A/N: Hello everyone, this is something I wrote up when I took a break from my other story I'm writing. This was written as a One-shot, but I can continue it if enough people want me too. Anyways, without any further ado I give you chapter one.
Disclaimer: I do not own Jack Frost, or any other of The Rise of the Guardians characters.
It had been three years since Pitch was defeated; in immortal time that was nothing, but to Jack it felt like an eternity. The winter spirit had become sullen around a year after his great victory, slowly he slipped into a deep depression that no one could shake him from. After awhile the rest of the Guardians grew worried about the young teen and strode to cheer him up through their various ways. North brought toys, and cookies that failed to bring a smile to Jack's face much to the large Russian's surprise. Soon Sandy had a try but quickly found out that Jack very rarely slept and when he did it was in a secluded area that only he knew of, after a few weeks the small man had given up. Bunnymund merely huffed at the idea of being cheerful and tried to beat the depression out of the young Guardian but to no avail. Seeing that her friends had failed, Tooth took it upon herself to be the one to get to the root of Jack's problems. After a few days of pursuing the evasive winter spirit, Tooth finally cornered him in his hometown of Burgess.
Jack scowled and gave Tooth the stink eye as she slowly approached him across the icy surface of the small pond he had died in so long ago. "Jack, we can help you" she whispered as the teen in front of her looked like he was about to bolt. "I don't need help" the young Guardian growled despite the look of desperation in his cerulean eyes, Tooth sighed and closed the distance between them. "Then what do you need?" she asked seizing Jack's hand before he could retreat from the confrontation, the teen sighed then collapsed in the snow obviously accepting defeat. "I-I don't know" he whispered as tears slowly started to fill his wide, blue eyes, Tooth stared in disbelief as she watched Jack Frost begin to cry. At a loss for words, the Tooth Fairy merely wrapped her feathered arms around Jack's shivering frame and soothed him as he cried into her neck. Suddenly the silver haired teen grew rigid and he pulled away from Tooth and jumped to his feet much to the other Guardian's disappointment. Angrily, Jack wiped at his eyes trying to dry the tears off his pale face, eventually he gave up and resorted to pacing the cold ice. "What's wrong with you Jack?" Tooth asked rising to her feet and staring at the teen in front of her. "J-Jamie" Jack stuttered when he finally came to a stop, Tooth tilted her head in confusion. "What about him?" she asked still not understanding what her friend was talking about. Jack let out a choked sob and sunk to his knees at Tooth's feet, "I killed him" he whispered and immediately broke into tears again. Confusion spread across the Fairy's features and she slowly eased herself down beside the quivering winter spirit, "What do you mean?" she asked cautiously. Jack sighed and sat up to look into Tooth's eyes, and then to her horror he reached into his mouth and painfully yanked a pearly white tooth loose. "No, that's your top right molar, put it back" She stammered as Jack winced as the intense pain numbed his entire mouth. Silently he slipped the tooth into one of his friends hands and slowly rose to his feet, "it's all in the memories" he whispered before the wind swirled around him sending him flying high above the tree tops. Closing her eyes, Tooth accessed the memories that were trapped in the small object in her hand, soon she was seeing the world as Jack did three years ago.
The day was chilly, but not cold enough to keep people inside, just like Jack liked. The silver haired teen smirked and threw the blue hood off his head to allow his hair to be ruffled by the caress of the wind. Below him a fit of laughter broke out causing him to drop down onto the top of a nearby roof to get in on the fun. Jamie and his friends were having their annual snowball fight in the park where they would be searching for eggs in a few weeks, but for now it was a battleground of snow and sludge. A broad grin cracked Jack's pale face as he watched Jamie lead the charge on his friends hastily constructed snow fort, in a few seconds the air was full of flying snow. The kids continued to play for another hour or so, then slowly, one by one they started to leave for the warmth of their homes. Jamie of course was the last to leave, but by this time the sun was already starting to disappear below the horizon bathing everything in a brilliant gold. Jack grinned mischievously and stooped to pick up a handful of snow just as Jamie was stepping out into the road that would eventually lead to his house. Suddenly the tranquility of the day was shattered by the blaring of a horn and the desperate squeals of a cars brake that weren't going to stop in time. A chill shot up Jack's spine as he abandoned the snowball he was making to sprint down to the road that Jamie was just crossing, instead of his old friend he found a large man quickly dialing number into his cell phone. Ignoring the man, Jack quickly ran around the blue car that was parked in the middle of the icy street and immediately felt all the happiness being sucked from his body. "J-Jamie" he whispered as he slowly sunk to his knees in the shallow snow beside his old friend's broken body, weakly the young teen looked up into jack's pale face. "I-I don't want to die" he choked out of his blood stained mouth, Jack gently cradled the boy in his lap as tears started to drip from his cerulean eyes. Silently Jack sent the wind to Sandy in a feeble attempt to help his friend, after a few painful minutes the Guardians prayers were answered with a thin stream of golden sand that wrapped itself around Jamie's brown hair. Slowly the boy's eyes slid shut leaving Jack cradling his sleeping form, protecting him from the cold.
The memory ended suddenly leaving Tooth with tears in her eyes; she didn't need to see the rest to know what happened anyways. She slowly rose from the snow and looked up at the moon that was now suspended high in the night sky. "Please let him be okay" she whispered before shooting up into the air on her magnificent wings, she turned towards the direction Jack had disappeared and flitted forward determined to catch the wind.
A/N: There you go, if enough people want me to continue I will, but for now it will remain one-shot. Hope you enjoyed it, thanks for reading.
