LITO: Infinity Rising

Chapter 1: Planning

Now, remember how Judy said she didn't need a wedding in order to be happy with Silver?

Try telling that to the plethora of friends, family and coworkers who heard the news that the two

were engaged. Everybody had idea after another after another that Judy and Silver were more

overwhelmed sorting everybody's ideas in their Opinions Box (which was an old family shoebox

Bonnie and Stu let the couple borrow for sorting out ideas) than actually planning the wedding.

"Hmmm, let's see. I know that we could ask Gazelle to put on a concert since she became our

friend. At least everyone's in agreeance about that." Judy explained, sorting a small stack of the

hundreds of letters. Silver turned to Judy after placing another stack in the box. "Well, here's the

thing Judy. I love listening to Gazelle, but what would you think of adding a few extra singers?

You know, to add some more variety to our big dance?" Judy smiled approvingly at the idea.

"That sounds like a great idea Silver. How about you start finding a few ideas you like in the pile

and I'll ask Gazelle to see if she'll be up for it." Silver agreed then continued to sort letters.

Meanwhile… in Gazelle's mansion…

"Oh yes of course. I'll be more than happy to perform at the wedding." Gazelle joyfully

responded after hearing about Silver and Judy's engagement. "And I'm more than happy to

reference some friends of mine." she said, eager to go through her personal list of friends she

made over her life in Zootopia. Let's see; Meghan Gator, Luke Flyan, Jonathan Bruin, Howllyn

and for the band for all of that, we could have…" "Furry Force 5?" Judy interrupted on the other

end of the phone conversation. Gazelle laughed and recollected the fun memory of meeting KZ,

Nick, Tails, Sonic and Justin Timberwolf to make up a group called Furry Force 5. Although she

was disappointed in the events of Justin turning evil, she was less concerned about it now that

she had some great, new and genuine best friends. "Well, I was actually thinking of Trend

Collection. But that might be a fun idea. Especially with Justin gone, there would actually be five

of us." "Well why not?" Judy asked. "Silver's already sent some invitations to his Mobian pals so

Sonic can definitely be there. Also KZ raps, Nick plays some good guitar and Tails is actually

pretty good at the keyboard." Gazelle let the second set of information sink to the back-burner of

her mind as the first few words she heard from Judy surface. Her feelings for the blue hedgehog

had grown over the past year since he first visited and just like Sonic, although she enjoyed their

friendship for what it currently was, she wished that they were more than friends. Most of the

time, average citizens in Zootopia had somewhat of a celebrity crush on Gazelle; when Sonic

came, it was the celebrity who had the crush on the average citizen. She first seen Sonic's

selflessness when he ferociously fought off some evil ninja wolves to save everybody at her

concert. Then just like a snowball, other aspects of his personality started to become noticeable

with each time passing. From his bold confidence to his unwavering loyalty, she gradually

started to become attracted to the hedgehog of Mobius. But like most times, she never realized

how much she really loved him until it was (nearly) gone. She struggled with trying to gain a

visiting Justin's approval and making sure to keep her promise to help her new friend.

Ultimately, Justin convinced her it would be better for Gazelle to let Sonic wander off on his own

to find more help. Choosing concern about gaining her old friend's respect over keeping a

promise that she made damaged her soul as she felt like she let her heart be shattered into a

million pieces. Never to be put together again. But instead of running from the dilemma, she

sought help from her old friend, psychologist Molly Mongoose, who convinced her to submit her

feelings and not care about what anyone else thought. After apologizing to Sonic, the two did

end up confessing their love for one another. However, Sonic elected to head back to Mobius to

resume his world-traveling, adventuring, and hero-work. Gazelle understood her friend's choice

when he made it. Looking back however, she wished that she could have offered to go with

Sonic to Mobius. Who knew? Perhaps their relationship could have actually been stronger than

what it was. She would have definitely been up for going on adventures of any kind, but

especially with her special Mobian friend. The one, who she wanted to see more than anyone.

"Gazelle, are you there?!" Judy asked over the phone, snapping Gazelle out of her

memory-filled trace. "Oh, sorry Judy," Gazelle awkwardly said, "I think that Furry Force 5 would

be awesome assuming Sonic and Tails actually show up." Judy laughed. "Yeah, then that way,

you two could actually profess your feelings to each other without having to blank out on a

certain friend's phone call." Gazelle's cheeks turned sunset red in embarrassment because she

zoned out. Gazelle already did confess her feelings to Sonic, but when it was just the two of

them. She didn't have the time to take any further steps in their friendship.

But Judy did have a point. Maybe she could use the time her friend was visiting to discuss her

possibly moving to Mobius, choosing whether or not to be something more and to

brainstorm some potential date ideas for the next time the two would meet. "Thank you Judy, I'll

do that when Sonic gets here. Call me if you need any more help, ok amiga?" "Ok" Judy replied.

"And again, thank you for all your help." "No problem, see you then." Gazelle responded as she

hung up and sorted through a large collection of dresses to see which one would be the best to

wear to the wedding.

Well guys, I hope you enjoy this chapter. My goal with this and all of my stories is to make

positive, exciting and amazing stories that people can learn from to apply it to their lives.

Anyhow, some of you may have also noticed that I have spoofed the singer names, just like in

LITO. So, here

we go with that (and search them on Youtube if you want.) Meghan Gator = Meghan Trainor,

Luke Flyan = Luke Bryan, Jonathan Bruin = Jonathan Thulin, Howllyn = Hollyn, Furry Force Five

(previously spoofed in LITO) = Family Force 5, KZ (also previously spoofed in LITO) = KB and

Trend Collection = Rend Collective.

Anyhow, next chapter. Sonic and Tails finish up a clean-up job on another world, but are quickly

called to their own as a new threat advances. Will Sonic be able to stop it? Will Judy and Silver's

wedding turn out good?Are you gonna end up

laughing or crying? Find out the answer to that and more on the next chapter of LITO: Infinity

Rising. See ya later!
