The rabbit looked at me helplessly. I looked away from the man and attempted to grin as if to say 'It's alright.' but judging from the wererabbit's tears, it didn't work. I struggled, flailed, bit, and clawed with all my might, but to no avail. The man yanked my mane and soon had me in the head lock position. His muscular arms tightened around my neck; they reeked of dried blood and other gruesome things. "Like I said kitten. Die nice and quiet like the good little pet you are."

I winced. I hated being called a pet. I gathered up all my leftover strength and roared. I had hoped to go out heroic. My 'dying' roar came out louder than expected. The entire barn shook and screaming of the rabbits and skinners alike sounded like a band of loud shrill flutes. The big brute of a man covered his ears in pain and staggered away from me blindly. I took the opportunity, closed my eyes, and did a pounce of faith. I felt something fleshy and muscular under my paws. I pressed down, the thing cracked and a scream followed. I opened my eyes and realized, I had landed with my heavy paws on the skinner's neck. I broke a man's neck.

The rabbit huddled in the corner, trembling. Exhausted, I gladly shifted back to human (halfling) form. I cautiously walked over to the rabbit. "Hey." I said lamely. The rabbit refused to look at me. My heart slowly started to tear in two... "I'm sorry if I scared you." I whispered. Not knowing what else to do, I sat down next to her. "I'm Regulus. What's your name?"

She turned and looked at me with big, frightened eyes. "I..." she paused. "I don't have a name. It's been so long..." Ah. She was raised in captivity.

I grinned and purred, "It's okay. I can give you a name." I thought for a while. "How about Fluffy? It's a bit generic, but..."

"I..."

I looked at her. "Hm?"

"I...like it. Fluffy. I really like it. Thank you." she broke down in tears. "Thank you! Thank you! It's been so long..."

"It's alright." I pulled Fluffy into a warm hug. "Everything's alright."
