Hello all, well first thing i would like to say is that this is going to be my first attempt at writing a full story. I've had this idea for a long while and it has accumulated from reading tons of zootopia fanfiction and given me a ton of ideas.

Needless to say you probably don't want to read a bunch of authors notes right away so ill sum it up fast: I'm new, hope you like the first chapter, would love to hear you thoughts, on to the action!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything that is related to zootopia.(kind of don't get this thing but taboo to leave it off)

Chapter one: I've Got the World on a String

12/20/2016 - 22:30 Hrs

Not the blare of the police siren, not the pounding heavy snow on the windshield of the cruiser, not the clapping thunder, none of it could dampen the mood Nicholas Wilde was feeling at the moment. Reclined in the cruiser shades tipped on his snout smirk in the corner of his mouth. "So Carrots, you think bogo will upgrade the radio in this thing if we bust this guy's safe house wider than Ben's gut? Nick quipped at his very excited bunny of a partner. "That's Rude Nick!" She retorted trying to hide a snort of laughter and a bigger smile than the one she already had on her face

Over the past few months after Nick's graduation from the academy there was increased amount of drug cartel activity all across Zootopia due to the release of a new drug, Howler. The drug was basically the same as the Dangerous toxin causing the psychotic devolution of mammal minds to savagery just watered-down and synthesized with a dash of LSD for a kick of hallucinogenic enjoyment. However, that was with a properly mixed batch, none of which cases they came across ever seemed like they achieved the intended effect. Nick felt a twinge of anxiousness causing his fur to rise slightly remembering some of the violent encounters they had in the past few weeks: three accounts of attempted suicide, four accounts of sexual assault, six muggings, and one particularly nasty failed attempt at murder. They did not show any signs of slowing regardless of the holidays happening… Though through all of this Carrots had kept a positive attitude thus Nick was determined to do the same. Besides Compared to where he was over a year ago, he had it good.

He had a stable job offering a pretty above average payroll nothing compare to the old income he received during his hustling days, but it had it's other benefits including a clean conscience. He managed to get a decent apartment near the precinct pulling a few favors from day's past to get it a below average rent; but probably the most joy, bringing thing he had in his life was a partner, he could trust with his life, not only was Carrots that she was so much more than just his partner though he couldn't exactly pinpoint how much. All he knew was that without her he would be nothing, not now, not ever. She had been his guardian angel on more one occasion. Judy made him feel like he had the world in his paws. No matter what happened as long as he was with her they could overcome it.

He chuckled at the thought, realizing it sounded very romantic, only the back of his mind taking note that it might of been intentional.

Judy picking up on the chuckle grinned towards him as she drove, saying " What's so funny Slick?"

Nick coming back down from his mental cloud of thought snarked back, "Thinking about the face the mammal's leading the making of these Howlers face when he see your cute bunny tail busting in the door to roast his ass"

At the mention of her being cute she quickly glared a dagger at the tod wishing she could reach over and give him a deserved punch. Sadly the oversized police cruiser did not allow for her to be able to reach him from the driver's seat. Her discomfort causing Nick to break into a fit of laughter.

They were on their way to arrest a crime boss who has been funding the production of howlers for the past four months and had caused multiple other tragedies to occur in the life of the sub utopian city they called home. His name was Joe Masseria, a moose, who had come to zootopia several years ago and had been running a war on the other mafia groups in the city. After several months of tracking him down, and many attempted raids on multiple warehouses through out zootopia, it was about to all come to fruition as they had all of his safe houses uncovered except for the tundra town one they were headed to right now. His men and allies leaving him stranded due to the inevitable collapse of his cartel.

As they neared their location the thunder began to get louder and the storm increased, an unusual combination of the deafening cracking of lighting and the near white out condition maybe driving extremely difficult, but allowed for a clear path the occupants of tundra town avoiding the frigid harsh streets regardless of species. As the approached a radius of a mile outside the safe house Judy flicked a switch turning of the sirens not that they could be heard over the cacophony of thunder-snowstorm Nick mused to himself.

The plan was simple they get close to the safe house located in the warehouse district of tundra town and slowly and stealthily make their way to the entrance evading detection of all guards and darting those who notice them but hopefully not many because unlike in the movies they were limited in ammunition. Once inside, they were to locate Joe and dart him, then call in reinforcement which were located about two miles from the safe house location as not to look extremely suspicious. If everything went to plan Carrots and himself would be bagging a moose leaving the straggling members of the cartel high and dry for command as they were raided easily by reinforcements. Carrots and him waiting safely with their captive and start of a prominent end to the howler drug cartel to boot.

As Judy shut off the engine of the cruiser having reached their destination, she turned to her partner and best friend, She felt a serious wave of confidence sweep over her as she looked deeply and the fox she couldn't feel safer with. She looked him in the eyes, feeling very serious at the moment. "Let's do this Nick…" she started Nick raising an eyebrow to her serious demeanour, "Nick if things go south-" she started to say, hoping to tell the fox that she felt she couldn't imagine a world without his company a thought that had plagued her mind for the past few weeks, that she needed him. Though before she could finish her sentence he stopped her.

"Carrots, things can't go south we got the world on a string. This is cake work we will be in and out before midnight" he said with a toothy grin making her confidence return full strength. She smiled and returned his comment with " How about we go get something to eat after this I'm famished, and I bet my nocturnal partner has a liking to midnight snacks."

The tod chuckled, "deal Carrots, your treat right?" Judy simply opened her door and turned to him saying " we'll see…"

Then they were off.

Judy was surprised how easily they had gotten into the safe house, it would have seemed too easy if not for the storm howling outside the metal door they had just entered after stealthy dispatching with the guards via darts. They Stealthy made their way through the corridors careful to stay silent, not wanting to draw attention to their position, unsure of whether their query could exit by some other passage in the warehouse.

As she passed each door she directed nick to stop while she put her sensitive ears to the metal trying to pinpoint the correct door that contained the target. As the hall came to an end Judy began to wonder if their plan had fallen thru not seeing another door to check. That was until Nick pointed to a blank wall that seemed a bit too new for the rest of the building. Even in the dim lighting of the corridor, it shined however just slightly unlike the rest of the rusty dull walls. Judy put her ear to the wall hearing voices and the movement of hooves.

'Got you' She thought to herself, signalling Nick with three fingers that there was three mammals in the secret room. She readied her tranq gun and saw nick do the same. She felt her fur stand on end as she heard a deafening sound of a thunder crack what seemed directly above her. She had an idea and when she looked to the tod she saw his smirk in agreement.

Nick put his hand on what seemed to be the secret door to the room and waited for the next flash of lighting from the window at the end of the hall.

FLASH!

They both stormed in the entrance quickly scanning the room, finding two polar bear bodyguards and very shocked looking moose. quickly darting the guards, then aiming both tranq guns on the still shocked moose Judy started the now almost muscle memorised word she used way too often. "You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you…"

The Moose made a sudden dash to the side drawer of his desk and two dart dashed through the air landing in the antlered mammal's neck dropping him instantly.

Nick grinned at her, " Why do they always try to retaliate" he laughed with his paws in the air.

Judy chuckled as she walked over to the moose to make sure he was really down for the count. Turning her back to Nick, who was walking to the back wall that was covered in what looked like a grandeur of various test tubes of looking chemicals including a very familiar looking blue serum. "Well lookie here" she heard Nick say as she finished checking the moose's pulse and eye's now looking over to the tod.

Though just as she did this she felt the same electric feeling of her fur but ten times as strong. At the same instance an explosion of white and deafening sound exploded in front of her, she felt a punch, hit her whole body as she was thrown back into the wall behind the desk. The wind knocked out of her, she collapsed to the floor head spinning. She struggled to stand moaning out "Nick you okay..." hearing no response her blood went cold as she realized the snow was falling quickly into the room through what just the moment before had been a complete skylight. The smell of burnt flesh hit her nose pumping adrenaline back into her body.

She leaped over the desk filled with adrenaline once again, only to collapse upon landing and seeing that where Nick was standing before there was not her smiling fox, but a tod in a blue and a red pool of liquid half his body burnt and smoking, no sound or movement coming from him not even a breath. She let out a blood curdling scream reaching for her walkie talkie half sobbing half screaming into it for help and an ambulance, she fell to her knees no longer able to stand. She heard a clock chime as it hit midnight, but only one thought plagued her mind.

'I just watched Nick die'.

I hoped you liked it this is just the start i have plans to continue this but reviews would certainly help. Ill try to upload another chapter Friday.

And Please correct me on very obvious plot holes.
