Easter egg hunt

It is the time for the Easter egg hunt, and Deimos is organizing the search.


Deimos: Now where do we start... I think we should divide into pairs.

Fomalhaut: That won't work, there are five of us...



Niks: No need to organize any search party...

Naks: ... we found the Easter bunny nest!



Everybody: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!



Eggie: Everything that is yellow is mine!

Rastaban: Not fair, I want a chocolate bunny, too! The chenille chicks did not taste very good...



Deimos: Eggie, you can't possibly eat all the yellow chocolates by yourself.


In the end Eggie was not too greedy. All the little ones get a chocolate bunny.

All: mmmmmmmmmmmmmm...



Rastaban: This tastes better than the chenille chicks...


There's plenty of chocolate for everybody, even to those who did not participate in the hunt. After all, even little demons can't eat their own weight in chocolate.

Stealing Cattle Luck?

The time between Good Friday and Easter Sunday is a time when dark forces are loose. The night between Good Friday and Saturday is especially bad, witches are supposed to try to steal cattle luck by stealing hair or pieces of skin from animals.

So this is not a good time for the littlest vampire to be missing. It is little wonder that Algol is worried. (I am not even trying to question where Deimos and Fomalhaut have been, they are old enough to take care of themselves - even if Deimos seems to be afraid of everything.)



Algol: Was Rastaban not with you? I can't find him anywhere!

Deimos: No, we have not seen him last night. He must be out on his own.

Fomalhaut: That's not good, he is too small for that...



Deimos: There Rastaban is!

Fomalhaut: He appears to be hiding something...



Deimos: What have you got? Let me see...

Rastaban: Nooooooooooooooooo!


But Deimos is bigger and stronger and he soon makes Rastaban drop what he is holding...

Deimos: What is this? Dragon scales!



Rastaban: I was just trying to follow the tradition and steal some cattle luck...



Deimos: Cattle luck for dragons? But you don't even have a dragon!

Rastaban: I do have a dragon, but he is missing. Can I keep the scales anyway?



Deimos: Of course, I don't think you can go and glue them back on the dragon. But be careful. Dragon scales can contain powerful magic.



Rastaban: I just hope they contain enough magic to help me to find my dragon...



Algol: I'll help you. We'll find your dragon.

Easter Grass - decorated

I cut the Easter grass a bit (it is growing too fast) and then let the Eggie, Algol and Rastaban decorate it. Eggie is in seventh heaven because there are so many yellow chicks and yellow eggs. She even put some yellow feathers into her hair pretending to be an Easter chick herself.


Eggie: We proudly present our decorated Easter grass.

Rastaban: Hmph..



Eggie: I invited Humpty Dumpty to serve as a decoration because he is an egg. The chicks seem to think he is their daddy.



Algol: I set up a nest for all the Easter Bunnies to lay their eggs in. Eggie even let her yellow bunny to sit in the nest with the rest of the bunnies.



Rastaban: I don't know anything about decorating anything, I just scattered the chicks all over the grass. I wondered if they are good to eat, but others say chocolate eggs taste better, so I guess I'll just wait a bit.
