I just stood there; Staring at the lion's dead body, blocking out everything else around me. I was like at a stand still and all the noise and the other mammals where white noise. Each officer always carried one pistol that shot bullets along with their dart pistol, but we only used those when the situation is dire and I know this situation required for it but...I've never seen someone die in front of me before.

I could see others gathered around but were block by police tape.

Why did this have too happen?

I was snapped out of my trance I felt a paw in my shoulder, I looked up to see it was Fangmeyer looking at me with concerned eyes.

" Judy-

"I'm fine Robert, I know you had no choice" I cut him off curtly as I returned my gaze to the body that was being taken away by a gerney and put into the ambulance.

He looked at me then to ambulance with a somber expression. He then realized something that caused him to let go of my shoulder immediately.

"Dear God!, Judy why haven't you let the EMTs do something about your arm yet"he practically hissed as he signaled for one to come over.

I looked at him and then at my limp dislocated arm that a deer EMT was now looking at.

"Sorry...I kind of forgot about it" I said monotonely.

"I'm surprised your not feeling it right now" Fangmeyer said.

"Well normal circustances she would be but I'm guessing do to adreniline she can't feel it right now" the EMT said while feeling my shoulder and arm.

"You will need to come with us, I'll put your arm in a sling"

"Can you just pop it back into place" I asked the EMT.

He looked surprised at my request, Fangmeyer not so much.

"Are you sure Officer? it's going-

"It will fix my arm faster right, please do it" I cut him off.

He looked at me then to Fangmeyer who nodded confirming him there was no way of talking me out of this.

"Ok... " He said as he as he made me sit on the sidewalk and used both his hooves too grip my arm firmly.

"Just to tell you your going to feel intense pain but it will last only a couple seconds" he warned me.

I nodded in compliance.

He then pulled my arm in a strong tug causing a loud pop. I gritted my teeth in pain, he wasn't lying it hurt like Hell but the pain dissapered after a couple seconds just like he said.

"You ok" Fangmeyer asked me.

"Yea" I said as I shook my arm, trying to get the feeling back into it.

Fangmeyer told the EMT it was ok for him to go back to help his partner bringing to body to the coroner.

"Let's head back to the percint, did you bring your car?" he asked as he helped me up.

"No I was in the area so I ran here"

"We'll give you a lift with ours"

I nodded and then pulled out my phone to call Nick.


We had had been waiting for the coroner for like a hour, I know autopsies were not quick and there where other autopsies a head of ours but you would think after what happen today ours would be top priority. I ran a paw through my ears.

Sweet cheese and crackers I hate waiting

I was also ticked off cause I called Nick 15 times and he still hadn't picked up the phone.

Nick where are you? You dumb fox

"Have you got a hold of Nick yet" a voice asked me

I turned to see it was Fangmeyer.

"No" I practically hissed but then sighed.

"Sorry" I apologized softly.

"It's ok...it's been a bad day for all of us" he said.

I put my back against the wall and slide down to sit and Fangmeyer came over to sit right next to me. I looked at him, nervous for what I'm about to ask him.

"Robert I know this will be inappropriate to ask...but how many mammals have-

"Have I shot?" he finished for her.

My ears drooped and I nodded.

"Including today...about 4" he said plainly.

I turned my head away to look at the ground.

"How many of them...had died?" she knew she should have stopped after the first question but the morbid curiosity was biting at her.

He sighed and rubbed his eyes.

"Inculding today...3, and all those situations I no choice in the matter."

His gaze softened a little.

"Judy...you realize when you signed up for this job this would probably happen someday."

I knew he was right, being police officer your were going deal with criminals and suspects in circumstances that would end badly, it was another part of her career she tried desperately to avoid.

"And someday... You might have to be the one to pull the trigger."

Her eyes widen at the truth.

Could I be able to do that?

"Um officers?"

They turned there heads to the voice to see it was the coroner Dr. Vincent Canid a maned wolf. He was like mixture between a fox and a wolf but neither, some mammals were a little creeped out by him just because his appearance was strange. But most of the percint knew him pretty well and knew he was just a shy and polite mammel, nothing creepy about him at all.

" I can tell my findings now...but if you want I-

"No it's fine just tell us" I said as I quickly got up, not wanting to wait anymore. Fangmeyer also stood up.

"His name was Henry Roarton age 35, he was easy to find due he's in the system."

"For drugs?" I asked.

"No for assault actually" He said as he looked at some papers.

"He apparently had a altercation with another mammel he worked with at a gym, that was his only arrest nothing with drugs...but there is something I need to tell you about that though" He said grimly.

My ears picked up at this.

"This drug made his vains turn blue and pupils enlarged...I've never seen anything like this, along with the systems both of you told me about...I did some further testing to find It was Nighthowler mixed with a performance enhancer.

My eyes widen in horror, I looked at Fangmeyer and he had the same reaction
as me.

"Vincent how could this guy be on that! Yes was he high as kite but not savage, he could walk and talk"

"I think it's because it wasn't just pure Nighthowler, along with performance enhancer there was some cemical compounds that where much different then the previous Nighthowler formula...would also explain why he had that much strength and his resistance to the darts, but few more of those would have killed him if the bullet hadn't."

My ear dropped at this comment.

Where could he gotten Nighthowler?

After what happen a year ago, the city passed a law that only mammals with a medical,agricultural, botanist or chemist licenwe could buy, sell, or grow them now.

"I also found this in his pocket, it has the drug residue on it" he said as handed Judy a little plastic baggy that had on it what look like a blue rain drop.

"I've never seen this before even with all my drug busts... What about you Robert?" she asked him while showing him the baggy.

He shook his head.

"We need to tell Bogo Nighthowler is being sold as street drug."

I walked right past him.

"Judy were are going?" he asked.

" To find my idiot partner" she told him as she headed to her her cruiser.

After I gave up calling Nick, realizing it was no use I tried calling Clawhauser, Wolford, Delgato, Mchorn, his mother, and even Flash but no one had heard from him. His mother started to worry when I called asking for him and to tell you the truth I was a little worried too.

I was now looking for Finnick, the only mammel who probably knew where he was .

I been driving around Sahara Square for around 20 minutes when I finally found his van.

I quickly pulled over next to it then got out and pounded on his door.

He swung it open with his signature bat waiting to hit someone.

"Who is it" he growled but when his gaze landed on me his gaze soften.

"Well what can I do for Officer Toot-Toot today?" he asked sarcastically.

"Where is he Finnick?" I said straight to the point.

"Where's who?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"My dumbass of partner! who do think I'm talking about!" I yelled.

"Whoa Hopps take easy" he said a little shocked raising his hands up defensively. I wasn't surprised I don't think he's ever seen cuss or raise my voice before.

"I can't calm down Finnick! My coworkers don't know where his, I called his mother who by the way is freaked now doesn't know where he is, and I even called Flash which wasn't a Picnic for me!"

He looked shocked at this and looked down at ground to glare at it.

"Damnit Nick I told not to do this..." he practically growled.

" What?" I asked.

"Nothing trust me Hopps he's fine I just saw him a couple hours ago... Do you want me to talk to his mom" he said quietly, as gruff as Finnick was he had a soft spot for Lillian.

I sighed.

"No cause I know she won't feel any better until she sees Nick herself, but maybe there's something you can help with" I pulled out the drug baggy for him to look at.

"I know you don't drugs Finnick but have you seen this before?"

He looked at it then back at me seriously.

"Where did you get this?..." he said with a low tone.

"Off a dead lion that caused destruction
In Savannah while high out his mind."

He sighed.

"It's called Blue Drop...I've seen this logo at this underground fight club."

Finnick was now driving us to this fight club that was being held at this old closed down amusement park in Sahara Square that they only do at night. Finnick insisted on taking me because they didn't usually let new mammels unless they where with someone who has been there before. I was wearing a white tank top with blue jeans along with blue contacts, after what happened a year ago I had become quiet famous so I didn't want anyone to recognize me because the place we where going to wasn't exactly legal so if anyone there regonized me, I was in big trouble.

When we got there we headed over to the enterance which was grauded by a wolf he let us in when he saw Finnick. There was types of mammals here both predator and prey, they were all cheering or taking bets on the fighters that were in the arena which was in the middle of the park. Some mammals had even climbed onto some of the old rides to get a better look.

"Finnick haven't seen you in awhile man"

We turned to see Lynx in dark grey shirt and jeans walking up to us.

"What can I say, been busy with work" he shrugged.

He chuckled.

He then turned his gaze to me looking me up and down.

" Wow Finn I didn't know you where a prey chaser or liked them young but I'm not surprised she is hot"he grinned.

I was insulted and Finnick didn't appreciate the comment ethier.

" Are fucking with me Dick she's young enough to be my daughter and I'm definitely not a prey chaser!" he barked at him.

Finnick was older then Nick,probably around 10 years older if I would have guessed.

" Then who is she" he asked with a raised eyebrow.

"She's-

" I want to sign up to fight" I cut him off.

Finnick turned to look at me in shock.

"A bunny wants to participate in a fight club?" he asked me in disbelief.

" In Zootopia you can be anything right" I said with my arms crossed, looking at him dead serious.

"Alright it's your funeral, I'll put your name down and it is?" he asked.

"Laverne, Laverne Leapkin"

Somewhere else

A coyote with a pair golden eyes in a lounge was watching security cameras with interest. What caught his interest was a certain bunny.

Just then Dick came in chuckling.

"Hey boss geuss who signed up-

"Yes I know a bunny...this will be interesting" he said as he smiled a little.


Hey guys sorry it's been awhile but a lot of stuff happened over the summer and it would probably take more then the chapter to explain it all well I hope you enjoy :)
