IMPORTANT A/N: PLEASE READ

I am incredibly proud and honored to announce that I will be competing in the World Championships for Haidong Gumdo (Korean sword fighting). And while I am so so so excited and happy about it, it will require a lot of work, time, and effort. My training schedule is really crazy, and it leaves me barely any time to do homework, let alone write this. But worry not! I will still update, just not as regularly and probably not as long. Thanks for the support! :)

Gods of Spirits-Spirit Black: Thank you for saying that! I really didn't like that chapter so I'm so happy to hear that you did :)

Guest: I agree. I'm sorry about that it wasn't that great of a chapter, I was really stuck on it. I'll try to do better! :) Thanks for the input.

(Jack's POV)

Jack grinned as the other guardians hopped into the sleigh, Bunny somewhat reluctantly, and turned to his father.

"Well, c'mon dad. There's no time to lose." he said, and watched as his father's expression changed to one of protest.

"I will go my own way, Jokul. I'm sure Coro will help me if she must." he answered, glaring at the sleigh, and Jack rolled his eyes.

"Just get in, it's not that long of a ride with the portal." he said as the wind helped to lift him in, and Loki sighed before climbing gracefully into the sleigh next to his son. He felt the wind settle around him, and sighed again before sitting up at attention.

"Something is coming." he said, then growled softly. "Or should I say someone." After hearing this, the rest of the guardians stood at attention, getting their weapons out, and watched as thunder rolled through the sky before a man appeared dressed in a red cape.

"Uncle Thor!" Jack cheered, and the guardians looked at him shocked.

"Uncle?" Bunny exclaimed, and Loki sighed.

"Nice of you to join us, Thor." he said sarcastically. The wind gathered around him in a gentle, welcoming breeze, and Thor smiled.

"Hello, Coro." he said before turning to his brother and the guardians.

"I don't trust 'im." Bunny said, raising his boomerangs and glaring at Thor, and the wind picked up a bit, protecting Thor.

"Vind, vat is the matter?" North said, confused. "You have never acted this way before."

"Let's all just get to the pole. As I said before, I have a lot to explain." Jack said, trying to prevent a fight from happening, and to his relief the other all nodded and filed into the sleigh once more, this time with Thor as well.

"Right, off ve go!" North said before giving the reins a flick and laughing as the sleigh took off. As usual, Jack hooted in excitement and Bunny shrunk lower in his seat, eyes wide with fright. Thor just grinned, used to the feeling of flying, while Loki scowled and glared at the sky. North then took out his snow globe and swirled it around before saying "I say, to the pole." and throwing it, activating the portal. The sleigh plunged through the portal, the wind racing through it as well before it closed up. Thor and Loki couldn't help but gaze at the snow covered castle before them in awe. North looked smug as he too gazed at his castle, a hint of pride in his eyes. He landed the sleigh and Jack hopped out with wind's help, walking towards the entrance with excitement in his eyes. Jack loved the pole, and hadn't been there for a while because of the avengers. He was happy to be back.

The guardians, with the Asgardians following, walked through the pole to the globe room. The yeti's watched them carefully, shooting Loki suspicious looks and looking at Thor with guarded expressions. They all gathered around the globe, and North turned to Jack, Loki, and Thor with a serious expression, his blue eyes chilled.

"So, tell me vat is happening." he ordered, and Jack sighed.

"It started like this…" Jack went on to explain how he was flying back to Burgess when he found signs of Pitch, and how the avengers had showed up in the middle of his fight with the nightmares.

"Pitch! What is he doing back already!" Tooth yelled, her eyes filled with concern and fear, while Sandy started creating sand pictures moving so fast that nobody could read them. Bunny shushed them before it could get out of control and motioned for Jack to continue on with his story, which he did.

"I was taken to their headquarters, which is a flying invisible ship, and held in an indestructible cell for a while. Windy here found me and led my father to me." he said, shooting the air a small smile. "Oh, I should explain about the wind. You see, the wind is actually my cousin." Jack said, and the guardians found themselves staring at him in shock once again.

"C-cousin? Explain." Bunny ordered, and Jack sighed.

"Perhaps it would be easier if you showed them your face, wind." he said, and the flower petals gathered, signifying Coro had heard him. The guardians watched in awe as the flower petals slowly morphed into the small white haired girl who quickly ran to stand by her cousin, uncle, and father.

"Wind? Is that really you?" Tooth asked, smiling at the girl when she nodded.

"It's nice to formally meet you all." she said politely. "My name is Coro." The guardians all smiled and waved at her.

"I did not know you vere so young." North murmured as he smiled kindly at her.

"Yes. Jack, why don't you explain our history to the guardians." Coro said, turning to Jack who nodded.

"Both me and Coro are from Asgard. We came here about 300 years ago when I hit my head and lost my memories, and well...the rest you all know." he explained briefly, not wanting to go into detail. "Loki is my father while Thor is her father. You've probably heard of them before." The guardians all nodded, having read about Nordic mythology before in their long lifetimes. Coro's expression darkened and the wind grew colder, and the other turned to her with questioning looks on their faces.

"Something is coming."
