My Demonic Beauty (10)

Jack Frost

"J-jack?"

I weakly lift my head up. My eyes widen. She's here. She found us.

I sit up and Rapunzel moves away. "Willow."

She laughs and runs over. She helps me up and we embrace. I can hear her crying. I pull away and smile at her, using my thumb to wipe away her tears. "Why are you crying?"

She smiles and buries her head in my neck. "I missed you. I-I didn't think I'd see you again."

I shake my head and wrap my arms around her again. She clings to me like she never wants to let go. And personally, I don't want to. I inhale her smell, strawberries, and sigh in happiness. I've missed her, I really have.

When we let go, she nods her head over to Rapunzel. "I see you got her."

I turn to look at Rapunzel, who looks at her hands. I feel the corners of mouth turn up, but I quickly put them done. She almost killed me, but I won't tell Willow. I'll talk with Rapunzel later.

If there is a later.

I nod my head and kneel down to Rapunzel, who looks up at me with fear edged in her soft green eyes. I can see the remaining tears on her cheeks drying up. I have an urge to wipe them away, pull her into a hug, and kiss her to make her stop, to see her warm smile again. I shake the feeling and hold out my hand to her. I don't show any emotion. Rapunzel slips her hand into mine and I pull her up.

"She'll go quietly," I say to Willow. Rapunzel looks at me like a kid. The fear in her eyes grow, but I squeeze her hand in reassurance. "But she stays with me. I'm the only one she trusts."

I turn to look at Willow. She looks slightly confused, but nods. Willow pulls a whistle from her bag and blows it. A few seconds later, Zion and Dylan emerge from the trees. Once they see me, they start to grin.

"Ah, Jack's back!" Dylan says and slams a hand on my back.

"And he isn't dead. Good job, kid," Zion adds in, slamming another hand into my back. I grumble and glare at them, Willow rolling her eyes at us.

"C'mon boys, time to head back to camp."

Suddenly, Zion cuffs Rapunzel, who pulls away from him. She slams her foot onto his and bites his hand when he nears her. I stifle a laugh.

"The little bit-"

"Zion!"

"Sorry Willow, but she bit me!"

Willow looks at me. "I thought you said she would go quietly."

I glare at Rapunzel, who glares at me back. "I did."

They finally get the cuffs on her and I follow Willow to base, where ever it is. I ask Willow what happened to Daloon. At first, she doesn't want to tell me, but I weasel it out of her. She says that they were waiting for me when Pitch's men stormed the city. They knew exactly where their hideout was, and they lost alot of men. While fighting, someone set a house on fire, and the fire spread.

How did they know where their base was? I don't say anything, but there has to be a spy among us. Dylan and Zion are too stupid to do anything, Willow is Loyal... is it Amon? It would make sense, since he knew exactly where Rapunzel's room was, and where everything was located. But, he's the one leading this army... why would he?

I shrug it off. Whatever happens next, I'll be sure to keep a close eye on him.

We reach the base, an abandoned church. It looks run down and near breaking, but Willow goes inside anyway. I follow her. Inside is what's left of out recruits, which is a small number compared to before. I see some treating wounds, others eating, other sleeping, all tired and drained. I stare sadly at them and follow Willow to where Amon rests.
