A one off story that I'm not going to continue unless people want it to. Walking Dead/Digi Dead part 3 will continue on February 10th and so on.


There was a kingdom of foxes in the middle of the country. The castle was dead center of the kingdom and surrounding it were the common place foxes. The prince was a young fox named Alex. He had light bright fur and a long tail. His ears perked high up as well. In his room were various golden treasures and trinkets, including golden rings, urns, and other rare collectables. He sat on his bed which had golden designed holding poles holding up a well-designed top cover and yet he would constantly sigh. All this material stuff was just there and had no actual value to him. The king would have the royal jesters attempt to cheer him up but nothing worked. When he was allowed outside the guards would guide him along a cobblestone path around the castle grounds. Nothing could seem to cheer Alex up. He never saw outside the castle walls. Alex would remain silent his but his dreams would allow him to imagine the strangeness of the world outside. His days were just a cycles of getting up, getting dressed, eating breakfast, education, dinner, entertainment and setting up for bed to wait for the next day. He took off his flashy golden garb pressing his back against the bed hard. Sometimes he would stay awake just looking up at the ceiling until he tired out.

Outside the castle in which the higher ups called the slums there was a little rascal fox named Darien who was running from the guards with a small little bag in hand. He ran through the alleyways working his way to the rooftops hopping on an urn to a wooden plank reaching the top of a hut. This fox had grey fur and had ragged brown cloths on. His daily adventures would always change as he had to find new ways around to avoid being caught. However this was the first time he climbed over the castle wall to prevent being caught as the guards persuaded him more and more each time. He worked up close to the castle and was forced to climb up the grey stone wall. Alex was already asleep and Darien made his way up to the prince's room. He climbed inside going to the left were the prince's huge closet room. He hid inside as the guards gathered ladders and set them up against the wall; they climbed up and went inside. One of the guards called out to the prince, "My prince, have you seen a trespasser in here?" Alex sat up and rubbed his eyes, "What's this..." The guard repeated, "My prince, have you seen a trespasser in here?" Alex got upset, "No, I'm the only one in here. If you do wake me again, I'll tell my daddy and you'll pay." The guard knelt down, "I apologize my prince." The guards left bringing the ladder back down, Alex turned to his right trying to fall asleep again. Darien came out of the closet feeling most gracious thinking that the prince covered for him. Darien went closer to the bed, "Thank you." Alex froze in place. Now he felt as though he would be kidnapped as his father warned him that was all outsiders would do. Darien continued, "That was a good cover. Please allow me to thank you." Alex slowly turned and lifted his sheets down a few inches; he turned over to see the grey fox. He was most likely the same age and didn't seem threating at all. Alex looked down at the bag and still felt a bit cautious. Alex asked, "What's in the bag." Darien opened the bag taking out some bread. He came a bit closer, "I honestly bought this with coin but the moment the guards saw me they tried to arrest me. It's because I'm a peasant from the slums." Alex sat up more letting his fur press out, "The Slums?" Darien nodded, "Yeah, the people outside the castle that try to get by day by day. We all live out there in the slums. Living out there sure comes with strange advantages but I'd give up that for a place like this." Alex sighed, "Why? They just slap you with pointless gold trinkets and other junk. I'd like to see the outside for once." Darien came right to the edge of the bed, "Well, I don't know how to help there but I still owe you one." Alex lowered the sheets fully still with his leggings on. Alex said, "I don't even know you're name." Darien laughed, "Ha, woops. Guess I got carried away in all the excitement, my name is Darien." Alex slid to the center of the bed and extended his hand, "I'm Alex, Prince Alex." Darien said, "It's nice to formally meet you Prince Alex." Alex nodded, "Likewise. Now what's this gift?" Darien pushed himself up the bed and gently moved hand to Alex's face. Alex slid back, "What are you doing?" Darien blushed a bit, "Thanking you with a kiss. In the slums you learn about this sort of stuff early. Like if you're attracted to someone and want to thank them, a kiss is perfect." Alex slid back further reaching the left side of the bed, "Attracted? You're attracted to me?" Darien just nodded and drew in again this time planting a short kiss upon the prince's mouth. Darien drew back, Alex muttered, "I thought people only did that when they loved each other and wanted to marry." Darien blushed bright red, "Well I can't explain it but my heart was racing as soon as I saw your face. So I think I'm falling in love with you..." Alex blushed too, "Oh..." Darien faked a coughed, "Agh, well um, I should get going and stuff." He sat at the ledge of the left said then Alex pulled his arm, "Wait..." Darien turned his head to the prince, "What..." Alex pressed his lips together and leaned in and kissed Darien back. Alex broke the kiss and whispered, "I think I love you too..." Darien moved his hand back to the prince's cheek and came in for a longer kiss. Alex was caught up in the moment and lost as Darien adjusted his body coming on the bed pressing deeply into the kiss. It was the first kiss Alex had received like this. The excitement and feeling were just too much for him to remain idle. He started kissing back. As soon as he did Darien lapsed his tongue under Alex's, and a new deeper sensation took over both of them. Even knew Darien knew what a French kiss was he had never actually done it and the feeling was far surpassed his expectations. Darien clasped his hand holding Alex. After kissing for a while Darien placed his other hand on Alex' bare brown light brown fur, he could feel Alex's heart beating widely for a moment. He moved his lower around the stomach. Both of them were getting aroused but were to busy getting lost in this new found momentum of exploring each other tongues. Darien started slightly pushing Alex against the bed while they still kissed each other opening the strange sensation for passion of the kiss deeper. Darien knew how couples proceeded. Darien went for it seeing how good this felt and all. He kissed Alex on the neck. The young prince placed his hands on his mouth as he held in his first moan, "Mmmmmmmmmmm." His erection was pressing against his pants now. Darien worked his kissed down Alex's chest. Each wet kiss got nearer to his pants and he couldn't contain his blissful soft moans. Darien unzipped the pants and lowered them and saw the red juicy cock. He kissed the base and Alex started squirming the sensation was already overwhelming and new. Darien proceeded kissing up the shaft and got to the sensitive head part. Alex moans started to push out a little more, "Mmmnyah." Darien then started to lick under the shaft. Alex moved one hand down clutching against his sheet as he moans continue to purr silently. Darien opened his mouth and went down on the taking almost half the shaft in. Alex blurted out, "Ohhhhhhhhhhhh my lord." Darien proceeded to go up and down on the prince's dick placing his hands on Alex shifting legs. Alex had his eyes closed for most of this and has he felt something building up he tightened his shut eyes even more gasping out, "I'm gonna pee." Darien knew that wouldn't be the case and went even faster making harder and harder to Alex to hold in. Alex let out his last moan, "Ahhhhhhhhhhh." His first orgasm shot out and his cum dripped down a bit as Darien took some of it in still working the shaft waiting for the second orgasm. The feeling intensified even more and now Alex placed both hands on his sheets and moaned once more, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh." His sperm shot out and Darien drew back. Alex opened his eyes seeing some sperm on Darien's grey fur. Darien looked down at his own pants and his dick was throbbing. He unzipped his pants and let his dick flop out. He placed his hand on it as Alex blushed as he watched this fox start to shift his hand up and down on his own cock. His lustful blue eyes nearly ignored Alex as he focused on his own dick. Alex became curious as to what the felt like for Darien when he was on his shaft. So Alex leaned in and kissed the top. Alex moved his hand away looking at Alex look up. Alex had cute red eyes and Darien nodded. Alex looked back at the cock and kissed it some more and started to suck on it finding the taste quite pleasurable. Alex went down and up a bit slower so Darien moved his hand to guide him. Darien moaned, "Mmmmmmmmmm." Alex was able to faster and faster with Darien's help. One of Darien's hand clenched Alex's ear and he squirmed, "Ahhhhhhh." His cum shot out and Alex almost drew back all the way. He tasted a lot less cum but the taste was amazing. He went back down and continued to help finish Darien off for the night with one last orgasm. When Alex came up Darien collapsed into his arms falling asleep slowly. Alex felt the heavy tired ness too and fell back and went back to sleep.

The next morning Alex woke up rolled to his side and saw Darien still sleeping in his bed. Alex smiled for the first time in a long time. He had found his true treasure in Darien. Darien woke up, "Oh no...I got carried away. I'm so sorry..." Alex rolled on top of Darien and placed his hands down, "There's no need to be sorry. I wanted you to stay. I love you." Darien curled up and rolled out of Alex's bed. Darien got up still nude and said, "I'm a fool. Love can't be this simple." Alex adjusted sitting down on his butt, "You're my first real treasure Darien. I don't want you to go." Darien cried out, "I'm merely a peasant and you're a prince. If we get caught then they have my head. And who knows what they'll do to you. I can't risk it." Alex pushed himself off the bed with his hands came up moving his hands at Darien's waist, "I'd do anything to stay with you. I'd risk everything...I don't care if our love is taboo." Darien pushed away and turned around, "I can't do that too you. I mean we just meet. I got carried away. I should have just ran." They heard the door. Darien quickly rushed into the Alex's clothing room. Alex rushed up to his bed and his most trusted guard Mika came in and asked, "Is everything alright my prince?" Alex sat up again, "Yes, Mika." Mika said, "I could have sworn I heard another voice in here." Alex lied, "I was just talking to myself in different voices...to practice when I have to make speeches and whatnot." Mika said, "Very well, come it's time for breakfast." They both left.

Darien came back out and started to write a letter, 'I'm sorry Alex. I just can't stay. Don't worry; one day you'll find a princess and everything will be alright. I'm sorry for coming into your life like this -Darien." Darien left the note on the prince's drawer and went to the window. He scaled back down without a ladder. Alex went on the rest of the day normally. When he came back near night time the first thing he did was check the closet, "Darien..." He went to his bed and saw the note. Alex dropped the paper in tears. Alex whimpered for some time before a strange new feeling of determination came over him. He began to climb out the window. He made it halfway down before falling to the grass below. He starched his head as he got up. The pain was there but Alex was far more determined to find Darien. He rushed to the stables and got on a horse. He was taught very limited things but manage to master horse riding as he forged ahead. He made it to the wall where Darien was already at the top. Alex cried out, "Darien!" Darien stopped and looked down. Alex climbed up moving like never before and feeling roughed up for the first time didn't mean a thing. Alex came up and hugged Darien, "Don't leave me..." He came back and tears flowed down, "I'm willing to do this just to be with you. I can't explain it either but I told you that I love you. I don't want a princess. My life means nothing if I can't have you." Alex rushed up and kissed Darien with this passion he had felt. As Darien pushed back only to feel more guilty, "Alex...we can't do this. We practically live in two different worlds. I'm considered a thief. And you just ran away. If you stay here with me then they'll think I really did capture you. If I go back I'll be found out sooner and later and the fate will be the same. I'm dead either way." Alex looked down, "I'm going to change this...I swear it. I'll make it better. One day we will be able to be together, I swear it." Alex looked at Darien's blue eyes and held his cheek, "I will be with you once again. You are the only worthwhile treasure to me. You're my world and no matter what happens, I'll love you no matter what." Alex leaned in kissing Darien. Darien drew back, "Just do yourself a real favor and pretend like I was a fantasy." Darien started to go down the other side and made his way back into the slums.

Alex went back before the next day and was able to set himself up. Mika came in, "Time for breakfast my prince..." The guard inspected Alex's face which was still bruised. The guard asked, "What happened to you?" Alex got up, "I was just being clumsy was all." Mika crossed his arms looking at the ladder that was still set up, "Really, it looks like you've been going outside without permission." Alex sighed, "Fine...I did." Mika sat at the edge, "Tell me what happened. And I want the truth." Alex sat up, "Mika, in here I'm in jail...When I was out there I felt free for the first time. And...I found someone...someone special, and I have fallen in love with this fox very much." Mika said, "Your father wants you to find a suitable bride..." Alex yelled, "No princess will ever be suitable for me. He's the only one I want to be with." Mika asked, "He?" Alex stood up, "His name is Darien and he's from the slums. And last night from the very moment I saw him I knew I couldn't be without him. I'm going to see him again weather you like it or not." Mika looked away, "My prince...it is my job to escort you whenever you leave the castle...This is no different." Alex jumped, "You mean I can go?" Mika nodded, "We must proceed with care." The two went down the ladder that was still set up and Mika got the royal carriage for the prince ready. Alex went in the golden carriage and waited to come to the wall. Mika came out first opening the gate to the outside. Alex came out too and Mika said, "Stay near me. Some of these foxes may wish to harm you." They went into the slums going from ally to ally. Alex spotted Darien who had another bread bag and was sitting near a small hut. Darien looked up and saw Alex then he saw the guard. Darien rushed up and ran. Alex yelled out; "Darien wait." Alex rushed ahead and then Mika yelled out, "Alex!" Mika followed Alex who was in pursuit of Darien. Darien ran across the town and Alex was able to keep up as both swerved through other foxes with ease. Mika lost Alex in the crowd. Darien went all the way to the other side of the slums he went up the walls. Alex caught up and made his way up as well. Alex yelled out again, "Please wait..." Darien heard him this time and turned around and stopped, "That was close..." Alex explained, "There was no need to run, that guard was with me and he brought me here just to see you. He wanted to help me." Darien cried, "Don't you get it, the more times you do this the harder it gets. You need to go back and forget we ever met." Alex raised his voice a bit, "I know you love me too. You said it. I can't forget something like that. And I think you can't either." Darien stood firmly, "Even if that is the case, I'm a dead fox. Maybe it would best for me to turn myself in now and just fade from this world." Alex rushed up, "I'm not letting you die. I won't let you do that to yourself. I'm willing to fight for my love if you meant what you said you'd be able to do the same." Alex moved his hand taking Darien's hand and came closer. He moved his other hand to Darien's cheek and he said, "I need this again..." Alex planted a kiss on Darien just as he was about to speak again. When Alex broke the kiss Darien was lost in his train of thought. Alex came closer again kissing Darien on the wall. This time Alex led Darien on as he placed Darien on the stone slowly still showering him and long kiss. Darien started kissing back to feeling the rush of his erection overcome his thoughts. Alex had Darien pinned and now with his erection Darien had only one feeling to get rid of it. Darien decided to take another deep step even after all that talking. He rolled Alex over and took of his pants with quickly. He took of his pants too and pressed his hard dick against Alex's asshole. Alex squirmed up as Darien pushed in. Alex yelped, "Aghhhhhhhh." Darien pushed in and softly asked, "You alright?" Alex nodded and Darien pushed in further while raising Alex's legs over his own knees. He bucked in all the way and Alex let out another ghastly yelp, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh." Darien started to thrust with a moderate pace each push allowing Alex to loosen up and take it, his own cock bounced against his own fur. Each push became much more pleasurable as he loosened up and his own cock was throbbing. Alex moaned more freely, "Ahhhhhhh, ahhhhhhh, ahhhhhhh" Darien picked up the pace feeling his own urges building on top of Alex's. Darien moaned too as he went faster, "Ahhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhhhh" He sweated unlike last time putting a lot more effort in actual motion. Darien was close and so was Alex. Alex just touched his tip and this blissful state and they both moaned widely, "Aghhhhhhhhhhhhhh." They shared and orgasm and tired themselves quickly still not used to sex.

Both fell asleep on top of the wall. Mika made his way to the wall finding him by evening time. He took a look at Alex's love interest and picked up only Alex. He dressed the prince and carried him to the castle. He placed the prince in bed and tucked him in. One of the maidens came out of the closet after placing cloths and saw them come in. She rushed out and Mika had no time to catch her. Indeed times would take a turn for the worst. Darien woke up and sat up looking around. He sighed, "I can't believe I let him do that...Agh, I just love him too much..." The king was alerted of Mika's activity. Right at the break of morning Mika was summoned by the king. Alex was present sitting on the right side on the smallest chair. The king stood up and spoke, "A maiden has stepped forward and has told me that you Mika my most royal guard has allowed my son outside from the castle wall. Would you care to explain your actions?" Mika stood firmly, "You're son the prince requested a personal trip. And as his most humble servant and guardian I was obligated to carry out the task." The king asked, "And where exactly did you take my son?" Mika answered honestly, "By his request we went into the Slums." The king voice got loader, "The slums!? The area is strictly off limits." Mika said, "I am well aware of the rules my lord, with such a confliction I swore to stay by him at all times." The king asked, "And did you honor that task." Mika gulped down his pride, "No, my king." The king looked down, "Then you could not handle you're task. As such you have broken your vows and are hereby dubbed a traitor in which the punishment is death. Alex stood up turned to his dad and cried out, "You can't do that!" The room grew silent, even the king could not believe his son would ever speak with such rage and passion. Alex yelled, "If you do, then I will kill myself. Mika is the only worthy guard of serving me. After all it's my fault. I made the request...I demanded it. I wanted to see the one I love." The king mouth dropped, "Love..." Alex cried, "From the slums. He's no princess. Every waking moment I think about him now." The king asked, "How did this come to be?" Alex explained, "He visited me two nights ago and as thanks for keeping him safe he expressed his love for me. At from the very moment he stepped up I was in love too." The king looked away, "I can't believe this...I have no choice, I can no longer see you as my son," The king stared at his son with a vicious stare, "Now you shall share the same fate as Mika!" Mika yelled to Alex, "Run!" Alex jumped down as Mika pulled out his sword as other guards came down to attempt to capture Alex. He ran into his room and worked his way down as Mika came up behind. They had to climb down without the ladder. They ran out to the field. The archers readied as Mika got the horses. He caught up with Alex. An arrow came down piercing his knee. Mika collapsed and Alex stopped. Mika yelled, "Go. I'll be fine." Alex continued to swerve as he made his way to the wall. He climbed up to get to the slums. He ran in-between huts. He went back to the spot Darien. Darien looked up, "Alex..." Alex kept moving pulling Darien up yelling while tearing up, "I told my father everything...He wanted to kill me." Alex continued to pull Darien as the guards made their way in the slums. Alex continued to lead Darien into the forest. Once more Alex was a bit surprised from the spring of hope from the slums actually had. The foxes their actually had pretty decent life style. They were well family oriented, but now neither of them would most likely ever feel that like that ever again. They continued onward deep into the forest which was vibrant with animals on four legs. They continued in silence as the neither of them had ever seen such great bodies of water. The terrain was breath-taking. They went on for days and were forced to hunt four legged animals. The nights were much more frightful with branch-like noises all around a camp fire they struggled to get going. From early morning they'd take off going further and further. Their long time had made Alex so focused that he barely remembered his time at the castle. Those memories were fading as a part of him wanted to forget. It was like the only memory that remained was being with Darien that one night. Even Darien's worries of death had faded which left them both thinking very sexual thoughts at this moment. They came out of the forest to find a barn. They went inside making sure to close and lock the huge animal stack. They didn't even speak and removed all their cloths. This time Alex led on coming up behind Darien from the rear pressing his light brown fur against Darien's grey fur. Alex kissed the neck of Darien and turned his head and kissed him on the lips as he teased his cock against Darien back and mostly the ass. Alex placed his hands on Darien's waist and adjusted to begin penetration. He mounted Darien as Darien went on all fours on the hay and Alex lifted the tail and went fully in on the first push. Darien buried his face against the hay yelping, "Mmmmmmmmmmm, ahhhhhhhhh!" Alex's never felt such control and went as fast letting his animal instinct of sexual activity take over. Alex right leg slightly hooked off of Darien's side as he humped widely. Alex murred; "mmmmm, mmmm, mmmmmmhhhhhh." Darien loosened up quickly as each thrust came in rapidly and hard. Alex never knew he was capable of this type of action. He closed his eyes feeling the great release this time fully ready to burst. Darien grabbed his own shaft and jacked off trying to match the pace of Alex. They both moaned, "Ahhhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhhhh, ahhhhhhhh." They both had an orgasm. Alex filled Darien's asshole with sperm. Darien's sperm dripped into the hay. They fell asleep after such an intense session.

The next day, Alex rubbed his eyes rolling over and got dressed. He slightly shoved Darien. Darien yawned, "Ahh." Alex got up fully, "We should keep moving." Darien got dressed as well but stopped as he stood up, "Before we go, I wanted to apologize for my behavior. It's true that I love you but I was constantly trying to push you away to keep you safe..." Alex put his hand on Darien's shoulder, "No, it's ok. I get it. And everything else has passed and we now I'm free from my father. I just hope Mika really is ok." Darien asked, "Where do we go now?" Alex shrugged, "I don't know. I guess we keep going until we find a new home." Darien said, "This has been tough on you. Are you sure you're ok?" Alex nodded, "Yeah, being free for the first time feels great. As soon as we can get other cloths, I'm taking all the gold stuff off for good." The went out the barn continuing in the same direction to end up in a new docking town filled with new creatures none that neither of them have ever seen before. The verity was beyond what either of them suspected, the vast majority of these two legged lizard. They stood their observing these creatures after hearing them talk for a bit they managed to learn these were bangaa's. This community was very different neither Alex nor Darien suspected such diverse area in such a compact town. The two entered the city to get all a welcoming environment. Both of them got low end jobs. They cleaned cloths for a while only up to the point where they found out fishing was the big money maker. The two stepped up and earned money. After a while they both changed their attires. They wore similar garbs to most of the Bangaa's. Brown shorts and a small strap jacket. Most bangaa's didn't even bother to wear tops at all. They both tore tail holes for their shorts.

They found a back ally and went down reaching the end which was just a huge house in the way. Alex lifted his tail. Darien came up behind. Darien shoved his cock in Alex's asshole. This time Alex was able to get into getting fucked a lot faster then the first time. And being in this area had this sort sex vibe to it. Darien went in and out holding up Alex's tail the entire time. This was the next time both of them both said, "I love you." This time after finishing the session they got washed in water nearby and got dressed and went to their new home.

Alex and Darien lived an empty house and were able to live pretty well now. They just became regular faces around the city of Jana. Every so often they find a new spot to fool around when they couldn't fight off their urges. Other than that both of them were now happy. Now Darien too could claim he had found his first treasure in Alex. They loved each other and it grew and grew each day. They found out here no one cared if they held hands in public or even if they kissed. Everyone here was cool. Even Alex's and Darien's way of speaking would be a cross of this new age of what they were like before mixed in with some bangaa lingo and some new slang they came across from other species.

15 years later...

Alex woke up shifting around. He sat up starching his head. He had a lot more fur to adjust to. He was around five feet now and being an adult now brought on a whole new way of living. The castle and being a prince felt like an old distant nightmare. As he came out he walked down the pear calling out the Bangaa's he knew, "Sup bros." They nodded and one spoke, "Sup Alex." Alex said, "Just jettin' down the river." Alkor the blue Bangaa that spoke asked, "Where's your boyfriend?" Alex shrugged, "Beats me. He's just being as adventurous as ever." Alkor nodded, "Alright then you best be off, best of luck to ya." Alex sailed off, "See ya." On the other side of the town Darien was on a roof with a sniper rifle. In the fox kingdom where he'd be considered a thief and a killer but here he was known as one of the best hired assassins. For the past two years Darien who shifted over to this job finding his pervious skills at running away to come useful. He learned to his thin fox frame to hide and kill his targets. It was a great paying job and Alex's and Darien's romance was even greater when they had their own big house now. One of Darien's clients joined Darien on the roof. He was a grey Bangaa and his name was Ji'kor. He sat down as Darien was still looking in the scope. Ji'kor asked, "You busy..." Darien turned looking at the scar on Ji'kor's right eye. Darien said, "I've got time." Ji'kor said, "Want some fast money then?" Darien looked back in the scope, "That's fine by me." Ji'kor placed his elbow on his knee, "Then go to the alleyway behind the corner store. The job is to take my long cock in your ass then give me one hell of a blow job." Darien wasn't even disturbed by this request, "Is that all?" Ji'kor stood up, "Geese boy I don't think you understand when you're getting the kick. And I know all about your boyfriend. Don't you think he'd be upset if you just went along this?" Darien started to pack up his gear, "You talk too much. I'll be waiting in the ally..." He hopped down. Later on the evening Darien was there and saw Ji'kor coming down. Darien lowered his shorts taking them off completely and even raised his tail and spread out his legs. Ji'kor licked his lips slobbering over this opportunity to get some action. He got his hands on Darien's waist. Right as he felt Ji'kor thing he elbowed back hitting his neck, he now faced the stumbling Bangaa. He did a single jump picking his shorts with his toes the quickly lifted them up. He kicked the side of Ji'kor's head. He grabbed his wrist right at vulnerable nerve spot. The pain was too much for Ji'kor to do anything. Darien pulled Ji'kor stretching him as he turned him around still holding his hand. His hand went around his own neck. Darien quickly moved both hands to snap his neck. When Darien came out of the alleyway he was shot in the eye with an arrow. He fell back and rolled back into the corner of the alleyway. He pulled the arrow out and climbed over the building trapping him. He walked outside the city a bit. He made his way back home. He made a custom eye patch with supplies around the house. While that was going on Alex was still in the river. Up ahead on one of the banks he saw a female fox that was his shade of coloring and she was fully nude. Alex couldn't stop his ere. He gulped as the fox looked up. She wasn't so bothered even as Alex forced himself to look straight ahead and ignore her. Then she called out, "Well you're quite the looker." Alex started to paddle trying to get out of this awkward situation faster. She followed him on land and asked, "What's the matter you can't speak, or are you just shy?" Alex didn't say a word as he made his way. She kept following him regardless of how much he kept going. Soon he reached the end and she was there waiting for him. She said, "Well you sure are something. I've been looking for a male fox outside that crummy fox kingdom for some time. I'm in the mood. I can see you've gotten big down there. So I figure we can help each other out." She pulled him out of the boat and kissed him and as soon as she did a voice from behind Alex said, "Alex..." Alex pulled away looking at the one-eyed Darien. Alex cried out, "I can explain." Darien looked down, "No. After everything we've been through, it's crystal clear...that I was just a temporary amusement..." Darien ran away and Alex attempted to give chase. It was no use Darien lost him in the crowd of Bangaa's. Alex went back home and fell into the bed crying. Everything fell and Alex's life was misery. He had let go and could no longer seem to function in this society any longer. So he left. He walked aimlessly for days. He was going to walk until he died. He had no more care in the world now that the only thing he loved in this world left him. He got himself lost in the woods heading in a random direction. He stumbled in new cities and new towns and the threshold of changes were taking place. Buildings were getting more complex and roads were becoming more main stream. Houses got bigger and bigger. But none it had his interest nothing at all. He didn't hear the voices of random strangers asking him if he was alright. He was broken. He left that town going into another forest. His energy was depleted and he was staggering from tree to tree. He finally collapsed and just as he started to fade he heard a voice saying, "Hey...Hey..."

Alex woke up. He turned to the warm fire and saw the night sky. On the end was an older fox. He pressed stick against the fire. The fox spoke, "You ok?" Alex was lying on the log. He just looked up ignoring the question. The fox said, "I never knew you'd become so stubborn again..." Alex looked over again as the fox continued, "Once known as Prince Alex. Found his love life in the slums. I thought you'd be living it up now that you're gone from the kingdom." Alex muttered, "Mi...Mika." He nodded, "It's been a while. I escaped a while back and I went to go look to you after I healed my wounds. I almost didn't notice you being all grown up." Alex spoke up a bit, "How did you know...?" Mika said, "The golden piercing in your left ear. You never took it out." Alex touched the golden piercing then unclipped it taking it off looking at a loving saying from his father. He threw the ring into the fire. Mika asked, "You don't look to good." Alex finally sat up and ate a bit, "I messed up. I was workin' in this town and this female fox got the wrong idea and tried to advance on me. Just as she did Darien saw it and thought I was done with him. I should have just told her I was spoken for." Mika stood up, "Now is the time to amend yourself. If you felt as strong as you have back then you need to fight to get that love back. I have justified my short comings. We overthrew your father a year ago and since then progress of our kingdom have flourished. Now you have to justify your misunderstanding. Otherwise you'll never be happy again, just as I have and from it I have found my own love life and we shared two great kids." Alex said, "That's what's-up." Mika asked, "What?" Alex starched his head, "Sorry. Livin' in the area I have sort of changed the way I speak a bit." Mika said, "Well alright. Now our focus will be to find him." Alex looked down, "We don't even know where to begin." Mika looked down only for a moment they stared heavily at Alex and said with a determined voice, "Follow your heart, Alex. Let your love guide you." Alex said, "Right."

And on they went on journey to the farthest reaches of the world. They came across a strange crystal passage. The crystals were large and blue and shiny. He went down to see that Darien was staring into one of them. Mika stopped further beyond to leave them to their affairs. Alex gasped and Darien turned and saw Alex. Darien looked away, "What do you want?" Alex looked down, "I messed up. I should have told that fox the truth. I know my actions looked bad but I didn't want any part of that...." Darien didn't' speak and Alex continued, "I once told my dad that I didn't want a princess. I was telling him that I was gay, and that I was love with you. It was like I lost the key to my treasure, the key to your heart. I know you might not accept my apology but one day I promise I will be you're treasure again too. I guess I was getting more and more nervous each day because...I was going to ask you to marry me." Darien looked at him, "Really..." Alex pulled out a ring, "I know it's just an object but..." Darien rushed up and kissed Alex. They shared a twirling kiss as Darien was so relieved in knowing the truth and finally breaking from this since of doubt. Darien said, "I accept."

Ten years later:

Alex and Darien finished their honeymoon and had gone back to the Bangaa city to raise their two adopted children. Both of which were from Mika and his wife. They could only handle two kids and when they had two more Mika said, "I once protected you with my life. Now I accept you to look after these two with just the same level of dedication." Alex and Darien agreed. They went back to being just and average family of four. One day the kids were with Mika, out on the booming city that was renamed Dex City. Alex and Darien just finished having stuff and went outside after showering and dressed for work. On the entrance of the city an entire military squad decked out in super best and helmets entered in with machine guns. Entire rows of this unit came down each street and not a single other creature remained out now. Alex and Darien were at the boat. The squad reformed and all their guns clicked and the one in front yelled, "Freeze." Both of them stopped. The leader said, "But you're hands on your heads." They did so and were admittedly dragged out into a van. This force kept both of them quite for the trip. They were pulled out some time after. They were forced out and they looked as they were being lead into a large building with electric wired fences. They opened the large doors and were moved passed a field. They were other creatures minding their own business. They were moved through another set of doors that lead into a large hall. They were forced on their knees and guns were pointed the backs of their heads. All that was heard from outside was a load shots being fired...
