Monica sat on the bed waiting for what seemed like hours, the sun setting and casting shadows in the room. eventually, the moon rose as she got up examining thru all the valuables before carefully putting them in the pillowcase. Monica slowly opened the door. looking around to see if the coast was clear.

Monica slowly stepped out of the room into the dark hallway, slowly stepping onto the wooden floor, slowly walked carrying the sack behind her careful not to make any noise. Making her way to the stairs Monica slowly took a step on the wooden step making a small creak noise before she quickly turned not seeing anyone.

Taking a sigh of relief she took her next step, slowly down the next step, quietly making her way down the stairs, which took what seemed like ages. Upon reaching the final step Monica crept thru the hallway into the restaurant as the sound of as glass breaking was heard. The shock nearly made Monica drop her bag.

"Come on boys, This will teach that old fool not to pay," a voice said as Monica peeked around the corner seeing the source. a group of fully grown tigers creeping around the restaurant.

"Get the register" the biggest ordered wearing an oriental style demon mask as a smaller tiger twirled a crowbar, jamming it into the register causing it to pop open. the men took time unloading the register as Monica frantically looked around backing up to avoid detection.

What should she do, she knew nothing about these guys, and they were probably dangerous. then again their problems were with Long, It was none of her business. Monica backed up hitting a vase as it fell.

"No" Monica called out catching the vase before it hit the ground. She looked around sighing in relief, placing back on the stand as she felt a tapping on her shoulder, turning seeing the eyes of the tiger leader's demon mask staring into her.

"What do we have here?" The tiger asked snatching the pillow-sack from the young vixen pushing her on the ground before looking thru the bag.

"Looks like little red here, has done our work for us, look at these valuables" the Demon Tiger called out to his followers as they looked thru the bag. the demon held Monic pinning her to a wall with one paw as she was obviously scared.

"So, where is the old panda anyways," the Demon asked as Monica tried loosening his grip.

"I Don't know" she pleaded to the tiger as he tilted his head. it was clear to him the fox was hiding something. he carried her to one of the table holding her down.

"You're sure, you don't know anything?" The Tiger asked his face a few inches away from Monica as she was shaking.

"I Promise, I Just came in here to steal some junk, I don't know what you want" Monica pleaded as The Demon unsheathed a katana from his back his free paw swinging it down as it landed beside Monica sticking in the table as she started panicking.

"Please don't kill me, I swear I'll do anything" Monica pleaded as The Demon pulled out his sword tapping the side of the blade against the vixen's cheek.

"Fear is a funny thing isn't it, you snot-nosed punk; with this sword, I can get whatever I want from you" The demon replied sliding his sword back as Monica sighed in relief.

"But I don't need a sword to make you afraid" He replied running his finger gently on her stomach, his claw creasing the jacket before he slashed it off in one move.

"Please, I'm begging you not to kill me" Monica pleaded as the Demon laughed.

"Who said I was going to kill you" The older Tiger replied as his goons looked around confused. they were busy collecting valuables to pay much attention, but in honesty, they didn't want to see what was gonna happen next. The demon firmly gripped her chest pulling as her pink shirt tore clean off as the goon s looked around.

"Come on, I really don't want to see the boss torturing a child, that's a bit sick...even for me" On of the mask tigers replied emptying the register into the pillow sack as they left the two. exiting the restaurant.

"We'll be in the car boss, come see us when you're...done with that" One of the tiger's replied walking out with the other. The two tigers made their way to a car parked in a nearby alleyway, opening the door setting down removing their masks.

"How long do you think the boss is gonna take?" one of the tigers asked fiddling with the radio in the black car. almost feeling sorry for the young fox. the second tiger lit his cigarette.

"I don't know, the Boss indulges on fear, seeing that looks of hopelessness on that vixen's face that's probably getting him off more than anything he could ever physically do" The second replied taking a puff of his cigarette as the first looked thru the pillow sack.

"Most of this just worthless junk, that child has no idea about an item's worth, what am I gonna do with clay sculptures," one of the tigers asked as they sat there listening to music, waiting for their boss to finish up. taking a puff from his cigarette as a loud crash was heard.

"What was that?" One of the tigers asked turning off the radio as a figure stood up in front of the car. the headlights shining on him revealing him to be the demon as another figure jumped from the restaurant window heading at him. picking up the tiger slamming him into the car door.

"Is that it can't be!" One of the tigers said as the figure walked toward the car slamming his paw in the window pulling the tiger out, throwing him down the alley, doing the same with the third. The fight was over as quick as it began. the three were no match for The fighting prowess of Thunder Dragon. standing over the three, tieing them to a lamp post before staring at the demon who was now unmasked.

"Don't ever come back" Thunder ordered heading back to the restaurant. He opened the door, seeing Monica curled on the floor, flicking the light switch as she jumped in a panic.

"It's Okay, I Call the police to pick them up" Dragon replied walking to the fox, her clothes shredded as she curled in a ball sniffling as he placed the bag on the table.

"Very brave of you to stand up to him" Dragon replied removing his mask as Monica was still curled. he casually picked her up carefully.

"I'll make you some tea, we can talk in the morning, you've been through a lot" Lee stated as Monica was sobbing, trying to speak but unable to as Lee looked down at her.

"It's okay, you don't have to say anything" Lee replied escorting the fox upstairs, laying her on the guest bed. Lee was under the impression that the burglars went upstairs and found Monica, and she was in no state to tell him otherwise. He pulled the cover over the young fox still tearing before leaving the room.

Lee wasted no time calling the Zootopia Police force, reporting the robbery and attempted an assault on Monica. the thought made him sick to his stomach, that they're mammals that twisted, willing to hurt children, he changed back into his regular clothes and waited for the ZPF to pick the three tigers up as they arrived, chaining and muzzling the three.

"So you say they broke in, emptied the register, went upstairs and assaulted your guest" One of the officers stated as Lee nodded telling them everything he knew.

"And what of the girl, what's her story?" The other officer asked as Lee looked down telling them she was homeless, he was letting her stay with him, and that she worked for him. the two officers had questions but decided not to get Monica involved, she's already been through enough for one night.

The officers left as Lee sat there making tea, he sat watching the pot boil, thinking about Monica and how tonight had affected her and how lucky she was, must who go against the Demon don't live to tell about it, he felt some responsibility because he let her stay there, but he did save her.
