I saw him leaping into a dark alley, so I followed him with Shina hopping silently right behind me as I quietly flew over to the dark alley, but at once, my instincts told me something was amiss. We hid in the shadows and trashcans of the alley as we watched Jack Frost pad cautiously with his wooden staff held out in front of him for defense.
"Hello, mate," An all too familiar Australian accent called. Jack whirled around towards a furry figure leaning against a brick wall. Shina was about to run over to her dad, but I stopped with a stern glare and she immediately stayed put. Suddenly, Bunnymund stepped into the little light from moon in this dark alley inspecting his boomerang casually.
"Been a long time. Blizzard of '68, I believe. Easter Sunday, wasn't it?" Bunny asked calmly and I instantly remembered that cold day. That was one of the worst snow days ever produced since the Ice Ages! Jack stared at Bunny with a shocked face and he replaced it with a lopsided grin as he leaned on his staff.
"Bunny? You're not still mad about that, are you?" Jack asked in disbelief and I glared at him. What kind of question is that? Of course, he'd be mad, I was pretty angry especially since it took me awhile to actually fix his temperamental blizzard.
"Yes, but this is about something else," Bunny answered with his green eyes narrowed as he pointed his boomerang at Jack. I was suddenly curious. "Oh, and Shina I know you're there. Ya don't have to hide from your dad," Bunny said and I froze in one instant. Shina looked at me nervously and I nodded for her to go while I stayed.
Shina hopped out of her hiding place and she grew from 2 feet tall up to 4 feet tall as she ran over to Bunny with a happy grin on her smile.
"Hi'ya daddy!" Shina exclaimed happily in her Australian accent, as she ran into her father's outstretched arms. Bunny gladly accepted her into his arms and he gave her a smug look.
"If you're here, then I'm pretty sure that Little Red is here too. Am I right?" Bunny asked and I froze.
"W-What? No, no, no, no, no! Nori had to stay home. She-She's not feelin' too good lately. She's definitely not here," Shina lied in a slightly high and nervous voice. I mentally face palmed at how horrible she is at lying.
"You're a terrible liar," Bunny deadpanned and everything went completely silent. I released a heavy sigh as I stepped out from behind the trashcans with my arms crossed against my chest and I glared at Shina.
"You really need to work on that," I scolded and she giggled nervously. I rolled my eyes at her and sent Bunny a forced smile. "Nice to see you again, Bunny," I said politely and he smirked at something behind me.
"Jack, I'd like you to meet, Noriana Nature. Better known as Mother Nature," Bunny introduced him to me and his jaw dropped. My stomach started to do a funny dance as Jack stared at me from head to toe, but I was doing pretty much the same thing to him.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" I asked uneasily and Jack shook his head as if trying to snap out of some sort of trance.
"N-Nothing it's just that I thought Mother Nature would be older," Jack stammered and a blue blush crept up onto his face, as the air suddenly got colder. I rolled my eyes at that statement.
"Oh, please. I thought you'd be older Old Man Winter," I teased as I turned around to see both giant rabbits trying to hold in their laughter.
"Fellas," Bunny called and yetis appeared out of nowhere grabbing Jack by the back of his blue hooded sweater. Before I could react, a yeti grabbed my arm and stuffed me into a brown sack and Jack Frost was dumped on top of me.
"Ow!" I shouted in pain as he hit me in the stomach. Jack struggled to rip the sack, but as he continued to do this, he kept on elbowing and kicking me all over the place. Suddenly, we were tossed into some magic portal and as we fell, we screamed as if there was no tomorrow and Jack even covered his ears in pain from all of my screaming.
Boof! The bag crashed into the ground and we managed to fall out of the bag a little bit, but I ended up on the floor with Jack on top of my chest. I groaned in pain as I glared at Jack considering he was crushing a very sensitive part of my chest. When our eyes locked, he blushed furiously and the room became extremely cold as Jack scrambled off my chest and out of the bag with his staff in hand. At least he helped me up to my aching feet, but that didn't help the red blush on my cheek and the sound of laughter ringing throughout the room.
"Ah, Jack Frost, Nori Nature! It's good to see you again!" North exclaimed happily with his long white beard swishing around as he talked. "I hope the Yetis treated you well." North added in his thick Russian accent. I glared at him through narrowed eyes.
"Oh, yeah I love being shoved into a sack with a girl screaming at the top of her lungs and thrown through a magic portal," Jack retorted sarcastically and then he turned to me with a smug look on his face that nearly made me melt right there on the spot. "Oh, and you've got some strong lungs. I nearly lost my hearing back there," Jack added and I cocked my head in confusion.
"Um, thanks. I think," I replied unsurely, but Jack was already walking around with his staff resting on his shoulder. Someone grabbed me and held me in a tight grip as they hugged me so hard that I nearly suffocated in their grip.
"Oh, Nori I'm so glad to see you again!" Tooth exclaimed joyfully as she lifted me up into the air with her. I tried to struggle out of her hold so I could breathe, but she was too strong, but her Mini Fairies saw my distress and they got her to notice my cherry red face. Tooth gasped as she dropped me onto the hardwood floor gasping for air as some black spots began to darken my vision, but they quickly went away as I tried to regain my breath.
"Nice…to see…you too…Tooth," I said through gasps of air and Sandy helped me to stand on my feet again. I smiled at Sandy with a relieved smile. "Great to see you too, Sandy," I greeted my mute friend. I nodded my head towards North with a grim smile. "North." I said curtly and he grunted sadly.
"No hug?" North asked sadly and I shook my head furiously.
"Nope. Nu-uh, I'm good." I stately firmly as I hid behind Sandy and North chuckled as he shook his head.
Here's another chapter. I'm sorry for not updating this for awhile, but I've been busy with two other ones and schoolwork too. Please rate, review and comment about what you think just no flames, but constructive critizism. Enjoy!
