Here's chapter 60. This chapter focuses on characters from Zootopia.
After Finnick had finished the call he had received earlier, he stayed in the room to watch television, not because he was bored and had nothing better to do, but because he wanted to find out if there was anything else they could find out from the news. Perhaps there could be more information about Sonic and the others or if even from then on there would be any other changes. He had been watching every local channel in the country, but there was nothing. Most of the channels were now running their normal programming. Like for example cooking shows, TV series, animated series, game shows that were obviously repeated, talk shows, but nothing out of the ordinary. And those who had news, only showed repetitions of the press conference with comments from the presenters of said programs. Other than that, nothing new.
If it wasn't for the fact that it had been decided that they would all stay together, he himself would have gone out to find more information in the streets, and even go to where the Mobius heroes were staying. But because he could still be recognized from what happened over the weekend, they decided not to leave the hotel. What's more, a few minutes ago Bogo and Clawhauser had come to see them after seeing the report. They called Nick and Judy first, and when Nick and Judy told them they were at the hotel, they went there to make sure everyone was okay. Jack had already told them that some people from the government were coming to talk to the group so it was better not to leave there. So while most adults were talking about various aspects and Finnick was looking for something new on TV, Clawhauser was playing with the children in a room that these were the police and he, the thief they had to capture.
In Nicole and Jerry's game against Clawhauser, Clawhauser pretended he had a bag of money, but what was actually inside was some of the children's toys. Nicole and Jerry were chasing him to catch him, and they had some water pilots for that matter, to spray him, at one point when he was wet by the water he threw himself on the ground and began to feign agony thanks to the supposed "shot" he received . Both children reached out and took the bag of toys and held it up in the air in victory. At that moment Clawhauser got up and took both children in his arms congratulating them on their victory. Both children began to laugh as the cheetah circled around the room, finally dropping onto one of the beds, but gently so as not to inadvertently hurt the children. They were still laughing at that time. If it weren't for his height and age, anyone who saw them would think that Clawhauser would be just another kid there.
"That was so much fun, Uncle Clawhauser," Nicole said when she was done laughing.
"Yeah, we could play one more game with you?" Jerry said agreeing with his twin half-sister.
Both children made puppy dog eyes, so the cheetah couldn't refuse, after thinking for a moment they decided to play Clawhauser hiding some toys, while Nicole and Jerry played detectives who could find each and every one of them. The cheetah left easy clues so that the vixen and the rabbit could locate each toy throughout the entire hotel room. It didn't take them long to find them. One was under a bed, one was in one of the suitcases they brought for the trip, one was in the closet, one was in a drawer of one of the furniture, and the last one was under one of the pillows on a different bed where was the first.
"Well done, children" said Clawhauser seeing that they had succeeded.
"Thank you very much, Uncle Clawhauser" replied Nicole and Jerry.
Clawhauser took a moment to listen to what was happening in the other room, he could hear that Finnick had rejoined the rest of the adults. In a moment there had been a silence that seemed motivated by concern, so the cheetah came up with an idea to lift their spirits.
"Kids, how about we tell your parents, your grandparents, Uncle Finnick and Uncle Bogo about how you managed to win our games," Clawhauser said.
The children nodded excitedly. So the three of them left the room and went straight to the living room.
Once they got there, Clawhauser could really sense that the atmosphere was serious, so he encouraged the children to go tell the other adults about the games and how much fun they had. While that was happening Clawhauser momentarily into another room to serve himself to a bowl of cereal. Clawhauser was prepared, since before leaving his hotel, he had brought a box of cereal with a little milk to eat them in case of what for him could be an emergency. He didn't take long, since it wasn't the hardest thing to prepare. Once he was ready, he returned to the room, where he saw that his plan worked, the children cheered the adults up while he continued telling about how they won the play.
"Well, I see where they inherited their taste for solving crimes and mysteries" Bonnie said and then looked at her daughter Judy.
"Maybe they can be police like Judy and Nick when they grow up," said Mrs. Wilde.
"Or secret agents like Jack," Stu said.
"Or they could even have their own independent detective agency," Finnick said.
"If they make the choice to be a police officer, I could take care of their training in the police department myself," Bogo said.
"If they choose to be secret agents I could make some arrangements for them to join the same agency I work for," Jack said.
"And tell me, which of the things we mentioned would you like to be when you grow up?" Nick said.
"Whatever you choose, we will support you," said Judy.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, finally both children looked at all the adults and each one said half of the answer.
"We want to be all that you mentioned at the same time," Nicole said with a smile.
"And we also want to be like Speed, Flora, Alex, Locke, Pachacamac, and their respective fathers. Being superheroes," said Jerry happily.
All the adults started laughing at the idea of the children. It was common that at their age they wanted to be all that, some of the adults when they were children had similar ideas of dedicating themselves to various things when they grew up, before dedicating themselves to what they currently did. Although the superhero part was a bit more difficult to make happen, they weren't discouraged, as they knew that every child wanted to be one at some point in their life.
"Well, then we have in front of us the world's first cops/secret agents/detectives/super heroes. I think we should think about the name they will have when they are super heroes. How about Super Vixen and Super Rabbit" said Clawhauser putting the bowl of cereal on the table and carrying both children in his arms, causing them to laugh and accept the suggestion that their honorary uncle gave them for their future.
And so they spent the rest of the afternoon, talking about what the children could be in the future and even talked about their respective childhoods, with the exception of Finnick, who preferred to keep his childhood a secret from others, even from Nick, who still he didn't know the entire life of the fennec fox before they met him. His life would definitely be kept a mystery to almost every living thing on the planet with the exception of Skye, who wasn't even there, and Finnick didn't know where she was at the time. He was unaware that day she was in town briefly to get Knuckles and his family to the agency she worked for and then bring them back to town.
Already when it was dark, they would know that the time was approaching when some representatives of the prime minister would come to see them there, so they had to prepare. In order not to involve the children in this, they decided that the children would have dinner in their room, and they put the television there so that they could be distracted. Fortunately they were having a marathon of their favorite show, and when it was the case, they would get hooked on the television and act as if nothing around them existed. Although in other circumstances it would be somewhat worrying, in this situation it was the best solution to keep their minds on something else and not listen to the adults' conversation.
After a few seconds, someone started knocking on the bedroom door. They assumed they were the ones they were waiting for.
Jack walked up to the door and asked, "Who is it?"
"We are the representatives of the prime minister. We have come to see you" said one of the newcomers.
"We need your IDs to know it's true," said the striped rabbit.
Several cards were slipped under the door as evidence. Jack took out a device from his pants pocket and put the cards to confirm if they were real or not. He reviewed each of them and told the others "They are real. There is nothing to worry about."
Once he opened the door, the newly arrived people entered. Like the ones who fetched the Mobius heroes that morning to take them to the Prime Minister's home, these too were dressed in civilian clothes so as not to attract attention. One of those present brought a laptop and also brought a microphone so that everyone could speak and be heard; also a device to block communications in that room so that no one can detect the video call. Other than that, they wouldn't have anything else visible, though knowing Jack what security was like in many countries, perhaps they had their weapons well hidden in case they were needed. Once the door was closed, Jack handed back the identification cards that had been passed a few seconds ago to their respective owners. They began to check the entire perimeter of the living room so that there were no hidden cameras or speakers with a device that they brought, although they didn't enter the room where the children were, the devices didn't detect anything unusual there.
Once they finished checking, Jack gave them a brief explanation as to why Bogo, Clawhauser, Stu, Bonnie and Mrs. Wilde were with them there and that they too know the situation and have already interacted with some of the mobians so are involved in this, though Eggman is unaware of them. Understanding that explanation, the newcomers closed all the curtains in all the rooms, (the room where the children were was already closed before they arrived), turned on the laptop, connected the microphone and turned on the communication jammer device. After that they accessed the website where they would contact the prime minister.
After a few minutes of waiting, the prime minister appeared on the screen and bowed his head to them, everyone responded by bowing in the same way. The prime minister told them about the current situation and mentioned that they will be protected, there will be plainclothes guards watching over them, in case any problem occurs their duty will be to protect them if the mobians were not present at that time. All those things Jack already knew, but the others didn't, so I let him continue, but the last thing he said he didn't know, and that is that if they were really in greater danger, they would be taken out of Japan and back to Zootopia for them to be safe. He had even already arranged to get their belongings out of the hotel as well when that happened. He also told them that the townspeople who were in the restaurant that day will receive that same kind of protection, themselves and their families.
Hearing that, Nick, Judy, Jack and Finnick breathed a sigh of relief for their friends, although they wondered how they would take this news, or at least their relatives who had no knowledge of what could happen.
So far the chapter. I hope you liked it.
