REVIEW RESPONSE

Rock Raider: Don't worry, Zach will win the next training match. It will have to wait until the next chapter though, but that is a promise. About your air vent comment, I was aware of that but it was unsafe to use the vent in the classroom because of the guards and they had to deal with the guard that was with them before doing anything else. A minor point of correction, Furball was never at the looniversity. He saw love coverage on televiision with Runt and Rita. As for Rita and Furball, if you remember Tales of Symphonia, Zelos said that age has no meaning in love at one point, besides, I personally think they make a cute couple.

Nightw2: I suppose I surprised a lot of people by includinng Swackhammer. It had been intended for since this idea popped into my head (when I wrote the first FoxFang). Interesting point about it making perfect sense. And yes, Zach and Jess will be better than each other at some things. Glad you liked Rita and Furball. I will reveal OxHorn's identity in a later chapter, you'll just have to keep guessing for onw.

PurpleCobra247: I think I surprised almost everyone like that. I'm glad you like the chapter. Please keep reading.

acosta pérez josé ramiro: Yeah, for Swackhammer, Terrorists are better than the Nerdlucks. Glad you liked the inclusion of Runt and Rita. What you said about their age, that the way I see them. Your list of female heroes, you could add Samus Aran from the Metroid games to that list. I liked your reason for females turning into heroes.

This story is top priority for me at the moment so I'll probably finish this first.

Escape!

Jessica and Zach were in the locker corridor. They had just finished hiding the Koed guard in a lovker and were checking the corridors that led to them. So far they were all clear.

"Ok, now we need to get moving. It's only a matter of time before someone realises what's happened." Jessica muttered. Zach had climbed up onto one of the lockers and was reaching up towards a ventilation shaft. Jessica looked up and saw Zach fiddling with the cover and smiled.

"Ah the old air vent escape route, clichéd but effective." Jessica uttered. She leapt up next to Zach and helped him remove the cover. It didn't take long and they were able to sneak into the airvent. Jessica pulled toe cover back on as she entered.

"Right, so which way do we go?" Zach asked.

"Firstly, let's move away from the cover." Jessica replied. They slowly crawled away from the cover, and just in time as a guard walked past.

"I swore I heard something, must be me." The guard muttered. He just walked by completely clueless. Jessica and Zach gave a sigh of relief.

"Are all humans so stupid?" Jessica asked in a whisper.

"Maybe." Zach replied.

"Now let's go."

"Where to?"

"I want to find the Principle's office."

"To see what Swackhammer is up to?"

"Yeah, if he's going to put the citty in danger, we need to act fast."

"We need to search."

"It shouldn't be too hard." The two rabbits began crawling through the vent to try and find the Principle's office.


News of the terrorist situation had also reached Pepe le pew and Fifi La Fume. They were working in the jewellery store restocking the jewels FoxFang had recovered when they noticed the incident on the news. The whole task was actually taking a while because the day before had been very busy. The 'Diamondo De Francais' was open but was not very busy. Fifi La Fune was the first to notice the news. She was in the staff room grabbing a hot drink with the television on. She took one look at the gasped in horror.

"Pepe, come look at zis!" Fifi shouted. Pepe rushed in as fast as he could.

"What is it?" Pepe asked. Fifi pointed to the TV.

"Something's happening at the Looniversity." They both watched the TV screen and saw the scenario themselves. Police cars were everywhere, but no one dared go near the building. In a red banner at the bottom of the screen, the main newspoint was displayed.

"Al-Qaeda holds children hostage at Looniversity. One police officer killed by landmine. Over 200 children captive." The message said. Pepe and Fifi showed horrified expressions.

"Oh my!" Pepe exclaimed.

"Zis is terrible." Fifi added.

"Second day as well."

"It's not just ze children, their teachers as well."

"Yeah, and some of my friends, and my little pidgeon."

"You mean Penelope?"

"Ah oui." Fifi was about to point something out but then something else happened. The front doors of the Looniversity opened and Swackhammer strpped out. The camera zoomed in close to him, which made Fifi and Pepe gasp in horror.

"Swackhammer!" Fifi exclaimed.

"Oh no." Pepe muttered.


Back at the Bunnies' burrow, Bugs and Lola were still in bed watching the news. They were also horrified at Swackhammer on the television.

"Great, he's back." Bugs groaned.

"I'm not well enough for this." Lola added. Swackhammer pulled out a microphone and began talking to the police.

"Everyone! Let me first say that the children are all alive, for the moment. They will remain here until my demands are met! No-one try to approach as the whole area is surrounded by land mines." Swackhammer began. To prove his point, he threw a marble at the ground. The marble exploded as soon as it hit the grass.

"Yipe!" Bugs and Lola shouted together. Swackhammer turned back to the police.

"Ok, my demands are quite clear. I need to speak with Bugs Bunny. Find him and bring him here. And Bugs Bunny, if you can hear me, listen. Surrender to my rule and come with us to Moron Mountain, or all the children in this school will be murdured. You have until morning to come." With that, Swackhammer turned around and re-entered the Looniversity. Bugs and Lola were looking at each other in disbelief.

"That man is a maniac." Bugs exclaimed.

"But he has our daughter hostage." Lola added.

"I know, and she really isn't strong enough."

"What do we do Bugs?"

"I really don't know. It's a matter of weighing up priorities."

"Aren't you forgetting someone?"

"What do you mean?"

"Do you really think FoxFang would take this lying down?"

"That's true. He might be our only hope."

"He is our only hope."


Back at the Looniversity, Jessica and Zach were crawling through the air vent searching for the principle's office. They remained quiet as a mouse to avoid detection and moved very slowly. They got lost quite a lot but they eventually found themselves above the principle's office. There was a metal grating below them, which allowed them to peer into the office.

"Where's Swackhammer?" Zach asked in a whisper.

"Don't know." Jessica replied. Suddenly, the door opened and Swackhammer returned. He had a rather smug look on his face. Jessica and Zach leant over very carefully and listened in on the conversation. If anything was visible, it was only the very tip of their ears.

"That went well." Swackhammer muttered.

"What did?" Daffy asked.

"I've just made my demands. Now it's only a matter of time until Bugs arrives." Swackhammer was interrupted by his walkie talkie. He picked it up and listened.

"What is it…yeah……WHAT!…Who escaped?…Two rabbits, one grey with blonde hair…you're not sure about the other?……Find them and shoot them!" Swackhammer was furious about learning that Jessica and Zach had escaped. Daffy looked quite smug.

"She certinly has her fathers' flare." He said aloud. Realising what he'd said, he clamped his mouth shut, but it was too late. Swackhammer had heard him and walked over to him.

"So one of them is Bugs' daughter. The one with the blonde hair no doubt. This makes things interesting." Swackhammer said evilly. He reached ofr his walkie talkie.

"All troops, find a grey female rabbiut with a blonde fringe. Grab her and bring her to me. She is the daughter oof Bugs. Find her now!" Swackhammer then turned back to Daffy.

"What do you intend to do to Jess…" Daffy shut up before giving away too much, but it was too late.

"So, her name is Jessica. All I'll do is force her to tell me where her father is…at GUNPOINT!" Swackhammer said evilly.

"It's up to FoxFang now." Daffy muttered again.

"Who?" Swackhammer asked.

"FoxFang, our hero. He will surely come to stop you."

"I'd like to se him try. I have the whole of Al-Qaeda on my side. Whoever he is, he doesn't stand a chance."

"He can defeat you…and he will!"


Back in the vent, Zack and Jessica had stoppped listening and were retreating from the Principle's office. When they were a safe distnce from all air vent entrances, Zach showed a look of disgust while Jessica had placed her hand on her forehead. They both began talking in a whisper, disgusted by Daffy's beak flapping.

"Daffy, Daffy, Daffy." Jessica muttered.

"His beak moves faster than his brain." Zach added.

"Well, there goes our chance of a surprise attack. They'll be expecting us now."

"We'd better move. As long as you're here, you are in danger."

"I know, but I'm finding it difficult to leave everyone in danger." Zach put a hand on Jessica's shoulder.

"There's nothing we can do until tonight."

"I know, let's go." They were interrupted when Jessica's Fangwave rumbled wihout making a sound.

"Oh, message." Jessica exclaimed. She took out the Fangwave and had a look.

"You set it to silent didn't you?" Zach asked.

"Yeah, I've had it like thai since we entered the air vent." Jessica opened the message.

"Who's it from?"

"Shirley." Jessica read the message in a whisper, but loud enough foo Zach to hear.

"Guys, if you can get to the roof, I'll teleport you back to the Foxcave. Don't try going on the ground, it's littered with land mines. Egghead drew up a map of the vents for you to use. It's attached to this e-mail. Use it and reach the roof. I'll see you there. Shirley"

"Huh, so that's what those explosions were." Jessica muttered.

"What were they then?" Zach asked.

"Land mines."

"What does she want?"

"She's sent us a map of the ventilation system. If we use it to reach the roof, she'll teleport us back to the Foxcave."

"Ok, let's go."


After a few minutes of careful travel through the ventilation, Jessica and Zach finally arrived at the roof of the Looniversity. When they reached the roof, they took care to avoid the windows. The first thing they saw was the ship on the roof. It was a mixture of blue and green with yellow throusters on the side. It was completely shut, there was no way of entering the ship at the moment, but the sight took their breath away.

"I'll bet Swackhammer plans to use that to escape." Jessica muttered.

"That means he's an alien." Zach added.

"This is not going to be easy. He'll likely have far superior equipment to what we have."

"Don't let that put you off." A voice from behind said. Jessica and Zach quickly turned around and ssighed in relief to see Shirley.

"Phew, it's you." Zach muttered..

"Glad you got ou." Shirley replied.

"It was harder than you think." Jessica muttered.

"Well, let's go." Shirley said. Jessica and Zach grabbed Shirley's arms and she Teleported everyone back to the Foxcave. They arrived near the mother computer, where Egghead Jr. and Plucky were waiting.

"Glad to see you're safe." Plucky muttered. Jessica and Zach fell to the floor in relief.

"Phew, now we can do something." Jessica muttered.

"But we have to wait until night." Zach added.

"Until then, you guys had better do some preperations." Plucky said.

"How come?" Zach asked.

"Swackhammer and Al-Qaeda are dangerous, especially since they are armed with guns."

"It's not like you to think like that."

"Heh, I do when I need to."

"Ok, everyone gather round. We have a plan to make." Jessica called out. Everyone came to her and they sat in a circle. Egghead laid a large piece of paper in the centre and gave everyone a pen.

A/N: Ok, next chapter will be planning and some training. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Please read and review as normal
