A.N. Hey folks, Blue Tagg with the second part of the battle. Last chapter, Judy was about to cut a wire, hoping it was the right on. Is she right, and if she is, what will happen next?
Please review and enjoy.
"I hope I'm right," Judy said as she chose the black wire. Just then, a sound was made from the timer. They looked to see the timer had stopped, which only had ten seconds left.
Judy sighed in relief as she fell onto the floor exhausted. Nick and Paul joined her.
Mal looked at the trio. She was relieved that the threat was diverted, but once she looked at Nick, she felt sad and guilty.
She turned around, but when she glanced at them again, she saw Richard getting up, with a Night Howler gun in his hoof, aiming at the other.
Mal gasped in horror as she ran towards them. Richard aimed as Mal kept running. Nick then noticed Mal running toward them, but before he could react, Richard fired the gun, and Mal jumped over them.
"Noooo!" Mal yelled as she jumped in front of them, taking the shot. She then fell onto the ground.
"MAL!" Nick yelled as he ran towards her. He then kneeled as Mal was turning Savage. He then held her paw. "Mal, look at me. It'll be okay, just keep your eyes on me!"
Mal did her best to look at Nick with what she had left, until she went completely Savage.
Nick sighed in defeat as the racoon looked at him. Mal then turned his attention to Richard and pounced him.
"Aaaaagggghhh!" Richard screamed as Mal jumped him and started ripping his wool. "GET HER OFF ME, GET HER OFF OF ME!"
Mal was ripping Richard apart. Just then, the Savage Mal got hit with a tranquiliser dart, courtesy of Judy. Nick walked over to the unconscious raccoon.
"I'm sorry Mal," Nick said as he held her close.
He then heard Richard's breathing. They turned to see Richard, still standing with some of his wool torn off and a few scratches.
"Think you've won, mangy dog," Richard said threating. "I'll have you know…" Richard was interrupted when Nick approached him, looking angry.
"You turned Mal against, caused her much pain, threaten my city, you're asking for trouble young man. And another thing, I'm not a dog, I'm a fox!" Nick said as he grabbed him by the collar and then headbutted the ram and caused him to fall. "Ahh, nobody wins with a headbutt, but I've always wanted to do that."
Nick walks away, but doesn't notice that Richard was getting up, but a bit disoriented. He then tried to attack Nick, but Paul hit him with his spurs and paralysed him.
"And that, ends that," Paul said with a smirk.
Just then, Bogo and the officers managed to get through the barrier and they came out onto the roof with weapons at the ready.
"ZPD!" Bogo exclaimed as he and the other officers entered, only to be stopped by Judy.
"Chief, Chief, it's okay! We kinda got things wrapped up here," Judy explained.
"Oh, well, good work," Bogo said. Bogo then noticed an unconscious Mal and a paralysed Richard. "What happened to those two?" Nick began explaining.
"Richard tried to Savage me, but he ended up Savaging Mal instead. And Savage Mal decided she had enough of him," Nick explained.
"I managed to sedate her," Judy pointed out.
"Then we better get both of them to the hospital," Bogo suggested. "And dismantle the bomb so no one can use it!"
The officers scooped up Richard and Mal and put them both in the back of an ambulance and drove them off to the hospital.
Down at the Savannah Central Hospital, Mal was given the Night Howler antidote and was put in a hospital bed. Richard was covered in scratches and had a black eye, so he was given a hospital bed, but was put under tight security.
Nick, Judy, Paul and Bogo watched the sleeping Mal as they left her room. Nick, Judy and Paul had told Bogo about what happened on the roof.
"So, Rammington held Malory hostage?" Bogo asked.
"Yes sir," Nick replied.
"And you saved her from falling off the building," Bogo asked again.
"I had to sir," Nick answered the Chief, which caused Bogo to smirk.
"You did a good thing Wilde," Bogo complimented Nick.
Just then a lioness doctor came up to them.
"How's she doing?" Nick asked.
"Malory has been given the antidote and was given a sedative, so she'll be out for at least a day," the doctor explained. "But other than that, she'll be okay." Nick felt relieved.
"What about Rammington?" Bogo asked.
"Well, he gained many scratches, might have to get a few stitches. He's even got a black-eye," the doctor said, which made everyone look at Nick.
"He called me dog," Nick defended himself as he pouted.
"And, the paralysis was strong. But, he'll be okay," the lioness explained.
"Good, because he'll be going away for a long time after what he did," Bogo declared.
"But for now, let's leave them to give them their rest," the doctor suggested.
They all went to the waiting room where it was empty at the moment. Bogo turned his attention towards the officers.
"I just want to say well done for stopping what would have been a crisis, again," Bogo said to them. Then he turned to Paul. "You too Paul Typus."
"Thanks, just doing what I can to help Mal," Paul said. "Guess it's back to my cell then."
The officers then looked at each other.
"Well, we're in the middle of discussing what to do with you, since you did kinda helped saved the city," Judy said to him.
"Really?" Paul asked.
"Well, we're still discussing it. But right now, I've arranged a little something," Nick said with a smirk as he saw what was behind Paul.
"What?" Paul asked in confusion.
Nick said nothing as he turned Paul around. Ahead of Paul was a little platypus girl wearing a green sundress. Paul instantly recognised her as she ran up to him.
"Paulie!" the platypus girl exclaimed as she ran towards him.
"Chloe!" Paul said in excitement as he ran towards her. He then picked her up in his arms and hugged and spin at the same time.
The officers watched with delight as Paul's reunites with his little sister.
Just ahead of them were a hippo couple. The man was wearing a dark blue suit with a white dress shirt and glasses, while the woman was wearing a simple purple dress with a white jacket and a blue beaded necklace. Another hippo girl, a fourteen-year-old wearing a yellow blouse and white jeans, approached them.
Paul and Chloe continue to hug, until they stopped. Paul was still carrying her.
"I can't believe you're here," Paul said to her.
"I missed you," Chloe said as she remained close to him.
Paul then turned his attention towards the Hippo couple.
"I take it your Heath and Gloria Poddle?" Paul asked.
"That's right, it's a pleasure to finally meet you," Heath Poddle said as he shook his paw.
"Nice to meet you too," Paul said as he put Chloe down, but still held her close. He then turned to the teenaged hippo. "And you must be they're daughter."
"Bianca Poddle, a pleasure to meet you," Bianca introduced herself.
"I just want to thank you for taking good care of Chloe." Paul thanked gradually.
"We're more than happy to have her in our life," Gloria said with happiness.
"And it's wonderful to have a little sister," Bianca said as she picked up Chloe.
"They're really lovely," Chloe said while in Bianca's paws.
The officers walked away to let them talk in peace.
"Nice job Nick, calling the Poddle's here," Judy said to Nick.
"Well, the boy deserved to see his sister again," Nick replied.
They walked out of the hospital entrance, only to be swarmed by reporters, asking so many questions.
"What was going on at the Clawdon Building!"
"Was the city in danger just now!"
"Is this another part of Bellwether's plot!"
The reporters kept asking questions, overcrowding the officers. Luckily Nick stepped back before the reporters swarmed. He then did a loud whistle, which caught their attention.
"Everyone let me explain!" Nick declared to the reporters, which made them calm down. "Was there something going on at the Clawdon Building? Yes, yes it was. But don't ask us, ask him." Nick pointed to the right.
The reporters looked to see no one was there. They looked back to where the officers were, only to see they were gone.
"You know, we fall that every time!" one reporter pointed out.
A.N. Well, that was the twelfth chapter, and all's well that ends well right? But there's still when Mal wakes up, and what'll happen to her and Paul now.
Find out in the next chapter.
Hope you enjoyed it and see you next time.
