Please! Someone help me to my room. We need blankets and towels and boiled water. Lots of blankets for nesting. And we can expect four to twelve kits, so be ready for more than-- unnnngh!
bandaidd started to get up, then stopped abruptly. After the contraction, she went to the back supply room and got as many blankets as she could carry. After resting through another contraction, she made her way up the stairs, friends following closely behind.
She methodically made a nest, using the pile of blankets from the supply room and the bedding from her room. She lost track of the other bunnies in the room, so focused on giving birth.
She kindled four live births, three bucks and one doe. She dutifully licked the cauls off of each and ate the placenta, made sure all of the kits were feeding well and then fell into a deep and satisfied sleep.

bandaidd awoke to the uncomfortable sensation of suckling newborns. She spent some time watching them and thinking about names. The large, agressive buck was going to have to be named Ex, in honor of Exor who was destroyed saving Rabbit Oaks from the fiend Nightmare. bandaidd was determined that his memory should never be forgotten.
But about the other three... the doe would be Elle. The gray buck with unusually blue eyes would be Jay. And the black buck would have a traditional tribal name: Wipazuke Waste Wi which means "when berries ripen" in the old tongue. He would be a reminder to all of the example of Grandmother Earth giving in abundance. And that bunnies should endeavor to do no less.
That done, she disengaged from her kits and got up for some cooling tea and fresh veggies that she spotted on the table. Getting up felt good. The kits snuggled together sleepily in the middle of the nest. She decided to go downstairs for a bit and see what was up.

She felt it.
Some heard it.
Few saw it.
An indigo hue had begun to gather south of town. After a long while, a small flame began to collect there. It spread for about a meter along the ground, gently reaching upward. It grew darker there over time, and then all at once, the silence was broken by the violence of a torrential power ripping itself into being. The cacophony was tremendous, but even to the sensitive ears of the bunnies nearby, only a few could pick up the abnormal whisper in the wind. The flames leapt, high and dark as night, yet less than a dozen could even see the trick their mind had played on them for a moment. A soft wind blew as the terrific explosion reached its peak and then died down, leaving only a familiar form in a heap on the missing grass.
He panted there, unnoticed, for a time before he raised his hands before his eyes. "I am back... ...at last..." He fell backwards and rolled once down a slight incline to come to a rest in the shade, eager to rest.
Those few random bunnies that were close to where he came back into being could not see him. Indeed, even those who thought they saw something there and came to investigate even stared directly at him, but he was invisible to their sight and touch: only the feeling that something was there remained.

bandaidd gasped and ran up the stairs to check on her kits. Something had happened. she knew it had.
But they were all there in the nest snuggled safely together. As she entered the room, Ex raised his head a stared right at her though his eyes were still sealed shut and wouldn't open for a few days. He was staring and following her movements attentively and blindly. It was disconcerting. Like he could see without seeing. she shook herself and climbed back into the nest and cuddled them all, but Ex just watched.

*In the predawn hours, a pair of large jackrabbits comes to the home of one of the bunnies and kicks in the door. Grabbing the bunny by the ears, they drag her through the town square and strap her in to a large chair.*
Bunny Faerie KatrinaZ, you are charged with the murders of Nei1 and Killafrog. You have been sentenced to death by lethal injection.
*As Faerie struggles against her bonds and protests her innocence, a hooded figure steps behind her, plunging a syringe in to her arm. With a gasp, Faerie whispers, No, why? Then she slumps over in the seat.*
It is done, take her away.
*One of the large bunnies places a paw on Faerie's neck, then nods and the bunnies take her body away for autopsy. At the conclusion of the exam, it is determined that Faerie, was indeed, a bunny and not a wolf.*

*As Faerie's bunny-spirit floats slowly up into the early morning sky, her soft voice carries out in the gentle breezes ... * Why me? Just because I was first to stumble upon Nei's mutilated body? Was it because I wear light colored clothing and iridescent-like wings? And I was in the tavern with a couple of bunny-friends the night killafrog disappeared! I was just a friendly and innocent bunny-Faerie who cared for all ... *the tears from Faerie's eyes fall down to the village, like a gentle rain cleansing the earth ... * crying

*ayami collects herself takes a cool shower and heads off to the tavern to be with the group of bunny friends - this wolf must be sniffed out soon!*

Nei is alone in a underground cave, dead. Her only contact was a another mean spirit who vanished before Nei could ask him further about how she can get back home. Now she mindless wonders through the caves.

*Faerie's bunny-spirit floats just above the villagers and watches over them* Ah, my old friend Ayami ... Maybe that migraine befuddled your mind, but I am glad you are feeling better now. And Psyzapp, Rabbit Oaks is home to many and we have opened our arms to welcome you. Your determination is of great value. I just hope it doesn't get the better of you.
*Faerie next hovers over bandaidd nestled in with her new kits* Oh what a wonderful sight to see all the new little bunnies! Bandaidd, you must be so proud! You will make an excellent mother honeybun, you'll see! *Faerie moves in closer and touches each kit with an angelic bunny nuzzle. Then she notices Ex lift his head and look directly at her with his still closed eyes ... * Oh my, you are a strong one. Your abilities will take you far in this life and beyond, my little one. Use your gifts wisely.
*Above the village again, Faerie's voice carries softly in the wind ... * As in the past, there will be more attacks on the innocent ones and it must be stopped! You must all find this wolf impostor and soon! *As she makes her way to the South end of the village, she feels a very strong pull. Faerie's senses know exactly whose spirit it is ... * Exor! You have returned! ...

*Ayami hops to see Bandaidd. She has knitted little bunny sweaters for each of the kits. She has also brought lots of healthy snacks for Bandaidd so that she can keep her strength up for the little ones.*
Hey there Bandaidd, care to have a visitor? how are you feeling?

Ayami! Come on in! So you heard the news? Or were you there? I'm afraid I remember very little. Aren't they beautiful? So far they just eat and sleep, but it's so amazing just watching them. Oh dear. Listen to me ramble. How are you doing? Any news? Have they caught the wolf yet?
bandaidd looked at her kits in loving amazement, then smiled at Lady Ayami and held her kits a little closer to her, in a protective gesture.
