The bunnies watched as the “Arrival of the heroes” movie was played on the spherical screen. In it, four hero rabbits… Well, four weird bunnies appeared…

One of the bunnies had two spider-like legs growing from its back and pincers as hands. Another one looked like a combination of a black dog and a rabbit it had golden engravings and bandages. The third one had long creepy ears and eyebrows, its tattered clothes and sandals made it close to a beggar. The fourth one was a bombshell that wore a skimpy bunny-girl dress with fairy decorations and colorful butterfly wings.

“Wow look at that spider bunny!” Nick shouted.

“The fourth one resembles Cinna… However, it looks like she added pool floaters and paint all over her body…” Sweet murmured.

“That’s not me…” Cinna expressed herself in disgust.

“Wow! That’s a hot-sexy bunny for you!” Jasper whistled but then looked at the long-eared bunny while frowning. “Wait! What the hell are those supposed to be?! Shouldn’t the hero resemble us?” Exclaimed Jasper with a jarring expression.

“Eh, I don’t know…” Dude almost said his alias but then directed towards Normal… “Normal, what happened?”

“There isn’t enough power for a complete simulation of the heroes. It’s suggestable to try using historical or previous reference materials to reduce the output requirement.” Normal’s voice came from the surrounding.

“Wait, we need the movie to look right! Is there any other problem with the planned sequences?” Dude’s voice became flustered while questioning.

“No problem with the important sequences. But making changes to the heroes will affect them. The heroes' input was delivered by Dank and it took a while to make a representation as suggested.” Normal answered.

“Then…” Dude’s tone changed and it was directed with an apologetic tone towards the bunnies. “We are having some technical difficulties. You guys will have to watch the scene with those fake heroes… Please don’t mind them too much.”

“I think it’s better if you just make the heroes invisible,” Sweet suggested.

“I concur, I don’t like how that lady bunny looks like…” Cinna added.

“Eh, she looks nice!” Jasper interjected.

“Look at the small bunny! It’s a real spider!” Nick blurted happily.

“You guys… Well, that’s two vs two… And no, that small bunny is a crab. It has pincers, it’s not a spider.” Dude expressed thoughtfully before continuing after discussing something with Normal. “Bunnies' it seems harder to make things anew… Even making them invisible consumes more amount which is strange but a fact… So let’s leave the heroes like that and resume the movie.”

The four seated spectators nodded. Cinna and Jasper being a bit rejecting about the outcome. However, they garnered at the screens with patience.

Four weird bunnies entered the room with the constellations while scouting the surroundings. The crab bunny was bubbling and nodding as it kept doing an “LEP” noise. The weird bunny with Buddhist garments kept praying with closed eyes and walking in circles. The dog-like bunny had his arms across his chest but remained silent while trying to sniff some clues. The last one danced and sang princess songs like a pop star showing her glamour and sexy attributes…

“Please censor that bunny!” Cinna couldn’t remain calm and expressed.

“Please don’t!” Jasper countered.

“Normal, can you skip?” Dude asked.

“Changing the movie or Pausing It will not affect consumption. However, skipping highly detailed scenes like this will deplete the required energy for support. Systems have been overheating, using the redirected energy can create a counterbalance. This might create cracks on your last experiment’s barrier. Do you wish to continue?” Normal's robotic speech resounded.

“No…” Dude’s seemed to surrender.

“Experiment?” asked Sweet.

“Nothing important. It doesn’t have much to do with your quests so don’t worry.” Dude stated.

The four bunnies in the movie kept trying to decipher the puzzling information in the signs and constellations but weren’t able to at the end. With failure befalling the heroes, a red rock with a green quotation mark teleported to their surroundings inside the movie. It gave a majestic glow as a resounding male voice filled with excitement entered their long ears.

“Hello, heroes!!! Did you enjoy my test? I am the only one to ever have completed it!” Dude’s doppelganger in the movie exclaimed after its magical appearance. This alter-ego of Dude wore a mustache and sovereign garbs making him look like a king.

“Lep… Lep…” Crabby sounds came from the small rabbit.

“Fa la la la la la!” The female bunny singed and swirled around with her glamorous body.

“I am a lotus, I can’t delve into temptation.” The monk bunny with tattered clothes sat on a lotus couch it carried on its back. It murmured a weird phrase while closing its eyes. However, even with those Sanskrit’s, he peeked constantly at the dancing bunny.

“Growl… Growl…” The black dog bunny was like a wild dog as it barked in a strange language. His clothes were made of a multitude of bandages and an armor made of many small beetles that squirmed with their black luster.

“Oh! these heroes are as stupid as I expected. You need some teachings as quick as possible!” The red rock voiced as it hovered over them.

“Wait! Stupid?! You are saying you were expecting us to be idiots?!” Jasper couldn’t stay still and whined towards the surroundings. The scene was stopped again and dude appeared from thin air.

“Wait, it’s not like that. It was a report I received from your previous adventures, it said that you guys were…” Dude tried to calm down the grumpy rabbit.

“Mr. Dude, can you tell me who the person that sent you such report was?” Cinna’s eyes had a weird spark as she questioned the ‘real’ flying rock.

“It’s better if I don’t… It isn’t that much important you, know?” Dude gave a flustered vibration as it hovered.

“I think it is!” Cinna retorted.

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

“I can tell you but promise me you won’t do anything to it.” Dude pleaded.

“Yay! It must be a cool guy to have such interesting ideas.” Nick yelled.

“Well, he has good taste…” Jasper expressed as he gazed towards the busty female bunny in the movie.

Dude made three applauses while crushing like a toy magnet with Normal. The sound was like an alarm and the vibration revealed a little door over the space. The dark inside had a small figure with the appearance of a frog hiding. The animal was green colored, it jumped and landed in front of the bunnies while doing a small curtsy.

“So heroes… This little guy here is called Dank. It is a sad guy. And everything he sees is turned into a meme. That’s why even a rat will be turned into a crab without noticing.” Dude explained.

“That was sarcasm. He meant that even a bunny could be turned into a crabbit.” The frog with a sad expression chided at Dude’s comments.

“Damn… Why did you explain that?” Dude whispered towards the frog.

“Stop begging me, it makes you look dusty.” The frog countered its master.

“Why you…” Dude’s surface became flushed in red while rotating over the frog.

“Wait, did you call us rats?” Jasper interrupted with anger when he organized Dude’s and the frog’s dialog.

“No… I was just…. Making an analogy.” Dude replied.

“He was testing your IQ, no worries since you don’t have enough.” The frog added with a sad intonation.

“Not enough what?” Jasper glared at the weird frog.

“Not enough achievements… Since you guys need to make yourselves renowned!” Dude added before the frog added another thing against him.

“I see…” Jasper calmed down with a thoughtful expression.

“What’s an IQ?” Sweet asked while Jasper tried to look like he knew what it was.

“Don't you worry your pretty little head about it. The operative word is little by the way.” The frog murmured. Neither Sweet nor Jasper understood the gist of those words. Instead, they thought it was referencing the pretty head of a bunny. It was a compliment.

“It’s something done to check on the heroes' abilities, it doesn’t matter much... Just… Stop paying attention to that frog.” Dude hovered strangely in the air while trying to change the subject. With such in mind, he ended moving above Cinna. “Hey, didn’t you want to know this guy?”

“Eh…Right!” Cinna remembered and then glared at the rock. “Are you the reason why the heroes in the video are like that? What sort of information did you give?” Cinna asked.

“Well, you guys were too normie to be funny. As they say, no money, no life. So I made you all have a lil’ spice of dankness and edginess. That way the movie would incur on earnings instead of breaking the Cinemas.” The frog responded with indifference.

After a long while discussing with this green guy, the bunnies’ learned that they couldn’t win over it. They ended up begging Dude to take the thing out or they would spend all their life discussing in vain. Knowing the frog wasn’t a pleasant event as they though. It had some cool games and images, it even gave them paper money to play them. However, the games it had were rigged! Something they couldn’t win or have fun with. They were addictive but maddening and degrading. With many boos and angry stares, the green frog forced its way towards the so-called ‘background’. With its departure, Dude and the bunnies’ forgot their experience and continued their previous conversation.

“Why did you create such a weirdo?” Asked Jasper.

“I needed someone to control the merchants… So I needed a special helper to control the ‘bank’.” Dude shrugged as a hovering rock would.

“That guy is a genius at turning black into white and robbing people…” Cinna lamented. She learned an unforgettable lesson. Never fight with bankers, you will lose all your energy and win nothing.

“That’s why it works…” Sweet sighed.

“Lep.” Nick imitated the ‘crabbit’ and tried to join the conversation. He didn’t know what the others spoke, yet oddly enough his ‘yes’ was in the right place.

After another pause Dude continued the movie. The red rock in it released a majestic glow to the virtual heroes. Contrary to the introduction that Sweet and the others received, everything here had an extra touch in a godly manner. The rock in the movie looked like a king. It had incredible sound effects and Photoshoping. In addition to its mustache and sovereign cape, a golden crown burned like a sun over it. It was a typical cliché where the heroes arrived at the king chambers. Just that here, the king was a rock, the heroes were rabbits and the palace was a tree and a cinema.

“I am the great tree’s core. I am the creator of the tree and the Green Pea Plains. Every root of mine ends in the grasses, lamps and the smaller trees you see. I give birth to life and I am the plains, its beginning, and its end. When you entered my domain, I already knew of your arrival. Alas, my time is running out as I was over-ambitious with my current project. Thus oh mighty heroes, I beseech your unique help in a quest fraught with valor and discipline.” The mustache in the rock vibrated as it spoke to the heroes.

“This monk doesn’t have much, but it will help you in your quest to overcome…” The monk rabbit added his approval. However, it didn’t end his wordings as it shut its eyes in a haste upon noticing the female rabbit’s fan-service. The view forced him to change the last word. “… Temptation”

“Lep… Lep” The crab rabbit raised its pincers. It opened and closed them as they created clapping sounds. It also moved a step to one side and the other like a balancing drunkard.

“Life should be lived like dreams dancing and showing yourself to the world. A pixie’s wish of fulfilling adventures and becoming the fairies’ sovereign!” The female fairy-bunny whirled and danced to her notes. With every spin and turn, she released a burst of creepy laughter that created resonance with her high pitched singing. Obviously, she didn’t stop to overdo some poses and show her excessive assets.

“Oh, great king of the Green Pea Plains! What happened that you had such a disaster occur in your land?” The hero with beetle armor and jackal head expressed. It was weird how it could now speak after some lectures by the stone. It turned out it wasn’t a simple dog.

A sound of cursing could be heard being muffled by someone lowering the sound in the background. It seemed that the sovereign in the movie was going to say something like ‘Do I really have to leave my destiny in these idiots' hands… and pincers?!’ However, since the rock didn’t have a mouth the watchful bunnies in the seats didn’t notice anything else than a DJ switching soundtrack.

The rock in the movie hovered above the weird heroes. Getting the approval of them and being questioned the reason why its kingdom and time was in dire, the red rock continued its information discourse.

“The Green Pea Plains is one of the places with the best development in these lands. It was all thanks to this King’s administration. More and more people, creatures and lifeforms arrived in search of our merchandise.

The trading routes, the number of helpers in my lands increased by the day. Everything was part of the green energy system that I created. It made it possible to create threads, weave products, and use sugar in many advanced ways.”

“Helpers?” Asked the monk hero.

“The lifeforms here are made from my fruits. They are constructors, the type you would call super-helpers. They help me carve engravings or use the plains materials to create the structures that allow this valley to exist. Believe it or not, it was once a big lake. Now, thanks to liquid and wind pumping systems, the water was redirected and the lake became a valley with a huge plain in its bottom.

The helpers also eat the leaves that become old, making my body and the whole domain cleaner. It’s all a big cycle where they help me and I ensure their survival. In my life-projects, I decided to grow and create new things based on my knowledge. The Green Pea Plains became a major exporter of fruits and woven products. Even paper and many life-necessities were first developed here.

A long-time after the first partnership with Halloween Town, we saw new contracts rise with the Cheese Mountain area and the Piñata Desert. It allowed us to expand towards Caramel Falls and other distant zones of the world…” Dude’s alter ego explained.

“So the helpers are your workers?” Asked the dog hero.

“Exactly. It was a well-developed society with ways of transport, logistic structures, politics, economics, we even had our own news channel. But I became ambitious and greedy. I wanted to be able to leave my domain so I created a big experiment. A miscalculation, however, made me lose my ruling.”

“Is this movie according to the quest? It’s still an autobiography…” Jasper murmured.

“It is an autobiography but things are too long so it’s better to tell it like a movie.” Dude’s voice answered.

“I still don’t like that female bunny, good thing that Nick isn’t looking there but towards the weird crab.” Cinna rebuked.

“Lep!” Nick uttered while following the crabbit’s dialogue.

“I am getting confused when he starts saying this ‘Lep’ slang,” Sweet said but chuckled as if showing it was fun for him.
