Authors Note
Welcome to Chapter Two! For now on, Chapters will be coming out Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays! They will be coming out at 2pm Eastern Standard Time. (You may google to figure out when that is on your own time.) I was going to do Sundays and Wednesdays, but decided for the best that it would be better to keep the momentum of this going!
I should say that I know, that fight was a little bit rushed. Buut, Over reacting does that to girls don't you think? (Awaits the hate in a sea of crickets) Anyways... I don't have much of JudyXNick Development in this chapter, but Chapter 3 will certainly have some great juicy scenes of NickxJudy, since that seems to get people going!
"Good Afternoon Zootopia!" Began the Mayor of Zootopia with his booming deep voice, "As a proud Mayor of our glorious city, it is my duty to announce our new officers as the months go by. Our most recent officer, Who was the top of her class at the Zootopia Police Academy. ZPD's very fist Hybrid officer, Amelia Tigersworth!" He finished as he looked to the Chiger and bowed lightly to her, and Amelia did the same.
Since it was Judy that helped save Amelia from the hostage situation just a month ago, Amelia picked Judy to officially give her badge. Lionheart gave Judy the box that contained her badge. To which the Rabbit walked up to the tiger and she opened the box slowly, and then pulled the badge out, setting the box at her feet as Amelia knelt down to receive the badge.
At the same time Judy spoke to her as she pinned the badge neatly to the Chiger's uniform "Ready to make the world a better place?"
Amelia smiled softly and said "You bet!" But still whispering so no one heard, and Judy smiled as she finished placing the badge on her, and backed up picking the box back up and closing it.
Judy then looked at Amelia and instantly stood at attention and gave her a salute, to which Amelia did as well and then they both relaxed as Judy gave the box back to Lionheart, to which he placed it on the podium and then began to speak again.
"Thank you Judy." He began, and then continued "Amelia Tigersworth, it is my great pleasure along with Chief Bogo to assign you to Precinct One, City Center!" He finished off, and everyone in the audience clapped as the media began taking pictures with The Mayor, and Amelia together along with Judy by their side.
It was probably Amelia's happiest day in her life, and she was officially and officer. Where people wouldn't look at her and make fun of her. Where they wouldn't intimidate her, but she would intimidate him. Though with great power, comes great responsibility. And she was going to make sure to make a world a better place, just like Judy said!
The following morning, Amelia arrived at the Police Station, and was instantly greeted by Clawhauser who was very happy to greet the new recruit. He shook her hand quite quickly as the chubby kitty met the Chiger. He's never honestly met a hybrid before. Though he did his best to not stereotype, or make any gestures that might otherwise be rude. He didn't want Amelia's first impression of him to be 'The cat that called her something degrading or stereotypical' Like with Judy.
"Good morning Amelia! Welcome to the ZPD!" Clawhauser spoke enthusiastically and even offered Amelia a doughnut.
Amelia smiled at Clawhauser's nice gesture and accepted the doughnut "Thank you Clawhauser." She spoke softly and smiled again.
Clawhauser smiled cutely and then saw Judy walked in and instantly greeted her "Oh, Hi Judy!" He spoke up causing Amelia to turn around quickly to see Judy coming in and she smiled at the two of them.
"Hey guys!" She spoke as she hopped up and gave Clawhauser a fist bump and sat on the counter so she was mostly eye level with them. Plus they still have a few minutes before the meeting so she would chat with them instead of waiting around, or she used to talk to Nick before the incident. But now. Eh..
Just then Judy looked at the door seeing Nick walking in, but she looked away after the initial look as she went to grab a carrot doughnut that Clawhauser always gets her. She smiled at Clawhauser and nodded as a thank you for the doughnut and then the three chatted for maybe a few minutes before Clawhauser looked at the time and said "You two better get going, it's meeting time." He spoke.
Judy and Amelia nodded heading away from Clawhauser after they said their good byes. Judy directed Amelia to the Bull Pen where they would have a meeting every morning.
At least two minutes after Judy and Amelia arrived and took their seats, Chief Bogo came in and began the daily routine. "Alright. Two items on the docket. First thing's first. New recruit. Amelia Tigersworth." He spoke and that was it and went onto number two "Alright. Second thing, is that we have a report of a street race going on between 4 different cars across all of the biomes. Two teams will go out to stop them." He finished.
Bogo then began calling out groups. "Officers, McHorn, Wilde." He first started "You'll be taking Sahara Square" He spoke, and then named off a few more until Finally it was Judy and Amelia who were left.
"Officers... Hopps, and Tigersworth.. Since Tigersworth is new, you Hopps. Will be taking her around, showing her real field work, and stopping any crime you happen to see." He finished off, and Judy gave a pretty confident nod and looked over at Amelia and smiled, to which Amelia smiled back.
Judy took Amelia to her squad car. She just got a new partner, finally! It's been nearly a month since she was able to get a new partner. Though she had to know that this was not Nick, and she would have to get used to plenty of things.
The day in it's self was pretty light, though Judy got to know Amelia pretty well since the hostage situation, and now a little bit more since they are partners today. Though it was all a matter of when things will go down to depict how Amelia will react to a situation. Judy just hoped that would happen soon...
Since it was noon, and Judy was already starving as it is, they decided to head to a quick fast-food location to get something to eat. As they were eating, Judy decided to talk to Amelia a little bit more.
"So.. In your situation a month ago, were you pretty confident that we would find you?" Judy first asked Amelia.
Amelia looked at Judy, and then swallowed the food she had in her mouth and began to speak "Yeah. Well, Sort of... I was kind of nervous you wouldn't notice anything at all." She spoke with a light nervous chuckle.
"Well. We did notice, thankfully! You helped out greatly with the case." Judy responded back and smiled at Amelia.
Amelia gave a simple nod, and a smile in return.
"What was it like in that situation?" Judy then asked.
Amelia took a few seconds to think about what to say and then said "It's like being in an interrogation, and you're the one being interrogated. Though you already have cuffs on you, and you can't respond." She spoke, thinking for a moment. "They kept talking about a lot of things..." She spoke softly that time and Judy looked around and then said,
"What things..?"
"Weird things... They kept calling someone named Augusta Chao... I don't know who he was, but there were plenty of times when the Tigers were nervous to call him about updates." Amelia finished and Judy raised an eyebrow.
The name sounded familiar. Augusta Chao... Judy thought for a moment and then went to finish her lunch. Kind of quicker than before.
Amelia didn't know what to do then, wondering if she said the right then she felt nervous again. It was her first day, and she didn't want anything to go wrong...
Judy finished up her meal finally, and then asked Amelia "Alright... Augusta Chao... What else did the Tigers say about him?" She asked and Amelia perked up.
"They didn't say much else... well... Actually, one tiger called him a Bamboo eating prick. Which was a little funny." Amelia spoke and chuckled a little bit.
Judy chuckled slightly too, but she needed to know more. So once Judy knew Amelia was done. They both went back to the Squad car and headed back to the police headquarters.
Once they were back. Judy had Clawhauser pull up case files against Augusta Chao. Even Clawhauser was a bit surprised upon the question, but pulled them up anyways.
There were five different cases, all dating back to nearly 15 years ago. They were old, with no leads. So it was more interesting than anything to find these cases.
Judy and Amelia looked at each other as they looked through the case files. They all had the same basic idea. Someone was kidnapped, but they were never found and are now presumed dead. Not only that, but these cases were mostly affiliated with the cooperation of the ZPD and the ZBI.
