The cosy blankets was all he wanted at that moment, drifting in his dreams, not a care in the world... Walking on a beach, seeing a figure on the horizon walking towards him. He didn't know who this fur was, but he knew he wanted to meet him. Feeling the soft sand beneath his paws, the wind gently waving through his fur and the sound of the waves crashing down, forming a melody in his ears, he drew ever closer to this wolfish figure. Nothing but peace surrounded him. Puzzled by this peace he decided to sit on the shimmering. 'This doesn't feel like me, this peace, why am I not bored with this?' he asks himself as he watches a crab scurry away from the sapphire water. Making circles in the sand with his one finger, he almost lost himself in the complete beauty of the situation, and then fell flat on his back feeling the sand enter into his pelt. 'This is going to take forever to wash and brush out' the thought but then 'oh well' he said out loud and started to make a sand angel, feeling the sand falling all over him. He giggled and then then he tilted his head to the side. The figure reappeared in the corner of his eye and a massive smile appeared on his Face. 'Ty' he thought, and with that faith full thought he leaped for joy, running towards the figure. Thinking of all the wonderful memories he had with this wolf, this majestic, smart, cunning and charming wolf. What he could say to this wolf the wolf who he loves... With his eyes closed he reached for the wolf paw, but when he did, he saw his face, muzzle totally covered in blood. 'Ty... What ha...' he could not finish his sentence before Ty shook him awake 'You have to wake up!!' Ty yelled with a historical notion in his voice. Alex opened his eyes and smelt the fumes of a burning building flooding his nose. Leaping out of bed he desperately grabbed Ty's hand as they started to run towards the exit. Through the fiery halls and burning rooms, down the hall past all the other apartments. And as they ran, Alex herd the screams of panic. It was evident that trouble was stirring here, but why here, why now, after all these years. How? 'SHIT' Ty said aloud as they faced the fiery stare case. Now way past it now way around it 'we have to go back' tie said shocked as he grabbed Alex by the arm... Running through the corridors fighting their way through the fire, it seemed so hopeless. But it all became just too much for Alex as they passed the smith residence, and a small fox body was laying on the ground, lifeless, empty. Death. Alex froze and entered into a state of shock, not knowing what to do, feeling the emotions burst through him like a explosion of grief sadness, and horror. 'Alex we have to mo....' and on those faithful words, the ceiling gave in, with the burning furnace falling down on them it simply all went black...

'OK ladies and Gents, we have arrived at our destination, welcome to summer city, Nubron. The time is 10:22 pm the 18th of august' the bus driver said over the irritating speaker just in time as Alex could not take any more of the annoying little girl kicking his seat and the guy next to him snoring it up and drooling all over his favourite t-shirt. He jumped up to the window with extreme excitement and looked around at the beautiful high buildings and the friendly sunlight hitting the windows to form a perfect reflection of the world around in full spectrum of the rainbow colours. As the colours collide, Alex could not maintain his thoughts, so many possibilities, so much opportunities, what a place to be, what a life to live. Not that he hated life in Riverton, it was a pretty town and he had his friends there, live was always good to him, but he had to get out, get away, and start over. Especially after the incident. 'Let it begin' He said with a smile, but then took a knock to the head as the guy next to him woke from his sleep with quite a shock. His last thoughts 'ouch'...

'Hey.... Hey... You have to wake up silly' a girls voice spoke as Alex felt a digit poking him on the head. Opening one eye he saw a white fox waving at him. 'The bus almost left with you on it' she said. 'Whaaaaat???' Alex leapt to his feet. The husky rampaged and wanted to take the head off the guy who knocked him out without reason but soon stopped at the giggle of the fox 'what you lathing at?' he said with a irritated look on his face. 'Your fun. I'm June by the way. This your first time in Nubron heh?' she said smiling. 'How did you know?' Alex replied, 'armature... I'm a resident, I've seen this thing a million times over, someone coming to the big city to live life to the full and to make cash' she pointed to Alex smiling as he lowered his head. 'So what's your name?' she asked with a very curious tone. 'Alex, and yes, I AM FROM A SMALL TOWN, I AM HERE TO LIVE THE LIFE AND I WILL NOT BE ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE ANNOYING STATISTICS' he rampaged. 'Again with the funny, hehehe, whatever you say. Well ALEX... You are lucky, it's my off day and I haven't decided what to do with my time yet, and since you make me laugh, I'll be your guide' she said with a smirk. 'Guide?' Alex whispered 'GUIDE?!!, WHY THE HELL DO I WANT A GUIDE????' he rampaged, but then she took him by the arm, pulled him out of the bus and shoved him into the street. Alex couldn't make head or tales what was going on, so many people, so many cars, so man y shops, so many lights..... The voices, everything was just too much 'YIPES' he yelled jumping back into the bus. The fox standing there with a smirk 'that's the hell why'

A few minutes later they were walking on the pavement besides the road, June had managed to get them out of the big city rumble. Strolling down the street almost silver as the sun rays hit it perfectly with the view of the ocean peeking out down the long street, Alex was carrying his small bag and his guitar. 'So this place you found, how much did you say you have to pay for it?' June asked as she searched for the street Alex gave her. 'Well its sharing a apartment with someone else, a guy named Sed, but its only 200 per month and I have to buy my own food' and with that said, June stopped and smacked Alex across the head with rage in her voice 'YOU ARE TELLING ME THAT YOU ARE GOING TO SHARE AN APARTMENT WITH A GUY THAT YOU NEVER EVEN MET, AND ALSO YOU ARE GOING TO PAY ONLY 200 PER MONTH.... That's like nothing. The place is going to be a total dump.' 'Well it is really cheap, and I don't have allot of money, besides I'm 'here to live the LIFE' remember...' he mocked. They walked on and conversed about the possible conditions that the apartment may be in, when June stopped dead in her tracks as they almost reached the end of the street 'did you say 22 Barlow Street?' 'Yea' 'hmm, this is going to be interesting... Barlow street is very upper class.... Maybe your potential roommate is a serial killer' She said suspiciously. 'Relax' they walked and reached Barlow Street at the sea shore and went down to nr 22. They both stopped and looked at the beautiful tower of apartments. Alex could not contain his excitement, and started running up and down up and down. Alex dialled nr 5, and a strong male voice spoke 'hey, I can't handle both of you at the same time *giggle* hey who is this?' Alex gave a nervous reply 'Uhm... Hehe well... I'm here for the apartment, I mean the rental of the room, I mean' 'its ok, just come on up. Alex and June went up and the door to nr 5 was already open, the smell of oil was in the air and a strong male voice was giggling and screaming at the same time. They entered the apartment and saw a bit of a chubby white tiger freaking out whilst handling frying pans and all sorts of culinary mayhem. Alex was interested to meet this person and simply waved and said: 'hi, I'm Alex, and this is June, you must be...' 'Yea, I'm Sed. Mind giving me a hand?'

'Ok this is it, test day, 17 august, I will kill you, I will own you, I will become the greatest no matter what' the grey wolf was trying to psyche himself up. Doing the last of his push ups almost reaching 500. 'Ok, now I just need to go for that jog' he said out loud. 'Jog, again? You started off with a 5 km' a doberman asked in a joking way. 'Yea, I will own thing' the Wolf replied whilst adding another 2 kg waits to his legs, his body lean and cut, not to over muscular, but just perfect. 'And nothing will stop me, not even my past' the wolf said in a serious voice. 'Hey Ty, relax man, I'm sure you will do great, you studied more than anyone I know, you exercised even harder than me' the doberman replied in cheerful voice. Ty left the room and started to jog, with Dober's last words running through his mind: 'what if I didn't study hard enough? I must be the best, nothing can stop me, I will be better than that guy, I will protect others from what happened to me, I will be the best' as the thoughts ran through his mind he started to jog even faster, sweat dripping down his fur as he pushes his body towards its limits. He all most forgot he was running at all, the thoughts was all cluttered up in his mind as he ran along the shoreline, sand scattering everywhere as he preses energy into his perfectly formed muscles. Most people knew to stay out of Ty's way, especially when he was in one of these moods. He tends to get a little reckless and push himself to his limit, and when someone comes in his way, he identifies them as a threat, and becomes offencive. Ty ran and ran, he ran over the beach and then onto the garden route and then he got back onto the sidewalk, and then without looking in front of him, so consumed in his thoughts and the task at hand WHAM. "yipes" a voice uttered as Ty and another fur's body collapse into a almost car crash motion, papers flying everywhere. Ty almost instantly jumped up from the ground 'hey what the hell, watch where your walking man' but then he saw the poor skinny wolf on the floor with all the papers everywhere almost knocked making a moaning noise of pain. The hart Ty got soft for only a few seconds, and lightning fast picked up the papers, stacked them next to the wolf and reached out his hand 'hey buddy, you ok?' He asked whilst asking himself the simple question: what the hell am I doing, this person who lend a hand to the skinny wolf on the floor is not like him, the hard, unbreakable, untouchable, proud wolf. 'Huh?... Uhm' the wolf replied in a confused voice 'yea thanks, my muzzle is a bit sore but I'll be fine thanks, I've been through much worse...' the small wolf giggled. 'I'm glad' Ty replied pulling the wolf up from the floor and when their hands touched he could almost swear he felt something he never felt before, a strange feeling inside him, something new, something almost unreal. 'Thanks, I'm Alex, nice to meet you, I guess this isn't the conventional way of meeting people but anyway' the wolf giggled again. Ty found the wolf a little bit irritating, talking way too much, but there was something about him, something he wanted to know, he wanted to meet this fur. 'I'm TY' he said politely 'here is your papers'. 'Oh those, well I was about to throw them away, my roommate is a little bit of a hoarder, these are all scrap paper of I don't know what' Alex said whilst taking the papers from Ty. 'You talk allot hey?' Ty said with a sudden kindness in his eye. 'Oh sorry about that, I think I have ADD or whatever you call it, this is my first day here and....' As Alex rambled on and on and on, Ty wondered what was going on, why does this irritating, energetic little wolf fascinate him so, why can't he let go of his paw and why isn't he mad anymore, must be the endorphins from the jog, or perhaps he really did drive himself too far. All the sudden he herd another voice coming from the house close by 'hey dude, see you met my new roomie' Sed yelled out of the window 'don't you have that big test today? Good luck hay' oh crap, the test, he can't be late, never. 'Ok nice meeting you Alex, got to go' he said running back to the gym 'nice meeting you, what's your name?' Alex asked out of curiosity. 'Ty' and then he vanished behind the corner.

Alex walks back into the house rubbing his muzzle, 'you ok huh?' Sed asked whilst flipping a pancake into the air, not really interested in his new roommate's bleeding nose. 'You know Ty?' And with that question Sed flipped the pancake onto a plate 'sure, you want one? I mean a pancake?' as he placed the pancake almost perfectly on the plate like a extreme perfectionist. Alex wiped the spot of blood from his nose, 'hmm well he ran into me and at first I was scared because he seemed very demanding and dominating, but then a sutle kindness followed, he even picked up the scrap papers.' Ale said excitably. At that Sed started to laugh aloud 'HAH! Ty, Kindness.... Not in the same category... Let's just say that he has got some serious issues. I know him from high school, he was a total jock and a stubborn guy, never really understood him, but when he gets drunk, then he is simply entertaining, what a loon. Kind of reminds me of you, just with less ADD Sid said with a feline arrogance. 'Less ADD, hay no fair, don't mock my behaviour, besides, the world needs people like me, we brighten up life' Alex swiftly replied whilst poking at Sed. Sed of course did not care the least, he was totally focused on the work at hand, making the perfect pancake, the feline was a total perfectionist, everything was perfect in his house, nothing out of place, a total neat freak as well. 'Whatever' he just said at Alexs over rampaging and insanely fast talking conversation. Sed knew well how to ignore people like Alex, simply throw in sudden words like 'ok' or 'uhu' and 'really' and the other person will simply continue to talk, it works on his sister with A.D.D and on his mom, so why not with his new roomy. 'You are ignoring me' Alex said out loud with his arms crossed. Sed simply swished his tail and said 'DUR' in a sarcastic way. Alex didn't really mind he knew sometimes he can be a little much, so he asked the question directly 'Hey Sed, I've been meaning to ask, why are you sharing this house with someone for so little money?' Sed finally found a proper conversation and smiled 'well... You see, I have everything I need, there is allot of people in this world that doesn't have what I have, I received the best education, have an amazing family with allot of money, everything is perfect in my life, and I know that the need in the world is way too big, so this is my way of giving someone the chance to experience life on the good side, because I know that it can be very dark and gloomy' Alex could not comprehend this so he uttered the words he accidentally say what he thought (which happens allot by the way) 'So I'm some sort of charity???'. The feline smiled. 'If you want to put it that way, yea. But back to Ty... Weird that you found kindness in him, he usually will just keep on jogging, no matter who he runs over, he once ran over Junes boyfriend, now that was something to see.' 'Why?' Alex replied as he fell down on the couch picking up the guitar and playing a few chords. 'Well you see. June's boyfriend is a little bit of a Jerk, don't get me wrong but the guy thinks he's the cream of the crop, HAY! Don't put your paws on the couch!!!!!' and at that moment Alex had to duck as a knife came flying past him hitting the floor, slowly he peeked out from behind the couch. 'Dam it, now look what you've done, I'll need to get the floor fixed, please pass me my knife so that I can continue my cooking' the feline said in a calm way. Alex had no idea what just happened but he picked up the knife and carried it back to Sed. 'Anyway, let's just say, a guy like me wasn't really friends with a guy like Ty, he as a Jock and I was more like a cooking nerd, but oh well, he's a cool guy, I mean once you start to get to know him' Alex had no idea what Sed was talking about but he just gave the knife back to him, making a mental note not to put his paws.... Anywhere. He walked up to his room and sat down on the bed, his thoughts as busy as always, why haven't I received any news from any jobs, no interviews, no news from universities, nothing... I need to find some sort of work. Also he could not get the kind eyes of Ty out of his mind, and also of course his body, what a guy, what a guy, he thought whilst closing his eyes to think of Alex again. He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket, and he jumped to his feet, looking at the message: From June. *Hey A, got any work yet? Me and Nathan is going to the peer this afternoon, I know you haven't found any work yet because I know Nubron, hahaha. So see you at the peer at 3 pm. Don't be lazy!* Alex raised one brow, 'who the hell is Nathan?' he said softly to himself. Thinking of the eventful two days he had, coming to the big city, meeting a few interesting people, June, Sed that Chubby, Neat freak perfectionist hording feline, and now Ty... Already his life is more interesting then in Rverton.

Ty ran back to the Gym as Dober and the others yelled at him 'hay you missed your goal by like 5 min, what's up with that' Ty kept a poker face and headed towards the shower, only 50 min left until test time. Dober came into the shower as well, 'ok man, so you ready for the test?' 'You know me, I will become an inspector, I will, and I'll be better than that person' Ty replied instantly whilst showering off the sweat from his 10 km jog, his perfectly cut body totally drenched with water. Dober was a bit confused but he knew not to interfere, because once Ty gets into this mood, there is no stopping him, nothing gets in his way and survives. 'Ok, well I'm still a little nervous for the physical, but you'll ace it heh. I'm going to do great with the academic through' Ty didn't really care about Dobers chit chatter, his mind was focused on the test at hand and also, what did he feel with that little wolf called Alex. It was on his mind the whole time. He finished up and put on his police outfit. He waited a whole year for this test, and he isn't going to go for another year of walking streets facing petty crimes, handling cats in trees or simple kid fights. He wanted to be in the real deal, his own desk, his own cases, and no more petty idiots that want to make chitter chatter. He finished up and walked to the test centre. First there was the Academic test, easy stuff, laws, rights of the people, protocols, and so on. Ty didn't think twice to answer the questions, he knew he was right, he filled all the papers in and was the first to finish. He submitted his paper to the test overseer, and then left as cool as can be, whilst the others all nervously twitch and scratched on their pages. Then came the interview, he was first, based on his quick writing of the academic test, staying cool he answers all the boards questions, not hesitating once to be totally honest as he would handle every situation correctly and responsibility as they gave him different scenarios. And then last came the physical test. A vigorous assault course with firearms, the perfect test for Ty, individual, as he prefers it. He shot every target right on the spot, and completed the time whilst breaking the record. 'Too easy' he said with a cool attitude to the examiner, as he handed in the 9mm back. He didn't really care for the chatter of the rest of the people around him, he knew that he aced this test, now there is only one thing left, to wait, wait for the results. He retired to his room, alone as he always liked it, not a cat in the world. Grabbing a quick microwave meal and eating in total silence. Only one thought now remained, 'who is this Alex person, I never seen him before during patrols, and what was that when I touched him, what did I feel?' he puzzled it in his mind but then decided to go lie down, maybe a nap is in order. Nope, not that. So he decided to go for a walk, stripping off his police outfit, and throwing on a t-shirt with a pair of jeans. 'Maybe ill go walk on the beach, to cool my nerves down a little bit' he said out loud to himself.

*********

Alex walked to the peer, and all the sudden herd the voice June yelling 'YAHOOOO OVER HERE CLUMSY!!' whilst waving her hands in the air. 'Damn, she might even be louder than me... I sure make interesting friends' Alex said aloud as he walked towards them. When he approached he saw June hand in hand with a big muscular Tiger. 'This is my boyfriend Nathan, Nathan, I've told you about Alex'. They both greeted each other by shaking paws, but Nathan squeezed Alex's hand so tight he almost thought he'd hat to amputate it. 'H....h..... Hi' Alex said in pain. 'Nice to meet you Lil' buddy' Nathan said with a smile. After all the formalities was over, they sat down on one of the benches on the peer, and started to chat about everything and anything, and then the topic came up: 'so, you don't have a girl?' Nathan said, interested. Alex felt his heart jump to his throat as he didn't know how to reply, and yet again without thinking: 'naww... I'm not interested in girls' with a blush so intense you could see it right through his fur. There was an awkward silence and then June said: 'oh relationships too complicated for you huh?' with a cheerful tone in her voice. Nathan replied in a very friendly way as well: 'don't worry, the right one will come at the right time hey'. 'No, it's not that, it's kind of...' before Alex could complete his sentence Ty came walking onto the peer, without any expression on his face clearly way deep in his thoughts. Alex jumped underneath the bench, making June and Nathan, extremely confused. 'Hey buddy, what's wrong you saw a gun or something??' Nathan asked. June was of course way more observant and detected that Alex couldn't take his eyes off Ty. 'Oooh I see, your Gay'. Alex jumped up from under the bench, and started to rampage with allot of words, speaking too fast to understand 'DON'T PUT IT LIKE THAT' and then he went on and on and on. Until Nathan finally calmed him down: 'hey man, don't worry its cool. You're in the big city now. Maybe in Riverton you hard to be scared about it, but here we all understand, and it's cool, your life partner is your life partner. And it doesn't matter if they are K9, ore feline, so why should it matter what sex they are, love the person, the spirit, not the body, June taught me that'. Nathan is a really supportive guy, always helping where he can and since he was a psychologist, he knew people well and how to handle situations. June snuggled up close to Nathan and said 'I've been watching the way you look at me and Nathan, don't tell me you don't want what we have, companionship, love, someone to care about and who cares about you.' she said in a kind way looking Nathan deep in the eyes and then back at Alex 'and I know Ty, he is a very private person, but if you like him why not take a chance? I mean you mentioned before that you two RAN (extra climax on the 'ran') into each other, perhaps that was destiny's way of telling you something'. 'But how? I was never in a relationship, I don't know anything about him, or how to even talk to a guy, like in a flirty way or anything' Alex said trying to evade the inevitable, but at that point June got up and forced him to the end of the peer were Ty was standing with his arms crossed looking at the horizon 'let's just start with simple hi, ok?' She pushed him off and then sat down next to Nathan again, and when it looked like Alex tried to evade, she simply poked her finger at him and said 'GO'. Alex could feel his heart pounding like crazy, sweat starting to roll down his brow and a strange feeling of hope and fear at the same time building up inside of him. He walked up to where Ty was standing, and then simply said 'Hi' with a nervous tone.
