Chapter 60 - Family Get-Together
As I sat there in the car bound and gagged, I questioned why this had to happen to me. I was driving a car against my will, sitting next to a bunny who was reading my mind, with a serial killer behind me, with more rabbits all over the top and back of the car, heading towards my own house that also had 5-foot-tall bunnies in it. These bunnies had just completely demolished and burned down a whole university, and here I am, driving them to safety. I knew that these rabbits were just wanting to be at peace with the world, but why did I have to be the one to suffer this?!
I began to panic, squirming to try and get my jelly boyfriend off of me, yelling out muffled screams. Little did I know, the Bunny with goggles saw me, so she reached around my open driver's side window, punching me directly, knocking me out. "Oh... oh my...", the green bunny said in shock. "DAMN! I could see that from all the way back here!", the grey one shouted from the back of the car, against the wind. "Nice job, sis!", the one with glasses complimented. "Thanks everyone! Just because I'm handicapped doesn't mean that I can't use my fists well, haha!", the one in goggles told them.
When the car finally reached its destination, all the rabbits prepared for Barry and Ella's allowance into my house. As it turns out, the two bunnies who were on top of the car had fashioned shoes with magnets on the bottom from spare parts, allowing them to stand on top of the car. "That was the craziest joyride I've ever had! Hah ha!", the grey rabbit shouted as he jumped off the purple beast, whose hands had become difficult to move from holding onto the spoiler of the car. "Would you be quiet?! We're not entirely safe yet!", the green bunny said through his teeth.
Ella suddenly looked over to the front door. Barry... they're here!, she thought to her brother. "What?!", he said, looking out the front window. "I don't see them here..." Suddenly, he saw the garage door open for about 30 seconds, before mysteriously closing again. What the fuck?, he asked himself. Ella ran over to the front door, opening it. She moved aside, with no indication of why. "What are you doing?!", Barry yelled. Hush, my son! We need your help!, a voice in his head told him. It was an older, feminine voice. What the..., Barry couldn't help but think to himself.
Suddenly, a stench filled the living room. "Geez, what is that horrible smell?! It smells like someone puked on a sweaty guy!", Barry yelled, clutching his nose. Ella eventually closed the door. Immediately after she did, the rest of the bunnies revealed themselves, along with my jelly boyfriend carrying my passed out body. Barry sat down on the couch, wearing an amazed look on his face as his family revealed themselves to him. In the blink of an eye, the room was filled with colorful characters, many of which he hadn't seen in a very long time.
"M... Mom? Dad?!", Barry whispered, standing up. "We're back, son!", the green bunny shouted. Barry ran over to his old man, hugging him in a loving embrace. Wow... you're all here!, Ella thought. I thought it would just be mom and my dad... The grey bunny laughed, telling her, "Nope, we're all here alright! Don't you remember us, niece?!", as he walked over to her. Ella paused, looking into his eyes, being flooded by a flashback.
She saw herself in a cage, surrounded by other, normal bunnies. Above the cage were fluorescent lights, all placed within a grid. For some reason, she could understand the rest of the bunnies, even if they weren't speaking English. She remembered asking, "Why did my father have to be the one to end up like that!?", to the other rabbits. A grey rabbit replied, "Because he's really careless like that. Trust me, he's my brother, I've had to live with him my whole life." Hopping out from behind him was a smaller, beige rabbit, who told him, "Daddy, maybe it was an accident!" The larger of the two chuckled, before replying, "I doubt it!"
"Daughter, why don't you go over and say hi to your cousins?!", a white rabbit told her. "Okay, mom!", she said, turning to another batch of rabbits. As she hopped over to the other side of the cage, where her relatives were, she could count 4 of them. One was bright blue, while the others were either brown or light-grey. "Oh, hello, cousin!", one of the grey ones shouted to her.
Ella stood there by the front door, while being shaken by her uncle. "Snap out of it! Geez, bro, you raised some interesting kids!", he shouted over his shoulder. The green rabbit turned his head towards his brother while hugging Barry. "Hey! Don't talk about my kids like that!", he yelled. Un... Uncle...?, Ella sowly thought to the person shaking her. He looked over at his niece, releasing his grip. You're... you're my uncle... Ella looked over to the smaller, beige rabbit. And you're... you're my cousin..
Meanwhile, my jelly boyfriend started to snap out of hypnosis, freeing my passed out body from himself. Several of the bunnies turned to him, watching in amazement as he formed into a human-like form. "What... what happened?!", he asked everyone. He looked down at me, his eyes widening as he realized I had been passed out. "Oh my god! Mark?! Mark!? Get up, Mark!", he yelled as he knelt down and shook my body. Barry and Ella looked over at us, causing the others to do so. "Don't worry about it, bud", the grey one told him. My jelly boyfriend looked up, dropping his jaw at all the other bunnies that had suddenly appeared.
"Look... we have some explaining to do...", Barry told my jelly boyfriend.
