Judy watched Nick and his troop disappear through the reserve and out of sight. Sighing, the gray bunny climbed on the bus and called the local enforcement to make her report. Judy was in the odd side of the spectrum here when it came to police work in BunnyBurrow. She went to the police academy for the ZPD and everything had been harsh and cruel. The slightest mistake and they would literally cut you off as incompetent.
Judy over came those obstacles to become the ZPD's first bunny cop…and she still was here in BunnyBurrow.
Judy started the engine and headed back to town to return the used bus to its rightful owner. The silence of the bus engulfed her as she stared into the distance. Six months ago Judy had entered the ZPD and had made a name for herself. She met several companions on the ZPD and she was quick to mix in with her peers. However this didn't count the amount of frustration the bunny had.
Graduated from the academy top of her class and had been working for over six months in the ZPD. What infuriated the bunny was that after all this time she had expected her boss to give her a real job, as a real cop, but he had basically sent her home. Six months on parking duty for…this? An escorting job? Judy grunted.
She hadn't expected to immediately get incorporated as a top notch cop but this. This was her 'raise'. If she ever thought that Bogo didn't take her seriously, this was proof enough. At least this job had some privileges, her neighbors weren't rowdy and she got to be near her family for a short while. Not only that, but the kids had been adorable. Growing up with 275 brothers and sisters gave Judy a soft spot for the young ones which helped in occasions to calm kids and other big events in the ZPD. Perhaps that's why Bogo chose her or that's what he told her, besides the fact that she was originally from the burrow and would blend better with the locals.
Finally reaching her destination and handed the bus back to the owner.
"How you found the bus Judy?" the old sheep asked.
Judy nodded, "It still needs a tune up."
The sheep laughed as he waved Judy good bye.
"I'll be back by the end of the week to get the bus to take the kids back to the station," Judy retold the sheep.
"Sure thin' Jude," Judy heard before she walked away.
Judy walked the rest of the way home. It wasn't that far and frankly she just wanted to stroll through her childhood home. Zootopia tended to be so hectic all the time it was nice to just have a nice stroll and watched how BunnyBurrow had changed during her time away.
The crops, the air, even the weather, had it all been this clean and fresh? So relaxing? Judy guessed it was just the nostalgia, after wanting to leave to make the world a better place she hadn't really given much thought to her surroundings. Now Judy bathed in the warm sun as a smile spread on her lips and she reached the border to her parent's house.
"Home sweet home," she said before stepping in.

Nick led his troop over to their camp site. However when they neared, the scouts debated theories of the best spot to set out camp. Nick swelled with pride on his small troop taking even more prideful steps towards their destined area. Sure, he knew exactly where they were going camp, but it was so amazing to see the little ones discuss which places were the best camping sites and debating about the pros and cons of the areas they walked by.
It reminded Nick of the old times. His first trip out to nature. It had been an experience and even if he hadn't been taken…that seriously, he had managed to get by with those of his peers that led an ear. He had to manage to increase his knowledge on the outside world and that was enough.
"Troop leader," said Bryron.
"Yes trooper Otterton," said Nick turning to the young trooper.
"Permission to scout ahead to find the perfect spot sir," asked the young otter.
"Permission granted," replied Nick. "But don't go too far."
"Yes sir," and the young otter rushed ahead.
"Troop leader I'll help Byron," said Brendon Thumper.
"Just be careful you two," yelled Nick at the disappearing pair.
"Are they going to be okay?" asked Bambi.
"Remember we have the local enforcement giving us a hand," said Nick. "We'll be fine."
Bambi nodded as they continued on their 'search' for their camping spot. However it didn't take long for them to come back jumping and pulling Nick over to the perfect place they found. If Nick was even prouder than before, when Thumper and Byron came back jumping and pulling they took Nick and the rest of the troop to the perfect spot they found and Nick had to admit, they knew what they were doing.
It was the place Nick and his companions had picked for the kids. It was perfect and it had taken hours to find, but there it was. Lay before him as it did that day when he and the other found it and reached the conclusion that this was the place. Nick smiled and continued to stare as the young scouts rushed to inspect the surroundings and deem the place safe enough for their camping ground. They mingled and debated, calculated and planned as the adults around him did. Nick felt the smile grow larger as the troop gestured him to join them.
"Okay troop this is the spot," he started.
"You mean we found the spot we were supposed to camp on?" asked Flower at Nick.
"Yep," said Nick with pride.
"Good job guys," said Noah.
Thumper and Byron smiled.
"We set up camp and we get ready for tonight alright," said Nick dropping his bags. "What do we need?"
"Fire," said Jerry.
"Wood," said Thumper.
"Food," said Bambi.
"Good, good, and good," said Nick. "We first set up camp and then we head out to look for food, sounds good?"
The children cheered making Nick laugh, "Now let's start camping."
