The air was tense with frustration and hatred, you watched as Jack and Pitch glared at each other with a pure disgust for the other, Jack backed up to you gripping his staff tightly his body tense in a defensive posture. The first few seconds were quiet...Deathly quiet, it was almost unbearable, but soon Pitch threw the first strike sending out in your direction a wave of black sand, Jack shouted out loudly as he sent forth a blast of blue light that crackled and sparked. You ducked down covering your head as the loud shock wave of the collision of the two guardians powers smashed together in the air creating a loud boom that echoed through the large cavern. You looked up as the sparkles of dark sand frozen with hints of white and blue drifted down slowly, Jack lunged forward to dash right for Pitch looking to end him. You hear the familiar sound of Tooth's wings flutter down as she lands right next to you kneeling down to protect you from the harsh attacks rushing over head that collide over head, Sandy floated down into the cavern helping Jack fight back Pitch as Tooth picked you up so she could fly out of there with you, she seemed to struggle with you because you weren't a little child, but you try your best to not weigh her down. You watch the fight below between the three powerful beings, as Tooth held you close she zoomed out of the cavern taking you far away to safety, but before you were out of there you heard the huge sonic boom echo through the whole tunnels. "Jack!? Sandy!?" You shout out as your heart fills with worry for the two guardians, but you knew were to far for him or Sandy to hear your voice.
Tooth rests you down slowly onto the cool snow covered ground, she had managed to find a way out onto the surface where North and Bunny were waiting on the sturdy bright red sleigh with its restless reindeer stamping on the frozen dirt, Bunny jumped down from the sleigh causing it to wobble from the weight shift. He rushed over making sure you weren't harmed in anyway as Tooth looked back down the hole which you two had escaped out of. "Where are the other two?" North asked with a grim expression of worry as Tooth clenched her fists chanting in her head for Jack and Sandy to be alright. You were still in a shocked state as you slowly fell to your knee's. Bunny gasped slightly as he knelt down to give you support with his shoulder so you wouldn't fall over onto the hard earth below you. "What happened down there?" Tooth turned around to Bunny as he asked this, her eyes darting over to you as your skin looked pale as snow. "I think... she just got a memory back well she was down there." North whipped his head around staring down at you from his sleigh. "Is this true (y/n)?" You glance up at the sky for a brief second feeling as if you were just given a piece of your shattered heart back. "Yes." Tooth's face lit up with hope at these words as North seemed to relax knowing you weren't hurt and had retrieved another memory, Bunny's ears twitched softly as he stood up taking out his boomerangs. This alerted Tooth and North to put up their guards, but they all soon relaxed when they saw Jack and Sandy zoom out from the hole in the ground with haste, Sandy landed down next to you giving a silent sigh of relief to see that you weren't harmed, as for Jack he landed right down next to the edge of the hole holding his staff at the ready, he was waiting to see if anything had followed him and the peaceful guardian of dreams up the tunnel passage, but soon put his guard down when all the tunnel was filled with was silence. He turned to you seeing just how pale you had become, the corners of your eyes filled with tears as you jumped to your feet running over to him, taken by surprise Jack groaned slightly letting out a soft chuckle as you hugged him tightly. "I was so worried about you!" You blurt out after a few soft sobs that escaped your lips. He wrapped his arms around you in a comforting embrace as he rested his cheek against the side of your head. "It's alright (y/n)...We are all safe now."
As you felt the wind whip around you, you let slip past your lips a soft sigh of comfort. The big red sleigh zipped through the clouds traveling at a soft pace so everybody could relax, everybody was silent though, the air felt dead almost as nobody knew how to approach the subject about your memories, finally Tooth spoke up with the little courage she had to bring up this subject. "What was your memory about, (y/n)?" You looked up slowly from the floor of the sleigh as the guardians looked too you for an answer, you slowly explain to them what you saw in your memory. Jack's eyes went wide as he sat down slowly going paler then he already was, he seemed to finally fully get memory back of that encounter. Tooth goes over to you as she sat down next to you, you could see joy in her eyes. "This is the first step of the plan...It just has to be." Jack's attention snapped back to reality as he looked up. "What plan?" Tooth tensed up a bit as her feathers ruffled up knowing she had said to much about the matter, North looked back briefly as he raised his voice. "All will be explained in time! For now let us get back to workshop and rest!" He snapped the rains as the sleigh sped up slightly.
As the sleigh slowly came to a stop on the dock area you watch as North hops out along with Bunny, and Sandy. You look over at Tooth and Jack whom are waiting for you holding out their hands to be your support, you slip your right hand into Tooth's hand and your left into Jack's. They helped you stand up slowly as you felt your weak legs tremble because of the big fight with Pitch, Jack gave Tooth a glance that told her that even he felt tired after that battle to save you, they slowly walk you into the workshop where everybody was mostly quiet, seeing you so weak and fragile was a painful sight for the guardians and North's helpers, the little elves ran under your feet showing their worry as the yetis offer to carry you to the bedroom that North had you staying in, Jack shakes his head as Tooth slips her hand out of yours letting Jack take on all your weight as you lean on him, he wraps a supportive arm around your waist as he escorts you too the bedroom. North gave the other three a look of pure worry as he understood all to well that the harder part of your story was only about to begin.
Jack lays you down slowly on the bed fluffing up the pillows so it was comfortable for you, he sat on the edge of the bed looking straight ahead towards the stain glass window of the guardian of fun, the look in his eyes was pained in some ways but in others relieved that you were safe, you knew all to well though that he was thinking of what may have happened had he not gotten there in time. You sit up slowly using your elbows to prop up your weak body, you hated this the most though the feeling of being so damn weak that you couldn't even help others who you cared about, it reminded you of when you woke up one morning after a softball game, your whole body ached with soreness and bruises from the roughness of the matches. You rest your left hand gently onto Jack's shoulder snapping him out of his thoughts making him crash land back to reality, he turns his head to you giving you a sorrowful smile. "I'm so sorry you got pulled into this, I never meant-" You cut him off by putting your slender index finger against his cool lips knowing all to well what words he wanted to spill out of his mouth, your cheeks had a soft rose color to them as you lean in towards the teary eyed boy, you were going to give him a simple sweet kiss on the cheek but he decided otherwise, as his hands gently cup your warm cheeks his lips made their way to yours sealing the small bit of space between you two. As his lips pressed against yours sending chills through your skin you felt his hands trail down to your neck, he rubs his thumbs against your jaw line as he pulled away slowly, you gave him a sweet smile as his tears had vanished from his cool icy eyes well you two had been kissing. "I'm alright Jack, I'm right here." He gave a soft huff of relief as he hugged you close tightening his arms a bit to make sure you were really there with him. "I'm going to keep that promise...No matter what."
