Before I start this chapter, I would like to thank you all for the reviews/favs/followers. I didn't think this fic would get popular, but I was very wrong. Here are some replies to some of your reviews.
MetalFox2013: very awesome the characters were Ryu and Guild
Yep! You got them right! The two characters that Nick and Finnick were playing were those two. Good eye!
Gallowaychi: An awesome unique twist, on the um I think Nick is well asking for trouble by flaunting his magic the way he has been. Granted he's just 13. It will be fun to read all the mischievous trouble he gets in and out of as he loved how you brought in Finn; who happens to be considered family with Mr. Big.
Thank you! This is a little older review but Nick did get into some trouble. You will see a lot of angry mammals out to get him for *cough* taking their money.
Cemsay: Glad Judy isn't dead.
I am too. I always imagined Finnick to be a little violent and that was a perfect showing of him and his hotheaded attitude.

There were also other reviews but I don't want to make this too long! Thank you so much for the support and enjoy this 1.6k word chapter!
Edit: Fixed wording and spelling issues.

'Yall know me. Still same old G. But I've been low key. Hated on by most these mammals with no cheese. No deals and no G's. No Wheels and no keys. No boats, no snowmobiles and no skis.'
Finnick bobbed his head to the music as Nick tapped to the beat.
Judy simply sighed as the rap music blared on her radio. Finally, Nick turned down the volume and then pointed.
"Right here carrots"
The rabbit gave the fox a glare who in return simple smirked. Pulling over to the curb, Judy put the car in reverse and squinted staring at the sign.
"Naturalist Club? This is where Emmit goes?"
Finnick let out a snicker and nodded.
Judy sighed but pushed against the door having no choice but to try. Going inside, she realized how dark it was and the low lights don't help.
Going through a beaded door, she spotted a mammal sitting behind a desk, meditating.
"Ohmmm….Ohmm…"
Judy got closer and saw that it was a very dirty yask with fur covering his eyes and flies surrounding his head.
The two foxes then stood back as the rabbit approached the desk.
"Excuse me?"
The yak simply kept humming, completely ignoring Judy.
"Hello?!"
…..
"Ohm…"
Judy groaned and then coughed loudly, a fly almost going into her mouth.
The yak shook his head and then pulled up the hair covering his eyes.
"Whoa..Hello there. Before you really go on, we really don't want any bunny scout cookies."
Nick let out a snort of amusement as Judy glared at the fox before smiling turning back to the yak.
"Sorry sir. I'm not a scout." Judy pulled out her badge showing it to the yak. "I'm here to see if you know who this mammal is."
She pulled the picture out from her pocket showing it to the yak.
The yak let out a sneeze with flies scattering everywhere.
"Oh yeah...Emmitt like came here all the time. He stopped coming all of a sudden...Yeah but I can't really say too much. My boss knows more about him"
Judy smiled finally getting somewhere in the case.
"That's perfect! Now if you could lead me to your boss, that would be even better."
The yak nodded, a smile forming.
"Coolio. I can show you where my boss is. Just across from here." he said slowly walking out from the desk.]
"Thank you so much. I really whoa! You're naked!" Judy screamed out covering her eyes.
The yak was completely butt naked as Judy turned around in horror just to see.
"AH! WHY ARE YOU NAKED TOO!"
There, Nick and Finnick had towels around their waist and nothing else. Nick did have his tie around his neck still just no shirt.
"Sorry Judes. Did we forget to mention thi is a naturist club? That means they wanna get more in touch with nature." Nick said smiling.
The yak nodded and slowly opened the door.
"Yeah. Nick is right. Ya know, he and the little dude used to come here all the time."
Nick let out a groan as he covered his face in embarrassment.
"Come on Yax. Don't tell the carrot eater about that."
Judy smirked, realizing this was a way to get back at Nick and Finnick.
"No actually. Yax...If that's your name, please tell me about it since it could be part of the case."
Finnick let out a growl pointing at yax.
"Do not do it! Do not even think about not doing it!"
Yax put a finger to his chin, deep in thought.
"Alright.. Let me think...Well, Nick and Finnick first came here a couple years ago. Said that a friend recommended this place in order to get in touch with his inner...mana? Magic? Anyways, he paid for a membership for both of them and they come here a lot.."
Judy let out a snicker as the two foxes looked away in embarrassment.
"Yeah yeah. Thanks Yax, can we get into the case now?" Nick growled out.
Judy smirked.
Foxes: 1
Judy: 1
Finally, the doors opened and much to the horror of the rabbit, everyone inside was naked. It was a lavish area with fountains and vegetation. Mammals were playing games, relaxing, talking, or doing other relaxing activities. Judy shook her head and let out a deep breathe.
Do it for the otter.
Walking forward, she followed Yax inside. Admiring the place, she was amazed in how fancy the area was.
"Nicky! Welcome back!~" a collective of female voice yelled out.
Judy turned to the right and saw a group of female tigers playing volleyball. Nick blushed and waved back as one of the tigers blew a kiss.
The rabbit couldn't help but feel jealous? No! She hated the fox!
Judy looked away, grabbing Nick's paw.
"Faster Slick. Don't have time to oogle your tigers."
Finnick let out a chuckle seeing Nick blush, being pulled along. Finally, the group stopped in front of hut. The yak smiled and opened the door beckoning them inside. Walking inside, the group found themselves standing in front of a desk and behind it was...
"Well hello there! What brings you mammals here? Oh Nicky and Finny!~ Welcome back!"
It was a female cheetah who was also naked. She had ear piercings and as well as an eye patch on her left eye, a scar showing through.
"Hey Meema!" Nick said smiling as Finnick waved.
The cheetah looked down and spotted the rabbit.
"Oh? Are you trying to register to be part of the club? Because I can help you out!"
Judy shook her head quickly.
"Oh no! I'm not here for that, I'm actually here to ask you some questions." she said flashing her badge.
The cheetah looked at the badge and then back at the rabbit.
"...You're a cop? Are you joking."
Nick let out a snicker as Judy angrily tapped her foot against the floor.
"I am. Does it matter what species I am?"
The cheetah raised a brow before sighing.
"I suppose not. Back in my days, we've only have bigger mammals..."
Now it was Judy's turn to be confused.
"Eh? Were you a cop too?"
The cheetah nodded as she pointed at a picture on her desk. There was a female cheetah in ZPD uniform with a smaller chubby cheetah in similar uniform.
"Mhm. That's me. If you were part of the force, you probably recognize my little brother."
Then it clicked in for Judy.
"You're Benjamin's sister?"
The cheetah smiled and nodded as she spun in the swivel chair.
"That's my little bro! He may not look like it, but he's a tough officer when it's needed. Should of seen his face when….Never mind we're getting off topic. I retired from the force when I got my eye injured. What do you need from me officer….Hopps"
Judy pulled out a picture of Emmet and put it on the table.
Meema picked it up and then nodded.
"Mhm. That's good ol Emmet. He stopped coming but I'm guessing because he went missing?"
The rabbit nodded as the cheetah sighed, pinching her nose.
"Thought I would get away from this kind of work. Alright. I have some information I can give you."
She opened a cabinet and searched for a few seconds before pulling out a folder sliding it to the rabbit.
"That should give you some information...Best you run along now and I wish you the best of luck."
The rabbit quickly nodded taking the folder before running out, the foxes following closely behind. Meema sighed as Yax left as well leaving her alone.
...
"YoU gAvE tHeM iNfOrMaTiOn! I dOn'T wAnT tHoSe DaMnEd FoXeS iN mY bUsInEsS!" Meema said in a darker voice.
"It wasn't that much. Now shut up and let me relax." she replied back to herself.
She raised her eyepatch revealing her purple eye with black wisps coming out.
"ThEy MuSt NoT gEt In ThE wAy Of MaStEr'S pLaN!"
Meema scoffed and snapped her fingers, a book appearing in her paws.
"The only threat is Finnick and Nick. The bunny is deadweight. I've been doing my best to corrupt the mana flow in Nick but that damned anti corrupter is getting in the way."
She flipped through the pages.
"WhAt AbOuT tHe SmAlLeR fOx"
Meema coughed and flipped through another page.
"He doesn't realize he has magic. The reason he gets all hot headed is because of the magic he has. Finnick's mana was a little easier to corrupt but I can't fully do it because the anti corruption that Nick has gets in the way. Both of them are part of the legends told by our master."
"ThEy WiLl Be PoWeRfUl AsSeTs If CoRrUpTiOn GoEs ThRoUgH"
Meema nodded.
"I know. We must wait until the right time."
Pulling the eyepatch back over her eye, Meema looked at a monitor and saw the foxes and rabbit drive off from the front of the building. Pulling out her cell phone, she clicked on one of the contacts.
"Yeah. They're heading eastbound. Probably going to go to sector B…."
….
"Mhm I'm well aware I gave them the folder."
…..
"Don't you try to pull that shit on me"
…..
"Alright. I expect payment by this week. This time, you pay in cash, not in coins."
…..
"You can't pay twenty grand in pennies. You know how long it took me to organize that shit?!"
…..
"Thank you. Alright I'll move on towards phase two. See you later. May the darkness guide you."
Pulling her cellphone down, Meema closed her eye focusing. In a flash of purple light, she disappeared. On her chair, imprinted like a rune, was a cheetah with horns, 4 cards above her represented all the suits of queens. All of the heads were gone like they have been beheaded. The door clicked locked as the lights slowly faded, the room going dark.

GASP! Different scene! Haha. Bonus points if you know what song was playing on the radio. No cheating! Oh yes. You are going to see more magic users now! Finnick does have magic, but just doesn't know how to tap into it. Since it's been so long, he has emotional problems since he has a lot of smaller magic surges (anger ouburts). Thankfully, since Nick is nearby with teh anti corruption/surge, he can stay safe. Just thought I would clear that up! Thank you for reading!
