Burgess Forest
"SLEET! JACK! I was so worried about you two." Ramoria yipped in joy but then she noticed Sleet's weakened state and Jack's sleeping form. "What happened to you two?" Ramoria gasped in worry as Sleet walked over to the wolves's cave and gently laid his sleeping brother on a pile of animal furs that the wolves slept on. "I found Hina asleep in an alley and woke her up to see what happened." Sleet explained to his mother, "After she told me what happened to Jack I ran up to the North Pole to see if that was where his captors took him, I howled our location howl to see if Jack was safe and he howled back saying that he was in a strange building and that four strangers that called themselves the Guardians were there with him." The wolf continued, "I was so worried that I changed into my spirit form and got him out of there."
"YOU DID WHAT?" Ramoria barked to her son, "Sleet, you know how dangerous that is." Sleet shrank back in fear and Ramoria noticed it and nuzzled her son, "(Sigh) Sleet my son, I am not mad at you, I was just so worried about you." the wolf apologized, "If anything ever happened to you or your siblings, I would be broken. I don't want to loose you or any of you." Sleet sighed and said, "It's alright mother."
Ramoria turned her head and looked in the cave, Hina, Jiro, and Hiro were now all snuggled up to Jack and were sleeping peacefully. "Sleet, I am leaving for a bit to go and talk to those spirits that you encountered." Ramoria told her eldest son, "You're in charge while I'm gone." With that, the female wolf spirit began to leave but was stopped when Sleet spoke up, "Mother, please don't break them."
North Pole 20 Minutes Later
All of the Guardians were in shock over what had happened just moments ago, "What the bloody hell just happened?" Bunny asked aloud breaking the silence. "What was that thing?" Tooth asked North who was rubbing his face in exasperation and answered, "That was a forest wolf spirit, a giant wolf with magic powers descended of the wolf god Moro and a protector of forests." All of the Guardians were shocked, "But...But I thought they were extinct." Tooth stammered, "No, there are many wolf spirits in the world but they disguise themselves as common wolves." North explained
Bunnymund shivered a bit from a sudden cold breeze, not noticing that Ramoria was walking in through the still broken window. Sandy noticed her and tried to flash sand images to get the Pooka's attention but he failed, "Well this is bloody perfect, not only do we have to find Jack Frost and make the bloke a Guardian to help us beat Pitch, but now we have to convince him that he's not one of those mangy dingos." Bunny shouted still not noticing the wolf spirit who was now starting to growl and then pounced on Bunny and barked at the fear-stricken rabbit "YOU WILL DO NO SUCH THING!"
All of the Guardians stared at the large wolf as she stomped off Bunny and walked over to them, North was the first one to speak up and asked, "Who are you?" Ramoria glared at the Russian man and was about to answer but Tooth had opened her mouth and started to look at her teeth, "Ugh, your teeth are healthy and strong but you really need to clean them, there's so much meat stuck between them" Tooth lectured the wolf who was about tho bite the fairy's hands off, but Sandy noticed this and used one of his dreamsand whip to pull the fairy away just as the wolf snapped her jaws shut. Ramoria turned to North and said, "I am Ramoria, protector of Burgess Forest and Jack Frost's mother."
The tension in the room was so thick that North could cut it with his swords. So this was the wolf that raised Jack. North stepped up, he heard about deities like this and knew that he and the others needed to show respect or else they would suffer. The large man gestured to Sandy who nodded and flashed dreamsand pictures to Tooth and Bunnymund (Who was still on the floor shivering in fear) telling them that they needed to bow. "It is great honor to meet a deity such as yourself great Ramoria." North said and then began to introduce himself and the Guardians, "I am Nicholas St. North or North if you like, this is Sanderson Mansnoozie the Sandman or Sandy, this is Toothiana the Tooth Fairy or Tooth, and this is E. Aster Bunnymund the Easter Bunny or Bunnymund. We are the Guardians of Childhood and we protect the Wonder, Memories, Hopes, and Dreams."
Ramoria scoffed at this, "Flattery will get you nowhere with this." she growled, "I know who you are and I will not let my son join you in becoming a Guardian and moon forbid he'll ever fight Pitch." Ramoria barked to the Guardians who were stunned. How did she know? Bunny stood up a little shaky and stammered, "Uh, Its uh... Its not really a ch-ch-choice sheila. The m-m-m-Man in the Moon chose Jack to... be a Guardian." Ramoria growled and glared at the moon and thought back to the vow she made to the moon on the day she found Jack and the consequences that would happen if she broke that vow and she knew that she had no choice but to agree.
