Everyone (nearly) is involved! Yay! :D

-

It was one of the first uproars in the household. Mainly because Craig, after reading a book, had decided to experiment a little - which failed big time.

"I swear to god, I'm sorry!" Craig cowered in a corner as Jonathan and Luke stared at the human-sized bunny and cow in front of them.

"What's wrong?" Ryan asked, scratching his head, only to discover two huge floppy things (lenny face) attached to his head. "Oh. OH."

Brock casually let out a moo before he got smacked in the face by Marcel.

"Dude, Brock, I don't know why you have a cow head, but you're still Moo Snuckel, right?!"

"..Moo Smackel?"

To their utmost horror, Ryan was now a full-on bunny, Lui had a monkey head and tail, Brock had a cow head, Evan had an owl head and huge owl wings, Tyler had a pig head and was snorting his heart out, and Bryce had a cat head and was busily grooming himself with his mew cat paws.

"Who dem? Is dis a petting zoo?" David asked groggily, rubbing his eyes. Evan was attempting to walk around, but his huge owl wings were whacking the vases and cups off the shelves. In the end, he just lay on the floor and made snow angels.

"You know what, perhaps everything will be better after we all have a good ol' cup of Starbucks." Brian suggested. Everyone - every human - agreed, except Jonathan.

"I'll stay here to watch the petting zoo."

With all the humans gone and only a whole load of animals remaining, Jonathan sighed. This was going to be a huge mess.

Lui, having finally gotten a tail, was swinging from the crystal chandelier. Tyler had decided to get a carrot to munch on, which Brock was trying to steal from him, starting a Snatch Da Carrot! competition, and Bryce was chasing after Evan, who had finally learnt how to use his wings and was trying to fly out of the window. Jonathan felt like tearing his hair out - until he noticed Ryan just sitting in a corner.

"Hey, Ohm. What's up?" Jonathan asked gently, only to be met with Ryan's dejected look.

"I won't - I won't be like this forever, right? I mean, out of them all, I'm probably the only one with a functioning brain." Ryan sniffed a little. "I mean I've always had this bunny character - but not in real life!"

Jonathan, not knowing how to comfort him, gave him a bear hug. It was then that Evan decided to land on his head, and Bryce's cat tail ended up in his face.

"DAMNIT, guys, can't you chill a little!!"

There was sort of a silence in the house, broken by a half-eaten carrot dropping on the floor.

"Brock, Tyler, deal with that mess of saliva on the floor. Eww! Bryce, please get your ass off my face. And Lui-"

CRASH

"LUI, what in the actual fuck did you do to the CHANDELIER?!"

They all heard the door unlock.

It was then that Jonathan knew that he fucked up.

"We've been discussing things, and we've concluded that Craig doesn't know a goddamned thing about the counter-curse - THE SHIT HAPPENED TO THE CHANDELIER?!"

-

Craig was forced to clean up the whole mess of crystal and glass on the floor, while Brian and Marcel attempted to punish Lui. Meanwhile, Luke and David decided to head upstairs and do some research.

"It says here, they need ta drink human blood to be human again!"

"The shit?" Luke swore, and hurried over. "Goddamnit Nogla, it's talking about bats! Like the species of bats that sucks blood! That's not related to anything!" He took in a deep breath. "I'm pretty sure that Mini cast a simple spell, and it'll wear off after a few days."

"Oh really? That's good." Tyler muttered as he sat with his pig ear to the door. "At least I can talk again." Evan tried to talk, but let out a series of hoots instead.

Downstairs, Bryce was opening the fridge, taking out a carton of milk to drink when the doorbell rang.

"Um. Did anyone by chance order some pizza?" Bryan asked, breaking the awkward silence.

Tentatively, Marcel walked towards the door and opened it-

And Brock suddenly remembered reading the notice hanging from the gate yesterday, which mentioned authorities coming to their area to clear out the stray cats there.

"Sorry to disturb you sir, we were supposed to be clearing out the stray cats when we heard some.. noises coming from your home..?"

And Evan picked the right time to come tumbling down the stairs, right in front of the animal-catchers.

"..hoot?"
