Chapter 9: The Truth

Tooth Palace

Jack's POV

"I have to say, this is very exciting. The big four all in on place." a seemingly familiar voice echoed through the palace. A dark figure came into view. "I'm a little star struck. Did you like my show on the globe, North? Got you together, didn't I?"

"Pitch! You have got thirty seconds to return my fairies!" Tooth yelled.

I got ready to join the others but then, I got a headache.I had visions of a blonde haired woman. And I heard a voice.

I love you, Jack.

I tried to focus. Finally my vision cleared up.

"Oh look, its happening already." Pitch said.

"What is?" I asked.

"Children are waking up and realizing that the Tooth Fairy never came. It seems like such a little thing, but to a child..."

"What's going on?" I asked.

"They don't believe in me anymore." Tooth said, sadly.

"Didn't they tell you Jack," Pitch said "it's great being a guardian, but there's a catch. If enough children stop believing, everything your friends protect, wonder, hopes and dreams, it all goes away. And little by little, so do they. No Christmas or Easter, or little fairies that come in the night. There will be nothing but fear and darkness. And me. It's your turn not to be believed in."

Bunny then threw his boomerang at Pitch. Pitch jumped on his nightmare and fled. The guardians followed. I quickly followed behind them.

We landed at the bottom. We looked around for Pitch.

"He's gone."

I walked up to Tooth.

"I'm sorry about the fairies." I said.

"You should of seen them, they put up such a fight." Tooth replied.

"Why would Pitch take the teeth?"

"It's not the teeth he wanted, it the memories inside them."

"What do you mean?" I asked

"That's why we collect the teeth, Jack. They hold the most important memories of childhood. My fairies and I watch over them, and when someone needs help to remember what's important, we help them."

We stared at the mural on the wall. It showed Tooth taking the teeth from children.

"We had everyone's here. Yours too."

"My memories?"

"From when you were young. Before you became Jack Frost.

"But I wasn't anyone before I was Jack Frost." I said.

"Of course you were. We were all someone before we were chosen."

"What?"

It all made sense. Why I had flash back. I could find out who that woman was who's voice I hear.

"The night at the pond I just assumed...Are you saying... Are you saying that I had a life before that, with a home and a family."

"You really don't remember?"

"All these years, the answers were right here. If I find my memories, then I'll know why I'm here. You have to show me!"

"I can't, Jack. Pitch has them." Tooth said.

"Then we have to get them back!"

Tooth face went to shock. Some of her feathers fell off.

"Oh no. The children. We're too late."

"No! No!" North yelled. "No such thing as too late!"

North began to think, the exclaimed. "Idea! We will collect the teeth."

"What?" Tooth exclaimed.

"We get teeth, children keep believing in you!"

"We're talking seven continents, millions of kids!"

"Give me break. Do you know how many toys I deliver in one night?"

"And eggs I hid in one day?" Bunny said

"And Jack," North turned to me. "If you help us, we will get you your memories."

I looked at them.

"I'm in."

...

Elsa's POV

I sat outside Isa's room waiting for Tooth to arrive. Finally I heard the fitter flutter.

I quickly opened the door. Tooth stared at me with alarm in her eyes.

"Tooth?"

She squinted at me. "Elsa? Is that you?"

"Come on, let's give Isa some privacy." Tooth came out into the hallway and I shut the door.

I turned to Tooth.

"Oh it's so good to see you again." She said.

"Tooth, where's Jack?" I said.

"Oh, Jack, um he's fine, but..."

"But what?"

"He doesn't remember you." She said.

"What!?"

"Look Elsa, after you disappeared in that time tear, Jack wasn't going to stop until he found you. The man in the moon didn't want him to do that for the rest of eternity. So the man in the moon swiped his memory and put it in a tooth."

"Tooth, you need to give Jack his memory back. Isa has gone ten years without a father. She's losing hope."

"I can't. Pitch took all the teeth. Even that one."

"Pitch? Like Kozmotis?"

"Yes."

I looks into Tooth's eyes. "Let me help."

"Elsa, you need to be here, for Isa."

"It's ok. Anna can take care of her."

"Elsa. It's not safe. And Jack is working with us to defeat Pitch. He can't see you yet. It will just damage his memory."

Just then I heard a whisper in Isa's room.

"Tooth, you in here?"

"That's Jack. You can't let him see you. Please."

I looked at the ground.

"Ok. But as soon as you defeat Kozmotis, you give Jack his memories back."

"I promise." Tooth opened the door to Isa's room. I listened in to the conversation that Jack and her had.

"What was that all about?" He said.

"Nothing. The mom is an old friend."

"Oh that's nice. Well, let's go meet up with the others."

I slowly walked downstairs. My poor Jack, all alone and helpless. Not knowing that he has a family. I walked outside I looked at the moon.

"I really wish you hadn't of done that. But I understand why."

But it was still hard. I tell Isa about her father all the time. But now her belief in him is starting to fade.

Plus I missed him so much. I wanted to be with him with all my heart.

It doesn't matter what you've done

I still love you

It doesn't matter where you've been

You can still come home

And honey if it's you

We've got a lot of makin' up to do

And I can't hug you from where you are

So hurry home

I went back up to Isa's room. I kissed her on the forehead.

"Don't worry, my little snowflake. Daddy's coming home soon."

Now Elsa knows about Jack's memories!

But what about the Flashbacks?

Do you think Jack is slowly starting to remember Elsa?

Tell me what you think.

Also, I changed my Pen Name from Elsalover646 to Holster646
