The Black Fox - Part 1

It is dark.  A figure of a canine, standing on two legs, leans over a railing, looking over a city.  The city is lit up by the street lights and signs below.  The fox was wearing his usual trench coat, a large brim felt hat on his head, like what old mortician use to wear back in the old west.  He has a black shirt on against his black fur.  His bottom was bare, showing all he is indeed male.  His tail has a white tip.  His face showing a concern over his face as his blue eyes glance over the city over and over again as a female canine walks through a well lit room from behind him.  Wearing only her fur as clothing.  Her fur darken from the lack of light with the exception of the lights from below.  Her front white, her hair silver in color.  Her brown eyes look at him.  "You alright, hun?" she asks.  He nods as he then turns to her, putting his hands on her shoulders. "Yes, just wish I sometimes didn't have these powers at all."  She looks down, "I know." she replies, "But your powers at least make it like you really are around all the time, since you do have the ability to time travel." He looks over her and smiles, "That is true.   You do know how to make me feel better, Vixy." The two foxes walk into the well lite room.

The male fox walks in and takes his hat off, showing his grey hair.  God bestowed him with powers beyond comprehension. Forcing him to split into two beings.  Those memories resurfaced in his mind, then remembers that this is the way it is has to be.  He agreed to his fate long ago, when he was still fully human, in another world altogether.  He remembers that he was at a local grocery store.  He was with his mother and decided to stay in her truck at the time as she went to go in for a couple things.  He pulled his Gameboy out and started up a game.  While playing, a screech comes from outside the truck, and before he could react, the truck was hit.  He doesn't remember much, just a white like room as a voice comes from everywhere, giving him a task.  He is to protect all dimensions, all worlds.  The voice told him that money will not be an issue, but he will keep battling, until the end of time.  He accepted this role.  For the first thousands years or so, he was a human, until he discovered this world, and his now wife.

"Reed?" The voice comes from the kitchen.  The vixen from before was in the kitchen, cooking something up, even though he didn't need to eat anymore, due to his magical abilities, he still enjoyed eating.  He frowned though, knowing that Vixy cannot even make a salad correctly, but he used his magic to make his meal a bit better tasting.  He looks at her and smiles, "So, where is White anyways?" the black male fox asks his wife. "Well, she went to her home dimension to visit her old friends and family." She replied to his question, going back to cooking. "Anyways, lunch is ready." she then added after a brief pause. He gets up and and sits at the table. Waiting for her to bring the food.  He usually cooks for them.  Their three kids where at their grandparents house so both him and Vixy where both alone.  She sat down his food, which looked like a sandwich, however it wasn't very appetizing, so he mumbled something and made them into a much better looking, and probably better tasting sandwiches.

"So, do you have to leave again?" Vixy had asked just before taking a bite out of her sandwich.  "Yes. I have to go to an old dimension to defend it and keep my deed to it." she smiles, "I know you will win, if not, you will be back shortly.  You are immortal, just like me now." she chuckles.  "Only because, I gave you that, my lovely black vixen." he responded.  He didn't want to be without her.  He would have been turned into another dark version of himself if it wasn't for her at all.  She looks up and giggles some, "You do know that I am glad you have those powers.  You do make my cooking much better." she chuckles as he chuckles with her.  "I know."  He knew that she knew that she couldn't cook at all. "You have been in the holo-deck a lot lately." He smiles, "Yeah...." he says, trailing off the last part of his words. "I was wondering if we should change the time part of it to match the time out here."  Vixy shaked her head no as she chewed another bit.  After she swallows, "I kinda like it that way.  More romantic." Reed finishes his and stands up and takes his plate into the kitchen and setting it into the sink.  "I am going to take a look around the apartment building, make sure all is fixed up and in good working order."  He smiles, taking his hat again. Putting on his hat, "Will be back in a few minutes, hun.", as he walked out.
