Santa Claus was in his office, when one of his elves came in pointing outside his office. The man was confused but stood up. The elf backed away quickly but tripped backward on his feet in surprise. Why shouldn't he? It was always a surprise to see North's enormous height. Wavering at 6' 2", having tattoos on his right and left arm with the words "naughty" and "nice" on them, he was, in a way, scary. As he brushed the cookie crumbs off of his round belly, he walked through the door. What he saw next left him with his mouth open.

On the globe which showed the lights of every child that believed in him and his of fellow guardians was darkness. Complete darkness. Then the globe split from north to south into four parts. Each one a different color. The topmost one was pink and purple, descending downwards was a green and yellow color, then a red-orange color, and finally, blue and white in the south.

"What does this mean Manny?" North wonders aloud.

All he knew was that the guardians will have to come together again. So he turns and pushes a handle under the globe that sends light (humans know it as the Northern Lights/Aurora) to alert all the Guardians, still pondering on the globe.

Jack Frost was at the South Pole when he saw the lights. He was busy building his palace. Now that he was a Guardian, more specifically the Guardian of Fun, he and the other Guardians figured he needed a place to stay rather than just wander about. He could use this castle to see where snow was needed. Or if someone needed fun. It also had a globe that was dotted with lights of children that believed in him. All Guardians had a globe like this. Although the palace was already built, he still had to put furniture inside of it. Lest he want simply a palace made of ice and snow inside and out. He was taking a short break when he looks at the sky to see the lights.

A growl escapes his throat as he thinks how it has only been a few months since Pitch has last attacked. What could it be now? Although he would like to continue building his castle, he knew it had to wait.

So picking up his staff, he flew inside the palace and half-flying and half- running, went up the stairs to the vault. He tapped a few certain spots to open the door and walked inside.

Inside the completely blue vault with temperatures cold enough to kill a human being, were a couple of snowglobes, some easter eggs, and his memory box which held all of his memories from before the was a Guardian. Ignoring the cold, he takes a snowglobe saying

"Santa's workshop," and dashes the globe to the ground.

A portal appears and he steps inside of it ready to take him to the North Pole. Waiting to see what North had called him about.

The Tooth Fairy.

Half-human, and half-hummingbird.

What many people believe about her is that she goes around every night and w teeth from the children that hide them under the pillow after it falls out. In return, she leaves a quarter. That is where the legend ends.

Most people don't know that for the past 4 centuries, she hasn't collected teeth herself. She has little fairies to do it for her.

What does she do with the teeth exactly?

She keeps them.

They hold memories, so when someone needs to remember something, she or one of the Baby Teeth help them using the teeth they collect.

This is why she is called the Guardian of Memories.

Normally, she is very busy. Running around telling each of her lieutenants in charge of the thousands of little tiny fairies what to do. One of the fairies job is very specific and very easy.

Look out for the Northern lights.

When they reach her palace of pale pink, the Baby Tooth immediately goes to alert the Tooth Fairy.

"Sector 5 row 17 number 3 is in desperate need for a memory recovery…." things like that can be heard from the Tooth Fairy.

Also things like…..

"Her first tooth? Look at it! She flossed!"

As Baby Tooth comes up to her trying to get her attention, the Tooth Fairy looks like a blur. With her blue and green colored feathers on her body spinning around, Baby Tooth found it hard to get her attention. After a few minutes of not getting noticed despite all of the arm waving and shouting that she did, the Tooth Fairy still would not pay attention. Getting fed up, Baby Tooth plunged her sharp beak into Tooth's soft feathered arm. Not all the way of course, but enough to get a sharp prick of pain for someone. As Tooth looked for the offender, she found Baby Tooth pointing at the sky.

She looked up to see the Northern Lights glowing across the sky.

"What could North possibly want?" she wondered. Taking Baby Tooth with her, she spread her wings to their full length and flew toward the source of the lights. Wondering what was going on.

Easter.

So far away on the calendar.

Yet there were always preparations to be done.

Especially since last April when Pitch destroyed all of the eggs, Bunny had decided to keep a couple extra hundred for emergencies.

The Easter Bunny as he is known to children. Every year before Easter, he hides eggs for children to find. This year was the worst. Even worse than the blizzard of 1968 that Jack Frost purposefully made. Because this time, no one got their eggs.

Bunny's hand clenched into a fist with an angry expression on his face vowing that it will never happen again. He decided to go outside to clear his thoughts. Climbing up the stairs to the roof (that was open), he almost fell down from surprise. The northern lights were shining again!

Grabbing ahold of himself, he reached the top of the warren and tapped the ground twice with his foot. A hole appeared underneath with a path all set to go to the North pole. When he was inside the tunnel, the hole closed up leaving nothing but a purple flower.

Sandy was in his golden castle made up of dreamsand.

Whenever he had spare time, he would keep his energy in a big dream cloud so that he would not always have to be giving dreams out. This cloud was full of energy and could give out dreams enough for one night.

As he was finding the right one to release this night, he glanced upon the moon to see the northern lights. Sighing to himself, he took out the biggest dreamsand cloud and let it free.

He then created an airplane from dreamsand and flew off into the night to the North Pole. Fearing that Pitch had returned again.

Back at the pole, Jack was the first one to arrive. The portal opened with the mischievous Frost coming out of the portal. Although it had been 5 months since North had last seen the boy, he hadn't changed much. His blue eyes were especially ice blue and if North concentrated, he could see a blue aura around Jack.

Other than that, Jack hadn't changed at all. He was still wearing a blue hoodie with white ice strands around his shoulders. The same brown jeans that were tattered mid-way around his calves. And he still refused to wear shoes…..typical.

Rolling his eyes to himself, he watched as Jack walked towards the globe using his staff to balance a plate of cookies that and 2 elves were carrying. The surprised elves looked up to see Jack taking a cookie off of the plate and setting the plate aside on a shelf that is way too high up for the 5 inch elves to reach. Smirking, Jack finishes the cookie and wiped the crumbs of his face.

"You called?" he said in his "I'm -annoyed-but-I'm-still-going-to-act-like-I-own-the-place" voice. Looking at him, North saw a hint of a grin on his face.

Then, a hole opened up in between North and Jack. Out popped the Easter Bunny.

"Did I beat Jack?" Bunny asked in his thick Australian accent.

North gave a smile and nodded behind Bunny to where Jack was, grinning mischievously.

"Looks like Bunny needs to learn how to travel faster." he said. Smirking all the while.

Bunny was about to retort when Tooth came fluttering in a window with Baby Tooth right beside her.

"What's the problem North? Is it Pitch? Is it something worse? Is it the children? Is it their teeth?!" She frantically asked, zipping around to the 3 other Guardians present.

"Tooth," North stated in his heavy Russian accent.

"Is it Manny? Has he chosen another Guardian? But that's impossible! He just chose Jack!" She continued.

"Tooth calm down! It can't be anything that bad!" Yelled an exasperated Bunny.

"For once I agree with the Kangaroo, we just defeated Pitch in April, nothing bad could have happened already," piped Jack.

"You don't know Pitch Jack, for all we know he could have had an army ready to attack."

"Ye really think that 5 months after we gave his black ass a big whooping he'd show his face here again Tooth?" Bunny retorted back.

Baby Tooth fluttered in front of Jack, happy to see him again.

"Hey Baby Tooth. How's life at the palace?" He asked.

She rolled her eyes at him and pointed at Tooth while making a cuckoo sign by her temples.

Chuckling, Jack waited for Sandy while watching Tooth and Bunny argue which was quite odd. Normally it was him and Bunny at each other's throat

Sandy came right then. Flying through the same window that was specifically for him and Tooth. His plane disappeared into gold dust and was absorbed by him.

"Sandy! You are here! Good! Good! Now we can start!" Boomed North which surprised all of them so much, it even stopped Bunny and Tooth's argument.

"You are here because of this!" He continued, pointing at the globe.

The globe turned dark once again. Tooth gasped at the absence of lights. It then continued to split in four. As the other Guardians watched in amazement at the scene unfolding, North heaved a sigh. It had done this 3 times since the elf had called him. When it was over, Jack was the first to recover.

"Sooooo it does that often? Or..." He asked.

"It has never done that before in all my time as a Guardian," replied North.

A question mark appeared on top of Sandy's head. Then a moon appeared in its place.

"I already tried. He is not answering."

"Well it wouldn't hurt to try again," Tooth said. Facing the clear roof, she looked up at the bright moon. "Manny, what does this mean? What do we do?" She asked.

This time, he replied. He shone a light down on a moon tile on the floor. When the moonlight hit the tile, a stand rose up carrying a blue crystal.

A collective gasp broke among them.

"It can't be. He just chose that blasted show pony!" Said the Australian accent.

"Gee thanks. I'm feeling so loved right now Bunny," Jack said. Every word thick with sarcasm.

Snarling at him, Bunny turned back to the crystal whispering to himself wishing it to not be...the Groundhog?

Rolling his eyes, Jack turned back to the crystal. There was a circle shape. It was...the sun?

"Uh...pretty sure the sun isn't a spirit like us," he stated.

"Hush Jack. Manny is telling us a story!" Whispered North.

It was true. It showed a drop falling from the sun onto Earth. Then the scene changed. It was a girl following a small blue light. She came close to it and was about to touch it when it disappeared...along with the scene.

Now it showed a boy reaching out to touch a dragon as black as the moonless night tentatively. The dragon accepted and patted its head towards the boys hand when the scene disappeared. Finally it was a boy around 18. He had moose antlers and was walking funnily. Jack thought the scene looked familiar, when the boy turned around. Jack gasped. It was him when he was human. Even though the boy had brown hair and eyes there was no mistaking that it was him. With the same pants and the habit of not wearing shoes. He knew it was him. The scene changed to when he died. Then it went to him when he was fighting Pitch after Sandy died. When he had shot ice and destroyed most of Pitch's army. Then the image stopped.

The crystal retreated back down to the tile as the moon stopped showing its light. All the Guardians were in shock. They started to ask Man in Moon what that was all about but he refused to answer.

When they realized that the Man in Moon would not answer, they all looked at Jack expectantly. Surprised Jack took a few steps backward. "I...uh...I don't know anything," he stated nervously.

Realizing how Jack must be feeling, Tooth quickly shook her head and fluttered up towards him, playing her usual mother-hen role.

"We know that Jack. It's just…interesting to see why Manny wasn't giving us a straight answer."

Instead of calming Jack down, her words had the opposite effect.

"So what, now I'm a Guardian, who is part of something that no one knows about because SOMEONE isn't telling us!" He shouted at the moon.

"Jack, Man in Moon has his reasons for doing what he does. If he wants to tell us, he will. But seeing as he isn't, he must know that one of us has the answer to this." North said.

Sandy made a question mark and a stick figure human over his head.

"That is good question Sandy. But I know one of here knows. I can feel it…...in my belly!" North said jiggling his potbelly in the process.

Rolling his eyes, Jack was about to make some smart-ass comment when Bunny interrupted.

"There...is a little Sheila….she has the healing powers of the sun….I think the first might have been her." he said slowly.

Speechless, Jack looked around at the other Guardians who were nodding their heads uncertainly, urging Bunny to go on. Sighing, Bunny started to explain.

"Once upon a time, a drop of sunlight fell from the heavens. It landed on Earth on the outskirts of a kingdom called Corona. The drop later blossomed into a flower which, when sung by a certain song, can make anything healed. A witch saw the flower and used it to keep herself young. But she would have to sing it regularly to remain that young. A flower like this could have been used for good, but no. The witch wanted it all for herself and kept it hidden. Centuries passed by and one night, the Queen of Corona fell deathly ill, pregnant. Wanting to save his wife and unborn child, he sent soldiers across the kingdom to find the magical flower. One of the soldiers found it and it was given to the queen. She survived, as did her child but the child's hair was gold. Late in the night, the witch came and sang the song, as her wrinkles vanished, she cut a strand of her hair. Imagine her surprise as it turned brown and the healing properties vanished! Seeing no other choice, the witch stole the child and hid her in a tower for 18 years…..without cutting her hair or letting her out of the tower. Eventually the child got curious and went outside the tower to see these lights that always came on her birthday. When she came back, she realized that she was the princess and the witch was furious. By then, the man who had taken her to see the lights had come. The witch, seeing as she was outnumbered, tried to stab the man, but the girl took it instead. As she died, her hair lost its healing abilities and the witch died as well I believe."

"So we need a dead girl...That's going to be easy." Jack said sarcastically.

Glaring at him, Bunny continued "As she was dying, the sun turned her into a spirit and gave her healing abilities back. Along with the ability of Spring."

"Hold on. Spring? The Sun?" Tooth asked.

"Whatever happens in spring, she does. That's how I know her. She helps me with Easter and tries to have good weather during Easter. And I don't know about the sun. That's all she told me." answering Tooth's question.

"So we have to find her to figure out more of this stuff, is what you're saying." Jack said. Bunny nodded. A heavy silence overcame them for a moment but North broke it soon.

"Any idea where she is? Or what her name is Bunny?" he asked.

"Right now, no. Spring has been over for a while now. I asked her where she stayed but she just said "Paradise". Her name is Zel," he stated after some pause.

Paradise…..

Why does that sound so familiar? Thought Sandy as he racked his brain for answers. Just as he was about to give up when Jack leaped up in surprise shouting "I know where that is!"

"Where?"

"You better not be playin' with us ya bloody showpony!"

"I will get sleigh!" came a chorus of answers and a question mark from Sandy. Taking a deep breath, he exhaled the word

"Netherlands."

Oh my gods. SOOOO LONG!

(Whaddup Percy Jackson Reference)

Anywho.

Ya like it?

Sorry, this story may seem really boring right now but I'm planning on having a trilogy.

I'd love reviews.

Especially constructive criticism :)

Just so I can make sure that I get reviews that I need I'll ask you...No...I'll interrogate you for feedback :D (Insert evil laugh here)

1) Too much describing or too little?

2) Did I characterize them right? (I probably didn't do it for Jack as well as the others)

3) Did I punctuate correctly? (Especially for the speaking parts….I suck at those)

4) Anything else?

I don't have good grammar so I'd appreciate if anyone pointed out BIG flaws in this chapter. (Note the use of the word BIG! Not the small commas or anything.)

If you review… YOU GETTA COOKIE :D

"I'm so hilarious…." I said sarcastically.

Peace people
