Why Am I Nick Wilde?

By VoltienDalchen

Chapter 2: A Bunny Cop?

So, permit me to recap the events that transpired in one hour: I woke up as a fox, walked around a cartoonish city with a midget fox that has a voice akin to Barry White (yet dressed up like a toddler) and I am being chased by a police rabbit.

I look behind me as the rabbit begins to gain speed, "Arrest the other fox, he probably made me do it!" I shout while I look back.

I reach an alleyway and soon find a ladder to climb. Bunnies are bad climbers…right?

"Stop!" I hear the bunny shout as I reach the second floor. She too begins to climb but almost loses her grip while doing so.

I head up some stairs that lead me to a rooftop ladder. I look down momentarily to see her catching up to me which causes me to gasp. I reach the rooftop and I look back to see her right behind me. I quickly jump and land on a lower part of the rooftop. I quickly make my way across and then I climb an air duct. I jump from the air duct and grab a railing. Once I make it over I am now running inside a parking lot with the cop slowly regaining speed. I reach a door and make it inside a building. I see an elevator and I press the button to escape. Once I'm inside I can see the officer burst through the door.

"Hey, stop!"

I smile and wave as the elevator door closes on her. I take this time to catch my breath. Once the doors open I am now inside a mall, but before I can enjoy the scenery my ears catch the sound of the bunny coming down the stairs next to the elevator.

"Crap." I curse softly.

I start running again but I fall down when I pass through wet floor (that conveniently had a wet floor sign). The cop smiles mischievously when she sees me trying to get up again, "Now I got you-uuuu!" She begins to sway as she approaches the wet floor and she also falls. Once I reach the point where I can stand up again I start running once more. I reach a door that leads outside I make my way down some steps to get to the sidewalk. I look back momentarily to see if the cop is still chasing me and wouldn't you know it…she is! I turn around and start running; however, I didn't take into account that I was crossing a street when the light was green. So, a car hits me.

When I wake up again I feel pain on my side from the impact and can see the police officer standing next to me. We're both on the sidewalk. Probably somebody helped to put me on the side, maybe the driver? That would explain why there was an angry pig right next to me.

"Crap." I say softly again but with pain present in my voice this time. At least I wasn't dead but the pain...pain of this magnitude usually woke a person up from sleep but in my case it didn't. Was this actually happening? I was seriously considering the possibilities by now.

"You're in a lot of trouble, Nicholas Wilde." She says.

"Look, I know nothing about it, I don't belong here!" I shout back.

"You evaded arrest, that's a misdemeanor!" The female officer retorts.

"Look, can we just work something out?" I plead.

She scratches her chin, "Hmmm? Ready to talk?"

"Maybe the small fox knows!" I add, "I really have no idea! I keep saying this!"

"Oh really?" She raises an eyebrow.

"Yes! Maybe he knows about the otter! I mean, why didn't YOU ask him before you tried to arrest me…he was in the video too!" I retort.

"Because he wasn't around when Mr. Otterton was last seen!"

"And I was!?" I shout.

"Yes, look!" She takes out a picture of the otter eating a Popsicle and me walking away. She puts it away soon after, "Look, I'll take those cuffs off if you promise me that you'll cooperate." She asks.

"Fine." I agree, "But I might not be of much help."

She ignores the last part, "Since you said that your friend might know about Otterton, we'll go see him."

"Assuming he didn't run off too." I finish.

"Let's go." She says before looking back at the pig next to us, "Don't worry sir, the ZPD will take care of this."

Later, (after the cuffs come off and we walk back to where the police officer first confronted me) I turned to her, "So…you're really a bunny cop, huh…"

She almost yells back at this comment, "Yes, what about it."

"Is that normal…" I ask.

"Um…aren't you a local? It seemed like you gave me a lengthy lecture about Zootopia yesterday." She answers.

I ignore this question as we continue to walk. Soon, I start conversation again, "That was an intense chase."

"Nowhere near as intense as when I had to go after a weasel...earlier today" The bunny adds, with that last part her tone was slightly filled with contempt.

"For what?" I ask, interested.

"For stealing two dozen midnicampum holicithias." She explains the alien word so fast that it completely went straight over my head.

"Um...what?" I roll my head to the side in confusion.

"It's a flower, okay?" She retorts, obviously annoyed.

We reach the street where the stroller was, but we are unable to find the small fox or the stroller (maybe he took it back to the apartment).

"Great, now we have to find him."

"Maybe he's back at that apartment." I say softly to myself; however, it seems as though the rabbit's ears are able to pick up what I am saying.

"Where?"

I turn to her, "It was an apartment complex near some blue bridge."

"Well, let's go then!" She runs ahead but then turns back to and rolls her head to one side, "Well?"

I shrug, "Sure…I guess." Before I go I stop her with a paw and ask, "What's your name again, officer?"

"Officer Hopps."

"Fair enough." I finish.

I follow her down the street to get to the apartment complex.

When am I going to wake up? I really got to find out the name of that small fox because this is really getting annoying not knowing his name. This has to still be a dream…there's no way this is real…why do I get the feeling that it's not? I have to get home and finish homework...it's 25% of my grade...
