As Part 5 drew to a close, new characters entered the fray, and the anti-leporine resistance seemed to have encountered a cabal of Sith Lords. Or something. It’s all terribly hard to swallow, um, follow.
Patience, Please
This site is under reconstruction and will look strange for a while. We regret the inconvenience.
((Okay, I’m lost. Again. We’re rescuing RK, right? Or something inside the bunny ship? I might as well just read up…))
((First post?))
((1- Wow, you’re WAY behind. I would re-read most of that thread, there’s some more key stuff. I’m too tired to summarize right now, sorry!))
((Well, right now we’re somewhere, bunnies are attacking us, and we have enlisted more people to help us. :] ))
Suddenly, the door slammed open. The man stepped in. I had a full view of him for the first time. He had a beefy face with a stubble, and where he wasn’t wearing a black robe, he had tatoos. He roughly grabbed Leafygreen by her hair, and carried her out. “Tootles,” she said, wearing a sad little grin. I cried after her, but the man had already locked the door. I pounded my fists against it, tears streaming down my face. I started banging my head against the door, and with each thud, I moaned “Leafy…” Then, a flood of thoughts came back to me. I remembered the Marianas Trench base, the blue rinse failing to go off, everyone in the Resistence, and the time that Leafy had saved me. So, with a new determination, I kicked through the door and ran out into the hallway.
((4 – Is it possible for a door to slam open? Hm, another mystery to ponder…
))
((5- I needed a blast so forceful that it almost knocked the door off its hinges, but not so much. It hit the wall, lets just say that.))
((6 – Ah, okay. Then if it was off its hinges, why do you have a problem getting out?))
((7- It just hit the wall! It was never blasted off its hinges! He opened the door forcefully! Etc. etc.!
I shape-shifted into a large hawk, grabbing a HPB’s head with my talons and droping him on the ground with a sickly cracking sound.
((Yes! New thread! HOORAY! *was lost on last thread*))
SERAFINA:
To any observer, it appeared I was having fun, which I was! AvalonGirl came practically FLYING by, holding her lightsword. She quickly yelled “Doing your floor routine? Niiice!” and somersaulted over me.
AVALONGIRL:
I flew past the bunnies, slashing gracefully. Then I felt something was wrong, something was very wrong…
Then everything went black.
((( I was partially lost too)))
((8 – Sheesh!))
I whirled around to see RK shape-shift into a hawk. I was mildly surprised, but not so much, as I used the Force on twenty more bunnies, turning them to the good side. I was astonished at the effects: they immediately turned around and started fighting the other HPBs. I did it on ten more.
I followed the sound of the man’s footsteps. Suddenly, I halted in front of the next corrider. Bunnies,humans I didn’t know, and the Restistence made a churning ocean of chaos. The man was holding Leafy by her hair high above his head, wading through the fight. I somersaulted over the battle and landed on the man’s back. I punched and pummeled him, using all of my strength. The man didn’t seem to notice my efforts. I yelled in frustration. The man turned around and noticed me, which gave Leafy enough time to kick him below the belt. He howled in pain and dropped Leafy. I got hold of her arm and ran away. When the man finally noticed she was gone, we had already disappeared from his sight.
as armada and I were being dragged to the dungeon, the red eyed thing commanded the others to stop, and said, “I would like you to see something that noone of your speesheese has ever seeeen beforeee. it tapped in a serise of jabs on a seemingly blank wall and a panel slid back revealing, a huge black BRAIN with red glowy bits and hot colored spots. “this is my brain! whan it grew too large to fit in my head, I prefromed surgery on myself, as noone else would ever understand how. however, it left me weak, so I had to take servents. the red you see is bits of every en’s brain, all tied to mine. this is how I send commands. recently, I was drawn to a new race, what you call HPBs. they seemed worthy minions to wipe out your pittiful resistance, but they were stronger than I had expected and had to be bribed. I gave them wepons and en troops to fight their war, and soon they will help he with mind! the war against everything good and orderly in the universe!” it, proudly swept an arm towards the brain and I had to turn away for grossness. I could hear but not see armada recthing quetly behind me. “I am only saying this so you will waste away in agony knowing how to stop me, without being able to do so” then the thing did a very high pitched, but otherwise cliche evil villlan laughonly to have it cut short by me saying, “if that si your brain out there, what’s in your head? sludge? there has to be SOMETHING or it would cave in. ” “you INSOLENT human!!! take them away NOW!!!”
Tokyo yelped out in suprise as a heli-bunny grabbed her from behind. I flew after her, but was shot in my wing and then picked up by another Heli bunny that followed the other one.
((sorry that was really long. and armada, if you disagree with any part (exept the giant brain pleeese) feel free to change it. like the giant brain dosnt HAVE to be it’s))
After another ten more, I decided to do it on the helibunnies. I focused on the two carrying RK and her friend and forced the bunnies to drop them. They did, and RK and her friend promptly squashed two small bunnies.
I surveyed the scene. Forty-two bunnies were working for us, which was surely a good sign.
SERAFINA:
I topped off my routine with a cartwheel and backflip, taking out more bunnies. That was when I noticed…
“Where’s AvalonGirl?!” I screamed frantically.
“Aggie, we need to find a way out of here.” ZVX’s tone frightened me a little, as if he knew what was going to happen if we didn’t get out now. “See if you can stand on my shouldes and look in that tunnel for a ladder.” I hoisted myself up on his shoulders. For my age, I was incredibly light.
“I see a couple of ledges that, if we were careful, we could jump onto”, I said.
“Try it”, ZVX urged me. I summoned all of my strength and was bout to jump, when suddenly there was grinding noise and a sheet of heavy metal slid over the mouth of the tunnel. Now everything was not only completely dark, but my claustraphobia was beginning to kick in.
Baylee looked around and used the force on a few more bunnies. She than forced a group of bunnies hard against the wall, which collapsed and fell on top of them. She looked at the rest of the bunnies, more than half were on their side. Soon enough, the bunnies reduced in numbers faster and faster. But more bunnies were coming.
A giant bunny seemed to be headed straight for Leafy and I, so we ran into a small room. We skidded on a steel circle, and stopped. We were trapped. I heard a nasal voice snigger, and the steel gave way, and we fell. ((Sorry Aggie, I couldn’t help it.
))
I turned, having un-bunnified all of the bunnies. There was nobody to fight.
Until more streamed in.
“Argh!” Baylee said in frustration as more bunnies came. “Ok Kokonilly! Let’s both use the force, as powerful as we can, to turn all the ones in this room. I hope this works.”
” Get the yellow eyed one,” a bunny hissed. Yellow eyed one, that would be me. Wait ,why would they want me?
As I was pondering this question I felt something slam against the back of my head. Everything went dark.
((( Please no one rescue me until I get back .I will be gone for a week starting later tommorow))) ((( and yes I have yellow eyes in BA)))
I was hyperventilating, my head in my hands, when suddenly there was a scream from the sky and someone landed flat on top of me with an OOMPH! I prepared myself for the worst, springing to my feet, blaster at the ready. “Who’s there?” I yelled, frightenedd. Next to me, I could sense that ZVX was afraid too.
“Don’t shoot!” cried a timid voice from in front of me. My hyperventilating took a pause. “Leafy?” I asked. “The very same”, the voice replied. “Please don’t shoot our heads off”, said someone else. “ZINC?” said ZVX incredulously. “Oh no, not you guys too!”
“Okay.” I closed my eyes and melded my power with Baylee’s. Instantly, all of the bunnies attacked the dementor-things and the new bunnies. “All right!” I high-fived Baylee.
“Yep, us two too.” I sighed.
“Say…do any of you have a sponge?” I heard Leafy’s voice murmer excitedly.
“Well,” I turned to where ZVX and Aggie’s voices came from, and said in what would have been a casual manner, except WE WERE STUCK AT THE BOTTOM OF DEEP DARK PIT!!! “Her insanity has reached a whole new level.”
Baylee gave a whoop of joy as the bunnies turn to the light side. “So, I guess we can try and sneak out while they fight,” she told Kokonilly, “I think we should try and find Zinc, Aggie, ZVX and Leafy, I thought I herd them yelling.”
I looked around and spotted a small room. There were screams issuing from the floor.
“Let’s go check it out!” Baylee walked into the room unfazed by the screaming.
“It’s a trap.” I started panicking. “It’s a trap.”
Then we fell through.
“Slick. We’re stuck at the bottom of a pit with a horde of vicious bunnies. Wonderful.” I said, voice dripping sarcasm. “And there’s that delightful William; do you think he’s come to say ‘oh, let me get some tea and–”
“ZVX, please shut up about that.” Came a rather un-encouraging voice out of the gloom. Leafygreen. I stared around, trying to pinpoint her position. It seemed she was to my left; with Zinc. Aggie stood somewhere nearby, though I didn’t know where.
“OK. I tend to get sarcastic when we’re in a bad situation. Let’s see if we get any com. card reception in here.” I looked at the small card. Miraculously, two small icons indicated a small amount of communication power. I put in the number for Baylee: *094𴞒*.
No answer.
“Cake.”
“Yup.”
“Cake it again.”
“Yup.”
“Dang.”
“She’s either occupied with something, or she’s…”
Agrrrfishi glared at me in the light of the com. card. “Don’t even say it, ZVX. She can’t be dead.”
“Well, let’s see if we can get out of here.”
I looked around. Nothing, except the small cluster of us standing in the dark.
I felt a rush of air. Then I heard a THUD next to me, and I instinctively pulled out my blaster. “Who’s there?” Leafy called out. “Me and her!” a voice called out. “Define me.” ZVX said. “Me as in Baylee!” a high pitched voice said. “And her is Kokonilly!” “Kokonilly! Baylee! Not you two too!” Aggie sighed.
“Let’s see… ZVX is here… Aggie as well… Zinc… Leafygreen… And don’t forget Baylee and me.”
“How can you see us? It’s pitch-black here.” Aggie looked surprised.
I shrugged. “Maybe I have night vision.”
ZVX sighed. “This isn’t getting us anywhere. We need to find a way out.”
AVALONGIRL:
I groaned, rubbing my head, and made my way over to where I heard Leafy asking for a sponge. Then I tripped, screamed, and fell on Baylee!
SERAFINA:
I was running away, and fell down a hole, and grabbed ZVX’s ankle!
I heard Baylee scream, and ZVX yell. “It’s AvalonGirl and Serafina!” I heard AvalonGirl’s voice say. “Oh no, not you guys!” Aggie said. I heard her smack her forehead. “Aren’t you glad to see us?” I heard a confused Serafina ask.
“Oh, no, not you guys!” I groaned. Then, I spotted a bit of light. I started walking toward it.
“Don’t go into the light, Kokonilly!” Agrrrfishi snickered. I shot her a look and grinned. “I think this is the way out, guys!” I pointed.
“No really–don’t go towards the light–it’ll kill you–” I protested, pointing at the faint glimmer.
“And why do you suggest that?” Said Kokonilly irritably. “It’s fine.”
I whipped out my blaster. “It’s a trap. We’re more or less all here, William will now destroy us all. We need to get out of here, light or not. William is clever, very clever, smart enough to have devised a trap such as this in the middle of a battlefield.”
“It’s not a trap, ZVX. You’re so pessimistic”
Generally I wouldn’t have stood for being called pessimistic, something that, despite my other faults, was something I definitely wasn’t.
“I can’t let you walk into a trap. Rule B of my position states that, I quote, ‘An elevated officer may not, on any circumstances, allow a subordinate officer to enter an unknown area, particularly if the area is suspect of enemy activity.’ That’s why. It would crash my conscience to let you walk into a trap or setup unprepared.”
Kokonilly rolled her eyes. “Yeah right. Since when were you ‘elevated officer’?”
I raised my eyebrows. ” ‘Elevated officer’ is the formal description; I’m effectively, however, a part-time commander, with the number of messes that I’ve gotten you out of.”
“I think we should wrap this argument up.” Said Aggie. “ZVX, you may be a commander, but you don’t have direct command over Kokonilly. She’s a captain, so you can’t forbid her to walk up to the light.”
I steepled my fingers. “True, but I don’t think that matters now, Aggie. If one of our friends’ life could be at stake, I think I have every right to advise her not to enter a trap.”
“You’re right…” hissed the voice from above our heads. ‘You should have been careful…Because now, the ones you left behind are going to be your SACRIFICE…” From the ceiling burst bright white light, blinding me for a moment. When I could finally adapt to the light, I could see everyone around me: ZVX, Leafy, Zinc, Baylee, Kokonilly, AvalonGirl and Serafina. We were in a completely empty room except for d small door and a window that appeared to be covered by some sort of metal shield, which was slowly lifting away from the window frame. I knew I didn’t want to see what was coming, but I couldn’t draw my eyes away from the slowly moving panel of metal. The cover opened fully, and behind a thick layer of glass I could see five figures, all chained to a wall and screaming bloody murder, even thoguh we couldn’t hear it. Three litlle girls and two boys, all held against their will and all of their eyes saying one thing: HELP.
I stared without being able to speak. “You left them ALONE?!?” I screeched.
“I…I…” stuttered Kokonilly and Baylee. But the voice of William interrupted again.
“You have your choice, pathetic anti-lagomorphs. Your friends…or your freedom.” The door by the window was slowly swinging open. “This door will close in approximately thrity seconds, enough time for all of you to escape, but my prisoners will die a painful death. As the door opened, a sickly green gas was beginning to fill the tank-like cage in which Aaron, Justin, Emmy, Lucy and Stassi were all clearly yelling their head off, without any way to move at all. I could see Stassi’s eyelids beginning to droop already.
“What is this, a twisted remake of Saw or something?” cried ZVX, who could not stop switching his eyes between the tank and the door, which was beginning to shut again. I could only focus on Aaron, who was looking at me as if yto say, “You’re going to make the right choice, aren’t you?” I couldn’t think, I could hardly even breathe. I saw Stassi and Emmy go completely limp, and then Aaron’s deep grey eyes shut.
“NO!” I screamed, and, as fast as I could, took a great running start and crashed through the thick layer of glass. Poison began to seep out of the tank and into the room as I hurriedly pulled a spike of glass from my thigh and tried to revive our friends.
((Can someone take over my character until I get caught up?))
“Oh, my God.” I almost started crying. “I thought they were fine! The twins are barely younger than I! But what – how -” Baylee shot a look at me saying We can do this. My eyes widened, understanding her plan, and all heck broke loose.
I smashed the window using the Force while Baylee strained to hold the door open. I ran into the room, choking and coughing, dragging along Agrrrifshi. I picked up Stassi and yelled “Go! GO!” to the others. They nodded. Everyone bolted for the door and I saw a lightsaber slash at William as his eyes nearly popped out of his head.
We almost didn’t make it.
But we did.
((Conflicting plots! I’ll try and fix it.))
I saw Kokonilly cleanly blast away the rest of the window as I hurriedly concentrated my mind upon breaking every chain binding our friends. Using all of my brain power, I summoned a force that channeled through my mind. Instantly, every chain shattered into powder. I struggled to hold Aaron up as Kokonilly grabbed up the unconscious Stassi and slung her over her shoulder. “Hurry! We have to go!” yelled ZVX. The poison was already flooding into the room, and everyone looked quite dizzy as green gas engulfed them. Everyone was running under the door. Zinc guided each twin over to AvalonGirl and Serafina, who both rushed one under the nearly shut door, then she followed with leafy.
“I can’t hold it much longer!” screamed Baylee, who was sweating from the strain of grasping the door and pushing it upwards, it was one of those doors that closes down.
“We’re coming!” Kokonilly yelled back. She rushed to the door and gently shoved Stassi under. Then, she proceeded to come back for Justin. Meanwhile, I was having trouble lifting Aaron. “Come on, come on!” I cried in frustration. “Wake up, you have to move with me!” Aaron did no such thing, noly laid like a rag doll across my shoulder. I summoned all of my strength and picked him up, straining under his weight. I ran as fast as I could to the door, feeling nauseous. I shoved Aaron unceremonioulsy under the closing door and slipped under after him, Kokonilly following and Baylee squeesing under. Her foot only barely missed being chopped off. As the door closed with a shuddering BANG, everything got very dark, and very quiet.
((Hm, I thought Baylee was straining with the MENTAL force of holding the door open, but whatever.))
“Where… are we?” I squeaked.
Agrrrfishi tried to look brave. “Well, we’re better off than we were before, at least.”
((41- Ehh. tomatoes, tomahtoes. Whatever works.))
“Where…are we?” sqeaked Kokonilly. Everything was completely dark, as before. You would think the bunnies would be smart enough to install a lighting system or something. I figured that it couln’t be too bad. “Well, we’re better off than where we were before, at least”, I said, trying to pluck some courage.
“No kidding”, said ZVX, whom I assumed was somewhere nearby.
I knelt down on the ground, groping for any of the unconscious survivors. Instead, my finers met a wet, semi-thick substance that shrouded the floor. It was a bit hard, as though it had been there for a while.
“What’s this stuff on the floor?” asked Leafy, who I could hear next to me. She appeared to be crouching down, too.
“I don’t know”, I replied. I lifted a bit to my nose. “It seems like…” I sniffed it, and got a disgusting metallic smell that I knew instantly.”Blood!” I shrieked, and flung the substance back to the ground, rubbing it off on my pants.
“Gross!” exclaimed Zinc. I could picture her lifting a leg to get away from the stuff that was surrounding all of us on the ground. I leaned over, my hands reaching around until I founf the fabric of someone’s shirt. “Aaron?” I muttered.
“No, Justin”, a strained voice replied. “Your sleeping prince is still out cold.”
“Oh, shut up”, I said irritably. Over in another corner, I could hear Baylee trying to revive Stassi, who didn’t seem to be breathing. ‘Man, that kid faints a lot’, I though to myslef, as I hurriedly searched the ground for the other three.
I also tried to help Stassi. I gave her an injection of something that was known to negate the effects of the gas. Instantly she looked better.
“Here. I think I might have something that can fix our darkness problem…yes!” From my suit I pulled a small collapsable flashlight that ran on batteries, something that you couln’t find very often. “It’s only going to last us a little while, but it should give us enough time to find a way out of here and into the main control room.” I shone the light around the small space. I could see everyone either huddled close to the wall or trying to awaken someone on the floor. I shined the light downward. Aaron’s face looked eerie with the light casting strange shadows on his prominent cheekbones. “Can I borrow that syringe?” I asked Kokonilly. She silently handed it over, distracted by helping the wobbly Stassi get to her feet. I slid up the sleeve of Aaron’s shirt and pushed the needle into a more visible vein. The antidote-like substance went from the needle into his arm, and his eyes popped open. I handed the needle on to Baylee, so that she would be able to revive Emmy. “Are you all right? Can you hear me?” I asked quietly to Aaron.
“Fine”, he muttered, raising a hand to his forehead. “Man, that was weird. One minute we’re standing there with everyone, we turn around, and nobody’s there. Then, these little fuzzy pink bunnies tied us up and carried us down into some sort of area with a bunch of video cameras and stuff, and put us in that dumb room. Then, you all came along.”
“Great”, I replied. “Can you get up? We have to kepp moving.”
“Yeah…” he said. I reached a hand out to him, and he took it, climbing to his feet as wobbily as Stassi had done. Now that everyone was ready to move, I shined the flashlight around the room, noticing a square-looking door and a green button close by. “ZVX, see that button there?” I asked.
“Way ahead of you”, he replied, and pressed the button. The square door slid upward.
I was trying to refuse the temptation of just feeding from the blood on the floor. I finally suceeded in pinching my nose shut and looking at the open door. Wait- open door? I rushed through so I wouldn’t gross everyone out.
An open door? I perked up. I checked to make sure I had everything and dashed out. After liberally applying Tide to Go on everyone’s clothes who sat/crouched down, I surveyed our surroundings.
We seemed to be in a very large air vent. At the end of the tunnel, there was an open door. I could see the outside. I put one foot forward and felt the tile beneath my foot indent. I put my foot back very fast. A sword came down from the ceiling and struck the floor where my foot had been seconds ago. “And that,” I said with a weak grin on my face, “Is what comes out of watching too many Indiana Jones movies.”
((16-That’s okay. It works pretty well, actually. Now all we need to do is escape. So let’s.)) “Well, this is just great,” I said, crouched in the cage that the red-eyed thing had called a holding cell. “We have the answer to everything right in front of us, and we’re going to die! That thing is definitely succeeding in making us miserable.” Earthgirl nodded. And I think that the ‘die’ part is about to happen.” “What do you mean?” She pointed to a hatch in the wall which was slowly opening. Green gas was pouring out of it. “Oh, cake. Hold your breath!” We did, but it was pointless. The gas wasn’t going to go away. I gave up and breathed in, immediately feeling dizzy. “Hey, guys!” I jerked upwards, feeling like I was about to pass out, which I was. “What was that?” “I don’t know. It didn’t sound like anyone we know,” Earthgirl gasped. “Hey!” A figure came into view. It definitely wasn’t anyone we knew. “Who are you?” I choked. The person shook their head. “Let’s get out of here first.” They took a lockpick out of one of their pockets and started fiddling with the lock. They seemed unaffected by the gas. “For Koko’s sake, hurry up!” I said, fighting to stay conscious. The lock pinged, and the cage popped open. Earthgirl and I scrambled out. “Let’s get out of here!” the person shouted. We did, stumbling out of the room and into the relatively fresh air. I took gigantic breaths feeling my strength slowly coming back. When i felt back to normal, I took a close look at the person who had just saved our lives. She was a girl, skinny but tough looking. I smiled at her. “Thanks for that. Who are you? ” She smiled back, and I realised she was a vampire. But so what? “I’m Juliet. I’ve just joined the Resistance. Come on, let’s go take care of those cloaky things!” ((Yay! I have succeeded in reintroducing both of my characters in one post! All right!))
Baylee took a few shuddering breaths, went over to Emmy with the syringe. She slowly, but carefully pushed the needle. “Do you feel better?” Baylee asked her. Emmy nodded. “Ok, than. I think they found something, can you try to stand up?” Emmy stood, wincing, but she got up. They got through the door.
“Wait, what happened to the other captives?” Baylee said worriedly.
“They hid. I’m pretty sure they got into a room and hid. It was the last one in the hallway.” Said Justin.
“We have to find them,”
“Well, your in luck,” she heard ZVX say, “That’s on our way to the control room.” Baylee gave a sigh of relief.
“I hope the little boy is ok. He had looked pretty awful when we saw him.”
“We’re in… an air duct?” I scratched my head. “Big air duct for small bunnies.”
I continued through the air vent after Zinc, shining the light forwards as we crawled on. Aaron proceeded to follow after me, then Jutin, then Baylee, then Emmy, Lucy, Stassi, Kokonilly, AvalonGirl, Serafina, and Leafygreen heading up the back, her lightsaber at the ready just in case of a surprise attack. I heard a yelp and saw Zinc pull her foot back into the vent as a sword swung down, trying to cut her foot off. Then, making sure that there wre no other defence mechanisms, she hopped out of the vent, falling to the floor that was about five feet beneath us. She proceeded to help me down (I had aquired a certain fear of heights because of my last encounter with the hundred-foot ledge back on our ship), and did the same for Aaron, who helped Justin and so on. We were all concealed on both sides by a wall, and I could see the corridor right in front of me, unguarded by any bunnies.
I declined to be assisted, instead jumping down and landing lightly on my feet. I unsheathed my lightsaber.
((Not to interrupt, but could someone tell me exactly how this works? I’d like to join in the
massacring. If that’s even a word. *looks it up* It is!! 
))
((53 – You write stuff, not just *does this* *does that*. You WRITE stuff. Do you want me to write you in or do you want to write yourself in?))
I peered around the corner tentatively, holding my blaster at the ready. Leafy scanned the ceiling, her eyes turning a bright green as she searched for any sensors. “Look!” she hissed, pointing to a camera above us. I pointed straight down, right at my head. I blasted it into powder, but it was already too late. An alarm was going off, and I could hear the thump-thump-thump of bunny feet somewhere in the near distance.
“Quick!” yelled ZVX. “This way!” we ran down a corridor and found a floor map. “The control room appears to be this way”, Serafina pointed out. “And we left the captives here.” She pointed to another spot on the way to the control room.
“Left, left, right, right, left, pick up captives, right, left, right”, recited Lucy. “Seems simple enough.”
“What, do you have a photographic memory or something?” asked Zinc sarcastically, looking bewildered.
“Something along those lines, yeah”, replied the unfazed tween, looking nunplused.
((55 – Unfazed and nonplussed are antonyms, I think.))
“Come on, guys, we haven’t got all day.” I was unfazed by the new discovery. I had met a lot of other people with unusual gifts before. I turned to Lucy. “What did you say it was? I think you said something like left, left, right, right, left, pick up captives, right, left, left.”
“Close. It’s actually right at the end instead of left.”
“C’mon, let’s go.” I motioned us to move and pressed my finger to my lips. “Shh. There may be spies.” The other nodded and we moved quickly.”
((55- leafygreen isn’t a vampire. But it would be cool if her eyes changed colors randomly.)) “Everyone STOP!” I whispered. In front of my foot was a barely visible thread. I looked up. Another really thin thread was at eye level. I tentatively stuck a finger out and touched the high one, ready to jump back or duck at any notice. The thread stuck to my finger, and started to wrap itself around my finger. I gave a scream so high pitched you could barely hear it.
“Exactly…” I cocked my blaster. “Any flashes of pink, shoot to stun, not kill. A hostage could be valuable.” We crept along.
“We’re in luck,” indicated Justin from behind. “There’s your control room.”
I looked ahead. There it was, an unnatural looking room full of controls and computers. We walked in. I surveyed the controls, then drew my lightsaber and pointed to a button labeled “Self Destruct.”
“Guys, all we have to do is press that button, get in the pod, and we’re laughing.”
“Hold up. Why’s there a ‘Self-Destruct’ button in the first place? That seems awfully reckless.” I pointed at a roll of duct tape and a Sharpie. “Obviously, it’s an alert button and they wrote over it.”
((Umm…Earthgirl? You there? Do you want to join, Syllabub, or were you just asking?))
Baylee slowly went over to the room where the captives were. “Are you guys alright?” She asked the small group. “Is the boy ok?” The boy’s mom was obviously in distress. “All of a sudden he just walked off like he was in a trance, It was horrible! His eyes were bright pink, very bright!” Baylee turned worried. “Will he live? Where is he?” The boy’s mom asked. Baylee answered with the truth,
“We really don’t know ma’am, but we will try hard to find him, and bring him back. Which way did he go?” Baylee wrote everything done while the woman talked and nodded, every once in a while saying things like “Mhm,” and “Yes,”, soon she had it all down. “Ma’am, your boy has been, hypnotized by the bunny/aliens. We will try our hardest to help him. But he might not make it. We have special,” she paused for a moment trying to think of the right word, “doctors –if you will– that specialize in un-hypnotizing people who have been, well, hypnotized. My point is, we will try, he might not make it. If he does, we will bring him directly to you.” Baylee stopped talking, the woman stared at her, and she started to cry. “Miss! Please don’t cry! We will try our hardest!” That seemed to calm her down a bit, but she was still sniffling a bit. The boy’s father, in a corner, was looking depressed, anxious, and very, very worried.
((Oh, heck. Forget my thread thing.)) “Well, then, there must be a real self- destruct button somewhere on this bloody panel.” I said.
“Are you sure about that? Only a complete fool would install a ‘self-destruct’ button on an evil fortress.” I started walking toward Baylee. “What happened?”
She gestured sadly to a sobbing woman and a grim-looking man. “Their little boy… went that way. Hot-pink eyes.”
“We have to find him!” I ran back to everyone else. “Baylee and I have to find a little boy with bright pink eyes. kthxbye” We took off, ignoring their shouts.
“There was a self destruct button on Groundhog’s lab. Why not here?!” I yelledat Kokonilly’s retreating figure.
“You’re forgetting something: it wasn’t the bunnies that built the ship.”
AVALONGIRL:
I started running after Kokonilly and Baylee, and I was FAST!
SERAFINA:
“There was?” I asked Zinc. “I never knew that!”
64-((Leafygreen the squished?! ROFL!))
((66- I’m mad at her!)) I was answering Serafina when suddenly, people in black robes burst in. “There they are!” the leader shouted.
We turned a corner and heard footsteps behind us. I froze. Baylee looked at me, eyes wide. Then, Avalongirl nearly ran me over. I hissed, “Quiet! I think the others are in danger. We need to HURRY getting the kid, and we need to cure him… Then, we need to find the others and FAST!” It sounded quite complicated when you thought about it, but the other two nodded. I realized with a pang that I was in charge here. ((Can I be in charge here? I’m pretty sure I’m older than both of you. Please?
))
68-((You’re in charge. AvalonGirl’s only 15, and I’m not even THAT old…))
SERAFINA:
“Out of the way, guys!” I screamed loudly, doing my floor routine, somehow avoiding the blaster shots coming my way.
BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM was the sound of them hitting the floor, and I knocked out the en who was trying to stop me, and continued with my floor routine…
“Everyone, come with me. We’re trying to cut off all possible attack routes for the bunnies. Quick!” I shouted, as the whole shuttle rattled with a bang that reverberated all through it.
“RUN!”
((69 – Ah, well in this thing I’m 12. So I’m younger than you. But whatever. Details, details.
))
“C’mon, guys.” I pulled out two hot-pink bunny suits and a collapsible Segway out of my pockets and some handcuffs. Noticing their looks, I said “What? We’re going to pull a Han Solo. I have large pockets.” I handed a suit to Beat and we slipped them over our outfits. Then, I motioned for Avalongoel to go on the Segway. She climbed on and we handcuffed her.
((There Leafy isn’t squished anymore! She’s squishy!)) One of them grabbed Leafygreen and held a dagger to her throat. “Shoot and she dies.” one of them said.
((71- Yup. And in this thing I’m fourteen, so I think this command is short-lived.
))
((71- Leafy and I are both thirteen in this. Heh, we’re around eleven in real life. Heh.))
74, 73-((Well, I’m 10 in real life, so would you think that there would be a 10-year-old in BA? NO! And Kokonilly, I thought you said you were an adult in BA…))
((75 – Actually, there are two ten-year-olds in BA… the twins, you may remember… At any rate, I never said that. Bookworm implied it earlier, but I never confirmed it.))
((I’m 10 in BA
Never thought about changing the age of my character… So yeah, Baylee’s 10.))
We both took one hand of AvalonGirl and walked on. “Remember, your captured, try and look sad or beat up or something,” I whispered in her ear.
Avalongirl assumed an expression that ordinarily I would have cracked up at the sight of, but she shot me a look. So I shut up.
((54-ummmm, maybe, but I might need a little more explination first. Maybe on a different thread so I don’t clog up this one with my questions?))
((79 – Hm, it’s kinda hard to explain. We’re in a bunny ship in two separate groups, fighting the bunnies. Someone else can tell you about Juliet, Stassi and Aaron and the others.))
((79- Juliet is a vampire whose body william used to try and kill us, but we got him out of her and now she’s good.Aaron, Justin, Emmy, Lucy and Stassi are captives I rescued earlier. *whispers* I like Aaron. *un-whispers* Aaron is sixteen (like me), Justin is thirteen, Emmy and Lucy are ten, and Stassi is six. They’re helping us and they’re going to escape with us.))
ZVX and I stood over the button, not daring to belive that more black robed figures were attacking. Then, I whispered to everyone in a low hiss,”Act like you’re hypnotized!”. Everyone stood stock still at once. We didn’t dare look at one another.
“You there! Turn around, show yourselves!” commanded the leader of the black robes, who looked bigger and stronger than the rest of them. We all turned around.
“What-is-your-command-sir?” I said in a false monotone.
“Um, um, I…nothing”, said the bewildered officer. “I guess we made a mistake…” Then, without warning, one of the black robes stalked forward and stared straight into Leafy’s green eyes. “Hey! This one’s a fake!” he yelled angrily. “Take her to the torture room!” The guards immediately walked forward and grabbed a shocked and struggling Leafygreen, carrying her out of the room. I saw Zinc looking stressed. Then…
“STEP AWAY FROM MY FRIEND, YOU TRAITOROUS WUNG DROPPINGS!”,. she cscreamed, pulled out her lightsaber, and started smashing away at the black robes. ZVX and I pulled out our blasters, shooting any target we could find. I saw Emmy, Lucy and Stassi sneak into a safe place under the control panel. Then, I noticed a black robe radioing for help. “Hey!” I shouted, and shot the radio out of his hand. He screamed and fell down. But it was already too late. I could hear the stamping boots of reinforcements.
“What are we going to do?” yelled Justin, who flipped a zombie onto a metal table.
(( Juliet, Stassi, Justin, Aaron, and Lucy were characters that Aggie brought in. She and Aaron seem to be having a romantic relationship (that’s a first on BA!) in the middle of the fighting. Justin could be suspect of bunny activities, judging by his actions, but I’ll leave that to Agrrrfishi.))
((Yeah, it’s a little confusing. It’s weird having characters that nobody specific is controlling. Of course, I kind of started that idea, but I didn’t really mean to make it a trend. And Syllabub, I’m probably too new to have authority, but it would be great if you joined. I’m having trouble holding up my part of the story with only one other person, and I think Earthgirl probably feels the same way, though I don’t know. Help would definitely be appreciated.))
78-((*cracks up* I could do that SO well…))
(982-Actually, that’s a reallly good idea. We should build that up.))
Justin’s expression was one of both terror and amusment as he began flipping zombies. I saw Aaron draw a lightsaber and slash wildly at an approching robe. Twenty or so more robes appeared to be approaching, by the sound of boots from the corridor.I took the jump and blast approch, then made a flying leap into the air. I caught one foot around a pipe, and wrapped my other foot around that pipe as well. I dangled from the ceiling, and as a black robe jumped, I blasted him. Now I had a bird’s eye fighting stance, and these humans didn’t seem to have the jumping capacity that the bunnies did. I saw a robe advancing toward the place where Emmy, Lucy and Stassi hid, trembling. He had obviously spotted them. I leapt down from the ceiling in a tailspin, landing feet apart right in front of the black robe.
“All right, traitor”, I said, narrowing my eyes. “Prepare to die.”
((81- Leafygreen’s eyes change either to her mood or her enviroment. I was never very partial to lightsabers myself, but….))
BA
I roared in frustration. I shoved aside people in black robes, heading for the person who was holding Leafy. I swiftly cut off his head, and blood poured down the neck. The decapitated head rolled on the floor. Leafy seemed in a very cheerful mood, and stepped over her old captor’s dead body to figth the rest of the scum.
((Okay, fine. I’m not waiting for Earthgirl anymore. Please, Syllabub? Or someone?))
((87- Zinc the sorceress, helper to those feeling abandoned to the rescue!)) I was fighting a particularly large person in a black robe. Suddenly, he punched me in the stomach so hard that I flew across the room and hit the wall with such force it made a hole. I started vomiting, for the force of the punch had quite hurt my stomach. Armada’s face appeared. She beckoned to someone, and she and Earthgirl crawled out and were swept into the fight.
Baylee, Kokonilly, and AvalonGirl walked briskly down the hallway. We ran into reinforcements, but luckily they did not recognize us, the bunny suits were good enough. “Hey guys, I found the hypnotizing room!” they stood in front of a large doorway. Inside, was the boy, and many other humans that had been hypnotized.
I stopped puking, and went back to fighting. suddenly, I was slammed into the control panel. I pushed several buttons before I was able to get up, including the “self- destruct button.” I heard a siren wail.
I said gruffly, “We need the prisoners, uh, testing.”
) were taken care of and we then proceeded… somewhere.
“What room?”
“There’s a huge fight going on, uh, somewhere, and we need to see how well they cope.”
“Fine.” I couldn’t believe it! They were so gullible! We led out the hypnotized people and brought them to a small corner, where we de-hypnotized them quickly and brought them to the ongoing battle. Soon, all of the dementoids (
((285- Yes, we should! I’d been thinking about that for a while…his character seemed just right to be a traitor. Nicely nondescript, supposedly “noble” character, the usual tragic story…it all fits.
fire away!))
BA…sort of.
I spotted that Agrrrfishi had cornered Justin, though most of his face was covered in the hood. Justin was simultaneously fake pleading with Aggie and drawing a weapon from underneath his cloak. I saw what was going to happen before it did. Justin stopped his pitiful hostage act and pounced with a short lightsaber knife and grappled with Aggie, attempting to stab her but getting beat up himself. I kicked out at Justin–hard. He rolled off Aggie, drew a blaster with his other hand, and shouted for the help of another of the dark side.
I landed heavily on top of him, but that didn’t deter him, while I was maybe taller and a little older, he was still strong, and sent a fist smashing into my ribs. I rolled away from him as Aggie slashed at him. I wiped the blood out of my eyes and floored the black robe Justin had called. With a flash from my blaster, the black robe crashed to the floor.
Justin seemed to have the upper hand in the fight with Aggie; he had obviously worked very hard at this venture. Including being with those other kids…
((91 – Gah. Ignore the last sentence on mine; it makes everything too easy.))
I turned in time to see Agrrrfishi getting cornered by Justin. I flew into action at the same time Aaron did. Aaron jumped on Justin. His eyes were furious and burning with anger. I went to Aggie and jumped in front of her, shielding her.
((oh CAKE!!!!!!!!! I’m so sory armada!!!! I am so horrible about being consistant!!!! I need to at least let you guys know when I won’t be on. please syllblb! I agree with armada. and I appolpgise for that misspelling which I am too lazy to correct))
ARmada and I ran down a corridor alongside our mysterious rescuer. “who-are-you?” I puffed.
“no time! we have to get back to the others.”
“wait!” cried armada. “what about the brain??”
“we have to destroy it! we’re the only one’s who can, and that would be the last thing IT would expect!” ((who has read “a wrinkle in time?” I am making severeal references, and you might be able to get a better picture…or not. idk))
“yeah, but how do we get to it?” -armada
“follow me” -mysterious stranger who may or may not be sylabub
I saw Justin attacking Aggie and ZVX. That traitorous GIT! I thought, and slingshot my dagger to where I thought Justin would be. It narrowly missed his head. He looked to where the knife had come from, and saw me, slingshot and all. He grinned maliciously, and threw a sword at me. It hit my shoulder. My shoulder was bleeding like a Niagara Falls falls. Bugger! Bugger bugger bugger BUGGER!
((Oh, snapples. Kokonilly’s post wasn’t moderated yet.))
((I also added a little more romance into the mixture with my post.))
Baylee quickly unlocked AvalonGirl’s cuffs, and ran after Kokonilly. “You EVIL LITTLE!” she yelled at Justin. She got him in a headlock and cuffed his hands behind his back, just than he elbowed her, hard, in the stomach. “ARGH!!!!!” Baylee said as she got pushed back. “SOMEBODY GRAB HIM!”
I wrenched the sword out of my shoulder, and threw it back at Justin. He caught it, and we started a deadly game of catch. ((How’s THAT for great metaphors? You know, I just realized I write my best in RPGs.))
((Thanks guys.))
((99- I know, same here.))
I battered the sword Justin had hurled at Zinc. He looked up, grinned evilly, and dodged Aaron, catching him as Aaron hurtled past and slamming him into the wall. Justin aimed his blaster at me.
“I’m looking forward to this. You can cause an awful lot of trouble for one person, ZVX.” He moved the blaster, deciding where the shot should go. “Soon the Resistance will answer to Commander Justin…not you, not that you ever were a great commander, just an abomination that causes too many momentous events for his size.”
Justin got no farther, because Zinc had clubbed him soundly to the ground with a broken piece of doorframe. He was temporarily knocked out, but we had to act fast: I resumed my usual position.
“Everyone, come with me. We need to get to the shuttle as fast as possible.”
After Justin was knocked out, Baylee handcuffed him. ” If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something,” she randomly quoted. “Well, it’s true!” she said.
Before getting to the shuttle, I shoved Justin into a strait jacket and stashed him in a corner. “Peace, sucker!” I laughed, and Leafy and I ran down the hallway, towards the shuttle. ((Serves him right! Attack my friends, will you! Grrrr…))
(My POV, from post 92. Sorry, I’ve been out on a family excursion all day!)
I could hardly believe my eyes. Under that hood was a familiar face. It was Justin. I opened my mouth in shock and rage. “YOU!” I cried, drawing mylightsaber, blue to counter his green one. “And all this time… I thought you were our friends.” I saw Emmy and Lucy peering out from underneath the dashboard, eyes tearful and wide as saucers. They hadn’t realised their betrayal until now.
“It doesn’t have to be this way, you know”, he said in a low, hissing voice. ‘You were my first pick to hypnotize. You are, after all, a very strong fighter. Then, I realized Aaron would notice. So I decided to go my own way.” He looked at me, his milky brown eyes turning a poisonous red as I looked on.
“You don’t have to be this way, either!” I cried. “It’s not your fault, Justin, it’s theirs! Please, come back to our side. I know what they did to you was wrong for any human to endure, but you have to trust that humanity is the good side!”
“I’m sorry”, he said in a lower voice. “I can’t turn back.” And he raised his lightsaber to strike.
Suddenly, I was pinned, completely unaware of my surroundings. I dodged his saber, which was furiously trying to stab me. Then, there was a loud yell, and Justin was tackled as ZVX landed on top of him. I gasped, the combined weight of two teenage boys was a terrible lot. But ZVX gave him a punch to the ribs, causing him to double up as his lightsaber fell from his hand. It fell and inch from my face. I could smell it singing my hair. I tried stumbling to my feet, slashing at Justin while he was still vulnerable. Thern, ZVX was replaced by another figure as Justin was tackled and pinned to the ground. I saw Aaron on top of Justin, black hair falling over his angry grey eyes. “Out of all the people that could have been watching us”, he growled, “it had to be YOU. I should have known.” I watched in horror and anticipation as Aaron’s heroics were put into place, fighting what I knew had been his almost brother. Kokonilly had rushed over to me now, shielding me with her arms. This was unnecessary precaution, but still, I appreciated the gesture. “Don’t worry”, I said. “I’ve never been better.” I ducked under her to fend off another black robed figure who was making his way toward the both of us. “Double kick twist with a backflip foot to the ribs?” I asked. “You’re on”, she replied, and we got into the position to perform a two-way fighting maneuver that I had taught her, something I had learned at martial arts camp. With a kick into the air, we surrounded the unsuspecting robe from both sides and did a double flip into the air, catching him twice on each side of the hood and then doing a flip-chop to his rib cage. The pained and nameless fighter fell to the ground, thoroughly unconscious.
I turned back around to see that Aaron had fully knocked Justin silly, and now Baylee, AvalonGirl, and Zinc were attacking him. Aaron ran over to me and grabbed me by the shoulders. “Are you all right?” he asked, eyeing my limp hair and connecting it to my scalp.
“Never better”, I replied. He smiled, and then gave me a quick and nevertheless meaningful hug. Then, he let go. “Well, better be off. So much butt to kick, so little time.” He ran off, over to where ZVX and the others were standing. I felt myself blushing furiously.
“Ick. Mushy”, said Kokonilly dissapprovingly, but she smiled. I looked after Aaron to see ZVX and Justin standing alone in the middle of the floor. Then, Aaron ran at Justin, who expertly dodged him, and then sent him into a wall. I saw him collapse, a gash bleeding from a wound to the head. I dashed over, heart pounding. I looked back to see Zinc deliering the final blow to the traitorous Justin with a piece of doorframe. Then, ZVX shouted, “We’ve got to get back onto the shuttle!” I signaled to Kokonilly to help me lift Aaron to his feet. “For a strong sixteen year old, you sure take a lot of damage”, I said softly, placing his arm around my shoulder and helping him out the door after ZVX.
“You’re not so perfect yourself, Lieutenant”, he replied, grinning lopsidedly. I rushed as fast as I could after the group, who was moving quickly, Aaron on my shoulder. I saw Leafy stuffing Jusin into a corner, handcuffed and looking mad as all get out. He stared into Aaron’s eyes for a moment. Aaron looked as though he might go back for Justin, after all that had happened. But he steeled himself and kept moving. The three little girls had already passed by, unaware of what Justin’s fate was going to be. I was unsure of what their fate would be as well. We were nearly at the shuttle now. The main port of the enormous bunny cruiser was getting more and more into view as we stumbled into the light.
((It was a strait jacket, Aggie dearest, and I stashed him in the corner. He was knocked out at the time, so no worries. Nice post, though.))
“Ick. Mushy,” I commented on Aggie’s huuuuuug with Aaron. I smiled, though. Later, I helped Aaron get up and piled into the shuttle.
((87-Okay, I’ll join. But first I’m going to read some of Part 5, so I won’t be as confused. Sorry if I’m a little slow when I start posting.))
((Sorry for the double post(?)but if someone could write me in, that would be great so that I wouldn’t just have to throw myself in somewhere.
))
((109- Sure! I will! Right now!
)) The shuttle doors closed. I went over to a cannon, as did Leafy. I heard something tapping on roof above my head. I left the cannon, drew my sword, and opened the door on the roof. A brunette girl with dirt streaked on her face was in mid-tap. “Who are you?” I shouted. The girl raised her arms. “I’m Syllabub!” she said. “Don’t kill me!” ((Well, I’ll just let everyone add on to this. And I like you, Syllabub. I really do like you.))
We were inside the shuttle now. I helped Aaron over to a cot and lay him down. His head was still bleeding,and had left a large stain on my suit. I didn’t care. I was just happy that we were finally leaving William behind. One of Earthgirl’s alien friends came over to the both of us. He spoke Arglathian, which I had once studied. The alien wanted to help Aaron, so I stepped away to another cot where I was lain down and the gashes and gouged in my legs from jumping through the galss were attended to. When we were both back on our fet, we strode to a pair of blaster cannons. I sat down, bringing the opposing cruisers into focus. “o you know how to-” I began.
“It’s a cannon. How hard could it be?” he said.
“You have no idea.” I shook my head. “Here. To ready the cannon, use this joystick until target area comes into the red view zone. Then, to press both these buttons at once and pull down on this lever to fire.”
“Wow”, he said. “More complicated than I thought. Back home, when we used blasters it was just fire aimlessly. You guys are a lot more polished.”
“Well, to stay alive you have to be”, I reasoned. Then, a loud alarm sounded through the shuttle. “Battle cruiser at twelve o’clock!” yelled ZVX. “Man you stations!”
(( Cake, I’m sorry, guys. I feel like a jerk, getting all impatient and then leaving entirely. My family had some stuff come up, but I’m back. 94, the stranger is Juliet, I think.)) Earthgirl and I ran down the corridor after the girl. “Are you sure you know where we’re going?” I asked, panting a little. The girl was fast! “Of course I do. Come on, the sooner we get to the brain the sooner everyone else will be safe.” We turned a corner, and I recognised the room with the brain in it. The only thing was, there were also at least fifty black robes in the room. Obviously their leader was not going to leave its brain unprotected. I looked at the two others. “Think we can do this?” The stranger shook her head. “With luck, we won’t need to fight any of them. With luck– and with this.”
((Oh wow. Agrrrfishi, sorry, I’m not giving away piepoints, but you can have 50 brain points from the dealer….which is yours truly. Also, my mistake: we aren’t in a shuttle, we’re in a pod.))
“Attack shuttle at twelve o’ clock!” I shouted. “Man your stations.” I leaned forward on the controls, performing some aerobatics that put even the finest bunny ships to shame. I took a second to recover from the vertigo, then flipped the pod around and shot into the nose cone of the shuttle bearing on us. To my satisfaction, the bunny driving was hurled into the air, causing the shuttle to go temporarily out of control, until another bunny took the wheel.
The pod bucked a little, and shot skyward, flinging us backward. “Hold on to those that are wounded!” I yelled. “Aerial chase again. We should be able to avoid them; but keep your weapons trained on that black bunny in the cockpit of shuttle number three!”
The pod executed a 360. degree turn in midair, causing the laser burst aimed at the cockpit–more importantly, the engine, the steering, and the driver–merely bounced off a shield.
((110-Thanks Zinc! Did you imagine me as a brunette? Because I’m actually dirty-blonde.))
I tapped desperatly on the trap-door below, hoping that some human from the battle would hear me. Suddenly, in mid-tap, the door opened, and a girl wielding a sword pointed at me stood below. “Who are you?” she shouted, a defensive look on her face. “I’m Syllabub! Don’t kill me!!” I said, raising my arms in a defensive gesture above my head. The girl slightly lowered her sword. “I’ve been trapped up here, but they haven’t hypnotized me yet. They can’t, for some reason. But I think they will find out how to, if I don’t get out of here soon. You’ve got to help me!! All the other humans are hypnotized, and I’m the only one left. I’ve got nothing to fight them with. Please!” I pleaded, a note of hystaria in my tone. The girl’s expression softened, and she lowered her sword completly.
((Yay! I did it!! Thanks again, Zinc.))
Baylee leaped into the pod, grabbed a pretty large bazooka launcher, and shot at a bunny shuttle, it exploded when it hit the shuttle, but the explosion wasn’t big enough to satisfy her. So she grabbed a flare, and through it right where the engine was held. A small mushroom cloud appeared. “Well, that was pretty violent,” Kokonilly commented, “I thought you were a pacifist…”
“I am a pacifist,” I said, that got some strange looks. “What? Destroying bunnies because they want to take over the world is so much more different than killing people for no particular reason.” Even with that explanation, it still sounded ironic. “Ah, well.”
((Muses Above! This is so totally crazy. I read everything (and that is a ton). I am finding it a bit confusing. Am I correct in assuming that somehow, we have all ended up back in the pods along with the rescued captives, the bunny ship is going to self destruct soon, and we found the hypnotized boy and other hypnotized captives and have dehypnotized them? I hope so. An here is a list of the involved characters thus far because I think we need a list, what with all of these people:
ZVX
Zinc
Leafy
Kokonilly
Groundhog
Kittymine
Armada
Juliet
Aggie
TGYPWYA
TMFA
Earthgirl
AvalonGirl
Serafina
Syllabub
Baylee
Here are the other charcters who are controlled- they aren’t posting MBers:
Aaron
Emmy
Lucy
Stassi
Justin
Now, about that battery… if it was destroyed, the bunny numbers should be thinning. I don’t know if we are using the battery idea.
Concerning the black robed men who seem to be a lot like Ring Wraiths… they are basically humans who are under the dominion of the guy who removed his brain (yes, I do get the Wrinkle in Time reference!), correct?
Of William… it appears that we have captured two of his Phylacteries (for those who don’t recall, Phylacteries are horcruxes), one from Aggie and one from Juliet. It seems that he is back again in some form, but we haven’t really encountered him, right?
In conclusion, sorry for all the questions and for being away so long. Please confirm my thoughts. Oh, and I notice no one knocked me out during my absence. Whatever.))
After Baylee’s little fit of violence, I didn’t quite know what to do, so I idly practiced lifting small objects (such as rocks, blades of grass, thread, and flies) and zooming them around the room, much to the dismay of my fellow passengers.
((Sorry, Syllabub. I do suppose I’m dirty blonde, but I’m a bit more toward the blond and have a bit of red in it. I’m thirteen here, by the way.)) I lowered my sword. “Come in!” I said. She started toward me, and I went inside. “There’s another person coming aboard. Her name is Syllabub, and she’s somewhat resistent to hypnosis. I think she’s on our side.” Just then, Syllabub clambered in. She picked up a particularly large gun, and started shooting at the hull of a bunny ship. “I like her.” Leafygreen said to me. “She has a certain amount of battle instinct around her. I can feel it.” She punctuated her sentence by blowing up a ship.
((116- There are also a few other captives. Oh wait, what happened to them? Kokonilly? What did we do with them?))
((119 – I really don’t know. Maybe we left them.))
((120- ‘Tis a possibility. I think we may have left the adults/ teenagers/ red haired boy behind, or is someone still looking for the boy?))
I clambered into the pod after Kokonilly, hurrying to a seat and strapping in (I still hadn’t forgotten about the last wild ride in the pod). Good thing too- ZVX anounced that he would be flying just like last time- crazily. Well, we were undoubtedly being pursued. I noticed Zinc suddenly stand up an open a hatch in the ceiling, raising her sword. A girl with dirty-blond hair tumbled into view.
“I’m Syllabub! Don’t kill me!! I’ve been trapped up here, but they haven’t hypnotized me yet. They can’t, for some reason. But I think they will find out how to, if I don’t get out of here soon. You’ve got to help me!! All the other humans are hypnotized, and I’m the only one left. I’ve got nothing to fight them with. Please!†Syllabub seemed close to hysteria. Zinc’s face softened, and she led Syllabub to a chair. Syllabub sat down and promptly began to shoot at the bunny ship. Leafy grinned and began shooting as well. Then Kokonilly started levitating things. This was all a bit too overwhelming for me, so I pulled out my notebook and started writing to get away from all of the hullabaloo.
“Oh, guys- make sure that the Back Door Which is Somehow Always Open gets locked, please” I called over my shoulder.
That was when the Back Door burst open and a bunch of helibunnies entered.
“I always speak one sentence too late.”
((
the captives…er…were doing fine, so we let them go. Most logical explanation. We’re in the middle of a battle, so we can’t worry about that right now. 
))
I glanced behind at the new girl, Syllabub. She was firing on the bunny ships pursuing us, and showing a remarkable amount of guts as far as standing there went.
I grinned. We might make it out of here. If we didn’t…I decided not to think about that. However, the biting thought continued to tug at the very corner of my subconscious.
Oh, shut up, I told myself. You’re better than that.
“What the–CAKE!” I swore, punched autopilot, and leaped out of the cockpit. “FIRE!”
I heard Kittymine say, “Oh, guys- make sure that the Back Door Which is Somehow Always Open gets locked, please.” Just then, the door slammed open, and helibunnies came in. “Come ON, Kittymine!” I called over the sudden fight for our lives, “Back Door Which is Somehow Always Open is somehow always open! Why else would it be named that?!”
((119- Me, Earthgirl and Juliet are still in the– Wait a minute! You LEFT??? I don’t think I’ve seen you guys since the first post I was in! We’ll manage, just don’t go off on any other quests. Also, don’t be too alarmed if the bunny ship unexpectedly blows up. We’ll be fine. I’m can’t write anything lengthy right now because my mom is calling me, but feel free to do something yourselves.
))
((116- I think William should come back one more time. Then, who knows what. I had an idea, but I’d like some agreement before we launch it in to action at a later time.))
Suddenly. without warning, we were being shot at. I screamed as the pod took a wild buck to the side, luckily I had remembered my seatbelt this time. I took aim and began firing at the opposing cruiser. Aaron, swiveled his seat and his cannon as to give me further assistance.The pod took another flip, this time all the way around. “COOL YOUR JETS, ZVX!” I yelled, incensed at the fact that everything in the pod was once more flying past my head.
“Sorry!” he screamed from the cockpit. “They’re firing at us like mad!”
“I know!” I cried. “Aaron and I have left flank. Who’s on right?”
“Kokonilly!” he said.”And a newcomer-Syllabub!”
“Rodger dodger!” I shouted, then took a shuddering blast at the cruiser’s main shield. This ship did not have the same defence mechanisms as the main cruiser. Aaron swiveled his seat back to face me.He began to shout over the blasts.
“Hey!”, he cried. “Sometime, if all this ever ends, would you want to go for milkshakes or something?”
If this ever ended, I thought. Peace seemed like something from another lifetime, that I had long since left behind. I wondered if any part of Earth was still the same. Reality brought me back to my senses.
“Are you asking me out?” I cried.
“In a manner of speaking!” he replied, making a spectacular blow to one of the cruiser’s main jets. I blasted off and let out a volley of bangs as it exploded.
“Is now really the best time?” I asked.
“It’s now or never, don’t you think?” he yelled. Then, there was a bang from behind us. Helibunnies were flowing in from the Back Door Which is Somehow Always Open.
Baylee gave a loud battle cry and took out two lasrer guns from her belt. She started shooting at the heli-bunnies. “Guys!” she shouted over the noise, “Land the pod! I’ll try and keep ’em away from the front. Hurry!” She shot another round of lasers at them, and launched a mini bazooka right into the middle of the group of bunnies.
Dear Kibems, Madams and Sirs,
I hope you will all surrender to the forces of the BUNNIES!
MWAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
-Prime Minister
I heard my name vaguely and was jolted out of my trance. Fifteen specks of dust fell to the ground. “Whaaa?”
“You’re right flank! PAY ATTENTION!” I was shoved to a cannon and introduced to Syllabub (“You weren’t paying attention? This is Syllabub”). I immediately got control of myself and started firing, until I saw the helibunnies flowing in. I dragged Zinc over to the cannon with a hasty “don’t die” and drew my lightsaber.
I went over to the Back Door Which is Somehow Always Open and slammed it shut and locked it. Then, I (with a signal to Baylee) joined forces with Baylee and turned all of the helibunnies to our side. I then proceeded to open the Back Door Which is Somehow Always Open, kick them out to wreak havoc among the other bunnies, slammed it shut and locked it.

“Come in!†the girl said. I followed after her, and she went inside. “There’s another person coming aboard. Her name is Syllabub, and she’s somewhat resistent to hypnosis. I think she’s on our side.†THe girl said. I jumped down through the trapdoor of my cell. I picked up the largest gun I saw, and started shooting at the hull of a bunny ship right away. Might as well make myself useful as soon as I could, I thought. Suddenly, a large group of helibunnies swarmed in. I grabbed another abandond gun and fired away. I had great aim, and kept knocking them down with ease. But I tried not to get too comfortable, because when something seems to be going well, something awful will thwart your efforts.
The fight continued, this time both inside and outside the pod. I kept pumping my blaster at the helibunnies until Kokonilly and Baylee turned their minds with the Force. Then Kokonilly kicked them out the Back Door, wreaked havoc outside for a few minutes, and then shut and locked the Back Door.
“Thanks Kokonilly!” I called out, before turning back to my cannon.
Kokonilly and Baylee high-fived as the helibunnies went out of the Back Door That Always Seems to be Open. “Nice! Ok, then, what to do now?” Baylee said as she fired at a bunny shuttle, and it exploded.
I shrugged as I grabbed a cannon. “I dunno.” I fired a direct hit on the bunny shuttle.
((Sigh… And the tab button STILL doesn’t work! Oh well…)) The stranger– hadn’t she said her name was Juliet or something like that?– pulled a small package out of her pocket. Earthgirl and I squinted at it. “What’s that?” I asked. “It doesn’t look like much.” She nodded. “I know. That’s the idea. It’s an ultra-small time bomb. It’s so small, nobody will notice if I throw it in there, but it’s powerful enough to blow up the whole ship. Once it’s activated, we have ten minutes to get out of here.” I frowned. “That’ll be awesome if it works. But is ten minutes enough time to get off the ship? I mean, it would be enough in a ship that we knew, but I don’t think anyone knows this one well enough to find the escape pods in less than ten minutes. It’s a big ship.” The girl looked slightly embarrassed. “Well, actually… I know this ship pretty well. The pods are right around the left fork of this corridor.” I frowned again. “How do you know the ship so well?” I hadn’t thought about it before, but the girl seemed to know this ship as if it were her own. “It’s a long story. You just have to trust me.” I shrugged. She had saved our lives, after all. I didn’t think she as going to betray us at this point. “Fine. So are we ready?” I took a deep breath. “Let’s do it!”
((it just occurred to me now. We’re getting a little off topic here, aren’t we? I mean, this thread is Bunny Apocalypse, not Weird-Things-in-Black-Cloaks Apocalypse. Oh well, It’ll all work out eventually.))
Kokoilly kicked the Helibunnies out the back door and slammed it with a loud BANG. “Whew”, I sighed, brushing beads of sweat from my forehead. I tunred my cannon back to focus at the next armed battleship, and took careful aim at the shield transmitter. It exploded, and I was able to take a few well-placed chunks out of it with my destruction ray.
((124-I did not LEAVE!!!! *indignant* 134-what about everyone else. *readseverything else* oh. never mind))
as Juliet was about to throw the time bomb, I shouted, “WAIT!!! what if the glass it is behind is bulletproof!!!?? I would’nt put it past this weird wrinkle in time-artemis fowl morph to do something like that!” as I stopped my rant, we noticed that the brain’s pink spots started to grow larger and get rid of the red ones. the gaurdsstarted to waver, then they all fell, consumed by bunnifulness for the time being. ((I think this means the red-eyed thing is losing conrtol and becoming bunnified by accident. is that ok for getting it back focused on bunnies?))
((129- *cracks up* “bipeds can kick your puce cottontails anyday”? ROFL!!!!))
“Are you mad, Baylee?” I bellowed over the fight. “We’d get shot down!” At that moment, the noise went down to a dull roar as Kokonilly savagely kicked the Helibunnie’s puce cottontails out the BDTASTBO.
The pod performed some aerial backflips as I spun dials, leaned on joysticks, and hit the 360 button. Suddenly I noticed something.
“We’re out of fuel.”
I held my tongue, trying not to say a worse word than: “Cake.”
I said it in unison with several other people.
((138- I only speak the truth.
))
I stopped dead. “SAY WHAT?!?” I screamed to ZVX. I could practically hear the ship shuddering as the entire craft began to make a slow and increasingly rapid descent.
“See for yourself!” he cried. I rushed over an looked at the fuel aguge. A big old ‘E’ stared me straight in the eyes.
“OoOOooh…CAAAAAAKE!” I screamed, my head almost turning around on it’s neck.
“Well, maybe ‘E’ means EXTRA fuel!” said Syllabub, who had appeared at my shoulder. ((Okay, I got this from and episode of Drake and Josh, but I felt that this would be the perfect time to say it.))
We were falling like a bullet now, and I knew that this might very well be the last time any of us ever saw one another. I rushed over to my seat and put my head in my arms. I waited for the end.
I felt the pod starting to drop and decided I should take action. Praying this would hold the weight of the pod, I stood on a chair, opened the sunroof, and threw out my personalized parachute.
Kokonilly lifted her parachute out. We slowed, then I heard a ripping sound. Kokonilly now held a parachute, torn in half. We went down even faster.
We were falling- fast. I immediately starting tearing through my bag, searching for something, anything, that could save us from a seriously painful and embarrasing end. As I rummaged frantically, an idea popped into my head.
“Kokonilly! Baylee! Groundhog! Can you guys use all of the Force you can muster to slow us down?” I yelled, my hair whipping about my face.
((Oh, and for those of you who are really confused, here is a summary since last summary in post 279, Part 5:
We run into the room to rescue RK. A large fight ensues between us, HPBs, the hypnobunnified Zombie humans, and William who is in the body of a female vampire, hence the Mistress. We free RK, get injured, meet some Ring Wraith/ Sith Lord things that are helping the bunnies, and remove William yet again from the vampire girl, whose name is Juliet(controlled by Armada), who joins the Resistance. Aggie and Kokonilly rescue some kids that were being held by the bunnies- Justin, Aaron, Emmy, Lucy, and Stassi (controlled by Aggie. Romance between Aggie and Aaron). Meanwhile, Baylee finds some other prisoners, most of whom are in their late teens/ adults. I little red haired boy runs off- he appears to be hypnobunnified. Leafy and Zinc are captured by some weird guy who removed his own brain when it got too big for his head. He, I think, is the one who controls the Ring Wraith/ Sith Lord things. After falling through the floor, ZVX, Baylee, AvalonGirl, Serafina, Aggie, and Kokonilly (I think that’s everyone) rescue the kids yet again, and everyone runs for the pods. We then meet more Ring Wraith/ Sith Lord things, and find out that Justin is really working with them, so he is put in a straight jacket and dumped unceremoniously in the back of at pod. Leafy, Zinc, Juliet, and Earthgirl are left behind with one pod still suckered to the bunny ship which may or may not be about to self destruct (I’m not sure if that idea took off). The rest of the gang (including me and Groundhog who were not mentioned at all really because we were away and didn’t post), lift off and start flying away, shooting at the bunny ship. We are then introduced to Syllabub, a girl who was on the top of our ship and is now with us. ZVX now notices that we have run out of fuel. We are currently falling with increasing speed, trying to figure out how to save ourselves from a painful and embarrasing end.))
((140-I’m not THAT stupid!!!
))
I heard the ripping sound of Kokonilly’s parachute, and tried to think of some way to slow the pod. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I remembered one of the few conversations I had heard about the pod. There was a button….somewhere…..that would power the pod long enough to get fuel……
((CAKE!!!! I have to go eat dinner……I will continue ASAP!!!))
((137- I was talking about everyone else. And THANK YOU for getting the focus back on the bunnies. Heh, assuming you’re all-powerful never pays.)) We stared at the fallen guards. “What the wung buttons is going on??” Earthgirl asked. I was just as puzzled as she was. Juliet shook her head. “I don’t know either.” Our answer came a minute later in the form of a squadron of bunnies. They moved between the cloaks and shot any who tried to get up. I sighed. “Looks like William is back in business. So what do we do now?” Juliet shrugged. “I say we go with plan one. Toss the bomb in there and run.”
“No! My parachute!” It had torn in half. I heard Kittymine’s plea, then combined my powers with Baylee and Groundhog. We abruptly stopped with a loud CRACK. “Ow. Whiplash,” we said in unison. Losing our concentration, we started to plummet down. “No! Concentrate!” I tried again. This time, we slowly came to a gentle stop.
“All right. Let’s go.” Juliet wound up her arm and tossed the bomb into the middle of the room. I looked at it skeptically. “Are you sure it’s activated? It doesn’t look like it’s doing anything.” Juliet nodded. “It’s activated. Ticking would kinda ruin the whole idea. After all, it’s small so nobody will notice it. Now, shall we get out of here before this half of the ship blows up?” “Oh. Right. Yeah, let’s go.” We took off down the corridor. None of the bunnies appeared to notice, being too busy killing black robes. We turned a corner, then another, and the pod dock came into view. This ship’s pods were quite a bit nicer than our own, with lots of brushed aluminum and more guns than anything that size should be able to carry. We hopped in one, Earthgirl taking the steering and I the guns. Juliet was the backup. All this sounds like it took a long time, but in reality it took about two minutes. We had all been trained to do this. Earthgirl steered the pod out of the airlock and into space, then gunned the throttle to get as far away from the ship as possible. We’d been fast, but not fast enough to be completely safe. When we were a safe distance away, Earthgirl stopped the pod and we watched the ship. Nothing happened. We waited. Nothing. “Hmm….” We waited some more. And some more. Finally Juliet sighed. “If it was going to go off it would have by now. Someone must have found the bomb and disarmed it. Well, at least we’re off the ship. Say, where’s everyone else?” I shrugged. “I don’t know. I assume they’re off the ship, but I’m not sure.” Earthgirl grimaced. “You don’t know. In that case, it’s lucky the bomb didn’t go off. We could have blown up the entire Resistance along with the bunnies.” I groaned. “Oh, Koko. We didn’t think of that. Well, I guess luck is on our side.” “Um, I hate to interrupt,” Juliet said, “The others are over there. But they’re in trouble.”
((WHAT THE CAKING HECK HAPPENED TO MY COMMENT???? It just disappeared! I’m too tired to write it over again tonight. And if it’s just something wacky with my computer (I’ve been saying that way too much), never mind in advance.))
((Oh, there it is. Never mind. And sorry for the triple post.))
Despite many valiant attempts to save us, we were STILL FALLING. I sighed, and stood up from my chair, striding as quickly as possible over t0o the back of the pod. I then proceeded to knock on the back wall, listening closely with my ear until finally I heard a hollow clang. I pried a very unnocticeable panel open with my strong fingertips. Inside were about four large tanks, all labeled ‘Spare Fuel’. “You OBVIOUSLY couldn’t have noticed these”, I said exasperatedly.
“FIX THE CAKING FUEL!” everyone screamed in unison. Quickly, I felt around behind the gas tanks until my hand oung a small, square button. I pressed it in. Instantly, the pod stopped falling and everyone was hurled to the floor, cheering.
“That should give us enough boost to kill a few bunny sips and get back to the main tanker of Earthgirl and Armada’s”, I said.
“Thnak Koko”, sighed a frazzled looking Kittymine.
“Now if only I knew how to put that panel back in place…” I muttered.
((I changed my name again. Kinda. More like I added a title to myself. Whatever.))
My Force idea kinda worked- except for when it didn’t. We slowed down, but we were still falling pretty fast. Then Aggie found the extra fuel, so we were back on the road. As I resumed my position in front of a blaster cannon, I noticed a metallic something moving just inside my peripheral vision. I turned sharply to see a brushed aluminum pod flying toward us. And it appeared to have come from the bunny ship…
‘Oh, please don’t be more bunnies. I really don’t think I could handle that’
But as the ship got closer to us, I noticed a familiar someone sitting in the pod’s cockpit.
“Guys! Whatever you do, DONT SHOOT THAT BUNNY POD!! Earthgirl, Armada, and Juliet are in there!”
We had FINALLY stopped falling, thanks to Aggie. I new there must have been some spare fuel or something to help us. I picked up my guns, which I had dropped from the sudden force of the pod falling. My eyes flickered left, then right, seeing if there was anything I could do. I felt a jolt in my stomach. There was a pod flying towards us, with a lot of speed. I aimed my guns, and was about to shoot, when Kittymine shouted, Guys! Whatever you do, DONT SHOOT THAT BUNNY POD!! Earthgirl, Armada, and Juliet are in there!†I lowered my guns, and wondered what was going on.
((Ugh, I’m totally out of ideas, and can’t think of anything esle to write!!!! Grrrrrr……))
There was a pod coming right towrd us, and I began to ready my cannon to shoot it. Then, Kittymine yelled not to shoot it because Earthgirl and Armada were in there. I relaxed positon. It seemed that now there was smooth sailing.
As it turned out, I was wrong.
((Hello everyone, I’ve been lurking awhile on the Apocalypse threads and finally decided to post. Can someone write a part where I can jump in? Thanks.))
((Yay! We’re back with everyone else! And I finally figured out how to make paragraphs! And so I don’t confuse everyone, this is happening in between my last post and when you see us. Also, just BTW, I don’t think you guys are in a pod. Pods can only hold five people, and there are at least fifteen in your ship.))
We looked over. “Uh-oh…” I said. “Yeah.”said Juliet. “Do you think there’s any way we can help them?” “I don’t think so. There’s no way we can stop them, not in this thing.” We watched helplessly as the ship dropped. Then it suddenly stabilized itself and flew upwards again. Everyone said “Phew!” simultaneously. “They must have found some more fuel,” Juliet said. “Well, that’s good. We’ve been having too many nasty shocks lately. Let’s go over and rejoin them.”
I saw a person with non-pink eyes falling. I opened the moonroof and they landed with a loud THUMP. Zonka ((I am not sure if this is an alter ego on accident or what, I’ve never heard of Zonka before)) said feebly, “Hello, everyone.”
((Zonka may be a Neophyte; but never found the Neophyte thread, like I did. I never found the Neophyte thread until I was a regular.))
“Thank the Muses. There was some rockets in the back, but they’re of the old model and are just as likely to have blown us up as help us.” I looked at the fuel gauge, it now said, ‘F’. Good, we were able to get away.
“We’re going back to the trench. We bipeds kicked their puce cottontails pretty well. If we’re ambushed, you know what to do.”
I grinned to myself, even slowing down the pod a little as a small mercy to the occupants.
THUD. A person dropped straight behind the cockpit. I whipped out my blaster and pointed it between their eyes.
“Who are you?”
((158- That happened to me, too. I dropped into the IMCT, and didn’t know a thing about the topic, which was karate.)) Leafygreen and I desparately shot at the hull of a ship. Suddenly, through one of the holes we were making in the hull, I saw a ton explosives. Before I could tell Leafygreen, she shot a flaming arrow into the hole. “GET DOWN ON THE GROUND!” I screamed.
((Wow, a lot has happened! As usual, of course…
Okay, in response to post 307, last thread, (Zinc): The official color of my hair is “dark strawberry blonde.” But for most purposes, it’s light brown, unless we’re in bright sunlight.))
I tried to help lift the ship, I really did, But the memory of what had just happened to me kept breaking my concentration. Luckily, someone found some fuel reserves, but this allowed the memory to take over my exhausted mind completely.
I was fighting another one of the humans with my lightsaber. He was, unfortunately for me, very talented. He began to taunt me, and it was then that I realized that something was wrong. “You think you’re such hot stuff, don’t you Groundhog?” he had said. My eyes flew open. “How do you know my name?” I asked him suspiciously. “You don’t recognize me?” he sneered. “Well, I suppose I am much more powerful-looking than the scrawny lab assistant from New Jersey that you fired.” I made sure not to let my guard down, and then thought back to my previous workplaces. I definitely hadn’t hired any non-Musers after the Bunny Melee. Which meant that this guy had been an asylum worker. Suddenly I remembered that during the Melee, one of the R&D lab workers had stolen the pink bunny essence that Penguini had spilled and had tried to use it to create an enhanced human who would be able to fight the bunnies more effectively. “Ferdinand!” I gasped. “Yep.” he said, grinning evilly. “I was going to create the ultimate fighter, and you fired me before I could finish, so that YOU could get the glory instead.” I frowned at him, slashing my lightsaber at his neck. “I knew that you were a little slow Ferd, but I would have thought that even you would have realized that putting HPB essence into a human would just bunnify the human. I fired you because you were going to create a monster inside the asylum, not because I wanted any glory.” He glared at me. “You think you’re so smart, smarter than anyone else, that only you could innovate, and not me. Well, at least I proved you wrong there!” “What do you mean by that?” I asked him, rolling my eyes. “I stole one of the so-called failures from your lab.” he said with satisfaction. “You had some variation on mad cow disease in your vault, and I took a bit of it, grew it in my lab, and created my enhanced human with that and some HPB essence. How do you think I got like this? I tested it out on myself. And it worked wonderfully.” I gave him a funny look. “Well, if this ‘enhanced human’ was supposed to fight the bunnies, then what are you doing on their side?” I asked. “Well, once I gained my new power, I realized that the bunnies had the right idea about things, and so I shared my knowledge with them. And now we will get rid of all of you, starting with you, Groundhog.” He looked extremely pleased with himself. “Ferdinand, your mind’s been taken over by the bunnies.” I said, willing my anger to go away. “And do you know what happened when you stole that mad cow variation? Some of it got out and killed an entire village, except for one person. And that person who lived blamed me for the death of her family and friends. Which was understandable, until now. Now I intend to punish you in the fullest way possible.” I finished, attacking with renewed vigor. He retaliated in kind. Finally, I mangaged to slice off the hand that he was using to hold the lightsaber. “Death is too good for you.” I said as I stood over him. “Luckily, I have something much worse.” I ran my lightsaber through him, then pulled out one of the sac-darts in my pocket and jabbed in into his neck, trapping his essence in the sac.
I could barely believe that I had done that to him. But his consciousness would be suspended as long as he remained in the sac, so if everyone else decided that he should just die, then that would happen without any inhuman pain. A thump on the roof interrupted my thoughts. “Just what we need.” I muttered. “More attackers.” But the person who dropped through the ship’s roof hatch wasn’t hot pink and appeared to be uninfluenced by the bunnies, although appearances could be deceiving. I went for my blaster, but ZVX got there first. “Not just who are you.” I said to the intruder, turning the copilot’s chair around so that I wouldn’t hurt my neck twisting around like that. “How did you manage to be right there waiting to jump into our ship without getting attacked by the bunnies? This all seems rather suspicious.”
Baylee heard a thump behind her and instinctively ready her light saber. “Ah! DON’T SHOOT!” The person shrieked. “My name is Zonka! I’m a survivor!” Baylee thought about this for a moment.
“What happened? A survivor of what?”
“Bunnies attacked my town, I managed to escape through the subway tunnels. ” Baylee looked at Kokonilly and nodded. She mouthed the words three, two, one, go and on go, Kokonilly delved into her mind. Baylee had wanted her to check the person, after that terrible betrayal. A few minutes later, Kokoilly came out of the trance and nodded in approval. “Hello Zonka!” Baylee said cheerfully. “Don’t worry, that’s how we greet all new comers. Well, from now on at least.” Baylee was pretty sure she had creeped the older girl out, by the look on her face, but Baylee didn’t mind, she was used to it.
((Um… hello?! A giant ship full of explosives that is really near to us has had a flaming arrow into?! Is anyone going to retaliate to the giant explosion so near to us we could all DIE?!))
((( Yay I can post again)))
Tokyo:
Oh cake, they forgot me. That shouldn’t be a problem, I thought as I set off my jet pack.
I quickly found the ship, I could tell it was about to be attacked by bunnies. Not a good place to be. Oh, well I thought as I uncerimoniously broke through the window and landed on my back.
” Not another one,” a girl groaned. ” Hello people, I’m Tokyo,”I said in a weirdly cheery voice.
((161 – What terrible betr – Oh. Never mind. *headdesk*))
I nodded to Baylee. Baylee told the girl that is was routine, but I paid no attention to that. I had looked out the window. There was a large ship full of explosives. With a flaming arrow stuck in it. “Cake, cake, cake, cake,” I mumbled. “ZVX! OUT OF THE WAY!” I grabbed control of the pod and stepped on it. We zoomed away just as a huge BOOM rocked our pod and set the tail end on fire. I sighed, went to the back, opened the door, threw a random bucket of water at it, went inside, and sat down, ignoring the stares I was getting.
I stared at Kokonilly. Why? I didn’t know. Everyone else was, so why not?
Baylee saw a bunny pod heading towards them. “I’ve got this one.” she leaped out of the Backdoor That Always Seems to be Open, onto the roof of the pod. She got her laser ready, and… BAM! She kicked the driver in the head, threw him out, and got into the pod. She turned on the intercom. “Hello passengers! Right now we will be flying slowly! So I will turn off the ‘fasten seat-belt sign’. You are now free to walk around the cabin!” After that, she did some 360s, and some pretty awesome twirling aerial flips and acrobats in the air. She heard a large thump in the back. “Ok passengers! I was wrong! Fasten your seat-belts!” Baylee grinned wildly, and radioed the shuttle. “I’ve got another pod! I’ll be in front scouting, checking to see if there’s anything in the way.”
((Thank you for finally posting, Groundhog. I was getting close to doing something drastic. Like stealing one of your stuffed animals and holding it hostage. Just kidding. Seriously.))
I held on tightly to my seat as we swerved away from the explosive ship at high speed. Unfortunately, our tail end ignited from the explosion, but Kokonilly easily dealt with that. Things were actually starting to go smoothly- we now had communications with the pod that Leafy, Earthgirl, Juliet, and Armada were in. I was just starting to get settled into my writing when there was a white flash of light. As a cold sensation swooped through my body I felt something cold and hard press painfully into my head. A ice cold, yet velvety bunny voice snickered behind me.
“So, biped, we meet again.” spoke William.
I realized, too late, that the Back Door had been left open.
((Sorry if this is a double post, but I have this idea for William. I am assuming that this is his third and final essence that we have to destroy, so I thought that it would be interesting if William is now in the form of a black bunny. This way he will have all of the abilities of a black bunny, plus his general evilness and cunning. Oh, and his insane hypnotic powers. I thought it would be nice to make our final spar with William the hardest challenge yet. What do you guys think? GAPAs are included in this survey.))
((Err… Leafy is in our pod? When did that happen? Has she even been here yet? And who the heck is Zonka? I’ve never seen them before. Kittymine, that sounds like a good idea, although it might be nice if Earthgirl and I could rejoin the story before the final battle begins. We’ve been cut off for a while now, and it might be hard on our characters if we came back to find that everything was already over and the celebrations were being cleaned up.))
((168- Right on. Go for it.
I am too tired to write right now, but if someone else would start this black bunny William saga off, I will be glad to post tomorrow morning. For details on why I am so terribly tired, see the random thread.))
(( Thank you everyone! Um…there’s a neophyte thread?? Heh heh. Anyway,))
“William?” Kittymine gasped. The bunny gave a low chuckle. The whole pod stood frozen.
“Hello, everyone,” he said, malice intwining every word. “What, bunny got your tounge?
((Sorry, but what are the black bunny abilities? I’ve only heard of Hot Pink ones.))
((169- Sure! Maybe you guys could board our ship from your pod. Then we’d all be together. Besides, if anyone hasn’t noticed, a white rinse went off in the ship, so now all of its occupants are frozen, with blasters aimed at them by various HPBs, Black Bunnies, and of course William, who for some reason is covering me. So your help would definitely be appreciated. The Back Door is open.))
I sat very still, trying to collect my thoughts. Not that staying still was difficult- I was frozen for Muse’s sake! I looked around at the rest of the ships occupants- everyone was frozen, with a bunny training a blaster at them. I observed that majority of the bunnies here were black, not hot pink.
‘This is not a good sign’ I thought.
I felt William pull my arms together behind my back and cuff them. I was then pulled up out of my chair, noticing as this occured that the same treatment was being executed on the others. Then I noticed William, or rather his new body. I screamed- involentarily and loudly.
‘Earthgirl, Armada, anyone, please help. Please rescue us now…’
((171- the abilities of the black bunnies? Well, for starters they can throw this tar like substance to glue you to the floor. They can Transfer (take over someone elses conciousness so that they are in control of the body. They can also do this for someone else, our name example being William, who has Transferred 3 times now), they have especially dangerous hypnotic powers- one nearly killed Kokonilly in Part 2 with it (though I think that now William has more powerful and dangerous hypnosis than any bunny alive). They are also good at sneaking around without being spotted, at least in the dark.
So combine these traits with Williams cunning, evil, hypnotic powers, strength, and speed, you can see how William is now the ultimate bunny challenge for us.))
((*shivers* Eek.))
((Eek doesn’t cover it. More like AAAHHHH! *faints*))
((173 – Yes, and thank you for nearly killing me but sparing me at the last minute. I thank you for that.
))
“W-william?” I stammered. “A black bunny?” Memories rushed back. I wobbled slightly but held my ground. I silently sent out a message to everyone using the Force: HELP.
((172-Good idea. I was also thinking along the lines of something like that. And now would definitely be a good time for us to show up.))
Earthgirl drove our pod over to the ship, and we docked next to the Back Door. The three ((four? I’m not sure what’s going on with Leafy)) of us got out after stuffing as many guns as we could onto our belts. Even if the battle was over, the war wasn’t, and we would definitely need them sometime in the future. As it turned out, sometime in the future was about five seconds away.
As soon as we entered the door, the whole scene hit us. All of the humans were standing frozen in place, presumably by a white rinse. The ship was filled with black bunnies, including one who looked somehow familiar. I shivered as I realized that it was William in a new body. I pointed him out to Earthgirl and Juliet. “That’s William. Let’s get him.”
((How long does it take for a white rinse to wear off? Five minutes? Ten minutes? Whatever is slow enough to frustrate you?))
‘Muses! He must have Transferred again! I’m willing to bet that the Black Bunny whose body he is using is giving him plenty of extra abilities. Like black bunny abilities’ I thought. I gulped ever so slightly. This seemed to amuse William; he chuckled softly.
“Trust me, biped, that gulp wasn’t nearly big enough.” His eyes narrowed to slits as he hissed, “Prepare to suffer, foolish bipeds.”
I wished that I still had my helmet as William turned his eyes on mine.
I stopped stock still. I knew it was William by the look he was giving Kittymine-pure evil, full of malice. I knew that stare. There was a time when I had been forced to give one as I attacked my friends as a puppet. And he was going to use it before hekilled us all.
I shot a very furtive look over at Aaron. He was sitting straight up in his chair, like me. But he didn’t seem to understand the gravity of the situation. I stood up from my chair.
“Stupid pucey dishrag. Leave my friends alone.”
The evil black bunny turned to face me now, a silly grin on his face that held a deadly promise. “Aha, the one who I controlled. I know your face.” He narrowed his eyes. ” You were always weak.” I clenched my fists, ready to knock his brains out, but just as suddenly, he sdent a bolt of blue light from his paws that hit me squarely in the chest. I fell flat, hitting my head on a chair.
“Don’t you touch her!” yelled Aaron, who leapt from his chair and pulled his lightsaber from his pocket, green light pulsing through it.
“Heroics”, said the bunny ahead. “I always hated them.” Then, he drew his own lightsaber. I saw Kokonilly and ZVX do the same. With the recognition that they two had taken over, Aaron knelt down beside me, and the fight broke out behind him. “Are you all right?” he muttered.
“Fine”, I said. “It’s not bad.” I wasn’t badly hurt, but my cranium was bruised. I was lifted carefully to my feet by his strong hands. Then, there was a battle cry as Zinc raised her blaster and began shooting wildly at reinforcement bunnies who had flown in on jet packs.
“That’s a new one”, I said to myself.
This was bad. I had no idea who this black bunny was, but even in my frozen state could feel that he was beyond evil. ((Yes, I have decided that I can feel what others are like. Their emotions, if they’re evil or not, you get the idea.)) I was handcuffed, and was totally helpless. I just could hope that Earthgirl and Armanda could rescue us.
((Kinda violent, beware.))
I ran to the back, jumping over William, and slammed the door shut, cutting off a few pairs of ears. I ran back and slammed my lightsaber through the back of his chest.
Caution-Some Violence
I saw Kokonilly run William through with her lightsaber. Instantly, there was a weird sucking noise and the entire weapon melted into William, causing him to grow twice as big. “Oh my Muse”, I muttered. “He can use the energy of an object to enlarge himself.”
William knocked ZVX to the ground with a forceful blow from his paw, which was as big or bigger than a human hand. He was nearly as tall as his old self. Then, he turned to me again.
“You spell trouble, short biped. I will finish you quickly.”
I snarled, my blure eyes turning violet with rage. “You can call me weak, you can hurt me, you can do whatever to me, but you never, EVER, CALL ME SHORT!” I raised my blaster and brought it down on his head with the metal end. This did nothing to affect him. He only laughed a high pitched note that rung in my ears. “How many times must I insult your intelligence for it to sink through your thick skull, stupid human!” His lightsaber missed my fingers by half a centimeter, I could feel the heat wafting towards my nails and burning under my fingertips. I lunged at him, and tacled him, pinning him to the ground. He glared, bared his teeth, and pushed his way out from under me, suffering me a blow to my ribs. As I crouched oh the ground, he brought a foot down on my back. I heard something snap. I screamed in pain.
I whimpered as William grew. “Whaa… wha…” I saw ZVX being knocked down and he stepped on Agrrrfishi. In a fit of rage, not thinking, I jumped on his back. I felt a most peculiar sensation as he sucked me in. Hold on, I thought. This could be the key to… I saw my lightsaber. I grabbed it and started wreaking havoc inside of William.
ZVX had radioed Baylee’s pod. “William, he’s, alive… Aggie’s down, Kokonilly’s inside of William. Try and help us, more bunnies are coming in and…” “Woah woah woah, strike that last thing, say it again slowly. Kokonilly’s inside of William? Am I hearing this right?” She heard some buzzing noises and than “Yeah.” “Ok! I’ll be over their in a jiffy! Open the back door, clear the way. I have a plan…” she stopped abruptly, swerved to the opposite direction, and took off towards the shuttle.
((Possibly violent- at least the end))
Lucky for me, most everyone had now unfrozen and came to my aid. William dropped me in the face of the others, but unfortunately my left leg was crushed beneath me when I hit a console. That kinda hurt- okay, make that really hurt. I think it was sprained. I slid down, crawling away as fast as my cuffed hands would allow. I heard the sounds of a full scale battle going on behind me.
‘I need to find a helmet… come on, Groundhog, you must have put some in here somewhere…’ I thought as I started to search along the walls.
My search was brutally interrupted by one of the other black bunnies. His paw shot out, pulling me up by the back of my suit and turning me to face him. I kicked him hard in the face, only to hear a slight crack, followed by a sharp pain in my big toe. The bunny appeared unscathed by the attack. It chuckled, smirking slightly.
“It appears that you like breaking bones, biped. Perhaps I can help you with that endeavor.”
He dropped me, pinning me face down to the ground with one foot. He was now crouched down next to me, which gave him an unfortunate advantage- we were behind a large console, out of sight from most of the Resistance. The bunny grabbed my left arm with both paws, an evil grin on his face. I couldn’t tear my eyes away from his face as he slowly, painfully, began to break my arm. It was slow torture. Finally there was a loud crack and white hot pain shot through my arm. I screamed in agony. I could hear the bunny laughing as my vision was clouded by a gray haze. I felt the bunny step hard on my injured foot, felt the pain shoot through me, and then I blacked out.
Suddenly my eyes fluttered open. Where am I? I was at the battle, something hit me in the head…
I must be in a bunny ship, and In the name of all things wung what is that annoying ticking sound?? Before I could protest a bunny grabbed me and pushed me through a door and inside to another ship A resistance ship!
The ticking sound seemed to follow me. Then reality hit. The sound was coming from under my jacket.
I briskly unzipped my jacket and didn’t like what I saw. Over my White Sox jersey there was a black vest with control panels, wires, and what scared me the most… A timer.
A bomb, that was why they let me go, so the resistance would be exploded.
Not a happy thought. I was about to take off the vest and throw it out the window when two bunnies jumped on me ,the two huge-looking bunnies sat on my back while another pulled up on my chin sending what felt like white hot sparks of pain up my wind-pipe.
Then Tokyo grabbed a small bunny by the ears and wacked it into the one pulling on my chin . (insert name here) swiftly decapitated the two sitting on my back. I quickly ripped off the bomb. “Too late ,” Tokyo squeaked.
I looked at the bomb, the timer said ….. zero…
((185-Eegh. In general-For the sake of being able to do things, I’m assuming that the white rinse has worn off and everybody is mobile again.))
Earthgirl, Juliet and I ran into the ship. We started hacking bunnies left and right, trying to get to William. “Armada! Earthgirl!” someone shouted. I looked over. The person who the shout appeared to have come from was someone I had never seen before, but she appeared to be on our side, as she was handcuffed and had several bunnies converging on her. “Keep going for William!” I shouted to Earthgirl and Juliet, then headed toward the girl. I chopped the heads off the bunnies and bent down beside the girl, trying to pick the lock on her handcuffs. “Who the cake are you?” I asked conversationally, trying to focus on the keyhole to the handcuffs and keep a lookout behind me at the same time, no easy task. “I’m Syllabub,” the girl said. “I kind of fell out of the sky. Hurry up with the handcuffs, please–WATCH OUT! I whirled around and neatly decapitated a bunny who had been sneaking up on me from behind. “Thanks for that,” I said to Syllabub, opening her handcuffs and helping her to her feet. “Let’s go get William.”
I handed her a sword- not a lightsaber, just the good old-fashioned kind- and we set to making a path to William. Again. But before we were anywhere remotely near him, I noticed Kittymine slumped on the floor with a black bunny standing over her and one arm at a funny angle. I gave up the idea of getting to William. Earthgirl and Juliet would have to handle him. I pointed Kittymine out to Syllabub, and we ran towards her. The bunny appeared to be too busy gloating to notice us, and I ran it through from behind. I knelt down by Kittymine and shook her, but she seemed to be unconscious, as well as having several broken bones. “Help me carry her!” I shouted to Syllabub, and between us we managed to take her into a corner relatively out of the fighting. Then we ran back into the melee.
((does it count as a double post if you’re writing from two different people’s perspective? I’m not sure.))
I ran into the ship along with Earthgirl and Armada. As we headed for the black bunny who was evidently William, I hoped that I would be the one who would get to kill him. I had a personal grudge against William– not that everyone else didn’t. Armada shouted unexpectedly for us to keep going and dived into the fight away from us. Earthgirl and I continued going towards William. We were almost there when someone- I didn’t know their name but they looked vaguely familiar- shouted “Don’t attack William! Kokonilly’s inside him!” “What the cake are you TALKING about???” I shouted. “She was absorbed by him!” shouted the person. “He has this weird thing where if you try to kill him with an energy weapon, he just takes the energy to strenghthen himself, and Nilly jumped on his back and now she’s inside him!”
I was beginning to think this was not going to be a typical battle. But at least I could fight other bunnies.I shrugged and started for another clump of furiously fighting but outnumbered bloggers. They could definitely use some help.
((Oh cake. I just saw RK’s comment. Now what???))
(((189- Theres a big explosion?)))
((190- Why not? We tend to be very fond of our big explosions.))
Kind of bloody-Beware
There was a yell of rage as someone leapt over me and began going head to head with William. I heard Kokonilly scream, and then there was a strange sucking noise very familiar to me. ‘Oh,no’, I said to myself. ‘She’s gone inside of him.’ I opened my eyes, knowing that I had to help her. Instead, I saw Aaron battling the still-standing William with alll the force he could muster,rage coarsing through his grey eyes like pulses of renewed energy. He was very incensed, and seemed to be talking to William as the battled, green lightsaber on red lightsaber. “You…will…never…hurt…anyone…AGAIN…you dumb RABBIT!” He took a forceful swing at William and missed by inches. “No…” I moaned. “She’s in there…Don’t…”. But he couldn’t hear me. Kokonilly seemed to be weakening him slowly from the inside, but I knew if anyone were to finish William and not get out in time, she would be gone as well. I sat up on my knees, looking for any means of support to help me up. Kittymine and Armada were freeing and rescuing Syllabub, Juliet and Earthgirl were fighting very close by, obviously with the idea to reach William, and the others were all fighting and taking down nameless bunnies. My back was throbbing harder still. I saw that William’s feet had claws, and they were red with blood:my blood. I got to my feet,shakily, moaning in pain, and drew my lightsaber from my pocket. It glowed blue, and pulsed gently as I went to stand beside Aaron.
“Your time is up, pucey”, I said, making a valiant stab at humiliation. Then, I whispered to Aaron: “I’m fine. Get out of here, go help the others.”
“I’m not leaving you”, he replied.
“How sweet”, hissed William in a low voice.”Young love.” Then, with a sharp bunny cry, he lunged forward and took a stab at me.
“No!” I cried, trying to get ahold of William. But he shook me off like I was a flea and went for Agrrfishi. Her eyes widened in fear as the light saber narrowly missed her.
It was like all my nightmares coming true.
Aaron was trying to fend off William. Bunnies were everywhere.
I ran to Agrrfishi.
“Stay still….I’ll try to bandage your wounds…” I stammered. But there were too many wounds to count.
I realized with a jolt that if William died, I would probably die as well. Horrified, I yelled, “SLOW DEATH TO WILLIAM! NOT IMMEDIATE! GIVE ME TIME TO GET OUTTA HERE!” Agrrrfishi heard me, I think, but she had just been stabbed by William. A few others heard me as well, but I was too confused to hear what they said. I turned my confusion to power as I started hacking away at him again.
((190-I guess. Although not too many people seem to be taking notice of your post. Do we go through with it or not?))
((195) Sure! ))
((Um, Aggie? I’m unconscious with a broken foot and a broken arm, so I can’t really be helping anyone right now.))
I gasped leaning my head out of the way as William missed by inches. I fell to the ground, stunned. Aaron reached down for me, but then William began to attack again. I stayed where I was, heart pounding wildly against my ribs. An unfamiliar face greted my eyes.
“My name’s Zonka”, said the face. “Here, i’ll try to bandage your wounds.” I shook my head no. “Got to help him…” I said. “Got to get up…”
“Oh,no,you don’t”, the face replied. “You need rest.”
“Rest?” I cried. “Look around! They can’t do it on their own, I have to help!” I got to my feet, grabbing my lightsaber which had fallen just feet from me. “Thanks for trying, anyway”, I said to Zonka. “Now let’s go kick some cottontail.” Zonka ran off into the midst of the fighters. I went back to William, he and Aaron were heas to head in battle once again. “LEAVE HIM ALONE!” I screamed, pushing Aaron out of the way of what could have been a deadly blow. He fell to the floor,stunned. William and I began circling one another.
“You just don’t know when to give up the fiight, do you?” he snarled at me, teeth bared.
“I would say the same to you, too, pucey menace”, I replied.
“It’s OVER!” he yelled. “My bunnies are stronger than you bipeds. You can’t win!”
“Look around you”, I said. “Our fighters have defeated half of yours. You’re only kidding yourself.”
“Myself?” he said. “Who’s kidding who here? I’m stronger than you could ever hope to be!”
“Who’s kidding WHOM”, I replied, “and it’s you who’s dead bunny meat.”
((197-I think she meant to say ‘Armada and Syllabub were freeing and rescuing Kittymine’ or ‘Armada was freeing Syllabub and they were both rescuing Kittymine’. I think we need some renewal crystals for you, but Juliet’s the only one with access to any, and she’s all out. I guess we could say that renewal crystals renew themselves.
It doesn’t really look as if the explosion is happening. I don’t care one way or the other, but I’m stuck in the middle until we decide. It seems like right now every post is introducing a new plot twist, and I really don’t know what to do. I feel useless.))
Grim determination shone on Agrrrfishi’s face, and nothing would stop her. I sighed at the state of her wounds, and moved on. I was immediatly caught in a large ball of fur.
“Where do you think you’re going?” a voice cackled. I gulped and punched randomly, arms flailing and finally, a small groan emmitted from the bunny’s mouth. He fell unconcious.I ran aways and nearly tripped over Kittymine.
“Oh dear,” I thought. Her breathing was strangled and shallow. I took to bandaging her foot when Kokonilly cried out.
((199- Sorry, I didn’t see your post when I wrote mine. I’ll write something…))
Armada and Syllabub quickly came over to help Kittymine. As Armada wrapped up her arm, she spotted something out of the corner of her eye.
“Errmmm….guys..” she whispered. “Is it just me, or is there a….. bomb there??” Syllabub and I slowly turned around.
Admist all the trouble, a small mechanism gleamed. Numbers flashed………6……5……4….
I gulped.
((Oh, what the heck. I’m gonna go help Kittymine. Armada/Juliet seems to have taken the role of general-injured-person-rescuer. And I’m assuming that the explosion isn’t happening. Maybe RK manages to jam the timer at the last second or something.))
Armada ran towards me. “Kittymine needs help!” she said. “Do you have any of those crystal things?” I sighed. I really didn’t want to become a healer. I was much better at fighting. But we needed everyone for this battle, and injured people were in a lot of danger now. I’d already been through this with Kokonilly. “Who?” I asked. “Where?” “Kittymine! Over there!” Armada shouted and pointed. I looked. The person in question already had someone bandaging her, but they appeared to be distracted. They suddenly straightened up and ran toward William. I sighed, whacked the heads off a couple of bunnies, and ran towards the girl. She was unconscious, and her arm and foot were both at funny angles. I dumped a few crystals in her mouth- this was not the time to be fastidious- and waited, fighting off any bunnies who tried to get to her. After a few seconds her eyelids fluttered and she moaned.
“Wha-” “It’s okay,” I said, trying to sound soothing. “You’re being healed.” The girl shook her head suddenly and sat up. “What happened? I feel all weird.” “I gave you some renewal crystals. You’re healed.” The girl looked surprised, but shrugged and picked up her sword. “Thanks.” She said, and ran off.
I stood looking after her. ‘I feel all weird’… Nobody who had been healed by renewal crystals had ever said that they felt ‘all weird’ afterwards…including me. You felt good after a healing, not weird. Maybe that was what she had meant. I shrugged and turned back to the fight-or tried to. A paw grabbed my shoulder suddenly and a familiar voice sounded in my ears.
“So, little runaway. We meet again.”
((The bunny that the paw and the voice belong to is not William. It”s one of his officers. Prepare to be unmystified about Juliet.))
((Oh, CAKE. I keep writing one post too late. Ummm….Now what?))
I rolled out of the way of a blow from William. Aaron vaguely attempted to sit up, but I shoved him back down. “Go save Agrrrfishi. I’ll deal with William.” William turned back to me.
“Commander,” he said with a condescending sneer. “We meet again.”
I shot him in the face. “That we do.”
William fell temporarily, and I sprang over him, brushing a small torrent of relentlessly flowing blood off my face. William leaped up, intending to follow, but not fast enough. I seized Aaron again as the timer clicked lower. Unfortunately, Aaron was quite a bit heavier than I’d thought, but I still managed to push him into the captain’s room on the pod–and into the bombproof compartment.
Seeing Zinc standing just outside, I grabbed her and pulled her in.
“We have to get everyone in here!” She and I immediately burst out…
three seconds.
“Sucks.”
I started screaming my head off. William covered his ears in pain.
((Someone, elaborate, PLEASE.))
((Okay, ignore post 202. We can add the same general idea later. So the explosion IS happening. Okey-dokey, here we go.))
“Help me carry Kittymine!” I shouted at Syllabub and Zonka, who both appeared to be in a state of shock. “Oh… right.” We hoisted her up and ran towards the bombproof compartment. When we were inside, I dropped Kittymine. “We have to get everyone in here!” shouted ZVX, who was basically doing the same thing with Aaron. We ran out of the compartment and I looked around frantically. The timer was still going. I had a suicidal idea. I ran towards the bomb, ignoring everyone’s shouting, and grabbed it. Then I sprinted for the Back Door. As I ran I looked down at the timer. 2…….1……. Oh god, I wasn’t going to make it. Time slowed down as the number changed to zero. Then I was at the Back Door and throwing the bomb out- one second too late. I heard a gigantic ‘BOOOOOM’ and everything went black.
((What happened to me?))
(206) She has a broken foot and a broken arm, and you dropped her? If you haven’t just been blown to pieces, you might consider signing up for remedial first-aid training.
((208 – Very true. Very, very, very true.
))
((( This is confusing, and is partly my fault. I might go away for a while after this.))
I ran away from where ZVX and William were standing, after everyone into the bomb-proof compartment. Aaron was already there. I knelt beside him. “You’ll be all right”, I muttered. “I don’t think you’ve been done much damage.” Then, I hurried to help Kittymine into the compartment. I sat down quickly, shielding my head. I felt Aaron put his arm around me. There was a dead silence, and then a terrible BOOM as the bomb exploded. I screamed. Kokonilly screamed. Lucy and Emmy screamed. Stassi screamed. EVERYBODY screamed. I knew we were never going to live to share milkshakes back on earth. I doubted we would even make it to safety.
For what was perhaps the fifteenth time that day, I was once again found wrong.
I kept screaming my head off as the bomb exploded. William collapsed on the ground, motionless.
((I’m assuming that the renewal crystals scene never happened, judging by the fact that Armada said to ignore post 202, and the fact that I’m still being carried around by bloggers. And by the way, dropping me hurt. Or at least it will when I wake up.))
((Wow, a LOT has happened. 199-I feel the same way!))
I helped Armanda carry Kittymine away into the bomb-proof compartmant. Then, without warning, she ran towards the bomb, and I could tell that she was going to try to get it as far away as possible. Despite me screaming after her to “DROP THE BOMB!!!!!” she didn’t even glance back. I rean after her and could tell that she wasn’t going to make it. “NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!” I sreamed, and the force of the exploding bomb knocked me back into a group of awaiting bunnies. I slashed my sword with as much of my learned skill as possible, considering that I probably had broken a bone somewhere. I saw ears and limbs go flying, and before I had even regained some thought process, I realized that I had slain all of the remaining bunnies. With a look of disbelief on my dirt-streaked face, I wobbled back to the bomb-proof compartment. Just before I was about to fall, someone caught me, and I blacked out.
((Sorry if there are any mis-spellings, it’s dark in here and I never bothered to turn on the light.))
I looked at the timer. 1. I knew that this was the time that the Resistance was ended.
The timer flashed.
Zero.
The bomb raged through the pod, everything blew to pieces, including the captain’s chamber. Except the bombproof container. It fell below me, plunging earthward. It fell at a significantly faster rate, due to its weight.
I knew that I had only seconds to live.
Baylee got there in time. The ship had blown to pieces. She zoomed downwards, and caught the bomb proof container in the net that had extended when she had pressed a button, and flew around. She noticed someone who was just about to hit the ground. She jerked the joystick, flying straight down, and the nano second she was about to hit the ground, she pulled back, catching whoever it was. “Woah! I wonder how you survived!”
((208-Well, it was either drop her or have her be exploded in the next three seconds. Sorry Kittymine, I guess Juliet can renew you, seeing as she hasn’t already. I am also confused. But at least William is gone! (?)
Is there any possible way that I might still be alive? My intention wasn’t to kill myself, it was to save everybody else. Since that didn’t work quite the way I wanted it to, it would be nice if I didn’t die in vain. Unless everyone else is doing the same. That would be a sad way to end the Ultimate Battle. Kind of a waste, too.))
((Ah, what the heck. I’m taking charge of myself. The person who Beatlesrockr rescued is me, okay? And if someone else already posted with another idea, just zap this post. It’s easier to not have to figure out which posts to ignore.))
I felt that sickening falling sensation in the pit of my stomach as we plummeted away from the ship. I screamed and screamed, not caring about anything but the fact that I wasn’t going to live. I buried my face further into Aaron’s chest, not wanting to be able to see my untimely death.
We stopped almost immediately after this thought crossed my mind. I still clung to Aaron, but now we were hovering somehwere in space. What could have stopped our fall? There was something strange about the situation, something that had to have to do with the fact the we were slowly being lifted into the air. I looked upwards into the fully impending darkness.
((Okay, our ship was blasted apart- but that doesn’t mean anyone has to die, for Pete’s sake! We could have some injured people, okay, but no deaths other than bunny ones. Oh, and Kokonilly- are you out of William yet?))
((Whoa. This is confusing. But I can’t really do anything since I am unconcious and probably will awake with a bad concussion.))
((Wow. A lot happens in a day.)) I had Leafy’s hand, and we plummeted. We screamed, knowing that it was the last sound we would ever make. I thought, Why do best friends always die together? Suddenly, Leafy pulled somethings out of her pocket. She held them up for me me to see. I screamed, “How will two shirts and some rope help us?!” She rolled her eyes, and starting tying the shirts to the rope. “Are you making a parachute?! Couldn’t you have had one already?!” “This is mine! Use your umbrella!” she yelled. “You have it, right?” I nodded, and pulled it out. It slowed my fall to death somewhat, and we plummmeted down a bit slower, but not much.
Suddenly, there was a loud thunk as our compartment hit the floor of what seemed to be a solid surface-perhaps, even, the floor of a ship. I lifted my head. A clang greeted my ears, and then the hard metal door of our bombproof compartment fell away. A familiar face appeared in the empty rectangular space where the door had been.
“Hello all!” said Baylee, smiling down at us. “Welcome aboard!” Then, her smile faded to a disbelieving frown. “W-where’s ZVX? And Armada?” I looked around the compartment. Baylee was right.
“Oh, wungs…” I breathed, feeling a striking pain in my stomach. Of all the dirt and sweat-stained faces that looked back at me, none belonged to ZVX or Armada. I felt a tear running down my cheek.
“We’ve got to do something!” declared Kittymine, who sat up despite her weak state. “We can’t just leave them!”
“But…the ship’s gone!” said Kokonilly.
“I’ll steer around and see if I can spot them”, said Baylee.
“I’ll help”, I volunteered, rushing out of the box. Baylee and I made our way to the captain’s chamber. We sped as fast as we could downward, following the remains of the ship. Out of the dark blob of twisted metal, I spotted a familiar face. “ZVX!” I shouted. He clung to the side panel of the remains of the captain’s room, face starined and eyes shut. Baylee swooped down, reaching out the net. She caught him just as his hand slipped from the metal and was about to fall into oblivion.
((Woah, there’s a lot happening.))
I jolted upwards, gasping.
“What’s happening?” I muttered. I scrambled up and ran over to Agrrfishi and Baylee. Their faces were drawn with worry and they pered out into the sky, searching.
“What……who?” I asked.
“Armada.” they said. Grief overcame me and soon I was sobbing.
“She had the bomb…,” I sputtered.
Baylee and Agrrfishi looked at each other.
“Maybe……..”
“No.” a voice said.
Syllabub staggered up. She tried to stand, but fell down to her knees.
“No,” she said again.
((Oh, great. Thanks, Aggie. So I’m unconscious, probably badly hurt, AND dropping two hundred miles an hour towards the ground. Ooookay. I’m going to have trouble getting out of this one. I’d like to do something, but somehow I don’t think I’m going to wake up in the forty seconds before I become a wet spot on the ground. Somebody help me, PLEASE!!!!!))
I was hurting all over. I was starting to awake and I heard sobbing. “Armanda, she had the bomb” I heard. But I remembered seeing her caught in a….net?….before I blacked out. “No,” I staggered upwards, but collapsed again. “No,” and I felt concisousness slipping away again. I just hoped someone could revive me so I could tell them Armanda wasn’t dead…..
((225-Lucky for you, you’re in space. There is no ground. Don’t worry, we’ll get you out of this.))
((Thank you, Syllabub! Um, a net? Our net or a bunny net? I just need to know so I can post something.))
((227-Um, if we’re in space, then why are Zinc and Leafy ‘plummeting downward’ ? I’m not too sure about the laws of physics in this world… Sorry for double posting, I keep seeing the stuff that people write after I hit the ‘Submit’ button. That’s why my comments might look a little out of sync.))
(( I’m a little confused, too…))
((228-Didn’t you say that that you would be the one that got caught in Baylee’s net? If not, well, lets just say that….ummmm….someone (any takers?) caught you.
Oh, cake, I just realized that Kokonilly is probably still trapped in William…….someone do something! I would if I could.))
((231-No, she got out and is on Baylee’s ship with us.))
((223- I’m still unconscious! I can’t say anything. ‘Cept maybe groan a bit. In fact, speaking of groaning…))
*groans a bit* *starts to thrash around* (someone will have to hold me down for a sec since thrashing around with broken bones is not good. I also suspect that I have a slight fever.)
((Sheesh, people! I leave for a sleepover for ONE NIGHT and another hundred posts pop up!
))
((Let’s just say the blast knocked me out of William.))
I stood up. My knees were shaky and I was probably hyperventilating.
((It would be helpful if someone could do something to revive me in a way so that I could be of some help. I’m getting kind of bored being knocked out.))
Baylee finally remembered Armada had been caught in her net, and was probably still there. “DANG THIS SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS!” she yelled. She flipped a purple switch to raise the net, and hit a green button. Armada was lifted, in the net, through the door of the pad. She was unconscious, and had a huge gash on her leg. “Ok, everyone is here now, right?”
(( Zoufled Verbil Xerix here to clear a few things up. Syllabub- if you had studied the art of unconsciousness, you would notice that you will wake up any minute now, if we want to be real.
Kokonilly- it would make things a lot simpler if we could just say you’re out of William. Armada is presumed dead, and I’m not in very much of a good position, Kittymine has fever and broken bones, Syllabub’s out…we’re in a mess, so let’s just say “Kokonilly escaped William.”))
I clung on to the lump of metal. I was planning, probably in vain, to leap from the ball of metal in the instant it landed, and hit the ground at a slower speed, therefore giving me a chance at life.
This is insane, I thought, as the air whipped past my face. And interesting too…you fool! I berated myself. You’re falling to your death and you’re interested in something? Idiot.
I saw a bunny pod hovering above, looking, it appeared, at the fact that a human was sailing through the air on a piece of melted Pietanium. I almost hoped they would kill me before I hit the ground, it might be easier.
A grim smile curled around my lips. I was stronger than that. I wouldn’t let them defeat me, although jumping wasn’t the best bet either; it would be hard, dangerous, and most likely not destined to succeed.
((237 – I know I’m out of William. I said that in a previous post.))
I checked myself. I appeared to be fine. I glanced over everybody. Syllabub was waking up, but Kittymine looked severely injured.
((231/236-I did say that originally, Syllabub, but there was a lot of confusion after that and I wasn’t sure whether it was happening or not. Thank you VERY MUCH, Beatlesrockr! I am grateful! 237-Er, ZVX, you’ve already been rescued by Beatlesrockr. See post 223.))
*has been lost for 200 posts*
((Can someone re-interpose AvalonGirl and Serafina into the story? I’m just so lost..))
((240-I think a lot of people are lost. I know I am. I think we’re assuming that everyone who isn’t specified otherwise is in Beatlsrockr’s pod (yes, the same kind of pod which only seats five people. We’re bending the laws of physics a lot here.
). So you can say you were there the whole time, which you were, of course.
I think that only a few people have been posting here lately. I need to go advertise on the Random thread.))
((Ok, than lets make it a ship! Than we wouldn’t be bending the laws of physics, though we usually do anyway on here.))
239- oh right. I was a bit behind the times. Scratch that.
YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO KILL ME FOR THIS POST.
We need a plot twist. I don’t mean kill someone, but just something to spice it up a bit. Very few people are posting parts of any length anymore, and BA is falling apart like an old…um…thread.
Everyone needs to gather together to make long, intelligent posts, that preferably are not a cheap melodrama every time. (I myself have written some of those.) Using other characters in your post makes it seem more real, less self-centered.
Writing class time. We have to get BA together. I’ve noticed that in about thread three, four, and five, it was becoming less RPG-like and more of a RRR thread. Let’s bring that part of BA back to it, instead of meaningless heroism that is rather cheap–cheap melodrama.
Bringing the other humans into the story was brilliant…so was Justin being a traitor, and the trademark crazy pod rides. That’s what makes a story strong; a good plot with plenty of spice, warm but icing over at periods, and spiking into a raging battle scene.
Let’s try that.
I’m not dissing your writing, I’m saying that we don’t have enough posters, at the right time, with the skill to bring a dull part back up from the lows. Practice, my friends.
Editing BA would be a good idea. When it’s finished, I plan to compile everything into a somewhat coherent story. BA is a thriller, if we put it together, edited it, and had the GAPAs make a new thread for it. Then all the MBers could read it, review it, and voice their opinions.
I know what you’re going to say: “he wants it to be an RRR.” No, I don’t want it to be an RRR, I want it to be an RPG–albeit a more organized one.
243-I definitely agree. I think we should either put in some other plot twist or end it. I mean, we’ve just had the final battle with William, and he’s either blown up or rethinking his tactics. We’ve kind of been repeating the same idea over and over, and there’s only so many times you can do that without it getting boring.
I think that the only difference between an RRR and an RPG is that an RPG is told from the viewpoints of many different people, most of which have the names of bloggers.
My mom has been asking to read this (not because she thinks it’s inappropriate or anything, she’s just interested in seeing what it’s about) and I think it would be nice to have the story in a form that’s not as confusing to read. The last part of the story has a lot of conflicting plots and posts that you have to ignore to make any sense out of it.
So, basically, I agree with you entirely.
((243- Why not? *big fat post of serious stuff* Leafy and I will continue the Fred and George thing. If anyone is going to read this, I’ll add a small bit of humor. You okay with that?))
“Hey, Zinc! There’s Baylee’s ship!” Leafy called out to me. I saw it, and frantically started waving.
Well, it’s kinda hard to fix the conflicting plots, we have no idea what someone will write next, unless it’s already up. A plot twist. Hm….
All of a sudden, the ship lurched, and everyone fell to one side of the ship. “Woah! What was that?” Armada said in a sleepy voice. “Finally. We’ve been waiting for you to wake up, sleeping beauty!” Baylee said in a sarcastic tone. The ship lurched again. She ran to the control panels. “The joystick is moving itself!” She yelled as she wrestled with it. All of a sudden, the ship shot straight up. “Everyone, HOLD ON TO SOMETHING!” ZVX yelled as we went shooting out of this world, literally. “What’s happening?” Aaron asked. “The ships system was prolly hacked, we’re being controlled, I have to get to the ship’s back room, it’s the only way to stop it!” Baylee yelled above the noise of things crashing into the walls in the Captains quarters. “But…” she said slowly.
“But what?” Aaron asked in an annoyed tone.
“The only way to get to the stinkin’ back room is climbing onto the roof, and getting to the belly of the ship without falling off! And with this ship going straight up, THAT’D BE IMPOSSIBLE!” Everyone groaned. “So I guess, we’ll just have to sit back, and enjoy the ride.”
A few minutes later, they passed the moon. “Woah! How fast are we actually going?” Syllabub asked. “Much faster than the speed of a regular rocket, I can tell you that.” Baylee told her. They seemed to be going faster with every passing minute. “And now, much faster than the speed of light,” everyone stared at her like she was crazy. “What? We bend the laws of physics at least daily.” Kokonilly was at the control panels, pressing every button possible to get them to stop. So far, the only buttons that actually worked was the air conditioning, the light switch, and the radio. AvalonGirl was looking out the windows at the planets and moons we were passing, while Serefina was sitting there, eating what seemed to be the last fries ever to be on the face of the Earth.
((246-Whoops, sorry, how was that for a plot twister? DANG conflicting plots again! Lets just say, before they went off into space, they picked up Zinc and Leafy.))
((Oh good. I was sick of being lonely in space.)) Randomly, I got out some roller skates, and laced them on. Just as I was about to get up, I rethought my plan and sat back down, blushing. Then I took off the roller skates and sat alternately singing Sara Bareilles, KT Tunstall, Spamalot, and Wicked. ((I have thing with singing when I’m bored, scared, or just feel like it. So I’ll be singing a lot.))
I clutched onto the seat with both arms. The G-force hit me like a ton of cement, and I went flying off the seat of my chair. Then, we entered deep space. Everyone floated out of their seats. “Whee!” I exclaimed as I did a double backflip over Leafy’s head. She looked at me strangely. “Of all the times to have fun…”
“There’s no better time!” I cried, grinning broadly. “William is finally dead! We never have to see ear nor cottontail of the pink menace again!”
AvaslonGirl grinned, flaoting next to me. “I guess that is something to celebrate”, she said reasonably.
“HANGONTOSOMETHING!” screamed ZVX. Suddenly, there was a strange hum and then we were shooting thorugh space and time at the very speed of light and sound itself. We were all flung against the back wall.
“Now are you saying ‘whee’?” yelled Kokonilly, who stopped talking and screamed at the top of her lungs as the air waves wildly flipped our ship up and down. Suddenly, everything stopped. We were dead silent. All fell to the floor with an OOMPH, and then there was nothing.
“Take a good look, guys”, said ZVX, staring out the window. “We’re home.”
243-((Nice. It would almost be a FanFic, then, though…maybe collaborating the story posts and posting 5 posts in one big post?))
“HANGONTOSOMETHING!†screamed ZVX. Suddenly, there was a strange hum and then we were shooting through space and time at the very speed of light and sound itself. We were all flung against the back wall.
“Now are you saying ‘whee’?†yelled Kokonilly, who stopped talking and screamed at the top of her lungs as the air waves wildly flipped our ship up and down. Suddenly, everything stopped. We were dead silent. All fell to the floor with an OOMPH, and then there was nothing.
“Take a good look, guysâ€, said ZVX, staring out the window. “We’re home.â€
I silently walked over to stand next to ZVX, followed by Serafina and everyone else. “HEYSTOPPUSHING!” Serafina yelled, and then was vaulted, jumped, and generally treaded over in a main effort to look out the window. “Gerroff…” she managed, which was quite an achievement, seeing as Agrrrfishi was standing on her tiptoes on Serafina’s back!
((WHAT??? Do we have a space station or something? Or are we back on Earth? *is confused, as I have been for the last fifty posts*
I feel like I’m kind of afraid to post because every time I do someone else turns out to have posted something before me that makes my part obsolete and conflicting with the plot. I think I’m going to just lurk for a while, but I’ll be around if you need me. I think the story is kind of winding up anyway (or if it’s not, it should be), so we probably don’t need to work too hard from now on. Introducing a new plot twist at the end of a story isn’t really too good of an idea anyway, so we could just celebrate from now on, I guess.))
((Or not. Never mind.))
((End? BA? NEVER! *shoots head off of random person*))
“Home…?” I murmur. “My home’s underwater!”
((Oh yes, if anyone needs a person to cut off someone’s head, that’s my favorite way of killing people.))
253-We do have to end it SOMETIME. Though maybe not yet. But, since we’ve just accomplished our goal (killing William), now seems kinda like a logical place to stop. Or at least sometime soon.))
((I am feeling as confused as Armanda. I thhink I’ll lurk for a while too, but if the story does keep going, can someone please keep me around? Thanks.))
(( I have an idea for how we can keep the story going.
William’s dead, right? Right. But, how about this cazy idea? What if, before William died, he spawned, and had a daughter/son? This bunny finds out who we are and comes back to earth to get vengeance for himmer’s father’s death.
What do you say? Too crazy? I don’t think we should impose this theory now. Maybe we can end this thread off so that everyone has a good life when they return to earth, and we begin to rebuild the world. Then, we could begin a new thread based off this thread and the idea of William’s having a spawn. Or we could just keep these threads going and not bother with a new one.))
((256- Hmm, I was getting rather proud knowing everything that’s happened on a sixth part long plot. How about, on my unlucky number, part 7, rebuild the world? Because, unlike you normal and not pathetic people, my lucky number is 13, and my unlucky number is 7. And at the end of seven, the spawn comes (I’m voting to call it Tom), and thread seven end with with something like this-))
(((A figure stepped into the light. It was a bunny. The bunny was hauntingly familiaer, but I couldn’t place where’d I’d seen it before. It cackled, and said, “I am ____! I am William’s son/daughter!” I gasped. It cacked once more, and ran, leaving a bomb behind it.)))
((Yes. That was pitiful. Also, I would like if whenever I bonk my head reely hard, I have a bit of amnesia, but about two hours later, I regain my memory.))
((Yeah, we could prolly start rebuilding, Williams son comes along, kills everything, and all that again. Or we could have a totally different adventure, out in the deep reaches of space, OR there could be a greater evil behind William, a much more powerful, evil, gory, thing. That would be interesting. And than, in the end, we all die. Every living thing in the entire universe dies. And than, it starts, all over. I like stories where the bad guys win sometimes, it’s, well, refreshing, but here, neither side wins, and that’s, even more refreshing. So yeah. Instead of repeating the same thing over and over again, the OMG it’s William! Lets kill him! *war* William seemingly dies, he comes back, war again, and then now, he finally dies, but his son comes along, there’s war, he seemingly dies, he comes back, and so on.
))
((I dunno guys- we really do have to end this sometime. We’re already on 6 parts, and the GAPA’s may decide to ignore our request for more parts. There is a point at which adding more and more takes away from the RPG- makes it a ridiculous run on. I suggest we get back to earth (it appears that we’re doing that now), get all the MBers healed and such, clean up the giant HPB mess that William made, and restore the world to normalcy. Once everything has calmed down a bit, we can either end the thread or do the Son of William idea. We can’t forget about the rest of Earth- the point of the Resistance is to rid the world of the bunnies for the sake of everyone, not just us.))
((BA end?! NEVER!!!! I want a new RPG thread. If we get one, my character will have multiple personalities!))
((I have an idea for an RPG thread. However, it is rather bizzare and will take a while to explain. If everyone wants to continue BA, then you may do so. But personally, I think the BA thread should end with the death of William)).
I agree. At least take a tea break.
(((Anyone care to add a summary? My computer had a virus so I couldn’t get on)))
261- could we go slower with yours? I always have to drop these due to homework.
264- Sure. I’ll try.
((Then, if we ever do want to return, we could make a thread about re-building Earth
))
RANT
If we kill BA, what would we have in its place? BA has become a unique place…I would continue BA just as a one-person thing if everyone else wants to abandon it. The GAPAs will hopefully grant us a new thread when the time comes. Please guys, I’ve been working on BA since post 12 on the first thread. Don’t let something we’ve all worked hard to make worthwhile reading. BA is a refuge for all of us who like the grittier writing threads. All of the bloggers that were here in the beginning have more or less left. Except me. We can’t close BA. It should only end when no one is there to continue it.
Beatlesrockr- thank you. William no longer has the same threat as he did in say, thread two. We can resurrect BA with a new character that will be more evil than William. I’ll introduce that character in the next post.
Kittymine- Well, ending it would be a bit hard, as I don’t intend to live, but there’s still a few things I can add before I die. If I die.
267-That was motivating. I’m in for more BA!!! (Even though I just started.)
((267- I’m with ya. Now I will post. Oh, if William died, will all the influenced people come out of their trances?))
I stared at the blue surface of the ocean below us, wondering if we could rebuild the human race. I saw a whale blow, and I felt a sudden rush of hope. Things were going to get better, little by little, and there would be peace.
267- Fine, but count me out. If William’s dead, my work here is done.
New RPG?
((270- Something’s wrong with you. Bonk your head lately?))
271- Yes, but one with rules as to what sort of characters and plot points are allowed. No Titanians, Sith Lords or genetically-engineered wizards popping out of the blue.
273- yes! What was with that?
273- Vampires are allowed? The ones that don’t eat human?
273-
Why!?!
275- Depends on what sort of RPG it is. If it’s dark fantasy, absolutely. If it’s a space opera, no caking way.
276- Because you can do that kind of stuff on Muse Academy RPG and World of Piecraft, that’s why. And I’m tired of all the RPGs turning into crazy random nightmares.
277- Space opera hmmmm…
277- Hrm? I usually don’t RPG me feeding, I just like having fangs and having to resist a temptation. And what the larg is a space opera?
Enough of this. Everyone who wants to start something fresh and new that DOESN’T contain vampires, wizards, Titanians, and Star Wars, come with me. Everyone who wants to continue the BA adventures, stay here.
((Its a dark fantasy, Dr. Canix. Like BA. I hope so…))
((I am going to write a draft for Xeer, William’s son.))
DRAFT:
The pod’s occupants looked over the edge.
“It’s Marinaras Trench all right,” pointed out Kittymine. “Home? Not exactly. Maybe landing base…”
“We should go, we don’t know what could be following us.” I said. “I’m personally ready to go have a cup of tea and sit on a couch.”
I maneuvered the pod through the water into the landing chamber. I’d always thought the landing chamber gave me a bit of queasiness. The spiraling lines of electricity that kept the water’s gravity pulling too hard for the water to enter the chamber. We climbed out, peering around.
“What is this?” Asked Zonka.
“The landing chamber,” I said, remembering Zonka had never seen it. “I remember programming this place with Groundhog and POSOC. That took ages. But let’s get inside…”
♦ ♦ ♦
Three things happened at once.
We entered the dark common room.
A black bunny sprang out.
The bunny unsheathed two black Samurai swords from its back.
“I am Xeer.” the bunny said. “You have acted most…unpleasantly…you must pay for your actions…”
“How?” I said.
“Blood.”
281- Wait, wait!! Where are you going? Take me with you!!
((281- *mumblegrumble* I personally LIKE being a vampire. I’m staying HERE, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
282- I’ll continue!))
I shook my head. Did he say BLOOD? I thought. Vampires don’t HAVE blood! “Um, Xeer? I’m a vampire. I don’t have blood of my own. That’s why my species drink it.” I said hesitantly. He glared at me. I felt a white hot pain course through my empty veins. I looked closer at the eyes. There, on the rims, were lasers! I sweated. I was not about to give him the satisfaction of hearing my scream. I didn’t drop to the floor, writhing in pain, I just stood there biting my nails like mad.
((Is that okay if he has lasers that cause pain on the rims of his eyes? It intimidates people because they think it’s magic, but it’s all technology.))
281- WHERE? -follows IBCF-
((*stays*))
I sighed, It was nice to be on land even though it wasn’t home.
(((I’m staying!)))
For those of you who are looking for an alternative, we’ve opened a thread for discussing the options.
((287- Xeer, the son of William, is currently in the base threaening us. And I’m not a vampire, so I just rolled my eyes and coughed instead of that first sentence.))
(( I didn’t mean RIGHT NOW! Aren’t we even going to TRY and rebuild earth first???))
By the way, I’m definetly staying. You could not in a million years ever make me leave dear old BA.
I shall not abandon thee.
((I will stay, seeing as this thread is really the only one I post on- I don’t have time for a bunch of threads. ZVX, I like your Draft in post 282, but I have a small question on it.
Are William’s “spawnlings” at adulthood the minute they are created or something? Thats the only way that Xeer could get to the Trench that fast. Don’t you think Xeer should start out as a younger bunny and come for revenge after we clean up Earth?))
((I have an idea that might work for everyone. How ’bout if we end this particular plot, edit or not edit the story, and open a new thread with the same idea that’s set right after this story ends.
And that way the plot doesn’t keep running on and on, the people who want to stop can stop, the people who want BA to keep going forever get their wish (or at least can keep going for now) and hopefully everyone is happy What do you guys think?))
((293- That’s what I origionally suggested, but seemingly there was no liking taken to the idea. However, I’d be fine with this. We just need a new name for it. I thought something like, “Son of the Bunny Apocalypse”, and similar.))
((Nooo…BA can’t end! It is my LIFE! ….Yeah. I’m sad. I know. But, if we wanted to be COMPLETELY crazy, we could write about our character’s children and the bunnies making a comeback after 30 years…that would be COOL!
*insert random marriage comment here*))
((Whaaa? William has a son?!?!?! Meh. It’s becoming far too Star Wars-y. I liked it better before.
293 – I like that idea.
I seriously have issues with the idea of William having offspring.))
((296- I kinda agree with you. I mean, the point of Bunny Apocalypse was to get rid of the bunnies ruling the world- namely William, since he was heading the whole thing. But I do kinda like ZVX’s draft. So I say we go with Armada and Aggie’s idea (post 293). Why don’t we clean up the bunny mess on Earth for now? I repeat: We can’t forget about the rest of Earth- the point of the Resistance is to rid the world of the bunnies for the sake of everyone, not just us.))
((Me like my completely crazy idea. Me cakes people randomly.
296.-…NO OFFSPRING. NEVER. EVER.
))
((297- I officialy make a request for a new BA thread, only this one is the sequel. However, we should keep this thread open for a little while in case people get confused. Call it what you want. I still like “Son of the Apocalypse”, but whatever you GAPAS like is fine with me.
I love BA, it’s my favorite thread on the blog, but I do think that to keep it going we need to stick with new ideas. We can’t just have it end when William dies. We need to keep it alive, and the only way you can keep life is by another generation So…does the BA sequel begin now?))
((298- Me like AvalonGirl idea. Me want to combine with Kittymine idea. D-uh…
))
((Why we talk like cavemen? Me confuzzled.))
((It fun.))
(( So we’ll make a new BA sequel now? I like AvalonGirl’s idea and Kittymine’s idea. We can do both, yes? By the time our kids grow up, they should be about the same age as we were when we fought William. By time we come back to BA, earth is cleaned up mostly and many have forgotten about the bunnies. Then, the bunny race makes a mysterious comeback to attack the earth with Xeer as their leader. Our kids band together to form the New Resistance, and move to defeat the bunny race once and for all.))
((303-That sounds good. Enough differences in the plotline so that it’s not an exact replay of BA. But if our kids are the ones in the story, does that make it into an RRR? Or do we get to roleplay our own children? That would be cool, but somewhat confusing.))
((292- Thank you, Kittymine. Yes, he should be a teenager right now, because William has been raising him for years. He’s not an adult bunny, though, and won’t be able to use his full power until he turns 17. then we bipeds will have to kick his puce cottontail HARD.
“The pod’s occupants looked over the edge.
“It’s Marinaras Trench all right,†pointed out Kittymine. “Home? Not exactly. Maybe landing base…â€
“We should go, we don’t know what could be following us.†I said. “I’m personally ready to go have a cup of tea and sit on a couch.â€

Three things happened at once.
We entered the dark common room.
A black bunny sprang out.
The bunny unsheathed two black Samurai swords from its back.
“I am Xeer.†the bunny said. “You have acted most…unpleasantly…you must pay for your actions…â€
“How?†I said.
“Blood.†”
I think that Xeer should appear on the next thread. Older. Right now, just because he’s threatening us, doesn’t mean he’s mature. William’s spawnling won’t be able to fight, but h can still command an army.
Everyone agree to “the Revenge of Xeer?”))
((305-Sure. But I do think that we should DEFEAT Xeer in this battle. Not kill him, but defeat him so he goes running back into the shadows. That way, he has a personal grudge against us, and in the next thread he can appear to our kids and be like… *tries to resist saying this* *fails* “My name is Xeer. Your parents killed my father. Prepare to die.”
Well, something like that, anyway. And since we’re trying to wrap this thread up, let’s not make the battle TOO long. I mean, we don’t have to just defeat Xeer immediately, but let’s not take so much time that we need another thread to finish the story.))
We followed each other into the landing chamber. ZVX headed us, gun at the ready in case of anything left over from the bunnies and their attack. I was ravaged by feelings both of elation and fright at once more being back on earth. Soon, I might even be home.
The room was a wreck. Every panel, every piece of technology had been stolen or destroyed. The monitors, screens and dials were covered in a thick black layer of gun dust, and none of them seemed to work. There was no power in this room anymore. Chairs and papers lay scattered around the floor, all shredded or in pieces. My favorite chair had a large blaster shot through the middle of the upholstry.
But that was not all that was wrong. I could sense a presence in the room along with us. I looked around. “ZVX…?”, I muttered. Then, a black bunny stepped from the shadows clouding the doorway.
The bunny pulled two swords from his back.
“I am Xeer.†the bunny said. “You have acted most…unpleasantly…you must pay for your actions…â€
“How?†IZVX asked..
“Blood.â€
I inwardly gasped. Leafy looked quite troubled. I didn’t want to admit it, but I was scared. Very scared. I fingered my sword, ready to strike at any moment. Xeer seemed to notice that.
I muttered a curse under my breath.
“If you want it, you’ve got it.” And I fired at Xeer. He turned head over tail, shouting. Pink fire blew everywhere, and Xeer stood amid the swirling pink substance. It wasn’t burning him, so it must have been that he was using technology to fool us.
“Attack!” I shouted. Again the pink fire blazed through the room, and with it, a squad of bunnies sprinted in.
“Humans, dost thou know who thee art dealing with?” Said Xeer in a mocking, Elizabethan voice. “I am the spawn of William. My father was…great, if not longlived. I have my revenge for you, and particularly you and you.” He indicated me and Kittymine. “You were the ones, who so long ago routed my father, and though your poor ignorant brains did not grasp it, me. Yes, in that submarine, you were the ones…”
“I’ll do it again, Xeer.” I warned. “The Resistance is faster than your gang of bunnies.”
“Oh?” Said Xeer softly. “Let’s test it, shall we? KILL!”
((GAPAs, maybe a new writing thread: Bunny Apocalypse: The Revenge of Xeer.
and underneath that maybe: “7th part in the gripping Bunny Apocalypse Series.))
((So when are we going to do this? Should we wait until after BA is ended to start the sequel or do it sooner? Most sane people would wait, but I am not sane.
I dunno. I need to write something.))
I was not feeling too good. Another bunny? We had barely escaped the last ones. I wasn’t sure we were going to survive this.
“Blood?” ZVX asked. “Well, we’ll see about that. But I think if there’s any more blood today, it’s going to be yours.”
The bunny grinned. It was not a nice grin. “Oh? Really? What makes you think so?” “Well, for one thing, you’re outnumbered about fifteen to one. And if you know anything, you’ll know that we just defeated about two hundred bunnies like you. I don’t think it would be smart to take on us.” ZVX sounded confident, but I was pretty sure he was bluffing. It actually hadn’t been us that had blown up the bunnies, they had blown up themselves. And we hadn’t exactly been left unscathed. I was pretty sure that Xeer knew that.
I was right.
((Has anyone noticed that ZVX seems to have become the main character here? It’s not a big thing, but he seems to be leading us into all the new places and doing most of the talking. I guess we’ve resolved the issue of having too many main characters.))
((310 – That IS true. About ZVX. He does seem to be a ‘main character’.
))
I was jolted out of another reverie by Zear or whatever yelling “KILL!” I leapt into action. Drawing out my lightsaber, I jumped at him and stabbed him in the nose. He yelled out in pain and grabbed me.
I noticed the shift in Xeer’s face before any others. He raised a paw to the defenders of our race.
“NO!” I screamed, shoving ZVX and Kittymine out of the way of the glowing pink mass as it began to spit fire. Xeer’s eyes turned the color to match his fur as he looked down upon me.
“Bravery is foolish”, he snarled, and the fire licked my legs. I leapt out of the way as hordes of bunnies began flooding through the doorway to the chamber. I knew that this was important. William could take other planets, but I would bnot allow his son to take mine. I screamed in rage, and leapt into the pink fire.
Everything grew very slow. i couldn’t move as quickly as I could normally. I slowly raised my blaster, shoulders sideways to the face of the bunny who so resembled William. He shot a blast of flame at me. He could move quickly, faster than me now. My hair caught fire. I screamed, but nothing came out of my mouth. It was like a bad dream.
I imagined an enormous hammer smashing this bunny, leaving him as powder to our feet. He spoke again.
“No such luck, human.”
‘You can read my mind?’ I thought.
“You are correct”, he hissed.”And with your knowledge, I’ll be able to know exactly what happened to my father so that I can do the same to you!”
“NOOOOOOOOOOOO!” I yelled. I put my mind into a defensive mode. But I felt myself weakening under his intensified gaze.
After slaughtering the bunnies that were trying to kill me, I quickly jumped up and grabbed the pipes on the ceiling. I swung myself on top of them, and looked around. Everyone seemed to be doing fine, except… Aggie! Xeer was cornering her. I crawled along to where I would be directly above Xeer. I drew my blaster and yelled, “Eat highly intensified laser beams, pucey rabbit!” and repeatedly shot at him. He looked up, and growled.
((Gah. Ignore my post.))
“Ha. Spawnling.” I snarled at him. “Black, too. Pathetic.”
That sent Xeer over the top. He bellowed to his minions to attack the bipeds and take no prisoners, or some such dire threat. He sprang as chairs, tables, screens, computers, weapons and more copious amounts of pink fire. Everything blazed throughout the room, I saw Agrrrfishi taking aim at Xeer, Zinc crawling towards Xeer, and Kittymine attempting to drag a body out of the way.
At that moment, an old bunny scanner came toppling out of the pipes on the ceiling. And landed on a bag of grenades that we had left when we attacked the fortress. Not a good combination. Flames spurted everywhere, the force flinging me up to the roof, with a couple of outdated missiles just sitting there. I righted myself. Below, every bit of furniture and machinery was completely powdered. No sign of anyone. Not even a…I mentally punched myself. I had made a rule. I would NOT, ever, ever, think that until it was certain.
The sight was eerily similar to all battlefields.
((315- I’m on pipes on the cieling. I was going to say rafters, but who would make a submarine out of wood?))
Suddnely, I was engulfed by flames. I screamed and screamed, yelling as Xeer stepped through the flames and gunpowder that was burning me alive and pinned me to the wall with his paw, snarling, claws digging into my neck. Blood was dripping from my main temple. Then, piles of dust and powder engulfed me, and I couldn’t move with the bunny and all that gunpowder on top of me. Xeer emerged from the pile, leaving me in ruin. I gasped. The room was ravaged. I couldn;’t hear anyone or see anyone. I f I was the only survivor, we were goners. I reached up a hand. Someone ran to me.
“Aggie? AGGIE? Come on, move, get up! AGGIE!” Someone was shaking me forcefully by the shoulders. ZVX had an angry look on his face. He turned to Xeer.’YOU STUPID BLACK SPAWNLING! Leave my friends alone!”
I rolled away from the scene, summoning all of my strength. Beside me was Aaron. He was not moving. I shook his arm. His eyes were blank and unresponsive.
“No…” I moaned. “Wake up.. Y-you have to wake up. D-don’t leave me…” A tear tickled the side of my face. I dropped my head. and let a choked sob escape my throat. The others were nowhere. We were fallen.
A blast. I clung onto the the pipe, screaming. The chaos stopped. I jumped down, wincing at the pain in my newly broken arm. I looked around. Prone figures laid all over, some bunnies, some of us, including… “Leafygreen!” I cried out, seeing her body slumped in a corner. I rushed over to her. I expected her to laugh and say it was all a joke, and laugh again at what my face looked like. But she didn’t laugh. Her eyes were wide open, unblinking, not twinkling with mischeiviousness. Her mouth was frozen in what appeared to be her last laugh, not cracking jokes and chattering away. I couldn’t hold it in any longer. I grasped her into a hug, and sobbed. I felt an unbearable, heart wrenching pain wash through me. Not from my broken arm, which I was ignoring, it was that horrible feeling of loss that comes from someone dying. Not the kind that happens when your gramma or grandpa dies, they were old. It happens when a beloved pet you’ve had all your life dies, or, in my case, a best friend. Leafygreen had been my best friend for as long as I could remember, and I never thought this would happen. Leafygreen Earth was famous in my group of friends for being able to escape any situation. Yet another disaster to add to my generous suply. Zoe… my town… and now Leafygreen! Was someone up there mad at me? What had I done wrong? Then I remembered something. When the bunnies invaded, Leafy and I had made little notes for each other to read if the other died. With shaking hands, I reached inside Leafy’s pocket, and retrieved the note.
((Danjit, that was long. I’ll type the note later.))
(((AAAAH!!! Why is everyone dying??? Just because we’re ending the story doesn’t mean we have to kill ourselves! We ARE trying to make a sequel! DO NOT KILL YOURSELVES PEOPLE!!!!
I should probably write something. But somehow I can’t think of anything. Maybe later.))
((319- Leafy’s dead on this thread only. Her death was inevitible because she was fighting next to the bombs.))
I stood up. Agrrrfishi could not die! That was unacceptable! I leapt at William — er, Xeer, hitting and biting and kicking and screeching. Xeer yelled in outrage and dropped Agrrrfishi. But he started slowly stalking toward me, eyes fiery.
((320-If she’s dead on this thread, then her kids aren’t going to be in the sequel. You can’t have kids if you’re dead. And you didn’t HAVE to make her fight next to the bombs. Oh well… it’s over already. But I LIKED Leafy!))
((A comment from another thread weirdly misposted during the blog outage and ended up over here. I’m leaving this note so as not to mess up any numbered references.))
((322- Oh ho ho, watch THIS!))
Before opening the note, I gave Leafy’s arm a sharp tap with my fingernail. I shuddered, then gasped as I struck metal. “Wha…” I said. “I’m kinda glad I made that robot!” said a very familiar voice behind me. I looked up. “Leafy!” I yelled. I hugged her. “What did you do?!” I asked. “Well, I felt that I would die, so I set up that robot to take my place. I’m alive.” she explained. My expression hardened, and I started kicking her in the shins. Hard. “You. Little. GIT!!!” I said, with each kick. “OW! OW! Heyheyhey, what’s this for?!” “You didn’t tell me, you prat!” “Tell you WHAT?!” “You were ALIVE!” “How was I supposed to?!” “Alright, maybe you couldn’t, but didn’t you tell me about the frickin’ robot?!” “It slipped my mind!” “IT SLIPPED YOUR MIND?! WHAT KIND OF AN IDIOT ARE YOU?!” I yelle increduously.
((God, that fun!))
((324-
Ooookay! I think that all of our characters must have some kind of summoning power, because they keep producing really advanced technology out of thin air.
I think that maybe five people are posting regularly at this point. This thread need resuscitation! I’ll post something just to keep the story going, but we either need better advertising or a new story.
Or at least I will write something after I eat lunch.))
((We need someone to do a big finishing line, then we get a new thread and we start with the kids.))
((319- If everyone’s dying, I guess I’ll have to keep myself alive for the sake of this thread.))
((326- what kids? Xeer? I wouldn’t define him as a kid.))
((327- You know, the thing about our kids defeating Xeer. William was, like, an adult. My kid’s name is Lark, and Leafygreen’s is Roberta.))
(( My kid’s name is Zena. Sorry, I’ve been at school all day and have had no time to post.))
What’s going on?? -looks confused- I’m new here. Maybe we could start a new thread, o GAPAs, and then I wouldn’t be completely out of the loop!
((…Hello? Can anyone help me?))
I was scared out of my mind. All of my bravery had drained away. I froze as he approached.
((SHEESH! I am away at school all day, and come back to find around 20 new threads (give or take). Ah, well.))
I was fighting bunnies (my broken arm, broken foot, and fever miraculously healed by Juliet’s healing crystals) when the world exploded. Everything was rent apart. I felt something hard bang into me, forcing me to the ground. The minutes seemed to drag by. Finally, the noise stopped. I made to get up, only then realizing that I was buried in a pile of rubble. And dust- lots of dust. I immediately began to sneeze like crazy (Kittymine is allergic to dust while I in reality am allergic to pollen. Same diff really.))
((*looks VERY confused* What’s happening? So we are now fighting William’s kid?))
-confused- What exactly is going on here?
((I’m not really sure myself…))
((333- We’re trying to finish this story so we can start a new thread which take place thirty years after this story ends. The humans in the new story are our kids, and we get to roleplay our own children.
Sorry for disappearing (no, my lunch is not that long!), I had to leave for capoeira right after, and we had a few other things to do as well. I’ll write something now. Does anyone mind me finishing up the story? I mean, this isn’t going to be the last post, but tell me if you don’t like it.
I think we should choose our kids’ characters on the new thread. It makes people confused if we do it here.
334-If you want to join, you should wait a day or two. We’re just finishing up this thread, but there’s going to be a sequel, and you can join that if you want.))
When the dust cleared, I looked around. “What the cake HAPPENED???” I asked to nobody in particular. “I have no-achoo!-clue,” said Kittymine, who was sneezing like crazy in all the dust. “Someone must have used a pretty big bomb. My guess is it was the bunnies. They sure seem to like blowing themselves up, don’t they?” Kittymine nodded. “We seem to be-achoo!-bombproof, or at least more so than the-achoo!- bunnies. Lets dig ourselves out of here and go see what happened to everyone else.”
We did, after some effort and a lot of sneezing, and found that everyone else was pretty much fine, except for a fractured arm in the case of Syllabub, but Juliet fixed her in no time. There was no sign of any bunnies, and after waiting for a few minutes we decided that they were all either blown up or had retreated. Luck seemed to be on our side today.
“Whew, I’m glad that’s over,” I said, sitting with everyone else in the main room of our base a few hours later. It wasn’t exactly a four-star hotel, but it was definitely more comfortable than anything we’d been in in the last few days. It seemed that our adventure with William was pretty much finished. And that was definitely a relief.
It would be a week before we got the message from Dr. Canix saying that the bunny troops had retreated from their headquarters all over the world and seemed to have simply disappeared. But for now, it wouldn’t have mattered whether we were attacked again in the next few days or allowed to live out the rest of our lives without hearing another mention of the bunnies again. We were all just REALLY glad to be back on Earth.
((336- really good. I like it a lot. What does anyone else think?))
((337- I like it! When can we start?))
((338-Now? You know, we never did ask the GAPAs how they felt about the whole idea… So, GAPAs, what do you think about giving us a new thread?
Any ideas for names? Bunny Invasion? The Revenge of Xeer? What do you think?))
((339- I think that “Bunny Apocalypse- The Revenge of Xeer” would be pretty fitting, don’t you? It sounds just like a sequel.
))
GAPAS? New thread, please?
((We shall name the new thread
BUNNY APOCALYPSE
The Revenge of Xeer.
How’s that sound?
The kids fighting Xeer idea SUCKS. I hate to dismiss it, but it wouldn’t keep the spirit of BA. Xeer has two years to adulthood, so everyone would be two years older.
If I’ve kept my tabs correctly:
Baylee: 12
Kokonilly: 14
Agrrrfishi: 16
Me: 16
Armada: ?
Zonka: ?
Kittymine: 18, I think.
Aaron: 18
Lucy: 16
other random humanoids controlled by us: ?
Anyone else?
GAPAs, please, please, please, new thread, titled the above suggestion.
So the children of the MuseBloggers fight the evil son of the evil bunny? Gosh, what comes after that, I wonder.
I’ll join the new thread.
341 – Weren’t Emmy and Lucy 10? So now they’d be 12. I think Stassi was 7, so now she’s 9.
((I think we should fast forward more, because half of us aren’t even old enough to handle kids and they wouldn’t be proper fighting age. Let’s say six years, shall we? Aaron and I are married, with twins: Zena and Zavier.
On with the thread making, yes?))
Couldn’t you mix up the formula a little this time? The MuseBloggers’ children all turn evil and heroic bunnies have to save the world, or something?
346 – Oh, that sounds absolutely delightful.
Six years? I’ll be 18. Let’s say I’m dating someone. Who? Oh, I really don’t care. Let’s pick… *random* Eric for a name. Not too popular, not too uncommon. I’ll be in college, too. Let’s say, JHU.
341-I’m twelve.
The thing is, if we fast forward only six years, then our kids, even if we’ve had any, won’t be old enough to be in the story. They’ll be five, at the oldest. How about if we make it twelve years? That might be seem a bit too much, but that way both us and our kids will get to be in the story, and while we won’t be so old that we can’t do anything other than offer advice, our kids will be old enough to fight.
Unless we want to drop the whole idea about our kids being in the story and just make it a immediate sequel. But I don’t like that idea. RPing our kids sounds really fun.
341) I’d be 13.
if it was six years, I’d be 17.
346) Heroic bunnies, I like it.
348 – Okay, I’m fine with that.
12 YEARS LATER: MY PROFILE
Age: 24
Status: Married to *random again* Connor
Education: Finished Ph. D. at Stanford and medical school at JHU, took undergrad at Northwestern University
Job: Chemist at Burnham Institute
Children: None.
The new Bunny Apocalypse thread has been created.
((so are we doing 2 years and we fight, or 6 years and our children fight? Oh, and ZVX- you’re off by a year. I’m 15 now, so I’ll be 17 in two years *shudders at the thought*. Groundhog is 19 now so in two years she’d be *gasp* 21! *starts freaking out a bit*)
((352 – I think twelve years, and we both fight.))
We’re doing 12 years. Go on the new thread!!
((352-Groundhog is NINETEEN?!?!?! So, that means that in twelve years she’d be 31, and you’d be 27. Gulp.))
((Groundhog is the oldest blogger on BA, I believe. The Next Generation is coming on well.))
356 – I think I’m the oldest youngish MBer as well (anyone older than me is listed as an adult)
((357-What about Grant O.? Is he 18, or older?))
((358 – He’s also 18, but his birthday’s after mine))
((I think this thread is dead, buried, and well into decomposition. But before we close it down, does anyone want to hear the song I wrote for BA? It’s basically a variation on the llama song, but it does sum up BA pretty well. Tell me if you guys are interested, don’t if you’re not.))
((I’d be interested in hearing it! I love the llama song and any variations on it.))
((360- Shoot.))
HELLLO PEOPLE OF THE WORLD!!!!!
363- Direct yourself to the neophyte thread.
HELLO I’M NEW AT THIS WHATS HAPPENING!!!! i like the hole text role plaing game thing.
360- sure. BA isn’t dead, it’s just moved on.
365-Nothing. This thread is dead. If you want to join, go to the Bunny Apocalypse: The Next Generation.
366-Well, yeah. This thread is dead. The story is not dead.
Okay. This is lame, but whatever.
Here’s a bunny, there’s a bunny
and another little bunny
scary bunny sneaky bunny
HOT PINK BUNNY! DUCK!!!!
Bunny bunny hot pink bunny
helibunny, dragonbunny
bunny bunny nicegoodus bunny
HOT PINK BUNNY! DUCK!!!!
I was once a Resister
I lived in the Marianas Trench
But I never found out just how William caught Juliet
I was only three weeks joined
but we killed the bunnies
now pay attention little Xeer to what happened to your father
Have you ever seen a bunny
kicked a bunny
on the bunny
bunny bunny kill the bunny
HOT PINK BUNNY! DUCK!!!!
Half a bunny, twice a bunny
not a bunny, AvalonGirl, bunny
bunny in a pod
alarm a HOT PINK BUNNY! DUCK!!!!
Is that how it’s told now?
Are we quite so old?
Did we really do all that?
Wow, we’re really cool [doesn’t rhyme, I know. Sorry]
Now this story’s getting old, so– OH CAKE, JUST OUR LUCK!!
GET DOWN ON THE FLOOR!! IT’S A HOT PINK BUNNY! DUCK!!!!
Oh, yeah. ZVX, are you still interested in doing an edit of this? Of BA, I mean? I’m ready any time you are.
ZVX?
367 – I love the song!
368 – I’m just curious, what do you mean by an edit? If you mean compiling all of the posts into a real story, then I would be happy to help also.
370-Thanks. The song is kind of idiotic, but…. *shrug*
Yes, I mean compiling the posts into a real story. ZVX said in post #243 that “I plan to compile everything into a somewhat coherent story. BA is a thriller, if we put it together, edited it, and had the GAPAs make a new thread for it, then all the MBers could read it, review, and voice their opinions.”
I’m very ready to do that. If we get a few more people together, I think we could start. So would you like to join me on the recruiting committee? If we get just a few more people, I think we could really do this!
ZVX? Groundhog? Anyone?????
CALLING EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO EDIT BA!!! CALLING EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO EDIT BA!!!
372- Of course I want to help! I’d love to help! I love helping! *ramnbles on and on, and on and on, and…*
373-Oh, good. Finally someone. My hope that probably most of the original BAers would be willing to help to some extent, though they haven’t said so yet…..
GAPAs, could we possibly have a BA-editing thread? *puppy eyes*
372 – Sorry. I’m here. What should I be doing?
(Sorry for the doublepost, I need to continue the one from last night.)
A BA editing thread would be a good idea. I know that there are some inconsistencies in the RPG, because we didn’t always know what everyone else was planning on doing, and we need to fix those if we’re going to turn this into a real story.
Also, if I have time, I’m going to make some illustrations for the story. I’m not claiming this job for myself, I think that more than one illustrator is a cool idea, I’m just saying that I’d like to do that.
Parts I like:
scary bunny sneaky bunny
I was once a Resister
I lived in the Marianas Trench
But I never found out just how William caught Juliet
I was only three weeks joined
but we killed the bunnies
now pay attention little Xeer to what happened to your father
Is that how it’s told now?
Are we quite so old?
Did we really do all that?
Wow, we’re really cool
Now this story’s getting old, so– OH CAKE, JUST OUR LUCK!!)
What’s the
Half a bunny, twice a bunny
not a bunny, AvalonGirl, bunny
mean?!
Oh, and I was thinking about making backstories for AvalonGirl and Serafina. Serafina has a REALLY tragic past, which is why she can be so cold…
376-Ooo, illustrations would be awesome! That sounds great, groundhog.
Exactly. As well as there being a lot of inconsistencies in the RPG, we would have to do something about POVs if we were going to turn BA into a real book-like story. I mean, I have nothing against having a story be told from more than one POV, but sixteen? Also, it’s really confusing when the POV keeps changing every two paragraphs….. I’m not sure exactly what we’re going to do about it, but we’ll think of something.
377-Half a bunny twice a bunny
Not a bunny, AvalonGirl, bunny
…..well, the ‘half a bunny’ part could be because you’re killing bunnies so effectively? I’m not sure about ‘twice a bunny’…. I was really just trying to stick with the format as closely as possible, and I couldn’t think of anything better.
The ‘not a bunny, AvalonGirl, bunny’ part I did not make up. Do you remember the scene, maybe in the second or so thread, where AvalonGirl gets this weird not-exactly-bunnification treatment, and then you had a discussion with IBCF or somebody about how you HADN’T BEEN BUNNIFIED, YOU JUST GREW WINGS AND CLAWS AND TURNED PINK BECAUSE OF SOME TOTALLY RANDOM COINCIDENCE!!!!!? That’s what that’s about.
378 – Third-person omniscient sounds pretty good to me. That way we can include all of everyone’s thoughts as well as their actions. What do you think?
379-Sure, that sounds good. It’s going to be one heck of an editing job, though….. I mean, we’re basically going to have to rewrite the whole story from the beginning. And we’re going to have to find a way to keep in all of the brilliant lines, too…. (Well, not really. But there are a few lines that it would be a shame to cut out.)
380 – Yeah, I know. The only thing that will be easier is that we won’t have to deal with writer’s block.
381-True.
So, when do we want to start?
382 – Hmmm…I don’t see anything stopping us right now, except for the lack of a BA editing thread. Actually, now that I’m thinking about it, it’s going to be hard to make a coherent story on a thread here, because if two people post a piece of the story at once, how do we know which one to use? Maybe if there was something that all of us editing people could access and modify…?
SFTDP: I’m in the middle of setting up a site where we can do the edit. Details to follow when I finish.
383-Yes, I asked the GAPAs for a BA-editing thread, but I didn’t get a reply, so I guess we’ll have to make do with this thread for now….. we’re almost at 400 posts anyway, so I guess we can just ask for a BA-editing thread when we get to 400. (Unless the GAPAs want to make an editing thread? *puppy eyes again*)
I don’t think that having two people post at once with different versions of a story is going the be that much of a problem– I mean, there doesn’t seem to be much of a problem with The Sea Roc and TERRAformed and all the other RRRs that are undergoing editing– we can just decide by popular vote which version fits the plot better and ignore the other one….. but it would definitely be nice to have a version of the whole story that we could look at and then edit, instead of having to dig through all the old threads to find what part we’re editing…… a site would be nice.
((Haha, as I can’t keep up with BATNG, I shall do something completely random!))
The ship thudded down onto- I dunno, Africa?- and ZVX said, “Well, this is it.” We crept out of the ship and looked around.
The land was completely barren. I sniffed, still thinking about Leafy’s explosive end. The image of her glassy, unblinking eyes, clear with death, was burned into my mind and soul. As others looked around for a sign of life or water, I sat down on the steps of the ship.
Life; death; love. “What does it all mean?” I wondering aloud.
“42,” an unfamiliar voice said in a laughing tone. My head snapped up, and I looked around for the person.
No one was there.
I shook my head in disbelief. Shock was getting to me.
I leaned back, and looked at the clear blue sky. We were going to make it better, l knew it. The air would no longer be wrought with screams; the Earth no longer polluted with despair.
Somehow, sometime, we would fix it.
386- *blinkblinkblink* What was that, exactly? It’s nice, but… I thought we already ended BA.
387: Boredom, obviously.
Why is this still open?
389- Why ever not?
It still is open! Jeez, I thought BA had migrated to BA:TNG. (Actually, it has.)
I wonder why this is still open. What’s the point? (Unless, of course, someone wants to restart it.)
391- I’m not really sure. Can’t be oversight, at this point, but it does look like this thread’s gotten a fair amount of use even after BA was finished and become BA:TNG.
Love this crazy series.
212- (William)
Ouch...281- Gee, touchy kid
Eh, I wrote some pretty weird stuff here

Can i join too?

I mean, you could join this one, but the two of you might get a bit lonely.
((Umm…why on earth is this thread in the Currently Popular section if no one has posted on here since December 24th, 2010? And why is this thread even open for posting anymore anyway?))
Sheer laziness on the part of criminally negligent GAPAs.
♫ Spam! Spam! Spam! Spam! Lovely spam! Lovely spam! ♪
Because I love this thread a lot… I loved this RPG a lot… it’s probably the only officially finished one (TNG is different). Spambots sense my love, maybe? Probably not. I still visit from time to time just for comment 30.
