Fire And Ice
A/N I felt like writing an new Magic Roundabout fic after watching the movie in a long time and I hope you like. This fic is about two people who are supposed to be enemies but become friends through their shared pain of being lonely. But Zebedee might teach Zeebad that compassion and caring isn't weak, it makes you stronger....
It was a clear, calm night in the Enchanted Village but somebody wasn't happy. Inside the Roundabout, there were sounds of sadness. An icy blue skinned Magical Springer wearing nothing but a brown leather vest with springs for legs was looking in a mirror made of nothing but ice. The rings around his eyes seemed darker and his moustache seemed messier. Lately his icy heart had been filled with sadness, more so than usual. He wasn't good with feelings or emotions.
It felt like his heart was in pain but didn't understand why. The pain of being all alone was getting too much to bear. Sam the clock work soldier who guarded the Roundabout and Zeebad inside could tell the Magical Springer was more depressed and sad than normal.
"Why is this happening to me? I know I#m normally like this since I was reimprisoned in here but the pain is too much.
Why does it hurt so much?" Zeebad thought looking at his reflection in the icy mirror.
It'd been a long while since he'd been accidentally released and nearly had gotten all three diamonds, nearly getting his perfect world but he'd been reimprisoned by Zebedee's friends. Inside he wanted to cry but the tears hung from his eyes like icicles because his heart was so icy.
But in a house in the clouds a red skinned Magical Springer wearing a yellow sweater and white gloves with springs for legs sat up in bed. He had a black moustache and short messy black hair.
"What's going on down there?
Somebody is sad. The sadness is coming from the Roundabout.
I must go..... even if it is Zeebad in agony." he thought vanishing in coloured sparkles of magic. Sam was surprised to see him appear at the Rounabout. They were best friends.
"What's going on in there?
Why is..... he crying?" Zebedee asked his soldier friend.
"I don't know. He's been like this the past few days. Maybe..... he's sad about being lonely." Sam told him. Zebedee thought about that for a few minutes. He knew how much the pain of being alone felt even though Florence and the others were his friends, he felt like there was nobody in the Enchanted Village like him except for Zeebad and the icy Magical Springer was a little..... erratic and craved the world to be in ice and snow forever.
"Maybe that's not the only thing Zeebad craves. Maybe he craves friendship but has been too afraid to try because he's afraid it makes him weak but you can relate to his pain, can't you?" his warm heart told him. Sam saw him wipe away a tear as he nodded.
"What're you thinking?" Sam asked his magical friend.
"I need to talk to him. Maybe my heart is right and Zeebad is too afraid to ask for friends or even one." he answered vanishing into the Roundabout. He nodded worriedly knowing where he was going....
