EDIT - 2/15/15 (well, I decided to take it out of the crossover section and keep it in Rise of the Guardians fandom...since it does center around the spirits/Guardians aspect...yeah...)
The Moon's Command
A short intake of breathe caught his companion's attention. The old spirit eye's only widened as he turned his head. His hands flew to his chest and he clutched at his clothes as he took a deep breath. His best friend ran to him and knelt before him, his own lime green eyes wide with worry.
"Hiccup?" The other asked softly.
His friend only shook his head before turning his head to the moon, his eyes narrowed and a small frown on his lips. Instead, he shook his head and turned back to his friend. A small smile graced his lips and he instead pulled at Toothless's arm. "Come on, bud. Let's go flying!"
At that, a look of excitement came across the rather childish anthro. The pale skinned spirit started ahead, pulling at Hiccup's arm. "Come on, Hic! I never got to show you some of the Eastern dragons! You've got to meet them. They're very interesting! I'll bet you'll want to draw them too."
"Yeah, yeah," Hiccup said with a fond roll of his eyes as he let himself be pulled. His smile though slowly formed to a small frown as he thought of what Manny told him.
He couldn't understand why the Man in Moon would want him to stay away from this strange pull. No doubt a new spirit has been born. But unlike others, he was only pulled to certain spirits, those who would become like him, a seasonal spirit. He had felt the pull with Merida and helped her. He would've gone to Rapunzel but apparently Bunnymund got to her first.
And this time…he would go…but there was that order from Manny. And he just didn't understand.
In any case, he knew what this spirit is.
First the autumn spirit, then the summer spirit, and then the spring spirit.
And now…finally the winter spirit had been born.
Hiccup mused on this. Perhaps there is a certain reason why he is not allowed to meet this spirit. But no matter, in the end, he will have to meet this person anyway.
"Hiccup?" There was that silly whine from his best friend and he chuckled as Toothless gave him a childish pout. "Don't get distracted, idiot~"
"And don't call me idiot, useless reptile." Hiccup retorted playfully before he watched as his best friend morphed back to his dragon form and he immediately climbed on. He laughed as Toothless shot into the air and they took to the skies.

Merida took a slow bit of her apple and gave a low moan at the sweet taste. She really did love apples. Taking the last few bites, she then tossed the apple core over her shoulder and stretched, smacking her lips while besides her, her now…she sort of forgot how many horses she had now but she loved them all the same.
Just like Angus.
To be honest, if she could, she would've loved to have Angus by her side though.
In any case, her amazing horse, now nearing his fifteenth year of age, gave her a small shove and she giggled, patting her horse's snout. "Aw, come on now, lassie." She cooed as she began stroking the horse gently. "Let's get on our way, shall we? We need to meet up with the stupid head." With a laugh, she climbed on top her horse and cheered. "Let's go!"
Then she gasped and froze. Her horse, feeling the rigidness of his rider, paused as well. He turned his head and looked at her through his warm brown eyes, confused and worried.
Suddenly, the spirit turned to her right, her eyes narrowed and a small frown played on her lips. She knew this feeling. It was familiar, just like when she went to that beautiful kingdom of Corona where she wandered for days before Hiccup appeared and told her that the new spirit, the one that pulled them to that location, was with Bunnymund, mending her broken heart.
It made sense that the new spring spirit would become close with the Easter Bunny.
This feeling, this pull…was just like back then, so it meant… The spirit's eyes widened. A winter spirit was finally born.
The ex-princess scowled, unsure of what to feel about that. She used to love playing in the snow when she was much younger, along with her three brothers. But now…she was reborn as the summer spirit and the winter cold bit at her skin, making her shiver uncontrollably and then after a short while, she would feel incredibly faint while her skin takes on a terrible pale color. And then she would faint.
Spring and autumn she could handle, which was why she was great friends with Hiccup and Rapunzel. However…winter…she wasn't sure how well they would get along.
But then a small smile came to her lips.
She learnt her lesson back before she became a spirit. Before, she was certain she would hate those three from the other clans but…after getting to know them, they became her wonderful friends.
Yes, perhaps she and this winter spirit could become a good friend as well.
"Come on, lassie. Let's go," she gasped again and then looked up to the full moon, her lips opened to a small "o". Then her lips formed a frown as she listened to Manny and sighed.
She was rebellious by nature…but by what Manny is saying…she really shouldn't interfere with whatever the other older spirit is planning with the winter spirit. She hated listening to the rules but this time, she would listen. Whatever Manny is planning is important, or so Manny stated. Incredibly important.
A part of her felt sad for this newborn spirit though. While she had Hiccup and Toothless to take care of her and lead her with her new life after becoming the summer spirit and Rapunzel had Bunnymund to help mend her broken heart and move on, this winter spirit had nobody. And this loneliness was something Merida didn't want to give to anybody.
She had no idea what Manny was planning but she listened.
Merida couldn't do anything now…but she hoped to be friends with the new spirit when they could meet.
~.~.~
A small smile graced her lips as she bent down, twirling her fingers in the air as she watched the flower grow and bloom in the spring night before she let go and the flower returned to its peaceful sleep.
Rapunzel then stood up and looked at the grave before her. Her eyes started to sting and she felt tears at the corner of her eyes. She sighed as she turned away and whispered a small good bye before she walked away, singing under her breathe.
Flower gleam and glow
Let your power shine
She could still remember the sweet smile of her husband. The cocky laugh that he would make that would turn shy or embarrassed whenever she was around. The loving gaze he held and his kind voice always took her breath away. She dearly missed her wonderful husband.
Make the clock reverse
Bring back what once was mine
The dead flora and grass around her slowly stood up, regaining their beautiful colors and they all leaned towards the long blonde haired spirit.
Her hair, when she awoke as a spirit, was brown, her natural color. But as she continued living, unlike other spirits, her hair grew. She wanted to cut it, to keep that natural brown that her husband loved but as her hair grew, she realized that her roots stayed brown. It was strange. And Manny told her to keep her hair. It was to be important for her role as a spirit.
Heal what has been hurt
Change the Fates' design
She would continue to bring life into this world, as Manny had declared.
Rapunzel embraced this role. She was happy to do so, even if it meant that she would live forever. Her husband loved her carefree and sweet nature. She wanted to keep that. Even if she was sad and upset back in her earlier days, she had moved on and decided to stay happy, for her husband's sake.
Save what had been lost
Bring back what once was mine
But then again, that boy noticed her pain and sadness.
She would love to meet that sweet boy again. The sweet boy who had tried so hard to make her smile a few years ago…she really would love to meet him again indeed.
What once was mine
Rapunzel abruptly stopped in her steps and turned to her side. A look of surprise and confusion crossed her face. Her dead heart hammered in her chest and she felt a strange pull, telling her to find the source.
She took a single step. She had to find the reason for this strange feeling. She had to find out why her heart was telling her to go and confront this, to know why it was pulling her so. But after taking that single step, a voice stopped her and she paused.
The spirit knew this voice. This person spoke to her when she had first waked up. But she had not listened and moved on. She stayed where she was when she woke up, mourning what happened to her.
But now…Rapunzel sighed and nodded. She would listen.
She was still curious. She was still unsure and wanted to know. After all, she was very curious by nature. But if Manny told her to stay away, then she would stay away.
