What Leona woke up in was morning now. She looked at the clock and saw that she had slept for at least four hours. Leo sat up and yawned before getting up to look at her baby, only to find the transparent bed empty.
She was confused by this and went to find the nurse.
As she stepped into the large hallway she saw it was bustling with doctors, nurses and other patients.
"Excuse me, do you know where that rabbit nurse is?" She asked a doctor who was passing by.
"Who?"
"The lady rabbit nurse, I was a mess last night so she took the baby off me so I could get a few hours sleep." She explained, starting to feel very worried.
The doctor's eyes widened as he went into the room and saw the empty cot. He ran out the room and started check every room and bathroom. When he entered the nearest bathroom to Leo's room he froze before calling security.
In the trash was a spare nurse's uniform...

Neil Faris groaned as a loud ringing woke him up.
After talking with his wife last night he went to a few bars for a much need drink. He stumbled back into his hotel room, completely wasted, and collapsed on the bed before passing out.
He suddenly realised that the ringing noise was coming from his phone.
He looked and saw it was an unknown number, he arched and eyebrow before answering, trying to ignore the pounding in his head.
"Hello?"...
******
The rabbit mutant giggled lightly as she danced around the room with the little baby in her peacefully laying in her arms. She was now back in her home in upstate New York in the old farm house she had lived in for years.
She was in the baby nursery near the far end of the house with Leona's baby as the blue fish mobile above the cot played a pretty tune.
"I made these and the cushion cover." She said, pointing to the pillows on the rocking chair before moving over to the cot. "I also bought the cot bumper so you wouldn't bump your little head, isn't it lovely." She smiled and the quiet baby in her arms.
"Oh and Daddy bought you this." She quickly added, touching the mobile. "I wanted the one in yellow but Daddy thought that one played a much better tune, nothing to do with the fact that it was in blue." She sighed as she sat in the rocking chair.
"Still, you don't want to here about that, do you? You want your bottle." She said and grabbed the bottle of baby formula of the deck. But when she tried to feed the baby with it the little refused to take it, having only ever been fed breast milk from her mother...

Back at the hospital, the head of security, Leona and the doctor were in the family room, trying to find out where her baby was.
"What did she have on?" The guard asked her.
"I told you! She was wearing a nurse's outfit and she was a dark brown mutant rabbit!" She exclaimed. Now that she realised that her baby was taken she was in state of panic.
The guard sighed and grabbed his walkie-talkie.
"I want every member of security searching this hospital from top to bottom! Find that rabbit!" He exclaimed.
Leo just lay back in her change trying to get her head around how this could happen...

Back at the Saiyo household the house phone started ringing loudly. Tigerclaw bit back a yawn as he trudged down the stairs and into the living room where the phone was.
"Hello?" He asked when he answered it.
...
"This is him speaking." H replied, rubbing his eyes.
...
"No, I left they both at the hospital. What's wrong?" Tigerclaw asked in a worried tone.
...
"WHAT?!"...

When Neil Faris arrived at the hospital he was immediately brought into an office where the head of security was waiting for him. When the guard noticed him he shook the other human's hand.
"Mr. Faris, have been kept up to speed?" He asked but Neil shook his head, he knew that a baby had been taken but he didn't know what that had to do with him or his wife. "Well the police have been informed and will be starting the usual inquiries, but they are suggesting that we put together a TV and radio appeal which will be carrying a photo of your wife." He explained.
"Whoa, whoa whoa!" Neil suddenly said. "My wife?! What do she or I have to do with any of this?!" He exclaimed.
"We've got a young mother in a terrible emotional state, a deranged woman who is wandering around the city in the middle of winter with a newborn baby and said newborn baby is going to need feeding soon."
"I get that, but what does this have anything to do with my wife?!"
"See for yourself." The guard said and walked over to a monitor. Neil followed and saw it was a monitor for the security cameras. The guard pressed play and Neil's heart dropped.
He saw everything.
He saw the rabbit enter the hospital in everyday clothes with a large bag and walk around the hospital, he saw her duck into the laundry room to avoid a security guard coming down the hall, he saw her come out of the laundry room and go into a near by restroom, he saw exit the restroom without her bag and now dress in a nurse's uniform, he saw her go into Leo's room, he saw the rabbit take the baby out of the room as soon as Leo fell asleep, he saw her go in the bathroom and come back out dressed in her clothes with her bag and the baby and then he saw her walked right out the door.
"Lisa Summers identified your wife."...
