As I look in the night sky I seem to forget about everything. I forget about how my parents bug the ever living days out of me about every little thing they could think of. I forget about how my girlfriend and I are slowly drifting apart, and for some reason it didn't bother me, I mean it bothered me that it didn't bother me if that makes any sense. But right now staring into the twinkling diamonds in the sky all my problems seemed to just drift away. That is until I was brought back to reality by the blaring of the community bus. "HEY JAKE ARE YOU GETTING ON OR WHAT?" Yelled the spotted cheetah that was driving the bus.

"Yea. Sorry Hector." I said to the driver as I hopped up the stairs, fished $1.25 out of my pocket and threw it in to the little box. As I walk down the isle I couldn't find any open seats so I decide to stand by the door near the back of the bus. As the bus closed its door and started rolling I looked out the window to see if I could see any stars. To my dismay the lights on the inside of the bus made it impossible to see anything outside that wasn't lit up by a street lamp. But for now all I could see was myself and my fellow riders. So I decided to take this opportunity to fix myself up a bit. Doing a quick scan of myself in the reflection. I started at the top of my ears and work my way down my muzzle being sure that not a single black hair was out of place. Leaning in closer I look to see if there was anything in my red stripe that runs from the tip of my nose, down my back, to the tips of my fingers, toes, and tail. Satisfied with how I looked I then just stood there staring into the reflections in the window noticing how the red stripe really brought out my icy blue eyes. I pried my eyes away from themselves and looked at my fellow bus riders through the reflection. Right behind me I saw a big hefty black bear shoving his face full of chips, not caring about all the crumbs that fell into his fur and on the ground. Disgusted I moved on to the next person which was a small otter who put down a book to clean his glasses and next to him sat an orange fox with ear-buds in his ears staring out the window clearly lost in his own little world.

Nothing to interesting to look at on the bus I decided to actually look out the window as the bus came to a slow stop. The doors opened and some people got off, the fox and the otter being some of them, as they got off I thought I caught a glimpse of there tails brush against the other. "heh cute," I thought to myself now watching a deer running out of a building trying to catch the bus, but I didn't watch him cause in the alley between the building that the deer just bolted out of and the one right in front of the bus stop I saw three shadowy figures, one on the ground and two standing above kicking the downed shadow.

Before the doors closed I jumped off the bus and ran as fast as I could toward the dark figures and like I thought, there were two people kicking another that was on the ground. "Hey call 911 and tell them to com here." I say to the stag as we run by each other, almost making him fall. As I got closer I saw two raccoons kicking a fox that seems to be unconscious. "What's going on here?" I ask making sure to stand far enough back so I don't get hit by surprise.

"What the fuck does it look like." Replied the racoon closest to me as he turned around to see who intruded on their beating.

"Well to me it looks like your going to beat that fox to death." I say gesturing toward the bloody fox on the ground.

"No we are just teaching this fucking faggot a lesson." Said the other racoon, kicking the fox again as he said the last word.

"That's your reason. Cause he's gay, cause he doesn't like the same things that you do. I mean what exactly is different about them other then what they like to do in bed? What no answer? Then let me tell you. Nothing, they are exactly like everyone else. Whats next? Are you going to beat me up cause I don't wanna join you? Cause I am mixed species? Or that I don't think gay people should be treated any different then a normal person?"

"No we are going to beat the shit out of you cause your getting in our way. He's all yours Robert." Said the racoon as he turned back to the fox.

As I ball my fists and start to go after the raccoons I felt something heavy hit me in the back of the head and send me flying down to the ground. As blood started to trickle from the back of my head down my muzzle, I looked up in time to see a lion jump over me and run down the alley following the raccoons. "Why are they running" I wondered to myself as I drifted out of consciousness.
