AUTHORS NOTE

No copywrite infringement was intended when i created this story. i have only taken the characters out to play and i promise to return them when i'm finished.

I watched Zootopia, then played Pokemon Alpha Sapphire, then watched the episode from NCIS where Tony and Ziva are stuck in the elevator... I have no excuse.

Songs included in this fanfic are: All Of Me By John Legend, Like i'm gonna Lose You By Megan Trainer, Calling All Angels by Jane Siberry, Not Alone by Patty Griffin, The Book of Love By Peter Gabriel, and many more. if it is directly cited, i will give the title, the artist's zootopified name and animal. if i ever use a micheal buble song, i am making him a hippo named micheal bubble :D it's only right.

I would like art to go with my story, so if any of you know artists or happen to be artists willing to donate art to this story, i would be very greatful, please comment in the review section for this chapter which scene you/they wish to do.

In chapter 4 there is a reference to my work, Burger King, and a product that we used to have, Red Velvet shakes. When making these shakes the syrup was a thick dark crimson color. it would get on me when the pump clogged because noone cleaned it properly. one of my regular customers thought my neck was bleeding when some had gotten on my neck and i hadn't realized it. when my boss needed to get rid of the syrup that he had over ordered, he sent it home with me and i used it durring halloween for fake blood. pretty cool huh?

ok, chapter five has a surprise for bgnsteal, the godmother of dr. white, one of the charachters i created in the story.

the reason it took so long to upload is because first i ran out of notebook then i ran out of ink, so there i am at 9 pm on my bike in my skirt trying to find a place that sells the only notebooks that can withstand my handwriting. and the only pens that can write upsidown.

ok, there was some rearanging of the chapters. i uploaded the newspaper article after i uploaded the chapter that had the headliner in it, but it made more sense for the article to come first, it was more clean cut that way.

chapter seven references a lot of the prezootopia ideas and presents another gift to a friend of mine, named Jenna. she is the only person i know in the real world[outside of the internet] with whom i have shared my writing. and for those who were expecting more to happen or be revieled in that bed, the answer is no. not in this story. you are not allowed to be mad at Mrs. Gruffmyer for interupting.

Chapter 8 introduces another gift for Jenna, and one for miranda at the tail end who just saw the jungle book. it also introduces Mina, Judy's favorite niece. i'm sure the story seems a little outlandish, but sometimes things do get a little outlandish.

with regards to how many times nick got hurt in Chapters 9, 10 and 11; no i'm not sorry for it, they are all important to the plotline of the story. do i feel guilty that i had to do it, yes, but i'm not sorry that i did it. yes chapter 10 counts, that's a lot of emotional pain and anguish.

i know i should put each chapters AN in the chapter, but that is a little messy in my stories and i can never word them properly. so thats why the chapters are just chapters and the authors notes are all at the begining.

Please know that this will take time for me to finish, i write things in a notebook before i type it up. thats how i gather my thoughts. i'm trying to make it so that everything happens the same way in my story as it does in the movie [ie: when nick is getting dressed, nothing is seen even if you are looking right at him. there is also no real concept of time.]

This first chapter will change as i find more things that may need addressed, so keep rereading the authors note with each new chapter.

I have a wish for this story, my wish is that this story inspires someone to not be afraid. where ever your heart goes, whatever you are passionate about, whatever you truly love and cant get enough of, never feel guilty for putting your heart where it feels it belongs.

Please Read/Review/Follow/Favorite as your beautiful hearts desire.
