Do You Believe? ~ Ten (Jack Frost x Reader)

Another scream echoed across the white snow, soon to be corrupted by darkness that seeped into its pure skin and polluted it, turning its glimmer and shine into a sea of ebony. Nightmares streamed across the snow, their hooves beating it savagely, sending clouds of snow into the air behind them as they stormed towards their target, saffron orbs set on the girl held in the arms of the newest Guardian, flying up towards the clouds.

"Frost..." A voice echoed through the fearlings, the distaste in its tone clear as night and day. The boy's involvement was not something the bringer of fear appreciated, and he would not forgive the winter spirit for taking away his weapon. The shadow King slammed his fist into a pillar of his lair, watching the preparation for the battle to come through the eyes of his fearlings.

"That boy always gets in my way. But not this time. Kill him." He ordered in a hushed whisper through gritted teeth, his eyes closed as he observed Jack Frost hold the weapon in his arms and attempt to fly to safety. "KILL HIM!"

The Nightmares took less than a second to obey the command and charged at the boy. The girl in his arms squealed and ducked as a hand of black sand clawed at the air her face had just recently occupied. Even through the chaos now erupting around them, Pitch Black could still hear the girl's whimpering.

"Don't get too comfortable under their care, my dear. You shan't be with them much longer…”

The voice echoed in your ears but you had no idea who it belonged to though it sounded familiar. You clung to Jack as the Nightmares charged at you both in mid-air. “J-JACK! FASTER!” You exclaimed, panic overwhelming you as you frantically looked around and discovered the horrifying truth.

You were surrounded.

“Jack…” You voice sank into a low whisper as Jack made a choice in that split second after catching a glimpse of red…and threw you up higher into the sky.  At first, you didn’t really understand what was happening, only that you suddenly felt cradled by the wind as it pushed you upwards. It was only when gravity gave a tug that a scream was thrown out if your lungs. But it didn’t last long as you landed with a hard thump on wood.

“What?” You questioned out loud, looking up to see North steering this beast of a sleigh across the sky, ploughing through the storm of Nightmares. A furry paw was held out to you and your gaze shifted over to the large rabbit bearing an apologetic grin.

“Sorry we’re so late, (y/n)” Bunnymund said, giving you a soft pat on the back after pulling you to your feet. You gave him a small grin about to thank him when his emerald eyes flicked downwards and widened. “Bloody hell…” He whispered in shock as you followed his gaze to see Jack lying in the snow, his staff still in his tight grip as he shakily got onto his hands and knees, unaware of the Nightmare about to trample on his head.

“JACK!” You screamed, rushing over to the side of the sleigh but Toothiana and Sandy were already on the case. The Tooth Fairy and an ever-increasing amount of fairies, charged at the Nightmare, beating it with strong hits, using their wings to slice through the other Nightmares. Meanwhile, Sandy formed a small airplane out of his golden sand, the sheen near blinding the Nightmares, his golden glow a complete contrast to their dark shadows. After pulling down the golden goggles on his forehead, he grinned and aimed at the Nightmares before----

Rallies of golden bullets filled the air, dispersing the Nightmares into explosions of ash, as fairies flitted about the air in groups, targeting Nightmares and destroying them swiftly and cleanly in a womanly fashion, dusting themselves down afterwards. You watched in awe as they fought, letting out a gasp as Bunny called to North, -yelling something about catching him- before he leaped from of the sleigh, throwing his boomerang at a huddle of Nightmares, his feet hitting another as he landed on its head. The sleigh had already swerved down, crashing through charging Nightmares. North released the reigns yelling to the reindeer to pilot the sleigh as he whipped two swords from his waist and sliced through a majority of the Nightmares that tried to take out the sleigh. Suddenly the sleigh jolted to the left as reindeer switched directions and SLAM! Bunny hit the floor of the sleigh in a crouched form before up righting himself and catching the boomerang he had thrown.

“Wow…” You mumbled, looking up at him in awe. Bunnymund looked back at you and grinned before he turned his head to the side, after glimpsing something out of the corner of his eye and groaned. “Oi, North! We have company! Seems Pitch’s decided to join the party.” He moaned, growing even more annoyed now. But you narrowed your eyes at the sight of the man cloaked in darkness riding a chariot pulled by five Nightmares, his scythe in the hand that wasn’t gripping the reins.

“My turn…” You mumbled to yourself before diving over to the back of the sleigh. Due to the rush and panic of getting the sleigh out to help, North hadn’t allowed the elves time to clear up the mess they’d left, which included a variety of toys and arts and crafts items. All the items you needed, after all…arts and crafts were your speciality.

“(y/n)! What the heck ya’ doin’?!” Bunnymund questioned after lobbing three eggs at the chariot that sailed past. You smirked as you ripped some tape from its holder, effectively sticking the chosen toy to your foot. You quick tapped a matching toy, only differing in colour, to your other bare foot as Pitch began to address the Guardians.

“My my, I hope you enjoyed the starter! If you didn’t like it, why not pay the bill now?” Pitch questioned, saffron eyes glinting dangerously before flaring when Jack replied from down below, blood dripping from a cut on his forehead.

“I think we’ll give the main course a try!” He called up, Pitch glaring down at Jack's grin, though the frost spirit was fuming inside, furious that Pitch was making (y/n) seem like an item. A tool. Jack wasn’t going to put up with that and flew up towards Pitch who was already waiting. His scythe swung down, giving one of Jack’s locks an uneven trim as the Guardian barely dodged the blade. “Moon Almighty…” Jack muttered, his eyes wide. He hadn’t expected the heavy weapon to have swung that fast, but it seemed the Nightmare King had been practicing.

Meanwhile, you had finished taping the ‘flying saucers’ to your feet. The toys were the ones that you had seen earlier that morning, and even though you had been unsure before, after spotting a Yeti nearly pulled off of the ground by just holding onto one of the toys, you were certain two of them could hold your weight.

“Hey, Tooth!” You yelled, standing up as Bunnymund glanced down at your feet with a confused expression. The Tooth Fairy looked up and flew over to you with a questioning look on her face. “Give Jack some back up! He’s riding it rough!” You ordered, a sudden strategic plan taking form in your head. Toothiana could see the gears turning and nodded before shooting up towards the battle above them, while North and his reindeer held off the Nightmares.  
“Bunny! You know how to work a remote control, right?” You questioned, offering him the one that was wirelessly linked to the saucer on your right foot. He nodded and accepted it, gathering your idea. “Okay, that’ll only move my right foot, but I should be able to lead the other one if you direct me with that.” You told him before gasping as warm fur was suddenly surrounding your face. Bunnymund had pulled you in a warm embrace, before quickly separating and patting you on the head gently.

“Go get ‘em, Sheila.” He grinned before flicking on the remote’s switch, as you leaned down and turned on the saucers.

“Will do, Bunny.” You replied with a smirk before calling over to North. “Hey, North! Can you spare a sword?” You inquired. An answer came quickly, as a sword was thrown to you a second later. You quickly snatched it’s handle, surprised by its lightness, and by the fact that you caught it properly without slicing off a finger.

“Good luck, (y/n)!”

You looked up to meet North’s grin with one of your own before nodding to Bunny. “Alright, let’s do this.” You told him. He nodded before pressing the ‘Start’ button. You eyes widened instantly as you felt your stomach roll.

“OH S@#*!”
