Pitch Ice Chapter 5: Pitch Loses an Ear
"Pitch!" Bunny yelled with fury. When no response came he growled in frustration, "Pitch, ye useless sod! Get your sorry ass out here!"
The nightmare spirit allowed his shadow to stretch across his abode, "If it isn't the kangaroo. What can I do for you guardian?"
The Easter guardian glared, "Why do ye' think I'm here you dipstick? What did you do to Jack? He was just in my home miserably depressed after you ran off!"
Pitch huffed, "It's hardly my fault. The boy caught me off guard. It's not like I was expecting Frost to just up and kiss me. Give a guy some warning." A pointed look from the over grown bunny had the boogie man caving to the truth, "Alright! You lot have hated my guts for as long as spirits have roamed the earth. Then all of the sudden Jack comes sweeping in being, well, being Jack and makes me remember the dreams Sandy used to give me about having a family. Then he kissed me and I liked it. That's why I ran. I have been on this earth since before you and even North. Why would I all of a sudden be given the only thing I have ever wanted? After all this time."
The Bunny hung his head, "Look Pitch. I don't like you and I can't say I ever will, but Jack. Jack sees something in you that has left him willing to love you. That is big for Jack. After all he was once in your shoes. Talk to him. Apologize for running. This is your chance, and Jacks'.
Pitch listened and was moved but still hesitant, "Tell him to meet me tomorrow, where I broke his most prized position. He will know where to go."
Bunny nodded and turned away walking out before pausing by the exit, "Oh, and Pitch. Hurt him again and you will have more than just me to worry about." And then he was gone leaving Pitch deep in disturbed thoughts. The nightmares were going wild and he knew that with the way he was feeling right now, they would not calm.
