Nick POV


I touched the baby with my left paw and Judy with the right one, this was all my fault. "Max" She said but didn't cry, because she couldn't. She was dry of tears. "He was here?" The other visitor said but there was no surprise in her voice, I bet she was just asking to fool us. "He-he appeared out of nothing.... talked to me and killed her, then he left" Judy stuttered. This was supposed to be our base, the place where they can't hit us and the only place they didn't know where it was and now we learn that it was all a lie?

"He knew all along? That means...." Mrs. Otterton said and paused, these news were far worse than I'd like them to be. "... he has been playing us" Roebuck filled in, his eyes fixed on the floor. Nobody dared to raise their heads nor speak, we were all utterly devastated. "How can we even think of winning?" Judy asked and held her dead daughter closer in her arms. "There is no winning..... you should've known" The visitor said and stood up, how did she even dare fucking speak.

"You! Shut it! Roe warn everyone, we're executing plan W" I said and stepped away from Judy, I wasn't going down without a fight. No I wasn't gonna let that piece of grey fucking shit bully my friends and especially I wasn't gonna allow him threaten Judy and my family, this was more than revenge. "Are you serious?!" Roe protested. I growled at him and starred at him angrily, "I don't have time for bullshit" I said and with that he ran out of the room with Mrs. Otterton.

"Can I help?" The visitor asked and stood up, she was still fucking here. "As if" I replied and this time I turned to Weston who was still waiting for his turn. "Gather our stuff from upstairs and get them to point B" I ordered him and with a nod he ran upstairs to start packing up. "Stay the fuck here, I'll be back" I said to the visitor and walked Judy back in upstairs to our apartment. I didn't rush her nor force her to do anything she didn't want to, she just walked silently with me. "I know this is hard but I need you to go with Weston when he leaves" I said when we entered our room.

She starred at me with a mix of confusion, sorrow and anger. "How dare you ask me to leave you?" She said with a fragile voice, her ears were stuck on the back of her head and her arms were locked around the dead baby. "I do dare.... because I don't want you to get hurt" I said and knelt in front of her. With a gentle move I opened her arms and took the baby away and into my paws. Then I placed it on the bed besides us and looked at Judy in the eyes. "I can and I will fight besides you! I will not leave my husband" She insisted but I knew that this defense of her was just an illusion.

"Judy they will need someone after this. The only person suitable is you" I said and smiled, how was I supposed to tell her this? How could I bring myself to explain my plan, the original plan. "You can lead them not me! " She shouted and started punching my chest with both of her paws but she was weak, she didn't have the strength to do anything. "I won't be there to do so" I continued. I didn't bother stopping her from hitting me, this would make her feel better. "What do you mean?!" She asked and stopped punching, her arms placed on my chest and her head between them.

"You know what I mean" I replied. A low sobbing started to become audible, how could our places be reversed? A few hours ago I was the one crying on her lap and now she was on the very same situation. "I want you to hear it from you" She insisted, sly bunny. She wouldn't believe me otherwise and even if I did tell her myself then she would try to convince me otherwise. "I'm gonna die Judy, tomorrow evening" I said as I raised her head with my left paw to gaze into these wonderful amethyst eyes.

"I won't let you die! You've made it through all this and you will do so again!" She screamed and tears started flowing out of her eyes once again. "This is the end of the line for me.... We had fun" I said and smiled as all the memories of her started exploding into my mind in a mixture of happiness and sorrow. No... that was wrong, I wasn't sad at all. I felt happy beyond my wildest imagination because I knew she loved me. I recalled even the saddest of moments with her and even then I could still feel happy, that was the level of influence she had on me.
