A/N: Well, I'll start this story now so I don't keep you guys restless. As you'll be aware from the preview of this FoxFang story, the Pranker's back. How did she come back? You may have guessed. But there's going to be more to it than that. Anyway, please enjoy the story. On a different note, I'm just curious as to knowing if you guys have a favourite FoxFang story out of the ones that I've done up till now. I won't take offense at your opinions.

Disclaimer: You;ve read it so many times that It's becoming pointless me outting this but I have to for legal reasons. I don't want WB breathing down my throat after all. Anyway, Looney Tunes, Tiny Toons and anyone else that may appear don't belong to me, but are property of WB or their respectve owners. I am writing this with absolutely no profit motive.

Special training

It was the beginning of the Easter holidays in the city of Looniville, roughly 2 months after Brendan Rabbit had been captured by FoxFang, Cub and Lola. He had spent the two months servign a two year sentence for gatecrashing the bunnies' party. Zach had now gotten used to the fact that he was his true father but he hadn't told Daffy on the grounds that Daffy would get suspicious as to who Zach really was. Melissa was now two months pregnant and, while Zach was looking forward to being a step brother, he was also concerned. Mainly because it would give im other priorities and would make his life a little more difficult. It was already hard fighting crime nearly every day. Jessica had a similar problem. About one month ago, Lola discovered that she was pregnant again. This would give her other priorities as well. She was realising now how difficult he double life she led was, but she dared not quit. Neither did Zach. Too much was at stake if the just stopped. Egghead Jr. had finished making storage cupboards for the FoxFang and Cub outifts. They were registered to the specific owner's hand-print. King hadn't changed much. He was still the lovable pet Arctic Fox Prince during the day but he was still capible of causing severe damage during the night while he was with FoxFang. The police weren't after FoxFang or Cub as much now, despite the chief of police constantly ordering the officers to arrest them. The reason was that Richard and Rebecca hads been given severe doubts about the decision ever since Shirley's prophecy. FoxFang and Cub still didn't take any chances and fled as soon as the police arrivved. Lola enjoyed talking about the time she helped FoxFang and would bring it up at every oopportunity, just to annoy people like Daffy. Jessica put on a 'jealous child' routine whenever she did this. Lola was still completely oblivious to the fact that she had helped her own daughter. Jessica was happy to keep it that way. She knew that if her parents ever found out, there would be fireworks. There were times when she did wonder if it would be a good idea to let her parents in on the secret but Zach constantly advised her not to. They did considir allowing Buster and Babs on board but decided to wait until after their upcoming wedding and make a final decision afterwards. Buster, Babs, Plucky and Shirley had mended their friendship after their little argument at Bugs' party Egghead Jr. was already designing a new vehicle for FoxFang and Cub. It was codenamed the hoverfox. It was going to be a hovercraft which would be used to pursue speedboats. It was going to be equipped with the same equipment the Fangmobile was going to be equipped with and be just as fast. The reason for this vehicle was because FoxFang and Cub ended up pursueing a bike gang around the city. The gang ended up ditching the bikes at a lake near the centre of the ciyty and swimming to an island in the centre. FoxFang and Cub were able to call the Foxchopper and reach the island but it became apparent that theyy would need a vehicle for water transport, espeecially since Roadrunner accidentially discovered an underground river flowing right under the city. The team then realised that none of their current vehicles could traverse the river and water transport would be needed. As well as that, Egghead Jr. had also built a special type of hearing aid for Jessica and Zach. They had begun training to strengthen their hearing skills ever since the incident when a thug came too close to unmasking them. Their identities had been saved by the defence machanisms built into the outfits. The training would involve Jessica and Zach using the hearing aid and trying to eavesdrop on a conversation between Plucky and Shirley from a distance of 10 metres. The conversation would change each time and the sensitivity of the hearing aid was decreased every time Jessica and Zach completely heard the conversation. It was hoped that eventually, Jessica and Zach wouldn't need the hearing aids at all, and they were actually close to reaching that target. At current, they could hear the conversation with only minimal sensitivitty on the hearing aid. As a result, they could hear much better than their parents. Strengthening their hearing would serve two purposes, gathering information and for defensive measures. They were now able to hear people creeping up on them much better and were much harder to be caught off guard. They would also be able to eavesdrop on any criminal talking about their plans. Egghead Jr. was also developing on a device that would allow FoxFang and cub to record these conversations as evidence. They would plan to leave te recording behind at the scene of the crime for the police to listen to. Jessica was worried that, after an incident at the party, that Pranker would return but she wasn't concerned about it anymore. For one thing, Petunia's daughter was feeling perfeectly fine and there had been no sign of the Pranker, much to everyone's relief.

The team were currently in the Foxcave. Egghead jr. was at the compute finalising the plans for the hoverfox. King was lying down behnd him having a little snooze. Jessica and Zach were continuing with their training. Pluckky and Shirley were 10 metres away having a conversation for Jessica and Zach to try and eavesdrop on. They were trying the final step, not using the hearing aids at all. Plucky and Shirley had been talking for a few minutes now. Jessica and Zach had no knowledge of what Plucky and Shirley were talking about, as they did no body movements. All they were told was thatt it was a conversation between Bugs annd Daffy. Jessica ha opted to play Daffy while Zach played Bugs. Eventually, Plucky and Shirley came over to them, having finished the conversation.

"There, done." Plucky said.

"Now let's see if you can re-say our conversation." Shilrey added.

"Ok." Jessica replied.

"Right." Zach added."

"Zach, you're starting this."

"Oh, yeah. Hmm…er…Daff, were you meant to be doing something tonight?"

"Erm…Yeah, I was going out into the…er…forest."

"Well, let's hope you don't meet that duck hunter."

"Er…duck…hunter?"

"You don't know?"

"Err…hmm…of course I did."

"I don't think so"

"Now what did he say after that…oh yeah! Let lightning strike me if that was the case!"

"Bravo!" Plucky congratulated.

"How did we do?" Zach asked.

"On a percentage…90 percent." Shirley replied.

"Almost there, I think one more night will do it." Jessica said.

"Yeah, theen we'll be able to spy to an extent." Zach replied.

"I suppose we could."

"Any idea why it's been so quiet tonight?"

"Nope. It's a little unusual but at least we got chance to do this training."

"I'd like to know why it's so quiet."

"Could it have anything to do with Buster and Babs' wedding tomorrow?" Plucky suggested.

"It's tomorrow?" Jessica and Zach asked simulataneously.

"Yeah. I'm the pageboy and Shilrey's the bridesmade."

"Why wasn't I told?" Jessica moaned.

"I'm sure your father has a reason." Shirley replied.

"Well, I'll find out tomorrow."

After that conversation, Jessica realised that it was nearly 1:00. Her and Zach had spent the whole evening strengthening their hearing without any interruptions. In many ways, this suited her just fine, but she still wasn't sure why the city was so quiet. She decided to put it to the back of her mind. She went to herad back to her house when Zach out a hand on her shoulder. She had gotten used to this and just turned around calmly.

"Going home?" Zach asked.

"Yeah. Not much point in staying here. Nothing happens after 1:00." Jessica replied.

"True. I might as well go home as well."

"Do you think you'll be going to the wedding?"

"Probably. Buster and Babs will have invited a large group."

"So, if my parents are coming, I might see you tomorrow."

"Maybe. I hope so."

"Well, goodnight Zach."

"And you as well." Zach moved his hand downn Jessica's arm and held onto her hand tightly. Jessica held onto his handd t this and pulled him closer. They were in each other's faces and looking into each other's eyes. Jessica took the opportunity and put her free arm around Zach's back. Zach did the same and they pulled each other together as tightly as possible. They were still staring into each other's eyes. By this time, Plucky and Shirley had moved away to give the wo rabbits some space. Jessica and Zach just continued to look into each other's eyes for what seemed like an eternity to them. Eventually, Jessica leaned closer and the two of hem kissed each oher tenderly. They held onto each other as tightly as possible during the kiss and were practically breathing each other's air. After 10 minutes of kissing, Jessica toppled backwards and ended up on the floor with Zach on top of her. They were still in a liplock and didn't seem to realise. Plucky and Shirley were quietly giggling to themselves. From their view, Jessica and Zach were in a 'mature' position, something that Jessica and Zach were too young to know about. That didn't stop either of them kissing. The kiss lasted for half an hour, by which time, Jessica had realised that Zach was on top of him. Instead of blushing, she just smiled.

"Makes a change. Usually, I end up on top of you." Jessica saiid.

"Yeah. Anyway, let's get to sleep."

"Yeah, goodnight."

At about 9:00 that morning, Bugs, Lola and Jessica were busy getting some smart clothes on. Bugs and Lola had been invited to Buster and Babs wedding ubt just hadn't told Jessica about it. The reason for this was because they thought it would give her less time to moan about having to wear a smart dress. Lola was wearing a slightly looser fitting dress than she normally would, being a month pregnant. They were still unsure of what the new baby was going to be, but everyone was excited in their own way. Bugs was wearing his usual tux and a tie. Jessica was wearing the same dress she had to wear for the ACME superstore opening. The three of them were gathered in the livign room, checking that they had everything.

"Well, we're all ready." Lola said.

"To think Buster and Babs are finally gonna marry. I was wondering how long it would be until it happened.." Bugs added.

"Humph." Jessica muttered.

"Jess, you're not angry about wearing a smart dress are ya?"

"No dad, I'm angry because you didn't tell me about this."

"We figured it would give you less chance to be angry anou wearing a smart dress."

"It actually made me worse."

"Then perhaps we blundered there."

"Why?"

"Because there's something else we hid from you."

"What?"

"Jess, you're one of the bridesmades." Lola replied.

"I'm a what?"

"A bridesmade."

"Why did you not tell me that?"

"We already explained tto you the reason." Jessica gave both her parents the cold shoulder.

"Mum, Dad, just don't talk to me."

"Jess, that is no way to treat your parents." Bugs snapped.

"I could say the same. Keeping something like this a secret from me? Not fair!"

"Look, we thought we'd be doing you a favour."

"Well you weren't OK!" Jessica was nearly shouting, but she was still loud enough to make her parent's flinch.

"Ok, we goofed. We're sorry." Lola said.

"Jess, we'll compromise with you. As soon as the ceremony is over with, we'll take you back home. You don't have to come to the reception." Bugs added.

"Does that make you feel better?"

"A little." Jessica replied.

"Well, we'd better go otherwise we'll be late." Bugs said.
