Here we are at Chapter 10. Okay, what I'm about to type MAY shock a lot of you. This is the last chapter. I know! I know! Many of you are probably going "WHAT?! NO! DON'T END THIS STORY YET!", "YOU LEFT US ON A CLIFFHANGER! DON'T DO THAT!", or "COME ON! WE NEED MORE!". Just think of this story as an Origin Story. Besides, I got other stories to work on. I know how my 'While We're Young' readers are. They want me to do more on the story. Trust me. I do my best to work on each and every one of my stories. Even if it's only a little bit. But the hardest part is always finishing a story. Which is why this story is ending here. So, let's get this last chapter started.

Day and Night.

Darkness and Light.

One is shadows.

One shines bright.

It was the middle of the night and it was very dark. A huge building somewhere in Savanna Central, was the Roxxon Corporation Main Building. The Roxxon Company was still known to do work for the city. Coming outside of the building was a middle-aged male raccoon in a dark blue business suit. This was Randall Cooperman. Head of the Gulf Division of the Roxxon Corporation. He's also one of the reasons Stu got the blame for the explosion almost 8 years ago. He stole everything from Judy's family and lived off it like he had nothing to do with it.

As he walks to the parking lot, going to his car, he doesn't know... someone is watching him. From atop of a lamppost in the distance, was Judy. Or rather... Dagger. She glared at Cooperman as if she was a predator about to strike its prey. Cooperman stopped at a black sport's car. Looking at it, Dagger could tell it was expensive. A sign that Cooperman was still living off Stu's failure. Anger stirred inside Dagger. As Cooperman dug in his pocket for his keys, Dagger thought "This would be the perfect time to strike.". She then summoned her dagger from her right paw. If she wanted to, Dagger could strike him and kill him instantly. She could even make her daggers go through someone and still strike them no marks or trace of her attack. Not even on their clothes. It would be the perfect revenge for her after what Cooperman and the Roxxon Company did to her and her family.

But she couldn't do it. If she did that, then she wouldn't be able to prove her dad's innocent. She also wouldn't be able to get her mom out of that trailer park. It was hard, but as much as she hated him, she couldn't kill him. However, while she wouldn't kill him, another idea came to mind that made her grin.

"Doesn't mean I won't kill him, doesn't mean I won't give him a bad time." Dagger thought.

Dagger threw her dagger at one of the tires of the car. Making the car tire lose its air. As Cooperman finally gets his keys out, he looks at the tire and sees that's it's flat.

"Ahh... Damnit! How did I get a flat? I just changed these tires!" Cooperman shouted out in anger. "Damnit! Now I got to call someone to get it fixed at this hour. Some night."

Seeing Cooperman totally pissed out, made Dagger grin widely. With her work done, she hopped out of the area. Leaving the poor raccoon to have wait in the dark.

Meanwhile, near the parking lot of Precinct 1, leaving the building, was a middle-aged wolf by the name of Steven O'Clawdon. AKA, the guy who killed David and covered it up. As he got out the keys, he didn't notice... someone was watching him from the shadows. Appearing right behind him with shadows surrounding him was Nick. Or rather... Cloak. He was just a few feet away from O'Clawdon.

To Cloak, this bastard ruined a part of his life and took someone that he thought of as a brother. He wanted this guy to suffer. So... he was going be like a ghost and haunt him a bit. Cloak sees his gun and slowly walks and reaches for it. O'Clawdon didn't catch any scent from Cloak, but he did felt that someone was around. He turned around, thinking someone was around, but there was no one. He still looked around thinking someone was around.

"Who's there?" O'Clawdon said. No one answered.

As O'Clawdon looks down at his gun holster, he sees that his gun... is missing. He was completely shocked by this. He could have sworn he had it on him. He looks left, right, down on his car. But no luck finding it. He then looks inside his car, thinking it was there. But it wasn't. Unnoticed to him again, Cloak appeared right behind him and touched his neck. Cloak's powers of fear then activated.

O'Clawdon was in a dark forest. He then started having shadows started to surround. Engulfing him in darkness. He tried to move, but he couldn't. He couldn't breathe. It was like the darkness was planning to swallow him whole. Then, everything went black. Cloak then turns off his power.

With fear inside his enemy's heart, Cloak said one thing to O'Clawdon.

"Let fear consume you." Cloak whispered in a raspy voice.

O'Clawdon then turned around and like before, no one was there. He did find his gun on back in his holster. As if it was never gone. O'Clawdon didn'thaved any memory of the nightmare he just had, but the fear... the fear was still there. It was like a ghost had haunted him. Haunting him enough to even throw up a bit. From a distance and feeling that his work was done, Cloak teleported out of there.

Meeting on a rooftop with Dagger was Cloak, who just popped up.

"Yo." Cloak said greeting his partner.

"Yo." Dagger said greeting him back.

"Did you do your thing?" Cloak asked.

"Yes." Dagger answered. "Did you do yours?"

"Yes." Cloak said.

"I've could have killed him if I wanted to. But I chose not to." Dagger stated. "Killing Cooperman won't get my clear my dad's name or get my mom out of the trailer."

"Same for me. But I was a bit tempted to take out O'Clawdon then and now." Cloak said.

"But it didn't mean I didn't screw him over a little bit." Dagger said smirking. "I slashed on of his tires."

"Nice!" Cloak said with a grin. "O'Clawdon, I haunted his ass. Enough to make him throw up. Maybe even piss himself a bit."

"Ha! Nice!" Dagger said smiling.

While it was only a small amount of revenge, it still made Cloak and Dagger feel good about themselves.

"It's not the right time yet." Cloak and Dagger both said to each other.

"We need to do everything the right way before we can make those guys atone." Dagger said to Cloak.

"Right. We don't have enough on them. We need to do that first before we can get back out them." Cloak said. "But mark my words. We WILL get back at them. No matter what... and we'll do it together."

"And after, we'll help others in the cities like us." Dagger said with a smile.

"Oh? So you really DO still want to do the superhero thing?" Cloak asked Dagger.

"Well... yeah. I do." Dagger replied.

"It's just that... I knew I still wanted to do the superhero thing. It's just that if I remember right, you only wanted to do it to solve our own problems." Cloak said with a smirk. "I mean, if you weren't gonna still play hero, I would have just gone solo."

"And let you get all the credit? Not a chance, Slick." Dagger said pointing at the fox. "We're a team and the two of us need each other. That's why I'm sticking around to help you out."

"Okay then. Just making sure you don't back down from it." Cloak said with a smirk.

"I don't intend to." Dagger said smirking back at Cloak.

"Now, shall we do some more patrolling?" Cloak asked.

"I'm all for it." Dagger said with a smile.

Cloak then wrapped his cloak around Dagger and the two teleported out of the rooftop. While neither of them is ready to get back at their enemies, the two still want to be superheroes, even afterward. They enjoyed being Cloak and Dagger too much to stop. That... and the city was already loving the duo.

Ever since their debut, Cloak and Dagger have been getting a lot of fans. Cloak was very popular with young vixens and Cloak fans would often wear cloaks similar to him in public. Dagger fans would have a white crescent moon painted on the side of their faces. Young bucks were also fans of Dagger because they thought she was hot. But it was more than just the two of them being popular.

Cloak and Dagger inspired many other mammals in the city, not just foxes and rabbits, but mammals of all shapes and sizes. If a fox and rabbit could become the city's heroes, then it really proves that Zootopia is the city where anyone can be anything. The city really loved the pair. While there were a few people who weren't fans of them, like Chief Bogo and a few other officers. Also, some criminals that the two have beaten up. But compared to the fans, it's a really small margin. Either way, the city was catching 'Cloak and Dagger fever'.

A few days later, Nick, wearing David's black hoodie again, came to pay Lamar and Valerie another visit as he goes to their store.

"Yoooooo!" Nick said with a smile greeting Lamar and Valerie.

"Nicky!" Lamar said happily. "Good to see you again."

"What brings you back?" Valerie asked.

"Just wanted to thank you for before. You know, with the talking and... letting me take David's cloak." Nick said.

"It's no problem, Nick." Lamar said with a smile. Lamar then noticed Nick's hoodie and realizes that it's David's. "Hey? Is that..."

"Oh! Yeah. It is. I found it a while back." Nick answered. "I mean if you want it back..."

"No no no. Keep it." Lamar said not wanting Nick to take it off."

"David would have wanted you to keep it." Valerie said.

"Thank you." Nick said.

"Sooooo... Cloak..." Lamar said wanting to bring up the subject.

"What did I tell you? Isn't he awesome?" Nick asked them. "As I said, he's powerful and thanks to David's cloak, he's able to control his powers. As well as look good fighting crime."

"You did tell us that." Lamar said. "I wouldn't believe if I didn't see it myself. A fox with the ability to teleport anywhere he wants. With someone like that, he would be perfect for a spy boy."

"Hmm. If I ask him, he maaaaay consider it." Nick said with a grin.

"So Nick, you happen to know who Cloak is, do you?" Valerie asked with a sly smirk.

"Uhhh... I'm not suppose to give away his secret identity." Nick said not wanting to say too much.

"Hmm. Hmm. It's just that right?" Lamar asked as he looks at his wife. "It's just that... it's funny how you happen to know someone like Cloak and claimed that he knew David as well as you did."

Nick's ears drooped a bit. Lamar and Valerie might be on to him being Cloak.

"Uncle Lamar, you're not suggesting that I somehow gain superpower became Cloak, are you?" Nick asked trying to play it cool.

"I didn't say anything." Lamar said with his paws up.

"Cause I'm not. I'm not." Nick told him. "I got my paws filled with track, basketball, and other stuff. I don't have the time to be a superhero."

"We believe you." Valerie said.

"Good." Nick said feeling that he was in the clear. "Alright. I'm going now. I'll be sure to visit more often now."

"You take care, Nick." Valerie said as she waves goodbye.

Nick was then about to leave the shop. But then, Lamar had one more thing to say.

"One more thing, Nick?" Lamar said.

"Yeah?" Nick asked as he turned around.

"Not saying that you are Cloak, but if you WERE and David was still alive, he would be proud of the person that you have become." Lamar said smiling.

After hearing that, Nick knew that they knew he was Cloak. The jig was up.

"Please don't tell mom and pop." Nick pleaded not wanting his parents to know.

"What's there to tell? You're not Cloak." Lamar said before giving a wink.

Nick felt relieved and then left the store. While Lamar and Valerie figured out he was Cloak. They were willing to keep his secret. Nick was okay with them knowing. It meant he had someone to talk with.

Meanwhile, at a ballet school, Judy was doing another private lesson with her teacher, Abella Lotey. Judy was in a white unitard as she danced. Judy's ballet skills were now perfect. She didn't miss a bit or trip and fell. She finished with a twirl and plie. Abella clapped for Judy.

"Excellent! Excellent!" Abella said happily. "Judith, you have improved so much in such a short time."

"Thank you, Ms. Lotey." Judy said as she bowed.

"And that concludes all our lessons." Abella said to Judy.

"Really? That's all?" Judy asked looking surprised.

"That's all. Today was your last lesson. You don't need anymore." Abella said.

"Feels like I still have a lot to learn." Judy said feeling that she needed to do more.

"You don't. I've always said you were one of my best students and today prove no different. Judy, I have nothing else to teach you." Abella said.

Judy felt a little sad about it being her last lesson. But also felt a bit proud that she actually saw her lessons through. She was now a bold and limber bunny.

"Well, it this really is my last lesson, then I should get going." Judy said as she picks up her white duffle bag. "Thanks again, Ms. Lotey."

"You're welcome, Madam Poignard." Abella said.

"Madam Poignard? What does that mean?" Judy asked.

"It's French for... Miss Dagger." Abella said with a sly grin.

Judy's ears shot straight up and she drops her duffel bag as she hears that.

"What... what?" Judy asked looking a little stunned.

"Miss Dagger. As in the heroine, Dagger." Abella said figuring out that Judy was Dagger.

"I'm... I'm not Dagger. I mean I look like her, but I'm not her." Judy said frantically trying to lie. "She has a different fur tone and yellow eyes. As well as..."

"Before you come up with another excuse, you should know, I had the unfortunate luck of being held hostage during a bank robbery." Abella said.

Seems like Abella was there during Cloak and Dagger's debut. Judy didn't recall seeing Abella, but apparently, she was one of the hostages.

"Now, when I saw Dagger fight off those ruffians, she fought with grace and elegance. The kind of elegance that was from my teachings. You are the only bunny I taught during my years and I doubt anyone else would have those moves." Abella stated.

"I can explain." Judy said with drooping ears.

"Save it. Let me just say this." Abella said. "Anyone that uses my teachings for good... is a student that I am very proud of. So... being sure to dancing daily so you won't have to worry about being rusty again."

"Ms. Lotey..." Judy said.

"Don't worry, dear. Your secret is safe with me." Abella said smiling.

Abella was willing to keep Judy's secret about her being Dagger. Judy then smiled at her teacher.

"Judith, while your lessons are over, come visit me anytime." Abella said happily.

"I will, ma'am. Promise." Judy said before plieing one last time.

So a few people happen to know Nick and Judy's identities as Cloak and Dagger. But it still seemed that their secrets were safe. Besides, it was good for them to have some know what they do. Even with them being superheroes now, Nick and Judy still lived their normal lives.

For Nick...

It was a nice school morning and Nick was in the kitchen making breakfast. Tofu eggs, blueberry pancakes, and toast. He was in a very good mood for some reason. Walking into the kitchen was John and Frankie.

"Morning, ma. Morning, pop." Nick said in a cheery matter. "I made breakfast. Hope you're hungry."

"Nick? You're up?" John asked surprised.

"AND you made breakfast?" Frankie added.

"Yeah. Amazing what breakfast tutorials you can find on the internet." Nick said happily. "Come sit. Try my blueberry pancakes."

The two fox parents looked at each other and still were in shock with all this. Their son has never cooked before. They felt that he wanted something.

"What do you want, Nick?" John and Frankie said with straight faces.

"A fancy car, the newest game system, and dessert first for dinner." Nick said joking around. "Can't a son cook for his loving parents? Don't you trust me to do a good job?"

"We do, Nick. We do trust you." Frankie said.

"Then sit and try my food." Nick said smiling.

"It does look good." John admitted eyeballing the pancakes.

John and Frankie then sit on the table and tried some of the food Nick made. It was actually quite good.

"Mmmmmm. Son, you may have your mother beat on these blueberry pancakes." John said as he ate the pancakes.

"Hey! Don't hog all of them!" Nick said wanting to eat too.

The Wildes all sat down and enjoy their breakfast. As they chat and eat, Nick thought "I'll do whatever I can to keep your trust, mom and dad.". He would make sure to never make his parents doubt him again. As well as protect them as Cloak.

For Judy...

Judy had opened the door of her mom's trailer. She had a backpack on, rolling a wheeling suitcase, and carrying a box of her stuff. Hearing her front door open, Bonnie walked in. She was a bit surprised to see her daughter carrying all her stuff with her.

"Judy?" Bonnie said.

As Judy puts her box down to the ground, she looks at her mom.

"Mom, I'm screw-up. You're screw-up. We are BOTH screw-ups. But... together, we can work out our problems and not be so... screwed up. I'm willing to work on my problems if you are too." Judy said to her mom.

"I am, Judy. I really am." Bonnie said with a smile.

Judy moved back in with her mother. While they had many rough times, Judy decided it was best to throw all of those away and get back to being a family. A small one, but a family none the less.

Nick and Judy didn't tell their parents about them being Cloak and Dagger. They didn't even seem to know it was them. Which was good because they didn't want anyone else to know their secret identities yet. However, one other person had a good guess who they were.

At her VooDoo shop was Malaloo. She was glaring at the white and black figurines that she made of Nick and Judy on a shelf. Beside them were a bunch of dolls in pairs. Two were made of straw, two were made of wood, and two were vintage dolls. Each of these dolls was paired with one another in the same style. As Malaloo gazed at them, she started being deep in her thought.

"Nick and Judy. Two young individuals that I sensed a great power within. Cloak and Dagger. Two new superheroes that just happen to be a fox and a rabbit like them. No doubt in my mind that they are two in the same." Malaloo thought. "The Divine Pair. One day soon, the fate of the entire city will be up to you two and you two alone."

Seems that Malaloo thinks that the two have a big destiny in their future. The question is, will they be able to handle it when the time comes? Only time would tell.

As part of their new regular midday routine, Nick and Judy would patrol the city as Cloak and Dagger by jumping over rooftops. Dagger would jump with great distance thanks to her rabbit traits while Cloak figured out he can levitate. While he can't fly too high, it was helpful.

"Aaaah! Such a nice day to be on patrol." Dagger said as she overlooks a ledge.

"Nice,... but boring." Cloak said as he floats down to Dagger right side.

"Nick, there's not gonna be a crime every 20 minutes." Dagger said to her partner.

"Uh-Uh! It's Cloak. Remember, secret identity." Cloak said with a grin. Nick then looks at the distance and sees something going on around the park. "Hang on. I think I see something going on over there."

Cloak grabbed Dagger with his cloak and teleported off the roof. At the park, there was this little bunny kid, wearing a cloak similar to Cloak's, getting bullied by 3 older kids. A sheep, a black bear, and a goat. The little bunny was actually Ethan. The same boy that Nick saved before.

"Stay back! I'm warning you." Ethan said trying to look fearless.

"What? Because you think putting on a cloak like 'him' makes you brave?" The sheep asked with a devilish grin.

"How about we take it away from him and see how brave he is without it?" The black bear asked also grinning devilishly.

Before then stepped any closer to Ethan, Cloak popped up from behind. The three bullies then looked very scared now that the real Cloak was in front of them.

"S... SORRY!" The three boys went as they quickly ran away.

Ethan was a bit confused by this. But that's because he didn't notice Cloak and Dagger behind him.

"Nice work!" Cloak said with a smile.

Ethan then turned around and his face lighted up.

"Cloak!" Ethan said as he dashed to Cloak.

The little bunny then hugged Cloak. Ethan was as afraid of Cloak as he was the first time.

"I'm here too, you know." Dagger said feeling that she was a bit ignored.

Ethan then let go of Cloak.

"Ethan, right?" Cloak said remembering the boy.

"Yes." Ethan said nodding. "I never got to thank you for saving me. Thank you!"

"Don't worry about it." Cloak said.

"We're glad you are okay." Dagger said with a smile.

"So, nice cloak." Cloak said noticing Ethan wearing his cloak.

"Thanks. My mommy got it for me for being good." Ethan said happily. "Now I'm just like you."

"Looks like you have a number 1 fan, Cloak." Dagger said looking happy.

"Good to hear. You always have to be a good boy." Cloak said with a smile to Ethan. "Just be sure to try and stay out of trouble."

Cloak and Dagger were about to take their leave.

"Wait!" Ethan said halting them from leaving.

"Yeah?" Cloak asked.

"What's wrong?" Dagger asked.

"Cloak... Dagger..., you're so amazing. Will I ever be awesome as you two are?" Ethan asked.

Cloak paused for a second. He remembered himself asking that exact same thing to David. He then started to see Ethan as a young version of him. Cloak then walked up to Ethan and got on his knees. He then took off Ethan's hood and talk to him face to face.

"Ethan, the things that Dagger and I can do our special. They're powers that rarely anyone else will have. So she that you will be as awesome as us is a long shot." Cloak stated. "However, that doesn't mean you can't be awesome in your own way. Outside of the costumes, Dagger and I are just normal people. We make mistakes, but we learn from them. So, I'm not telling you to get powers in some way do what we do. Help out people in your way. Do that... and you might be even better than we are normally."

"Just remember to be a good boy, okay?" Dagger said leaning down to Ethan.

"Okay. I will." Ethan said with a smile.

"Good." Cloak said as he patted the rabbit's head. He then got up. "Alright, Dagger. Let's go."

"Right!" Dagger said nodding.

Cloak then wrapped his cloak around Dagger again.

"Take care, Mini-Cloak." Cloak said as he and Dagger waved goodbye to the bunny.

The two then disappeared leaving Ethan to be pretty happy. Cloak and Dagger then teleported back to the top of a roof. Cloak still had a pretty big smile on his face.

"Well, seems like you inspired someone today." Dagger said happy for Cloak

"It takes a little bunny like that to make a fox of darkness feel all warm and fuzzy inside." Cloak said happily. "People in this city believe in us and we are giving them hope."

"Then we have to be sure we do whatever we can for this city... together." Dagger said with a smile.

"Together." Cloak said smiling at Dagger.

As the two smiled at each other, they both hear the sounds of police sirens. They happen to see a few cars speed down the road.

"Trouble?" Dagger said.

"Let's go, partner." Cloak said.

"Let's." Dagger said ready for action. "Day and Night."

"Darkness and Light." Cloak said.

The two then followed the police cars. Hopping and levitating off the Rooftops.

The two of them never planned to be superheroes. But both of them were willing to be heroes not only for their personal needs, but to help others in need. It was a hard job, but somebody had to do it. And Nick and Judy were ready for it. For they were Darkness and Light bond together by fate. They were... Cloak and Dagger.

End

Cloak and Dagger WILL return. That's right. The story's not over yet. Coming soon, Darkness and Light: Bringing Order.
