Chapter 2: Missing Mammals

Judy and Nick goes to Clawhauser's desk, where
Clawhauser gives Judy the file.

"Ok so how should we start this?" Judy asked.

"Well the first things first, we need to start where it all be began, Clawhauser who was the first
mammal that went missing first." Nick asked.

"Well, a few weeks ago, a otter named Emmet
Otterton was report missing by his wife, she's been really stressed about it, it tore her apart"

"Great, we find our missing otter, and we find the
rest of the missing mammals" nick say.

"Great, let's get started" Judy says.

"Here you go! One missing otter file!"

Judy opens the file, revealing little information.

"Wha-that's it?"

Nick was just as confused as her, he looks through to just find only one piece of paper with barely any clues.

"Yikes! That is the smallest case file I've ever seen. Leads: none, witnesses: none, resources: none!" He laughs, as Judy's ears droop.

"This doesn't make any sense, Clawhauser are there any files on the other missing mammals?" Nick asked.

"Oh there is but their all the same as this one."

He gives them 13 files of the missing animals but
all with barely any details.

"Ok so far we got two polar bears, two tigers, two
brown bears, one black bear, two Jaguars, a cheetah, a snow leopard and two wolves, with no connection other then their all missing predators.  Then when Nick looked at one of the wolves, he started to have flashbacks again.

"Well good luck cracking this one, guys!"

Then Nick shakes off the bad memory, he gets look at the picture, then he noticed something, he takes the bottle from Clawhauser and uses it as a
magnifying glass.

"Judy, get a look at this" she takes over the bottle
and she gasped.

"Is that?"

"Yeah"

They see Duke in the background.

"What? What's up" Clawhauser asked.

"I think we have a lead"

The scene changes to an alley where Duke is carrying a duffel bag. He looked shifty, like he looked like he just pulled a crime. He looks around his surroundings to make sure he wasn't being followed. Then suddenly, "AH" he gets spokes when he sees Judy and Nick standing behind him, arms crossed.

"Oh it's you two" He glares annoyingly at him.

"Hello...Duke Weaselton." Nick said.

"What do you two want, last time I check, I haven't done anything wrong." He said.

"Look, we're here to ask you some questions about a case"

She shows a close-up picture of Emmitt to Duke.

"So you know this otter?" She asked.

Then Duke makes a shocking face... then he ran.

"We got a runner" Judy yelled.

"I'm on it" Nick then chased after him.

He chases Duke through Savannah Central. Duke
dodges large animals. Duke sees the entrance of Little Rodentia. He throws the bag over the gate and dives through the hole. Some mice run away as Duke enters through the hole and catches the bag. He chuckles and runs off. Nick growls then he leaps off a car and lands through the entrance without stepping on anyone, then he looks for Duke.

"SURROUND DUKE, COME QUIETLY ABDI
PROMISE I'LL GO EASY ON YOU!"

Duke steps on tiny cars with mice driving them and uses them as roller skates.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

He finds Duke roller skates through between
buildings and hops on them. Nick follows him and sees Duke jumping on the buildings and tipping the last one in the process. In one of the buildings, a mouse is on a hamster wheel and notices their house is being tilted. The buildings topple each other like dominoes. He gasped and he quickly pushes them back in place. The mice scream and scurry around. Nick pounces from building to building, without stepping on any citizens. He gets on the train tracks and hears a train whistle. He sees Duke on top on a mouse-sized train. He moves quickly gets out of the way.

"Ah"

"Bon voyage-y, foxy!"

Nick growls and goes to a different direction, Duke notices a pipe, and inside a mouse looks up and yelps. Duke dodges it, and then he notices more pipes. He dodges four pipes, feeling confident. Then he sees Nick, leaping at him, "AH"

They both lands on a small flat building, well Duke was on top it while next was down close from it.

"Have a donut, copper!" He kicks the donut sign,
Nick yells and ducks. Not far away, Fru Fru, a lady shrew, is seen walking down the street with her shrew friends carrying shopping bags.

"Oh no" Nick gasped.

"Oh my God, did you see those leopard print
jeggings?"

Her friends hear the donut thumping on the street, and they scream and run away. Fru Fru notices the donut heading for her and screams. But luckily, Judy catches the donut, which is just a few inches away from her head. Fru Fru looks up and sees Judy holding the donut sign.

"Whew! I love your hair."

Aw...... Thank you!"

"Come to papa!" Duke takes the bag back and exits.

Then he was being chased by Nick again as they ran through Savannah Central again.

"Last chance duke, freeze or else"

"Or less what, whatcha gonna do popsicle boy"

Then Nick gets angry and pounces on him, pinning him to the ground.

"AH AH HEY HEY!"

"SPILL IT, WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT EMMET
OTTERTON!" Nick clutches deep into his shirt,
growing at him and pulling him face to face.
"EITHER YOU TELL ME OR I-"

Then suddenly he saw something that caught his
eye. There was a crowd fangirling soneone, cheering and clapping.

"Alright, alright, I'll tell you!" Duke squeaked.

Duke finally gave in, when Judy came in.

"Yes you did it Nick." She said.

But Nick was too focused on the cheering crowd.

"Yeah, I'll just" he lets go of Duke for Judy to deal
with so he could see who the crowd was wowing at.

"Tell me. What you know." Judy says as she grabs on tight to Duke's shirt.

"Alright listen I don't know where he is but there is this one thing he does, he goes to that asylum to make a delivery to Dr. Terce."

Judy gasped at the horror realization when Nick
got closer to the crowd.

"Dr. Terce?"

"Yeah he orders flowers every day, trying to get a
hobby while he's serving time."

And Nick hid behind a building and what he saw
next, stunned him. He gasped when he saw an old friend, he thought he never knew he might see in many years. It was the one and the only. Mr. Wolf.

Nick was shocked to see him, he saw Wolf was being greeted by fan, he shook hands and a female pig asked for his autograph, then he smiles when they take pictures of him.

"Oh Mr. Wolf can I have your autograph?"

"Sure." Wolf said as he gives her an autograph.

"If anyone might know where that otter is, it be dr
Terce, he knows a lot about missing mammals"

And he was right, the only was to find a missing
mammal is to talk to someone who's kidnapped
before.

But Nick was dealing with his own problems, he
watched his old friend being praised and loved.
But it wasn't long till, Nick realized Wolf caught
him. He saw Wolf was looking at him, he tries not to get panicked.

Then slowly, Nick saw how Wolf started to glare at him. Then he growled softly at him before changing his face to a smile and going in his car. Nick ran off in a panicked, back to Judy.

"Hey?"

"Hey!"

She saw how scared she looked.

"You okay?"

"Yeah!" Nick was breathing rapidly from running
and seeing an old friend as he looks back.

"I thought I saw something....anyway did you get
anything out of Weaselton?"

"Yeah and I think I got an lead."

They walked back to their car, and head inside.

"Ok so where are we going."

She then looks at him with a serious face.

"To that one place you hate."

This sends a chill down Nick's spine but it wasn't
enough to stop the nerves shaking inside him. Nick was going to have to face his demons soon.
