So, this is my first fan fiction attempt. I find it difficult writing about characters that aren't actually created by me, so I figured I'd give it a shot and see how it goes. I kinda loved the Rise of the Guardians movie and have a soft spot for the Bunnymund/Jack couplings. So,
Warning: Contains mature themes (especially in later chapters), if you do not like boyxboy romance please do not bother reading, and there will be blood! Enjoy~
It only hurt a little bit. The pressure against his chest was actually beginning to feel nice and warm, a feeling Jack often didn't feel. No, he felt 'warm' once. Bunny had hugged him, but that was only for a second.
3…4…5… seconds passed and Jack smiled, his vision becoming hazy and the voices around him fading. They sounded… panicked? They must not feel the same warmth he did.
"Jack!" Tooth screeched when she saw the large spirals of blackened sand surround the frost child. She normally wouldn't have screamed, knowing that Jack Frost was more than capable of handling himself in these tough situations, but before his body was covered completely by darkness she saw small droplets of red blood fall to the ice below.
The scream caught North's attention, glancing in Tooth's direction just as he swung his sword. The large swords smacked into the hard, compacted sand-nightmare, but once again didn't do much damage. North yelled out to Tooth, who was buzzing quickly towards the spiralling sand that surrounded Jack. "Tooth, don't! Your wings!" He shouted. Her wings were already coated with soft, dark sand from earlier that fight, making it harder and harder for her to stay airborne. "That thing might destroy them!" North plunged a sword into the nightmare before him, the sand from the beast starting to creep along the floor under his feet.
Tooth paused, her small body shaking slightly as she watched sand spread from the nightmares they were once fighting to the large spiral that had formed; the black sand began to lift up into the clouded sky. "I… It has JACK!" She looked to the Guardians with large and terrified eyes.
Sandy reacted quickly while the others exchanged looks with widened eyes and expressions of horror. Sandy created a large, golden cloud of sand and rose into the sky after the nightmare spiral, attempting to get as close as he could to it. As soon as the two parties broke through the clouds, black whips began to attack the sandman on all ends. Soon only flashes of light were visible through the clouds, worrying those stuck on the ground.
Tooth frowned, forcing her stiff wings to climb higher into the sky, despite North's and Bunnymund's warnings. She rose above the clouds and was almost thrust back down when a large whip of black sand narrowly missed her head. Sandy fought vigorously, and it seemed as though the spiral was weakening and growing smaller. Sandy was gaining more and more control of the nightmarish sand with each hit, forcing the nightmares to turn to dreams and join his side of the fight. All seemed to be going well until a deafening crack, which made both Tooth and Sandy jump, drummed from the spiral; the smaller spiral of sand began to plummet to the ground.
Tooth yelped and flew after it quickly, somehow hoping to catch the large and heavy spiral.
Bunny saw it coming, thinking it was going to attack those still on the ice, and leapt forward with a growl and a throw of his boomerang. The curved wood simply hit the sand and sunk into it slowly, like the sand was alive and digesting the Guardian's weapon. Tooth stopped flying down when the sand collided with the frozen surface. The small grains all began to slip down into cracks of the ice, disappearing from view and leaving little to no trace of the existing nightmares. Covered in a few grains of sand and in the centre of where sand collided with ice, was Jack. He was standing, head bowed and back-on, which sent a wave of relief through the approaching Guardians.
"I thought we lost you, mate." Bunny spoke through a sigh, but he seemed to speak too soon. The ice boy toppled forward, head smacking into the ice too quickly for anyone to have reacted, his body laying limp on it's side against the cold ice. There was a shocked silence before Sandy lowered himself to the ground to observe the body everyone was afraid to approach. Sandy paled when he noticed the large cone-shaped chunk of black sand piercing the boy's chest. Blood flowed from around the cone quickly, black grains mixed in with the large wound and the spreading liquid.
Sandy looked to the others, his fearful expression encouraging the other Guardians to help. Tooth shakily lowered herself to the ground, her wings painfully folding down against her back. She could feel the sand grinding against the delicate wings, but this pain was forgotten when she approached the dying Guardian.
"I… Pitch…. How could he?" Bunnymund mumbled as he stood by her side, face paling under the thick fur. He knelt next to the boy, carefully moving him so his cleek no longer pressed against the sandy ice. "A pulse…" He murmured.
North quickly reacted when he heard those words, hastily ripping the sleeves off his thick coat and encouraging Bunny to press them firmly against the areas around the sand cone. "We still have time, then…" He pulled out the pocketed transportation orb and threw it.
Bunny nodded, swallowing hard as he stood carrying the unmoving body. He looked down to the pale face and frowned. Jack was smiling up at him in his unconscious state.
So, I guess that's it for the first chapter. I promise to get into details about the fight against Pitch as the chapters continue. =)
Hope you liked it and PLEASE let me know your thoughts on the story so far. Thanks!
