AN: If you want a certain song to be used you can either say in a review or PM and if I ever come across to using that song I will credit you for the suggestion. I don't care what type of song it is, it could even be a bedtime song intended for babies and I will even make a chapter about.
But anyway, Feel free to leave a review, follow and favorite and if you wish to, you can contact me via PM.
Given the amount of confusion, questions and readers not being able to make the link between the chapter and the song name, I have decided to have a second shot at this song. I wasn't asked to do this by anyone, just had the urge to do so. Hopefully, this one turns out better.
Also, going to be spending some time dedicated to creating chapters and updating this story a bit so I don't end up with 50+ suggestions waiting to be turned into a chapter.
Thanks to Cimar Of Turalis WildeHopps for clearing some points up and making sure I didn't run off topic (again).

Zootopia Song Short Stories
Song 6: Tonight The World Dies
"Ughhh, filthy preds" Bellwether voiced out loud with a scoff, her voice low but still had traces of her usual chipper voice that she saved for public outings. "What do you think Judy?"
Only slightly surprised by being addressed by the ewe, Judy looked out the window as she spoke "I agree with you, Mayor Bellwether, terrible mammals, the lot of them"
Judy watched the ewe's reaction out of the corner of her eye but was surprised when the sheep wasn't looking at her. Instead, the mayor was looking at the other vehicle occupant, Doug.
The three mammals were all mostly sitting comfortably in the back of the mayoral limo. Modeled and built for mayor Lionheart. Because of this, the seats were too big for every mammal, making it easily possible to fall between the seat cushions. Judy didn't get an opportunity to see who was driving them but she did know Bellwether, chances were that a prey mammal was driving them.
Judy hadn't realized, but Bellwether was now looking straight at her with a very small smile. "Judy, what have I told you about calling me 'Mayor Bellwether'?" the sheep asked in a friendly voice "We are friends, there is no need for the formalities"
Bowing her head a little, ears flat against her back, Judy spoke in a low voice "Sorry Dawn"
Smiling even more, Dawn moved along her seat and wrapped an arm around the doe in a friendly hug "That didn't hurt did it?"
Moving back to where she was sitting, Dawn looked over to Doug and nodded her head towards him, to which he nodded back.
"Do you know where we are going?" Dawn asked the doe as she turned her attention back to the grey bunny.
Judy shook her head and raised her head to look at Dawn "No, I wasn't cleared to enter the meeting"
"Really now?" Dawn asked with a surprised and annoyed look "I'll make sure something happens to that squirrel" the ewe said lowly before perking up and talking to Judy in her chipper voice again "Judy my dear friend, we are going to the climate wall, do you know why?"
Again, Judy shook her head in the negative. Dawn continued without a second thought. "My friend Doug over there," she said while pointing a hoof towards the silent ram "has perfected the arts in turning an already beautiful flower or whatever it was, into a weapon"
Head shooting up, Judy looked straight at Dawn "Weapon? How can you turn a flower into a weapon?"
"It's a long process," Doug said in a harsh voice, dismissing Judy's question.
"It doesn't matter how Judy, it only matters what we will use it for, but not right now, I'll tell you just before we finish this little plan of mine"
The rest of the journey was left in a tense silence.
Judy shaking a little over not knowing what was going on.
"Follow me Judy" Dawn spoke casually as she exited herself out of the limo and started to walk towards the climate wall.
Quickly exiting the limo and catching up to the ewe. Judy looked back and watched as Doug walked towards the back of the limo.
"Don't mind him Judy" Dawn said as she placed a hoof on one of the bunny's shoulders.
The two walked in silence for a while. It was broken when the duo entered the climate wall and started to climb up the hundreds upon thousand flights of stairs.
"I'm truly thankful for what you did Judy" There was silence again as Judy didn't know how to respond. "Putting Lionheart behind bars, where that disgusting pred belongs"
Tongue in a bit of a twist, Judy stuttered out her reply, "Wel... W...Well I was...Was just doing my job"
Dawn nodded her head to show that she heard the stuttering bunny before quickly turning around and causing the bunny to jump back and fall down onto her back. "I do have one question though" the sheep continued, looking down at Judy, not offering any help for the fallen doe. "Why did you get help from that fox and not me?"
Judy's mind was empty. She couldn't think of an excuse for that.
Dawn could tell.
"We are here today Judy, to bring an end to the most disgusting place in the world. Bring an end to the place that spat in mother natures face. We are here to bring an end to Zootopia" Taking a few steps away from the bunny, Dawn answered the question that was in Judy's head. "Doug had turned a flower or whatever it was, into a weapon that will destroy Zootopia, you have already seen it in action so there is no need for me to tell you"
It didn't take long for Judy to work out what the crazy sheep was talking about "Nighthowler" she said in a low voice that echoed across the empty hall they were standing in.
"Bingo" Dawn spoke, back turned to Judy and a smile on her face.
Having got the information she wanted. Judy brought herself up to her feet and reached for her hidden tranquilizer before pointing it at the back of Bellwether. "Mayor Bellwether, you are under arrest, please get down on your hooves and knees, you have the right to remain silen-"
Judy was cut off as she was pushed down onto her front. Tranquilizer falling out of her paws instantly. If it wasn't for her quick reflexes and being able to move her paws to cover her face, Judy's face would have smacked into the floor with full force.
Taking a few steps forward and picking up the tranquilizer, Bellwether started to walk slowly towards the downed doe.
Judy started to bring herself to her feet only to let out a cry and fall back down as one of Doug's hooves was pushed down onto her back and kept her pinned to the floor.
"I would have thought that Bogo would be smarter than to send a meter maid to do an undercover job," Bellwether said in a harsh voice as she stopped right in front Judy.
Judy looked up at Dawn and moved her paws to grab at the sheep's legs only to stop and let out another cry as the pressure on her back was increased as Doug pushed down with more strength.
Dawn crouched down and smiled at the bunny, the result was exactly what she wanted. Judy went to reach for her again only for her cry's to echo off the walls.
Bellwether nodded at Doug and he slowly removed his hoof from the crying doe. Dawn slowly moved around Judy's body, knowing the bunny wasn't in any condition to try anything again anytime soon.
Dawn pulled out the hidden pawcuffs, the outline easy to spot and looked at Doug "Bring her over here" Bellwether commanded as she walked towards the generator that controlled the weather in the two district that was divided by the wall.
Try as much as she could, Judy couldn't stop herself from being pawcuffed to the pole. If she didn't have her back crushed and heavily bruised a few seconds ago, she was sure that she could have resisted. But she was too weak with no chance of effectively fighting back. "You won't get away with this Bellwether," Judy spat out. Voice strong and loud, unlike how she felt.
Bellwether laughed a little as Doug walked back to the stairs and picked up a crate before bringing it back to the cuffed bunny. "Why not meter maid?" the sheep asked, no longer using the doe's name, instead aiming to insult and anger the bunny, wanting to see her in more harm.
"Because Chief Bogo and the whole of Precinct one heard where we are, heard your confession and are storming this wall searching for you as we speak"
Bellwether's facial expression didn't change. The small smile remained. "You mean they heard everything on that little mic?" Dawn asked as she pointed at the mic's location on Judy "You really are a dumb bunny, do you really think I wouldn't think Bogo would do something like this? Doug isn't only good at creating weapons, he can create jammers as well, the type of jammers that stop communication between cops" The ewe spoke as she reached in her pocket and pulled out a surprisingly small communication jammer and held it out for the bunny to see.
Just like that, the whole situation revealed itself to Judy. She didn't have any backup, didn't have officers running through the halls trying to find her, she wasn't going receive medical attention anytime soon. She was on a suicide mission and had been ever since she entered the limo with Bellwether.
Dawn opened up the crate that was placed directly in front of the doe. The blue orbs glowing in the small amount of light. "There is one way you can make this better for yourself Judy, join us, you can have the honors and release the first pellet into whatever district you want, either Sahara Square or TundraTown, we already have others at different key locations in each district, waiting for me to give the all go"
Judy stared at the crate of Nighthowlers. She didn't spend any time thinking about the proposal. Lowering her head, Judy spoke in a low voice "I'll do it"
"I'm sorry, what was that?" Bellwether asked, knowing what the weak bunny said but wanting to hear it again.
"I'll do it!" Judy shouted at the top of her voice.
Bellwether smiled as she moved behind the bunny and unlocked the cuffs.
Standing up on shaking paws. Judy very slowly pulled out a single Nighthowler. Leaning against the wall, Judy looked up and looked where Bellwether and Doug was. Bellwether close by and Doug was back at the stairs.
Taking the chance, Judy threw the pellet onto a far wall and pushed herself off the wall and tackled Bellwether, knocking the sheep off her feet. In a desperate attempt to help herself and the city, Judy grabbed the small jammer that had fallen out of Bellwethers pocket and jumped to her hindpaws. Moving as fast as she could, Judy ran straight to the crate of Nighthowlers and pushed it over, spilling the contents and creating a big blue puddle of Nighthowlers, Doug having to jump back to avoid coming into contact with the substance.
Running as fast as she could, Judy ran to the stairs and dropped the jammer down the middle before running up more stairs. A jolt of pain shooting up her spine with each step she took.
When she heard the chaos of mammals in the ZPD moving around frantically Judy stopped ascending the stairs, the jammer too far away to disrupt the wire on her body. "Chief!" Judy screamed into the mic, hoping to gain someone's attention.
All sounds stopped and everything was silent, Judy choosing to stop and hide somewhere, her breathing heavy from the pain in her spine and fear.
"Judy!" came a very familiar voice from the very small and thankfully hidden earpiece, the voice that was the reason behind her being chosen for this once promising mission. The voice of a silver tongued fox who sounded concerned, his voice dry as if he had just been crying. "Judy, where are yo-"
"Nick! Bellwether is in the climate wall, she's going to release Nighthowlers into the city, she's going to turn every predator savage!" Judy frantically spoke into her mic, hoping to relay as much information to the ZPD as she could.
"Hopps, please talk slower, we have multiple vehicles ready to move" Bogo's voice responded. Judy wasn't sure who else was listening in on the conversation but she couldn't care, the more who heard the better.
"Chief! You were right, there is more to the missing mammal's cases" Judy spoke as slowly and clearly as she could "Bellwether was responsible for it all, she had a friend creating the substance which she somehow injected each mammal with" taking a short breath to try and calm herself a little, Judy continued "she had a jammer so we couldn't communicate, we are now in the climate wall, there was a crate of Nighthowlers but I managed to destroy it before I ran away"
"Where are you meter maid?" the voice of Doug spat out and echoed across the halls.
There was a moment of tense silence. Judy didn't know how long it was for. Doug was slowly walking closer and closer towards her hiding spot.
The ram stopped right in front of Judy. Her breathing stopped as she held her breath, not wanting to be spotted.
Again, Judy wasn't sure how much time passed. She could feel herself slowly turning purple under her fur.
She finally let her breath out as Doug started walking again.
"Judy!" Nick's voice came from the bunny's earpiece
"Nick" Judy spoke in a very quiet whisper, her breathing heavy and slightly louder than usual from the lack of oxygen "Nick I can't do this"
"Don't talk like that Judy, of course you can stop tha-"
"No Nick I can't" Judy cut the fox off. Tears falling from her eyes. "My back is heavily bruised after being crushed by a ram, I don't have my pawcuffs or my tranq, I have nothing Nick, Bellwether has it all and I can't stop her"
Nick didn't have a response. It didn't matter how much he wanted Judy to succeed, he knew that everyone had their limits, Judy was currently at hers.
"Just hold tight Judy, Bogo has multiple vehicles moving to the wall" Nick spoke his voice becoming dryer and dryer by the second as he spoke. Clear that he was crying again
"Nick, I'm sorry for failing you"
"You didn't fail me Judy" the fox replied quickly, trying to reassure the doe
"You stood up to Bogo and argued with him, argued why I should be the one on this mission and not someone who is trained in this. Bogo put his trust in you and me and now I have failed, I've failed the city"
The bunny stopped what she was saying as she was pulled out of her hiding spot by her ears and being thrown onto the floor, the earpiece somehow staying in her ear. Letting out another loud cry as her already injured back landed on the hard floor.
"Judy!" Nick shouted as he heard his best friend cry from pain, his voice ringing in Judy's ear
Judy looked up at Doug and saw him aiming the small tranquilizer at her. "You don't know when to quit do you?" He spat out before pulling the trigger, the tranq going straight into Judy's stomach.
"Judy! Judy! What happened?" Nick shouted into the mic on his end, scared for the safety of his friend.
Doug pulled out his own walkie-talkie and held it up to his mouth "Meter maid is down Dawn, unleash the Nighthowlers, there are more crates next to the generator"
Judy hadn't thought of the possibility of there being more crate. But it made sense. Why only bring one crate when you knew that there was an undercover cop that would destroy them at the first chance they get?
Summoning the last bit of strength she had, Judy spoke as loud as she could into the mic "shot by tranq, losing conscientiousness" Her eye's growing heavy as she watched Doug walk back towards the stairs, presumably to help Bellwether "Nighthowlers released...all over Zootopia..." The thought of what was happening outside the wall and all over the city scared Judy.
What scared her even more was knowing that her friend was going to be exactly like everyone else, a mindless savage. "I'm sorry Nick"
Before she felt herself go fully unconscious, she heard the usually calming voice of the red fox, only now it wasn't calming at all. It was evidently scared. "Judy...I...I lo-"
Everything else the fox said was unheard by the bunny as unconsciousness took over her.
