In a forest which surrounded a rather suburban city, deep past the trees there was a mansion. The building which took the power of atleast 500 furs was gargantuan and it was mind boggling how it was hidden by the simple flora surrounding it. This mansion however was not owned by some random rich fur, it was owned by a famous DJ and musician, Kar the wereskunk and his brother Josh the husky, another famous DJ in the industry.Inside the mansion that could fit possible close to 10,000 furs, only 2 slept and in 1 room.

As the sun shined through the open curtain a black skunk with multiple blue marking and rings groggily awoke. This was Kar, a thick, sold burly fur whose appearance would probably scare most to the outskirts of an abandoned city. Kar rose from his bed and closed the curtains, hoping not to awake his still dormant brother. Lying next to the hole Kar left in the king sized bed was a white and pink colored husky. Kar yawned unintentionally loud and slowly the sleeping fur rolled over to face his brother. The skunk looked down into the green eyes of his handsome younger brother and couldn't help but slump down and give him a kiss good morning. The husky gazed into his brothers purple and yellow eyes before they connected lips and giggled himself awake.

"Well someone is affectionate this morning", he giggled.

"And good morning to you too Josh", Kar said laughing.

Both furs loved each other like brothers should, even if they occasionally couldn't resist kissing the other quickly. The skunk stretched again as Josh jumped too life and gave him a bear sized hug. Both furs embraced and suddenly a simple kiss turned into a passionate moment.

Kar slumped slowly over the bed until he was on top of Josh and their maws connected. Josh giggled and continued to make out with his brother on their giant bed, rolling around and switching places occasionally. Both furs were busy practically joining themselves by the mouth, lost in their own world of passion and heat. Kar growled softly as he kissed his younger brother and Josh murred back at him. Suddenly Kar remembered why he had gotten up early.

"Oh that's right, I have a huge gig tonight at the local concert hall"

"No duh I'm coming with you" Josh quickly added as he got off of Kar.

Kar ran into the bathroom and took his morning shower before coming out fully dressed. The wereskunk hybrid was wearing a black and blue button up he had made for his most important events. Along was a pair of black cargo pants with blue stripes down the side, blue trucker hat and matching blue bandana around his neck.

By the time he came out Josh was also fully clothed, the pink husky was wearing a similar pink trucker hat, red t-shirt with "Dubstep" labeled in pink letters, and a regular pair of blue jeans. Both furs preferred to walk bare foot so no shoes littered the estate. The grown husky jumped and clung to his brother, nuzzling his back and asking where they were going to start their day.

"Well I have to go into town and get everything we need for the event tonight, you know, cables, wires, spare records"

"Alright, well can we take the limo to town!", the husky said excitedly.

"IF we take the limo we won't be able to open our doors from the fans"

"Awww ok big bro"

The skunk grabbed the keys to his custom blue and black convertible before heading down the hundreds of flights of stairs. The fur started to pant and wondered why he felt so heavy, thats when he realized Josh hasn't left his back.

"You know we would move alot faster if you weren't clung to my back most of the time", Kar giggled.

"But I don't like walking, and your back is very comfy"

The skunk ignored the extra weight and pushed on till he reached the garage which was filled to the brim with every new up to date car model and in every color as well. After finally finding HIS convertible Kar and Josh slowly made their way to a neighboring city.

3 hours of driving later the 2 furs arrived at the town of which their next major event would be held. Kar flipped a switch and watched as the roof popped up and, along with tinted windows, concealed the celebrities from any fans. Of course though some MEGA fans were already at the city border having heard that Kar and Josh were coming to their town to blow it up with their amazing music.

"Umm bro.....I think were gonna need another way in" Josh said clinging to his brother from fear.

"No problem bro I came prepared"

With that Kar rolled into another lane and started to circle the city finding a clear opening directly into the local shopping center. After circling for a parking spot the 2 exited their vehicle and slowly made their way around the area looking for a Best Buy.

"Hmm I wonder where it is" Kar questioned.

"Dunno....but I do see an ice cream stand!"

Josh quickly detached from his brother and got in line for a cone for himself as his tail wagged in anticipation.

"Well I guess there's no beating Josh's childish ay towards things", Kar laughed.

The wereskunk wasn't paying attention or he would have sensed the approaching fur behind him. Suddenly a voice broke Kar's thoughts and made him bare his fangs in anger.

"So I see your still as weak as ever Kar"

The black and blue skunk turned around and was faced with a fox, but not a normal fox, this was Jason a werefox, a species which shared some blood with that of Kar's. The orange fox was wearing no shirt showing off his sleek washboard figure and overall had nothing but his blue jeans on. On each side he had a woman under his arms, both rather "under dressed" to be in public, an orange tiger and black panther.

"I see your still the pompous and arrogant little cub you've always been", Kar responded.

The 2 furs didn't actually hate each other, it was just something in their blood. Whenever Jason saw another fur of the were species he HAD to start something and either verbally or physically abuse them, Kar was one of the few to actually fight back.

"Is that the best you got, or are you gonna wait for your "brother" to stop me again"

Kar stepped forward and growled in the furs face.

"What do you mean "brother"?!"

Jason stepped up and was chest to chest with the wereskunk.

"Last I checked you don't kiss your brother on the lips, thats incest", Jason snarled.

"You don't see me telling you what HIV ridden whores to sleep with now do I?"

Jason shoved Kar back and was given a quick punch in the gut back. Before either fur could even move again Josh jumped between them and yelled STOP!.

"CAN YOU TWO GO 5 SECONDS WITHOUT TRYING TO KILL EACH OTHER?!"

Jason growled and gave Kar one final warning.

"Don't worry Kar one day your gonna get yours!"

With that the werefox grabbed his two, freaked out, women and walked away while letting them rubs his muscles. Kar groaned in disgust at the hybrid and continued walking with his brother.

"Wait wheres your ice cream?"

"Hmm OH!"

Josh ran away from Kar again but this time he decided to follow him. Josh ran up to a random fur and Kar stared at him, puzzled at why his brother would go to a stranger.

"Hehe thanks for holding my ice cream for me!", Josh said licking his cone

"Don't mention it man"

Kar caught up and his eyes widened at the fur his brother was speaking with. Sitting in the chair was a blue wolf who had a genetic dysfunction in his family which caused the fur on his tail, ear tips and muzzle to turn icy blue. Wearing a pair of blue jeans, a navy blue button up shirt and 2 gold necklaces reflecting in the sunlight, Kar instantly recognized the fur.

"Is that you J?"

"Hmm....Kar? Is that you?!"

J rose from his seat and quickly lifted the wereskunk, who was atleast 40 pounds heavier, and gave him a giant bear hug*

"WOW have you gotten lighter Kar?", J said placing the black and teal fur down.

Kar gasped for air before giving the blue wolf the same hug back, only with an added lick to the cheek. J yelped as he was lifted and squirmed to get free of the hybrids grip.

"You haven't gotten weaker though hehe"

Kar placed J back on the ground before Josh stared at the blue fur with a puzzled look.

"KARRRRRRRRRRR who is this?", Josh said in a whiney tone clinging to his older brother.

"Its just J lil bro, were really close friends"

"Yep I knew your big bro back when he was just starting his career in music"

Josh tried to calculate the amount of time J knew Kar but gave up and walked over to the wolf. Josh quickly hugged J, who giggled and hugged him back. The pink husky slowly pulled back and giggled.

"Any friend of my big bro's can't be a bad person!"

"So what is a big hotshot like yourself doing in this town anyway?"

"I have a gig here tonight and needa get some stuff to prepare"

J grabbed his book and stretched before smiling at the 2 furs. He quickly grabbed them by their arms and started pulling them north.

"I can take you guys to the nearest Best Buy!"

Josh clung onto his brother as J pulled both of them to the superstore ALL the way at the top of the center. As they reached the parking lot Kar noticed a white truck driving by. Inside the truck was a white Bengal tiger with short black hair. From his angle on the street Kar could see that the male feline had a rather husky build like himself, but nowhere near fat. The wereskunk felt something inside him start to change and he blushed as the mysterious fur threw him a quick look. Within the seconds he spotted him, the tiger was already gone and driving into the distance. J had run ahead and was staring at the daycare next to the Best Buy making silly face and amusing the cubs inside.

Josh ran back to his frozen brother and asked him why he was at staring nothing, to which Kar responded "Did you see that guy?"

"Oh you mean Alfred?"

Kar grabbed his brother and instantly questioned how his brother knew the fur.

"I've only seen him once or twice, hes really weird, he goes to clubs and most of the time finds a way to dance alone in a packed house and he isn't really seen anywhere else besides that. Hes a classic loner in my mind"

Kar thought back and imagined getting to stare into the handsome fur's eyes for just another few moments. The skunk didn't realize his brother was SLOWLY pushing him into the store whether he was there or off in another world.

J suddenly brought Kar back to reality when he shouted something at the 2 brothers.

"IMA SEE YOU GUYS TONIGHT AT THE GIG!, aww look that little tiger is drawing on the walls!"

Josh and Kar waved at the wolf and entered the store. Kar had most of what he needed within 10 minutes but he wasn't expecting the amount of fans in the store. Kar spent more time signing autographs then he did on line, even then he had to give the cashier one, another thing that didn't help was he accidentally signed "Alfred" on some of the slips of paper unable to get the tiger off his head. As the 2 exited the store Kar looked up at the half moon and checked his watch.

"Damn it's already 10 pm, our gig starts at midnight!"

"Well we better get to the car then", Josh said while running ahead of his brother.

After finding there car and heading to the concert hall, both furs parked in the "officials" section and ran to the door. After a few knocks a tan fur with medium length green hair opened the door with a smile. Josh recognized the fur and pouted behind his brother.

"Hey Atlus, thanks again for the gig tonight"

"Hey nothin less for the best DJ in the whole world!, and his brother"

"Im just as famous and just as good as Kar Atlus!"

The fox rolled his eyes and pulled both furs inside. The hall was HUGE and could fit atleast 5,000 furs, a huge amount for just ONE event. Kar's eyes grew in amazement as he still couldn't believe how much of a hit his music was with others.

"Alright you guys have less then 2 hours to set up and be ready, don't disappoint!", with that Atlus ran out the hall ready to find the 2 another event to preform at.

"Can we get a new manager Kar? PLEASEEEEEE?"

"Josh he's an amazing manager I mean look at this place he got us!"

Josh grumbled before running over to set up the equipment. After an hour straight of connecting cables, wires, setting up the right records and such, the 2 were ready to earn their next million.

Everybody in town who was off legal age was at this party. Atlus was at the gate making sure everyone was paying and that no haters where getting past his security. Jason and his 2 girlfriends were inside dancing together, well more like he was busy flexing his muscles while the other 2 grinded against him. J was at the bar drinking himself some water and being criticized as to why you would come to a party to drink water by many furs. Kar and Josh were side by side in the center of it all with 2 blue and pink spotlights flashing around them. Neon was seen all over the club when certain songs played and almost everyone was having a great time.

"How you holding up Josh!", Kar screamed over the crowd.

"GOOD! I'm nowhere near out f steam yet!"

Kar was busy glancing around the hall when he spotted a lone fur somehow dancing by himself on one side of the hall, it was none other then Alfred. The wereskunk's heart skipped a beat and he blushed deep, feeling something as he watched the tiger dance. Kar motioned for hi brother to come closer as he pointed at the feline. Josh laughed and pushed his brother down from his spot and took over for him.

"JOSH what are you?!"

"Go bro, go to him I got you covered!"

With that Josh filled in and again motioned for his brother to move to the tiger. Kar took a deep breath before he slowly started to make his way across the dancefloor. With every step Kar felt his weight increase and almost turned around before he saw the tiger's tail flickering a few feet from him. As he took his final steps the wereskunk was suddenly ambushed by a group of fangirls.

"OH MY GOD ITS HIM!"

"ITS THE WERSKUNK!"

"ITS THE DJ KAR!"

All 3 cats squealed and hugged the fur and no matter how much he tried he couldn't get them off.

"LADIES! I have to be somewhere!"

"And would you fine young woman please make your way up to me?", Josh said over the loud speaker.

A light shone on the surprised 3 and they ran up and started watching Josh spin the records, again he gave Kar one more motivational "nudge" towards Alfred. Kar finally reached the Bengal and tapped him on the shoulder.

"Umm hey there"

The white tiger turned around and was surprised to see Kar, a celebrity, talking top him. The 2 stared into each others eyes again before Alfred broke the silence.

"Aren't you Kar?"

"Yeah, aren't you Alfred?"

The tiger blushed before shaking his head, and tail, and coming back into the conversation.

"Shouldn't you be DJing right now instead of talking to some guy like me?"

"Actually I was wondering if you would dance with me?", Kar said with a smile.

The tiger was shocked to say the least but he started rocking to the beat along with Kar and the 2 were suddenly dancing together. While they were dancing Kar wanted to know more about the fur so he started to talk with him.

"So Alfred what brings you hear tonight?"

"I just came out to enjoy your awesome music, I've been to all you concerts"

"Wait, really? Even the one up in England?"

"Yep I've been to every single event you've had, I heard you back when you first started back in Boston that one night"

Kar continued but blushed at the thought of this fur being such a hardcore fan of his.

"Hey was that you I seen earlier in Best Buy?", Alfred asked.

"Yeah it was"

"DAMN I should stopped to get a picture with you or something, I thought I was seeing things"

"So you have a mate Alfred?"

The tiger shook his head no and began to explain.

"I've only been in one relationship before and he ended up cheating on me with some slutty kitsune"

"Wow I'm sorry I hope I didn't hit a nerve or anything"

Kar felt awkward before the tiger pushed him with his hip and motioned him to keep dancing.

"Its no problem man, I haven't dated in awhile cause I haven't found that on fur I really trust yet, in the mean time I listen to your music"

Kar once was again brought back to life as he continued to dance with his new friend.

"Well what else are you interested in Alfred?"

"Well besides listening to music I love to long board, its one of my passions"

The night raged on as fast as ever and Josh was having no trouble keeping up with the momentum of the hall and its guests. The husky gave quick glance over to his brother to make sure he wasn't trying to flee.

"So what brought you over to me anyway Kar?"

Kar was thrown off by the question as he couldn't understand what he meant.

"What do you mean Alfred?"

"I mean, why would you come to me when you have a pick of practically any man IN THE WORLD, what brought you to ME?"

Kar blushed deep as the 2nd song since the 2 started dancing ended. The werskunk moved closer to the tiger, who blushed, and threw his arms over his shoulders.

"We...well...I think...I think I like you. I came over here wanting to get to know you better, and I think i made the right decision"

Kar got even closer to the tiger who wrapped his own paws around the hybrids waist.

"Yea...yeah?"

"And...I think coming over to meet you was one of the best choices I've made in awhile"

"So...do you...you wanna...."

Alfred was quickly shut when Kar connected lips with him and the 2 began to make out right then and there in the crowd. The 2 furs embraced each others warm bodies and and Alfred was pushed against the wall. For months the tiger imagined meeting Kar, let alone make out with him, but it was what the wereskunk said next that truly made this night special. Kar pulled back and whispered something into the felines ear.

"You can trust me"

Alfred quickly pulled Kar close and continued to kiss the hybrid for minutes. With that a spotlight shown down on the two and Josh removed his headphones, and let a smile slip free.

"Way to go big brother"

With that Kar and Alfred spent the rest of the night on the dancefloor, getting to know each others past and possibly start a new future together.
