YAY! Next chapter! But first, I forgot to translate what Phil said the previous chapter. So here it is:
'Unk ébdl fughr iup'= Not that you hurt yourself again.
'Ahh, gukaba Phil welrubky datarcolo!'=Ahh, no one ever mess with Phil!
'gunana'=goodnight
Hehe... gunana was a word I said when I gave my parents a goodnight wish. I was about 3 or 4 years old. XD
Back to the chapter, have fun!
"That's it! " The bunny screams through his warren. His little eggs jump and run around in fright. "It's now two f*cking weeks that he started all this and still nothing happens!"
Bunny walks in circles, deep in thoughts how to get his mate to his warren. But his paws are bond. As the submissive he has to wait for the dominant to continue. "Wait a sec…" he speaks up, turning to his frighten eggs which now has calmed down and wait for him to speak on, "Jack told may that by humans also I can make the next step, right?" Bunny chuckles, "how could I forget? Probably North is waiting for may to go on and I didn' even notice."
The bunny whistles and shortly after, his two stone eggs walk up to him. "Get me North," he commands, "don' hurt him or attack him, but when he tries to escape, which of cours' will never happen, get him and bring him here."
The stone eggs turns their faces to mission-mode, stomp on the ground and fall into the holes which appears afterwards.
"When I think about it, I have to prepare my nest for us both…" Bunny states while smirking.
"Hey guys! Wanna see something funny?" Donnie, Ralph and Gideon hear behind them. They turn away from their lunch and notice a little guy playing with his staff with a mask on it.
"Watcha doing here?" Ralph asks the little spirit. "That's not important. So what is it now? Want to see my biggest joke ever? I assure you, you are not the victims" April fool says impatiently. The yetis glance at each other and back to the child. "Ok, show us."
With that the funny spirit joins the group and points at the pair by another table across the hall. "Maybe you noticed Jack's strange behavior towards Phil?" The group watches the yeti and the winter spirit. Jack is eating the pudding Phil has given him. Phil then, to Jack's surprise, wipes away some pudding from his mouth. For the yeti unnoticed, Jack's surrounding freeze to ice while he blushes deeply, not stopping to stare at his eating friend.
"No…way…" Gideon whispers, grinning widely.
"You was that?!" Donnie asks, starting to laugh. April fool sits there, feeling really proud for his master prank.
"How? " Ralph asks. April fool grinned widely, "I shot a love arrow from Cupid at him." The yetis start to laugh again. "And it's get even better! If you help me." The three watch him curious. "You have to tell Jack that Phil is only playing with his feelings, so Jack stops pranking him and others." Everyone gasp. To tell him something like that is like to just taking his heart and trashing it into pieces. "Why should we do that?" Ralph asks, "I mean… breaking someone's heart is-"
"-something he really deserves" April fool pouts, "and does no one wants to see him like that?" The yetis exchange looks, uncertain. "There is a chance that Jack will beat the hell out of Phil."
"I'm in" Donnie agrees quickly, ignoring the looks from his friends.
The bell rings, the yetis and workers leaving the hall, April fool is the last one who leaves the place. "It works better than planned!" the spirit of Jokes cheers as he reaches the doors. "What works better than planned?" a very angry voice speaks up right behind the little kid. The boy jumps up in shock and turns around. To see the person in front of him gives him another shock.
"C-Cupid…uhh…hi…what are you d-"
"WHAT. HAVE. YOU. DONE." Cupid growls, not even hiding his fury.
"What are you talking about?!" April fool replies nervously.
"I heard you talking about pranking Jack by shooting him with MY arrows! Where is the other?!"
"The other?"
"The other arrow! Who did you hit with the other arrow?!"
"The Easter bunny! First I hit the Easter bunny and then I hit Jack with the other!" April fool explains, not recognizing the nowsilent angel of love staring at him in shock. "I wanted to hit Jack and him falling in love with bunny so I can make fun of him but I missed him and instead hit the Easter bunny so I took the other arrow and shot at Jack!" he babbles.
"…"
"…What?"
"Who did he see first?" Cupid whispers.
"…Who do you mean?"
"Bunnymund, who did Bunnymund see first?!"
"Well…Santa Claus but-" Cupid grabs April fools arm and flies in high speed towards North's working place.
If North has to answer truthfully, he would have to admit that he still can't forget the scenery between him and his friend. How could he? He still doesn't know why the bunny was looking at him like that! North sighs, 'stop thinking about it. Nothing happened, right? Only that your usually tough friend wants suddenly to cuddle with you and play with you and starting to look at you as if he is waiting for you to-' North stops mid thought. His face turning bright red and quickly, he shakes his head. NO! Those were only his imaginations! He just has been seeing things, nothing more!
Two tunnels wake him up from this embarrassing moment and two stone eggs with mission-faces are now standing in the middle of his office. "What do you want? Where is Bunny?" the Russian asks irritated. The tunnels are replaced with one big hole on the floor. The stone eggs make a gestic to jump in. The man walks up to them, "if your chef wants talk, he has to come himself" he states simply. The stony guests look at each other and back to North. They both grab with their mouth the man's arms from both sides and jump into the hole.
Just as Cupid arrives in the office, he sees the hole closing. "Damn" he curses, "we have to tell Gaia."
"Are you crazy?!" April fool shouts out, "She's the mother of nature! She will kill me if she finds out!"
"That's something you should have thought of sooner" Cupid snaps back. He lifts him on his back and flies out the windows, ignoring the scared screaming of the little spirit.
As they arrive, North lands on the soft grass of the warren. "Was it necessary?" the man asks grumpy. "When ya're not comin' then yeah, it was" North turns around, to find Bunny already pulling him into a hug, his face nuzzling into his chest. "I miss ya…" he muffles. "You allright?" North pets Bunny's head and ears worriedly, not knowing that this makes the bunny's heart flutter. The Easter spirit looks up to him.
"Let's go somewhere where we have more privacy." With that he takes the other's hand in his paw and leads him to his nest, what North doesn't know.
The Christmas spirit watches the stone eggs turn their faces back to a happy mode and the little eggs dancing happily around. 'There is something in this happiness, that I do not like' the Russian thinks, watching the bunny beside him nervously.
