Daycare Man: One

Readers, please note that this story has/ will have a lot of grisly and dark stuff. What kind of stuff I can't reveal yet, for story reasons, but be warned this will probably not be for the faint of heart.

Azrael Donn walked into the great, gaping hole they had put for a door. He was determined to get his daughter back.

Maya. She was all that he had left after the divorce. After his wife took everything away. After she stole his dog Maximus and then put him down because "he was chewing out my furniture". After she took half of his money and spent it all on a trip to Europe. After she quit her job just to demand alimony from him. Watching him work his arse off, two jobs a day, tormenting him. He was going to get her, then —

Stop it! We are here to find Maya, not ruminate.

Right, he told himself and walked in further. He saw the rabbit, the abhorrence of a creature– he thought. Its ears were a smidge too long, its smile just a bit too wide, its feet perfectly off-center by millimeters— all its features served only to put it in the uncanny valley. His dog tags clinked as he walked forward and noticed the second mascot, this one also an anthropomorphic bunny named Rachel, though this one was obviously supposed to be female, he remarked in his mind, looking at its hourglass figure and the rather larger than normal bust.

Stop pontificating about these bunnies! We have work! 

He snapped back to reality. The female bunny was pointing to a hallway down right for the children. The other rabbit, blue in colour, announced its name – Rocco Rabbit Childcare Centre.

Personally, he didn't trust these people with his girl. They were so commercialized, even Tacoland had less branches than these...rabbits. But he had to send her somewhere while he miserably failed to find a new higher-paying job, and Rocco's apparently provided 'real' and 'holistic' childcare, with specialized attendants.

He suddenly caught the main bunny Rocco move its head. Not much, but just enough for his military-honed peripheral vision to notice. He brushed it off, and walked down the hall.

Something started dripping from Rocco's and Rachel's eyes.
