Chapter 8 : Biting off more than we can chew.

Boyd was not having a good day. It all started when his prized asset started throwing his weight around. As head of the trilogy he was going to have to knock that boy... girl... person, down a peg or two but first he had the principle to deal with. That was its own cluster fuck. They seized the faculty office building without any resistance but thank god he and the other 2 members of the trilogy took it upon themselves to personally review the principles notes. The now younger middle aged man had to see it for himself so he and the others took a tour of the storage rooms. 2 tons of food stuffs. Tons. It looked like so much, enough to feed an army. Problem was that Mellveiw high school had an army of 1,553 students in attendance on the average day. 2 tons wasn't even going to last them 2 weeks if everyone was being properly fed. The fuel reserve situation was just as grim and the utterly defeated look on Waber's face only made Boyd want to strike her. Had she just allowed him to take over so that she wouldn't take the blame for the hard choices ahead ?

News of the attacks at the perimeter were just icing on the cake and the cherry on top was the 147 people the now former principle just welcomed onto campus grounds and off the street, adding further drain on their limited resources. “Jesus Fucking Christ.” He rubbed his face to relive tension, a clear display that he was loosing his cool but Harper made no mention of the laps in discipline.

After all she shared his sentiment. “We could certainly use some Jesus level miracles about now. Otherwise were looking at some rather hard choices moving forward.”

Then, when Boyd went to go check up with Daley after lunch he comes to find that the teen had up and decided to start training his, well not a little girl friend as she was an amazon of a young woman at 6' 1”, but clearly Daley was playing fast and loose with the task he had been assigned by training her in tier 4 skills. Shit, Boyd only had 2 of those and it turns out that his student had double that. The, boy, Boyd was going to think of him as a boy seeing as how he was still sporting a Johnson. That boy was going to need to learn his place, especially with him demanding all that extra food that they just didn't have to spare. Not to mention Leavery's report that the teen was using some kind of ability or skill to calm his students and the effect which it had had upon him were even more disturbing.

The male member of the trilogy had actually hoped that things might be taking a turn for the better during Daley's presentation. The student was thankfully not holding back, eager to prove his usefulness. That was until he noticed the sensation come over him. Just as the coach described there was no subtlety, no gradual shift in his mood or desire. Just one moment hes considering how best to decline the boys proposal and the next moment he suddenly realizes that he had a desire to accommodate Daley as though his request was the right and logical course of actions. Not a compulsion, but a gut feeling. Boyd promptly stomped on that feeling and started conversing with his peers, the look in their eyes confirming that they had noticed the attempted manipulations as well.

Davis was clearly pissed and venting her frustration over all the bad news of the day into the current issue. “Well damn Boyd. Its a good thing Leavery gave us a heads up on this or we might as well just put your asset in charge. If he is still your asset ?”

The younger middle aged man nodded with an understanding look on his face. “I will have to pull some leavers I was holding in reserve for later but I know how to bring him back into line. We will simply need to pressure him and make it clear that his attempt to direct the trilogies course was utterly fruitless and I shall handle the rest.”

Both woman shared a look and nodded, Harper voicing their thoughts on the matter. “Oh there is no worry about us demonstrating just how little we care for his manipulations. Just make sure to make it clear to him that that shit wont be tolerated.” Boyd nodded and they got on with discussing just what they were going to do about the supply shortages. Of course Boyd made sure to promote the benefits that his assents suggestions. Paying particular note with regards to the highers skills and a new routine which allowed for the training of higher level personnel, namely them.

The lilin had expected a faster response than this. The fact that they were deliberating and pointedly ignoring him was concerning. Was he really that tired ? He had almost 20% in his Chi bar after dinner. That should have been plenty for the full room auric effect to sway their decision quickly in his favor. He wanted this meeting over with quickly so that he could take some time and try to cultivate before bed.

Instead the teen switched the auric effect form manipulation to sensory and what he found was not promising. There was a lot of anger and agitation between them. Some of it was directed at Boyd and just as much at him but the majority seemed to be on... something else. The teen thought back over the presentation as he took his seat once more at one of the outlining tables.

Maik decided to try something new, rather than sense their emotions, he tried to listen in, to sense the vibration in the air but he was getting nothing. Not just unintelligible noise, but nothing. Another couple shifts of his auric senses and suddenly the teen realized that the 3 were all holding hands. They were sending to each other. Having a conversation in a mental space. Could we listen in ? We should try. It is unlikely that we could without physical contact, at least at our current level. Remember, we have only been able to send to others with their permission. That's right..... You think that's why the auric effect for agreement didn't work ? They weren't accepting of our will ? Well that would just suck, but also explain why it seem so strong earlier too. We will simply need to be more persuasive the old fashioned way. Time to start scribing down a proposed schedule. Do we have too. Not paperwork. Suck it up. Unless you have a better idea on how to convince them to let us influence them this is our best approach.

The lilin began to go over the notes Stacy had taken down and began budgeting out a new approach going forward by calculating how much Chi he had to spend vs what he was trying to do vs what needed to be done based on the instructions he had been given that morning. Fortunately he knew the basics of calculus so this minor arithmetic was easy by comparison, at least it would be easy if he hadn't just spent the entire day exercising his mental focus and will power like he was at boot camp and now at 17% reserves. The teen drops the auric affect, no longer having the strength to maintain it and do math at the same time.

Without really knowing how many levels he might gain while sleeping, the Chi instructor didn't factor in any additional modification points and only stuck with the figures he presently had. He had actually finished the calculation for his own limitations moving forward and was discussing the same with Stacy when the Trilogy had moved on to discussing priorities with the other teacher and officially assigning heads of different departments. The teen thought it was all a bit overly formal but a far cry better than anarchy so he wasn't going to complain.

The agriculture department was going to get every able bodied student they could spare from the patrols and the resource acquisition details. A schedule was outlined for leading a fairly large group of 40 students to the hardware store to grab all the supplies they could bring back on a convoy of 4 busses. 4 Teachers as drivers and 20 students on the first and last transport. It sounded like they intended to strip the place of everything valueable.

Darnell spoke up at that point in the meeting. “If I may, Miss Harper. What is to be our response for any of those who wish to join the convoy and return here ?”

Her tone was level and soothing but carried firm finality. “As we all know by now. All the roads are blocked with disabled vehicles and the way, all the way, to the hardware store will have to be cleared in order for the convoy to reach its goals. We have already taken in well over a hundred poor souls displaced by this disaster and will continue to take in more who are within walking distance. Those individuals at the hardware store however would better be served by making their way to which ever shelter is closer to them. We are responsible for the safety and well being of over One Thousand and Five Hundred students at this facility and we simply do not have the room or facilities to house as many as will wonder in off the street, much less pick more up from across town. At least, not yet. Much work will have to be done before we may, so freely, open our doors.”

Further instruction was to prepare for the materials that the convoy would retrieve when it arrived by the engineering department. Finally they got around to addressing Maik and it was Boyd's turn to speak. “Daley, nobody's saying that you haven't done good work but you experimented yesterday and barely made it through the day after only doing 1/6 the work you did today, if that. I'm not sure having you experimenting is a risk worth taking at the moment, at least not until you have more people trained to be able to take over your duties should you hurt yourself in the process. Now I notice that you've been taking notes. Does any of that help us determine how we should divide up your efforts moving forward ?”

The lilin itched to expand upon his power and try new things. To explore just what all was possible with all this abundant energy available but tempered himself. “Actually I was estimating how much I should be able to accomplish tomorrow, assuming that my calculations are right regarding the Calories to Chi stat point ratio and the expense my skill demand are, at least, roughly accurate. I can go over them as well as my proposal for the most optimum....”

Boyd's raised hand forestalled him. “Those are details that are more specific to you rather than relivent to a group meeting like this. Suffice that some of your time will be dedicated to bringing others up to your level as well as continuing to help people on the fast track to gaining the 'Mind & body' skill. Just bring the documents by my office after the meetings I might have questions regarding your calculations. Then, after I've reviewed your findings we can make informed arrangements tomorrow.”

The teen nodded along, his mind a buzz with possibility. Okay, we still have a chance. Sure the auric affect didn't work on the whole group but in a one on one encounter we might still be able to pull it off. Yessss, were back in business. It might very well be that the difficulty of the skill scales with the number of people we are trying to influence. Its worth a shot.

The remainder of the meeting narrows down to the specifics. Who would be assigned what tasks. Which teachers would be the drivers, Coach Leavery was, of course, in charge of the convoy and had the most say over who he was taking with him. From there different department heads essentially started calling dibs on various students until all of the 'enlightened', as those who's Chi flow had been stabilized, either by Maik or by Darnell were now being called, had all been picked. Extra help would be requested of the remaining student body and volunteers would be offered advancement to being helped by either Maik or Darnell. Everyone else could study the instruction sheets provided or pray the way Darnell suggested.

Finally the meeting was over and the teen thanked his friend for her help before heading over to follow Boyd to the faculty office building. Maik considered starting up conversation along the way and even trying to use his auric effect as they walked but his reserves were rather low so he just focused on his chi flow as he walked, willing the Bar to fill just a little faster before they reached the teachers office and the real battle of wills would begin. Besides, in the close and confined space the lilin could add pheromones to the mix for added effect.

Boyd's new office wasn't the principles. Instead it was one of the former deans offices on the second floor and had clearly been gone through with some of the filing cabinet drawers still open. The teacher closed them on the way past before leaning back on the desk to face the teen and holding out his hand expectantly. “Alright Daley. Lets here it.” The Chi instructor wastes no time in handing over the document he had prepared in a way that made sure their hands made plenty of contact as the lilin sent Boyd a request for mental link. The not so middle aged man agreed and the connection was established.

Were in. Start the pheromones. Roger. Auric field and effect up.

The lilin started delivering his pitch while holding the teachers hand, sending Boyd images that were laced with his desire for him to accept the ideas they represented while pheromones spread out and the auric field went to work on the teachers mood. “So as you can see by the projections I should have ample reserves to train another 3 classes like today in the morning and then move on to groups of 5 or 6 that I impart with a couple tier 4 skills each. This should be more than enough to take care of the teachers needs, provide incentive for those on patrol and train up select members of the student body to act as representatives that inspire the other students to contribute more. All of that can be accomplished while also leaving me just enough to do just a small amount of exploration into further understanding this new system. After all just look at what my tinkering has already done for us. Just imagine the benefits to the group of what else I might learn.”

Of course that third group, the student body representatives would be Maik's friends but that was the least Boyd could give him for all that the lilin was doing for the group as a whole.

There was no reaction form the teacher for several long moments and the Chi instructor started to falter from the strain of keeping all those effects up continuously. It was then that the teen received a mental pulse back across their link. Not a message. More like a heavy wave of energy that flowed through the whole of Maik's being filled with.... and intent ? Something like his auric effect perhaps. The teen opened his mouth to speak but the teacher started talking. “I want to agree to all of this Daley. I really do, but there are interests that the others of the trilogy are pursuing and I have to make concessions. Now I appreciate all that you have and are doing for the good of the school but your not the only one working hard to that end. I'm already sparing some of my rations for your meals...”

A sudden and crystal clear recollections of the off handed remark the teen had made last night came back to him. (“I'm utterly Chi deprived, Tired from manual labor and starving. Who's dick do I have to suck around here for a second helping ?”) And then the teachers replay (“Well I was wondering what to give you as thanks for your help so fare so if you really need a little extra that badly then I can oblige you.”) A feeling that a debt still needed to be paid accompanying the memory but the lilin had little time to think that over as Boyd was still talking.

“Which you still haven't even thanked me for, despite proffering such overly dramatic gratitude by the way. Although after going a full day on half rations I'm starting to think that your offer was more genuine than I had first thought. So why should I make any further concessions on your behalf ?”

Is he saying what I think hes saying ? Hes been hungry all day ? Could be. We need to put that idea to rest. Yeah, good idea.

With an attempt at a jovial voice Maik starts trying to back track. “Boyd ! Come on, I was tired, and rung out. It was just..”

There was another pulse as the teachers grip on the teen hand tightened and he stepped forward getting right up and face to face with the lilin. “Just what Maik ?” The teacher takes another step forward, his greater body weight and the suddenness of the action forcing the teen to take a step back.

The lilins auric effect flickers in the moment of imbalance but he brings it back up with a desperate attempt to push new calming intent into the effect this time, no longer concerned with winning the meeting but only in keeping the person in front of him from doing anything drastic. The teens voice was equally a measure of controlled panic as he responded. “Just the hunger talking. Just the hunger and the stress and....”

The next words died in Maik's throat when the teacher took another step forward and this time the teen nearly tripped over the chair behind him. That wasn't what arrested the lilins voice though, for at the same time Boyd's free hand reached for and gripped the the towel. The improvised garment the teen had been wearing all day to cover his badly ripped open pants. Boyd ripped open the towel and flings the improvised garment to the side. The badly ripped open pants, barely held up by a belt that was fastened to the last hole were on full display, stretched boxer shorts that barely managed to contain the plump rear and wide hips within spilling out or each tear in the trousers.

Maik reached back with his free hand, grasping at the chair for balance while the no so middle aged mans free hand released the towel only to come back around towards the teen rear. At the same time the teacher was speaking in a voice that was accusatory but also breathy and heavy. “And I suppose THIS..” His hand struck with a hard smack right onto the lilins right ass cheek and right where only the boxers offered any protection to boot. The shock and stink of being spanked by his teacher makes Maik half jump in place with a yelp that is barely audible over the teacher gruff and breathy words. “Has nothing to do with it huh ?”

Another step is taken as Boyd maintains the momentum only this time its used his grip on that plump rear to turn Maik to the side, avoiding the chair but pressing the teen up against the wall. There was a third pulse during that step and the lilin lost control. The auric effect collapsed, pheromones went wild and coherent thoughts stopped being regulated across their connection. Instead raw emotions of desire and arousal flooded the connection and into the teen. He tried to break the connection but it was already firmly locked in, only breaking physical contact would sever their link at this point. With a trembling voice Maik tried to stop things from escalating any further. “Boyd ? Boyd Wait.” the teens left hand pressing on the not so middle aged mans right bicep to try and separate them while the teachers left hand groped and squeezed Maik's rear, their right hands locked together between them and held tight together by the teachers grip.

Boyd maneuvered his legs and stance to keep the teen pinned to the wall while Maik pushed and wiggled to try and get free. Then the teacher managed to slip his left leg in between the lilins legs, pushing his thigh right up between the teens legs and is rewarded with a gasp from his student. “Boyd ! Hurrrn. Boyd your leg. Eeeeeyaahh. Move you leg. Haaahh. Please.”

The teacher presses his face into the left side of the students neck and licks it, causing Maik to shudder before responding to the teens request by whispering directly into the lilins ear with a hushed tone. “I'll move it for you Maik.” The not so middle aged man uses his grip on the lilins rear as a handle as the begins grinding his thigh back and forth between the teens legs. This causes the loose fabric of Maik's ripped up pants to grind back and forth lower his lower lips and the sensation elicits a light moan from the teen with every stroke. “Hooooo.... Ooooooohh.... Hollllllly.... Fffffffuuuck.... Ohhhhhhhhh... Nnnnnoooo.... Boyyyyyyyd !... Ohhhhfuuuck... Weeee neeeed.... Weeee nnneeed... too sstoop.... Boyyyd ?”

Images of the kinds of things the teacher could and would do to the lilin were flashing into his mind, much of it involving bondage. This is out of control. We have lost control. Ohhh My God, are we wet ? I think we're wet. This is incredible. Okay abort. We have clearly overestimated out ability and bitten off way more than we can chew. Abort. Try pinching him to snap him out of it. Let it happen.

Boyd was licking and kissing his way up and down the left side of the teens neck and issuing the occasional word of acknowledgment to his students request that they stop. “Do you...” More kissing. “Really want too ?” Another lick. “Sounds to me like...” Licks the ear lobe. “ Your enjoying thISS ?” The not so middle aged man grunts from where the teen was pinching his side, the sting making his face grimace, but also making him pause from where his now moist thigh had been grinding the teen ever closer to orgasm. “URRRNnnnn.” Boyd did not like being interrupted like that so he leaned in and bit down on the students neck hard enough to leave a mark and the resumed grinding his thigh between Maik's legs.

The teen let out a subdued wail from the bite. “wwWWWWAaaaahhhhyyy ?” And stopped pinching the teacher. “Whhyyy.... Boyyyyd ?... BOYYYYD ?... Boyyyd yourrr Biiiting meee ! Yourrr... gasp... Yourrr... Yourrr nnnnot... Goooing tooo.... Stooop !”

We need to do something. If he makes us cum hes... He is going to fuck us. Let it happen. Logic ! Primal has given in. What do we do ? Its clear that Boyd also has something like our auric effect, His version is just limited to the sending skill. If we can break the connection we might be able to deescalate the situations. Let it happen. Too late to stop it anyway. Holy shit I think were about to orgasm. Ohhh fuck... Ohhh fuck. Okay. Okay. I have an Idea and its kinda stupid but there is a chance it might work. Well your the idea part of our consciousness, I'm all ears.
