I don't own rotg

Enjoy!

"Aww…look at the little bunny rabbit painting his little eggs…"

Bunny jerked slightly at the sudden voice and created a big red streak on the current egg he was painting. Sighing, the pooka turned to face the unknown intruder- he had a rough guess who it was anyway. Who made it their life mission to annoy him as much as possible?

Jack Frost was grinning goofily at him, just as he predicted.

"Shut ya trap, ya bloody show pony." Bunny said, but was secretly relieved to see the spirit back in his warren again. It had been too long since his tunnels had been frosted, or his pond had been frozen.

"Pony and proud." Jack laughed, "at least I'm not a Kangaroo!"

"Ya might wanna take that back, mate." Bunny warned challengingly. Jack laughed again and paced around him, carelessly spinning his staff in one hand.

"What are you gonna do? Not give me a Easter egg? Sorry, but I think I'm past that stage…" Bunny smiled and placed the ruined egg he was holding on the grass next to him and stood up.

"Is that a challenge, Frostbite?" He asked.

"You could say that…" Jack grinned again and picked up the ruined egg on the grass; he tutted, looking at the big red line covering the blue patterns. "I thought you were a better painter than this…looks like you lied…"

"Ya made me jump, ya bloody Gumby!" Bunny replied. Jack grinned and tossed the egg over his shoulder.

"Someone's touchy…" He said, smiling and twirling his staff. Bunny rolled his eyes, amused.

"Like ya could do any better." Bunny shot back and Jack shrugged his shoulders.

"You got me there. Still, I bet I can run way better than you." Jack smirked and Bunny smiled slightly; though he would never admit it to Jack, the pooka enjoyed the frequent races that he and the spirit did to try and see who was the best- it would usually end up with them neck and neck over the finish line; Bunny soon learnt that the spirit was surprisingly fast and flexible.

"Ya really wanna race a bunny?" Bunny asked, smiling. Jack grinned back.

"No." He answered and twirled his staff again, "But you're not a rabbit, you're a Kangaroo and I can beat those easily…"

"Ya just made the biggest mistake of your life, mate." Bunny warned and Jack grinned hugely again.

"The usual, then?" Jack asked, referring to the route they took when racing each other around the Warren. It started at the pond and ended at the end of one of the tunnels that lead to England- as soon as one of the opponents had leapt, sprinted or (one one particularly eventful race) rolled out the tunnel and into the grassy hills of Britain, the race would be over and won.

"If ya can handle it…" Bunny answered back.

"I'm more worried about you…" Jack shot back and grinned again. He propped his staff against a tree and walked to the pond with Bunny following.

"Ready?" Jack asked and Bunny nodded.

"Always. I like seein' ya loose."

"GO!" Jack yelled and they started to sprint around the Warren.

-#!-#!-#!-#!

"You given up?!" Jack called to Bunny, who was next to him. Bunny smirked smugly.

"Not on ya nelly, mate." He answered and sped up. Jack grinned and picked up his pace too, leaping over tree roots that were in his way.

They were coming up to the tunnel now. Jack charged determinedly into it, wanting to prove that he was faster than a rabbit.

Jack had never been bothered with going through one of Bunny's tunnels before. He never was bothered about their dark corners or the the fact that the light was dimmer because sunlight couldn't get through. He never focused on that, not really.

Until now.

The dark corners in the tunnel now seemed to expand before his eyes and one turned into a familiar figure…

Jack stopped running abruptly and took a few startled steps back from the tunnel. The figure started at him for a second.

Jack shook his head. It was just a stupid hallucination…

"Oi! Frostbite!" Bunny yelled, waving his paw in his face. Jack hadn't noticed it until then.

Bunny had been just ahead of Jack and was feeling pretty smug about himself when he suddenly heard no light footsteps behind him; stopping, he turned around to see Jack standing at the edge of the tunnel, looking lost. The spirit was staring at nothing from Bunny's point of view, just a corner.

"Frosty? Ya given up?" The pooka called but Jack didn't answer. Bunny walked towards him, and it suddenly clicked…

"Hallucinatin'" he muttered and waved his paw in Jack's face…

Jack looked startled for a minute, then noticed Bunny.

"Ya alright?" Bunny asked and Jack nodded unconvincingly.

"Yeah…" he answered. Bunny knew he should find out what was wrong, but he wasn't that sort of person- that was North's job.

"Well then…" Bunny said slyly and dashed off, fully intending to win the race.

"Hey!" Jack yelled and ran after him but he was too late- by the time Jack exited the tunnel Bunny was standing a few metres away, smiling smugly.

"Looks like I won." He said as soon as Jack caught his breath.

"That was cheating." Jack said, folding his arms.

"How?" Bunny asked; Jack thought for a while but was unsuccessful in making up anything. Bunny knew this.

"I'll think of something." Jack eventually answered and Bunny laughed. Jack smiled sheepishly and lay down on the cool grass lazily, watching the clouds.

"I'm still better than you." Jack said, causing Bunny to scoff.

"Oh yeah? How?" Bunny sat next to the spirit.

"Winter is better than spring." Jack answered.

"No it's not."

"Yes it is…"

"How come?"

"Snow."

Bunny scoffed.

"I hate snow!" He cried and Jack sniggered.

"Just you." He answered and Bunny rolled his eyes.

"Wha' else is good, Frosty?" Bunny asked, slightly miffed. Jack grinned.

"Christmas." Jack laughed as Bunny's expression flicked to annoyance and anger.

"Easter is a million times better than Christmas!" Bunny yelled and Jack rolled on his side in a fit of giggles. "Easter is WAY more popular!"

"That's what you think…" Jack said back cheekily. Bunny growled.

"CHRISTMAS IS TINY COMPARED TO EASTER!" Bunny yelled as Jack laughed until he couldn't breathe.

"Classic cottontail…" Jack muttered, smiling, as he listened to Bunny's rant about how Easter was the best holiday.

It was going to be a while.

Jack looked at the sky again just as he heard Bunny swear spectacularly, and saw familiar lights in the air.

"Hey, Kangaroo!" Jack yelled, cutting Bunny short, "look up!"

Bunny looked up and saw the northern lights in the air. That could only mean that they needed to go to the North Pole for a meeting. Jack sat up and stretched.

"I need to get my staff." He said, yawning and Bunny stood up and created a tunnel to his Warren again. Jack grinned just as he was about to jump inside it.

"Then maybe," He said, "I could prove that Wind is faster than your stupid tunnels…"

Bunny smiled.

"Just can't get enough of loosin' today, can't ya?" He said.

"I won't loose." Jack said confidently and jumped into the tunnel, whooping in delight.

Yet again, I'm sorry this is super short.
