(song above dedicated to Jack Frost)
(track: "Expectations" by 2WEI)
It's only a split second that I notice this, before it's snuffed out by that empty evil that possesses him and he grips his staff that now glows, ready to smite me with frost sparks and end my life. But he can't do it. Something is making him stop.
Pitch is completely shocked and caught off guard by this. I can feel his anger getting stronger as he watches what is happening. The only thing stopping him from stepping in now is sheer disbelief and stubbornness to not let this plan fail.
Jack grits his teeth and regains his composure as he raises his weapon again with a battle cry of fury to—he suddenly grunts with pain and stumbles off his feet to his left, face screwed up in discomfort and strain. He clutches the snow as he tries to fight and screams out in anger, his form leaking a shadow as he is hunched over.
Pitch and I both seem to watch with wide eyes as Jack is in furious protest like he's battling an unwinnable fight in his head, straining with everything he has. I think begin to see his hands that turn a more pinkish than the grey they were and he screams again as the colorless mask is torn away from his body and transforms into a shadow above him, leaving behind slowly, the Jack Frost I know and love.
I am astonished but of course it makes sense that he could fight off the Fear when others can't. He's a Guardian.
The Fearling that the shadow is turning into claws at him to try and possess him again but he whirls around, slamming it to the ground as he holds it with his teeth grinding together and waves his hand to let a spike of ice shoot up from beneath it, tearing the body and staining the ice with black ink.
HICCUP:
"Come on! Do your worst!" I provoke the huge monstrosity as Toothless and I dive for it with determination, getting its attention again when I let another one of Toothless's blasts smite its backside. As we dodge his form and bank left, it lifts its head to look at me, the eyes that are left glaring as best it can. And when it does this, suddenly multiple dragons that were fighting others turn my direction and speed towards me with deadly intent.
I narrow my eyes and Toothless does a side roll, blasting one ahead of us with a shot through its mouth as the advance. I pull out Inferno and slice one through its side as it misses me by an inch, the fire burning through the black shadow like a river cuts stone.
That's when one of them collides with us, my body jolting at the sudden impact but Toothless roars in savagery as his claws scratch at the monster that is being equally ferocious. But as it tries to bite down at me I shove my sword into its mouth, the thing making a horrible choking sound as its body is burned up—
Another dragon's claws collide with me, plucking me from the saddle of my Night Fury and my whole world is flipped on its head, the claws getting through my armor as my chest is drawing blood now. But I grab the ankle of the dragon before it could drop me, the wings flapping upwards as it turns its neck down to try and bite my head off.
That's when a shot from Toothless blows its own head off its neck and the body disappeared into smoke, dropping me suddenly. But this time when I am grabbed its by my own dragon again, carrying me down so I can mount once more but my sword has gotten lost in the gruesome battlefield where our armies quarrel.
