Glass~Chapter 2

"Alison Hawthorne."

Huh!?!? My mom is dead? Harper? Murder? My thoughts were swirling around my head. I was visibly shaking, so Harper whispered in my ear, "You can go to your room." I did exactly what he told me, excusing myself from the officer's presence.

In his cage, sat my lop rabbit, Shiro. Nobody knew I had a rabbit. I adopted him 4 months ago. I carefully picked him up out of his cage and sat on my bed. Shiro sat in my lap. His presence seemed to calm me. I stopped shaking and I sighed. "I wonder what's going on..what do you think Shir?" I pet him. I picked him up again but this time he was in my arms. I walked out to the main room and saw Harper still talking with the same officer. When I was walking over to them Shiro snuggled into me. I pet between his ears and he relaxed. "Please I don't even know what she looks like!" Harper exclaimed to the officer. "As I said, I have to arrest you for questioning." The officer said sternly. Shiro perked his head up. Then my phone in my pocket rang. 'Zack. Great timing!' "Hold him please Harper." Harper cautiously held Shiro.

Me: "Hey Zack! Long time no talk!"

Zack: "Yes indeed. I know that you are in a bit of trouble now, hm?"

Me: "How did you- never mind. Yeah. Can you help me?"

Zack: "Of course. Put me on speakerphone."

I did what he said.

Zack: "Hello Officer. I am Zachary Wolfe. Owner of Wolfe Tech?"

The officer looked suspicious.

Zack: "From what I understand, you are arresting a minor for a false charge. Correct?"

Now the officer looked nervous. Shiro was looking at me.

Zack: "Correct. Don't arrest him."

The officer backed up. "Understood." The officer turned to leave.

Zack: "Goodday officer."

The officer left.

Me: "Thank you, Zack."

Zack: "No problem, Jaspar. Now if you would excuse me, I have to go back to work."

Me: "Got it. Seeya Zack!"

"Give me Shiro."  Harper looked confused as he stroked the fluffy rabbit. "The rabbit." He carefully handed me Shiro. I caressed his soft fur. "Did you ever wonder where our pizza is?" I shrugged. "Hey man at least you didn't get arrested." Harper looked at me. "How are you friends with the Zachary Wolfe?"

"Childhood friend. Known him before Lea and Bianca. He's only 4 years older than me."

"Since when did you have a rabbit?"

"Shiro. I got him four months ago. He was abandoned by his original owner." Shiro seemed to hear me, he snuggled into my chest.

"Well, he seems to like you." I nodded. "Yeah."

I yawned. "I'm going to bed. You know where the guest room is. And the fridge."

When I got to my room, I kissed Shiro on the head and carefully placed him down in his cage. He snuggled into his bedding. I smiled as I closed the cage. I changed into my pajamas and lay down in my bed.

~In dream~

I saw an outline of a figure in the distance. I cautiously walked up to it.

"Hello there Jaspar! I have been awaiting your arrival." The figure turned. He had white hair and pinkish-red eyes. I recognized him as albino.

"Who are you?" I asked the male in front of me. "I am Shiro. It is sad you do not recognize me. But alas, I was sent here. I am actually Dream Shiro." He bowed. He is my...rabbit? "Yes Jaspar. I am indeed your rabbit. I was sent to the dream realm to speak to you. I'm the one who made Mr. Wolfe call you."
