Zootopia Reversed

Chapter 1: A Visit to Bogo's Office

Judy hated bullies. As she walked to Bogo's office she fumed and touched the scars on her cheek. Then she had to listen to this bully drone on about how messed up. She actually did her job and caught the criminal! Then Clawhauser called and interrupt Bogo's tirade. Apparently one of wives of a missing mammal was here and Bogo wouldn't even see her! Less than a minute later the Otter slipped into the office. She pleaded with Bogo to help her and even had a picture of her husband. Finally she'd had enough.

"I will find him," she said.

"Oh! Thank you! … Bless you! … Bless you little Bunny!" Mrs. Otterton said rushing over and hugging Judy. "Take this." She held up the picture she'd showed Bogo earlier. "Find my Emmitt. Bring him home to me and my babies. Please."

Judy looked up at Bogo and he grunted.

"Mrs. Otterton, please wait out here," Bogo said ushering her out the door.

"Of course, oh thank you both so much," Mrs. Otterton said and walked out the door.

"One second," Bogo said closed the door.

He turned on Judy.

"You're fired!" Bogo said looking angry.

Then Judy remembered something and smiled.

"You can't fire anybody summarily!" Judy said and her grin widened.

"What did you say!" Bogo shouted.

"The Mammal Inclusion Initiative set up a civilian review board to oversee the disciple of police officers," Judy said and then chuckled. "You can only recommend that I be fired. Then I'll have my day in court and I'll tell them how you have treated me just because I'm a rabbit!" Bogo took a step toward her balling a fist. "And maybe I'll speak to Vice-Mayor Bellwether. Then I'm sure the Mayor Lionheart will find this interesting too." She thought she actually saw was steam and coming out of Bogo's nostrils and smirked. "And wait till I talk to the media about how I was treated and how Chief Bogo is a speciesist." She could almost swear that his eyes were actually turning red. "And do have any idea how many Rabbits live in the five burrows around Zootopia? I'll tell you – 250 million." Now Bogo was making grunting sounds. "I'll bet after they hear how I was treated just because I'm a Rabbit a lot of them will come and visit Zootopia. They will shut this city down! Just how does it feel to be impotent, Chief Bogo!"

He dropped to all fours, pawed the floor, and charged. Judy hopped away as Bogo just missed her and hit the wall. She hit the other wall, pushed off, and landed by the door. She was about to turn and the door opened - Vice Mayor Bellwether was standing there. Bogo shook himself, turned around searching for Judy, and charged. Judy leapt back through the door and a moment heard the thud as Bogo bowled over Bellwether. He kept going, hit the glass retaining wall, and then flew into open space. A few seconds later she heard the crash below. She went to broken wall and looked. Chief Bogo was obviously dead.

"Judy."

She turned and saw the trampled body in the doorway. There was so much blood! Rabbits hated blood, but she forced herself to go to the Sheep. Judy sat and put a hand under Dawn's head lifting it a bit thinking it might help her breathe a bit better. Mrs. Otterton was beside her a moment later and looked at Judy.

"Dawn, I…"

"Judy, I need to tell you something," she said.

Then Judy heard running paws and saw a Wolf on all fours coming toward them. He skidded to a stop, took one look at the sheep, and froze.

"Officer Wolfard, right?"

"Yes."

"Judy."

She turned back and Dawn began to talk. Judy was stunned at what she heard, what the Sheep had done, and had planned to do. As she talked blood bubbled out of her mouth and ran down her cheek. Judy thought she might become ill, but then concentrated on what was being said.

"I'm so sorry," Dawn said.

She took a few more breaths and then went still. Judy carefully laid the sheep's head on the floor and then closed Dawn's eyes. Judy sat back and felt Mrs. Otterton hug her. They both wept.

Mayor Lionheart came to Precinct One and listened to each story in turn and shook his head.

"Judy, I'm sorry you had to go through this."

"But…"

The Mayor held up a hand silencing her.

"Judy, this isn't your fault. I knew Chief Bogo had problems, but I didn't think … well I wish you would have come to me or Dawn when this first happened. But probably you aren't one to tattle out of school."

"I would have done exactly what I said if he'd really tried to fire me," she said. "I just wanted let him know what I would do if he tried. I really thought he'd see reason. At one point he said that no one asked him when I was assigned here."

The Mayor put his head in his hands and shook his head.

"As I said none of this is your fault."

There was a knock on the door.

"Come."

The door opened and Officer Wolfard entered.

"Sir, SWAT took the subway car and arrested three sheep. It was exactly as the Vice Mayor described. The sheep have been interrogated and they have implicated several police officers."

"What!" Mayor Lionheart shouted as he stood and the Wolf stepped back. "Sorry Officer Wolfard. Who are they?"

"They are all sheep so far, sir."

"This is going to be the biggest mess in our city's history!"

"Sir, there are a lot of reporters downstairs."

He sighed and looked at Judy.

"Judy, why don't you take a week off?"

"Sir, I need to find Mrs. Otterton's husband."

Judy saw an odd look cross the Mayor face for a moment, but then he smiled.

"Once you do, you're taking a month off with pay."

"Yes, sir," she said and saluted, "thank you."

After sneaking out the precinct and taking Mrs. Otterton home Judy went by her apartment only to see reporters waiting for her. Fortunately her apartment had an entry system and Dharma, the apartment manager, had gotten someone to stop the reporters from following tenants into the building. Of course, that couldn't help her get passed them. So she returned to the precinct. She snuck back in and found Clawhauser still at the front desk.

"Ben about the..."

"Judy, I really don't want to talk about it," he said and sighed. "Come back here behind the desk. I think the all reporters are gone, but I'm not sure."

"I think they're all over at my apartment now and I can't get in."

"There are some beds in the basement where you can sleep or you could come over to my place," he said and Judy's eyebrows went up. "No! I meant I have a guest room and it ever has a lock on the door."

"Will I need it?" she said and smiled at Ben.

"No … no … no," he said and blushed.

"OK. Sounds good. I'll need to change clothes first. When are you leaving?"

"Half an hour."

"Good. So where can I get the Emmitt Otterton case file?"

"I'll get it," he said and a minute later he put on the desk.

"Only one page!" she said and looked at the attached picture. "Do have a magnifying glass?"

Ben and Judy searched his desk and found nothing. Then Judy spotted a cola bottle in the trash and picked it out. Then she looked through it and recognized something familiar.

"Popsicle."

"Huh?"

"Get your Popsicle."

"What does that mean?"

"It means I have a lead," she said and then saw a familiar Fox's tail.
