Clawhauser: Previously on Zoomorphia, Judy and Nick made a huge discovery! Bolt the silver chrome wolf is in fact a robot!... Doing a recap sequence alone is kinda awkward-

Bolt: I'll gladly lend you a paw~

Clawhauser: Jeepers! Who are you?

Bolt: It's me, Bolt the silver wolf~

Clawhauser: But you're white!... It came out wrong.

Bolt: Oh, this white fur? It's a part of my disguise. Anyway, I tricked a Savage dealer to fall into my trap. I'm so close to capturing her but Hybrid butted in; thus, I ended up killing her instead. And since those two insisted on arresting me..., we got into a fight. Frankly, I wasn't hurt when they teleport-attacked around but boy, it sure made me dizzy.

Clawhauser: Wow!

Bolt: Hey Cheeto Puff! It was very rude of you calling me like that. I find that racist!

Clawhauser: I'm sorry! I didn't mean to call you wh-

Bolt: No! Not that! I meant when you refered to me as a 'robot'.

Clawhauser: Eh? What you really are then?

Bolt: Well, technically, I am an android, I guess.

Clawhauser: Isn't android a robot looking like a huma-

Bolt: Cut! Cut! We're not supposed to say the species that never existed.

Clawhauser: Oops, my bad, err, chapter 14!

In the morning at the Zootopia Police Department,

"So, Hopps takes sick leave today?" Chief Bogo the Cape Buffalo was talking in front of the briefing room, laying eyes on his fox officer, who was wearing light green Hawaiian shirt, dark indigo necktie with red-and-blue stripes and khaki pants instead of his police uniform.

"That's correct~ In fact, she must be sleeping like a log on her bed as we're speaking." Nick Wilde the red fox replied his superior in a joking tone.

Clawhauser the cheetah and several other officers were standing around. He could not help but notice a slightly swollen stomach of his normally slender fox friend.

"What's with the...?" He pointed at Nick's belly, trying not to offend him since the chubby cheetah like himself might have no right to criticize someone else's weight.

"This?" Nick pulled the front of his Hawaiian shirt forward a bit. "Honestly, I'm feeling a little under weather today, so I'd like to also take sick leave~" He relinquished his grip.

Clawhauser supposed that Nick misunderstood him referring to his casual shirt.

"More like taking leave to look after Hopps~" Officer Higgins the hippopotamus poked fun at Nick while others laughed. The smirking fox then gave him a shrug.

"Noted, but just so you know, we're handling lots of work right now. Make sure you come back soon, okay?" Bogo accepted their requests.

"Yes, sir! Thank you, sir~" Nick gave a mock salute.

"The rest of you get in there already. Roll call gonna start soon." Bogo pointed his thumb to the briefing room's door.

Other officers entered the room as they were told, except for Clawhauser. He stared at Nick leaving the station, having an inkling of his action.

As soon as the fox stepped out the door, his smirk turning to a frown, he clutched his growling stomach and covered his drooling mouth.

Ever since the most recent battle with Bolt the silver wolf, Nick had been feeling starving.

His hunger was driving him insane although he had eaten everything in sight. He even cleared out the fridge in his apartment by himself on previous night, which should make him full, but still starvation was haunting him.

His stomach was rumbling as his mouth was watering.

The more he thought of his dear bunny friend, Judy, the hungrier he got. That scared him a lot.

Nick then decided to head out to downtown.

.-. .-. .. -. -.-. .. .-. .- .-.. / .- .-. .-. . - .. - . …

"Open up wide" Mittens, sitting on a table inside a motorhome, asked Bolt.

"Aaa" The shirtless alaskan tundra wolf, seated on an oversized couch, opened his mouth wide.

"Pink tongue, salmon pink gums, you look pretty healthy, Not!" The thin black wildcat slapped him with a giant paper fan.

On the surface, inside his mouth looked pretty normal. However, what appearing to be his tongue, his teeth and his gums were in fact engineered devices to imitate real organs.

"Stop fooling around!" She poked Bolt's chin with the fan to shut his mouth. "Open up! For real this time" She subsequently drew it back.

Bolt, pleased to tease Mittens, brushed the white fur on his chest, revealing a zipper in center of chest, and unfastened the zipper.

As he was pulling open the fake skin across his chest cavity, she checked his insides which were mechanisms and an running engine.

"Cooling fans seem working fine." She said while looking at two spinning small fans in left and right side chest. She then focused at the engine in the middle by paying attention to its noise, multiple small cylinders running like a heart beating fast. "Engine runs properly. Nothing to worry about~"

When Bolt zipped up his chest, "On second thought, I'd better check the switch lever in your right arm." Mittens jumped to the right of him.

"That's enough." Bored of body check-up, he hopped off the couch, leaving the wildcat sighing.

"I've been wondering. Whose guitar is that?" He headed for a guitar leaning against a built in chest of drawers.

"It belongs to professor." Rhino the tan lemming in a T-shirt tucked into jeans said. He was lying lazily in a pillow on the other couch opposite to the one Mittens was standing on. This pillow clearly was way bigger than him.

"Has he ever played it?" Bolt questioned.

"No idea. It has always been placed there. It's more like a furniture by now." Rhino rolled over to lie on his belly.

"Where is he anyway?" Bolt picked the guitar up. Its size was slightly small for a 6-feet wolf but he could go with it.

"Going out to run errands as al-..." While Rhino was answering, he along with Mittens was astonished by Bolt, who had never laid his paws on any instruments before ever since both the lemming and the wildcat first met the wolf, tuning guitar strings skillfully.

"...-ways..." Rhino eventually finished his sentence before Bolt started play guitar.

Played melodies called lyrics to his friends' minds.

When you wish upon a star

Makes no difference who you are

Anything your heart desires will come to you

"Guys, did you install music software or something into me?"

"No" Mittens and Rhino answered Bolt in unison.

Even Bolt seemed surprised by his skill. He recalled no playing-an-instrument stuff within his one-year memory, unable to remember anything prior. However, all the musical knowledge came into his head.

.. ... / ... . / .- ..- ... - / - .- -.-. ... .. -. .

Clawhauser, not having an afternoon shift on that day, strolled around downtown in a jungle green polo shirt and a pair of cello trousers. He intended to visit Judy after he found a right gift for her.

Afterwards, he stopped in front of an all-you-can-eat restaurant where he used to eat. Just thinking about seafood, fried chickens, roasted crickets and pizzas which they served made his mouth water.

"No! Benjamin Clawhauser! Focus on looking for a gift for Judy." Suppressing his own increased appetite, Clawhauser walked away from the restaurant.

While passing the mouth of the close by alley, he heard a noise of someone throwing up inside the alley. He turned to see the red fox with the dark auburn tip of the tail wearing the familiar light green Hawaiian shirt.

"Nick!?" Clawhauser rushed to his friend who apparently threw up into a trash can.

Nick wiped his mouth with the back of the right paw before turning to meet Clawhauser's eye. "Oh hi bud, sorry for unpleasant sight" He did not look so good.

"What happens? Food poisoning?" The cheetah fidgeted.

"Just overeating" The quite bloated fox stepped back from the trash can staggeringly.

Clawhauser moved hastily to hold Nick's shoulder, scared of him tripping over. "Let me take you to your apartment." The cheetah gave the fox assistance to stand steadily.

"My place is too far away." Nick was suffering from nausea. His stomach was really uncomfortable.

"I gonna call Judy." Clawhauser brought out his phone, intending to call her for help since she was Nick's partner and they two were really close.

"Don't!... Not her… Please" Nick clung to Clawhauser's shirt.

The cheetah felt at a loss. "What should we do?"

"I got an idea." Pulling his phone out, Nick made a phone call.

A little longer than a few minutes later,

After hearing knocks on the door, "Coming! Man, you should give me a heads up earlier than that. It's not like I would prepare my room-" The small fennec fox with bold voice went to open his apartment door.

"-but I need to prepare my mind to handle a guest-... Who's this guy?" He was surprised to see a plump spotted big cat helping the familiar red fox stay upright at his front door, "And have you gained some weight?" even more surprised to see his former partner-in-crime looking rounder than usual.

"Sorry to bother you, pal." Nick came into the room while Clawhauser had to bow his head to avoid his head hitting the room's ceiling.

The apartment where Finnick the fennec fox, Nick Wilde's former partner-in-crime, lived was supposed to be for medium-to-large mammal customers.

However, the particular room which the large-eared sandy fennec fox stayed is in an attic and it has a low ceiling, too low for apartment's regular customers.

"Benjamin Clawhauser, nice to meet you." The cheetah bent down and offered his right paw to the way smaller mammal.

"Call me Finnick. Bet you are Wilde's co-worker, huh?" He shook paws with Clawhauser, who then made an shocked expression, which "Why the… face?" confused the fennec fox.

"O-oh sorry. My bad." Clawhauser apologized, "I didn't expect you'd have such a… distinctive voice." drawing his paw back.

"You're not the first person to tell me that."

"Your place is..." Clawhauser could not help but think that the room was too cramped.

"Small?" Finnick placed his paw on the top of his head and then raised his paw up, implying that the room had plenty of space for a small guy such as him.

"I didn't mean to offend you! I just thought this apartment is for large mammals since I found some wandering around on the first floor."

"You're not wrong. This place is actually for big guys but this room ceiling is too low, so I haggled my way to cheap rent." Finnick said proudly.

Clawhauser only nodded with a puzzled face in response.

"But still, cuz the doorknob was a little too high, I moved it down."

The cheetah recalled when he along with Nick arrived at the door, he noted that the doorknob was strangely low.

"At least you don't have to worry about upstairs neighbors." Clawhauser mentioned a positive aspect in a hesitating voice.

"Heck yeah~ Make yourself at home. That fox already did." Finnick pointed at Nick heading to a fridge.

"Have something to eat?" Nick asked, opening the fridge.

"Chilled pizza. Want me to... heat it up?" Finnick goggled at the red fox's sticking out belly.

"I don't think he can eat anymore. He's just-" Clawhauser was going to tell Finnick about what happened with Nick but he was then interrupted by the sound of ripping cardboard.

Evidently, Nick got his paws on the chilled silkworm pupa pizza, claws tearing the packaging box apart. "Don't bother" He began to guzzle the cold yeasted flatbread with dry tasteless tomato sauce and cheese. In addition to that, its crust looked so tough it must to chew, yet Nick munched it vigorously.

The way he acted indeed scared his friends.

Despite feeling stuffed, Nick was… "I'm little hungry."... suffering from a ravenous appetite.

Soon after he finished the pizza, he, wobbling drowsily, was slipping into a food coma.

Both Clawhauser and Finnick hurried to help Nick, checking on him.

"Go ahead and take him to my sofa." Finnick said.

Since the roomer gave the permission, the cheetah took the bellied-out red fox to a sectional sofa, laying him on the long seating part. During the time, the fennec fox distanced himself from others before sending a text message.

Nick spent quite some time lying on the sofa with his arm across his forehead. No matter how uncomfortable he felt or how taut his stomach was, his hunger did not lessen in the slightest. On the contrary, it rose whenever he thought of Judy, her face, her voice, her soft fur, her warm personality, et cetera, including her scent.

He missed her fragrant lavender scent. The more he thought about it, the stronger it became as if it was really there.

He could smell her scent growing clearer.

His ears perked up when there were loud and continuous knocks on the room door. Finnick went to open the door quickly.

"Nick!"

Nick heard a sharp bawl from a doe rabbit; hence, he raised his head, propping himself up on one elbow, to look past his bloated stomach. He saw his friend and partner, Judy Hopps the gray doe in her casual outfit holding a paper bag, at the doorway.

"Judy?" Stunned, he could not believe his eyes. She was really in his sight. Clawhauser was also surprised what brought her here. In truth, Finnick reached out to her secretly.

"Oh Nick, are you hurt?" Judy, looking so worried, approached Nick hastily.

Nick had not recovered from the abnormal hungriness. He did not know what he should do. He felt scared as she was just a few inches away.

Don't come near me Judy. Please! Nick was screaming internally. If you get any closer, I'm gonna…

Suddenly, Nick stretched his arms out and caught Judy. Seeing that, Clawhauser, remembering that Nick told him not to call her, interpreted that Nick might lose control of himself and harm her; therefore, he was about to help Judy.

However, Finnick stopped him, wondering why the fennec fox was holding him back but that allowed the cheetah to look what was actually happening.

Nick pulled Judy close, hugging her firmly and fondly on the sofa. Next, he shoved his snout into the fur on her head between her ears.

"Are you feeling okay now?" Nick asked tenderly.

"M-mhm" Despite being puzzled, Judy accepted his hug, dropping the bag in her paw to the floor, and hugged him in return.

"What a relief" He breathed in the bunny's lavender scent. After many hours of fear and anxiety, he finally calmed down, feeling peace of mind.

Judy stayed in Nick's embrace for a while before breaking apart from the hug. "My parents sent me a pie made with blueberries from our farm." She bent downwards from the sofa to pick a pie box in the paper bag up.

"It may be messed up a little bit. That's the postal service for you~" She laughed off, shifting her eyes around.

"Want some?" Opening the box, she presented a blueberry pie to the fox in front of her. Its top crust had cracks here and there but overall, the pie still looked delicious.

"I'd love to, Carrots, but one more bite, I'll probably burst." Nick poked his own distended belly.

"I'll make sure I will save you slices. Benjamin! Finnick! Have some!" Judy called others two.

Everybody gathered at the sofa. The bunny, the cheetah and the fennec fox were sharing some slices of the pie. When the fox saw that the blueberry pie stained on the cheek of his rabbit friend, he "On second thought, one bite won't hurt." spoke to her.

She giggled, "Glutton fox, I knew you can't pass on blueberry." about to feed him a small dessert bite with a fork.

All of a sudden, Judy was licked on her cheek by Nick. His wet tongue touched her stained cheek fur. The startled doe could feel tingling sensation from her face running through all over her body.

Startled as well, the tod budged away "I'm sorry! I have no idea what came over me." and apologized.

Meanwhile, Clawhauser did not appear less astounded than the duo. On the other hand, Finnick just seemed amused.

"It's..." The blushing bunny raised one paw to her face, "It's not a problem." not wiping her cheek, just touching the spot Nick licked.

Both stared each other as if they were frozen to the spot. As for Clawhauser, he merely sat still, gazing Nick and Judy back and forth.

Out of the blue, a phone dinging sound broke the silence, frightening the police officers in civilian clothing.

Finnick brought his smartphone out of the trouser side pocket to check a recent notification. "Savages are in the nearby area."

Due to existence of Savages the monsters, an application was launched by a government agency to install for free. The app served a purpose of warning about the appearance of Savages in neighboring areas.

"Got it." Judy jumped down the sofa and charged to the door.

"I don't think I can go. My tummy's heavy." Nick said, staying on the sofa as before.

"Good luck, Judy!" Clawhauser wished her well.

She waved her paw goodbye while leaving the room.

.-.. ..- ... - / .- -. -.. / ... ..- -. -. . .-.

"Those are normal Savages, aren't they?" Rhino quizzed.

In the motorhome, he and Mittens were viewing live CCTV camera footage which she hacked, while Bolt was observing the Savages from a rooftop of one building in Zootopia's downtown.

A large long purplish-pink horned sturdy purple bovine monster, covering in exoskeleton with the same color as the horns, and a pair of winged small purple mice were running wild on the street as the fully geared SCU agents tried to taking control of the situation, escorting mammals in the area to a safe place.

These monsters were clearly far from looking normal but what Rhino meant by 'normal' was they likely were not among those peculiar monsters following commands or being for sale.

Bolt turned to look down on the ground. "There she comes~" He spotted Judy Hopps from the distance.

"Bolt, stand by." Mittens communicated with him through their private wireless communication system.

After that, the wolf rolled up his right jacket sleeve and brush fur on underside of his forearm, going to transform in order to be ready to assist Hybrid. A few seconds later, he still remained in his alaskan tundra wolf disguise.

"What's wrong?" Mittens asked, questioning why he had not transformed yet.

"My zipper got stuck." Bolt struggled to pull his zipper as it was stuck like he said. Since the zipper would not open, he was unable to pull the lever switch to on. In the other word, he could not transform at that time.

"I don't wanna say i told you so but i told you so." Mittens caused Bolt to remember when he refused her to check his arm.

"Let Hybrid go it alone today." Bolt decided to take a back seat, being only an observer.

At the same time, some of the SCU agents on the ground were dealing with the bull Savage. A burst of bullets peppered it but many bullets deflected off its exoskeleton.

"The cover of this one is too tough!" Wolford the timber wolf agent, ex-police officer, yelled while firing an automatic rifle at the monster.

Meanwhile, several agents, sticking together, swung their long-barrelled firearms like baseball bats to ward off the two swooping winged mice. They would not dare shoot bullets up, afraid of accidentally injuring mammals on the buildings.

"Keep them busy!" Maximus the white stallion gave a command to his subordinates as he and some other agents were occupied with a task of guarding citizens.

At that point in time, hiding behind a corner of a building, "Ready?" Judy talked to her phone, wearing her transformation belt, MidniDriver.

"Hang on" Nick on the other end of the phone line put his transformation device on. Its belt automatically wrapped around his expanded waistline so tight that he "Oof" felt a sharp pain in his stomach faintly. He then proceeded to the next step, pulling the silver syringe on the left of his device. "DRAW BLOOD"

When blood of the fox was teleported to Judy's syringe, she pushed it "INJECT" before announcing "Transform". Not hesitantly, she twisted back the handle sticking out on the right of her device. "IGNITE"

With Nick's mind transferred into Judy's body, the duo united as one armored rabbit with fox's features, Hybrid Hustler form.

"Oh my tod! Feeling so much better!" Nick rejoiced when he no longer felt uncomfortable in his stomach.

"Let's roll." Judy, together with Nick as the flamingo red hero, rushed to the scene.

The left paw pressing the syringe "ACTIVATE", Hybrid sprinted with a great speed towards agents who were having a rodent problem. The armored mammal jumped up and clawed the flying Savages in the air.

One dodged Hybrid's sharp claw in time, whereas the other one's tail was cut off. Purple steam gushed out from its wound before the wound was closed by its rapid healing.

Right afterwards, the armored mammal landed on the ground amid the astonished agents.

Bull Savage's instinct alerted it of Hybrid the armored mammal, then screamed at it to attack the recently arrived threat. The Bull Savage, ignoring SCU agents who were shooting at it, sped towards the doe rabbit with fluffy fox tail.

"Hybrid!?" Maximus seemed surprised although he was supposed to expect the armored mammal to show up in the fight.

The mammals, standing around Hybrid, saw the intimidating bovine monster coming their way, thereby scattering.

Hybrid side rolled to avoid being butted. When the bull Savage almost ran past the small bunny figure, the armored mammal "ACTIVATE" activated an enhanced strength, twisted the body while jumping to create spinning motion and then kicked the monster in its flank.

The kick sent the bovine monster reeling sideways. However, its exoskeleton remained intact.

"That bull's sure tougher than I thought." Nick commented when he caught sight of neither crack nor scratch on external skeleton of the Savage.

"We gotta try again." Judy dashed to get the bull monster from its behind.

"Carrots, it's not a good idea to-" Nick was about to stop her along with Hybrid 's body from advancing towards the sturdy Savage's rear but it was too late.

Hybrid under Judy's control had already leapt to it. At once, the bovine monster bucked aggressively. Its back hoof hit Hybrid in midair, sending the united duo flying backward.

"-approach a bull from behind..." Nick said as Hybrid fell on the ground.

Like always, it did not hurt, still it was a bummer that a simple fight strategy backfired in public.

"Noted" Judy responded unimpressedly.

Shortly afterwards, the flying mouse Savage s dived towards Hybrid. Promptly, a few agents hastily opened fire on the rodent monsters. The purple mouse which still had its tail was shot down on the spot, while the tailless one merely got grazed by the bullets.

The surviving winged mouse, flapping its wings furiously, attacked the armored mammal lying on the back. Accordingly, Hybrid blocked its biting and scratching with both arms.

And suddenly, the bull Savage bellowed, its purple skin turning purplish pink, its exoskeleton bursting apart because of the expanded muscles. It subsequently leapt, plunged and spun around madly.

"This is bad! Bolt! Do something!" Rhino, watching the hacked cctv, shouted into a mic.

"Quick! Switch to another form!" Mittens ordered loudly.

"I can't! I told you my zipper is stuck!" He tried hard to unzip his right arm, yet failed to do so.

The going berserk purplish-pink Savage abruptly hurtled to a nanny goat and her kid whom a wild boar SCU agent was escorting to somewhere safe.

Seeing that, the united duo concentrated, looking for an opportunity to finish the mouse right in Hybrid's face, and then seized the winged rodent monster, crushing it in the paws.

Throwing aside the vaporizing lifeless body of the purple mouse with a pair of wings, Hybrid stood up hurriedly. Nick and Judy, sharing the vision, got a glimpse of the boar hugging the goat mom and her kid in order to use himself as a meat-shield protecting them from the raging bull.

Consequently, Hybrid hit the syringe "ACTIVATE", rashly teleporting to block the way of the Savage that was lowering its head, preparing to ram any mammals in its way. The armored mammal emerged out of thin air to confront the bovine monster face to face.

..-. . .- ... - / - -. / ..-. . .- .-.

At Finnick's apartment, he and Clawhauser were getting to know each other more.

The cheetah was amazed by the fennec fox's real age and the fact that he had known the truth about Hybrid for quite a period of time longer than the cheetah had. For the small canine, he found that the big cat was such good company, especially when it comes to gossiping about the bunny fox duo.

Out of the blue, Nick's unconscious body, supposed to stay still on the sofa, started to writhe. Clawhauser and Finnick dropped their conversation and hurried to check their friend.

"Wh-What's happening here!?" Clawhauser panicked.

"Never seen him acting like this before." Finnick only remembered that whenever the two unite as Hybrid, Nick's mindless body would appear in a deep sleep.

"Is Nick gonna be alright!?"

"Dude! I'm as clueless as you are!"

..-. . .- .-. / ... - .-. .. -.- .

The boar agent shut his eyes tight, preparing himself to get severely hurt, opened his eyes when the expected pain did not arrive. He saw the raging bull monster was stopped by Hybrid who turned back on him together with the nanny goat and her kid.

Directly after activating the instant transmission ability, physical power of Hybrid Hustler form considerably drops momentarily. To put it simply, in a brief moment, Hybrid becomes much more vulnerable than usual.

At that moment, Hybrid was gored by the bull Savage, the tip of one horn stabbing the armored mammal's stomach.

The bovine monster, head being forced to be low to the ground, could neither pull its horns back nor move forth because Hybrid was grabbing the stabbing horn and a head of the monster firmly, Hybrid's foot claws digging deep in the ground.

SCU agents in the area including Maximus became completely speechless.

Hybrid then slowly raised one leg. The leg was stretched up straight, tip of the foot pointing at the sky. The duo as one twisted the handle back "CRITICAL BREAK" before Hybrid brought the leg downward forcefully.

The flamingo red heel struck the purplish pink head of the bull monster. Tip of its horn got pulled out of the armored mammal stomach in the process.

The earth shook when the axe kicking foot hit the Savage so hard that its head sank into the ground.

Shocked, the SCU agents gazed at Hybrid whose paw was covering a fresh stomach wound that was releasing purple steam. They did not know what to do in that situation. Some of them even thought that this was a great chance to catch the armored combination of rabbit and fox. On the other hand, it would be too cruel to do such a thing.

"Come on, guys! Hurry!" Maximus took a step, heading towards Hybrid.

"Is it right to arrest them now…?" Wolford questioned, believing his boss must be thinking about capturing the armored hero.

"Do I look like a idiot to you!? First and foremost, we have to save wounded mammals no matter who they are." He continued getting closer to Hybrid, "Call an ambulance." commanding his subordinates.

"Hybrid, please come with us. You need serious medical treatment." He spoke to the armored mammal.

"Sorry" The voice that came out was female, not a playful male voice SCU agents normally heard, which confused Maximus greatly.

"Gotta dash" Nick quickly took charge of the body, then "ACTIVATE" escaped the scene by instant transmission.

The united duo popped up behind the corner of one building, peeking at Maximus ordering the agents to confirm the civilians' safety in the area and search for Hybrid. The armored walk a few step unsteadily prior to falling to knees, covering the hole in stomach with both paws.

Judy was fully aware that if she and Nick stayed together as Hybrid any longer in this stage, Nick's real body would be affected as well and receive a vital injury. She therefore moved Hybrid's left paw to the silver syringe with intention to detransform.

"Stop thinking it, Judy." Nick swiftly moved Hybrid's right paw to hold the left paw back.

"If we detransform now, you will definitely suffer too much damage to endure!" He said, worried about his dear bunny partner.

"You're right, Nick..."

The left arm which Judy was controlling became less tense.

"Let's figure a solution together, partner." She sounded genuine.

Nick, glad that she understood him, loosened the hold on the left arm.

Seizing the moment, Judy pulled the silver syringe.

The very next thing Nick perceived was that he, waking up, returned to his body.

"Nick!" Both Clawhauser and Finnick grew relieved after watching their fox friend writhing for a short period of time.

However, their relief switched back to worry again when they saw that Nick's expression was full of fear and anxiety.

"Judy! Judy!" The unnerving fox got up in a hurry. The one and only thought in his mind was to save his friend, his partner, his bunny.

But he forgot the important thing...

After detransformation, Nick normally experienced fatigue and this time was no exception. He collapsed on Finnick's apartment floor, "Judy… Judy..." roughly crawling on the floor as he was calling to her.

Meanwhile, Judy the doe rabbit, kneeling on the ground, successfully detransformed. She clutched her stomach, her face expressing extreme exhaustion mixed with agony.

"It's called a hustle, sweetheart." Judy said weakly before she flopped down while drifting out of consciousness.
