Chapter 70 - Ticks and Leeches
In the guest bedroom, Megalo was still looking down at the picture. He began to question why he put this picture above all other cares in life. It was something going off in his brain, wanting to come out. He wasn't sure what, but he eventually decided on asking me who Andre the Giant was, since it was his presence that caused this attraction. It was something about him that brought faint memories to him. It wasn't much, but it was something. He looked back at Adyna, who was still sleeping peacefully in her bed. Her calm nature brought thoughts of peace with the outside world, which made him feel special. He stood up from the bed, walking over to the front door.
Suddenly, the door burst open, shocking him. The other rabbits walked into the room, Starting with Giko, then Remi, then Karito, Ella, Barry, Matiro, then finally Osmos. "Wha- What's going on?", Megalo asked. "They found us, Magnum...", Matiro said to him. "Wha-What?!", Megalo worringly said. "Calm down, they're only here for me.", Barry reassured him. "Mark told us to stay in here until all the people in the front yard leave." Osmos looked over at Adyna, gasping as he saw her sleeping. "We have to get her up!", he shouted, running over to her. "Sorry, but that's a no-go.", Giko said. "She's used up all of her thinking power protecting us today, so she's probably regaining her energy."
"Ella, you have to do something!", Iremiya asked her. What... I'm not going to hurt anybody!, she thought back. "Well, I think we've all had enough of hurting people today.", Iremiya said in response. "Can't you do something about the cameras or something?", Karito asked. "Oooh! Nice thinking, princess!", Matiro said in amazement. I'll... I'll try..., Ella thought, closing her eyes. She tried focusing on the helicopter's cameras. She tried and tried again to find the right spot, but she eventually found it, and cracked the helicopter's camera. Got it!, she thought.
Meanwhile, in the front room, I dialed 911 while walking over to my jelly boyfriend, who was still sitting in the computer chair. "What do you mean there's a mob outside?!", he asked. "Look, stay in here and whatever you do, do not look out this doorway.", I told him. "Mark, why is there a mob outside?!", he asked me. As I placed the phone up to my ear, I replied, "They managed to take a picture of Barry, and now there's a lynch mob after him." My jelly boyfriend stood up. "Do they know about me yet?!", he asked. I closed the door, before hearing the other side talking to me.
"911, what's your emergency?", a woman asked me. "Yes, there's a couple hundred people on my property, and I need them gone, now.", I said, closing the door behind me. "Alright sir, the police have been notificated.", she said. "Thank you, thank you so much!", I said in relief. My jelly boyfriend stood there, watching as I quickly remedied the situation. "No problem sir. Have a good day!", she said to me. "You too, ma'am!", I replied, hanging up. "Are the police coming?!", my jelly boyfriend asked me. "Yeah, there will be a lot of them here, just stay in here and you'll have nothing to worry about.", I told him. He looked back over at the upload screen. "5 minutes to go.", he said.
Meanwhile, the bunnies were beginning to get heated. "You know, Smelly, this never would have happened if you came to us!", Matiro yelled. Osmos took a couple steps back, completely astounded by what he had just heard. "Excuse me?!", he asked. "Are you really suggesting that you would rather be with the scientists?!" Matiro rolled his eyes, before explaining, "At least it was comfortable! I was perfectly happy where I was! I didn't have to worry about people up my ass all the time until you came back into my life." Osmos yelled back, "It's always about you, isn't it, Smokey?!" Matiro flared his nostrils, little flames coming out. He began marching towards his brother, until Barry got in his way. "STOP, Matiro!", he yelled.
Eventually, the police showed up at the property, taking care of the crowd. They came and knocked my front door to come and talk to me. My jelly boyfriend was caught by surprise, but I looked over and told him, "It's okay, they just want to talk to me. Don't get out of this room, alright?" My jelly boyfriend nodded his head, before sitting back down in the chair. I opened the bedroom, closing it behind me as soon as I got out of the bedroom. I noticed that the bunnies were being a little loud in the guest bedroom, but I figured I could write it off. I walked over to the front door, and opened it.
There were two police officers standing in front of me, one a tall man, the other being an african-american woman. "Are you okay, sir?", she asked. "Oh yes! Thank you all so much!", I replied. "Hey, is there anything strange going on in here?", the man asked me. "Not that I'm aware of...", I said, rubbing my chin, pretending to think about something that happened. Then, from the guest bedroom, you could hear Matiro yelling, "ONE OF THESE DAYS, SMELLY!" I immediately looked up to see the police officers with weird looks on their faces. ''What on earth was that?", the female police officer asked me. "Uhh... that was just one of my roommates.", I replied. "Don't get too bent up in there, alright?", she asked me, laughing. "We- We wont! Thank you!", I said back. "Have a good day now", the tall man told me, walking away. "You too!", I said closing the door.
I walked back into my bedroom to see my jelly boyfriend looking over at me in the computer chair. "It's... It's up now...", he told me.
