"Come on Aster, Lily! We don't want Kike on our case again!" Lilis called out to the two small Pooka's, scrambling to keep up with the older black and white Pooka. E. Aster Bunnymund was a grey-blue and white Pooka, slightly larger than Lily Woodwalker, who had the same color fur, but was a lighter shade of the grey-blue. They looked like siblings, but they were just friends. It was mostly the eyes and their attitudes that made the trio different. Aster was loud and adventurous, Lily was quiet and timid, Aster favored his boomerangs, while Lily favored the bow and arrow; Aster's eyes where an emerald green, while Lily's were also emerald green, but sapphire blue was in her eyes as well, streaking into the green.
"We ain't as fast as you Lil!" Aster retorted to her as he approached.
"Well ain't isn't a word Aster.." Lilis scolded him, taping his nose. "And don't call me Lil."
"Ain't is to a word. I asked my mum about it!" Lily defended Aster as she bounced over to them. "And she says it all the time!" Aster nodded his head in agreement, his floppy ears bouncing in agreement. Lilis sighed.
"OK OK you two, just come on, Kike isn't gonna be happy if we're late!" Lilis said, patting the two youngsters on the back. Lily looked up at Lilis.
"But he's my older brother…"
Aster flinched back into reality as the memory finished. Lilis, Lily and Kike were good friends of his before they were killed by Pitch. Lily was more of a sister that he never had, and Kike was like the older brother he never had. Lily and Kike were orphans when his tribe found them, Kike, being the eldest, took care of his frail little sister. He sighed, remembering the fun times and the trouble the four of them managed to pull off. Finally, He arrived at the Bennett's house. Quickly, Bunny opened a hole to Jamie's room. Scanning the room for the vicious Greyhound Abby, he hopped out of the hole and slowly made his way to the door, not wanting to walk Jamie up from his peaceful sleep. Bunny then entered the hallway, remembering what Jack had said. A door just nearby Jamie's room was slightly ajar, but just enough for him to get through. What caught him off guard was the fact that the room looked like a boys room. Maps, hats and the bow and arrows indicated that this kid was defiantly a brumby type of person. Something shifted in the bed, startling the Easter Bunny enough to pull out his boomerangs. Quietly, he slowly approached the bed.
I was having a very bad dream, and one that involved giant bunny's. Pooka's….. I thought as I stood in the middle of the chaos, unable to do a thing to help the poor creatures. Homes were burning down, babies were wailing, mates cried when their loved one's fell, and black things attacked the Pooka's trying to defend their home. Suddenly, one of the black things looked at me, I felt my whole body stiffen. It lunged at me. Out of pure reflex, my fist balled up and I punched. I never thought that I would hit something, but my fist hit something right in the gut. Whatever it was, it was furry. OH SHIT! I PUCHED ABBY! I thought, eyes flying open and sitting up.
"BlimeyIamsosorryAbby,don'tscare-Bloody hell?" I stated, getting a good look at what I punched. It stood a good 6 or 7 feet, and that included the ears, had grey blue fur with white, wore leather bands, a slash and bands on his feet. I gape in utter disbelief, but before I could say anything, something hits me, sending me into a deep sleep.
Bunny groaned, rubbing the spot the teen had punched him. Crikey that kid can punch. Looking up, he noticed that they teen was dreaming of an archery contest and was winning. That was when Bunny realized that the teen was a girl and that The Sandman was outside his window, a stern look on his face. Bunny sighed.
"Hey I didn't know that the shelia was gonna do that!" Bunny told him, his face still slightly screwed in pain. Sandy flashed some symbols, "Why were you here in the first place?" "Jack told me that this teen still believes in me… I… I wanted to see if my hunch was right about who it was…." Bunny told him. Sandy then did an "Ooohh" face. Bunny shook his head, then an idea hit him. The girl was going to be starting high school tomorrow. "Oi, Sandy, got any of that special sand that you were telling me about?"
