When Cherry came in the room, it seemed a little dark and creepy, but to her, that was in a good way. "Wow!" she then said while looking around. "This room looks awesome!"
"Thanks." Mina smiled to her.
"It must be great to live in a place like this." Mo smiled back.
"Yeah, it is pretty cool," Mina smiled. "Especially in a big city like this. I used to live in a small town before Dad and I got this house from Aunt Marie."
"That was nice of her." Atticus said.
"So... Who do we have here?" Mina asked as she picked up and held Patch who smiled in the hold.
"That's Patch," Atticus smiled. "He's my dog."
Mina began to scratch Patch behind his right ear. Patch's eyes widened as his tongue dangled out of his mouth and his right leg thumped up and down while his tail wagged. This was bad since he wasn't a normal dog. Atticus began to get nervous.
"It's an earthquake! It's an earthquake!" Chester panicked as his fur stood on end.
"Heheh, my turn, Mina!" Harold laughed excitedly.
Mina soon started to scratch Harold behind his ear which caused Patch to stop thumping his right leg.
"Yikes, kid, what kind of dog are you anyway?!" Chester asked with wide eyes. "Are you a super zombie or somethin'?!"
"I'm not a super zombie, but I do have super strength." Patch told him.
"Really...?" Harold asked out of amazement and excitement.
Patch nodded. Bunnicula began to rambling something while doing some movements. Mina giggled as she bonded with Cherry, Atticus, and Mo, and they all seemed to become fast friends.
"Uh... I'm sorry...?" Patch blinked to Bunnicula, not really understanding him.
Patch's dog tag/Pound Puppy tag/Equestrian medallion soon glowed, and where it's magic made Bunnicula's language understandable.
"Did you see his collar?" Harold asked Chester. "It glowed like magic!"
"Oh, joy... I love magic..." Chester muttered in misfortune.
"Really? I thought you hated magic?" Harold asked idiotically.
"Sarcasm, Harold." Chester face-pawed.
"What's a sarcasm?" Harold smiled innocently. "It sounds yummy!"
"Uh, you were saying Bunnicula?" Patch asked the vampire bunny rabbit.
Bunnicula cleared his throat before he would talk. "I said, hello, and welcome to Mina's apartment," He then said to Patch. "It's really nice to meet you, friend."
"Oh, thanks, Bunnicula, it's nice to meet you too." Patch smiled.
Bunnicula began to sniff Patch's medallion/Pound Puppy tag. Patch chuckled sheepishly.
"Hmm... This is an interesting collar..." Bunnicula commented. "Not at all like Harold's."
"Thanks, my Equestrian medallion/Pound Puppy tag made it after my old collar broke." Patch told him before covering his muzzle.
"Equestrian...?" Bunnicula asked, slowly saying the name.
"Uh, I mean, Atticus's family made it for me..." Patch smiled nervously. "Uh, yeah, that's it."
Bunnicula hummed suspiciously while eyeing Patch. Patch grinned sheepishly to them.
"Well, it's cool for you guys to come over, but not a lot goes on around here." Mina said to her new friends.
"Oh, I'm sure that there's something interesting." Mo said before she saw a giant cockroach. This made her gasp with wide eyes.
"Not that I've ever seen..." Mina shrugged as she got up. "You guys want some juice or something?"
"Yeah, why not?" Cherry replied before seeing what Mo saw and looked a bit disturbed and disgusted.
"Uh, you guys okay?" Mina asked.
"Uh-huh." Mo smiled nervously.
"I'll be right back." Mina smiled as she then walked off.
The others smiled before looking horrified.
"It's a giant bug!" Cherry cried out, sounding scared and grossed out.
"Maybe this is how we can show Mina that this house is more interesting than she thinks." Atticus smiled.
"With a giant bug?!" Cherry asked before glaring. "Drell didn't say anything about giant bugs! Ooh, I am gonna give him a piece of my mind!"
Some saliva soon dripped onto her. Cherry blinked and looked up and saw the cockroach over top of her, seeming to be drooling. Cherry soon screamed and ran out of the room out of fear. Mina was soon humming to herself as she came out of the fridge and took out some juice.
"GIANT BUUUUUG!" Cherry cried out. "IT DROOLED ON ME!"
"Did you say 'giant bug'?" Mina smiled.
"I think it was a roach..." Cherry said as she climbed on top of the counter since she hated bugs.
"Ooh, I gotta see this!" Mina beamed and ran into her bedroom.
Unfortunately, Chester thought that Mina would freak out.
"Chester, what are you doing?" Patch asked as the cat tried to hide the giant cockroach.
"I have to protect Mina from this thing!" Chester told him.
"Oh, come on; I doubt it would eat or hurt Mina." Patch replied.
"Oh, really? " Chester asked while not panicking that the giant cockroach was going to eat him like this has happened before.
"Big Cockroach is a friend of mine." Bunnicula smiled.
"Then why is he trying to eat Chester? And has this happened before, because Chester looks unfazed." Atticus said.
Chester and Bunnicula were soon surprised when Atticus asked the vampire bunny those questions as if he understood him.
"Oh, it has happened before," Harold smiled. "It was one of our first adventures."
"Whoa, whoa, wait, wait, wait..." Chester spoke up. "You can talk to us?"
"Yeah, me, my girlfriend, and my best friend who ran out screaming can talk to animals." Atticus smiled.
"I like your friend," Harold laughed. "She's funny. She reminds me a lot of Chesty."
"What did I say about calling me that?" Chester complained.
"Anyway, how many times has your friend tried to eat Chester?" Patch asked Bunnicula.
"TOO MANY!" Chester flipped out.
"Just a few times... I think he's just playing with Chester though." Bunnicula chuckled innocently.
"Just to be safe though, spit him out." Atticus told the giant cockroach.
The giant cockroach roared at him.
"Easy, big fella, we can trust him." Bunnicula told the insect.
The giant cockroach soon looked to the vampire bunny and soon let go of Chester.
"It must be great to be a vampire bunny." Patch smiled at Bunnicula.
"Well, it can be sometimes, but... There is something I sometimes want." Bunnicula said.
"Yeah? What's that?" Patch asked.
"Well, sometimes I wish I could be-... No, no, it's silly..." Bunnicula replied.
"Oh, come on; how silly could it be?" Mo smiled.
Bunnicula looked over to her. "I wanna be like you guys..." he then said.
"We just met?" Atticus replied.
"No, I mean... Human..." Bunnicula explained.
"Ohh." Mo and Atticus smiled.
"But why?" Patch asked.
"I'm not sure... It just seems... A little easy..." Bunnicula said. "Plus, I really wanna talk to Mina sometimes. She means the world to me."
Patch had a theory of what Bunnicula meant by that as he used his magic to bring out some ink blots.
"Uh... What's this?" Bunnicula asked Patch.
"A Rorschach test." Patch smiled.
"You mean one of those Watchmen guys?" Harold asked. "I think Mina said someone in her school reads about colorful books with pretty pictures in them about those guys!"
"Was he dropped on his head when he was a puppy?" Mo asked Chester.
"It wouldn't surprise me..." Chester muttered.
"Okay, Bunnicula, I'll show you some ink blots, and you just tell me the first thing you see." Patch told the vampire bunny.
"Okay." Bunnicula smiled.
"Knowing Bunnicula, it might be something supernatural." Chester muttered.
"Let's get started," Patch said as he showed an ink blot which looked like a splattered mess. "What does this remind you of?"
"Some blood." Bunnicula said after a moment.
"Um, okay." Patch said before bring out another ink blot.
Bunnicula tilted his head while taking a look.
"Does it look like a cookie? I LOVE COOKIES!" Harold beamed, jumping up and down.
"I... I think it looks like Mina actually..." Bunnicula said.
Patch nodded before bringing out another ink blot.
"Mina in a pretty dress..." Bunnicula said.
Patch blinked as he noticed that Bunnicula seemed to only see Mina. "Alright, one more." He smiled as he showed one final ink blot.
"Me and Mina together..." Bunnicula smiled as his ears seemed to make a heart shape over his head.
"Okay... I think I can come in now..." Cherry said as she walked back into the room. "As long as I don't see anything really weird... What's going on in here?"
"Bunnicula seems to be in love with Mina." Atticus said.
Cherry blinked a few times and soon turned around to go back out.
"And here comes the reaction." Mo sighed.
Drell and Arthur continued to talk like they were old friends.
"Can we go home now?" Cherry asked Drell. "PLEASE?!"
"Why?" Drell asked.
"I can't take any more weirdness..." Cherry said. "First there's a giant cockroach, and now a bunny's in love with a human!"
Drell simply went face-palm as he gestured her to look at Arthur who was still in the room.
"Oops..." Cherry said with a sheepish smile.
Drell brought out his wand and waved it in front of Arthur's face. "'I think we need some more drinks'."
"I think we need some more drinks..." Arthur said, almost like a zombie. He soon walked out the room to get more drinks.
"Sorry, I guess I got too excited..." Cherry smiled nervously. "This won't go on my permanent record, will it?"
"No, and we're not leaving." Drell told her.
"I was afraid you'd say that..." Cherry groaned, putting her face in the arm of the couch.
"So you say Bunnicula likes Mina?" Drell asked.
"That's what I heard from the others." Cherry shrugged.
"Hmm... So that's why he made that wish." Drell smiled.
"You're okay with this?!" Cherry flipped out.
"What can I say? Love is strange." Drell shrugged.
"This is so awesome!" Mina's voice cheered.
"Gah!" Cherry yelped and turned over.
Arthur soon came back with drinks.
"Well, run along now..." Drell told Cherry. "Don't make me make you leave..."
Cherry soon went to check and see how everything was going with the others.
Mina smiled to the others.
"This sure is an interesting place to live, isn't it, Mina?" Mo smiled, hoping to get Mina to cheer up as she thought her new home wasn't all that interesting.
"It sure is." Mina smiled back as she noticed the giant cockroach.
"It's still there!" Cherry grimaced, feeling disgusted and scared.
"Will you calm down? He won't hurt any of us." Atticus told her.
"Well, keep it away from me..." Cherry groaned.
"I wonder where that guy came from, huh, Bunnic?" Mina smiled as she nuzzled noses with her pet bunny.
"The window." Mo said as she pointed to the open window.
"That's one way to travel." Mina giggled.
Chester still felt nervous around the giant cockroach.
"Mina's so smart." Harold smiled.
"Thanks for coming over, buddy." Bunnicula told the giant cockroach.
The giant cockroach began to reply in his recent language before leaving out the window.
"Aww... Okay..." Bunnicula pouted as the giant cockroach had to go so soon.
"Thank goodness he is gone!" Chester said out of relief. "Now maybe I can relax..." he then yawned and stretched like a typical cat before curling up into a ball.
"Too bad your friend couldn't stay longer, Bunnicula." Mina told the vampire bunny.
Bunnicula nodded to her.
"I'm sure he'll come back soon for a visit." Mina comforted him.
"If you think that was supernatural, you should see what Bunnicula can do." Patch smiled.
"Oh, but he's just a cute little bunny who could do no wrong..." Mina smiled as she hugged Bunnicula in her arms.
"Well..." Atticus and Mo replied.
"Wait, did your dog just talk?" Mina asked Atticus.
"Heh... Supernatural." Atticus smirked.
"This is amazing!" Mina beamed as she soon came to Patch. "Can you say 'She sells seashells by the sea shore'?"
"Not too many times fast, it twists my tongue." Patch chuckled to Mina.
"This is so awesome!" Mina cheered.
"See, Chester? Mina's alright with the supernatural and isn't freaking out at all." Harold smiled at the cat.
"Hm... I suppose so..." Chester commented as he watched this.
"Ooh! Maybe our new friends can help us talk to her!" Harold beamed. "I wanna tell Mina how much I love her when she calls me a good boy!"
Atticus knew exactly how to give Mina the ability to talk to animals, but he just knew that Mo would get enraged with what he would do. Mo looked over.
"Uh... Um... Would you mind... If... Uh..." Atticus stammered, not sure how to ask her before he would do it so she wouldn't get mad about it later.
Mo blinked, unsure what Atticus was trying to say before she remembered what Harold said and decided to just turn around and kept her eyes shut. Atticus nodded as he took a deep breath and kissed Mina. Mina's eyes widened since that was quite surprising.
"HEY!" Bunnicula hissed. "HANDS OFF!"
Atticus soon stopped kissing Mina just as Bunnicula had came back with a can of spinach after leaving to get it.
"Whoa!" Mina yelped and wiped herself. "Dude, we just met, did you really have to kiss me?"
"Sorry, it was the only way to give you the ability to talk to animals." Atticus told her.
Mina blinked and soon picked up her bunny in her hands. "Bunnicula... Can you... Under... Stand... Me...?" she then asked slowly and loudly.
"Yeeeeesssss..." Bunnicula replied in the same way, almost hissing since he had vampire fangs.
"Oh, my gosh! I really can talk to animals now!" Mina cheered.
Bunnicula smiled to her happiness.
"Oh, Bunnicula, this is great!" Mina beamed as she hugged him and let him go before coming to the floor. "HEY, CHESTER AND HAROLD!"
Chester yowled before jumping up and latching onto the ceiling. Mo seemed to find that funny since Chester was the same breed of cat that her aunt's cats were.
"Hi, Mina, it's me, Harold!" Harold smiled.
"Hi, Harold!" Mina smiled back, hugging him.
"Wait, you can understand him now?" Chester asked him as his claws released, causing him to fall down from the ceiling.
"I can understand you too, Chester!" Mina smiled to her cat.
"But how?" Chester asked.
"This might be confusing, but it's because Atticus kissed me." Mina said.
"You kissed Mina?!" Chester asked Atticus. "Why?!"
"Because my parents told me that's how you transfer animal speech to somebody." Atticus smiled innocently.
"What are you?" Bunnicula asked, ready to suck the juice out of the spinach.
"A supernatural freak." Cherry muttered.
"Hey, I'm not a freak!" Atticus scolded.
"Sorry." Cherry snickered.
"I'm a Wiccan, as well as a mer-person/folk." Atticus told Mina, Chester, Harold, and Bunnicula who was already sucking all the spinach juice out of the vegetable.
Chester soon brought out a book that had info on Merfolk.
"He's a mermaid." Cherry smirked.
"You know very well that I'm a merboy." Atticus narrowed his eyes.
Chester flipped through the pages before he found the page he was looking for, and where it said the same thing Atticus told them just as Bunnicula grew in size and was now the size of a body-builder.
"Mm... That's good spinach..." Bunnicula smiled.
"So, it was you who keeps taking our vegetables." Mina smirked playfully to her bunny.
Bunnicula smiled bashfully before still glaring at Atticus for kissing the girl he loved. Atticus smiled sheepishly to the vampire bunny rabbit.
"I don't believe it," Mina smiled. "Huh, I bet Marsha was really onto something whenever she saw something that no one else would."
"Uh, Bunnicula, he's telling the truth mer-folk are able to do that with other people." Chester told the now body-builder vampire bunny.
Bunnicula swiped the book from Chester and looked at it. "Wait a minute..." he said before narrowing his eyes. "I can't read..."
Chester rolled his eyes to that.
"This is great though!" Harold beamed. "Now we can all share stories together, like those times we had to save Mina's life from danger!"
"Wait, you had to save her life from danger by sharing stories?" Mo asked.
"No, no, Harold's just talking about those times when something crazy was happening and we had to help Mina and the town, but she wouldn't have a clue about it." Chester explained.
"Ohh." Mo smiled.
Luckily, the book had pictures which showed how mer-folk could give people the ability to talk to animals.
"See, Bunnicula?" Atticus asked. "As nice as Mina seems, I'm not in love with her, I kissed her so you guys could talk."
"Hmm... Well, I guess you're off the hook," Bunnicula shrugged before glaring. "But I got my eye on you." His right eye soon pointed out to Atticus.
"W-What?!" Patch asked, amused and disgusted at the same time.
"Oh, Bunnicula, you're silly." Mina giggled to her pet bunny.
"Bunnicula, we can help you become human while still having your powers." Atticus told him.
"Yeah...?" Bunnicula asked. "How powerful are you guys?!"
Atticus, Mo, and Cherry soon showed their Equestrian medallions.
"What're these?" Bunnicula asked, pulling on Cherry's.
"Equestrian medallion," Cherry said. "These help us in emergencies, mostly for whenever we're called into the magical land of Equestria."
"And we're sure that if we can combine their magic together..." Mo started with a smile.
"...We can turn you human while still having one of your bunny features." Atticus finished with a smile.
"Hmm... That does sound interesting..." Bunnicula commented. "What do you guys have to do?"
"We just have to combine our medallions together." Patch told him.
"That doesn't sound so hard," Bunnicula said. "So that's what your collar is?"
"Yeah, it's part Pound Puppy tag and Equestrian medallion," Patch nodded. "We should let our powers combine."
Mo giggled to that saying. The four of them soon let their medallions come together and where a rainbow color started to happen. A rainbow alicorn seemed to be made from the combined Equestrian magic and it soon zapped its horn down at Bunnicula. Chester looked nervous while Harold and Mina looked awestruck. Bunnicula was soon engulfed in the magic as his body soon started to change. His paws were replaced with hands and feet, his fur became skin and hair on his head, and he soon became a boy that looked somewhat older than Mina and he soon landed.
