New Story: Lithius
A new story. I sorta got stuck with the old one. I need character submissions again, in case I don't have permission anymore.

PROLOGUE PART 1
“Oh lord, help!” Two cloaked figures ran through the dark alleyway. It was downtown, and past midnight. Not a good place to be.
“Jeez, they’re still there!” One stumbled over some trash and fell, a loud thud echoing across the street.
“Come on, get up!” The second rabbit stopped and yanked his arm, trying to haul him back up. Instead they both fell and landed on a pile of garbage bags.
“No place to run now, is there.” A menacing growl came from around the corner, and a large, black figure stepped into view. It had a shaggy coat of fur, and sabre-like teeth lacerated with spit were brought to bear as he looked upon his two victims. It was neither rabbit nor turtle, but some unknown beast of the night. He shook his head in mock pity, long hair flying around his face. “Looks like I have dinner tonight.” He started towards them.
“Not quite.” The first rabbit sprang up and ripped the old cloak aside, revealing a tall rabbit of blue fur. The second rabbit leapt forward and smashed the beast in the face, before reaching under his cloak. “Here, catch!”
The beast staggered backwards and clutching his jaw, swung a beefy arm at his assailant. Not fast enough; he caught a kick to the mid-section and bounced off the alley wall. The blue-furred rabbit, fumbling with the caught sword, finally brought it to bear. Just as the creature was about to try another attack, he found a sword-point at his jugular.
“Now, you tell us what we need to know.”
