Buxy walked in the mall, on her way to 'The Thrifty Rabbit' store. She intended to purchase a used cell phone and maybe a new outfit for herself for her date. After that, she had to meet her niece at 'The Bunnyhop Nightclub' later on that night.

'The Thrifty Rabbit' was a high end thrift store that sold used items and clothes that the prior rabbit owners didn't need anymore, due to them going through with a swallow event with the predator of their choice. It featured well maintained used items, and attracted a lot of rabbit shoppers interested in a bargain that they won't be using for long. Since Buxy didn't consider herself a member of the 'To-be-swallowed' group, she intended to get something affordable, but usable for a long time.

Buxy's old phone was lost when she tried to get swallowed by her special wolf Kenny. She barely escaped from the house they were in, leaving everything behind (not that she had that many things, due to her getting rid of everything in preparation to be swallowed.) The police managed to recover her ripped dress and purse from the house, but could not find her cell phone. One of the first things she purchased once she started to work at 'The Bunnyhop Nightclub' was a very cheap used cell phone. Due to it being old, it gave out a few days ago.

Buxy was anxious to call her sister, due to the frightening dream she had with Kenny in it. He mentioned something about her sister, and wanted to contact her as soon as possible to reassure herself that her sister was fine. And that meant a trip to the mall, and 'The Thrifty Rabbit'.

Buxy also had a date with her boyfriend Benny that day, and considered buying a nice outfit for it. She believed that she had enough money for both expenses, but wanted to find out what was available. It bugged her that she had to watch her spending, but she faithfully stuck to her budget.

Buxy entered 'The Thrifty Rabbit' and headed directly to the cell phone department. A lot of young adult rabbits crowded the place, hoping to get something nice at a great price. She approached the cell phone counter, and pulled out her old broken cell phone. Behind the counter stood a bored middle aged rabbit who said in a monotonous voice "Welcome to 'The Thrifty Rabbit'. How can I be thrifty for you today?"

Buxy placed her old phone on the counter and examined the phone inventory through the glass counter. "I need a new cell phone, please."

The sales rabbit said in the same monotonous voice "We don't have new phones. Only used ones." and waited for the next stupid question.

Buxy glared at the sales rabbit and held the broken phone up to him. "I need a phone newer than this, OK?" she snapped out in a sharp voice. "And it needs to work!"

Taken aback by her sharp response, the sales rabbit stuttered out "Oh... well... these... these are good..." He nervously motioned to the phones under the glass counter. Clearly, this wasn't the typical rabbit he usually encountered at work.

Buxy nodded with satisfaction, and surveyed the phones on display. After about ten minutes, she purchased her phone, and transferred her account to the new one. The sales rabbit entered the phone activation information into the computer, and told her that it would activate in two days. Buxy thanked him, recycled the broken phone, took her purchased phone and headed to the clothing portion of the store.

Buxy examined a nice dress in the women's' clothing area she found appealing. But despite the relatively low price of the dress, she didn't think she could justify the cost for now. She sighed out of sadness. Working at 'The Bunnyhop Nightclub' had its perks, one of which was that she could take possession of discarded clothing items that normally went to the thrift shops. But she couldn't always find something in her size, so she was limited in what she could acquire. She also didn't want to deplete her cash for the month, and be low on money until payday. At times, she hated living like a mature adult.

While she eyed the dress, Buxy heard a familiar voice behind her. "Hey there Buxy." She turned around with glee and saw her boyfriend Benny, along with two other rabbit friends who hung around their clique. Benny wore an expensive designer shirt that portrayed his fine taste in clothes, and his job salary. She walked up to him with a smile and gave him a big hug. Benny hugged back, while their two friends patted Buxy on the back. When they ended their hug, they pulled back, with Benny wrinkling his nose at her. "Geesh, you're still sleeping with that tiger?"

Buxy winced at that accusation. Every time they went out, she did everything she could to get rid of Steven Stripe's tiger scent from her body. But her clothes and fur tended to hold his smell no matter what she did. Benny kept on begging her not to associate with the tiger he smelled, but that was impossible since she worked at 'The Bunnyhop Nightclub' and slept with him. She did not tell Benny about where she worked of course, but couldn't hide Steven's smell from Benny.

Benny and his friends tended to look down on other rabbits who spent their time with predators. They mocked those type of rabbits as 'Future-TV-Dinners'. Of course, Buxy was exempt from this ridicule since she told them she wasn't interested in being swallowed, but the tiger's scent on her body always triggered non-friendly comments from her friends. On occasion, the other rabbits would sport a predator's scent now and then, but it wasn't as frequent as Buxy, or other 'Future-Meals-on-Feet' rabbits.

Benny didn't mind that Buxy slept with other furs. After all, rabbits tended to sleep around (what rabbit didn't?) However, he didn't like the continual tiger association that Buxy possessed. It seemed to be a special irritation under his fur that Buxy didn't understand.

Buxy said in her defense "Oh come on, it's nothing. We just have sex. He doesn't try to swallow me or anything. Nothing else." She always told this excuse, trying to reassure her friends she wasn't going to go down the road of swallow.

The other rabbit friends frowned at that comment. "Yeah, right. A tiger not interested in swallowing you down." said one of the rabbits. "Maybe he'll gulp a different 'TV-dinner' rabbit and have you for dessert." That comment hurt Buxy, but she kept silent. "Hey Benny, we'll head out." said the other rabbit. "See you at the sex party tomorrow night." They waved as they left.

Benny and Buxy waved goodbye to the two rabbits. Benny was going to host a good ole fashion sex party tomorrow at his place, and of course, Buxy was invited. It wasn't going to be as big as a typical sex party, since their group of friends weren't that numerous, but everyone would enjoy it. Normally, rabbit sex parties occurred with 40+ rabbits, along with a few other species invited for variety, along with a few token carnivores. Normally at a sex party, a rabbit or two would be gulped down by that special predator, with the others watching and waving goodbye. But Benny's sex party would NOT have that aspect. Rabbits of the 'to-be-swallowed' category were not invited nor welcomed. Birth control was always mandatory, of course.

Benny and Buxy held paws as they walked out the thrift shop. "So, how are you doing, Buxy? Ready for our date today?" The two of them planned a salad date at a new restaurant that opened up near there in two hours.

Buxy squeezed his paw back. "Yep. And, I'll meet you there. I just need to get a few more things."

The two of them walked paw-in-paw in the mall, looking at different shops, doing small talk. Suddenly out of the blue, Benny asked Buxy "So, when am I going to meet this Steven tiger of yours?"

Buxy winced at the direct question. She ASBSOLUTELY did not want her two worlds to collide. Benny and the clique he belonged to did not want to be swallowed, nor associate with that element in life. Steven owned a carnivore bar, a nightclub that catered to predators wanting to eat a rabbit, and rabbits wanting to be eaten. The two did not mix. She stopped, faced him and said in a very direct voice "Never. He's just a friend. That's all."

Benny wasn't a timid rabbit himself, and pursued the subject. "Well, I just want to check him out. You spend time with him a lot, and..." he shrugged. "...I love you."

Buxy smiled at the three words. She leaned in and kissed him. "And I love you, Benny. But 'No' means 'No'."

Benny blew out air in resignation. "Yeah, yeah..." Then, his eyes lit up. "I know. Why don't you invite him to the sex party tomorrow night? He'd enjoy that. Then we can all meet him."

Buxy winced again. He's really being pushy, she thought. She also knew that sex parties were essentially a rabbit's domain, and it would give him the social advantage over any predator. I'll just push back, she said to herself. "No way. Besides, he wouldn't like it." She gave a pleading smile to Benny. "Please, drop it."

Benny sensed he wasn't getting anywhere on the issue. "Yeah, yeah, OK, I'll drop it." He leaned in and kissed her deep. Buxy enjoyed the passionate kiss, wrapped her arms around him and sank into the energy of it. When they parted, he said "But, you know, we will meet. It's inevitable."

Buxy gave Benny a sexy half smile as she squeezed his ass. "No, you never will."

Right then, Buxy heard a familiar voice behind her "Hey there Buxy, whose your friend?" It was the voice of her boss Steven Stripes. Panic gripped her heart as she turned to face him. Steven dressed in sloppy jeans and a t-shirt. He possessed two shopping bags full of bar supplies and alcohol. He had the shopping bags on the ground while he rubbed his shoulder, and looked at the two rabbits.

Immediately, Benny released Buxy, interposed himself between Buxy and Steven and put out his paw. "So, you're Steven?" he said with a forced smile and a stiff voice. He sniffed the air to confirm the scent.

Steven glared down at the annoying rabbit between him and Buxy. "Yeah, I am. And you're... um..." He grasped his paw and vigorously pumped the rabbit's arm with a too tight paw squeeze. "You're..." He sniffed the air and confirmed the rabbit's scent he smelled on Buxy before. He gave his own forced smile.

Buxy watched the competing males in a panic. How do I stop this, she wondered.

Benny winced from the muscled grip. When they released, Benny yanked back his paw and gave Steven the 'one-two' look over while he shook out his paw. He bravely looked up at the tiger and said in an abrupt forceful voice "Benny. I'm Benny." He stepped back, put his arm around Buxy's shoulder and pulled her into himself. "I'm Buxy's boyfriend." He sported a very satisfied look.

Steven's eye narrowed on Benny as his smile lessened. In a smooth controlled voice he replied "Of course... Benny." He straightened up to his full height and glared down at him. "She told me about you... when we were in bed together." He returned the 'one-two' look at Benny with a smile. "You know... sex?"

Benny frowned at that. "Ah yes, that tiger... right..." He tightened his grip on Buxy's shoulder a bit more.

Buxy was not happy about this. She forced her smiling muscles to maintain composure in the face of panic. She chanted a thousand 'Tiger-shut-up-and-go-away' charms in her head.

Steven noted the tightened grip on Buxy and grimaced. He began to rub his very large and muscled shoulder that was larger than Benny's own puny arm, and moved his arm about in slow exaggerated motion. While looking down at Benny and Buxy (mostly at Benny), he asked "So, what brings the two of you here?"

Benny's eyes widened while he noted the large muscles that Steven possessed, and knew he was obviously showing off. Although Benny himself was physically fit, he didn't possess that level of muscle development. He straightened his expensive designer shirt that he could afford to purchase, since he was a successful program manager (and was much nicer than Steven's sloppy t-shirt), and said "I'm getting a few things at the mall. I ran into Buxy at the thrift shop ..." He grasped her paw and squeezed. "...and we have a date later on... me and my girlfriend..."

Buxy squeezed Benny's paw back, and desperately wished for some form of distraction that would tear the two competing males away from each other. Her smiling muscles cried out for relief.

Steven saw the expensive shirt that Benny wore. He glanced down at his own sloppy t-shirt and frowned. "I see..." he replied. He returned his piercing tiger gaze to Benny and said "Well, tonight Buxy and I will be at the bar." He smiled wide. "My bar, which she works at!"

Buxy shut her eyes as Steven treaded on dangerously close information that she didn't want Benny to know about. PleaseShutUpPleaseShutUpPLEASESHUTUPPLEASESHUTUP!!! She chanted in her head.

Benny frowned again. "Yeah... yeah..." His eyes lit up as he thought of his earlier idea, and to gain the upper social hand. "Hey I know, I'm hosting a sex party tomorrow night. Why don't you come?" He casually draped his arm about Buxy's shoulder. "Then you can meet Buxy's and my friends? Our CLOSE friends?" He eyed the bags of bar supplies and alcohol that Steven possessed and smirked.

Buxy's heart sank as one member of her realm invited another member of a different realm. She wanted to scream, but forced herself to stay calm. Her smiling muscles twitched.

Steven rubbed his chin while he looked down at Benny. "A sex party? Tomorrow? Yeah, I think I will." He glanced at Buxy. "Buxy and I will arrive together. Right?"

Buxy's heart sank again as the other member of that realm accepted the invite. She was not happy. She rapidly nodded her head but didn't say anything.

Benny released Buxy and stepped up to Steven. He forcefully said "Good... then WEEEE will expect you. But remember..." He switched to a louder voice and jabbed a finger at Steven's chest. "...NO eating rabbits at this sex party! Got it tiger?"

Steven glared down at the rabbit with annoyance. "Not a problem. Not a problem at all." He leaned forward a bit, looked almost directly down on Benny and said "I don't eat rabbits who don't want to be eaten, little rabbit."

Benny did his best to return the gaze to the towering tiger over him. Not doing that well, he stepped back and draped his arm about Buxy's shoulder. "Good. OUR group of rabbits are not the kind who wish to be eaten."

Steven folded his arms with satisfaction. "Well... you rabbits don't wish to be eaten? I guess I'll never see you at the..."

Too close, Too close, thought Buxy. She yelled out "STEVEN!!!" Her tension level high, she lost part of her smile.

Steven and Benny looked at Buxy confused.

Buxy forced herself to a calmer voice. "Um... shouldn't... you be going now? That arm of yours looks sore..." She willed the striped carnivore to skedaddle with all her rabbit might.

Steven bent down, grabbed his bags and nodded. "Yeah, yeah, I will. Got to get back, and..." He looked at Benny with irritation "...Buxy and I will arrive at your party tomorrow." He stepped up to Benny and leaned over him slighty. "Together."

Benny glared back up at Steven. "Good. It will be fun." He tightened his grip on Buxy's shoulder.

Steven sneered, turned and headed out with his shopping bags.

Benny turned to a still-twitching Buxy and said "Hey Buxy, don't worry. Everything will be OK. You'll see." He kissed her forehead.

Buxy forced herself to calm down. She looked up at him and smiled. "Like I said, I didn't want you two to meet." She said with a smirk. But still, she hated the chaos the situation created. At times like this, she wished her special wolf was still alive. He would keep me safe, she said to herslf.

Benny laughed. "And like I said, it was inevitable." He pulled her in close to his body and hugged. "Please don't worry Bucks. I'll keep ya safe." He said the last part in a rough and unrefined manner.

Buxy fell into the warm embrace of his arms. She closed her eyes and began to feel safe again. Even though her world almost fell apart, she could always count on him. "Thank you." She mumbled to his brown polo shirt, which covered his brown furred muscular chest. She gave a gentle playful pinch to his muscled ass, and lightly caressed his long canine tail. The wolf scent she breathed in reminded her of feeling safe and protected.

His muscled brown furred arms wrapped tight around her body, as if she belonged to him. She breathed the wolfy odor like it was the most enticing scent ever. It reminded her of the best sex she ever had, with Kenny. His clawed paws clutched her body, like a wolf's paws should. She knew pretty soon that he would eat her, and then she would be safe...

Buxy's eyes popped open as she noticed her train of thought. 'he would eat her...' But, Benny is a rabbit... and has white fur... not brown... and no canine tail... she stepped back with a start and took a look at who she was next to.

Before her stood Kenny. He wore a cheap brown polo shirt and jeans, exactly as she remembered him. He smiled at her with a toothy grin that bore into her soul, and his mismatched eyes stared at her with a wolf's hunger. "Hiyas Bucks. I'm gonna keep ya safe." He said to her in his unrefined voice. "I'm gonna eat cha..." He stepped toward her with his paws reaching out to her.

Buxy backed away out of fear. "No... Kenny... no..." She longed to fall into his embrace and give her body to him, but her fear took over.

Benny stepped up to her and took ahold of her shoulders. "Buxy? Buxy? Are you all right?"

Buxy shook her head and looked about herself. She could not smell any wolf near her, and could see no sign of a wolf near her. She stared into Benny's face and studied his features. White fur, handsome face, strong confident demeanor, gray eyes... "I'm... I'm ok..."

Benny looked down at her. "Who is 'Kenny'?" He held her shoulders, with concern in his eyes.

Buxy shuddered at the vision. She almost believed that Benny was Kenny. "He... he's no one..." Of course, she never told Benny about her special wolf, or that she was almost swallowed. She looked down at the ground in contemplation.

Benny knelt down to her level. He looked her in the eye. "What's going on?" He raised her head to his eye level. "I love you. Please, talk to me."

Buxy felt trapped. She did not want to say that Kenny was her special wolf, who died while swallowing her down. "It... he..." her speaking rhythm broke. "...he was someone who didn't work out..." At least that is the truth, she told herself.

Benny stood up and embraced her. "Ah, my Buxy. An old boyfriend, huh? Well, if you don't mind, I'm personally glad it didn't work out."

Buxy nodded. "I am glad too." she said. She only half believed her own statement. Part of her longed for the wolf.

The two parted, Benny stood up straight and held her paws. Buxy said "I'm fine. Really." She bravely smiled at him. "I'll finish up shopping, and then meet you at the restaurant."

Benny nodded. "OK, Buxy. I'll see you later." He pulled her toward him and gave a passionate kiss. Buxy closed her eyes and enjoyed the strong passion of his body and lips. Afterwards, they parted. "Bye." He said. The two parted.

Buxy stood in the middle of the mall as furs walked past her, intent on going on with their life, their business. She contemplated what she saw for a number of minutes. "It was just a dream," she said out loud. "It was nothing." She resolved to push that part of her life permanently into the past.

A familiar rough and unrefined voice from behind her said "Yeah? Was it Bucks?"

Buxy spun around to face that voice. Before her stood Kenny, dressed the same way she always remembered him. Furs walk by, unaware of the strange situation of the pair. Buxy stepped back, and sputtered out "Ke... Kenny... what's going on?"

Kenny stepped toward her and held his arms out to her. "Wha cha mean 'What goin' on' Bucks? I'm gonna eat cha, and keep ya safe."

Buxy stepped back from him. "But... but... I don't wanna be eaten..." She stared at him with eyes fully wide in surprise.

Kenny dropped his arms and looked at her surprised. "But, he's commin' after ya, Bucks. He hurt yer sister, and I gotta keep ya safe from him." He held a paw out to her. "Now, c'mon, let me eat cha."

Buxy began to panic at the second mention of her sister. "Who? Who hurt my sister? How do you know about my sister?"

Visibly flustered, Kenny barked out "I don't got time fer this!" He glanced to his side and said "Too late! You gotta hide!" Quicker than Buxy could respond, he stepped up to her, and pushed her hard.

Buxy fell over and slid on the floor to behind a kiosk counter. She scrambled to right herself up. When she did, she glared at Kenny, but could not see him around. Craning her neck side to side, she could not spot Kenny anywhere at all. Flustered, she began to stand up from behind the kiosk counter when she spotted a brown furred wolf that set her instincts on full alert. She ducked behind the kiosk and peek around the corner, as the wolf walked by on the other side.

The brown furred wolf dressed in old clothes and the look on his face terrorized her to the core. He looked disheveled, dressed in old clothing, and Buxy noticed that he missed one eye, as if he lost it in a fight. As he walked, he turned his head side to side with an angry glare, scanning all the rabbits he viewed as if he was searching for someone. She knew in her heart that he was looking for her and she kept herself out of his site. She hid from the wolf until she saw that he walked out of view.

Very shaken, Buxy slowly stood up and assessed her situation. Although she did not recognize the wolf, she knew in her heart that he was after her. Her instincts would not let up on that fact. She realized that Kenny just saved her. He kept me safe, she thought to herself. But, Kenny is dead. How could he be here now? She craned her head about, trying to look for him, but he was nowhere to be found.

Buxy shook her body out, still flustered. I didn't imagine that, she said to herself. He is here, and alive. And, he knows something. But how do I contact him? She had no idea about his phone number, his last name, or even where he lived. She had a sudden thought. Wait, he's in that brown house. She shook her head again. No, no, that house is abandoned. He must have squatted there, and asked me to go there, all those months ago.

Not getting anywhere with the logic dead-ends in her head, she decided to give up on the immediate solution. Looking down the mall alley way to make sure the scary one-eyed wolf wasn't around, she took off in the other direction. I'll just get my other things later on, hide out in the bookstore until my date, then head to the restaurant.

And, she DID NOT want to tell Benny that Kenny was back and alive. Shaking with indecision, she headed toward the bookstore. She planned to do a lot of thinking while at the bookstore.
