INT. A CABIN
FADE IN:
A rustic cabin in the woods, fairly dark inside. Rabbit fur coats hang on the walls amongst rabbit taxidermy. There are several cages where bunny ears can be seen.
Zoom in to reveal MAIN RABBIT twitching its nose and sniffing around the cage. The cage is empty except for the rabbit- no food or water.
HAND opens the latch on the cage and pulls MAIN RABBIT by its ears.
Reveal a table filled with sharp tools, primarily surgical equipment. HAND begins arranging the tools in the order it will use them.
Smash cut to the cages filled with rabbits lining the cabin walls (only their ears can be seen) as they all turn to face the back door of the cabin.
The back door swings open to reveal THE FIGURE, only a silhouette can be seen- a person wearing rabbit ears- as THE FIGURE’s appearance is construed by the strong light flooding in behind her.
THE HAND, visible from the foreground, drops the tool it is holding in shock, and scrambles to pick it back up as THE FIGURE pulls a bunny sword from a holster on her back. As she is doing this, THE FIGURE steps into the light, revealing her face. Zoom in on a very determined look as she holds the sword.
THE HAND, still holding the tool, begins to back away as THE FIGURE gets closer, holding the sword defensively.
THE FIGURE begins opening latches on the bunny cages (still on ears can be seen) and they begin to hop onto the ground, and charge towards THE HAND.
MAIN BUNNY, surrounded by surgical equipment, hops onto the floor and out the back door THE FIGURE came in.
Zoom in on THE FIGURE as she swings her sword at THE HAND.
THE HAND drops to the floor, palm up, stiff.
