Smiling Critters: Ancestra Au - Cancelled

New Possibilities - Season 2

Picky's room was reserved just for her as soon as she got over her incessant hunger, the place looked untouched, the bed was still messy, the carpet in the center was untidy, the dresser had perfumes in disarray and some had fallen on the furniture and on the floor.

Her room was similar to Dogday's as it had a window, and the curtain was still closed, the curtain was red with rose patterns, very flowery and beautiful.

The wooden bed was gnawed in some corners because she kept biting those parts due to the growth of her teeth which made her gums itch;

“Haa… this place, just the way I left it, how did they manage to keep it that way for so long? The room doesn’t stink so they cleaned it… my goodness, they’re crazy” thought Picky looking around and remembering many scenes that happened in that room.

Hoppy was her best friend, the pig was a bit lazy and the rabbit would personally wake her up, the three-year-old rabbit was full of energy and would stay up all night, unlike Picky who, if possible, could sleep all day.

They played a lot in that room, with dolls, acting, and they even crocheted to pass the time. Hoppy had a lot of hair and the caregivers had to cut it. Instead of throwing it in the trash, they thought about recycling it, teaching Hoppy how to crochet. And Picky learned because her friend wanted to.

The fateful day arrived, where the pig girl lost control of her hunger, went crazy and almost started eating everything, not only the other students' plates, but the tables, the walls, the floor and almost... almost she ate a person... in her memory, that person was her best friend: Hoppy.

Someone had to finish her off, they called the police and someone fought her who managed, in a strange way, to conjure her axe, aged five… with a sacred weapon.

“I… remembered who fought me? Strange… he looks a lot like Nathan.”

In another place, more precisely, in a police station, Bubba, the elephant, was walking around the place with a lot of paperwork in his hands and handing it out to some other people, he received calls from other service colleagues to sign some things, he didn't even refuse.

After getting rid of all the papers, he made his way to his office, where upon entering, he came across his board, full of photos of people, papers with notes and pins with red strings. It was a resolution of the case he was trying to figure out, the case in question was an investigation into robberies at banks, mining companies, hospitals and of course... cars in general.

Prime suspect; Bobby Bearhug, forty-two years old, born male, underwent black market procedures to amputate his male genitalia and replace it with a female one, things that city hospitals are required to refuse to perform.

Main suspect; 1980 Porsche 911, the driver is unknown, he worked in bank robberies but disappeared after an accident, the car was found empty after the rollover.

Major Suspect 2: 1995 Ferrari F355, the driver was reported as a dwarf purple cat in one of his first speeding violations, the car disappeared into the woods during a chase and the vehicle was never seen again.

Major Suspect 3: 1998 Lotus Carlton, or Chevrolet Omega of the same year, the driver was finally recognized as a sixteen-year-old child, a purple cat, the same as the Ferrari, his companion was captured and the cat was never seen again.

Current prime suspect: Catnap, twenty years old, adoptive father of a child, drives a purple 2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat, the same vehicle found in the bank robberies, but with a blank license plate.

— More than ten years and still, nothing else comes up, an update would be good… but there's nothing else, I have to interrogate this Catnap… he must know something… — Bubba thought out loud as he looked at the board, seeing the other points, with other suspects.

— Interesting, even though it's been ten years since these crimes began, and six since these racers appeared... you still haven't calmed down — said a voice, it was Nathan, he was sitting on a small table near the door of the room.

And by his side, his daughter who smiled calmly;

— Nathan… ugh, I don't know, I really need to know who they are, if I know at least the location of their base, I can call an invasion and arrest everyone — he said in a stressed manner — but I think it's very difficult, many of my assistants have given up on this, new politicians have been slowly weakening our firepower and morale to do all this…

— Calm down, calm down... I've decided now — said the fox, and the elephant immediately looked at him strangely — I contacted the Minister of Public Security, and asked for permission to tune police cars, military weapons in the hands of the Ancestra police, and on top of that I said: 'if the police ask to invade a base or a district dominated by crime, sign it right away'.

— Hahahaha… that was good, that was beautiful! Oh my! The cars will be tuned, military weapons in our hands and a free hand to really go head to head… hahahah, thanks there fox, but well… I know you didn't come here for that, what do you want?

— Hmm… funny, isn’t it? Hehe, no problem, remember that girl? The one called Picky, the mute pig? So, she ran away from my training and my domain, she returned to the orphanage with a brief hope that she could have a family, and all this to complete herself… she is wanting to evolve her sacred weapon.

— And you want me to adopt her? But you have an idea that I can't end up being a good father, right? — Bubba replied, looking neutral.

— I know you'll be a good father... I already told you, I see everything, here, before and after... adopt her, and of course, next year, make her a police officer. I know she's sixteen now, and next year she'll be seventeen... she needs to be eighteen, make her an exception, tell her I was the one who recommended her.

Bubba just sighed.
