Pitch's Revenge

Meh first ROTG story. So its basically what the title says.

disclaimer: Me no own, you no sue

"Whoo hoo!" Jack cried as he jumped in the sky. He brushed some clouds with his staff, causing the water particles to turn to a solid. Soon enough, a light drizzle of snow made its way to Earth. The children laughed and cheered when Jack landed. Jack picked up a ball of snow and tossed it up and down in his hand. "Who's up for a snow ball fight?"

It was early December and Jack decided to give South Carolina a snowday since it rarely snowed. After the defeat of Pitch he found that more and more children have started to believe in him, and Jack couldnt have been any happieer. Lately the other guardians have been ignoring him, sayiing they were all to busy. Jack didnt mind much, he knew they had jobs to forfill but the didnt stop him from pulling a prank on them from time to time.

North and Bunny were the most fun to prank. He chuckled at the thought. Like the time he put prunes in one of Nick's cookies. He was out of work for the rest of the day. Or the time he used Aster's giants stone eggs as race cars and accidently crashed them. That left large cracks and holes in the eggs and Jack quickly scrammed from the scene before Bunnymund could have a fit. Until this day Bunny still hasnt fiqured out who had done the crime.

At the thought of that memory Jack bust out laughing and fell to the ground. He began making a snow angle and the kids quickly followed after. Getting up, he admired his work. Taking a closer look at his sculture he noticed something unusual about it. Bending down he squinted his eyes and touched a thin layer of frozen water. It didnt feel like snow at all, it felt more like-

He gasped as a shadow covered his angle and two glowing eyes appeared where the face should be. Jack quickly took out his staff and aimed it at the shadow but it moved before he could freeze it.

"Get out of here!" He yelled to the cowering kids. They began to run away as the shadow chased after them. Jack quickly took off after the shadow, jumping over buildings and spinning off of lamp posts. All the children had splitted, going to diffrent directions, and right now the horse had his sights on a boy who Jack could tell was running out of steam. Jack could see the fear in the childs eyes and quickly made his way two the boy, who was hiding behind a trash can in a dead ally. Just as the horse made its way to the child Jack jumped in front of him, his wooden staff pointed towards the dark creature.

Just as Jack let out a blast of cold air, the creature moved out of the way and slammed into Jack, causing him to crash into the wall and his staff to fly out of his hand. The horse stood up on his hind legs woth an angry nay. He sent his hooves crashing into Jacks chest. Stumbling over from the blow Jack tried to regain composure. The darkly sanded creature then sent a blow to the sprites head, almost knocking him unconcious. Jack probably would've passed out if it wasnt for a voice calling out his name, telling him to get up.

Jack laid on the ground with blood going down his forehead and red tint on the side of his once snow white hair. He tried to get up, but it felt like his head was on fire and his body wwas frozen in ice. He could only watch in blurred vision as the shadowy horse made its way up to the young boy. The boy opened his mouth to scream but was quickly inturrupted when black dust flew into his mouth.

"NO!" Jack screamed, suddenly finding the strength to sit up. A wave of nausia washed over him and he stumbled back. But he kept going to the boy who had frozen in the spot. His eyes were wide open and Jack could clearly see that his pupil had shrunken as he was frozen in fear. The boy opened his mouth ever so slightly as if to let out a scream but all that came out was a low croak. Jack quickened his pace, crawling as fast as he could. Every time he took a step it seemed the boy would get further.

With one final breath the boy fell to the ground. Jack could feel tears welling in his eyes as he felt it was to late. Finally, he made his way towars the boy who face still showed horror, but he was not moving. No sounds were made, he wasnt breathing. Jack pressed his ear against his small chest, checking for a heartbeat. After waiting for about fifthteen seconds he quickly grabbed his arm and checked for a pulse. None. The boy was dead.

Jack stumbled back pulling his blood stained hair. Someone who didnt deserve to die was dead, and it was all his fault. He cried over the paled body,holding his cold hand.

"Im sorry, Im so sorry."


"How'd you think he's holding up there?" Bunnymund asked, looking through a window which showed Jack sitting on the ground, hes head in his knees and his arms wrapped around his leg. The four other guardians had all senced the childs distress and were quick to see what was the problem. What they didnt expect to find was a Jack, bloody and bruised, passed out beside a dead boy. While the Tooth Fairy teleported him back to Santa's workshop to heal his bruises, Bunny and North carried the boy to his house. They left him at the doorstep with a note beside him, telling the parents hos sorry they were. Oh how they wished so much the parents could believe in them as much as the children did, or else they would be explaining things face to face. But because they cant see them, they were only left with only a letter with the signature saying it was Santa Clause.

"What do you think Bunny?" Nick said, crossing his arms with a sad expression.

"Poor Jack, he must be devestaded." Tooth said, blowing her nose. Baby Tooth nuzzled against her cheek, causing her to give a sad smile. Sandy created a rain cloud over his head which rained sand. He had a sad frown on his gold face. "We should go talk to him." Tooth suggested.

"No, I'll just go." Bunnymund said. "We may not be the best of friends, but I want him to know that I'm here for him. You all got plenty of work to do. No need slowing you down." The three nodded and left. Aster took in a breath and walked towards the door that Jack had locked himself in. He slowly opened the door, knocking as he came in. "You ok mate?" Jack glared at him and turned the other way. "Bad question."

"You dont have to be here y'know. You can leave." Jack mumbled. "I know you dont like me." Bunny sighed and sat beside him.

"Now I know you dont really think that about me." He said, pushing Jack playfully with his elbow. He quickly regreted it as Jack winced in pain. "Sorry."

"You wanna know what I see myself as now Aster? A failure. A pethetic little boy who can't do anything but mess things up. I-I should've done more to save him. He was begging me to save him. But what do I do? Lay there like a bum and watch him die."

"Hey! There is nothing you didnt do that none of us would've done differently." Aster argued. Jack clenched his fists, and stood up.

"Of course you would've done something different! Im a guardian, sent to protect kids but I can't even do that!"

"What happened back there Jack, that was not your fault. You were hurt, your lucky we found you when we did." Bunny said, placing a paw on the spites shoulder. "I don't blame you for what happened, and neither should you. We've all been there snowflake."

"What does this mean?" Jack asked, looking down at his blood stained hand. "Why did the sand horse suddenly come back?" Jack already knew the answer, he just didnt want to believe its true.

"It means Pitch has somehow returned. I dont know how but he has."

"Then I will be ready for him." Jack said, determination in his eyes. He shrugged Bunny off of his shoulder and walked out of the room.
