Quick Disclaimer. I am not a writer, haha.

This is my first time tackling this kind of field, I have zero actual experience in writing and I just jump right in here without any proper research because of the lack of Finnick. His my fave cute little character.

So please be gentle with me. (I've reread the story, chapter 1-3 sucks, you have been warned, haha.)

The bell rang and sounds of rustling bag and footsteps was everywhere. An indication that school was over, it was time to go...home.

Outside was loud, as the students chatted away as they went to different paths.

Finnick, a small fennec fox with dark brown eyes and sand colored fur, waited outside the school ground for his ride. Nick was going to pick him up after school today.

Nick was...the guy who's looking out for Finnick, most of the time. They have known each other for a long time now, being partners in crime and all. They experience all kinds of hustling and con artist schemes, shared a few runs and laughs...it was an okay life, he didn't mind the hard work in a young age, it was nice.

Until Nick got involve in that random case he wasn't supposed to be in.

It was a normal day for a scheme he and Nick were planning for a while, the last scheme went perfectly so they were shooting for two days in a row. Everything was ready, Finnick in his costume and in the stroller, and Nick ready to talk when have to. Nick was pushing the stroller to the venue acting normal, Finnick snored loudly to get some attention from the crowd, and it was just for laughs. Then out of nowhere a rabbit stop them, it was the same rabbit that they bump into from their last scheme. Nick and the rabbit had a little conversation that led to Finnick wanting to leave because he did not want to get involve with it, Nick can handle himself, and he knows that.

And apparently that was not entirely true, because after all of that disaster happened in zootopia, Nick left him to go somewhere not telling him where. "Don't worry! I'll be back and it will be a surprise!" Nick said, leaving the small fox alone in the van.

He left so Finnick had to fend for himself for now, it was difficult to do scams if you're doing it alone, especially if you're as small as Finnick. He needed to up his game, that's how he's been surviving so that how he'll be doing it, being rough, swift, cunning, smart and intimating. He managed but it didn't always go as smooth as it should have, he sometimes tag with Duke when times gets desperate, it was still a nice run. He gets mail from Nick once in a while filled with money and a letter telling how his been doing, whatever scheme he is up to it seems to be going well to keep the money going.

Ten months later Nick came back surprising the small fox with the uniform he was wearing. Nick became a cop...A freaking cop. The kind of cop where they put you in bars if they knew that you've been doing some illegal stuff. Nick became one of them because of that case he was in, it was weird at first, he said the stuff he did in the past was voided due to his actions, and it seems he drag Finnick with him as well.

Now they are living a normal life, sure he kind of miss all the scams, schemes and runs that he and Nick has been doing for the past few years, but he'll need to adjust...for Nick's sake, he was the one who took him in, and he made him go back to school...ugh he did not like that idea. There is a reason why he drop out of school in the first place, and now Nick put him back in there...just great.

A car stop itself in front of small fox, it was a police car, why didn't Nick use the van? The door opened and what greeted him was not Nick. It was a bunny, the officer that drag Nick into that case, the officer that got Nick into the police business...and all in all Nick's new partner in crime…Officer Judy Hopps...and from the looks of it the officer that will be driving him...home today.

"Come on finni, let's go." said Judy in her cheery voice.

Finnick stared at her for a moment with confusion, then hop into the vehicle after, he had difficulty due to his size and all but he still manage to get in by himself. He closed the door and off they went into the road.

Judy was a rabbit, grey fur and purple eyes, she has an average height for a bunny, a tough gal for her size. One of the top officers in the ZPD, animals' respect her for what happened a few months back, she didn't fit in at first but now she does. She's a nice one, pretty too, always with her positive attitude, looking out for everybody, having that bright smile of hers. Though the small fox isn't really that fond of her for reasons.

It's been a few minutes in the ride and it's been quiet, Finnick did not mind it, since he usually stays quiet during scams, but he could feel the awkwardness surging from the other side of the car.

"So how was school?" Judy finally said.

"Meh...it was fine..." Finnick replied.

Then it was back to the quietness, is Judy not good with the silent?

"So uh, where's Nick? Why did you pick me up?"

Judy smiled at that and replied "His on patrol on the rainforest, it was supposed to be Officer McHorn's shift but he had to be out early, and Nick owns him from last week so he took the part. So he ask me to pick you up."

"Last week? What happened last week?"

The conversation went on, they hit a red light and some of the passerby waved at Judy, and she waved back, she's very well known. The talk continued until they got to the apartment.

It was a big building but it wasn't too fancy, it was enough. The building was in front of a park so it has a nice view from the window and balcony, it was also near convenient store, a few minute walk. Judy also lives in the same building, she moved apartment when she found out the one next to us was free, so we're neighbors now.

The car stop and Finnick opened the door, before he could hop out Judy spoke "Hey so we may be late going home tonight, you okay with that?"

Those two being late is normal now, police business is hassle to understand so he doesn't really ask questions.

"Of course I'll be okay, what made you think I won't be?" Finnick replied with a chuckle. "I can take care of myself, remember when I pulled a bat at you when you knock at my van?"

Judy gave him a half smirk "yeah I remember, well alright then see ya."

Finnick jump out the car with his bag in his back, not seeing Judy giving a wave of goodbye when he closed the door.

When the car left he entered the building. He was supposed to take the stairs to his floor but he notice that a there was a white dog waiting for the elevator, so he decided to tag along with him. The elevator made a ding sound then it opened, the ones inside left and was replace by Finnick and the white dog. He watch as the dog pushed a button to the 5th floor, his apartment was in the 4th floor though but it was okay, he'll just take the stairs down. He couldn't actually reach the button because of his size, that's why he preferred the stairs, it's embarrassing to ask for help just for that.

The elevator opened then he went to the floor below to his apartment. R408 his and Nick's shared apartment, right next to them was R409 which was Judy's apartment. As for the rest of the residents in the floor...he didn't know any of them.

The door had a stepping stool so he could reach the door knob, he unlocked it and went inside. It was a pretty cozy place, not too big and not too small. The whole room was brown a few picture hang by the wall. The living room has a black L shape couch and a flat screen TV in front of it, to the left of the room was the small kitchen, two burners an oven, a sink, a toaster and a refrigerator that's all you need. The bathroom was as big as the kitchen. Each apartment has a balcony as well, a nice view of the park but not right now when the sun is at its peak.

Finnick went straight to his room which was at the end of a hallway, after Nick's room. Just like the rest of the apartment, it was brown, His bed was in a shape of a circle, filled with blue pillows. The room also had two stepping stool, a desk, a book shelf filled with discarded clothes and a closet, with an elephant costume hanging at its frame. But that's not the first thing you'll notice when you enter the room, the first thing you'll notice is that there is a hanging mobile at the top of his bed filled with stars that glows in the dark. Nick might have put it there as a joke but Finnick didn't bother taking it down, it actually look pretty cool.

He laid there in his room for a while until boredom hit him. Browsing the net in his phone wasn't enough to distract him. "The place is empty, might as well get out of here..." He thought. Judy said they'll be late so there is a whole lot of alone time, and the arcade may be the best place to pass time for now. He grab a smaller bag and went out before closing the door he look back, and stares at the empty apartment. He gives a deep sigh and closed the door, leaving the apartment empty for the rest of the day.

And again I am not a writer, though I would like to improve somehow. I may not be taking this thing seriously but I would like to take it correctly. I would glad if you point out some things that I may have done incorrectly…in a gentle manner, cuz the chances of me crying is still high.

Maybe I'll update this if it gets enough feedback?
