Nick's Family.
Chapter 1
" However, if you didn't have access to the system before... I doubt Chief Buffalo Butt is gonna let you into it now" Nick said pointing out the realization.
" No. You're right Nick." Judy said sounding disappointed.
" Wait..a...minute... Maybe we don't need the cams. I got something even better." Nick said.
" WHAT!?!" Judy said with smile and enthusiasm in her voice.
Nick with his chin hailed high and with confidence said "My family".
Judy felt a little uncomfortable about meeting a family of foxes. Not really sure how they will be. But most of worried that they might be underground cyber criminals or worse.
" Soooo Nick, where do they live?" Judy asked not wanting to beat around bush.
" They live in a secret area in the Rainforest District, where only I know where it is." Nick answering the curious bunny's question.
Their cable car stop and got off. Judy following the fox's lead, going wherever this secret place of Nick's is.
The two continued to walk for awhile. "You see carrots, there is something I should tell you about my parents." Nick said to Judy breaking the silence.
Upon hearing that Judy started thinking ' Oh no, what did I get myself into? I'm I way over my head? Will this be worst then Mr.Big? ' all these questions going on in Judy's little bunny head. Being a bunny, her emotions and insecurities sometimes cloud her judgement her logic and plain commonsense, just reacting without thinking first. That is one flaw she always tries to overcome. Easier said then done. Must be a bunny thing?
Nick explained to her without looking at her " Well, you see they can be a little loud and over bearing but they mean well. There like the greatest most nicest, kindest, and most unjudgmental creatures you will ever meet."
Hearing that gave Judy a little relieve. But realised he said creatures instead of foxes.
" Are they not foxes?" Judy asked.
Nick let out a sigh and answered " No there not, they took me in and treated me like family. "
Judy got a little confused and asked "What about you're mother?" Nick stopped in his tracks when he heard her question.
"Nick..." Judy spoke worrying about Nick, thanking that was a little too personal.
" Nick, you can tell me." Judy reassuring the fox.
Nick took a deep breath and finally spoke. " Well... I happened after the cub scouts incident. I came home with blood dripping down the sides of my face where they muzzled me and my uniform tore with tears in my eyes. I told her what happened and she was so mad. She wasn't going to let them get away with it. She took me in her car, we were going back to that cub scouts meeting. She really wanted to give them a piece of her mind. As we were driving..." Nick cut off.
Judy notice Nick wasn't letting her see his face but she knew this was tough for him to tell her. " Nick, you don't have to fin-"
Nick ignored her and continued. " And a ...drunk driver t-boned us. The car flipped over, I was knocked out. But when I woke, my head was hurting and covered in blood. Not my blood but...my mom's." Nick voice started choking up. " I tryed to get her out, but I couldn't move her. I smelled gas, she told me to save my self. I saw red and blue lights flashing. It was an ambulance and a police car helping the drunk driver in the other car. I ran over for help but they took one look at me, saw that I was a fox and didn't care to help. I begged them to help my mom but they just spit at me. I grabbed the arm of the tiger police officer begging him to save my mom. But he pushed me to the ground and said ' Fuck her, let the bitch die. One less fox in the world.' He gave the most cruel and most hateful face I'd ever seen. Still haunts my dreams to this day. The car exploded, I - I... Heard mom my mom burning alive screaming. They just left us there, they let my mother die, because she was a fox. I was alone, I had to survive any way I can. Nobody cared about a fox. I almost starved to death, I was about to give up and waited for death's embrace take me. But I woke up in a blanket, clean clothes and a bowl of soup. They saved Me, they home schooled me, showed me amazing things, they gave me a home and a reason to live, love and trust again."
Judy had tears pouring down her cheeks, never truly knowing how much he has suffered for just being a fox.
" Since being a fox, I couldn't get a job or more like wasn't allowed to. So I started hustling pawsicles to help my family. At least do what ever I can to help them for all they done for me. They have to stay in hiding, so I usually go out for them." Nick finished with.
Judy felt a pool of guilt, thinking he was just some common criminal, but now knowing he's only hustling to support his family.
Judy rushed over to him and embraced him with a hug, which was a surprise for the fox.
"What's this?" Nick asked out of innocent curiosity.
" Just thought you could use some comfort. Everyone can use a hug." Judy replied with a heart felt smile.
" Carrots I-"
Clink CRASH*
Judy and Nick quickly turned to see were the noise was coming from. Seeing a huge shadow coming closer.
" Carrots, what the Hell is that? " Nick asked Judy in a trembling tone.
" I don't know?" Judy answered with an equally trembling tone.
Judy was only armed with only her fox repellent which she was about to reach for. But stopped herself, not wanting Nick to see it. Making her feel more guilty for not putting it away. Just grabbed a near by stick.
The big, round shadow came closer and closer till They saw glowing eyes, and heavy breathing.
" THIS IS IT!!!" they both screamed as they charged at the shadow. Only to back down at the size of the shadow. They both let out a scream. Which caused the shadow to let out a very loud and high pitched scream, as it tripped backwards over some near by trashcans.
Nick and Judy ran over to towards it, to see what it is. It was trying to get a small bucket off it's head with no luck.
Judy ran up and kicked the off it's head.
When she looked down at what it was, she quickly looked up and looked back down with overwhelming confusion on her face.
"CLAWHAUSER!????!!" Judy shouted.
