~Chapter 4: Two Hopes for Destruction~
Tooth shrieked as she and Bunny were covered in sand. It burned her eyes as a bit of it seeped in. She fluttered her wings in an attempt to surface the sand-trap. She succeeded as her head popped out of the grainy substance with the Pooka right behind them. Both spat the sand that was in their mouths out. Tooth blinked twice and coughed. The Tooth Fairy saw Sandy, North, and Jack trying to pull them out of the trap, even though her vision was blurred. "Hihihihihihihihihihi hihihihihihihihihihihihihihihihiHI!" Rang out a voice. "Who're you*cough*?"Bunny spluttered. A pure white smile smiled at them,"My name's Cupula!" cackled the girl as Tooth was hauled to her feet,"Did ya like my death trap?" "NO!" roared Aster," It almost KILLED us!" Cupula's grin only got bigger. "That's the point, silly!" she giggled. "Why would you need a death trap if you're all alone in the middle of the desert?" questioned Jack who was more curious than angry. "'Cause it's FUNNNNNNNN!" she crowed as she waved her arms back and forth, in an insane manor. They (FINALLY) took notice of what she was wearing; a dark blue beret, a striped scarf, purple shirt, black pants, faux-silk red boots, and faux-silk red gloves. What was perplexing to the Guardians were those glowing, neon green eyes. They were filled with such warmth and happiness that they seemed to be as bright as the sun. Cupula also had a cream-colored tail with a red tip and red and cream ears.
"ALMOST KILLING US IS FUN?!" Tooth gulped. When Bunny was pissed, everyone should stay away from him a good few hours. Unfortunatly, the cat-hybrid didn't know that..."Yeah," came the simple reply. The Pooka growled as he grabbed his boomerangs in an attempt to stop himself from pouncing on the girl; he wouldn't hurt his future comrad, even though she tried to kill him. Bunny whipped around and stomped his way to the sleigh before muttering to Tooth,""Might be friendly,' huh? Yeah, friendly enough to kill us..." Cupula tilted her head to the side," What are ya guys doing here? No one comes here without a good reason." Sandy made a magnifying glass and then pointed a finger at her. "Looking for me? Why?" "The moon chose you to be a Guardian,"explained North. "Why?" "MiM thinks you can help us defeat an enemy who is very dangerous." "Why?" "Oh, no! You won't start that game with me!" "Why?" "It's ANNOYING!" "Why?" "...just get in the sleigh..." "KK!" she chirped before jumping into the wagon with her tail traveling behind her. "Lets a goooooo!" The rest of the Guardians followed behind her. This was going to intresting...
~LINE BREAK~
Cupula's POV(Finally! A POV!)
As we lifted from the ground, I gazed at the land below; I realized it was more beautiful viewing it from above rather than the bottom, though no one found the desert and heat attractive. It was only viewed as a disaster, a sin. It made made my core sing in sadness from the lack of love for the warmth. Why? Why do they hate me? Why why why why why why why why why why WHY?! "Hey, Cupula, are you ok?" asked that dude with the white hair. I glanced at him and smiled happily. The good thing about being crazy is that you can hide your emotions well. "Yeah, I'm fine Jacky! Just looking at the desert is all!" I noticed him sweating profusely, probably because of me...in fact, ALL of them were sweating! I felt a pang of guilt sting my internal flame heart. I was causing them to suffer.
I hid my face with my long strand of hazel hair; I felt like I needed more heat in my core. "Hey guys!," I exclaimed in my usual perky voice,"Got anything I can munch on?" That angry Bunny rabbit (I think he looks more like a kangaroo...)said to me,"Wait until we're there, brat..." I wasn't supposed to hear the last word, but since I had cat ears, I could hear a lot more sounds than the regular spirit. I don't pay attention to that comment; I DID try to kill them anyway. The ship went so fast that it quickly became cold. I shivered as I felt a fridgid blast of cold wind surrounded the sleigh. I think that we're almost there! Now that we're so close to our destination, I saw snow everywhere, making my core's temperature sky-rocket upwards to protect itself from freezing. I started to freeze from the overwhelming cold until I felt a heat string tug at my heart. Heat strings are like compasses except they locate the closest heat source instead of the direction. Those strings were pointing in front of the sleigh, directing us to a huge looking house. I bet I could find some type of candy in there! "Are we going there?" I squeled. The guy with a Russian accent looked back at me,"Yes." I looked in wonder as we landed...it was a WORKSHOP, not a house! It looked so awesome! "Cookie Crackers!" I exclaimed. I got weird stares from everyone. "Hey! I was dragged here against my will! You now have to deal with my language!" "For your information, Firecracker, you jumped into the sleigh! We didn't drag you kicking and screaming to the sleigh!"growled Kanga- I mean Bunny. I pouted. "I can't resist shiny things! Not my fault! Did you just give me a nickname? When are we going inside? Lets go!" And with that, I rushed into the door, forgetting to open it. "Oops." I opened the door and ran inside. Instantly, I felt warmth flood my senses, making me sigh in relief.
Some people may say that fresh air is the best medicine. It's not. It's feeling warmth and security that makes you feel better, and the atmosphere of the workshop cocooned around all of us. I saw toys, yetis, and..."OMG! They're so CUTE!" I said, cuddling an elf. I love elves. They were always cute and friendly. I was on the floor until I felt a huge hand grab the back of my scarf and lift me up in the air, making me drop the elf. I screeched and made my fire fryingpan come to life. I grabbed the handle and was about to make a swing, but another hand came and grabbed my wrist that held my weapon. "Phil, put the girl down," came North's voice. I looked at the hand on my wrist and noticed that it was North's(don't ask how I know whos hand is whos!)With a startled yelp, I dropped to the ground with a thud. I dematerialized my weapon and stood up, not embarresed in the least. I grinned my signature smile at all of the Guardians. I guess this guy seemed cool, so did that guy made out of sand. Have I mentioned that I LOVE sand? It's fudgin' easy to cover my tracks with it at nighttime since sand doesn't hold heat in for long! It's really useful when you're being chased down by Mud Gollums; those guys eat fires and come out only at night. That's one of the reasons I usually stay in the desert. Another reason is that I love the daytime's heat. Anyway, back to the story! I guess those guys were cool, but I still don't trust any of them yet; that Bunny almost hit me with his "BOOOOmerangs"! I know that I almost killed him, but HE walked into the trap! It was for the Mud Gollums! Still... "What do we do now?" I asked. I heard a snarl. An angry one coming from behind me...
"How about you tell me why the hell I'm here?"
