Thawing of Frost - Meeting Frost: The Easter Bunny

Author Note: Sorry for the lateness of the chapter. Mostly due to health issues revolving around my wrist tendons and the fact this was supposed to be Pitch's chapter but Mr. Boogeyman refuses to be written so Bunnymund got written instead.

Summary: Short series about the Guardians + Pitch Black first time meetings with the rather elusive Winter Spirit.

The Blizzard of '68 was the first time Bunnymund also known to humans as the Easter Bunny met Jack Frost. The hooded figure was smaller then he had expected and heard. Rumors had it the Winter King was seven to eight feet tall, wore a crown of ice upon his head, had the skulls of his victims strapped to his staff.

Aster noted none of these things were true as the seasonal spirit stood a few inches shorter than him from what he could guess at the current distance, much skinnier then he thought too with this thing legs sticking out beneath the knee length blue coat he wore.

His gaze moved upwards and then froze and the anger he had felt moments before spotting the other being returned fast and hot as he noticed one of his precious eggs held within one pale and longed fingered hand. He ignored how his googie's colors stood out against the pale background of skin and snow, because bugger it all it was Easter for Moon's sake! He did not have time for snow and ice hindering his hiding and hindering the kids going out to find his eggs.

"Put that down,mate! That ain't fer ya! That's fer th' lil' ankle-biters! Or they would be if there wasn't all this bloody snow about!"

The Pooka ground out, his ears flat against his skull and teeth bared. The hot anger that had coursed through his veins froze almost instantly as the ancient spirit tilted his head towards Bunny, his face was hidden within the shadows of the hood but that did not stop Bunny from feeling the hidden eyes gazing at him, through him and finding him lacking.

Bunnymund shut his mouth with an audible click still angry at the other spirit but the proverbial wind having been knocked out of his sails, he deflated a bit, looking disgruntled at the silent spirit instead.

He watched the spirit return attention to the egg in hand before crouching down and gently set it back among the small cluster of eggs. Bunnymund wasn't sure what he expected the other to do but he tensed when Jack Frost raised a hand near his face and held it out flat, taking a deep breath in and as he exhaled a small stream of blue and white snowflakes whirled around on the palm of his hand,within seconds a egg made from crystal like ice sat there shimmering in the daylight.

Aster would never admit it but he had been impressed and even from his distance he could make out the elegant fern like carvings on the ice-egg. The frost spirit placed it near his googies,standing up after he was done the Winter King gave the Pooka a faint nod as he raised his staff and got swept away as the wind hurled him skywards leaving the Easter Bunny al alone.

The Guardian of Hope hopped near the bundle of eggs to eagerly yet warily check out the ice-egg left behind,carefully lifting the replica in his paws Aster held the egg high, enjoying the way the light filtered through the clear ice and fracture through the carvings. Bunnymund gently placed the egg in one of the small pockets of his boomerang sling before tapping the earth with a paw.

He still had his holiday to attend to.
