Don't Run

The Boys

The 3 of them had watched her get back to the college in an extremely uncomfortable and rigid walk.

Despite coming to an agreement, they still didn't like each other at all. All three of them had some weird fantasy that she'd run to them in a panic for protection.

Maybe? She wasn't sure what she'd do yet. But she knew one thing. It wasn't going to be as easy as they thought.

When they got near Michelle's road, Alona timidly looked behind her and stiffly walked off in the direction of the girl's dorm.

The three men awkwardly stood there until she was completely out of sight.
Then with brief antagonizing glances, silently they all walked off in different directions. It was clear this was just another battle to them. just not with their fists. 

When the Witch returned, coincidentally an actual letter WAS waiting for her. Pat joked about how she just sent them a letter, when they had sent this one. Alona took it curiously from her hand. ripping open the envelope rather quickly.

Dear sister, Meeko and I are coming to the embassy to see you!!! They said you can stay with us for a week and relax. The City is being extra accommodating this year. I think Director Jillam told them how bad ass you are! So cooool. I hope you're doing alright. We should be seeing you tomorrow since we're leaving tonight after I send this letter. We paid good money for the hawk so you better get this on time!
Love, Jacey

Alona rolled her eyes and laughed at her silly sister. The Bunny instantly burst with excitement! She really needed to spill her guts out to Jacey. A week was perfect.

She informed Pat immediately. The cat looked sad to see her go, but she was happy Alona could go see her family.

As the Bunny packed some essentials, she realized something hilarious.

Lucid was gonna go wild. He'd have to wait a whole week to "take his turn". She wondered how depraved he'd be. How rough. She got shivers just thinking about his frustration and anticipation. She laughed to herself a bit.

He didn't seem as arrogantly blind as the other two...sometimes. But even if he was kind of smart, he was still just as violent and domineering.

She got to hug Michelle and Minwa goodbye. Despite herself, she also hugged Lulu. The Hyena held her tightly. Like a desperate apology. The rabbit gave her a sheepish look. She could interpret it however she liked.

Then the bunny left, wearing a long white sweater with one suitcase in hand. Walking with a couple escorts to the embassy. As they made their way into the streets a couple stragglers craned their next to see her, tucked between 4 huge Warriors. Anyone who thought about it would realize who she was. The Witch had yet to make a name for herself, but no random bunny would ever come here. 

When the fancy doors swung open and the huge building was revealed to her, she was quite shocked. The Witch hadn't ever seen anything like it before.

A busy flurry of employees and messenger birds. Wooden cubbies with slots of mail flying everywhere in chaos. But somehow it was maintained by the fast and skilled workers. Flying to and from their desks to different areas. The tall cylindrical ceiling reached up into the sky with a painted glass roof and small slots on the sides for birds to come and go through.

The Warriors quickly walked her to the back of the building, the farther they went and the more doors they went through, the quieter it got. Until that huge bustle of noise soon faded from her range of hearing. Relaxing her.
