Things were quiet.
A few days had passed since Hal and Blink's departure. It left Judy a bit upset. Blink's, especially. Were they not good enough? Was she not good enough? She didn't want to believe that, but the pessimist in her, no matter how small, kept pushing the thought forward. Kept saying that she give up and move on. But the rest pushed back, insisting that she was absolutely good enough, listing the reasons they left. But hey, that was her existence in a nutshell. Instinct saying no, the rest saying absolutely.
Six days. That was how long it had been since the first mission concluded. The three founding Avengers; Vision, the Captain, and herself, had been training nearly nonstop. All three had their strengths. They knew this. The only thing holding them back was their lack of unity in attacks. That was the primary reasoning behind the hours of exercises. They were all tired by now.
The sixth day was decided to be a break day. One where they'd all simply stop training, and "relax". Of course, they also agreed to do less strenuous, yet still important things. Even though the Captain was still in the Danger Room, likely. Judy was doing research on the Omniverse as a whole, on the Dataverse. There had been an attack at one point, by the denizens of the Underverse. A hell of sorts. Primes were trapped there. She'd have to tell the team about that later.
While she was busy reading, Rogers called her forward, surprising the rabbit. She jumped, scrambling to meet him where he stood.
"I need you in Camelot. Consider it a diplomatic mission, and you're the rabbit for the job."
Memories of that press conference sprang to her mind. She had sent Zootopia as a whole into a near civil war between prey and predators. There had been riots, even a few dead. But she wouldn't allow that to happen again. This time, she wouldn't screw it up.
"Yes, sir. What are my orders?" she asked, trying to drop the tension in her shoulders a bit.
"The people of Camelot are requesting a meeting with a representative of the Avengers. You're the most equipped for the job, being a former police officer."
Judy simply nodded, turning to head towards the hangar. "I got it! Don't worry, I can make this work."
The Captain simply raised an eyebrow. What had she meant, make it work?

Hopps was on her way to the portal to the Nexus. Since she wasn't exactly qualified to fly the thing, the Quinjet had been set on autopilot by the Vision. She had to admit, the view was certainly different from the front, compared to the back. She could actually see now, and it was beautiful. The ocean was nothing like pictures. It almost felt alive, even.
A message from her phone caught her attention. She fished it out of her pocket, turning it on. What she read made her heart leap into her throat. It was a message from the Vision.
It read; The current mission has been terminated, due to a kidnapping spree occurring in Minas Tirith. Everyone set to appear at the meeting is gone. Your new orders: Find the kidnapped parties, and apprehend the person responsible.
She clenched her paw, stuffing the phone back into her pocket. This was really bad. Whoever had kidnapped those people seemed to know they were meeting, else they wouldn't have caught everyone going. So it was her job to find them all, then. With a determined grimace, she hopped out her seat, and exited the Quinjet. The portal to the Nexus was right near the landing spot, conveniently. Staring at it, she took a deep breath.
"Time to find more missing mammals," she muttered, stepping inside.
