Astraea looked over her shoulder as she wandered around this strange zoo set up in Deb U's campus. She couldn't put her finger on it, but there was something familiar about that cage over by the end. Something that made her think of lopsided lengthy ears..."NO!" reverberated in her mind. She didn't want to go there - she still had nightmares.
All Asty had wanted to do this year was just escape from the Retirement Mansion. It was nice in there, sure. But Hebea had disappeared into the lower levels years ago, and Nanaea never came out of the vaults anymore. The heros and gods didn't check in very often, and Astraea was BORED. Muttering to herself, "Nanaea may think that counting money is everything, but this goddess needs a little R&R," Astraea took another step away from the rather creepy perky woman at the front of the zoo.
"There's something familiar about her, too," Asty thought and suddenly had visions of hair, in all sorts of shades. Blue, chartreuse streaks in platinum blonde.
Astraea's pace began to increase, and then came the sound she had been half expecting. THUMP THUMP THUMP. THUMP THUMP THUMP. THUMP THUMP THUMP. Astraea ran screaming through the dark, but it was too late. THUMP THUMP THUMP! The bunnies had her again, and the sounds of their little teeth ripping out her throat echoed in the night...
"Darn," she thought as her mind faded into its ghost status, "this is the second time those stupid bunnies have gotten me!"
