The white rabbit x reader

(Let's call him Lewis here..👀)

_🐰_🐰_🐰_🐰_🐰_🐰_🐰_🐰_🐰_🐰_

The breeze was cool and soothing, especially on this quiet night in this dense forest. You couldn't sleep due to overthinking. The movement was tiring for you... especially with what your eyes saw before entering the portal. However, the outcome was successful and good, as the air was clean and breathable. However, the fear of things taking a turn for the worse prevented you from sleeping. You knew the nature of humans and how they deal with demons. You were afraid of losing more of your loved ones.

While you were lost in thought, you suddenly felt a large, warm hand on your shoulder. You looked back only to see Lewis looking at you with slight concern in his deep, dark eyes.

"Are you okay? Why aren't you asleep yet? It's late, you know..."

His voice was a little hoarse; he'd clearly just woke up, and seeing him like that made your heart flutter slightly. He looked cute with his slightly disheveled appearance.

"I couldn't sleep... and you? Why did you go out at night?"

you asked him in a calm voice, smiling faintly as he moved to sit next to you on the grass.

"I woke up and didn't see you, so I went out to check on you."

You couldn't help but smile at his words. You knew Lewis loved his family very much, but he had special feelings for you, just as you did. You were human after all, just like him..

The silence between you wasn't awkward. It was comfortable. Words and feelings remained unspoken until you decided to speak up.

"I don't know what I would have done without you. We would all have died if you weren't with us.."

You said, looking up at the dark, star-filled sky. Your words caused Lewis to look at you in slight surprise before he smiled shyly, scratching the back of his neck..

"Ah, it wasn't a big deal. I did something any of you could have done.."

He downplayed his actions as he always did, earning a light push from you on his arm.

"Don't be silly. We're still alive thanks to you and your great mind. If it weren't you, we would have died before this.."

You could see the heat rising in his handsome face. You wanted to tease him a little more just to get a reaction out of him, so you gently pinched his cheek.

"Ouch—that hurts"

He said with a light laugh as he took your hand and gently moved it away from his face. His fingers stayed on yours a little longer. The feeling of his warm skin against yours made your heart skip a beat. His hand was large compared to yours, you thought about how easy it would be for him to grab your slender wrist and pin it before you mentally hit your face to get rid of the inappropriate thoughts.. That kept creeping into your mind as you continued to stare at his face with admiration.

The moonlight was casting shadows on his face and making him look even more handsome than he was, you didn't even notice how you were staring at him and he was staring back at you lost in the moment until his hand reached up and brushed a strand of your hair behind your ear.. There you realized that you had been staring at him the whole time, you immediately turned your face away.. You felt embarrassed and shy, your heart was pounding in your ears and your cheeks were turning red as your body temperature rose.

Lewis laughed softly at your reaction and found it cute, he always knew he had a strong influence on you.. and you did too..

White Rabbit X Ex-DarkCOM Member Reader (GN).

(Got heavily inspired to write Rabbit X Reader stuff because the White Rabbit was the best thing of the DMC Netflix series. I have quite a few issues with the series from a writing perspective, but the rabbit was dynamite! So, since there was a shortage of Rabbit X Reader stuff, I decided to do it myself! I hope you all enjoy. All my Rabbit stuff will have him just be a demon rather than...if you know you know. It will all also be focused on an AU style in hopes of a happier ending, because I'm tired of dark and depressing shit. Get enough of that in the real world.)

============

~"A soldier's duty to disobey an unlawful and immoral order is greater than their duty to obey a lawful order". ~

You were told this once by a superior officer. It always stuck with you, both in your service in the military, and afterwards when you were recruited by Dark Realm Command. It has been on your mind especially when you defect away from DarkCOM, because you refused to open fire on unarmed Makaians.

Killing isn't any more honorable than blindly following orders and stomping your feet like a wind up toy soldier. Only righteous service and protecting others with this power gives honor to a soldier's actions. That was how you made it through your initial tour of duty, and how you tried to serve in DarkCOM.

How you wish the others of DarkCOM could see that as well.

You didn't know it at first, you were taken in by all of Command's song and dance about demons and 'Hell'. How they were all invaders out to turn humanity into cattle for them to feast on. The best lies were born of truth, and you responded to many calls of rampaging demons mindlessly chomping down on random passersbys, or more conniving demons who seemed to be everything Darkcom warned you they were.

But every now and again, you were ordered to take part in an operation which felt wrong.

You tried to ignore it. You tried to tell yourself it was a trick. But raiding demon hideouts sometimes felt more like breaking into the homes of cowering families, and seeing how they fled or begged, filled you with doubt. You hesitated more and more each time.

Not every demon was a killer. Many of them fled in terror or had never harmed a person in their life. They just wanted to flee a shitty world run by a different kind of monster. The knowledge of it kept you up at night, until it finally came to a head, on the same day as you encountered the White Rabbit.

He had been known by Darkcom for a while now. 'Target: 'Thumper' was his label, he was an HVI that needed to be eliminated, as Darkcom intel suspected he had some sort of method of tunneling between realms and bringing demons into our world. A trap was laid at one of the locations Rabbit liked to use to welcome Makaians to Earth.

It was a large wooded area, so that his people could breathe untainted air, and see real flora that wasn't immediately dangerous. Your superiors had guessed his arrival time, and has set up in ambush for a few days ahead of time, you had been on watch when the portal opened, and Rabbit arrived leading several Makaians behind him, elderly, children, sickly outworlders who looked like just human beings who were oddly shaped or hairier than normal.

You called it in and reported that there were noncombatants in the area.

"They are all combatants. The moment they set foot on this planet they are designated hostile."

"There are no weapons, the have kids among them." You hiss into your radio, perhaps a little too loudly.

Rabbit's ears had twitched as if he'd heard you all, his eyes were scanning the forest for the source of the noise, yet the Makaians were still walking closer into the killbox, where they would have nowhere to run and be surrounded on all sides by guns ready to fire.

You wouldn't tolerate this...so you made your choice. You sprung the trap too early. You fired at the feet of the Makaians to force them to turn around and run back towards Rabbit and his portal, as the other Darkcom operatives were forced to change position to get a better angle, while you tried to get them to stop.

"Cease fire! Cease Fire! Noncombatants! " You shouted to your comrades, hoping to get through to them, even making universal hand signs to help convey it in the low light of the forests, hoping to give them pause.

This was wrong. These people didn't deserve to be hurt, and damn the orders and officers who wanted this to happen.

"Engage and eliminate, soldier! That's an order! Wipe them out, now!" One of the officers in the field had declared, and you just couldn't take it anymore.

"I WILL NOT OBEY THAT ORDER!" Had been screamed back at those you once called friends. Your battle brothers and battle sisters.

This wasn't missed by the Rabbit. Nor did he miss how you shot at some of your own, not shooting to kill, but to force them into cover and to keep their fire from hitting the fleeing people, because that's what they were. Not monsters, but people.

The others shouted at you that you were insane, or a traitor, with each word feeling like the bite of a nail being driven through your heart. There was no going back now, you'd done something which couldn't be undone.

But it had to be done.

You forced the other operatives to stay down while the Makaians fled, and half expected Rabbit to shut the portal on his way through, but he kept it open, and whistled for you while waving an arm.

"This way! Hurry!"

You covered your escape with a smoke grenade, and fled towards the Rabbit, expecting him to backstab you the entire time, but all he did was shove you through before closing it behind you both.

The Makaians were understandably surprised, and some even looked as if they were waiting for you to fire on them. Instead, you dropped the magazines from your weapons, cleared the chambers, and placed them on the ground. Only after you raised your arms did you notice that Rabbit was right behind you, knife held to the back of your neck, ready to plunge it in if you gave him a reason.

Rabbit didn't like being left in the dark, he hated not knowing things, and he was struggling to understand how a human, let alone a member of Darkcom, could have actually saved him and his people.

You found yourself detained and interrogated by the Rabbit for weeks, as he tried to discern if you were a spy, trying to trick him and lead them all to their doom. But your answers were always the same, and at one point you were in tears as you admitted that you couldn't live with yourself if you had knowingly killed innocents, so you threw your entire life away to do the right thing. There's no going back now.

"So, either kill me or let me go. I have nothing else now." You told the Rabbit, and a day later he came back with his decision. He cut your ropes and told you that you could stay, but that he'd be keeping an eye on you.

=================

-The rabbit is initially suspicious of you when you first escape back into Makai. Its only by the insistence of the Makaians who you saved that he doesn't throw you back through the portal and let DarkCom deal with you. As time goes on, he will grow to trust you more as he sees you actively trying to help everyone else there.

-He refused to give you any of your weapons back, until the refugee camp was attacked by one of the wild beasts. It was a giant beetle like beast smashing through the tunnels where the Refugees hid and remained safe from the poison air above. Rabbit and the other guards for the camp did what they could to fight the beast up close, and you were helping the refugees flee to safety when you spotted a broken metal case with your weapons inside.

You quickly grabbed them and started peppering the beast from a distance with shots and even a grenade. Each time the Bettle was moving to attack someone you would get its attention and force it to look your way or avoid attacking someone. You even went so far as to charge at it with a flare, which forced the creature to rear back in fear of the bright flame and smoke, finally giving rabbit a perfect strike at its soft underbelly, and slicing it open.

-Rabbit never forgot what you did, and how easily you could have killed them all if you'd wanted to, or how you risked your life yet again to save his people. From then on he allowed you more freedom in the camp, and when the dead Beetle was turned into food, he let you have the best part to eat. (Food is limited on Makai, and this small gesture told everyone else he trusted you).

-Rabbit first learned of Earth thanks to finding a vendor of human artifacts which sometimes slipped through the cracks of the barrier between worlds. He learned to read thanks to an old copy of Alice in Wonderland, which prominently displayed a rabbit on it and he wondered if it was about creatures like him. He used it to help him learn how to read and used to think 'Alice' was the term used for humans until he was old enough to read more advanced books and understand the difference between humans and demons (and how similar they were on a genetic level).

Sometimes he still slips up and refers to you as Alice.

-When it comes to supply runs and setting up safehouses on Earth, Rabbit was hesitant to bring you along, but you've proven invaluable in helping them find good places to get supplies, and even raided a few Darkcom safehouses you were familiar with but which were not in use. It looks like Darkcom command assumed you were dead after all this time and had neglected to re-secure these safehouses. you handed off everything you could to Rabbit to use in keeping the Makaians safe on the other side, and promised to help teach those how were willing how to use a weapon.

Guns will do nothing to the higher-level demons, but it can at least make it easier to hunt for good and scare off weaker demons who come trying to take supplies or shake the refugees down like old school mafia thugs. You've had to help chase them off and fight more hostile demons, but Rabbit always does the heavy lifting in that regard. At least now the refugees will be safer when you two aren't around.

-You even once managed to steal an entire semi-truck worth of packaged food thanks to your knowledge of places on Earth which you could hit without harming anyone. Rabbit wouldn't admit it, but you knew that glint in his eyes. He was impressed.

-Rabbit didn't know that there were actually 4 books following the stories of Wonderland, and he thanked you for letting him know, a bright smile on his face, as if he'd learned that Santa was indeed real.

-Surviving on Makai is a lot like being in the army or Darkcom. 90% of it is looking for something to do and hoping nothing kills you, the last 10% is pure terror and fighting for your life. Though it fluctuates, it still leaves you with plenty of time to think and looking for ways to help out, especially when in one of the tunnel networks Rabbit has deemed safe enough for refugees to hide in long-term.

-You spend some of your downtime telling stories to young Makaians to distract them from the hardships of life, and have more than once reenacted scenes from famous movies using a stick instead of a sword and eventually Rabbit will join in and help tell the stories with you. ( Yes like that scene from Reign of Fire).

-Other times you spend it running impromptu classes for Makaians about Earth and clearing up any misconceptions they may have about it (Such as some thinking cars were tamed monsters with a metal carapace, or that radios and TV had tiny demons inside forced to perform for humans). You've even been looking into ways to teach them how to drive stick shift for a car.

-Recently you've been helping Makaians learn how to live on Earth and among humans without arousing suspicion. This also includes asking Rabbit to help you by playing the part of a Makaian in disguise and what would be appropriate/a faux pas when among humans. Rabbit likes to think of himself as a showman and loves to have the eyes of others on him, so why not have him help give demonstrations?

This would be what eventually led to your first kiss. You both got a little too 'in character' and kept leaning in closer while 'showing how humans expressed affection' (Some demons do it by biting others by licking so you were showing the human ways) until you gave one another a quick peck of a kiss.

You'd meant to do it on his cheek, as had Rabbit, but you leaned in too quickly, and your lips had touched for a half a second.

-Rabbit would actually come to you later to apologize for the unexpected kiss, while making an offhand comment that it wasn't an unpleasant experience.

-You suggested to Rabbit that perhaps you should continue the lesson. It would take about two weeks for him to come back to that idea, but your second kiss was much better than the first one.

-You've both taken to sometimes going out in search of little gifts to give one another when doing scouting missions on Earth, and Rabbit keeps trying to find flowers which won't die immediately while on Makai. But it was through this which Darkcom began to learn you were still alive, and began to make plans to eliminate you.

-Whenever you have an engagement with Darkcom you try to go nonlethal as much as you can, tossing flashbangs, smoke grenades, using suppressing fire and shooting to wound rather than to kill, or loading a rubber bullet into a grenade launcher and firing off the massive thing towards one of the enemy shooters to break their wrist or crack a rib. You just need to take them out of the fight until everyone can retreat. But Darkcom knows you lack the stomach to go all the way and plan to use it against you.

This would end up further cementing Rabbit's love for you when he saw you in danger and risked his own life for you.

-Rabbit nearly tore his tendons moving faster than the human eye could see, moving fast enough to save you from a Darkcom ambush, where they lobbed grenades at you, and they had landed enough of them around you that it didn't matter where you ran. You would have been blown to bits no matter what. If the detonations didn't get you, then the shrapnel would have.

But Rabbit saw the grenades coming down around you and moved at such speeds his shoes were ripped and broken, hanging off of his feet, the seams of his shirt had ripped, his veins felt like they were ready to burst, but he was able to grab you and pull you to safety before the grenades went off.

The smoke it created was enough to give you both time to escape to a portal and out of the Darkcom trap. The moment Rabbit made it to the other side, he collapsed.

The pain he'd be in for a week after was enough to require some of the harder painkillers the Makaian refugees use as well as some drugs to bring down the swelling in his body. He was breathing hard the entire time, as if constantly trying to catch his breath, and in his dazed confusion he kept asking if you were okay, even while you tended to him and tried to soothe his pain.

He's not as strong or as fast as the true demons of Makai, normally he wouldn't push himself so hard. But seeing you in genuine danger of being killed caused him to put everything he had into running fast enough to save you.

-Afterwards he'd really get on your case about being soft on Darkcom and how you needed to stop fighting with one arm behind your back, but you knew he only did it because he cared about you.

-One of the angriest you've ever seen Rabbit get angry at another Makaian was when a mimic demon was imitating you and pretending to be you. The rabbit instantly knew it wasn't the real you, and lashed out.

'They didn't sound right, didn't smell right, didn't move right...it was an insult.' He would later say about the incident, after you had pulled Rabbit off of the mimic, where he'd been punching their singular eye and screaming at them to never imitate you again.

-He had actually never heard of Bugs Bunny until you managed to show him some clips of it. To your shock it actually had him laughing and guffawing at the cartoon rabbit's antics. You've rarely ever seen his mouth open that wide, but its good to see some real joy in his life now and again.

Though don't ever ask him to say 'What's Up Doc'. It will just annoy him.

-The worst arguments you and Rabbit ever have are about how to better handle DarkCom and whether to reveal the existence of Makai to the public. You insist on going public, making videos to send to the press, getting DNA samples to share with hospitals and universities, and showing the world that Makaian's aren't monsters!

If people knew the truth, the public outcry could put Darkcom on the backfoot and give the refugees a chance to claim genuine sanctuary. Or perhaps even trying to get other members of the organization to see that they are going about this all wrong.

The first idea is scoffed at by the Rabbit, the second however always leads to arguments.

"You need to get your head out of your ass, dearest. They are jackboot thugs who will happily kill all of us without losing a second of sleep. Whatever 'good members' who might exist among them were either killed off for asking too many questions or they jumped ship like you did. What remains are wind up killers waiting for their next mission. I will hear no more of it."

On and on the arguments go, with both of you making points and refusing to budge. Rabbit makes the point of how it takes only one single Darkcom spy among them to bring all of this crashing down.

"Just one single guided missile and we're all dead." Rabbit reminds you, and its hard to deny him, yet whenever he comes up with a plan which would cause civilian casualties you are quick to shoot those down. Those tactics will only further turn people against Makaians, and make it harder for them to reveal themselves to the public.

"If we act like the monsters they say we are, it will give them justification to treat us that way." You say to Rabbit.

"Why should that matter? Humans act like monsters all the time. Ghandi Games only work with people who can feel shame." He scoffs, and gets angry when you remind him that Ghandi did succeed and is venerated for it. On and on the two of you go to the point of sleeping in different beds, only to make up as the week goes along (especially as Rabbit is usually the first one to reach out, by offering you tea he made himself).

This work is hard, and it eats at you both. Whatever moments of joy can be found between you two have to be guarded, protected, and cherished. You've become a pariah to your own people for Rabbit and the Makaians. He understands this and wishes things were different.

It becomes a moot point as going less lethal proves to be more of an impossibility as DarkCom considers you a priority target for termination. They will not take you prisoner, they will not hear you out. They want to kill you, even if they are being spoonfed lies and propaganda, they will not hesitate and will show no mercy to the Makaians under your protection.

So, you do what you must.

As you have to fight some of your own former comrades, and kill some of them, Rabbit sees how it eats at you, and will hold you and let you cry as much as you need to.

"I ran out of tears a long time ago. But I remember how much better I felt afterwards...so take as long as you need." He will tell you, holding you tight, and pushing off other business unless it's absolutely critical he be there.

Yet he's starting to come around to the idea of finding other ways of helping the Makaians. Be it by going public, or by trying to find a different world altogether to flee to.

It has to be worth it. Something good has to come out of all of this. The pain can't end with more pain. No matter how deep you both have to go down into the rabbit hole, you're going to find a way to make things right.

Both worlds are cold and dark, full of so much pain, but together the two of you are bringing some light and much needed joy where possible.

A good part of this entire idea was sparked by the Shower Ambush from The Rock, and I had it on repeat while I was writing certain parts of this to keep my muse going.
