Chipster looked in horror at the building falling apart and catching fire. "All I did was pull a switch..." he said. Then, he realized that Acacia didn't know where Leo (or Mfrengle) were. Splitting up wasn't such a good idea after all... "But our priority right now should be to find Leo, and Mfrengle if he came with us. You coming Acacia?"

He ran towards the buildings, attempting to locate Leo by smell (he had not paid attention to which way his friend had gone). However, the smell of smoke was masking all others.

"LEOOOOO!!"

With long, slow steps, Leo entered the construction site. It was powerful. He still remembered the descriptions Adam's wrote in his book about this, but it felt so much more intense now, being so small. He felt dumbed with terror. After a few seconds he shook his head "not now, Leo...", he said to himself, swallowing his fears, to continue his way. He hopped sideways to one batch mixer, and a little earthy hill right next to it.

Sudddenly it hit him right into his face. There was a smell. A new, but now, as a rabbit, already known smell. That smell, when Chipster, Acacia, or the others were around, but a different one, in the same way. He approached closer to that muddy, wet hill, as the smell became stronger, nearly biting his nose. The upper layer of the hill was dry, so he dig, out of curiousity only. Suddenly, a wet, metallic smell, as he jumped backwards, nearly falling onto his own back. There was something white, a stick, but with... flesh? And fur! A few seconds passed, as he realized mentally finally, it was a bone, the rest of a rabbit. A front leg. His eyes widened. He was just about to run away, as he heared loud noises, freezing him for the moment. Trembling houses, a fire, even small flash fires. He looked at all sides, as he saw humans, running towards him, towards the construction side.

Without further thinking he ran like hell, towards the emergency spot. Any thought was annihilated. "Run, run, run", was the only thing in his head, as he stumbled upon Chipster, ran past him, giving him an alarming look, finally shouting his thoughts out loud:"Run! Run!... Run for your lives!"

Bright laughed. "You can have the rest," she said, pushing the potatoes towards Magic.

She considered telling him the dream, but decided against it. The entire group had to know, anyway, so might as well tell them all at once.

Speaking of the group.. where WAS everyone?

Chipster remained motionless as Leo ran past him, shouting at him to run. It took a few moments for his mind to process the information, and he too ran away.

"ACACIA! RUUUUUN! YOU TOO!!" he shouted as he ran past the desert rabbit.

He kept running without stopping towards the burrows. As he entered the hiding spot, he collided with Brighty and Magic, knocking them down. Not again...why do I keep crashing into everyone?

"Er...sorry..." he said, as he looked behind him, to see if Acacia and Leo had also made it back safely.

As Chipster-roo turns, he can see that Acacia is just behind him; He is grooming and biting his own back. Because a little fire fell on him, and although it is already turned off, it stung him.

In their mind I can only review, the moment of terror they passed and they had to escape abruptly. Fortunately they soon found Leo and ran together ... But what the hell had happened? How could something like this happen? They made it safely with Brighty and Magic, but it was still a bad experience. We simply went to investigate and it was a disaster.
Because of the sad thoughts of before, combined with surprise, shock and terror of fire and persecution. Acacia fell silent. And still nibbling his back.

Leo ran, like he never ran in his entire life. As a human, nor as a rabbit, as fast and far, his legs could burry him, he ran along with Acacia, being happy, they all found together at the burrows. They reached them so fast. He breathed heavily, his lungs burning, gasping for air.

It took him a few Moments, to calm down again, but mentally he couldn't relax, he only stared at the ground in front of his paws, looking back on and reappraising the past Happenings. Dear Frith... this was the pure Horror... that smell, the rotten flesh...He felt weak at the knees.

"Magic." Bright turned to the other rabbit. "When did the others leave? They've-" She froze, her fur crawling.

Screaming reached Bright's ears, and she sprung to her paws. "Snap, aaaaaaah!" she yelled as Chipster crashed into her and Magic, toppling them onto the ground.

"What happened?" Bright choked out as the others appeared. Thank God they were safe, but they looked like they'd barely escaped with their lives.

Chipster sighed in relief when he saw that both Acacia and Leo had also made it back safely. However, Acacia had a small burn on his back, and Leo was clearly exhausted and stressed. The whole visit to Sandleford had been a disaster. He turned back to Brighty, and hopped away, allowing her and Magic to get up.

"Er, the housing development at Sandleford is on fire. I did it." He took a few moments to calm down. "There wasn't anyone else there, apart from those stupid humans. I hope I didn't hurt you just now...anyway what do we do now? Do we do what that creepy white rabbit who randomly showed up and vanished last night said, and go to Watership Down? If your paw is all right, I think we should leave as soon as possible. That fire might spread..."

OOC: It's time for some drama. Do not be scared and follow the game. :blackberry3
----------------------------


Acacia was still biting and licking his back, the itching was not going. It was a rather unpleasant sensation. Then look at the poor fellow Leo, a rabbit as strong and brave as he is afraid ... Leo in fear? I could not believe it. He was sure that nothing could disturb him, but there was the gray rabbit, fearful for his life. It did not seem possible, the strongest rabbit in the group. It was a fortune that Magic, Dusty, Frengle and Brighty did not attend this trip: this was out of control.
Then Acacia ... For the first time he felt the fear of being a simple rabbit. He had succeeded in suppressing fear for his love of the species, but now he broke. Because of everything that happened and by his friend Leo, he was full of fear. Then he grits his teeth furiously and turns.

- Chipster !! What was the great idea of this trip? Why did we have to go to sandleford warren? * Look at the sub commander directly into the eyes * You knew perfectly ... We all knew perfectly, that this hutch, no longer existed! Only human constructions! ... Holy described it ... AHG !!! This horrible itch * Bites his back with despair and then returns with Chipster * What were you thinking, for Frith? What did you want to find in that place ?? !!! :moss

The deserted rabbit was frantic, clenching all his teeth and he could not stop observing Chipster ... He even blossomed, the instinct to attack him.

OOC: Ooooh, I love Drama. :bigwig3 I'm curious where this might lead!

Abruptly, Leo was thrown out of his own thoughts of the desaster he saw at the construction site, as Acacia was bellowing at Chipster. He seemed to blame him for all that has happened. He began to get afraid of the situaion, and was worried Acacia might even attack Chipster. He seemed menacing. No, no...

He was sure he wouldn't go that far. He rose his head and watched the both of them with a face of no Emotion, as he was tired. Tired of all of this. Phsycially, and even more mentally. Reality hit him hard like a claw. So he remained silent, contrary to his otherwise so talkative nature.

Chipster remained silent for a few moments after Acacia had finished screaming. He was unsure how to react. He had never seen Acacia (or any other FHC member, except maybe [...]) this angry before. Leo stood by without showing any emotions. Brighty and Magic, as far as he could see, were still behind him.

Chipster thought about his various options. Should he scream back? Remain calm? Run away again? He decided to try the second option, although he was doubtful he would be able to keep this up for a while, without drifting to the first or third options halfway through his reply.

"Acacia...I know Sandleford was destroyed. I just thought maybe we could find Dusty there. Or maybe Vesper, Claws, Rosie, Carnation or another member of the forum. Or Nose-in-the-Air or Pine Needles or whatever their names are in the book...in the end we found nobody. How could I have know that would be the case? Although, I did start the fire..." Only then did Chipster realize that he was (indirectly) responsible for Acacia's wound. He struggled to remain calm as the thought sank into his mind.

Bright stepped forward, until she was beside Chipster.

"It makes sense you guys are upset. But blaming each other and screaming at each other and definitely attacking each other will get us nowhere. This happened, and it went poorly. Let's stop looking back and just see what we can do to improve the future."

After a pause, Bright added, "I know Chipster, and he didn't mean harm. It isn't entirely his fault - he didn't know it was bad over there, and besides, you agreed to go with him. Please, guys. We have enough elil out there without making more in this group. We need to be united if we're going to survive and get back home.

"That having been said..." Bright looked around. "Anyone know how to heal a burn?"

Acacia listened to Chipster's every word attentively, but was only more angry, mainly due to the burn of his back, which continued to nibble ... This despaired.

-"You were unlikely to find anyone there Chipster, you can not find animals that were banished from human settlements." Remember the story of Holly in Sadlenford: Every rabbit and animal in the area was exterminated. And now you ... * Tighten his teeth hard * only you caused more disasters !!! HAAA !!!

Acacia is launched against Chips with all the intention to attack it, but immediately Brighty intervenes, reason why it stops immediately. She spoke softly, with words that made sense and truth. "Nobody's really to blame" "We have to be united" "We have enough enemies ..."

He was very close to attacking his own companions, Brighty were right in everything. But the feelings of before and the sting, by the burn made him crazy. The deserted rabbit, trembling against its instincts of being aggressive, turns and runs out of the den abandoning its companions. He runs at full speed towards where the small river is, thinking that it would take away the unbearable commotion and also needed to be alone for now, because his performance was terrible for his friends.
He stays for a few moments in the water, but the itch was still very bad, but at least it relieved that pain a little.

- What's happening to me? I'm not like that ... He ?? !!!

He suddenly realizes that someone is watching him from the edge of the lake. It's not an Elil, it's the skunk of last night; He was drinking water.

- Ho, it's you. The awkward rabbit of the scary gang. Mhmm ..

In other circumstances he would have wanted to talk to him, but it was not a good time.

Leo listened. He listened to Chipster, trying to explain himself, or maybe even apologizing. He listened carefully, and looked at him, but he wasn't in the mood to show any emotion, since he was feeling like falling down a neverending hole, ready to hit the hard ground at any time.
Then Bright spoke, her voice was soft, but the words couldn't reach his heart. He wasn't angry at anyone, but a little shocked about Acacia's ebullition. Never before has he seen him like that. It was scary.

Suddenly, Acacia ran away, nearly running him down. With luck he could get hold on his hind paws, before looking at the faces of the others. He sighed, and then left the burrow sitting himself in front of it, breathing in deeply. He also needed some time for himself. He just couldn't forget that image, mixed with that smell. He closed his eyes and only listened to the sounds of the forest.

As Acacia seemed about to attack, Chipster stiffened his front paws, ready to fight back if necessary However, as Brighty started to speak, Acacia seemed to calm down. She seemed to be doing a better job defending him than he himself...After she had finished, however, Acacia simply ran away. Leo followed soon afterwards, although he only made it as far as the exit. Chipster lied down with his front paws over his face, and sighed.

"I sure made a mess, didn't I? It really wasn't a good idea to go back to Sandleford...but it's too late to change anything now. I made this mess, I'm going to have to correct it to the best of my ability." He turned to look at Brighty, Magic and Mfrengle. "Is anyone else coming?"
