HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Can I just say, I never realised how sharp you all were! Lots of you guessed correctly and ruined my surprise!

No worries. I'm so glad I've finally finished this chapter. It's a bit short, however, better than nothing, right?

Also, three things.

1) I have created two new fanfics, but they're Coco, not ROTG. I was so overwhelmed that I decided to take my mind off of the ROTG fandom altogether. It helped, so I should be back to updating all of these fics. I will also be doing one crossover between ROTG, BH6 and HTTYD. I'm not neglecting my old fics. It just felt repetitive writing for the same fandom over and over again, so I need a release. That's what these three new fics provide for me. Sorry if it does feel like I'm neglecting my old fics.

2) I have an Instagram for my fanfic, so if yea want, follow me. (kitoh _ 1)

3) I also have an email for my fanfic. It's kitoh. 04 (the at symbol) . (Fanfic is a pain and doesn't let me write it normally).

Right! Back to the matter at hand.

Guest Reviews (Moon, I haven't done this in ages!(take note, none of these are from the two notes I posted, as I have deleted them!))

Sofie Rose: Bunny, don't argue with Sofie! She's right and we know it! (Don't worry Jack, just because he denies it, doesn't mean it isn't true:).

Iloveanimals: And here's the next one!

Random Reader: Glad you liked it! Hope you also enjoy this chapter!

I have an exam tomorrow, so I hope you all enjoy this while I'm stuck in an exam hall for two hours!

Enjoy!

Yawns and Whiskers

Bunny blinked as the sun crept over his face. He aimed a death glare at the curtains that he had forgotten to close last night.

He held back a yawn. it had been an exhausting day, yesterday. Aster had sat in a slight denial, in Jack's room. he kept thinking that he was hallucinating and Jack wasn't there: that he was just dreaming. Jack had woken up and finally convinced him to get some rest; by then it was far past 4 in the morning.

He shuffled into Jack's room, suppressing yawns and rubbing his eyes. one part of him was screamed for him to go back to his room. However, the part of him that forced him out of bed, told him he'd better give his son something to eat, and generally make sure he was alright.

Aster couldn't help the small grin as he saw Jack buried under the covers, a tuft of white peeking out from the top.

"Jack." He whispered, gently. "You need to get up and eat something."

"Not hungry!" Jack chirruped, sounding quite awake to Bunny.

"Jackson Overland! How long have ya been awake?"

"Half an hour!" Jack told him, shuffling deeper under the covers. "Just didn't want to wake you."

Bunny cocked an eyebrow at his son. "Ya don't normally have a problem waking me up."

When he saw Jack stiffen, he smirked. "Come on, ya little bugger. Ya need food."

Aster's smile turned into a frown of worry, when Jack said, "I just wanna go back to sleep."

"Jackie? Is something wrong?"

The younger spirit sighed and silence flooded Aster's ears as it seemed Jack silently debated whether he should say anything.

Finally, Jack pulled the blanket off.

Aster felt his jaw drop.

Instead of seeing Jack, he saw a Pookan kit in his place. he looked exactly like he did last time he turned into a kit: white fur and speckled grey, pink nose and shocking blue eyes. Only this time, he looked a little older, the equivalent of Jack's physical human age.

"What on Earth happened to ya this time?!" Aster shrieked, although he would refer to it as a more masculine shout.

"Why do you think I did this on purpose!?" Jack shrieked back.

They simultaneously took a deep breath, and then Bunny gave Jack a pointed look, which clearly said, 'explanation please'.

"I dunno. I was looking at this..." Jack pulled out, with some difficulty, a photo album that was made of the pictures taken by North's hidden cameras. "And I found a picture of me when I had turned into a Pooka."

He flipped to the page, where there was image of a small white Pooka with the leg of an egg in his mouth.

"And I was trying to imagine what it would be like to be Pooka. That's when I realised that I had physically changed into one."

Jack had imagined Bunny would slap his face in frustration or at least roll his eyes and mutter 'Of course'.

So it wouldn't be hard to imagine his utmost surprise when, instead, Bunny's eyes grew wide and he seemed to become excited.

"Are ya sure that's what happened?!"

Jack was taken aback at the sudden exclamation.

"Pretty sure..."

Then..

"Why are you so happy?"

"Not happy, Jack! Amazed! Awestruck! Astonished! Take yar pick!"

"I think 'crazy' is a better word to use." Jack muttered under his breath. "Can you please explain?"

Aster took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

"Yar recovery in the Hearts has unlocked the rest of yar powers!"

"Whaddya mean 'the rest of my powers'? Didn't I already have them all?"

Bunny shook his head. "Obviously not. Some spirits have to undergo a certain process to activate the full extent of their powers. The Hearts must have been the key for ya."

Jack looked down at his fuzzy paws, then shoved them into Bunny's face. His paws, put together, were just a little bigger than Bunny's nose.

"What's that gotta do with this?!"

Jack was, understandably, annoyed at the fact he wasn't receiving a straight answer.

"It means that one of yar powers must be shapeshifting!"

...

"That. Is. So. Cool!" Jack started leaping around the room, laughing. He felt himself spring higher than he would be able to as a human.

"Calm down, mate!" Bunny said, smiling at Jack's innocent happiness. "This is a huge responsibility."

That stopped Jack in his tracks. "Responsibilities are boring." He grumbled, sitting back down.

Aster rolled his eyes at the comment. "First of all, do ya know how ta turn back?"

"I..." An expression of thoughtfulness took over Jack's face. Aster chucked at the way his new nose and whiskers twitched. "I haven't thought about it actually."

"Well, try now."

Jack sat there, staring at his furry paw, deep in concentration. He then looked at Bunny and asked, "Umm, how do I do that exactly?"

Bunny face-palmed himself.

"Okay. Ya know how ya were imagining yarself turn inta a Pooka? Do tha' but imagine yarself turning back inta a human."

Jack nodded and did as told.

Aster watched as a blue smoke engulfed the teenaged boy.

A moment later, Jack sat in the nest, human, chirpy but at the same time, tired. He flopped backwards.

"Is it always that tiring?" Jack grumbled, running a hand through his sweaty hair.

His father sat on the edge of the nest and began to rub the boy's back. "Nah. Ya just ain't used to it. I had the same reaction when I first shifted. I slept for a week!"

"That sounds tempting." Jack mumbled, leaning into Bunny's large paw. He yawned loudly.

"First eat, have a bath, then ya can nap."

But the light snores that infiltrated his hearing informed him that the boy had dozed off.

Bunny shook his head, deciding not to disturb him. Aster wondered what other powers Jack had unlcked" He was already so uniquley powered, that any new powers would be incredible. As he stood, he quickly pressed his lips against the child's forehead. "G'night, Jackie."

He left the room, not noticing the small, content smile that graced Jack's lips, as he slept.
