9:00 PM
Nick and Jack ran out of the house as Lumine got up off the ground. With a deep growl Illuminating from the tiny pup. Jack was the first to charge at Lumine as he yelled out, "bro this should be fun!"
"Yeah, fun. Me fighting with Lumine while he's angry isn't my idea of fun Cotton Butt!" Nick responded as he took off running.
Back in the house Stu was yelling at the kits as he said, "you all should be ashamed at yourselves. Calling your brother a fruit cake! Now look at what we have to deal with. An angry coyote pup, who could easily not only kill you all without breaking a sweat. But could also bring Zootopia to it's knees if he wanted to. Now I want everyone to go outside and watch the mess you all created!"
Everyone left the house except Judy, Skye, Bonnie, Stacy and Michael.
Michael stood in the living room with tears still running down his muzzle. Stacy was the first to walk over to Michael as she kneeled down and brought the young buck into a hug.
"Don't let what they say about you get to you. You're a bright kit and if Lumine is willing to stand up for you well that's saying a lot." Stacy said as she gently rubbed his back.
Michael wiped the tears away as he looked up at her saying, "thank you."
Looking into Michael's eyes Stacy asked, "Ah, Bonnie was Michael born with icy blue eyes?"
"Oh, heavens no! He was born with green eyes. Why do you ask?" Bonnie replied and asked with an odd look.
Turning Michael around to face the group as Stacy said, "because their blue now."
"But how? Lumine has only been around Michael for two hours today. They did do a bit of school work together. Oh, before I forget Judy your son is a genius. Michael, can you go into the kitchen and grab those papers you had Lumine work on." Bonnie commented.
Michael headed for the kitchen as Judy watched his movements closely. When Michael was out of sight Judy said, "I think it's a little weird that Lumine passed on some of his power to Michael."
"I think Lumine knew what he was doing. Because on the train when you and Nick were talking trying to calm down. What did you two end up doing?" Stacy asked.
"Well, we talked and stayed close to each other" Judy replied as she paused for a moment.
"That's it! Lumine needed to stay grounded so he passed on some of his power to Michael. Just in case he lost control." Stacy said as Michael came back into the living room.
As Stu and the other Hopps kits gathered on the porch to watch the showdown. Nick and Jack clashed with Lumine as the show of power between the three sent shock waves ripping through the air.
Nick and Jack worked together as they fought the enraged pup. Lumine was fast and strong, but because of his lack of fighting skills. He was at a disadvantage against Nick and Jack, who countered his every attempt at getting a good hit in.
"Are you still having fun Jack?!" Nick yelled as the two sent the pup flying a good distance.
Jack was panting as he replied, "Oh, fuck yeah! It's not every day I get to play with my older brother like this. Even if it is against my nephew."
Nick smiled at the kind words Jack said as they waited for Lumine to charge in again.
As the Hopps clan watched the show of absolute raw power coming from the three mammals. Stu pulled out his phone and started to record it, saying, "this is truly insane. Even though Nick and Jack work well fighting together I don't think they can last much longer."
Michael pawed over the papers to his mom, who showed his sisters Lumine's work. Judy and Skye jaws hung open as they looked over the papers.
" I can't believe that Lumine is on a 7th grade level at his age." Judy said as she put the papers away to show Nick later.
Hearing the commotion coming from outside. Bonnie looked at Michael as she sighed saying, "Michael, I really hate to do this to you but seeing how Lumine shared some of his power with you. It's up to you to go calm him down by any means necessary."
"Do you mean I have to fight him?" Michael asked.
Skye placed a paw on her brothers shoulder as she said, "its more on the lines of sparring with him. He can't control himself and we need you to give him a helping paw. You don't have to say it, but we all can tell what he means to you."
Michael's heart rate rose as the inside of his ears turned bright pink. As the brightness of his icy blue eyes shined brighter. The black buck ran out of the house towards the battle ground.
As the battle continued between the three Nick and Jack were, getting tired as they sent Lumine flying again. Jack looked over at the house as he heard the door fly open.
Stu and the other Hopps kits continued to watch the show when suddenly the door of the house swung open. Stu looked back as he caught the sight of a pair of icy blue eyes pass by him. One of the kits shouted out, "Isn't that Michael!"
Bonnie and the girls came out as well as Stu asked, "Bon, why is Michael's eyes blue?"
"His eyes are blue because Lumine transferred some of his power to him. Now it's Michael's turn to help calm him down" Bonnie said as she watched her son quickly close the gap.
Michael yelled out, "Lumine!!"
As he charged into battle. Nick and Jack both looked left as they heard Michael yell out the pups name.
Lumine was charging at Nick and Jack when he suddenly heard his name being called. Stopping in his tracks. The pup looked over to his right seeing a pair of icy blue eyes racing towards him. A fanged smile could be seen plastered on Lumine's muzzle as he changed directions.
As the two mammals paws clashed a light show illuminated from the two. Nick and Jack ran back towards the house. Getting there Nick asked, "Carrots what's going on with your younger brother, why is his eyes blue?"
Stacy cut in before Judy could answer, "it's love, son. That's why they're blue, Lumine is filled with hatred and without his blue eyes he's losing control."
"I get it now. Lumine must have known he was going to lose control in the house, so he passed on his blue eyes to Michael. That's actually smart of him to do, " Jack said as they watched the scene unfold.
Michael was getting use to his new power as he clashed with Lumine time and time again. The young buck never like fighting, but this was different he wasn't fighting for hate he was doing it for Lumine.
For his entire family and yes for himself. After the third time of them clashing Michael had a brilliant idea on how to calm him down. So as Lumine charged in Michael locked his paws around Lumine's body thinking, "this isn't what I expected my first kiss would be like but here goes nothing."
Michael kissed the enraged coyote pup on the lips and just like magic Lumine's rage was brought to a screeching halt.
Cody the teenaged buck said, "I knew they were both fruitcakes "
Before Cody had a chance to finish his statement Judy grabbed him by the collar quick as her eyes began to turn deep red.
Growling out, "You ever call them a fruitcake again. I will personally stand there and let Lumine put you in the ground!"
Cody looked at his sister's eyes turn deep red and could feel his brain tell him to flee away from the danger he was around.
Nick came over to Judy as he placed a paw on her shoulder and whispered into her ear, "Now, now Fluff. Let mama and papa Hopps take care of the naughty kit. We have to go get our own pup from the field remember."
Judy let go of Cody as she calmed down and walked out to the field.
"Everyone back in the house and get ready for dinner. There will be no dessert for two weeks, that should give you all enough time to think about what you all did" Bonnie said as they all went in.
Michael eyes stayed icy blue as he sat on the ground holding Lumine in his lap. As he whispered in his ear, "your very special to me."
Nick and Judy walked over to the two as Judy heard what Michael had whispered into Lumine's ears.
"I know Lumine feels the same way about you Michael." Judy said as Nick picked Lumine up and started to head to the house.
After Nick and Judy got into the house with the kits. Michael looked at his sister and said, "Judy, can you tell mom I'm too tired to eat and I'm going to my room."
"Alright I will let her know, but do you mind if Lumine spend the night in your room tonight?" Judy asked as she thought of many ways to thank her fox.
" I don't mind. I was going to ask you the same thing." Michael replied as he started to walk away.
