A/N:I received a review seeing it was a hard to read so I read was infact right so I re-edit and read it again(#Forever alone).So I hope I made a bit easy to read and by the way English is my second language you speak to me personally. I talk well but when it comes to writing my vocabulary gets jumbled up so there.

Right now I'm trying to find a beta reader to help me with my story.

I hope you can forgive me with the mistake I with me people too make mistakes

Prologue.

Somewhere around the world, there was a city known as Diamond City, where Predator and Prey got along relatively well, no fighting, no violence, nothing like that was happening between them. Not all animals are peaceful though, there are some who wish to destroy others or even the world. Those mammals get their mind changed before they could do anything, or get stopped and put into jail for good. After such occasions, time passes and things calm down.

An alarm could be heard inside an apartment in Diamond City. The alarm reads 6:30 am. As the alarm kept on buzzing, a paw slammed the snooze button causing it to shut up. Meet Jake Barkin, a 31-year-old German Shepherd officer of the DPD. He is known to be the hero of Diamond City's police department for stopping every mastermind with his incredible skills, that made his reputation skyrocket. After a while, word spread out of Diamond City, making Jake really well-known.

Of course, there were some mammals that didn't believe this story, but Jake didn't care. His species was more of a guard type species than an officer type. In the end, he did become a respected officer of the law. As the saying goes: 'Don't judge a book by its cover.'

Jake was still in bed, not wanting to get up. He knows that he has to, his brother and the Chief of the DPD, Charles or 'Charlie' Barkin would kick his butt if he didn't show up for work. He forced himself up taking the cover off of his back as he sat up, letting out a yawn.

Another day of work..." Jake muttered. Getting up, he moved his curtains away, letting the morning sunlight envelop his room. As he moved the curtain, he realized his mistake when he was shot by the bright light of the sun, making him cover his face. He moved away from the offending light and walked to his bathroom door. Upon entering the room, he grabbed the towel hanging from his back and tossed it on top of the washing machine. He took of his boxers and tossed it to a basket full of stinky clothes. He entered the shower and took a hot shower.

When he was done, he got in front of his fur dryer and flicked the switch on. He stood there waiting for the hot air to come which he didn't have to wait for long. He heard the dryer turning on and felt his back getting hit by the hot breeze as he dried his fur. He switched the dryer off when he was sure his fur wasn't damp anymore, grabbed his towel and covered his lower torso.(Just in case some mammals were watching him change from the other building. Trust me, it happened before.) Then, he exited the bathroom while turning the lights of in the aforementioned room. He went over to his closet, opened it and found his most cherished uniform.

The police uniform wasn't original, it looked more like a bullet proof vest and suit combo then a normal uniform. The uniform had blue, dark blue and yellow colouring, a backup brace with reinforcing brown belt with 6 darts. At the shoulder part were an octogon shaped badge that said DPD with a dog face on it. Surprisingly, there was a pocket on the lower side torso aswell.

Jake picked up a pair of green boxers with a white tank top. He also grabbed his police uniform with his aviators, then put it on himself. He grabbed his badge and tranquilizer gun, its holster attaching his uniform like a belt. After he finished changing into his uniform, he hanged his Sunglasses on his short collar, then he finally grabbed his brush and started working on his tail.

He glanced at his clock. I was 7:00 am. He figured he could drink some coffee before going to work. He placed his brush on top of the drawer, then exited his room. His apartment wasn't that big, he had a modest kitchen on his right with the main living room attached to it. The living room had a sofa with a tv hanging on the wall, a coffee table and a dining table with four chairs.

He went inside the kitchen and opened the kettle. There was no water, making Jake sigh. He put the kettle under the fosset and filled the kettle with water. After being done with that, he plugged the kettle to a power outlet before turning it on.

He grabbed a mug from the top drawer before taking some coffee browns in a jar. He heard the kettle boiling, its voice slowly turning high-pitched. He grabbed a spoon, opened the jar and took 3 spoons of coffee browns placed it inside the mug with some sugar aswell, that's when the kettle started sizzling.

"I know kettle!" Jake replied to the object. Ending the kettle's suffering, he poured it in the mug and unplugged it before the kettle exploded. He placed the kettle back to the counter, picked up his mug from the handle and grabbed the remote control to turn on the tv to see the news.

There was nothing interesting in the news, but he was happy nothing was happening, because it meant peace in the city. Suddenly, he heard his phone buzzing in his pocket. He grabbed his phone and checked to see who was calling. Much to his surprise, it was his brother, Charlie Barkin, the chief of the DPD. Jake accepted the call and placed the phone next to his pointy ears.

"Hello Chief Barkin." Jake said with a sarcastic voice.

"Jake, you don't have to say that if we aren't at work." Charlie replied with a serious, matter-of-fact tone.

"Why did you call then?" Jake asked.

"You have to come to work." Charlie said, continuing his serious tone. Jake stopped leaning on the counter and stood up straight.

"What's wrong?" Jake asked, from his tone it was obvious that he was concerned about this.

"Just come now!" Charlie told impatiently before hanging up. Jake looked at his phone in surprise, not understanding what caused his brother to act like this. He stuffed his phone inside his pocket and drank all his coffee quickly before grabbing his keys and exiting his apartment.

Jake got in the elevator his apartment complex accompanied by different mammals. He pressed the G button, which stood for 'Ground floor'. When he heard the ding, he exited the elevator with the horde of mammals that were probably heading off to work too. Jake exited the building and saw a lot of mammals going to work or school. He liked living here, the neighbours weren't loud, the surrounding area was peaceful and the DPD was like a 20 minute walk. Remembering his brother's hurry, he decided to jog to the Headquarters. There is nothing better than a fresh morning jog, because your brother was acting strange.

Suddenly, he felt a soccer ball hitting his leg. He stopped and looked to his leftm where he saw a bunch of teenagers looking at him with curious and pleading eyes. Jake down looked at the ball and did his favourite soccer trick; rolled the ball to get it into a comfortable position, then he kicked it up before kicking it straight towards the teenagers before continuing his jog.

"Thank you Officer!" Jake heard the teens shout after him. Jake did a thumbs up sign before focusing back on the road.

Soon, the shepherd arrived at the DPD. He stopped in front of the entrance of DPD to catch his breath. As he stabilized his breathing, he swept the sweat away from his forehead. He entered the building and immediately felt the cold breeze on his fur. He looked around the DPD, seeing a bunch of officers chatting and laughing. Only behing reception desk was there a bored raccoon looking at his phone, trying to find anything interesting. Jake walked over to the counter and placed one of his paws on it while the other was at his side.

"Hey Martin!" Jake said with a cheerful attitude.

This got the raccoons attention. He looked up and put his phone away. "Hey, Jake. How are ya?" Martin asked looking at Jake.

"I'm doing good." Jake replied "by the way, is my brother around?"

"Chief Barkin?" Martin asked. Jake nodded. "Yes, he is here." Martin took out his phone, preparing for another long hour of nothing happening.

"Sweet, where can I find him?" Jake asked getting his arm off the counter.

"At his office." Martin replied, getting back to his own world with his phone.

"Thanks!" Jake said running to the stairs. He arrived at his brother's office that sais 'Chief Barkin'. He knocked on the door. He waited until he heard Charles' voice.

"Come in." Charles said simply. Jake opened the door and saw his brother working he on his computer. He turned towards the door and looked at Jake.

"Ah, Barkin." Charles said as Jake closed the door behind him. "Take a seat." Jake obeyed and took a seat in front of his brother. Charles cleared his throat. "Anyways, by now, you are probably wondering why you are here, right?"Charles asked. Jake nodded. "I received a call from Chief Bogo."

"Chief Bogo of ZPD?"Jake asked. Charles nodded. "What does he want?"Jake continued.

"I was getting to that. "Charles replied. "He asked me to lend him one of my better officers. Which means I'll transfer one of my officers to work in Zootopia."

"Alright...and where do I come in?" Jake asked slightly confused.

"You know what I mean." Charles deadpanned. Jake took some time to figure it out, but when he did, his eyes got slight wider. He realised that the ZPD needed one of the better officers, and he just happened to be the best officer of the DPD.

"Wait am I... gonna get transfered?"Jake asked looming at Charles. Charles nodded "And you didn't tell me?!"

"Hey! He messaged me this morning and all I could think of is you!" Charles defended.

"But there are many good officer beside me!" Jake countered.

"And you are my best!" Charles countered back. Jake opened his mouth to protest but he shot his snout knowing it was true. "Told you."

"Can I cancel it?" Jake asked hoping he could get mercy from his brother.

Charles sighed "Jake I know you don't like it. Me neither but don't you want to help the mammals of Zootopia and make it a safer place?" Charles asked. Jake looked down, thinking about what his brother said. He felt a paw on his shoulder he looked up. He saw the serious look his brother always puts up. "Right now, the ZPD needs good officers to protect that place. You do understand, right?" Jake sighed as he slowly nodded. "Good." Charles paw got of Jake's shoulders. "I've already sent Bogo your name so there no turning back now anyway."

"When will I be transfered?"Jake asked.

"Tonight. 9:30 pm" Charles replied. Jake got shocked.

"How did you get a ticket that fast?!" Jake asked astonished. Charles took out a phone shacked it left to right. "You got it from the Internet didn't you?" Jake deadpanned.

"Yep, you'll be packing all day. Your role call will start soon, where I'm gonna announce this to the precinct. C'mon." Charles said standing up walking out the door.

Jake sighed. He stood up from his seat and followed Charles to the bullpen. They stopped in front of the door where they could hear many chatters. "Alright, stay here. I'll call you when to come." Charles ordered, for which Jake nodded.

Charles entered the bullpen and stood in front of the podium. "Alright quiet! quiet!" Charles ordered. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at their chief. "Before we get into the assignments. I have two things I have to announce." Everyone was listening to Charles eagerly at this point. ''The first thing is, I'm a having a daughter." Everyone cheered, howled and clapped. Charles raised his paw, quieting everyone down. "The second news; O received a call from Chief Bogo today. He asked me to lend him one of my officers so there will be a transfer." Everyone was whispering to each other before Charles stopped it. There were several questions directed at their chief, which Charles tried to answer all of them.

"How will the unlucky mammal transfer there?"

"Why do they need one of ours?"

"ZPD? Isn't that where Nighthowler fiasco were?"

Jake heard all those questions and he frowned. He listened to Charles clearing his throat. "The officer that will be transferring there will walk in, right about now." Charles looked at Jake. The poor Shepherd sighed and walked inside the bullpen as everyone gasped. He stood right next to Charles. "Officer Barkin will be the one transferring there. Barkin, go to your office and pack your things. You'll be leaving soon." Jake nodded as he left the bullpen. He heard some whispers again.

"Is the chief serious?!"

"Why is the Chief sending his brother…?"

"I know you are new and all, but he is the best officer of the DPD. His stories were spread through onto the outside world."

"Woah..."

He heard his brother giving the first assignment. "Officer Lionfang, you'll be doing paper work, as you lack a partner now, dismissed." Samuel Lionfang was a lion officer and Jake was Samuel's partner. Jake sighed as he walked to his office.

Jake got a spare box from Charles where he could put his things in. He was in his office with Samuel who was watching him packing.

"So, you are really leaving, huh?" Samuel asked with a sad face. Jake picked up his mug and put it inside the box that was already getting full of his stuff.

"Yeah...Chief's Orders...but we're still friends." Jake said while opening his drawer.

"Yeah we are. We were always friends, remember what we did at the prom?" Samuel asked.

"More like what you did!" Jake retorted.

"Hey! You were part of it." Samuel replied. Jake snorted.

"I helped you a little! How could I have known you'd bust an ATM on prom! And it is your fault you got caught by the police!"

Past Time

Jake was at prom, wearing his dad's tuxedo. He walked over to a Coyote in a stunning red dress who was talking with her friends.

"Hey Violet." Jake said. The coyote looked over at Jake.

"Oh! Jake you really came!" Violet said as she smiled.

"Of course I came. You asked me to go prom with you." Jake said continuing to smile. Some mammals came over took the paw of Violet's friends. Jake looked at them as they lead them to the middle and began to dance. Jake looked back at Violet who was still looking at her friends. Violet got shocked as she looked at Jake who was holding her paws. "Let's dance" Jake lead Violet to the very middle they began to dance. Peaceful music playing in the background.

"Woah, I didn't know you could dance." Violet said as she spine still holding Jake's Paw.

"My Dad taught me." Jake replied as he grabbed Violet's Paw paw stopping her from spinning as they sidestepped again. "YYou are good too."

Violet blushed as they continued. Suddenly, a loud siren could be heard. Everyone stopped, includding the music.

"What was that?"An elephant asked.

"Samuel Lionfang! This is the last time! I'm having a talk with you for breaking the ATM!"A Voice said with anger. Jake sighed as he facepalmed. Violet looked confused. "So that was Samuel's plan!"

"What?"Violet asked even more confused.

"Samuel just bust an ATM...So that's why he asked me about tape...*Sigh*...I'll kick his but when he gets freed."

Past End

"Hahahaha, that was very funny." Samuel said. Jake grunted in annoyance.

"And you got a big smack from me and a big scolding from your parents for destroying an ATM!" Jake said. He took out a broken sunglasses from his drawer.

"Hey! I was a troublemaker before, but not anymore!" Samuel said.

Jake put his sunglasses inside the box "I know you aren't." Jake faced his childhood best friend. "I'm gonna give you something before I leave." He took off his not broken sunglasses that was hanging from his collar and handed over to Samuel.

"I can't possibly have this." Samuel denied but Jake grabbed his paw and placed his sunglasses in Samuel's paw.

"Please, I insist." Jake said looking into the eye of the lion.

Samuel looked unsure. "Okay, I'll take it." Samuel replied, taking the sunglasses from Jake paw. "Before you go." Samuel took an old looking watch from his wrist and he handed it over to the Shepherd. "Here."

Jake looked at the watch before looking at Samuel. "Are you sure?" Jake asked as he took the old watch. "This is the last memory of your father before he disappeared."

"Hey, if you are giving something important of yours, I'm gonna do the same thing." Samuel shrugged.

"Thanks, Sam." Jake said putting the watch on his wrist.

"Anytime, Jake." Samuel grabbed his own box as he left the office to move to another one.

7:30 PM Jake's Apartment

After roaming the city and getting a new pair of sunglasses, he went home. He grabbed a bite to eat before going to sleep. Jake was still in his uniform that he didn't bother changing before going to sleep.

Jake was peacefully asleep before he heard his phone ringing on top his drawer. He slowly opened his eyes and sat up rubbing his eyes. He looked at his phone and grabbed it. It was call from his mother, Lilly. Jake sighed as he accepted the call.

"Hey, mom..."Jake said sounding tired.

"Hey, Honey! I was told from your brother that you will be transferring. Where?" Lilly asked."

Jake got confused. "Charles didn't tell you?" Jake asked cluelessly.

"No, he only said you'll be transferring. When I asked him why, he said.'It's police business.' I know he is lying." Lilly said.

Jake changed the confused look into a shocked face. Charles never lied. "Um...well, I'll be transferring to Zootopia..." Jake replied sounding regretful.

"Wait...Zootopia? Where the Nighthowler started ?" Lilly asked with a serious voice.

I feel like I'm gonna trigger mom... Jake thought. "Yep..."

It was silent for a second before Lilly said. "Why didn't your brother told me this?"

"Um...you might get mad?" Jake asked unsure.

She sighed "Jake, Honey, I wouldn't get mad. If it's related to your job, I would understand but if you go there without good reason, I will go there personally and drag you home." Lilly Said "I'm just worried."

"About the Nighthowler case? Jake guessed.

"Not just that Jake, Predator and Prey never got along there, sometimes there would be waves of accusations of something that we predator didn't do. That's why I moved to Diamond City." Lilly explained. "I just don't want you to end up in jail for the things you haven't done."

"Mom, don't worry. I won't let that happen." Jake said with confidence.

"I know you won't honey, when is your flight?" Lilly asked.

"9:30 pm, Diamond Airport, Zootopia Airways." Jake explained.

"Okay Jake. I'll be talking to your brother now. Meet you at Zootopia Airways, Okay?" Lily asked.

"Yes Mom!" Jake said as the phone call ended. Jake sighed. He had only a couple hours left before he had to leave. Jake figured he might as well start packing his stuff before taking his uniform to the precinct. Inside the suitcase there were several clothings, his laptop, his favourite mug, some towels, all the stuff you need for traveling.

Jake took off his uniform. Jake now wore a black t-shirt, blue jacket, dark blue pants, a black belt and Samuel's watch. Jake was outside the precinct in no time with a boy in his paws, containing his uniform and gears in it.

He went inside the precinct, but it was nearly empty. Jake saw Martin's tail sticking out from behind the reception desk. Jake walked over to Martin.

"Hey Martin." Jake said as he placed the box on the counter.

Martin poked his head. "Oh, hey Jake." Martin said he looked at the box. "What's in that?"

"My stuff." Jake replied Martin peeked over he saw all the things.

"I'll take over from here." Martin said trying to lift the box but it was so heavy that Martin fell over the stool chair.

Jake winced as he looked over to Martin on the ground and the box was upside down. "Are you okay?" Jake asked Martin did a thumbs up.

"Well look who is it." A voice said Jake turned to his left. The rest of the precinct was still here and they wished him good luck."

"Well, Good luck in Zootopia."

"Yeah...I hope you do well."

"It was fun having you around, Barkin."

"I know I'm new here but I hope you do well and catch those Zootopian criminals."

Jake smiled as the other officers were cheering him on. "Thank you guys. I'll do my best to make Zootopia safe." Jake said as he raised his bare paw to his chest.

"I know you will, Jake." A voice said from behind. Jake turned around, and saw that it was Charles and Samuel.

"Charlie, how did the talk go with mom?" Jake asked. Charles visibly frowned.

"Mom was definitely mad, but she will understand. So, are you ready to leave?" Charles asked.

"Can you drive me to my apartment? I need to get my suitcase." Jake said. Charles nodded.

''I'll be outside my car." Charles said leaving the station. Jake he turned to his partner.

"Well, I guess this is goodbye Sam." Jake said smiling. Samuel smiled.

"I know. Good luck Jake." Samuel said. Jake offered his paw for a handshake. Samuel took his paw but instead of giving the Shepherd a handshake, Samuel pulled Jake close to him for a brotherly hug."

Jake was shocked but he returned the hug. Suddenly, Samuel spoke up. "Come back alive ok?" Samuel said looking at Jake's brown eyes.

"I'll come back alive." Jake said also looking at the lion's eyes before they slowly separated. Jake left the building after that. He turned around while walking away and saw everyone waving goodbye at him. Jake did a sad smile and he waved back before turning towards his destination. He'll definitely miss them, even the new guy.

9:00 Pm Diamond Airport.

"Jake, Bogo will give you your new uniform. I'll message you tomorrow night." Charles explained.

"Charlie, tell Bogo I'll come pick it up the first day." Jake said.

"Are you sure?" Charlie asked but there was their father aswell, Luke.

Luke was the former chief of DPD. His eldest son, Charles took over after his retirement.

"Oh, C'mon Charlie, you know your brother is a daredevil, he can handle it!" Luke said before looking at Jake. "Right Jake?" Jake nodded.

They were waiting for the speaker to go off and announce Jake's flight.

"The flight too Zootopia will be starting soon. All passengers please proceed to gate 15." The speaker turned off. Jake sighed and looked at his parents. He knew it was time to say goodbye."

"Well, I guess I'm gonna have to go now." Jake said trying not to tear up. Jake went to his mother first and gave her a firm hug.

"Please come back safe Jake and don't try any risky stuff, okay?" Lilly said as she was shamelessly tearing up already.

"Don't worry mom, I'll come back in one piece." Jake replied as they broke the hug. Jake turned to his dad.

"Be careful son. If you ever need something, just call us." Luke said giving Jake a quick hug.

"I know." Jake turned to Charles who was giving an awkward smile. "Don't worry Charlie. I'm not angry." Jake said while wrapping his arms around his brother.

"I'm sorry I had to this." Charles said returning the hug. They separated after a short time.

"Well, Goodbye Guys." Jake said as he grabbed the handle of his case and turned around.

"Jake, don't forget to call me when you arrive!" Lilly shouted after her son. Jake turned his head and nodded. Before turning back towards the terminal, he got a glimpse of his mother crying, his dad hanging his arms on Lilly's shoulders, Charles watching them while trying not to tear up. Jake closed his eyes and sighed before moving forward.
