Wolfx1120: yeah after thinking about it, I'm going to change her name to Olivia as I really like it better than Natasha. Glad I got the kittens thing right, thanks for confirming. I might get back to the other Zootopia fic at some point since I kind of lost my muse for it but have been thinking about going back to it but I am glad you like them both. Kind of hoping this fic gains more traction but I'll keep it up as best I can.

Chapter 2: begins the fall

Bogo was going through some case files that had popped up in recent days. A lot of them being missing mammal cases. At first, he had just assumed that it was due to the other friends and family just not being informed about the mammal going off on vacation or something since the amount of time was only a few days. But as time continued, more and more mammals began to disappear. Not only that, some of the ones that reported the missing mammal went missing as well. The more he looked at how it was going, the more it seemed like it could be a repeat of what happened a year ago. One thing that Bogo noticed that was different from the last time was the speed of the missing mammals. They were disappearing much faster than before. He sighed as he got up from his desk and went to the bullpen to begin the day.

Once he entered the bullpen, as usual, his officers were all rowdy and pounding on the table and he always wondered why they would always do it but he chose to let it go as it meant that they were ready to start. "Alright, alright. Enough!" he put the files on the podium and looked over everyone. He saw that two of his best officers weren't in and he remembered that it was their day off, though he would never tell them that he thought so highly of them. Hopps, sure he could but if he gave any indication that he saw Wilde in such high regard, he would never hear the end of it from that insufferable fox. "Alright, we have a few things that need to be brought up. Recently in several districts, we have had several fatal vehicle accidents and so far we have no idea why. For those on patrol today, I want you to keep an eye out for anything that might be the cause or anyone that would be seen as under the influence. Now Officers Howlzer, Rhinowhitz…"

A brown wolf and rhino got up from their seats and moved up to the podium.

Bogo opened the file and skimmed some info "a few days ago, we received a call on a missing mammal. I want you to go to this address and find out what you can." he closed the folder before handing it to them before going to another file

Howlzer and Rhinowhitz left the room with the wolf opening it once outside

Bogo looked at the rest of the room. "We have another few similar cases so I want everyone to be on alert regardless of what is on your agenda today. Understood?"

Fangmeyer spoke up "sir, are we looking at another night howler incident?" She did not enjoy the chaos that the infamous case caused in the city as it made all predators' job extremely difficult

Bogo sighed as he also had the same worry "I hope it isn't Fangmeyer but be ready in case it is." he went back to the files and began to send out his officers

Howlzer and Rhinowhitz were driving through Savannah Central with the Rhino behind the wheel.

Rhinowhitz stopped at a stoplight before speaking "so, what do we know about this mammal?"

"The Mammal reported missing is named Karl Diggers. Badger, 47, single, no kids. He worked at the local market and hasn't been seen at work or heard from in over three weeks."

Rhinowhitz nodded as the light turned green and he began to drive again, following the GPS on the dashboard. "So, we're going to investigate his house then? See if there is anything we can find?"

Howlzer shook his head "no. we are going to investigate the house of the one that reported him missing."

This caught Rhinowhitz by surprise as he shifted his eyes to his partner for a second

"The one that reported Diggers missing was his coworker, Cynthia Patters. A Bobcat who was a close friend. She reported him missing when he didn't come into work for several shifts and wouldn't answer any calls. Bogo had tried to contact her again but she hasn't answered any of his calls, so he most likely wants to see if she has gone missing as well." he sighed as he ran his paw over his muzzle "with how many mammals are missing we might have more to deal with."

Rhinowhitz nodded "you think it's another Nighthowler incident."

Howlzer shook his head. "Wouldn't make sense really. The Nighthowler and missing mammals case although intertwining weren't really connected. Bellwether infected those predators in an attempt to get us to look like we don't deserve to be in society. Lionhart on the other hand tried to keep it under wraps and find out what was really going on. Sure what he did was pushing it, but he was trying to figure out what had happened to them. Whether it was for political approval or out of actual concern is up to debate but in the end, they were separate cases." he gained a contemplative look as he looked out the window "call it a gut feeling but there might be something else going on."

"Or it could be a very poor copycat."

Howlzer snickered at this "or that."

Rhinowhitz chuckled "you watch too many of those detective shows. You know as well as I do that they exaggerate many things for ratings. Like MacCougar, MythBreakers showed that most of the things on that show are just too ridiculous to work."

The two enjoyed a laugh at this just as they arrived at the home. They got out of the cruiser and looked the house over

Rhinowhitz nodded "nice place. Too bad it's too small for me."

Howlzer nodded "well not all houses are meant for all mammals."

The two walked towards the house though they noticed something odd with the neighborhood. There weren't any mammals around. No one out in the yard, going to their car, or grabbing the paper. In fact, they saw that several houses had several days worth of papers in the mail slots or on the lawn.

This unsettled them as it was also unnaturally quiet but immediately they knew something was wrong as they saw that the front door of the house they were going to was ajar with the door handle ripped off

The two pulled out their tranquilizer gun and Howlzer looked to his partner knowing what they needed to do.

Rhinowhitz would have to wait outside keeping an eye out while Howlzer moved inside.

Howlzer had to go in with a slight crouch since the house was made for smaller animals but he was still able to go in. immediately his nose was bombarded with the smell of blood and decay. 'Damn it. Something died in here.' he would have called out but the sell was fresh so whatever killed, might still be in here. He already assumed that Cynthia was dead since this was her home and the house was filled with the foul stench. He followed his nose to where the smell was coming from and saw that it was coming from upstairs. Grabbing his radio, he gently pressed the call button and whispered "Rhinowhitz, call backup and an ambulance. I don't know if the assailant is still here but a stretcher is going to be needed and a forensics team to find whatever happened here, over." he began to make his way up slowly as he knew that Rhinowhitz would be heading back to the cruiser to call dispatch. He made it to the top of the stairs when his radio went off

{Howlzer, get out here, now.}

The sudden noise caused him to jump a bit before he grabbed his radio and whispered back "what is it?"

{get out of there now!}

It was then that Howlzer's sharp hearing herald his partner's shouting outside

"Freeze! I said, Freeze!"

Howlzer looked back down the stairs and was about to move until he heard a moan coming from a room down the hall. Right where the scent of death was strongest. He was about to investigate when his radio went off again

{Get out of there!}

This sudden shout from his radio alerted whoever was in the room and soon the door burst open for Howlzer to see that it was a bloodied Bobcat that he assumed was Cynthia Patters but the most alarming thing he noticed was that a large chunk of the side of her torso was missing. He was about to go into his police role and try and get her medical attention but he had to jump back as the bobcat lunged at him attempting to bite him. "What the hell!?" he swerved around the female and bolted down the stairs and towards the front door. However, as he got to it, he turned to see the bloodied animal jump after him. He brought his arm up and under her neck, keeping her at bay as he turned his head to the side so as to avoid the biting the cat was doing. "Get off!" he tried to get the mammal off but with all the flailing, he couldn't get a good grasp. Suddenly the bobcat was hit in the face and sent flying. Howlzer looked up to see his partner at the door before he was grabbed by the shirt and was dragged outside. "Thanks for the save."

"Don't thank me yet!" he threw the wolf over his shoulder and ran towards the cruiser.

Although shaken by the action, he was still able to look around and saw what his partner was shouting at. Mammals were walking towards them, but they seemed to be in the same condition as the bobcat. "What the…?!"

"That's why I told you to get out of there!" Rhinowhitz all but threw his partner inside the cruiser as he got into the driver's seat, turned the car on, and drove away.

Howlzer straightened himself and grasped the door handle to stabilize himself as his partner was driving frantically. "What the hell is going on?"

Rhinowhitz answered as he saw that more and more mammals were coming out of nowhere and it seemed the whole neighborhood was like this. "Your guess is as good as mine!" he tried his best to avoid running into any of them as he grabbed the radio "Dispatch, this is Officer Rhinowhitz with Officer Howlzer! We were just attacked by a horde of mammals that looked to be eviscerated by something! Tranqs don't work on them as I put four darts in one Koala!"

Howlzer was surprised to hear this "that's enough to put an Elephant into a coma or kill 'em!"

{This is dispatch, say again!}

"Something happened to all the mammals on the street of Paddaworth between Santonio and Bearward!"

Howlzer looked ahead and screamed, "look out!"

Rhinowhitz looked to the right to see one of them running towards the road and would be hit if he didn't swerve the car to the side. Fortunately, he was able to keep the car from losing control and drove away with mammals chasing the car. He spoke again into the radio "we are returning to the precinct. We are unequipped for whatever this is!"

Howlzer was about to say something until he saw a paw dangling down the driver's door window. "Rhinowhitz!"

The rhino turned his head to his partner before something dropped on the windshield and spooked him. "Holy!" The sudden start caused him to lose control of the car as it swerved. The vehicle crashed into a parked van, sending the extra passenger flying off the car.

Howlzer smashed his head on the dashboard since he still did not have a seatbelt.

Rhinowhitz's horn broke through the window and caused him a slight headache.

Both were dazed from the crash and tried to get the stars out of their vision.

Howlzer, however, was even more out of it as he was bleeding from his head from smashing his head on the dashboard. He opened his eyes and he was seeing three of everything and his ears were ringing.

Rhinowhitz, being tougher was able to shake off the spots but his hearing was ringing as well but not enough that he didn't hear the screaming from others. He looked to the street to see a mammal biting a Hyena in the neck. "What the…?" He got out of the crashed cruiser and pulled out his tranq gun and pointed at the mammal which he could now see was a Pig. "Off the hyena!" he saw that the pig continued to bite into the female hyena before he shit at the pig's back. He grew frustrated that the darts weren't doing anything so he ran up, grabbed the back of the pig's shirt, and threw him off. He looked down at the hyena to see that she was convulsing and going into shock. "Crap!" he was going to kneel down to try and help but heard a growl coming from where he threw the pig. He turned his head to see the pig getting back up. Now that he got a look at it, he saw that not only was the pig bloodied from what he just did but he wasn't moving like the Nighthowler victims. It was more like the pig had had way too much alcohol and couldn't stand up fully straight.

The screaming around them was heard and the pig snapped his head to the nearest one that screamed which was a horse that came out of his car to see what was going on. The pig lunged at the horse and bit him in the arm.

"Argh get off!" The horse swung his arm around and was fortunate to send the pig flying. In a panic, he got back into his car and drove away.

Howlzer finally got out of the cruiser and wobbled over to Rhinowhitz. Seeing all that happened he shouted out to the rest of the mammals that stuck around to either see what was going on or film it on their phones. "EVACUATE THE AREA! Leave! NOW!"

This snapped everyone out of their curiosity and they began to scatter out of the area.

Rhinowhitz saw the pig begin to run towards some of the civilians and chose that this had gone on long enough. The hyena had already died due to hemorrhaging. He charged the pig and despite the size difference, he lowered himself enough to hit the pig in the side and send him flying into a wall.

Howlzer flinched as he heard something crack from the impact. He got up and walked over to Rhinowhitz who was breathing heavily "you ok?"

"I will be." he reached for his belt and pulled out a dart meant for his tranq gun. He looked it over to see that there was nothing wrong with it. He turned to his partner and lowered the dart to Howlzer "do you smell anything wrong with this?"

Howlzer was confused with this but took a few whiffs of it and could tell that it is a fresh dart. "Nothing wrong that I can smell. Why?"

"I shot one into the pig's back and it was like he didn't even feel it." he then thought about the horse that was attacked earlier "one of the civilians was injured. We are going to have to find out who it is and make sure that he gets medical attention."

Howlzer nodded and was about to use his radio to call dispatch but he froze when he heard a moan coming from the hyena.

Both officers looked towards the body and went wide-eyed when they saw that the corpse just sit up and turned to look at them.

They both noticed the dead look in her eyes and began to panic as she got up and made her way towards them.

"She was dead right?"

"From the large chunk missing in her neck, she should be!"

The hyena lunged at the officers, mouth wide open, ready to bite

~Precinct 1~

Clawhauser was getting call after call of mammals attacking others in random areas of Zootopia. All of them talking about them being immune to the tranq darts no matter how many the officers said they put into them. Rhinowhitz's call was just the first and it seemed to snowball more and more. He pressed the intercom and called the chief "Sir, we have a situation!" Suddenly the front door burst open and in ran Fangmeyer and Wolford. "What's going on, you two?"

Fangmeyer ignored the cheetah and made her way down a hallway with everyone in the lobby watching her in confusion

Wolford stopped at the front desk and pressed the intercom to call Bogo. "Chief, we have a situation! Get down here, now!" he didn't even wait for a response as he grabbed the mic and was about to call out to the other officers until he heard Bogo

"WOLFORD!"

The shout had caused everyone to stop dead in their tracks as they felt that hell was about to fall upon the unfortunate wolf

Bogo made his way to the front desk, nostrils flaring as he gave a hard look to his officer

"Give me one good reason why I shouldn't take your badge and throw you to the streets for insubordination!"

Wolford was about to respond when he heard Fangmeyer call out to him

"Wolford!"

Everyone in the lobby turned to see Fangmeyer walking in with live arms in her grasp.

She grabbed a pump-action shotgun made for mammals his size and tossed it to him. She made it to the front desk and put down several packets of ammunition for several size weapons.

Wolford reached into a box and began loading some shells into his gun.

Bogo was gobsmacked at this "what are you two doing? You don't have the authorization to use lethal firearms!" he was stopped from saying anything else when a sidearm was shoved into his face, barrel facing away from him.

Wolfard was holding the barrel as he offered the chief the gun "sir, from all the years I have worked on the force, trust me when I say that we need to use lethal force for this."

Bogo was dumbfounded at this as he heard the loading of a gun and turned his head to see Fangmeyer finish loading a sniper rifle and aimed it at the front entrance. He looked back to Wolford and took the gun "what's going on?"

Wolford sighed as he spoke in exasperation "it's like Zootopia has become the city of 'Day of the living carcass'! We were on patrol when we saw it happen and we had no idea what the hell was going on. Mammals taking out chunks of others and then the one that should be dead just get back up and attack others. We told everyone to evacuate the area but we had no means of stopping them since our darts did squat."

Bogo was now considering calling the mammals in white coats for his officers since it was clear that all the time on the force had taken a hit to their minds. "Do you honestly want me to believe that you had a run-in with the living dead?!"

"Sir."

Bogo looked to Fangmeyer who was still aiming at the entrance

"You're going to see the truth soon enough."

Clawhauser was pressing his paws over his mouth in shock at the whole thing until he looked to Bogo "uh, sir. I have been receiving calls from everyone saying similar things happening in several different areas. Rainforest District, Nocturnal Ranges, Meadow Lands…."

Bogo pinched the bridge of his nose. 'I don't need everyone to start losing it.'

"Here they come."

Bogo was now having none of this as he grabbed Wolford by the back of his shirt and lifted him up "now look, whatever you two are up to…"

*BANG*

Everyone in the lobby pulled out their tranqs and aimed it at Fangmeyer who had just let out a shot

"Drop the gun!"

"Hands up!"

Bogo was now furious and made his way to the tigress

Fangmeyer kept her gaze on the scope and shouted out "why don't you all look outside and see what we are talking about!"

Bogo shifted his gaze to the front entrance and saw beyond the glass entrance a group of mammals making their way towards them. His eyes widened when he saw some of their states.

Missing arms, chunks missing in torsos and a few have chunks missing from their jaws. Another odd thing was that there were prey and predators. "What the…?"

Every mammal looked outside and were in the same boat as the chief

*BANG*

Fengmeyer loaded another round "believe us now!?" before firing again.

Wolford was dropped to the ground and grabbed the box of ammo before moving closer to the entrance, dropped to a knee, and began to fire off one by one of the oncoming dead. "Darts don't do jack. Lethal force is needed!"

Bogo shook his head and got into a commanding role "LETHAL FORCE AUTHORIZED! GO LOAD UP!"

Every mammal ran to where they kept the guns, scrambling to get the ones right for their size and some putting on tactical armor as fast as they could.

Wolford was curious why none of the undead were chagrin but he wasn't going to fix it by saying it out loud. He was just thankful that they weren't. He had to stop and load his gun once again and was thankful that a few more officers came to stand with him and began opening fire.

Bogo moved forward to join his men as they took down wave after wave of them. Unfortunately despite how well they aimed and how many they took down, there seemed to be no end to them. Not only that but they were getting closer.

*bang bang*

Bogo heard more shots but not from the men beside him. They were coming from inside the precinct. Turning his head he saw that a few mammals were running out of the hallway where they kept the firearms and shooting down the hall.

An antelope called out "sir, they're coming through the windows!"

Bogo went wide-eyed at this as he shifted his gaze from the hallway to the horde in front of them. "Fall back, everyone! Head to the parking lot and get into the swat trucks now!" he saw several break off from the line they had until it was just Wolford and him who had switched to the small sidearm "you too, Wolford!"

Wolford looked up at the chief before getting up and moving towards the lot.

Bogo finished his clip and decided it was time to go

Fangmeyer lowered her gun and was about to go but paused and grabbed the chubby cheetah "come on, Ben!"

Bogo waited for the two to run past him until he looked back to the front desk. His eyes landed on the mic and knew he needed to send out a warning. Seeing the undead piling through the entrance, he ran back to the front desk and pressed the call button, and sent out a message to all officers still out there "All Officers, we have a code red throughout all of Zootopia! Attacks from mangled mammals reported in the Rainforest District, Nocturnal Range, Meadow land! Unsure if other districts have been hit! Lethal force is authorized, do not allow any of them to continue! Do not return to the Precinct! Precinct 1 has been compromised! Repeat! Precinct 1 has been compromised!" He saw that he was close to being surrounded but there was still an opening to the hall that led to the parking lot. He ran towards it, lowering his head and used his horn to knock one away, and made his way to join his men.

~meanwhile~

The horse that was bitten, was driving through Savannah central but he couldn't focus as his vision was becoming blurry. He was still in a panic as he drove as he remembered about the bite. His arm pulsed in pain and seemed that every time it did, his vision became far more blurry. In fact, his thoughts became muddled and it started to feel like he had taken one too many, after drinking the amount that could kill an elephant. As he tried to focus on where his car was going, he saw the colors of black and white in his way.

He was unaware that he was swerving left and right, causing all the mammals to scream and jump out of the way with a few being hit by his car.

He soon lost consciousness as his hoof pressed harder on the accelerator.

Nick turned to Judy and was about to tell her that they had become the godparents of the Otter pups and the new pup on the way. He tried his best to hide the happy smile that the news brought him as he opened his mouth to tell her but stopped when he saw a car that was driving out of control. And right towards them from Judy's side. His mind went into overdrive as he realized that the speed of the car and where it might end up would no doubt kill Judy, instantly. He couldn't allow that to happen so his body moved on its own. He unbuckled himself, jumped towards her, wrapped his arms around her, and pressed his foot on hers as it was over the accelerator. The action caused the cruiser to jerk forward and he prayed to God that they would live through this.

Judy was surprised by the sudden action of her partner but she didn't have time to think about it since the cruiser jolted forward until

*CRASH*

The speeding car slammed into the backside of the cruiser and such a speed that sent the police vehicle spinning.

Nick lost his grip on Judy and was suddenly flung from where he was and there was suddenly the sound of shattering, blood, immense pain in his back, and the feeling of weightlessness.

Nick was sent flying from the front window of the car until he slammed into the wall of an alley, fell to the ground, rolled under a dumpster. His head had hit the wall hard and he soon found himself unconscious.

Judy felt something wet drip down her forehead and she slowly brought her paw up to wipe it away. She slowly opened her eyes to see that her paw was now red. She groaned as she picked up her head, which was leaning on the wheel before looking to the passenger seat. But she couldn't see her partner. "ugh….Ni...ck….?" her head was spinning as she tried to think about what happened. She wiggled herself free of the seatbelt and stumbled out of the cruiser. She looked at it and saw that a car had slammed into the back of it. She looked around to see if she could see her partner anywhere "Nick….?" Screams could be heard and Judy turned to where it came from and tilted her head with droopy eyes at what she saw.

A horse was biting into a lioness.

Judy's mind was still in a haze as she saw this so she could only think that she was seeing things. But as she stood there watching, her vision and mind began to clear up and soon she realized that what she was seeing wasn't a hallucination but an actual scene. Once her sight became clear she saw that not only was the lioness being attacked, there were a few other animals that had been attacked. Prey and predator alike. She reached for her belt and pulled out her tranq gun. "ZPD hooves where I can see them!"

The Horse stopped munching on the lioness's stomach and slowly turned his head to where the sound came from. Dangling from his mouth was the lioness's intestine.

Judy felt sick seeing that as it was just so unnatural but she stood firm "hooves up!" she watched as the horse stood up and began to amble his way towards her. "Stop right there!" as she looked up at him, she noticed that some of the other bodies on the ground began to move. Her eyes widened as she saw what she assumed to be carcasses were now getting up and moving just like the horse towards her. She took a step back as the group grew closer. "Last warning!" they kept coming and she sent a shot at the horse who was closest but to her shock, he didn't drop. She reached to pull out another dart from her belt but she felt that they were all shattered. She sternly looked around and saw some of the bodies remained dead. That was when something clicked in her head 'where's nick?' She looked at all the bodies on the ground and was thankful to not see any orange fur. She was brought out of her thoughts as she jumped out of the way of a hedgehog attempting to bite her. Once she landed she winced as a sharp pain went up her leg. She looked down to see a metal shard was sticking out of her thigh. Thankfully it was in a spot that didn't hinder her that much. She began to move away from the crazed mammals as she had no tranqs and her leg was in no condition for her to fight back. Not only that, she didn't know where her partner was. "Nick?"

*moan*

"Nick!?"

More mammals showed up and moved the same as the horse

"Nick! Where are you?!"

She saw that they were surrounding her

"NICK!"

They all lunged at her

Judy was able to jump back and out of their range. She didn't want to do what she was about to do. It was against policy, it wasn't in her nature, and her heart was telling her not to "Nick! If you can hear me, head to the Precinct! Ah!" another mammal fell at her feet and tried to bite her leg. She was close to being unable to escape so she turned around and began to run away with a limp "Head towards the precinct!" she didn't want to leave her partner behind. She didn't know where he was or what happened but she prayed that he was alright. She cried as she felt an ache in her heart 'please be safe, Nick!'

She ran away just as the cruiser's radio began to give off a gabled message from Bogo. Unfortunately, she did not get a chance to hear it as she was too busy getting away from the undead mammals

The first thing that Nick's mind registered was the amount of pain his body was in. "argh! Please tell me someone got the number of the train that hit me." he thought about what he could tell by his senses. He knew that he was laying on his stomach and a foul stench was burning his nostrils. It smelt of garbage, old food, and blood. He figured the blood was his since he felt some liquid matting his fur. He stayed there with his eyes closed for a few more minutes until he heard some moaning. He slowly opened his eyes and the first thing he saw…..was a wall. He was confused to see a brick wall in front of him till he noticed that he was under something. He groaned as he shifted his head to look toward the street and his confusion grew as he saw mammals eating other mammals. 'Must have fallen asleep watching that zombie movie. What was the name? Dawn of the carcass? Yeah, that was it.'

He was brought out of his thoughts when he tried to get up but felt a sharp pain run over his entire back. "Argh!" he froze as he realized that this wasn't a dream if he could feel pain and some of the mammals eating other mammals stopped for a second. He laid there for minutes until they began to eat again. He ran his mind through several things to make sure that what he was seeing was real. 'Ok, I'm watching a mammal eat another mammal like a damn zombie, I'm lying under something in what I think is an alley, and I'm in pain which means that this isn't a dream. My sight is fully clear if I don't move so what I am seeing isn't a hallucination and I think I'm thinking clearly. Let me check… Judy's tail is cute…..yep, I'm thinking clearly. Which begs the question….what the hell?!' Once he realized that what he was seeing was real, he felt the lunch he had with the Ottertons was coming up. It was then that the things that happened before he was knocked out came to mind. His time spent with the Ottertons, the news they gave him, the crash…. 'Judy!'

He looked and was able to clearly see the cruiser and the open driver door. He began to panic at the sight but his rational mind analyzed what he could see. The door was amazingly still intact from the crash and there were no signs of blood to say that one of the undead 'god I can believe I'm even thinking this' had opened it. No sign of grey fur but he can't see the whole scene. 'Ok can I move?' he shifted his body and it was excruciating. He groaned in his mind 'yep...I can, but not well.' he needed to go. It was then that something else came to mind as he thought about the earlier events. 'The Ottertons!' he had seen enough movies to know that something like this spreads and they weren't that far away from the tunnel that led to the Rainforest district.

He reached down to his pocket and immediately knew that his phone was in pieces. 'Of friggin course.' he thought about what he should do right now. He didn't want to just stay here under whatever he was under until something happens. So he slowly moved in the opposite direction of the street until he was out from what he was under. Gritting his teeth he got to his feet and leaned on the dumpster. 'So that's what I was under.' he was glad that he wasn't visible to the undead on the street as he thought about what to do. 'Ok, Carrots is a smart bunny so she wouldn't be caught that easily. How would she react to the sight of zombies? Run away I hope. Kickass bunny she may be but physical contact with such a thing would be ill-advised.' he thought about his partner and hoped that she got away. He then began to make his way deeper into the alley to avoid the street. 'I'm a dumb fox. Here I am without my partner, zombies are real, I'm in pain and I'm about to go on a rescue mission. What would Carrots think about this?'

"I'm proud of you Nick."

Nick smiled at the thought. 'Yeah she would do the same thing' he began to make his way back towards the rainforest district with one thought in mind 'please be safe Judy, Olivia...'

End of chapter

So yeah it's a zombie Fic. I kind of hinted at it at the start of the last chapter. Really hope this doesn't chase away some of you readers. I kind of got the idea from reading another Zombie Zootopia Fic but it was much more light-hearted

There are some references to Resident evil in this fic. Which brings up a thought I had for this fic. I was thinking that I could make this a crossover between Zootopia and Resident evil. Odd yes but I don't think it has been done before. And think of a tiger licker. Anyway, I doubt I will make this a crossover between the series but the idea is in my head. But who knows maybe you readers want a crossover between the two

Rhinowhitz is an actual character in the Zootopia universe. Howlzer is an OC I made up for this.

Also, I made Fangmeyer female since there is no solid idea on gender for that tiger

After some thought, I will be going back to the previous chapter and switching Mrs. Otterton's name from Natasha to Olivia. Olivia just sounds better in my opinion.

Flames will be ignored.
