A/N:

Finally! I'm back! I am so so so sorry it took me so long for this chapter. For the first two weeks I have a good excuse, but the others not. But don't worry, I won't abandon Quats (Phoenixofmyth came with it, and it kinda stuck...). Actually, when I just couldn't get to writing, I ended up with maybe a beginning to a sequel...?

Nevermind, as I said, I will finish this story!

I'm not sure what to think of this chapter. It had it like this before, but then I didn't like it so I re-wrote it entirely different. But then I liked that even less, so I had to write it the way I had it before I changed it... And now I'll just go with it and post it!

If there was one thing that the Easter Bunny hated, it was the cold. Being native from Australia, he was used to the more warmer temperatures. That didn't mean that he hadn't accustomed to it more the past 468 years, but it still wasn't very pleasant. Every time he was at the pole, he would complain about it at least once, but right now, he kept it in the very back of his mind, knowing that there were more important matters.

Looking back, he saw North and Sandy standing by, ready for when they would return safe and sound, or ready to face the enemy. Bunny had been told about Nora and the powers she possessed. He soon learnt that she wasn't one to be messed with, making this mission even more dangerous and nerve-wrecking. Yes, he wouldn't admit it out loud, be he was nervous. It seemed as if the butterflies that lived in the Warren had somehow managed to get into Bunny's stomach, and were now desperately trying to get out. But who wouldn't be nervous? There were two childs in danger, and the Guardians of Childhood had to protect them, no matter what.

North nodded, wishing him and Tooth good luck. Tooth smiled a little, while Bunny just nodded back. They turned around so that they were facing the entrance of the mountain, and entered.

Nothing had happened yet, and Jack was starting to wonder what exactly Nora was up to. More important, he wanted to know where Jamie was, so that he could take him and the other hostage to safety. In this cold it was only a matter of time to freeze to death, time that Jack feared was running out. He re-gripped his staff, relieving his arms of the tension that had started to build from gripping it too tightly.

"You know, I thought we could talk for a little. It would be such a shame to get rid of you, I'm sure we can think of something, can't we?" Nora suddenly said from her chair. She had been looking at him for a few minutes now, not stopping the small grin that had appeared on her face. When Jack didn't respond, she stood up, and took a few steps towards her. But at that moment, she felt something in the back of her mind. A warning, a signal that someone else was here, besides her, Jack and the boys. Although she'd expected the other Guardians to be here, she was still surprised, but also furious.

The instant Jack saw Nora's eyes narrow in anger, he knew that something was bound to happen. He took a step back, not bothering to hide his cautiousness.

"You didn't listen," Nora said, starting to tremble a little from anger. "I told you to come alone!" Another emotional outburst was coming, Jack was sure of it.

"YOU LIAR!" she yelled. She flicked her hand, and a ray of ice flew towards Jack. Said Guardian evaded the ray quickly, and watched as Nora breathed heavily.

"EVERYONE LIES! EVERYONE THINKS THEY CAN FOOL ME!" She cast another ray. After a moment, she managed to calm down a little, but it was obvious she was far from relaxed. "WELL, THEY NEVER COULD, AND NEVER WILL!" she yelled.

"Nora-" Jack pleaded, not wanting to fight her.

"SHUT UP!" Nora interrupted. She turned around, examining every entrance to the tunnels that were in this room. "I gave you the opportunity to come alone and face me like a true seasonal spirit, but I guess it had been futile all along."

Jack had a hard time understanding her. One moment she was calmly sitting in her throne, talking like she had everything under control, and the next she was a wicked and mad woman who couldn't keep herself and her emotions under control.

"You will stay here," Nora said. "And I will make sure your pretty little Guardian friends will never reach them." She laughed loudly when she made her way to the entrance on her left. Before she could enter though, she found the entrance blocked by ice. When she turned around, she saw Jack standing there, staff raised high, pointed towards the now-closed entrance.

"You won't touch them," he said threateningly. "You wanted to fight me? Well, fight me then!" He fired another blast of ice towards Nora. She dodged, and before any of them knew it, they were engulfed in a huge fight. A fight that only one would survive.

Hiccup was thankful for the fact that he lived on Berk. He was faring much better than Jamie would in this situation. Because devastating winter was as cold- maybe even colder - than in this cell, Hiccup had lasted longer than somebody from this time would.

Hiccup wondered if the boy would be even conscious to watch the fight if he hadn't given his jacket to Jamie. He smiled at the support Jamie was giving the Spirit, even though the boy himself was really weak. It just showed how much faith the twelve-year old boy had in the Guardian of Fun, and to be honest, Hiccup trusted Jack to save them as well. As long as it would be soon. He had a hard time not to do what the little voice in the back of his mind told him to do. Go to sleep, it would see. You need it. Jack will be okay, as will Jamie. Just sleep. But Hiccup was afraid that if he did that, he wouldn't wake up anymore.

"Jack! Behind you!" Hiccup heard Jamie yell. Of course, Jack didn't hear him, nor see him. The transparent wall only worked one way. From where Hiccup lay, he could see a glimpse of Jack's blue hoodie, and the attacks that Nora launched. Hiccup would've watched the scene in awe, but the situation he was in didn't let him.

He closed his eyes, relieved that he could relax a bit more. His eyelids had seemed to weigh more and more the longer he kept them open. Of course, he wouldn't let himself drift off into unconsciousness, how tempting it may be.

"Hiccup?" He opened his eyes a little to see Jamie's worried gaze, and smiled as much as he could. He was glad that the boy wasn't as cold as him, rendering him unable to move.

" 'm 'kay," he murmured, and closed his eyes again.

"Hiccup! You have to stay awake!" Jamie said, sounding a little panicked.

"I know… Just tired…Don't worry," Hiccup said, and he tried to pat the boy's arm reassuringly, but because he couldn't move his body, Hiccup's arm stayed where it was He could feel Jamie putting his arms around him, hugging him tightly in the hope to share his body warmth.

"You're ice-cold," Jamie muttered. "I won't let you freeze to death," he said. Hiccup had the urge to chuckle. When he was little, he'd been in a situation similar to this one. He'd mistaken a cat for a dragon, and because he still wanted to prove himself to his father, he chased it with a dagger he stole from his father's weaponry. It was midwinter, and terribly cold for a child. After that incident, his mother wouldn't let him wander out of her sight again.

"Don't worry, Jack will get us out of here," Jamie said when Hiccup didn't respond.

They sat in silence after that. Jamie sometimes went towards the wall to see how Jack was doing, and then returned to Hiccup to tell him what he saw. Up till now, Jack had managed to defend himself well against Nora, sometimes taking the offensive approach as well. But Jamie soon went less often, feeling the cold get him as well. Soon, they both stayed where they were, Jamie snuggled close to Hiccup. They couldn't hear anything at all, and Hiccup suspected that it was because the walls were somehow sound-proof. But that changed when they heard something like a bomb going off on the other side of the door.

BOOM!

Hiccup was startled by the sudden sound, and if he hadn't been immobilised, he was sure he would've jumped. He tried to see what was going on, but discovered that he couldn't open his eyes anymore. But that wasn't what worried him the most. It was the fact that he could feel himself losing consciousness, and he'd promised Jamie that he would stay awake.

"Hiccup?" the boy whispered. He sounded scared, but also weak. The cold was finally starting to affect him too. "Hiccup?!" The teen almost didn't feel Jamie shaking his shoulder, and he desperately wanted to open his eyes, assure the twelve-years old that it would be okay.

The second boom sounded dull and far away for Hiccup, but Jamie jumped again and looked at the door frightently.

"Hiccup, I'm scared," Jamie said, remembering when he'd said the same thing to Jack. But Hiccup didn't hear it anymore, for he lost the battle to remain conscious.

There was one more boom, and then the door flew open. Startled, Jamie cried out. But when he saw the familiar blue and greenish colors, he calmed down a little.

"Tooth!" Jamie said and he tried to stand up and run towards her. But he didn't get any further than to stand shakily on his feet, too exhausted and cold to do any more.

"Jamie! Sweet tooth, are you okay?" She flew towards him in a blink of an eye, and held him close. Jamie sighed when her body heat seeped through Hiccup's jacket, feeling a little relaxed.

"Ya okay, mate?" Bunny repeated Tooth's question when he entered the cell as well. But when he saw the boy he had to refrain himself from crying out in rage. Jamie was extremely pale, his lips purple and continuously shivering. His green eyes went from the twelve year old towards the other occupant of the cell. He looked the same as Jamie, only worse. Bunny hopped over immediately when he saw that the boy was unconscious. He knew how dangerous it could be in a situation like this. Bunny remembered how young children died during the first time that Nora was active. If it was his decision, no one would die of hypothermia. Bunny reached his arms out, but halted mid-air. Tooth and Jamie, who had been watching the whole ordeal, looked at Bunny questioningly. Unconsciously continuing with fussing over the twelve-years old, she nodded at the other boy. "What's wrong?" she asked, but then she realised it. They didn't know if he believed in the Guardians. Sure, he must know Jack, otherwise there would be no other reason as to why he was here, but that didn't mean he knew or believed all of them. And if he didn't, they couldn't touch nor carry him. They would just phase through him. Bunny turned his gaze from the two of them towards Hiccup before drawing a deep breath and extending his paws. His ears lay flat on his head in concentration, and he slipped his paws underneath the boy. When he felt the solid body, he released the breath he'd unconsciously been holding, and lifted Hiccup bridal-style. He nodded to Tooth when he was sure the boy was secured in his grip, and they made their way out of the cell. It was just before Tooth had left the cell, that she saw the transparent wall.

"Oh gosh… Bunny, look!" Bunny looked back over his shoulder, and saw what Tooth was referring to. They could see Jack and Nora fighting, and by the looks of it, Jack was starting to lose.

A/N:

As I said, I'm not entirely happy with the chapter...

As for the Grammar test I told you about the last time, I got a 5,4/10,0 for it... Which meant it was insufficient (don't know if I wrote that word correctly... from a 5,5/10,0 the grade is sufficient... So close!)

See you next time!
