I hung up the phone and sighed. Time to start our next assignment, Harley's movie shoot in Japan. The big problem was that Japan didn't allow guns into their country, so weapons would be a serious problem, especially if the bad guys had the guns and not me. I don't like those odds. Another big problem would be getting Sacha on a flight. Even though government officials gave him a medical certificate he would still be banned from a commercial flight. I wished I had my own jet so I could avoid these problems. Okay. One thing at a time. According to Mac the movie people now wanted Powersound in the movie and to do a soundtrack as well. More people to mind. I scratched my chin and wondered if I could get a few of the guys in Peckertown to tag along. I made up my mind. We were leaving for Peckertown at first light.

"Okay guys, pack it up. We leave at first light for Peckertown," I said.

Danny looked up. "I'll service the Lear and have it ready to rock in the morning. How about everyone pack now and I can stash the baggage on board so all we have to do is lock down the place and be off at first light."

I nodded. "Good plan, and pack for a long trip. First Peckertown, and then Japan. No weapons for this gig."

Sacha looked up from the card game he was playing with the others. "Not even my personal set?" he asked, popping his claws.

I grinned. "You're the exception and the ace in the hole if it comes down to it. I'm not expecting trouble, but you never know. Shit and Mr. Fucking Murphy can happen."

Sacha laughed. "Then it would be my pleasure to slice and dice his ass."

"Be my guest kiddo," I grinned ruffling his hair.

I looked at the table and it seemed like Sacha was winning again. I turned and went into the kitchen for a cup of coffee. I was worried about Shiro and hoped he was okay. First chance I got I'd sit down with him and find out what in hell was going on in his head. I should have known that he would jet to Japan and take Harley with him. I decided to call Asano Takaneda.

"Moshi-moshi?" the voice sung at me.

"English, damn ya!" I snarled by way of greeting.

"Ah, this must be the crazy American who likes his Sake ice cold," the voice snapped back at me.

I had to smile. The first time we met, we had stared each other down. He didn't like me, and I didn't like him. Our opinions of each other changed after we chased some very nasty tangos and cashed their chips in for them. After that we had gone out drinking. The pub we went to had run out of hot sake and I had guzzled it straight out of the ice cold bottle and loved it ever since then.

"Still like it that way, bubba. Makes life look a hell of a lot better after a few," I said as I laughed.

Takaneda laughed as well. Then he got down to business. "I take it you heard from your friend in Hollywierd?" he asked.

"That's Hollywood," I said. "Yeah I heard from him. I have one big problem, and that's moving people from here to there, especially one very unique individual."

"I can solve that problem. Call you back on that?" he asked.

"Sure. We are flying into Peckertown in the morning," I said.

"I must come out and see that place for myself one of these days," Asano said.

"Guaranteed to make you a round eye by the time you leave," I joked.

He snorted. "In your hairy wet dreams."

"At least I have them," I shot back.

Asano sighed as I laughed. "I call you in a few hours. Sayonara."

I leaned back and took another hit off my sake glass. Things were heating up.

***

Danny leveled the Lear out at 15,000 [5,000 m] the next morning as I sat at my desk and brainstormed. I tried to come up with names of individuals that I knew in Japan besides Asano that could help. The Peckertown branch couldn't spare any extra people at the moment so we were on our own again, as usual. The phone on my desk rang.

"Rainbow Jock Strap Company," I answered.

The explosion of laughter from the other end told me it was Asano. "Happy Happy Joy Joy Delivery," he snapped back.

Close enough. "I take it somebody's been making you happy?" I asked.

"Yes, and that's all I will say. Your transportation problem has been solved. A very private jet will be at Little Rock Arkansas within twenty-four hours. All you need to know is that everything has been set up and taken care of here," Asano informed me.

"Thanks Asano. I appreciate your efforts," I said.

"I aim to please," he said and hung up.

I went and informed everyone of the time schedule and then called Marc Fogel. He wasn't in, so I left a message and then called Zeus.

"Yo," he said when he picked up.

"Now that's original," I said.

He laughed. "Thanks, Logan. What's up?"

I gave him the lowdown and he whistled. "I'll get things cranked here and by tomorrow morning all of the band's gear will be packed and ready to go. Can't spare any people," he said and I sighed.

"I know. The Yamane Brothers got their hands full at the moment protecting a few people. Hope that's going okay," I said.

"As far as I know it is. No problems yet," Zeus informed me. "Besides Yoshi and Jeff can handle most anything and so can Dustin. He's someone I wouldn't want to cross. He can be deadly when pushed."

"Make sure you tell them no weapons. Japan has a thing about guns," I said.

"That sucks. Sounds like you'll be keeping your eight inches [20 cm] in its holster the entire time," Zeus cracked.

I groaned as he roared with laughter. "One of these day, big man, one of these days."

"Promises, promises," he retorted. "I'll see you when I see you."

He hung up on me and I took another long drink of sake. I wondered if it was too late to back out of this thing. I hoped it would be a good job.

All of us stood on the runway the next morning and stared at the jet sitting on the runway. The markings indicated it was a private jet. Who it belonged to wasn't quite clear until Yoshi read the Kanji script.

"Oh my God, this plane belongs to Clan Yaguu," he said softly.

That name rang bells in my head. I had heard of them when I was in Japan on an exchange mission. I knew they had their fingers into almost everything, legal and not so. The not so legal part could never be proved, even though there was plenty of evidence that pointed to them. Every time Asano tried to move in on them, witnesses disappeared. For right now I would accept their help. But if they harmed Shiro or anyone under my care, there would be hell to pay.

"Let's get on board," I said.

Danny led the way as Yoshi turned to watch the crates of equipment being loaded. I stood on the runway and watched the workers load them on board the plane. The foreman walked over after he inspected everything.

"All in place and very secure," he reported to Yoshi.

"Thank you," Yoshi grinned.

The baggage compartments were closed, locked, and sealed. Yoshi and I climbed on board and stopped at the hatch. The plane was unlike anything I'd ever seen. Someone had spent some serious money to outfit the thing with the absolute best. Yoshi and I took our seats as the captain came back. He bowed to Yoshi.

Is everything to your satisfaction? he asked.

Yoshi returned the bow. Yes it is. We can leave when you are ready.

I looked at Yoshi and he told me what had been said. I felt the slight vibrations of the engines starting.

"Buckle up," I called out as I put my seatbelt on.

The take off was nice and smooth. Once we were in the air, everybody started moving around freely. Sammo sat down at a table and pulled out a deck of cards as Neil, Sacha, Danny, Connor, and Nelson sat down. Dustin and Nico found a place in the back of the plane and snuggled up together and dozed off. I called Yoshi and he and Jeff came over and sat in the chairs next to me. In a whisper I asked if they'd seen my son while he was in Peckertown. They looked at each other and then at me. "He stayed with us the first night and Harley the second. He was not himself but seemed to be getting better by the time he and Harley left."

"Thanks guys, appreciate that. Really glad he had friends he could turn to." I said, feeling a bit better.

Yoshi looked at me, understood my unasked question.

"I don't know why he couldn't talk to you Logan-san. Shiro really didn't tell us much either." Jeff said.

"Thank you, thanks for looking after my son." I smiled.

Yoshi and Jeff found their own spot and Yoshi tuned up an acoustic and the both of them worked on some material for the show and the soundtrack. I sat down at an elegant desk and picked up the package that had been delivered to me by the flight attendant. It was the script for the movie and I started reading it. Halfway through it I was served sandwiches and coffee. I took a break to eat and then resumed reading. Next thing I knew I was being shaken awake.

"We're landing, Dad. Better buckle up," Neil informed me.

I snapped to and everyone was taking seats for the landing. The plane landed nice and smooth and came to a stop. The door opened and Asano came in with an immigration man. The passport man did his thing as I watched. He stamped each passport and then handed them back with a bow.

Asano turned to me. "Welcome back to Japan, Logan-san."

"We are honored to be guests in your country. Thank you for inviting us," I said as I bowed.

Asano smiled and returned the bow. "We are honored to have all as guests in our country. Thank you for coming."

"Is everything set up?" I asked.

"Of course. Shiro is waiting, and we shall explain all when we get there," he said.

We got off the plane and Yoshi turned to the ground crew to watch them unload the crates. One of them contained our baggage as well.

Toranaga-san, everything will be handled safely. Please do not worry, Asano said to him. How is your father?

Yoshi smiled. My father is well. Do you know him?

Of course. We went to the University together. That is where he met your Mother, Asano said.

That's right! Yoshi exclaimed.

Asano turned to face us. "The limo is over there. Plenty of room for us all."

Yoshi took one more look at the crates and then followed us to the car. There was plenty of room for all of us. Asano jumped in the passenger seat and gave the driver his instructions. The guys looked out the windows at the sights as we rolled through the city of Nagasaki. The place was just as I remembered it.

"Not much has changed," I said.

"Some things have, others have not," Asano said. "The way it is."

He was right about that. But life goes on and so must we.

***

It took us an hour to get to where we were going. The limo rolled through the gates of a huge estate by the ocean. I had seen big places before, but this one was the biggest of all, the Emperor's Palace being the biggest. The limo stopped and I got out first and looked around. The others got out behind me.

Neil nudged me in the ribs, getting my attention. "Dad."

I looked up in the direction of the stairs leading to the front door of the house to see Shiro coming towards us. He looked very Samurai in a formal kimono with the traditional swords in place. I was so glad to see him. He stopped in front of me.

"Father," he said, bowing.

"Son," I said, returning the bow. "It's good to see you again."

He smiled the familiar happy smile. "I'm glad to see you, Dad. I want you to meet someone. He's been wanting to meet you."

He turned and I saw an older man coming towards us dressed in the same manner as Shiro. He stopped in front of us.

"Dad, this is my Grandfather, Hejiro Onashi. Grandfather, this is my adopted father, David Logan," he said introducing us.

The man bowed to me. "I am honored to meet my grandson's adopted father. The clans Onashi and Harada owe you a debt of honor."

I was totally flabbergasted. I returned the bow at once.

"Onashi-san, I am honored to meet you. Shiro was in danger and I was duty bound to save him. I asked him to come and live with me as my son. It was his choice to," I said.

"I am glad he chose well. He has told me much about you. I know you have many questions, and they will be answered in time. Are all these your sons as well?" he asked, pointing to the other boys.

Shiro laughed. "We'd need a hotel to house them all, Grandfather!"

Sammo was the next to be introduced. Hejiro smiled at him.

"So this is the boy who has captured your heart," he said, taking Sammo's hand into his.

"Yes sir," Shiro replied.

Hejiro guided Sammo's hand to Shiro's and pressed them together. "I give both of you my blessing and wishes for a long happy life together."

There was a bit of applause as Shiro hugged his Grandfather and then Sammo hugged the old man. That made me feel good. I was glad Hejiro had accepted Shiro's being gay. Shiro then introduced the rest of the group. Yoshi bowed to Hejiro.

I am honored to meet you, Onashi-san, he said.

Hejiro smiled. I am honored to meet you and your mate.

The introductions over, it was time to get down to business.

"How secure is this place?" I asked Shiro.

"Very secure, Dad. Clan Yaguu has a platoon of ninja in addition to the ones in uniform hidden all over the estate. By now photos of all of you will have been seen by all of them and they know of Samurai Inc. Some of the film work can be done here, Yoshi and the band can play in the recording studio here on the grounds anytime they want, and the rest of the film work can be done close by. The three Japanese boy actors will be arriving later this evening. I've made up room assignments for everybody, so let's go in the house and get settled in. I know you have questions, so you, me, and Grandpa can sit down someplace and talk," Shiro said.

I nodded. "Yes, I do have lots of questions."

Shiro led us into the house and Japanese boys in plain brown kimonos led each couple off to their rooms to settle in and then show them around the house. Shiro led Hejiro and me to a small sitting room and closed the door behind us. For the next hour or so, I listened to Hejiro's story and shook my head once he finished.

"Really pisses me off how someone could do that to a person. One of the reasons why I joined the Navy Seals straight out of high school. I wanted to do something to protect the world. After leaving the Seal teams, forming Samurai Inc with Shiro seemed to be the right thing to do after that first job in Colorado, remember Shiro?" I asked him.

Shiro smiled. "Having Jake Llewellyn with us was an experience."

"We did take out the baddies," I reminded him.

Shiro grinned. "That was the fun part."

"Shiro was always standing up for people, even when he was little. I knew that he would be a fine man someday and I am glad he is." Hejiro said.

I raised my sake glass. "I'll drink to that!"

We clinked glasses and knocked back the sake. "Have you considered what you are going to do now?"

"No. All my businesses are gone. The Clan properties are gone, and so is my personal fortune. Acceptable losses. The only thing that truly matters to me is being with Shiro again. My wish now is to spend my remaining days with my grandson." Hejiro said as he set his cup down.

I looked up. "Then I am formally inviting you to join Samurai Inc."

I accept you invitation. I will do what I can. I can make sure Shiro's skills are sharp and teach the other boys what I can." Hejiro accepted.

"Deal," I said. "Neil and Sacha are very unique individuals."

"I briefed him on them already Dad," Shiro said.

Hejiro smiled. "I would like to see both of them in action first before starting their training. I can teach them things to augment their skills."

"Works for me," I said. "Will you be able to get out of Japan?"

"Shiro and I have been given citizenships here. The USA has recognized it and offered me a citizenship as well. I have accepted their offer," Hejiro said.

I sighed in relief. "That takes care of that problem."

Shiro stood up. "Feel like having the tour?"

"Sure," I said. "Need to know the layout so we can plan a few defensive moves."

***

The house was huge as I had stated earlier. The ground floor had the usual kitchen, big formal dining, a great room to rival mine at home, an audio/visual room, a dojo with weight room attached, and a reading room with lots of current novels. The second floor was just as impressive. There were at least a dozen bedrooms, all big enough to stick an entire football team into. There was a huge room at the end of the hall that turned out to be the traditional baths. I smiled when I saw it.

"This is nice," I commented.

Shiro grinned. "Thought you would approve. I'm headed into the city in about an hour to go and pick up the three actors joining us with a ninja team I've been working with."

I nodded, watching Hejiro open a door and peek in, and then suddenly backing out quickly. He closed the door quietly and looked a bit embarrassed. Uh oh. This didn't look good.

"Problem?" I asked, concerned.

"Ah, two of your boys is doing things to Oswald-san," he said quietly.

I opened the door quietly and peeked in. Sure enough, Sacha and Neil had Harley lying on the bed naked and both of then were getting him off. I closed the door and wondered how I was going to explain this. Shiro and his Grandfather had walked down the hall and were talking. I couldn't hear what was being said, but it looked like Hejiro would be okay with this. Shiro walked back to me as Hejiro went back down.

"He needs some time to think about this and what I told him," Shiro said. "I told him the truth about what he saw."

I nodded. "He was bound to find out sooner or later. Let's hope he is cool with this."

"I think he will be," Shiro said. "I gotta go, Dad."

We were alone for the first time so we hugged, carefully with his swords, but for the first time in a while Shiro felt like himself.

I was feeling a bit tired so I retired to my bedroom. One of the houseboys followed me into my room.

"Logan-san want bath and massage?" he asked.

"Yes please," I replied.

I had experienced a traditional bath many times when it was just Shiro and I and I can tell you they are great. This boy was a natural at it. His massage skills were top notch and his lovemaking skills were outstanding. He got me so relaxed I went to sleep.

When I woke the next morning, the boy had a cup of hot coffee waiting for me and he was giggling.

"What's so funny?" I asked with a smile.

"Danny-san funny. He like boy cream in coffee," the boy explained.

I grinned. "I know. He is funny, but a good man."

I got up and took a shower. The boy dressed me and led me out to the porch where he served me breakfast. Danny and his boy arrived a moment later. The boy had a huge smile on his face. I couldn't keep from laughing. One of the security officers pointed to something in the yard and I looked to see Sacha disappear into a bush. About a few dozen feet I saw Hejiro finishing a Tai Chi kata and then sit on the ground and start to meditate. I watched Sacha creep through the bushes and up to Hejiro. Before he could touch the man, Hejiro suddenly reacted by grabbing Sacha and hip tossing him. I sat up and blinked. Sacha was no lightweight. The boy was about two hundred some pounds [90 kg] due to the adamatium bonded to his skeleton. Add in his healing factor and the six razor sharp adamatium claws and that makes him a very DF (deadly fucker). Sacha reacted like he had trained to by landing on his feet and pressing the attack. No matter what he did, Hejiro countered ever one of his moves and then pressed an attack of his own, forcing Sacha to work hard at defending himself. I was glad he was on our side. Sacha finally backed off and they looked at each other. They came up to the breakfast table. Sacha bowed first.

"You are very good," he said.

"Thank you. So are you. You have much more potential," Hejiro said. "I can teach you to be even better. You have talent."

"Thank you. I can see where Shiro got his skills from," Sacha said as he sat down and reached for the orange juice.

"Shiro has briefed me on everyone and their skills. As time permits I would like to test all of you," Hejiro said.

"I hope the group policy has been paid and updated," Danny joked.

Harley walked up to the table at that moment, wearing a kimono. "I like these, they are so comfortable. What's the plan for today?"

I thought for a moment. "Well Shiro has yet to show up with Itsuhiko, Haruki, and Yasuyuki. I was tired when I went to bed early yesterday."

One of the security guards stepped forward. "They came in around eight yesterday evening. Harada-san seemed to be upset about something."

I nodded. "I bet he went to see the house where he used to live and then to pay his respects to his parents."

Hejiro nodded. "I wished I had never gone on the trip. His parents would still be alive."

"You don't know that, sir. None of us know what the future holds for us. All we can do is keep on going and hope our karma is good," I said.

By now everyone had joined us at the table. Shiro was the last to arrive and he introduced Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki to everybody. Hejiro stood up and went to Shiro. Both of them left the porch and walked down to the gardens. I turned my attention to the table and was dismayed to find nearly everything gone.

Haruki looked at me. "Problem, Logan-san?"

"You guys didn't leave much of anything," I said.

Yasuyuki smiled. "But we are growing teens."

All the teenagers roared with laughter as I groaned in dismay. Teenagers.

***

We met in the conference room to discuss what and how we would do things. The first big surprise was Guy Truant walking in. Harley perked up.

"Folks, this is Guy Truant. He directed Aaron and me in a movie and did a super job. I'm glad he's here," Harley said.

"I was surprised when Mac told me I was invited to direct this project. I thought one of Japan's top directors would be doing it. Unfortunately he had to back out. I was very happy to learn you were involved, Harley. Good to see you kid. I have a list of the participants in the movie right here and want to meet you all," Guy said as he put his briefcase on the table.

I reached for my cell and whipped it open, making a quick call to Arkansas.

"Dave Logan of Samurai Inc calling. Is he still wrapped up tight?" I asked the warden of the prison where Flamingo was staying for his assault on Harley (see chapters 5). "He is? Thanks for your time."

Guy looked at me with a puzzled look.

"Flamingo is still wrapped up at the hotel Arkansas," I said.

Harley fell over laughing as Yoshi grinned. Guy smiled.

"You know, I'd forgotten about him," he admitted.

"Forgot who?" Shiro asked as he walked in with Hejiro.

"Flamingo," Neil informed Shiro. "He's still wrapped up at the hotel Arkansas."

Shiro grinned. "Good. I still can't believe you and Zeus stuffed him in a box and Fedexed him back to LA."

Guy laughed out loud. "Mac told me later that when he saw Flamingo gagged and bound in the box he nearly dumped in his silk boxers. I wish I had been there to see it."

The Japanese contingent stared at us as we laughed.

"Long story. I'll explain later. Guy, the show is yours," I said.

The discussion lasted an hour and a half and it was very intense. Lots of ideas and suggestions were put up and either rejected or agreed to. Yoshi and the band discussed possible music scores for certain scenes, one of the guys having his keyboards with him.

"We have already established our play list for the show. We have to do all the needed scenes in one take. No way in hell we could do this again," Yoshi stated.

"Going to practice a few times?" Itsuhiko asked.

"Yup," Connor said.

"Cool. I like you guys. Got your CD's at home," he said. "Even my folks approve of you guys."

"Really? We're hated by quite a few people," Jeff said.

"Why is that?" Hejiro asked.

Travis laughed. "Because we are an openly gay teen band."

"What's wrong with that?" Haruki asked.

Harley sighed. "Nothing at all. But there are people who think that being gay is wrong."

"That's stupid," Itsuhiko said.

I shrugged. "Just the way it is. It doesn't bother me one bit."

"Speaking of practicing, we will need a week of rehearsals to work out the kinks and the bugs in the script. Anytime during the rehearsals any of you actors feel that something needs to be changed, don't be afraid to shout out," Guy said. "The more suggestions and ideas, the better."

Harley, Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki nodded.

"Me and the guys can meet later and go over the script once more before we start rehearsals," Harley said.

"Cool," Haruki grinned.

"Security arrangements," Guy said, steering the meeting back on track.

I stood up and came around the table. "After looking over the estate, I think we can do the majority of the movie right here. There are several rooms that can be moved around and used for different sets. Outdoor stuff can be shot with no problem. The lakeside scene can be shot at the pond with no problem. As for security, the Clan Yaguu has been kind enough to provide us with a number of men to cover the grounds and the house areas. I am assigning one man per celebrity. The following pairs are as follows: Neil and Yasuyuki, Sacha and Haruki, Sammo and Itsuhiko, and Danny and Harley. Since Yoshi is skilled, he and Jeff can stay together. I'll cover Connor, Dustin can cover Travis, and Nico can cover Brian. Shiro and Hejiro are my aces I'll keep hidden for now. So everyone move around into new rooms except for Shiro and Sammo, and we'll convene again around one to discuss the script. Shiro and Hejiro please stay behind."

The room cleared and Shiro and Hejiro remained seated. "The only reason I didn't assign both of you to a person is that you two had just recently reunited and have much to catch up on. I also get the feeling that Hejiro wishes to close his affairs here before coming home with us."

Hejiro smiled and stood. "Yes, you are right. I am looking to see what can be salvaged from the company. I know it is a lost cause, but I would like to try and sell it to another company that can take the remaining employees and give then a reason to keep going."

I nodded. "Shiro can help you with that."

"Shiro said that you were a good man. I can see he was right. I wish to make you an offer you cannot refuse," he said.

I smiled as Shiro laughed. "What is that offer?"

"I would like to train Sacha in the Ninja Arts. The boy has potential," Hejiro said.

I nodded. "Include Neil in that offer and it is a done deal."

Hejiro smiled. "What are his abilities?"

"He is a telepath/telekinetic," I replied.

Hejiro's eyes went wide. "Oh Ko!" he exclaimed. "He definitely would be a natural."

"Good. I'll order him to attack you later," I said.

Shiro laughed out loud. "This I have to see."

***

All of us sat on the porch later that afternoon as Hejiro strolled about the grounds, checking the security placements. I saw Neil sneak from tree to tree, barely floating above the ground. Two of the security guards saw that and pointed to him. Next thing I knew he fell out of a tree and landed in front of Hejiro and started his attack by popping his deranged wolf illusion. Hejiro responded by attempting a kick, which went through the laughing wolf. Neil acted on Hejiro's surprise by launching a flying kick, which Hejiro barely blocked. Neil then caused the wolf to do a frontal attack. Hejiro surprised me by reaching through the wolf and attacking Neil. I was surprised to see Hejiro's hands go through Neil. The real Neil laughed from Hejiro's left side and got chopped for that one. The illusion disappeared and Hejiro pressed his attack. Neil did his best to defend himself and launched another illusion as quickly as he could, this time of a ten-foot [3 m] ninja. Hejiro merely laughed and leaped through the illusion and tackled Neil. Neil hip tossed the old man who landed on his feet nimbly. Neil then launched a second one and had both ninjas press an attack. Hejiro elbowed both aside and charged Neil. Neil front flipped over Hejiro and then dropped, attempting to sweep Hejiro's feet from under him. The fight ended when Hejiro caught a foot and very neatly rolled up Neil for the pin. Neil surrendered and both of them came up to the house.

"Very nicely done," I said.

"He certainly gave me a run for my money. I can see where Shiro got his skills," Neil said, flopping down into a chair.

"You did well. Your illusions did throw me at first, but then using them as distractions was good. Using the vines to try and trap me was another good idea. There is so much more I can train you to do. I will enjoy teaching you and Sacha," Hejiro said.

Guy arrived right then and passed copies of the script around and the discussion got started on the script. Changes were proposed and accepted. The basic idea behind the movie was that Harley would play an American kid lost in Japan and the three Japanese boys would help him. The movie would include an action sequence where a bad guy would chase Harley into a crowd at a concert. That's where Yoshi and the band came in. The concert would be staged at a venue close by. The two scenes slated for the concert was discussed. Harley's safety during his run through the crowd was discussed. The head security guy suggested sprinkling a bunch of his people into the crowd along the route Harley would take. There would be a number of cameramen along the route to capture the scene. All the actors involved finally approved the script and rehearsals would start the next morning and run for a week. Guy wanted to make absolutely sure it ran smooth with no problems. Hejiro and Shiro would head into the city in the next day or two to get things going in regards to Hejiro's company. I hoped everything would go well for both of them, especially Hejiro.

I retired around nine with the houseboy following me to my room. I watched him undress in front of me and smile.

"I skilled in pillowing arts," he said.

I patted the bed next to me and he slipped in next to me. I found out he wasn't exaggerating either. He certainly knew a thing or two about getting fucked. I had a big smile on my face the next morning.

The rehearsals started the next morning, the four principals doing just a script reading. Yoshi and the band were in the recording studio, working on putting the soundtrack together. I was feeling a bit bored so I went to the weight room and started working out. Guy was sitting with the three teens so I wasn't really worried about their safety. Sacha was right there as well. I looked out on the great lawn and saw Hejiro teaching Neil a few things and it looked like he was picking it up fairly quick. I turned back to my workout. The next time I looked at the clock it was around noon. I was feeling hungry. I went out to the dining area on the outdoor patio just in time to see the boys come running. I quickly scooped some food on a plate and stood back.

"The first reading went well, "Guy said, appearing next to me.

I nodded. "Good. Any new ideas?"

"A few. I'll run them past you later once I get them written up," Guy said.

We sat down at the table with our plates and had lunch. Guy sat back and sighed.

"These folks can cook," he sighed.

I had to laugh. "They sure can."

"Since the first read through is done, let's relax a bit this afternoon and just get to know each other," Guy suggested to the teens at the table. "I don't think it's really fair to be working together for two months and not take the time to get to know each other."

Now that sounded like a great idea to me. I looked around the great lawn area and to the pool beyond that.

"Is there any sports and pool gear on the estate?" I asked one of the houseboys.

He grinned eagerly, nodding.

"Good. Please find the other houseboys and have them join us as well. Let's have some fun!" I grinned.

That turned out to be a good call on Guy's part. We did have fun, and as a result, all of the teens bonded a bit more. I saw quite a few of the guys relaxing and having conversations between themselves. Eventually a soccer game started, the guests against the hosts, Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki siding with the houseboys against Yoshi and the band, Shiro, Neil (he wasn't allowed to use his powers), Sammo, and Sacha. Both sides were even, and I refereed the game. It was a nice way for all of us to relax and enjoy the nice weather. I knew we would have some busy days ahead so this would be one of a few times for us to relax during our two month stay here.

"I think we'll save the weekends for relaxation," Guy said at dinner.

"Good idea," I said.

"I do need to talk to you about going off the estate for one other scene besides the concert scenes," Guy said.

"What's the situation on that?" I asked.

"We need to do a major scene that has Harley wandering around the city a bit. That's where he meets one of the guys and he leads Harley to his apartment building," Guy said, setting it up for me.

I scratched my chin. "When do you anticipate doing this?"

"When I'm able to set it up with the local cops," Guy said. "Shiro is a natural for the four or five scenes needed to do the sequence. He just has to change clothes for each shot that he gets into."

I nodded. "Keep me informed on that."

He stood up. "I will. I am kind of beat, so I will call it a night."

"See you in the morning," I said.

I sat there for a bit longer and sipped my ice cold sake as the moon slowly came up. The houseboy who shared my bed last night approached me.

"Bed?" he asked, a shy grin on his face.

I stood up and smiled. "Sure. Been a long day."

His eyes shone brightly as he took my hand and guided me upstairs. I knew what pleasure was to follow once we got up to my room. This boy could please. Apparently I wasn't the only one enjoying pleasure tonight.

***

In the next room, Neil was working Yasuyuki's cock, making the Japanese boy moan in pleasure.

"So good, you so good," he moaned as Neil sucked his cock.

Neil stripped the boy using his powers. Yasuyuki sighed as he felt himself get ready to cum. He loved having his cock sucked, but he liked fucking ass much better.

"I'm going," he moaned out loud.

Neil swallowed the boy's ball juice and then licked the cock and foreskin clean. Both of them lay down in bed and started to explore each other. Neil thought the extra foreskin just barely covering the head of Yasuyuki's cock allowing just the tip and the piss slit to show was so erotic.

"I think it's a real turn on," he said.

Yasuyuki looked at Neil. "I think you are cute."

Neil blushed as Yasuyuki kissed him. Both boys caressed each other.

"Can I get into you?" Yasuyuki asked Neil.

"Sure," Neil grinned.

He handed Yasuyuki a tube of KY and instructed him how to lube him up and stretch him out for fucking. That particular scene had started when Neil caught Yasuyuki jacking off in the bathroom. Neil had led the boy to the bed and started sucking him off, surprising Yasuyuki. Now the Japanese boy was going to fuck Neil for the first time and he was excited. He lightly coated his cock and slowly pushed himself into Neil. Neil groaned in pleasure as Yasuyuki pushed his six inches [15 cm] deep into Neil and started fucking him. Yasuyuki was behind Neil, fucking his ass fast and hard. Neil moaned and encouraged him to keep going. Yasuyuki was feeling things he'd never felt before and he welcomed the feelings. He felt himself go a second time, this time it was up into Neil's ass.

"I'm going in you," Yasuyuki breathed.

Neil shivered as he felt Yasuyuki cum inside of him. "Feels so good," he moaned.

Both snuggled up together after Yasuyuki had cum.

"I loved that," Yasuyuki said.

"You were great," Neil complemented.

Yasuyuki smiled. "I liked what you did to me. That felt so nice. I never knew making love could be so much fun."

Neil grinned. "I didn't know it either until my Dad taught me."

"Your Dad taught you?" Yasuyuki's eyebrows went up in surprise.

"Yeah, he sure did. I learned a lot, too. I haven't settled down yet with someone like Shiro and Sammo have with each other. I'm hoping to find the right guy someday. In the meantime I intend to enjoy myself a little," Neil said.

"That's cool. I liked how you stripped me with your powers. That was so cool," Yasuyuki grinned.

Neil laughed. "Took me awhile to master that trick."

"Well you did it perfectly. Neil, you can be my roommate for the rest of the time we're here, okay?" Yasuyuki said seriously.

Neil looked at Yasuyuki. "I'd appreciate that."

Both of them snuggled up together and slowly drifted off to sleep.

Down the hall Itsuhiko was riding Sammo's cock with gusto. It turned out he was gay and in the closet. Sammo had been lying on the bed jacking himself off when Itsuhiko walked in from the bathroom and caught Sammo.

"Good. Now we won't have to play games," Itsuhiko said.

He got on the bed and knocked Sammo's hand away from his cock. He took Sammo's cock in hand and started sucking off the big Hawaiian boy. He swung his ass over to Sammo. Sammo pushed his face into the crack and sampled the boy's hole, licking it and sucking it. Itsuhiko moaned.

"I want your cock up my ass," he said.

Sammo grabbed the tube of KY from his bag and jumped back into bed. While Sammo lubed Itsuhiko and got him ready, the boy continued to suck Sammo off. Sammo gently patted Itsuhiko's ass and the horny teen turned around and straddled Sammo and went down on Sammo's cock. Itsuhiko moaned as Sammo's cock went deeper into his ass.

"Feels so good," he moaned.

He started rising and falling on Sammo's cock. Both teens moaned as they felt the passion rise inside of them. Sammo quickly dislodged himself from Itsuhiko's ass and rolled him on his back and then buried his cock back inside the teen's ass. Sammo held Itsuhiko's feet as he shoved his cock in and out of the teen's hot ass.

"Gonna cum," Sammo announced a moment later.

"Fuck me hard!" Itsuhiko cried. "I want your hot cock!"

Sammo gave it to him. Hard. Itsuhiko was going crazy as Sammo shot off inside of him. Sammo pushed his cock as deep as he could make it go as he ejaculated. He sighed as he slowly pulled out. Itsuhiko sighed and relaxed. Sammo lay down in bed next to him and they kissed.

"Thank you. I loved that," Itsuhiko said.

Sammo grinned. "Plenty more later."

Itsuhiko laughed. "Cool! I just hope Shiro doesn't mind me being with you until he gets back from his trip with his Grandfather."

"He doesn't. We discussed it already and he gave me his blessing," Sammo said.

Itsuhiko grinned. "You are so lucky to have a good man like him."

Sammo smiled. "Don't I know it. I thank my lucky stars to have him in my life."

"Then hang on to him as tight as you can," Itsuhiko said. "I hope I get that lucky someday soon."

"You will. You seem to have a lot to offer a potential mate," Sammo said. "Just be a bit patient is all. When the time is right, the right man will come."

"Thanks for the good advice," Itsuhiko said, circling Sammo's right nipple with a fingertip as he snuggled up close.

Sammo wrapped his arms around Itsuhiko and both teens drifted off to sleep.

Sacha and Haruki were comparing cocks.

Sacha looked at Haruki's. "I like the way your foreskin covers your cock completely."

"When I first started to jack off, Dad got me a tube of lubricant to use inside my foreskin so I wouldn't rub myself raw," Haruki said. "Now I produce enough precum to lubricate the inside of the foreskin."

"So are you gay?" Sacha asked.

"No. But I like to play around with another guy. Nothing wrong with that, is there?" Haruki asked.

"No. My Dad says it's perfectly natural for guys to play around. He said it's a part of growing up. I am gay though," Sacha said.

Sacha had been in the bathroom while Haruki was in the bedroom. When Sacha came out, he found Haruki starting to stroke himself off. Haruki had started to come up with an excuse but Sacha had told him it was okay to exercise it. Haruki had laughed at that and things had gone from there. Sacha stretched out on the bed next to Haruki and both had started comparing cocks. They discovered the slight differences in each other's cocks and then that started some mutual masturbation.

"I like how your cock feels in my hand," Haruki said. "I can feel your pulse."

Sacha grinned. "I can feel yours. You know something, I think this is cool. Both of us are from different cultures, I'm Russian and you are Japanese, and yet we have so much in common. I really enjoyed the conversation we had in the yard today. I certainly got to know you quite a bit."

Haruki thought about that for a moment. "You're right. If more people realized that, maybe the world would be a better place."

They fell silent for a bit, casually stroking each other. Haruki started stroking Sacha's cock a bit faster, wanting to get him off. Sacha let go of Haruki's cock and lay back, enjoying the sensations. He shivered and began talking in Russian. He felt his toes curl up and he knew he was about to cum.

"I'm cumming," he said and then he was, his sperm arcing up and over his torso.

Haruki kept on masturbating Sacha until the Russian teen ran dry. Haruki scooped up some of the sperm and licked it off his fingers. Sacha watched his reaction.

"Tastes just like mine," Haruki observed.

Sacha grinned. "Then it's pretty much universal then."

Haruki laughed as Sacha grinned. Sacha then reached for Haruki's cock and started masturbating the Japanese teen. Haruki lay back and sighed as the feelings took over. He closed his eyes and gave himself up to the warm feelings. They were more intense than usual because of Sacha jacking him off. Next thing he knew bolts of pleasure ran through him, setting him off.

"I'm going," he whispered and he shot his load all over his body, Sacha's hand, and arm. He sighed once he came down from the high.

"I like that kind of high," he said as both teens snuggled up together.

"So do I," Sacha grinned. "So do I."

***

The house was a bit quiet the next morning. The boy assigned to me had dressed me after having my cock in his mouth. That boy could suck. I drifted around listening to the muted sounds behind certain doors. Certain couples were busy this morning. I stopped at one door and heard what sounded liked Jeff practicing his scales. I could only guess as to what they were doing. I opened Danny's door in time to see Harley and a Japanese houseboy providing cream for Danny's morning coffee. They were jacking each other off.

"Tickle him under his balls," I whispered to the Japanese boy.

He did just that and Harley shivered before depositing his load into Danny's coffee. Harley returned the favor and the Japanese boy delivered a moment later. Then he stirred the coffee and handed it to Danny. Danny took a sip and approved. I closed the door and left them alone. I headed down the hall and to breakfast.

"Has Onashi-san and Harada-san left?" I asked one of the guards.

"Yes," the man said. "They said they hoped to be back by Friday. They looked very happy together."

"They should be. Grandfather and grandson are together again," I said smiling.

I poured a bit of sake in a glass and handed it to the man. "I salute their finding each other again."

We toasted and then got down to business. Guy was the next to the table as the man and I were discussing where next Monday's shots would be. Actual filming was to start next week. The rest of this week would finish out the rehearsals. A number of sets had been struck on the grounds and a number of the rooms in the house had been changed around for other scenes. The local camera crews were already discussing camera angles and lighting for the scenes to be filmed. Nelson arrived next, talking on the phone trying to set up the show. Everyone eventually drifted in for breakfast.

"I hope everyone is ready for the day," Guy said after getting people's attention. "We got a lot of work to do. Being here on a closed set should keep everything on schedule, the only questionable being the concert and Harley's walkabout scene."

Nelson nodded once he got off the phone. "Two weeks from this Saturday. The local rock stations are starting the media blitz."

Guy nodded. "Perfect. That would work with the shots of Harley on the city streets. All we need to do is secure quarters there for a few days. You guys ready?"

Yoshi yawned. "Oh yeah."

All of us laughed at his comment. The other band members stumbled up to the table and sat down.

"We got half of the soundtrack done last night," Yoshi reported. "We should have the rest done by end of week."

Guy blinked. "Damn, you guys move fast."

"Typical recording process. All of us work up ideas for songs, present them, vote on them, record individual instruments, and then do one big group recording session, and it's done. The fastest we did a CD was three days. We knew exactly what we wanted to do and just went and did it. After seeing the script we knew exactly what we wanted to do. As for the show, we'll do old material and Dustin can blow up the stage like he always does," Yoshi said as Dustin chuckled evilly.

"I better make sure the venue has fire insurance," Nelson said as the band members laughed.

We started the day's rehearsals right after breakfast. Itsuhiko, Haruki, and Yasuyuki proved themselves to be naturals, doing everything the script called for. They did change a few things here and there as the day progressed. Everything was slowly coming together. Security had checked out all the people that were required to be on the set. Nobody was allowed up at the house except for us. Harley was very impressed with the way things were going and so was Guy. By the end of the day they had a fourth of the movie rehearsed and most of the bugs ironed out. Guy was extremely happy and so were the rest of us. The guys were beginning to be more relaxed around each other and that was another worry off my mind.

"So what do you think of Japan so far?" Haruki asked Sacha as they floated in the huge pool.

"It's unique, interesting, a world of it's own and there's so much more than what I've seen already. It sure is different than what I've seen back home in Russia," Sacha said. "I hope we get the chance to go walkabout."

"Would be nice. There's a few places I'd like to show you guys," Haruki said.

"Cool. I'm still getting used to the American way of life. Very different from what I'm used to," Sacha said. "I still am getting used to the idea of going into a store, picking something off the shelf, buying it and leaving the store without any problems. Hell, I'm still getting used to the sight of so many things crammed together on a shelf in a store. So much to see."

"I can't imagine living in a place where you have to stand in a long line just to get a few food items to live on," Haruki remarked. "There are times I count myself lucky to be living here. There are groups here in Japan that are trying to help people in poor countries and in Russia to get the food and medical supplies they need to live."

Sacha smiled. "You have no idea how much they are appreciated. I have seen such trucks delivering needed things to my village and the people who bring them are very welcome there. It makes us glad to see the things brought to us. We know that not everyone is heartless as much as the current government wishes us to believe. Sometimes I think that if the leaders of the world were to witness the sight of poor people getting the help and things they need to live on it would change their thinking."

Haruki sighed. "No kidding. The world would be a safer place to be."

Sammo and Itsuhiko floated past them at that moment, laughing about something.

"That was one of the funniest moments I ever had on that show. I hope I get to go back on there again," Itsuhiko said.

"When is it on?" Sammo asked.

"Tonight, I think. I hope the TV has a translator box on it. I'm sure you guys will love the show," Itsuhiko said.

"Which show is that?" Haruki asked.

Itsuhiko turned to look at Haruki. "The brother and sister variety show."

Haruki laughed out loud. "That one is too wild!"

"Last week's comedy sketch was wild!" Itsuhiko grinned.

"Well, tonight's show should be a good one. I think the band Hiroshima will be on," Haruki said.

Yoshi perked up at that. "Hiroshima? They are awesome!"

"That they are," Yasuyuki said. "I saw them last month with my folks up in Osaka. They were just so good."

Neil surfaced next to the big raft wearing a mask and snorkel.

"They sure know how to put on a show," Haruki said.

"Who does?" Neil asked.

"Japanese band called Hiroshima," Sammo told him.

"I read something on them in one of the English magazines this morning. Something about a tour to the USA in the summer," Neil said.

"I saw a few of their CD's in the TV/audio room last night when I was checking out the room," Sacha said.

"Let's check them out later tonight before the show comes on," Itsuhiko suggested as he shifted his position on the raft.

"Cool," Neil nodded.

Sammo stretched and you could hear his muscles pop. "I love this. Beautiful warm weather, good friends to hang out with, and mischief to plan. Life can't get any better than this."

All of the boys laughed at that.

"All those in agreement, say aye," Itsuhiko grinned as they chorused aye.

I dived into the water at that moment and swam up to the raft. "What evil are you guys planning?" I asked, seeing the silly grins on their faces.

"Well, there's the communal streak planned for the big scene Monday morning," Sammo chortled as the guys laughed.

I sighed. There are times when I wish I could be careful with what I say. I tend to give these guys too many kooky ideas every time I say anything. The Saran wrap over the toilet this morning had been bad enough, but the whoopee cushions at breakfast two mornings ago was the big stunt. The security guys rolled on the floor at the sight of my expression as Danny, Hejiro, Takaneda, and I sat down for breakfast.

"I don't think so," I said as the guys laughed once again.

"I'm sure Guy would like it," Haruki said, keeping the gag going.

"Like what?" Guy said, walking past the pool to the pond.

I told him and he sighed. "Teenagers."

I echoed the feeling.

***

Later that evening I decided to go up to bed. "Don't destroy the house."

Sammo looked up at me as I stood in the doorway of the TV room. "We promise Dad."

I turned to see the houseboy assigned to me standing there looking at me with a smile on his face. I extended my hand to him and he led me to my room and closed the door behind us. Sammo closed the door to the TV room.

"Lock it, man. Don't want anybody bothering us," Itsuhiko urged him.

Sammo locked the door and then turned around. "What do you have in mind?"

Itsuhiko grinned as he got up and slid one of the shoji screens aside. The TV room was on the second floor of the house so nobody could look in through the open shoji screen. Actually it was a smaller one. The one on the ground floor was more of a small theatre. Itsuhiko put on a disco CD and began doing a sexy strip tease to it as the other teens cheered him on. Once he was done, the next person went and so on until all the guys were naked. They reclined on thick pillows on the floor.

"Ah, much better. There are times a guy just has to relax and let it all hang out," he said as he gently stroked himself, not really trying to get off.

"I know what you mean," Sammo said. "We go naked around our pool a lot back home on Logan's Mountain."

Neil passed around sodas with Sacha's help. "Definitely much more relaxing."

The guys settled back on the cushions as Itsuhiko slipped a CD into the player.

"How about a bit of Hiroshima before the TV show comes on?" he suggested.

There was a chorus of agreements and Itsuhiko started the music. They relaxed and listened to the music, enjoying the rhythms and melodies. Yoshi and Jeff snuggled up together as the music relaxed them. The CD ended when the show came on and the guys settled down to watch it. There was a bit of general banter about the guests on the show. Itsuhiko had figured out how to turn on the translator box and everyone could understand what was being said. Even Harley roared at the jokes aimed at him and the guys loved the jokes about the movie that was being shot. Neil and Yasuyuki were cuddled up together on a big beanbag, their hands on each other's cock, gently stroking each other and enjoying the feelings. Once the show was over, they pulled on just the shorts and went to their room, holding hands. They were becoming fast friends and casual lovers. They slipped under the sheet and kissed each other good night and then cuddled up together. The other boys went to their assigned rooms except for Sammo and Itsuhiko. They closed and locked the door once more, turned down the volume on the TV and watched the midnight creature feature with Godzilla kicking some alien's ass.

Harley slipped into bed, trying not to wake Danny. Danny rolled over and took the naked teen into his arms, nuzzled his neck a little, and then kissed him passionately. Harley snuggled down into the man's arms and went to sleep.

Sacha and Haruki got into the shower together and spent time washing each other clean. They enjoyed touching and exploring each other. They slipped into bed together and kissed each other good night and snuggled up together. Haruki drifted off to sleep and Sacha watched him sleep for a bit. Then he went to sleep.

I woke up to find my boy kneeling next to the bed with my morning coffee. I smiled as I took the cup from him and took a sip. It was perfect and he knew I liked it from the smile he saw on my face. He helped me stretch and dressed me in shorts and a t-shirt before reaching for a strip of cloth nearby. I helped him tie his mawashi on before he put his kimono on. He looked so sexy in the mawashi, I couldn't help but get a hard on every time I saw him in it. He just smiled and glided off to the kitchen to assist the cook in making breakfast. The house was quiet and I had a quick look around before heading down to start my morning routine. One of the officers nodded as I walked past him, heading out for the pond. One turn around the pond equaled a mile [1.6 km], so I did four turns around the pond for my four miles [6½ km]. Another guard was waiting for me in the weightlifting room when I walked in. I started my lifting routine and he spotted me when I needed it. My boy brought me a cup of steaming tea and a container of orange juice and retreated. He was so intrigued by my big muscles and loved to explore them every night in bed and especially loved to feel my long thick hard muscle slip up into his ass as much as I loved to slip it up inside him. What he could do with his ass was exciting. He must have been catamite trained before coming here to the estate. The man who owned this place was one lucky man.

I sat down at the outdoor dining table before anybody arrived and enjoyed a relaxing breakfast while pursuing the Tokyo Times. I looked up to see the teens charging the table. Since I was sitting at the head I felt safe. I didn't pay much attention to the chatter that went on. My thoughts were with Shiro and Hejiro. I was hoping they were okay. They were due back today, it now being Friday. They had left Wednesday morning and I had hoped their mission would succeed. I also hoped it would give them plenty of time together. They needed to spend time to get to know each other again. I wasn't worried about Shiro's safety. I knew he could handle himself without any problems. I looked up to see Sammo sitting there, gazing off into the distance. I knew he was thinking of Shiro. It touched my heart to see them together, so much in love with each other. I know their lives have gotten much better since finding each other.

Guy sat down next to me when he showed up. "There you are. We've got about 85% of the movie rehearsed. We can afford to take some time off starting today. The actual filming starts this Monday morning. The only things planned for the following week is Harley's walkabout scenes and the concert. Harley's walkabout has gotten moved to Wednesday instead of Tuesday. A local unit of the JSSDF (Japan Strategic Self Defense Force, what they call the armed forces there) has volunteered to assist us. The only day they can help is Wednesday. I said perfect so it's arranged."

I nodded. "Those folks don't fool around. They certainly know their jobs well."

"You seem to know, you're the military expert," Guy said.

I grinned. "No worries mate."

Oh, famous last words! Everything had gone so well up to this point and I saw no potential threat on the horizon. Well, life and Mr. Murphy does have rude way of kicking you in the nuts when you least expect it. I keep learning that over and over again, and the lesson still doesn't sink in. Oh doom on me.

Next episode: We learn where Shiro and his Grandfather have gone. Filming gets started. Harley goes walkabout with an unexpected surprise. The concert and Aaron Cutler popping up. The wrap up party. Stay tuned for fun and excitement!

Hejiro and Shiro drove back to the little airfield and flew the small Lear up to Nagasaki. In the air Hejiro explained what he wanted to do.

"I want to find my old Executive Officer and find out if he wants the company. I've always liked him, he definitely had a head for the business," Hejiro said.

"I barely remember him," Shiro said. "I always thought he was cool."

Hejiro smiled. "I hope we can find him."

"I could call Tanaka-san for help," Shiro said.

"Not yet. Let's look in some places first before calling him," Hejiro said.

Shiro nodded and put his cell away. He sighed as he looked out the window of the Lear.

"I'm still recovering from the shock of seeing you alive. Mom and Dad told me they found very little of the plane left. After they died, I thought I was completely alone. Having you back in my life makes me feel complete," Shiro said.

Hejiro smiled and rested his hand on Shiro's shoulder. "I am glad to hear that. I'm happy to have found you again. I hoped and prayed I'd find you."

"Nothing can stop us now," Shiro smiled.

Hejiro smiled. "Right."

The seat belt sign pinged at that moment so they buckled up for landing. A car was waiting for them when they came off the jet. One of the men stepped forward.

Onashi-san? One man asked as he bowed.

Yes, that is me, Hejiro answered.

Kazuya-san has sent us to meet you, the man said. He heard of your return to Japan and eagerly waits for you.

Hejiro grinned. He is a good man.

The man smiled. He is indeed.

Hejiro and Shiro got in the car as their luggage was loaded into the trunk of the car. The driver got behind the wheel as the assistant got in on the passenger side. They drove into the city, following one of the main highways. The assistant turned to them.

We are heading to Kazuya-san's estate. He wishes you to be his guests for a few days. He knows why you have come seeking him and wishes to help you anyway he can, the assistant said.

Hejiro smiled. Very good. He is very perceptive.

They arrived at the house and were escorted in. They were shown to their rooms and they settled in. A lady arrived to escort them to see Kazuya. Shiro as per his habit looked around the room and made notes of possible escape routes and what could be used as weapons in case Hejiro asked him about the room. A tall slim Japanese man turned when they walked up to him.

Onashi-san, it is… so good to see you, he said, unable to control his emotions.

Hejiro smiled and gently squeezed the younger man's shoulder. You look well.

Kazuya brought his emotions under control and bowed. I am honored to have you here as my guests. Thank you for coming.

Hejiro and Shiro returned the bow. We are honored to be your guests in your home. Thank you for inviting us.

Kazuya waved to a couch with a small table in front of it. Shiro noted the knives on the silver tray among the tea and snacks as he sat down. Kazuya served up the tea and they chatted about this and that before he got down to the heart of the matter.

How can I be of service to you? He asked.

Hejiro put down his cup and looked serious. Now that Mukku-san has been removed from his former position, the company is left in tatters. I have been able to retake the company with no problems. However, there is not much left of it. As I recall, you had the ability to take a sinking company and turn it around. I have decided to fully retire. I wish to spend the rest of my days with my Grandson in America. The Emperor has kindly given Shiro his Japanese citizenship back, and the Americans have offered me an American citizenship. Therefore, I am here to offer you the opportunity to buy the company from me.

Kazuya looked up at Onashi. I accept your very generous invitation. I will give you a fair price for majority control. That will leave you with a percentage of the company and you will receive your share of the profits every month so you shall have the means to enjoy your new life in America.

You are most kind. It is unnecessary, Hejiro said.

Please allow me to do this. You took me in under your wing when I was a young man just out of school and taught me so very much, taught me things I never learned in business school. I owe you a debt of Honor. Please allow me to repay it, Kazuya bowed to Hejiro.

Then I shall accept your very generous offer, old friend, Hejiro said, returning the bow. There is much to discuss over the next few days.

Of course. There shall be plenty of time to discuss matters. But not tonight. Tonight we shall talk of more pleasant things, Kazuya said.

Hejiro just smiled.

***

Back at the ranch as they say, things were going very well. It was Friday morning and the rehearsals were done. Guy declared a three-day weekend before actual filming was to start on Monday. Harley was in a very good mood, as well as the other principal actors. In fact, we were ahead of schedule, which made Guy even happier. Powersound had finished the soundtrack and was in the process of polishing it up and working on the material for the upcoming show. The publicity was working nonstop and by the time Friday afternoon rolled around, the show was completely sold out. The local rock station even ran a contest to coincide with the filming. The winner would meet the band, spend the day on the movie set, and be an extra in a scene.

Now it was Friday and Hejiro and Shiro were due back. I sincerely prayed everything had gone well for them. When they arrived early evening both Shiro and Hejiro both had smiles on their faces as they climbed out of the limo.

"Hi Dad!" Shiro called out as I walked down the front steps.

I walked up to them as the houseboys carried their luggage into the house.

"How did the trip go?" I asked.

Hejiro smiled. "Perfectly. I found Kazuya-san, or rather, he found me."

"Oh?" I asked as we walked inside.

"Apparently Tanaka-san called him and told him we were coming," Hejiro said. "He met us at the airport."

I led the way to the sitting room and we sat down on the couches. A boy brought us drinks, a pot of tea for Hejiro and Shiro, and cold sake for me and then withdrew.

"He bought the company from me on the conditions that I would keep a number of shares and a monthly retirement benefit check. I am also a consultant to him should the need arise, and I will have unlimited access to the company's holdings, whichever ones that are left," Hejiro said.

"I've got a listing of those, Grandpa. I'll read it tonight and check them out on the net as well," Shiro said.

Hejiro sighed. "So much advances. I feel like the fabled Rip Van Winkle."

I grinned. "With Shiro advising you, you'll get the hang of everything sooner rather than later."

We shared a laugh over that. We fell silent as we sipped our drinks. I sat my drink down and looked at Hejiro.

"Like I said to you earlier, you are more than welcome to join Samurai Inc. I was being very serious about that," I said.

Hejiro nodded. "I have been meaning to talk to you about that."

"What's on your mind?" I asked.

"As you know I've already accepted your invitation to join. I am not as nimble as I used to be, so if you don't mind I will play a support role. I can and will teach Neil and Sacha ninja skills. They will benefit greatly from the training. If what I have seen here is any indication of what goes on at your house then I can safely assume that life with all of you will never be dull," he said.

I nodded. "You are uncomfortable with it?"

"Some of it," Hejiro admitted.

"No problem. I can restrict the nudity to just the pool area and everything else in the bedrooms and the playroom," I said.

Hejiro nodded. "I do appreciate that. Shiro and I had a very long talk about things and he informed me about life at Logan's Mountain and what goes on there. It is your place and I respect that fact. I have no problem with the boys playing around with each other, what horny boy doesn't? I'm just not comfortable with seeing everyone naked all the time. I apologize for that."

I waved it off. "No need to apologize. I should have realized long ago that not everybody is comfortable with that. So there will be restrictions on where and when."

"I appreciate that," Hejiro smiled.

I smiled. "Done and done. Now to get you two up to speed, everything has gone very well. Filming will start Monday morning. Shiro will be needed for the segment that Harley is to go walkabout on the streets in a scene for the movie. We've planned and mapped out a route for that one. The JSSDF had volunteered to assist. Shiro will stick close to Harley and will have to change clothes at least six different times. Yoshi and company finished the soundtrack and they are rehearsing for the Saturday concert. We have been to the venue and it is a great setup.

"Harley can do his run with no problems. We've mapped it out and ran the route at least four times so Harley and the chaser will know which way to go when it's time. Powersound will be making their first concert film here as well. Strike while the iron is hot and all that. Nelson thinks the concert film will sell very hot, especially with the added footage of Harley running through the place and various behind the scenes shots. The show goes down Saturday night, and the response from the local police and the venue security had been excellent. They tell me we have nothing to worry about. They say rock fans here in Japan may get a little crazy, but they are a very respectful group of people."

Hejiro smiled. "Back in my younger days after the war, many American rock groups of the day would come here to Japan. I remember seeing Elvis, the Beatles, Roy Orbitson, and others through the years. I may be old, but I still love to rock!"

I roared with laughter as Hejiro grinned and Shiro blinked.

"You do, Grandpa?" Shiro asked.

"Yes I do," Hejiro smiled. "You should have seen my record collection. Even had some rare Led Zeppelin."

"Is it still intact?" Shiro asked.

"I don't know. Kazuya-san had managed to get a bunch of my stuff boxed up and stored away before Mukku sold off everything else I had. He will have whatever crates he packed sent to your place. Is there someone at Logan's Mountain to receive it?" Hejiro asked me.

I whipped out my cell and punched in Mug's number and waited for him to answer.

"Ya, what you want?" came the familiar growl.

I had to smile. "Quit playing with your baton, old man."

"Which one, the eight inch [20 cm] one or the twelve inch [30 cm] one?" he asked.

I chuckled. "Both of them."

Mugs roared with laughter. "You dirty young pup!"

"That I am, sir. That I am," I said. "Listen, I need a favor from you. I'm in Japan and I am sending some crates of stuff your way. Can you receive them and store them for me?" I asked.

"Will do boy," he said. "Keep your pecker up."

I hung up and reached for a piece of paper. "Here's the address to send it to."

Shiro took the paper from me and headed for the phone to make the call. Hejiro smiled.

"Thank you very much. I appreciate this," he said.

"No problem, just make sure your friend labels the ninja items I'm sure he'll slip into the crates as art items or conceal them inside things. If he doesn't do that, there is a forge on the grounds that Shiro and I rebuilt and use to create edged weapons and ammo. He tells me you have made your own stuff," I said.

"Much better to make your own. That way if they fail, it's your own damn fault," Hejiro said.

He wasn't kidding on that. I've had issue gear fail on me, so I really go over the gear to make sure they are up to the job. I've bought my weapons from an armory in Colorado and the weapons master there was a real fanatic about keeping them properly like I am.

Shiro returned a moment later. "All set. He'll get everything shipped out by Monday morning."

"Good. That takes care of all that. Now all we have left to worry about is the start of filming, Harley's walkabout in the city that's going down on Wednesday the following week, the concert, and final filming on the Monday after the concert, and then some much needed time off for walkabout," I said. "Would you and Shiro be willing to escort us around?"

"Sure. Be fun to see Japan again," Hejiro smiled.

"Then it's a done deal," I said.

***

We had fun that weekend. The jokes, one-liners, and pranks flew faster than racing pigeons. For a while it was a contest between Shiro, Sammo, Harley, and Itsuhiko as to who could come up with the best prank. The rest of us became the victims. It was all in good fun and nobody got hurt. There was enough sporting gear on the estate to keep the active teens busy and occupied. It was nice to see them act like kids again, especially Sacha. He'd really never had much interaction with others his age and he sure looked like he was really enjoying himself. As for us adults, we relaxed doing our own thing. I spent time in the weight room working out, soaking in the Jacuzzi, plotting revenge against the boys, chasing my houseboy, and drinking sake. This was one of the few times I enjoyed myself while relaxing.

Saturday night Danny, Hejiro, Takaneda, Guy, and myself sat around playing poker and drinking till early in the morning. Hejiro could run a mean bluff with his poker face. He bluffed me out of two huge pots with weak cards while I held good hands both times. He'd grin each time he collected the pots.

"Shiro's not the only card shark," I grumbled to Danny.

Hejiro laughed. "So he's taken you guys to the cleaners a few times?"

"I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I may incriminate myself," I said to Hejiro's amusement.

"Last time Shiro took Logan's silk boxers," Danny grinned.

I smacked Danny on the back of the head as the men laughed.

"I would have liked to seen that," Takaneda grinned.

I gave him the glare of death to which he merely laughed. "You funny man."

"So is everything ready to go this Monday?" Danny asked.

Guy looked up. "Yes. Raise fifty yen. Taking a page from Logan's book, I've planned everything right down to the last detail, even factored in Mr. Murphy, and he damned well better not show his ugly ass."

"I get the feeling every thing will work out fine," Takaneda said.

"I hope so. I'm keeping my fingers, toes, and nuts crossed," I said.

Hejiro raised his eyebrows. "That has to hurt."

"Only if shit truly happens. Mr. Murphy can't resist yanking them sometimes," I groaned, thinking of past screw-ups.

Danny smiled. "Then we'll make sure he doesn't show up."

"Easier said than done," I said.

Danny just chuckled. That can be a scary sound, especially if Danny is up to something.

Sunday was very subdued. All of us just pretty much took it easy. We knew work would start the next morning. Harley was quiet and seemed to withdraw into himself. I knew from past experience he was mentally preparing himself for the shoot starting the next morning. We knew that once the shooting schedule got started there wouldn't be much of a chance to really breathe. Even the houseboys seemed to know it. Mine approached me Sunday evening. Apparently he had been chosen to the spokesperson for the other houseboys.

"Logan-san, may I speak with you?" he asked timidly.

I wrapped my arm around him. "Yes. You don't have to be shy with me at all. If there is a problem, please tell me."

"All of us houseboys know that the filming is to start in the morning. We have set up some massage tables in the main bath area to help the actors and crew should they desire relief at the end of the day. We wish to help in any way we can. All you need to do is to tell me what you need and it shall be done," he said.

I hugged him tight. "Thank you for your offer and wanting to help us. I'll relay the offer quietly around and let people know to be discrete."

He smiled at me. "How about I give you a preview of the service?"

I grinned. "Of course."

I certainly enjoyed the preview of the service he and the other houseboys were offering.

The mood at breakfast was very subdued. Not much was said and Harley seemed even more distant. Danny sat down next to me.

"He didn't sleep very well last night," he said.

I looked up, putting my cup of coffee down. "Nerves most likely. Once he gets the first shot in the can, he'll relax and start being himself."

"I hope so," Danny nodded.

Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki were the same way. The four principle actors picked at their breakfast, not saying much. I decided to give them a pep talk, but Harley's next action beat me to it. He looked at the other guys and held out a fist. Haruki put his on top of Harley's, followed by Itsuhiko and Yasuyuki. Harley raised their fists one time.

"For luck," he said and the three boys nodded.

The four of them walked out onto the lawn and took their marks for the first scene in the garden set. Guy looked around and each member of the film crew nodded.

"Let's make it happen," he said and sat in the director's chair. "Quiet on the set, cameras start rolling and action!"

The filming was under way. True to my prediction, once the first scene was in the can, the crew and watchers applauded and Harley relaxed considerably. As the day went on, Harley got more and more relaxed and he really started to shine. The three Japanese teen actors took their cue from Harley and relaxed a bit and their acting really took off. I had the feeling we would finish well ahead of schedule. As my Seal instructor once said, "Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance, and don't ya forget it, ya idiots."

His words ring clear in my head from time to time and I never forgot it. Danny caught my eye and nodded to me, a grin on his face. Harley was hitting his stride now that he got past his nerves and had gotten his second wind. Harley began to smile more as each scene was dropped in the can. Guy was practically dancing in joy, and Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki were grinning. Everything was coming together perfectly.

***

In Danny and Harley's room that night, Harley lay down in bed, feeling good from the massage he had gotten. Danny lay down next to him.

"Let me give you pleasure tonight," he said.

Harley nodded. Danny gently began to caress Harley's torso, making the teen groan with pleasure. He gently brushed his thumbs over Harley's nipples, making them get erect. Harley closed his eyes and sighed. Danny kissed the boy's face and then his neck, making Harley whimper and writhe underneath Danny. Danny took his time in kissing and licking Harley's torso, stopping long enough at the teen's erect nipples and pleasuring them. Harley shivered some more and ran his fingers through Danny's short hair. Danny kissed the teen's stomach, licking out the belly button and making Harley cry out in passion. His teenage erection was poking Danny's chest as it grew hard and erect. Danny took hold of it and moved it out of the way and then continued to pleasure Harley's torso.

Harley by now had gone to another world, a world filled with physical pleasure to be enjoyed and savored. Danny licked his navel out once more and then moved down to the base of Harley's hard teen cock. Danny moved his tongue around the base of the erection and then down to the bit of skin between cock and balls. Harley spread his legs as wide as he could and moaned as Danny's tongue licked him there. Harley raised his legs and hooked his feet into the soft rings at the top of the bed, exposing his ass for Danny to pleasure. Danny blew gently on Harley's opening and then teased it with a finger. Harley shivered in anticipation of pleasure to come. Danny leaned forward and started licking and sucking on Harley's anal opening. Harley cried out.

"Oh Danny, that feels so good! Lick it, suck it, make me feel good!" Harley whined as he shook his butt in Danny's face.

Danny took hold of Harley's shapely ass and started pleasuring Harley's love canal. He gently slipped his tongue inside Harley's ass and licked him out good. Then Harley let his legs down and he pushed Danny on his back.

"I'm gonna slip it in you, ride your ass good," Harley whispered as he coated his cock with KY.

Danny lifted his legs and let Harley in. Danny sighed as he felt the teenage cock sink into him. Danny loved to be fucked by a hot horny teenager, and Harley was no exception to that. Harley got his six inches [15 cm] inside of Danny and then started riding the man's ass.

"You hot young stud," Danny hissed, "Do me, fuck me, make me feel your cock inside me, wanna feel you cum inside me!"

It didn't take Harley long. He threw his head back and cried out as he shot his teenage load into Danny. Danny squeezed his cock as hard as he could with his anal muscle, milking Harley's cock for his young juice. Harley sighed and collapsed on Danny once he finished ejaculating. Danny held Harley's sweating body in his arms as the teen relaxed from an intense orgasm. Harley kissed Danny and slowly went to sleep as Danny wiped him off with a towel.

"Good night sweet prince," Danny whispered into Harley's ear.

Harley muttered something and snuggled down into Danny's arms.

I know Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki got the treatment last night from the huge smiles I saw at the table the next morning. Even Guy was in a sunny mood. I was starting to wonder about him and decided to start watching him a lot more carefully. He was dropping little clues and it seemed that I was the only one to pick up on them. I kept my suspicions to myself, deciding that it wasn't any of my business. I looked at the planned shoot sheet for the day and noted there would be a few more outdoor scenes to do. The set crew had already moved the appropriate sets into place. I took up position and watched as Harley, Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki went to work. I grinned as they did each scene perfectly. They were doing their jobs very efficiently and Guy was in high spirits. Every thing was going perfectly. Too perfectly. I had the feeling that something would happen real soon but didn't know what it was. I kept alert hoping my feeling was wrong.

I discussed my impending sense of doom with Danny, Guy, Hejiro, and Shiro that night.

"I hope it's nothing," Danny said.

"Same here. I just want everyone to be a little more alert than usual. Don't go out of the way and be obvious about it, just watch things a little more closely. I hope I'm not getting paranoid," I said.

"The planned shoot for Wednesday next week is definitely set. The JSSDF unit has scoped out the city blocks we need to use for the planned shoot and according to them the shops in that area are willing to participate and assist if necessary. The only thing they have requested is a signed autograph of Harley for their shop walls. So Harley will pose with the shop owners as we go between takes. We can get them developed before Saturday and Harley wants to hand deliver them Saturday morning before being sequestered at the concert venue. There have been requests for interviews with him and Powersound, so what we could do is set up some chairs on the stage and do the interviews, followed by a press conference," Guy said.

"I don't see any problems with that," I said.

"Good. I'll talk to Nelson and get his agreement," Guy said.

That ended the meeting and everyone went to bed.

***

The rest of the week went by with no problems. I was keeping every thing crossed and my nuts were beginning to hurt. So I started to relax a bit. Things were going smoothly and I was starting to wonder if I was worrying for nothing.

"Relax, boss. We cool," Danny said and we were.

It was coming up on Friday now and nearly 85% of the movie was now in the can. There was one big scene left to shoot and that was Harley, Haruki, Itsuhiko, and Yasuyuki going naked for a swimming sequence at the pond. The second nude scene would be at the ocean, and the third nude scene would be in the bathhouse. Harley took the opportunity to pull a prank on us. He discovered in the back of the wardrobe trailer a girl's frilly long legged swimsuit dating back to the late twenties when it was fashionable for girls and women to wear such things. Harley swiped it with a huge grin on his face. He smuggled it into the small tent set up on the grass by the pond and got into it. He waited until Guy started yelling for Harley. The three guys stood in just their shorts waiting for Harley to come out of the tent. Oh, he came out all right. He stepped out very daintily, waving a lace hanky at us.

"Yoo-hoo, I'm ready boys," he said in a girl's voice.

Guy was the first to break. He fell out of his chair, howling with laughter as Harley sashayed to the water. A moment later the rest of us followed, rolling on the grass. Even Hejiro was amused. I still have the video to prove it.

It was the icebreaker, so to speak. Everyone relaxed a bit while Harley went back to the tent and pulled it off. He reappeared a moment later in all his glory. Haruki followed a moment later with Yasuyuki and Itsuhiko shedding their shorts a moment later. The first nude scene was filmed perfectly on the first take. The bathhouse scene was next. The Oceanside one was scheduled for Thursday next week, the day after Harley's walkabout in town. Guy announced the filming was done for the week and all cameramen were to report on Wednesday morning at the hotel conference room for a meeting. The film crews began to disassemble things and pack it all away except for one camera setup just in case some stuff needed to be reshot. Guy would be spending his weekend at a film studio doing editing all the way up to Wednesday morning. We were on our own till then. That made everybody happy.

For the next few days we all relaxed and enjoyed each other's company. Oh sure there was plenty of horseplay and good natured pranking and all of us got a good laugh from them, but Harley's prank topped them all. Yoshi and the band had gotten their rehearsals done and the play list set to go. It was nice to relax in the sun and enjoy the peace and quiet. With all these cute boys around me I was having a hard time deciding who was the cutest. Danny snickered at my frustration.

"Decisions, decisions," he laughed. "I know who I like."

I smirked. "Yeah, we all know who that is."

Harley blushed as I said that. Sacha rose to the challenge.

"I thought it was me," he said.

The other guys laughed.

"You flatter yourself too much," Yasuyuki said as he struck a muscular pose.

"With that tiny thing down there?" Itsuhiko cracked.

Yasuyuki dropped his Speedos and stroked it. "At least I can have fun with it."

Shiro, Neil, Sacha, and Yoshi laughed out loud. Jeff grinned.

"My favorite toy!" he declared. "But mine belongs to Yoshi."

"The curse of married life," Connor cracked.

There was more laughter at that. Harley smiled at that.

"I'm sure it's nice knowing you're coming home to someone who loves you very much," he said.

Yoshi and Jeff nodded. "You bet it is."

I caught glanced between Dustin and Nico. They stood up and cleared their throats.

"I guess this is a good time as any," Nico said.

"We are getting married," Dustin said.

We all stood and applauded them. Haruki, Yasuyuki, and Itsuhiko blinked in surprise.

"Boys can get married in the USA?" Yasuyuki asked.

"Only in Arkansas," Jeff said. "The teen gay community owes Yoshi and Jeff thanks for that."

"That's so cool," Itsuhiko said.

Then I remembered something I had been meaning to ask Yoshi. "Hey, tell me about the couple named Wayne and Dan."

Yoshi grinned. "First man/boy wedding in Peckertown."

He went into detail about it all. I knew I had to meet them and shake their hands. It had to take huge amounts of courage to do that. The gay community sure has advanced some since the Stonewall days.

***

Tuesday night came around. The chartered bus arrived and the luggage packed for the trip down south to Nagoya for the two sequences yet to be filmed and the concert. Battle plans had been made and backups set up in case the main plan went down. I wasn't anticipating any problems, but you never know. Things do happen.

The bus ride down to Nagoya took about two hours and everyone kept occupied with various walkmans and the card game in the back. Hejiro sat that one out, and Sammo cleaned up this time around. I laughed at the various expressions and turned back to the city map that had Harley's route marked on it. A total of six cameras would be used. The plan was to get it down on one shot and hope it would be good enough. I looked up as the bus pulled into the hotel parking area. Guy was standing at the entrance as I hopped off. The police were holding a line of fans at bay and I got back on the bus.

"Drooling girl alert!" I called out.

Harley, Haruki, Yasuyuki, and Itsuhiko groaned. Yoshi, Jeff, Travis, Connor, and Brian nodded at me and got ready to run the gauntlet of fans. I observed lots of signs and 98% were in favor of the actors and the band. There were a few dissenting voices and they were quickly drowned out and pushed to the back of the crowd by angry fans.

"Ready," Harley said.

I nodded. "Let's do it."

I led the teen actors off the bus first. Danny led the band off and the team covered their assigned celebrities as the fans reacted. Cries of "Harley, we love you!" and cheering on Powersound greeted them as the cameras filmed us greeting the fans with handshakes and high fives. We got into the hotel with no problems.

We were already checked in and took the private elevator to the suites that took the entire top floor of the luxury hotel. I sat in the recliner with my usual glass of Sake and watched the sun go down behind the distant mountains. The sight was beautiful and relaxing. I reached out for my glass and found a fresh one sitting on the cocktail napkin and a smiling Haruki standing there.

"Looked a little empty," he said. "Never saw anyone drink it cold before."

"I kinda like it that way," I said.

Haruki grinned. "That's cool."

He sat down on the arm of the chair with me and watched the last of the daylight fade away and nightfall over the city as the lights came on. I rubbed his back for a moment. Haruki sighed and it sounded like he was enjoying it.

"Would you like some company tonight?" he asked at last.

I thought for a moment. "Sure. Anything you want to do is fine by me."

He smiled and I had the feeling I had eased his mind about something.

"Good," he said. "I want to pillow with you."

I took his hand and looked at him. "Are you sure you want that?"

He nodded. "Yes I do. Please?"

"Okay. But you set the pace, you tell me how to pleasure you," I said.

He grinned once more. "Okay."

Haruki slid onto my lap and I held him for a bit. His boy body felt good and I nibbled on his ear for a moment. Haruki sighed in pleasure and I loved hearing it. It sounded like a beautiful musical note. I glanced at my watch and it said eight thirty. I had a sudden idea.

"Let's go have a bath," I said.

Haruki slid off my lap and followed me to the master bedroom. I closed the door behind us and turned to him. He was starting to unbutton his shirt.

"Let me do that," I said.

I sat on the bed in front of him and drew him close to me. I slowly unbuttoned his shirt and let it fall to the floor once I pulled it off him. He was a beautiful kid. His skin had a slight tanned color to it. His torso was starting to develop muscle on it and by the size of his shoulders I had the feeling he would be a good-sized man by the time he finished growing up. I ran my fingertips over his torso and he sighed, his body shivering a little. I opened his belt and unsnapped his jeans, tugging them down his hips and down his smooth legs. I smiled when I saw the blue thong underwear.

"Do you like them?" he asked shyly.

I smiled. "Yes. They look sexy on you."

He held onto my shoulders as I took his socks off and then drew his blue thong down his legs and off him. Haruki was completely naked now. He smiled as he started undressing me. He pulled my shirt off me first and he looked with wonder at my hairy torso and he ran his fingers through the thick chest hair.

"Feels so nice," he said.

I smiled at him and then leaned forward and kissed him. "Thank you."

I stood up so he could get my pants off. He laughed at the sight of my boxers, which had a cartoon Seal holding an MP-5 at the ready in one hand and a grenade in the other. He hooked his fingers inside the waistband and pulled then down. Now I was naked. He blinked at the sight of my ten inches [25 cm] starting to get hard. I smiled.

"I think he's happy to see you," I joked.

Haruki laughed and that seemed to relax him. I took his hand and led him into the bathroom and sat him on the bench. I ran hot water into the traditional wood bucket and then ladled the water over his head until he was wet. I took up a washcloth and gently soaped up his body after washing his hair. Haruki closed his eyes and sighed as I touched him in a gentle loving manner. I was enjoying this just as much as he was enjoying the bath. His cock rose to the occasion as I got down to his genitals. I took his six inches [15 cm] in hand and gently pulled his foreskin back and carefully washed his exposed penis. He leaned back and shuddered at the feelings that washed over him. He came in my hand as I gently stroked his cock clean. He shifted onto his side and drew his legs up. I gently soaped up his anal entry, cleaning that very important part of him. He shuddered once more as my finger slipped up into him and pressed his prostate. I felt his cock jerk once more, shooting another load of his teen cream into my hand. He sighed as he came down once more from his high. I picked up the bucket and rinsed him clean. Haruki stood up and I sat down on the bench. He leaned forward and kissed me.

Haruki took the bucket from me and filled it up with hot water and then filled the tub with steaming hot water. He returned to me, dipping the ladle in to the bucket and then pouring the water over me until I was wet. He washed my hair first and I loved the feel of his fingers through my hair. Then he picked up a washcloth and began washing my body clean. He soaped my chest and then each arm, starting with my fingers and working up to my armpits. He then worked his way down to my genitals and then stepped around me to wash my back. I stood up and placed one foot on the bench at his urging. He took my ten inches [25 cm] in his smooth, soap-slicked hand and gently washed it clean. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the sensations of his hands washing my balls clean. I felt a finger enter me and wash my hole clean. I sighed as I sat down on the bench as he picked up each foot and washed them, getting between the toes. Haruki went back to the faucets and filled the bucket once more and then started rinsing me off. Once that was done, he quickly wiped things down as I stood up. I looked into his soft brown eyes and then picked him up and carried him to the steaming tub. I got in and then sat down, putting him on my lap. We sat there for a bit, rubbing the hot water over each other until it started to cool. I lifted him up and stood him on his feet and reached for a thick towel and dried him off completely. Haruki returned the favor. Bath time was over.

I carried him back into the bedroom and laid him on the bed and then turned off the lights. The only light in the room now was the light of the full moon. It fell across Haruki's body, making him look so sexy to me. I slipped in to bed next to him and began touching him. He responded in the way I hoped he would. I kissed, touched, licked, caressed, and sucked every inch of his delightful body. Haruki returned the pleasure the best he could. He offered up his six-inch [15 cm] penis for me to pleasure, I took it in my mouth and gently sucked him off. I took my time in pleasuring the teen's cock. I licked it, teased it, and sucked on it. He pushed on the top of my head, urging me to take his balls into my mouth. He lay on his back and spread his legs. I sniffed at the teen balls before licking at sucking them. Haruki wasn't a very vocal lover, he would moan when the pleasure got a bit too much. But he did move around a bit, his body twitching and shivering from uncontrollable desire for my lovemaking on his body. I gently sucked his balls into my mouth and pleasured them. His smooth hairless balls tasted of the soap I had used on his body in the bath. I could smell a bit of his musky body smell from his anal opening as I started to lick it. He whined as he arched his back and I backed off for a moment to let his settled down. Once he relaxed, I licked his gate a few more times and then let his legs down. I stroked his hard cock as I reached for the KY.

"Want to get inside me?" I asked him in a whisper.

"Yes," he replied in a soft voice.

I gently spread a thin coat of KY on his cock and then he had me get on my back with a folded pillow under my ass. Haruki got between my legs and slipped his cock into my ass. He moaned out loud as he sank his cock into me.

"Feels so good," he moaned.

"I love having a young hard cock in my ass," I said.

Haruki smiled then began the lovemaking. He started moving his cock in and out of me as he made love to me. As the feelings swept through his body, he got more vocal and started going faster.

"Feels… so good… love this… I'm close… want to go… want to go," he whispered as he fucked me faster and harder.

"Cum in me, Haruki. Cum in me, give me your love," I whispered into his ear.

He tilted his head back and his body suddenly shuddered. I felt something run through his cock and into me.

"I'm going," he whimpered. "I'm going!"

I held him until he stopped ejaculating. I held him in my arms as he cried on my shoulder. I rubbed his back and patted his shoulders until he stopped crying. A moment later I realized he was asleep. I smiled as I lay him down next to me. I hoped he would remember this night for the rest of his life. I kissed him on the cheek and then pulled the covers over us and went to sleep.

***

I woke to a smiling Haruki the next morning. He set down the cup of coffee and climbed into my lap and kissed me passionately. I smiled and returned the kiss.

"Thank you for last night," he said. "I enjoyed it."

"I'm glad you did. You are a wonderful young man to be with," I said.

He moved aside and I went into the bathroom and took care of business. I took a sip of my coffee and then put it down. Haruki held a pair of my colored briefs in his hand and then he helped me dress. I returned the favor by dressing him. I carried my coffee into the living room as Danny and Harley came out of their room.

"You guys ready for the day?" I asked.

Harley nodded. "Easy stuff."

We met everyone in the small private dining room. Guy called me over and I met the JSSDF Captain and we quickly discussed the route that Harley was to take.

"I have a number of people and equipment in the area already. My only request is that Oswald-san carry a hidden transmitter on him that will be activated prior to the start of the walk so that we can keep tabs on him better," he said.

I agreed instantly, knowing how useful tracking transmitters are. Harley agreed as well and the transmitter was clipped to his belt once he was dressed in the dirty clothes he was to wear for the scene. It was time to go. We went to the start of the route and Harley hopped out of the Suburban once the go ahead was given. Shiro according to plan would shadow him all the way down the street. Rather than waste time in stopping to dress in different clothes, Shiro had some crew people drop five different shirts into trash cans along the route, two different ball caps in two separate cans along with the shirt he wanted. All he had to do was duck long enough to pull off the shirt, grab the new one and pull it on. Shiro practiced it several times and got it down in seconds. He stood behind Harley as he started the scene. Neil instantly hooked us up.

Everybody copy? Neil asked.

Check, I said, being the last to check in, following established procedure.

Harley started off down the street, following the plan that had been laid down. Everything went as planned, each shot progressing nicely. In between camera shots, Harley posed with the various storeowners and the crowd watched. Now the route changed after the third shot was completed, calling for him to go down an alley. Harley started down the alley when suddenly Neil yelled a warning.

Intruder in the alley! Neil called.

Shiro and Sacha were the first to react. They saw a Japanese man come out of nowhere and drop to his knees in front of Harley. There were tears running down his face and he was saying something. Sacha reached him first and grabbed the man as Shiro got there.

"What's he saying?" Harley asked, strangely moved by the man's distress.

"He's asking if you can see his dead son. Apparently he died in an accident here in this alley," Shiro translated.

I stood there at the entry to the alley, blocking it so no one else could see what was going on. Harley took the distraught man's hands in his and nodded. He closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them again. He turned his head to his left and gazed at a spot on the wall and then smiled.

"Shiro, please tell him his son says he is happy there in heaven, and that he doesn't want his Father to grieve anymore. He wants his Father to know he will always be with him in spirit and that he wants his Father to be happy again," Harley said.

Shiro translated what Harley had said. The man stood up and hugged Harley.

"Arigato, arigato," the man said, bowing deep.

Harley returned the bow and the man smiled and turned around and was gone. Harley smiled and sighed.

"Let's get this done," he said about five minutes later.

The rest of the walkabout sequence was shot with no further trouble.

Back at the hotel that evening, Shiro approached Harley. Harley looked up.

"You want to know about what happened today," Harley said.

"Yeah. Has that happened before?" Shiro asked.

"Quite a few times. I tell them their loved ones are safe and happy with God. If it eases their grief and pain, then why not go along with it? When I was picked to do the movie Sixth Sense, I had the distinct feeling I was chosen for the role for a reason. I'm glad I was. I feel as if I'm doing the right thing by saying that. I don't feel that I'm misleading anybody," Harley said.

Guy nodded. "I always knew you had a good heart, Harley. It was proven today. I'm proud of you, and proud to know you."

Harley smiled. "Thanks Guy."

"So what now?" I asked.

"We kick back and relax. The band as I understand it is doing a meet and greet Saturday morning for the sound check, then there are a number of interviews to be done, and then the press conference. After that it's to the trailers for a nap for a few hours to get ready for the show," Guy said.

"Sounds good to me," Yoshi said.

All those involved approved the plan. The meeting broke up and everybody drifted back to their rooms. The waiting started once again.

***

The Saturday events went perfectly. The meet and greet with the winners of a contest a local radio station ran went well. Then the sound check went off without a hitch, the winners enjoying the music. The interviews and the press conference went well. I was glad nobody mentioned the incident in the alley. Then all of us retired to the trailers for a well deserved nap.

I enjoyed having Haruki snuggle up with me. We were up by six, ready to go by seven. The venue was packed to capacity and the fans were all excited. Yoshi and the band were ready to go. The opening act went on and did their thing, and then Shiro walked out. The crowd went crazy.

Hey, everyone ready? He asked.

The roar from the crowd was the response.

Okay, because it's time for the main event! Are you ready? Shiro called out.

The crowd responded once more.

Good, because we are. Here they are, welcome Powersound! Shiro yelled.

Yoshi came on first, playing a soft tune on the guitar. I recognized the tune as a Metallica tune, you know, the one where James comes out first and starts a guitar solo while the others join in one at a time and then they jump into it hard and heavy. That's what Yoshi and the band did much to the delight of the crowd. The moment they hit it hard and heavy, Dustin fired a row of pyrotechnics along the top of the stage overhead from the light rigging. I could see him laughing manically as he did it.

Shit, I hope he doesn't blow up the place, Shiro said.

We had switched to thought speak once Neil hooked all of us up together. I could see Hejiro get a strange look on his face.

It takes a bit getting used to, Hejiro. It was for me at first but now it's second nature to me, I said.

The only way you can do this is if Neil is hooked up to all of us, he said.

Yup. Can't do it on my own, I said.

Interesting, he said and we turned back to the show.

The first four numbers went perfectly. The fifth number was where Harley would do his run through the stadium. I mentally crossed my fingers and hoped this would go perfectly. Yoshi turned to me and nodded. It was time for Harley's run.

Everybody having a good time? Yoshi asked the crowd.

The enthusiastic response was overwhelming.

That's cool. Okay, something I gotta tell you before we go any further. First off I'd like to introduce my friends, more like my family, up here with me tonight. You all know my partner, Jeff. Yoshi said.

The crowd applauded as Jeff took a bow and waved.

Brother Connor on the drums! Yoshi yelled as Connor jogged to the front of the stage and took his bow.

Brothers Brent and Travis! Yoshi introduced them as they took their bows.

"Brother Dustin and his mate Nico there in the back! Yoshi called out as the spotlight hit them.

The crowd cheered them as well.

Okay, as you all know by now, this concert is being filmed for a concert film tonight, so relax, have fun and rock out with us! Yoshi said.

That set off the crowd even more. Yoshi was grinning even more.

Our next song will be the theme for a new movie. While we are doing this song our good friend Harley Joel Oswald will be shooting a scene for the movie in the middle of the crowd. He'll be chased by the bad guy through the crowd, come up here to the front and stage a fist fight with the guy, knock him out, and then jump this fence here to escape. If they go past you, please don't interfere with the scene and don't yell his name. Just rock on and every thing will be just fine. Thanks a lot for helping us out here, Yoshi said.

The crowd cheered and Yoshi started the fifth song and Harley's chase scene got underway. Harley and the chaser wound their way through the crowd on the course they had set a few days before and practiced it. Even the choreographed fight at the front of the stage was perfect, none of the crowd interfering. Harley made it over the fence and disappeared under the stage. That was now in the can and he was in safety. I breathed a little easier. I kicked back and watched the show unfold. Yoshi and crew were doing an outstanding job as usual. At the half point, Yoshi approached the mike.

Hey folks, we're glad all of you are here and having a good time. I know we are, Yoshi said as the crowd cheered. We would like to introduce a close friend of ours who is going to come out and do a number or two for you all. This dude is way cool, so give it up for Aaron Cutler!

I blinked as Aaron walked past me and waved to the crowd as the house shook from the cheers and shouts.

"Thanks a lot for the welcome!" Aaron said, Yoshi translating. "Let's get to it!"

As Aaron started to rap his latest number, I turned to see a grinning Zeus standing there. I signaled to Neil to hook me up with Zeus.

What the fuck? I asked Zeus.

Aaron had some serious trouble in Canada, so that part of his tour was cancelled. He wanted to come here and see Harley in action, Zeus said.

Nothing serious, I hope, I said.

Nothing his agent can't fix. We saw Harley run through the crowd and then fight the guy. Very well done, Zeus said.

Believe me when I tell you I had everything crossed that everything would go well, I said.

Knowing you, I believe it. Your nuts still hurting? Zeus chuckled.

I smiled and turned to the stage and saw Harley standing at the other end looking at Aaron in surprise. Aaron turned to Harley and waved him on the stage. Harley picked up a mike and headed out to the cheers of the crowd.

"Ya miss me, love?" Aaron said as Harley walked up to him.

"Sure did," Harley smiled and they both kissed much to the crowd's delight.

"Shall we do our special songs?" Aaron asked as Yoshi translated.

Harley grinned. "Sure!"

Aaron nodded to Yoshi and he started the opening notes to Come Rain or Come Shine from the Clapton/King CD. The crowd fell silent and waved their lighters as Aaron and Harley took hands and sang together. I felt myself get a bit emotional as the song was played. They kissed once more after the song was done, a bunch of fans in the front row tossing flowers on the stage. Then they did the Rogers/Parton duet Islands In The Stream next and got a bigger ovation for that one. Harley did the Phil Collins song Hold On My Heart, and Aaron did the Eric Clapton song Running On Faith. The crowd went wild as the rest of the stage darkened and a single spotlight illuminated the two lovers as they hugged each other.

Now there are two people who truly deserve each other, Hejiro sighed.

I agree, I said.

Aaron and Harley took their bows and walked off the stage. Aaron led Harley to a dressing room and Zeus sat down on a chair in front of it. Powersound kicked off the second half, really pulling out the stops. The grand finale was just awesome. I could see Dustin jumping up and down like an excited kid. He was enjoying himself. Good thing Nico was there with him to keep him grounded. The band came back and rocked out Led Zeppelin's Rock and Roll for an encore, Robert Plant doing the vocals. He had shown up as Aaron and Harley were doing their songs. Yoshi talked him into doing the song for the encore. The crowd really went wild when he stepped out and started signing. Even Hejiro was singing along. I laughed my head off.

***

The next morning I got up and was surprised I wasn't hurting that badly. I sat up and uncovered my bed partner who groaned as the light his eyes.

"Too damn early to get up," Haruki complained.

I blinked. "It's nearly eleven."

"Like I said, it's too damn early," he complained and then pulled the sheet over his head and went back to sleep.

I stood up and stretched, my back muscles popping back into place. Last night had been some party. We had flown back to the hotel on board two choppers and immediately dove into food and drinks. Robert Plant declined the invitation to join us, saying he had somewhere to go. I thanked him for joining the band on stage.

"I loved it. These guys are really good. I might use them on my next CD," he said and then left.

We had closed the doors to the room we were in once all the other guests were gone. It was just Samurai Inc., Yoshi and the band, Aaron, and Harley. Hejiro wisely retired for the night. Haruki immediately challenged Aaron to a duel of wits and lost. He had to perform a strip in front of all of us. He did one hell of a great job and then joined me on the couch. We got busy making love to each other as Itsuhiko challenged Aaron. Aaron lost that contest and he did his idea of a strip tease and got snagged by Harley. They disappeared to their room for the rest of the night. Itsuhiko challenged Neil and lost. He did a nice strip tease and then snuggled up to Zeus.

"Oh my God!" he exclaimed when he worked Zeus's cock out of his pants.

Haruki and Yasuyuki both blinked at it. Itsuhiko went to work on it as Zeus's expression changed from amusement to pleasure. Neil took on Yasuyuki and beat him. Yasuyuki did his strip tease and then picked Sacha for his partner. I decided things were a bit too public so I carried Haruki to my room and laid him on the bed. I stripped myself naked as Haruki watched. I stretched out on the bed next to the Japanese teen and started pleasuring him. He closed his eyes and shivered as the pleasure took him over. I pleasured his smooth body with my hands, fingers, mouth, and tongue. I kissed, licked, and sucked every inch of his body, including his hole. It wasn't puckered like it should be, but slightly rounded. Someone had taken him a few times. I could feel his mouth on my cock as I lubricated and stretched his ass for a good fucking. Once he was ready he quickly scrambled to get on top of me. I lay flat on my back as he squatted over my cock and pushed himself down on it. He closed his eyes and shivered as he moaned. I could feel my cock slowly sink into his tight ass. He went all the way down on me. I was firmly lodged deep in his ass. He started riding my cock and I shivered from the feelings that raced through me. I took all I could after five minutes and pushed him off me. The Japanese teen immediately rolled on his back, shoving a folded pillow under his ass. I got between his legs and shoved back in.

"Fuck me, fuck me," he moaned.

That's just what I did. I rode his ass hard, fucking him fast. He pulled and twisted my nipples as I rode him to orgasm. I could feel my load blow out into his ass as I came. Haruki sighed as I let his legs down. "You were so strong for me. I love having a strong man take me. Thank you for the pleasure."

I pulled him close to me and we drifted off to sleep.

Zeus had picked up Itsuhiko in his big strong arms and carried the boy to his room. He stripped himself and then the boy. Itsuhiko's eyes grew big at the sight of Zeus as the man stood over the boy.

"You big boy! I gonna love fucking you!" Itsuhiko grinned.

Zeus slid into the bed and kissed Itsuhiko. They decided to skip the foreplay and go right to the main event. Zeus gently lubed up Itsuhiko's cock and then instructed the boy how to prepare his ass. Itsuhiko followed the instructions to the letter and then sank his cock into Zeus.

"Feels good," he moaned as he started fucking Zeus.

Zeus had to agree. He loved feeling the teen cock moving inside of him. He could feel the cock head thump his prostate. Itsuhiko was really getting into it, fucking Zeus hard and fast. He started talking in Japanese, as he got closer to his orgasm.

"I go! I go!" Itsuhiko cried out as he fired his load deep into Zeus.

Zeus fired his own load all over the bed sheets as Itsuhiko's cock head rubbed his prostate just right. Both shivered and moaned as they had their orgasms. Itsuhiko backed off and both of them pulled the messy sheet off the bed and used the soft comforter to cover themselves before going to sleep.

Sacha, Yasuyuki, and Neil were sucking each other off at the same time in their room. Yasuyuki couldn't believe the wonderful feelings he was getting from this. He'd played with other boys before but this was turning into an experience for him. Sacha sucked the cum out of Yasuyuki a moment later, as the Japanese boy cried out in ecstasy. Yasuyuki settled back down and started sucking Neil's cock once more. Sacha slipped a lubed finger into Yasuyuki's ass and started prepping him for fucking. Yasuyuki moaned as he felt Sacha's fingers moving around inside of him. A moment later Sacha pushed his cock into Yasuyuki's ass and started fucking him. Yasuyuki whimpered and shivered as he felt Sacha's cock enter him. Sacha started fucking him, Yasuyuki urging him on. It didn't take long for Sacha to unload inside Yasuyuki. Neil shot his load down Yasuyuki's throat as Sacha came deep inside Yasuyuki. All three boys tumbled on the bed after they had their orgasms.

Yasuyuki relaxed for a bit as Neil and Sacha snuggled up together and went to sleep. He wasn't quite satisfied yet, so he slipped a kimono on and slipped out of the room and went in search of Aaron and Harley. He encountered Itsuhiko in the hall.

I couldn't sleep, he said.

I wanted a shot at Aaron Cutler, Yasuyuki said.

Itsuhiko grinned. I'd love to have Harley ride my ass!

Both of them sneaked down the hall to Harley's room and peeked in. They saw Harley and Aaron sitting up and talking. They turned to see Itsuhiko and Yasuyuki looking at them.

"Hey, what's up?" Aaron asked.

Itsuhiko and Yasuyuki came in and closed the door. "We were wondering if you guys would fuck us?"

Aaron turned to Harley and they whispered for a moment. "Sure. Come over and get on your backs and we'll do all the work."

They quickly shed their kimonos and assumed the position. Aaron took Itsuhiko and Harley took Yasuyuki. They fucked both of them soundly, relaxed for a bit, and switched boys, Harley fucking Itsuhiko and Aaron doing Yasuyuki. After coming once more, they all relaxed for a bit. Then it was Itsuhiko and Yasuyuki's turn to fuck Aaron and Harley. They got off big time, enjoying their orgasms. They switched, Yasuyuki taking Aaron and Itsuhiko taking Harley. They must have really enjoyed themselves, because I found all four with big smiles on their faces the next morning.

We spent the day kicking back and relaxing. Itsuhiko, Yasuyuki, and Haruki put their heads together and planned a walkabout tour for us. I looked forward to going to some of the places, remembering the time I had been here. Asano had promised me a tour and it had never happened due to circumstances. Hejiro rented a charter bus for all of us and even paid the driver an advance fee to drive us around. When he met all of us he bowed and told us he was honored to help us. He promised some real sights and he definitely delivered on that. When we got back we discovered all of the Powersound gear had been packed up and shipped back to the States. Zeus had gone back with it so we knew it would be safe. The band flew out later that evening on the Yaguu jet with a few men for protection. We relaxed for another day or two and then Harley approached me one afternoon by the pool.

"Got another project," he announced. "Aaron is involved, Guy Truant is directing, and the others are Daniel Redrock, Hugh Mitchell, Tom Fulton, and Rupert Grunt. We need to go to England to get them."

I sat up and looked at Harley. I had the feeling this was going to get interesting.

Next episode: We go to England, rescue our English friends, fly back to Peckertown, Hejiro gets his first look at Peckertown, Hugh goes to PTA, and the fun continues!

These characters indicate thought speak.

We were relaxing in our Tokyo, Japan hotel suite after Harley Joel Oswald finished the movie he did with three of Japan's boy actors. Sammo answered the front door and came back handing Harley a thick envelope. Harley opened it and smiled.

"Yes, it's on. Oh shit," Harley said.

"What's up?" Shiro said.

"I hate to cut this vacation short but got a new movie to make and I'm going to need to pick up the rest of the cast in jolly old England. And to top it all off we are heading back to Peckertown for the shoot."

"Cool, liked that town," Neil said.

"Is that the script?" I asked.

"Yes," Harley handed it to me.

I gave it a quick read. The basic story was okay, but the script needed work.

"You said Guy is involved in this?" I asked.

Harley sipped his cold drink. "Yes, thank God."

"I'll drink to that," Aaron said.

I sighed. "Right, team meeting in fifteen. I need to make some calls."

First I called Mac in Hollywood. He confirmed the project was real and that Guy was already in Peckertown getting everything set up. Then I called Daniel Redrock.

"Redrock residence," he answered.

"This is the Happy Happy Joy Joy Company. We aim to please," I said.

Daniel laughed from the other end. "Logan! I assume you've heard."

"Sure did. Called Mac in Hollywood and got the confirmation," I said.

"So did my Dad. After last time he insisted on you coming after us," he said.

"Good. I'll call you back once I get the travel arrangements made," I said.

"We'll be ready," Daniel promised and hung up.

I called Takaneda. "Yo brother. I need help here."

I explained the situation to him and he promised a solution. I could hear him chuckle as he hung up. I wondered if I should worry. I shrugged it off and called Zeus in Peckertown. He was delighted.

"More fun to be had," he said. "I'll let certain people know."

The cell rang again two hours later. "The Hippie Shack."

"Ivy League Clothiers," Takaneda shot back at me.

"You're getting better at this," I commented as he laughed. "I take it you have a solution for us?"

"Yes. Narita airport, eight o'clock tomorrow morning. Be there," he said and hung up before I could say anything else.

I looked up as all the guys gathered around me.

"No more working," Shiro said as they lifted the lounger I was lying on, carried me to the pool, and dumped me in.

That started a free for all that lasted the rest of the day.

***

The next morning all of us stood on the airport tarmac staring at the plane sitting there. Along the sides were the words Samurai Inc. painted in black with gold trim around each letter. Underneath the words was a Samurai's Katana with a red cord wrapped around it loose. Hejiro, Takaneda, and Kazuya stood there with big smiles on their faces.

"Do you guys like it?" Takaneda asked.

I dropped my bags and hugged my old friend. "Thank you brother."

I then hugged Onashi and bowed to Kazuya. "Thank you very much. It is an answer to future travel problems."

We got on board and the interior was spacious and very well done. The plane's interior was done in rich colors, red, gold, and earth tones. The front section had a few seats placed by each window. In the middle were a few swivel chairs with tiny tables next to them. Movies could be shown in this part. A large desk took up one corner with a big office style chair behind it. In the middle section was a large table with swivel chairs around it. We could have meetings here, eat here, and do whatever. In the next section were the galley and the bathrooms. Sammo grinned at the sight of the galley. It had everything a cook could want and need. I peeked into the bathroom area. It was fairly large, not like the ones on commercial carriers. There was even a shower area between the bathrooms. There wasn't anything to indicate the men's room from the women's room. Takaneda showed me a sign I could hang on the door if I ever have a female passenger. The back area was dark and there were no windows. Asano turned a light on and then I could see a few beds. Oh joy, we could camp out on the jet if needed! I was relieved to see them.

Danny rushed up to the controls and started poking around. Danny is the only one of us qualified to fly big jets like this one, so getting a pilot wasn't a problem, thank God. I'd have to go and get qualified. Hopefully that wouldn't be a problem. If it comes down to it, I could shake the trees and hire a pilot if need be. There was no way we could keep the jet at the mountain. It would have to be berthed at Denver. Thank God we had clearance to fly in with the Lear when needed. I sat down at my new desk and checked out the chair and started playing with the things on my desk.

"I need to show you something else," Takaneda said.

I followed him to a tiny elevator that dropped us down into the bottom half of the plane. He handed me a card after the rest of the team came down. I ran the card key through the slot and the door popped open. I walked into what looked like a smaller version of the ready room I have back home. Brand spanking new weapons gleamed from the racks along the walls. I opened a cabinet marked 'Dive Equipment' and found a dozen brand new rebreathers of the highest caliber. Takaneda handed me a thick envelope and I opened it up. Inside were special permits from the Government of Japan authorizing us to carry and use weapons anywhere inside Japanese territories.

"You'll be getting the same from the English Government when you guys get there," Takaneda. "The Americans will be giving you the same."

I stood there not knowing what to say. Takaneda patted my arm and I looked up.

"Please inform the Japanese Government that I owe them a debt of gratitude," I said to Takaneda.

"Hirohito was extremely honked off that you didn't get the medals he put you in for and clearly stated that if you ever needed anything we were to get it to you. Well, we have known for some time you needed a better transportation solution, plus a place where you could operate out of and not worry about having equipment. This is the answer to your problems," Takaneda said.

Shiro closely inspected one of the guns. "It's the new issue MP-5 with integrated laser sights and other goodies!"

I grinned. "Plenty of time for a weapons inspection once we are airborne. We gotta get going to England."

We headed up to the top floor and Danny came out of the cockpit grinning.

"She's got all the latest gear, including stealth. We ready boss?" he asked.

I smiled. "Let's see what she's got."

Danny whooped and headed up front once again. All of us laughed as we took our places. Takaneda shook my hand.

"I wish you well. Logan. Come back soon," he said.

He turned to Hejiro and bowed. I wish you well in your future Onashi-san. May you find happiness in your new home.

I shall keep in touch old friend, Hejiro said, bowing back.

Takaneda walked out of the plane and Shiro closed and secured the hatch.

"Danny, get us up there, el pronto!" I yelled.

I took my place at my new desk and felt the plane vibrate slightly as Danny fired up the engines. Danny let out a southern rebel yell as the plane left the runway as all of us cheered loudly. We were definitely on our way.

***

Sammo, Shiro, Neil, Sacha, and Hejiro followed me down to the second level. We started an inventory and weapons inspection at the same time. There are far too many things to describe and identify, so you'll have to accept my word when I tell you we were far better loaded than your average bear. Naturally Sacha prefers his own personal gear, but he was glad to see there was a setup for him. Once the weapons inventory and inspection was done, I headed back upstairs with Sacha, Neil, and Hejiro. Shiro stayed down there to assess the computers and other electronic items. I sat down at my desk and started to check out the laptop computer that was bolted to the desk. It was a top of the line one and I liked it. The phone on my desk rang.

"Dad? It's me down below. I've uploaded everything from the old ops laptop into the onboard main frame. Sammo's bringing you a CD with the Internet provider we use for you to up load into your computer on your desk. Once that's done, we need to set up a link to the mainframe so you can access what ever," Shiro said.

I looked at the screen and identified all the stuff on the desktop. Shiro stopped me at the fifth item.

"That's it. All you gotta do is double click it and it will open the appropriate window to it," Shiro said.

I double clicked it and told him what I saw in there.

"Good. That's it. Usual passwords for it," Shiro said as Sammo walked up to me.

"All I have to do is stick this disc into the CD-ROM drive and it does everything?" I asked.

"Yes, just make sure you use the Samurai Inc pass on it. I'll set up the rest of us up on it later," Shiro said.

"Got it," I said, and loaded it in.

"Be up later," Shiro said and hung up.

I watched as Sammo sat down at the table and got dealt into the card game with Hejiro, Sacha, and Neil. I must have dozed off because Shiro was shaking me awake.

"Dad, we're landing," he said.

I looked at my watch. It was early evening now. We had barely left Japan at first light. We had gotten clearance to fly over Russia and I hoped Sacha would be okay with that.

"I'm fine Dad. Thanks for asking," he said.

Hejiro sat next to me and handed me a disc to lock in my desk as we landed.

"I've read the reports you guys have written. That's some stuff you've been in," he said as the plane halted on the tarmac and then followed a jeep to a hanger.

Sammo went and opened the door as the stairs were put in place. He recognized Q, M, and a second man named Bill Tanner, chief of Staff coming up the stairs.

"Dad, we got company," he called to me.

Q was the first face I saw. "Welcome back to England!"

M and Tanner came in and I escorted them to the conference table. "It is good to see you again. You look well."

"Thank you. Business first. These are your special clearances to operate in England," he said, pushing a small package towards me. "Second thing is we have a situation. It goes like this. A militant group stating they had gotten a message from God to execute the Harry Potter kids for promoting Satanism took hostage Redrock and his friends Mitchell, Fulton, Grunt and Miss Watson at a talk show two hours ago. The studio is cleared of all persons except for them."

I stood up. "Everybody suit up, we're going in."

As each of us exited the plane Q handed us our special ops ID's and got into the truck with us. We got an escort through the streets while Q briefed us on some new technology he developed.

"This is a special item designed to help us keep track of you at all times. You inject it under your skin prior to insertion. It will show up on our monitors as a red spot. Once you reach the kids, inject them with this one. They'll show up as a blue spot. Anyone else that shows up is enemy," Q said.

I smiled. "I like it."

"Consider it our present to you," he smiled.

The truck stopped and we got out. Hejiro followed Q to the huge trailer nearby as we brought up the rear. We studied the layout of the studio and planned our attack. Neil turned to Hejiro.

"Sir will you allow me in your head?" he asked.

"Yes. Now you and Sacha remember what I have taught you so far," Hejiro said.

He closed his eyes and so did Neil. Neil touched Hejiro's left temple and then stepped away. Hejiro opened his eyes and smiled.

"Hejiro's online Dad," Neil reported.

"Good. Time for us to go to work," I said.

Shiro injected each of us and red dots showed on the monitor. I checked and shook down each man as he passed me. Hejiro checked me out and nodded. We were ready.

***

Neil floated himself and Sacha up to the top of the building once he was out of sight of the crowd gathered two blocks away. I knew the British press would be watching through high-powered scopes and binoculars. Danny, Shiro, Sammo, and I went into the building at separate entrances. I stopped and listened carefully. It was too damn quiet. I wasn't sure what to expect.

Logan, unidentified at your left, Hejiro informed me.

I moved into the shadows and waited. A heavyset guy in a military uniform came walking into my view. I studied him for a moment and then reacted. I was on him so fast he didn't know what hit him. I quickly cuffed him and set him on the couch by the front door and then moved back into the shadows.

That's one down, I announced.

Eight to go, Neil said. There are three in the theater, watching Daniel and co. At least they let the audience go.

Good. The fewer hostages the better. Neil, can you get through to Daniel? I asked, hoping Daniel could provide us with intel.

Nope, sorry. He's too hyped up, Neil reported.

Okay. Keep alert, folks. This isn't over yet, I said.

Sammo took out one in his area, Neil reported.

Seven left. These guys were sloppy. I made it into the stage area and slowly peeked around the curtain. What I saw made my nuts go cold. The bastards had Emma Watson taped into a chair with what looked like five pounds of C-4 taped to her chest. She looked very calm and collected. I pulled my ops binoculars and looked her over. It was a remote control one. I pulled back and considered our options.

Remote control C-4 bang taped to her chest, I reported.

Dude in the jean jacket is holding the trigger, Neil reported.

I'm in the balcony boss. I can take a shot, Danny informed me.

He can, too. I've seen him drop a deer back home at over a thousand yards. He practices every day, making his own loads rather than buying the military surplus.

Can you do it with out hitting the principals? I asked.

Yup, Danny replied.

Hit remote man first, I instructed. Then everyone else. Stay there; you're the cover gunner.

Going fourth row, got tweed jacket in my sights, Sacha said.

I looked and saw Sacha rise up a bit and then go down. Damn he's gotten better! He really has been paying attention to Hejiro. That's two more covered. Shiro's head peeked over the edge of the stage. I saw his eyes flick left. I eased the hand mirror out and moved it until I saw the man standing to my left. Got him covered. Shiro had the last man. I let out my breath and relaxed.

On three, two, one, and go! I said, and all of us moved as one.

After the dust cleared, I strolled up to Daniel.

"Hiya kid. Thought we'd drop in. Hope you don't mind," I said.

Daniel just roared with laughter. "Glad to see you man! Help her out, will you?"

I turned to Emma Watson. "Nothing to it, just a clip here and there, and we'll get rid of that thing. Not fashionable, you know."

She smiled at that. "You must be the crazy American Daniel has told me about."

I pointed my thumb at Danny. "That's his job."

Danny gave me the bird as the SAS guys came in. Shiro handed me a tool kit and I went to work with the SAS bomb squad guy. We had her out of it in moments. All the baddies with the exception of remote man huddled together on the stage under Sammo's watchful eye. Sammo kept them covered with his rifle as the SAS frisked each one and cuffed them. Two others wrapped up the one Danny shot.

"Is he," Emma began.

"I'm afraid so," Danny said as he wrapped his arm around her and escorted her off the stage.

All of us cleared the stage and went backstage and climbed into two separate Range Rovers and were taken to police headquarters. It was another two hours before everything was sorted out. At last we were able to move on.

I sat in the living room of the Redrock house as his parents said goodbye to Daniel before leaving the house to go see Mrs. Redrock's parents. We were staying the night and leaving in the morning. Danny was splayed out behind the couch with an MP-5 on his chest, sawing some serious wood. Daniel closed the door after his parents left. Tom Fulton drifted in from the kitchen holding a cup of tea.

"Shiro, your Grandfather sure knows a thing or two about tea," he said.

"Grandpa likes to brew his own. He's teaching me things about roots and plants to use for teas to cure certain things," Shiro said.

"Sounds like a Hogwarts class," Tom groaned.

All of us laughed at that. Hejiro walked into the living room at that moment. He looked at Danny splayed out behind the couch with a silly smile on his face.

"He's okay. He's having his monthly erotic dream," I cracked.

Shiro, Sammo, and Neil laughed at that. Hejiro just shook his head. The doorbell rang right then and I rose to get it. I turned to say something and noticed Danny had shot up and was in a sitting position, weapon pointed at the door. He was ready to rock. Neil opened the door and stepped back. Hugh followed Rupert in and once the door was closed, assumed the ready position. Rupert reached into a bag and pulled out a black nylon collar and put it around Hugh's neck.

"Thank you Master," the younger boy said.

Hejiro looked at me in surprise. All of us turned to look at Danny as he let out a loud snore. He'd gone back to sleep again with the same silly smile on his face.

"I get the feeling life with you guys is anything but ordinary," Hejiro sighed.

I grinned. "As they say in the show business, you ain't seen nothing yet!"

Hejiro closed his eyes and sighed again. "I am in so much trouble."

Shiro introduced his grandfather to the guys as Sammo drifted into the kitchen and I sat down on the couch and started flipping through the channels.

"It's Tuesday night, I doubt you'll find anything," Tom said as he sat on the couch next to me.

"Not even the Peckertown Channel?" I asked.

Tom snorted. "There's no way you'll find that here. A boy lover group raised hell when the cable and satellite companies refused to carry it. They initiated lawsuits against them all and got shot down so bad it wasn't funny. The cops raided them all and the groups are now suing the Crown, alleging police brutality, misuse of government power, and conspiring with the cable and the satellite companies. It's getting really ugly."

"I could buy us space on one of the satellites and get it in on the plane's dish," Shiro suggested.

"Make it happen. See if we can't get it at home as well," I said.

"Yes sir," Shiro saluted.

I sighed and set down the remote. "So now what?"

"Dinner's ready," Sammo announced from the kitchen.

The living room was vacated a second later as the teen boys rushed the kitchen. I strolled in after them and discovered that Sammo had made a huge pot of spaghetti. Hejiro smiled at the smell of pasta and sauce bubbling on the stove.

"Been awhile since I had a plate of it," he sighed. "That Italian mama in the downtown section of Nagasaki could cook a mean plate of pasta."

Sammo and the guys stepped back and let Hejiro have first crack at it. He took a bite and then smiled.

"Oh yes, this is perfect. Just need a nice Italian wine with this," he sighed.

Daniel Redrock returned a moment later with a bottle of red wine and handed it to Hejiro.

"Would this do, sir?" he asked.

Hejiro examined the label and smiled. Daniel opened the bottle and poured a bit into a wineglass and handed it to Hejiro. He sniffed at it and then tasted it.

"Perfect," he said and set down the glass.

Daniel filled it to the proper level and set it down. He poured me a glass as I sat down and I too sipped at it. It was good wine. I decided a shopping trip was in order before we left. After dinner was done, Neil and Sacha teamed up to clean the kitchen spotless.

"No need to piss your folks off," Neil said to Daniel.

"Oy, my Mom would flip if I left even so much as a candy wrapper on the counter," Daniel said.

"Quick meeting in the living room. We need to discuss plans for this escapade," I said as I carried my coffee into the living room.

Danny hadn't moved since we got here. By now he had a look of relief on his face and a large wet stain at his crotch. I grinned.

"Looks like a case of uncontrollable combustion," Daniel said.

I just shook my head as the guys laughed. We sat down on the couch and started discussing details. We would use the big farmhouse we owned close to Aaron and Harley's and the PTA (Peckertown Training Academy). When Hugh wasn't needed on the set he'd be in Caleb's hands being trained to be an obedient catamite to his masters. I made the assignments and they went something like this. Shiro would cover Daniel. Sammo would cover Tom. Neil would cover Rupert. Sacha would cover Harley, and I would have Wang cover Aaron if he was available. Otherwise it would be Danny. The Yamane Brothers would escort Hugh from the PTA to the film set when he was needed. Hejiro would be back up and support.

"The actual filming isn't supposed to start for a month," Harley said. "We could either camp out in Peckertown or crash your place at the mountain. That would give us time to work the script and play a bit."

I scratched my chin. "That would give Caleb time to work with Hugh."

"Okay. Plan A is to stay in Peckertown. Plan B is to drop Hugh there and crash at Logan's Mountain," Sammo proposed. "Let's vote."

Plan B won by majority vote. I called Mac on my cell.

"Glad you called. Aaron's raised a stink on the script and so has Guy," Mac informed me. "Got any ideas?"

"Yes. It was decided that all of us are staying at my place to get the script ironed out. Aaron can record while we work the script. Guy is welcome at my place as well. His opinion will be needed," I said.

"Another change just happened," Mac said. "I just got a note from my secretary that one of the minor actors has dropped out because Mommy got wind of where the movie is going to be and she raised hell."

"What was the part?" I asked, intrigued.

"It requires a country boy who can sing a little," Mac said. "Why?"

"Billy Golman," I said.

"Call you later," he said, hanging up on me.

I set my cell down and told the guys what happened. Harley grinned.

"Billy is an excellent choice. He can work with Aaron to come up with some good songs for a soundtrack," he said.

I suddenly remembered Powersound. "Powersound can back them."

"They went home on commercial, remember?" Shiro reminded me.

I sighed. Of course they had. A few of the Yaguu security guys went with them as the Clan Yaguu jet had flown them home, gear and all. The cell rang and I picked it up.

"Bark Bark Productions," I said into the speaker.

"Cat Lovers of America, we claw to please," Mac cracked.

Hejiro grinned as he caught on as the guys rolled on the floor. I smiled.

"What's the word?" I asked.

"Oh, you are going to love me for this," Mac cackled.

"I already do. Why else would I Fed Ex a flamingo to you?" I grinned.

Harley roared in laughter as he pounded on the carpet as Shiro, Sammo, and Neil laughed. The other guys raised their eyebrows at us. Mac sighed.

"One of these day, bubba," he said.

"Promises, promises. So tell me why I'm going to love you?" I asked.

"Billy's in England, performing for the Queen's Birthday bash," he informed me.

Daniel reacted to that. "Oh man! I forgot to tell you we were invited!"

Shiro picked up his cell and called Q.

"No problem. I'll call some friends and arrange to retrieve Billy from them," I said. "His family and agent know what's up?"

"Yes, and they are glad for the chance to get him on the silver screen, not to mention the month long break at your place. They said he needs it," Mac said.

"Thanks Mac. Catch you later," I said and hung up.

"So what was so funny about Fed Exing a flamingo?" Tom asked.

Harley grinned. "Well, it happened like this," he started to explain as he laughed.

Once he finished his explanation, the house shook from the laughter. Still amazes me that Harley can laugh about what was one of the scariest moments of his life.

***

The deal was that we would show up at the Palace the next evening in formal. I checked to make sure I still had the company credit card and Daniel checked his own suits. Tom, Rupert, and Hugh had left theirs at home so we made arrangements to have them picked up and delivered.

"Where's a good place to go?" I asked Daniel.

"There is a small shop right around the corner from Marks and Spencer," Daniel said. "Alan Rickman and the other male actors love that place. They do everything right the first time out, right on the spot, and they always come up with the right colors to match and provide the right kind of accessories."

"Right. We're off then lads," I said in my best English accent.

"Not bad. That's an eight," Tom said.

"Nine," Daniel nodded.

"Nine," Rupert agreed.

Hugh smiled. "Ten!" he chirped.

I smiled at Hugh. "I like you kid."

We piled into the rented Range Rover and Daniel directed us to the store. Reminded me of those English tailor shops in all the movies. Two hours later, we came out with new suits tailored to fit with all the necessary accessories. Those gents did their jobs so efficiently I left them a hefty tip. Even Hejiro looked damn good in his.

"I'd forgotten what a good suit felt like," he smiled as he looked in the mirror.

Shiro carefully braided his Grandfather's long white hair into a single French braid and it looked good. All the other guys looked good in their suits, even Danny. We went to the Palace and were let in after our ID's were carefully examined and the invitations carefully examined. These security people knew their business. Q met us in the foyer.

"All of you look absolutely smashing," he said. "Steed and Peal?"

"Yes. Those guys know their stuff," I said.

He beamed. "I've been getting my clothes there for years. The Queen heard you were in country and wants to meet you."

I turned and checked everybody one time. "Lead on, sir."

The Queen was a very nice lady and I was delighted to meet her. We talked for a moment and she thanked me for rescuing Daniel and his friends. I knew there were very important people she wanted to talk to so I moved us on into the party room. Talk about elegance! The china was the finest I'd ever seen and so was the crystal. The party was nice and Billy definitely outdid himself. They gave him an outstanding ovation and he posed with the Queen for pictures. Afterwards the security escorted Billy to us as arranged and we went back to Daniel's place.

"You did great," I said to Billy as we walked into the living room.

Billy grinned. "That was fun! I enjoyed performing for her. Something I'll never forget," he said as he pulled his tie off.

"Well, everyone get some sleep. We fly in the morning," I said.

"The flight plan has been filed to New York, Little Rock, and Denver. I've rented a temporary hangar for our jet. I was told there are a number of empty hangars for sale we can look over. I also sent an email to Brick advising him of current events," Shiro said as he headed upstairs with Sammo.

"Good. You and Sammo can return the Cessna to Peckertown," I said.

Danny dropped a couple of pillows and his bedroll in the hallway and settled down with his MP-5 at the ready as people headed into bedrooms for the night. We were sleeping four to a room with the exception of Danny. It had been a long day.

What the hell! Shiro heard Hejiro yell the next morning.

Danny beat him to the door of the room and both of them looked in to see a lump in the middle of the bed going up and down. I pushed my way in and saw a pair of small feet sticking out from under the covers.

"Are you all right?" I asked, knowing what was going on.

Hejiro closed his eyes and whimpered, and then sighed and relaxed. He lay back down in bed and the covers came flying back to reveal a grinning Hugh, licking his lips. Hejiro had gotten the Hugh Special wake up call. I sighed as Danny and Shiro laughed. Hugh pranced past us and headed down to the kitchen.

"Okay, show's over. Shiro, make sure your Grandfather's okay," I said. "Everyone else queue up for the showers and let's get the lead out."

Shiro went into the room and closed the door behind him. There were two available showers, one in the master bedroom, and one in the main bathroom in the hall. The guys went into the showers in pairs to help save time. Hugh handed me a cup of coffee as I walked into the kitchen and I took it from him and then grabbed him by his collar and pulled him over to the table and sat down in front of him.

"Hejiro is Shiro's Grandfather, and he is still getting used to the idea of Shiro being gay and having Sammo as his consort. What you did was very premature and I hope to God that Hejiro isn't pissed at you or us for that matter. Until we tell you otherwise, Hejiro is off limits. Do I make myself clear on that matter?" I snapped.

Hugh looked like he was going to cry. "Yes sir."

"This is partially my fault as well. I should have told you and the others to begin with. What's done is done. Now get busy with breakfast. We don't have time for games this morning," I said, tapping his bottom.

He turned around and got busy. Hearing Danny coming down the stairs, he handed me another cup of coffee and jacked off into it as Danny watched. I handed the cup to Danny and he stirred it and sipped and then smiled.

"Very good," he grinned.

I stood up and went up for my shower. Daniel, Rupert, Tom, Neil, and Sacha were dressing. Daniel looked at me as I stuck my head in.

"We're really sorry about that. We'll punish him later," Daniel said.

"No you won't," I said. "I already did that. Until further notice, Hejiro is off limits. He needs time to adjust to all this."

The teens all nodded and I went to the bathroom for my shower. I noticed the door to Hejiro's room was still closed and I hoped everything was all right. Shiro told me later they had a long talk and I decided to change the conduct rules at the house to restrict nudity to the pool, playroom, and the bedrooms once again.

Harley slipped into the shower with me and hugged me. "Is everything going to be okay? Hejiro is a really nice guy and I think given time he might get comfortable with what we do."

"I hope so," I said. "Let me wash you down."

I washed his delightful body and he washed mine. I wished there was time to have a little fun, but we needed to get moving so I gave him a rain check for the next time.

We got packed and set off in the Range Rovers Q had thoughtfully provided for us. We were to leave them at the airport in the rented hangar where we put the plane. Daniel looked at me as we passed through the back gate of the airport.

"You guys rented a plane?" he asked.

I grinned. "Not exactly."

Billy, Daniel, Hugh, Tom, and Rupert gazed in wonder at the plane as we stood there for a moment.

"Wow," Hugh said after a moment. "She's beautiful."

I nodded. "That she is. A gift from the Japanese government, the Clan Yaguu, and the Clan Onashi."

I looked up to see Danny emerge. "All clear boss."

We climbed up the stairs and Billy made a beeline for the closest chair and strapped himself in. I had to chuckle.

"We don't have turbo drive in this plane, Billy. You're safe this time," I laughed. "Billy tends to end up on the back wall of the Lear every time we punch the turbo mode we need to escape a situation."

Danny laughed. "I remember the first time, boss."

Billy turned red with embarrassment as I chuckled. "How can I forget?"

Danny laughed once more and then followed Shiro down to the ready room to lock his gear away. He came back up ten minutes later and went into the cockpit area. He started the plane and went through his preflight checks. Danny is a fanatic about things like that. If there was going to be a problem, he wanted to find out before leaving the ground. The others went down to the ready room and locked their gear away and then came back up.

"We be ready to rock," Danny's voice came out of the speaker on my desk.

"Then do it," I said to Danny.

A tractor pulled us out of the hangar then to the departure area before he let us go. Danny fired up the engines and taxied the plane to the line and once he got clearance, shot down the runway and lifted us into the morning sky. We were airborne.

"Good afternoon gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We are now at cruising altitude of 20000 feet. For those of you new to Samurai Airlines, there is a frequent flyers program that will be starting up. Please ask me for information later. In the meantime, there is a flight attendant who will see to your comforts and needs. Anything you need, just wave… something and he'll take care of you," Danny said.

That last line got a huge laugh from all of us as Hugh popped out from the middle station in a dress. Hejiro merely raised his right eyebrow.

"We apologize for the loss of the in flight movie today. The menu is a bit limited today, so please ask the attendant to find out what is available. Thank you for flying Samurai Airlines," Danny clicked off.

I had to grin. Danny was always trying to find the humorous side of things. I turned to the laptop on my desk and turned it on and started writing an after action report of the events during Daniel's rescue. Hugh stopped at my desk with a tall glass of cold sake and I took it from him.

""Thanks kid," I said, slapping him on the ass.

Hugh grinned as he walked away to check on the others. Hejiro sat down across from me a moment later.

"He's an unusual kid," he said.

"That he is," I said, looking up from the computer. "It's what he likes to do."

"The world has changed quite a bit since I disappeared," Hejiro sighed.

I thought about that for a moment as I sipped my sake. He did have a point there. Things do change if we like it or not and we must change with them or die.

"Are you okay with what happened this morning?" I asked.

"Yes, I am now. Shiro and I had a long talk and we discussed some things. I've had a boy or two in the past, back in my younger days. I know that people prefer younger partners these days and tend to leave us old ones out in the cold. This morning was the first time in a very long time I've been sucked off by a boy and it took me by surprise. I didn't think that a boy could find me attractive," Hejiro said.

I smiled. "I think boys today are a lot more together than we give them credit for. You'll see a lot of that in Peckertown. There are a number of extremely wealthy boys in Peckertown who have done some good with their money. I am sure you'll hear of them once we get there. The majority of the boys who have gone there have worked very hard to prove to the adults there in the town that they are more than capable of making up their minds on a large number of issues. As a matter of fact some are running for local city government right now."

"The world has become a different place indeed," Hejiro sighed.

"Don't I know it," I sighed as Sammo walked past me with a deck of cards. "Looks like Sammo's starting a poker game. Interested?"

Hejiro smiled. "Prepare to lose your jockey shorts."

I grinned. "I wear briefs."

***

We landed in New York about fourteen hours later. Shiro and Sammo went off to fly the Cessna back to Peckertown after they cleared Customs. Hubble was there along with Brick and another man I'd never seen before.

"Nice to see you Davie," Hubble said.

I shook his hand and introduced him to Hejiro. Hubble bowed and shook his hand. Brick did the same and so did the man with him. Brick turned to introduce the man with him.

"You hound dog!" Danny yelled from the top step as he came out of the plane.

The man smiled at Danny. "Been awhile. Still slipping through walls?"

Danny came down the steps and hugged the man. "Good to see you, man!"

"Want to introduce us here?" I asked Danny.

Danny grinned. "This is Mike "Hound Dog" Perkins. Air Farce, retired."

"Oh?" I asked.

"I'm called Hound Dog because of my uncanny sense of direction. Earned the name flying Danny and his playmates through a sandstorm in Desert Storm with no instrumentation to guide us. The very nervous spook wanted to kill the mission but I said no, it was important. I got them there and dropped them right on the dime. The idiot spook threatened to have me dry docked. Danny and his friends backed me. Guess who got retired first," Mike said.

Hubble grinned. "The spook?"

"I enjoyed watching him get his ass dragged out of the Capitol building. The President nearly went over the desk to get the guy. I retired last year and been bumming around for a long time. I've settled in Denver and work at the airport there doing odd jobs," Mike said.

"You still fly?" I asked.

"Qualify every year on every thing," Mike grinned. "I live at the airport in a big double wide trailer on the grounds. Been known to hop in the cockpit of a plane to fill in for a pilot every now and then."

"You're hired to fly us internationally and when the need arises here at home. We'll discuss pay later," I said as my cell rang.

"Flying High Airlines," Shiro said when I picked up.

"Elmer Fudd Bus Tours," I cracked.

Mike looked at me strangely as the others laughed.

"I'll explain later, buddy. Let's go take a look at your new workspace," Danny said, escorting the short red head older man up the stairs into the plane.

"Where you at, Shiro?" I asked.

"12000 feet. We got up here twenty minutes ago," he reported.

Damn, these new cells work fucking great! "Good. You know what to do when you hit Peckertown," I said.

"See you when we see you," Shiro said and clicked off.

"Anybody hungry?" I asked.

I got a bunch of grins in return. God, don't these kids think of anything else besides food and sex? I sighed.

"You coming?" I asked Brick.

"Yup. I know a nice place just down the street," he said.

"Let's go," I said.

We climbed into a rented van and went to the place Brick directed us to. It was one of those buffet places. I can guarantee you we picked them clean. And nobody recognized the four movie stars.

We returned to the plane an hour and a half later. Hubble saluted and walked to his Ford and drove off. We got back on board and flew out of JFK with Mike at the controls. The guys didn't waste time getting another card game started. Daniel picked us clean this time around. He gloated as he counted his money.

"Thanks for contributing to my retirement fund," he cackled.

"Provided you ever reach it," I said with an evil glint in my eyes.

Daniel laughed as he sat back. "Can I get a sandwich from the galley?"

"You just ate," I said.

"That was two hours ago," he said, heading for the galley.

I sighed as the guys broke up laughing and followed him.

When we arrived at Little Rock, Shiro had three Suburbans parked by the hangar and a crew of shooters to greet us. I nodded approval as we disembarked.

"Light luggage, we'll be back here in the morning to go to Denver. Shiro will leave before us with the Corsair and bring the Lear to the Denver airport. No way can I land the jet on the mountain," I announced.

That caused a few reactions. First to react was Hejiro.

"A World War 2 Corsair?" he asked eagerly.

"Yup. Got it a month ago," I said.

The smile spread across his face as his eyes took on a distant look. "I stole one during the war when I was assigned to the Pacific theatre. Boy could she fly. Got a medal for that and a promotion to Master Sergeant," he sighed.

"First chance you get, take it up," I said.

Mike was the next to react. "You own a mountain?"

"I'll brief him," Danny said.

Billy quickly crossed himself and said a prayer much to our amusement. The Yamane Brothers made themselves known. I had hired them sight unseen on Zeus's recommendation. They were Chinese identical twins, stood five feet tall. Both wore their long black hair in rattails and sported Dragon tattoos on the right side of their chest. They looked very muscular.

"You be Logan-san?" one asked me.

"Yup," I said.

"Zeus say you big bastard. He say right," the second twin said.

I smiled. "Only to those who piss me off."

The two teens grinned. "I Yan. He Tan."

"Nice to meet you guys. Let's get the show on the road," I said.

We got on the road and headed for Peckertown.

Zeus met us at the house. I smiled when I saw him. He waved at us and walked down the steps to the trucks.

"Good to see you guys," he said as we got out.

I shook his hand. "Nice to see you too. Got some new friends to introduce."

Daniel, Rupert, Tom, and Hugh lined up in front of the truck as Caleb drove into the yard with his wagon. I waited until Caleb joined us.

"Zeus, Caleb, this is Daniel Redrock, Rupert Grunt, Tom Fulton, and Hugh Mitchell from England. Guys, this big honky is Zeus Morgan and the teen next to him is Peckertown's second greatest Master, Caleb," I said, making the introductions.

Zeus snorted. "If I'm a honky, you be the ugliest white boy I've ever seen."

Harley roared in laughter at that. "That was a good one, Zeus!"

I had to grin. "Wait till he really gets going."

"Let's get inside," Zeus said.

We got inside and settled in except for Hugh. Daniel, Rupert, Tom, Hugh, Caleb, and I went into the den area and closed the door behind us to talk. Caleb took the floor and described to the four teens what the PTA (Peckertown Training Academy) was and how it worked. He held nothing back.

"Because of his celebrity status, he will be kept separate from the others and his training will be conducted by me and one other only. There is a cost, but I am told that you guys are doing a movie here next month so I believe we could work something out in return," he said. Caleb turned to Hugh. "You heard me describe the training and what I will do to teach you to be a good slave. You now need to decide if this is what you really want to do. I will come back for you in the morning. Give me your answer then."

He left the house and we went back into the living room. Harley had gone home, saying he'd be back later. Sammo informed me there was food in the house and the pool in back was covered over like ours and plenty warm.

"Sammo, barbeque. The rest of us shall kick back by the pool," I said.

That's exactly what we did.

***

Once again we paired off before going to bed. Shiro and Sammo headed for their room, while Daniel, Rupert, and Tom went to another. They sent Hugh to be my pleasure boy tonight. Sacha and Neil went to bed together. Hejiro and Danny shared a room that had a pair of full size beds in there. The Yamane Brothers crashed out in the hall, Yan at the stairs and Tan at the end of the hall. I settled down in bed when Hugh came out of the bathroom wearing his nightie. I felt my cock get hard at the sight of the boy in the long pink silk nightwear. He smiled as he spun around.

"Like what you see?" he asked seductively.

My cock got even harder and started twitching eagerly. "Come here, sweetie."

Hugh slipped into bed with me and I pulled him into my arms and kissed him. He sighed seductively and snuggled down into my arms. I started caressing his body, my hands slipping underneath the silk material to touch his smooth body. Hugh sighed and shivered from the erotic touches. I slipped his nightie up and over his head, taking it off him. Underneath the nightie he was wearing a white silk training bra and a white silk lace trimmed panties. My cock was drooling begging for attention. I laid him on his back and began to lick, suck, kiss, and touch him all over. Hugh moaned softly as I brushed the tips of my fingers over the hard nipples covered by the white silk bra. I reached underneath him and unhooked the bra clasp and lifted the silk away from his boyish breasts and saw the hard nipples. I licked and sucked at them for a few minutes and then moved down his delightful body, licking and kissing as I went. I massaged his hard boycock through the panties, making him moan louder. This little boy was hot.

I slipped my thumbs inside his panties and gently pulled them down his smooth legs. He spread his legs for me, revealing his round entry. I pushed his legs back to his chest as I slid off the bed. I pulled him to the edge of the bed and then put my face in his ass, licking and tongue fucking his fleshy gate. Hugh squealed with joy. He loved this and so was I. He tasted clean and I could smell the soap he had used in the shower before coming to my bed. I got back on the bed and pulled him over my lap and reached for the KY. I squeezed a bit on a finger and slowly penetrated him. He was so easy to penetrate it left no doubt in my mind he got fucked on a regular basis from his three masters. I worked his boy pussy until he took three fingers inside him comfortably.

"Mount me," I whispered.

Hugh quickly jumped up and straddled my hips. I held my cock steady as he pushed down on it. I felt my cockhead open his anus up and slide inside him. He let his head go back and he let out a long low sensuous moan. He kept moving down on my cock until he was firmly impaled on my eight inches. He wasn't going anywhere. Hugh started to ride my cock, moving up and down on it. I let him ride my cock for a few minutes, letting the pleasure build up.

I finally got to my point and I pulled him off my cock and rolled up a pillow and had him lie down on his stomach as I slid the pillow under his hips, making his pert butt stick out. I got behind him and slipped my cock back into his slick pussy and began fucking the boy earnestly. Hugh urged me on with all kinds of sexy talk (Daniel had trained him not to use profanity while being fucked) as I drilled his ass with my very hard eight inches. I could feel myself reaching the breaking point.

"Gonna cum in your ass, boy. Gonna fill you up with man cum," I hissed.

Hugh used his anal muscle to squeeze my cock as hard as he could while I ejaculated inside of him. I kept fucking him until I ran dry. Hugh sighed with pleasure as I filled his ass with my cum. After I pulled out of him, he wiped me off with a damp cloth and then himself. He put his panties, bra, and nightie back on and slipped into my arms.

"Good night, sweetie. Sleep well," I said before joining him in dreamtime.

Hugh was very subdued the next morning. I knew he was thinking about what he was to go through in the month he was going to be at the PTA, if he decided that's what he wanted to do. He didn't eat much, pushing his food around on his plate. Caleb arrived right at nine with a duffle bag in his hands. Daniel, Rupert, Tom, and I stood in the living room with Caleb and Hugh.

"I have a question," Hugh started.

"What is it?" Caleb asked.

"Will you allow me two safe words?" he asked.

Caleb smiled. "Of course. It is very important to have safe words. It's required at the school. What are they?"

"My slow word is Slytherin. I give you Slytherin as my slow word. My stop word is Snape. Snape is my Stop word," Hugh informed him.

Caleb smiled. "Very appropriate."

"I have decided to go and be trained by you to be a good slave to my masters," Hugh said. "I do this of my own free will."

"Are you sure of this?" Rupert asked.

"Very sure, Master Rupert," Hugh said.

Caleb nodded. "Strip!" he ordered.

Hugh stripped his clothes off and folded them neatly on the couch. He stood in the attention position as Caleb walked around him, inspecting him from head to toes. He noted the nylon collar around Hugh's neck.

"Does the slave have a harness?" Caleb asked Daniel.

Daniel showed Caleb the crude harness they had constructed for him.

"Caleb, put all new leather gear together for Hugh and put it on my tab," I said.

"You sure?" Caleb asked.

"Yes. The leather master did a hell of a job on the leather gear he made for my boys and me," I said. "Hugh should have top of the line."

Caleb nodded. "Done. I'll be back here in the morning with the trainers and slave that volunteered to train Hugh's Masters."

He reached for the duffle bag and opened it up. He pulled out chains, leather cuffs, a leather belt, a leather jock with a hole for a dildo, and a ball gag. The ball gag went in his mouth and buckled at the back of his head. The belt went on next. Wrist cuffs were put on him and then a short chain secured them to the belt. A medium sized dildo was snapped in place on the leather jock and Hugh was made to bend over. It was slowly pushed up into his ass and the leather jock snapped into place and adjusted. Leather cuffs went around his ankles and a short chain put in place between them. Another chain was run from the center of the ankle chain to the leather belt. Hugh was now properly restrained. We watched Caleb escort Hugh to the door where he stopped and pulled back a little. Caleb turned to see what the problem was. Hugh hobbled to Daniel and pressed his nose against Daniel's cheek. I suddenly understood.

"He's kissing you goodbye," I said.

Hugh nodded his head and then did the same for Rupert and Tom. Then Caleb walked him out the door and to the truck. He opened the back and placed Hugh in the back and secured him to the bench. The door closed and we could see Hugh's face through the bars. There was a bright glow in his eyes as the truck drove off.

"There he goes," I said. "When you get him back, he'll be so much better."

Daniel grinned. "I can't wait!"

I laughed as I led the way back into the house.

We went to the Peckertown airport the next morning to show Hejiro the Corsair. He got that dreamy look in his eyes once more as he looked at the plane. He ran his hands over the metal wings as he walked around the plane. It was like the clock had rolled back for him. He climbed up on the wing and looked inside. He got in the pilot's seat and looked at the board. Then he began to laugh. Shiro and I looked at each other. Had Hejiro flipped?

"Logan, only fate could make this happen," he said. "You own the plane I stole back in World War 2. I know this because I remember the little metal plate just above this gauge had a sequence of numbers and letters. This is the very plane I stole."

He climbed down and motioned for Shiro to climb up. "If you can pry up the top right corner of the metal panel on the floor just under the seat, you will find a little card."

Shiro climbed into the plane and started looking. He came back up a moment later giving his Grandfather a strange look. "I found a card. It looks like it's been here since 1945. It says pilot Onashi Hejiro, tenth squadron, 6 may 1945."

There are times I do believe in fate, and times I don't. This was one of the times I did.

Hejiro smiled once more and the distant look in his eyes told me he was there once more, reliving the moment. "She could move. You barely had to nudge the stick and she did what you wanted. She was fast and quick, turn on a dime and outrace anybody. I'll have to show you the pictures, commendation, and medal I got for pulling it off. Always did wonder what happened to her after I parked her on the aircraft carrier."

Shiro hopped down and hugged his Grandfather as the old man sighed. I patted the man on his shoulder and walked away to give him some privacy with Shiro. Anyone who could do that and get away with it was very cool in my book.

While we were waiting for Shiro and his grandfather to do the preflight check Caleb pulled up in the PTA's Jeep and got out with two other boys. At first glance I knew they were identical twins from their long black hair to their matching leathers.

"Logan, everybody, let me introduce two of Peckertown Training Academy's finest teachers, Bryan and Byron. They will be going with you to train you three to be good masters for Slave Hugh," he said staring at the three young English actors. "They will be bringing Slave Timmy to aid in the training but let me make one thing perfectly clear. If Bryan, Byron or Logan say no then you will not get Hugh as your personal slave. Do I make myself clear or do we end this now?"

"I agree Master Caleb," Daniel said.

"I agree Master Caleb," Rupert said.

"I agree Master Caleb," Tom said.

"Very good, Byron get Timmy from the car and prepare him for travel," Caleb said.

"Yes sir," Byron said.

Shiro flew out a half hour later. He'd meet us at Denver airport by the time we got there. We got aboard the Suburbans and rolled out of Peckertown. It would take us about an hour to get to Little Rock, another half hour to file the flight plans and fly out. I called Mike on his cell.

"Little Bo Beep here," Mike cracked.

I smiled. He was going to work out fine. "Black Sheep Fan Club," I replied.

I heard him chuckle on the other end. "Flight plan filed, plane is gassed, and galley is stocked, and there is a small selection of DVD movies on board."

"Good job," I said. "We'll be there in a bit."

The fifteen-year-old black kid driving nodded. He was a smaller copy of Zeus, lots of big hard muscle, wore a black do rag around his shaved head and sported three hoop earrings in his right ear. Word had it he drifted into town one night and ended a ten-man brawl at Cody's bar single handedly. The Yamane Brothers offered him a job and he took it. This was a kid I didn't want to mess with. On the other hand, I'd love the chance to bed him. I'm an equal opportunity boy lover. He answered to Duane.

We arrived at the plane on the nose. Mike was sitting on the bottom step holding an Uzi, and enjoying a cigar. When he saw us approach, he stood up and covered both trucks with the Uzi. The trucks pulled to a stop and Duane was the first out with his AK-47. I came out the passenger side.

"It's cool," Mike said as he climbed the stairs into the jet.

I slapped hands with Duane. "See ya in a month."

"We be ready bro," he growled.

We were in the air a half hour later, just five minutes behind schedule. We would have clear weather all the way. I sat back in my command chair and mentally reviewed our actions over the last two months and decided we had done well. I was ready for some down time and eagerly looked forward to it. Who knew what would happen next.

I sat in the Jacuzzi with my usual glass of sake and watched the teens playing in the pool. We had been pleasantly surprised to see Aaron already on site. Mugs had kept him in the hoosegow for a night for his own protection after the female population of Oakwood found out he was in town. The girls surrounded the police station and waited for him to come out. We had to fast rope in and get him out via the roof. I was glad I had gotten the Huey a while back. I hoped they wouldn't compromise our security. So I set up roving patrols to make sure of that. Aaron immediately called a guy he knew in Hollywood and asked if his stunt double could pop up in a few places around Hollywood. That little trick worked and Aaron was safe again. Amazing how that works so well.

I looked up so see Hejiro sitting so calmly in the garden area meditating. He was impressed with the setup here. The crates he had shipped here from Japan were in town waiting for us so we had retrieved them and brought them here. Hejiro didn't waste anytime setting up his room the way he wanted it. I made sure he would be comfortable in it. One of the things he did was to inspect the dojo Shiro had set up and he approved of it. He would be spending time in there teaching Sacha and Neil more of the martial arts. Everything was coming together nicely.

Before we left Caleb had given Daniel, Rupert, and Tom some books to read from the PTA school library. I peeked at the titles: A Beginner's Manual for the Master, S&M Techniques, Caring For Your Slave, and A Slave's Life. I made a note to go and check out the Little Leather Club's bookstore when we went back for the shoot. Guy hadn't shown up just yet due to some problems with the movie. Apparently some production people were giving him trouble. I hoped he'd iron it out before long.

I looked up to see the red headed slave coming towards me with a cold glass of sake. I grinned as he set it on the table next to me. He stood at attention as I looked him over. Like I said, he had red hair on his head cut down spiky short. Beautiful green eyes accented his good looks and he had a dazzling smile. I gently stroked his cock and it grew to a respectable six inches [15 cm] uncut. Timmy had no hair on his balls or cock, and his red pubic hair was cut down short and neatly trimmed.

"Do you wish some relief?" he asked, his voice sounding fresh and sweet.

"Yes Please. You can start by sucking my hard cock," I instructed him.

Timmy dropped to his knees and began sucking my cock. He had a very skillful mouth. I wondered if he had been taught how to suck cock, because he was doing it right. I sighed and closed my eyes as he deep throated my cock. I heard a noise next to me and I opened my eyes to see Billy slipping his cock inside the young boy's ass. I felt a sharp intake of breath on my cock as Timmy reacted to the cock invading his ass. Billy Golman pushed all the way in and then started fucking the boy.

"Are you sucking off Logan?" Billy asked as he fucked the boy.

I nodded as Timmy doubled his efforts on my cock. "Yes he is, and he's doing one hell of a job at it. This boy's a natural."

Bryan chuckled. "That's how he got in. Dropped to his knees right there in the middle of the street and blew Benjy good. Great public performance."

***

I had to laugh as Timmy worked my cock expertly. Billy was rabbit fucking the kid, his eyes closed, his head back, and starting his scales. Billy once remarked he had two sets of scales he liked to sing. One was reserved for sex, the other for the stage. I've heard both and Billy was starting his sexual scales.

"Oh baby! Nice tight ass! Hot ass! I love fucking this ass! I'm gonna cum!" Billy cried out, shoving his cock further into the red headed slave boy.

The thirteen year old hummed on my cock and I shivered as I came suddenly.

"Drink my cum boy!" I panted as I shot my load deep in his mouth.

Timmy sucked it all up and didn't miss a drop. I could see his ass flex as he milked Billy's cock for every drop of his cum as Billy ejaculated deep in the red head. Both of us sighed once we stopped cumming. Billy kissed Timmy's butt cheeks as I kissed the boy's face.

"You did a good job," I commented.

Timmy smiled. "Thank you Master."

Now I was feeling so much better and was looking forward to the month here at home. I patted the boy on the butt as he got up from his knees and headed for the kitchen to make dinner. I looked up to see Aaron and the other actors sitting in the Jacuzzi discussing the script. Apparently they had decided it needed some major reworking and were discussing possible changes and so on. Daniel stood up and stretched and I admired his teen body. Apparently he had started a workout program to keep up with the demands of the Harry Potter movies and it looked like he had been putting on some muscle. I hoped I'd get the chance to explore them later. I watched Harley and Aaron snuggling together and marveled at the power of love and how it could change people's lives like it had with them and so many other boys in Peckertown. I sincerely hoped it would continue to be the kind of place where dreams could happen. In my mind, it was a place well worth defending and fighting for, and it was up to men like myself to do it. I cannot fail in that mission. Ever.
