The entire Wilde family stood there in shock, unable to move or make a sound. Bellwethers body slumped over on the bed and then promptly fell over onto the floor with a dull 'thud' sound.

Richard sat soaked in his wife's blood. While his son, Joe, breathed hard as he held a gun in his hand.

"Looks like you beat me too it pop" said Joe holstering his gun. While he spoke the rest of the Wilde family still remained silent.

"Yes it does" said Richard holding up his smoking .37 caliber medium nosed revolver. The hospital staff quickly rushed in and saw the scene and immediately moved the sheep's body to the morgue and clean up the mess. But in the mean time they also contacted the police to come and see what had happened.

As this was going on the rest of the Wilde family had come out of their trance and had seemed to ignore the shooting, for now and surrounded Richard and started to talk to him and see if he was alright.

Although he appreciated the sentiments he told them that he was alright. As they were talking to him three figures entered the room.

The three figures turned out to be Marian,Robin, and Chief Bogo.

Nick and Judy were immediately afraid that Richard might have to be arrested and sentenced to prison for the rest of his life.

"Wilde,Wilde, Could I have a word with you both" said Bogo motioning for them to join him in the hall. Both Nick and Judy gulped and headed out to the hall.

As the rooms door closed behind them, an audible sigh could be heard, it came from Chief Bogo.

"Wilde's, I hope you understand that what he did is illegal, and that-"

"Please, sir don't send him to jail, he's too important to us" interrupted Judy. This was a surprise to both Nick and Bogo, while Judy did speak her mind she also knew when to keep her maw shut. But now she seemed not to care about the consequences, but just about saving Nick's- her family.

"Wilde if you would let me Finnish I could tell you that we are not going to arrest Richard, we're letting him off the hook this one time, only because the mayor and I both agree arresting one of the biggest business mammals and most influential people in Zootopia would be a huge PR disaster" said Bogo.

Both Nick's and Judy's eyes lit up like fireworks. Bogo gave a small smile,which was rare, and waved them back into the room.

Sylvia was fussing over Richard trying to make him more comfortable in his bed. Even though he was just fine the way he was, right at the moment. Joe however was curious about how his dad knew about Bellwether, considering that he was in semi-coma for the last few days.

"Say dad, not bring up the past or anything, but how did you know about Bellwether?" asked Joe.

"Well when she was in here before you guys got here, I regained consciousness for a little bit and heard her conniving, then I when right back out" said Richard.

Joe decided not question him any further. Nick and Judy had returned from the hallway and rejoined the rest of the family.

"Nick my boy, how have you been since I've been out?" asked Richard. Nick gave a slight chuckle.

"To be honest with you grandpa, I've been absolutely stressed out" replied Nick.

"Well it's all over now, so you can relax" said Richard.

Nick let out a breath and visibly relaxed a little. Judy was glad to see her husband somewhat back to his original state.

"Joe, how's the business son?" asked Richard.

"Last time I checked it was doing fine, but don't worry about that right now, you've just come out of a massive heart attack, so I'd rather the business not be the cause of another one" replied Joe.

"Fair enough" said Richard.

For the rest of the day the entire Wilde family stayed in that room, practically glued together. They only left when the doctor told them that Richard needed some rest and the rest of them looked like the could as well.

So with reluctance Nick and Judy headed back to their home and so did Marian and Robin, as well as Joe and Sylvia.

They has all been through a lot, but they hoped that things would calm down a little bit from now on.

(1 Week Later)

Over the last week Richard had been aloud to go back home, but was ordered on bed rest for the next two weeks in order to recover, but he was to maintain some constant physical activity to help him gain some strength back.

Besides that news, the rest of the family had been quite good. Nick and Judy had returned to their honeymoon for a week that the chief had given them as compensation for finally stopping bellwether.

They had enjoyed their honeymoon and after it was done returned to their regular lives well that was until a particular Friday. Nick and Judy had been enjoying dinner as usual, but when all of a sudden Judy felt sickly, she tried to push it off until she felt nauseous and then sprinted to the bathroom to throw up.

Nick followed quickly and held her ears back.

"Judy are you okay?" asked Nick in a concerned manner.

Judy tried to speak but she could only manage to shake her head no before she started to spew chunks again. Nick felt bad that he couldn't do anything to help her, so he just rubbed her back and told her that everything would be alright.

It took half an hour for Judy to get comfortable from being more than 10 feet from the bathroom.

They both sat on the couch snuggled up against one another.

"Judy are you sure your okay?" asked Nick.

Judy rolled her eyes, as Nick had been asking her for the last 5 minutes if she was okay, she always told him yes and he always said okay, but he wasn't taking her answers at face value it appeared.

"Really Nick I'm fine, its probably just something I ate" said Judy getting annoyed that Nick wouldn't just let it go.

"Okay, Okay, I won't ask anymore. Just promise me that if this happens again you will go to the doctor and check and make sure it's nothing" said Nick.

"Okay Nick you win, if it happens again I'll go to the doctor" replied Judy.

"Now just shut up and lets snuggle".

Nick's face fell back into its usual sarcastic look.

"Okay, lets"

The laid there for the next few minutes just holding each other and enjoying the sensation of their fur against the other. But they didn't dare stay there any longer than a few minutes, for fear of falling asleep on the couch mean't sore backs for them in the morning.

So reluctantly they got up off the couch and dragged themselves up the stairs to their bedroom to get ready to go to bed.

When they got into the room Judy went straight into the bathroom and Nick opted to take off his clothes and get into his pj's, which consisted of a light pair of cotton pants and a light cotton shirt.

He than heard the door open behind him and found Judy changed into her light negligee.

"Bathrooms all yours" said Judy walking towards the bed.

Nick nodded and headed over to the bathroom to brush his teeth. As he walked in to brush his teeth he wondered as to why Judy was getting sick, he quickly put away the thought that she could be pregnant.

Foxes and Bunny's couldn't have kits.

Well as far as he knew they couldn't, but he didn't know what else it could be, he didn't hear of any bugs going around. He just had too much running around his head right now. But he didn't want to psych himself up to much, so he pushed all thoughts of Judy being sick out of his head and just went on brushing his teeth.

After he finished getting ready for bed he exited the bathroom and shut off the light and head to the other side of bed not occupied by Judy, his wife.

He reached the other side and pulled back the covers and got into bed. He then scooted closer to the other side and spooned Judy and wrapped his tail around the bottom of her feet, he nestled her in a sea of russet colored fur. Not the she minded.

"Good Night, I'll see you in the A.M." said Judy

"Good Night Carrots" replied Nick.

And so the two drifted off to sleep, Judy no longer felt sick, and she was glad for that. But some where deep down she had a gut feeling that this was more than just some bug that was going around.

But at that moment she decided not to worry herself about that but instead enjoy the feeling of Nick's fur against hers. As she took in the feeling she begin to fall deeper into a state of sleep, until she completely slipped and her eyes closed and were met with the comfort of sleep.

(The Next Morning)

Judy was the first to wake up, as she woke up she saw that Nick was still wrapped around her body seeming to want to protect her from all the worlds harm. She smiled and decided to not get up just yet, she knew that he was tired and that she enjoyed his fur far too much to ruin it by moving in the slightest.

Judy stayed there for another 20 minutes and then she heard him shuffle, so she turned over to see him with his muzzle near touching hers, and his nice dark green eyes meeting hers. She saw him give her a genuine smile, not one of those he used on his hustles, the ones full of sass. But an actual honest to god smile. It made her happy to that he was happy.

"Good morning fluff" said Nick

"Good morning slick" replied Judy.

"So how'd you sleep?" asked Nick.

Judy stretched and yawned and look back at her fox with lazy eyes.

"Pretty good actually, and I feel better than I did yesterday night" replied Judy laying back down onto her back. Nick joined her and cuddled up next to her.

"Well that's good, your right it was probably just a bug" said Nick wrapping his arms around her.

The laid there for a few minutes, just bracing in the touch of the others fur on their own. But eventually Nick's stomach growled, which caused Judy to give him an 'Really' look, while Nick just gave his trade marked smirk.

"It seems that the only thing that ever ruins these moments is your stomach" Judy ribbed. Nick sprang a paw against his chest in obvious fake anger.

"How dare you Carrots, I'll have you know that my stomach is perfectly normal" said Nick, smiling through the entire scentence.

Judy gave him a smile and returned his rib.

"Oh, I am sorry my dear fox, would you like a kiss to make it better?" mused Judy.

Nick nodded with a large grin.

"Okay" said Judy leaning towards her husband.

The two's lips met, the started to melt into each others embrace. But Judy put a stop to things before they ended up dirtying another set of sheets.

The two headed down to their kitchen to get some breakfast.

Nick entered the kitchen and got the carton of eggs out of the fridge. He then removed the frying pan from its hanging position above the stove. He then turned on the gas burner and began to fry some eggs for him and Judy.

Although Nick would never admit it, even though Judy sang praise, he would never admit he was a good cook. Mainly because all his life he had been taught that men do not cook, of course he knew that was bs by his teenage years, but he still felt weird for doing it.

Both him and Judy could cook, her growing up on a farm, and him being single for a long time had both taught them on how to prepare a nice homecooked meal. As Nick was cooking the eggs Judy sat down at the table and began to flip threw the newspaper.

The headline was about Richard, of course. Having the most successful business mammal in Zootopia almost kick the bucket was always going to be big news. She quickly went past it to try and keep herself in a good mood.

There was some other junk articles, nothing really important. As she closed the paper her phone went off with an alert that she had just gotten a text. She took out her phone and looked at it, it was a text from the hospital reminder her of her appointment for today. She was hoping to keep the appointment a secret from Nick because she didn't want him to worry anymore than he was.

So she hoped to give him something to do so that she could sneak off to her appointment.

"Say Nick?" said Judy, prompting Nick's ears to perk at the sound of Judy's voice.

"Yeah?".

"Maybe you should go and visit Richard today, check up on him, see how he's doing" said Judy.

"I suppose I could, Why?, what are you going to do today that you don't want me to know about" said Nick with a smirk on his face as he made his way over to the toaster where the toast had just popped.

Judy's mind quickly put itself into a panic, 'How could he know that I'm doing something, that's imp-'

"Carrots, Carrots, you with me?" asked Nick waving his paw in front of his wife which made her blink and snap back into reality.

"uh, what?" said Judy shaking her head trying to make up for mental ground.

"Carrots?,it was just a joke, no need to blank out on me, I know that I need to visit grandpa and there are probably some errands you need to run" said Nick setting down the eggs and toast in front of Judy and then in his place, quickly put the dirty dishes into the sink, took off the apran, and sat down to enjoy breakfast with his wife.

"Oh, okay, sorry Nick I'm just little tried this morning" said Judy taking a small bite out of her eggs.

Nick just nodded with his trademark grin and started to eat his breakfast.

They had a quite nice and conversation light breakfast and eventually they both need things to do Nick put on some jeans and a t-shirt and head to the garage to get his car. As he got in, started the engine and pulled out he saw Judy standing on the porch waving to him as he drove off into the dense traffic of the Savannah Square.

She sighed in relief as she saw him round the corner. She made her way back inside and put on a nice loose fitting dress, one that she had bought so she could look formal and nice but still look comfortable. She then picked up the home phone and dialed the number of Zootopia Central Hospital and heard it ring a couple times before being picked up.

"Hello, Zootopia Central Hospital, how can I help you?" said the receptionist.

"Yes Hello, this is Judy Wilde I have an appointment with Doctor Andrews, I'm just checking in to confirm the time, 1:00 Right?" said Judy.

She heard some typing on a keyboard as well as some clicking.

"Yes that's the correct time, will that be all?" said the Receptionist.

"Yes that's all, Thanks" said Judy. The mammal on the other end thanked her and hung up.

Judy looked up at the clock on the wall, it read 9:53, it was well over 3 hours to her appointment and she had nothing to do. Well that she could think of right now. So she went downstairs and sat on the couch and flicked on the TV and turned on some random daytime talk show and started to watch.

(With Nick)

Nick had just turned the corner from his and Judy's house. He knew she was up to something, but he decided to play dumb and let her do what she was going to do, he trusted her, so he had no reason to suspect anything bad, yet at least.

He had just joined the heavy traffic of Zootopia's main highway. He quickly got his car up to 70 and got into the right lane and looked out for the Fox Burrow exit. After 15 minutes of driving his saw it coming up, so he signaled and got ready to turn. He was about to turn when some jackass in a 2 door sports car cut him off at an extremely high speed.

Nick had just enough time to pull back into his lane before the car could hit him. As he was about to honk at it that car zoomed off further down the highway. Nick decided that he had had enough of this, he flipped on the undercover police lights he had on his 1947 Cadillac Series 62 4-door convertible.

He had been given the lights as well as a spare badge in his glove compartment just in case head was needed at a moments notice. He knew this impulsive use of his power would not fly well with the Chief. But to be fair the guy was speeding on the highway, which was a danger to people on the road.

As he flipped on his light and pumped his straight 8 cylinder engine he took out his cell phone and dialed the front desk of ZPD's headquarters.

"Hello ZPD Headquarters, this is Officer Clawhauser, how may I help you?" asked the Chubby Cheetah behind the counter.

"Yes Clawhauser, this is Nick I-"

"Oh, Hi Nick, how are you" Asked Clawhauser.

"Not right not spots I need you to get a unit dipatched to my cell position now, I'm in pursuit of a speeding sports car on the highway" said Nick trying to keep speed with the car and steer with hand was proving difficult.

"Oh, Of course they be there soon, but you know Bogo isn't going to like this" said Clawhauser.

"I know bud, but this mammal,whoever he is, is a danger to the public and that's good enough" replied Nick with a fire in his gut that had never been there. Maybe he was always meant to do this job, he certainty had the determination for it.

Nick hung up on Clawhauser and put his pedal down further pushing the car up to 90 miles an hour, a speed he didn't know the car could do. He then saw to police cars on either side of him speed a little bit a head of him weaving through the traffic that hadn't gotten out of the way yet.

Nick then heard some crackling near the radio of the car he looked and down and saw something. It was a police radio mounted under then regular radio, he had forgotten about that being in the car. He then heard the voice of Fangmeyer come through the radio.

"Wilde what are you doing chasing bad guys, isn't this your day off". Nick could hear the sarcasm in his voice. Nick rolled his eyes and picked up the radio.

"I couldn't help it" replied Nick.

"Well don't worry about chasing him anymore, that old car of yours isn't built for this kind of work, we've got'em" said Officer Grizzoli.

Nick thanked them and slowed down his car and turned off his lights. The engine underneath was more than likely thankful to go back down to normal speed. Nick turned off of the highway and onto the smaller streets of the inner-city. Now that he missed the exit he would have to take the long way to Fox Burrow.

This was going to be a long day.

(2 Hours later)

Nick had just arrived at the gate to his grandfathers property. He rang the buzzer and waited.

"Hello, who is this?" asked his Grandfathers voice.

"Its Nick".

"Oh Nick, here let me let you in" said Richard. He heard the buzz and the gates opened. Nick went slow down the long and well maintained tar driveway. He pulled up to the house, shut off his car and got out. He then proceeded up the many stairs leading up to the front door.

(With Judy)

She had been watching TV and doing some small things around the house to try and eat up time. Which it did, but it was still a couple hours to her appointment and she couldn't wait anymore. So she headed to the garage and got into her car. A sleek looking four door Lincoln town car with some modifications, like all wheel drive and a powerful V8 engine. But it was still good for running around town.

So Judy got in and started the engine. As it roared to life she opened the garage door and pulled out onto the street. She then closed the garage door and started to drive towards the hospital.

Ready to know if the future held the pitter patter of little paws.
