For some time now, Kickin had rented a second apartment, abandoning the old one that was paid for with his parents' money... parents who didn't want him around...
The new apartment still had a pool and a breathtaking view, but the best thing was that it had two bedrooms, meaning the girls had a room to themselves while Kickin was alone in another.
Dogday would spend time with them and would sleep with the girls, Hoppy, the way he was, slept cuddled up with Crafty and Dogday.
The puppy opened his eyes slightly as he smelled the rabbit very close, but that wasn't important... since he saw something that froze him completely; he saw a huge creature, with something similar to hair in a very dark blue tone.
This creature looked exactly like Crafty, only much more animalistic. Its hands had rotten flesh and bones showing, it smoothed Crafty's mane and adjusted the blanket that covered her.
Dogday stared and didn't move, the creature noticed the boy's little eyes, and his other hand, which had only bones, pointed to his own head, where a halo appeared that resembled a star.
This didn't last long, as Kickin entered the room to wake the children, and with the door opening, the equine creature disappeared as the light emerged.
— Come on kids… wake up… it’s morning and breakfast is on the table — said the sleepy chicken, almost tripping as he went in to wake up the children.
He shook Dogday, Crafty but Hoppy would not let herself be woken, she woke up quickly, jumped and stood up in bed;
— What a day!! Muahahahahahahahaha!! — emanating electrical energy throughout the room, not only her necklace, but the others' necklaces shone along with the rabbit's awakening.
— Ah… Hoppy, just a few more minutes… — Crafty said, still lying down and turning to the other side.
— No way, you mare! — he lay on top of her — let's put those hooves to work! — he gave the unicorn a quick kiss.
The door slammed shut, the two looked and the one who had closed the door was Dogday;
— Girls — he turned on the light — I need to talk to you.
Dogday explained what he saw when he woke up, Hoppy was very skeptical about it, but Crafty ran to her little table where she draws. She rummaged through the scribbled and drawn papers, soon finding what she wanted;
She shows the paper and asks if what Dogday saw was really similar to that drawing.
— Yes! Exactly like this! — he said with conviction.
— Wow, I didn’t know you could draw so well… but what is this thing? — Hoppy asked, a little in disbelief.
— I don't know, she appears to me in dreams, she's harmless and just hugs me, she doesn't even squeeze me — she said, putting the paper on the floor.
— When I woke up she was just smoothing your hair and wrapping you up with the blanket — Dogday said looking at the paper.
— Hmm… maybe she has something to do with me, after all, she always takes my necklace and puts it around her neck, as if she was telling me that…
— That necklace is hers — Hoppy said with a serious look — Crafty, Dogday… the creature you saw is the owner of that necklace, we don't know for sure but if she always takes the necklace for herself, it means it's hers or she's trapped inside.
— Wow, that was really deep… — Dogday said, quite impressed.
— I didn't think about it that way, but how did you come to that conclusion? — Crafty asked.
— Even though I don't trust Nathan much lately, he left me with some teachings, and one of them is that every mystery has a source, in this case, this creature and the necklace are connected in some way, either it was hers, or it is her — replied the rabbit.
— Great! Let's go to Nathan's! But first we have to have coffee... even though we don't trust Nathan very much, he's the only one with the answer — said Dogday a little apprehensively.
The rabbit agreed, since it was really likely that Nathan could figure it out, Hoppy alone wouldn't be able to. The little group left the room, washed their faces, brushed their teeth and had a good breakfast.
They sat comfortably on the couch, playing games or drawing something. After lunch, they were finally able to leave. They told Kickin they were going out and soon left...
Hoppy picked them both up in his arms and ran at an absurd speed to Nathan's house. The environment was no longer that white garden, it had returned to normal, but there were a large number of flowers around the place, and the fox was watering them.
— How funny, I really thought you didn't trust me anymore, after all… — Nathan looked at the trio — you came here, and you even brought friends, especially this dog…
— I may have even come and brought some friends along, but we want some answers, and I'm sure you know that — he stepped forward, clenched his fists and looked serious, Hoppy seemed to be angry.
— Oh wow, how funny, you think you can defend your friends… but tell me — he dropped the watering can that magically disappeared — what are your doubts?
Crafty steps forward to speak;
— There is a creature that appears in my dreams, and this morning Dogday saw her too, she seems to take care of me and has something to do with this necklace — she showed the flower necklace, she was shaking.
— If it's not the creator causing turmoil in your lives once again, this creature could be from an ancient past or a clear representation of his true power — said the fox, summoning the watering can once again to water the flowers.
— Yeah, we got the answer… let's go back — Hoppy said, turning his back and taking both of their hands.
—Wait! — said Dogday — is there a way to talk to her?
— If you need time to think, try to have a collective dream, if you are not afraid, I can take it now — he did not lose focus.
Dogday's question made Hoppy slightly angry, but she did nothing. Crafty, on the other hand, upon hearing Nathan's answer, became afraid. She wanted to do it now, but it would be a nuisance for him. She chose to do it at home when she could get more courage about the subject.
Hoppy disappeared at high speed, carrying the two…
— Psst… did the plan work? — The door to Nathan's house opened, and what opened was a purple tail with a patch on the end.
— Don't play dumb... you already know that everything works out when the creator takes the reins — said Nathan.
— Oh, you know, sometimes he likes a good intrusion, something to get his attention — said the voice.
