Leoriphobia

The day was normal as any day could be. It's sunny and hot you would swear you could see steam rolling off the water. Under a tree somewhere a small, relaxed creature was laying down sleeping peacefully. This creature no matter how nice he seemed, he was just plain out odd. This creature had no arms and no legs, let alone a neck. knowing that, it seemed strange and miraculous how he survive all this time. This creature's name was Rayman. He was wearing his only clothes, a purple shirt that had a red hoodie and on the shirt was a white 0. On his feet were orange shoes with a white tips and red spirals on the sides. His head sported two long strips of hair that were orange with red tips that acted almost like ears. His face sprouted a large nose that seemed like a pale muzzle. Rayman's eyes were slightly morphed together so that he seemed extremely cartoonish. Despite Rayman lack of limbs; he seemed to never have any trouble controlling them. Most of the time.

Rayman's head was laying on something. That something was Globox, A rather large frog-like creature who was not that intelligent, Let alone brave. Globox's stomach, that was round and plump was spotted with white. The glutes white hands scratched the side of his gut, shaking the head of the limbless thingamajig. Resulting in the big nosed teen to slowly crack open his eyes.

"Mmm?" Rayman asked slightly confused on what awoke him from his dream-filled slumber.

Rayman sat up his head and looked around before resting it back on his best friends soft stomach. But then something zipped by that Rayman caught in the corner of his eye. Knowing this could be his greatest foe or just a harmless lum; Rayman quickly stood up and awoke Globox with a strong shove that rolled the frog on his stomach. Globox Sat up and looked around.

"What is going on buddy?" Asked Globox, still on his stomach.

"I dunno but I know I saw something out of corner of my eye." Rayman replyed in a tense fighting stance. Globox then gulped as if many memorys like this were flashing before the frightened frogs tiny eyes.

"Do you think it is the robo-pirates again?" Globox fearfully started biting his fingers.

"No they are definitely never coming back to the glade of dreams" Rayman smirked, remembering the big can of whooping he gave the hunks of tin.

"Andy?" Globox strangely smiled at the name.

"No." Rayman blankly replyed. "I will go check it out, you go warn Ly. I don't know what these things are." Obeying orders; Globox Sprinted away, leaving only his friend and footprints.

"Whoever you are. Come out and face me like a man!" Rayman demanded while puffing out his chest.

Nothing responded.

"I know your there!" Rayman attempted to find the intruder. Suddenly a low hum started behind Rayman, causing him to spin around startled by the sudden noise.

Rayman relaxed when only a white fluffy bunny standing on its hind legs was there. Rayman smiled and sighed greatfully and mumbled a thank pokous to the sky.

"Now what is a cute little thing like yourself doing out here?" Asked Rayman quietly while looking around. But to Rayman's surprise When he looked back there was not one, but 2 Rabbits. Confused by the sudden appearance Rayman tilted his head slightly to the side. "What? I thought there was only one of you guys?" Something then moved behind him.

Rayman twisted to see three more bunnies. Rayman scrunched his brow and turned to see thirty rabbits of different shades of brown, black, and white. Rayman jumped at the jumble of animals when they suddenly all stepped closer to him. Then he was surrounded by the furry creatures. Everywhere Rayman looked, more and more bunnies were popping up. Soon they were all forming a dome around him, the mass of rabbits were stepping closer, each with there own menacing grin spreading across each of their faces.

Then there eyes were turning blood red and there large grins were twitching. Rayman felt his heart beat quicken and on instinct he started charging his punch. Their eyes were looking at odd angles and somehow their each of the horrible grins got wider.

Then the screaming started.

The noise started low, but the dome the bunnies created with there bodies amplified the low sound ten fold. The noise throbbed in Rayman's frame, making Rayman fall over. Rayman attempted to stand back up; but only fell back on to his stomach. After that the pitch raised in protest, the squeal burned into Rayman's delicate wears until they almost bled. The pain, wracked through the entire frame of the poor thingamajig down to his core. Rayman covered his pounding ears with his hands and curled into a shuttering ball in a attempt to dampen the glass shattering sound. But the sound gave no leeway. Rayman had terrible ideas flashing before his eyes, Rayman's friends all being slowly tortured to death while there once proud hero is in the forest, a rotting corpse. Rayman's heart pounded harder as images the decaying clothes and rotting flesh laying still curled in a pitiful ball. Rayman was breathing hard as he thought of death overtaking him and leaving defenseless souls to suffhis for his failure. The last picture the crumpled figure saw was a single close up picture of a deranged rabbit. It's red eyes staring down at him while a terrifyingly, evil grin slowly starts spreading across the once-innocent face.

Rayman screamed.
