Disclaimer: HA HA! You don't own the characters or the rights—wait. Neither do I. Darn.

Extra special thanks to LavenderJade for letting me set this in her "Phoenix" universe. It would've made the plot a lot better. Thanks again, LavenderJade! :)

Jack, Ed (who came over) and Lennie were watching a scary movie on TV.

"Ed, get us something to eat," said Lennie.

"Why do I have to do it?" Ed asked. "You're closer to the kitchen."

Meanwhile, Jack was watching the movie, biting his nails precariously as he was discreetly moaning in fear—the next victim was soon to be a lawyer. He couldn't bear to watch another second...

"I'LL DO IT!" Jack screamed, taking off for the kitchen. Lennie and Ed were staring quite blankly at each other, wondering what that was about. Jack was in the kitchen, looking for food in the refrigerator when he came across some pizza. He took it out of the fridge and was about to enjoy a slice—until he opened the box.

Out of the box came a blast of green fog and—for some random reason—calypso music began to play around him. The pizza began to drift before him.

"Feed me," it said.

"Oooooooohhhhhh-kay," said Jack, slowly moving away. "It seems to have finally happened. I've gone insane."

Ed walked in on the scene and decided to make his way to the exit upon seeing what was going on. Meanwhile, Jack was closing the pizza box.

"I'll get nightmares if I eat this ancient pizza before bed," Jack said to himself. Lennie walked in.

"Lennie, could you take care of this?" Jack asked.

"Sure," Lennie replied.

20 minutes later (Yep, Lennie ate it!)

Lennie was asleep in front of the TV. A dream began to form in his mind. At first, he was waking up in a flowerbed; surrounded by furry woodland creatures, candy trees, and a nearly impossible bright sun, with a smile made up of what seemed to be a colon and parenthesis (an emoticon sun :) )

The next thing he knew, he was falling from outer space towards Earth. As soon as the parachute (that magically appeared on his back) opened, he quickly began to float down. A rabbit below was scared of him landing on him, so out of nowhere, it took out a gun and began shooting at Lennie's parachute. The rabbit hit the parachute very well. It watched as Lennie began coming down faster. The rabbit ran away as it saw that the shooting didn't help. Lennie fell down the rabbit hole and found himself in front of three different eggs. They each cracked open, revealing before him three baby rabbits. Two of them turned into evil monster rabbits. Lennie grabbed the third rabbit and backed away from the monster rabbits, but then the third also turned into an evil monster rabbit. Just as they were coming towards him was the part where he woke up next to Jack.

"BUNNIES!!!" Lennie screamed.

Jack: [sweatdrop] Lennie, you okay?

"B-BUNNIES!!!" was all Lennie could say before lapsing into sleep on Jack's shoulder.

"No more pizza for you before bed," said Jack, gently patting Lennie's shoulder. I do believe we're both insane now, he thought.

Meanwhile, outside, three evil monster bunnies were looking at Jack and Lennie from the outside, snickering at the fear of bunnies now inflicted into Lennie Briscoe's cynical mind.

The End
