"You know, Carrots, maybe this wasn't such a good idea."

"Come on, Scaredy Pants, this is gonna be fun."

"Define 'fun.'"

"Well, it's kinda too late now to get off, don't ya think?"

"Yeah…"

As Nick sighed, he continued to mentally reevaluate how he had gotten himself to the position he was currently in. When free time came about once again for both him and Judy, they made the decision to finally go ahead and check out the new amusement park that had opened up not too long ago. It had been a wonderful place to be in for the two of them, consisting of a lot of fun activities that the facility had to offer its visitors.

However, the ride that Nick had been dragged onto by his companion wasn't exactly the choice he would've made. They had an enjoyable playing some of the games set up and going on some of the seemingly tamer rides in the area, but the doe insisted that they both go on what was perhaps the largest coaster in the entire amusement park. There was barely anyone in line at the time she suggested riding it (the signs outside of the entrance stating that the wait time was approximately fifteen minutes), so she simply dragged Nick along to secure their spots.

Nick gripped his paws harder onto the sides of the harness securely latched over him, the clicking sounds of the coaster's ascension not making the situation any better. The cart climbed steadier and steadier, and within a few brief moments everything started to look tiny from the height in which they were now positioned. The coaster made a slow but swift right turn after it was carried to the peak of its height, letting Nick get a quick glimpse at just about every viewable square inch of the park, as well as some area away from it.

At the top of the hill, right near the first and very steep drop, the cart brought itself into a holding brake. The coaster seemed to be in a brief pause.

Don't look down, Nick thought. However, the vulpine didn't listen what his thoughts were issuing to him. As the fox sneaked a look downward, he heard a quick sound and the cart started to speedily descend. At the current moment, Nick felt weightless in his seat despite being strapped in by the harness around his body.

The sudden sensation of the rushing wind hit Nick's fur as the coaster flew downward and quickly over to a tall loop. The sounds of delighted yelps came from the other mammals that were positioned behind them. Nick's eyes dotted towards Judy, who had her paws up in the air as she laughed with glee. How is this enjoyable? he asked himself.

The coaster steadily continued onward, making a banked, upward turn before ascending up another hill. The ascension was milder than the first one, but still pretty tall for Nick's tastes. The drop came quickly as they picked up speed again.

Click!

An abrupt flash came from the left corner, coming from the cameras that took the pictures of the mammals on the coaster.

A sharp turn later, the ride completed its course and came back at the station they originally started in. Once it came to a complete stop, other mammals started to lift their harnesses up and start to exit as they made their way elsewhere.

Nick, his heart beating fast from the adrenaline rush he had just experienced, looked over at Judy. The doe hopped out from her seat and onto the platform that lead to the exit, a happy and ebullient smile radiating off of her muzzle as she gestured for Nick to follow her lead. The vulpine got out of where he was seated and joined his companion, his legs feeling like jelly as he stood up.


The fox and rabbit both walked out of where they had just exited. An establishment selling the amusement park's merchandise was in full swing, a line that consisted of a small group of mammals waiting patiently to get their purchases.

"I dunno, Slick," Judy said, "you were lookin' like you were pretty scared on that thing."

"It wasn't that bad, Carrots," Nick replied, completely in denial of his previous reaction.

"Then you wouldn't mind me asking you to go on it with me a second time, would you?"

"Yeah, I'm probably gonna have to pass on that offer, Fluff."

The doe giggled and shook her head as they got closer towards the small shop. "Of course."

As they walked away, Nick glared over at some small screens at the establishment were pictures that had been taken of those previously on the coaster, a corresponding number underneath each of them. The screen showed the two of them on the ride, with him donning a look that had a fair amount of fright to it. Seeing it for himself, all Nick could do was laugh under his breath at the look that was on his muzzle in the photograph.

"Now then, where shall we go next?"

"How about the ferris wheel?"

The idea of the relaxing ride in mind, the fox replied, "Right behind you, Fluff."

With that, the two strolled along and joined the crowds of visitors walking to and fro.
