Snowbunny Shadow chapter 1.

                                           Snowbunnies and shadows

The icy wind roamed through the big icy landscape. Jack was using this oppurtunity to have some fun while waiting for the other guardians to be done with their tasks. He sucked up some air and cooled it down in his mouth before he unleashed it. A stream of icy wind pierced the chill air. A big grin spread all over his face, he couldn't wait to show the others.
After a few hours of boredom North finally came back. Jack flew as fast as he could to greet him.
"Ah, hello Jack!" North smiled at the younger guardian. "What have my favourite winter spirit been up to all day?" North had grown to see Jack as his son and was always curious and interested in what Jack was up to when he was not around.
"Well you know" Jack shrugged. "Just the usual". "Bothering Phil and making snowdays for the kids" He smirked. "I also mastered this new trick I've been practicing on!" He inhaled some air and prepared to blow it out. Just as he blew out Bunnymund appeared out of his hole right in front of him sending him flying right into a wall.
"Woops" Jack couldn't help but chuckle a bit at the sight.
"Bunny, are you okay?" North hurried over to bunnymund who had gotten on his feet. "What on bloody earth was that!" He spat out in his usual grumpy tone. He turned his head only to look into a pair of mischievous icy blue eyes. "I bet that lil ankle biter have something to do with this" He dragged out his boomerang as he walked towards Jack.
"Hello there kangaroo." Jack smirked. "Did you enjoy my little performance?"
"Don't try to be funny you lil dingo!" Bunnymund's voice was still a bit scrambed after his flying trip.
"I bet you planned all of this long before I came!" His voice sounding more like shouting now.
"Calm down bunny" North placed his big palm on bunnymund's shoulder
"Is not Jack's fault. It all happened by accident ,just a small mistake" He smiled towards the still angry bunny.
"Fine!" He shrugged off North's hand. "But if that bugger ever does that again there won't be any mercy". He took off towards the dining room where Sandy was waiting.
Jack shook his head and helped North clean up the mess.
"I don't get it!" Jack sad out loud. "Why can't he just try and have some fun for once ?" North sighed. " I do not think he means to sound angry" He patted Jack on his shoulder. "Is just a very long time since he last had any fun and doesn't quite  know how to react"
Jack stared at him with doubtfull eyes. Could that really be the reason for Bunny's lack of humor or ability to have fun ?He shook his head and floated towards the dining room, leaving the big man alone.

Sandy and Bunnymund already sat there and was having something that looked like a discussion, though Bunny of course was the only one who spoke while a dozen of golden sand symbols appeared over Sandy's head. The scenario made Jack chuckle a bit before he sat down next to Bunny. Bunny looked at him a bit surprised, but kept focusing on what Sandy tried to tell him.

The door sprung up and in came a lively fairy. "Tooth!" North held out his arms and welcomed her. "So glad you could make it, all the others are waiting in the dining room" He pointed in the direction of the dining room. "Oh thank you North, and I'm so sorry that I'm late. I know I said I would be here one hour ago, but as I flew, I came across a child who just had lost his first molar in Norway and I just had to take it!" She took a break to breath before she continued. "But I brought something to drink to make up for it" She said giving North a bottle. " Oh Tooth you shouldn't have" He looked at the bottle and read Chocolate Red Wine in big golden letters. "How did you get hands on such fine liquor ?" Tooth giggled a bit. "Well you know us fairies, we always find a way to use our charm in our favour" she fluttered around a bit "Well let us not waste anymore time here, the others are waiting for us" She eagerly pushed North a bit to make him walk.
"Tooth!" Jack flew up and gave her a hug. He had grow to be a fan of her as she acted more or less like a big sister for him that he could trust.       "I was worried that you wouldn't show up!" She ruffled his white hair
"Oh Jack I'd never miss out on one of North's parties" she flew over to Sandy and gave him a big hug before she stuck her fingers in his mouth to check on his teeth.
"Ah! Finally we can begin!" North's voice boomed through the room as he held up some bottles. He was followed by some yetis that carried huge amounts of boxes containing liquor.
"I assembled you all here to day to selebrate a very special incident that happened here one year ago." The other guardians looked at eachother a bit puzzled before North continued. "Today is one year since Man in moon chose Jack to become our fellow guardian!" Jack felt his cheeks getting hotter. Had a year already passed ? "And I belive that it is in our place to celebrate that?" He stared at Jack who just stared back with a smile on his face.
"Well what are we waiting for, let's begin the party!" Tooth had already gotten a hold on a bottle and fluttered merrily around as she gulped the red liquid down.
"I belive this was ment for you" North gave Jack the bottle of Chocolate wine. "Oh thanks, but I don't drink" He said shyly as he was about to give the bottle back. "Nonesence boy! When it's party everybody drink!" He grabbed the bottle, opened it and poured the liquid into a big glass. The liquid was colored redish brown and smelt not surprisingly like chocolate. Jack hesitated a bit before he took  a gulp. The taste was bitter but it quickly got covered up by the sweet and tender taste of chocolate. With no further toughts he drank all of it at once. He sat the glass on the table as he panted a bit before he turned grabbed the bottled from North and began to drink the rest of it. North burst out in laughter and filled up a cup with hot chocolate mixed with jägermeister.
Bunnymund took no interest in the beverage and amused himself by looking at the other guardians who had consumed a bit more than they could handle.
Jack flew around and froze random elves, Tooth was fast asleep and curled up in a chair while she sucked a bit on a bottle, Sandy was making numberous of random dream sand figures as he was laughing silently, and North had taken the oppurtunity to gab about all the fights he had attended as young and how he had gotten his tatoos.
After a few hours the party had finally silenced. North was mumbeling some random gibberish. Tooth's fairies had come to pick her and Sandy up as they both needed to be fully rested for their daily duties. Jack slept silently on the couch, if it wasn't for the fact that he moved around sometimes one could belive he was dead.
Bunny looked down at the younger spirit. He reached out his paw and slowly ran his fingers though his white hair. He stood like that for a moment watching the snow white boy as he slept. "What on earth am I doing?!" Bunnymund shook his head as he headed for the kitchen to get a glass of cold water.
As he left the room a sinister shadow appeared. "Well, well, well" Pitch stepped out of the shadows. "If it isn't my favourite guardian"  he smirked as he reached out to the boy's face tracing his jawline.
"Such a delightful sight, all defenceless and no ones s here to save you" He grabbed the boy and lifted him up.
The sound of glass shattering mad Pitch almost drop the boy as he quickly turned around. "What the bloody hell?!" Bunnymund wasted no time and leapt towards the tall man. Pitch reacted immediately and within seconds he and Jack sank down into the shadows. "Oh no you don't!" Bunnymund quickly tried to grab anything that he could in front of him and got a hold of Pitch's hair until the darkness devoured them.
