Chapter 3
Plastic Man, though frozen, saw something behind Kite Man. "What's that?" He asked no one in particular.
The frozen hero saw the bunnies coming together and forming a different shape.
Just when Kite Man was about to pull the trigger, someone or something fast kicked the device away from him before getting rammed down. To both Woozy and Plastic Man's surprise, the one responsible was what looked like an anthropomorphic rabbit warrioress with her floppy ear ends curled in and small accessories.
"Whoa," Woozy said in shock. "Who is that?"
The rabbit warrior girl didn't respond. Instead, she quickly grabbed the device Kite Man used earlier, set it on reverse, and aimed at Plastic Man to get out of his frozen state.
Plastic Man let out a sigh of relief, shivering a little, to which Woozy quickly gave him a blanket. "Thanks, Woozy," he said before looking at the warrior rabbit. "And thank you...whomever you are."
A smile came to the rabbit girl, still not making a sound. Instead, she whistled to signal the group of bunnies still around to help warm up the still-chilly hero.
He was surprised, but grateful, feeling a lot better as the chills went away.
The Rabbit Girl then had her ears twitch. She heard Kite Man trying to escape again and brought Plastic Man's attention about it.
He looked and quickly moved, stretching his arms out and tying up Kite Man. "Not this time," he said. "I hope Bats arrives soon."
Woozy saw a familiar plane in the sky. "There he is!" He said.
The Rabbit Girl smirked, knowing Kite Man was done.
Batman hopped out of the plane and landed, arching an eyebrow at seeing the rabbit warrior construct. "Who's this?" He asked.
"Don't know, but she helped us take down Kite Man," Woozy said.
"Might want to cuff him, Bats. He's almost as slippery as me," Plastic Man said.
Knowing her work there was done, the Rabbit Warrior took her leave and decided to head back to Plastic Man's place. Something Woozy noticed.
"Hmm," he hummed, but decided to talk to Plastic Man about it later.
Batman tied up Kite Man and nodded. "I'll take him to the police station," he said. "You best get home to your wife and son, Plastic Man."
"Will do, Bats. Thanks again for the assistance," the stretchy hero said.
"Ugh! It's official...I hate rabbits as much as I hate O'Brian," Kite Man remarked, not amused.
Batman gave Plastic Man a confused look, to which the hero just shrugged and indicated that Kite Man was crazy, using the universal 'they're crazy' sign, which made Woozy barely hold back a giggle.
Just then, the bunny in Woozy's arms wiggled around as if saying it wants to go home or be free.
He smiled. "Let's get back, Plas," he said.
"You got it, Woozy," said the hero as he lifted Woozy onto his back and they quickly headed home.
Back at Plastic Man's home, the Rabbit Warrior girl construct made her way back inside to see the stretchy hero's wife asleep on an armchair with her baby awake while cooing at the new face. This made the Rabbit Warrior walk close to the infant until her smiling face was close enough to let the baby feel her soft her. Along with cuddling her furry cheeks next to his.
The baby giggled happily just as Plastic Man and Woozy entered and the hero smiled. "Okay, whoever that is, she's definitely an ally," he said. "Babies can tell if someone is good or not."
"Looks like he's become one of her fans," Woozy said, chuckling.
The Rabbit Warrior girl smiled at those words, gently nuzzling the baby's head, making him giggle happily.
It didn't take long for the rabbit in Woozy's arms to jump off and go inside the sleeping blonde teen's backpack to get something.
"Whatcha looking for, little one?" Woozy asked curiously.
The rabbit construct was trying to pull something from the bag but was having a hard time. Woozy decided to help the little bunny out by grabbing whatever object his friend wanted to share.
"Oh, wow...this feels heavy," Woozy stated, now using both hands to get the object he was pulling. "What's in here?"
Plastic Man noticed his partner near Lea's backpack and nearly panicked. "Woozy, no! You don't rummage around a teen girl's school bag!" he whispered out loud.
It didn't take long for Woozy to pull out the object where he tumbled backward to reveal a Blue Lantern Charger in his hands...with the bunny construct presenting the actual object to share in its mouth: a drawing book.
"She really is a Blue Lantern," the petite man said in surprise before seeing the page in the drawing book and his eyes widened as he saw it was a picture of the Rabbit Warrior girl standing before them. He turned it around so that Plastic Man and the construct could see. "Is this you?" He asked the construct.
She nodded, smiling and pointing to Lea. "She drew you?" Plastic Man asked in awe. "Wow, she's got real talent."
The Rabbit Warrior nodded again as if agreeing with Plastic Man's statement. She then noticed her form slowly start to fade. Same with the other construct rabbits.
"What's going on?" Woozy asked.
"Well, guess since the danger's gone, they're going back to where they came from," Plastic Man said. "Maybe they only come out when they are needed?"
Knowing this was goodbye, the tall Rabbit Warrioress and a bunch of other blue bunny constructs hugged Plastic Man and Woozy before disappearing back into Lea's ring.
Seeing all was peaceful now, Plastic Man had made sure Lea was tucked in snugly and he used some plywood to place over the hole in the wall, deciding to fix it in the morning. Woozy helped him brace the plywood firmly so that no one could get into the house without them knowing.
The hero scooped up his wife and the baby and turned to Woozy. "Spare room's open for you, Woozy," he said.
"Thanks, Plas," the petite man said as they all turned in for the night.
Before leaving, Plastic Man carefully took off the headset he left on the blonde teen from waking up by the commotion. Along with carrying his wife and child back to their own respective rooms.
Whew! Looks like everything is okay now.
