Jack wandered into the forest that winter normally is seen when he goes looking for her ,but for 3 days jack hasn't seen winter lately and started to become worried, just as he was about to head back he heard a flute that caught his attention he turned around to look for the sound and decided to follow it deeper into the Forest he soon came to another part of the forest that had a hill with a willow tree and sitting under the willow tree was Winter herself playing a flute as snow fell and animals were around her memorized by the beautiful Melody , he didn't want to Disturbed her but wanted to get a bit closer but just by doing so he stepped on a twig making the music stop and all the animals ran away
"I'm sorry winter I ...I didn't mean to"
"It's ok"
She said getting up from the rock she was sitting on as she looks to Jack
"What are you doing in my Forest?"
"Oh um... I've been looking for you and ...I thought something bad happened to you and I couldn't find you"
He said shyly as he rubbed the back of his neck
"I see...so..it's winter once again"
Winter said looking up at the sky as the snow gently fell
"Yeah, by the way, thank you for helping me spread snow this year"
he said as she looked away
"what are you talking about I didn't do anything"
"that's what you say but I saw you following me around helping me with the snow, thank you winter... really"
Jack said with a smile
"So, got any plans this year?"
He asked as winter sigh and shook her head
"You don't seem to be doing much every year when we meet"
Jack said as she looked at him confused
"For some reason, it's because I start earlier than other so pretty much I'm not in one place for too long"
"Well..."
Jack started as he walked up to her
"Maybe tomorrow if you have time we could do this together...again"
He asked blushing a bit as winter turned and started to walk away
"Hey, where are you going now?"
He asked following her
"Still, have things to do"
"Again but I just found you and I thought you might be interested in coming to a guardian get together"
Jack said as he stopped following her and she stops walking as she turned to look at him
"A Guardian get together?"
"Yeah we normally do it almost every year but with north being busy all the time we don't have time"
"Who is north?"
"What, you don't know north?"
Jack said as winter was silent, Jack thought for a minute and wanted to get her to come to the party with him but was worried she'll decline his offer
"How about this, if you come to the party with me I'll introduce everyone to you, deal?"
He asked walking up to her and holding out his hand, winter looked at it for a minute then looked up to jack
"Jack, is it possible for me to be your equal?"
"What do you mean?"
Jack asked as winter looked down
"He came to me again and said I am like you, but I don't understand what he meant by that"
she said as she looked up at jack
"So he wants me to get close to you, and I am trying, but it's not enough..."
She said as Jack's cheeks heated up a bit
"Well uh, I'm sure it means you should try to get to know me is all like I'm trying to do with you"
Jack said with a smile while taking her hand as he saw her cheeks blush a pink color.
"I...I will try"
She said looking into Jack's eyes, noticing the snowflake pattern, they stood there for a while until Jack started to lean in but was stopped when she put a finger to his lips
"I'm sorry..."
Was all she said as she pulled away from him and vanished by the breeze of the snow, jack was alone now as he sighs knowing he blew it. Jack went to north place and saw he was looking over the Christmas list until he saw jack walked in
"Hello Jack, what's with the long face?"
North asked his friend as jack sigh
"Well, I went to find winter but..."
"Winter, you mean the little snowflake you like?"
"Yea- hey I don't like her, she just a shy person and I'm trying to get her to come out of her shell"
"If you say so, so how's that going?"
"It was going well but now she's backing away more now "
jack said sadly
" I don't know what to do to help her "
"Well I can't give you advice on girls but I know what you should do you ..."
"Can I talk to her!"
Tooth shouted cutting north off appearing in Jack's face making him back away some
"Uh, I don't know, winter seems ok with me around but I think..."
"Please jack please and besides were girls and Im sure I'll be able to break her shell"
"But..."
"Please!"
Tooth begged with puppy eyes as Jack gave in and warned her to turn hypertension down or else winter will run away. Tooth agreed as they went out to look for winter
Winter pov )
Winter was walking through the street in town watch the kids run around playing
"Hey, winter !"
Called a voice as winter stopped and turn to the boy called Jamie
"Hello..."
"You're not with jack today?"
"No, why do you need me to find him for you?"
She asked the boy as he smiled
"No, actually I was hoping you'd come and play with me"
"...I'm sorry, but I have things to do"
"Really like what?"
Jamie asked as winter looked away as in thinking then back to the boy
"um I have to go"
She said as she walked away leaving a confused Jamie. Winter returned back to her forest and came to a stop as she saw snow forming into a person
"What is it this time?"
She asked as chimes of bells could be heard when the wind of snow spoke, winter eyes widen what she was told and nodded
"I will tell him"
She said as the snow vanished leaving her alone, winter stood under the white willow tree thinking until she was caught off guard by very happy hummingbird lady that scared her making her jump back and hide behind the tree
"Oops, sorry I didn't mean to scare you"
She said as winter peeks to see her still there as she gave a wave, and came a little closer. She has tan skin and pink eyes. Instead of hair, she has feathers that make a curved upward style. Instead of clothes, her entire body seems to be covered in mini feathers. Around her wrists and ankles there seem to be golden lines that appear to look like golden bracelets and golden anklets, as well as gold feathers on either side of her head for earrings. Tooth also has long, drapery feathers that start at her waistline and end at her knees. They give the appearance of a skirt or dress
"Hi I'm Tooth, you may know me as the Tooth fairy"
Tooth asked as winter came out from hiding and looked at Tooth.
"So, um I...what's your name?"
Tooth asked as winter saw she was trying to make small talks but wasn't in for it so she started to walk away
"Wait please don't go, I just wanted to talk to you winter"
She said as winter turn to her
"He told you my name?"
She asked as Tooth whispered an "oops" nervously laughed
"Sorry, it's just, you looked lonely so I thought I could talk to you for jack"
"Why?"
"Well, I guess you haven't noticed yet but Jack does like you"
Tooth said with a laugh as winter eyes widen hearing this as her cheeks heated up
"He talks about you a lot you know"
Tooth said as winter stood there stunned as she continued to tell winter the things Jack says about her.
"And you wouldn't believe this just today he said ..."
"Alight Tooth that's enough"
Jack said coming out from hiding as he gave a nervous smile only to see winter glaring at him
"You have every right to be mad at me, I'm sorry"
"Forget it, he's back"
"He? He who?"
"do you know someone by the name of pitch?"
This made jack turn serious just from hearing that name
"Yes we've heard of him but he's been defeated for a long time now, is he...back"
Jacked asked as winter nodded
"Wait winter how do you know pitch?"
tooth asked stopping her
"He told me"
Was all she said as she vanished into a Whirlwind of snow
Jack's pov)
Once winter was gone jack and Tooth went to talk to north about this
"Is that what your little snowflake friend said?"
north ask
"I'm sorry to say but my scanner doesn't show anything, maybe she heard wrong or..."
"If the man on the moon told her then she's not wrong"
Jack said as north sigh then Bunnymund
Showed up
"Hey, guys what are you up to?"
Bunnymund asked
"well Jack's Little Snowflake said that the boogeyman is back and she only got that information from him"
Northside pointing to the monitor that shows the image of the Moon.
"And you believed her?"
Bunnymund asked
"are you calling winter a liar?"
Jack asked Bunnymund as the two glared off at each other, tooth tried to stop it but it wasn't doing much good
"you don't even know who the girl really is and ever since she showed up you've been on cloud 9, you know she could be working with the guy!"
"Why would you say something like that, winter is just like me and she would never lie, sure she is shy and all but despite that she would never lie about something as serious as this"
"How would you know! All you ever do is make googly eyes at the girl who doesn't even talk to any of us but you!"
"That's because I'm trying to make her feel welcome!"
"Yeah I find that hard to believe, I'll find out for myself"
He said as he tapped his foot making a hole then jumped in
Winter pov )
Winter was in her forest resting on a branch until I realized how quiet it was, no birds were heard I started to become curious so I jumped out of the tree and started to walk into the forest but later stopped when I saw part of the land was dead, I was in complete horror as I quickly spun around and came face-to-face with him
"Long time no see little light"
Pitch said with a dark chuckle, I jumped into the air trying to get away when I saw him vanish into black smoke but before I could get high enough I was pulled back down into the snow ground
"Is that any way to treat your husband?"
He said as I growled at him
"How long has it been, 10000 years 3000 years give or take?"
I looked away not able to say anything, I felt him close in on me as he lifted my chin making me look at him
"Answer me"
He said softly, but I couldn't my vision started to blurry with my tears
"You never were a talker back then but that's fine I have another way to make you talk"
He said as I gasp then snapped my fingers making a flash of light form , I heard him screamed out as I made a run for it, I looked back to see if he was following me only to see a cloud of Darkness quickly catching up to me making me run faster I shut my eyes forcing myself to pick up the pace until I knocked into someone when I looked to see who it was I saw it was jack, he grown in pain as he rubbed his head and saw me
"Winter what's wrong?"
Jack asked as he saw that I was breathing heavily and taking double looked at me every second, I pointed to the Direction I came from making Jack look over but he saw nothing I try to speak but nothing would come out which only concerned him even more, as he tried to calm me down but I was so freaked out that it was hard for me to even make sense of what I was trying to say
"Winter, I need you to calm down and tell me what happened"
Jack said with both hands on my shoulder, I was so shaken at what happened I couldn't help but cry as I collapsed on him sobbing on his chest he was surprised at this but he comforts me as he wrapped his arms around me holding me close telling me it's alright then everything when dark. An hour later I woke up in a bed, I sat up and saw I was in a room, my hat and cap was placed on a chair, I sigh thinking over what happened I couldn't believe that I was almost captured by him again, the flashbacks of the event Pierce through my head as I shook my head trying to get the thoughts out. I decided to get out of bed and see where I was as I grab my cape and hat putting them on and walked out of the bedroom only to see a Yeti walk up to me
I didn't know what to say to it as it just looked at me and then singled me to follow it I wasn't sure at first if I should or not but I did anyway only to come into a room that had computers and little elves running around along with yetis carrying objects from one place to the next. Where the hell am I?!
"Winter there you are"
Came Russian accent as a man walked up to me, making me back up
"No no it's okay I won't hurt you"
He said reassuring me but I was still skeptical of him
"Pleased to make your acquaintance my name is north"
North is a tall, buff, and a little rotund man. He has bright blue eyes, thick black eyebrows, and a long white beard and mustache. He customarily wears a black fur hat, a long red coat with black fur trim, and a red plaid shirt. He has the words "naughty" and "nice" tattooed on each forearm respectively and also carries two swords strapped to his waist
He said holding out a hand for me to shake, I looked at him still not trusting him I guess he could tell how unsure I was of him so he put his hand down
"It appears you do not even remember me?"
I raise an eyebrow at what he was talking about until Jack showed up
"Winter your ok?"
He said relieve as he came over to me as if he was going to give me a hug but stopped
"I'm glad that your...um ok I was, worried about you"
He said nervously as I saw his cheeks heat up a bit, he cleared his throat as he scratches the back of his head giving me one of his smiles
