AN:/ Well, this is going to be a short arc. Well, I like to call it an ark. I have only so long til' school starts, and I'm trying to enjoy sleeping in and not worrying about grades or people for as long as I can.

Don't expect daily updates. Occasionally, maybe. After Thursday, I'd say about 2-3 days at the latest for a chapter.

This is also a late one, and short. The script for the movie gave me a lot to work with.. Now, it's all me. x3

Chapter Summary:

After having her first conversation with two animals that wasn't one-sided, Suzanne wondered just how in the heck is this possible? Now, she has woken up to her Mom cooking breakfast outside, and her Dad gone to the beach. So, that leaves her little time but some privacy to not look like she was crazy, and try to explain everything to Judy and Nick, as they too have questions for her.
Questions that are both odd, and familiar...
After all of this is said, done, over with. It's about 7 PM.
Suzanne gets out her DVD player, and continues watching "Zootopia". She finds herself slowly succumbing to sleep.
Then things happen. Some strange, amazing things..

"Hey...- .. Pssht, Suzanne.. " I rolled onto my side, eyes wincing at the light streaming down, right onto my face. Need some ceiling curtains. "Suzanne!.." I groaned, and grasped onto my pillow, shoving the side of my face into its warmth and softness.
It was quiet for a minute, until I heard a door slam shut, and footsteps come closer. I slowly opened my eyes, and almost smacked the poor animal in front of me if he hadn't of moved in time. "Hey! Watch it! You're gonna kill something." I calm down enough to glare at him. Well, I wouldn't say an effective glare. He smirked at my try at looking angry. "I always smile when I look someone in the face, so... Pissed off happiness is what I'm showing right now." I said through clenched teeth, in a bright and sunshine happy smile. He rolled his eyes.
I smoothed out the bunched up blankets surrounding me, and Nick pulled himself up onto the bed, and sat down in front of me, looking out the net towards the lake. "Judy went out to "Check the perimeter for any threats." If I was being honest, your family is threat enough." I bit my lip, to cut off a remark about his choice of clothing, and instead, hummed in acknowledgement. He turned to me, and I instinctively don't look him in the eye, and continue smoothing out my bed sheets. "She also told me to ask you some questions about... This." He made a hand gesture to symbolize, 'Everything here.' I nod, and try to look him in the eyes.
The one thing I can hardly ever do to someone. Now, I cant do it to a fox. Come on, me! He's my favorite character! Plus I love foxes, they're pretty. I watched The Fox and The Hound when I was a kid, all the time!

Nick sighed, and cleared his throat, "Is that literally always necessary to clear your throat? You were just talking, not 2 seconds ago."
Is what I wanted to say, but all I did was almost choke, then sigh in defeat. Talking to someone I hardly know, great. Talking to a fox, fantastic. Talking to.. Wait, I do know him! Zootopia, duh...- But I still can't talk to him.
"...are we?" I shook my head, and I knew I had a glazed look in my eyes because when I stare off into space, I tend to creep people out who pass by. "O-Oh! Uh, well.. You're both in Kentucky, at Barren River." He raised a brow. "So, what climate? District?" I gave him a confused look. "If you mean, like, Hunger Games district, no. There are countries, states, cities, towns... We have maps, but.. I think I know what you mean by climate- Okay, not sure if this applies to you," I start, actually getting excited to talk about stuff like this. "But we don't have set climates, in set places. We simply go with the flow." At this, he raised an eyebrow. I sighed.
"Oh, okay.. Okay.. Let's see.." I put my thumb to my lip in thought. I felt his eyes on me, and that didn't help. What the heck was he doing, studying me? "Well, for example, here in Kentucky, we have the usual, Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter." He raised both eyebrows.

"Wait, wait, wait.. So, you don't have districts, wi-" Nick began, but I waved him off. "No we don't have districts with specific climates to fit any mammal needs." He froze, and I paused in my mumbling. "If anything, Africa is nearly the most desolate, and there is Antarctica...-What?" I stopped at his stunned look.
"Seriously, what could I have said to provoke that type of reaction?" I muttered to myself, and debated on poking or flicking his nose.
He blinked, and looked down, eyes still widened. "...Let's get off this subject, another question.." He ordered, and I stopped my train of thought, and sent it off somewhere else across long-term memory. "A-Alright.. So, what ne-"
"Is that your real name?" I looked to the side, then back to him. What? "You didn't change it to anything," I raised a brow at him this time. "That's illegal until I'm at least 20 something, I think." He continued on. "So, that is your real name, Suzanne Daniels." I nodded, and he squinted his eyes at me. "Middle." I blinked at him. "If you're wondering what my middle name is, it's old. Margaret." He made that face again. "I know, old lady name." I grimaced, and wondered when the heck Mom was going to come in.
Nick was starting to worry me, with all those expression changes.

"Okay, new question... Do you remember.. Manchas?" He started off with something simple, on the top of his head. I nodded, and smiled. Oh! Him? I love his character. Sounds all tough, but is so sweet. Adorable! "Yeah! The Limo Driver, that got attacked by Mr. Otterton." I frowned at that. Poor jaguar. I remember that scene from the movie. Never gonna underestimate otters now. I didn't even think about how he phrased the question.
Nick looks surprised, but kept asking questions. "Mr. Big, and his daughter, who are they?.." I nod at the names. "Okay, Mr. Big is part of a mafia, I'm pretty sure, and Fru Fru? She's really nice, and I hope her marriage is going along fine." I chuckled, remembering she had a wedding in the movie. Though why did I ask how she was doing? It's not like the movie added any extras.

"What did you wear at the reception?" I furrowed by eyebrows at that. Wear? I set my elbow on my knee, and placed my hand to my cheek, and looked down at the folds and crevices of the covers below me. Flashes of golden brown, and black made me blink a few times. Something... "Brown... And... -..Something.. " Golden.. I narrowed my eyes in thought. "It.. Made me uncomfortable.. " There were no straps... "Was worried it would.. Fall off.." I muttered, and sat up straight, an image of an animal in a dress passed behind my eyelids.

I shook my head, and gazed at Nick. I scrunched my shoulders reflexively at his stunned look. He was gripping the sheets under him, and I could see his eyes were watery. He blinked hard a couple times, and looked down to the floor beside him. Judy was right... I should've believed her.. But... Shes not..
I grew a concerned look for the fox, and I lowered myself down, so that I could peer up, and try to see his eyes. "Hey.. You okay?" I asked, smiling kindly. He only gripped the sheets tighter. "..N..No, I'm.. Fine, Peach.." He took in a breath, and slid down the bed, just as I placed a hand to his back. I froze. Did I push him off by accident?
Then my eyes narrowed, and I scooted off the bed, and landed beside him. I sat down immediately, knowing I towered over him and it probably made him uncomfortable, and continued to glare. In my own way, with a grin.

"A friggin' Peach? Why? It's round, fuzzy..-" I stopped, and frowned this time. He stood beside me, and turned to look at me, straight in the eyes, and I tried to gaze back, but they kept flickering to his tie, the microwave, floor, his shirt. "There ya' go, Peach." He said, softly, and I blinked.
So, my new nickname was Peach, now?

I jolted when I heard the door close, and turned to see Judy. I raised a brow, and she walked over, and stood in front of my by Nick. "Well, this place is.. Different." Is all she said, and I couldn't help but chuckle. "Yeah. I guess it would be."
She nodded "We have to talk, I need to ask him something." She said, and turned to Nick, walked over to the far end of the camper, and gestured for him to follow. Nick slumped his shoulders, and went over to her.

So, I guess while their discussing their battle plans, I'll listen to music. Standing up, I walk over to my backpack leaning against my bed, opened the little compartment on the front, and pulled out my MP4. Flopping back onto y bed, I laid back to stare at the trees above, as I placed my headphones on a plugged it into the device.

Today was going to be a long day.

"So? What did she say?" Judy asked, clapping her paws excitedly. Nick put his paws in his pockets, and rocked on his heels. "Well, she said that we are in a place named Kentucky. It has a... Changing climate." Judy tilted her head, and shrugged. "..Then, well. I asked her about... Manchas." At this, Judy groaned, face-pawing. "Nick!" He continued to rock on his heels. "And Mr. Big, the wedding.."
Judy put her hands on her hips. "..She.. She remembers.. Only a little." Nick mumbled, eyes shifting over to the sprawled girl 25 feet away. Judy's ears lowered. "Nick, I told you not to ask her anything like that." Judy scolds, and looked over to the girl as well. She sighed.
"Carrots! She told me what she wore, I know you said she wouldn't recall a thing, but she did!" "Nick, she told us she wouldn't remember a thing."
Nick crossed his arms. "But she did. We just need to ask her more stuff." Judy's eyes narrowed. "Why do you need proof? Is it because she isn't a animal? Look, I know they're odd-looking, but they aren't a threat." Nick stared down at the bunny, and she glared up at him. "We're leaving tonight."

Nick gaped at the rabbit. "Wha- How? How do you propose we do that?" Judy smirked, and pointed to the device laying near the foot of the bed where the strange girl laid. "We go back, just like the same way she went in."

It was night, once more, a few days into our vacation.

I was up. Watching some movies. I couldn't find Nick and Judy anywhere, and assumed they were off looking at things or ran away. Maybe it was just me losing my mind.
At 6, Dad and Mom had went to bed early, because they wanted to try fishing in the morning. Good luck with that. I snuggled deeper into my blankets. I had gotten used to the net, and now it supported me and my pillows. It was nice, I'll admit. Being able to see the stars.

I opened the compartment for the DVD player, and took out Ice Age: Dawn of The Dinosaurs. I looked around for the case, and my hand brushed against something hot. I yelped, and dropped the disc. Now I couldn't find the dvd, or see how bad my hand was injured.
Squinting my eyes, I reached over again, and patted around hesitantly. I made physical contact with a disc, and I put it in, wanting some light to see everything.

Expecting something like Jurassic Park, or Gnomeo and Juliet, I instead saw the familiar blue and green, "Zootopia." I shrugged, and turned its screen to face me, and look down at my hand. I yawned, and pulled the covers back over me, and after awhile, I closed my eyes, just as Judy met Nick in Zootopia.

I sighed in content, and succumbed to sleep.

Blinking my eyes open, I stretch, and expect trees to tower above me, and gnats attacking my face. I get sun, no shade, no bugs. And whispers.

Lots of whispers.

I sit up, and look around. I see mammals. Animals. Walking, talking, pigs, giraffes, hippos, a bunny rabbit- "S..Suzanne? Suzanne! It's you!" I felt my head hit the back of a pole, and I groaned, as the bundle of energy hopped off me. I could even see her tail wagging. "Uhm, excuse me, but-" I froze, and a sheering pain erupted into the side of my head, and I doubled over, grasping my skull. I felt something press against my forehead, and I look up to see purple eyes. I raised a brow.
Judy Hopps. I could've sworn I heard a 'ding', as I rubbed my head, and stood up straight. I looked down, and blinked.

"Carrots?" She smiled. She started walking, and I followed her, hands behind my back, trying not to stare at all around me. Everything I notice, a little pinch is felt in the back of my head, and I feel as though I know it, or him or her.

"You've been away for a week and a half. Mind telling me where you went?" Judy asked, as we evaded a large group of antelope. I gaped, trying to think of a response.
You were stuck at your Grandmother's, since she was ill. "Uh..My Grandmother.. Was sick, so I had to help her since Mom was busy at school." Judy nodded, and I looked to the side, wide eyed. That worked?! Where did that-

"Yeah, you told us something about that in the lobby Friday. You really just up and left us, though." She bumped me with her hip afterwords, though. I stumbled a bit. "But I know someone is going to be real happy to see ya!" She chuckled, and bounded off, a large Police Car in view.
I squinted, and saw someone hopping out of it, and closing the door.

Judy had made her way over to him by the time I was halfway across the pavement. They were in front of a large building. The ZPD. I shook my head, and continued walking, as Judy talked to the, now I could make out, fox.
Wait... Judy, Bunny, ZPD officer, Fox, Nick Wilde, also ZPD officer.
I paused, as I was about a few feet away from them, and my eyes widened.

I still had my hands in my pockets, so when Nick Wilde ran over to wrap his arms around me, and spin me around, I had nothing to hang onto so I squeezed my eyes shut in surprise and mild embarrassment. He let me go, but kept me at arms length. He glared down at me.
"Carrots told me everything. Why didn't you tell me earlier?" He ruffled my head, and I chuckled nervously.

Nervously, well one: Because I didn't know jack squat what to do here, and why I was here. Two: Nick decided it was a-okay in both our books to lean down and kiss my cheek, before I ran over to Judy, hiding behind her at a smirking Nick.

He kissed me. Why?! Because he wants you to feel nervous and embarrassed, idiot.
Why me...
Because he has a crush on you. Won't ever admit it, but he does. It's obvious. I leaned against the car, as I battled my wits. Wits won, this time.

AN:/ This is... REEEALLLLYY short. I had little time. Its late too. We were busy today, and all I had time for was this.

I'll try harder to make them longer, but as I said, little time.

Hope you enjoyed, and see you next chapter!
