guys but I'll come and check on you. Relax bro. You can do this."
"Thanks Dexter."
The older boy went and joined his friends in the bleachers. Ricky stripped down to his underpants and then paused a moment. He looked around as he slipped his fingers into the waistband of his briefs. His brother and the others in the stands were laughing and talking to each other. No one was looking so he pushed his underpants down and stepped out of them. He put his clothes in a neat pile under the bench and walked over to the steps leading to the stage.
"Good luck Ricky," Hank said as he passed.
"Thanks," the boy replied as he climbed the stairs and walked over to Sandy Jacobs.
"Good morning Ricky. You have the honor of being our first check-in today." The boy said nothing so Sandy continued. "Ricky Mackey do you agree to accept the rules of the Choosing and the results and outcomes that will be posted later?"
This was a moment the 12-year-old hated. He wanted to say no and walk away but he knew he couldn't. Once he agreed, his reputation and his family's honor was at stake. He knew he had no choice. "Yes," he replied.
Sandy then put a green checkmark on his back. "Now Ricky, I want you to pick one. Bigger or smaller?"
The boy was confused. "Bigger or smaller what?"
"It doesn't matter. Just pick one."
"Smaller."
"Good," said Sandy as he wrote the answer down on his clipboard. "Now, I need you to write your name down on this piece of paper then fold it up and put it in the bucket." He handed the kid a small piece of paper and pencil.
When he was finished, he put it in the bucket Sandy had pointed to.
"Okay, come on back here and I'll show you your spot. Since you're checked in you have to stay here. You can sit or stand but no walking around. Someone will come and tell you when it's time to bend over. Got it?"
"Yes sir."
Sandy took him to a spot on the back rail. There were marks on the stage floor showing the required 2 foot spacing for your feet which he pointed out and he reminded him that he was now under Choosing rules. That meant no talking or moving around. Then he left the kid and returned to the front of the stage.
Ricky felt terribly alone and scared.
Gordon was waiting on the steps of his front porch for his brothers. His mother was saying good bye to 12-year-old Sammy and he remembered his own ordeal getting away from her hugging last year. She held him and kept telling him how much she loved him for at least five minutes. She acted like he might not come back. The truth was that most moms knew that their boys would be changed when they returned from their Choosing. They would no longer be the innocent little ones they were before.
Sixteen-year-old Harry was inside trying to hurry things along but Gordon knew his mom so he sat down to wait. He was surprised to see someone on a bike coming up the road pedaling fast. When they got close enough he recognized Tripp Headley. It was really unusual to have a visitor on Choosing Day.
"What are you doing out here Tripp?"
The visitor dropped his bike and walked toward Gordon. "I'm here for a fuck. I went by Carter's and Finney's but they both had lot of relatives around so I came to see you." he said quietly.
"Come on man. It's Choosing Day."
"I know. That's why I need it. I hope to be fucking someone special later on and I want to cum now so I can last longer later."
"Dude, There's no time now. I gotta get going. My brother is on the line and I'm walking to Old Knot with him. You know he can't be late."
"Come on Gordon. You're a bottom. You can't refuse me. I really need this."
Tripp was sort of right, but Gordon could have found an excuse to refuse if he wanted to. However, he liked to be accommodating and rarely turned anybody away so he decided to try and negotiate.
"How about if you let me take Sammy and get him checked in and then you and I can take a walk in the woods. You know how nervous kids on the list are today. I don't want to put any more pressure on him by making him wait on me. How does that sound?"
Tripp thought for a moment and then agreed. "Yeah, that will work. I'll look for you around the check-in area."
"Cool. Who do you want to fuck so bad that you rode all the way out here?"
"Ethan Tucker," replied Tripp as he picked up his bike. "I owe him big time. I'll see you soon," he said as he rode off.
Gordon's morning was now looking busy. He had to get Sammy to Old Knot, tell Chase Jacobs that he didn't have to surrender and now, bend over for Tripp Headley. As he wondered what else was going to pop up Harry came out of the house followed by Sammy.
"Let's get going before mom comes out for another hug," Harry said.
The three brothers started down the road. Sammy was in the middle with an older brother on each side.
"Who was that on the bike?" Harry asked.
"Tripp Headley."
"Be careful if you're getting friendly with him. I heard he's a sneak. What the heck did he want?"
"I'll tell you about it later," Gordon replied.
A mile or so down the road Tripp was thinking about the day ahead as he pedaled the bike toward home. He had plenty of time to drop off his bike at the house and walk to Old Knot. He had been planning this day for months and now it was here. The blowjobs he had been giving council members Bert and Ernie would hopefully get him on the list to fuck Ethan Tucker. He had been working hard to get votes for Ethan any way he could. Today the Tucker family would learn about payback.
Joey Sanders led the way followed by his 11-year-old cousin Corey. They were followed by his older brothers Toby and Shaun. It had been a morning of shocking revelations for Joey that started at the breakfast table. As he sat toying with the last pieces of pancake on his plate his mother stuck her head in the kitchen door.
"Hurry up Joey, I'm ready for you in your bedroom."
He knew that meant it was time for his enema. The first surprise came when she then turned to Shaun and said, "As soon as he's done it's your turn."
Wait! Huh! Shaun was getting an enema too. What was going on here. Joey's mind forgot his own troubles for a minute as he thought about this. He snapped out of it when his dad appeared in the doorway and told him not to keep his mother waiting.
When he was in his bedroom alone with his mother he decided to ask what was going on. He was naked and lying on his back with his knees drawn up exposing his anus to the probing nozzle his mom was pushing into him. Even in this very undignified position he felt comfortable talking to her. With the nozzle fully inserted and the soapy solution flowing into him he asked, "Mom, why is Shaun getting an enema?"
"You'll find out soon enough. No more questions now."
"Come on Mom. What's up? Shaun had his Choosing last year."
"Look, I said no more questions. If you ask me one more thing I'll add more to this bag and really fill you up."
He decided not to press his luck. When he was finished with the whole procedure he dressed and headed back to the kitchen. He passed Joey in the hall but his brother didn't even look at him.
The big surprise came when they left the house and Toby turned to Shaun and said, "You really fucked up this time."
"I know it."
Joey couldn't hold back any longer. He had to ask. "Would somebody tell me what's going on please?" He was surprised when Shaun answered.
"I'm getting bottomed, okay? I really don't want to talk about it now. You'll hear about it at the Choosing."
Joey and Corey were stunned but sensing the tension in the air, they didn't ask any questions. As they got close to Old Knot Joey's own worries returned. The revelation about Shaun made him forget for a little that this was his Choosing. As they entered the clearing Shaun saw Michael and Andrew waiting.
"I gotta go with those guys," he said to his older brother.
"Be strong bro," called Toby as he walked away. Then he turned to his younger brother. "You gotta take your clothes off and check-in. Do you want me to stay with you?"
"No, I can handle it."
"Good luck Joey. I'll see you soon."
Joey headed toward the stage and Corey and Toby went over to the stands to find seats.
Joey Sanders went over to the bench and started to undress. Up on the stage he saw Sandy Jacobs checking-in Cameron Mackey. It looked like there were about 6 or 8 boys already bent over. He decided to hurry while there was no line so he peeled of his clothes quickly and marched up on stage.
When Cameron was checked in Sandy called Hayden over to take the boy to his spot. Then he looked up at Joey. "Morning Joey. Are you ready for your big day?" Sandy asked cheerfully.
"I guess."
"Do you agree to accept the rules of the Choosing and the results and outcomes that will be posted later?"
"Yes," replied Joey. Sandy then put a green checkmark on his back. Joey was getting uncomfortable standing naked at the front of the stage and wished the older boy would hurry. As more questions were asked, Joey placed a hand over his crotch to hide his boyhood.
When he was finished, Sandy leaned over and told Joey quietly but seriously, "You are not allowed to cover up on stage. If I see that again you'll get a checkmark." Joey quickly moved his hand. Then Hayden arrived to escort him to his spot on the log.
Sandy was feeling good. Check-in was moving without a hitch and it looked like they'd be done early. He had seen Jason watching him earlier and when they made eye contact the Council President just nodded his approval. When he looked toward the trail he saw Gordon and his older brother Harry bringing 12-year-old Sammy to the bench. Harry patted his little brother's shoulder and Gordon put his arm around him for a moment. Harry headed to the bleachers and Gordon gave the stage a quick look. He wanted to see if Chase had arrived. Unfortunately he wasn't there yet. As he turned to go check out the crowd, Tripp Headley tapped him on the shoulder and asked, "You ready now?"
The two boys headed off to a trail that led to where the clubhouse once stood. Sandy was a little surprised. He didn't think Gordon and Tripp were friends. His thoughts were interrupted by the appearance of a naked Sammy Mackey standing before him sporting a proud boner. It happened to a lot of kids.
As he checked Sammy in Hank brought the three thirteen-year-old soon-to-be bottoms across the stage to Paul Hardin's table. Sandy noticed a lot of curious looks in the crowd as Shaun, Andrew and Michael were led to the side and bent over the smaller rail next to the vote counting area. Their backsides were pointed toward the audience so they didn't have to endure the stares they drew.
Finally, the group Sandy had been waiting for emerged from the woods. James Cormack, Kelly Tucker and Kevin Mackey led the way. Behind the five 12-year-olds, led by Chase Jacobs walked together and bringing up the rear were Brad Jacobs, his younger brother Stevie, Sean Mackey, Ashton Tucker and Malcolm McEwen. Sandy noted proudly that all the boys in the group followed Chase to the bench to strip down and check-in. His little brother really was a leader. James, Kevin and Kelly walked over to Sandy and assured him all was well and then went to mingle with the crowd.
In less than 5 minutes, the neighborhood kids Sandy knew so well were lined up in front of him and, of course, his youngest brother led the way.
"Chase, do you agree to accept the rules of the Choosing and the results and outcomes that will be posted later?"
"Yes," answered Chase.
"Okay, next I need you to pick one. Bigger or smaller?"
Chase looked a little confused but he answered. "Bigger."
Sandy then had him write his name on a slip of paper and put it in the little bucket. Before Hayden took him to his spot on the rail he turned to his friends and wished them luck. His spot on the log was next to a very scared looking Joey Sanders.
Ethan and Ben breezed through their check-in but Sandy spent a few extra minutes with Rory and Scooter. He reminded them of the basic rules of behavior on stage like no covering up, no talking and no moving around. He also cautioned them to watch their tempers and answer all questions honestly and respectfully. When they were done, Hayden took Scooter to a spot next to Chase and Hank escorted Rory to a spot near the stairs. Rory's spot was selected in case they had to send the kid off to run. Hank also took a moment to introduce himself and let Rory know he knew about his problem.
"Looks like we only have a couple to go," Jason said as he came up behind Sandy. "It's going very smoothly so far."
"Yes, it is. It's a lot different than last year," said a smiling Sandy Jacobs.
Jason chuckled remembering the Tripp Headley episode delaying the start of things. "As soon as you get the last ones checked in I'll send Ernie and Joe out to see if we have any 10-year-olds hanging around. Then I'm going to take over to explain these three over here to the group," he said pointing to Shaun, Andrew and Michael. "I want to do that before you officially open and do the introductions."
"That's fine with me, I'll let you know when they're all here."
Merrick Mackey arrived with his two older brothers and walked over to the bench to get ready. As he took off his sneakers and dropped his shorts his 16-year-old brother Brandon offered some encouragement.
"You're gonna be fine Merrick. Just behave yourself and make us proud. Me and Alex are going over to see who's here and we'll come up on stage to give you our protection later."
Merrick, who was now naked looked at them both and then angrily said, "You better not forget." Then he walked up on stage.
The two brothers looked at one another. "You know, our little brother needs to work on his manners," said Brandon.
"I agree. I don't think I heard a thank you from him," added Alex. "He might have to wait a while for my protection."
This trail had several little clearings with a bench or table to make it easy to have a quick fuck when you had the urge. However, the tornado that cut through here a few months back had really changed the landscape. There didn't seem to be a suitable clearing left. Just brush piles and fallen trees. Finally Tripp spotted a tree stump that appeared to be big enough and just the right height. "How about here?" he asked pointing at the stump.
The spot was more open than Gordon would have preferred, but they had walked farther than he had planned and he had to get back to stop Chase from surrendering so he agreed. He didn't expect to be getting fucked this morning so he hadn't lubed up. Luckily, he was in the habit of carrying some Vaseline. He took off his pants and underwear and quickly greased up his hole. Then he passed the jar to Tripp who covered his already stiff cock before handing it back. Gordon assumed the position he had gotten very used to over the past year and waited. Seconds later he felt the pressure of a hard dick pressing against his anus. He emitted a little gasp when it popped in and then braced himself as Tripp pressed in all the way. Gordon had been fucked by this boy several times before but today seemed different. The kid drove into him harder and faster than usual. He almost seemed angry. The experienced bottom knew a little conversation might lighten things up.
"What are you so excited about today?" he asked.
"I told you before. I'm gonna fuck Ethan Tucker."
"How do you know you'll get picked?"
"I have some good connections that are helping me."
"Are you pissed at Ethan or something?"
"He's the one who set me up last year so I'd end up in the Choosing. I've been sucking dicks all year because of him and today he's going to pay," said Tripp between grunts as he thrust faster into Gordon's rear. "I've been looking forward to this for a long time and it's going to feel real good. Real, real good," he gasped as he buried himself deeply into the bottom and shot spurt after spurt into him.
Gordon remained impaled by Tripp's throbbing cock until he finally asked, "Are you done?"
"Oh, yeah. That was fucking great. I'll be able to last 20 minutes or more in little Tuckers ass now." Then he withdrew and got dressed.
Gordon dressed quickly and didn't bother to clean up his butt. He could use the restroom at Old Knot after he saw Chase. He told Tripp he had to run and took off on his mission.
Tripp was not into running at all. He had just enjoyed a great fuck and he was going to walk slowly and savor the little vibrations still running through his dick.
Sandy had all 17 boys checked-in and was walking the line checking his numbers to be sure everyone got the credit due to them. He made sure they got credit for attending last year and for voting. When he was satisfied that it was all correct he told Jason they were ready. It was only 9AM. They were ahead of schedule.
"Great job Jacobs. Now I can deal with the unpleasant business regarding our three wayward boys over here," he said looking at the three upturned asses of the 13-year-olds at the side of the stage.
"It might be unpleasant but it is the right thing to do. They deserve it," replied Sandy. He sensed that Jason wasn't looking forward to this.
"I agree. It is the right thing to do, but if I don't convince the members of the Brotherhood of that it could be bad. It will destroy my reputation as Council President and it could have a serious impact on your chances in the upcoming election."
Sandy hadn't even considered that, and as he ponder the implications, his mentor continued.
"We are about to bottom three popular boys. At the moment the community thinks of them as victims of an uppity newcomer. I need to change that perception or this incident could destroy any political future that you and I have. So, here's what I need you to do. Have Hank close the stairs. I don't want kids up on stage while I'm speaking. I want everybody out front listening. Gather up all the Council members and tell them I want them at center stage with me so the community can see I'm imposing a council punishment and not settling some personal grudge. Hank can leave his post and come join us when I start. Have you got all that?"
"I've got it. I'll gather the guys now," replied Sandy and he started off on his assignment. Jason went over to talk to the three boys.
"Okay, listen up guys. In about three minutes I'm going to inform the crowd that you are being bottomed and I'm going to tell them why. I will ask each one of you if you are guilty of the charges and if the story you told was true or not. I expect each of you to admit your guilt and tell everyone out there that you lied to them. I don't want to hear any arguments or excuses. A simple yes or no answer is all I want. If you do want to argue I'll be forced to play the recording for the whole group and then everybody will know what you were planning on doing with Rory. I'll bet there are a lot of guys out there with younger brothers that wouldn't think too highly of three 13-year-olds ganging up to rape a 12-year-old. Do you understand?"
They all nodded and murmured yes. The council had already found them guilty and set their punishment and he didn't want this to turn into a second trial. He only wanted to explain what really happened and get the truth out to all the members of the Brotherhood.
Behind the crowd, Gordon emerged from the tree line. He was slightly winded as he had jogged most of the way. He made his way down to the stage and started up the steps only to be stopped by Hank.
"Sorry buddy. The stage is closed right now. You can look over the merchandise after the introductions."
"I just need a minute to deliver a message Hank. It'll only take a second."
"What part of `The Stage Is Closed' didn't you understand? Jason wants you all around front for an important announcement so get out there."
"Please. It's real important and I'll be quick," Gordon pleaded.
"Gordon, I'm not gonna argue with you. The answer is NO, and if I see you near these steps I'll make sure you get 6 more months added to your service. Now get out of here."
Hank could be a real hard nose and Gordon wasn't going to challenge him so he turned and walked back toward the crowd. Shit! He didn't know what to do. If Chase surrendered it would be his fault or at least he'd feel like it was. The ceremony hadn't started yet so there was still time to do something, but he didn't know what.
Kelly, Malcolm and Ashton were standing next to the bleachers. Malcolm was checking out the crowd to see if Tripp was there yet. He was going to make another attempt to get Kelly to bury the hatchet and get to know the kid better. Kelly was talking with Brad and Sean.
Ashton was attempting to quiet all the emotions he was feeling. He not only was picking up all the anxiety from the boys on stage, but also the excitement from the spectators. He was experiencing something new too. He was feeling a lot of lust, resulting in him getting a boner. He was trying to tune things out as Mrs. Cormack had taught him and it was working some, until he came upon a feeling stronger than the others. He looked around the mob of boys surrounding him until finally he saw Gordon. It was him. He needed help to help someone else. Ashton focused in on him as Jason called for attention from the stage.
"If I could have everyone's attention please," Jason yelled. "I need everybody's eyes up here for a minute. I have an important announcement to make before we get started." The crowd quieted down and looked toward the stage. Behind Jason the other Jr. Council members lined up. Bert, Ernie and Joe stayed toward the back as they were friends with a lot of the deep Mackeys who were not fond of newcomers. When Jason felt he had everyone's attention he began.
"I know it's early and the Choosing has not even begun yet, but we have three new bottoms to introduce you to already." After this statement the crowd got very quiet and all eyes were on Jason.
He turned and told Hayden to bring the boys over. As the naked 13-year-olds were escorted to center stage and lined up there were murmurs of disbelief from the crowd. "What the fuck," yelled 16-year-old Chandler Mackey.
"Yeah, what's going on Jason?" called Joshua Mackey, another 16-year-old and Sandy's opponent in the upcoming election.
"If everyone will quiet down I'll explain. I'm sure all of you have heard the stories about an incident down by the creek involving these three and one of our newer Mackeys."
"You mean when he jumped our boys and beat up on them with a stick," yelled Chase Garvin whose little brother Tilton was on the line. Chase figured any anger directed at the new kid might keep votes off his brother.
"Well, that was the story everyone heard. These guys even brought their story to a Council member and wanted their attacker punished. Because of that request the Council had to look into the incident and I think you'll be surprised at what we learned."
"Come on Jason. He told them to get off his land and called them hillbillies. We been playing at that spot forever. You can't let him get away with this even if it is his land," complained Jeff Garvin.
"Nobody is getting away with anything. Let me tell you what we learned when we looked into the whole thing. First, these boys were not swimming and minding their own business as they told us. They were lying in wait for Rory Mackey. Then they claimed to be representing the Council on official Council business. They were never called hillbillies and they were never told to get off his land. He did kick their butts, but he did it with his fists and it was not a sneak attack like they said."
The crowd was silent. Jason paused and looked at the three boys. Shaun and Michael were staring at the stage floor looking scared. Andrew looked sad but he was looking out over the audience. Jason stepped over to them and asked Shaun, "Is everything I just said true?"
"Yes," replied Shaun without looking up.
Next he moved to Michael. "Is what I just said true?"
"Yes," the boy answered between sobs.
"How about you Andrew. What do you say?"
Andrew looked out over the crowd. He didn't see anger in their faces. He thought he saw understanding. Every time his dad punished him, whether it was a whipping or a grounding, he always asked if he understood why he was being punished. He usually did, but the few times he didn't his dad took great pains to explain to him why. It made it easier to accept the punishment when you knew you did wrong. That's what he was feeling now. He knew he did wrong and deserved to be punished. "Everything you said was true. We lied about it all. I'm sorry."
Jason was surprised by the response but not unhappy. He could see the boys in the audience were accepting the facts. He decided it was time to pronounce their sentence.
"These three will serve as bottoms for 1 year. They will be part of the public fucking today and will be available for all eligible age groups after the 5-day recovery period. Each of them will also give ownership of their mouths to one of the 12-year-olds on the line today for a period of 30 days. We'll select the owners later during the Choosing. They will also lose their voting privileges for this Choosing. This may seem harsh to some of you but we take the crime of lying to the Council very seriously and falsely claiming to be representatives of the Council is not a joke. Does anyone have any questions?"
There was a lot of talking among the boys in front of the stage and a few asked Jason questions. As this was going on Gordon, who was stunned by what he had just heard, felt a tug on his arm.
"Ashton, what's up buddy?"
"I can deliver the message."
Gordon was shocked by his statement. "What do you mean?"
"You have an important message for Chase. I can tell him if you want."
"How did you know that?"
"I just knew. Do you want me to do it?"
"I would love you to do it but I don't want you to get in trouble. We're not supposed to be on the stage right now."
"I won't get in trouble. What do you want me to tell him?"
Gordon was torn. Ashton seemed confident he wouldn't get in trouble, but if he did he'd feel terrible. Using a little kid felt wrong but he had to stop Chase from surrendering. He decided to let him try. If the little guy got caught Gordon would accept all responsibility and hope for the best. He knelt down and whispered in Ashton's ear.
"That's easy to remember," said the boy and he walked away.
Gordon watched as the kid bypassed the stairs and walked up the newly constructed ramp. This put him slightly behind all the council members lined up at the front of the stage. He walked to the back row and knelt down by Chase and gave him the message. They talked for a moment before Ashton rose and left the way he had come. It was finally done, thought Gordon. Then he saw Jason looking in the direction of Chase's spot. Had he seen?
Ashton returned and told Gordon that Chase said he understood and was real happy. Then he left to return to Kelly's side. Although he had a lot of questions about the unsolicited help from the younger boy, he was relieved that the message was delivered and he would not be responsible for a kid surrendering for no reason.
Up on the stage Jason was dealing with a very argumentative Tim Hardin. Tim was a little high and he was enjoying showing off and being the hero standing up to the establishment. A small group of his friends urged him on.
"Don't you think that when this kid called them hillbillies that he was insulting the entire brotherhood?"
As Jason prepared to answer Paul Hardin stepped in. "Tim, haven't you been listening? That never happened. These guys lied. Pay attention please."
Tim was pissed that his big brother put him down in front of his friends but he wasn't going to challenge him. He walked back into the crowd.
"Any more questions," Jason asked.
Fourteen-year-old Jeff Garvin stepped forward and asked, "If they're going to be part of the public fucking, how do we get on the list to do 'em?" The crowd laughed.
This comment really hurt Shaun. He thought of Jeff as a friend. He was starting to realize they had no support from the kids in the community. Jeff had meant it as a joke, but it made all three boys realize how alone they were.
Jason finished taking questions and sent the three boys back to their rail. Then he turned to Sandy. "I think we succeeded. I was expecting a lot more complaining."
"The way you presented it there wasn't a lot of room for arguing."
"I think we pulled it off my friend. Your chances in the election are still good."
"Cool. Should I get ready to open the Choosing now?"
"We have about 5 minutes. I'll see if Joe has the 10-year-olds ready and I need you to do something."
"What do you need?"
"Go and give your little brother a checkmark."
"Okay, what did he do?"
"While I was up here talking he and some little friend of his were having a conference back there. He needs to learn a little respect."
"I'll take care of it," replied Sandy and he went to the back rail to see his youngest brother.
"Chase I just got told to give you a checkmark for having a visitor and talking while Jason was on stage."
"I guess you have to then but it was really important."
"What was so important that couldn't wait until the Council President was done talking?"
As Chase thought about whether he wanted to tell Sandy the truth or not, his neighbor, Joey Sanders butted in. "Chase was gonna surrender and Ashton told him not to."
Sandy almost fell over. "Is that true? Why were you going to surrender?"
"It's true. I heard it myself," Joey added.
"Joey, you need to stay out of this and keep quiet or you will be getting a checkmark too," Sandy warned.
"Can I tell you about it later? I'm not going to do it so it doesn't matter right now," said Chase.
"Alright, but I do have to give you the checkmark." As Sandy pulled the black magic marker from his pocket and took the cap off he added, "Please don't pull any more surprises like that on me little brother. My heart can't take it. Tell me what you're thinking and we'll work it out." Then he put a check on the boys back.
"You know you're going to have to get your butt whacked to get rid of that," said Sandy as he capped the marker.
"I don't want to do that. I want to give a blowjob and I want to give it to Gordon. Can you do that Sandy?"
"Yes. I can arrange that if you want." Sandy was happy that Chase had asked him for some help. That didn't happen often. "I've got to go and get ready to open the Choosing. Would you two please be quiet back here?"
Both boys said yes and Sandy went to the front of the stage to open the first Choosing for which he would be the main MC.
