White Rabbit

Chapter 2 - Pedigree Pet

Arley growled at him.

He was getting on her nerves.

His constant compliments.

His refusal to drink river water.

"What are you thinking about?" He asked.

She glared at him.

"The many ways I can kill you." She replied.

"What have you got so far?" He tilted his head.

She snorted angrily.

"We're almost there." She said instead.

"Where?" Levi raised a brow.

"My rabbit hole in a sort." She shrugged, making him laugh.

"Is that so?"

"See for yourself." She shrugged.

An arrow whizzed through the air catching Arley's arm.

"DAMNIT DIANNA!" another arrow flew by. "BUNNY BURROW!"

The arrows ceased immediately.

Arley pulled on his rope and led him to an almost invisible extendable staircase made from branches and leaves.

"Come on." She led him up the staircase into a very well thought out house made from the same materials as the stairs.

"Arley your home!" A pretty girl felt her way towards them.

"Is she-" She glared icily at him.

The pretty girl hugged her tightly.

"Wait your names Arley?" He gaped at her.

She glanced at him with a bored look.

"Who's that?" The girl asked.

"Dianna, Petigree Pet. Petigree Pet, Dianna." She introduced them.

"Petigree Pet? That's new." He rose a brow.

"Yeah get used to it." She turned to Dianna. "He'll be...staying with us for a while."

She grimaced.

"Oh...ok we have enough room. What's your actual name?" Dianna asked him.

"Levi." He shook her hand.

"I prefer Petigree Pet." Arley shrugged.

"And I prefer Arley." He returned.

"Touche."

"What do you look like?" Dianna then turned to Arley. "Is he cute?"

Arley let out a small gag.

"Is that a no?" She gagged again louder this time.

She glanced at the pretend hurt look Levi had put on his face and rolled her eyes.

"You can have him then." Dianna giggled, and she let out a very dramatic gag.

"I'm not that bad." He protested. "Hey Dianna have you ever seen Arley?"

She glared at him but Dianna didn't seem to mind.

"Well no but..." She started.

He smiled, "do you want me to describe her to you?"

Arley shook her head in terror but Dianna seemed excited.

"Of course! I've always wondered!" Her smile tripled.
