The sleeveless open black leather vest clad coyote slowly opened his sky blue eyes and looked around him. He was in a room of what appeared to be an abandoned cabin. Almost immediately, he noticed that his wrists and ankles were bound to a chair with rope. Dustin "Dusty" Sharpclaw breathed a sigh and hung his head, he'd always been one of the smartest but also one of the weakest and most cowardly outlaws in the old west. He was clever enough to swipe money from under a lawman's nose but too weak to even draw a gun. In fact, Dusty was absolutely terrified of any kind of firearms. Still, he was desperate and needed the cash considering his father gambled it away at poker. Unfortunately for him, there was a new Sheriff in town, a sociopathic rabbit named Budd Jumper and he was going to take great pleasure in punishing the timid outlaw.

The poor coyote whimpered as he struggled against his restraints, the sound of Budd's boots stomping in his general direction. He wanted out, he really wanted out but he knew he was completely helpless as salty tears brimmed in his handsome blue eyes, about to overflow in an instant.

"I'm so sorry!" Dusty whimpered frantically with a hot tear rolling quickly down his muzzle and perching on the tip of his nose, "Please forgive me! I just wanna pay off my dad's gambling debt, honest!"

Dusty could feel Budd's hot breath on his neck and the wet, slimy sensation of the rabbit slowly licking the tear off his nose. Budd's thick southern drawl then filled the air, "Ya know, Dustin Sharpclaw, I've tasted the tears of many terrified bandits in my time but there's just something extra sweet about yours. That drop was quite a savory morsel, especially coming from blue eyes as pretty as yours. Even the most hardened outlaws tremble at the sound of my name, I'm surprised a chicken like you lasted this long with me without passin out from fear."

"So, are you gonna rape me?" Dusty sniffled, blinking the tears out of his eyes rapidly. The coyote's vision cleared enough to see a short, stocky gray rabbit with dark brown eyes dressed in a tan fringe jacket. Although Dusty was taller than he was, Budd clearly had much more muscle and could easily overpower the thin coyote if he wanted.

"Rape you?" Budd burst into a loud fit of laughter, "Nah, I ain't gonna rape you. I only save my sperm for my lovely wife. I ain't got no reason to waste it on criminals like you. I just like scarin outlaws straight. Normally, I like a good old game of Russian Roulette but you're so pathetic that you don't even deserve a bullet to the brain."

"So..." Dusty began again, "Just what are you gonna do with me?"

The sheriff smiled a twisted smile and rubbed his chin, "I'm here to punish you for your crimes. But I'll have some mercy on you since you're kinda adorable. That being said, I've got the perfect punishment for you."

Budd pulled a large feather out of his jacket pocket and waved it in front of Dusty's face, "You familiar with tickle torture?"

The coyote's blue eyes widened in horror. He now knew that he was even more vulnerable than ever. Squeezing his eyes shut, all he could do was whimper, "Please make this quick."

"Don't worry, I'm a licensed professional in all kinds of torture." Budd smirked and he slowly began tracing the feather along the sole of Dusty's foot.

Dusty tensed up a bit before the rabbit slowly moved the feather to his armpits and gently started brushing it along his arms in search of a more ticklish spot. He kept poking and prodding the coyote's body with the feather until he slowly touched Dusty's right ear with the feather, causing it to flick, "Looks like I found your most ticklish place, Dustin."

"Please......" Dusty choked out, making big puppydog eyes at Budd, "Have mercy with me."

"Why have mercy when I'm gonna have so much fun?" Budd asked, slowly massaging the coyote's ears with the feather. Dusty bip his lip to the point where it was nearly bleeding as he let out a symphony of helpless whimpers. The sheriff continued to stroke Dusty's ears for a good 7 minutes before the coyote snapped and burst into a fit of laughter. Immediately, Budd raised the difficulty level and lunged at Dusty's feet, gently raking his lapine claws across the soles of his paws. Relentlessly, the rabbit proceeded to tickle the living daylights out of the poor coyote.

Dusty was now hysterical with laughter, a salty river of warm tears running down his long snout and dripping off his nose and whiskers onto his vest as he bowed his head. Immediately, he felt the familiar sensation of the shreiff's tongue tracing his snout and gently licking a few of his salty coyote tears away.

"I just can't help myself, your tears still taste so dang sweet, Dustin!" Budd cackled as he traced his feather along a tear track staining the coyote's muzzle.

After 3 minutes later, Dusty's laughter finally died down and he coughed for a bit, "Y......you really get your kicks out of tasting my tears, huh?"

"Like I said before, I lick the tears of all outlaws as I torture them. They're all salty yet they all got distinct aftertastes. Your tears are among some of the most delicious I've ever tasted, so dang salty but sweet as candy at the same time." The rabbit explained, patting the canine outlaw on his furry head.

Budd finally untied Dusty from the chair and the coyote stood up only to collapse on his knees. He was far too exhausted to just get up and run from the sheriff. Dusty breathed a heavy sigh when he heard Budd speak three unexpected words, "Take the money."

The coyote blinked a few times in confusion, "I beg your pardon?"

"Take it. Consider it a gift from me, even if you stole it. Just keep the money away from that no good gamblin father of yours." The rabbit replied gruffly.

Staring at the bag of cash, the coyote's eyes once again began to well up but this time with tears of joy, "Th......thank you so much. Y.....you have no idea what this means to me......I....." He hung his head, staring at the floor, trying to register what just happened in his brain.

Dusty felt a large tear travel across his muzzle and the sheriff watched as it dripped off his snout and hit the old wooden floor with a splat. Budd slowly approached the sobbing coyote and much to Dusty's surprise, pulled him into a close and warm hug. The coyote was now crying harder than ever but this time out of joy. Tears streamed freely down Dusty's muzzle as he allowed himself to cry on Budd's shoulder and even found himself hugging the rabbit sheriff back. It was a very strange and awkward moment, a sheriff actually cuddling with an outlaw.

After a good ten minutes, Budd finally broke away from the hug, "Just let this be a lesson to ya. You may be a criminal but at least your heart's in the right place."

Dusty choked out a happy sob as he knuckled a stray tear from the side of his snout, "Thanks.....I uh......think. So uh.......can this whole thing be our little secret?"

Budd just smirked again and scratched the coyote behind his ear, "Don't worry. As long as ya don't steal again, you're secret safe with me, Dustin."

Dusty breathed a heavy sigh, "Guess I messed with the wrong sheriff, huh? I'm just grateful that you didn't try to kill me."

"I only kill dangerous outlaws." Budd replied, "Not petty thieves who cry as much as you do."

"That's a relief, you may be scary but at least you have a heart." The coyote replied with a smile, "Any other sheriff probably would've killed me."

Budd smiled at Dusty, "Now you go and be on your way. You're a smart coyote, Dustin. You've learned your lesson so you're free to go."

"I know." Dusty nodded, "Thanks for just letting me off the hook by just tickling me and licking my tears. After all, you could've done something SO much worse!"

"You're very welcome, partner. You're very welcome." The lapine sheriff replied with a nod as the two parted ways out of the cabin as the sun set behind the hills. Just another awkward day in the old west. The end.
