Jamie jerked awake to find himself in some sort of cell. "Hello is anyone there?" He called out and got his answer seconds later when a familiar voice called his name through the wall to his left. "Pippa, are you alright? What's going on?" He pressed his hand to the wall in between them.
"I don't know Jamie but I'm scared. They killed my parents Jamie, why are they doing this? What do they want with us? What if the Guardians can't find us?" Pippa sobbed.
"They'll find us my tooth hasn't fallen out yet. If I can get it out while we're here then either Tooth or one of her mini Fairies will come and get us out of here." Jamie replied hoping to calm his friend. "You remember how I lost my tooth two years ago before we met Jack?"
"Yes, Jack took you on that wild sled ride through town though we didn't know it was him controlling the ice at the time then you were hit by that couch."
"That's right and that night not only did Tooth show up but North, Sandy, Bunny and I imagine Jack was there too though none of us believed in him at the time and I know all five of them will come for us once they know where we are. I just need you to be brave, like the night we helped defeat Pitch."
"Jamie is right we need to be brave and keep believing in the Guardians, that they will come for us." Cupcake stated from the cell to Jamie's right which was followed by Monty's voice directly across from his then Claude and Caleb's on both sides of Monty's.
Unknown to the six children they were being watched by several men. "What do you think boss?" One of the men asked.
The man in question smirked, "We break the two leaders first and the rest will be easy. You two go get the rooms set up and you two go get little Jamie and Heather." He instructed his men, leaning back in his chair. "It's time to show the brats our kind of fun." He chuckled darkly as the men left to do as ordered.
Jamie, refusing to show he was afraid, glared at the man who had entered the cell he was in. "Tough guy huh, well we'll see how tough you are when the boss is through with you." The man sneered as he grabbed Jamie roughly by the arm and drug him out of the cell and corridor, his friends shouting his name.
"Don't worry about me I'll be fine just remember what I told you, be brave and never stop believing!" Jamie shouted back before he was shoved into the elevator, the doors closing behind him and the man. After they were gone a second man yanked open the door to the cell Cupcake was in and before she could react knocked her out by injecting her with a sleeping drug then carelessly flung her over his shoulder and carried her to the elevator, leaving behind the last four children.
Four hours later a bruised, bloody and semi-unconscious Jamie was carelessly dropped back into his cell, his clothes nothing but rags, after the man cruelly slowly strolled down the corridor to let the other four children see him. "This is what'll happen to you if you fight back." The man sneered at them before he left.
Once he was gone Pippa broke into tears, leaning against the wall that separated her and Jamie. "Oh Jamie what did they do to you? What are they doing to Cupcake?" She whispered, worried about the two of them.
"Remain brave guys, no matter what don't let them break you it is what their trying to do before they move us somewhere else. We need to hold on until help arrives." Jamie croaked as he forced his body up and to the door of his cell, sticking his hand out for Pippa to take. "I believe Jack and the others will find us even if it takes them a week, the Guardians will come for us."
After reassuring his friends Jamie limped over to where the small window was and simply stared out it, working on getting his tooth loose enough to pull out, while waiting for whoever had kidnapped them to bring Cupcake back but it wasn't until the next day when she was brought back and in worse shape than Jamie was.
"Jack where are you? Please hurry and find us." Jamie quietly pleaded after he caught sight of Cupcake.
"Where's my family? I want to see them." Sophie demanded not long after she was taken to the police station.
The officer in charge of her sighed as she took a seat in front of her, "I hate to tell you this kid but we arrived too late to save your mom and have yet to find your brother."
"NO! You're lying I want my mommy and brother!" Sophie screamed, tears streaming down her cheeks.
The officer gently took the little girl into her arms to hold her, letting her cry into her shirt and rocking her slightly murmuring soothing words in her ear while rubbing her back. After a while the officer sighed in relief when Sophie's tears stopped and her breath evened out as she fell asleep, not noticing the golden stream of dreamsand circling Sophie's head.
As she stood to go lay Sophie down several people entered the station and introduced themselves to her boss before they joined him in the room where everything pertaining to their case of the missing children was. She shivered as a cold wind blew pass her and grabbed a spare blanket to cover Sophie with in order to keep her warm then walked off to return to her job.
"Poor little ankle-biter, not only was her mother murder but her brother was kidnapped." Bunny muttered as he softly ran a paw through her hair. The rest of the Guardians silently agreed as they watched over the girl child.
As they watched over Sophie Tooth suddenly became excited. "I know where they are! Jamie just lost a tooth and we can use it to track them. Quick Baby, let's go get Jamie's tooth then we can lead the police to where the children are!" She exclaimed as her and Baby Tooth sped off.
"Where is she going?" Reid asked North as he joined them.
"Jamie just lost a tooth and she is tracking it to where he and the others are. Once she has a location she'll return and let the rest of us know so we can go get them." North answered.
When she arrived Tooth found the children being forced into a van, shocked at the state Jamie and Cupcake are in. As he is being shoved into the van Jamie spotted Tooth and began fighting long enough to shout a message to her. "Tooth, tell Sophie I'm alright and not to worry I'll get back her as soon as I can and that her big brother loves her. Tell Jack…" He is cut off as the doors of the van are slammed shut.
"Baby Tooth I want you to stay them so we can find them when the time comes to get them out." Tooth told her mini Tooth Fairy and Baby nodded before zooming after the van managing to slip inside it without the men knowing and settled on Pippa's shoulder.
"Good luck and stay safe Baby." Tooth whispered then flew into the building to retrieve Jamie's lost tooth, which Jamie was forced to leave behind.
"Did you find them?" Jack asked as soon as Tooth returned.
"I did but got there too late, they were moving them right as I got there. I sent Baby Tooth to stay with them so, when the time comes, we can help bring them home." Tooth replied though she kept the condition of Jamie and Cupcake from the others, not wanting to worry them. "Spencer I need to talk with you and your team in private." Tooth said, looking pointedly at her fellow Guardians and warning them not to eaves drop.
Once she was sure they got the message, especially Bunny, she followed Reid into the room where the rest of the BAU team was and closed the door tightly behind her as Reid closed the blinds at her insistence. "What's going on?" Hotch, the team leader, questioned.
"Tooth managed to locate the children just as they were moving them and sent one of her helpers…sorry daughter's with them so it will be easier to find them." Reid stopped to listen as Tooth told him on what Jamie and Cupcake looked like when she did find them, shocking Reid. "We need to find them and fast I believe we're dealing with a human trafficking ring and one that deals with children."
"What is human trafficking?" Tooth asked, confused, Reid turned to her and explained. "WHAT!" Tooth exploded in anger when Reid was done making all those that could hear her winch. "How could someone do such a horrible disgusting thing to innocent children, I don't understand!" She shouted then immediately burst into tears, flung the door open and flew out of the building in order to track Baby Tooth and find the children.
"Tooth, come back." North shouted after her but she ignored him as she sped away intent on not letting the Guardians favorite believers to go through more than what they already went through. North glanced at Jack, who nodded in understanding and went after Tooth in case she should need help, him being the only one who could really keep up with her when she was upset.
"Go away Jack, you shouldn't have to see Jamie like this." Tooth yelled at him but Jack refused to leave, trailing her the whole way to where she felt Baby Tooth, neither realizing that Bay Tooth had been found and caught. The men who had kidnapped the six children having set up a trap for them with Baby Tooth as the bait.
