Okay, so the globe room was attacked…again(reference to the movie)! But now things are getting interesting and obviously the plot it developing. Also, this is a shorter chapter and I have pics of Summer on my DA profile, which is SpiritofSummer7713! Enjoy!
Chapter Five: What in the Heck was THAT?!
[1st person POV; Summer]
As soon as Pitch was gone I stumbled over to Tooth, barely noticing my leg. Right now my main concern was her and what made me feel worse was that she wasn't flying. Worriedly I sat down/ collapsed next to her and looked her over for any wounds.
"Are you alright Toothiana? I heard you scream and, well…are you wings okay?" I asked, seeing three of them bent out of shape.
"I'm alright Summer. I just won't be flying for a few days is all. The nightmare didn't damage my wings that badly. What about you? Your leg looks awful!" She said, the last part in extreme motherly concern.
"It's nothing; I can barely feel it." I answered, trying to shrug it off.
"Well I guess that means you can answer a question I have then?" Bunnymund asked while hopping over.
"And that would be?" I asked back.
"What in the HECK was THAT?! What did you just do? None of us have been able to make Pitch turn tail and run that fast mate!" Bunny shouted, his surprise clear.
I looked at him confused for a good moment. Was he talking about the light burst I did? Usually they aren't that magnificent but, with summer comes light. Doesn't he know that?
"The light burst is part of my powers. It comes with the job of being the Guardian of Summer… With summer comes light. Sunlight to be precise but it's light none the less. I thought you would've put those two together by now." I explained, receiving a lot of shocked stares from the Guardians staring at me.
For a moment it was dead silent and nobody spoke, not even Toothiana. She, like everyone else had this look on their face, like they had just found out something important. I sat on the ground utterly confused about what was happening. It was only after a good moment or two that Jack, of all people, spoke.
"That's why they're after you. You're light, their opposite. It must be why you were made a Guardian. You can stop Kuroi!" He said, explaining it as well.
Everyone was nodding and stared at me and then up at the sun that was shining through the opening in the roof. Its' rays shined down on the globe room, illuminating the space and reflecting off the metal surface. However, one ray moved by itself and over to a circular platform where it soon started making shapes out of shadows. Some, which I recognized immediately, were symbols of two friends I know very well. It seemed that the others were at a loss as to what it meant, though and looked back at me.
"Summer, do you understand what that means?" North asked me.
"Yes, I do. It means that Jack might be right…and that I also need to see some friends of mine. They might be able to help." I answered.
North stroked his beard for a moment and then turned to Phil and said, "Prepare the sleigh. We must get Summer to his friends. Also, bring first aid kit."
I watched as Jack and Bunnymund ran off to go get ready while North and Sandy were conversing by the fireplace. All the while, deep down inside, I was finally feeling the shock of everything and realizing that not only was Jack 100% correct but that I was the only person I knew that controlled light…which means that I'm the only one that can get rid of the dark. As the pressure grew inside I felt a calming and small hand on my shoulder. Looking at the person it belonged to I found Tooth staring at me with a smile.
"Summer, it'll be okay. You're not alone in this and I'll be there to help you through whatever happens." She told me, pulling me into a hug afterwards.
Hugging her back I whispered, "Thank you Toothiana." And prepared myself for what would turn into the biggest thing to happen in my whole existence.
Yeah, short chapter but important none the less. Anyway, please rate and once again, I have pictures of Summer and the upcoming OCs on my DA profile, which is SpiritofSummer7713. ^w^
