Nick ran and jumped off the ice block in the Tundratown simulator.
"Look, i'm busy. You can't find someone else?" Nick asked.
"I could, but they wouldn't be you" Judy replied while running next to him off the course.
"Of course, you need me" Nick said jokingly.
"In a way yes" Judy replied to him.
"you miss me don't you carrots."
"Do not" Judy argued.
"Do to" Nick replied while jumping onto the Rainforest simulator and climbing bar to bar.
Judy laughed. "Okay, maybe a little.
Nick stopped at the end.
"Wilde, get back on the course"
"Roger that drill sarge" Nick yelled and kept running.
"Thought you were gonna get away with that sly fox?"
"Kinda, your pretty important carrots" Nick replied sarcastically.
"May wanna close your mouth on this one" Judy said as Nick jumped into the Sahara square simulator and began to crawl.
Judy waited for Nick at the end.
Nick finished and brushed the sand off him.
"12:06, better bring that time down Wilde"
"I can't have a slow partner Nick come on" Judy said sarcastically.
Nick smiled sarcastically.
"Carrots... You may not have noticed."
"Noticed what?" Judy replied.
Nick pulled a pistol from out behind him.
Judy checked her holster to discover it was hers.
"Clever fox" she said sarcastically as she took the weapon back.
Nick chuckled and walked off.
"So will you help?" Judy asked.
"Let's see the case file carrots, I can't work blind".
Judy pulled the case file from her back pack.
"Murder Investigation?" Nick asked.
They sat at a nearby picnic table.
Nick opened the file and stopped on the picture of the dead vixen.
Nick looked up.
"Carrots?"
"Something wrong Nick?"
He took one more glance down and back at her. "I know her."
Judy looked at him strangely. "You know this Vixen?"
"Not only that but I recognize this pattern, I remember hearing it on the radio when I was a kid, the cops found a scene exactly the same."
Judy looked at it.
"Judy, you have to throw this case back, i'm telling you, the same incident, the officer in charge of the case was found dead in an alley with his head cut off"
Judy was shocked.
"I can't do that Nick. If what you say is true. Then we must put an end to it before more innocents die".
Judy left the academy with this fresh in her mind.
She felt like she was being watched.
"It's just your imagination Judy, control yourself" she said to herself.
She got in her cruiser and locked the door.
She looked to her right and saw an envelope she didn't see there before.
She looked at it it had her name and address on the envelope.
"Why is my mail here?"
She opened the envelope and read the words that made her freeze with fear.
I'M COMING FOR YOU JUDY HOPPS!
Judy dropped the envelope and felt her chest begin to pound.
He was good, whoever this perp was, was good, turned the hunter's into the hunted.
She took deep breaths to calm down.
Then looked up.
"Let the game begin perp."
