Bunnie vs. the Specter
                fanfic by Daniel Wheeler


Prolog:  Necroviar Rises

        In a Haunted Zone in the Southeast Great Unknown, there was an
urn with forbidding faces adorning its sides and a Yellow Chaos Emerald
decorating the top.  The Emerald was meant to prevent the forces of evil
from awakening the spirit within.  Unfortunately, this was not to be.  A
bolt of lightning hits the Emerald and opens the urn, releasing the
specter within.

        The Specter, Necroviar by name, started to wreak havok in the
villages nearby.  It soon attacked a visitor from the Southern
Territories.  The visitor barely escaped with his life as he found a
biplane and rode it to Mobotropolis to find Bunnie.  She's the only one
who can stop Necroviar now!


Chapter 1:  Bunnie Hears of Necroviar's Threat

        The young rabbit who escaped the deadly undead raced to a place
near the palace and asked Sonic, Sally, and King Acorn where Bunnie is. 
Bunnie pops up from the gardens and asked "Who would want sumthin' from
li'l ole me?,"  The rabbit, Chris by name, told of the specter Necroviar
and his threat to the Great Unknown.  Bunnie remembered Necroviar in the
past as a powerful Necromancer and that one of her ancestors took him
down centuries ago.  Bunnie was up to the challenge.

        Chris takes Bunnie to his biplane and flies her to the location
where he saw Necroviar emerge.  The place was an obvious region of burial
grounds.  It would be most likely that he reanimated several of the dead
to serve as soldiers in his army.  She shuddered and said "Ah guess that
this spook has been busy."  He was:  He wanted to summon the Shadows of
Dark Mobius so not only could darkness be returned to Mobius, but that he
may be returned to life as of the living.

        Bunnie and Chris learned of this plot by eavesdropping on a few
skeleton troops.  "So that's Necroviar's plan," said Chris, "To get those
nasty Shadows into our world."  "Well, it just isn't gonna happen!,"
Bunnie said with a tone of determination.  She takes down the skeleton
guards and headed toward a fort to see what she could see.


Chapter 2:  A Secret Tunnel to the Mountain

        In the fort, Bunnie and Chris were tackling some skeleton guards
and finding some clues to what else he has planned or his method of
bringing the Shadows into this world.  Suddenly, a zombie grabs Chris and
drags him off to the Undead Colonel's Quarters.  Bunnie was swift to
follow.

        As soon as Bunnie approached the door of the quarters, two more
zombies ambush the young rabbit heroine.  But a good spinning kick takes
down the duo of undead.  Bursting into the Colonel's Quarters, Bunnie
prepares to fight.  The Colonel was ready, too!  He had a weapon made of
rusty iron.  Bunnie dodges the blows and takes down the leader in six
kicks.

        Chris came out of hiding and revealed a secret tunnel to
Necroviar's Crypt in the mountains.  Bunnie and Chris take the tunnel to
find and take down the specter.  But Necroviar was not without resources:
 He sends some mummies that were buried with him to stop the two.  They
were quick to obey their master.

        As the two rabbits went deeper into the tunnel, Chris spotted the
enbalmed antagonists.  "Look!," he cried to his friend, "Mummies!  Dead
ahead!"  Bunnie sighed "Did ya'll hafta mention the word 'dead'?"  But
all she had to do was grab a piece of each monster's bandages and pull,
unraveling them.  With the mummies back to their rest, Bunnie and Chris
continued to the mountains.


Chapter 3:  The Mountains

        Emerging from the tunnel, Bunnie and Chris find themselves on the
foothills of the mountains.  The tunnel gave them a head start in
climbing.  They only have a slightly shorter distance to travel before
reaching the crypt.  Chris gets out his climbing gear and shares it with
Bunnie as they climb up the mountain.

        Suddenly, Skelebats popped out of nowhere and assaulted the two
rabbits.  Bunnie gave one group a good kick while Chris used a knife to
fend off another swarm.  Braving more skelebats on the way up, Bunnie and
Chris eventually made it to the top of the mountains.  A cave lay open to
the two hares.  "Chris!," Bunnie cried "That there cave must be where the
crypt is!"  "Took the words right out of my mouth, Bunnie!," replied
Chris as they journeyed into the cavern.

        But as they went into the cave, a host of mummies ambush the
heroic hares.  Fortunately, a torch was nearby, and Bunnie knew that most
undead have a fear of flame.  So Bunnie snatched the torch and held it
nearby.  The mummers shied away at the flame as the two rabbits trekked
toward the crypt.  But one mummy tried to be a "macho mummy" and
foolishly charged toward them.  Bunnie simply touched his foot with the
flame and the enbalmed antagonist went up in smoke.  The path to the
crypt was now clear.


Chapter 4:  Necroviar's Crypt

        The crypt was a desolate place with art on the wall representing
a Stygian world.  Skull-like lamps with flames in the eyes light the
path.  And the air is thick with the bitter smell of pure evil.  Chris
and Bunnie need to brave these elements if there is any hope of stopping
Necroviar.  The halls are guarded by skeletal knights.  Bunnie kicked as
many guards as she could to crumble them to the dust they came from.

        Chris caught the scent of Necroviar, which was somewhat like a
mix of a beyond-the-grave stench and a smell of incense.  "Follow me!,"
shouted Chris as they traveled.  Chris followed his nose through the
trap-filled corridors of the crypt into his chamber.  There was a portal
there, obviously to release the Shadows of Dark Mobius.  Bunnie knew what
she had to do:  Stop them as soon as possible!


Epilog:  Necroviar Is Sent To The Dark World

        "Stop right there, you see-through scallion!  Ah'm puttin' a stop
to yo plans!," shouted Bunnie.  Necroviar turned and saw the heroine hare
in his chamber.  "This is an outrage!," Necroviar snapped.  "Where are my
mummy and skeleton guards?"  "We took care of them as we will of you!,"
replied Chris.  "NEVER MIND!," roared the sinister specter, "The Shadows
will deal with you!"  And so he tried to hurry the chant up.

        Bunnie took this opportunity to knock the incense brazier onto
him.  The flames sent him screaming into the portal.  The portal then
closed and the two rabbits made it back to Mobotropolis.  Sonic
congratulated the two for stopping the terrible undead spirit.  "Aww...
I... Oh my!," said Bunnie as she blushed.
