The group all scream as they slide down the tunnel at a fast pace, their hair whipping wildly due to the speed. Bunny watches his friends in amusement, his ears peeking up at the sounds of their screaming.

Jack hollers and hoots as he enjoys the rush of adrenaline, his blue eyes squinting with happiness. His laughter is cut short as a body slams into his, his wide smile falling in shock as (Y/N) wraps her arms around his waist, her face buried into his neck as they continue to slide.

The white haired boy watches his friend fondly, softly chuckling before wrapping an arm around her and continuing to scream with enjoyment.

A few seconds pass before the group finally come to an end, Bunny, Tooth and Jack having landed gracefully while the rest lay in a pile, their heads fuzzy as they try to calm their breathing down.

" 'Buckle up', is very funny."

(Y/N) lays on her back, her coat having fallen off her shoulders and clumsily draped across her arms. She breaths deep, her hair a wild mess as she shuts her eyes tightly to stop the dizziness.

"Hey there gorgeous."

She opens her eyes slightly, her lips quirking up as she sets her eyes on Jack, his figure hunched over and elbows on his knees as he observes his friend. He chuckles as she rolls her eyes at him before offering a hand, which she gratefully takes.

He pulls her up, stumbling a bit as she trips into his embrace, the height difference making it a bit hard to keep her upright. A moment passes before she stables herself, bringing a hand up, she pats Jacks head a few times with a small smile before turning to her friends.

"Welcome, to the Warren!" Bunny introduces his friends happily, gesturing around with a proud smile at his home. Large stone statues lay in the ground, egg shaped and covered in moss. The place was beautiful, that was certain, but it was quiet, very quiet.

Bunny looks around, his ears peeking up as he sniffs the air, recoiling as an unfamiliar smell invades his senses.

(Y/N) looks around, taking in her friends expression, she listens closely, her brows furrowing as she hears the fumbling of tiny feet.

"Somethings up.."

A few of Bunny's eggs run of one of the tunnels, clearly frightened by whatever was chasing them. A tiny scream could be heard from inside, growing more and more louder as the group all stare ahead.

The statues spring to life, their faces changing into scowls as they all bring their weapons out, hard glares set on their faces.

The screaming grows nearer, causing the group to suddenly charge, all except (Y/N).

She watches, amused, as her friends let out fierce war cries as they continue to run towards the sound, only to halt dead in their tracks as they come face to face with the invader.

"..Sophie?"

(Y/N) barks out a laugh as her friends all stare at the small girl, a few eggs collected in her arms as she stared up at the quite uniquely looking people infront of her.

They all quickly hide their weapons, wide smiles on their faces as the greet the small girl.

"Elf, elf, elf!" Sophie yells, disregarding the group as she starts to happily chase the retreating elves, the small creatures trying desperately to avoid the child.

"What is she doing here?!" Bunny demands, his voice panicked as he looks at North.

"Uh..snowglobe..." the man trails off, patting his jacket and freezing sheepishly when he doesn't feel it.

"Crikey! Somebody do somethin'!" Bunny yells, his voice panicked as he looks to his friends. (Y/N) laughs, coming up and petting the panicked rabbit assuringly.

"Don't you worry, honey." She soothes, the rabbits face dropping into a pout as she rubs his ears. Jack watches with amusement, biting back a laugh as Bunny turns to him with a glare.

"Don't look at us, we're invisible, remember?" Jack reminds his friend, stroking over and setting a comfortable hand against (Y/N)' waist, pulling her against him with a smile.

Sophie giggles as she drags an elf around by his hat, the poor creature jingling and calling for help.

"Don't worry, Bunny!" Tooth grins, fluttering around Sophie and posing. "I bet she's a fairy fan! It's okay, little one." She greets, a warm smile on her face.

"Pretty!" Sophie gasps with a smile.

"Aw!" Tooth coos, grinning.'"You know what?
I've got something for you! Here it is!"

She reveals a handful of human teeth, causing her friends to all back away in disgust as she shows them off to the girl.

"Look at all the pretty teeth! With little blood and gum on them!"

Sophie looks between the teeth and Tooth, her eyes wide as she begins to wail, loudly. She sprints away from the fairy, running around frantically as she continues to sob.

Jack lets out a laugh, shaking his head as he watches Sophie. "Blood and gums?"

"Maybe five the kid a coin next time?" (Y/N) suggests with a laugh, patting Tooth's arm comfortingly as the fairy backs away with a pout.

North shrugs at Tooth as Jack and (Y/N)
follow Sophie. "When was the last time you guys actually hung out with kids?" Jack questions as he sits on the head of a statue.

(Y/N) smiles as Sophie herds the little eggs inside of the statue, giggling as she yells at the eggs.

"Peek-a-boo!"

Jack chuckles with a grin, fondly watching her chase the eggs as (Y/N) waddles after the little girl, watching her play with a fond smile.

"We are very busy bringing joy to children!"
North replies as Bunny ushers his eggs behind him. "We don't have time.." He pauses as Sophie runs past him, giggling happily. "..for children!"

Sophie giggles as she plays with butterflies,
(Y/N) smiling as one flies closer to her, causing her to gently blow the butterfly towards the girl.

Sophie giggles as several butterflies land on her face, causing her to sneeze loudly, making them disperse, before she continues to play.

"If one little kid can ruin Easter..." Jack starts, winking at (Y/N) when she notices him forming a small snowflake. "Then we're in worse shape than I thought."

Sophie giggles as she runs past the snowflake,
(Y/N) moving out of the way as it floats and hits Bunnymund on his nose.

He blinks slowly, his brows pulling up as he begins to slowly smile, his whole face relaxing.

...

Sophie stares intently at a flower, Bunny joining her as the flower blooms and reveals an egg. It grows legs, jumping around quickly and joining the others.

"You want to paint some eggs? Yeah?" Bunny encourages, making Sophie giggle and clap happily.

"Come on." He smiles, leading her happily.

...

Thousands of eggs traveled along a path, ready to be painted and hidden for Easter.

(Y/N) looks around with wide eyes and a grin, laughing as she folds her arms. Jack grins as he balances on his staff next to her, looking at the eggs fondly.

"Rimsky-Korsakov!" North laughs, joining the two as he looks down. "That's a lot of eggs!"

"Uh, how much time do we have?" Jack jokes to (Y/N), making her nervously grin with a shrug as she watches.

...

The eggs rush underneath blue flowers hanging from vines. Bunny laughs and hops quickly past them as Sophie exclaims happily, enjoying her time with the large rabbit.

The flowers move up and down, dust falling and decorating the eggs as they waddle past, giving them beautiful designs.

"All right, troops! It's time to push back. That means eggs everywhere!"

Tooth flies overhead with a giggle, diving down as she looks over them.

...

North hops along some stones, looking around with a grin.

"Heaps of you in every high-rise, farmhouse, and trailer park!" Bunny continues, ordering his eggs.Sophie giggles as she was carried by eggs, North waving with a smile as she passes underneath him.

"In tennis shoes and cereal bowls. Oh, there'll be bathtubs filled with my beautiful googies!"

...

Baby Tooth flies around, diving and flying besides an elf. He pushes an egg in, mockingly dancing as he sticks his tongue out.

He lightly gasps and jingles as thousands of eggs push him into the lake of paint, Baby Tooth squeaking a giggle.

North reaches in and pulls out an egg, watching the legs flail around. "Okay, that's a little strange," North mumbles with raised brows and a head nod.

"Nah, mate," Bunny replies, making North look over. "That's adorable.." Eggs snuggle against Bunny, butterflies flying around him as he smiles.

North shrugs and sets down the egg as his elf climbs out of the river covered in paint. He sticks his tongue out, grinning and bouncing when he sees it painted.

"There will be springtime on every continent!" Bunny laughs as he looks around.

"And I'm bringing hope with me!"

...

The eggs descend from the vines, carefully lowered as they follow the path with the others.

A Yeti watched in fascination, double-taking as an elf slips through the vines.

...

(Y/N) stands next to a Yeti, admiring his work as he continues to paint some eggs a beautiful red.

"Too Christmas-y, mate. Paint 'em blue," Bunny quickly comments as he hops by, the Yeti pausing as he takes in his words.

(Y/N) cringes as the Yeti yells, angrily slamming his fists on the ground in defeat as he looks at his dozens of eggs painted red.

...

Jack watches with a grin as he balances on his staff, (Y/N) carefully walking to his side with a small smile.

The two sit in a comfortable silence, no longer feeling tense around eachother as the spoke about their feelings. It felt like old times.

Jack hops off his staff, gently coming up behind his friend, he wraps his arms around her middle, setting his chin against her shoulder as he rocks them both gently, humming as (Y/N) grabs his hands and brings his fingers to her lips.

"Your hands are freezing.." she mumbles, bringing his digits up and setting small kisses against them, ending them at his knuckles and continuing to the next hand.

Jack dosent say anything, he merrily hums before bringing his head up and planting a firm, yet gentle kiss against her neck, causing (Y/N) to giggle at the feeling.

"..then warm them up for me, okay?"

...

"Oh, what's over there?" Bunny questions jokingly as Sophie gasps, rushing to catch an egg.

His ears perk up as she giggles, grabbing it and bringing it and showing it off to him.

"Oh, that's a beauty!" Bunny laughs, looking at the egg with a nod before he takes her hand.

"Now, all we gotta do is get him and his little mates through the tunnels to the top...and we'll have ourselves Easter."

...

Jack looks at (Y/N) as she nods, taking his hand and leading him to Bunny. He sighs softly as he squats next to him, (Y/N) smiling as she stands off to the side.

"Not bad," Jack chuckles as Bunny cradles
Sophie.

"Not bad yourself," Bunny jokes in a quiet voice, watching Sophie with a smile. He looks at Jack with a nod, making him grin back and look at (Y/N). She gestures to Bunny with her eyes, smiling.

Jack clears his throat, looking back at Bunny.

"Look, I'm sorry about the whole...you know, kangaroo thing," Jack apologizes, sighing as he looks down.

"It's the accent, isn't it?" Bunny jokes, making Jack laugh as (Y/N) and the others join them.

"Ready for Easter Bunny?" She smiles, Bunny nodding to her before looking down.

"You know.." the rabbit speaks up, causing
(Y/N) to tilt her head as he looks up at her.

"Sharing a holiday with you hasent been so bad, I suppose.."

(Y/N) laughs loudly, crouching down as she admires her friend, "That's so sweet!!" She gushes, her hands brightening up with a pink hue. Jack looks to her hands fondly, grabbing one and playing with it as Bunny chuckles bashfully.

He sighs loudly, nudging his shoulder with
(Y/N)'s as he looks down at Sophie. "Oh, poor little ankle-biter. Look at her. All tuckered out," he softly smiles as Tooth kneels by his side.

"I love her!" Tooth coos as Sophie yawns. "I think it's time to get her home."

"How about I take her home?" Jack rises, making me look at him in concern.

"Jack, Pitch is-"

"No match for this," Jack interrupts with a grin, gesturing to his staff proudly.

"Which is why we need you here. With us,"
Bunny replies, looking around as North nods. (Y/N) nods, a frown set on her face.

"Jack, I have to stay here to prepare for Easter, I don't feel comfortable leaving you.." she sighs, fiddling with her fingers nervously.

Jack sighs at his friend, gently bringing an arm up, he caresses her cheek gently before leaving forward and planting a gentle kiss against her forehead, earning a small chuckle from (Y/N).

He pulls away, a large grin on his face as he looks at his friends.

"Trust me, I'll be quick as a bunny!"
