Concert Chapter 6: Collapsing facades (final)
Sooo here it is. The final chapter of my Concert-Story. Sorry everyone for the slight delay but my physical condition didn’t let me do anything yesterday ^^ Im still a bit groggy but I wan’t this piece out there, as soon as possible :DD
This chapter will be a little bit different. How so? Well it is a concert and as such it features some lyrics. In fact, the songs that are featured here, are the songs that inspired me to write this story in the first place.
All credit to the songs go to the amazing Band Delain!
The amazing header again was made by the fabulous @fuzzywuzzylittletail
I put up a Youtube playlist with all featured songs so if you want to know what kind of band this is, feel free to listen to it :D

And now, without further ado, here you go!
Chapter 1: Friendship on the Brink
Chapter 2: Goodwil visit
Chapter 3: Apologies
Chapter 4: Crevasse
Chapter 5: Unexpected Encounter
Chapter 6: Collapsing facades
Collapsing facades The rapidly gathering crowed announced that the show was about to start any minute now. Judy was jumping in anticipation while the hall was filling with many mammals of every size.
“Nick, I am so excited! Chuck told me the band is extremely cool. He said their concerts always are great and loud!”
This made Nick remember something and he put something out of his pocket.
“Here, Carrots. Please put these in.” He presented her a pair of earplugs.
“Are your serious?” Judy asked in disbelief.
“Trust me, your ears are way to sensitive to the volume. Don't worry, you'll hear well enough!”
The sincerity in his voice made her give in quickly and he was right, she still could hear with them plugged in. Judy just finished her carrot juice, when the lights in the hall went off with an audible “thud”. The crowd began to cheer over the sudden darkness that announced the beginning show. The cheering grew even louder when an big AnimaliA logo was projected on the black curtain and the music started to play. Unexpected to Judy and Nick, the first instrument they heard was the piano. In addition, it sounded like playing violins supported by the humming of a choir. After a few moments the drums started to play and the logo began to pulsate to the now eminent beat that slowly grew faster. Another few seconds later, the crowd began to cheer in Ecstasy as the guitars and bass kicked in. The logo fainted and one by one, fitting to the beat, names showed up in front of an instrument. “The names of the band-member”, Nick thought.
Bruce - in front of what looked like a guitar
Charles - another guitar.
Anne - another one?
Michael – Drums
Spots – A keyboard
Charlotte – A microphone
Just as the last name faded, the music stopped and a voice was heard.
I looked at the stripes the monarch flies I hold my cries If my friend, if you can change perhaps then so can I.
After the choir grew silent the guitar started to play a silent little melody supported by the keyboard. The melody grew louder and suddenly with a huge flash of light the curtain fell to the ground revealing the band that started to kick in.
The crowd went crazy, jumping, screaming and clapping to the beat.
Nick was taken by surprise by the sudden change of lightning and had to blink a few times to see what was happening in front of them. As he tried to see through the bright flashing lights that emitted from the stage, he made out a tigress, playing a guitar like instrument and waving her head on the left side of the stage. On the opposide side, he could see a wolf with another guitar, banging his head to the beat likewise.
After a moment he could hear a female voice starting to sing to the music, just as he finally managed to see clearly again and he saw the singer right in front of them was a ..... "Bunny?" he thought amazed. Her fur was pure white except the fading red and orange flames that were painted on her ears and the combination with her scarlet red dress gave him the expression of a flash of fire as she was jumping over the stage singing with such a rich voice it made him wonder how this could come out of someone so small.
He couldnt clearly understand what she was singing about for the noise of jumping crowd was overwhelming but a few snippets went into his ear.
I walked away, and left you bleeding As I kicked the mud off my feet I lay on the ground and watched you leaving My heart fights for every beat
This passage somehow sounded familliar to Nick but he couldn't place it. All he knew was all in a sudden he had a feeling of guilt swelling up inside him. He was pulled away from this thoughts as he noticed a violent push on his arm. He looked down to Judy and saw her excited face as she was jumping up and down and screamed "A BUNNY!!!" He could hear her over the crowd and had to laugh at her excited and surprised expression. But still something just hit him besides Judys fist that keeps bumping his arm and this hurt way more.
It's not enough! How hard I try It's not enough! "Good evening Zootopia!!!" The Bunnys scream pulled Nick out of his thoughts. "Are you having a good time?"
The answer was a deafening uproar that made Nick flinch and he also saw Judy shouting her agreement as well. It seems she found a new hobbie. Who would have thought she'd be into this that much.
"I see we got many different mammals here, tonight. Pred, prey, big, small. This is perfect. I love seing everyone getting along so well."
Again the crowd cheered to that statement. Charlotte, as Nick remembered is her name, was looking around and as she was looking in his direction, he thought she locked her gaze with his. She smiled and continued her speech,
"The next one is for everyone. No matter what you are, what you do.... or what you are into."
She was grinning in Nick and Judy's direction as she said the last part.
"Spots, do you mind?" She asked the Giraffe that was playing a very high standing Keyboard and he started playing a little melody, that made the crowd go wild as they must have recognized it in an instand.
When the drums started to play to the song, giving it his final push and a fast beat, he noticed for the first time the drummer who was a... squirrel? He didnt see him at first because he sat in front of huge speaker that were connected to his small drumset, behind he was partly hidden.
Now that he saw him, Nick had to force himself not to laugh at that bizarre spectacle as the squirrel, who wore shades just like Nick's favourite pilot sunglasses, went crazy and hit the drums as fast as he can.
Charlotte was again jumping wildly to the beat of the song and only sang while dashing from one side of the stage to the other and back. The audience was still cheering ferociously, jumping to the beat and in general having a great time. The atmosphere of pure joy, the hall was filled in the second this song started made Nick think, this song must be something special to the fans and the band.
When Charlotte stopped for the refrain and only held her microphone towards the audience, even Nick got goosebumbs as the crowd began to sing the refrain in an cacophony of voices from the sharp voics of the mice to the deep trumpeting from the elephants.
We are the others, We are the cast outs, We're the outsiders But you can't hide us, We are the others, We are the cast outs You're no longer on your own If you feel mistreated, Torn and cheated, You are not alone, We are the others
The energy this song emitted was almost touchable and Nick was amazed by the way the audience and the band seemed to righteout celebrate this song. He saw a Tiger and a Goose sing that song arm in arm and he even noticed a Mouse dancing on the head of an elephant who supported the rodent with his trunk so he wont fall down. These guys really dont care what or who one another is. The normal resentments he saw in his daily life just weren't here. He understood that this song wasnt just some platitude or slogan on a bumper sticker, no, these guys LIVE it.
Nick was so lost in his thoughts by the end of the song, that he even didn't notice, he was shaking his head heavily to the rythm of the song. Judy noticed it and was grinning wildly as Nick tried to return to his cool temper he tried to uphold at any times, even at concerts.
After the end of the song, Charlotte began another speech to the audience.
"I see, you all are having a good time tonight. Well, we do. And it's amazing to see all the different animals untited."
A cheer emitted from the audience.
"I know that these topics might be hard to handle but isn't life to short to be afraid of our differences? Shouldnt we better celebrate them?"
The cheering returned louder.
"Anyway. From personal experience I know how hard it is to overcome the fears, the doubts. You are afraid to hurt someone?"
Nick noticed her longing stare toward --- the wolf(?!)
"Don't give up and give them the chance to take away this fear."
Now she was again looking directly at Nick and Judy. Was this a coincidence?
"GET THE DEVIL OUT OF ME!"
Again the keyboard started the song and shortly after the other bandmembers joined in.
Charlotte started to sing again and jumped toward the Wolf with the guitar next to her. Nick tried to remember his name.
"Charles, I think. He must be Wolfards cousin!", he realized.
I don't know what to feel I don't know what to say Oh, I don't know what to do What makes me treat you this way?
She walked across all of the stage while singing but occasionally jumped back to Charles, who was playing his guitar hard, and shared a wicked smile with him.
I'm no Jesus Christ I'm the one mistake That you love to hate I apologize It's your destiny To get the devil out of me
The song was fast paced and the audience was going wild again during the whole duration of it. When it was over, the hall erupted in loud cheers that went on for a long time.
Charlotte encouraged the crowd to cheer further by raising her paws in a wave like gesture which made them shout even louder. She visibly enjoyed this and walked to Charles who stood on her right. When she reached him, she jumped on his back without hesitation and climbed on his shoulders in one single thrust. She looked so small compared to him and the way she grabbed his head to keep herself from falling down made Nick wonder, what might be going on between them.
“Quite a nice view you got up her, big boy.” she said jokingly.
“Now. Who of you is in a relationship right now?” she asked the microphone.
A loud clamor was the answer.
“Great. And who wishes to be in a relationship but hasn't got the guts to ask the chosen one?”
The cacophony wasn't as loud but still enough to make the walls shake.
“And who of you want's to have a relationship but is too scared to start?”
Nick's eyes widened to that question.
“Well, I've been through something like that. And well, the next song was the outcome. I really felt... DEEP FROZEN!”
The giraffe started some sort of Xylophon melody and the other member kicked in soon after. Nick was anxious about the song. Her question did hurt him, it sounded as if she was talking to him and this scared him.
Charlotte started to sing, still sitting on the Wolf's shoulders,
“Misted windows Hide your empty eyes Every moment, every whisper Separates you from me”
Nick was taken aback. He looked at his breast pocket, where he saw his sunglasses.
“I’ve been screaming Won’t you let me in? Let me see a trace Of the places hidden Under your skin”
Charlotte held her microphone in front of Charle's face, who was carefully playing his instrument not to shake too much, compared to the previous songs. He then started to growl in a deep guttural voice:
“I foster illusions Of which I am afraid unknown emotions Repel your embrace I foster illusions Of which I am afraid afraid of your embrace”
Nick was on the verge of fainting when he heard this lines. Did they read his thoughts? What is this all about? Charlotte continued:
“Needles sting me When you look away And your silence Sounds like deafening screams to me I’ve been waiting Won’t you open your heart? And let me in Please let me in”
Nick was looking at Judy now. Her ears were hanging low and she bend on the face in front of them. She looked like she was feeling down. He realized, she must be thinking the same thing as Charlotte was singing in this song. He really kept his silence. He really looked away. This must have been hell for her. Nick felt horrible.
Charles repeated his lines again and when he finished, Charlotte jumped down from his shoulders and now stood in front of Judy and Nick. Nick felt like she was looking at them when she concluded the song with a verse that sounded like a plead directed to him and him alone. “I am imagining things”, he thought.
“Free your mind from doubt All you have, is now Free your mind from shame It will only bring you pain”
The song ended and the crowed fell back to its usual applause and screaming. Nick wasn't feeling like cheering though. The song did hit him harder than he expected. The feeling of guilt returned and hurt him more than ever before. He caught himself staring at Judy the whole time and took some time to realize she was looking at him in return. Her eyes looked beautiful like ever but he also saw a hint of tears, forming up. He felt like he should say something but Judy broke their eye-contact and nervously pretended to concentrate on the stage again.
He has to set things right, he thought. But not now. “I'll wait until the concert's over. I need a more private place for this.”
Nick wasn't a moron. On the contrary, he knew how to add one and one together and after the next song, he was sure, Wolfard had spoken to his cousin about Nick's “problem”. The song was a slow and kind of sad song about parting ways.
“After the guilt, they planted within me, they also want me to fear, losing Judy for good?”, he thought when he heard the beautifully sung lines,
I want to lay my head down Come closer, come closer I thought you'd turn me But you were turning around I think I'm losing you Losing you again Why didn't you stay a while To say goodbye, my friend My friend
“Well, they succeeded.” he sighed.
Nick had a hard time paying attention to his surroundings and the going on's on stage as he was lost in his thoughts again. He did not notice the surrounding audience that went crazy during the following fast paced songs, of which he didn't get anything at all, or even Judy, who managed to enjoy the show more than he did. Her ears were flapping up and down in front of his face while she was again caught by the music and let it lead her movement but he did not notice it.
“This is all a setup by Wolfard!” he finally thought which made him snap out of it just in time to get the next hit of feelings delivered as Charlotte and the tigress Anne sang a ballad together.
Standing in the shadow of our lies To hide our imperfections, Doing anything we can to hide. Eyes wide open but still blind To see what really matters, And insecurity won't go, See me in shadow.
“Yes I know I was blind! Yes I know I can't control my insecurities!” Nick was screaming inside.
And all the purples and the greens Have turned to black. And the ruins of your soul Have died, no more meaning. I wonder when you have Become so cold
The song ended and Nick was again frozen. Judy's concerned look got him out of it and he tried to fake his emotions by smiling at her and signing a fake yawn as to show her he is fine but tired. He started to move to the following songs to show her he is still there but inside he was far, very far away.
“It was a great night with you guys!” Nick heard Charlotte shouting towards the audience.
“And we are reaching the final of tonight's party but I hope you are ready for a few more songs!”
The hall was shaking by noise that followed that statement pulling Nick out of his thoughts again.
Don't you know In the end you're no stronger of hand You are no stronger of heart Don't you know In the end, we'll be tragically torn apart If we can't control the storm
Charles, who sang this part in a surprisingly clear voice compared to his guttural growl from before, was right, Nick knew. He had to control the storm inside himself or else he will lose his biggest treasure and will regret it for the rest of his life.
He made the decision anyway and finally could see what he has to do clearly in front of him. The following song encouraged him further to let go of his insecurities and act up to his true feelings.
"Would you fall, give it all Would you give it all for me? Sucker-punch the demons from my dreams
“Judy would for sure!” Nick thought, “And its time I start to do the same!” He checked his watch. When will the concert end? He wanted to talk to Judy in private. Show her what he felt. Finally committing himself to her for real.
Charlotte was about to talk again as her eyes and Nicks met again. He had the eerie feeling she knew what was going on and smiled wickedly.
“Okay everyone. We had a blast tonight and it's about time to end this party but yet I noticed that some of you, still haven't had the relief they needed.” She was staring at Nick while she said this.
“Maybe our last song will change that because it is time to end your masquerade!”
Charlotte walked to Charles looked him deep into the eyes and started to sing,
“Your face, my face You breathe, I breathe You fail, I fake I pray, I pray...”
She walked back in front of the audience, and in front of Judy and Nick,
“You lose, I lose, You bruise, I bruise I hunt, you stay My prey, My prey”
“Hunt? Prey?” Nick was completely pulled out of his thoughts as he heard this. Charlotte seemed to look at him as she continued,
“My Masquerade If you’re not afraid To take a step into my world”
“I will kill Wolfard after this.” Nick decided after this new hint at his involvement. Still, this song fit his feelings like a glove.
Charlotte was again walking to Charles and pointed at him in a prompting gesture,
“A ball, tonight Cover your eyes By touch and taste We’ll find our way”
“Yes!” Nick suddenly realized. “Yes! There must be a way. And I know it now!” He was looking down at Judy who were jumping to the fast paced beat of this song, not noticing the determined glance in Nick's eyes.
“Your secrets deep Yes I will keep I hunt, you stay My prey, my prey”
He grapped her left arm with his paws and startled her by the sudden touch. Judy looked up at him, stopping her dance as she noticed his serious stare.
“My Masquerade If you’re not afraid To take a step into my world”
Charlotte noticed that something was happening in front of her and she walked closer to her boyfriends cousins friends. A big grin formed in her face while she was still singing.
“Take of your mask the world will see The freak in you The freak in me”
Nick bowed down towards Judy and said something in a soft whisper that was swallowed by the noise that surrounded them. Judy couldn't hear it but she read it on his lips.
“Tonight we hide From judging eyes”
Their faces closed in together until, ....
“Take of your mask the world will see The freak in you The freak in me”
….they connected in a kiss that was followed by a loving embrace.
Charlotte saw the two lovebirds in their embrace and was barely able to continue to sing. She smiled widely and was jumping in excitement.
“We’ll dance until the sunrise “
Except a few other mammals that stood around Judy and Nick, no one noticed the scene that occurred at that moment.
The song ended and the crowd was cheering, clapping and still jumping around but Judy and Nick still stood there in their own little world.
This scene of the embracing couple surrounded by wildly cheering mammals must have been so obscene, that Charles was laughing hard as Charlotte noted him towards his cousins friends to show him their mission was a huge success.
Judy and Nick couldn't care less about that as tears were running down Judy's cheeks because she now finally knew that Nick's love for her was bigger than his fears.
Nick felt like a huge weight just fell off his back and he was sure, whatever the world will throw at them, whatever small-minds will say.
He will never let his bunny go.
Also, he thought,
“Maybe Rock Music isn't that bad.”
I know that the music used in this might be bad for some of you and maybe you can’t see the connection to Nick and Judy but I had to get this Idea out of my head because it was haunting me for a long time ^^
And now I need a break xD
I still hope you enjoyed it ^^

Concert Chapter 5: Unexpected Encounter
Welcome to part 5 of the Concert. Today we will get to know who this Hyena is ;)
Thank you again SO much für the drawing @fuzzywuzzylittletail you made him look perfect!!!!!!
This will be a rather short chapter again but I think he deserves his own.
So, here we go:
Chapter 1: Friendship on the Brink
Chapter 2: Goodwil visit
Chapter 3: Apologies
Chapter 4: Crevasse
Chapter 5: Unexpected Encounter
“Here you go, one carrot juice for carrots.” He said while eyeing the hyena. The hyena was a head higher than Nick and his black leather Jacket made him look pretty intimidating but his smile was captivating and felt generous. He looked questioning at Nick and began to laugh manically.
“Carrot Juice for the carrots?” He asked laughing. “And that coming from a fox? Doesn't that offend you, Judy?”
“Judy?” Nick thought anxious. Why is this laughing guy so friendly with Judy already? He was only gone for 10 minutes.
Judy started to chuckle and said,
“Haha, no, not at all. He's my partner and friend. Although, he isn't as funny as he thinks.” Judy said and grinned mockingly to Nick and continued,
“Chuck, this is Nick. Nick, this is Chuck. Chuck and I went to the Police Academy together!”
She said excited.
“Oh really. What a small world. I haven't seen you around. Did they put you into traffic control?” Nick answered sarcastically.
Chuck didn't seem to notice Nick's hostility and said,
“Yeah, that were some great weeks. I gotta tell you, Nick. You got yourself a really tough Bunny as a friend. She beat me up pretty bad during our close combat training.” he patted Judy on the shoulder as he said that.
“Well, we should toast to this little get together.” Nick said and pressed himself between Chuck and Judy, trying to make it look as casual as he could.
“Nick what are you doing?” Judy said annoyed as she got pushed aside by Nick.
“Nothing? I just wanted to say a toast to MY Carrots for a nice evening!” He answered innocently.
Chuck and Judy both saw through him. Chuck asked Judy with a chuckle, “Will you tell him or should I?”
“Tell me what?” Nick asked with rising anger.
“Nicholas P. Wilde! Are you jealous?” Judy smiled wickedly.
“Jealous? Me? Are you kidding me? What are you talking about? I'm not jealous? What should I be jealous about?” Nick continued stammering like that as Chuck started to laugh wholeheartedly.
“Hahaha. You should see yourself, Fox-Boy. You are so cute!”
“What did you call me?” Nick almost lost his temper completely.
“Hahaha. If anyone has a reason to be jealous, it's Judy because I got to tell you. You are one handsome fox!” Chuck answered and winked at him.
Nick stood there dumbstruck. Judy saw Nick's confusion and started to laugh out loud, almost falling down, laughing.
“Would someone of you finally spill the beans? What the hell is so darn funny?” Nick demanded now.
“Oh Nick.” She smiled, “Chuck is no competitor to you. Haha. Actually, he's here with his boyfriend”
Nick looked at Judy, then at Chuck and started to laugh nervously.
“Gosh I am such a fool!” he thought and said,
“Who would have thought of that. My partner is friends with a gay hyena. Now that's not what you see everyday. How come I haven't met or heard from you before? There aren't that many police officers, especially ones like you, and I know most of them.”
Judy gave him an angry look and wanted to scold him for being a huge jerk toward chuck but Chuck only laughed hearty and said,
“Hahaha, don't be mad, Judy I get that a lot and I think he still has to process that he should be more afraid about what I might do to HIM instead of YOU!”
Nick's eyes grew big and he slowly stepped behind Judy for cover as Chuck continued,
“Hahaha, I'm just messing with ya, buddy. You are an eye-catch, though. Judy got to be a happy lady! Anyway I got to go, Leo's waiting in the back. It was great to meet you again, Judy. We got to meet for a coffee some day.” Judy and Chuck hugged each other.
Chuck turned to Nick, hugged him tight and added with a wink,
“A double date, maybe?”
Behind himself he left a very confused looking fox and a bunny, almost falling over, laughing hard.
What would you say, that Chuck wasn’t intended at all and just “appeared” while I wrote this part? Thats how it happened xD
I hope you all enjoyed this chapter and I’ll see you around next week for part 6 :D

Concert Chapter 4: Crevasse
Wohoo here you go again Chapter 4.
Thank you again for the amazing Picture @fuzzywuzzylittletail this is awesome!
Without further ado, here you are!
Chapter 1: Friendship on the Brink
Chapter 2: Goodwil visit
Chapter 3: Apologies
Chapter 4: Crevasse
The day before the concert, they left the ZPD together and were talking about the upcoming event.
Judy frowned,
“Tundratown? The venue is in Tundratown? Gosh I hope they got good radiators.”
“Have you ever been to a real rock concert, carrots?” Nick asked rhetorically and went on,
“Even if they don't heat at all, you'll be hot by the end of the concert. Trust me.” he grinned.
He thought about the rock concerts he visited in the past. He was dragged to them by Finnick who was a total metal-head.
Unfortunately they all ended up with Finnick having the time of his live, shouting and headbanging, while Nick tried to understand a word the “singers” shouted out behind the loud and heavy instrumental melody's.
Of course, he knew there were other kinds of this music besides these “death metal” bands but this experiences left him considering this kind of music as unnecessary noise. Also, he did not know what kind of band Animalia would be, so he was anxious.
Judy on the other hand was pretty excited about the event, he thought. The closer the concert came, she grew more and more restless. Nick knew, she liked all kinds of music and he hoped she'll have a good time. This was all that counted for Nick right now.
The last week felt really awkward. Judy wasn't mad at him or at least did not show it but their usual team-spirit was off.
While on duty, they managed to behave like professionals but the usual chatter was missing. They both didn't want to initiate a conversation, that might lead to unwanted topics so they kept silent most of the time.
Now that the day of their “date” was this close, Nick was unusually nervous. He couldn't imagine how a simple concert could help him overcome his fears. After all, it's “just” music.
Sure Judy might try to force him to dance again but other than that he doubted, some silly songs can change the way he thought.
He was wrong.
They met at Judy's apartment, where Nick was picking her up. When she opened up her door, Nick's eyes grew big. Judy wore skinny Jeans that highlighted her gorgeous figure, a white Tank-Top covered by an unbuttoned black shirt, that made Nick's heart skip a beat and around her neck she wore a small necklace which looked like a carrot. He recognized it as the gift he gave her for her last birthday.
Her big violet eyes completed the image of absolute beauty and left Nick speechless.
He felt embarrassed. In comparison to her shining beauty, he felt like a street-rat. The beige trousers and the purple shirt he wore, felt like an insult to Judy and he began to get incredible anxious.
“Are you going to keep staring at me or are you ready to go, Slick?” Judy asked, tearing him out of his paralysis.
“Uhm.. S..Sure. Sorry I was lost in thoughts. You look good, Carrots.” he awkwardly stuttered.
“Sure. You too, Nick.” was her skeptical reply.
Nick led Judy downstairs to the waiting car, he rented for this occasion. He did not want to take the subway or the bus to Tundratown this late because he knew what the nightlife in Tundratown could be like. He wasn't scared. They both were trained police officers after all but he did not want some drunkards to ruin this day.
It was already dark and there was almost no traffic, so they made it easily to Tundratown. They both were silent the whole time until the GPS led them to an industrial looking part of town with run down factories and big storage facilities.
As they passed by a familiar looking parking lot with big black limousines, they looked at each other and started laughing wholeheartedly.
It was the first time Nick heard Judy laugh like this for weeks and it made him happy beyond belief.
This also broke the uncomfortable silence and they finally managed to chat to keep the silence away.
When they finally arrived at the destination, their GPS told them, they shared a worried look.
“What kind of place is this?” Judy asked at the sight.
The building in front of them was looking like an old factory of some sort and definitely had seen better days. The color on the walls was peeling and the windows were barred by wooden planks and the Illuminated letter that spelled “Crevasse” were flickering irregularly.
At the entrance a small crowd already gathered and was waiting to get in.
Nick parked the car at a parking lot not far away so they had only a short walk back to the building. When they reached the lines of waiting mammals. They were waiting in three different lines, separated by their size.
There were extra entrances for huge mammals, mammals of their own size and small, rodent-sized entrances.
They got to their line and observed the surrounding mammals. There were about 50 waiting mammals of different species waiting already. He also noticed, that they did not form groups of prey or predatory animals like he saw at many events, especially after the Night-Howler incident. He took it as a good sign, that the trust slowly came back to Zootopia but didn't put more thoughts into it.
As they waited for the gates to open, Nick saw that Judy was starting to shake. Her teeth were also chattering.
“You should have brought a Jacket if you get cold that easily.” Nick mocked her.
“Strong words for Mister “You don't need a Jacket at a rock concert.”” She countered angrily.
“I was talking about the concert. Not the waiting, Fluff. You bunnies, always so careless.”
The glare Judy gave him, made his blood freeze inside his veins and made him shiver for a moment.
They stood there in awkward silent after that for a moment until Judy jumped in surprise as she felt Nick's tail starting to wrap itself around her torso. She was looking at him but he was intentionally looking away. The red fur in his face looked somehow brighter nevertheless. Judy smiled and grabbed his fluffy tail and felt warm and cozy.
As Judy started to hum happily, Nick noticed the heads of some mammals around were turning their direction.
They saw a fox wrapping his tail around a bunny and started to smile.
Not the reaction, Nick expected but he still felt embarrassed. Fortunately the gates opened only seconds later and they began to walk inside.
All concerts Judy ever visited in Bunny Burrow were open air events, as well as the big gazelle concert she was invited to after solving her first big case together with Nick, so this small kind of venue was new to her.
Fortunately it was well heated inside the building although she liked the warmth of Nick even if she knew, how hard it was for him to show his affection in public. She thought it might be a sign he finally overcomes his fears. There was no time to ponder about it because there were many mammals trying to get in and there was only little space in the entrance area so they moved on so they won't get crushed.
The interior did not share the same impression as the outside of the building. Everything was tidy and looked well cared for. The wallpaper were deep black and covered by poster of several musicians who had played here. The light that illuminated the area came from hidden spots in the roof at the corners, putting the room in a shady passive light. It spread an eerie feeling that made Judys excitement slightly turn into anxious feelings but Nick didn't seem to care so she tagged along.
They were heading straight for the concert hall that was separated from the bar and merchandise stands, where already a huge crowd gathered.
The concert hall was a huge, almost empty, space that has been separated in several areas. Judy saw that there were different areas for different sized mammals, which made sense to her, if they wanted to give everyone an equal chance to see anything at all. The ceiling of the room was very high and packed with different sorts of lighting systems. Judy had the impression, this might have once been some sort of factory but if that was so, there were now signs of it today.
At the walls on the left and the right, at about eye level of the elephants and hippos, which already stood at the back of the room, she noticed balconies where the rodents were gathering.
In the opposite side of the entrance where they entered, she saw the stage. It was a small, elevated, area covered by a huge black curtain.
Judy got excited by the anticipation of the show that might come. She didn't care about the kind of music, after all she got a very broad taste of music and most importantly, she was happy to be together with Nick.
Judy spotted an empty space in the front row directly below the stage and started to run towards it, surprising Nick, who still was absorbing the surrounding impressions. He followed her and stood next to her on the fence, that separated the stage and the crowd.
“Are you sure, you want to stay in front like this? It's gonna get loud, crowded and probably violent.” Nick asked concerned.
“Aww come on, it won't be that bad! Also, I want to see it all and if we stay farther behind, I won't be able to!” She countered.
Nick didn't want to start an argument and she did have a point. He still didn't like the prospect of his partner getting tossed around by a violent crowd and decided to keep her safe as good as he could.
The concert wouldn't start for another hour and Nick asked Judy if he should get her something to drink. He also wanted to check something he remembered from some concerts he went to with Finnick.
He went off and left Judy behind, who was still admiring the whole scenery. “That bunny was up for a ride”, Nick thought concerned.
Outside the concert-hall he first went to the bar and ordered carrot juice for Judy and a beer for himself. After this, he went to the merchandise stand. It wasn't as crowded as when they first entered and he was able to browse the goods on display. After a short search he found what he was looking for.
He got back to Judy who was chatting to a hyena that stood next to her.
Hehe. Thats it. Who is that strange Hyena-Guy? Well, we will learn that next week. Stay tuned :D
I hope you all liked this chapter even if it was a little bit longer as the last one ^^

how do you get so many points? my record is at around 160k xD
I think the secret is to prioritize matching the active emoji first, and tapping on the active emoji when its power is activated.
Also, whenever you get a thundercloud, immediately “explode” it toward wherever holds the active emoji the most.
And finally, time is of the essence! You want to have as many Blitz as possible; during a Blitz, one emoji will not appear on the board, allowing greater chances to make matches.
Oh, and if you swap the sun emoji with the thundercloud emoji, a... beautiful thing will happen 😉
