Independence

Chapter 10

:::

"Poor little Iceland, all alone in this big sea." Pitch rode on his Nightmare, staring down at the Icelandic spirit, Yaka. He was as tall as Jack and had long, light blue hair and purple eyes. He wore a patterned coat made out of sheep's wool. His animal familiar, a giant arctic fox, was at his side. "The other spirits won't make it in time."

"Guess again." Yaka pressed a button on his phone, and almost instantly the ground opened behind him and all the spirits jumped out of the giant hole, ready for battle. July and Revere combined their powers and she became a half-eagle woman again.

"I've had enough of you, asswipe." July growled. "You're not killing any more of us!"

"Oh no, I'm so surprised to see all of you here." Pitch feigned shock. "I always expected this; I'm just surprised it took you so long to think of it. I can get rid of you all at once." July became angrier. Pitch saw Jack and Bunny standing next to her. "Now, what are you two doing here? You're supposed to be dead."

"Your boyfriend underestimated us." Bunnymund said. Jack nodded.

"Then I'll have to dispose of you myself." Pitch summoned his infinite army of Fearlings and Nightmares. "Get them!"

"Let's go!" July screeched like a proud eagle, flying straight towards the Nightmare King, easily destroying all the minions that came her way with her fire powers. Everyone else started to get rid of as many of the army as they could. Fahran used desert sands and wind against his enemies. Maya's skin became spiky like a cactus and could fling needles at the Fearlings. Everyone was strong, and easily getting rid of Pitch's minions.

However, there was one minion missing from the battle. "He's here." Bunnymund sniffed the air. "I smell his nasty pheromones."

"You sure that's not Pitch you smell?" Jack still couldn't wrap his head around the fact those two were an item.

"Strewth." The rabbit sniffed some more until his senses locked onto the incubus' approximate location. "There!" He ran into the forest quickly, honestly hoping that Jack wouldn't be able to follow him.

"Wait!" The winter spirit couldn't stand being the damsel in distress; he did his best to follow Bunny, trying to fly to where he thought Bunny was going. He was too weak to control the wind and he was flying erratically through the trees until he ran into one. He rubbed his head in pain as he landed roughly, glad no one saw that or he'd be embarrassed. But now he was lost, looking and listening for any sign of his lover or Constantine.

"Jack!" Bunny emerged from the trees, running up to his mate. "I didn't want you to come in here, mate. Let's go."

"I already told you, I'm not going anywhere." Jack stood his ground.

"Please, I want you to be safe." He went up and hugged the boy tightly. "Let's just go, Snowflake. For me."

Snowflake? Jack could smell the pheromones in the furry chest. He shook his head and pushed away. "You're not Bunny." He readied his staff. The rabbit put his paws up in defense.

"What are ya talkin' about, Jack?" He asked. "What makes you think I'm not…" Suddenly, the fake Bunny was tackled to the ground by the real one, and he shifted back to his original form. Bunny got off of Constantine, pulling out his boomerangs.

"Well, for one thing; Bunny would have been able to dodge an attack like that." The teen joked, nodding at his true partner.

"He's right though. I didn't want you comin' in here." The Pooka said. "Thought you'd get the hint, ya galah." Jack just scoffed.

"Too bad you didn't recognize me the first time." Constantine revisited Jack's mistake. "But enough of this. I'll kill you now so Pitch won't punish me later." The incubus began to transform into his true self; a large, winged, red and leathery-skinned gargoyle-looking creature, not to mention hideous beyond belief. He let out a gruesome shriek and flew towards Jack, taking advantage of the boy's weakened state. Bunny was not about to let that happen. He hopped in front of his lover and threw his boomerangs. Constantine dodged them and rammed into the two using his horns. They crashed into a tree. "Is that all you got?"

"You forgot…" Bunnymund helped Jack stand. "Rangs come back." Constantine didn't get it in time. The boomerangs came and hit the incubus in the back of the head. Bunny grabbed his rangs and Jack, beginning to run through the forest.

"Where are you going?" The winter spirit flailed in the Pooka's grip.

"Getting you to safety." Bunny replied.

"I told you…!"

"Listen, mate, I know you're strong, but not right now. Please…" He looked at Jack with worry. "You said you'd take it easy, so do it. For me."

"Bunny…" Jack peeked over the rabbit's shoulder. Constantine was gaining fast. "Behind you!" Bunnymund jumped out of the way in time, and the incubus stopped before he flew into a tree.

"I'm faster than you, mate!" Bunny shouted to Constantine. "Ya can't keep up!"

"But you hold your weakness in your hands." Constantine smiled with lust. "You can't fight me with that delicate little snowflake around!" Jack lowered his head in shame. He had been right; he is a burden on his partner like this.

"Jack isn't my weakness…" Bunny sensed the teen's internal distress. "He's my strength. As you've seen earlier…" His fur stood on end again.

"Bunny, don't…" Jack tried to talk the angry rabbit down.

"I won't, Frostbite." Bunny whispered. "Just scaring 'im." He put Jack down and turned to face Constantine again. The winged creature waited long enough and charged towards the Pooka. Bunnymund planted his feet hard into the ground and blocked Constantine's arms with his boomerangs, grabbing his wrists and yanking him close for a head-butt. The incubus stumbled back and then flew up high, thinking Bunny couldn't get him there. He was wrong, obviously. Bunny quickly and easily jumped through the trees, about to catch the flying demon. Constantine then released a stronger pheromone scent than before, bothering the rabbit's sensitive nose. Bunny's senses seized up and he started falling, luckily landing on a thick branch. He tried clearing his head before Constantine attacked again.

"C'mon, Bunny…" Jack silently cheered his lover on. The incubus pushed Bunnymund off the tree branch and he landed hard on the ground. "No!" Jack got up to go help him, but Constantine landed right in front of the boy, blocking his path. He released more of that scent, and it instantly made Jack feel hot and weak-kneed.

"How about I give you the greatest pleasure of your life before you die?" Constantine licked his lips. He heard the rabbit groan behind him and he turned around, seeing the 6-foot tall creature standing up slowly. "Why are you hardly affected by my pheromones?" The demon didn't sound surprised when he asked.

"Cuz it's not the true scent of sex, mate." Bunny said proudly. "I am the Guardian of Hope, of Easter. Easter is new life, and where do you think that life comes from? Love… and sex." He cracked a smirk. "Your ways of sex bring death, so it's not its true nature. That's why you could never understand love, mate."

"Bunny…" Jack's breath caught and he fell to his knees, excruciatingly aroused by the Pooka right now after he said all that; Bunny pretty much just called himself a sex god. The pheromones weren't helping, that was for sure.

"The two of you just insist on lecturing me." Constantine started to hover. "I'm tired of it, now. This is no longer fun." He became enraged and began slashing at the Pooka with his arms and wings, making it harder for Bunny to dodge the attacks. He didn't want to use the tunnels because he didn't want Jack to leave his vision for a second. The attacks became too erratic and Bunny took a hit to the side of the face, and another, and another.

"Fuck…" Jack said, trying to clear his mind of the arousal. He needed to help Bunny somehow, but he couldn't focus yet. Bunnymund finally caught one of Constantine's wrists and twisted it with one hand. Constantine let out a shriek of pain but tried to keep attacking, hitting Bunny with his wings. The rabbit slashed the annoying wings to shreds quickly in case the incubus tried flying away. Constantine had lost his composure and released his strongest pheromones, stopping the rabbit long enough for him to deliver a head-butt of his own with his hard horns. Bunny fell to the ground dizzy and watery-eyed.

"You don't deserve my beautiful death." Constantine kicked the Pooka in the stomach. "But your little snowflake does, and I'll make sure that… OOF!" He felt something hard and cold hit him in the back of the neck. He whipped around, finding the Guardian of Fun smirking up at him before throwing another snowball in his face, and he growled in anger. It was just enough time for Bunnymund to grab his sharpened boomerang and stab it all the way through the incubus' chest. "You… filthy cheaters…"

"You should talk." Jack said, trying not to seem too grossed out about the blood gushing from his heart. Constantine died quickly and the proud rabbit threw him to the ground, flicking the blood off his rang. He ran over to the boy, taking him in his arms.

"Thanks, Jack, ya saved my arse again." Bunny whispered, smiling at his partner. Jack smiled too, but he could only stay focused for so long and he started groaning and writhing uncomfortably. "What's wrong, love?" He cupped his paw around Jack's cheek, and Jack put his hand over it.

"You might… be able to fight off the pheromones… but…" The winter spirit sighed lovingly when he rubbed his groin into Bunny's knee. The Pooka's ears straightened, realizing Jack was hot and bothered. He looked down and saw a bulge straining inside the eternal teen's pants. "Please, Aster, do something…" They both knew that they had to get back to the main battle taking place, but Bunnymund had to 'cure' Jack before going back there.

"Alright, mate, sit up." The rabbit switched their positions so he was leaning on the tree instead, having Jack sit in his lap. He didn't want the boy looking at the dead body. He undid Jack's belt and trousers, revealing his very hard penis. Bunny didn't waste any time and wrapped his fingers around Jack's erection. The boy winced and jerked his hips up into that warm paw. "Easy, Frostbite. I'm gonna get you there real soon." The Pooka stroked Jack hard and fast, rubbing his thumb around the head roughly. He licked up the smaller male's lovely neck to his ear, lightly biting it.

"Ooo, fuck…" Jack cried, trembling in the rabbit's strong arms. He squeezed his eyes shut and buried his face in Bunny's pelt.

"Naw, look at me, Frostbite." Bunny took Jack's chin in his free hand, making him look into his green eyes. The boy blushed furiously, losing himself in that sexy stare. Bunny smiled, swiping his fingers up Jack's balls, making him tremble again. "I love you."

"L-Love you, too." Jack whimpered, jerking his hips forward a few more times before coming in the rabbit's paw, the load more than usual. Bunny made sure no mess was made and wiped his paw across the dried-up grass. "Ah… sorry about that…" He tried regaining his normal breathing pattern.

"No worries, love." Bunny gave him a loving kiss.

"I'm glad you're okay." Jack said against furry lips.

"Same here." Bunny replied. "How're ya doin'?"

"Great."

"Right, then…" Bunny stood up, taking Jack with him and making sure he could stand, too. "Let's get back."

"Yeah." Jack nodded, ready for their next challenge. They started walking back, when the boy turned around to look at Constantine's dead body. "Hey, didn't July say she wanted his dick mounted on her wall?"

"She was just kidding, ya bloody whacker."

"I… don't think she was…"

A/N: I am so sorry, everyone; this is so late. I was making presents for my friends, and picking up another project, and working, and… okay, the real reason I haven't been writing this chapter is because I couldn't figure a way to kill Constantine. I looked up how to kill incubi, but all it says is exorcism, and that was obviously out of the question. I decided on killing him like a vampire. And then I was like, 'this should be a long and grueling battle', but I gave up on that and just decided to make Constantine a shitty fighter. His plans and deceptions are good, but he can't fight. Their conflict lasted 7 chapters anyway, so it's time to end it. The battle is over, but not the war. Stick around for the battle with Pitch!

Also, E. Aster Bunnymund is a sex god.

Love,

Taru-chan
