Judy's POV
Smack. Smack! Smack!!! The door would come down soon. But Nick stood up. He left the couch and snatched a sharpened steak knife.
"Nick!" I said, quietly.
"No, I'm keeping it! If they lay a paw on you-"
Crash! The door came off its hinges. Nick practically threw me to the ground. The panther entered. Syringe in his hand, gun in the other, he searched the room and then he saw us.
Third-Person
Nick dived towards him, Judy scrambled back, the panther stabbed the fox in the neck with the syringe. Nick stood still and in the mirror Judy saw his eyes turn a fire orange. Nick shook with adrenaline his mind repeated one word. Kill.. Kill. Kill!
The panther turned to Judy.
"GET AWAY FROM HER!" Nick screamed. The panther drew a small blade, approaching Judy, slashing toward her. Her cheek had a small cash on it.
"Get away..." Nick said. The panther cracked his knuckles, turning to Nick. Nick undid his tie throwing it to Judy. The panther threw a punch. Now bleeding, Nick dived at the panther, his eyes glowing a deep amber. The panthers neck had red gushing from it.
Judy dabbed Nick's time on her cheek. She then realised Nick walking toward her.
"Nick... stop..." she said. Nick's claws extended. Then his eyes returned to a lime, yet glowing like a traffic light. He wasn't his self, yet the repeating of kill had stopped. He dived towards Judy, she startled yet realised he was hugging her. He the moves her hand and his tie away from her cheek, he brushed it with his paw.
"What can we do about the guy I just ripped the throat from?" Nick said.
"He tried to kill us, he has a serum there so we just say!" Judy said as Nick put on his tie once more.
"This is the police!" Yelled Chief. Police rushed. It was a flash and Nick was in cuffs. His bloody tie, shirt and the dead panther.
"Miss Hopps, help us apprehend this individual!" Said the Chief. She was about to argue, then he glared at her.
Nick looked at her, remembering her previous attitude towards his turning.
"Judy, please tell him!" Nick said. Judy remained silent.
"Baby please! Tell him! The syringe!" Yelled Nick. An officer threw it out of the window.
"What is this!" Nick said. Judy left the room, Nick heard her sobbing in the hall.
"You thought we'd let a savage criminal with an extensive record on the police force?" Said an officer. Then Nick saw something, a slash on the neck of the Chief. Of course. That's who Nick turned on in highschool.
"Officer Wildes your sentenced to two years in prison for attack leading to death! Get walking!" Yelled the Chief. Nick struggled in the cuffs, they sighed into his skin when the Chief tightened them. He took a glance at Judy who mouthed "Sorry!"
He scowled.
"Sorry! You've ruined my life! Prison ruins people!" Nick's eyes flashed yellow. Metal snapped. Cuff free, he charged at Judy, slashing. Officers restrained him, "Career only is it! I thought you loved me! Guess that's dead!"
He through her to the guard and ran to his room. Judy and the officers rushed in. Nick had his revolver clutched in his hands. His hands shaking, he raised it to his temple.
"Guess this is it then Judy?" His voice not shaking, yet in the few moments away from Judy, Nick's fury had subsided and had been replaced with tears. An officer approached Nick aimed his gun and the officer backed away. Returning it to his temple Nick's finger curled. Judy rushed to him.

Empty. She threw his gun. She slowly snapped the cuffs around his wrists.
