"Ok I'll start" the gorgeous young redhead smiled enthusiastically "How about a cute little bunny?"
"Oh, very original Bree" the male judge sneered before the other woman sitting to his right halted his put down with a withering glare.
"Um, okay, one cute little bunny coming up!" Becky announced nervously, hoping that this was going to work and she wasn't about to make a massive fool of her self in front of a very unforgiving audience. She then turned to James and half smiled at him almost apologetically. He looked back at her hopelessly, knowing there was no going back now.
"Um, abracadabra, hocus er...babbit" Becky waved her hands in James' face unnecessarily and unconvincingly for effect. The angry male judge looked like he was about to bring the act to a halt before it had even started "my assistant James is now a rabbit!" she blurted out urgently.
But nothing happened. James looked relieved, Becky mortified.
"Look, er, it usually works if I could just have another go!" Becky pleaded.
"No I think you've both wasted quite enough of our..." the male judge began, the suddenly he stopped his eyes widening in genuine disbelief. The women either side of him gasped. Becky looked to her side - where James had been standing was now just a pile of his clothing. And something distinctly rabbit sized and shaped was moving awkwardly underneath.
"Um, ta-da!" Becky grinned lifting up the pile of discarded garments to reveal an innocent looking white rabbit.
"That's amazing!" the older female judge exclaimed, applauding.
"Totally!" Bree beamed.
"Okay, I actually have no idea how you did that" the male judge conceded "I mean, your stagecraft needs a lot of work but..."
"Can I hold him?" Bree asked hopefully.
"Er, sure" Becky picked James up carefully and handed him over to the hot model who caressed his fur gently for a while. She was sure James wouldn't object. Eventually she placed him down on the table in front of her.
"So we'd like to see them perform their whole act at the main show tonight right?" she asked her fellow judges hopefully.
