"You can't! This one is vicious!"
"Little Yellow poop, what happened to you?" His elders quickly seized him from the female's hold and checked the injuries all over his body.
"It's her. She did this to me!" Little yellow poop pointed Vierre who was watching their get-together.
His elders glanced at the female who don't possess any single muscles on her body, and shook their heads. "Are you okay? Did you encounter those beasts that spew stuff that affects the mind?"
Little yellow poop was speechless. "I said it's her! I only encounter a big bird and a snake!"
"Oh! So that's it!" His elders finally realized the cause of his delusions and patted his shoulders to calm him down.
Little yellow poop felt their expressions were not right and accused the vicious female again. "You can't be fooled by her appearance. She hit me multiple times with great strength making my face bruised."
His elders glanced at his pig-liked face and frowned at his baseless accusations.
"You can't use the female to cover up you're embarrassment. We all understand the shame you're going through from unable to defend yourself against the other beasts." The elders rubbed his furry head.
Little Yellow poop gritted his teeth and looked at the female who tormented him. His chest heaved up and down before he felt some dark spots began to dance in his vision. It seemed that the effect from the beatings got delayed.
"Uh…" Vierre wanted to explain what was going on but the Little Yellow poop had already fainted from so much anger.
"Little Yellow poop!"
No matter how they shook and nudged him, the little guy wasn't responding so the Elders decided make one of them sent him back into the den.
So each one was looking at each other and the beautiful female in front and at Little yellow poop.
And they soon started shoving his unconscious body to one person another until the elder was dizzy. "Stop!"
Vierre clamped her mouth and waited for the Elder to say something.
Watching the little female get frightened by his voice, he quickly cleared his throat. "May we know what the female's name is?"
"Vierre" She answered retrieving her rude hand. "Do you know how which way is to the stream atop the mountain?"
"Why is Vierre asking for the stream's direction?"
"I don't know which way to go."
"Are you lost? Then how Little yellow poop get you here?"
"He took me away by force!" Vierre recalled the unpleasant memory and sent the unconscious rabbit a glare. In response, the rabbit stirred in his sleep after feeling some threatening vibes coming from somewhere else.
All of the elders spared Little Yellow poop disappointing glances and quickly dropped him on the dusty ground. Such impolite rabbit! He doesn't deserve the female's care.
No one questioned how he ended that way. They were all invested in the beautiful female's soft and lovely voice.
"I deeply apologized for my clansman's rude behaviour. Is there anyway Vierre can forget this matter?"
Vierre rubbed her chin and nodded. "Can you take me to the stream?"
The elders were in difficult situation due to her request. "It's not that we don't want to but there are some beasts lurking around. The main force had been out and still did not come back. So, if Vierre is willing to wait, I'll have my main force accompany you to the mountain top once they're here."
Vierre processed his words and weighed the pros and cons before agreeing. "Alright!"
Seeing the female in happy mood, the elders also smiled and began to drag Little Yellow poop. "Then, waiting in here would not be good. How about Vierre follow us inside? We'll notify you if there is any news."
"Sounds good for me." Vierre followed them in the tunnels.
A few minutes passed before they reach the end of the tunnel.
Vierre was taken aback because she didn't expect that the scenery. For a while she thought that she was seeing a primitive community. There was a huge space similar to a plaza in front that was unbelievable just recalling how small the tunnel was, and on the walls of the cave that seemed to be divided by four floors, there were holes big enough for two people to enter at the same time. It was like an apartment-type structure.
The rabbit clan does not possess any great strength and ferocity but they were full of wisdom, nimble in movements and always lived in great numbers. Unfortunately, due to the disease that had taken many females' lives in the whole region, their numbers had dwindled and every beast clan began to implement multiple mating partners just to keep up with the unbalance ratios of female to male.
"Vierre, pardon me but I don't know anyone from the rabbit clans that lived near the stream on top. So, where exactly is your tribe located?"
"This…" Vierre was somewhat conflicted. Should she tell him that she was a human being that got swindled by the system to dress up as a rabbit? Or made up some sort of lie?
"Did you by any chance, stray away from your tribe?" The elder inquired. Just looking at her exquisite features at one glance indicated she was a precious female of someone's tribe. This kind of females were often hidden deep and arranged for the chief. The elder blinked at his thoughts and began to form plans in the head.
The chief was out with the main force if he could persuade this female to take the chief as his spouse, they could possibly gain alliance from her tribe.
Vierre heard his question. She didn't know anyone here at all. "Indeed and I forgot how to get back."
The elder was greatly relieved at her reply. "How sad. Anyway, I will arrange you a room to rest while the chief is not back yet."
"Chief?" Vierre's ears were piqued at the term.
"Ahahaha. Yes, Chief. Our Chief is the strongest in the clan. He can foraged the beast-infested forest and provide us with enough food. Our Chief is the greatest." Hearing such shameless promotion from him, she let out a rigid smile. Darn it Uncle! That's my line of business!
The elder did not notice her stiffness. His mind was only occupied on how to uplift his Chief's image in front of this female.
"Our Chief is also the most handsome. The females of the tribe all wanted to be his mate. Luckily, Chief was busy and didn't get swayed by them." The elder continued. His enthusiasm livened up just imagining this female will give up to some litters in the future.
"Hahahaha" Vierre released a series of fake laughs to get along with him.
Living under someone's roof you need to establish some rapport.
Just thinking how this middle aged man yapped about someone's like his own son, she listened attentively like how she endured her superiors' rants.
