Flying
Hello! I will be carrying on with caged soon but I thought I would take a break. This drabble is just a thing I was thinking about on the way to town today. Hope you like it!
I don't own rotg...
And (say it with me if you know it) ENJOY !
"I'm gonna beat you!"
"No way, frostbite!"
Jack laughed and jumped over a fallen tree branch. He had challenged Bunny to a race after freezing some of his eggs. Surprisingly, Bunny agreed- as long as he didn't fly. Obviously, Jack said yes. He darted round a tree and caught sight of Bunny. They were neck and neck. Jack smiled at Bunny. Bunny smiled back. He had to admit, Jack was way faster than any other human he knew. Managing to keep up with a rabbit this long was quite amazing.
"I'm gonna win!" Jack called. Bunny sped up.
"Not on ya nelly!" Bunny said back. Jack gritted his teeth and went as fast as he could go. He was now inching ahead of Bunny, but was getting out of breath. He jumped over some roots and kept going. He was going to win. Jack looked at Bunny and carried on. He did that every so often, Bunny noticed. Just to check. To see if he was still there.
"Givin' up, frostbite?" he said and dodged a tree.
"Never!" Jack shouted back and stuck his tongue out at him. He laughed, and ran faster, if that was possible. He was suddenly aware that there was no sound of running feet next to him. He stopped, but then fell because he did it too quickly. He wasn't fazed. He jumped up and looked around. Bunny wasn't there. He turned and ran back to where he came from. He suddenly caught sight of Bunny on the ground, moving. He went over to him and poked him with his staff. Bunny cursed. Yep, he was defiantly alive, with no brain damage. Jack went over to Bunny's foot. It was caught in some roots and looked swollen.
"I warned you about tree roots." Jack said.
"No, ya didn't." He said though he knew Jack did.
"Yes, I did and you know it." Jack replied. Bunny brushed the roots off his foot. He stood up, with the help of a tree. Jack was tempted to freeze the ground, but he knew that would get them no where.
"Can you create a tunnel?" Jack asked instead. Bunny looked at his foot.
"No. How am I gonna get back?" he said moodily. Jack shrugged but then had an idea. It was risky, but it also seemed fun. It would be hard , too, but he might as well try.
"Can you run sort of with one leg?" he said.
"Yeah...why?" Bunny said curiously. Jack just smiled.
"I can get you back to the north pole, so you can get a snowglobe..." Jack said. Bunny sat up.
"How?"
"You just have to do everything I say..." Bunny groaned. He would have to, if he wanted to get back. Jack took that groan as a yes.
"Stand up, and hold onto my arm." He said and Bunny did.
"Hang on...why do I need to hold on to your arm?" Bunny asked. Jack laughed.
"You don't want to fall, do you?" he said and started running, Bunny hopping with him. Suddenly, he got what Jack meant.
"NO WAY!" was all Bunny got to say before they took off into the sky. He clung on to Jack's arm. Jack just laughed and flew higher. It was more tiring then he thought, with all the extra weight, but he should be fine with a break.
"I'm going to have to go the longer way because you get cold, so you might want to get used to it." Jack said to Bunny, who's eyes were closed, "Come on! You're missing the view!" he said and Bunny finally looked. It was amazing. He could see the whole town from up there. He smiled, despite the circumstances. Soon they passed the town and were crossing the sea. Jack did move fast. The spirit smiled at Bunny's reaction and swooped closer, so they were skimming the sea.
"Whoa!" Bunny said but then calmed down. Jack Frost was not trying to drown him. The ocean suddenly came alive, and some sort of fish came out the water. Dolphins!
"Cool!" Jack laughed, and stroked one. It leaned in closer and he stroked it more. Soon, the other dolphins all came closer, wanting the attention. Jack smiled and stroked them all in turn, then flew upwards, waving at them before they were out of sight. Bunny never knew Jack could be so gentle. Bunny now noticed they were going over some town, then some woodland. Jack flew down, and carefully landed Bunny on the ground before himself. Jack immediately sat, well, fell down.
"Why have we stopped?" he asked. Jack let out a little laugh.
"I need to rest sometime, you know- we're half way there." he said. Wow, that kid did really look tired, Bunny thought. He sat down, and hissed at the pain in his ankle. Jack looked at it.
"It's only sprained- you'll live." he said and received a look from Bunny.
"How do you know that?!" he cried. Jack shrugged.
"I've seen lots of them in my life." was all Jack said. He got up and brushed his legs. "You ready to go?" Bunny nodded and scrambled up. Jack grinned, grabbed his arm and started to run. Soon they were in the air again. Bunny yelled:
"Ya could give me a little warning, frostbite!" Jack laughed happily and sped up. A bird came over and flew beside them for a while before moving away. Jack smiled. He liked it when birds came to say hello. The wind ruffled him gently and he giggled. Bunny watched this curiously. Jack was probably the only person who could communicate with the wind. Jack was just full of mystery.
"We're almost there- it's going to get a little cold!" Jack said and Bunny looked down. Everywhere was white underneath him.
"Where are we?" he asked. Jack shrugged.
"Somewhere..." he replied and started to slow down, just a little. Soon, after more sea, Bunny caught sight of the workshop.
"About time- I'm freezin'!" Bunny grumbled. Jack landed him gently on the wooden floor and went back to the window.
"Wait!" Bunny said. "Don't ya need to rest?" Jack sniggered.
"You sound like Tooth! I'm fine- just remind me to warn you about roots more often!" he said and then he was gone. Bunny rolled his eyes and hopped to the snow globe cupboard. He took one out and smashed it on the floor, and hopped through.
