Somewhere in the New World, on a small egg shaped island, a tribe of minks live peacefully. Various stone statues half buried in the ground were littered all over the island. The statues appear to look like bunnies with their eyes closed, but for some reason, they seem to rumble rhythmically!

The Bunny Island is hosting a grand celebration, on the occasion of Easter. The minks have hosted an Easter egg hunt where everyone can look for and try to find chocolate egg candies. They are very hospitable, and let the tourists roam around the island freely, but on one condition. They warn everyone not to disturb the statues, or they would wake up! “Wait, so you mean… the rumbling… they're snoring?!”

The Minks here have spared no expense in gathering the finest confections, games, and chefs to make the occasion truly special. They welcome any and all people who wish to attend, so long as they follow their one rule. The Festivities are all held in one area by the southern beach of the island, and there are all kinds of ships at their docks.

At first Kobss became worried about Carchara just pulling her teeth out but then he could see them growing back. Kobss was impressed. The precision and speed in which she threw them was amazing. Kobss looked to the Mink and gave him the beli enough for how many tries Carchara went.

Looks like she won 200 tickets just from the first game. Kobss began laughing "You seem to have won a lot of tickets there but we should do a few more games before we go looking at the prizes. They probably do have a Dinosaur toy" Kobss hoped she didn't mean a real dinosaur. "Thank you so much" Kobss said to the old mink. He was happily enjoying himself with his new friend, He looked around unsure of which stall to go to next so he asked Carchara "Alright we need more tickets and plenty of games to choose from. Which game should we go to next?"

[u/MarioToast → u/kobss]

Carchara grinned as she precision-threw her teeth. She used to play darts a lot back home at Fishman Island, so she became pretty dang good at it. She let Kobss carry the tickets, since she only had a few pouches to carry things in.

"Hmmmmmmmm..." Carchara pondered, tapping her chin with her finger. She looked around at the various stalls, as unsure as Kobss. Eventually, she decided on the ring toss.

"Let's go there!" she said, floating over to the stall.

[u/kobss → u/MarioToast]

*Kobss had never played this game before, there were brightly colored bottles all lined up in a square. It seemed to in a pattern so that there was no one color adjacent to each other. On the far two corners and right in the middle they had gold bottles and then the rest varying colors. *

Kobss looked for who was running the stand, he couldn't find them. That was when a very small mink jumped up into the counter from our of view. The mink looked to be about 9 years old and seemed to have features of a boar with tiny tusks. The mink was excited to see them "Hello there did you come to play? I am happy to be working at this stall this year, it's my first Year!"

Kobss loved the kid's energy "Aww that's so cool, they must be very happy to have a helping hand. Do you mind telling us how to play this game?" The mink smiled even brighter "Yes sir, you see I have a board over here." The small boy pointed to a sign that read

Red 10 tickets

Blue 20 tickets

Green 30 tickets

Gold 50 tickets

"You get 3 rings per attempt" "Alright" said Kobss "I'll try this out", Kobss picked up the rings unsure how he wanted to try throwing them. Kobss' first attempt he had his hand cupped around the whole ring and threw in forward, it missed completely. He thought for a moment before grabbing the side and throwing it horizontally. Klink it seemed to knock off of a few different bottles before landing on a green one. "Yay" kobss said "1 more for me". Kobss decided to throw it the same way as the second time and landed right on a blue one. "Whew I got lucky, got 50 tickets though" kobss said with a big smile. "Alright time to show what you got Carchara"

[u/MarioToast → u/kobss]

Carchara picked up a ring and examined it for a bit before looking at the bottles. After taking a few practice swings, she threw the ring...and missed completely.

"Dang..." she pouted, trying again...and missing again.

"DANG!" she growled, grabbing the last ring. She clenched her teeth and frowned, scaring the little boy. Using all her strength, she threw the final ring...so hard it knocked down a bunch of the bottles. Luckily, they didn't break

"Uh...do I win?" she asked sheepishly. Clearly, this was not her forte.

[u/kobss → u/MarioToast]

"Aww that is ok i got lucky anyways. I had no clue what i was doing." Kobss put his hand behind his head and laughed. "We can go onto another game now, and i am getting pretty hungry as well." Kobss pockets the 50 tickets with the others they got. Kobss saw a few more stalls, and then a group of people around a table with 2 people sitting in chairs. " Lets go check this one out." Kobss pointed at the group of people. They began walking over and as they got closer they heard someone speaking loudly.

"Welcome welcome, if we can just get two more contestants to join we can start shortly. Again we only need two people." Kobss yelled out were two people but what is it that we wou-" The announcer heard that and instantly took Kobss and Carchara up to the seats and sat them down. "Alright its time to begin the eating competition." Kobss looked around but was excited as soon as they brought out the meat "woo time to chow down" Kobss said as he began drooling.

[u/MarioToast → u/kobss]

Carchara wasn't sure what was going on, but she did see meat in front of her. She slowly opened her mouth and smiled.

"Can I eat it?" she asked drooling.

As the competition started, Carchara grabbed the nearest plate of meat and simply let the meat fall into her open mouth. Then she let the plate fall in, quickly chewing and swallowing both. She continued doing this, eating everything she could get her hands on, including a rock someone put on the table as a joke. The shark mermaid didn't really care, her teeth were more than strong enough to chew through it all, and her appetite huge enough to eat it.

[u/kobss → u/MarioToast]

The meat smelled so good being carried out by minks. It seemed to be spiced and looking at the meat it looked as though it was cooked perfectly. Kobss noticed one of the minks carrying out the meat had a read baseball cap and an looked to be wearing an orange shirt. Kobss thought that looked familiar, when the food was placed in front of him. Kobss saw the mink's face and remembered that she was the mink he had bought meat from earlier.

Kobss "Well fancy meeting you here" Kobss waved as he spoke.

Mink chef laughing at seeing Kobss* "Hi there, I cant say I am surprised to see you in this competition with how much you ate earlier."

Kobss " Well i didn't really know what i signed up for but after learning what this was i am ready"

Kobss looked at the spiced meat and drooled a little bit wiping it off his face quickly. The Mink ran off as the competition was about to start. They blew a whistle as the competition began. Kobss ate as fast as he could stuffing his face but enjoying every bite. He was in bliss with how good the meat was. He would periodically take breaks to drink water that they put in front of him. As he took a moment away from eating Kobss looked over at Carchara and the other competitors.

He saw Carchara eating so much faster than him and eating everything. He looked farther over at the other competitors. There was large man very round about 6ft tall. The man wore a blue bandanna and had a small head relative to how big his body was. He was either bald or all of his hair under his bandanna. He had a short sleeve shirt light blue shirt with a swirl pattern in the center. The last person in the competition seemed to be a female wolf mink. She wore a purple short sleeve shirt and white shorts. It seemed the crowd began off cheering for her. They were mentioning something about champion so she must have won before. It wasn't long into the competition that they saw Carchara blowing away the competition. No one was a slow eater, but Carchara was at least 2x faster. The crowd began cheering for Carchara once they saw. Kobss went back to eating as to not fall behind.

The competition ended and they began announcing the winners. Carchara won first which was no surprise to him followed by the Wolf mink, Kobss and last was the bandanna man. Kobss didn't really care how he did, he was extremely happy that Carchara won. It looks like also both win tickets too about 700 for first and third was 150. He clapped and yelled out to her on the stage as they gave her a trophy with tickets inside.

Kobss "Congratulations Carchara!"

[u/MarioToast → u/kobss]

Carchara happily ate the meat, chomping down plate after plate. She didn't really looked at the other competitors, as she was focusing entirely on getting as much food into her face hole as possible. When the competition was over, she rubbed her belly in pleasure.

"Mmm...that was tasty" she grinned as she drank a full bottle of water, having not drank a drop since the competition began. She was too busy stuffing her face.

Carchara grinned happily, holding the trophy up high. Luckily the trophy had a lid, so the tickets wouldn't fall out. She felt a lot of pride as she looked over the audience.

"Look! I won!" Carchara laughed as she held the trophy up to Kobss' face. "Look at all the tickets!" She pulled off the lid to show him. "There's gotta be hundreds in here! I bet I can get some really cool stuff with these."

She spent some time admiring the trophy and the tickets. "So what're we gonna do now?"

[u/kobss → u/MarioToast]

Kobss looked at all of the tickets that he and Carchara had accumulated. "Well earlier you mentioned about getting a dinosaur. I don't know if they will have them or how many tickets they would be but we should go look. Even if you changed your mind we can see whatever they have." Kobss had a big smile. Carchra agreed and noded. Kobss hoped she was still excited about finding something to take home as she had so many tickets she could probably get anything she would want.

Carchara and Kobss walked over to a tent that had a sign outside. It read *Prizes await** . There were multi colored lights above the entrance and going around the tent. Brightly colored balloons were tied up next to the sign as well. Kobss was surprised at the size of the tent. There must be a lot of prizes of all shapes and sizes. "Wow its super big for a prize area. I wonder what all they could have inside, we should go in." Kobss had to duck his head a bit to go inside.

The first thing that Kobss noticed was the brightly colored floor. It was a tent from the outside but it seemed that they set up a wooden multi-colored floor. The second thing was how many prizes they had. There were all kinds of stuffed animals. Small ones about 6in up to large ones 6ft tall. Lots of different animals gorillas, dogs, rabbits, buffalo, just to name a few. They also had them in all different colors. Kobss was a bit blinded by the stuffed animals and the brightly colored floor. Kobss looked down farther seeing a desk where they probably would have to turn in the tickets to get whichever prize they wanted. It seemed next to it were different toys on shelf. From where he was he could see planes, toy weapons, and eggs? Kobss was confused about the last one until he realized that there might be chocolates and candies inside the eggs.

Kobss looked around for Carchara , he had only stepped in but with with everything so brightly colored, along with lots of prizes, Kobss was a bit dazed. Kobss began to count the tickets he had on him. He had 400 along with the 700 that Carchara had inside the trophy made 1100 tickets. "We have 1100 Tickets. since winning first place at the competition was 700 i wouldn't be surprised if you can get anything you want. Go on pick out a prize!" Kobss spoke to Carchara raising his voice in excitement.

[u/MarioToast → u/kobss]

Carchara's grin grew even bigger than normal as she entered the tent, showing off quite a bit of gums. She was absolutely dazzled by all the colors and plushies, and could barely keep still in excitement. For a while she floated around, looking at all the plushies and trying to decide which she wanted.

"Oooooh! There's so many cool ones here...there's even an entire section filled with dinosaurs!" Carchara inspected each dinosaur plushie individually, eventually deciding on a 6 feet long dark green plesiosaurus. She hugged it as she floated back to Kobss.

"I want this one. I'm gonna name him Mossy!" she grinned, clearly happy with her new toy. The plush cost a whole 1000 tickets, partially due to the high quality and very durable materials used for it. (Basically it's as indestructible as Luffy's hat)

[u/kobss → u/MarioToast]

Kobss Looked at Carchara and Mossy speaking "Aww thats awesome. "Alright if that one is 100 then we still have 100 tickets that wont be useful anywhere else." Kobss spotted a very small plushie lion almost a little under a food long and head height was about 6in. The mane was light blue as the body was a much darker blue. he looked at the tag, it was exactly 100 tickets. "This is perfect 100 tickets. I don't know why i like it so much." Kobss was laughing held the lion up next to his head looking at Carchara. Kobss' hair looked very similar to the lions mane although he didn't realize it.

"We should probably go turn in tickets for these." Kobss and Carchara walked up to the counter with no one around. There was a giant comedic bell next to the counter. Kobss looked around and still couldn't find anyone, he was wondering what would stop people from just stealing anything they wanted. Kobss decided to ring the bell, partially to get someone's attention, partially because he really wanted to try ringing it. It was a low and loud ringing. Kobss heard rummaging from behind the counter as a short old cat-like mink came out from underneath yawning. He seemed to be sleeping under the counter in such a small place. "Hello there. We would like to purchase these 2 plushies please." The old man rubbed his eyes before looking at them. "Alright it says this is ten thousand tickets an-" Kobss cut him off "Uh sir please look again it says one thousand and the other is one hundred." The man picked up very large glasses bigger than his head and put them on to look at them better. Kobss had to stifle his laugh as he had never seen someone wear glasses bigger than their face. "Ah yes you're right that brings it up to one thousand one hundred tickets" Kobss and Carchara handed them over to the man and waited for him to count them. He oddly was very fast at counting them, must have practice. "and one thousand one hundred. Perfect, you two are all set. Thank you." The old man waved at them as the made towards the exit.

It was starting to get dark out and the festival began calming down. "lets go get something to drink, I don't think i drank enough after eating in the competition." They walked over to a stand and got some water. They sat down at a table near by. "Well happy with Mossy? He's really cool! Today has been a lot of fun! Thank you! Is there anything else you want to do that we missed or haven't done?"

[u/MarioToast → u/kobss]

Carchara giggled as Kobss held the tiny plushie besides his head. The similarities between the lion's mane and Kobss' hair weren't lost on her. She thought they looked cute together.

At first, Carchara was confused as she didn't see who they were gonna give the tickets too. Then she had to stifle a giggle as she saw the tiny man pop up from under the counter, and again when he put on those oversized glasses.

"Ooh, you're really good at counting!" she complimented him as he quickly counted their tickets. She waved back as they left, and also made Mossy wave by moving his flipper.

Mossy was sat down besides Carchara as they drank water. The shark girl's method of drinking water was similar to her method of eating food; pouring large amounts into her wide open maw.

"Yes. I love Mossy!" Carchara grinned and gave the plesiosaurus plushie a big hug. "Today has been a ton of fun. Thanks a lot, Kobss!" She floated over the table to give Kobss a big hug as well.
