I do not own Rise of the Guardians. I only own Trinity, Sarah, and Alexandra.
Story Start
The next few weeks went by smoothly for Trinity and Bunnymund. The two had started to grow closer, and Trinity was definitely getting more used to being a giant bunny. She didn't grab his tail anymore, and he didn't grab hers either. However, she did bother his ears every now and then when the two would start play fighting/flirting. She liked Bunnymund and she loved the warren and the other spirits, but a small part of her was beginning to feel homesick. She wanted to see her sister, Alex. She just needed to make sure her sweet sister and mother were doing all right after her passing.
Trinity was sitting by one of the streams full of dye while holding one of the eggs in her paws. She gave a small sad smile as the little egg nudged her paw a few times as her smiled turned into a frown. "I miss Alex," she whispered to the little egg, who nudged her paw again as if to give her comfort. "I just want to make sure that she's doing all right after I died," she muttered and gently hugged the egg to her chest.
Bunnymund looked around his home confused since he did not see Trinity anywhere. The two still shared his bed at night, but nothing had progressed past just sleeping. His feelings for her were growing, and seeing her side of the bed empty worried him. He quietly left the house and started walking around his warren. He paused when he caught sight of Trinity hugging a little egg by one of the little streams of color running through the warren. The sad look on her face made his own heart hurt. Slowly and quietly he approached her so as not to scare her.
"Trinity, are you all right?" he questioned softly.
Trinity jumped a little bit and she quickly wiped away the stray tear on her fur before he could see it. She looked up at him with a small smile that didn't reach her eyes and said, "I'm fine, I just couldn't sleep anymore."
"You and I both know that's not the only thing bothering you," he said as he sat down beside her and put his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close to him. "What's wrong?" he whispered as he felt her snuggled into his side.
"I'm just worried about my sister, Alex," Trinity finally answered after a few minutes of just taking comfort from him. "I have no clue how she or my mother are acting after I died," she finished.
"We can go see them if you want," he suggested and smiled at the glee that appeared in her eyes. He shouted in shock as she attacked with a hug and the two fell back into the grass with her on top of him. He stared up into her eyes as his heart started to race.
"Thank you, Aster," she whispered and she gave him a sweet kiss. She pulled back shyly when he did not respond to the kiss, and she worried that she had crossed a line she shouldn't have. Looking down into his shocked eyes, she went to apologize and move away, but his grip on her arms made her stop.
"You're welcome," he said after he had shaken himself out of his shock. He gave her a genuine smile before pulling her down to kiss her back, and this time he wasn't going to be still and unresponsive because of surprise. He felt himself calm down when she returned his kiss.
They separated and smiled at each other before Trinity just let her relax in his arms, which he wrapped around her waist. She giggled when a few of the little eggs surrounded them, and one hopped onto Aster's nose. He gave a frown even though he could never be mad at the eggs. Looking down at Trinity, who was giggling at him, he smirked and started tickling her sides.
"This is what you get for laughing at me," he said and smirked as she busted out laughing and tried to get away from him.
"I'm sorry, but you looked so cute with the egg on your nose," she gasped out between laughs. She felt tears starting to come to her eyes, so she did the only thing to get him to stop tickling her. She kissed him again. With a sigh of relief, she felt him stop tickling her and get lost in the kiss. She pulled away from him and smiled down at the happy expression he had. "So when can we go visit my family?" she questioned as he sat up as well.
"How about today?" he suggested and laughed as he was once again tackled with another hug.
"Let's go," Trinity cheered and jumped up from the ground and rushed towards one of the tunnels.
"Wrong way," Bunnymund shouted.
"I knew that," she yelled back even though she pulled her ears down to hide her face.
"Sure you did," he replied and the two went to the correct tunnel. He secretly grabbed one of the eggs that Trinity had painted the other day and slipped it into his bag before they left the warren.
They raced through the tunnel and ended up in the same forest that she had died in from the snake bite. Trinity led the way through the forest to her backyard. She felt her heart break when she saw Alex crying in the swing in the backyard. She wanted to rush out and grab her sister, but a paw on her arm made her stop. She looked back to see Aster holding one of the eggs she painted. With a smile, she accepted the egg and set it on the ground. With an apprehensive look, she watched the egg walk straight towards Alex, who had not stopped crying into her hands.
The little egg gently bumped into Alex's bare foot. Alex wiped her eyes and looked down to see what had hit her foot. She gasped when she saw an Easter egg, but more importantly an egg with a pattern that her sister always painted on the eggs. "Trinity," she whispered as she picked up the egg. "Trinity," she screamed as her little heart started to race. She looked all around and froze when she saw her sister's green eyes staring at her from the forest behind the house. "Trinity," she cried and rushed to the forest's edge. She whimpered in relief as she felt two arms wrap around her and pick her up.
"I knew you weren't gone forever. I had dreams about you," Alex whispered as she wrapped her arms around her sister's neck, but she frowned when she felt fur. "What," she muttered and pulled back to actually look at her sister. She gasped when she saw a bunny staring back at her.
"Hey Alex," Trinity said calmly while her sister took in her new appearance. "I guess all your talk about me painting better than the Easter Bunny made me turn into the Easter Bunny's helper," she said and felt herself breathe again when her sister smiled at her and started to play with her ears.
"You still paint better than him," Alex said and gasped when Aster stepped out of the forest and showed himself to Alex.
"I heard that, little Sheila," Bunnymund said and smirked at how excited the child was.
"This is awesome! Trinity, you better visit me more from now on even though I know you'll be busy a times, and can we hunt eggs again next year?" Alex said quickly.
"Of course I'll visit you, and if it's ok with Aster then I'll definitely hunt eggs with you next year," Trinity told her sister relieved that their reunion went over well.
"Only if I can help," Aster said and smiled as he soon had his arms full of Alex.
"Next Easter is going to be the best!" Alex cheered and hugged Aster around the neck.
"Thank you," Trinity told him with a smile and a kiss on the cheek.
Throughout the year, there were many visits to Alex, and Trinity's relationship with Aster grew. He had claimed her as his days before the next Easter, and he only hoped that they would have children soon. He had never allowed himself to hope for children since he had been the only one, but Manny had gave him a love and now a family. Even though Alex was human, he still viewed her as part of his and Trinity's family.
Trinity gave him a kiss before they separated to deliver the eggs around the world at a faster rate. They wanted to finish in time so they could meet up with Alex to help her hunt for the Easter eggs. Trinity would be sure that Alex did not go near any dark holes in the ground.
"You're finally here," Alex screamed in joy as she rushed towards Aster and Trinity with a little Easter basket clutched in her hands.
"Of course we are, now let's go find those eggs," Trinity said as she placed her paw in Alex's hand.
"We hid them really well this year," Aster said as he walked on the other side of Alex.
"We'll see about that! Trinity and I are expert finders," Alex said confidently before leading the pair through the woods.
Aster smiled at the scene and looked up at the sky even though the sun was shining brightly. "Thanks Manny," he whispered before his attention was drawn to Trinity, who was holding an egg out to him. "What is it?" he questioned while taking the egg, but his eyes were still on her.
"I painted that one a little differently and I wanted you to see if it's all right," she said but the excitement in her eyes made him wary.
Aster looked down at the egg in his hands and almost dropped it at what was painted on it. A little baby bunny was painted below the message, 'I'm Pregnant." Aster's jaw fell as he gasped and looked back at her. The loving smile on her face and the paws on her stomach made his mind overload. He rushed towards her and pulled her into a kiss. He spun her around a few times with a happy laugh and then looked down at a smirking Alex. "You knew, didn't you?" he asked and she nodded with a wink. "You're going to be an Aunt," he told the child, who happily ran around the field and cheered.
"I love you," Trinity told Aster when he looked at her again.
"I love you," he whispered and then placed a paw on her stomach and said, "And I love them too."
"I'm going to be the best Aunt ever!" Alex shouted to the heavens.
The End.
