Having a day to distract the younger guardians was Bunny's idea. Sure, he had fun seeing all those kids too but he an the older guardians had things to deal with. They didn't have to worry about Crystal, she was at her mothers palace. Sandy had to leave early, since all the kids of the world needed their dreams. North stayed and showed the kids the presents that he had brought, handing them out to each smiling child.

Jamie and Sunny messed around, each time that they got into a 'fight' the kids would side with the youngest guardian. Jack and Snow were the same way, all the kids seemed to prefer the female guardians. Seth was leaning against the sleigh, watching North hand out presents. A few kids ran up to him and jumped up and down, showing him their presents. He smile and patted their heads then a group of little girls came up and grabbed his hand, pulling him over to play.

"Hey Jack!" Snow said while skating around the pond, a small smile on her face. "Remember this?" She asked tapping her toe against the ice.

"If you fall in then it's not my fault," Jack said in a sing-song voice even though his heart was pounding in his chest. He didn't want her to fall in, like he had. Just seeing her on the ice brought so much bad memories.

"You wouldn't let me fall in," Snow said, mimicking Jack's sing-song voice.

Jack shrugged and smirked at her as he walked away, not looking back. He didn't even hear her come up behind him but he was suddenly thrown to the ground, a small form sitting on his back. Snow laughed and leaned down to the other guardians face then kissed his cheek, a smile coming to her lips. Jack's normally pale face turned pink as he felt North's daughter kiss him, even if it was on the cheeks. Before he could do anything the girl jumped to her feet and ran away, laughing like crazy at him.

Jamie laughed as he watched the two of them then felt a tiny form jump onto his back. He laughed when he felt Sunny take off his hat. He turned to her. She was wearing his hat but she didn't actually put it on all the way so it was hanging to one side of her head. She smiled at him widely and he smiled back, fixing the hat on the guardians head. He smiled when he saw her ears poking out, just the little tips. He smiled and rubbed them in between his fingers. She made a purring noise then blushed and looked down while Jamie chuckled quietly.

All this cheerfulness and joy was just a regular day for the children of Burgess. But, of course, it had to be ruined. Everyone heard a dark laugh then nightmare-dust slowly slid over the snow towards them. The kids screamed and hid behind the guardians. North took a step forward.

"Pitch."
