Shiroi Usagi was so upset with herself. She and her partner Lupus were in trouble and she had to go and hurt herself. They were cornered with no way out. This gang they were fighting were relentless and if they succeeded in their plans, the whole city was in danger. The leader, a woman of prominent standing, was enjoying seeing these two heroes on the ropes.
"Give it up little bunny! You and your mangy mutt stand no chance! Just give me the case and I may let the two of you live."
Shiroi and Lupus were hiding in an unfinished exhibit at the Natural History museum. Lupus was trying to keep an eye out for trouble while his partner leaned against the wall, holding a case and breathing heavily.
"Bun Bun, we need to get out of here. Get this case to the authorities," whispered Lupus.
"I know," she huffed out. "Just give me a second."
"Wait, are you hurt? Why didn't you tell me?"
"I didn't want to worry you. I think I can make it."
Shiroi tried to stand up and Lupus helped her. The moment she put weight on her foot, she winced and fell.
"You are in no shape to be jumping around. We need a plan," hissed Lupus.
The bunny girl looked at the case and opened it. Inside was a dart gun and two vials. She looked over at her wolf partner.
"I have an idea. Do you trust me," she asked.
"Always."
The woman was getting anxious. She needed that case back and time was running out. Her so called hired help wasn't much help at all. The two heroes put a real dent in her operations and that case was all she had left to get it back on track. She couldn't wait to turn that bunny girl's feet into key chains and to put down her dog partner.
"Come on out little girl. It's rabbit season, and I aim to collect. You should have stayed out of this; I had warned you multiple times." The woman saw movement and signaled her goons toward it. "Tis a shame really, I could have used someone like you. Your partner, well, I never liked dogs."
When she and her goons turned the corner, there wasn't anyone there. They heard footsteps and turned to see Lupus carrying Shiroi Usagi. A goon came out of nowhere and knocked them down. Other goons pounced on them and the two heroes were tossed into an open hole in the floor. The woman picked up the case. She opened it and loaded the dart gun.
"I have to admit, you two were quite persistent. Picking up on the patterns, following the clues. You did help me in getting Mr. Lamont out of the way; however, I can't have the two of you leave here alive. So, let's see how well your dog handles this."
The woman fired the gun and a dart struck Lupus in the neck. He flinched and cried out.
"No! Lupus," whimpered Shiroi Usagi rushing to his side.
"It's too late, the serum is already taking affect."
Soon, Lupus' whimpers turned to growling. Shiroi backed away in fear.
"Wolfie! It's me, your Bun Bun," she cried.
Lupus looked at her with rage in his eyes, teeth bared and stalking her slowly. Ready to jump like the wolf he personified.
"He's too far gone, my Aggro Virus is quick and effective. He won't stop until he's put down. And it will be after he tears you apart."
"And you're gonna infect the city with it?"
"That's right. And with half the population in fear of getting infected at unknown moments, I come in with the antidote for the right price. I'll be a very rich woman and I will infect all of Paris to do it!"
Shiroi was backed against the wall. Lupus was inching closer to her, ready to tear her apart.
"It's not going to work! You're not getting away with this!"
"Oh, but I am," smirked the woman. "Bye-bye bunny," she snarled.
Lupus then grabbed Shiroi's neck and she screamed. That is until Lupus let go and smirked while Shiori put on a big show.
"Blood! Blood everywhere! Aaaaaand...death!"
"Okay, you're milkin' it," chuckled Lupus. "We got it," he called up to the woman and goons up top.
"What?! How is this possible?!"
"That dart you hit me with; completely empty," snickered Lupus.
"We emptied it and put it with the case. And there were two darts," added Shiroi holding up the other dart. "I'm sure the authorities would love to be able to get a working antidote from this."
"Yes but you do realize that it's my word against yours," the woman retorted.
Then Lupus pulled his phone out and played back part of a recording.
"I'll be a very rich woman and I will infect all of Paris to do it," came the woman's voice from the phone.
"Actually, it's your word against yours," Lupus stated. "Oh and we've already called the police who should be arriving," he paused and heard sirens. "Now."
The police swarmed the suspects and arrested the woman and her goons. Paramedics looked over Shiroi Usagi's foot and patched it up.
"How is your foot," asked Lupus.
"Much better now, it's just a sprain."
"Will you be able to get home okay?"
"Yeah, I should." Lupus raised an eyebrow. "I'm not gonna go hopping around on the rooftops," she said with an eye roll.
"Good, I don't want to see you hurt even worse," he whispered coming closer and kissed her forehead. "Bye-bye Bunny," he said sweetly.
"Bye Wolfie," she whispered while blushing and walked away.
