okay, I'm done being all goo-goo eyes over reviews (though I do love them LOTS) we have business to get down to.

I have decided for those who wish to learn more about Cupid and Bunny before they split, I will post a side story at some point and will alert everyone when it is up. (be warned, it will not be for those like me who cry over pairings, it will not end happy AT ALL))

For the Mpreg, EVERYONE thought that idea was a go (including me) so it is happening! Jack is going to be pregnant, and well, you can all wait and see what happens :3

It all

starts

NOW!

Jack woke to a sharp pain in his lower back. His clear blue eyes fluttered open to be met by the dirt ceiling of his own room in Aster's warren. He yawned, and when he stretched, his muscles groaned in protest. He was indeed alone, and by the looks of all the fluids on the sheets he laid in, and the crusted on ones that laid between his legs and on his abdomen, Bunny had not stopped when he had fallen asleep.

The clear liquid that seemed to cause all of the problems was still all over him, but it wasn't as bad. He sighed, and looked around at what he could. His body was littered with love bites and hickeys, but nothing was like the clearly visible bite that pulsed on his shoulder. He felt his insides flutter at the sight, and couldn't help but smile. Despite all of his fears, Bunny wanted him just as much as he wanted the Aussie.

Just as happy tears pooled in his eyes, said Pooka walked into the room and dropped a tray of food on the floor. "Jack? Oh MiM Jack I'm so sorry, I swear I just couldn't stop myself, I tried." Aster quickly hopped over to the other guardian, pulling him close.

Jack felt a little confused as to what Aster was referring to, and said quickly "Whoa, slow down Kangaroo, what's going on? what are you sorry for?"

Bunny looked at him, his spring green eyes full of self loathing. "You're crying mate, I... I took advantage of ya'. You didn't even know what was happening, and I moved in on ya' anyway. I'm so sorry Jackie, I can break the bond if ya wan-"

"Hey! I said slow down!" Jack snapped, but his voice wasn't harsh, it was more demanding. "I never said that I didn't want what happened last night Aster." The Aussie seemed to realize that he was serious when he used the Pooka's actual name. "Sure it wasn't what I expected when you said you wanted to talk, but... it wasn't bad." There was frost coating his cheeks as he continued "Look, I know what this," He pointed to the mark "and I don't care. I know that to you, and half of me, this mark means more than anything. North has books, and well, I would love to be your mate, and not the word for friend that you use every other sentence."

Aster chuckled a little at his little Frostbite, but felt a sense of joy well up in his chest. Jack wanted to be his, after all those years of worrying, Jack was going to accept one of the oldest Pooka traditions and be with him for eternity.

"But Bunny..." Jack's eyes went to the tray of food that was dropped on the floor.

"Yeah Jackie?"

"That food looks amazing, and I would get it myself, but it hurts to move."

"Right!" Quickly Aster was on his feet and scrambling to salvage any food that didn't touch the floor. Most of it was edible, and he set the tray in front of Jack, just as quickly crawling back into bed with him.

As Jack sat up slowly, ignoring the pain in his lower back, he scarfed down the food in front of him. Normally people thought he didn't eat because, well, he was dead after all, but in all truth, he did. Near the beginning of his life as Jack Frost, he had gotten himself accustomed to eating, and soon his body digested food like it normally would have. It's what happened if you were some magical being he guessed.

Aster chuckled at the way his mate was eating, and stroked his back lovingly. Suddenly his nose twitched, and his eyes shot to the door of Jacks room. Another dominant male was nearby. His most primitive and locked up instincts came out at the thought of another dominant male laying their eyes on his naked mate. Quickly the Pooka jumped up and turned to Jack. "I have ta' go check something love. I'll be right back, you stay here." He kissed the boys forehead and then bounded off into his warren.

Passing through the tunnels he had dug out himself, the smell got stronger. Of course, whoever this threat was, he was in the meadow. The Aussie soon emerged into the clearing of egglets and grass with all of the flowers and sun a Pooka could ever need. His eyes narrowed and his nose twitched. The scent was strong, and the dominant male should be near.

"Bunny! Vhe have been looking everyvhere for you!" North bellowed in his thick accent, walking out from behind one of the poorly placed trees. "Vhere is Jack? There has been trouble, the lights have been going all night."

Immediately Aster cursed himself. He was surely skinned now. There was no way that North was going to accept what had happened between him and his Jack last night. "Ah, really? Well, he's nappin' so... I'll just... I'll go get 'im." Bunny tried to smile convincingly, but it was failed in his own ears.

"Vhat is the matter?" North asked, his suddenly cold eyes eyed him suspiciously.

"Nothin' mate, he'll be right here." and before anymore questions could be ask, the Easter Bunny bounded off as quickly as he came. He was sure that Tooth was somewhere looking for Jack, and that thought wasn't exactly comforting either. Tooth was as much his Jacks mother as North was his father.

When Bunny walked back into the room, Jack was up and had just pulled a white sweater over his head. Aster recognized it as the one that Tooth had given him last Christmas. He was also in a pair of old blue jeans that clung to his hips and thighs, but loosened quite a bit around his ankles.

"As much as I love lookin' at ya frostbite, we got a problem love." Bunny said with a grimace, running a paw over his face.

~~~~ROTG~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ROTG~~~~~~~~~

Cupid laid on his side, the tears dried on his now pale face, bruises littering his body. His white silk top was torn and had blood surrounding the cuts. His pink shorts had been tossed carelessly to the floor, and he remained with nothing covering the bottom half of his body. A number of bodily fluids covered him, and blood could be seen underneath his now broken fingernails.

The most noticeable thing about him was that his long and beautiful pink hair had been chopped off crudely, leaving shorter and longer patched, his hair barely going past his ears.

When the door to the dungeon he slept in flung open, the spirit of love flinched and curled into himself, willing it to not be who he knew it was.

"Why hello my little pet." Pitch whispered in his ear, sliding a hand down one abused leg, and then back up. "I see you still look awful, and that's good. Now, maybe you'll tell me what I want to know. How do I break this little spell you have on me, and how do I get Jack to fall for me." the nightmare king snapped his fingers, and one of his loyal nightmares ran in, handing him something Cupid didn't bother to look at.

"You an pry it from my lifeless lips you filthy loveless twat." the angel spat through cracked lips, his vengeful eyes glaring at Pitch with every ounce of menace he could bear.

"Wrong answer." Pitch growled, and lifted up a knife, pushing the angel onto his stomach. "I wonder, what do you call an angel without wings." He mused, cackling madly when those pretty eyes widened in fear. The nightmare king pressed the blade right beside where the end of the love spirits wing bone was, and dug it into his back slowly, reveling in the screams that erupted from the tortured angels throat.

~~~~ROTG~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ROTG~~~~~

Jack and Bunny sat next to each other, heads hung like children caught kissing in the janitors closet. North paced the floor in front of one of the red couches in the north pole, his hands clasped firmly behind his back.

"one day, and you do this. One day alone!" His voice rose only slightly, but the quietness of North was never a good thing.

"Now North, I do agree that their actions were irrational and could have waited, but it's already done." Tooth shot a glare over at the couch, but then her gaze softened when she saw how they clutched each other, despite their current predicament.

North stopped pacing and looked at them, his eyes cold and hard "Jack will stay here from now on."

"Now hold on there a second mate, Jack and I are mated now, you aren't taking him away from me!" Aster jumped up, becoming just as menacing as the large Russian.

"I am Jacks, how you say, father figure, I decide where he will stay!" North bellowed back.

"I'm his mate, I get to decide where my doe-"

"YOUR DOE?! JACK IS NO-!"

"HEY!" Jack shouted suddenly, his eyes frosty and almost glowing. His ears were up at attention and his tail twitched aggravated. "I decide where I will stay and that's final!" he turned to glare at Bunny "I can fight my own fights, so sit your cottontail down!"

Without question Aster sat back down, a little frightened by his doe's reaction.

"and you!" Jack turned to glare at North next "I am perfectly capable of protecting myself and can shoot that rabbit in the crotch if need be! Now tell me why you had to come and interrupt our perfect morning!"

Everyone in the room looked at him a little wary, for they all knew what could happen if Jack Frost was in a mood. North cleared his throat and said in a less violent voice "Cupid has been kidnapped. His servants say that when they went to go check on their master, his room was in disarray and there were poison arrows on the ground, one with blood on the tip. Black blood."

Bunny felt a sharp pang to his chest. They had just seen the bloke that day, and after everything... He clenched his paw into a tight fist, and growled "Who did it?"

Everyone in the room looked at him curiously, but North continued. "Only tainted spirits have black blood, and the only one that has not been sighted elsewhere at the time of the abduction, is Pitch. Sandman is out now, looking through dreams, searching for him."

With and enraged cry, Aster slammed his fist into one of the coffee tables, it breaking in half. "Why didn't you come and get me sooner!" He yelled at North and got into the Russians face. "Why aren't you all out looking for him?! Do you have any idea what could happen to him!"

They all looked at him with shock on their faces, but Jack wasn't surprised. He was surprised that Aster was brave enough to stand that close to North right now, but he wasn't surprised that Bunny was angry. There seemed to be something unresolved between the two spirits, but wasn't worried. He knew that Aster loved him. He was worried that Cupid loved Aster.

~~~~~~ROTG~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ROTG~~~

Weeks passed and there was no sign of the angel. Restlessly they searched and searched for him, but Pitch seemed to have hidden well this time. Aster began to lose sleep, and this troubled the frost spirit, among other things.

Two weeks after they had both stayed at the North Pole, he began to get sick. All the time he would eat something completely weird and off the wall that would taste amazing, but then a few hours later everything would just come back up.

A month after that, he began to get emotional, and gained weight. If anyone commented he would either throw something at them, or burst into tears. He still constantly ate, and just couldn't stop, but the puking ceased.

The second month he began to silently panic. Only his stomach was rounding out, and it was starting to be noticeable to everyone. Every day he cried into his pillow, because Aster was not there. They were all so occupied with finding Cupid that Aster never noticed anything. They stopped talking, and it was effecting Jack more than he let anyone know.

He sat in the laundry room, folding his clothed with sniffles and tears running down his cheeks when he heard the light flutter of wings. Quickly he wiped his face and said with a small, sad smile "Hey Tooth."

The fairy looked at him with a somber expression and said "Jack, don't do that to me. Please, I'm here to help." She smiled softly and wrapped an arm around him.

Jack smiled, but the tears returned. He hid his face into the colorful feathers on the fairies neck, and sobbed. "I don't know what to do Tooth, he doesn't even look at me anymore."

"I know, I know." She whispered, and stroked his back lovingly. Her hand just happened to rest on Jacks very large stomach, and though she knew better to say anything, it was rather odd. His arms and legs were a little more pudgy, but nothing fit the size of his stomach. Just as she was wondering what could have caused such an odd weight gain, something bumped against her hand.

With wide eyes both guardians looked down to his stomach, and the bump happened again.

Jacks crying ceased and he moved away from Tooth, putting two hands to his round belly, and felt two more. He covered his mouth and looked at Tooth, them both knowing what to do without saying anything.

together they cried loudly "NORTH!" fear in both of their voices.

Wow... lots of drama there. you know, i am actually really proud of this chapter, and i will admit it. I feel pretty good.

Now to those of you who are like "why didn't anyone notice Jack was preganant?" I have an explanation. They were all concerned with finding Cupid (because he is important, without him, people in the world stop loving one another) so nobody stopped long enough to connect the pieces.

as for Jack not knowing, he was depressed people. His mate wasn't talking to him and he was all hormonal from pregancy he didnt have time to worry about why he was fat, he just felt fat (no offense to pregnant people)

so now that thats out of the way, I'll start that BunnyxCupid story and another warning Do not read it if you want there to be a happy ending.

love yall

R&R please!
