Alright, Bandit. Keep it together.

He might’ve been a little new to Zootopia, having only just transferred there at the beginning of the month for work, but it wasn’t as if he was doing anything wrong. Right? Just had to act natural and make himself look as innocent as possible — which he was!

Ears constantly flicking back and forth and every direction, Maverick only hesitated a moment as the cape buffalo stated what his assignment was. Parking duty.. Really..? For a moment, he wanted to groan, and- Well, he couldn’t help a brief rolling of his eyes and a slight scoff. He’d already had nothing but parking duty when he was still at the precinct in Safaria City, even when he made it very well known that he’d be great for running the night shift, or recon, or stealth ops!  But.. Well, seems that wasn’t going to change here either.

The stoutly, monochromatic bird clears his throat, hopping off of the capybara he had entangled in duct tape! ❛ Too slow, Officer Yak! ❜ Skipper sounds, rude to have assumed that the buffalo chief was an officer and a yak. ❛ I already wrangled the varmints up; honestly I thought the ZPD be a no show! ❜ Being a spy for ORKA he does consider himself better than the police and he was not going to withheld on bragging rights. Even in front of their common enemy.

If Judy has learnt anything about Chief Bogo over the last few months; its that you must never show any sign of weakness in front of him. He has high expectation for his team and its a good thing too; its not easy being an officer, you have to put in a lot of work. A lot of hard work. But she can’t seem to shake this feeling.

She looks up at Bogo, fear in her eyes and a frown on her face. She can’t believe that she’s been bitten. Infected...and very soon she will be unable to control herself...a mindless creature looking for-

No.

She shouldn’t think like that now.

She has always been a fighter; so this bite isn't going to stop her from getting Bogo and the last of the remaining survivors out of here...but she doesn't have long left...the infection will take over. They need to keep moving if the others are going to make it.

'With all due respect sir, you know it yourself...I’m- I'm bitten. Infected. I have a few hours at best. We've seen it happen to too many animals.' A painful hissing sound escapes between her teeth as she stands, wobbling slightly from the effects of the infection already seeping in.

Oh, right.

As a police officer, Kiara supposed, the towering buffalo was probably involved in more incidents that made the news than the one that was specifically on her mind. The young lioness paused for a moment, re-evaluating her approach.

“The piece about Mayor Bellwether’s arrest. That was you giving the interview, wasn’t it?”

She was pretty sure it was; Zootopia’s police chief was quite distinctive.

“I’m relieved that the ‘savage’ scare is over. But is it really true that the whole thing was one big plot against us predators?”
