February 23rd, 2006
Today, I was born.
I was curious about the world and went for a little hop. I learned that I am one of three bunnies that might get written for a new writing challenge. I hope I get chosen. I want to be written. I just know that I have it in me to be a really good bunny for my mistress.
Oh! She's picking one of the other bunnies up! She's sending him to her 'beta'. What is a 'beta'? It sounds like a type of carrot. Why is he getting a carrot? Does that mean she has chosen him? I want a carrot too. I want to be chosen.

A beta is not a carrot. A beta is someone who shoots bunnies and sends back a headstone.
I was very sad about it and went to sit on my mistress's foot for comfort. She picked me up and I was scared she was going to send me to her beta too, but she smiled at me and gave me a cuddle.
I love my mistress. I want to be a good bunny for her.

My mistress is writing me! I am so happy! She picked me up today and smiled at me and said I was a good little bunny and might make a funny fic. So she started to write me. I gave her everything I had and she was happy. The fic made her laugh. I like it when she laughs. It makes me feel all warm and happy inside. I gave her a good chapter and she was very pleased.
I am very tired now. I did my very best and it took a long time. Over five hours. Now I am so tired I can only flop across her lap. She is petting me and it feels so good. She offered me a carrot but I am not hungry. Just... tired...
What does my mistress mean when she wonders how the rest of it will go?
I have to give her more?!
I feel faint. Everything is going dark.
But I will... try to be... a good... bunny...

I collapsed over a week ago. My mistress said I exhausted myself. I went into something called a 'coma' and her beta pulled my 'life support'. That does not sound good, but my mistress said it showed them that I was breathing on my own and I woke up just after that. So it must be good.
My mistress has told me to rest, but she has a deadline for the challenge so I will do my best to help her. I want to be a good bunny for her.
I gave her a few pages of ficcage today. I worked very hard but I am still weak and ill and I could not manage any more than that. I feel sad.
Maybe tomorrow I will feel better and I will be able to give her some more. I am tired now.

I feel better today.
I gave my mistress the rest of chapter 2 and my mistress gave me a pat and some carrot soup. She said I was a very good bunny. I was happy.
She gave me a cuddle and I felt so good. I gave her another chapter right away! Maybe I should have waited until I had a bit more strength though. I feel tired again now. The room is spinning. I think I will lie down.
I am a good bunny. I must not... give... up...

I collapsed again. I have been unconscious for a whole week.
My mistress cried when I woke up. She has me on a liquid carrot drip and she sits by my bed, patting me so gently.
I want to be a good bunny for her. She says I am a good bunny and that I should not try so hard because I keep exhausting myself. But I know she is worried. Time is passing and the challenge will end soon. I must be strong.
I did my best and gave her another chapter. That is chapter 4.
She liked it very much. She is cuddling me. I am... very happy but... very... tired...

I was in a 'coma' again. I think it is like a very deep sleep. My mistress's beta pulled my 'life support' again, to see if it worked like it did last time. It did. I woke up.
I do not feel well. I am very tired, but I know I must be strong.
My mistress is giving me cuddles and pats and telling me not to worry. That it does not matter if I do not give her the rest of the story in time. She says that she does not mind if she does not enter the challenge. She knows that I am trying my best and she would rather have a healthy bunny and not enter the challenge, than an ill bunny and enter it.
I gave her everything I had and managed to give her another chapter. I am not feeling so ill now. My mistress cuddled me the whole time and I feel warm. She is telling me to rest and I will. Just for a little while.
I want to be a good bunny.

I have been asleep for a couple of days and I feel a bit stronger now.
I felt my mistress edit chapter 5. I think that was why I woke. My mistress said she saw me twitch a whisker as she sent the edited chapter to her beta.
She said I was a very good bunny and she is proud of how hard I am trying for her.
I am still a bit tired, but I managed to give her a few pages of chapter 6. I am sleepy again now.

I am now back on solid carrots and feeling much better.
I gave my mistress the rest of chapter 6 today. She smiled and cuddled me. I am happy now.
My mistress is worried though. As am I. I do not have a good ending for this fic. I did have an idea, but my mistress says it will not fit the challenge if we do it that way.
She is going to ask her beta about it tonight. Her beta is very wise. Perhaps they will find a way that it will work. I hope so.
I am a little tired. I think I will have a nap while my mistress speaks with her beta.

I gave my mistress a few paragraphs of chapter 7 today, but I tired after that. So much effort for so little. I am disappointed.
My mistress smiled and cuddled me. She said I was a good bunny and that she knew I would give her more soon. I hope she is right. Time is running out.
I am worried. I still do not know the ending to this story.

I have been sleeping a lot. Mistress says I need to take a break, but there is no time to do that. The deadline is in under a week now.
I gave my mistress all I could, but it was only a couple of pages before I grew tired. I had a little nap and then I felt better, so I gave her the rest of the chapter.
My mistress is very happy with me. She cuddled me and kissed my nose. She said I am a very good bunny.
I am sleepy again, but happy.
I think I know the ending now.

I woke up this morning feeling really good. My mistress gave me a carrot and then we wrote, and wrote, and wrote, and wrote! It took us seven hours and three bunches of carrots, but we did it.
The fic is finished.
My mistress put 'end' on it and something wonderful happened.
All the plot was out of me and I became a real bunny!
My mistress says that she knows someone who will take good care of me and love me as I deserve to be loved.
She hugged me tightly and kissed my nose, then sat me on a cushion to rest after all my hard work.
She also gave me a carrot. It smells very tasty.
I am so very happy. I finished the fic for my mistress.
I think I will go for a hop after my carrot.
I hope everyone who reads it enjoys the fic my mistress and I wrote.
