Hello there readers! I am so excited to bring to you the next chapter of Judy's Little Vacation!
Judy yawned and stretched as she started to wake up. She cuddled her fox plush and giggled behind her favorite pacifier. Then she opened her eyes and looked around, and was shocked to find that she was laying in what she at first thought was a crib. Calming down a little, she saw that the bars were much shorter that the ones for a crib. It instead resembled the railing that some parents attached to the sides of their toddler's beds to keep them from falling out.
Judy sat up, blushing slightly at the squish coming from under the carrot-themed blanket that she was partially cocooned in. She was still in the lavender T-shirt and the bright pink paw-up, which was soaked. She was about to climb over the railing when a familiar kangaroo entered.
"There she is! Did you enjoy your nap sweetie?" Lucy asked as she walked up and pulled Judy into her arms. She hummed to herself as she carried the rabbit over to a nearby changing table and got to work cleaning her up. Judy looked around the room confused, feeling like she had seen it somewhere. It was only after she was powdered and placed into another paw-up and carried out of the room that she put the pieces together. They were in her apartment, and they had just exited the guest bedroom.
She turned it into a nursery? Well...I can take care of that later. At least I'm home and can fix this mess. Judy thought, pulling out her paci as she was set down on a high chair in her kitchen.
"Uh, okay, you can go now." Judy said. Lucy looked confused.
"What do you mean sweetie?"
"I mean that I'm home now, so you can go."
"Go where?"
"Back to that nursery, or wherever." Judy said, starting to feel frustrated that this nightmare has yet to end.
"Oh, sweetie," Lucy said with that warm maternal smile, "I have to stay here until your mommy or daddy tell me that my services are no longer required." Lucy gave Judy a gentle head pat and tied a green bib around her neck.
"Look...uh...Lucy, I'm not actually a baby, I'm all grown up. So your services are no longer required."
Lucy giggled as she set a bowl of baby carrots and a sippi cup of grape juice on the tray in front of the padded rabbit.
"You are such a big girl, aren't you? But rules are rules sweetie. I'm here to take care of you until a grown-up tells me otherwise." Lucy said, reaching down to gently nuzzle the top of Judy's head. Judy sat there and started to absentmindedly munch on her carrots, trying to think of a way around this new obstacle.
Okay, thought Judy, so she sees me as a little kit. Maybe if I dressed more maturely and acted differently, I could convince her that my "mommy" was home... Judy smiled as she devised her plan, only now realizing that she had stopped eating and was staring at the sippi-cup anxiously, sucking her thumb.
"Oh, is something the matter sweetie?" Lucy said while looking over from where she was washing some dishes. She dried her paws and walked over to the nervous-looking bunny. She had noticed how Judy was looking at the cup, and her programming came to a conclusion. "OH! Are you not yet weaned off of your babas?" Lucy asked with a smile, taking the sippi-cup and heading over to a cabinet.
"What?!" Judy asked, suddenly realizing that the fact that it had not been a bottle had ben exactly the problem. What'd that lamb do to me?! She wondered before the grape juice, now in a baby bottle, was set down in front of her.
"Nanny Lucy now knows that you still want babas sweetie, I promise that I won't be making that mistake again." Lucy said before heading back to take care of the rest of the dishes. Judy stuck her tongue out at Lucy's back, before she instinctively grabbed the bottle and began to suckle. Part of her was actively trying to resist, but Bellwether's influence proved to be too great. Soon enough, Judy was setting the empty bottle down on the tray in front of her, and resumed finishing her carrots.
"Alright, playtime for you little one!" Lucy said as she watched Judy finish her last carrot. Judy was led by the paw over to a playpen set up in the center of her living room. After she was set down inside of it, Lucy pulled the television remote from her pouch and turned the TV on to a cartoon show.
"Now you be good while Nanny finishes up setting up your proper nursery sweetie." Lucy said before happily bounding away. No sooner was she out of sight than Judy was scaling the playpen walls. She quickly scrambled over the mesh sides and bolted to her bedroom. She could hear the robotic kangaroo humming to herself, so Judy rapidly stripped off her shirt and started to grab something that would help her appear older to the robotic nanny. She pulled a dress-suit from the back in her closet. The Navy blue skirt covered her paw-ups perfectly, while the conservative top definitely made her look a little older, she based on her reflection in the nearby mirror.
Okay, I hope that this works. She thought as she took a moment to steel herself, before making her way out of the bedroom and into the nursery.
"Ahem. Excuse me." She said, trying to sound authoritative. Lucy turned to look at her, suddenly a confused look on her face.
"Yes?"
"I'm Judy Hopps, mother of the little kit you brought back from the daycare."
"Oh? It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Hopps!" Lucy said excitedly. "Your little one is just an absolute joy to take care of. Now that you are here, would you like to continue renting me as your child's nanny? Or are my services no longer required?"
Judy started to feel a pressure in her lower abdomen and frowned, knowing what that meant.
"Uhm, y-your services are no longer required."
"Ah, I see. It was truly a pleasure watching over your little one. I shall return to the daycare, once the bill has been all settled up first of course."
"The bill?" Judy started to feel even more pressure, signaling that she was running out of time to make it to a toilet.
"Yep! Here's what you currently owe!" Lucy's eyes flashed green, and a 3D holographic image of the amount she was claiming that Judy now owed was shown to her. Judy gulped.
That's at least three month's salary! Judy thought. If she thinks I'm going to be paid for being kitnapped, she's got another thing coming!
"Uh, is a payment plan an option?"
"Of course! I have already written down the billing address. If you want, we can send you the bills in the mail."
"Works just fine for me." Judy forced out as suddenly, she felt herself filling up the back of the paw-up. She quickly swiped at some tears as she started to herd Lucy towards the door. Lucy stopped, her nostrils flaring. She narrowed her eyes down at the rabbit.
"Error." She said under her breath. Before Judy could stop her, she was spun around and the back of her skirt lifted up, showing her messy paw-ups.
"Error, error, error..." Lucy kept repeating as her servos began to overload from working overtime attempting to make sense of what she had just seen. Suddenly, Lucy shut down, her eyes going dark, as she slumped over while still standing up. A panel on the small of her back opened, showing a small computer screen and miniature keyboard. Judy looked up at it curiously.
Manual Setup or Automatic Reboot? Flashed on the screen, with a countdown clock until the automatic reboot. Not sure what else to do, Judy quickly selected Manual setup. The clock stopped as she was suddenly reading all kinds of different programs and commands.
"This is oddly user-friendly." Judy mumbled to herself as she searched through the different options. None of the ones available appeared to guarantee that she could make the robot leave. However, as she was reading, a thought occurred to her. She looked down at her now disheveled skirt, which was showing some of her used paw-up.
"Okay...maybe...maybe I can get this thing to help me get my potty training back." Judy thought out loud. She found the picture of herself with her messy paw-up revealed and found a few helpful options.
"Of course, I gotta have the ability to go to work." She mumbled as she found just the options she was looking for, reading their descriptions carefully before choosing them. Hoping that she hadn't just made a huge mistake, Judy hit ENTER and then CONFIRM. The panel slid closed, and Lucy instantly sprang to "life".
"Oh my goodness, I smell something icky!" She teased as she picked Judy up and carried her back into the nursery.
"Uhm, L-Lucy?" Judy asked a little nervously as he skirt was removed while being laid down on the changing table.
"Yes sweetie?"
"Do you know who I am?"
"I sure do! You're my assigned assisted care client!" Lucy said as she tore the optional velcro tapes of the paw-up and set to work cleaning Judy with baby wipes.
"Correct." Judy said, starting to feel a little more confident. "And, uh, do you know what age group I'm in?"
"You are an adult." Lucy said. Judy smiled at that, until she saw the thick diaper being pulled out from under the table.
"What's with the diaper?"
"Your accident was almost too much for the paw-up, so I am putting a diaper onto you sweetie!"
"But, I'm in the adult age group!"
"Hmm...that's a slight error. It would seem that to my programing, you are currently registered as being in the toddler age group as well as the adult age group." Lucy said simply as she began to dust Judy's diaper area with powder.
"But I'm an adult rabbit!" Judy protested, before finding herself sucking on a binky.
"According to my programming, you are an adult and a toddler. So we'll just have to wing it." Lucy said, bopping Judy's pink nose, before taping up the front of the diaper. Lucy the set Judy down off the changing table onto the carpeted floor, ruffling her headfur.
"Okay, is there any way to unregister me as a toddler?"
"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that I cannot do that Judy."
"...So...who's in charge here then? Me or you?"
"Well...it depends." Lucy said cryptically, exiting the room and humming to herself. Judy waddled after her.
"Depends on what?"
"On your behavior and your needs. If you exhibit any signs or characteristics of acting in any way like a toddler or infant, then I will be required to address those accordingly. As you would if you were to show signs of maturity."
"What?"
"Would you like an example?" Lucy asked as she switched the TV channels to the news.
"Uhm...yes?"
"Okay, well, for one, that diaper you're now wearing. You obviously are in need of it, as well as my help with it."
"Uhm...okaaaaaay..."
"But a better example would be, if I were to observe you absentmindedly sucking your thumb. You would be given a pacifier, or maybe a baba. If you were to ask me politely to allow you to make your own meal, then I would allow it."
"Uh...okay...I think I understand." Judy said. "So what happens now?"
"Well, there is still some time before dinnertime and bedtime, what would you like to do?"
"Wait, why do I have a bedtime?"
"Because all toddlers need a proper bedtime."
"But...oh! May I please be allowed to go to bed when I choose to?"
"I'm afraid that I cannot do that sweetie." Lucy said, picking Judy up and cradling her in her arms.
"Why not?"
"From all that I have observed of you today, you have a tendency to act more like a toddler than you do an adult. Therefore, certain rules and restrictions are currently in effect. This will change each day, all depending on what I am able to observe."
"So...the more I act like a little kit, the more I'll be treated as one?"
"Correct! Who's a clever girl? You are!" Lucy cooed to Judy. The rabbit was clearly thinking things over as she laid there.
"I guess that this is the best that I'm going to be able to do...so far..." Judy sighed, before finding her binky placed back between her lips. She sucked on it and pouted.
The next day...
"Such a heavy wetter! Good thing I'm keeping you in your night time diapers for bedtime." Lucy said as she finished cleaning the sleepy rabbit and helping her into a pair of paw-ups.
"Okay, just so I have this all straight, the more mature I act throughout the day, the better my chances I'll have of getting to sleep in my bedroom instead of this nursery?"
"Correct sweetie!" Answered Lucy as she started to pack a diaper bag. She filled it with several spare diapers and paw-ups, along with some other supplies. Judy had been surprised yesterday to find that she could schedule an appointment with her doctor the very next day. Lucy had made it perfectly clear that she would be coming along with Judy today, since she had informed the kangaroo on her "kit" day yesterday.
Judy was allowed to dress herself, which she did, thankful that the paw-ups were easily concealed by her jeans with barely any bulge detectable. She then threw on a bright yellow tank top and was soon walking alongside Lucy down the hall towards the elevator.
I guess if I act mature often enough for her, she just becomes more of a servant really. Judy thought as Lucy opened her truck door for her.
A short time later...
Judy was currently lying down on the crinkly paper of the examination table. Her tank top was pushed up a little and her jeans were pushed down, revealing her paw-up. She blushed up at the seasoned tiger who was performing the ultrasound to examine her bladder. Dr. Mason Smiled reassuringly after he finished and pulled the equipment to the side. He handed her a couple of moist towlettes to wipe the clear gel that had been spread over the area he was examining.
"Well, the good news is that based on all of your other tests so far, you appear to be a healthy adult rabbit Judy. The bad news, however, is that from what I observed of your bladder muscles, is that you truly have no way to control your...ah...wetting situation."
Judy sighed as she was about to pull her pants back up, but stopped when she saw the paw prints on the front of the training pants start to disappear, indicating that she was wetting.
"Case in point Judy."
"Is there anything to be done?" She asked as she kicked her jeans the rest of the way off, blushing at the slight squishing sound she was making.
"Well, before I try anything, I'm going to be running some tests on that blood and urine sample that you were able to provide, to maybe find out just what kind of chemical we're dealing with here." He replied, briefly considering asking her about how exactly she had been exposed to whatever chemical that had rendered her completely urinary incontinent and almost unable to control her bowels again, only to remember her telling him that she was unable to tell him because it was part of an ongoing investigation. He had noticed her eyes darting back and forth as well as her blush as she said that.
"I'm afraid to prescribe you anything because until I know what it is exactly, I have no idea how your body will react to anything I might give you. Unfortunately...I'm afraid that your bladder muscles may be permanently damaged. At least from what I was able to observe. I would like to schedule you for some more tests to run on you. But aside from that, at this point, I'm afraid that incontinence products are a must." He said. "I'm sorry Judy."
"...Thank you doctor..." Judy said, crestfallen. Doctor Mason gave her and her curious kangaroo companion some privacy, so as to deal with the wet undergarment. Lucy used the examination table as a de facto changing table, to rip open the paw-up and clean the forlorn bunny.
"I'm so sorry Judy." Lucy said as she slipped a fresh paw-up up her legs, before slipping her jeans over them.
"Well, there's still a chance that the future tests will be able to help find a solution." Judy said, perking up and hopping off the table. "I'm confident that this whole thing will be gone before I have to go back to work!"
