Holy review bomb guys, thanks for all the support from everyone enjoy :)


The ride back to Santaff Claussen was an eerie quiet one; the shock of what Jack had told them disturbed them greatly. No one, not even Jack could have been more disturbed then Nicholas St. North himself.

He refused to look at the teen and went straight to his office after they arrived back at the North Pole. Jack tried to follow his surrogate father but was stopped by Sandy who smiled gently at him.

'Give him time, that was a mighty blow' the sandman explained.

"I shouldn't have said anything," Jack whispered looking defeated.

North paced his office he didn't know whether to scream or break something, so he opted for both. With a mighty roar he began smashing the beautifully crafted ice sculptures and toys he himself had made.

When he finished his vicious attack on his sanctuary he looked around to assess the damage before collapsing in his chair. With a heavy sigh he propped his elbows on his desk and rubbed his tired eyes with his hands before looking over at something.

There beside the nesting doll sat a silver picture frame, North picked up the photo and nearly choked up at the sight of it. There was the first picture the six guardians standing there in front of the globe; Jack was tucked between Bunny and himself. North couldn't' help the smirk at how happy they all looked, Jack especially.

The Russian man had to put the frame face down on the desk after reading the caption on the frame that said 'our first Christmas' and couldn't bear the sight of it any longer.

"We're going to need new picture this year," a voice said startling North.

"Natasha, you are worse then ninjas," the man said to his wife as he put his hand on his chest to steady his heart.

"You my husband are worse then a bull in a china shop," she replied looking around at the destruction done by the man before walking over and leaning on the massive desk.

The room was silent once more, the guardian of wonder looked so lost as he looked up at his wife.

"He must hate me, how could he possibly forgive me for such a crime," North mumbled.

"You know as well as I do that our son thinks the moon and stars of you. There is nothing to forgive my love this was an accident that MiM himself could not have predicted," Natasha explained.

The woman walked up to her husband and wrapped her slim arms around his broad shoulders.

"He could never hate you when for the past two years you have guided him and loved him giving him nothing less then everything he's ever wanted or needed. From the moment that boy was thrown into our lives he became our son," she said.

'This is true no matter what some poltergeist says Jack is my son' North thought possessively for a moment before his feeling of guilt took over once more.

"I can never forgive myself for this, how could this have happened? How could something that I designed to make a child happy cause so much pain and suffering?" he asked more to himself then Natasha.

"Do you remember what we used to tell the children at the orphanage all those years ago my love?" she asked Nicholas gently as she kissed his temple.

"Yes, I remember," he replied quietly.

"Why do we fall down North?" she asked.

"So that we can learn to get back up," he stated with a smirk.

"There is something you must see husband," Tasha stated as she pulled the giant man out of his chair and led him out of the room.

"Why are we doin' this again?" an irritated Bunny asked as he painted what felt like the bazillionith toy since they got back.

"Aster I'm surprised at you, with everything that's happened you honestly think North has had time to get everything ready for Christmas?" Tooth scolded the Easter bunny.

"Sorry darlin' just tired I guess," the pooka gave a weary smile to the pretty fairy who returned it before flying over and giving the bunny a peck on the lips.

The sounds of giggling erupting from the other side of the workshop interrupted the pair and they looked up to see Jack and Wendy wrapping the presents in the different lovely papers and ribbons.

"Those two look cozy," Aster noted with a smirk as he watched Jack tie a purple ribbon in the girl's hair.

"Do you think they know it yet?" Tooth asked laying her head on Bunny's shoulder and her hand on his chest.

'They are still young and have the hearts of children. They will understand how they feel when they are older' Sandy said as he passed by using his sand to carry bags to the sleigh.

The laughter only got louder when Wendy managed to fold a paper hat out of the wrapping paper and put it on Jack's head. He grabbed one of the empty wrapping paper rolls and used it as a makeshift sword as he held it above his head yelling. "yaaaaaarrrrr, I'm a pirate."

One of the yetis that was walking by carrying presents was not impressed by Jack the pirate and knocked him forward when his giant elbow hit the back of the teen's head.

He grumbled something that vaguely translated into, "yaaaarrrrrr get back to work."

Aster growled at the yeti as the winter sprite took a nosedive and taking the wind with him on the way down. He was about to go tear the yeti a new one when somebody beat him to it and he looked up to see a furious tooth fairy.

'Remind me to never piss her off' he thought to himself as he watched her hands extend to reveal sharp claws and a dark look in her violet eyes.

"Excuse me for a moment, I need to teach that yeti a lesson," she said in an emotionless tone before flying off after her victim.

Aster only slightly pitied the fool that was about to learn why Tooth was a fearsome guardian and why you never touched her sweet tooth. The scuffling on the floor caught his attention and he remembered that the teenagers were still down there and walked over.

"Ya alrigh' down there?" the pooka asked amused but his smirk disappeared when he saw their position on the ground.

Jack was on top of Wendy and had pushed his upper body up with his arms that were extended on both sides of the girl's head. The boy's cheeks were completely frosted and Wendy's body was nearly invisible.

'Their blushing pretty bad, they didn't-…oh no they did' Bunny thought.

Jack knew he should get up but he was in to much shock at what happened. After he fell over he noticed he landed on something soft; opening his eyes he saw that it was Wendy lying beneath him.

The teen didn't know how it happened but without thinking, blinking or even breathing he went in and left a soft kiss on her lips. What surprised him was that she actually kissed him back and he quickly pulled away and saw the girl nearly invisible.

They didn't hear Aster ask them if they were ok and they certainly didn't notice when the pooka came up behind them and lifted Jack off the girl.

"Alrigh' mate ah need a pair of fresh eyes to do this paintin'," he said as threw the teen over his shoulder and held his hand out to help Wendy up.

"TOOTH, WE NEED ON WRAPPIN' DARLIN' YA CAN KILL 'IM LATER," Bunny hollered over to the fairy who instantly stopped what she was doing to come over to help, suddenly remembering why they were in the workshop.

When Toothiana flew over she was a little surprised to see a frosted Jack being carried over Bunny's shoulder who looked a little flustered himself. Then she noticed the invisible outline of Wendy and a knowing smirk found its way to her face

"Jack is gonna help me pain' for a while then we'll switch," Bunny said quickly before walking over to one of the many paint stations and plopped the boy down beside him.

He didn't say anything at first, just sat down beside the teen and picked his brush to continue his work. Bunny heard Jack sigh before grabbing his own brush and started painting as well in silence.

"So ya gonna tell me wha' happened?" the pooka asked nonchalantly not stopping his work for even a second.

"I don't even really know," the teen replied.

"Well how long have ya had a soft spot for the sheilla?" Bunny asked allowing himself to glance over at the flustered boy.

"Honestly, probably since always. She was my first friend and the one person that never left my side, even if I couldn't touch her and she couldn't talk to me I always knew she was there watching my back," he explained and then looked up at the pooka.

"Then what's stoppin' ya kid?" Bunny asked putting his brush down.

"Bunny, she's my friend. She's been my friend since the day I was reborn, what if she doesn't like me back? What if it doesn't work out? What if she-" Jack was cut off by a paw covering his mouth.

"Trust me ya don' wanna be an immortal spendin' eternity wonderin' yer 'wha' ifs' alrigh'. Jus' take a chance, we, I will be baking you up," he explained before releasing his paw.

"She's a good sheilla fer ya mate," he said before starting his work once more and then smirked before adding, "I question 'er taste in men but a good girl."

Jack looked annoyed as he flung some of his green paint on the pooka's cheek earning him a growl.

"Oh its on now blizzard boy," Bunny said before pulling the child in a headlock and quickly drawing a curly mustache on his face.

The teen just laughed as he pulled out of the headlock and tackled the pooka to the ground. The girls and Sandy shook their heads as they looked over at the pair wrestling with paintbrushes and shook their heads before getting back to work.

North couldn't believe what he was seeing, in his absence the toys were still all being made and beautifully wrapped before put in his sleigh. He looked over and saw his friends and his family all working hard to get everything ready for Christmas Eve. North looked at his watch and was surprised to realize that it was tomorrow.

"How was this done? It looks as though we are actually ahead of schedule," North asked in awe.

"Your son did this for you," Natasha explained.

The Russian man looked over at the boy with pride, the winter sprite had his tongue out in concentration as he painted the toys.

"While you were feeling the guilty over him he was feeling a guilt over you," she said and when she met her husband's confused face she explained, "he said he didn't want to be responsible for the destruction of another holiday, especially yours."

North wasted no time as he practically ran over to the painting station surprising both Jack and Bunny. Nicholas couldn't help but chuckle as he noticed the paint that adorned the faces in front of him. While Jack had a curly mustache on his face Bunny had words written on his forehead in bright red that said:

'X-MAS RULES'

"Jack, can we talk?" North asked and with a nod from the boy he led him into the globe room. Without a word the guardian of wonder walked over to his son and pulled him into a tight hug.

"Jack, I am so sorry. I never wanted for any child to get hurt using something I created with my own hands, please forgive me," he said to the teen.

"Pop, there is nothing for you to be sorry about, it was an accident nobody is to blame for it," Jack explained quickly.

"If you want to blame somebody blame me. I was supposed to check for weak spots before Emily went on the ice, it was my job to keep her safe from something like that," the teen ranted wanting nothing more then to take the guilt away from the man.

"You were a boy Jack, how could you have known," North said gently.

"How could you?" Jack asked surprising the guardian.

It finally dawned on the man, there was no way he could have protected those children from something that was out of his control. As much as he'd like to say he protected the children from everything there were just certain things he did not have the ability to stop. North felt like a weight had been lifted off of him because in that moment thanks to his son he could finally forgive himself.

"Thank you," he said puling away from the teen.

"I'm so proud to have you as my son but I deeply regret that you had to ripped away from your family in order for it to be a reality. We will find away to bring your father peace Jack I promise," Nicholas vowed as he stared the boy dead in the eye.

"I know we will because I already know what needs to be done," Jack explained in a somber tone.

"What is it Jack? Name it we will help you," replied the Russian.

"Just promise you'll be there backing me up ok," Jack said before turning to walk out of the room.

North looked to the moon wondering what he could possibly need to do to stop the man's pain and what they could do to help him.

"North," the man heard Jack say and turned around to see a 5 year old Jack Frost standing at the door.

"Jack Overland maybe his son but I'll always be yours," he said with a smile on his face before walking out the door leaving Nicholas to his thoughts.
