The Trials of Youth
Alright this commission was certainly a lot of fun. It was given to me by RobTheBunny about his character and KaloTheSkunk. This story is mostly clean but tagged adult for a short masturbation scene. Instead of being a sexual based story, it's entirely based off friendship and a slow building romance. It was very fun to do and I even wrote a lot of this one on actual pen and paper. It really helped with the whole process, especially doing some of the writing in parks and other on scene locations.
I really hope you all enjoy it, it was a pleasure to work on :) And who knows, maybe there'll be more to come.
All characters
depicted in this work are purely fictional and over the age of 18. Any
situation is meant as parody and does not represent any child, living or
otherwise.

Kalo
let out a long, comfortable sigh as the fresh spring wind tickled his fur, the
skunk adjusting his glasses as he looked up at the warming sun. He had decided
to take one of his usual strolls, enjoying the sights and sounds of nature as
he cleared his head. He felt at peace with the world as he immersed itself in
its rejuvenating season, taking a quick trek over to the park to keep the good
feeling going. He walked along the beautiful tree lines when he arrived at the
park, watching as the leaves would rustle with the gentle wind.
Overall
his Zen was not too disturbed until he suddenly heard the faintest sound of
crying. He couldn't help but drawn to the noise as curiosity arose in him,
especially when he began to tell the voice belonged to a younger critter. He
stepped slowly towards the figure when he was finally in view, the young rabbit
covering his face with his paws as he sobbed away. "H-hey," Kalo said calmly as
he stepped a little closer, "Is everything ok?" When the rabbit looked up Kalo
could tell he must have only been a few years younger than him, the cute
bunny's lip quivering as he scratched awkwardly at his mahogany red hair.
"Uh,
umm, I-I'm fine," the rabbit lied so obviously, still sniffling, "J-just umm..."
"Hey
you don't have to tell me if you don't want to," the skunk said gently, setting
himself down on the park bench next to the bunny as he took a spare Kleenex
from his pocket, "Looks like you may need one of these."
"Th-thanks,"
the bunny said in his washy tone, wiping his eyes a little before blowing his
nose, "Wh-what's your name?"
"Kalo,"
the skunk said with a smile, instinctually rubbing the bunny's back for the
sake of comfort, "What's yours?"
"Rob,"
the rabbit said, giving a weak little smile from the skunk's gentle touch, "Umm
K-Kalo, why are you being so nice to me?"
"What
do you mean?" the skunk asked curiously in response to the boy's strange
statement.
"Well
you see," the bunny began, "No one's ever really been nice to me, unless they
wanted something from me... is there something you wanted from me?"
"What?
No, I just couldn't leave you all by yourself crying, what sort of guy would I
be if I did that?"
The
bunny looked a little confused as he shuffled his legs back and forth anxiously
on the bench, "I don't know, I just... it's just, everyone has always been so
mean to me, and you seem... so nice Kalo."
The
skunk blushed a little as he was given such a nice complement, scratching the
back of his head as he said, "Well, I try... you umm, you sound like you could
use someone to talk to... do you want an ear to listen Rob?"
The
bunny was unsure at first, having just met this new fur, but eventually decided
to nod, smiling gently to the skunk, "Yeah, I-I would." The bunny scooched a
bit closer to the skunk as he began to tell him about his troubles, regaling past
memories of lost friendships and bullying, the rabbit seemingly letting go of
countless stored up tension. After the rabbit was done his tales he broke down
again, clutching to the skunk suddenly in a tear filled hug. "I'm sorry," he
sobbed as he squeezed the skunk, "It's just, I feel like I can trust you, and
you're so kind..."
Kalo
squeezed the rabbit back as he whispered to him gently, "Shh, it's alright Rob,
I'm glad you trust me." He pat the boy's back as he let him regain his
composure, eyes closing as he felt another nice breeze travel up from the grass
into his face. As time went on, the sun began to crawl down over the horizon,
Kalo realizing just how long the pair had sat in the park together. "Rob," the
skunk said finally, scooting up a bit, "It's getting pretty late, I should
probably take you home."
The
rabbit looked suddenly disheartened, but nodded anyways, getting to his feet,
"Yeah, I guess I should start heading home before Vicky has a heart attack."
The
two started the trek back to the rabbit's home, still chatting away as they
moved along. Kalo's spirits remained rather bright, but he couldn't help but
notice that his companion seemed rather down. "Is everything ok Robbie?" the
skunk asked, trying to cheer him up with a little pet name.
"Oh,
I just really don't like my babysitter," the rabbit grumbled, looking to the
pavement a she walked, "She's really mean to me."
The
skunk rubbed his friend's back as they walked along, noticing a dark expression
on the bunny's face as they were clearly almost at his house, "what kind of mean?"
"There
you are you little shit!" a voice suddenly growled nearby. Kalo's head
swivelled over o the direction of the voice, Rob cowering and looking away,
knowing he had reached the inevitable outcome of his actions. "Where the hell
has he been?!" the tabby cat harped at Kalo.
"He
was at the park..." the skunk replied, a little dumbfounded at the sudden
outbursts of the angry babysitter.
"Well
what was he doing there so late?!" she growled, "If his parents had come home
they would have killed me!"
"I-I'm
sorry Vicky," Rob whimpered in his hunched cowardice, "I-I didn't mean to worry
you, I just w-wanted to go outside and-"
"Oh
please!" the feline spat, "You don't even have any friend to go outside with!"
"Yes
I do!" the rabbit boomed out triumphantly, clutching the skunk tightly, "Kalo
is my friend, and I went to go see him!"
The
older female seemed sort of taken back from the rabbit's out of character
defiance, shaking her head as she rethought her argument, "Ok... and did you ask
me if you could go to the park?"
"Well,"
the rabbit's ears drooped back down, "I, umm, guess not."
"You
know what," the cat said with a shake of her head, "Just go to your room, I'll
let your parents deal with you when they get home!"
The
rabbit followed his superior's instructions, looking very sad as he walked
away, smiling weakly to the skunk, "Goodbye Kalo, it was really nice meeting
you."
"Good-"
the door slammed shut before he could finish, "-bye..." Kalo sighed to himself as
he felt helpless to better the rabbit's situation, turning to start his own
walk home.
...
The
following day Kalo had returned to the rabbit's home, this time biking over
instead of walking. He felt a great deal of anxiety as he knocked on the
rabbit's door, assuming the bitter babysitter would be the one to answer. Much
to his pleasant surprise, a seemingly sweet rabbit answered the door,
presumably the boy's mother. After a quick exchange of pleasantries, Rob came
bounding out of the backyard with a bike and helmet, clearly too excited at the
idea of Kalo's activity to wait.
"Kalo
you came back!" the bunny nearly cried in happiness, pushing out the kickstand
of his bike so he could give the skunk a big hug, "How did you know I love
biking."
The
skunk shrugged as he smiled gently to the boy, "Just a hunch, you ran to the
park when you were upset so... I got the feeling you liked outdoor activities,
was just lucky that you also already owned a bike."
Rob
nodded furiously before nuzzling the skunk's side, "Well you guess right!" He
quickly hopped onto his bike and gave it a quick test peddle, feeling quite
satisfied with the quick ride up and down his driveway, "Ok Kalo, where did you
wanna go?"
The
skunk grinned as he got onto his own bike, "I have just the place in mind!"
...
Their
journey seemed faster than it actually had been as Kalo led his new friend
along the familiar paths, the skunk rather impressed with how easily the
younger cub could keep up.
Rob
found himself peaking at the skunk's butt a few times, the slight firmness of
it and the wind running through his tail making the boy feel quitter funny. He
quickly shook the thoughts away though as they confused him, making him feel a
little uncomfortable. Otherwise the bike ride had proven to be tons of fun, and
the rabbit was more than excited when they reached the destination that Kalo
had had in mind.
It
was the most magnificent park Rob had ever seen. Inside it was three areas as
big as the park where Rob lived, left alone for wildlife to grow in. There were
two rather large playgrounds, a public swimming pool, a basketball court,
tennis court and a hall that could be rented out for special events. "This is
my favourite park," Kalo said to his friend as they set their bikes up gently
by the first playground, "There's a little bit of everything here."
"It
looks wonderful!" Rob said with his eyes wide and sparkly, "I'm so excited
Kalo, how do you know me so well already?"
The
skunk shrugged again as he giggled gently, "I don't know Rob, it just feels
like I've known you for a long time, weird right?"
The
rabbit shook his head as he hugged Kalo, feeling that funny feeling again, "Not
weird Kalo... it's nice."
"So,"
Kalo said with a grin, "What do you wanna do first?"
Rob
patted his feet excitedly on the ground as he looked around the vibrant display
of the rather impressive park, "I know, the swings!"
"Ok!"
the skunk replied brightly, scampering over with his friend over to the nearby
swing set. The chains on them went up fairly high, and it didn't take too much
effort to get some air once the two kicked off from the sandy pit under them.
"Betcha I can go higher!" Kalo called out to the rabbit playfully, swinging
hard to gain as much momentum as possible.
"You're
on!" Rob cheered as he kicked his little feet as hard as he could, swinging
higher and higher into the air. For a moment it looked like he was about to win
the competition, but only managed to roughly tie with Kalo a couple of times,
the slightly older boy gaining a natural advantage.
"Don't
worry too much," Kalo said before the bunny even had time to pout, "My old
house used to have a swing set in the back backyard, so..." he gave the bunny a
playful wink, "You were doomed from the start!"
A
moment later the rabbit hopped off the swing, stretching his legs back out,
"Eh, my legs were getting tired anyways, how about we take a quick walk around
that little forest area?"
Kalo
smiled as he hopped off his own swing, "That sounds like a great idea!"
...
Days
past and the two had become closer friends than ever, choosing to share each
other's company with as many activities as possible. After two weeks of a
quickly growing bond, the two found themselves back at their favourite park,
splashing around in the cool waters of the outdoor pool. The two seemed to be
having a vigorous splash war in the afternoon sun, the bunny letting out the
loudest laughs as Kalo had begun tickling his belly. "Ah, no fair!" the rabbit
howled as he kicked and splashed.
"All's
fair in love and war!" the skunk roared as he kept up the tickling assault, an
odd feeling stirring in Rob. He knew his friend's statement was nothing more
than a saying, but something about the word love
made him feel all funny like before.
His
cheeks reddened a little with a blush as he paddled away with his arms,
crossing his legs as he felt his little member get stiff. "W-we should probably
get going," the rabbit said as he tried to hide his reaction to the skunk's
fingers, "Vicky will be pissed if I'm home late again!"
"Oh
yes her..." Kalo muttered in a cranky tone, hopping out of the pool and stepping
over to his towel, "Probably a good idea Robbie, we can have another race
home!"
"Yeah!"
the rabbit said with sudden excitement, shooing away his negative thoughts for
the moment.
...
Rob
gave Kalo a very disheartened wave goodbye when he finally arrived back to his
home, the skunk feeling rather melancholy as he watched his new friend mentally
prepare for what would likely be stressful. Inside the rabbit slowly stepped
inside, his eyes clenching tightly closed as he heard the all too familiar
screech of his cubsitter's voice, "Late again? What the hell?!"
"I-I'm
sorry," Rob began to whimper out as he shrivelled down in front of the cat, the
angry feline ready to swat.
She
raised her paw as anger seemed to rise up in her, letting one heavy smack
collide across the rabbit's cheek, "Enough of your excuses, you are just a
spoiled brat!"
"Th-that
hurt!" the rabbit cried as he rubbed the now sore spot of his cheek, tears
filling his eyes as he back away.
"You're
lucky that's all I did," Vicky hissed as her hair stood on end, "Your parents
should have started disciplining you a long time ago!" She squeezed her paws
together as if to scream, but suddenly stopped as she had the feeling she was
being watched, the cat turning to look over anxiously at the skunk standing in
the doorway. Kalo had entered shortly after his friend, wanting to make sure
everything would be alright. He had inadvertently caught the bad babysitter red
handed and intended on telling the boy's parent's everything. "Wait, it's not
what it looks like, kid, wait!" Vicky pleaded, trying to rush towards the
skunk, but failing to stop him in time.
"Shit!"
the cat growled as she paced the hall anxiously, looking at the rabbit with a
glare, "I swear to god kid, if I get in shit for this!"
"What
the hell is going on here?" an older voice called out as a larger male rabbit
stepped inside, seeing his boy cowered in the corner as Vicky raised her paw
above him. Little did Vicky and Rob know but Kalo had been secretly pleading
with the boy's parents about the current situation, eventually concerning the
boy's father enough to sneak home early one day. Sure enough the decision had
proven to be the right one, the boy's father fighting back a rage as he saw
what his son had been forced to go through.
"Please
Mr. Myer, I can explain, I promise this all just a big misu-"
"Get
out." The older rabbit said plainly at first, going to his son to pick him up, "I
said get out Vicky, you're fired!" At first the cat wanted to stay and defend
her point, but quickly realized losing a part time job was better punishment
than the boy's father deciding to go further. She nodded silently as she
grabbed her things, leaving the house awkwardly in defeat. "I am so sorry son,"
the rabbit said as he hugged his sobbing cub, "I'll never let that horrible
girl hurt you again!"
"D-dad,"
the smaller bunny sniffled, "Can Kalo stay here tonight?"
His
father nodded as he clutched his son tightly, wanting to do something more to
make it up to his son, "Sure kiddo, your friend can sleep over tonight if his
folks let him."
...
Rob's
father was left with a bit of a dilemma now that he had fired the terrible
sitter. He still had to leave for work again that night and would be unable to
watch his son. It took a bit of convincing but considering how much of his
trust the skunk had gained in such a short time, he reluctantly agreed to let
Kalo watch over Rob that night.
The
two decided that video games would be a fun activity to start off with, and
each started battling through various multiplayer challenges. Around nine Rob's
father finally departed giving the cubs some last minute advice, "Don't
stay up too late, love you Rob!"
"Love
you too dad!" the rabbit called back, grinning to his best friend. He
reached over as soon as that round was done, clutching the skunk in a big, warm
hug. "Thank you for saving me from that wretched witch!" he said with
much enthusiasm.
"Heh,
no problem Robbie, I'm just so sorry she hurt you." The skunk rubbed the
bunny's back with his paws, digging his claws in just deep enough to be
comfortable.
Rob
sighed as he nuzzled into Kalo, feeling safe as could be in his arms. He
blushed suddenly as his little member stiffened again, the rabbit still not
quite sure what that meant. "Hey, it's alright Kalo, I'm just glad you're
here with me now."
"Don't
worry yourself," Kalo giggled as he rubbed his nose against Rob's, "I
ain't going anywhere silly." Rob nodded as he looked away, wanting to believe
Kalo's words, but deep down knowing that happiness never seemed to quite work
out for him.
...
Rob
sighed as he lay in the warm water of his bath, letting the soapy water soak
into his fur. He rubbed the bubbly solution over his arms, mumbling to himself
as he got nice and comfortable. He felt the slightest tinge of dread in his
heart as he thought about his best friend, trying not to shed a few tears as he
realized just how attached he had grown to Kalo. He feared the very thought of
losing the skunk, begging in his mind that he would stay and not just be
another staining statistic.
His
paws roamed over his legs, making sure they were good and clean. They stopped
however at his waist, roaming over his crotch as he noticed that he was once
again hard. He moved his paw over his stiff little member, slowly rubbing it
until he felt good. His eyes closed as he let out a little whimper, his legs
shaking in the tub as he thought about the skunk he had grown so attached to.
His grip tightened as the paw slid up and down, the bunny's breath tightening
as the peculiar motion seemed to make him feel even funnier.
He
kept up the motion until it all became too much for him, the rabbit stopping
just as soon as the feeling became mildly overwhelming. He poked the slit on
his tip when he saw a little drip of liquid on the end, moving it up closer to
his eyes to get a better look at it. He wasn't sure what it was or how he made
it, but the solution seemed to be colorless and sticky. He decided to stop
touching himself in that are soon after, not quite sure he was comfortable with
the feeling or the fact that his best friend made him feel it.
...
Rob
hopped into the bed with Kalo after they had both changed into their jammies,
the skunk having made a quick trip home before Rob's father had departed. The
two snuggled together nice and close as they waited for slumber to descend upon
them, Rob blushing as he would occasionally get the strange stiffy. "I'm glad
you're here" the rabbit said gently to Kalo, rubbing his cheek against the
skunk's as he breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm
glad I'm here too," the skunk said as he smiled at the adorable young rabbit, "My
favourite place to be is around you Robbie."
Rob
smiled weakly as he poked two of his fingers together, a bashful look on his
face as he whispered out, "You p-promise to never leave me right?"
The
skunk looked back a little confused as he thought over the words his friend had
just used, "Yeah of course, why would you think I'd ever leave?"
Rob
shrugged as he pulled away, trying to hide a couple tears from the skunk, "Oh...
no reason."
Kalo
decided not to push the issue, and the two young boys slowly drifted off to
sleep. Rob continued to stir throughout the night, tossing and turning as he
fought with dream fueled restlessness. Eventually the rabbit woke up with a
little squeak, his eyes full of tears as sweat poured from his forehead. The
skunk had woken from the little shriek that Rob had made and he turned over to
look his friend in the eye, "Are you ok Robbie?"
The
rabbit shook his head as he looked at the skunk with tear filled eyes, "I had a
really bad dream."
"What
did you dream about?" the skunk asked, his paw rubbing the rabbit's back
gently.
The
small lapine boy was silent, showing just how powerful the nightmares were. "I...
dreamt I had lost you" Robert lied, not wanting to share the true nature of his
dark, painful dreams. The black figures were still fresh in his memory as he
began to sob into Kalo's chest. "Please don't leave me Kalo!" the rabbit cried
as he nuzzled the boy over and over.
"I
keep telling you Robert, I'll never leave you!" Kalo said with a bit of a
triumphant tone in his voice, gripping the boy by the cheek's as he looked into
his eyes, tearing a bit himself, "I re-really like you!"
"Wh-what
do you mean?" the rabbit asked, dumbfounded as he shook a little.
"I
like like you..."
Rob's
lips quivered as he tried to find the right words to reply with, but instead
pushed forward, pressing his lips to Kalo's as he gave the skunk a long,
passionate kiss. The two boys weren't sure exactly what they were doing, but it
still managed to be long and sensual. At that moment there was no thought of consequences,
no tomorrow, no other factors but how they felt about each other.
When
the kiss finally broke Rob whispered back to his friend, "Kalo, I like you too,
I've felt funny around you since we first met at the park... but I was scared to
admit it, because we're both, and, and I-"
"Shh,"
Kalo whispered, hushing the boy as he placed a single finger onto his lips, "All
that matters is we both feel it." Rob was stunned at just how poignant and beautiful
the other boy's words were, closing his eyes as their lips met again for another
kiss. The two clutched each other tighter than ever before, feeling each other's
hearts race as they finally admitted what they had known all along. Rob felt
his member stiffen again, but for once it didn't bother him. Like his heart, it
just felt oddly... right.
