I don't own anything! TEEHEE!
Jack and I just sat there as our past lives flowed through our minds. Tooth seemed to know what was happening and she left the room.
I remembered everything. Jack is my best friend. My crush. All my old feelings for him came back to me, which were much stronger than the ones I've developed since I've met him in my afterlife. The only difference was, all the pain that I felt because of Jack's death, was gone. He's here with me. Right beside me. No pain. Just love.
"I remember..." I trailed off. Jack shook his head to get out of his trance. We both looked at each other. We both smiled and threw ourselves into a hug. "Oh my gosh! I...can't believe it." I mumbled into the crook of his neck. He buried his face into my hair. Tears were already streaming down my face. "Me neither." He muttered.
"I can't believe it's you. I thought I'd never see you again. I thought you were d-de-" I still couldn't finish the sentence. "Shhh It's okay. I'm here. I'm dead, but here." He soothed and stroked my hair. He pulled away, much to my dismay. "Hey, I'm okay. Stop crying." I tried to stop but I couldn't. "Come on." He took my hand and took me out of the castle. I just followed him, not caring where we were going. I don't care where we're going as long as I'm with him.
He took me to the meadow. We flew to the peach tree and sat down at the top branch. He wrapped his arm around me and pulled me to him. I cried into his chest. I don't even know why I was crying. I guess it's the tears that I was holding in as a human. "Cryssy, If I knew you were gonna cry I would've have never took you to see your memories." I just held onto him tighter.
"No. I'm glad I saw them. N-now I know how I died." I said. Jack's fists clenched. "Hey, what's wrong?"
"It's...nothing." Yeah, like that's gonna fool me. "I'm serious. What's wrong?" He sighed. "I'm just...mad."
"At me?" He looked at me, startled that I said that. "What?! No! I can never be mad at you! I'm mad at your dad." His fists clenched more. "Why?"
"He killed you for crying out loud! You saw it! I had to watch as he stabbed that knife into your stomach." He gritted through his teeth. "I can see why your mad. But I'm here. No worries." I said, rubbing his back to calm him down. He took a deep breath.
"I should've seen the signs. You came to me everyday with a new wound. Those only came up when you come here from your house. I should-" "No. Jack, stop it!" I interrupted. "I should've protected you from him! If I've paid more attention then I could've gotten you away from that monster!" I narrowed my eyes.
"Stop blaming yourself! This isn't your fault! Things happen for a reason. What that reason is, I have no idea. If it's anyone's fault, it's mine. I chose to not tell you. I chose to let him beat me. I didn't choose for him to beat me. I chose to let him beat me. I could've told anyone! It's my fault that I'm here now, but I'm proud I'm dead. I died saving YOUR sister from being killed by the monster. I could've let him kill her and just continue on in life, but I didn't.
You couldn't have done anything to protect me."
He sighed. "You're right. I couldn't have done anything to protect you. I just...feel bad."
"Just look at it his way. Lilly was safe. And we're both here, together." He chuckled. We just sat there for a couple hours, enjoying each others company. He even told me about the battle with Pitch. Seems pretty interesting. "I gotta go." He said, suddenly. "Why?"
His cocked his head towards the sky. I looked up and saw the northern lights. "Soooo? It's just the northern lights." He chuckled.
"It's a signal to a guardian meeting thing." Okay? "Wanna come? I don't think it'll hurt." I nodded my head, "Sure."
"Come on! I'll race ya' to the north pole!"
"Oh, no. Not making that mistake again." He laughed. "You should see Bunny and me racing." I can only imagine.
"Woah. This place is awesome!" I exclaimed as we walked through the toy factory. Elves were running around while yeti's were...making...the toys? "I thought the elves made the toys?" I asked.
"Just let them believe that." I heard from behind me. I jumped and fell. Jack tried to catch me but we both fell to the ground. "You always said I was light!" I laughed. "You are! You just fell so quickly...Oh hey North." He said, getting up. Who's North? "North?" I turned around to see a big red blob in front of my face. "Woah!" I jumped back. "Is that...Santa?"
"Nice to meet yer'. Call me North." He held out his big hand and I shook it. "I'm Crystal. Nice to meet you too!" I smiled.
"Oh so your the Crystal that Jack won't stop talking about all the time?" I smirked and turned to looked at Jack's blushing face and crossed my arms.
"I don't talk about you! Okay, maybe sometimes, but not all the time!" I giggled. "Anyway! What's the meeting for?"
"Nothing. Bunny told me that you have a new friend and I wanted to meet her." Jack glared at him.
"Wait, so you made me think that the world may be in danger, and that a new villain has risen, but you just wanted to meet Cryssy?" Well when you say it like that, it makes it sound like a bad thing.
They just stared at each other, not saying anything. Finally someone blinked. And it was totally North. "Ha, you blinked!" I said, pointing at him. They ignored me and just kept glaring at each other. "Anyway, how did you and Jack meet?" He asked.
"Depends. Human or spirit?" Jack chuckled. North looked at us confusingly. "What do you mean?" I was about to answer but then we heard the door open. "North! What's the meeting for? Make it quick! I have dresses to finish and teeth to see!" "What is it this time? It betta' be good." I heard. Tooth, Bunny, and a little yellow man flew/hopped in here. The little yellow guy made a '?' appear above his head. I'm guessing that's the Sandman.
Jack laughed. "It's nothing," He glared at North, "North just wanted to meet Crystal."
"Wait, so you made me think that the world may be in danger, and that a new villain has risen, but you just wanted to meet Cryssy?" Bunny asked. I glared at him. "Don't call me that. Only Jack can." I said, threateningly. Bunny playfully glared at me. "What're YOU gonna do about it?"
"You don't wanna know." I held my arms out and suddenly, fifteen snowballs formed around me. Jack, Tooth, and North 'Oooh' from behind me. "Is tha' a challenge? Cause you don't wanna fight a rabbit, mate." He took out his boomerangs and got into a fighting stance. I laughed. "Aw look, guys! He's not afraid to hit a girl!" Of course, we were just playing.
"You bet I'm not." He said, with a small smile on his face. "Bunny, manners!" Tooth said from behind me. "Bunny? Manners? Can't see it happening." I smirked. "Bring it!" So I did. I flew in the air and chucked all the snowballs at him. He dodged them. "That all you got?" He threw a boomerang at me. I closed my eyes and brung my arms up. An ice wall appeared between me and the boomerang. When it hit the wall, it didn't even leave a dent. "You bet it's not! I'm just getting started!" The ice wall suddenly turned in several icicles. Of course they're not sharp. The guardians would hate me if I hurt him.
"You just made the wrong move." He got into a fighting stance.
"Alright you two, that's enough." North piped in. "Wha-? But North! The fight just started!" Jack whined. I laughed and flew down to him. "Don't worry Jack. They'll be more where that came from." I winked. He chuckled and smirked. Bunny came over.
"Uh that wasn't a real fight was it? I don' really have a reason to fight you." He said. I shook my head. "Nah. Just for fun." He hopped away. "So Tooth...New dress?" She flew over.
"No no. It's not done yet."
"Hurry up!" I pleaded.
"Be patient, young grasshopper." She said in a fake British accent(That goes to you, Iammesmile!) I rolled my eyes. She flew off.
"Wanna go to the town?" Jack asked me. "Sure. Who knows? Maybe we'll see Jamie." A date! Well, in my mind it'll be a date. I don't know about him. No, it's just a simple trip to the vill- town. Nothing more.
"Yep. Let's go then! I'll race ya'." Before I could respond, he flew off. I sighed and started flying.
"Hurry up slowpoke!" Jack joked from in front of me. I laughed. Jack stopped in front of a park. It was about 2:30 pm so no kids were out of school yet, and that means that the snow on the ground was untouched. There was snow everywhere and since it wasn't touched, it made it all the more beautiful. I smiled as I took a breath. "Your work never ceases to amaze me." I chuckled. "Thanks." Jack said from beside me.
Take my hand, Take a breath
Pull me close, and take one step
Keep your eyes locked to mine,
And let the music be your guide
...Started playing from somewhere in the city. I love this song. It's so romantic. I started humming the tune. Jack noticed this and smirked. "May I have this dance?" He asked and held out his hand.
I giggled. "Of course you may!" I took his hand and we started dancing to the music.
It's like catching lightning, the chances of finding, someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling, the way we do
We got more into the dancing. Before we knew it, we were waltzing around the park. He brung his arm up and twirled me, then he pulled me closer to him. I smiled shyly and blushed. He chuckled at my blush.
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance? (Can I have this dance?)
Can I have this dance?
He picked me up and lifted me into the air. I smiled and closed my eyes. When I came back to the ground, his arm went back around my waist. He looked intensely into my eyes. Blue meeting blue. Suddenly, he flew off the ground and pulled me with him. Next thing we knew, we were dancing in mid air, going higher with every step.
Oh, no mountains too high enough, oceans too wide.
'Cause together or not, our dance won't stop
Every step we took it left a trail of sparkling snowflakes. But as soon as they appeared, they disappeared.
Let it rain! Let it pour! What we have is worth fighting for!
We started going back down.
You know I believe, that we are meant to beee-oooh!
We both landed back on the ground and stared into each other's eyes, both of us out of breath. We just stared at each other before we started dancing again.
It's like catching lighting, the chances of finding someone like you (like you)
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling the way we do
Our dance slowed down to just swaying.
And with every step together, we just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance? (Can I have this dance?)
Can I have this dance?
Can I have this dance?
We finally stopped and gazed into each others eyes. His right hand snaked its way to the back of my neck while his other hand was wound around my waist. My breath hitched in my throat. We were both oblivious to the world. It was just me and him.
My hands kneaded into his icy blue hair. We both closed our eyes leaned in. I could feel his cold breath on my lips. It wasn't much longer before our lips touched. I held him tighter as his lips massaged my own. He pulled me closer and I melted in his arms. I moaned at the feeling of his cold, gentle, touch. He pulled away, much to my dismay, and leaned his forehead against mine. He took a deep breath. "I love you, Crystal. I loved you before we died. And I still love you. Forever and Always." He said it! He loves me! I smiled. "I love you too, Jack. More than you could ever imagine." He smiled and immediately kissed me again. I giggled into the kiss.
I loved him. He loved me. This moment was perfect. Nothing could change that. At least that's what I thought...
Mysterious person POV
I chuckled as I watched the pair through my magic snowglobe. I gave a dark laugh. "Enjoy your happiness while it lasts, sweetheart. But we all know, nothing good lasts forever. You will be mine, little girl. Even if I have to kill your little friend, so be it!"
"You'll never get her!" The woman behind me, that was tied to a pole, said. "If I know her, she will defeat you. She is a strong, loyal, and brave young girl." I growled. I took an arrow and threw it at her. At soon as it hit her, it disintegrated into black dust, but the woman was in massive pain. But she didn't scream. She just sat there in pain, looking at the ceiling.
"Shut it Taina! She will be mine!" Finally the pain died off. Taina dropped to the ground, gasping for breath. But the arrow didn't leave a wound.
"I will kill you, dear daughter. Even if it's the last thing I do. And your little friend, nor your mother, can do a thing about it."
