This is the 5th chapter of the story. I made this chapter longer so that the readers would like to know more on my official OC named Splero. Anyway, please enjoy reading this chapter!
Chapter 5 - First Days In The ZPD Part 1
Following the moment of Splero's recognition with the first officials, Chief Bogo, Nick and Judy spread the word about the vigilante's work in saving vixen Michelle and in apprehending the monkey suspect. At first, the occupants throughout the ZPD Headquarters never could believe to the story but as time continued on, the officials and other occupants of the establishment reviewed it with "positive" feedbacks. After that, the ZPD officials gave the monarch a few vital things...His new cadet uniform, a ZP ID Badge and a book entitled "ZPD Basics".
"Well...since this will be your very moment to join the ZPD, you will going to attend the ZPD's "Martial Training Program" for a few weeks or months." - Nick said -
"By the way, the program is a new one since more new cadets were now enlisting themselves for the entire law and peace system of Zootopia. Not only that, Chief Bogo actually started this program so that the cadets will be trained quickly in order to quell the booming crime issues." - Judy added -
"Ok, I get it now." - Splero replied, still carrying his new materials -
"Are you going to put those things down or what?" - Nick reassured -
"I'm going to put these down on my new cubicle but the question is: where's my new cubicle?" - Splero replied with a solid question -
The fox and bunny looked throughout the entire second floor of the building. They finally spots an empty cubicle, just a few rows away to their very cubicles.
"There's your new cubicle, Sire." - Nick said, pointing his paw on the said direction -
"Wait a minute. His cubicle was in range with ours, Nick." - Judy realized -
"Now that's a good advantage, guys. With that, I can see you both during my work hours." - Splero remarked with a clear smile on his face -
Nick and Judy snickered on his remark. After Splero places his items on his cubicle, he took hold his new uniform.
"Excuse me, guys. I'm going to change my clothes." - Splero said -
He then went to the vacant washrooms. Nick and Judy then arranged Splero's belongings.
"This will be the first time that a human could join the ZPD ranks." - Judy said -
"Yeah, it is true indeed. I wonder what will the public could respond to this new "event" today." - Nick replied -
As they arranged his belongings, Michelle approaches them.
"Excuse me, guys." - Michelle said -
Nick caught her attention.
"Yes, Miss?" - Nick asked -
"Is the vigilante named Splero was around?" - Michelle answered with a question -
"He's changing his clothes in the gentlemen washrooms. Why?" - Nick responded -
"I-I wanted to thank him for what he did to me earlier." - Michelle said -
Splero then returned. He was now wearing the new standard-issued ZPD uniform but the monarch still wore the "official" royal beret on his head.
"Hey, guys. I'm back on my new snazzy duds!" - Splero remarked -
"Wow! You looked awesome in that uniform, Splero." - Nick exclaimed -
"Aw shucks. Thanks, Nick." - Splero replied, blushed -
"By the way, Michelle is looking for you. Good thing you returned." - Judy reminded him -
Splero turned his head and he saw Michelle. Her presence caught his attention.
"Hello there, miss. Is there's anything that I can do for you?" - Splero responded -
Michelle clears her throat.
"I-I wanted to thank you for what you did to me from the docks earlier today." - Michelle thanked him -
"Pleasure, Miss Michelle. I just wanted to serve and protect the fellow Zootopians for my very sake." - Splero replied while he gave her a usual handshake with his gloved hand -
Michelle giggled on. She then continues.
"Anyway, can I ask for your telephone number? I wanted to know about you soon after." - Michelle requested -
Nick and Judy was surprised to hear that. They never heard that before.
"Sure, Michelle." - Splero replied -
He then took his wallet and gave her a card that contains his telephone numbers.
"These were my telephone numbers, miss. Both of them were either home or work sources, by the way." - Splero replied with a smile -
"Thanks. I'll call you when I have time soon." - Michelle thanked him again -
"Your welcome. Take care, Michelle." - Splero replied with a good bye -
"I will. Thanks, everyone!" - Michelle bids a goodbye before she left -
Nick grins then snickered.
"Why are you snickering, Nick?" - Splero asked -
"Nothing, Splero." - Nick replied, still suppressing his snickers -
Splero shrugged his shoulders.
"Oh well. That's that." - Splero said to himself -
This is the end of Chapter 5. Splero was finally recruited by the ZPD due to his vigilant and heroic acts. He also made a few good relationship standings with Nick, Judy and Michelle as well with the other ZPD officials. Stay tune for Chapter 6, everyone!
