Family: (n.) "a group of people united by certain convictions or a common affiliation" For years it's been nothing more than a definition in a book for Jack Frost. Until he became a Guardian. And then it wasn't. Successes, struggles, loud and quiet moments of those learning to become just that. (Or, a collection of one shots about family and those who protect it)

There's a war raging, and the Guardians are losing. The Nightmares have pushed them back and they don't seem to be letting up. Plus Jack is nowhere to be found. What will happen to the Guardians of our childhood? Rated T for violence, language, and character deaths.

Tooth is just an ordinary girl with an unusual obsession. She's best friends with a Russian exchange student, a narcoleptic mute, and an Aussie vegetarian. Life was already an adventure for Tooth, but things begin to speed up as she slowly befriends Jack Frost, the coldest kid in town. Jack is hiding something dark, and Tooth is determined to help. AU

Jack finally expresses how much he disapproved of your boyfriend, how much you should belong to him instead. Warning: things get heated. This is rated M for a reason.

Jack plays in the woods. Pitch sends a warning. Bunnymund collects the pieces.

After a deadly attack, Jack receives some unexpected help from some young friends.

What will become of the Guardians when death slinks her way into their lives? "Revenge is sweet, and I always take out the weakest link first. By the time I'm done with you, you will learn to fear the shadows that fall in line behind your feet."

He was my rock. My reason for living. The only thing that kept me alive through these years of pain and suffering. The one that I went to, crying, everyday and he didn't even know why. The one that kept me breathing. The one that helped me fight through the pain. And now he's gone. Forever. Or so I thought. My name is Crystal White, and this is my love story...

Companion piece to chapter 5 of Broken, or: Other legends aren't so fond of Jack Frost becoming a Guardian. Rated T cause of blood, that and I'm paranoid.

'What does one say to the person who saved one's life with a kiss' Tooth saves Jack from a second death by drowning...her method, however, is rather questionable. Rainbow Snowcone/Frostbite.

Bunnymund has been sent to see why it hasn't snowed yet that winter, and is surprised by what he finds.
