Adrias POV
"Ugh what a day", Adria groaned as she looked for her house key in in her very messy backpack. Finally feeling its familiar ridge in her hands she pulled the yellow key out and placed it in the lock.
"Hello?", She screamed after walking in. ...No answer. "They must still be at work."
The brunette walked upstairs and dumped her bag on her bed.
"Hey watch where your throwin things!", a muffled Australian accent yelled angrily.
Adria pulled up her backpack to see a mini bunny sprawled out on her bed. She gasped, " oh bunny I'm so sorry I forgot you were all in here."
Bunny stood up."How can you forget?! Do miniature guardians appear in your room every morn...?!"
Tooth interrupted the male guardian by hitting him behind the head. "Quiet Bunny!"
Thankful for the lecture being over Adria looked at the guardians, " did anyone come in here and see you guys."
Sandy shook his head.
"Ok good. It probably wouldn't be a good idea if people found out about you guys."
"Why not?", Jack asked, "people can see us, isn't that good."
Adria looked at him and raised an eyebrow and thought, ' do they not realize they are cartoon characters? Maybe I shouldn't tell them if they don't know.'
"Jack, lil'girl is right. There is reason Mannie only lets those who believe see us. It is because if the non-believers see us it is not innocent faith but greed for our magic that will fill their hearts." North shook his head. "No we don't want that, we must stay secret."
Adria thought about this, ' well there's that and the fact that if its discovered that they are movie characters that came too life, they'd be dissected in 5 minutes flat by overly curious scientists in this world.'
Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a door slamming shut. "Adria, you home?!" Nina loud voice was heard from downstairs.
"Dede?!" A shrill little voice screamed after her.
"Who's that?" Jack asked leaning back into his staff.
"My little cousin Marie." She said in a rush then turned toward her door and yelled back, "up here!"
She turned back to the guardians, " ok so if your serious about staying hidden, which I think is what you should do by the way..."
'Since its for your own safety', she thought but decided not to add in.
"...I don't think you should let kids know either though. They tend to be blabber mouths and in this state...", she picked up Jack by the hood of his hoodie, " ...you can't exactly defend yourselves."
Jack started kicking his legs and Adria couldn't help but think it was the cutest thing ever, it reminded her of Bunnys eggs in the movie. Well it was cute until he touched his staff on her finger and she dropped him from the sudden chill.
"Wind carry me", Jack yelled. But nothing happened. "Argggghh", the spirit yelled after realizing his long time friend would not save him and wasn't just toying with him this time.
Noticing the youngest of the guardians screaming, Adria's quick reflexes grabbed him from the air. She opened up her fingers to reveal a traumatized winter spirit.
Jack looked stunned, "Wha...why didn't the wind help me? It was gonna let me die."
"Mate, Mannie isn't the same here; so maybe the wind isn't either."
"Bunnys right Jack, don't worry to much about it. Besides Adria caught you just in time."
The brunette put Jack back on her bed and turned away crossing her arms. "Shouldn't of too, seeing as you tried to give me frostbite."
Jack pointed her staff at her. "Hey you manhandled me! I had no choice."
Adria turned around an evil glint in her eye. "I was just proving a point. But trust me ill get my revenge." Jack took a timid step back.
Bunny started laughing, "Bought time someone put frostbite in his place."
Suddenly everyone heard clapping and looked over to where it was coming from. Apparently Sandy was trying to get everyone's attention for a while and was getting rather annoyed. He made a bunch of symbols form above his head. The other guardians nodded along, apparently they've come to understand the sandmans way of communicating. Adria however was not so lucky. Noticing the girls distress Tooth translated, "Sandy was just saying that he agrees with what you said before. Children should not see us. We would rather they believe in faith than by seeing. Because as we all no seeing isn't believing. Believing should be seeing."
"Ok great", Adria said a little too enthusiastically.
Suddenly the door swung open. "Dede! Dede!"
Nina sighed. "Sorry Dri she just ran in. She's been wanting too see her favourite older cousin all day." She rolled her eyes.
Adria smiled, "no it's okay."
The three year old ran and bumped into Adria's legs and then wrapped her small arms around them.
The brunette laughed, "how ya been Marie?"
The little girl let go and held two thumbs up. Then she looked behind Adria and pointed on her bed
" Dollies!", she squealed and grabbed Jack in a death grip.
Adria's eyes went wide.
"Dri I thought I told you too put those action figures away." Nina walked in between her sister and cousin and knelt down to the little girls eye level. While her sister talked too her cousin, Adria looked at the guardians with worry. She lipped 'just go with it'. They seemed to understand as they stood completely still. If she didn't know otherwise she would even think they were inanimate objects.
Nina got up and handed Jack over to Adria. " Now put them away." Adria gently placed Jack back on her bed.
"But Nia I wanna play with em", Marie complained, her hands in fists by her sides.
"Maybe another time sweetie. Lets go make cookies now. Sound like fun?" Forgetting her pout, Marie nodded excitedly, her pigtails bouncing up and down.
Nina laughed and took her hand heading out the door, " Adria can you walk to the store and pick up some flour?"
"Ya-ya sure."
"Ok ill get everything prepared, Marie why don't you watch t.v while we wait for Dri to come back."
Marie smiled innocently, " ok."
Once they both left the room, Adria looked at the guardians who now began to move again.
Jack was gasping for air, "Man that girl has some grip!"
Tooth was patting his back; as Bunny laughed at his expense.
"Action doll is good cover no?"
Adria gave a small laugh, " uh it's action figure North. But ya I do think its a great way to hide who you really are. Well anyway I should run to the store. Ill be back in about forty minutes, don't do anything reckless."
Jacks POV
About five minutes had passed since Adria had left, the guardians decided to listen to her warning and simply stayed on top of the bed, out of trouble. Well that was until the door opened once again and they all fell on the bed and became as still as possible.
Little hands grabbed the top of the bed and struggled to pull up. Eventually Marie made her way atop though and spotted the guardians. She smiled happily. And picked up Jack.
'Why me again?', he thought.
"If Dede plays with these they must be fun", the girl said to no one in particular.
She spotted Tooth and Bunny and squealed, "pretty fairy! And a bunny wabbit!"She placed Jack in the pocket on her pink striped dress and picked up the other two guardians.
She considered something then nodded to herself, "Dede always said what's hers is mine, so ill just borrow these for a few days", she held bunny up to eye level and smiled, " I promise to bring you wite back mr wabbit."
She looked down at Sandy and North. She shook her head, " those don't look like any fun."
Ding Dong Ding
"Marie, time to go, you're parents came early. Well make cookies some other time", Nina yelled after opening the door.
"Okay!" Marie yelled back and ran down the stairs.
Jack kept bouncing around in her pocket as she ran. 'This isn't good', he thought. Realizing he wouldn't be seen anyway Jack took a peak out of the pocket and looked down. He gulped, it would be a long and hard fall without the wind to cushion the landing.
"Here mister bunny. You and the fairy can stay in here."
Jack watched as the three year old placed Tooth and Bunny into the smallest pocket in her purple flower print backpack and then zipped it close. Jack both laughed at and felt sorry for the two. That was one tight fit.
"Marie hurry up, mommy needs to make a hair appointment!"
"Coming mommy", Marie yelled back as she pulled her backpack on and ran once again to the front of the house causing Jack to lose his balance and fall back into the pocket.
"Please MIM let Adria find us soon", Jack begged quietly, as what he assumed was going to be some rather unpleasant experiences awaiting him.
oh and the fun begins! Thanks to chichi123 for this idea! I changed it a bit since I never mentioned Adria having a younger sibling before so I have her a cousin instead XD but trust me when I say what's to come will be hilarious! Thanks for all the ideas keep em coming, I want to try and work all of these in somehow!
