Bunnie groaned as she began to awaken.

as she opened her eyes..she was momentarily blinded by a bright light shining on her.
she tried to cover her eyes..but, found both her arms and legs shackled.

she quickly began to panic upon realizing that she was bound to a metal slab of some kind.
and, despite her best attempts, she couldn't get free.

"grr..nnngh..GRAARGH!"

"struggle all you want." began a voice. "those bonds are solid Impervium. It will take alot more than what you have to break them."

the lights dimmed, and Bunnie found she was surrounded by an assortment of Overlanders of varied races.

one human approached her (no doubt the leader.)

"w-who are you?! WHERE AM AH-AAAAAAARGH!" screamed Bunnie, as an electrical current shot through her body.

"Silence, vermin." said the man. "You will SPEAK when SPOKEN TO."

Bunnie breathed heavily as the searing pain began to fade.

"As for your broader question: I am Leonard Shaw. and, WE..We are the Earth Masters."

"e-earth mast-" Bunnie widened her eyes in horror. "or, walkers. Y-Ya'll are like those Mobians Forevuh Terrorists!"

Shaw gave a signal..prompting Bunnie to get shocked again.

"We are NOT terrorists, we are Liberators." began Shaw. "tens to thousand years ago, THIS planet belonged to us Humans. but, then the aliens came..and, changed everything."

"th..th' Xorda." spoke Bunnie, weakly. "th-they tried ta' kill..everythang, w-with their g-gene bombs."

"Instead, they engendered aberrations of nature. You ANTHROPOIDS, who think you rule this planet."

Bunnie groaned painfully as she looked up at her captor. "This was OUR planet, once..and, It will be so AGAIN."

"wa..what are you..g-gonna do to me?"

Shaw smirked as he gripped Bunnie's furry muzzle tightly. "Why..the only thing Rabbits like you ARE good for."

Bunnie widened her eyes at this. "no.."

"before the sun rises tonight, you will be executed on live television for ALL to see." said Shaw. "The world shall see our strength with the death of Queen Sally's first lieutenant at our hand.

and, in time..MORE shall join our cause, and restore Earth to it's former, natural state."

tears flowed down Bunnie's cheek. "p-please..don't do this. Ah'm not your enemy."

Shaw slapped Bunnie's cheek hard. "yes you are. you ALL are our enemies. And, we won't stop until you are all DEAD."

Shaw then looked to one of his men. "Have you hijacked the global airwaves, yet?"

"No, sir. not yet. But, we should bypass the firewalls in the next five hours."

Shaw growled. "Try to speed things up, won't you?!"

"We will TRY, sir."

once the man left, Shaw returned his attention to Bunnie.

"Since we have some time to KILL. Let's soften the vermin up a bit"

Bunnie watched in horror as the other humans drew out an assortment of tools meant to inflict great paint upon her.

"Remember..make her Bleed, but DON'T kill her. They'll be plenty of time for that LATER."

as the various overlanders all chuckled and snickered with malice, Bunnie began to shiver with fright.
as one human shocked her with an electro-prod..the room filled with her ear-piercing screams.

[Meanwhile, Back at the D'Coolette Household]

Peter trembled in a couch as Sally and Rotor spoke with Antoine about the present situation.

Belle was sitting in Peter's lap, equally scared.
while Cream held Peter's hand, trying her best to calm him down.

"zo..you don' have ANY clue on where Bunnie haz been taken?" inquired Antoine.

"Footage from the Mobi-Mart security cameras confirms that Bunnie was abducted by masked men dressed in black." explained Rotor. "what we know for sure is that they are Overlanders..and, no doubt chose Bunnie specifically."

Sally breathed out sharply. "It has to be the Earth Masters. the Overlander Counterparts to the Mobians Forever terrorist organization."

"but..we've dealt with de' Mobians Forvair many times before!"

"the Earth Masters are DIFFERENT, Antioine." said Sally. "They are more organized than their mobian counterparts. AND, more ruthless."

Peter began to tear up at this. "it's my fault..It's all my fault."

"No, Peter. NO." said Cream. "It's WASN'T your fault."

"YEAH, Big Brother! It was those "Bad Men!" added Belle, trying to be supportive.

"Yes, Peter. Listen to them." began Sally. "You wasn't even THERE."

"Well, Ah' SHOULD have!" snapped Peter suddenly, tears in his eyes. "Ah' SHOULD have been there!..but, Ah' WASN't!, an' now mah' mom is in th' hands of those Racist Extremists!"

"PETER!" exclaimed Cream, clutching his hand. "Please, baby..Calm down."

"Yez, Petair. Please be calming down." began Antoine. "Dere wazn't anyzing you could have done, anywayz."

Peter eyed Antoine. "What!? a-are you sayin' Ah' wouldn't have been able ta' protect her!?"

"Vell, you aren't a brave zoldier like myzelf." said Antoine, proudly.

Sally slapped her face in aggravation.

"a "BRAVE SOLDIER!?", like YOU!?" said Peter angrily as he put Belle down, and marched over to Antoine. "you are an ARROGANT COWARD, "DAD" You are NOTHIN' like Grandpa Armand was!"

"Peter!" exclaimed Cream, shocked at her secret boyfriend's outburst.

"h-how DARE you talk zhat way to me!" snapped Antoine, flabbergasted. "Have you no rezpects for your fathair!?"

"YER' NOT MAH' FATHER!" shouted Peter, tears in his eyes.

the whole room fell silent as Peter breathed heavily, fighting his tears. "yer' NOT..mah' father. you nevuh WAS."

Peter then turned away as tears fell down his cheek. "but, "Bunnie" IS mah' mother..and, Ah' don't know how, but Ah' WILL get her back!"

Before anyone could say anything else, Peter suddenly ran out of the room.

"PETER!" called Cream

as the door slammed, Cream looked to Sally. "go. If anyone can talk some sense into him It's you."

Cream nodded, then ran out the room.
Sally then breathed out, rubbing her temples stressfully.

"Rotor, we have GOT to narrow down where Bunnie's been taken."

"Right. I'll return to my lab, and try and identify possible E.M. locations."

As Rotor walked away, Antoine exhaled sharply. still shaken at Peter's outburst.

"I cannot BELIEVE that boy! Why would he zay zuch things!?" said Antoine.

Jacques then walked up, and hugged Antione's pants leg. "I don't thinkz you are a cowardz, Papa."

Antoine bent down, and hugged his son. "thank you, zon. I appreziatez dat."

Sally sighed sharply at this. "The answer to your question, Antoine..is right in front of you."

Antoine looked at Sally. "Pardone?"

"When was the last time you showed Peter the same affection and pride that you do with Jacques?" began Sally. "your favortism over your BIOLOGICAL son has driven a wedge between you and Peter."

Antoine paused as he pondered this.

"I am sorry, Antoine. but as rude as Peter was just now..he wasn't wrong to feel the way he does." with that, Sally turned and walked away.

Belle then gave her father a look, before following Sally close behind.

[Elsewhere]

Cream down the street as fast as she could, her eyes darting around for any sign of Peter.

"PETER!..PETER!?" called Cream, frantically

Cream finally came to tree on a hill overlooking the main city.
she looked, and saw a hunkered down human sitting underneath the tree.

"Peter!" Cream ran up to the tree..and, found Peter. silently crying as he stared out at Crystal City.

"peter." Cream walked up, and knelt down to Peter. she then embraced him, stroking his hair as he continued to cry softly.

"peter..It's okay."

"okay?" began Peter between sobs. "mah' mother is gone!, maybe even dead..an' there's nothin' ah' can do about It!"

"don't talk that way, Peter. She's still alive..she HAS to be."

Peter shed more tears. "ah..ah' owe her..SO MUCH. all mah' life she's loved me, protected me...an' she didn't even HAFTA! but..she did."

Peter cried some more..which made Cream more upset. "oh, Peter..I wish you wouldn't cry. you're..you're gonna make ME cry."

"Ah' just wish Ah' knew how to find her." muttered Peter, sinking further into despair.

"So do I." said Cream. "If only we could track her like she does with you."

It was at that moment Peter stopped crying..and, bore a stunned look on his face. "t-track her?"

Peter suddenly jumped (startling Cream) "YES!, THAT'S IT!" Peter then kissed Cream deeply on her lips. "Cream, Yer' a genius!"

"wa-what?! WHAT'D I SAY!?" exclaimed Cream, dumbfounded

"No time!, Ah' need to git to Rotor's lab!" said Peter, and he stood up and ran off.

"PETER!..WAIT!" called Cream, as she chased after him.

[Rotor's Laboratory]

Rotor was working frantically at his computer, trying to identify possible Earth Masters bases near Emerald Town.

he was so caught up in his work, that he was started when the door to his lab suddenly swung open.

"ROTOR!"

"GAAH!"

Rotor looked, and Saw Peter (with an out-of-breath Cream right beside him.)

"Peter!, oh, thank goodness. I was worried about you."

"Nevermind that now, Look. Ah' think Ah've figured out a fast way ta find mah' mom!"

the walrus looked at Peter. "y-you..have?"

"th' Microchip that Mom had you implant inta' me ten years ago..Does It still work?"

Rotor looked mildly uncomfortable at the mention of said microchip.

"um..yeah, why?"

Peter approached Rotor. "Because if Mom can use her bionics to track me with It..Can't you use the chip's synced transmitter to track my mom?!"

a stunned expression formed on Rotor's face..followed by a slap in his own face.

"Great Walkers, WHY didn't I think to do that!? (mutters) stupid rotor, Stupid, STUPID ROTOR!"

"You really shouldn't call yourself bad names." said Cream, polite as always.

Rotor exhaled, then looked to Peter. "Alright..come here, Peter. Lemme have a quick scan of your chip."

Peter walked with Rotor to another part of the Lab.
sitting on a seat, Rotor took a gun-like device, and shot a beam of light near the back of Peter's neck.

BEEP!-BLOOP!-BEEP!

"Got It." said Rotor, as he returned to his computer.

both Peter and Cream walked over, and stood near Rotor and he typed in some coding.

"Well?"

"My systems are indeed detecting the unique bio-electrical energy signature of Bunnie's cybernetics..but, I can't pinpoint an exact location!"

Rotor turned his chair around, and faced the two teenagers. "I need more power to boost my scanners. Peter, go fetch me some spare power rings, and install them into my main power generator."

"Okay!" said Peter, and he ran over to a steel crate marked "Power Rings"

opening the crate, he took a few of the glowing gold rings,
Cream also took some rings, and ran with Peter to Rotor's generator, and installed the rings into It.

"GOOD!, It's working." said Rotor, and he resumed tapping code into his computer.

as Peter and Cream returned to Rotor, his computer bleeped.

"Got It!"

"You found mom!?" exclaimed Peter, hopeful.

"I think so." said Rotor. "according to this, Bunnie's cybernetics aaaare...THERE!"

Peter looked at the screen. three grouped lights were blinking on what appeared to be in the ocean near the Metal Harbor.

"Mom's..Underwater!?" said Peter, puzzled.

"Doubtful..Lemme check." Rotor typed in some more code.

"Ah-ha!, there we go. Hmmm..It appears Bunnie's being held on some old ship near the docks."

"No wonder nobody can find these guys, Their not even IN th' city anymore!" said Peter, astonished.

"Right." began Rotor, as he got up from his chair. "I'll go call Sally, and let her know where to-"

"No!" said Peter, suddenly.

Rotor looked at Peter. "what?!"

"Ah' may not know much of these "Earth Masters"..but, this much Ah' DO know: they HATE Anthropids. Mobians."

"Yes, they do. But, what do you-"

"Their hiding out on an old ship because they DON'T want to be found..Especially by Mobians." continued Peter. "Ah' bet they have some..'special scanners' that are designed to detect anything that isn't human like them, right?"

Rotor ponded this. "hmm..I suppose so."

"Well, if th' E.M. DO possess such'a technology, then they'll detect even Mobilanders LONG before they even get close."

Rotor looked at Peter. "Are you saying what I think you are saying?"

Peter nodded. "Yes. Ah' have to go to that ship. as a full human, Ah' should be able to get close enough ta' have a chance at savin' mom."

"But, you CAN'T go there ALONE!" exclaimed Cream, concerned.

Peter looked at Cream. "Ah' have no choice, Cream. Ah'm the only one who CAN do this."

"but..but, if they catch you..you could be-" Cream began to hyperventilate. she then turned, and ran off as tears threatened to break.

"CREAM, WAIT!" called Peter.

SLAM!

Peter sighed sharply. he then looked at Rotor. "Rotor..git some gear ready fer' me."

"uhh..y-yeah, sure, Peter."

Peter breathed out again..them, turned and walk in the direction Cream went.
as he made his way out of the lab..and, heard the sound of distant crying.

following the noise, he found it coming from one of the staterooms of Freedom HQ.
creaking the door open..he found Cream laying on a bed, crying her eyes out.

"Cream?"

"y-you can't go.." muttered Cream. "you'll die."

"Cream, Ah'v trained fer' this kinda thing."

"with a TEAM!" snapped Cream. "but, NOT alone!, you'll be going against HUNDREDS of dangerous terrorists ALONE!"

Peter flinched at Cream's sudden anger. finally, he shut the door behind him,
walked over, and sat on the bed beside Cream (who also sat up beside him.)

"I don't want you to die..I love you!"

Peter looked down, sadly. "Ah' shouldn't even BE alive, Cream."

Cream looked at Peter. "what?!"

"my mother..my REAL mother, Died..w-while she was pregnant with me during the first Robotnik War." began Peter. "the only reason Ah' didn't die with her is because mah' father had me removed from her body, and placed in an artificial womb."

Peter sighed stressfully. "but, then he died..an' Ah' was left all alone. an' Ah' would have been alone..If not fer' mom."

Cream looked at Peter with glossy eyes.

"Like ah' said before: "Ah' owe her so much. she saved me..an, all ah' want is to pay back her kindness."

"Peter..I don't want to lose you like I lost Cheese." said Cream, tears streaming down her furry cheeks.

Peter looked at Cream. he caressed her cheek..then, gently wiped the tears from her eyes. "believe me, cream. Ah' don't want to die, either. But, Ah' could nevuh live with mah'self if Ah' let mah' mother die, and didn't at least TRY ta' save her."

Cream looked away, her eyes shut tight as tears escaped them. Peter then brought her face to his.

"Cream. Ah' can't promise Ah'll come back alive..but, no matter what happens, Ah' just want you ta' know this: Ah' love you, Cream Rabbit..and, Ah' always will."

Cream teared up as she stared into Peter's eyes. "and..I will always love you, Peter Rabboh. You..and, no one else."

Peter and Cream slowly edged their faces closer..then, kissed deeply.
their kiss soon deepened, becoming more passionate.

Peter then widened his eyes as Cream slipped her tongue into his mouth.

"c-Cream?!"

"I may never see you again." began Cream, still holding Peter's face. "If this is really the last time we will be together..then, I am ready."

Peter blushed bright red. "a-are you..sure? a-ah' mean, ah' don't want you to feel like you hav-"

"Shhh.." shushed Cream, placing her fingers on Peter's lips. "It's okay. I want this..I'm ready."

Peter paused as he pondered on this.
after a moment of hesitation, he finally kissed Cream passionately again.

as the two lovers held their kiss, they both began to undress one another.
they eventually had to break their kiss for a moment to fully disrobe.

once they were both in their "birthday suits", they took a moment to admire one another.

"you..you're so beautiful." said Peter, in awe at Cream's nude body.

Cream touched Peter's bare chest, running her furry palms down his fleshy skin. "and, you..you are perfect."

as Peter leaned down to kiss Cream again, the rabbit girl laid down on her back.
after kissing for awhile, Peter then positioned himself at Cream's womanhood.

"you ready?"

Cream nodded. "yes. do it..make love to me."

Peter breathed out sharply as he slowly entered his manhood into Cream.
Cream bit her lip..them cried out as Peter took her virginity in one strong thrust.

"Gah!"

"s-sorry, Sorry! Ah' didn't mean-"

"it's..It's okay, Peter. it's okay." Cream swallowed hard. "c-continue."

Peter gently began to thrust himself into Cream.
in no time at all, waves of pleasure swept over both of them.

Cream gripped the bed as Peter held her hips, and lifted her abdomen up a bit.

"(huff, pant, huff) cream..oh, Oh, Cream.."

"(gasp, pant, huff) hmm..oh, oh, peter..oh..OH!"

Cream finally grabbed Peter's shoulders, and pulled herself up.
facing her lover, she began to kiss Peter deeply as he continued his rhythmic thrusting.

both their minds began to wander to their childhoods.
from the day they both first met, to when their friendship first transitioned into romance.

Cream broke her kiss, and locked her gaze with Peter.

"oh, peter..i..(huff, pant) I love you (gasp, groan) so much!"

"and..(pant, huff) I love (groan, huff) you..TOO."

Peter began to increase speed as he felt himself reach his end.

"oh, cream..i..I-"

Cream tightened her hold on Peter. "do it, peter."

"oh..OH..OH, CREEEEEAM!"

"oh..OH, PETEEEER!"

time seemed to stop for both of them as Peter's seeds finally entered Cream's body.
they froze in place for a bit. then..Peter finally collapsed ontop of Cream.

both sweaty, and out-of-breath. Cream cupped Peter's face, and kissed him again.

"thank you, peter. that was..that was wonderful."

Peter smiled as he kissed Cream back. "anythang fer' you, mah' love."

after laying with his love for a few minutes, Peter finally rose up, and began to put his clothes back on. Cream sat up, and looked at him with saddened eyes. "peter."

Peter looked at Cream. "you have a good, pure heart. You're mother will be proud of what you are trying to do for her."

Peter smiled at Cream. wiping some tears from his eyes,
he leaned over to her, and kissed her again. "know that Ah' will TRY and return to you alive. but..if Ah' do die. ah' want you to promise me somethin"

"anything."

Peter looked into Cream's eyes as he spoke: "take care of mah' little sister, Belle. If me an' mom don't come back, she'll need YOU ta' look after her." Peter then made a dark expression. "source knows that ANTOINE can't be trusted to love and protect her."

"you can count on ME, Peter." said Cream.

Peter smiled at his girlfriend. "thanks, Cream."

[Later]

Peter and Cream returned to Rotor's Laboratory..finding him putting the finishing touches on Peter's gear.

"Rotor."

Rotor turned, and looked at the two teens. "Oh!, you're back. you sure took awhile."

both Peter and Cream blushed bright red. "y-yeah, well..w-we had some thangs ta' settle with."

"Well, I have your gear ready." began Rotor. "I don't need to explain to you how It works, since You've already had the rundown during training exercises."

Peter picked up one of the high-tech devices, and smiled. "Eeh-Yep. Ah' sure have."

"I also prepared a combat suit for you to wear." said Rotor. "It should give protection from the most standard of weaponry."

"What about UN-standard weaponry?" asked Cream.

Rotor darted his eyes. "well..I would advise you rely on your Stealth Tactics, then."

"hmph. and, mah' "DAD" thinks such skills aren't worth anythang." said Peter, with a hint of resentment.

"I'll warm up the Mobo-Buggy, then." with that, Rotor left.

Peter looked back at Cream, and smiled at her. "Ah'll be back soon..Ah' promise."

Cream nodded. "just be safe, Peter."

Peter linked his hands with Cream..then, kissed her one last time.
as her parted, Cream held onto his hands for as long as she could..but, then finally had to let go.

she watched forlornly as Peter departed, headed towards the garage where Rotor was.

once gone, Cream closed her eyes..and, whispered a prayer.

At the garage, Peter approached Rotor at an armored vehicle with oversized wheels.

"Nice car." said Peter.

"Thanks. One thing to note is that this one has a Wi-Fi Connection."

Peter eyed Rotor. "meaning?.."

"You can operate It by remote control if you need to."

"Awesome!" said Peter. "a car that drives itself."

as Peter approached the Buggy, Rotor then turned and looked at him.

"Peter, WAIT. there is something you should know before you go."

Peter raised an eyebrow. "what?"

Rotor exhaled sharply..then, finally spoke. "Bunnie..b-before she was taken captive, she told me about the nightmares you've been having."

"Well, that figures. Mom often likes to discuss mah' problems with all of yo-"

"They weren't dreams, Peter..they were memories."

Peter froze at this, a shocked expression on his face. "whut?"

Rotor inhaled deeply..then, breathed out. "ten years ago..when you were six, you recall an 'incident' at school, right?"

"yeah..Ah' was attacked by some dog."

"no..you wasn't. You were kidnapped by the Mobians Forever."

Peter's eyes widened. "pardon?"

"you were taken captive..and tortured." continued Rotor. "Bunnie rose all hell to get you back..but, by the time she did, your mind was broken from the torment that you endured."
In order to restore your mind, i..I used a machine to erase your memories of the event."

Peter just stood as still as a statue, stunned at this news. "erased ma- but..but, Why!?"

"I told you, we were trying to-"

"NO!, Ah' mean WHY am Ah' remembering It?! Why have Ah' been seein' all that in Mah' dreams!?"

Rotor shrugged. "I don't know. I wish I had a definite answer..but, I really don't know."

Peter sighed sharply. "well..then, Ah' REALLY need ta' save mah' mother, now: She did th' same fer' me when AH' was a captive."

As Peter got into the buggy, Rotor looked at him. "Bunnie would be PROUD of what you are doing."

Peter bore a stern expression as he turned the vehicle on. "nobody hurts mah' mom, and gits ta' laugh about it..NO ONE."

Rotor nodded. he then pressed a button on a remote, opening some far off hanger doors. "Good luck, Peter."

Peter narrowed his eyes as he sped off out of the garage at top speed.
as he departed Freedom HQ, and headed towards the city..he gripped the steering wheel tightly.

"hold on, mom..ah'm comin' ta' get you. just hold on."

[To Be Continued..]


[Author Note]

Despite my best efforts to make this a two-parter like my previous Bunnie Rabbot Stories,

my added PeterxCream content forced me to move the bulk of the action to a Third Part.

That said, I feel I should remind readers that Cream is SIXTEEN in this story

(so, I don't want to receive any flames over "underage sex." Cream is No LONGER six in this point in time!)

and, like the previous "lemon" scenes in prior stories, this will serve a purpose later

(like you DON'T know what that purpose is by now!)

This chapter focuses on Peter's side of things.

showing that he really loves his mother, and his fully aware of what Bunnie has done for him.

as the title of this story shows, Peter's motivation stems from "wishing to repay Bunnie for her Kindness"

Also (to add to the drama) I made a point that Peter and Antoine's relationship ISN'T very strong.

and, by now has gotten to a point that Peter prefers the surname "Rabboh"

(which was Bunnie's family name before she altered It to "Rabbot", following her robotization.)

Peter's disownership of Antoine as his father may seem harsh to some.

but, I think It may be fair, given how Antoine no longer views Peter as his own son

(since Antoine has 'Jacques' now, he naturally favors his biological son over BUNNIE'S adoptive one.)

When It came to how Peter finds Bunnie, I had to get "creative"

in my prior story, Bunnie found where Peter was with a DNA Tracker (provided by Buns Rabbot/The Anti-Bunnie.)

but, despite this being a parallel to THAT story, I wanted Peter to find Bunnie through different means.

I realized that AFTER the events of "Hell Have No Fury".

Bunnie's fear and paranoia would lead her to do SOMETHING to keep better track of where Peter.

I decided on the ol' "Microchip Implant" scenario

(which Bunnie could EASILY track using her own cybernetic.)

It was then that I realized that Peter COULD use the GPS signal of his own chip

to track Bunnie's own cybernetics, and zero in on her location

(This clever idea is not only plausible for readers,

but, shows just how smart Peter is in finding solutions to problems.)

I should note that the "docked ship" hideout for the Earth Masters

I based primarily on "The Final Offer" from Batman: Arkham Origins.

(in fact, much of the next chapter will be based on the Batman: Arkham style of action.)
