Yo! Halloween is my favorite holiday so I really wanted to make a story with it, and that I have. I hope you all enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
Don't own Rise of the Guardians, so please take your time and enjoy the ride.
"Ah, I'm finally done work. I might actually get to enjoy Easter before it's over," a girl said as she walked to her car. Specifically this girl is Alice Eve, an eighteen year old with her black, purple tinted hair and purple eyes. She has just gotten off work and really wants to leave and get out of the ugly tan pants and black collared shirt.
As she is walking however she freezes when she sees a movement in the field behind the restaurant she works in. It is sunset so it is slightly dark out and one of Alice's greatest fears is the dark, however she looks out into the field to see a large...rabbit?
Her eyes widen and she cups her hands around her mouth, "BUNNY?!"
The form stops and turns to face her, she is however to far to see the look on his face. Yes, Alice is eighteen and yes she is still a believer, which can be blamed on her grandmother who told her nothing but stories about the Guardians of the world and children.
She is grinning and no words can seem to express her happiness but like all good things the happiness ends as she sees a group of completely black soldiers begin to catch up to Bunny, who had stopped at the sound of his name. Alice's face becomes filled with fear and before she can even register she is running across the field, her phone and keys fall from her hands but she doesn't stop.
In the distance Bunny is fighting the things with his boomerangs but there are too many and are beginning to surround him. However, before the soldiers can thrust their swords forward and into Bunny, Alice is there and she has grabbed Bunny and pulled him out of the almost complete circle.
"NO!" she can hear Bunny shout this as he watches Alice get stabbed by the large number of nightmares.
However, soon Alice can't hear anything as everything goes black, a terrible pain goes through her body as the nightmares begin to go inside her, trying to make her a host. She tries to scream but the black sand has complete surrounded her, she can't even breathe and she can feel herself begin to lose consciousness as she falls to her knees.
Then the sand just bursts and disappears leaving Alice alone in nothing but darkness, she looks up and sees the moon, it's just a crescent but it looks as if it is shining more than she's ever seen.
'You are the spirit of Halloween,' Alice can hear the moon say this, and she believes it as she closes her eyes and falls asleep with the moonlight engulfing her.
"No better way to spend Easter than on a roof," a boy says as he sits to look at the sunset.
This boy is Stein Hallows, an eighteen year old boy with black spikey hair with a bit of red in it and red eyes. He is currently relaxing on his apartment buildings roof, it is actually locked but picking locks is one of Stein's many talents. He is wearing his usual black jeans and t-shirt, he should have a jacket on but he enjoys the slight chill of the soon to be night.
Then he shivers harshly as something quickly flies past him, followed by a bunch of black...sand?
Stein quickly stands and faces the building next to his, there is a boy with white hair and a blue hoodie fighting of some of these black soldiers.
"Jack Frost?" Stein whispers as he walks toward the other roof, yes he is eighteen but he still believes in all the things kids do, always has. The boy, Jack Frost, looks over at Stein for a second with surprise in his eyes.
Then Stein shouts, "Look out!" as a soldier charges at Jack, who thankfully blasts the thing away before he gets hit.
Jack smiles and waves at Stein, but Stein begins to run as he see the soldier all step back from Jack and from a circle. As he jumps across to the other roof the circle is almost whole and is closing in on Jack, but Stein rushes in and grabs Jack by the hood. He pulls him out in just enough time, but in return Stein is stabbed by the group of nightmares and the sand begins to flood into him.
"NO!" Jack screams as Stein becomes covered by the black sand.
Soon Stein can't see or hear and a pain shoots through him as the sand floods into him more, however he doesn't scream but he does begin to panic as he becomes unable to breathe. He falls to his knees and feels himself losing his consciousness but before he does the sand just bursts and disappears.
Stein looks around tiredly to see nothing but black but when he looks up he sees the crescent moon shining like he's never seen before.
'You are the spirit of Halloween,' the moon says calmly, and Stein doesn't doubt it for a second as he begins to close his eyes and lose himself in sleep and the comfortable light of the moon.
Two lights had gone out that night...both at the same time.
Both Stein and Alice are my OCs and both die in the same way at the same time so when MiM says, 'You are the spirit of Halloween,' he actually is saying it to both at the same time.
I hope you all enjoyed the first chapter!
