One rainy Monday night...

So this is something I never thought I would find myself doing - writing. But as it turns out I have too much free time and struggling with finding ways of spending it. This story follows Reggie on one of his regular dealings that goes a little off track, so he is forced to run from the ZPD. This takes him into a caffe where he spots a familiar face.

It was a rainy Monday night around 11 p.m. and Reggie was just walking down the sidewalk not being bothered by the rain too much. The city lights shone bright as the fox rounded the corner of Pack street, into a shady looking alleyway. There stood a hooded figure, leaning to the wall. "You're late..." he said. Reggie simply shrugged at the jackal and gave him a smile. "Im terribly sorry buddy, but a black cat crossed my path so i had to take the long way."

The jackal pulled back his hood and looked at him annoyed "Mhmm, was it the same one as yesterday or the day before that? You know what, never mind. Here." The jackal slapped a wad of cash into the foxes hands. Reggie started counting the money. As he was counting the money the jackal started to speak "You know we should really be more cautious about how we deal with the shipments. Silas almost got caught today... The cops are everywhere, I belive someone tipped them off on our little operation."

Reggie quickly finished counting the money, pushed it into his pocket, then gave the jackal an amused look. "Now, you're just being paran-" as he was about to finish his sentence a sound of a police siren interrupted him. He turned around and saw a ZPD cruiser blocking off the alleyway, the officers inside already getting out of the vehicles and running down the dark alleyway shouting for the two to freeze. Reggie turned around and saw the jackal already bolted it further down the alley. He was quick to follow. They were being chased on foot as they ran down the many dark alleyways jumping over dumpsters and trash bags that were scattered all over the ground. They ran out of the alleyway on to the sidewalk of the main street and into a small cafe a little down the street. Sitting down at one of the tables at the window completely out of breath the jackal said "fuck, fuck, fuck they must have been following us." sounding completely out of breath.

Reggie also trying to catch his breath said nothing, only staring out of the window. "Hey! Are you listening?! What are we gonna do?!" hissed the jackal. Reggie whispered "Well, Ryan, you can begin by calming down and not making a scene" still looking outside the window, studying the street outside.

Just then the waitress came up to their table. She was a badger wearing some denim jeans and a green T-shirt. "Good evenin, what can I get for ya?" "Just bring us two caffè macchiatos to go." said Reggie, before the jackal even had time to react. Just as she left, Reggie turned his attention back to the street and noticed a ZPD cruiser slowly creeping up to the cafe and stopping just outside of it. Ryan noticed it too and already started getting up no doubt prepared to start running again. Reggie turned his attention to him. "Sit." He said it the most commanding yet calm voice he could muster. To his relief the jackal sat back down, looking around nervously while Reggie distracted himself with his phone. Just as the door to the cafe swung open the waitress came over to their table with their drinks so neither of them managed to get a look at who had just entered the cafe. The waitress placed the drinks on the table and as she left, Reggie saw the two mammals that had entered the cafe. A bunny and a fox, both ZPD officers as he had seen their uniforms. "Well, well, well... who would've thought?" said Reggie a hint of a smile creeping onto his face as he looked over at Ryan. "What?" said Ryan nervously eyeing the two ZPD officers that have just taken a seat two tables away from them. "I think this is our lucky day." Said Reggie with a smirk on his face. "Lucky day?! We almost got arrested! Whats the matter with you?" Ryan angrily whispered.

Reggie slapped down a twenty on the table and picked up his coffee. "This is for the coffee. You can keep the rest." "Wilde? What are you thinking?!" Ryan hissed as he looked up at him. Reggie only gave him a smug smile and turned to walk towards the ZPD officers. Ryan grabbed his arm and stopped him causing him to almost spill his coffee. "Are you crazy?! We're wanted! Its lucky enough those two didn’t notice us!” he said looking over at the two officers that were seating just two tables away. “We should get out of here while we have the chance!"

Reggie rolled his eyes to the side "We're not wanted. How much you wanna bet those cops chasing us only stopped by chance seeing two shifty looking mammals at night in a dark alleyway doing god knows what."

"Regg-" Ryan began but was quickly cut off again by Reggie. "Besides even if they would have called it in what would they say? It was dark and even if they saw us, at that distance we would have only looked like silhouettes. So what would their description of us be? A hooded figure and possibly a fox? Yeah I bet that narrows it down." Reggie shot him a smirk as he got up again.

"You're forgetting, this is Zootopia. Lots of mammals live around here." Reggie looked up at the table with the two ZPD officers. Ryan looked away and turned his attention to the street outside. “Smartass...” he mumbled. Reggie straightened his shirt. "Now then... I'm curious... Just how much heat have I got on me." He said as he headed for the ZPD officers.

So yeah thats about it. You guys let me know what you think. If I get enough feedback on this I might just consider getting off my lazy ass and take up writing. Cheers.
