The baron sat on the other side quiet and motionless. The three stared at each other as the clock on his at the edge of his desk ticked the seconds away. Nick and Judy shared a glance, Judy could feel a nervous spike running up her spine. A voice in her head urge her to say something, another side of her ordered her to run away, anything to end this limbo she lingered in.\n\nThe baron licked his lips, sitting forward to rest his hands on the desk. His steel-gray eyes stared deep into Judy's soul. To her surprise, the stern face soften but only for a brief second. The baron opened the bottom drawer of his desk retrieving something. When he held up the item, both Judy and Nick flinched. It was a light-weight aluminum tranquilizer gun of a new design. The baron shifted it around so that the pair could view it from every angle it gleamed in the warm lighting of the room. He thumbed a switch on the side of it and the chamber popped open sending a familiar looking dart falling into his other hand.\n\n“Phraxus.” The baron mused, holding up the small dart made of the same material as the tranq gun.\n\nThe cartridge was roughly two inches long and half an inch in diameter. Inside the metal casing was a small tube filled with a purple liquid that matched the purple feather pompom attached to the end. Nick recognized it almost immediately, it was the same type he pulled out of Judy's chest. The sight of it caused Judy's nose to twitch in fear.\n\n“That's pretty and all, but what is it?”\n\nNick's Newsie's accent was spot on as usual. The mere sound of his nasally tone annoyed the baron, it was evident by the expression on his face. The way he glared at the fox as if he were trying to shoot daggers from his eyes.\n\n“I was hoping to field test the two of you before I showed this to you. It's the heart of my empire, the thing that will make everyone stop and notice.”\n\n“Phraxus, what does that mean?”\n\n“It's...a long story.”\n\n“Take your time, we're in no hurry.” Judy's accent got better the more she used it.\n\n“Not yet. Prove yourself to me first and I'll open the doors wide for you. I'll bring you into my flock and bath you in the glory within.”\n\n“What's the job?”\n\nThe baron slipped the dart back into the chamber and clicked it closed. “In an hour, the St. Myriand Hospital in Zootopia's center square will be closing off their tenth floor for renovations. I suggest you go there and gather...these items for me.”\n\nThe baron pulled a slip of paper from the center drawer sliding it across the desk towards the pair. Judy took the item and gave it a quick read over. The corners of her mouth dipping down before she looked back at the baron.\n\n“I don't get it, this stuff is all junk. It would be easier to steal this from a medical supply store.”\n\n“Yes, but stores have inventory lists making the items traceable, say the cops get involved. They would be made aware of what I'm stealing and then devise what I'm using the stuff for. I'd rather they stay in the dark.”\n\n“Wouldn't a hospital have the same type of inventory?” Nick questioned.\n\n“Normally yes, but with the renovations-”\n\n“It could be months before anyone notices them missing, that's genius.”\n\n“Precisely, Fiver.”\n\n“Do we get some of those really cool guns?”\n\nThe baron glared at Nick shaking his head. “Not yet. Let's see how you perform, now get out of here and don't come back until the job's done.”\n\n“Yes, sir.”\n\nThe pair got up hurrying out of the room, letting the door close behind them. They had just under and hour to get to the hospital, luckily, with the renovation they should only have a skeleton crew working that floor. The mission should be a cake walk but Judy had a feeling something was going to go wrong.\n\n***\n\nMuch to Judy's surprising, the operation had gone smoothly. Thanks to using the air ducts, Nick and Judy were able to make it through undetected. The hardest part was finding the right supply closet and getting in without making any noise. When they found all the equipment Nick and Judy loaded it up on a pair of black duffle bags, smaller and much easier to carry than the one they'd moved earlier. When everything was ready Nick and Judy slipped out of the room making a dash for the elevator. Once inside they didn't have much of a plan for the rest of the mission.\n\n“God, I hope this works.” Judy shifted nervously, Nick could see her muscles tensing.\n\n“It will be fine, what's the worse that could happen.”\n\n“We get arrested and fail our mission.”\n\n“That won't happen, I mean you did make the call to Bogo, right?”\n\n“Yeah, but he didn't answer so I had to leave a message.”\n\n“He's the chief of police, I'm sure he's got everything under control. You keep that up and you'll worry yourself gray.”\n\n“Too late.” Judy forced a chuckle.\n\nThe numbers above the chrome doors clicked down one by one. Nick hummed along with the soothing piano music that sounded a bit too loud for the small compartment. Nick's calm demeanor only seem to stress Judy out more. Three...two...one. There was a quiet ding and the doors slid open. Nick played it cool but he half expected to see the entire ZPD force waiting for them in the lobby. Instead, there was only a security guard at his desk reading a comic book and a mole custodian trying to get his floor-waxer to work.\n\n“See.”\n\n“One of these days you're going to be wrong, I just hope I'm there to see it.”\n\nNick strutted through the main hall like he owned the place. Judy stayed close still not confident in the ease of their escape. When they reached the guard's desk the bobcat didn't look away from his comic, not noticing the two odd-looking visitors toting full duffle bags. Nick looked back at Judy and winked at her as he leaned into the rotating door. Judy hurried so she could ride in the same wedge as Nick. They were greeted with the cool night air calling them to freedom.\n\n“Let's get-”\n\n“Freeze, scum!”\n\nNick turned and saw a large rhino in a police uniform aiming his tranq gun at them. McHorn, Nick grumbled, his instincts taking over, The fox bolted away, Judy was already in front of him having noticed the cops almost a second before Nick had. The medical bags were heavy, cumbersome to maneuver, but there was no going back now and there was no way they could turn themselves in. Failure was not an option.\n\n“Train!” Judy panted.\n\n“Good idea, up ahead to the left.”\n\nWhen they rounded the corner Judy pointed to the train station up ahead. She darted across the street and between two cars. Nick was hot on her heels. Charging right behind them running as fast as he could, McHorn was panting so loudly Nick could judge his distance. Lucky, for them the Rhino was slower, giving them an ample head start that only seemed to be growing.\n\nOn the other hand, McHorn was armed and one of the best shots in the ZPD. The bite of a tranq dart on the inside of his thigh caused Nick the yelp, stumbling a few steps before he regained his full speed run. In the same instance, his other thigh snapped up, breaking the dart leaving the pin stuck inside his leg. Judy was outrunning him now as each step felt like a fire burning in his leg. His vision was starting to black out at the edges of his eyes. He wanted to call to her to slow down, but he couldn't get enough oxygen in his lungs to make a sound. Then he saw her, she turned and noticed he was falling behind. Salvation, he thought but then the world turned upside down. The pavement rushing up to meet him, biting and clawing at his shoulder and hip. He slid to a stop against a car tire. Through his hazy vision, he could see a white wolf in a cop uniform approaching. He'd been blindsided and now all was lost.\n\n“Get away!”\n\nJudy's accent was enough to draw his eyes to find her. Her tiny body flew through the air as she planted both feet into the wolf's chest. She fell back on the concrete but rolled to get back to her feet. What happened to the wolf, Nick wondered. He was gone from his field of vision, but he doubted that Fangmeyer was gone altogether. Judy grabbed Nick by his arm pulling him to his feet.\n\n“Get up, love. We gotta go.”\n\nAnother dart whizzed by, sticking in the bag on Nick's back. The force of the dart caused something to shatter inside the bag, which was better than sticking in his shoulder where it had intended to go. Judy used her surprising strength to pull the fox along. She grabbed her bag from where she left it on their way passed.\n\n“I'm going numb,” Nick warned.\n\n“Not on my watch, the train is just ahead. Once we make it you can sleep for as long as you want.”\n\n“Promise.”\n\n“I'll spoon you myself.”\n\nNick did his best to ignore the burning pain in his thigh as he pumped his arms and legs as fast as they would go. He could see a smile stretch on Judy's face. A wild and free look, unhampered by rules and regulations. She was having fun with this, even in Nick's hazy thoughts he couldn't help but be happy for her.\n\nThe train's door closed as it starting chugging away. Nick and Judy ducked and dodged around passengers waiting patiently to get through the turnstile. But the two vigilantes had no such luxury as time. They pushed their way through, jumping the mechanized arms and driving towards the train. Mammals flailed and fell all around them like dominoes. Nick wanted to apologize, but he had no breath left to waste with pleasantries. They were doing important work and that would have to be enough for them.\n\n“Stop them!”\n\nFangmeyer yelled from behind them, two mammals dressed in security guard uniforms emerged from their booth converging on the pair. Judy dropped down as one tried to grab her, gracefully she darted in front of Nick hammering both her palms into the other guard sternum. The angle and the force knocking him back. It was like a ballet, except more violence. It was something he'd never seen before. Top of her class had a new meaning to him now, small but mighty. Without missing a beat she was back to leading him to the train.\n\nThe last car was sliding by, but she grabbed the edge propelling herself over the railing at the back. She turned holding her hand out for Nick. Nick pumped as hard as he could reaching out to her, his lungs felt like they were going to explode.\n\n“Come on!”\n\nNick reached for her, feeling her soft hands close around his before she pulled with all her might. Nick flew hard into the back door of the train and slid down to sit on his backside. The train pulled away from the station he could see McHorn give them a thumbs up, before slapping Fangmeyer on the shoulder. Nick's eyes were closing by themselves, they only opened when he felt something tugging on him. He opened his eyes to see Judy's worry stricken face. She worked hard pulling him into the back train car. Everything seemed to be swimming in his head and then blackness again.\n\n***\n\nJudy ignored the aching in her legs and the pounding of her heart. She pulled the bag from Nick's shoulder before propping him up on an old freight blanket she found folded in the corner. Her fingers searched his body, she knew he'd been shot, but the dart wasn't there anymore. Finding the entry wound would be next to impossible.\n\nThat's when she saw the tear on the inside of his pant leg, near his thigh. Judy blushed and leaned down trying to find it. The needle was barely sticking out of the wound but at least, she found it. Quickly she worked, trying to bite the needle with her bucked teeth but the pants kept shifting in the way, covering her nose forcing her to pull away so she could breathe.\n\n“Oh Nick, sorry you have to be asleep for this one. You'd never let me live this down.” Judy pulled the suspenders down over his shoulders, her fingers fighting with the button on his pants.\n\nJudy pulled Nick's pants down over his hips fighting to get them all the way off. She turned Nick's leg so she could get a better look at the bruised wound. After shifting her fingers through his fur she managed to find the wound again. She bit down on the area, using her bucked teeth to flex the muscle, hoping that the needle would come out. Nick shifted, gritting his teeth at the feeling of her teeth biting. There it was, she bit down on it, pulling the inch long needle from his leg. When she sat back her eyes met with a young train attendant. The squirrel had a look of terror in his eyes as he held up his hands.\n\n“You can't be in here!”\n\nJudy reached for her badge, cursing herself for not bringing it. With no other option, she spit the needle on the floor, resting her hand on the small of her back miming a motion that looked like she may pull a gun. The attendant shifted a few steps away.\n\n“Get out! Forget what you saw, ya hear?”\n\nThe attendant nodded and retreated through the small hatch built into the door. Judy was impressed that it worked at all, quickly she when back to work. Putting her lips to the wound, sucking as hard as she could. Nick moaned and shifted his head from side to side trying to wake up from the drug induced haze. If she could remove even a few drops, it would keep Nick from passing out completely. When she sat back on her heels she spat the mixture of serum, blood, and saliva onto the floor of the train. Her face was hot from running, from blushing after being so forward with Nick's body. A sigh of relief washed over her when she saw one of his eyes open a sliver.\n\n“I wanted to make a 'while you're down there' joke, but I was way too late.”\n\n“Shut up, Nick.” Judy laughed, wiping her forehead with the back of her hand.\n","writing_bbcode_parsed":"<span style='word-wrap: break-word;'>Breaking and Entering<br /><br />Back in the baron&#039;s office Nick and Judy sat in the luxurious leather chairs in front of the desk.

You&#039;d never let me live this down.&rdquo; Judy pulled the suspenders down over his shoulders, her fingers fighting with the button on his pants.<br /><br />Judy pulled Nick&#039;s pants down over his hips fighting to get them all the way off. She turned Nick&#039;s leg so she could get a better look at the bruised wound. After shifting her fingers through his fur she managed to find the wound again. She bit down on the area, using her bucked teeth to flex the muscle, hoping that the needle would come out. Nick shifted, gritting his teeth at the feeling of her teeth biting. There it was, she bit down on it, pulling the inch long needle from his leg. When she sat back her eyes met with a young train attendant. The squirrel had a look of terror in his eyes as he held up his hands.<br /><br />&ldquo;You can&#039;t be in here!&rdquo;<br /><br />Judy reached for her badge, cursing herself for not bringing it. With no other option, she spit the needle on the floor, resting her hand on the small of her back miming a motion that looked like she may pull a gun. The attendant shifted a few steps away.<br /><br />&ldquo;Get out! Forget what you saw, ya hear?&rdquo;<br /><br />The attendant nodded and retreated through the small hatch built into the door. Judy was impressed that it worked at all, quickly she when back to work. Putting her lips to the wound, sucking as hard as she could. Nick moaned and shifted his head from side to side trying to wake up from the drug induced haze. If she could remove even a few drops, it would keep Nick from passing out completely. When she sat back on her heels she spat the mixture of serum, blood, and saliva onto the floor of the train. Her face was hot from running, from blushing after being so forward with Nick&#039;s body. A sigh of relief washed over her when she saw one of his eyes open a sliver.<br /><br />&ldquo;I wanted to make a &#039;while you&#039;re down there&#039; joke, but I was way too late.&rdquo;<br /><br />&ldquo;Shut up, Nick.&rdquo; Judy laughed, wiping her forehead with the back of her hand.<br /></span>","pools_count":0,"title":"Zootopia: Underworld Chapter 12","deleted":"f","public":"t","mimetype":"text/rtf","pagecount":"1","rating_id":"0","rating_name":"General","ratings":[],"submission_type_id":"12","type_name":"Writing - Document","guest_block":"f","friends_only":"f","comments_count":"1","views":"45","sales_description":null,"forsale":"f","digitalsales":"f","printsales":"f","digital_price":""}
