Chapter 4: The Buffalo, the Fennec, the duo and the human. (Part 1)

A/N: Long chapter that one, huh? No? Anyway, this is chapter 4, just keep on reading ugaiz. Guess the theme of the story already? No? Well, tune in for my story in Zootopia.

John Doe: Hold on, why you put me short? 163cm SHORT!?

Me: It's the average size of a red muntjac, by calculation and Wikipedia. Mine is same with you and just doing fine. We may be handsome and smart, but the genetics mess up with us by keeping us short. True story, my very tall friend, handsome and smart one is a very shy one for your knowledge, not to mention his feminine side. Be grateful my friend. Beside, Finnick really fits on my shoulder for your knowledge.

John Doe: Alright, alright. I'm grateful.

Finnick: You're saying I'm short!?

Me: No, I'm saying you're big, for a fennec.

John Doe: Ha-ha, big for a fennec… really LMAO me… ha-ha…

Me: Err, John?

John Doe: What- Oh shit…

(Censored part for containing violence. To be continue…)

-Present Day-

"Chief? Chief? Can you hear me? Chief Bogo?" Judy snapped me out from my grief. She stands on my desk.

"Huh? What, where am i? What you are-"I stammered, still in my grief.

"Err, chief? Are you… crying?" Nick asked me, tilting his head sideway, creating a perfect 90* ears (one up, one flat. You know what I mean?). I felt my cheek. Wet. Damn it, did I just cry? When realization hit me, I shook my head and type in my name and my password, getting the clearance. After that, I turned my laptop facing the duo.

"There, you know what to do. It's in level 3 clearance. I need some time alone." I speak to the duo, grabbing my car key under the drawer. The same car key John Doe gave it to me. I left my office and slammed the door quite hard, instantly waking up some officers who sleeping on the job. I walked towards the front lobby, past by Clawhauser who still gnawing on the donut while watching Gazelle's music video. I asked him to clock my time out. I reach my car, start the engine and pulled out my phone. There is a notification, a birthday notification on my Furbook. 'March 15. Today is John Doe's birthday. Post your wishes on his time line.' I smiled as I reading the notification. I tapped on the notification and type in my wishes.

'Happy birthday, John. It's been three years since the last time I met you. May you have a nice adventure at the other side, that is if you still alive. Lol.' I chuckle as I send the message. I set my GPS on my watch; the watch John Doe gives me as a present along with the car, towards the famous Chinese food restaurant, before going to the red muntjac apartment.

WildeHopps POV

The duo watches their boss as their boss stormed out of his room and slams it hard. They never see their boss in this state of emotion, let alone see one crying. Their boss, the strongest and sternest boss, weakens before their very eyes by just one name; John Doe.

"What is wrong with him today? I never saw that coming." Nick said with his eyebrows up, showing him an interest in his boss.

"I don't know. I never saw him like that. Is there anything I said wrong?" Judy asked Nick, confusion on her face emerged, still standing on Chief Bogo's desk.

"Nothing, you just say John Doe and his reaction changes afterward. I never knew he's so emotional, like you." Nick pointed Judy after saying the last word.

"Nick, I don't think he is THAT emotional. Who know John Doe is his friend, best friend, or even his close relative?"

"Yeah, it could be. Why don't you search for his name since you are STANDING on his desk?"

Judy realized she was standing on his desk. She turns her attention to chief's laptop and type in the name. After a few second, the result appears, with more detail of John Doe, the only mammals in level 3 clearances, and read it out loud.

-END REPORT-

(I try not to completely write a report on this case, or I spend a whole day just to write this report. If you feel like to complete the report, or extend it, pm me. I keep it updated and credited your name. It misses the suspect. It's your chance to include an OC in this fanfic for future chapter.)

The report reveals the truth of John Doe's identity. The description in the DMV was just a cover to hide the truth. A long silence follows after Judy said every detail of the report. Nick was the first one to break the silence.

"Judy-"

"Not now, Nick." Judy replied, still in her place. Her mind still processing about the report. The reason why Chief Bogo can't seem to type his name. His relation with the red muntjac. Father and son. Not like mention in the database. The strongest bond between officer and witness. He has bailed him out of charges of any crimes the red muntjac have.

"Judy, we need to visit him. We had to help chief. Get the address." Judy nodded slowly.

"Well, you never find him. Not at his house. He'll at that red muntjac apartment." A voice spoke behind the duo.

"Damn it, Benjamin. Don't make us jumped." Judy shouted. Nick seems to calm himself down after having a mini heart attack.

"I-I'm sorry to startle you. I never wanted to goose bumps you both." Benjamin Clawhauser, the large cheetah, was at the chief's door. His left paw behind his back of his head, signaling his embarrassment. "So, you wanted to help chief? He will be at the highest and luxurious apartment in Zootopia, 20 blocks down the Downtown. I believe the apartment name is 'The Higher Reign'. I wish I have that apartment…" The cheetah starts daydreaming.

"Thanks for the address, Spots." Nick thanked Benjamin for the address. The duo move past the cheetah, who still daydreaming, towards their car. As the duo move towards their car, which is a red convertible Mercedes-Benz SLK Brabus (R171), custom made to create as a sedan, the duo spotted the silver car again.

"Is that our suspect car?" Judy asked. Moments later, a red van with sticker on its side, 'Finnick's Pizza' is seemed to be following the silver car by 5 cars length.

"And is that Finnick's van, following the silver car? What is he doing?" Nick answered Judy's question with question.

"Something about to go down, Nick. Let's follow them." Nick nodded and enters the car. Judy starts the car and follows them at a distance of half block.

Calvin POV

After the encounter with the cops, and driving on the sand (which my Nissan GT-R is doing fine), I finally reach the Palm Hotel. I take my car towards a car wash to clean up the sand. After the cleanup, I cruised down the Sahara Square. I feel like in Dubai as there are a lot of sport and super car on the road of Sahara Square, not to mention countless limousines converted as a cab in the vicinity of Palm Hotel. There is a lot of activity going on in Sahara Square. I could have sworn that I saw an elephant jumping out from low altitude plane, straight towards the pool of Palm Hotel as proven by a big splash of water. Moments later, an ambulance arrived at the hotel. I hope the elephant is okay after that idiotic action of jumping out of an airplane, straight towards the pools of Palm Hotel. I continue my cruise towards a high rise luxurious apartment, 'The Higher Reign' in Savanna Central. There are only three occupants at the top floor, John Doe's inherited apartment, Gazelle's penthouse, and returned Mayor Lionheart's so called 'the lion's den' after his shattered image from the Night Howler incident. He may had won the Zootopian's heart after his confession in a campaign, returning his right to rule the Zootopia, but loses to a fox by landslide, not to mention the first fox as Mayor of Zootopia who is inspired by Nick Wilde, the first fox police officer. His motto is still the same, but extended, 'Anyone can be anything if everyone deserved a second chances'.

Anyway, as I cruise down in Savanna Central, ten blocks away from the apartment, I almost hit a fennec fox, jumping into a van, which clearly over-sized to him when I turn into a corner. He was opening the door as I pass by him, unnoticed the mammals jumping in the van. Damn, he really has a big voice for a small mammal like him. I never knew it was Finnick as I've disable the notification on my watch (which really annoying me as John Doe keep yapping me). I never knew this would be a gathering in John's apartment.

Finnick POV

A perfect day for pizza delivery. I am a manager of my new pizzeria under my own name; that is after being hustled by my only friend, Nicholas Piberius Wilde. I still don't rely on other mammals sending pizza. I'm preferred to send it myself. Each morning, I have to send my pizza toward my constant customer; one of which reside on the top floor of the grand apartment in Zootopia, 'The Higher Reign'. It is one of Gazelle home, after all. I send her favorite pizza every 7. I opened my pizzeria at 8. But I never return back towards that same apartment, twice, to reveal one of John Doe's houses. His racing enthusiasm has brought me into JDM culture; for I was one of his racing crew. I own pearlescent green Mazda MX5; still retaining a human size, custom made for me to reach the pedals, with ace of spade vinyl and complete upgrade. (NFS U2 and Carbon reference) I always wanted to use something bigger than what I can capable of. Even Nick never knew I was part of his team. Eventually, everything will unravel.

Anyway, I was taking another pizza delivery towards customer's houses. It was 10 in the morning. I really hate when someone drive without noticing someone like me, due to my miniature size. When I was about to open the door, a Nissan GT-R came out of nowhere, almost hitting me and my loaded van full of pizzas.

"HEY! WATCH WHERE YOU GOING! YOU LUCKY-"I stopped yelling. I glanced at the plate number of that silver car. Is that… John Doe's car? John Doe always have his plate number cars with initial 'JD', followed by car plate number. It's been three years since I last met him. I was his mechanic. That is my part of his racing team. My real job before he left me for his ridiculous adventure to another dimension. My curiosity takes over me. Three years, man, three LONG years without any races. I just can't take it. I glanced at my watch. "Damn it, I need someone to send the order." I spoke to myself.

I order one of my workers, who is a male antelope to send the order to customer's houses. He agreed, unloaded my van and placed it on his scooter. After that, I set my GPS towards the apartment on my watch, the very same watch John Doe given to me as some sort of dog tag in the military. I never explore much of the function of the watch; only the GPS and the time. This time it was different. After I set my GPS, it shows the map of Zootopia, zoomed down until the radius is 250m from my location. There is a red dot moving away from my precise location. It doesn't show his name, it shows 'Subject'. Then, a notification popped up on my watch, 'Just follow the subject. Don't do anything stupid. –John Doe-'.

I jumped into my van and start following the car. I put my distance of 5 cars length to avoid detection. The driver of the silver Nissan GT-R took its time to reach there, so was mine. We even pass the Precinct 1, where Nick and Judy currently working, the first fox and bunny officer in the force. Even they started to follow me and the silver car. I have a feeling that something about to go south. After reaching there, a figure came out from the car. Not a human, but a wolf. I too parked my van a few meter away from him. The 'wolf' walked into the lobby and straight to the elevator, taking him at the top floor. There is no one at the lobby. I follow him as well. My watch popped a notification again, 'Don't scare him. He is my subject. Whatever you do, protect him. –John Doe-'. After reaching the top floor, I saw him enters John Doe's apartment. A few seconds later, having guts to open the door, our eyes met, face to face. The 'wolf' wasn't a wolf; it was an unknown creature, aiming a handgun at me. I raised both my paws up in the air, slowly.

"Don't… move, Finnick." The creature spoke. I just nodded while trying to think how he got my name. "Get to the sofa. I got something to talk." I just follow everything he said, still aiming at me.

Calvin POV

I finally reach the apartment. It is indeed the highest and most luxurious apartment in Zootopia. I parked my car at the parking space for the residence of the apartment. As I almost get out of the car, my watch vibrates. A notification popped up, 'Don't get out first. A human in Zootopia will scared the shit out of everyone. Choose a cover; it will not alert the resident. –John Doe-'.

"Right, a cover. Which one will suit me?" I asked my watch.

'A wolf. A business wolf, like the movie 'Wolf of Wall Street'?'

"Yeah, right. Let's give it a try then." My phone popped up to life, with the app that shows wide selection of skins. I typed in 'Business wolf' in the search box. The result never ceases to amaze me. A nice looking wolf, obsidian fur blend with silver grey underbelly, white socks paws and silver grey tip tail, complete with tuxedo suit. I tapped the select button. I looked at myself. No change.

"Err, John? There is no change." I spoke to my watch.

'That is for your eyes. Look into the mirror. Quite handsome for my taste, especially the obsidian and silver grey fur blends together.' My watch popped the notification. I looked in the rear view mirror.

"Damn…" I smiled at 'myself'. That's the only word I can get it out.

I am not seeing my own original look. The wolf look at me seems like myself. Handsome, attractive, and could melt any female canine hearts at any moments. I tilted my head sideways, showing my cheek, the reflection does the same. The eyes color stays the same as mine; brown, which brings some Asian traits at the wolf. I decided to put some test. I stroke my hair sideways, the wolf does the same. I raised my hand; the wolf does the same, showing its paw. I spread my five fingers; the wolf does the same, showing four fingers at its paw instead of five. I smiled with exposed teeth; the wolf does the same, showing its dangerous but sexy teeth. Now for emotional test; I smiled, the wolf smiled back, ears forwards. I frowned, ears flat. I snapped my finger at a distance, my wolf's ears reflex towards the source of sound. Perfect. I feel like an undercover agent. I get out of my car, scanning my surrounding. My watch popped up someone on the GPS map; Finnick, 15m away, southwest. I glanced towards that direction and my expectation is true; a red van with sticker on its side, 'Finnick's Pizza', a dead giveaway. I acted natural, as I was a businessman. I get into the lobby and straight for the elevator since the receptionist wasn't there (thanks for John Doe shuts off the Wi-Fi, which really made the receptionist angry). I prepare my handgun I get from John Doe's apartment from Rainforest District because I have a feeling that something about to go down, hard. I reached the top floor and go straight towards the door, unlocked by John Doe's app. I disable my cover as soon I closed the door and take a look at the mirror to see myself reverted back to… my real self. Moments later, the door opened, showing a beige fennec fox. I quickly withdrew my gun, pointing at him.

"Don't… move, Finnick." He raised his paw, eyes wide, nodded slowly. "Get to the sofa. I got something to talk."

Cliffhanger? Yes and no. Multiverse theory. I may have put a cliffhanger here, but in other dimension, I may have not put a cliffhanger, or never create this fanfic at all. Or even better, I am in Zootopia right now, living the fanfic I wrote just now. Oc in review or pm. New update and chapter coming up.
