Heey I'm on a role!
I don't own Rise of the Guardians
All Jack wanted was to have fun, and that shrewd old lady just had to go and ruin his fun with the children, an activity that rarely happens. The silver-haired boy hovered by the window and watch the young child tell about his experience during the day, speaking of wonder and adventure. It made him happy, despite not being able to be seen. Frost laced across the top of the window and he moved to the roof, letting out a rough sigh. He walked along the apex of the roof, watching the moon solemnly.
"There must be something I'm doing wrong…" He muttered, "I've tried everything, and they still can't see me." His eyes glance up at the stars. In the silence, anger grows within him. "You put me here! The least you can do is tell me...tell me why.." He said. Pain ran across his face when he didn't receive a reply. He abandoned the thought, dropping from the roof and onto the telephone lines. With each step, frost formed, making a blanket for the wiring.
Golden dust glided around him, and he let out a chuckle as it went to find its destination in the town.
"Right on time sandman." Jack hopped from the line and followed the gold. He shot his hand up and intercepted with the stream. A dolphin swam around him curiously before returning on its way.
One of the many trails of gold dust entered a room where a girl slept. The image of the girl riding a unicorn appeared, and she smiled happily. An ominous laugh emanated from the corner of her room. A shadowy figure casted over to her, smiling widely.
"Ohh.." his voice rolled out like burning hot oil, "I thought I heard the little pitter pat of a unicorn." He chuckled deeply, analyzing the girl's picture. "What an adorable dream!" He admired. "And look at her! Precious child," he marveled intimidatingly. "So sweet… so full of hope and wonder! Why, there is only one thing missing." His finger glided over to the floating image and his eyes narrowed. "A touch of fear." He grinned maniacally as his bony finger glided over the unicorn. The once golden sand turned dark, like soot. The animal cringes just as the child does, gently whimpering. The intimidating figure encouraged the sand to transform. It circled into a large dark horse, birthed to cause harm. It circled around the boogieman ready to serve.
"What a pretty little nightmare." He smiled, petting the creature. "Now.. I want you to tell the others… the wait is over." He paced outside, the moon's light bathing on his pale skin. "Don't look at me like that. You must've known this day would come. My nightmare's are finally ready. Are your guardians?"
With a smile plastered on his face, Jack watched the dust flicker and fade away. He watched the stars for a moment before a large beast bolted past. Jack's gaze averted from the stars and allowed his body to take him away as he chased the creature. He charged across the ground. Whenever he ran across a car, the alarm would go off. The elasticity of the power lines bounced when he jumped on them and bounced away. He lost sight of the beast, before it bolted passed him once more. The chase continued, until he was led into a dark alley, his staff defensively guarding his body.
"'Ello there, mate." The beast halted behind him, catching Jack off guard as he spun around. He glanced at a figure leaning against the wall, holding a boomerang. "Been a long time. Blizzard of '68, I believe. Easter Sunday, wasn't it?" The figure shifted into the light, looking at the young boy with annoyance in his eyes. Jack's demeanor immediately shifted to one of flirtatious joy.
"Bunny!" He relaxed, leaning against his staff, "You're not still mad about that, are you?" Bunnymund's eyes glanced at him, unamused.
"Yes." He replied bluntly, before focusing his attention to the boomerang. "But this is about something else…" his voice was distant, distraught. "Fellas."
Two yeti's appeared out of no where. One of them grabbed ahold of his hoodie, while the other held open a bag for him to be shoved into a bag. One of the Yeti's smashed a sphere into the ground. It formed into a portal to North's home. They offered for Bunny to enter first, but he just chuckled and scratched his chest. "Nu uh… not on your Nilly." He smirked and stood tall. "I'll meet you back at the Pole." He thumped his foot twice on the ground, a whole forming underneath him. After he'd jumped through, it closed, and a small tulip flower took his place. And so the Yeti's tossed the bag through the portal before jumping through themselves, landing right in the center of the toy factory.
Bloom had returned home to finish up some business. She drank tea and coded for an automatic system to change the weather periodically, but still random enough that it wasn't suspicious. She drank tea as she swiped her hand across the globe, her hair being braided by numerous birds. "Please put in a few cosmos, forget-me-nots and… yes a single hibiscus right at the base." She requested calmly, offering them seeds as a couple went to retrieve the fresh flowers that grew in the trees that created her lonely empire. She was humming, emerald eyes scanning to check for any flaws. A falcon roared to tell her to lift her arm. The bird of prey landed, piercing into the vines that laced around her body. she slightly winced.
"What news do you have for me old friend?" Though the beast was silent, she was able to hear it's words. Her face grew blank and dull before she nodded, giving the bird a treat. "I see, he's arrived at the pole." The lovely girl sighed before offering a smile. "Thank you, Cara, keep watch, and if anything happens, come find me." The beast flew away. She watched the vines heal themselves before completing the lockdown. Again the twister revolved around her body, and she glided away. Before she moved toward the pole, she glanced behind her. If Pitch were to find her castle, the world would be destroyed and nightmare's would reign. She bit her lip and swiped her hand calmly. Walls of earth erupted from the ground, meeting into a peak as it surrounded the castle, protecting her home and the animals. If need be, there is a small cave near the base, only big enough for the falcon. She nodded before bursting to the North, undoubtedly dreading the thought of encountering the immature boy. More than anything, she hoped her home would be okay.
"He's here!" North exclaimed in a whispered enthusiasm. Two elves peered into the bag before shying away as Jack crawled out of the bag. Tooth was fluttering around giving orders, Sandman's enthusiasm could only be portrayed by his joyful expression, and North welcomed the boy with open arms. "Hey… there he is!" He paced toward the bag as Jack looked around in wonder, never having been to the North Pole. "Jack Frost!" Everyone's attention, including Tooth's turned toward the bag.
"Wow…" Jack said in awe, sitting at the entrance of the bag. "You gotta be kidding me." the same Yeti's grabbed the boy, and he continued his protesting. "Hey hey, hey! Put me down!" His voice was calmer than before, and the Yeti's complied. He bounced on the ground a bit before relaxing on his feet.
"Hope the yetis treated you well?" North asked hopefully. Jack chuckled, resting his staff on his shoulder.
"Oh ho, yeah!" He replied facetiously. "I love being shoved into a sack and being tossed through a magic portal!" Obvious annoyance pierced through his face.
"Oh, good!" North chimed obliviously. "That was my idea!" He smiles, gesturing his hand to the rabbit that beat him there. "You know Bunny, obviously." E. Aster simply nodded in agreement and displeasure.
"Obviously," Jack replied fluttered over to him with curiosity.
"And the tooth fairy." North continued.
"Hello, Jack. I've heard all about you, and your teeth!" She blurted, fluttering all around him. Jack stared at her in confusion.
"My… my what?" He replied, surprised.
"Open up," Tooth interrupted, ignoring his confusion. "Are they as white as they say?" She forces her fingers into his mouth, Jack jerking back in protest. She gasps in wonder, "Yes! Oh they do sparkle like freshly fallen snow!" She giggled, backing away. Her pixies stared at him, swooning happily. "Girls, pull yourselves together!" Tooth said as Jack smirked at one of them gently. "Let's not disrupt formation."
"And Sandman. Sandy?" jack glances at the short, golden man, who hovered softly. Despite his position, Sandy was asleep. North tapped his shoulder. "Sandy?" He sighed subtly and put his hands on his waist. "Wake up!" He roared, causing the tiny man to jolt in surprise. The sandman waved happily. "And then there's…" North glanced around in confusion, before looking to the group. "Where is Bloom?" Bunnymund shrugged and a question mark constructed above Sandy.
"Bloom?" Jack questioned. He had an estimate of who would've been there, but he couldn't place who Bloom'd be.
"Mother Nature," North said calmly, looking around.
"Oh!" Tooth added, "She had to go lock down her home. You know how bad it would be if Pitch found it." Bunnymund laughed a bit.
"I haven't even found it, and I've traveled every piece of this globe. She's good." Bunnymund smirked softly at the thought of her outsmarting him. Tooth laughed and nodded in agreement, but all Jack could do was chuckle.
"I've been waiting to give her a piece of my mind." He said under his breath. Air passed through the room, and Bloom landed by the doors.
"How ironic," She said calmly, the vines covering her arms and legs to contain heat. "I was just thinking the same thing." Though her voice was warm, her words pierced like ice. The room grew silent but Jack just cackled, not looking in her direction.
"Finally!" He said, turning around. "The old bat-" His overconfidence melted away as he watched the beautiful young girl glide over to him, his eyes wide in confusion.
"Well now, for someone that causes so much dismay..." She started, her sweet eyes narrowing as she circled him. "I didn't expect you to be so quiet." He continued to watch her, dumbfounded. She chuckled and curtsied mockingly. She was nearly a head shorter than him, so she rose up to greet him.
"It's wonderful to make your acquaintance, I'm Mother Nature."
