Ok this time it really is a long chapter. Enjoy!
All was quiet. "Tsar Lunar, huh." North said. He look to Bunny. He had a deer in the headlights look in his eyes. "Sandy, Tooth, Jack, come here." They all huddled together. "Ok mate, did she actually say what I think she said." Bunny asked. "Yup, what does that mean." Jack was completely confused. "Jack," Tooth said. "Tsar Lunar is the Man in the Moon." "Oh." Jack turned around " so she's... Hey where'd she go?"
When Azreal realized that these people posed no threat to her, she decided to explore. She walked over to the strange animals she saw earlier. They were amazing, and huge. They towered above her, by two feet at the shoulders. It snorted a big hot steamy breath in her face. She scrunched up her nose. The animal nudged Azreal with its muzzle. Azreal giggled, and looked into its eyes, they were beautiful.
Jack didn't see her anywhere. They all looked around. Bunny suddenly smiled and pointed. " there" he said. With what they say; they couldn't stop from laughing. Azreal was standing in front of what Jack knew to be Dasher, Completely mesmerized. Her hands together, she could have been little red riding hood's unknown sister. Her eyes were as big as saucers. Jack chucked "I see you've met the reindeer." At that moment a little red elf fell out of the sleigh. It stood up and ran around. "And that's an elf." Jack said. She stood there and stared at the elf, who stared back, "He's. So. ADORABLE!.?" That's adorable? Jack thought.
Jack learned that Azreal was actually quite energetic. She suddenly took off running, her arms out like she was an airplane, her cloak flying behind her, revealing a pure white dress. She bounced around, on a series of small stone. Landing on one after another, with little effort, she looked like she was dancing. Then suddenly, she did something none of them expected her to do. She flipped out two jet black wings, and took to the clear blue sky.
Azreal laughed, flying was awesome. The wind tossed her hair everywhere. She banked, swerved, flipped, and dove. She soared like an eagle. "Wheee!" She looked down, and laughed. Their faces were priceless. Their eyes were huge. The bunny-man's nose wiggled. Why were they surprised? Didn't everyone have wings? She swooped down and landed silently, she folded up her wings. Tucking them against her back, making them virtually invisible. "I realize you know my name, but I don't know yours."
Tooth was the first one to come to her senses. She was right. "Well, I'm Toothiana. This is North, and Bunnymund, Sandy, and finally Jack Frost." As she went down the line, Azreal nodded. "Is there anything else, you would like me to call you?" She asked. "Well, yes, you can call me Tooth, and Bunnymund likes to be called Bunny." "Um, ok." She said as she twirled. She looked up. They guardians then realized what time it was, the sun began to descend to the horizon. North spoke with his booming, voice surprising everyone. "Well its about time we all get back to the pole, no?" all the guardians nodded. "Alright, everyone into the sleigh."
Jack shuffled to the sleigh, Azreal followed, merrily. She reminded him of Sophie. Is this what Sophie is going to be like when she grows up? He wondered. He shuddered at the thought of her growing up. What if she stopped believing in him. Or worse what if Jamie did. He didn't like that kids grew up. He knew the other guardians would worry if they saw his expression, so he threw a false smile on his face, and hopped into the sleigh. He turned around and helped Azreal up. She was surprisingly light, maybe only sixty pounds. She sat down and looked around, Jack could see she was fascinated with the sleigh. She loved it, when North took off, She stared as the landscape passed by. She turned around, "What's that?" She asked curiously. Jack looked at where she was pointing. "That's bad." Heading straight for them was about twenty or so nightmares.
