Chapter 10:
Present Time
Aurora grabbed Pitch and pushed him to the ground. He began to get up, but she kicked his ribs. A clear cracking sound was evident.
"For god's sake Alis, stop!" Pitch yelled, "I don't want to hurt you."
"Child calm down, ve will help you," North began.
"Ok that's it," Tooth muttered as she flied away toward the Pole's infirmary.
Death opened her eyes and saw the scene unfold. She could still feel Aurora's hands around her neck. Death pulled herself up slightly only to see Aurora beating up her brother. She looked around and saw a few fallen glass sculptures of North's near her. She reached out and threw one weakly at Aurora's feet to see it shatter. The shards flew into her leg, and Aurora shrieked. Death grabbed one more and flung it to see it break against hip. Before Death could throw another, she felt a stab in her neck. Death turned to see Tooth holding an empty shot. Death passed out on the floor. Tooth then approached Aurora and did the same. Aurora simply gasped and collapsed, but still conscious she began muttering.
"Vis is interesting. I assume you used ve sedatives, Tooth?" North asked as he inspected Death. He called the Yetis over and asked them to take her to a spare room. He then asked a few yetis over to carry a mumbling Aurora on a stretcher away.
"You see, the sedatives vork differently for each person. For some, it will put them to sleep. For others, it will simply slow them and their minds down," North said.
"Smartaaaaaaas," she slurred.
"Ve should take her to the infirmary. She has glass shards all over her," North said.
Pitch went over to Aurora and picked her up bridal-style.
"Where's the infirmary?" Pitch asked.
"I-I-I can get there myself, Boogey," she said and started giggling. Pitch sighed and carried her to the infirmary as she kept babbling. The Guardians followed and exchanged glances.
As Pitch settled her into the bed, North returned with metal tweezers and a medical sowing kit.
"Would you like them to leave?" North asked.
"Oh sure, I wouldn't want to seduce them with my ankle and hip bones," she retorted. Pitch smiled to himself, and Jack laughed.
"You know, I didn't think you could get any sassier Aurora," Jack mentioned.
North prepared to inject her with anesthesia, but she shook her head.
"Noo, you know, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger shit. Plus, IIIII have felt, sooo much worse," she slurred, barely being understandable.
"Calm down, love," Pitch said as he reached to hold her hand.
"Don't. You dare. You hurt me most! Bastard," Aurora said as she pushed his arm away.
Pitch felt a yeti hold his arm and he glared at him.
"How did Pitch hurt you?" Jack asked her defensively moving towards her.
"I found your Star Map, Pitch, accidentally. I know everything. We are a joke. We do not last. You have a soulmate, but but it sure as hell isn't me. I know who it is, and that kills me more. How could you? I bet you knew. I was your toy, wasn't I. You don't care about me, you never did! I wasn't going to tell you, but how can you stand there and tell me that you never hurt me? I let you be a spirit. I made you. I made all of you. Do you want to know something? There is no Man in the Moon. I'm the man in the moon. I made "his" light. I am the moon, stars, and sun. I am Aurora Borealis. I am everything."
AN: It's been awhile, and I need reviews. I don't like begging for reviews, but when I write, reviews are my oxygen.
