I didn’t mean to bust your window...” Alex yipped. “Calm down....” Alex was thinking...”She’s gonna bite my face off!”\n\n The angry female Corgi pup stopped short and snapped...”What are you doing here Alex!”\n\n “Well? I was going to say something else but first I have to say sorry for trashing your window. I didn’t know you were home.” Alex said.\n\n “My gawd Pluto!” Morgan huffed. “That’s why there’s door bells dummy?”\n\n “I wasn’t sure you wouldn’t bite me for trying?” Alex said with a shrug. “Any way?....The real reason I came over was to say that I am very....very sorry for ripping your baseball jacket when we were six years old. Um....I think we were more concerned with jumping around in the mud back then than thinking how important and precious something that was given to you by your Dad was to you? But I realize now that... that jacket is super precious to you and I am so....so sorry that I ripped it.”\n\n Morgan pursed her lips...”Ok...thank you, I accept your apology now get off my lawn.”\n\n Morgan turned to go back inside but Alex cut her off...”What?” Morgan snorted. “You can go home now?!”\n\n Alex frowned...”Why do you hate me so much?! What else have I done to upset you Morgan?!”\n\n Morgan growled...”I just don’t like you ok? Now move!”\n\n Alex didn’t budge...”That’s not an answer Morgan. We used to play with each other all the time when we were puppies and now you hate my guts? I got my armed chewed up keeping Tiffany from beating your butt up so at least give me an honest answer?”\n\n Morgan got snoot to snoot with Alex...”I just don’t like you Alex Gray. I don’t like wolves period. It’s my right to chose who my friends are and you’re not on the consideration list so get off my yard, go home or I will sink my teeth into your stupid, flea bag wolf hide.”\n\n Morgan walked around Alex but suddenly felt his paw wrap around her arm!\n\n “You want to get hurt....don’t you?!” Morgan snapped.\n \n “Sigh”.....Alex stood shaking his head. “I know you don’t like wolves and I’m not ready to ask you why but I could use your help and I’d be willing to be your slave for a week if you’d help me out?”\n\n Morgan thought....”Hmmm? Ok? What kind of help are you asking for?” She asked Alex.\n\n Alex looked around then whispered into Morgan’s ear....\n\n “Whisper....Whisper, Whisper, whisp”\n\n “Are you kidding?” Morgan yelped.\n\n “Whisper....whisp”\n\n “That’s if he loses?” Morgan yelped again.\n\n “Whisper....whisp” “And that’s it.” Alex said. “If you can tolerate just a few minutes of having to be with me? You can watch my poor big brother cry at losing a bet and having to prance through the mall in a pair of Pampers.”\n\n Morgan snickered evilly. “To see your brother make a fool of himself? I’m gain! But?! Only this once! I’ll probably have to take a bath in super strong anti-flea soap after hanging around you.”\n\n Alex frowned...”Don’t think I’m going to feel any comfort from it myself....Save the humiliation of my poor big brother.”\n\n “Wanna go over right now?” Morgan asked. “I’ll get my bike. My Mom’s bringing Ako over so I need to call her before we go.”\n\n “I’ll just wait here.” Alex said as he leaned against his bike.\n\n “What? You afraid I’ll sneak attack bite you or something?” Morgan said with a shrug. “At least come in for a glass of water or a bag of Kibble treats? I’m not a total jerk.”\n\n “I’ve never called you a jerk.” Alex said. “A little bit difficult at times? But never a jerk.”\n\n[b]3:00PM\nHaru’s happiness flower and Socialation center\nSahara Beach[/b][b][/b]\n\n Haru the dwarf white rabbit female stopped in her walk around her gardens to inspect some Prim roses in their beds....\n\n “Aphids again? You little devils sure are suicidal.” Haru said as she grabbed her spray bottle of natural liquid she put together to defeat such intruders in her gardens...”Don’t worry my babies.” She said with gentleness in her voice. “I’ll have these marauders done with soon enough.”\n\n She didn’t notice Legoshi until she turned away from her roses and jumped from the surprise visit! She stumbled backwards and almost landed in her rose beds had it not been for the giant wolf’s fast move to swipe her off her feet!\n\n “GOTCH CHA!” Legoshi yelped as he held Haru under her arm pits and lifted her off the ground....”Shew! Averted a disaster.”\n\n Haru giggled...”Next time? Call me when you’re planning a visit will you Legoshi? I mean.....Officer Legoshi.”\n\n The wolf took a deep breath of the garden scents and smiled warmly. “Every time I come here Haru? The smells are always so different.”\n\n Haru and Legoshi both attended Cherryton Academy, Zootopia’s school of the arts. Legoshi was a member of the drama club, Haru the garden club. Only Haru pursued her courses further after graduation while Legoshi and one of his classmates, the Bengal Tiger named Bill, decided to join the ZPD where their acting accomplishments could augment well in law enforcement...at least that was Bill’s idea. So far? It was working out well.\n\n Haru became an accomplished botanist and Herbalist, wrote two very good books so far on gardening and opened her garden and socialatum center a year ago. She had done very well for herself...even with the assured ridicule that came with her other school major...Socialator.\n\n In the world of the rabbits, there are two despised ways of life. Rabbits who were homosexuals and rabbits who were “Socialators”. More often than not? The title “Socialator” in rabbit speak only meant....\n\n“Whore”\n\n“Slut”\n\n“cunt”\n\n“Bitch ditch”\n\n“ Train tunnel”\n\n Any derogatory word you’d call a prostitute, Haru had them all thrown at her in school and they didn’t phase her. A Socialator was for simple purposes...more akin to a Japanese Geisha, one who didn’t need to “sleep around” to give a partner or a customer piece of mind. In fact? Socialation was once considered an honorable and necessary activity in the formative days of Zootopia between Predatorials and Prey species. \n\n Consider a socialator a psychologist, a chiropractor, a zen flower arranger and a clinical doctor all wrapped in one package....which was almost always female and almost always a female rabbit. Back in the formation days, it took not a few brave female rabbits to forestall the murdering cravings of Predators. Not too few Socialators met their end climbing into the jaws of big cats or wolves if their sacrifice helped the cause of peace....It was once considered a noble and blessed profession.\n\n But once again, in the eyes of many rabbits....Haru was a dirt covered slut who slept with any mammal and to the eyes of puritan rabbits? She was better off dead.\n\n That was why Legoshi made detours and excuses so he could visit her as often as possible so that any rabbit purist bent on filling a perverted view of the rabbit book of the prophet El-ahrairah with a wild tail hair would know that if her dared to screw with Haru? He’d be facing some serious wolf teeth. But for now, Legoshi was entranced by the wonderful rich scents coursing through his brain...\n\n “Snnnnnnifffffff”....”Haru? You have Tamerins?” Legoshi asked as he stood with his eyes closed. Tamerin flowers are to wolves what Cap Nip is to cats, the scent alone is almost a gentle narcotic in a wolf’s head.\n\n Haru came walking up and took hold of on of Legoshi’s big paws. “Follow me so you don’t walk over anything alright?” She said smiling.\n\n “Sniff.....sniff....” How many are there?” Legoshi asked softly.\n\n “A lot silly.” Haru replied. “After all? I planted them just for you.”\n\n Legoshi allowed Haru to pull him along until she stopped and patted a paw...”Open your eyes.” She said with a smile.\n\n The big wolf’s mouth dropped open a little with a pleased surprise. Haru had planted three big rows of the wolfish favorite and, as was her nature, she had mothered over the flowers to increase their quality and potency.\n\n “Like this?” Haru asked as she passed her paws over her creation. She looked up at Legoshi’s face and saw how pleased he was as he sat to enjoy the sweet scents rolling into his nostrals...”Giggles” the white dwarf rabbit laughed...”I see you do?”\n\n “Yes.” Legoshi said as he slowly laid on his back...”This takes away all the stress of a day of work.”\n\n Haru bounced onto Legoshi’s stomach....”Glad you like it! How can I help you today?”\n\n “I? I haven’t figured that out yet.” Legoshi said as he started to play with Haru’s ears. “But I’m sure it will come up?” Legoshi sighed as he laid completely flat...”You know what? Every time I see you Haru? You just get more and more beautiful to me.”\n\n Haru giggled....”Beauty as in flower or beauty as in something that should be in your mouth?”\n\n “Haru?!” Legoshi yelped.\n\n “I’m kidding silly.” Haru replied. “I was thinking you’d want to play a little “Predator and Prey” to help ease your stress?”\n\n The relationship between Haru and Legoshi had always been complex. Socialators by tradition didn’t favor a single client and Legoshi always treated Haru as if she was an easy to bruise flower, which urked her a lot. They tried the close girl/boy friend relationship and it didn’t work well. This way seemed the most comfortable though it was against their species traditional designs as both of them should have had mates by their current ages. Both of them were fighting against their instincts. It was a messy relationship juggle but at the moment...Legoshi didn’t give a care because the Tamerlin flowers were leaving him a pile of silly goo...\n\n Haru pulled herself over Legoshi’s body and played with his large jowls...”Go feral and let me play with you?” She asked softly as she played a paw over his teeth. “Come on? Get in those beds and soak up the smells? Let yourself go...”\n\n “I can’t ruin your beds?” Legoshi replied as Haru played with his shirt... \n\n“I didn’t grow three full beds to be unmolested and oogled over you silly thing. Now strip and go nuts in at least one of them. Get all that stress out of you so we can enjoy a good conversation.” The dwarf rabbit said as she threw Legoshi’s uniform tie over her shoulder.\n\n[b]3:00PM\nExecutive Office Building, Downtown Zootopia\nOffice of the Mayor, Lewis the Red Deer [/b][b][/b]\n\n Lewis was the first Herbivore and the first member of the prey species to become Mayor of Zootopia after more than a century of predators having the top job. He still acted on stage, a passion he’d never abandon from his Cherryton school days. His most recent performance “Shiloh” was received splendidly at the theater where he played the part of the great Predatorial civil war hero “Wallace” who unlike so many mammals who died in that hollocaust, died with his wife by his side. So many things blended perfectly in the closing act...the lighting, the music, the vocal tones...even Lewis couldn’t help but weep at the mere thought of how “Wallace” died. But he couldn’t help but think....had Legoshi remained in theatrical supports after his graduation? Would the performance been even more stunning?\n\n The flashbacks and self critique were making him drift off subject...\n\n “Mister Mayor?” Chief Ellington Bogo asked as the big cape Buffalo gestured with a hoof hand. “Mister Mayor?”\n\n “What?” Lewis reacted with a head shake...”Oh? Oh forgive me Chief, I was....just lost in other thoughts...yes...yourself and....Lieutenant Hopps?” Lewis asked as he looked around his desk. “Um? Where is Lieutenant Hopps?”\n\n Judy jumped up from her chair and waved....”Here Sir!” She said.\n\n “Oh yes? You’re a bunny.” Lewis reacted. “I forgot to set up a higher seat for you. Please Lieutenant? Come up on the desk and sit if you’d like?”\n\n Judy bounced onto the desk top and sat waving her paws around. “Sorry Sir...I am so sorry but...you must know? I....I haven’t missed any one of your performances, you are.....I mean...may I please have your autograph?”\n\n “Why not a selfe?” Lewis replied. “No Mrs. Wilde, I don’t mind at all.” Lewis said smiling.\n\n “Your honor?” Chief Bogo said a little bothered...”Could we perhaps hold the autographs until after what we must discuss? Hopps? You don’t mind? Do you?”\n\n Judy gestured her paws in restraint...”Of course Chief....of course, we’re not here on a fan call by any means.” Judy said as she stood up and straitened her uniform...”Ahem”....”Mister Mayor? We’ve come of course to tell you that it seems a serial killer is active in Zootopia and he’s preying on young mammals.”\n\n Chief Bogo joined in....”So far we have thirty confirmed missing cases of cubs, kittens and fawns or foals between the ages of 8 and 13 years old. Two victims we assume are part of those missing cases have been found de-limb’d and decapitated. Same gruesome work and style performed on the remains. Lieutenant Hopps is over seeing the evidence processing and the investigation.”\n\n “I’m convinced Sir that we’re dealing with a serial murderer and not an illegal meat gathering operation or opportunistic predation. We believe you should activate protective protocols at once.” Judy exclaimed.\n\n Lewis sat back against his chair and played with his hoof fingers. “Now lieutenant? Allow me to play a devil’s advocate for a moment? How many young mammals do you say are missing right now?” He asked Judy.\n\n “Thirty total Sir.” Judy replied.\n \n “And....how many are run-a-ways?” Lewis asked. “Just an estimation?”\n\n Judy shook her head...”Sir? I believe...”\n\n “Lieutenant? Chief? Just humor me please? How many do we know are run-a-ways?” Lewis asked.\n\n “Roughly twelve Sir.” Bogo replied.\n\n “Which actually leaves us with 18 young mammals missing. My first question to both of you is? Are we putting all our resources in to find these eighteen young mammals? The ones we can classify as truly missing?”\n\n Judy gestured. “Sir? We can’t disregard a few for every one of them. All of our young mammals are precious in our eyes are they not?”\n\n Lewis gestured back. “Lieutenant? I am merely suggesting a re-alignment of resources to finding those youngsters who could be truly missing because of the action of some deviant hostile mammal...that’s all. I suggest the department focus all resources on finding these eighteen youngsters as priority. Now....as to your request that we increase our alertness to the general populace? I am very concerned that we don’t have enough evidence to justify closing schools, putting police on every street corner and ending up with a number of poor mammal’s accidently shot because some parent pulled a gun because some tiger smiled at their little cub. We need to make absolutely sure that we are in fact dealing with a serial criminal. And no Lieutenant? I am not attacking your time accumulated knowledge, intuition and “Bunny hair” attentiveness. I just want to be absolutely certain of what we’re facing before I call a “Castle Bravo” on the whole city.”\n\n Judy sat frowning...”Mister Mayor? If you know my experience? Then you should know that I never give a report until I have the facts and the evidence to back my reports up and I am telling you honestly Sir that we are dealing with a dangerous killer. We must cut off his source of supply while we work to hunt down the thirty young mammals who right now could be in the grips of this maniac.”\n\n Lewis gestured with a kind smile...”Lieutenant? Judy? Who right now is the mayor Zootopia?”\n\n Judy sighed....”You are Sir.”\n\n “Judy? Please stop with the “Sir”...I appreciate your honorifics but as you have your duty to protect the citizens of our great city? I have the responsibility to ensure that protection is purposed and utilized properly. I also have the responsibility to keep things calm and not invoke panic, stampedes, scurry and other acts of insantiy that would throw our city into chaos. Believe me? When the time comes for me to order a “Castle Bravo”? It will be done in such a way to prevent chaos...not instill it.”\n\n Lewis got his snoot close to Judy’s face. “Mrs. Wilde? Judy? I am so sore remissed...I have not taken time to properly reward you not only for making officer rank in the ZPD as swiftly as you have done. You continue to astound all of us with your remarkable achievements as the ZPD’s first bunny cop. I for one? Have followed your exploits as much as you have followed my performances. Nothing I do or say is to impend upon you nor im-pune your stellar record of performance. Please continue your efforts by all your means?”\n\n Judy beamed at the compliments...”Mister Mayor? You have my word! We will find these missing youngsters and capture this sick mammal who’s doing these abominate acts! You have my word!”\n\n Lewis straitened up...”Chief? I think you have your replacement come your retirement? Which knowing you? Won’t happen until hell freezes over. I would continue to chat officers? But I have many things to attend to this afternoon and evening. Please keep me aware of all developments will you?”\n\n Judy and Bogo rose to their feet and saluted Lewis who snapped a salute back and shepherded them from his office.\n\n[b]3:30pm\nHome of the Gray family\n57 Russell Street, Chestnut Town, Rainforest District[/b][b][/b]\n\n Will was on the floor of his bedroom drifting between a Chilton’s auto repair book and a carburetor from his Dad’s old truck that he had scattered on a tarp...\n\n “Hmph? WD-40 or translucent oil for this?” The young wolf teen thought as he examined a piece of the valve shutter assembly.\n\n “WILLIAM?!” His mother Valerie yelled. “COME DOWN TO THE LIVING ROOM PLEASE?”\n\n Dutifully...Will jumped up and quickly came down the steps from the second floor into the living room....to find Alex and Morgan....\n\n Arm and arm over each others shoulders?\n\n “Hi!” Morgan said cheerfully.\n\n Valerie stood off to the side smiling at her oldest pup...”William? Did you make a bet with Alex that he and Morgan would never make up?”\n\n Will stood silent as a rock...\n\n “What’s wrong brother?” Alex snickered. “The cat snatched your tongue?! Mom asked a question Will?”\n\n Valerie asked Will again....”William? Did you make a bet with your brother that he and Morgan would never make up?”\n\n Will shook his head...”OH! THEY ARE SO PULLING IT!” The older teen wolf snapped!\n\n “Pulling what?!” Morgan yipped back. “Alex? What kind of a bet did you make with your brother?”\n\n Alex giggled....”The poser would have to walk around in Pampers at the mall....GET WALKING THERE TODDLER! HAH! GOT YOU WILL! GOT YOU GOOD!”\n\n “What....a......dumb.....tail!” Morgan yipped! “You bet against your own little brother?! What a complete dorkus!”\n\n “No way!” Will snapped. “NO.......WAY! Mom! They are so blowing chunks!”\n\n “No?” Alex replied. “You’re the one blowing chunks of tears over having lost! Hah! I told Morgan how important that jacket was to her and she accepted my apology and YOU CAN’T HACK IT WILL! GET YOUR DIAPER ON LITTLE PUPPY!”\n\n Will turned to Valerie....”Mom?! They’re scamming it! I can tell it with their tails and their eyes!”\n\n “What a two faced cry baby!” Morgan yelped! “Geesh Will? At least have some dignity to admit you were wrong about Alex?!” Morgan turned to Alex. “And I was sooooo stupid to think he’s not the cutest little wolf in all Zootopia....”Mmmmmmm!” Morgan gave Alex a kiss on his cheek. “You’re such a persuasive and cute little wolf Alex! Much smarter than dumb dumb over here by far!” \n\n “Hey!” Will snapped at Morgan! “Watch your maw you....!”\n\n Alex jumped in front of Morgan and bore his teeth...”Don’t you insult my girl friend! And don’t welsh your loss Will!”\n\n “Girl friend?” Will snorted back. “Oh the turd pile is getting deep in here, quit it with the act you little dork!”\n\n “WILLIAM!” Valerie snapped! “You made a bet with your little brother.....right?”\n\n Will sagged. “Yes Mom.”\n\n “And the bet was that the loser would wear a pair of Pampers.....right?” Asked Valerie.\n\n “And a baby bonnet Mom!” Alex yelped. “Don’t forget the baby bonnet there Will! And the loser goes prancing through the Rain Forest Central Mall! Well? Get to prancing there Pamper boy!”\n\n Will turned to snap back but his mother cup slapped an ear! “YIPE! YIE! YIE!.....MOM?!”\n\n “Will? You are going to keep your promise.” Valerie huffed. “In fact? We’re going to the store so “you” young wolf can pick your pair yourself.”\n\n “Cartoons! Mom. has to be cartoons!” Alex yelped.\n\n “As for you Alexander? You can have your fun but no going overboard with the gloating understand?” Valerie waved a warning finger in Alex’s face.\n\n “Hmph....” Alex snickered. “Should make you pee in it too. Get you back for all the times you laughed at me for peeing my bed.”\n\n Valerie cocked her head. “Oh?”\n\n “Yeah! You did!” Alex snapped. “Mom! He’d come into the room after you changed my sheets and he would razzle me to death!”\n\n Valerie looked at Will....”Is that so?”\n\n “Oh my gawd! Mom!” Will yelped. “He’s milking this and adding to the bet! That’s illegal! That’s unconstitutional!”\n\n “My feelings are still hurt.” Alex said cocking his head to the side. “I think making you pee yourself is fair.”\n\n “Grrrrrrrrrr.....” Will growled. “Mom? Take me shopping before I dig a deeper hole please?!” \n\n[b]4pm\nHome of Nick and Judy Wilde\nDowntown Zootopia[/b][b][/b]\n\n Nick walked through the front door, got on his knees and held his arms out wide....”Where’s my sunny bunny foxy woxy?!” He yelped.\n\n “Daddy!” A youngster’s voice yelled out and five year old Jackson Wilde came running out of a room and tackled his father over onto his back! “Mmmmm....hello Daddy. Was work good today?”\n\n Nick hugged his son and gave him a gentle nuzzle on the nose...”As nice as it could be. And did you behave?”\n\n “Uh huh!” Jackson replied. He was a hybrid with the body of a rabbit and the fur, eyes and teeth of a fox. Jackson’s fur colors were fox brown and bunny gray with beautiful big green eyes and a flaming red thick hair tuft on his head and Nick couldn’t love him more....\n\n “You’re not fibbing right?” Nick warned. “Let’s ask your baby sitter.”\n\n Nick walked into the kitchen where Jackson’s baby sitter, a young Kangaroo female named Collah, sat doing her college work at the kitchen table.\n\n “Collah? Was my son good?” Nick asked.\n\n “No....he was boring.” The kangaroo replied smiling as she reached out to play with one of Jackson’s feet. “How do you do it Nick? I can’t make my own joey sit still for five seconds let along five minutes but Jackson is so perfectly behaved. How do you do it?”\n\n Nick placed Jackson on a chair...”Family secret, we found a “big” teacher who Jackson loves and teaches him all kinds of social graces. My kit’s going to be the Mayor one day for sure. Want some juice Jackie?”\n\n Jackson smiled wide....”Please Daddy?”\n\n “Oh my gawd!” Collah said....”He is so adorable!\n \n “Get’s it from his father.” Nick said as he played with Jackson’s paws. “But don’t tell my wife ok?”\n\n Collah went to the fridge to get the milk jug of juice specially formulated in Jackson’s case due to his Hybridity. The sweet elixir had to satisfy both the rabbit and fox sides of Jackson’s growing body as he was both a herbivore and a carnivore with teeth from both parents, the long frontal flat teeth of his mother and the cat like fangs and back teeth of his vulpine father.\n\n “So how was work?” Collah asked. “Or are you still on duty?”\n\n “Still on. Judy will probably be working late.” Nick said as he poured his son a glass of juice. “How old is your joey now?”\n \n “Ugh...three and on a high speed setting. Try chasing him around our house when it’s bath time....those legs.” The female kangaroo said.\n\n “Not gonna try.” Nick replied. “Judy will probably be home late because we’ve got a bit of a city affected situation brewing. I don’t want to elaborate on it just yet. Judy’s meeting Mayor Lewis or she’s probably on her way back to the station.”\n\n “Is it a savage situation?” Collah asked.\n\n “I dunno.” Nick replied as he took Jackson’s finished glass and placed it in the dish washer. “I wouldn’t say it’s “Savage” because there’s some order with it? But right now, I can’t get too deep into it.”\n\n Nick reached out and picked Jackson up...”The one thing Carrots misses doing with him. She couldn’t pick him up after he turned a year old because he was about her size. Our doctor says he’ll be half my size by adult hood. What about it Jackie? Going to be a police officer like Mom and Dad?”\n\n “Nope.” Jackson yipped. “Gonna be Big Jackson! And Uncle Paulie’s gonna be my.....Capo!”\n\n Nick giggled....”He’s been sneaking a peak at our binge watching... you naughty little scammer you.”\n\n “Ice em!” Jackson yelped. “Ice em!” “Ice em!” “Ice em!” “Ice em!”\n\n Nick sighed....”I swear...I am going to have a talk with his Godfather about these words he picks up. If you don’t mind Collah?” Nick asked smiling. “I’m taking him up to his bed for a nap.”\n\n[b]4pm\nHaru’s happiness flower and Socialation center\nSahara Beach[/b][b][/b]\n\n Legoshi tried to talk through the fluff in his maw...”And? This is supposed to temper my urgings?” The big wolf said as Haru moved herself and rubbed her lower body around the inside of Legoshi’s wide open maw...\n\n “Between the scent of the flowers and the feeling of a warm body gently massaging your maw? You should feel total relaxation and slaking of those pesky predatorial desires...which should help you think clearly and feel refreshed and relaxed.” The white dwarf bunny said smiling as she gently rubbed her paws over Legoshi’s nose. She wasn’t all naked, she was wearing a white fur bikini bottom as she moved around inside Legoshi’s mouth. Every now and then there was a quiver, a gentle jaw squeeze, the caress of that long moist tongue and a growl released but Legoshi law still and un-offending, tolerating Haru’s purposeful attempts to get him to snap on her....which is also why she had in her hand a telescoping staff ready to lock up his jaws if he tried to chew into her....\n\n “Now?” Haru asked. “You say you have nightmares often? Describe one to me?” The white dwarf rabbit asked as she gently rubbed her paws over Legoshi’s large head....”Come on? Don’t be a mute...just....describe one.”\n\n Legoshi eased Haru from his maw and sat her down on his lap as he sat up....”I find myself running in a black liquid pool. Feels like oil. Bill’s in the distance with the squad car, I’m trying to run towards it but I just can’t get any closer. This wave forms out of the black liquid behind me and just plows me under.”\n\n Haru cocked her head to the side and played with one of her long ears...”Is Bill hurt or injured?”\n\n “Nope.” Legoshi replied. “It’s like he can’t see what’s going on.”\n\n Haru thought for a moment, scratching her chin and then walked around waving a paw finger....”You’re deeply troubled by your own feelings of doubt.” She said as she pushed her finger into Legoshi’s nose. “You think?! You think you can’t hack it as a police officer because you feel your giant size as a wolf will overwhelm your ability to control your ancient predatorial nature!”\n\n “You see all that in that dream?” Legoshi asked.\n\n “No.” Haru replied. “You forget that I know you from your head to your pointy toes you big fuzzy goof! You need to stop censoring the heck out of yourself all the time! You are not powerless nor out of control but you stress the hell out of yourself over this obsessive need to control your own life!”\n\n Haru gave Legoshi light slaps in the snoot....”Bad Wolf! Bad Canid! Bad doggy!”\n\n “Haru?!” Legoshi snapped as he grabbed her wrists...”Cut the crap already!” The big wolf looked at Haru’s face and flopped onto his back. “Oh....you’re right, who the hell am I trying to fool?”\n\n “Flick!” Haru flicked one of Legoshi’s ears hard with her fingers! “Ok! Time for a little self relief. Get naked.”\n\n “I can’t!” Legoshi yiped! “I’m on duty!”\n\n “Duty can take a powder.” Haru snorted back. “You need immediate therapy! Off with the clothes silly!”\n\n “At least let me call Bill?!” Legoshi replied as he scrambled to his shoulder radio but Haru got to it first....\n\n “Hi Bill!” Haru yelled into the mic! “Legoshi’s being detained, it’ll be an hour, go kill some time but don’t kill anyone!”\n\n Haru threw the mix over her shoulder then threw her panties over her head....”Time for a little friendly Predator and Prey session.”\n\n[b] 4pm\nJudy and Chief Bogo on their way back to First Prinky\nDowntown Zootopia City.[/b][b][/b]\n\n “Judy? Judy?.....Your silence could cause lemmings to commit a mass suicide about now.” Chief Bogo said as he pulled his car over to the side of the road. “Obviously? The mayor’s reaction has enlisted your deep disapproval I assume?”\n\n Judy looked up at the Chief and sighed...”Just a bit...I guess I was expecting a little too much in there.”\n\n “Some of his points were valid. We should take a serious examination of all the missing young ones and bypass the run-a-way cases for those which nay or may not be clear indications of abduction. It’s called sharpening the resources...”\n\n “It’s called triage.” Judy replied. “And I do understand his reluctance to call a “Castle Bravo”....I guess it would cause a big panic.”\n\n Bogo looked down at Judy. “Judy? I value your strengths, you know that. What you did during the Savage case made me a believer out of you which is why you’re taking the lead on this situation. Do what you do best and find this....this maniac. But start first with the missing cases you can confirm are abductions....I believe those will yield us faster results.”\n\n Bogo could see Judy was still a little upset....”So? How’s that little shaver of yours? Lighten the subject a little.”\n\n Judy smiled warmly...”How else can I come to work every day with a big smile on my face? He’s reading bigger books and I don’t have to encourage him at all! He’s very smart...and.....big. Pretty soon he’s going to be holding me on his lap.”\n\n “So? Who does he take after?” Bogo asked. “You or Nick?”\n\n “You know a mother’s always going to claim their child takes after them. Actually? Nick thinks Jackson will be more like his mother, his empathy is so much like her. He makes friends so easily.” Judy always beamed when talking of her son, which made following up on such difficult subjects as their current case problem a lot easier...\n\n “Alright.” Bogo said. “From what you do have Judy? Give me your guts on this malfeascent bastard?”\n\n Judy’s brow lowered in concentration...”I found a mathematical component to the first two victims we found.”\n\n “Interesting?” Bogo replied.\n\n “I told you before Chief.” Judy replied. “Us rabbits are math centered critters, how else do you run a family warren with such efficiency? My mother after all is a tax accountant as well as a farmer and a matron over 379 children.”\n\n “Go on?” Bogo asked.\n\n “I asked Nick to take detailed measurements of the two sets of remains because I had this “Wild Hare” thought from a horror book I was reading by Stephen Kingfisher. Sure enough? Though they are two separate mammals? Both sets of remains when scaled against each other were cut exactly 1:1 matching scale.”\n\n Bogo was impressed....”What does that tell you?”\n\n “It tells me that our “Perp” is obsessive with mathematical equation and accuracy. It’s a telling clue. Though? To prove it conclusively? We... we would have to have at least two more repeat victims.”\n\n Bogo pursed his lips...”Goddess of the great grains....help us all. Like I said Judy? Do what you do best. Be careful that you don’t violate the laws but do everything to find this dirty bastard.”\n\n[b]4:30pm\nHome of Morgan Wright the Corgi pup\n82 Vixenville Ave, Chestnut Town, Rainforest District[/b][b][/b]\n\n Alex and Morgan were still giggling and laughing and yipping puppy barks as they pulled up in front of Morgan’s house on their bikes!\n\n (Giggles) Alex voiced....”MAAAAA?!

Chapter 4


2:50pm
Home of Morgan Wright the Corgi pup
82 Vixenville Ave, Chestnut Town, Rainforest District

      Morgan stomped towards Alex with a look of “pounding” in her eyes which caused the wolf pup to slowly back up....

     Morgan? I didn’t mean to bust your window...” Alex yipped. “Calm down....” Alex was thinking...”She’s gonna bite my face off!”

     The angry female Corgi pup stopped short and snapped...”What are you doing here Alex!”

     “Well? I was going to say something else but first I have to say sorry for trashing your window. I didn’t know you were home.” Alex said.

     “My gawd Pluto!” Morgan huffed. “That’s why there’s door bells dummy?”

      “I wasn’t sure you wouldn’t bite me for trying?” Alex said with a shrug. “Any way?....The real reason I came over was to say that I am very....very sorry for ripping your baseball jacket when we were six years old. Um....I think we were more concerned with jumping around in the mud back then than thinking how important and precious something that was given to you by your Dad was to you? But I realize now that... that jacket is super precious to you and I am so....so sorry that I ripped it.”

     Morgan pursed her lips...”Ok...thank you, I accept your apology now get off my lawn.”

     Morgan turned to go back inside but Alex cut her off...”What?” Morgan snorted. “You can go home now?!”

    Alex frowned...”Why do you hate me so much?! What else have I done to upset you Morgan?!”

     Morgan growled...”I just don’t like you ok? Now move!”

     Alex didn’t budge...”That’s not an answer Morgan. We used to play with each other all the time when we were puppies and now you hate my guts? I got my armed chewed up keeping Tiffany from beating your butt up so at least give me an honest answer?”

     Morgan got snoot to snoot with Alex...”I just don’t like you Alex Gray. I don’t like wolves period. It’s my right to chose who my friends are and you’re not on the consideration list so get off my yard, go home or I will sink my teeth into your stupid, flea bag wolf hide.”

     Morgan walked around Alex but suddenly felt his paw wrap around her arm!

     “You want to get hurt....don’t you?!” Morgan snapped.
    
     “Sigh”.....Alex stood shaking his head. “I know you don’t like wolves and I’m not ready to ask you why but I could use your help and I’d be willing to be your slave for a week if you’d help me out?”

      Morgan thought....”Hmmm? Ok? What kind of help are you asking for?” She asked Alex.

     Alex looked around then whispered into Morgan’s ear....

     “Whisper....Whisper, Whisper, whisp”

    “Are you kidding?” Morgan yelped.

     “Whisper....whisp”

    “That’s if he loses?” Morgan yelped again.

     “Whisper....whisp” “And that’s it.” Alex said. “If you can tolerate just a few minutes of having to be with me? You can watch my poor big brother cry at losing a bet and having to prance through the mall in a pair of Pampers.”

      Morgan snickered evilly. “To see your brother make a fool of himself? I’m gain! But?! Only this once! I’ll probably have to take a bath in super strong anti-flea soap after hanging around you.”

      Alex frowned...”Don’t think I’m going to feel any comfort from it myself....Save the humiliation of my poor big brother.”

      “Wanna go over right now?” Morgan asked. “I’ll get my bike. My Mom’s bringing Ako over so I need to call her before we go.”

      “I’ll just wait here.” Alex said as he leaned against his bike.

     “What? You afraid I’ll sneak attack bite you or something?” Morgan said with a shrug. “At least come in for a glass of water or a bag of Kibble treats? I’m not a total jerk.”

     “I’ve never called you a jerk.” Alex said. “A little bit difficult at times? But never a jerk.”

3:00PM
Haru’s happiness flower and Socialation center
Sahara Beach

      Haru the dwarf white rabbit female stopped in her walk around her gardens to inspect some Prim roses in their beds....

     “Aphids again? You little devils sure are suicidal.” Haru said as she grabbed her spray bottle of natural liquid she put together to defeat such intruders in her gardens...”Don’t worry my babies.” She said with gentleness in her voice. “I’ll have these marauders done with soon enough.”

      She didn’t notice Legoshi until she turned away from her roses and jumped from the surprise visit! She stumbled backwards and almost landed in her rose beds had it not been for the giant wolf’s fast move to swipe her off her feet!

     “GOTCH CHA!” Legoshi yelped as he held Haru under her arm pits and lifted her off the ground....”Shew! Averted a disaster.”

     Haru giggled...”Next time? Call me when you’re planning a visit will you Legoshi? I mean.....Officer Legoshi.”

     The wolf took a deep breath of the garden scents and smiled warmly. “Every time I come here Haru? The smells are always so different.”

     Haru and Legoshi both attended Cherryton Academy, Zootopia’s school of the arts. Legoshi was a member of the drama club, Haru the garden club. Only Haru pursued her courses further after graduation while Legoshi and one of his classmates, the Bengal Tiger named Bill, decided to join the ZPD where their acting accomplishments could augment well in law enforcement...at least that was Bill’s idea. So far? It was working out well.

    Haru became an accomplished botanist and Herbalist, wrote two very good books so far on gardening and opened her garden and socialatum center a year ago. She had done very well for herself...even with the assured ridicule that came with her other school major...Socialator.

    In the world of the rabbits, there are two despised ways of life. Rabbits who were homosexuals and rabbits who were “Socialators”. More often than not? The title “Socialator” in rabbit speak only meant....

“Whore”

“Slut”

“cunt”

“Bitch ditch”

“ Train tunnel”

     Any derogatory word you’d call a prostitute, Haru had them all thrown at her in school and they didn’t phase her. A Socialator was for simple purposes...more akin to a Japanese Geisha, one who didn’t need to “sleep around” to give a partner or a customer piece of mind. In fact? Socialation was once considered an honorable and necessary activity in the formative days of Zootopia between Predatorials and Prey species.

     Consider a socialator a psychologist, a chiropractor, a zen flower arranger and a clinical doctor all wrapped in one package....which was almost always female and almost always a female rabbit. Back in the formation days, it took not a few brave female rabbits to forestall the murdering cravings of Predators. Not too few Socialators met their end climbing into the jaws of big cats or wolves if their sacrifice helped the cause of peace....It was once considered a noble and blessed profession.

      But once again, in the eyes of many rabbits....Haru was a dirt covered slut who slept with any mammal and to the eyes of puritan rabbits? She was better off dead.

      That was why Legoshi made detours and excuses so he could visit her as often as possible so that any rabbit purist bent on filling a perverted view of the rabbit book of the prophet El-ahrairah with a wild tail hair would know that if her dared to screw with Haru? He’d be facing some serious wolf teeth. But for now, Legoshi was entranced by the wonderful rich scents coursing through his brain...

      “Snnnnnnifffffff”....”Haru? You have Tamerins?” Legoshi asked as he stood with his eyes closed. Tamerin flowers are to wolves what Cap Nip is to cats, the scent alone is almost a gentle narcotic in a wolf’s head.

       Haru came walking up and took hold of on of Legoshi’s big paws. “Follow me so you don’t walk over anything alright?” She said smiling.

      “Sniff.....sniff....” How many are there?” Legoshi asked softly.

       “A lot silly.” Haru replied. “After all? I planted them just for you.”

      Legoshi allowed Haru to pull him along until she stopped and patted a paw...”Open your eyes.” She said with a smile.

      The big wolf’s mouth dropped open a little with a pleased surprise. Haru had planted three big rows of the wolfish favorite and, as was her nature, she had mothered over the flowers to increase their quality and potency.

      “Like this?” Haru asked as she passed her paws over her creation. She looked up at Legoshi’s face and saw how pleased he was as he sat to enjoy the sweet scents rolling into his nostrals...”Giggles” the white dwarf rabbit laughed...”I see you do?”

      “Yes.” Legoshi said as he slowly laid on his back...”This takes away all the stress of a day of work.”

       Haru bounced onto Legoshi’s stomach....”Glad you like it! How can I help you today?”

      “I? I haven’t figured that out yet.” Legoshi said as he started to play with Haru’s ears. “But I’m sure it will come up?” Legoshi sighed as he laid completely flat...”You know what? Every time I see you Haru? You just get more and more beautiful to me.”

      Haru giggled....”Beauty as in flower or beauty as in something that should be in your mouth?”

      “Haru?!” Legoshi yelped.

      “I’m kidding silly.” Haru replied. “I was thinking you’d want to play a little “Predator and Prey” to help ease your stress?”

      The relationship between Haru and Legoshi had always been complex. Socialators by tradition didn’t favor a single client and Legoshi always treated Haru as if she was an easy to bruise flower, which urked her a lot. They tried the close girl/boy friend relationship and it didn’t work well. This way seemed the most comfortable though it was against their species traditional designs as both of them should have had mates by their current ages. Both of them were fighting against their instincts. It was a messy relationship juggle but at the moment...Legoshi didn’t give a care because the Tamerlin flowers were leaving him a pile of silly goo...

      Haru pulled herself over Legoshi’s body and played with his large jowls...”Go feral and let me play with you?” She asked softly as she played a paw over his teeth. “Come on? Get in those beds and soak up the smells? Let yourself go...”

     “I can’t ruin your beds?” Legoshi replied as Haru played with his shirt...

“I didn’t grow three full beds to be unmolested and oogled over you silly thing. Now strip and go nuts in at least one of them. Get all that stress out of you so we can enjoy a good conversation.” The dwarf rabbit said as she threw Legoshi’s uniform tie over her shoulder.

3:00PM
Executive Office Building, Downtown Zootopia
Office of the Mayor, Lewis the Red Deer

     Lewis was the first Herbivore and the first member of the prey species to become Mayor of Zootopia after more than a century of predators having the top job. He still acted on stage, a passion he’d never abandon from his Cherryton school days. His most recent performance “Shiloh” was received splendidly at the theater where he played the part of the great Predatorial civil war hero “Wallace” who unlike so many mammals who died in that hollocaust, died with his wife by his side. So many things blended perfectly in the closing act...the lighting, the music, the vocal tones...even Lewis couldn’t help but weep at the mere thought of how “Wallace” died. But he couldn’t help but think....had Legoshi remained in theatrical supports after his graduation? Would the performance been even more stunning?

      The flashbacks and self critique were making him drift off subject...

      “Mister Mayor?” Chief Ellington Bogo asked as the big cape Buffalo gestured with a hoof hand. “Mister Mayor?”

       “What?” Lewis reacted with a head shake...”Oh? Oh forgive me Chief, I was....just lost in other thoughts...yes...yourself and....Lieutenant Hopps?” Lewis asked as he looked around his desk. “Um? Where is Lieutenant Hopps?”

      Judy jumped up from her chair and waved....”Here Sir!” She said.

      “Oh yes? You’re a bunny.” Lewis reacted. “I forgot to set up a higher seat for you. Please Lieutenant? Come up on the desk and sit if you’d like?”

       Judy bounced onto the desk top and sat waving her paws around. “Sorry Sir...I am so sorry but...you must know? I....I haven’t missed any one of your performances, you are.....I mean...may I please have your autograph?”

      “Why not a selfe?” Lewis replied. “No Mrs. Wilde, I don’t mind at all.” Lewis said smiling.

     “Your honor?” Chief Bogo said a little bothered...”Could we perhaps hold the autographs until after what we must discuss? Hopps? You don’t mind? Do you?”

      Judy gestured her paws in restraint...”Of course Chief....of course, we’re not here on a fan call by any means.” Judy said as she stood up and straitened her uniform...”Ahem”....”Mister Mayor? We’ve come of course to tell you that it seems a serial killer is active in Zootopia and he’s preying on young mammals.”

     Chief Bogo joined in....”So far we have thirty confirmed missing cases of cubs, kittens and fawns or foals between the ages of 8 and 13 years old. Two victims we assume are part of those missing cases have been found de-limb’d and decapitated. Same gruesome work and style performed on the remains. Lieutenant Hopps is over seeing the evidence processing and the investigation.”

     “I’m convinced Sir that we’re dealing with a serial murderer and not an illegal meat gathering operation or opportunistic predation. We believe you should activate protective protocols at once.” Judy exclaimed.

     Lewis sat back against his chair and played with his hoof fingers. “Now lieutenant? Allow me to play a devil’s advocate for a moment? How many young mammals do you say are missing right now?” He asked Judy.

    “Thirty total Sir.” Judy replied.
 
    “And....how many are run-a-ways?” Lewis asked. “Just an estimation?”

    Judy shook her head...”Sir? I believe...”

    “Lieutenant? Chief? Just humor me please? How many do we know are run-a-ways?” Lewis asked.

     “Roughly twelve Sir.” Bogo replied.

    “Which actually leaves us with 18 young mammals missing. My first question to both of you is? Are we putting all our resources in to find these eighteen young mammals? The ones we can classify as truly missing?”

      Judy gestured. “Sir? We can’t disregard a few for every one of them. All of our young mammals are precious in our eyes are they not?”

      Lewis gestured back. “Lieutenant? I am merely suggesting a re-alignment of resources to finding those youngsters who could be truly missing because of the action of some deviant hostile mammal...that’s all. I suggest the department focus all resources on finding these eighteen youngsters as priority. Now....as to your request that we increase our alertness to the general populace? I am very concerned that we don’t have enough evidence to justify closing schools, putting police on every street corner and ending up with a number of poor mammal’s accidently shot because some parent pulled a gun because some tiger smiled at their little cub. We need to make absolutely sure that we are in fact dealing with a serial criminal. And no Lieutenant? I am not attacking your time accumulated knowledge, intuition and “Bunny hair” attentiveness. I just want to be absolutely certain of what we’re facing before I call a “Castle Bravo” on the whole city.”

      Judy sat frowning...”Mister Mayor? If you know my experience? Then you should know that I never give a report until I have the facts and the evidence to back my reports up and I am telling you honestly Sir that we are dealing with a dangerous killer. We must cut off his source of supply while we work to hunt down the thirty young mammals who right now could be in the grips of this maniac.”

      Lewis gestured with a kind smile...”Lieutenant? Judy? Who right now is the mayor Zootopia?”

      Judy sighed....”You are Sir.”

     “Judy? Please stop with the “Sir”...I appreciate your honorifics but as you have your duty to protect the citizens of our great city? I have the responsibility to ensure that protection is purposed and utilized properly. I also have the responsibility to keep things calm and not invoke panic, stampedes, scurry and other acts of insantiy that would throw our city into chaos. Believe me? When the time comes for me to order a “Castle Bravo”? It will be done in such a way to prevent chaos...not instill it.”

     Lewis got his snoot close to Judy’s face. “Mrs. Wilde? Judy? I am so sore remissed...I have not taken time to properly reward you not only for  making officer rank in the ZPD as swiftly as you have done. You continue to astound all of us with your remarkable achievements as the ZPD’s first bunny cop. I for one? Have followed your exploits as much as you have followed my performances. Nothing I do or say is to impend upon you nor im-pune your stellar record of performance. Please continue your efforts by all your means?”

     Judy beamed at the compliments...”Mister Mayor? You have my word! We will find these missing youngsters and capture this sick mammal who’s doing these abominate acts! You have my word!”

     Lewis straitened up...”Chief? I think you have your replacement come your retirement? Which knowing you? Won’t happen until hell freezes over. I would continue to chat officers? But I have many things to attend to this afternoon and evening. Please keep me aware of all developments will you?”

     Judy and Bogo rose to their feet and saluted Lewis who snapped a salute back and shepherded them from his office.

3:30pm
Home of the Gray family
57 Russell Street, Chestnut Town, Rainforest District

      Will was on the floor of his bedroom drifting between a Chilton’s auto repair book and a carburetor from his Dad’s old truck that he had scattered on a tarp...

      “Hmph? WD-40 or translucent oil for this?” The young wolf teen thought as he examined a piece of the valve shutter assembly.

      “WILLIAM?!” His mother Valerie yelled. “COME DOWN TO THE LIVING ROOM PLEASE?”

     Dutifully...Will jumped up and quickly came down the steps from the second floor into the living room....to find Alex and Morgan....

    Arm and arm over each others shoulders?

     “Hi!” Morgan said cheerfully.

     Valerie stood off to the side smiling at her oldest pup...”William? Did you make a bet with Alex that he and Morgan would never make up?”

      Will stood silent as a rock...

      “What’s wrong brother?” Alex snickered. “The cat snatched your tongue?! Mom asked a question Will?”

       Valerie asked Will again....”William? Did you make a bet with your brother that he and Morgan would never make up?”

        Will shook his head...”OH! THEY ARE SO PULLING IT!” The older teen wolf snapped!

        “Pulling what?!” Morgan yipped back. “Alex? What kind of a bet did you make with your brother?”

         Alex giggled....”The poser would have to walk around in Pampers at the mall....GET WALKING THERE TODDLER! HAH! GOT YOU WILL! GOT YOU GOOD!”

          “What....a......dumb.....tail!” Morgan yipped! “You bet against your own little brother?! What a complete dorkus!”

          “No way!” Will snapped. “NO.......WAY! Mom! They are so blowing chunks!”

          “No?” Alex replied. “You’re the one blowing chunks of tears over having lost! Hah! I told Morgan how important that jacket was to her and she accepted my apology and YOU CAN’T HACK IT WILL! GET YOUR DIAPER ON LITTLE PUPPY!”

         Will turned to Valerie....”Mom?! They’re scamming it! I can tell it with their tails and their eyes!”

         “What a two faced cry baby!” Morgan yelped! “Geesh Will? At least have some dignity to admit you were wrong about Alex?!” Morgan turned to Alex. “And I was sooooo stupid to think he’s not the cutest little wolf in all Zootopia....”Mmmmmmm!” Morgan gave Alex a kiss on his cheek. “You’re such a persuasive and cute little wolf Alex! Much smarter than dumb dumb over here by far!”

       “Hey!” Will snapped at Morgan! “Watch your maw you....!”

      Alex jumped in front of Morgan and bore his teeth...”Don’t you insult my girl friend! And don’t welsh your loss Will!”

      “Girl friend?” Will snorted back. “Oh the turd pile is getting deep in here, quit it with the act you little dork!”

       “WILLIAM!” Valerie snapped! “You made a bet with your little brother.....right?”

       Will sagged. “Yes Mom.”

        “And the bet was that the loser would wear a pair of Pampers.....right?” Asked Valerie.

        “And a baby bonnet Mom!” Alex yelped. “Don’t forget the baby bonnet there Will! And the loser goes prancing through the Rain Forest Central Mall! Well? Get to prancing there Pamper boy!”

         Will turned to snap back but his mother cup slapped an ear! “YIPE! YIE! YIE!.....MOM?!”

         “Will? You are going to keep your promise.” Valerie huffed. “In fact? We’re going to the store so “you” young wolf can pick your pair yourself.”

          “Cartoons! Mom. has to be cartoons!” Alex yelped.

         “As for you Alexander? You can have your fun but no going overboard with the gloating understand?” Valerie waved a warning finger in Alex’s face.

         “Hmph....” Alex snickered. “Should make you pee in it too. Get you back for all the times you laughed at me for peeing my bed.”

         Valerie cocked her head. “Oh?”

         “Yeah! You did!” Alex snapped. “Mom! He’d come into the room after you changed my sheets and he would razzle me to death!”

         Valerie looked at Will....”Is that so?”

          “Oh my gawd! Mom!” Will yelped. “He’s milking this and adding to the bet! That’s illegal! That’s unconstitutional!”

         “My feelings are still hurt.” Alex said cocking his head to the side. “I think making you pee yourself is fair.”

         “Grrrrrrrrrr.....” Will growled. “Mom? Take me shopping before I dig a deeper hole please?!”  

4pm
Home of Nick and Judy Wilde
Downtown Zootopia

        Nick walked through the front door, got on his knees and held his arms out wide....”Where’s my sunny bunny foxy woxy?!” He yelped.

        “Daddy!” A youngster’s voice yelled out and five year old Jackson Wilde came running out of a room and tackled his father over onto his back! “Mmmmm....hello Daddy. Was work good today?”

        Nick hugged his son and gave him a gentle nuzzle on the nose...”As nice as it could be. And did you behave?”

       “Uh huh!” Jackson replied. He was a hybrid with the body of a rabbit and the fur, eyes and teeth of a fox. Jackson’s fur colors were fox brown and bunny gray with beautiful big green eyes and a flaming red thick hair tuft on his head and Nick couldn’t love him more....

       “You’re not fibbing right?” Nick warned. “Let’s ask your baby sitter.”

      Nick walked into the kitchen where Jackson’s baby sitter, a young Kangaroo female named Collah, sat doing her college work at the kitchen table.

      “Collah? Was my son good?” Nick asked.

      “No....he was boring.” The kangaroo replied smiling as she reached out to play with one of Jackson’s feet. “How do you do it Nick? I can’t make my own joey sit still for five seconds let along five minutes but Jackson is so perfectly behaved. How do you do it?”

      Nick placed Jackson on a chair...”Family secret, we found a “big” teacher who Jackson loves and teaches him all kinds of social graces. My kit’s going to be the Mayor one day for sure. Want some juice Jackie?”

      Jackson smiled wide....”Please Daddy?”

      “Oh my gawd!” Collah said....”He is so adorable!
  
      “Get’s it from his father.” Nick said as he played with Jackson’s paws. “But don’t tell my wife ok?”

      Collah went to the fridge to get the milk jug of juice specially formulated in Jackson’s case due to his Hybridity. The sweet elixir had to satisfy both the rabbit and fox sides of Jackson’s growing body as he was both a herbivore and a carnivore with teeth from both parents, the long frontal flat teeth of his mother and the cat like fangs and back teeth of his vulpine father.

       “So how was work?” Collah asked. “Or are you still on duty?”

      “Still on. Judy will probably be working late.” Nick said as he poured his son a glass of juice. “How old is your joey now?”
  
      “Ugh...three and on a high speed setting. Try chasing him around our house when it’s bath time....those legs.” The female kangaroo said.

      “Not gonna try.” Nick replied. “Judy will probably be home late because we’ve got a bit of a city affected situation brewing. I don’t want to elaborate on it just yet. Judy’s meeting Mayor Lewis or she’s probably on her way back to the station.”

      “Is it a savage situation?” Collah asked.

      “I dunno.” Nick replied as he took Jackson’s finished glass and placed it in the dish washer. “I wouldn’t say it’s “Savage” because there’s some order with it? But right now, I can’t get too deep into it.”

       Nick reached out and picked Jackson up...”The one thing Carrots misses doing with him. She couldn’t pick him up after he turned a year old because he was about her size. Our doctor says he’ll be half my size by adult hood. What about it Jackie? Going to be a police officer like Mom and Dad?”

      “Nope.” Jackson yipped. “Gonna be Big Jackson! And Uncle Paulie’s gonna be my.....Capo!”

      Nick giggled....”He’s been sneaking a peak at our binge watching... you naughty little scammer you.”

      “Ice em!” Jackson yelped. “Ice em!” “Ice em!” “Ice em!” “Ice em!”

       Nick sighed....”I swear...I am going to have a talk with his Godfather about these words he picks up. If you don’t mind Collah?” Nick asked smiling. “I’m taking him up to his bed for a nap.”

4pm
Haru’s happiness flower and Socialation center
Sahara Beach

       Legoshi tried to talk through the fluff in his maw...”And? This is supposed to temper my urgings?” The big wolf said as Haru moved herself and rubbed her lower body around the inside of Legoshi’s wide open maw...

       “Between the scent of the flowers and the feeling of a warm body gently massaging your maw? You should feel total relaxation and slaking of those pesky predatorial desires...which should help you think clearly and feel refreshed and relaxed.” The white dwarf bunny said smiling as she gently rubbed her paws over Legoshi’s nose. She wasn’t all naked, she was wearing a white fur bikini bottom as she moved around inside Legoshi’s mouth. Every now and then there was a quiver, a gentle jaw squeeze, the caress of that long moist tongue and a growl released but Legoshi law still and un-offending, tolerating Haru’s purposeful attempts to get him to snap on her....which is also why she had in her hand a telescoping staff ready to lock up his jaws if he tried to chew into her....

      “Now?” Haru asked. “You say you have nightmares often? Describe one to me?” The white dwarf rabbit asked as she gently rubbed her paws over Legoshi’s large head....”Come on? Don’t be a mute...just....describe one.”

     Legoshi eased Haru from his maw and sat her down on his lap as he sat up....”I find myself running in a black liquid pool. Feels like oil. Bill’s in the distance with the squad car, I’m trying to run towards it but I just can’t get any closer. This wave forms out of the black liquid behind me and just plows me under.”

     Haru cocked her head to the side and played with one of her long ears...”Is Bill hurt or injured?”

     “Nope.” Legoshi replied. “It’s like he can’t see what’s going on.”

     Haru thought for a moment, scratching her chin and then walked around waving a paw finger....”You’re deeply troubled by your own feelings of doubt.” She said as she pushed her finger into Legoshi’s nose. “You think?! You think you can’t hack it as a police officer because you feel your giant size as a wolf will overwhelm your ability to control your ancient predatorial nature!”

    “You see all that in that dream?” Legoshi asked.

     “No.” Haru replied. “You forget that I know you from your head to your pointy toes you big fuzzy goof! You need to stop censoring the heck out of yourself all the time! You are not powerless nor out of control but you stress the hell out of yourself over this obsessive need to control your own life!”

     Haru gave Legoshi light slaps in the snoot....”Bad Wolf! Bad Canid! Bad doggy!”

     “Haru?!” Legoshi snapped as he grabbed her wrists...”Cut the crap already!” The big wolf looked at Haru’s face and flopped onto his back. “Oh....you’re right, who the hell am I trying to fool?”

      “Flick!” Haru flicked one of Legoshi’s ears hard with her fingers! “Ok! Time for a little self relief. Get naked.”

      “I can’t!” Legoshi yiped! “I’m on duty!”

      “Duty can take a powder.” Haru snorted back. “You need immediate therapy! Off with the clothes silly!”

      “At least let me call Bill?!” Legoshi replied as he scrambled to his shoulder radio but Haru got to it first....

     “Hi Bill!” Haru yelled into the mic! “Legoshi’s being detained, it’ll be an hour, go kill some time but don’t kill anyone!”

      Haru threw the mix over her shoulder then threw her panties over her head....”Time for a little friendly Predator and Prey session.”

4pm
Judy and Chief Bogo on their way back to First Prinky
Downtown Zootopia City.

      “Judy? Judy?.....Your silence could cause lemmings to commit a mass suicide about now.” Chief Bogo said as he pulled his car over to the side of the road. “Obviously? The mayor’s reaction has enlisted your deep disapproval I assume?”

      Judy looked up at the Chief and sighed...”Just a bit...I guess I was expecting a little too much in there.”

     “Some of his points were valid. We should take a serious examination of all the missing young ones and bypass the run-a-way cases for those which nay or may not be clear indications of abduction. It’s called sharpening the resources...”

    “It’s called triage.” Judy replied. “And I do understand his reluctance to call a “Castle Bravo”....I guess it would cause a big panic.”

     Bogo looked down at Judy. “Judy? I value your strengths, you know that. What you did during the Savage case made me a believer out of you which is why you’re taking the lead on this situation. Do what you do best and find this....this maniac. But start first with the missing cases you can confirm are abductions....I believe those will yield us faster results.”

      Bogo could see Judy was still a little upset....”So? How’s that little shaver of yours? Lighten the subject a little.”

      Judy smiled warmly...”How else can I come to work every day with a big smile on my face? He’s reading bigger books and I don’t have to encourage him at all! He’s very smart...and.....big. Pretty soon he’s going to be holding me on his lap.”

    “So? Who does he take after?” Bogo asked. “You or Nick?”

    “You know a mother’s always going to claim their child takes after them. Actually? Nick thinks Jackson will be more like his mother, his empathy is so much like her. He makes friends so easily.” Judy always beamed when talking of her son, which made following up on such difficult subjects as their current case problem a lot easier...

      “Alright.” Bogo said. “From what you do have Judy? Give me your guts on this malfeascent bastard?”

      Judy’s brow lowered in concentration...”I found a mathematical component to the first two victims we found.”

     “Interesting?” Bogo replied.

     “I told you before Chief.” Judy replied. “Us rabbits are math centered critters, how else do you run a family warren with such efficiency? My mother after all is a tax accountant as well as a farmer and a matron over 379 children.”

     “Go on?” Bogo asked.

      “I asked Nick to take detailed measurements of the two sets of remains because I had this “Wild Hare” thought from a horror book I was reading by Stephen Kingfisher. Sure enough? Though they are two separate mammals? Both sets of remains when scaled against each other were cut exactly 1:1 matching scale.”

      Bogo was impressed....”What does that tell you?”

      “It tells me that our “Perp” is obsessive with mathematical equation and accuracy. It’s a telling clue. Though? To prove it conclusively? We... we would have to have at least two more repeat victims.”

      Bogo pursed his lips...”Goddess of the great grains....help us all. Like I said Judy? Do what you do best. Be careful that you don’t violate the laws but do everything to find this dirty bastard.”

4:30pm
Home of Morgan Wright the Corgi pup
82 Vixenville Ave, Chestnut Town, Rainforest District

     Alex and Morgan were still giggling and laughing and yipping puppy barks as they pulled up in front of Morgan’s house on their bikes!

     (Giggles) Alex voiced....”MAAAAA?! THEY’RE SO BLOWING CHUNKS! (laughter) Did you see the look on Will’s face?!”

     Morgan blanked her look and dropped her jaw....”No......way....”

(More laughter)

    Alex snickered. “What do you think? Paw Patrol? Teddy Ruxpin? Oh my Goddess Luna!......BARNEY!”

    Morgan laughed....”Yeah! Yeah do it! He would look so funny in Barney diapers!”

    Alex nodded evilly....”And a pink baby bonnet. Has to be disgusting flame pink!”

     “You are so evil.” Morgan said smiling. “Any way? Mom’s probably keeping Ako in the house and dinner’s cooking so....see you tomorrow my dear slave.”

     Alex gestured....”Morgan? I want to thank you but?...Can’t we just talk about your feelings? Why don’t you like wolves? I’m not a bad pup? I just don’t understand why you don’t like me?”

     Morgan got snoot to snoot...”Forget it Alex. I’m not in the mood and I don’t want to walk into my house and make my best friend absolutely miserable because of all the growling and snarling from having to tell you when to quit. Like? Right now? You just need to quit...close the yap jaw and go home. All you need to do is come over my house and do what you said you would do and that’s it. Now.......go.”

     Alex watched Morgan walk into her house and a joyful noise bounced off the walls as the two long separated friends celebrated their re-union. “Oh.....what ever Morgan!” Alex snapped as he snatched at his bike. “Thanks for the help at least!” He yelped before he peddled off.

5:30pm
Haru’s happiness flower and Socialation center
Sahara Beach

      Legoshi sat in the hot tub panting out of breath...damn for such a small thing, Haru could run her tail off! He was totally exhausted from chasing her, falling over his own tail, smashing into flower pots that she’d placed all over the garden to foil him and now she was lying on his chest humming some soft tune as he lay enjoying the salty smells of the oils and unquences she’d poured into the water...

      “Feeling better?” The white dwarf rabbit asked as she played her paws over Legoshi’s furry chest.”

      “Splendidly so.” The giant wolf replied.....He softly howled and sang a little of what Haru was humming....

“In the trees the birds have learned to speak........
Gaily colored they keep their secrets
In a parade of clouds.........playing hide and seek
Do they know........where do unicorns go......
Where winged horses fly.........
Narwhales lost at sea........and never seen again......
Does myth and mystery lie........
Where the unicorns go..........”

      Haru pushed herself up...”You should be a crooner.....not a cop.”

     Legoshi smiled. “You know me a large crowds?

     “Hmph...” Haru replied. “You best get done so you can get back on duty before you get into trouble.”

      The white rabbit started to get out of the tub when Legoshi snatched her back and gently craddled her in his large arms and paws....”I think for now the city has ample officers. We don’t spend enough time talking.”

     Haru snorted. “You’ll owe another hundred Zoo bucks?”

     Legoshi smirked. “Please tell me how I should freaking care right now?”
