A/N
Welp you wanted this continued so I had to freshen up the first chapter since I couldn't work with it so hope you enjoy also I am terrible with grammar so if you re-read this one day and things are added or subtracted I just grammar checked is all.
White noise filled his ears before sound eventually pierced through, leaving behind a dull ringing, the first sound he heard was the whistling of the wind, the rustle of leaves, and what could only be described as children laughing, for it was too innocent and loud to be anything else.
And then the sound of sharp squeaks and creaks made him think of a playground...maybe.
His hand twitched, pins and needles shot through the limb giving an odd tingling sensation, he groaned as feeling was returning to his body making aches and pains known. His eye's fluttered behind pale eyelids still too exhausted to open them yet.
Even closed he knew the sun was shining on him as he saw a red haze behind his eyelids, he felt the heat licking at his skin leaving a warm tingle in its wake, but after a while it started to burn. It showed he was more sensitive to heat than he thought.
Blue eyes flickered open before slamming shut at the harsh light that suddenly blinded him, a hiss escaping his lips and cold mist escaped his breath, his hand swung up to cover his eyes from the light and movement seemed to awaken a splitting headache.
He groaned sitting up slowly and ended up curling in on himself, he lifted his hand and lightly touched the side of his cranium then flinched from the pain emitting from the area.
He finally glanced up, giving his surroundings a once over half glaring at everything until his eyes got used to the light, his eyes furrowed into a frown when he recognized nothing.
it was an ordinary forest but nothing familiar in the least... there was nothing familiar about his clothes or even his reflection in the lake beside him, that's when his brows furrowed further.
What was his name?
A small sense of panic overcame him as he couldn't recall anything about himself, no memories…
His reflection showed his panic and he didn't like it. Instantly forcing himself to relax and at least try to get his bearings,
In his reflection he saw hallowed blue eyes and silver hair, his lips were pale he pressed a finger to his lips his eyes furrowed then glanced down to the dirt I crusted nails and the dry chapped skin and the small scars that litted his hands he glanced down and saw he was skinny abnormally thin, he patted his clothes in case he carried anything that had some clue to his identity.
He wore trousers tied in twine at the bottom, robes layered and black that felt too restricting
it made him look more like a skellington and less like a person, dismissing them as creepy and useless with no pockets to hold any information about himself, he stood to pull it off, he knew he wasn't cold and probably wouldn't need them anyway.
Until he stood to his full height and his foot brushed against something, he glanced down and saw a long wooden branch of some sort, a shepherd's crook maybe?
Forgetting his robes he picked up the staff and looked at it curiously, he liked it and deemed it acceptable to take it with him. But when it touched the ground frost spread like a fire and the boy cried out falling back from it then stilled at the sound of his own voice that too didn't sound familiar.
He heard lake ripple behind him and turned wondering why, when there was no wind? He soon saw something in the reflection and glanced upwards to the source seeing the moon, even though in daylight half of it showed, he tilted his head wondering if he should greet it or something, he settled with a wave before scowling at himself.
it was just a rock in the sky it's not like he could communicate with it!
"Jack Frost..." A voice called downwards it sounded old and wise, as gentle as the mountains but as harsh as the wind, the boy started his eyes widened in shock "W-what...?" He was stunned then came back to himself calling out in urgency "Wait you know who I am!?" he yelled to the moon that began to disappear behind the clouds, Jack shook his head in horror mouthing 'no.' before running forward nearly tripping over branches trying to keep up with the moon in the sky "Wait, where am I? what am I doing here!?" but it vanished and Jack fell back disappointed before glaring.
"Fine. I'll look myself." He gripped his new appointed staff and walked towards the bushes that concealed the park, he scratched at his neck feeling the black cloak was irritating at the skin, the fabric felt scratchy almost as if it were made of sand.
He parted the bushes and gaped, the park was huge, it had chess pieces the size of giants!
A topsy turvy checkerboard ground, with giant chess pieces the size of grown men.
A tower that had a long silver slide and rocking horses and even multiple bicycles running in circles, a huge compound of beams and logs overlapping haphazardly, that the children sat atop of, or walked across them like a tight rope.
It looked so dangerous…and fun.
Jack wasted no time he sprinted forward to join the fun he then noticed there was only a few piles of snow here and there, it might be the start of spring...
Jack laughed when children were climbing a rock wall and one fell over it, it only spurred them on. Jack flew forward playing with them finding the contraptions amusing and when children fell Jack called on the wind to cushion their fall a little, they couldn't keep playing if they got hurt, could they?
Soon one of girls and boys brought in a toy that had wings and when they pulled the string attached the toy with wings on their arms would spin really fast and fly in the sky, sort off the opposite of a helicopter leaves,
Jack laughed when he blew on one and it flew up a mile high.
Half the kids gaped in awe trying to make the toys fly even more higher "It's physically impossible for that to happen!" A boy with glasses called Monty cried out, but kept staring while his best friend had his tongue sticking out, taking his little sisters toy and giving it a whirl.
before pouting in disappointment when it didn't work "Give it up, Jamie." Caleb laughed at the pouting boy but Jack smirked leaning on his staff, with both his hands locked behind his head "Give it another go," he prompted and Jamie nodded placing the toy back in its holder to try again.
Jack frowned knowing the boy couldn't hear him or see him (he realised that, after a while) but for a moment there...he felt like they...well, as if he could be seen and was heard.
Jamie pulled the string as hard as he could and Jack whistled, wind responded and gathered it blew the toy higher into the sky while all children, Jack included, gazed up in wonder until the toy came down with a resounding smack on top of the disbelieving Montys head, Jamie and the others stared before they burst out laughing even Jack looked away clutching his sides.
Tears sprang to his eyes, he wiped away the mirth, still chuckling wanting to play another game until...
"What are you doing!?" Jack flinched from reflex before relaxing knowing he wasn't being addressed "Jack!" well that brought a frown they definitely weren't talking about him he knew that.
Until something grabbed his shoulder and spun him around violently and slammed him against the nature rock climbing wall, Jacks breath was knocked out of his chest panting heavily from being winded. Something touched him? His blue eyes bugged at the sight in front of him, He couldn't describe it, lilac coloured eyes narrowed in rage as the colours of teal blue and greens and slight pink, so much colour was pressed against him. A woman with a brown belt lay on her hips with a golden sword hung snug loosely around her feather clad waist, the feathers seemed to fold to her hands and fingers her crown flicked large feathers that curled around her human like face and the feathers bristled in adrenaline as her body twitched side to side in a beat.
"Hummingbird..." Jack breathed in awe he didn't know what that was, but the name came to mind and seemed to fit the strange hybrid, who only glared unamused "What?" He didn't know why she was angry with him, maybe he was in her territory?
He pressed himself back making himself seem smaller "I-I'm Jack Frost, and uh, I don't know if I've done something wrong but…Sorry?" he supplied but this only made her twitch, she looked confused but then suddenly pressed her sword to his throat and time seemed to stop.
The situation dropped on him like a ton of bricks, feeling afraid for his life he pressed further against the wall his eyes flickered everywhere for help but no one saw him and no one saw her either, instead he looked everywhere blindly trying to find a solution to escape.
Maybe he could freeze her hands and shock her, but what if he harmed her by accident?
Tooth stared when the boy started babbling nonsense almost panicking she tightened her grip and that sealed it he pressed himself back shutting his eyes tight and looked away "Alright get on with it." he gave up
That made her falter "Come again?" Jack peeked an eye open "um, this? whatever this is, for imposing on your land?" He was unsure now, did he read the situation wrong?
How could he? he had a sword at his throat and he was afraid to swallow in case he cut himself, the fairy only looked more enraged "Is this some sort of joke to you!?" Jack flinched but turned to face her fully "Trust me ma'm I find nothing funny in this situation at all." What did she want from him? Threatening him for no reason, this was some form of harassment and he knew it.
Her features soon looked startled "You're bleeding...?" Even Jack blinked, surprised "What now?" he looked down but saw nothing, instead her sword lowered and her other hand reached out when it pressed to his temple Jack winced harshly as his headache returned tenfold, he almost scolded until he saw crimson cover her fingers, even he brought his hand up and felt it "Oh, must of happened when I..." He trailed of, what was he doing before?
Did he fall? How could he, there was nothing to fall from, at least the hummingbird was away from him now, that was a plus.
But she was giving him such a peculiar look before sheathing her swords and tried to look less menacing. "Sorry, I thought you were someone else." Jack didn't believe her for a minute maybe he knew her, now that he thought about it he seemed to zero in on her person.
How she flew back and forth her feathers seemed to ruffle and twitch the colours were mostly of greens and blues with a hint of pink her violet eyes looked hardened as if she many horrors in her life that no one should see. But Jack knew if she smiled she would look younger...her face looked human but the rest of her looked like a hummingbird there were a few smaller ones the size of tiny fists flitted around her, looking just as distrusting as she did.
Distrust, why wouldn't she trust him? Well it seems they're not friends then what were they? but what if they were friends and they had a fight...?
Until she spoke her head tilting to the side
"You're pulling a weird face."
"I'm concentrating."
"...It looks painful." Jack barked out a laugh, surprised at the response. She seemed startled before relaxing and he realised there was potential to be friends maybe.
"Do you remember anything?" she asked and Jack shook his head "Nope." She raised an eyebrow looking suspicious but it was gone the next second "I'm Toothinia Fea." Jack switched his staff from one hand to the left he saw her tense but decided not to question it, "I'm Jack Frost." He beamed feeling elated for speaking his name to someone who could actually here him.
Here we'll take you home We need to go to home." She announced suddenly taking his hand and he froze to the spot not moving, afraid if he moved he would slip through her skin like the children, He couldn't pull back if he wanted to he only stared at her hand his breath stuttering "Home?" he asked did he have a home?
"Well I need to go, but I can't leave you alone especially with amnesia, it would be safer if you came with me." She answered Jack suddenly felt usure.
She did have a sword to his throat a minute ago...
Tooth gave a small smile "I think I can help with your memories." He perked up instantly "My memories?" She nodded "I'm the tooth Fairy and the Guardian of Memories if anyone can help you, it's me." Jack still looked doubtful and yet something told him to trust her even, though they just met, he looked behind him and saw the moon giving off it's light, almost urging him "Okay," He said to the moon and turning back around and froze when she was gone.
He felt the breath escape his lungs, was it all in his imagination? what if he's hallucinating "Jack!" He heard her voice and looked up to see her confused face he gave a soft sigh of relief before frowning "I can't fly." He called up to her swinging his staff through his fingers as he spoke.
She looked more confused "You do fly, I've seen it." Jack stared he could fly?
He could fly!?
He tuned her out almost forgetting she was there he could fly but how does he do it? jump, a magic word!?
But Tooth lost her patience and instead gave a shrill whistle with two fingers in her mouth and instantly a sworm of green enclosed around him, lifting him into the air.
He screamed clutching his staff to his chest while the sound of chirps buzzed in his ear.
"Calm down, I won't drop you." He tensed but before he could utter a reply he was carried off, the scenery blurring around him as Toothinia and her little fairys took them to the skys, Jack gaped in awe at all the colours how it changed from day to night and back to day again Tooth noticed the awe on his face and was startled at such a pure look.
He didn't know she was taking him prisoner that he was her enemy she knew he was lying to infiltrate the guardians to destroy them on the inside...well at first.
But that expression was too innocent for the boy and something in his eyes showed it wasn't a lie, but she had to keep him with her if he did truly forget maybe they can change his mind start from scratch and hopefully win this war.
Just as they vanished from sight a darkness overshadowed burgess the children turned knowing a sudden feeling of foreboding passing all of them, they ran indoors to the safety of their home and in the forest, deep within the shadows gold menacing eyes stared out, the sound of monstrous whining echoed through the now empty park as a shadowed creature galloped out in the open sniffing the air almost looking for something.
A man sat above on the largest stallion, gripping the reins way too tightly, his pale golden eyes narrowed and crinkled in rage, as his lips turned in an irritated snarl, he looked back and forth his eyes flickering looking and searching for him.
He heard the horses stamping towards him shaking their heads he snarled his head whipping around "Spare me your whining and find him!"
As soon as the nightmares fled from his wrath Pitch looked back still angry but suddenly sobered, a strange expression flickered across his face, one of guilt "Jack...I'm so sorry."
The nightmare in the park perked looking upwards in the direction where Jack and Tooth vanished earlier.
A laugh burst from the winter spirits lips, when the fairies beneath him took him over lands, the sky above changing colours in the blink of an eye, turning from blue and white to pink and gold.
His eyes flickered looking upwards as he saw the sky grow darker then lighter again he looked away from the sky closing his eyes against the wind and relaxed, the wind felt familiar and he held onto that comfort.
Until they slowly he opened his eyes and balked at the mountains around him it was beautiful "I bet even Mother Nature couldn't create this..." He breathed in awe he moved forward on all fours,
Tooth barely paid attention she looked apprehensive and that was when Jack noticed she seemed agitated "Are...you okay?" he couldn't help but ask, he saw her flinch then turn towards him.
She seemed to have forgotten he was there, but didn't say anything instead the fairies took him lower towards a stream.
Jack gave a peculiar look noticing the beautiful garden "These look like fairy pools." he commented, he never stayed still, his eyes always looking around taking every detail, he moved his feet and began to climb atop of rocks always wanting to be higher to get a better view.
She only hovered away "This way." Jack paused then leapt to the ground frost following his wake he wondered what she was going to show him.
She started flying higher and Jack was relieved she had a staircase, it was metal and seemed to be growing out of the earth while the walls were part of the mountain it was beautiful but...it didn't feel like a home.
Soon he was in a corridor the sun reflecting on the golden barriers on either side and he followed Tooth in haste along the pink dimond tiled floor "Where are we going?" he asked curious eyes still wide and tried to see as much as he can.
Tooth faltered "Um...your memories, we're taking you to your memories." she said at last Jack was far from suspicious and only followed "Alright."
Soon they happened upon another corridor but it was more mountain than structure, Jack suddenly felt a chill almost a foreboding from the wind itself, the corridor widened into a room that was bright it was remarkable as no light should touch here in the first place Jack soon noticed the mirrors at the top of the mountain, reflecting the sunlight as if purposely keeping the shadows away but that's not what scared him.
On either side of the platform were cages of the same material as the fort he was in, they were strangely shaped like chinese lanterns, the tops spiked and curled inwards and there were loads lined along the hall, he felt himself clutching his staff tighter, something felt wrong.
"Um...Tooth?" He tried to take a step back but he saw small fairies blocking his path "Jack you have to understand-" she was cut of when the whole mountain suddenly shook, knocking Jack of his feet he fell back with a cry.
Tooth gasped and then cried out when another aftershock hit, the sonic boom ricocheted through the walls.
Jack scrambled wanting to run while she was distracted but she flew down the corridor and vanished leaving him alone, he tried to run the other way but he was met with a wall of fairies he cried out seeing one pointing at him appearing to scream "Charge!"
"Oh no, Ahhhh-!" Other faires turned when they suddenly saw a boy run out the corridor screaming and being pursued by an army of fairies.
he gave a mad scramble climbing foot holes in the mountain side trying to get away from the raging furried birds, he ran to the top looking for a way out he but he became lost everything looked the same and he thought he was running in circles.
He heard little chirps in the distance and felt his panic rising until suddenly he saw an open platform, he sighed in relief and ran out into the opening and saw out of the mountain maybe it was a way out of...
here.
He appeared on a platform high on top the mountain side with no way down but that's not stopped him in his tracks.
He froze stunned when he saw something coming towards them, black shapes that were fast, they sent a chill down his spine. The faires pursuing him froze there eyes trained on the black shapes getting closer, the silence over the palace was deafening as if the roar before the tsunami wave would overcome them.
Jacks eyes squinted "Are those...Horses?"
A terrifying screech exploded from a faires mouth and they all moved in formation of thousands, like bee's in a hive becoming rallied and surged forward to meet the dark creatures halfway.
Jack grunted slamming his staff down and bracing his legs as the sudden wind of faires flying past him nearly knocked him forward. He gasped seeing them all fight and attack the strange things, then he heard Tooth barking orders in the distance"Man down the fort- Don't let one of those disgusting things in here." Jack turned back in shock feeling he was in the midst of something that wasn't his fight.
He didn't know what to do his instincts told him to run, not be anywhere near the strange dark things, or the fairy that almost imprisoned him, he took a step back but a screech stopped him he saw faires being chased down the hallways with the horse snapping it's jaws almost clipping a fairys wings.
Fear flashed through him, he reacted not out of his own but for the fairies lives, Tooth saw and gasped and flew forward to save her faires from Jack and the nightmare.
He ran forward raising his staff with each step and slammed it like a baseball bat into the nightmare destroying it, Tooth stopped hovering in confusion and Jack panted his eyes confused from how easy the nightmare was destroyed then worry to the fairies "Are you okay?" they too looked stunned but one fairy with one pink eye and one blue was the first to fly up and peak him on the cheek, they then flew away to deal with the intruders.
Jack decided then to help, he wasn't doing it for Tooth he was doing it for the faires they seemed to be the nicest things here. He turned and then climbed more platforms and looked over to the incoming nightmares he pressed his lips together wondering what he was supposed to do.
A shadow fell over him and a nightmare entered his vision, it was close, he could see the details how it's golden eyes was speckled with tiny dots of black, it huffed black teeth looking sharklike and it had wisps for a mane and the body was rippled almost like sands upon the wave.
Wait- it was made out of sand. Jack fell back with a cry when it snapped towards him he slammed his staff forward in a panic, it struck the nightmare turning it into a pile of sand that evaporated to the winds Jack felt his breathing became erratic he turned seeing the nightmares spilling through. He hefted himself over another balcony squinting against the sun shining of the metal then saw the fairies putting up a fight and managing to destroy one, he couldn't help it he whooped even though this was life threatening it was actually...pretty fun.
Suddenly sprinted towards a herd of nightmares and pushed his foot against a wall, then hopped of the other one pressing himself up against the wall and thrusting himself forward, he leapt into the air just in time as a nightmare flew into his line of attack when he slammed his staff downwards, for a moment he felt as if he was flying.
Then he landed rolling onto his side and shot up instantly raising his staff against a nightmare running towards him and thrusted his staff forwards into its chest.
A battle cry raged through the palace and Jack turned to the source to see Tooth swim forward cutting nightmares with her wings.
Her wings sliced through nightmares which each twist and twirl Jack was mesmerized finding something beautiful with how she moved with the wind, her moves powerful until he saw a nightmare hover in her blind spot his eyes shot open as he realised she wouldn't make it in time,
"Tooth-Look out!" she was too far away and he couldn't get close and the nightmare was right behind her he aimed his staff and was startled when ice shot through slicing into the nightmare Tooth turned in shock seeing a jaggered ice shard in the nightmares chest and it dissolved into sand Tooth looked to Jack in surprise but saw he was occupied with other nightmares.
He gritted his teeth as he nearly fell back his leg bent low as the beast overpowered him until he shoved it off.
She flew towards him helping destroy the nightmare he sighed with relief "Thanks." She looked wary but he wasn't sure if it was directed at him or not. "They keep coming but they look like they're looking for something..." she thought aloud until her eyes widened, Jack didn't see as he kept his back to her having his staff raised and not letting any nightmares cross the border "Reminiscence." She barely breathed Jack turned "Sorry?" He didn't catch what see said but felt her tense against his back, she turned glaring and ordered him to stay put.
She turned to Baby Tooth as he now dubbed it "Watch him!" the Baby Tooth saluted as Tooth seemed to fly into the heart of the mountain and the panel opened up before him it had a diamond in the middle with four others blinking white in a pattern before returning to normal.
Jack looked at Baby Tooth who's eyes didn't leave him.
"So...you're just going to watch me?"
Chirp
"All day?"
chirp
"...Ooookay?"
He pressed his lips together awkwardly and drummed his fingers against his staff until "Not that this isn't fun." he turned instantly going towards the panel "This looks way more interesting." the fairy chirped in horror but he ignored her when he pressed the diamonds that lit up in order, the panel shoot open and Jack looked in awe pressing his lips together "That is so cool." he jumped in excitement running through the corridor narrowing avoiding the rocks jutting out he ducked and swerved with BT hot behind him.
He slowed to a halt when he reached the end of the hall into an empty oval shaped room, it was dark but some light was filtering through giving the place an odd blue hugh, enough to see the large diamond patterned pillar in front of him he looked up and saw it kept on going until he saw a platform at the top. He found himself frowning it was another nest but this one was closed of...why?
He then saw a green blur and knew Tooth was at the top he looked around for a foothold or some way to get up he turned to Baby Tooth who followed him in "Any clue how to get up there?" she gave him an odd look but then turned her head in a huff, she was no help whatsoever what a surprise "Snooty." Jack criticized then saw small footfalls in the tower he stepped forward about to climb and then realised his staff would make it harder he looked around and even checked his person for anything to hold it, he then settled for hooking it into his t-shirt on his back and hoped it woudn't slip out.
"Just in case." he tied his belt around his waist to make sure and all the while Baby Tooth looked more confused watching him properly now Jack didn't see and took a breath hefting himself up and started to climb.
"The trick is..." he said aloud looking for other footfalls as he kept climbing up feeling the strain and the adrenaline of what could happen if he fell "Is not to look down." he grabbed another one pushing his body up grunting a bit when he nearly fell and heard the startled squeak he saw Baby Tooth flying with him every step and it gave him a comfort "I'm okay." he said and started again and found himself saying "I climbed tree's before I could climb...this." Jack stopped looking at his hands he couldn't remember climbing trees but he had an inkling, almost as if a story was told to him long ago.
He couldn't remember the name of it or who told him, it was a piece of information that was brought to light he hummed and started again hoping his memories would come like that...
he found himself near the top and it seemed the weight of gravity grew stronger along with the strain he was panting and tried to save every breath and tried harder to get up the top it wasn't until he was almost there when he had the panicked thought, what if he couldn't get down?
There's nothing worse than being stuck, he felt his hands sweat and tried to get there further,
He finally found the ledge and layed his arm over it hefting himself up and onto his stomach then rolled onto the center with a gasp. Tooth whipped around in shock "Jack!?" She didn't hear him she was so focused on protecting this nest.
Jack raised a hand with a huff as if to say, yep thats me I'm here, totally made it, Baby Tooth seemed to squeak Tooths brow furrowed "He climbed up?" she whispered to BT Jack didn't hear he had his eyes closed, the thought of sitting up hurt and Tooth wasn't going anywhere.
"Why didn't he fly?" the fairy only shrugged and Tooth found herself more discobobled than before. She was about to ask what he was even doing up here when he turned and saw what she was gaurding in the first place.
It was small beams that seemed to hold some sort of golden capsules there were all in a circle and there was one in the middle a total of seven all together. Jack peered closely seeing most looked like men only two were odd of being a girl and some sort of rabbit.
"What are these?" he asked peering closely almost picking one up then hesitated Tooth watched him warily "They are Teeth." She finally answered filling the awkward pause.
He raised an eyebrow "Teeth?" She nodded looking around for any nightmares.
"I'm the tooth fairy, I collect teeth that has fallen out from children who put it under their pillow I then trade their tooth for a money." Jack hummed circling the guards "Sounds fair." he looked like a child told they couldn't touch any of the glass antics in a shop.
"But I don't collect teeth because they're shiny, they hold the most important memories..."
"Happy memories?" he asked hopeful and it seemed to throw her off "um no, just important ones usually the fairies activate the capsules to children or adults remember whats important." Jack nodded seeming to understand.
"And those horse things want...these?" He picked one up, it was a boy with brown hair and eyes with a mischivious smirk he chuckled to himself, maybe if he meet the kid they could get along maybe start a prank fight.
Tooth was tense watching how Jack was examining his own Tooth capsule she was waiting for him to laugh to say she fell for another prank.
He hummed and placed the capsule back down looking to her expectantly she realised he asked a question "Oh um, I don't know." she lied "Maybe the Boogie man wants his teeth back." She joked but Jack only looked blankly "Boogie man?"
She had to admit Jack was a good actor, well you had to be to be a prankster.
Tooth floated to a capsule and picked it up showing the face of it, Jack peered closer and saw the face of a young man with black hair and brown eyes, he looked grim almost pasty looking Jack raised an eyebrow "This guy?" he was the one who controlled the black horses?
"So why are the all here?" Jack looked the the guards wondering why these people were so important to be categorised with the Boogieman?
"These are the guardians memories." Jack raised an eyebrow waiting for her to continue "mine, along with some of my friends." His eyes widened looking back to the little girls face then he saw the rabbits "Why would a rabbit need memorys?" Instead of laughing with him like he expected she looked crestfallen "He needs them more than anyone." Jack's smile faded he scratched his cheek "Is...mine here?" she nodded seeing how his eyes brightened "Really? c-can I see them?" his voice sounded a bit strained and Tooth felt her panic rise again.
What if it was all a trick? she had to be cautious.
"No." When he looked crestfallen she was quick to explain "Those are the memories to your past, before you were Jack frost. We need to find you're memories of this millennia."
Jack frowned and she tried to explain better "It could overload your memories, or possibly be dangerous, you need to remember things on your own first and use your capsule as a last resort." Jack nodded his eyes downcast "alright."
Tooth didn't know what to do, if he was the old Jokul who was lying to her right now wouldn't he have left when she was about to cage him? What was his plan? She remembered how he wanted the teeth capsules himself and yet they were right in front of him instead he suddenly raised his staff close suddenly bracing his feet almost looking as if his hackles raised, looking around it made her panic as well "There inside."
Black sand suddenly exploded in front of them and shifted into horses, Tooth cried out not out of fear or alarm but in anger. She flew forward destroying them in her path blocking them from getting further and in her surprise Jack was on the other side in her blindspot and kept up the fort, not letting the nightmares get anywhere near them.
It was her surprise that caught her of guard, Jack saw, his eyes widening "Tooth!" He ran forward his body shielding hers they both slammed into the ground narrowly missing a nightmare Tooth gasped feeling the breath knocked out of her, one of the capsules was taken Jack sat up growling "No you don't!" She froze hearing the cold voice she associated with Jokul she felt cold fear surge through her leaving the poor fairy paralyzed.
Until his staff struck the nightmare and the Capsule was fell from the best ribcage and began to topple, over the edge.
Where it began to fall to the ground Jack and Tooth froze "Oh no-"
She flew forward finally knocked out of her trance rushing forward to grab it, with her back turned she heard Jack still fight the nightmares. She decided to question his motives later he was helping her now and she didn't have time to get distracted.
She placed the capsule down seamlessly and instantly flew forward destroying any nightmare in her path as she and Jack fought side by side. She growled her wings pierced through sand as the mounds of it fell to the floor it stopped. Jack and Tooth panted waiting for any other nightmare.
"How did they get in here?" Jack asked taking another step back closer to the Guards even Tooth was wary "I don't know...maybe they came through the shadows but the only way they can do that is if the wards were broken." She thought to herself but she had Jack in her line of sight there's no way he did it. Or did he?
She was awoken from her musings when two Fairies appeared and told her the damage report "Wait slow down I...oh..." Jack turned seeing how the Tooth fairy looked crestfallen "He took everything?" Jack felt the weight of her words and moved forward Tooth nearly fell but took a sharp intake "Get the fairies and keep the teeth coming we have backups." Tooth turned and sneered at the black sand "And get this out of my sight."
The two saluted and flew and her cold gaze was directed at him "And you are coming with me." Jack only gulped "kay."
When they walked out the tunnel Jack saw the devastation of the palace and his heart ached for them "I am so sorry." Tooth was about to speak but then closed it and flew forward "This way, if I was attacked it's safe to assume my friend would be too." Jack followed as she went towards the gardens again but she stopped turning to him fully "Why are you here?"
"Um what-"
"Why didn't you leave, or run away when the Nightmares attacked,"
"Oh so that's what they're called." Jack mused wondering what those things were but the Tooth fairy began to look impatient Jack shrugged "Where else could I go?" She frowned "I haven't exactly been nice to you." She said and he nodded "Well you're the first one who can see me." he beamed and thats when she saw it.
Her eyes widened in realisation, he really didn't know who he is.
"Jack, how did you find out you're name?" she asked and Jack pointed up smoothly "The moon." at her pointed look, he then began to look worried "It's...that's not strange is it?" She shook her head quickly "No, no, the opposite. Um We have to find Bunny y'know, the Rabbit." Jack nodded in realisation "It's close to easter and I have to check on him." She must of let some emotion through because Jack stepped forward as they began to move again "Is he your boyfriend?" He grinned knowingly make her flush "No of course not." he laughed an innocent sounding laugh that even made her own lips tug upwards.
When Jack wasn't looking Tooth glanced to MIM in the sky, her eyes narrowed.
What are you planning?
As soon as they landed in Australia, Tooth, for the first time ever, felt worry for the frost spirit. He instantly pulled at his collar his breathing laboured and his unnaturally pale skin looked flushed "Is...is it always this hot?" Jack breathed, starting to fan himself.
Usually when Jack was in hot climates he would use the frost as a blanket of cold on his skin but the way he was looking showed he had no idea how. Tooth started walking through the gravel "I Know it's around here somewhere..." she hummed thoughtfully stomping the ground Jack watched almost bemused "Where's what?" She turned to face him looking exasperated "Bunny's tunnel! There should be an opening around here somewhere..." She looked further stomping the ground "Help me look!"
Jack couldn't help but chuckle but sighed feeling the heat getting to him, he started hitting the ground with his staff and huffed walking a few paces and hitting the ground with her.
It felt as if they were at it for hours and at first when Jack heard a strange noise of the wind whistling he thought it was his imagination but Tooth's scream of surprise made him look and see the Tooth fairy disappear he ran forward to see her fall down a hole and disappear into a tunnel, Jack jumped down landing after her and he couldn't believe his eyes seeing the Tooth fairy looking at him in horror and screaming at him but her voice was muffled by the glass egg shaped cage, that was carrying her away.
Jack was too stunned to do anything until she vanished and he came back to himself giving chase to save the Tooth Fairy.
