Nick and Judy ran for their lives as Manchas chased them.
"What is wrong with him?" shouted Nick.
"I don't know!"
They ran across a slippery suspension bridge with Manchas close behind. Nick stopped. "We're not gonna make it!"
"Jump!" Judy yelled.
They leapt off the bridge and landed on a low branch. Then they ducked into a hollow log, trying to hide, but Manchas continued to stalk them. Judy frantically1 picked up her police radio. "Officer Hopps to dispatch! Clawhauser, can you hear me?"
Inside the police station, Clawhauser was casually2 chatting with a coworker as he showed him a video on his phone.
"Have you seen Gazelle's new video—are you familiar with Gazelle?" Clawhauser asked the coworker, not seeing the red light blinking on his phone. "Greatest singer of our lifetime—angel with horns. Yeah, you gotta check it out. So good. Do you see who's beside her right now?" He pointed3 to the screen, where he was dancing on a stage with Gazelle.
"Wow. You are one hot dancer," Gazelle's voice started, finishing with a robotic-type voice, "Benjamin Clawhauser."
"It's me!" Clawhauser exclaimed. "Did you think it was real? It looks so real! It's not—it's just a new app." He chuckled4. Then he finally noticed his phone and clicked the speaker button. "Hold on—"
"Clawhauser!" Judy's voice rang out. Manchas, trying to get inside the log, took a swipe at her. "We have a 10-91! Jaguar5 gone savage6! Vine and Tu-junga!"
"It's Tu-HUN-ga!" shouted Nick.
Manchas took another swipe at Judy, this time ripping her radio out of her hands. Nick and Judy scrambled7 out of the log and continued to run.
"Sending back up! Hopps? HOPPS?!" said Clawhauser, hearing the racket on the other end.
They ran toward the gondolas10. Judy darted11 out of Manchas's way but slipped and got separated from Nick.
"Get in! Carrots? Carrots!" Nick called, trying to hold on to the gondola. But it pulled away.
Nick backed up and Manchas moved toward him, as if stalking his prey13. "Buddy14, one predator15 to another, if I offended you with the tuna thing, I meant no disrespe—"
Nick screamed as Manchas charged at him full speed. A split second before he reached Nick—clank! Manchas was yanked back by a handcuff on his back paw. Judy had cuffed16 him to a metal post! Nick couldn't believe it—Judy had saved his life.
"I can tell you're tense, so I'm just gonna give you a little personal space," Nick said to Manchas.
Manchas struggled angrily, knocking Nick and Judy over the edge of the walkway. Judy grabbed on to a vine with one arm and struggled to hold Nick with her other. As the two dangled17 over the canopy18, Nick looked at the bottomless abyss below. Judy's mind raced as she tried to figure out what to do next.
"Rabbit, whatever you do, do not let go!" shouted Nick.
"I'm gonna let go!" said Judy.
"No...you what? You must have misunderstood me. I said don't—"
"One, two," Judy said, counting off as she started them swinging.
"RABBIT!"
She let go and swung them over to a net made of vines. It supported their weight for a moment. But then—snap! The vines broke and they plummeted19 toward the ground! Luckily, a cluster of vines had gotten tangled20 around their legs and stopped them right before they hit the rainforest floor.
Sirens rang out as a convoy21 of police cars screeched22 to a halt. Out of one stepped Chief Bogo. Judy smiled. The cavalry23 had arrived!
"Well, this should be good," said Bogo as he stared at Judy and Nick, who hung upside down, suspended from vines, in front of him.
麦岔在后面追,尼克和朱迪在前面拼了命地跑。
尼克喊道:“他怎么了啊?”
朱迪说:“我不知道呀!”
他们跑过一座滑溜溜的悬索桥,麦岔在后面紧追不舍。尼克停了下来:“我们跑不了了!”
朱迪大喊道:“跳下去!”
他们跳下桥,落在一根低树杈上,弯腰躲进一个中空的大树里,但麦岔依然在追寻他们的踪迹。朱迪慌慌张张地打开她的警用无线电喊道:“霍普斯警官请求支援!克劳豪瑟,你能听到吗?”
而在无线电另一头的警局里,克劳豪瑟正把手机上的视频拿给一位同事看,在和他闲聊。
“夏奇羊的新视频你看了没?你认识夏奇羊吗?”克劳豪瑟问这位同事,并没注意到手机上闪烁的红灯。“她是我这辈子知道的最棒的歌手——长角的天使!来,你看看,多漂亮!你看到她旁边是谁了吗?”他指着屏幕,屏幕上他正和夏奇羊同台共舞。
“哇,你跳得真不错呢!”夏奇羊的声音传了出来,结尾的声音却略显机械,“本杰明·克劳豪瑟。”
克劳豪瑟大叫道:“是我啊!你觉得这是不是跟真的一样?看上去和真的一样呢!不是的,这就是个新程序罢了!”他咯咯地笑出声来。最后他终于注意到手机上的闪烁着的灯,便按了一下通话键,说道:“等等——”
朱迪的声音传了出来:“克劳豪瑟!”麦岔想钻进树洞,挥了一爪,险些抓到朱迪。“我们遇到了代号为10-91的案件!美洲虎发狂了!在攀缘路与图君加路交界处!”
尼克喊道:“是图——洪——加路!”
麦岔又向朱迪挥了一爪,这回把她的无线电给打落在地。尼克和朱迪连滚带爬地出了树洞,继续逃跑。
克劳豪瑟听到那头的嘈杂声,说道:“正在派支援过去!霍普斯?霍普斯?”
尼克和朱迪发现一个缆车车站,朱迪喊:“往那边去!去坐空中缆车!”
于是他们往缆车方向跑去,朱迪想要甩开麦岔,不想却被绊了一跤,也因此与尼克分开了。
“快上来!胡萝卜?胡萝卜!”尼克叫喊着,想要抓住缆车,但缆车却开动了。
“快走!”朱迪叫着,挣扎着想要重新站在湿滑的桥上。
尼克站了起来,麦岔朝他追去,就像追捕他的猎物一样。“老兄,别这样,一个捕食者对付另一个捕食者,是不是刚刚金枪鱼的事情冒犯你了,我不是有意的——”
麦岔快速扑向尼克,尼克吓得惊声大叫。眼见着他就要抓住尼克了,忽然咔嚓一声,一副手铐铐住了他的后爪,麦岔被猛地向后一拉。原来是朱迪把他牢牢地铐在了一根铁杆上。尼克简直不敢相信——朱迪竟然救了他的命。
尼克对麦岔说:“看得出来你很紧张,所以我给你点私人空间吧!”
麦岔愤怒地挣扎着,一下将尼克和朱迪撞出了山上的步道。朱迪一手抓住一根藤蔓,一手用力搂住尼克。他俩在森林上空晃荡起来,尼克忍不住看了一眼下面深不见底的山谷。朱迪的脑子飞快地转动着,她在想下一步应该怎么办。
尼克叫道:“兔子,不管怎样,你可千万别撒手!”
朱迪说:“我就要撒手啦!”
“不要……你要干吗?你一定理解错了我的意思,我说不要——”
“一,二。”朱迪一边晃动着藤蔓,一边倒数着。
“兔子!”
她松开了手,他俩荡出去落在一个藤蔓结成的网上。不一会儿,藤蔓撑不住他们的重量,啪的一声断了,他俩便应声跌向地面。好在一丛藤蔓缠绕在他们腿上,在他们就要撞到雨林的地面上时,将他们拽住了。
警笛声突起,一队警车呼啸而来。警笛声戛然而止,博格警长从其中一辆车上下来。朱迪舒然一笑,救兵终于到了!
朱迪和尼克倒挂在藤蔓上,警长站在他们面前看着他俩说道:“嗯,这感觉真不错!”
