The way you are

Nick was acting strange lately. For no apparent reason, he became a cold person. He was not kind and gentle. He gradually became an apathetic person. He didn't react to anything, even the things that made him happy. After a few days, I no longer put up with this situation. He became a totally different person that I loved. That Nick kind, warm and caring. Soon after have dinner, I had to ask.

"Nick, why are you different in the last days?" I asked with some concern.

"You forgot what was imposed by the city hall?" He said, seriously, looking at me as I went to the couch where he was.

"I don't understand. What was imposed? "I do not remember anything.

"Judy, how do not you?" He said, putting his paw on his neck. That's when I saw a black necklace.

"I do not understand. When did this happen? "I said, sitting beside him, and embracing.

"After Bellwhether fall, the animals still were afraid of predators, so they elected a mayor who would impose it." He said sadly.

"That's horrible." I said, as she cried and hugged him at the same time. "I want you back."

"I know, but I can not do anything." He said hugging me back.

Judy then looks at the television and see a report on the launch of a new necklace that increases intensity of the shock, which makes cries even more embracing and more stronger Nick.


Judy suddenly wakes up in her room. Scared, she looks around and sees that it is in an apartment, a little bigger than her old one. She realizes that she is in a double bed and beside her Nick is sleeping peacefully. She on the nightstand him and see that have no shock collar or something like that. On one wall of the room she sees a poster of a candidate for mayor that she and Nick voted, a shrew nephew of Mr. Big. He was a candidate who promised, among other things, achieve a healthy pact between predators and prey, by agreement in writing that there was no longer any attack and any incident would be properly investigated, what has happened since so. After the Bellwheter fall, there were no attacks of predators.

So Judy looks at Nick again and see him sleeping peacefully. "He's so sweet and gentle." She thought. She looks in his neck if had some kind of necklace. And It had nothing. He was a free fox. She also realize they were asleep spooning. Judy then turned to him and hugged him. He responded with a simple smile. That was enough for Judy know that he felt her embrace. She felt a gentle kiss on her head.

"He's still the Nick I met and fell in love. He remains gentle and kind to me. I do not know what I would do if he was different." Judy thought, before returning to sleep.

What she did not know is that he's always been that way and the only animal that wanted to see beyond the stereotype of foxes was her. Because of it, he can show how he really was and is.

She freed him from being just a stereotype.


Just a cute story about the best couple ever :3 With this story I hope I made it clear why I will always hate the tame collars. When a predator uses, he/she can't be oneself, he/she can feel anything, even good feelings. So I will always be against the idea of tame collars. I hope you have enjoyed this story. Review if you liked!
