I do not own rotg or httyd or tangled or brave
Here's chapter 17
Chapter 17:
The group returned back to hemostaz, feeling relieved and happy for their achievement. Even though they are also happy, the sibilings know that they are still far from victory. After their defeat, their enemies will surly be more determined that ever to possese the remainig keys. The group agreed to place the blue pearl in a highly secured vault in order to prevent Minerva or any other from stealing it.
The sleigh landed near the palace. Bunny got of first, his face green and stomach twisted. The large rabbit is relieved that finally his feet is touching solid ground.
"What?, is the mighty warrior rabbit scared of a little height" taunted Merida
"Merida" scolded Rapunzel
"if rabbits were meant to fly, we would have grown wings " replied bunny "and I wasn't scared. I was nerves"
"yeah, keep telling yourself that kangaroo" said Jack
"listen here frostbi
"let's go to sandy and show Sandy the pearl, shall we" interrupted Hiccup, preventing a fight from starting.
The two complied. Jack did with a smile, while bunny did with a grumpy expression. the group headed towards father time's chambers and saw Sandy in the same position when they left him. Each of the golden man's hands was on each of the time lord's temple. his forehead creased as he concentrated hard.
When the doors were open Sandy turned his head towards the sound and saw the group entering with happy faces .
"we did it uncle" said Rapunzel happily
"yeah you should have seen the look on that snake woman's face" said Merida
" and the look on Jack's after we won" said hiccup " I can tell that he enjoyed himself" teased Hiccup
"shut up hiccup" spat Jack
"do not deny it Jackie boy, she is a beautiful woman, and you are lucky gaining the love of a man hating woman" said cupid
While Jack was bickering with the rest, Punzie informed him of everything that happened. And Sandy couldn't help but laugh(silently) at Jack, but the same time he was proud of all of them. The dream maker was interrupted from his thoughts by Merida.
"I wonder if it was a Coincidence that we met Minerva there, she was very prepared, as if she expected us to be on the same island"
"your right" said Hiccup "she did seem like she knew we would be there"
Sandy caught their attention and started to sign
"I don't understand sandy" said north
"sandy says that this is a defense mechanism father and mother used in their heads in case something like this ever happen" replied Jack "they couldn't completely close their minds from external influences, so they organized their memories of the key whereabouts in a specific order".
"W-what?!" said bunny
"in shorts the memories we see of a specific key from Father time will be the same the others will see from mother nature" said Eros
"so they anticipated this?" asked tooth
"so it seems, those two never cease to amaze me" replied cupid
"Sandy I really think you should go and rest, you've been working none stop for days" said Rapunzel in a worried tone
Sandy smiled at her and assured her that he is alright.
"Punzie is right uncle" said Merida "if you keep pushing yourself like this you will collapse"
"I know you are worried" said Hiccup "we all are, and just as you got tired Pitch will be tired as well"
"plus the more you rest the better chance you will get at exploring father's memories" said Jack
The Sandman looked at his nephews and nieces then nodded with a smile. They were right. He can't overwork and weaken himself and let their enemies win. He needs to rest his body.
The sandman waved his hands to everyone and headed to his sleeping chambers. The group watched Sandy leave then jack spoke while looking at the pearl between his hands.
"well let's get you all locked up and protected"
"is this really okay?" asked tooth
"yeah Sandy has been working none stop for days, he need to rest and so do we if we want to face Minerva again" said hiccup
"aye, especially since summer and winter are on their way, jack and I would be busy" said Merida
"vut winter is over no?" asked North
"it is in the Northern hemisphere, but it's starting in the southern" explained Jack "I just hope that we would find all of the keys before that time"
The group started to walk in the corridors. Occasionally meeting servants and palace guards who bow whenever they see the royal siblings. the guardians tend to forget that the siblings are royalty, especially Jack. His choice of clothing and way of speaking tends to deceive the guardians. Never in their mind did they think that the guardian of fun, .Their fun-loving mischievous prankster is a king. When you hear of a king you expect him to be mature and serious. Brave, wise, and strong. Not that Jack wasn't strong and brave, it's just unbelievable.
"you know mate, I still find it hard to believe that you are a king" said bunny.
"welcome to the club, we got jackets" replied Jack
"you know Jack you didn't talk much about that" said tooth
"not much to know, just a boring life, stamping this and signing this, nothing interesting" replied Jack
"if mother nature and father time are king and queen, how are all of you are kings and queens as vell?" asked north
"we are kings and queens of our seasons, but mother and father are the high king and queen. They hold authority on all of us, while we only hold authority over our own people" explained Hiccup
"but father time is not a seasonal or an elemental, so how is he the high king of both?" asked tooth
"nature and time works side by side" said hiccup " for example, day and night, both are natural phenomena that represent time." answered Hiccup
"so does the seasons" said Jack "they represent nature and time"
the three guardians nodded in understanding and continued to walk. Toothless who was walking with the siblings started to bump hiccups shoulder with his head
"you hungry bud?" asked hiccup
The black dragon nodded and started to pull Hiccups sleeve.
"alright alright" laughed hiccup "just hold your horses" the brunette king looked back at the group "I'll catch up with you later".
The group watched hiccup and toothless leave before bunny spoke
"ya know back at the island you four weren't bad" said bunny then he looked at cupid who gave him a look that translated into 'what about me? Am I not suited to be in your top5 warrior list?'
"you were not bad either lover boy" said bunny
"gracias amigo" replied Eros
"I do not mean to ve rude or anything" said North "but I thought cupid looked….different"
"don't worry you're not being rude, the modern image that people have of me is because of my cherubs" said cupid
"your cherubs?" asked north
"they're like the tooth fairy's fairies, but mine are winged baby like beings"
"you should see them they're really cute" said Rapunzel in a fan-girling way
"aye, but they can cause some serious trouble" said Merida in her Scottish accent
"yeah a heck of troubles" said Jack while laughing " I remember that one of the cherubs was assigned to heal a man with a broken heart by making him fall in love with another girl. the cherub kept shooting at different girls while missing the man. In the end the girls started to literally wrestle to win the guy's heart(lucky guy). Lover boy here had to interfere and make everything right. It was awful and cool at the same time. It made me realize something important though. Women are scary beings when angered so don't mess with them in that state".
"that was one of my most awful days in my career and I've been in this business for a very long..long time. That cherub is now assigned to clean toilets for a whole century." Said Eros
"that's a bit harsh" said Rapunzel
"well I have to be, problems like this can lead to catastrophic aftermaths like revenge out of jealousy. Love is a complicated beautiful delicate feeling. You have to treat it with respect." Said the winged archer
"your job can't be that hard apple head" said bunny "ya only work at valentine day"
"that's where you are wrong amigo, I do not only work at valentine day. I like the tooth fairy and the sandman work every day, but I work double at valentine. Love is not bound by a specific time or place."
"true" said Merida "but I am a better archer than you"
"is that a challenge princess?" asked Eros
"you don't want to challenge a hot headed maiden lover boy"
"then its settled" said jack "you two are competing against each other" then he turned to one of the servants "go prepare the targets" ordered jack. The servant bowed and went to perform his duty.
The group made their way to the summer gardens(not before placing the pearl in the vault) where two targets were prepared. The two archers were warming up before shooting, north and bunny were betting. Bunny on Merida while North on Eros. Rapunzel was neutral cheering both red-haired warriors. Tooth wasn't paying attention to the competition, instead she was looking at the palace and admiring its details
"you know" said tooth "because of the previous events I couldn't see the palace and the realm properly. They're really beautiful"
"it is isn't it?" said jack "i'll never forget the first time I lied my eyes on the palace and the realm in nighttime and the stars were shining so brightly, I was mesmerized. this is also one of the few places that the four seasons can assemble and not threaten the balance of nature."
" what do you mean?" asked tooth
"as you know every season has its own temperature, and as the bringers of seasons we can't stay together at the same place for long times. It causes our seasons to clash. and when that happens, some serious natural disasters can occur. This place and our own kingdoms are the only places where we can stay together without endangering anyone. But because of our responsibilities we don't meet with each other that often."
"before all of this happened. When was the last time you met them?" asked tooth
"well I haven't met punzie for forty years, Hiccup about 65, and Merida for 80 years"
Tooth felt terrible. Even though Jack has a family they can't meet each other even if they wanted to because of what they are and because of their responsibilities. It made her think of herself and the other guardians. Sure they have responsibilities as well, but they can always make time for each other. Either to say hello check on one another or wish each other a merry Christmas and a happy Easter. The more she thought about it the more tooth felt grateful for her job and friends and the more she felt bas for Jack and the fact that they left him alone for 300 years.
"I'm sorry" said tooth
"you don't need to apologize. it's not your fault. We are together now even though it's at a time of crisis. Besides, if we met each other more often, we'll be bored of one another and seek to stay away from each other." Assured Jack
Tooth laughed "well when you put it that way" and turned her gaze towards the competition, so far it's a draw. North and bunny are excited and cheering on top of their lungs. Tooth was looking at the scene with a warm smile.
"sorry" said Jack
Tooth tore her gaze from the persistent archers and beters towards the spirit of winter "w-wha?"
Pale blue looked at amethyst eyes "sorry for involving you in this mess when you just dealt with pitch. Especially since this is our problem not yours."
"don't say that jack, we did this because you are our friend. And if our position was reversed I know that you won't hesitate to help me. Besides it does involve us since everyone is in danger which include the children. And even if we didn't know, sooner or later we would have been involved anyway" the tooth fairy queen assured the winter king.
Jack smiled at tooth "thank you" he said
"you're welcome" she smiled back
They were looking warmly into each other's eyes before they were snapped back to reality by bunny's and North's voice who are arguing on who is the better archer. Eros was smiling while shooting, how can't he when he is feeling love in the air 'I love my job' he thought
Break…
"The master is furious" said Minerva "hurry and find the other key boogeyman"
The said boogeyman looked at the snake witch with exhausted eyes.
"I'm doing the best I can, so stop ordering me woman" spat the nightmare king
"well your best is clearly not enough, you better find it soon" she spat back
"or what?, let me remind you that you are the one who failed to acquire the key not me, so I suggest you watch your tongue. Furthermore, I cannot continue this any longer I have drained my energy trying to find the last key.
"if you rest know those siblings will"
"will be having the say problem as us" interrupted the boogeyman "I am sure that the sandman is as tired as I am, so rest assure. Now leave and let me rest"
Minerva glared at the nightmare king before sighing "fine, but start as soon as possible"
The boogeyman looked at the woman leave before switching his gaze to the other woman sleeping on a rock table. He didn't know why. But every time he looked at the spirit of nature old memories he tried to burry long ago resurfaced. Every time he looked at her face her snow white face that is decorated with blood red lips and black hair, the faces of his late wife and daughter came to his mind. The faces that hunted him for a very long time and brought the happy memories of a life that he lost. It pained him. it pained him so much. But why? Why would this woman remind him of his wife and daughter. He never met the queen before now. He doesn't know her, only heard of her. Deciding that enough is enough, he willed himself to stay away from the room to stay away from her. At least till he rested enough. With one last look at the sleeping woman, pitch left the room
Again I'm sorry for not updating soon. I tried to make the chapter long to make it up to you. I know that this chapter is not that good but I hope you like it.
I wonder who is gonna win Merida or Eros what do you think? Who do you choose? And who will win the bet?
I realized that I made a mistake in chapter 10 pitch didn't have nightmare horses back then he had fearlings so I'm thinking of rewriting it.
I don't have a title for this chapter give me suggestions.
And finally review
