The Guardians watched as The Fearlings surrounded Jack. They all ran/ flew to him but were blocked by a large group of Nightmares.
As they battled the nightmares, they heard a scream from the cyclone of Fearlings.
"Jack!" Tooth yelled slicing through the nightmares. It didn't take long for them to battle past the nightmares but by the time they did, Jack was way past saving. But… he was already past saving the minute the fearlings went inside him.
It killed them that Jack, their Jack was suffering, and all they could do was stare. The last time they felt this scared was the when Pitch almost succeeded in 2012. What broke them the most was when Jack through the fearlings, Jack looked at them. And it was the message in that look, that brought tears to their eyes.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I love you.
"Don't fight the fear Jack" Pitch said softly, smiling at the winter spirit. He turned his evil smile to the Guardians barley noticing the weak glare Jack was giving him.
Suddenly, Jack let out another scream making the Guardians gasp. He and the fearlings then rose up off the ground. Pitch hopped on his own cloud of darkness and flew up with them.
In the air, the Guardians saw Pitch slowly make his way to the cyclone of fearlings. When he was only inches away he whispered, "Rise my Nightmare Prince"
Inside the cyclone, a dark laugh was heard and the whole cyclone exploded reveling what had become of their winter spirit.
His skin was now a lot paler then usual and had a grey tinge to it. His eyes, usually bright blue, were dimmer and instead of holding mischief and joy, they held madness, darkness, and coldness. The frost on his hoodie was now black. His hair was still white, but it had dark grey, shadow like streaks in it. his teeth (much to Tooth's horror) were now pointed and sharp.
He was smiling madly and looking at the guardians with a dangerous look.
All the Guardians could do was stare.
"Uh guys" Bunny said nervously looking at the staff. Tooth gasped when she saw it. North and Sandy's jaws dropped.
The staff was charcoal black and it was shaking. After a few seconds, it started crumbling and soon turned to dust.
When the Guardians looked back up, Jack was laughing again. He then stopped and looked at Pitch. "My first action father?"
The guardians gasped at those words. Even Pitch seemed a little surprised. But he soon shook it off and smiled darkly. "Oh, please Jack" he said. He looked at North "Call me dad"
Jack smiled "Ok. What's my first action dad?"
North felt as if he was punched in the gut. Jack usually called him dad. Sure, it wasn't all the time, but it was starting to happen a lot more often to the point where North hoped it would. He viewed Jack as his son, and loved him like one. It felt so awful to see Jack called Pitch dad.
His fellow Guardians noticed and gave him sad looks. They knew if must have hurt when Jack said that. Tooth rubbed his back to comfort him though it didn't do too much.
Pitch grinned "Destroy the Guardians, son"
Jack nodded his head. "You got it" he turned to the Guardians and raised both hands below at the Guardians.
Bunny noticed when Jacks hands started to glow.
"Run" he whispered. He started to back off and yelled "RUN" he shoved the guardians away from Jack and Pitch.
Jack let his first blast of power down at the Guardians and almost hit Bunny, but he managed to move away right on the of time.
The guardians watched as the blast turned into knife sharp spikes that looked like a light touch could make you bleed. What was alarming being the spikes were black on the tips.
Jack then sent another blast down at the Guardians, which they were luckily to doge.
"RUN" Bunny yelled. This time, the Guardians took off.
"Go!" North shouted "Go, go, GO!"
The Guardians were running and flying as fast as their wings/legs would let them while also dodging the ice blasts which Jack got the hang of and were now going down on them like rain except only 2 blasts at a time.
Unfortunately, when you're running from an expert snowball thrower, you're bound to get hit.
Tooth screamed when she felt an ice blast hit her wings and fell to the ground. Luckily no spikes got into them.
Bunny turned when he heard someone scream. "Tooth!" he yelled. He quickly ran back and helped her up on her feet and avoided touching the dark spikes on her wings. Then they both took off running. It was a little hard since Tooth had trouble walking, let alone running, but they made it.
Soon, they made it safely to the sleigh. But they weren't good just yet. Jack was still shooting ice blasts on them.
"Hya!" North yelled. The reindeer took off top speed. Bunny didn't even cower out.
For a minute, the ice blasts stopped. The Guardians looked back to see Jack flying after them.
"Guys!" Tooth yelled "he's catching up on us!"
It was true. Jack was getting a lot closer to the sleigh.
The sleigh suddenly jolted causing the guardians to almost fall off their seats. They looked back to see ice spiked on the back of the sleigh.
Another ice blast came and hit a reindeer on the leg causing it to panic. It started kicking and making sounds of pain.
North quickly pulled out a snow globe.
"North Pole workshop!" he yelled. He threw it and the portal opened up.
"Come on just a little farther" he whispered.
Jack threw another ice blast. This one hit the wing of the sleigh.
With tons of luck, the sleigh made it through the portal and it closed just before Jack could get in. Unfortunately, due to the many ice hits, and the injured reindeer, the sleigh was now very unstable and it was half falling.
"Buckle up my friends we're having bumpy landing!" North shouted.
"THERE ARE NO BLOODY SEATBELTS!" Bunny yelled back. Before North could say anything else, the sleigh took a dive causing all of the Guardians to scream. (or in Sandy's case, silently scream)
"PREPARE FOR LANDING!" North screamed.
With luck, the reindeer were able to last long enough to make it to the ledge of the entrance before the sleigh crashed causing the Guardians to fall out of their seats.
When they recovered, they checked on each other.
"Tooth you ok?"
"I'm fine Bunny, just a little frozen. North?"
"Sleighs kapoot, but I'm fine. Sandy, how are you?"
Sandy nodded his head
"Good. Everyone's fine. We alert yetis ya?"
The reindeer had the sharp ice spikes on his lower right leg and his other legs were badly scratched up from the kicking. Tooth's wings were also covered in ice spikes, and were very numb by now.
A group of medical yetis quickly came over and put the injured reindeer on a stretcher and carried him off.
"To the globe room. We put your wings by fire ya? Melt the ice and warm them up" North said. "We figure out how to fix Jack there"
Sandy helped Tooth out of the sleigh. "Yeah. Good idea North" she said.
With some difficulty, the three guardians were able to get Tooth to the globe room.
As they sat by the fire, they talked on how they would save the frost teen. "What are we going to do?" Tooth asked, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears.
"I don't know Tooth" Bunny said.
"Same here old friend" North said.
Sandy shook his head. He then noticed the moon shining through the open part of the North Pole. He pointed it to the Guardians. Unfortunately, they did not notice.
"We could try talking to him" Tooth suggested.
"I don't think that will work shelia. A chat never worked with fearlings." Bunny said.
Sandy continued pointing to the moon and trying to get his fellow guardians attention. This was always so frustrating! He then spotted an elf walking by, and picked it up. He then shook it ringing its bell catching the attention of the Guardians.
When he finally had the Guardians attention, he grumpily pointed to the moon.
"Ah! Man in Moon! Sandy, why didn't you say anything?" North said.
Sandy felt the sand come out of his ears.
"Been years old friend. So, please tell us, what can we do?" North asked.
The moon shone over a spot on the floor glowing brighter and brighter until the guardian's ad to either look away or close their eyes. When they were able to look back, there was a stone staff with a blue ice orb on top
Then the moon shone over another latch in the floor. This time, a flat crystal came up and as the moon beams shone through a white crystal and a voice was heard.
My dearest Guardians Tsars Lunars voice was soft and kind. Yet, it was regretful and full of sorrow "I bring bad news…"
Manny's voice hesitated for a moment. He knew this would be very hard on the Guardians. Their postures had already slunk at the last words. But they had to know. He just hated being the one to hurt them. "There is no way to turn Jack Frost back into the spirit he was."
