Welcome to chapter 3. I'm really glad so many people like my story so far. I'll try to update this story once a day every day unless something unexpected comes up to where I won't be near my computer. When I first started on fanfiction I did this with all my stories, but then school got harder and so I didn't have time to do that anymore. But now that it's summer I should be able to start doing it again with at least this story.
The Lost Hidden Village
After a couple hours the meeting finally came to an end, but as always North wanted to be able to sit and talk with his friends for a while about none guardian related stuff, like that had been since they started having meetings. However when North got up to move everyone to the more comfortable living room type area, and see if Jack needed help walking with his injured foot and all, he noticed that Jack wasn't there anymore.
"Where is Jack?" North asked turning to Tooth and Sandy.
"As soon as you said that the meeting was over he flew out the window. Bunny followed about thirty seconds after." Tooth said. Sandy on the other hand was making little gold pictures above his head asking when they would go in to the other room and if there would be snacks served in there. North laughed.
"Yes, yes Sandy. We go in other room now and yeti will bring snacks. I guess Jack and Bunny will just miss out on all the fun we have no?" North said as he, Tooth, and Sandy made their way into the living area.
***About A Mile From Jack's Lake, In A Tunnel Underground***
Bunny was following Jack. He knew there was something off with the kid and although he wouldn't admit it, he was worried about the kid. Though that might be because of Frost's injured foot.
Poking his head about ground for a minute to check for Jack's sent, Bunny realized he had made it to the lake and he could see Frost standing by some rather large rocks.
Quickly Bunny hid while Jack moved some of the rocks aside reviling a rather large hole that seemed to lead to a tunnel. Jack then slipped into the hole and moved a rock back in front of it, probably so that no one unwanted would find it and follow him.
After waiting a minute to make sure Jack wasn't coming back up, Bunny advanced toward the rocks and slipped down the hole himself.
After about half an hour or so of walking/running through the tunnel the hole led to, Bunny finally made it to what appeared to be a village of some sort that he guessed was hidden right under the lake. Though after looking a bit closer Bunny had to bite back a gasp.
There were about ten to fifteen houses, but these were no ordinary human or even spirit made houses.
They were Pooka made.
Bunny recognized the style from years on his home planet so long ago. The outside being like a larger sturdier domed version of a nest, while the inside there were smaller actual nests meant for sleeping along with whatever belongings and food storage the Pooka that lived there had.
After another glance around from where he was standing, Bunny noticed there didn't seem to be any life here and most of the buildings seemed to be falling apart in some way. Not to mention the grave yard he spotted a few yards away seemed to be full except for one or two plots.
'Ghost town.' Bunny thought. 'Must have been a good twenty to thirty that lived here once, escaped Pitch on our home planet. From the looks of things they were attacked here. Probably all dead now.'
Bunny shook his head and tried to focus on the task at hand. Making sure Jack was ok.
As Bunny hopped through the village and noticed more and more ice he figured that since this was under Jacks Lake, Jack must have found it and buried the bodies and cleaned up best he could. Then he most likely started living here.
The more he looked around the more reasonable his theory became. As many areas where it was clear a Pooka had died had been cleaned up and turned into a form of icy shrine to whoever had once lain there.
It made Bunny smile to think Jack would go through so much trouble as to help these Pooka into the afterlife like this and taking the time to bury them.
Bunny only wished that those who died on his home planet had gotten the same or at least similar treatment, but in his rush to get out of the attack Bunny couldn't burry those at home. So there bodies were probably still scattered the way they were left when they died.
After about an hour of looking around Bunny finally found Jack at the crumbling old house nearest to the grave yard. Ducking out of sight he watched as Jack carefully removed a silver necklace he had hidden under his hoodie.
Once the necklace was removed and set on the small stump most pookas back in the day had used for tables, a bright light surrounded Jack and Bunny had to look away from fear of being blinded.
Once Bunny looked back he was sure his jaw hit the floor as he gasped…
