Here is my chapter for Imagine this month, I made the last one short because I just wanted to zip through that part, this one is longer. The Journey is just getting started here, we also start to learn about what happened to Ema's memories. Enjoy.


I approached the empty hole, where there used to be a tooth box. It's hard to get a sense of what illusion was there, especially if it disappeared a long time ago. I was a little rusty at the skill; I barely had to do it. I could only try.

I put my hand over the empty tooth box hole, trying to get a feel for it, tune into what used to be there. I asked Mini-me if she could see anything going on in my head; she would let me know if she did. Maybe nothing was ever here.

Then I felt it, a feeling that something, an illusion, was there before.

"Okay," I said. "I got something." I started to shout out facts as they came into my head.

"This illusion was destroyed 25 years ago." I saw a vision of what happened to the illusion; it made me jump a little.

"This illusion was destroyed by a nightmare." That was when I saw in my head what it was.

"This was an illusion of tooth box. The picture was of a little girl, and the name reads … Ema … Craw … Fay." That was my name. I didn't recognize the Craw part, but that was my name!

"This is real?" I asked desperately.

"Yes, Ema," said Jack, "This is real." I wanted to cry out with joy as he said that, but then I truly believed I had memories of my own, and they were out there somewhere with the person who stole them. Who would do that? It obviously wasn't Pitch; all he got was an illusion. How was the Illusion made in the first place? That reminded me that I wasn't done analyzing.

I put my hand back on the empty hole. After I was back in tune with it, I continued analyzing.

"The illusion's age was around for 82 years when destroyed." That's a long time for an illusion to be around. Then I got a vision of what created the illusion … an arrowhead?

"The illusion was made by … one of my arrows? That doesn't make any sense, I was never here before; How can that have happened?!"

"I thought you would know who made it," said Jack.

"No; I'm usually the one who makes them, Therefore, I don't need to know who makes them."

"Think, Think, Think," said North. "Who would take Ema's memories?" Sandy made some images of someone being invisible.

"You're right, Sandy," I said. "They obviously wanted to cover their tracks. So they didn't want anybody to know what they were doing."

"The one to take them probably had something big against Ema," said Bunny. "Well, that could be anyone."

"Hey," I said, "Can't an artist express herself?"

"Apparently not," He said.

"Do you think the Leprecons or the demons did it?" asked Tooth.

"The demons barely leave the netherworld, and the Leprecons would not come here just to steal my tooth box. In fact, I get along quite well with both the Demons and the Leprecons," I said. 'Well not so much the demons anymore, after they betrayed me to Pitch.' I thought.

"No one has your power to make illusions, so they'd have to steal your arrow when it was still in flight, then they'd have to make it seem like it wasn't stolen. Ema, do you know who be able to do that?" asked Jack.

"Hmm," I said. Meanwhile I mentally told Mini-me to file through the memories I had to see if something like that came up. It took a few minutes, but then I remembered something; a competition with a certain someone that started 117 years ago, and ended 107 years ago. It was the competition of the 1920's, the invention era. The competition had to do with Archery, and a few times during the competition my arrows kept mysteriously braking and I had to keep making new ones. The only time I lost arrows, it was plainly obvious.

"I know exactly who took my memories." I said clenching my teeth. I was starting to steam.

"Ema," said Jack, concerned. I suddenly burst into flames, completely red.

"CUPID!!" I screamed, shaking my fist to the sky. I shot off like a rocket and started to zoom towards Cupid's place.


"I've only seen her that mad once before," said Jack, a little shocked at what he just saw.

Sandy made some images of him, a stop sign and Ema in flames.

"Sandy's right, Jack," said Tooth. "You need to stop her before she gets ahead of herself. Cupid could get seriously hurt."

"If I go by myself, how will you guys ever catch up? She's really fast."

"We'll stay here and man down fort," said North, "Just make sure Ema's out of danger, and that she receives memories of hers, then come back."

"Alright, you can count on me."

"We should also all try to find out what exactly Pitch's plan is, besides destroying us and Ema," said Bunny.

"Agreed," they all said.

"Good luck, Jack," said Tooth. With a nod, Jack then flew off to follow Ema. What he didn't notice, was that Baby Tooth was following him.


I was in an unstoppable rage, like a meteor or comet, at least I thought so. Apparently, I could be stopped. Jack used the winds to slow me down so he could get in front of me.

"GET OUT OF THE WAY JACK, OR I'LL HURT YOU!"

"Ema, I know you would never do that."

"I COULD, I'M REALLY ANGRY RIGHT NOW!"

"Calm down, Ema."

"I can't calm down knowing that the devil with angel's wings has had my memories in her clutches for 117 years!"

"Hear me out, Ema! We will go to Cupid's to get your memories, but we will not kill her. Okay?"

"She deserves it! She stole my memories! Who steals a person's memories?!"

"Pitch?"

"Yes, Pitch, exactly! She's just as bad as him!"

"Yeah, but we don't kill people who do bad things, even if we really hate them."

"I'm not a guardian!"

"You'll be as bad as him if you do what you want to her." I stopped flaming right there.

'He's right,' I heard Mini-me. 'Pitch attacks everyone who angers him."

'I'm still mad at her!' I thought back.

'You're not going to attack her, right?'

'I'll try,' I thought begrudgingly.

"Oh alright, Jack," I spat.

"Okay then, let's go." Just as he said that, there a little twittering beside us; I looked to see Baby Tooth was with us.

"Baby Tooth!?" cried Jack, "You're supposed to be back at the Tooth Palace!" She flew up to me. She grabbed at my right hand and I held it out for her. She landed in the palm of my hand, and then turned around to face my fingers. At the top of my index and middle finger, she pressed down really hard with her own hands. There was a glow, and then she let go and turned back around.

I was confused for a moment of what she did, then Mini-me had this Hypothesis.

"So, if come across my tooth box, I'll be able to open it and get my memories?" Baby Tooth nodded.

"Thank you, Baby Tooth. Thank you very much." I said.

After that, Baby Tooth flew off back to the Tooth Palace, while we flew off to Cupid's.


So what about that? I decided I didn't need the guardians on this Journey because it's hard to think of stuff they would say, that and it's Ema's journey. I don't own Rise of the Guardians, I just own Ema and the Leprecons and Cupid, and the demons of Halloween. Also, what's with that thing baby tooth did? I thought that Ema should open her memories before she gets back to the fairies, and fairies are the only ones that can unlock them. I just going to say that the fairies feel sorry that her memories were stolen a long time ago and they couldn't find them, so they're giving her the ability to open her tooth box when she finds it as a gift. Anyway, stay tuned for the next chapter, and tell me what you think in reveiws. R&R.
