Chapter 2

Over the next few days the black Ford had been casually parking in front on the orphanage. Mrs. Maxwell took notice of this, and decided to call the police. At the police station one morning, Chief Bogo gave out the assignments.

"Hopps Wilde, we got a call from Mrs. Maxwell, the head of the Zootopia's Children's Home in Savanna Central, she's been seeing a car watching the place, check it out." instructed Chief Bogo.

"On it, Chief." the two replied.

The two hopped in their police cruiser, and drove to the orphanage.


"Thank you so much for coming, officers." said Mrs. Maxwell, as she led Judy and Nick into her office.

"No problem, Mrs. Maxwell, now you've been seeing a car parked outside of the orphanage the past few days?" asked Nick.

"That's right, at first I didn't think anything of it, but then I realized that it's been in the same spot every day for that last few days."

"How long does it stay in this spot?" wondered Judy.

"They usually get here around 7:00, it goes away for a couple of hours, comes back around 3:00, then it doesn't leave until 11:00 at night."

"Is there anything else?" asked Nick, writing the information down.

"No, but you do understand why I'm concerned."

"Don't worry, Mrs. Maxwell we'll find who's been hanging around." Judy promised.

"Thank you, I just wonder how I'm gonna tell all the kids." said Mrs. Maxwell.

"We can help out." offered Judy.

"Thank you very much."

When all the kids got back from school, Mrs. Maxwell called them all to the dining room.

"Everyone, we may have a issue, so please give your attention to Officer Hopps and Wilde." she announced.

"Kids, we're investigating a car that's been driving hanging around this place, now not to scare you all but we need you to be aware of anything suspicious." said Nick.

"If you see a black car hanging around under no circumstances go near it, and if anyone from the car tries to talk you don't try and talk back just leave and tell Mrs. Maxwell. Thank you." advised Judy.

Hearing this news made Rita feel a little nervous, so she decided to have a word with the officers.

"Um, Officers Hopps and Wilde?" asked Rita, as the two were about to leave.

"Oh, hi what's your name?" questioned Judy.

"Rita."

"Well what can we do for you, Rita?" wondered Nick.

"I was wondering will the animals in this car try to hurt us?"

Nick knelt down, and put a paw on Rita's shoulder.

"Don't worry, Rita. We'll make sure no one gets hurt."

"And here, if there's anything you need just give us a call." said Judy, giving Rita her card which had her cell phone number on it.

"Thanks." Rita replied, and the two left.


The next day, when Rita got ready to head off to school, she put Ronnie in her backpack. Sure carrying around a doll didn't seem appropriate at her age, but having Ronnie with her gave her a sense security.

At school while the teacher taught the kids D.O.L., Rita glanced out the window, and saw a black car. She didn't think much of it until she saw the same black car at recess, and when the kids came back from lunch it was still there.

When school was over, Rita stopped in the restroom before leaving, but when she came out she saw that her bus had left already.

"Oh, great. Well at least I know the way back to the orphanage." sighed Rita, and she started walking.

"She's alone." observed the caribou in the car.

"Follow her, but be casual, remember when there's no one in sight we grab her." ordered the wolf.

Then the car started following her. Rita got a bad feeling, and turned around. The car stopped, and acted casual. So Rita started walking again, and the car still followed. When she got to some stores, she quickly went into one of them.

She pulled out her cell phone, and the card Judy gave her. Judy and Nick were currently taking a coffee break, when Judy got the call.

"Hello, Officer Hopps?" asked Judy over the phone.

"Officer Hopps, it's Rita."

"Rita, what is it?"

"That black car you talked about is following me."

"Where are you, sweetie?"

"I'm in Targoat, I'm scared."

"Stay right where you are, we're coming to get you."

She hung up the phone, started the car, and put the siren on.

"What's going on?" wondered Nick.

"That black car's following Rita." Judy explained.

In Targoat, Rita had hid in a dressing room, hoping that whoever was in the car wouldn't find her. The caribou and wolf had went inside to look for her.

"She could be anywhere." said Derek, the wolf.

"Just look for a little mink." advised Shane, the caribou.

Judy and Nick had just arrived, and started looking for Rita.

"Excuse me, have you seen a little girl mink?" Judy asked a worker.

"She ran into the dressing rooms."

"Thanks." replied Nick, and the two were off.

Judy went into the ladies' dressing rooms, to look for Rita.

"Rita, it's Officer Hopps." she said.

Rita slowly opened the door, and saw Judy. She ran to Judy and hugged her.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah." Rita answered.

"Come on, let's get you out of here."

From a distance Derek and Shane saw Rita leaving with Judy and Nick.

"Drat, she's with the cops." complained Shane.

"The boss ain't gonna like this." mentioned Derek.

In the police cruiser, Judy and Nick drove Rita to the police station. They didn't know how and why, but one thing was for sure, someone was after Rita.
