When everything was finally better and everyone was sleeping well that's when I had a freaky dream. Well freaky to me. It started off like I was awake. I hate that if I wanted to be awake I'd be awake. So here I was….

I walked down some path in the forest. I knew it was somewhere behind the cemetery I'd walked this path a thousand times. Usually when I just want to clear my head of something. It had to be fall the leaves were changing and falling all around me.

"Ah, there you are." I spun around and there was vampire-boy. "I've been looking for you."

Everything around me started to get dark. Almost like now I was in some old black and white movie. My heart started pounding like I was afraid, and to be honest I was. There was nothing more that I wanted to do than run away. There was just something about his stance, his voice, his something that told me I should get out of there, but I was frozen.

"What no hug?"

"Why would I hug you?" I manage I just wanted to get out of there. My eyes kept darting to the side, that's when I saw them. His horses, his nightmares.

"They smell your fear."

"So?" I replied. I was getting cocky. It was my defense mechanism. I was afraid there was no doubt about that. Just because I was afraid didn't mean that I had to let my fear concur me.

"They feed off of fear." He started to walk towards me. "I can help you control your fear."

"It's alright to be afraid, it's normal to have fear, just have enough courage, and fight back," I muttered to myself. My mother had told me that when she was dying. Mother had some disease; I don't remember what it was anymore. "I have more courage than I do fear." I told him.

He gave me that stupid smirk of his. "Dear, you have more fear than anything else."

"No I don't!" I started to move towards him. "I know I can be afraid! There's nothing wrong with fearing the unknown! I can beat you and I will!" I ran to hit him, but than I woke up.

Like I said it was freaky. Almost like my brain was trying to tell me something. I did wake with my heart pounding and my breathing rapid. Yet I wasn't afraid it had to be the rush of the dream. I knew I was going to be okay. I looked out my window and saw that the moon was shining brightly into my room for some reason it was full. I could have sworn that last week had been the full moon.


Of course we redid the egg hunt again. We couldn't disappoint the younger kids. The older ones were excited too. Who wouldn't want just some random day that isn't Easter that they get to go out and find Easter eggs. The high school students hid them all. We do mean all of the suckers. Some of us were a little cruel in the older kid section. Since we did have some 12-15 year olds that participated in the hunt. Those guys/girls were going to have a hard time finding eggs.

"Bunny! Hop! Hop!" Sophie shouted and ran off. The twins were with Allison and Dad. They couldn't even lift their baskets anymore. "Bunny!"

"Sophie!" I jogged after the munchkin. I found here in a clearing floating in the air. I stopped hiding slightly in the bushes.

"Bunny!" She said again. It was like she was hugging the invisible creature. An egg appeared out of nowhere and was in her hands.

"Could it be? The Easter Bunny?" I whispered to myself or thought I don't really know I was in shock. I'd stopped believing years ago hadn't I? But if they were real than…no they couldn't be real…there is no way that they were real, but then I heard Jamie and his friends talking to Jack Frost. They were even talking about their adventure over Break about saving the world. "If that many kids believe than they have to exist right?"

"Just believe." A voice told me. I remembered Polar Express…I just had to believe no doubts I didn't have to see to believe.

"I believe." I muttered to myself. Almost like magic a giant rabbit appeared holding Sophie. "Holy." Overgrown bunny's ears turned towards me. "You do exist."

"You can see me?" His face turned to one of confusion.

"Yeah…you're the Easter Bunny." I said with a tone that was almost like I was a kid again on Christmas Morning. "You're the Easter Bunny. You're like huge!"

"Well ya…"

"You have an Australian accent!" I interrupted him. "This is so cool!" I smiled widely this was awesome.

"Bunny, Genny. Genny, Bunny." Sophie introduced us.

"E. Aster Bunnymund. Most call me Bunny." He said to me putting Sophie down and holding out a paw.

"Genevieve Louise Conrad. Call me Gen." I said taking his paw. "I can't believe I'm meeting the Easter Bunny. Who else is real?"

Bunny told me. He told me about how he knew Sophie about the Sandman, the Tooth Fairy, Santa, how Easter is better than Christmas, Jack Frost, and then he told me about Pitch Black.

"I met him."

"You met Pitch?"

"When I moved here." I told him how I met Pitch and all of my little instances with him. Not that there were many.

"Why do ya still believe?" Bunny asked me.

"I didn't." I honestly answered. "I stopped at about 12. I stopped believing in you and the others. I didn't think it was true, but today I saw Sophie floating in the air. She was hugging something. I knew that imaginary friends couldn't pick up kids. I'm sure that Sophie isn't some super powered girl." I looked over to the kid in question staring at a butterfly on a flower. "She kept saying 'Bunny' then you gave her that egg. So I put two and two together. Walla! Here you are!" I laughed. "I still can't really grasp it. You're real like really real."

"GEN! SOPHIE!"

"I live at the cemetery. Burgess Cemetery if you ever want to visit." I said getting up and picking up Sophie. "Over here!" I replied to the calling voice. "We're coming back! Sophie and I just found some butterflies!" I made my way towards the bushes back to where the hunt was. "It was nice meeting you." I smiled and walked forward.

"Bye-Bye Bunny!" Sophie said waving.


"Where have you been?!" I was scolded when I came back. It wasn't a big of a deal the hunt wasn't over yet. Sophie and I were still going at it.

"Sorry, Olivia." I apologized. "Sophie and I were looking for eggs and we found this clearing there were all these butterflies and we got distracted. But on the bright side we found a lot of eggs?"

Sophie's basket was full. Full enough that I had to carry it. Bunny gave most of them to us, but once Sophie saw the butterflies she wasn't interested in hunting for the eggs anymore anyway. Sophie even started to play 'butterfly' by herself. I knew the game well. I'd taught it to Candy, Jack, and her.

Olivia sighed. "Just don't do it again."

"You could've called." I said holding up my cell phone.

"Gen! Look how many eggs I got!" Jamie came over with Mike. His basket was just as full as Sophie's.

"That's great kid." I turned to the family. "I got to get going. See you later!" I started to head towards home.

I took a small path home. It led past the pond that legend has it some teen drowned in many years ago, but his body was never found. Then it passed some abandoned bed, but when I got to where the bed should be there was nothing. "Huh." I said aloud. "Finally cleaned up I guess." I could see the gates of the cemetery I was almost home. It was time to steal a bit of my siblings eggs and eat them for myself.


A/N: She met Bunny! I wonder what will happen next! We're almost to the point where things from my other story will come into play. Mostly Christmas Adventure, so if you haven't read it than you should because of Ellie's appearance. It's not mandatory though. I'll be explaining who she is in the story and all that so do not worry!

Review!
