[POV of Rogue Legend (OC)]

I start to approach the SWAT training grounds. Before I choose to walk into the front gate and do the impossible a mammal my size well ... would be that size. For being a fox I lended up taller than others. not too tall but tall enough. I walk to the front gate the officer looks at me, she kinda has to tilt her head but was surprised to see a fox at this height.

"what can I help you with mister ...?"

"Rogue Legend"

"oh your that new recruit huh? well ... go right on in the drill sergeant is waiting", with out a second word i take my leave and head through the gate. As i walk across the green grass I see the group I'm supposed to be with. The drill sergeant spots me and looks at his clipboard.

"You must be Rogue Legend correct?"

"Yes, sir"

"I like that tone boy better keep it other wise no one in ZPD will look at you with respect"

"Yes, sir"

"well take a knee", I do so with no questions asked.

"listen up! This is a newly formed program as you all know, so I hope that the people who pass this program do Zootopia good, now does anyone know what SWAT means?!"

A grey wolf lifts his hand in the air "to smack something?", they other recruits laugh so do I then I raise my hand "does it stand for Special Weapons and Tactics?"

"Yes it does Legend, good job for knowing that", the group falls silent as the drill sergeant kept going on about what SWAT stands for and how we are supposed to take on bigger and badder than the regular ZPD cops can handle such as Riots, Robberies in progress, Hostages, and Raids. The polar bear next to me looks at me like I couldn't handle it but my face remained calm. For you see, I've spent two years in the military. Off in a distant continent. I was mauled by a panther. The scars are still visible. All someone had to do was to remove my long sleeve shirt and they'll see them. At sometime the nerves that sit under the scars activate, leaving me in intense pain, like the phantom of that panther is there still mauling me. In which case I take pills so I don't feel the pain. my military service is the primary reason I qualified.

"so any questions ladies?", how standard.

"no? good, training starts tomorrow morning at 0500 sharp! dismissed!", and after that all the mammals started their way to the dorms. When I got there I choose a bottom bunk as I like to be in tight places although I would have grabbed a top one.

"oi you!", I look over my shoulder to see a timber wolf lookin' like he's on some drug, all too hyper.

"yes?"

"fight me you pussy!"

"and why would I do that?"

"because I checked you out if you really spent military time prove it to me!", the other mammals where trying to encourage this fight.

"and how do you plan on doing that?", like that he swings, with little effort I dodged it. He swings again this time I catch his paw in the middle of the swing. I twist it and turn him around and slam his paw to his back so he cant reach me with the other one being restrained. Slamming his face into the ground i shout out for the drill sergeant, it only took a moment for him to walk in with some MPs to calm everyone down.

"what happened here?"

"he swung first, I dodged, he swung again, I decided to put him down"

"well at least you didn't keep it going so I won't kick you out, for him though he's packing his bags", at least that's a good thing.

"but you better watch it other wise someone else is gonna do it as well"

"and if they do then I'll just do what I did to him", and after that the drill sergeant took the timber wolf out as well as his bags.

I wake with a sudden jolt. The pain is so intense I cant even reach my pills. I try hard to muffle my screams of pain. If someone hears me then they may make fun of me. But too late one tiny scream managed to escape and the smaller snow wolf above me woke up.

"huh?", might as well get help

"H-H-Help me!", I shouted quietly

"huh?" this time he looks down to see me spazzing out of control.

"oh hold on I'll get a medic!", this woke up the others as the snow wolf climbed down from the bunk. He sprinted out of the dorm.

"what's wrong with him?", a female wildcat said

"he looks like he's major pain" said an elephant

"well no dip Sherlock!" I shouted

"what are we supposed to do?" said the same wildcat

"PILLS M-M-MY PILLS!" Trying as hard as I can I point to them on the table. She grabs them and tries hopelessly to shove it down my throat.

"hold him down!", and like that the elephant and other mammals try their hardest to hold me down. the wildcat pries my mouth open and drops the pill in and lets go of me as well as the other mammals do. it took a few agonizing minutes and the pain like how it happened stopped.

"what the hell was that?!" said the wildcat

"yeah man you where just fine hours ago what happened?" said a lion

"if I told you, you wouldn't believe me"

"try me", I look to see the medic, a female lion

"I cant say it I can only show you"

"and how do you plan on doing that?", said the elephant

"well I remove my shirt and you see why"

"do it", said the medic

"well you are the doctor so I will", I remove the long sleeve shirt and the all drop their jaws. In some places where the fur hadn't grew back the scars where clear, in others they where harder to spot.

"who did this to you?", I had to say it other wise they'll never stop asking me.

"a panther when I was in the military, it was a surprise attack ... I barely got to my sidearm"

"oh poor thing", the wildcat that got my pill said

"don't pity me"

It's been two weeks in the academy. And we are nearly done with training. I'm at top of class. There is no one that can match the amount of skill that I have. I learned the name of the snow wolf is Jared, the wildcat that got me my pill was Coraline, and the elephant's is Jeffery, and the lion that helped hold me down was Jonathan. And they became like family to me.

"so what are we doing today sergeant Carl?" said Coraline

"well today we are taking another test"

"why with all the tests?" said Jared

"shut up Jared before a buy a ring and shove it up your ass!", I snicker at that little comment

"anything from the phantom pain yet huh Rogue?!", at that I just shut up and listen

"well anyway ..."

A/N : Sorry for going fast here I just want you guys to get to the good parts.

"Four weeks of intense training and learning and these five people that stand before me are the graduate class of the first ever SWAT squadron!", Said mayor Lionheart

"and I present them there badges, Hopps, Wilde, care to do the honors?"

"of course mayor", said the three foot tall grey bunny. I was the first to receive a badge, it came from officer Wilde the first ever fox in the force, that makes me the second. next was Coraline, then Jared, then Jeffery, and last but not least Jonathan.

"and to top it all off I'm having them in Precinct One!", and the crowd of people out in front of us started to cheer for us.

Me and the others (Jared, Coraline, Jeffery, and Jonathan) board the first train to Zootopia. We are all have a day to get situated. We decided to get in the same apartment building so we don't have to be too far away from each other. Coraline decided to bunk with me while the others got there own apartments. I asked her why she wanted to and she said "it was to take care of me when my phantom pain came back" But I think it's much more then that. the apartment was meant for a fox but since she was about slightly smaller or equal height we both fit in it just perfectly. She insisted that I took the bed but I wanted the couch. After that day was just all about unpacking and getting set up. tomorrow is another day, I kept saying to myself.
