Hey, guys. I'm back with another fanfic. This one's gonna be a three-shot about Zootopia, again. However, this one will be a Clawhauser based fanfic. Clawhauser Mpreg, to be precise. As far as those kinds of fanfic go in the Zootopia fandom, there aren't many with Clawhauser, seeing as how I think he'd be perfect for it. Which led me to do this. Don't worry, this won't be a dream sequence, like the Lilo and Stitch fanfic. Hope you enjoy it.

Clawhauser was so hyped. This was his first mission on the field in years. What made it even better was that it was with his two best friends in the whole, wide world, Nick and Judy.

The last time he was on a mission, he couldn't remember exactly, but it was a few years before Judy joined up in the force. Since then, he'd been taking it easy with a job behind the front desk. Of course, he saw that as a way to eat whatever and whenever he wanted, but that led to him becoming the ZPD's most flabby donut-loving cop.

Clawhauser was never ashamed to admit he was flabby, fat, or big-boned. But, just recently, the cheetah had just started a healthy diet and excercise regiment, which led to him slimming down and losing a good gain of weight. The cheetah still had a good ways left to go, and he was still tempted to snack on his donuts, but that's why Nick and Judy were there to keep encouraging their friend and keep him on his toes.

Now, he was with Nick and Judy on a mission to bust some creeps pretending to be scientists. Well, they were scientists, according to the case file report, but their line of work was more of the shady, twisted, and illegal kind of science. There have been reports of strange mammals hoarding these various cases of supplies, and were using them to create something that the ZPD theorized the crooks would sell to organizations that paid top dollar to use in their own nefarious schemes.

It didn't take long to find their hideout, a clinic office building just located near Little Rodentia, in Savannah Central. As the trio approached the glass door, a small sign hung above the handle that read 'Closed'. The three cops nodded to each other, as they searched around back. There, they spotted a tiger wearing a white coat and green medical scrubs, carrying a strange box through the back door.

Pulling out their tranq pistols, they quietly snuck into the back part of the clinic, checked left and right to see the coast clear, and then spotted the tiger walking down a flight of stairs. They followed the tiger downstairs into a basement, then took cover behind a large table. There, they saw a few mammals at a couple of other tables, laid with microscopes, trays of small tools and syringes, and boxes to ship in deliveries.

Judy signaled with her fingers, and counted down from three, two, one.

"Freeze! ZPD!" Judy shouted, pointing her tranq pistol at the startled mammals.

The leader, a waterbuck, pulled out a pistol and aimed at Judy. Nick countered by throwing it at the waterbuck's hoof, knocking the gun out of his grip. Clawhauser charged at the waterbuck, while Nick and Judy dived after the tiger and skunk.

Judy landed a firm kick between the tiger's legs, and he was down before he had a chance to strike. Nick, however, got sprayed by the skunk, leaving him stunned and blind. Judy ran to help Nick, while Clawhauser wrestled with the waterbuck onto a table. The waterbuck wasn't that bigger than Clawhauser, but he was strong to hold his own against the cheetah.

With one hand trying to distance himself from the cop and both eyes not taking their gaze away from him, the waterbuck's free hand was trying to scan the table for something to grab something he could use to his advantage.

That's when he found something. A syringe. It was small and filled with a liquid substance, but it would do to stun the cop long enough to give him a chance to get away.

The waterbuck jammed the needle into the cheetah cop, leaving Clawhauser stunned from shock by the sudden attack. The grip he had on the waterbuck loosened, as the criminal threw him off, and made a dash for the stairs. But, the crook was stopped in his tracks, as he was knocked into the wall by Judy, who kicked the skunk into him, forcing them both to slam into the wall, leaving them both knocked unconscious.

Judy snapped a pair of handcuffs onto their wrists together, with the chain looped between a closet door handle to prevent them from running, like she did with the tiger earlier, but with the stair rail.

"Ben! You both okay?" Judy said, rushing over to him.

Nick recovered from being sprayed and could see again, blinking his eyes again to help readjust his sight, then ran to help Judy with Clawhauser.

"Yeah, I should be fine guys, but there's this pinching in my stomach. Must be from that syringe that creep used to attack me." said Ben, holding his side.

"Alright, don't worry, Ben. I'm gonna call for back-up, then get you to the doctor's. Also, Nick? You are seriously in need of a bath after this." Judy said, pinching her nose.

"Aw, c'mon Carrots. It can't be that bad." Nick said.

When the fox sniffed himself, he immediately fainted from the strong odor. Judy shook her head, then radioed in back-up.

...

The cops came as soon as they received Judy's call, as she and Nick took Ben to the hospital. Nick and Judy were waiting by the doctor's office, but they didn't have to wait for long. A few minutes later, Ben came back out with Dr. W, a wombat, with the good doctor reporting that nothing was wrong.

"Are you sure, doctor?" Judy asked, for the millionth time.

"Yes, Mrs. Wilde. Mr. Clawhauser will be just fine." said Dr. W. "Whatever that crook had in the syringe, it wasn't life-threatening. After a few quick scans, it looks to be regular pain relievers. Ben will probably feel a little tense around the abdominal area, and a little woozy, but he still should be fine. All the same, keep an eye on your friend and if something changes or doesn't feel right, call me immediately."

"Thanks, will do, doc." said Ben.

"Yes, thank you doctor." said Judy, more relieved than Clawhauser at the moment.

"For now, Clawhauser. Just take the rest of the day off, and take it easy, just to be safe. Every little bit helps." the wombat instructed.

"No need to tell me twice, doc." said Clawhauser, stretching. "I can already hear my couch calling my name."

"With a healthy vegetable smoothie on the side." Judy reminded, intending to keep helping her friend lose more weight.

"Yes, mom." Clawhauser moaned, sarcastically.

...

The next day, Ben got up early for a change. Looking around the living room, he smirked mischievously as he entered the kitchen, and retrieved his favorite breakfast food, Lucky Chomps.

"Oh, how I've missed you, my precious little chomps." Ben cooed, tracing circles with his finger on the box. "I know we haven't been together for a while. Judy's got me on a diet. Ugh, if I wasn't trying to lose weight, I'd scrub my own tongue with soap for using that word. But, since I've been doing so good on this diet, I think I deserve to treat myself just a tiny bit."

Clawhauser poured the cereal and milk into the bowl, and savored the sight of his bowl. "Oh, just one bowl won't hurt, and what Judy doesn't know won't hurt her. Ooh, I am so gonna swallow you little marshmallows down quick, and give you a nice and warm home in my stomach for a few hours."

Ben raised his spoon full of cereal to his mouth, but suddenly stopped. Ben covered his mouth with his paw, and rushed into the bathroom. The cheetah hurled into the toilet with a loud hacking sound. Clawhauser moaned, as he tried to sit up, but then barfed into the toilet again.

"O. M. Goodness! Where'd that come from?" Ben asked himself. "I barely raised my spoon before I could eat anything. I barely had anything to eat last night too, except for that smoothie. I'd better call in sick and go see the doctor, again." said Ben, as he belched.

...

An hour had passed, and Ben was standing outside Dr. W's office, swinging his legs from the chair. Earlier, after Ben explained what happened and his condition, Dr. W asked to take a sample of the cheetah's blood, and told him to wait outside. Finally, what seemed like forever, the wombat finally peeked out from the door.

"Alright, Ben. You can come inside." said Dr. W.

As Ben entered the room, he turned to see the confused and concerned look on the doctor's face, his own nerves rising.

"Is it worse than I thought, doc?" said Ben, nippling on his nails.

"No, no. It's just... scientifically impossible, to say the least." said Dr. W.

"Sci- What now?" Ben asked.

"Well, Ben, you said you threw up this morning, when you barely had anything to eat this morning and last night. My first thought was that it sounded like morning sickness. I had my skepticism, but from what I gathered from the blood sample, it seemed my suspicions were correct."

The doctor inhaled deeply. "Mr. Clawhauser... You're pregnant."

Ben felt like his jaw would hit the floor. "D-d-did you just say what I-I think you said, doc?" he stuttered.

"Yes, I'm just as baffled about this as you!" said Dr. W. "I mean, how could a male be with child? Males don't have the proper organs of reproductiveness for this sort of thing. I have many theories, of course, but they all sound irrelevant."

For the first time, Ben was trying to wrap his brain hard around this himself, then his face lit up in realization. The drug-smuggle case. The crook scientists. The fluid in the syringe the boss used on him to stun him and escape. It all started to fit.

"That's it! The shot! It had to be the shot, or whatever was in that shot!" Ben spoke out loud.

"What shot?" said Dr. W.

"I think I know what caused this, doc!" Ben exclaimed, as he told the wombat everything about the case he solved yesterday.

"Hmm..." the wombat pondered out loud. "It could be those crooks might've invented a formula made from cells of both boy and girl reproductive organs, or to be more precise, what is produced in said organs. Like say from the male-"

"Okay, doc! Too much information! I think I get where you're coming from!" Ben exclaimed, embarrassingly. "Can we just get back to the matter at hand? What am I gonna do? How am I supposed to have a baby? Where's it even gonna come out?!"

"Alright, alright. Calm down, Ben. We'll figure this out." Dr. W reassured.

"Now, the way I see it, you have two options. One, you can terminate the pregnancy. An option I am definitely NOT a big fan of. Two, you can carry it to full term, and the baby, or babies, can be delivered via a cesarean section. However, I seriously recommend you start losing weight as quick as possible. It's your choice."

Ben had some heavy options to weigh. On one hand, Ben loved kids, but he didn't know anything about taking care of them. Babysitting kids was one thing, because you only had to look after them just for a few hours.

But, raising kids 24/7 until their 18 was a full-time gig. That would mean feeding them, changing them, holding them until stop crying, and hardly without any sleep at all. That would make anyone go crazy.

But... on the other hand, there was the joy of watching them grow. Tuck them into bed and read them bedtime stories, seeing them go to school on their first day, playing catch, celebrating Christmas morning. Then, watching them go to college, seeing them get married, having kids of their own.

Memories and moments you could never replace for anything in the world. It was worth going through everything in the tough process of bringing kids into the world. Ben looked down at his stomach, which was only gonna get bigger as time went on. Even if it was from a crazy accident, the lovable cheetah still smiled, as he made his choice.

"Doc, I want to have the baby." said Ben.

"Are you sure about this, Ben? One-hundred percent? You realize what this means, right?" Dr. W inquired.

"I do, but I wanna try. I've always dreamed about being a dad, might as well take this chance while I've got it." said Ben.

"Well, in that case, congratulations Benjamin Clawhauser." The doctor said, shaking Ben's paw. "Also, while we're at it, I highly recommend you start getting rid of some of that fat, right away. That way the baby's chances for good health are high. We'll also need to start scheduling appointments to check up on the development, how many you'll be having, and the genders. Oh, but what're you gonna tell your colleagues at work?"

"Oh, I'll just tell them I started gaining weight again. But, I think I should tell Nick and Judy. I'm gonna need help, and I trust them to keep a secret." said Ben.

"Very well. I would like to see you next week, just to be safe. Okay, Mr. Clawhauser. I'll see ya then. Oh, and congrats once again. I'm sure you'll make a great father." said the wombat.

"Thanks, doc." said Ben.

As soon as Clawhauser left the doctor's office, he twirled and danced for joy. The cheetah squealed happily and stomped his feet. "Oh, these are gonna be the best months of my life! I can't wait to tell Nick and Judy." Clawhauser squealed, as he jogged back home. The more weight the soon-to-be parent lost, the better for his little tyke.

...

It was afternoon, and Ben stood outside waiting for Nick and Judy to leave the precinct. The couple just clocked out for the day, and looked to see an even happier than normal Clawhauser waving at them.

"Hey, big guy. What're you doing here? I thought you called in sick?" asked Nick.

"Oh, I did. I went to the doctor, and he said I should be fine, now. Actually, I'm better than fine." said Ben, giddily.

"What's that mean?" said Judy, confused.

"Well, lemme answer that with a joke. Nick, what do you call a three-humped camel?" said Clawhauser.

"Oh, c'mon, bud. That's too easy. Pregnant." Nick chuckled, and nudged Judy. "Still gets me every time, though."

"Well, It just so happens that there's a three-humped camel standing right here." said Clawhauser. "Me!"

Nick and Judy looked at their cheetah friend, and burst out laughing.

"Okay, big guy! I didn't think I'd see the day when you became as funny as me, but that certainly takes the cake!" Nick guffawed.

"No, it's true." Ben insisted. "You guys remember yesterday, with that case with the twisted scientists? There was that waterbuck scientist that injected me with that liquid in the shot. It was actually a formula made from the cells of both reproductive organs from male and female. It was injected in me, and now I'm pregnant."

Nick and Judy stopped laughing as the cheetah explained his story, and stared at Clawhauser in bewildered amazement.

"So, no joke? It's for real?" Nick double checked.

Clawhauser nodded. "I'll need your guys' help with this, though. Keeping it a secret from the rest of the guys at the precinct by telling them I'm gaining weight, again. Even after I start losing the excess weight to help the baby get healthier. I'll need help with that, too. We've already got me on a healthy diet and exercise, so that's a good start. But, I would appreciate a lot more confidence So will you?"

Judy's shock turned into a caring smile. "Of course, Ben. Whatever help you need. We'll be there. So long as you're healthy and happy."

"Well, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Though, my mind is still gonna need time to process all of this some more." said Nick.

"Oh, thanks guys. I think I feel the mood swings coming on, 'cause I'm already crying a river here." said a teary-eyed Clawhauser, as he hugged his two best friends in the world. "Oh, can we tell the kids, Cody and Shiela? I wanna see the looks on their faces when I tell them that they're gonna have a little cousin."

"Let's hold off on that, until you've progressed a little more with your pregnancy. I don't know how they'll react, but I think we should wait and tell them when it's a bit more noticeable." said Judy.

"Works for me." said Ben.

"Well, other than that, congrats Ben. You're gonna be the best dad ever!" Judy beamed, as she hugged Ben.

"A-hem!" Nick cleared his throat at Judy's comment.

"Next to you, of course, Slick." Judy corrected.

"My head, and my sanity, may still need a little more time to wrap around this. But, if you're happy Benji, we're happy too." said Nick.

"Well, what're we waiting for? You're invited to our house for dinner. We're having salad with carrots, blueberries, and crickets." said Judy. "The crickets will be on your salads, boys. Plus, the sooner we get you slimmed down Ben, the better we can tell when you're starting to show. One parent to another whose joyfully experienced it before, you'll thank me later."

"Oh, goody." Ben said, glumly.

The thought at having to eat salad, his least favorite dish on earth, was enough to make him lose his giddiness. But, the cheetah with a hard habit-breaking sweet-tooth knew it was for his own good, and the baby's. So, he could always learn to wolf it down with a straight face.

"C'mon, big daddy. We'll race-jog you home." said Nick, getting a head start ahead of Clawhauser and Judy.

Clawhauser groaned, as he jogged after Judy and Nick.

"More exercise?" the cheetah moaned, looking down at his abdomen. "It's sure gonna be a long nine months. I hope you come sooner..."

Well, guys. That'll do for this chapter. Next chapter should be up soon.
