Metal Amadeus: ROYAL FLAMES WILL CARVE THE PATH IN CHAOS, See what you started?
I don't plan to stop this anytime soon and since I'm bored the majority of the time, this should be updated quite regularly
PrinceSolaris: A7X is also one of my personal favorites as well and I spent a while trying to find a good song to start it off with, I also have a few A7X songs planned and one will be Chapter 5 and I have taken all your suggestions and I'm in the process of planning how I want them to go.

Song 2: Stricken
Nick was lazily sitting in his desk chair as he looked at a small pile of paperwork he had to fill in by the end of the day. In truth, the pile was much bigger than it currently was but that was before Judy had pulled her chair up to his desk and chastised the fox on how lazy he had been and why he shouldn't have let his paperwork pile up.
Without having to ask Judy had started to help the fox.
With their combined efforts they were able to cut down the size of the pile by a reasonable amount before they even reached their lunch break.
Lunch was the reason why Nick wasn't continuing his work. Judy had offered to go and collect lunch from somewhere for the two of them. Nick had originally tried to deny the offer and said that he should go with her but the doe wasn't hearing any of it.
After a while of trying to convince the Bunny, she had finally agreed and allowed Nick to come with her. Or at least that was what Nick thought was going to happen. When he had gotten out of his chair and walked to the coat hooks in the far corner of the room he quickly turned around when his ears twitched at the sound of a lock turning.
Walking up to the office door he placed a paw on the handle and pushed down on it and went to walk out but he realized that he was now locked inside the office that he shared with the bunny that was standing innocently on the other side of the door with her paws behind her back, ears hanging low against her back and amethyst eyes wide that seemed to taunt the now trapped fox.
She smiled proudly at her work and when she met the shocked look of Nick she had simply mouthed "It's called a hustle sweetheart" before she had walked off.
That was almost thirty minutes ago and it was the longest thirty minutes of Nick's life. After a few minutes, Officer Wolfard had noticed him and after trying to enter and talk to Nick but finding the door locked his head leaned to one side with one ear going limp and the other standing erect.
Once Nick explained his situation to Wolfard there were a few seconds of silence until he started to chuckle until he burst out laughing as he leaned next to the door and held his stomach.
His laughing had attracted the attention of more officers and soon there was a small crowd at the door all laughing and taking pictures as if Nick was in some type of zoo.
And that was where Nick was right now, leaning back in his chair waiting for Judy as the small crowd seemed to be talking among himself, trying to figure out why he was trapped in his office by his partner and they would occasionally burst out laughing. The longest they had laughed was when Delgato had said that he was put "In the foxhouse"
Nick's ears twitched as he heard the noise of soft pawsteps coming down the hall outside the door and soon his nose started twitching. It didn't take him long to pick up the scent he was hoping for. The scent of the countryside that he had come accustom to after working with Judy for so long and learned to memorize it from anywhere. The scent was also followed by that of crickets, which would most likely be some type of burger Judy got him, The smell of carrots, lettuce and other such fruit and veg that would have been Judy's salad but there was also another smell that made his mouth water.
It was a smell that he had only had the pleasure of sniffing a few times in his life but it was always followed by something amazing.
Nick noticed how the crowd was silent and seemed to be looking down. All of the predator's noses were twitching and they wore a face that showed clear jealousy. Soon there was a click and Judy slowly came through the door with two separate bags, one in each paw. She saw Nick in his relaxed state and could tell by the look on his face and his frantic nose twitches that didn't show any signs of slowing down.
Judy turned her head around and looked at the crowd that had gathered. They all looked at the plastic bag in her left paw as if inside was a rare and delicate treasure. Although the price alone was enough to call it a treasure.
"Has Wilde been a good boy?" she teased and all eyes raised up to hers and at once they all shook their head. Turning back around to look at Nick as she tried to put on a disappointed face but her smile made it harder than it should have been "I just can't trust you can I?" she asked rhetorically
Nick made an effort to slouch even more in his chair and place a paw over his chest "ouch fluff, I thought we were past the speciest remarks"
When Judy just smiled even more at the overly dramatic fox she turned and closed the door to their shared office before she climbed back onto her chair and adjusted the height so she could place the bags on the table.
She watched in amusement as Nick watched her at a sloth like pace pullout the food, starting first with her salad and moving on to Nick's cricket burger. As Judy started to reach into the second bag Nick spoke up
"Carrots, did you really go out of your way to get me fish?"
When Judy pulled out a little box that was the source of the heavenly smell for Nick, she just smiled slightly and opened the box as she faced it towards the fox "I thought you deserved it for all the work you did in such a short amount of time"
Nick looked at her with a pleading look as the small box of fish was pushed towards him, When Judy gave him a nod with her head Nick quickly ripped off a sizable piece and shoved it into his maw. Judy laughed at the kit like behavior of the fox as she slowly started to eat her salad.
After a few minutes of silence, Nick closed the small box that once held his fish He slowly reached out and grabbed the cricket burger, smaller than what he usually had but he didn't mind. Before he took his first bite he looked at Judy and caught her gaze "You are the best Judy"
Judy put on a genuine smile as she took in what the fox said "You know you love me"
"Ohhh yes I do" Nick said without a second of hesitation and got out of his seat and quickly walked over and gave Judy a tight hug
"Good because do you know all the strange looks mammals gave me?" she asked as she looked up at the fox and met his gaze as he was staring down at her "A bunny wearing a police uniform walking into a predators fast food place and ordering fish"
"Tell me every detail" Nick said as he broke the hug and started to eat his cricket burger while listening to Judy talk about what mammals told her and how they looked at her like a lost child.
It was a few hours after their shift and Nick and Judy parted headed up to her shoebox of an apartment and Nick had started making his way to his own. He had decided to spend a bit more time just talking with Judy so he ended up walking her home.
Nick had managed to cover a bit of distance before his phone started to ring in his pocket. Pulling his phone out of his pocket he looked at who was calling him, he had a 50/50 chance of guessing who was calling him, Finnick or his mother since his only other contact Judy, wouldn't be calling he right now.
Looking at the image of a drunken and passed out Fennic fox in a nurses outfit that he was sure he would be dead if Finnick ever found out, Nick answered the call and held his phone up to his ear "Hello?" he voiced cheerfully knowing it would annoy the fennec fox
"Stop that cheerful and giddy shit right now" the deep voice boomed over the phone "Where are you right now?"
"I'm just outside Jumbeaux's cafe" Nick said as he observed his surrounding "Why?"
"What are you doing there?!" Finnick shouted over the phone causing Nick to put his phone away from his ear a little "If he see's you and remembers you you're done, you could say bye-bye to that job of yours"
"Relax Fin, it's closed" Nick reassured the fennec and put the phone back to his ear cautiously "I was just with Judy and talked with her while she walked home" He continued to explain
The other end of the line was dead for a moment and Nick started to wonder if he had accidentally muted his phone when Finnick started talking again "Judy? as in the bunny cop?" he questioned and continued when Nick hummed in reply "Doesn't she live at the other end of the district to you?"
"Meh, It's only a little diversion" Nick said calmly as if he only had to walk down one extra street rather than across an entire district
"Tell me what happened today" Finnick demanded out of nowhere, surprising Nick a little but he complied
"Well me and Judy were set on desk duty because I needed to get my paperwork done, She helped me fill it in. She locked me in our office while she went out and got lunch, she came back about half an hour later with a cricket burger and fish, after that we..."
"She got you fish?!" Finnick shouted over the phone again making Nick push it away from his ear
"What's wrong with that?" He asked as he lowered the volume a little and put his phone back in place
"Bro, she is a prey animal and went out to buy you fish and let you eat it in front of her and I know what you're like when fish is involved"
"Fin-"
"No I have had enough of this, I thought you were smarter than this but you seem to be blind so let me tell you and I will only tell you this once so listen closely" Finnick went on and took a short but deep breath before he resued what he was saying "You have feelings for that dumb bunny"
Nick opened his mouth to tell Finnick how irrational he was being but found his response dying on his tongue. As if at once, it all became clear to Nick. All of his friendly banter with Judy could have easily been seen as something more to the eyes of someone. He realized how much time he spent with Judy outside of work. He realized that they already knew so much about each other. He had more to think over but Finnick's voice came through the phone.
"Don't worry, I have a plan, You get home and get changed and I'll pick you up, we have places to be"
Before he could respond, the line dropped dead and Nick could now go over his thoughts in peace. He realized how true his friend's words were and his feelings for the bunny were now more obvious to him. It was so obvious that it hurt him and it hurt him even more when he realized that she wasn't at his side but her smell had stayed on him from their hug earlier in the day.
He continued his walk but he moved at a slower pace that what he had before. Wanting as much time to himself and his thought.
He stopped and stood still when one particular thought entered his mind, and that was what Finnick could have meant when he said he had a plan and knowing Finnick, Nick could already predict that whatever it was that he wouldn't enjoy it but would still be roped into it no matter how much he resisted or what excuses he made.
AN:
So this is part one of a two-part mini story. Part two will be the next and is still being based off a song name which will be different. Part 2 will be Finnick's plan to "help" Nick
