CHILD OF MYTHRA

Part Nine

By Arthur

I sat in a lounge chair after returning from leaving Eric at school for his first day, the morning paper laying over my knees as I listened to the silence of the house now that my little dove was away, here I was the Founding Prime Master of the Mythra feeling sad and alone without my little dove, come on pull yourself together, he's just your slave, yeah right, damn it's quiet without him, wonder when he'll be back, mmmmmm nine thirty still two and a half hours to go.

I took up the paper for the tenth time and tried to read but my eyes wouldn't focus on the words, the fear of my boy alone at school and without my protection was starting to get to me, shit I hope I don't have to go through this everyday he's away, ten thirty, one and a half hours to go, what the hell can I find to do, I know ring Alton see how he's getting on with the new cloths.

I went to the hall phone to ring Alton and as usual he was pretty short with the interuption to his work.

"Ok James, what's the damn score, you know I'll have it ready for him, why the cross examination?"

"Don't know Alton, I just can't believe I miss him so much, damn this is no way for a Master to behave."

"Bullshit James, you love him more than you thought thats all, get over it and let me get back to his gear."

"Yeah ok, sorry Alton, bye for now."

"Hrmph, click."

Oh well back to the paper, whats the time, eleven, god one hour to go, another coffee will help, I went to the kitchen and as I got my coffee I thought I heard something in the lounge, but then put the thought out of my mind, he wont be home for another, hmmm let me see, 50 minutes, oh well back to the paper, I took up my cup and went into the lounge, as I entered I came to a sudden halt, the coffee spilling down the front of my shirt as I looked at the object in the middle of the floor.

The bundle there had his hair tossed all over his head with small bits of grass in it, the left sleeve of his shirt hanging in tatters, the collar nearly torn off, a grass stain on the back of his jeans, he sat there in the third position waiting for me.

"Why are you home boy, speak?"

"Master I have brought you dishonour."

"Speak freely boy?"

"Master, during the first break I was approached by three boys, who began to call me names and then push me around, I wanted to obey you and tried to find a way to leave without causing trouble, the biggest one grabbed me around the chest from behind while the other two started to punch me, I did as you ordered and fought back and managed to kick the two in front in the balls and they stopped but the other one was to big for me and started to beat me, one of the teachers came and stopped him and we all had to go to the headmasters office, he told me to come home and get clean and then to give you a message, Master I am sorry for my bad behaviour and await your punishment for not obeying you to the full."

"Stand to 'Present' boy."

Eric rose to his feet and took the 'present' position, it was then I saw the full extent of his injuries, my beautiful little dove had the makings of a very nasty shiner, his lip was split and the top of the left ear was torn, all the buttons on his shirt were gone and the bruises on his chest showed they had been kicking him, yet he stood there for me not moving though he had to be in pain.

"What is the message boy?"

"Master, he asked that you come to the school this afternoon after lunch and then he said something funny."

"What was that Boy?"

"Master he said to tell you that it was "Formal", I'm sorry he didn't say what was."

"Thank you Boy, I know what it's about, now come here my love."

"OH, James I'm so sorry, I tried real hard to beat them but they were to many, I was to small, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Shh, Eric, you did all I asked of you, I'm proud you did as much as you could, now come little one let me get you cleaned up then take a shower and I'll help you get dressed, do you think you can face the school again today?"

"Of course I can James, I wouldn't dishonour you by not going back."

"I know you wouldn't Kiddo, but what I mean is could you face the whole school, not as Eric but as the Child of Mythra?"

"Yes James, it's who I am."

"Good boy,now come on one more hug and then we get you cleaned up and dressed."

Eric snuggled into me again and then I took him to the bathroom and after removing his leathers I tended to his wounds and he winced and gave the occasional little moan but he stood there proud and steady while I swabbed and cleaned the cuts and bruises.

"Go have your shower now Eric, I'm going to get your things ready for you, then its lunch and I will be coming back with you."

After lunch I took Eric to his room and dressed him as he looked in an asking sort of way at me as I locked his gear on him. Once he was all done I went to my room and dressed in my dark suit and picking up the bag I had readied while he was showering, returned to the lounge where he was waiting.

"Why all dressed up James?"

"You'll see Eric, now I want you to put this on as well, today we're going to do something thats never been done before but if it has to be done then you're the one to do it, are you game my little dove?"

"Yes James for you I'm ready."

"Ok lets get this over with."

We left the house and headed to the school where I parked again in the visitors park and got out of the car Eric joining me as I had instructed him to earlier, we went up through the front doors and down the hallway to where the offices were, at the reception I asked for the headmaster and was shown to his door where the receptionist knocked and went in.

"Excuse me sir, the head will see you know."

"Thank you, come on Eric."

We entered and as usual eric was to my left, I would loved to have seen his face as he saw the headmaster standing there at 'present' yes you guessed it he was one of us.

"Founding Prime Master, you honour me sir."

"Prime Master Richard, the honour is mine."

"Child of Mythra, I welcome you."

Eric dropped to the third position as he said.

"P..Prime Master, thank you."

"Right James, lets get down to business, this is bloody shocking, I thought I'd cleaned up the bullying and for those little bastards to do this to Mythras Child is unforgivable, I asked you both here to make a suggestion, thats why I said it was formal."

"Ok Richard, what have you got in mind, I've an Idea but spell it out for us."

"Well James as you know we're well ahead of other schools in most things and this includes sex education, the government bods don't like it but we're private and to hell with them. what I want to suggest, that is if your boy is game, is to do a full assembly this afternoon at two o'clock then I would like you and your boy to take the floor and tell or show these little ratbags that the world has all types to make it work not just their idea of what it's like out there, would you do it?"

"As far as I'm concerned, no problem Richard, but the boy has been through a bit today, this is one I'm going to leave up to him, stand up eric you can relax here, so what do you think, do you want to do it?"

"Is that why you dressed me like this James?"

"Yes Eric just in case."

"Then if I'm dressed for it lets go, I'm Mythras Child and not ashamed of who I am."

"Ok Richard it's a go. what about the three boys?"

"Hehehe they're going to be close by and ready for you when you want them."

"Thank you for that Richard, I promise not to hurt them, just scare the shit out of them."

"Good, thats what they need and at the same time show them how brave your little boy really is, I've already heard about some of the other students thinking that Eric was the bravest one to take on all three of them even after he tried to get away, he has a lot of new friends here after today, you know what kids are like, the best hero is always the underdog."

"Thanks from both of us Richard, do you have somewhere we can wait till then?"

"You can both stay here if you like, I've got to do rounds and by then they will be all on their way to the auditorium for assembly, once they are all inside I'll come for you and take you back stage until I announce you both, then it's up to you, ok?"

"Yes thats fine Richard, and thanks for the chance."

"Well it's about time something was done to free up our way of life and this is the best way I can think of doing it."

As he finished Richard headed for the door and then we were alone together.

I put out my arms for Eric to come into and as he rested against my chest I stroked his back and head calming him for the coming event but then I realised he was perfectly calm and just enjoying the rubbing and closeness of the hugs.

"Tonight my little dove, if all goes well today I have something special for you."

"Oh James it's always special when you do things for me."

"Tonight my little dove is extra special."

"Ok James, I'll do my best for you today."

"I know, I know, you always do kiddo, I'm so proud of you for today, what you did and what you tried so hard to do, you heard Richard, a lot of the kids here think you're a hero now, you'll have the respect of others now that you deserve."

"HMMmmmmmm, thank you James."

The time seemed to fly by as I held him in my arms for the next thing I knew was Richard standing there in the doorway.

"You ready then James?"

"Yes Richard, we're ready."

"Ok lets go, I'm going to do a rehash then an introduction after that they're all yours."

"Right you are Richard."

Richard led us down the hall way to a small door and let us into the back of the auditorium, the smell of chalk dust mixed with floorpolish and the other myriad smells of school brought back those long forgotten memeories of my years in the halls of learning and it was then that I realised where my penchant for B&D came from as corporal punishment was the norm in my day at school and when it was my time for the cane I even looked forward to it and at times went out of my way to get caught so I was sent to the heads office for six of the best, it's funny how your younger years set your patterns for your adulthood.

We heard Richard switch on the microphone and then he began to speak to the assembled students, Kingsgate took boys only from the fourth form upward so the youngest was fourteen and the oldest were seventeen, it was a day school only and had no provisions for boarders.

"Good afternooon boys, as you can see we have a special assembly today, this is because this morning three cowards attacked one of the new fourth formers, bullying and then beating him because he was a little different than them, I'm also told that he put up a pretty good defense against three bigger and older cowards."

There came a loud cheer from the boys as this was said, I pulled Eric closer and squeezed him a little.

"Thank you boys, I'm sure the boy concerned appreciates your guesture, now then I want to do something today thats never been done either here or anywhere else in the country, as you know we have a full study course on sex education here, we try to teach you all you should know and we have always answered any and all questions honestly for you, agreed?"

A chorus of 'yes sir's' went around the auditorium.

"Right then so far we have taught you about all types of life styles except one, you know all there is to know about hetrosexuality,homosexuality, transgenderism, prostitution and everything in between, today you are going to see the last one of the lifestyles that there is for you to know about, this life style is called Bondage and Discipline, it's not wildly known about and is practised only by very special people, the basic principle is that one of the people is a teacher, he is called the Master, the other is the student he is called a submissive and also at times is called a Slave, now I'm sure most of you have read or heard about these sorts of people."

There was some loud muttering and mumbling going on as to the good or bad side of what they all thought they knew about the B&D scene until Richard called for quiet.

"OK enough, enough, right then, I have asked some people who know a lot about this type of life style to come here today to tell you about it and themselves, what they do and why they do it, I'm sure they will let you ask questions as well but, one warning, the Master is a real Master not a comic book one, you will at all times show him respect and call him sir, he will not be played with so I'm warning all of you, be on your best behaviour with him. ok thats all so now I introduce you to Founding Prime Master James and his boy."

I turned to Eric and adjusted his clothes, "Stay here till I call for you Eric, then just be you as we are at home ok?"

"Yes James, James?"

"Yes kiddo?"

"Is this a scene?"

"Well sort of Eric, just follow my lead like you always do, ok?"

"Yes James."

Richard came through the curtains as I adjusted my gloves and sash and checked by bowtie.

"Ready Prime Master?"

"Yes Richard, lets do it."

I stood at the opening of the curtsains and closed my eyes for a second and when I was confident that the look of 'I'm going to rip your head off and shove it up your ass' was set in place I opened the curtains and strode to the front of the stage looking out over the students until I saw the three boys in the front row with fresh bruises and cuts on their faces, damn my little dove had done well to have a go at those three buggers, they were taller, heavier, older and stronger than Eric yet he'd left them marked up pretty well considering the circumstances, I glared at the three of them then crooked a finger at them in a guesture of 'come here boys'and stared them down until they got to their feet with sheer terror in their eyes, the rest of the student body was deathly silent as the three stumbled their way up onto the stage. the leader was a good head taller than I was so Eric had done well to still be alive, the other two were about the same height as I was, I found it hard to keep a straight face as I watched three sets of knees shaking and three faces sweating,(haha, gotcha boys, nothing is more scarey than fear itself) when the boys were on stage side by side, I walked over to them still with the 'I want your heads' look.

"You boys will stay there till I tell you to move, no talking, understand?"

Three sets of 'yes sir' came from them.

"Thats your first mistake, I said no talking, KNEEL."

Down they went.

"Hands clasped behind your head, elbows out to the side, DO IT."

Hands jumped up and elbows went out, one boy began to get a wet spot on his jeans.

"You pee on my floor boy and I'll have the skin off you, blink your eyes once if you understand."

One blink and a shuddering of his shoulders.

"Boys, stay as you are, do not move, thats the last time I tell you."

As I turned away from them I allowed my face to settle back into a normal look and then asked the other students for questions so far.

The deathly silence that had been maintained up till then broke out into an uproar and as I glanced at the boys I could see Richard with a smile on his face and a look that asked if i wanted him to regain some control out there, I shook my head then turned to the floor again and looked out at the other students then with a middle of the road voice simple said.

"Silence."

An instant hush fell over the hall.

"Gentlemen, I'll answer all your questions but lets do it slowly ok?"

"Yes sir" came out from all the throats.

Lets start down here at the front then, one question each ok, if you ask something that I'm going to show you later then I'll tell you to wait for then, fair enough?'

"Yes sir"

"OK, you young man, whats yours?"

"Sir, are you going to make them three slaves?"

A snigger could be heard around the hall.

"They already are, young man, next, the boy next to you."

"Sir are you always so hard, like all the time, like night and day?"

"No, there's times that you have to do other things, its not about being hard or tough, its about looking out for the boy under your protection."

"Sir, the head said you have a boy here, is he going to come out for us to see?"

"Yes he'll be here when I call for him."

"Sir, can't he just come out when he wants?"

"No, I've told him to wait till I tell him."

"Sir does he always do what you want him to?"

"Yes, most of the time."

"Sir,what if he doesn't?"

"He gets punished for disobeying me."

"Sir, what sort of punishment?"

"We'll come to that later."

From the corner of my eye I caught a slight movement from the biggest boy,( Ha gotcha) I spun around glaring at the boy.

"Boy, head on the floor, get your butt up, now stay, I told you not to move boy."

I turned back to see the shocked look on the students faces, it had been so quick they didn't have time to adjust.

"Ok gentlemen, one more question before we move on, yes young man with the blue shirt."

"Sir, are there many people like you and your...ahhh...boy?"

"Yes son more than you'd think, ok thats it for now, lets get on a bit, BOY come."

There was a muttering of speculation from the crowd of boys as the curtains parted and a cloaked diminutive figure made its way to the stage to stand by my left should, his cloak from the conclave again masking his face.

"Gentlemen, this is my boy, he is cloaked at the moment for a good reason as you'll all see soon, first you can see he's barefoot and that he has ankle cuffs on, also on the front of the cloak is a silver dove clasp holding it closed, firstly the cuffs are what we call restraints, Boy show your wrists, as you see he wears them on his wrists as well, they can be locked together to stop him from moving or when I want to keep him in one position for his work, secondly the clasp of the dove tells other men like myself that this boy is very special, he is not just a Slave, he is known as The Child of Mythra, he is special in that he will always be a slave and never wants to be a Master which a lot of slaves do become after a time in training, but this boy also has something else special that Im not going to tell just yet, you will see it later, Boy Present."

Erics hands went to his head, the mask staying in positon hiding his face.

"This is known as the first position or the 'Present' it's his way of showing respect to a Master, Boy 'Rest', this is the second position and he uses it for a higher Master or when I'm sitting down, Boy 'Penitence', this is the third position and is used for his punishment or when a Master of very high rank is in front of him. Im sure you boys have seen these positions before?"

Then the hall erupted again into an uproar as the realisation that the three bullies had been made to go through the three positions and I was sure the other students now could see why I said the three others were already slaves, the noise settled down as their laughter at the three bullies subsided, I had on purpose left Eric in the third position.

"Now then you have some questioons, the boy in the second row?"

"Sir, would your...uhmm...boy stay like that for long?"

"Yes, he'd stay there till I tell him to change."

"Sir, even all night?"

"Yes if thats what I want."

A small muttering of admiration went around the hall, not for me but for the boy.

"Sir, could you make the other three do it too?"

"Yes, they would make mistakes at first but I have ways of changing their minnds."

"Sir, what ways?"

"We'll go into that later."

"Sir, can we see your, you know, your ..uhm..boy?"

"Yes ok, Boy stand."

Eric came to his feet now at a relaxed position with his hands by his side waiting for me to continue, I leant close and whispered to him.

"You ready my little dove?"

A whispered."Yes James, I love you."

I wanted to make this sound really special for all the boys in the hall so in a loud clear voice I spoke out.

"Child of Mythra, when I release your cape you will come to 'Present' to show repsect for these young gentlemen, you will not look or speak to anyone, you will not move until I tell you."

I turned my body to shield him from the hall and as I undid the clasp I again whispered

"Do it well little dove"

With my back to the hall I said again over my shoulder.

"Gentlemen, my slave Eric, the Child Of Mythra."

I pulled the cape away and Eric snapped into 'Present' as soon as it was clear from his small body, there was loud gasps and oohs, ahhs, and whispers as they recognised him but now he was dressed in his full regalia including full chastity and body harness, everything was gleaming and shiney, the emblems of the Mythra stood out bright and shiney.

Eric stood stock still, head back, elbows out wide back arched feet close together, I found it hard to see him even breathing, his eyes were clear and bright as he watched me not even seeing the crowd in the hall. I looked around at what seemed like a sea of hands waving in the air to ask questions, I held up my hand for silence and then turned to Eric.

"Boy tell the gentlemen who you are.speak."

"I am Eric, Child of Mythra, Bonded, Double Ringed and Presented Slave of Founding Prime Master James of the Seven Mythra 'May They Preserve'"

I could not help whispering to my lovely little boy.

"Well done Eric that was perfect, I love you little dove."

Shouts of "Sir, Sir, Sir." rang around the hall, I made a quick glance to where Richard stood in the wings, he smiled and nodded his head.I looked over to the three bullies the pain on their faces as their knees felt the hardness of the floor was a delight to see but I also saw that they really didn't want to move, just for luck I gave the three of them another 'knock your head off' look and turned back to the crowd.

"Ok a few more questions then we do a few things for you, yes, you in the fourth row, green shirt."

"Sir, can we ask your b..b..Eric some questioons?"

"Boy you may answer freely any questions from the young gentlemen."

"Yes Master."

"OK guys one at a time, you can ask him anything but be polite to him, he's not just a toy, he's very real and very special, ok the same boy you can be first."

"Ahhm, Eric do you always call him sir?"

"Yes sir, most times unless he tells me not to."

"Eric, when he punishes you, does it really hurt you?"

"Yes sir, it's meant to so that I can learn."

"Eric why do you let him do thinngs to you?"

"I'm a submissive sir, I need to have someone like my Master to protect me and love me."

"He loves you?"

"Yes sir he does and I love him for protecting me and loving me."

"Eric why do you have to have someone to protect you?"

"Because sir, if there was no one to protect me I would try to find someone to do it and it might be someone who doesn't know what they're doing, they might kill me because I couldn't stop them."

"Eric why couldn't you stop them?"

"As I said sir I'm a submissive, I couldn't give an order to stop them, I would just let them do what they wanted to me."

"Eric why do you call everyone here 'sir' we're just boys like you?"

"No sir, you are higher than I am and I have to show you respect at all times, my Master said so."

"Do you have to do everything your, ahhmm.. Master says?"

"He's my Master, I dont have to but I want too, if I make a mistake then he should punish me so I can learn not to do it again."

"Eric do you like the punishments?"

Eric looked over to me and I nodded to him indicating that he tell the whole truth, these boys were asking the questions that they were interested in, it was as far as I was concerned the best way for them to learn, no boring sterilized chatter but real questions from them in terms they could understand and grasp, if we managed to open only one pair of eyes to our ways then it was all worth it.

"Yes sir, most times I do, but my Master has lots of ways and some times he scares me, but I know he would never hurt me, the pain is part of who I am and it is a part of who I want to be."

"Sir, what is the real difference, you said Eric is a slave but he used the term 'Submissive'?"

"There are many words to describe Erics type of person, I'll run through them quickly for you, there is the Helot, the total submissive, the submissive dominant, the dominant submissive and then the dominant,the Helot is from the olden days of the Spartans in old greek times, they took the punishment among other things for the high class people, the total submissives like Eric are just that, they are totally submissive, they don't want to be in charge of anything, they like to be protected and they also need the reminder of order with pain to be happy, they love to be kept to a strict regimen and order, the submissive dominant while being submissive in most things will try to manipulate their Master in some way and in the end will become a Master themselves, the dominnant submissive is more open in his defiance and will usually be found in the harsher and rougher side of the B&D scene, the dominant is always a Master although some will go through a period of being submissive in order to get their training but their agressivness makes them very hard to train."

"Sir, whats this Mythra thing?"

"The Mythra is a code by which we live our lives, there are rules laid down to protect our boys from abuse and danger from a Master, it's also a way of living your life with order and harmony."

"Sir, what if a Master is found to , ahm, you know, like abuse a b..b..boy?"

"If he's a Master of the Mythra we have a special number of people that do the investigation, if they find it's all true the boy is taken away to be cared for and the Master is taken before the council to be punished."

"Sir, who's side do the council take, like you know really?"

"Our first duty is to our boys, they come first in every thing especially in a case of abuse."

"sir does that mean that the ahh, Master is wrong until proven innocent?"

"Exactly, no boy is ever thought to lie, he is to be protected at all costs."

"Sir how good is the investigatioon?"

"Give me your name and telephone number and by tomorrow night I will tell you what your great grandfather had for dinner on his twentieth birthday."

"Well boys it's nearly 3.00 and we have a little to show you yet or with your headmasters permission we could come back another day to continue, what would you like to do?"

A shout went up around the room sir, sir, please can you come back, please sir.?

"Headmaster would that be convenient for the school?"

Richard came onto the stage and looked at all the boys and their begging faces.

"Well Prime Master James we would be glad to have you both back again, it seems you have hit a note with the boys here, when would be suitable?"

"Shall we say Thursday at 1.00, it will give the boys a little more time to ask questions."
