Chapter Nine- Jadis, I Mean the White Witch, Returns as a Hamster, I Mean a Bunny
Unbeknownst to Lucy, when she had pulled Eustace into Narnia, he was at the Pet Shop for no apparent reason, and was holding a hamster. The rodent was whisked back with him, and had escaped his clutch, only to find itself On The Menu.
Lucy, however, was such a bad cook, that when encountering the hamster, she cocked her head, wondering if she was to slice or cube it. Fool! All the Royal Cooks were silently cursing her naivety. You mince or dice it. Get out of our kitchen!
Needless to say, it escaped in her hesitation.
As it traveled along the tops of the portraits in the Grand hall that was Only Used For Skating Practice, it thought to itself, 'you know? I think I'll randomly turn into a bunny, for Old Time's Sake.'
It proceeded to do so, Scaring the Living Day-Lights out of a nearby maid.
Lucy, being So Very Bored with Life In General, took a tour through the castle for the eighth time that day, as dragging Eustace back to his cell was Not Nearly Fun Enough.
As she passed the shrieking maid, she caught sight of the brown figure perched in the poor woman's bun. She reached over and lifted it out of the hair-do.
She gladly bounced back to the throne room, and presented Susan with the furry, nose-twitching character who had not previously been on the Minor Char. List.
"And who is this new development?" Susan cooed, rubbing noses with the thing.
Peter groaned. "Not again. Susan, put the rabbit down."
Susan chuckled. "No."
The bunny, which was tired of Susan's man-handling, gave a sharp squeal and exploded.
Into the White Witch.
She smiled coldly and began to walk toward them, only to be knocked to the ground by a huge Persian cat, who sat and licked her paws on the Witch's head.
