Wyot and the lost princesses

We find the village of murder bunnies

After hours of travels we spot a village in the distance. We decided to set up camp a few miles away from the village just in case there was danger. "I'm going to check out the village, stay here and keep an eye on the horses." Fabian commanded in an unusually strict tone, his eyes seeming more icy then they usually did. I nodded and tied the horses to a nearby tree. Soon enough I got hungry and decided to grab some food out of Fabian's bag, while looking for food in his bag I found a journal. "Wow.... Imma read that shit." I mumbled before opening it and starting to read the words which seemed to be in Fabian's point of view.

December first

Dear diary SHIT journal,

It's been three days since Zander and I started our travels. We have discovered a chalky, the small creature seems to have taken a liking to us and it's decided to climb onto our horses and join our travels. Zander asked to be my boyfriend! I've never been more happy.

After reading this I turned to a different page.

December fifth

Dear journal,

Today Zander was working out while I set up camp. He looked amazing, his muscles were so refined even though when they're not strained you can barely see them. He noticed me staring and he smirked. I don't even think I could describe what happened next but all I'm gonna say is that im laying naked in his arms as I write this.

The thought of that made me blush and I closed the journal. I saw Fabian headed back my way so I closed the diary and I swiftly put it back in his bag. "I got us some food and a place to sleep, come on," He said and led me to the city inn where we got a room with bunk beds, the people who owned the inn also took our horses to a place where they'd get water and hay. Our room was just like any other, bland and colourless.

" I.... I don't wanna sleep..." I said carefully hoping that Fabian wouldn't ask any questions but the fact that he was now my father made me suspect that he would definitely ask questions.

"Why not, what's wrong?" He was extremely worried, which he had the right to be but that doesn't mean I had to like it.

"I've been having strange dreams... magic dreams to be exact..."

"Could you be more specific?" I complied and told him about my previous dreams, of course I left out the part where I found the guy in my dreams cute. "That's impressive kid, that kind of magic is hard to achieve." He said before thinking about it.

Just when we were gonna get ready for bed we heard a loud noise and strange squeaks. We went downstairs to check out what the noises were. Once we got downstairs there were giant bunnies on their hind legs like.... Like.... Like werewolves but bunnies... werebunnies!? " WHAT IN THE EVERLOVING FUCK ARE THOSE!?" I yelled. As one launched itself at me Arty jumped out of Fabian's bag and transformed but was almost instantly overpowered and knocked aside. Fabian drew a sword and picked Arty who had now transformed back up.

" Katch!" Fabian tossed me a sword, I had no idea how to use it but at least I could defend myself now. I swung the sword whenever a werebunny tried to attack. Left, right, left, right, they just kept attacking. We ran to the stables and got our horses out. We got followed by the werebunnies, their jaws snapping at our horses as we tried to gallop away. The creatures were terrifying, razor sharp teeth with beady red eyes that stared through your soul, basically just werewolves but bunnies which made them more scary because of the ruined innocence of the bunnies.

"We should hide in the woods and investigate in the morning." Fabian said as he whacked a werebunny on the head which would have been sad if it wasn't trying to eat us and our horses.

We hid in the forest until sunrise and carefully went back to the village where everyone seemed slightly dazed.

"Just like werewolves." I mumbled which just got me a confused look from Fabian, I shrugged in response. "I'm right, aren't I? Werebunnies."

"I suppose you are correct, but there was no full moon.." Fabian responded before walking up to someone and asking questions. "Do you remember what happened to everyone last night?" The woman nodded and told us it all started the day of the cursed man, the mention of the cursed man made Fabian seem sad. "Thank you for confirming that." Fabian wrote something in his journal and turned to me. "We should head back onto the road, we're on a mission after all."

"But shouldn't we help them? There must be something we can do." I protested hoping that there was anything but Fabian shook his head.

"If I'm correct then continuing our mission is going to help them." His words confused me but I had no choice but to listen. I mounted Ace and we continued onward.

"Hey Fabian?" I thought about asking him about this lost lover 'Zander' . I knew it would upset him but I had to know.

"Yeah kid?"

"I... I kinda read a bit of your journal and I was wondering...-" the instant i was about to ask i got cut off by Fabian in an angry tone.

"YOU WHAT!? HOW MUCH DID YOU READ!?"

"Not a lot, I was just wondering about this Zander guy." I said carefully and Fabian took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Alright kid, he.... He was my lover, hell he was my everything but..-"

"But?"

"I lost him.."

"To the cursed man?" I asked based on what I'd noticed about the topic upsetting him.

"To the curse..." He responded. His lover was the cursed man, that's why the topic upset him and why he accepted this mission. He wants to find and bring back Zander.

"Is there a way to break it?"

"There is, it is said that on this year's great blue moon his curse will either be broken or become permanent."

"I know that part of the story." "Yes but only I know what the trigger to break it is." Fabian seemed like he wouldn't tell me what it was even if I asked nicely so I just dropped the topic.

"Soooo...." I started unsure of what to say next. "....What is love like?" I asked carefully.

"It... well it was like heaven on earth, like whenever I'd look at him my heart raced and my whole body heated up.."

"That's what looking at the guy in my dream felt like.." I mumbled as Fabian gave me a knowing look.

"You can't say that and expect me to not ask for more details kid." He said with a smile.

I talked for hours on end about the boy with his beautiful ashy hair and his glimmering golden eyes, he was demonic yet charming and after a few hours of talking I realised.... I'm in love for the first time ever..... with a boy... and that was okay...
