AND HERE IT IS MY FIRST SHOT AT A FANFIC PLEASE CRITIQUE AND GIVE ME FEEDBACK! I'M SO EXCITED (and scared) to see what you think! I hope to write one maybe two more chapters. But I digress! Without further ado! Here is Disbelief!
Silence…
The world was spinning around me as I came to my senses. The effervescent smell of rust and rain water assaulted me as I took a meager breath of my surroundings sending my nose into a twitching frenzy. I tried to open my eyes only to realize I was blind folded. I lifted my paw to my eyes, but something hindered my movement. A few shakes and it dawned on me I was bound to something.
"A chair perhaps?"
I softly spoke aloud. I began to struggle against my bonds with all my strength. The binds were tight and only seemed to gain more strength as I fought. After a solid ten minutes, or at least what I imagined to be ten minutes, I sat back and relaxed. My bonds having become insufferably tight and making breathing a bit difficult. As I relaxed I noticed too my bonds relaxed with me. That was interesting. I remember being tied like this during one of me and Nick's more playful night's bu-.
*gasp*
A soft oh so smug chuckle could be heard in front of me. My ears shot up and dialed into the noise to further identify what creature made the sound. All creatures have a tell. Something that lets you in on a secret only they know about them to some extent. All except for that one little fennec fox friend of Nick's whose voice betrayed any source of reason for his size.
The smug chuckle snapped me from my thoughts as I realized it was standing right next to me. The presence was familiar… It loomed over me but not so in an oppressive sort of way. But a familiar one. I realized my body had relaxed. A tremendous wonderment and fear set in! Who was this creature?! Why did he make me feel so comfortable by him standing next to me? Why did his musky sent that filled my nostrils suddenly send me from fear to-
"No… Please God! No!"
Tears began to pour down my muzzle. My ears lost all life they had and unceremoniously flopped behind me, hitting the chair I was oh so lovingly bound to. My nose ceased its incessant twitching upon realization of who this creature was to me. The creature's padded paw gently wiped a tear from my muzzle, grasped me by the scruff of my neck and tugged my head back. What came next only served to destroy me more. The creatures long snout started from the lowest V cut in my police issued shirt and dragged his nose all the way up to my throat. Placing a light lick directly onto my jugular. Tears torrented down my muzzle. Only one mammal had ever done this to me. He had just willingly done so in order to confirm to me in my blinded state exactly who he was.
"Ah… You smell wonderful as ever Carrots."
His voice, that smug smirk I could feel radiating from his face, and the most damning evidence being the nickname. Whom no one else ever referred to me as…
"Please… Tell me this is a joke." I begged, tears profusely wetting the blind fold, forming dark spots where my eyes were. "Please tell me you're not involved in this… Please… Nick?"
Silence once again…
It ran on for what felt like an eternity. Waiting for this nightmare to end. For me to wake up in his arms like all those other nights. To feel his body against my back, as it pinned me down and oh so lovingly took me as his. I begged God above to wake me, to set me free from this torment.
*Cha-Chk*
The blood in my veins froze immediately. I knew that sound, from the multiple times at the firing range. Loading and readying the firearm again and again…
Cool steel pressed against my forehead as another chuckle escaped my beloved's muzzle.
"You just don't know when to back off do you Carrots? All the times I tried to dissuade you from a clue and you consistently pressed forward." another chuckle and a swishing sound which I could only imagine was his head shaking from left to right.
"You don't know how deep you've gone Carrots and why they can no longer allow you to live."
I wanted to speak but my voice was gone. Too broken by the idea that the mammal who I had loved for 3 years, gave my heart, my soul, my trust… my virginity… Everything that was me… To my soon to be murderer.
The sensation of a light tug on my ears brought me out of my shock once again. The cool of the gun pressing down on just below the tips of my ears.
"I've always imagined what earrings looked like on you fluff." he leaned down grazing his ears upon mine I could feel his sickening muzzle part into a smile that raged the disgust and hatred throughout my body as he whispered to me. "Best acting skills Judy."
"Wha-" I barely whispered before the loud bang filled me ears near shattering my ear drums from how strong my sense of hearing was. Violent ringing roaring through my head almost numbed the searing pain that was my ears being pierced by the lone bullet. A long shrill scream ripped its way from my throat as I flung my head back trying to free my sensitive ears from the torment. I felt the blood dribbling down the tips of my ears as they laid flat against my back. Moving them only lanced more pain through them. I tried to catch my breath as more tears ran rivers down my muzzle dampening my shirt. How could he do this to me?! He told me he loved me! He made me believe he was capable of being more than just an untrustworthy fox…
A gentle cooing shushing sound filled my ears as his padded paws stroked them ever so gently. I yanked my head away from him as hard as I could. Only for him to roughly grab my ears right below my new, unwanted, piercings and yank them back forcing my head painfully against the back of the chair. Sudden weight clamped itself to my ears through the new holes. The loops hanging on the raw bleeding flesh drawing more pain through my head. His paws gently caressed my face as he pulled the blindfold from my eyes. Indiscriminate yelling could be heard from the direction he came. I glanced down long enough to see belleweather jumping up and down demanding he finish it. He looks back at belleweather and tells her in a smug a way as possible.
"Don't get your fleece in a bunch Smellweather. You gotta let them know how much you're gonna miss them…"
His smug grin only seemed to become deeper at the obscenities the Mayor began shouting as he stepped back from me and produced a small tube of mints. He tapped on the tube until a small round mint fell into his paws. He popped one and chewed it throughly, licking his lips more than necessary, swallowed, then blew into his cupped paws to sniff. "WHEW! Can't kiss you then kill you with this breath! One more should do it…" he tapped the tube and leveled a stare with me catching my attention with the sudden change in expression. I looked into his eyes deeply for presumably the last time. Then he mouthed a sentence he'd said a few moments before…
*Best acting skills Judy*
A look into his hand as he tapped the tube produced a different shaped mint. Looking a little harder I realized it wasn't a mint at all it was a pill! I knew it! I knew he couldn't betray me! A smile tried to form but was quickly snuffed out when I remembered his words. Ok got it! Best acting skills! I quickly remembered how it felt thinking he was going to betray me and the tears came running back at full speed. He popped the pill into his mouth and made a show again of pretending to chew it and licking his lips before blowing into his paws again. He took a sniff and made a face showing deep thought before smiling.
"Much better."
The cocking of the gun drew my attention back to his paws where he then leveled the gun with my abdomen directly above my liver. For a bunny of my size this short was fatal within seconds of obtaining the wound. As the amount of blood being miniscule for us smaller mammals and the speed at which our hearts pumped we would be drained relatively quickly, resulting in a fast death.
His left paw once again roughly grabbed my ears as he brought his face directly in front of my own. Licking his lips slowly flashing the pill in his mouth. Staring deeply into my eyes.
I consent without a word.
He pulls my head forward and kisses me roughly. I pour my subpar acting skills into it and fight with all my might as I pretend not to relish in the flavor of his mouth. His long canine tongue dominates me without equal. It's everything I can do to suppress the moan struggling to be set free. Suddenly I feel the pill slide into my throat. Using the saliva built up from the passion I swallow the pill. During the ordeal he managed to slide something up my shirt. I was so busy wrapped up in the ordeal I completely forgot about the gun. The first trigger pull rings throughout the room. The thing he slid under my shirt bursts and I feel a profuse liquid run down my clothes. The shock of it along with the burnt skin forces me to slowly look down. Nick quickly pulls a bag of blood from under my shirt and slides it into a plastic bag hidden underneath his dress pants in one fluid motion reminiscent of his hustler days. I slowly look back up, the shock clear on my face, as the tears run once again.
"You… You shot me…"
I stated the disbelief, even though I know its fake but the pain I feel is real. Suddenly a fierce drowsiness overtakes me and claws at my ability to stay conscious. I sway forward as my head falls into his chest, my breathing rapidly slowing to a crawl. He looks down as I slowly slide into the approaching oblivion unaware of what will happen to me next. All I know… is that I trust him. The smug look of a job well done latches onto his face. Spots over take my vision as all finally fades to black.
