CONTENT WARNING:
This chapter contains guns and violence and some of the chapters after that aswell, but I'm not sure if I should bump up the rating to T.
Hey Fanfictionistas (Is what I'm going to be calling you now, well unless you don't like it). This chapter, I'm going to looking at how powerful Judy can be and Nick's reaction to it. Also I'm adding some comedic vibes to the story, as I think it would enhance the chapter, a bit (I hope).
Also, let me know if you want a chapter a week or every two like I am doing now.
Thats it for me and I hope you enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 5: The Masion in The Meadows.
As the van neared the meadowlands, Finnick said. "I hope you know what you're getting into". He warned the two, while focusing on the road aswell.
"We do, but it's our job to serve and protect this city". Judy positively replied.
The sunny day when they had left savannah central, had filled up with ominous looking clouds as they pulled up a few hundred yards away from the mansion.
"Look". The fennec spoke up. "Nick, Judy. You might not like this but er', well, see for yourself". Finnick hopped out of the van and opened the back to reveal multiple guns, from pistols, to shotguns.
"Woah". Nick was amazed he had never seen this before, while Judy's face was filled with rage. He had all these guns from the black market, just strewn across the van like this. She thought to herself. She wanted to arrest the fennec, but he was helping the job a lot. So she let him off... Again.
"Hey can I take this one?". Nick asked, looking at a Golden Eagle like a kit in a toy store.
"No, That one's mine". The fennec said not wanting any paws touching it.
"Okay". The red fox replied. reaching for a 9mm handgun instead.
"I guess I'll take this one". Judy said, while grabbing a desert eagle and a silencer, which she attached to the weapon as soon as she found out how.
Finnick looked at the size of the gun compared to the rabbit, he grinned however decided not to say anything, as a suprise.
"So, we ready to go?". Judy asked Nick.
"As ready as I'll ever be, Carrots". The red fox responded.
They two held paws as they started creeping towards the mansion.
Finnick chose to stay and said. "I'll be your getaway driver just in case". Keeping as close to his van as possible.
Judy smirked at Finnick's attachment to his van, while still concentrating on the mission ahead. As they approached the colossal sized mansion, Nick noticed a crack in the woodwork, which would save them time trying to break in through one of the windows.
The fox signalled Judy to sneak in and scout forward to see if the coast was clear.
Before she snuck through she looked directly into his emerald green eyes and said. "I love you Nick".
Nick looked worried, as he feared he would never see those purple amethyst eyes ever again.
"I'll be fine". Judy reassured the fox and kissed him on the neck again. Before Nick could realize what could happen to her, she was already gone.
Nick poked his head through the gap in the wood, to see what was happening, but all he saw were a few bulls on the floor, groaning in pain. "Wow erm', ok". He said in amazement. Nick was genuinely suprised he had never seen that side of Judy before. It made even more intrested in her abilities.
The astonished fox heard the sound of the front door opening and sure enough, Judy was there, thumping her foot on the ground. "What took you so long". She giggled.
"That was amazing, how did you do that?". The stunned fox asked in awe.
"I am more than just a carrot farmer you know". She replied. "Anyway let's go, we still gotta find that hyena".
"Oh yeah, right". Nick struggled to say, while looking at the defeated bulls once again.
"C'mon, if we get upstairs we might be able to find a computer and locate where this hyena is". Judy commented, as she ran towards the oversized staircase.
"Hey wait up". Nick said, trying to catch up with the swift rabbit.
When Nick was next to her, she signalled the fox to scout the area and look for a computer. However she said. "Be prepared to engage and remember, find it by any means necessary".
"Got it". Nick replied. He snuck up the staircase and as he reached the top, he looked around to see no bulls, or any animals for that matter. It seemed too quiet to be true, could there be an ambush. He thought to himself. Hmm... I better be careful, sneak around the side maybe? No, too dangerous, they might see me through the doorway on the right. However after a few more seconds, the cunning fox concocted a plan to hug the wall on the right, climb onto the doorframe and hop into the office chair. "Perfect". The sly fox muttered as he slid down a few stairs to give Judy the paws up.
"Good going there partner". Judy complemented the fox.
The two clambered to the top of the stairs as Nick imformed the rabbit about the plan of action.
"Okay, you go first and I'll follow". Judy stated.
"Got it". Nick responded. Midway through his excellent plan he heard a mysterious voice say in the distance. "Hey, did you hear that".
"I don't know, go check it out". another faint voice replied.
Nick heard footsteps that were growing closer and closer. soon enough, there was an 9ft bovine bull just beneath him. The bull scanned the area and walked away in disbelief.
Judy let out a sigh of relief, that her partner was safe. Nick hopped down from the top of the doorframe and clambered onto the premium office chair. Nick thought to himself. Huh, i guess if you run a crime syndicate like this, you would have a chair this comfy. The distracted fox re-concentrated on the plan, while Judy scurried across the floor and then joining Nick on the luxury chair.
Nick was relived to see that the computer was running. At least that saved them time.
MEANWHILE:
On patrol, a wombat noticed Finnick's van in the distance and decides to investigate the vehicle.
The small fennec spots the wombat and climbs into the back of his van to retrieve a baseball bat.
As the wombat was unknowingly walking towards his demise, Finnick was holding the bat up ready to strike.
The wombat opened one of the back doors to the van, only to briefly see a baseball bat being swung towards him.
Knocked out, Mr Berdés' workman fell to the floor. However when the fennec checked his dog tags, he realized he had just knocked out one of his old crime buddies, Oswald. Desperate to cover the mess up, Finnick placed a blanket over the wombat's unconscious body hoping no one would see it.
IN THE MANSION:
Judy was searching through all the files she could find, but none were related to the missing mammal case, not even the crime sydicate at all. Just as they were about to stop searching and abort the mission, Nick noticed a hidden file, but when Judy tried looking through it there were only encrypted files. She had a thought and said. "If we can get these files back to the ZPD, we can decrypt them and find out where that hyena is".
"Great idea". Nick replied, while he searched his belt for a memory stick. "Aha". He said as he found a rectangular USB and proceeded to insert it into the pc.
He clicked send on the desktop and the files started to transfer over to the empty memory stick.
"Hey! Who goes there!". A bovine bull yelled down the corridor. Judy equipped her desert eagle, ready for combat, while The startled fox ducked under the desk for cover.
The bull shot a few warning bullets, but Judy knew they needed time to transfer all the files. So, she took aim and...
BANG! The kick that fired back on the rabbit nearly knocked her over.
Nick instinctively poked his head over the desk to see if Judy was okay and sure enough, she was fine. Looking back to the screen it was at sixty-seven prcent.
Another array of bullets were fired and when she heard of clicking chambers, she emptied her reserve magazine into the hallway trying to buy time for Nick.
"Carrots!". Nick shouted as he threw his handgun over to the rabbit.
Thanks Nick!". Judy replied. She fired a few more rounds into the mix of bulls.
"Argh!". An injured bull screeched in pain.
The rain of bullets stopped for a moment as the file transfer hit 98%, 99%, 100%. "Carrots, let's go!". Nick notified Judy.
"Okay, c'mon hurry!". Judy replied, ushering Nick to escape as fast as he could.
Nick ran to the staircase, impatiently waiting for the rabbit to join him.
Judy picked her moment and ran. halfway past the corridor, the same bull that Judy shot, fired back with a bullet that grazed her arm, burning her nearby fur to a crisp.
She fell to the ground next to the staircase, still in reach of Nick's grasp.
"Judy!". Nick shouted as he grabbed hold of the injured rabbit and noticed blood dripping down the side of her arm, where it was burned. Nick carried her downstairs and past the bulls on the ground, hoping that she would be alright. They ran out the front door and in the direction of Finnick's van.
Seeing the reaction to her injury, she was thankful to have such a caring fox as her partner. She struggled to gain enough energy to kiss his neck and say. "Thank you, Nick".
Finnick saw Nick carrying Judy, he knew something was wrong. He reached for the opposite door and pushed it open.
Nick carefully placed the rabbit onto the middle seat and worryingly said. "Judy's been shot".
"What! How serious is it?". The concerned fennec asked as his eyes widened, at the sight of blood dripping down her arm. This was his best friend's partner, he couldn't just stay out of it.
"Not too serious, I think. It's just a graze, burned her a bit, oh god, Carrots are you alright".
"Yeah yeah, I'm okay". Judy struggled to respond.
The fennec noticed multiple bulls storm out of the mansion, one of them warned the worried red fox. "We know where you live, Wilde!". Finnick reacted, and reversed out of the driveway.
Reaching the end of the private road, The fennec did a U turn and drove off as fast as he could into tundratown.
"I'm so sorry Carrots, it shouldn't have been you that got shot. Infact, we should have never taken that case, because I just can't stand you being being injured". Nick looked at the wound again, gulping at the sight of it.
Finnick was suprised that a tough guy such as Nick, could be so caring.
"Thanks Nick. But our job is to make the world a better place ". Judy said as she kissed his neck once again.
"Hey Nick, they know where you live, you need to find a safe house or they'll kill you, they'll kill her".
Nick gulped again, he knew he couldn't stand his partner getting hurt again, or being killed.
Finnick was cautious with what he said, he didn't want to worry him even more. The fennec looked back at the road, he was hoping that they wouldn't discover the unconscious wombat in the back. However, Nick was too focused on staying by Judy's side, all the way back to the ZPD.
