Disclaimer for all my fics- I don't own any of the characters except Aki, who is my own character in another fic.
Jack lay curled up in the globe room at the Pole, tears falling, frozen, from his eyes as he clutched the last reminders he had of his, once, fellow Guardians. One of Bunny's broken boomerangs, one of North's sacks' of dreamsand North had insisted Sandy fill in case something were to happen to him again, North's last portal globe and his memory box that Tooth allowed him to keep.
He fought to forget how those he had started to consider his family became lost to him. They had let their guard down, thinking that they had finally defeated Pitch for good when he didn't show up for a least a hundred years.
The signs had been there but they had missed them or if passed them off as harmless, as Pitch had gradually taken over Sandy's dreamsand a little at a time until he was strong enough to strike his final blow thus ending the existence of North, Sandy, Tooth and Bunny, leaving Jack alone once more though he was completely broken this time.
As Jack lay there, the Yetis and elves that resided at the Pole silently and sorrowfully watch the broken Spirit of Winter, unsure on how to put him back together, most of them anyway. One of the Yetis, Phil, broke away from the group and gently lifted Jack into arms and carried him to the room that was given to him for when he stayed at the Pole.
"I'm sorry Phil, this was my fault, I saw the signs but ignored them. I thought it was just a few stray Nightmares." Jack whispered as Phil set him down his bed of ice. The yeti replied that it wasn't his fault as he ran a gentle paw through the child Guardian's hair in an effort to sooth him.
As Phil sat with Jack, he noticed the moon coming into view in the skylight above Jack's bed and the moonbeams that surrounded the immortal teen. "Jack." A voice called out to him and Jack, sniffling, sat up to look at the moon.
"MiM?" He asked, as he wiped his eyes free of tears.
"I know you feel lost with the fading of my first four Guardians, I have given you time to mourn them, but I now need you to pick yourself up and find the three new Guardians I have chosen to help you fight Pitch once more.
They are Seasonal Spirits, like you, that Mother Earth and I have worked together to bring back to life. They're all close to your age, you have two sisters and a brother. Your sisters are in charge of Spring and Summer while your brother is in charge of fall or Autumn.
You will know them when you meet them but you must get to them before Pitch does, he knows about them and will do anything to keep you away from them." MiM informed him and Jack nodded once before he had Phil retrieve his staff so he could begin his search for the other three.
He made a stop to Burgess before he began his search. "Hey Jamie, thought I would stop by for a visit before I do what I've been asked to do. Sad to say I'm the last Guardian but I will do everything in my power to defeat Pitch once and for all in honor of the others memory.
If you see my family where you are then tell them hello for me and that I will join them when it's my time to. I'll talk to you later kiddo." Jack placed a hand on the tombstone of Jamie's grave before he called the wind to him.
Yes, I'm working on another Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons fic, hope you enjoy it. I will update this one when I can for I am working on two others, Aki and Frozen Star. I don't do this often but I'm asking if you could please review this fic as well as the others I'm working on, thanks.
