It was a cold rainy morning in Zootopia as Nick stands on the corner of the street waiting for the bus to come. he was dressed in a Pleather jacket. the traffic was unusually quiet for a rainy Monday morning."I wonder when the bus will decide to show up."Nick whispered to himself as a bright light draws near splashing him with a large wave of water."FUCK!" Nick shouted as he gets drenched in cold rain water. The bus opens to expose an elderly sloth. "Hi-are-you" Nick rolls his eyes " Nicholas- Piberius -Wild ?" Nick smiled and nodded his head "yes sir "Nick gets on the bus and takes a seat by a rabbit with gray fur and amethyst eyes. "So what makes a fox join the academy?" the rabbit said with curiosity dancing in her eyes. Nick gives a lazy smile with his tired eyes."The same thing that would make a Bunny join the police academy "The rabbit grits her teeth and glares at the predator next to her." what's the supposed to mean fox?!" Nick blinks and looks at the rabbit."Nothing just meant that I'm here to prove that I can be more than a sly fox. By the way names Nick. Nick Wilde yours?" He holds out his paw with a sly grin as the gray rabbit takes it in her own"The names Judy and sorry about that I have spent most of my life defending my choice in occupation from my parents and family for years"Judy smiles bashfully. "Hey, no worries Judy trust me, my Mom and sister, were not thrilled when I told them I wanted to join the military."He pulls out his dog tags and with a proud grin"Zootopian Marine corps 3rd Division"
Judy gasped as she looked at the fox with awe."You were a marine? " Nick smiled as he noticed a sign that welcomed them to the police academy. "Looks like we are here Judy ready to make the world a better place?" Judy smiled and nodded"you bet your tail fox"The bus came to a stop as the other animals filed out of the bus Nick and Judy lined up beside the other recruits in a single file line. As the mammals finish a Large female polar bears bursts out of the main building and storms over to the mammals in formation. Nick snaps to attention as soon as he hears the door open and Judy quick to follow suite hers being a little sloppy compared to Nicks."ALRIGHT MAGGOTS I AM DRILL INSTRUCTOR CORA AND THIS WILL BE YOUR HOME FOR THE NEXT NINE MONTHS!ZOOTOPIA HAS TWELVE UNIQUE ECOSYSTEMS WITHIN ITS CITY LIMITS. TUNDRATOWN SAHRA SQUARE THE RAINFORRIST DISTRICT TO NAME A FEW YOU HAVE TO MATER THEM ALL OF THEM BEFORE YOU HIT THE STREETS, OR GUESS WHAT YOUR DEAD! NOW YOUR LIVING ARRANGMENTS WILL BE That CABINS TWO PER CABIN AND THEY ARE UNISEX I AM NOT HERE TO HOLD YOUR FUCKING PAW IF YOU WANT TO FUCK THEN FUCK JUST MAKE SURE TO BE UP BRIGHT AND EARLY OR GUESS WHAT YOUR DEAD!"
They all lined up to get the cabin numbers as Judy gets hers she finds out that no other but Nick Wilde is her roommate. "Well look at that Mr. Wilde looks like you and I will be rooming for nine months." Nick looks at his own living assignment to see if she is right. "Huh seems so Carrots " Judy blinks and looks at her new roommate with wonder. "Why did you just call me Carrots ?"Nick just taps his nose and smiles as Judy blushes "Well in rabbit society it is a term of endearment." Nick's eyes widen with shock. "Woh sorry Judy I did not mean to offend you I mean I..."He starts rambling as Judy laughs and shakes her head "I don't mind Nick just know I won't be perpetuating the rabbit stereotype so soon." She smiles a sly smile as they head into their cabin.
There training was intense as they ran through a plane of neverending winter, Scorching hot sands , and the Deep lush jungle many animals dropped out during the five months they were there Judy never lost her determination and Nick had been through worse. "ALRIGHT MAGGOTS TODAY IS FIGHT DAY BUT WITH A TWIST TODAY You're FIGHTING ME WITHOUT GLOVES I WANT TO SEE CLAWS OR GUESS WHAT YOUR DEAD NOW WILDE SHOW ME WHAT YOU GOT!" He got into the ring and unsheathed his claws "Are you ready Fox?"Cora said with a malicious grin. All nick did was nod as the bell rang but nothing happened Nick stood there."What's the matter fox trot to afraid? " Nick just smiled and said. "Oh no I was just taught that a lady should always go first " He winks at her with his impish smile as she rushes in "YOUR DEAD FOX..."as she swings her Paw towards Nick as he dodges and climbs up her arm and hits her behind her right ear causing her to lose balance she falls to the ground hard. The training ground was silent as if no one dared to make a gets off Drill Sargent Cora and offers her his paw. "Sorry mam but you never rush into a fight with an unknown opponent." Cora nods her head."Good job Fox now get back in line" He does as he is told and waits for the exercise to end."BARLEY PASSABLE MAGGOTS NOW GO TO THE MESS HALL AND EAT IM SICK OF ALL OF YOU "The Mammals head to the mess hall but as Nick starts to head there he feels a large paw on his shoulder. "Sept for you Wildes you an I need to talk." They head over to Cora's office and as they get inside he sees a hauntingly familiar face staring right at him in the frame of an old photo. "Boris,"Nick says as he looks at the photograph in shock. "That's right Nick Boris Misha, my brother. " Nick looks at her as she sits behind her desk her name plaque reading Cora Misha. "I am so sorry Miss Misha I could not do anything to stop the bleeding I..I" He broke down in tears in front of the Drill instructor as she gets up and pulls him into a hug. "I know Nick. Boris was proud to call you a friend and a brother and that you always made him laugh. He respected you Nick and I don't blame you no one does " Nick nods and stands up."Sorry, Drill Sargent but I must get ready for tomorrow's run or I'm dead." He joked as Cora dismisses him. He heads back to the cabin haveing lost his appetite and waits for the next day.
The next few days were a blur as Nick and Judy proved themselves over and over again forming both a friendship and rivalry between them. On the sixth month, they were standing in front of a large building with no windows as Cora passes in front of the remaining animals. "ALRIGHT MAGGOTS THIS IS THE DARK OBSTICAL COURSE THERE ARE NO WINDOWS AND ONLY TWO WAS OUT YOU GIVE UP OR YOU MAKE IT TO THE END NOW GET GOING !" They all rush into the building as Nick climbs and jumps through the obstacles with ease but as he approaches the finish line he hears Judy cry out in what seems to be pain. He looks for around and sees her near the end clutching on to her ankle he runs over."What,s wrong carrots?" he exclaims with worry as he does not smell any blood."I twisted my ankle Nick and I can't get up" Nick lifts her into a fireman's carry and starts to head back towards the finish."Nick what are you doing I'm slowing you down!" Nick just gives her a smile as he replied."You see Judy Marines live by a code Semper Fidelis which means always loyal always brave but it means something more to me." Judy gazes up at him with wonder. "Whats that Nick?"Nick loses all humor and his gaze turns sharp as he spoke with pride."It means No mammal gets left behind"
