Chapter 15
"Jack the reason you are having this flashback is because of what Aiden did to you," Katherine looked at him, "When somebody goes something so painful and horrible like what you did. You will remember every painful memory and the most terrifying because your mind and body is trying to register what happened to you."
"On a scale to one to ten and ten being the most painful thing I ever felt in my entire life it was a hundred. That how bad it was."
"But you weren't scared. Pitch would have felt that and shown up no matter how weak he is," Katherine looked at him.
"Because as soon as I hit the ice I heard whips and right before I passed out I saw Sandy knowing he would get someplace safe," Jack saw Aviva give Sandy a kiss on the cheek then slightly yawned.
Katherine smiled at him, "Jack MIM wanted you to know that you were always meant to be a guardian. He was going wait till you were twenty-five because you loved the winter just as much as he does and you not only cared for you sister, but for all the children in the village. You stop fights between brothers, and made sure the children got home before dark. I remember hearing you sing you sister to sleep. "
"Jackie can sing?" Bunny looked at the winter spirit.
"He can," Aviva said, "It was the spring and I stop by because Mother's storm spirit was scaring Flurry who was trying to sleep and I heard him singing her to sleep. I was looking place to get out of the rain and what I did was seeing a father singing his daughter to sleep. Even when he saw me he didn't stop until the song was over."
"I didn't were I heard that song till I got my memories back," Jack smiled when he saw Phil bringing Flurry back who nearly tackled Jack to the to the ground making him laugh, "Flurry, how many cookies did Phil give you he groaned as the seven year old laughed as he tickled her.
Bunny sighed, "Jack, I have to ask you how old were you when you became the spirit of winter?"
"I was eighteen, and yes a still believed in all of you. Don't ask me why I just did," Jack picked Flurry up and got back in the couch. Tooth returned to her set and held her hands out to the little sprite who went to her with a big smile. Tooth returned to her set and held her hands out to the little sprite who went to her with a big smile.
"Katherine, my sister did she have a happy laugh?" Jack asked her, "Once she was safe."
"Yes," Katherine smiled, "Bunny meet her. You heard she was back in Santoff Claussen and you came to visit to see if we needed anything. You were shocked to see a little girl crying in my arms."
"I remember her she had such big brown eyes. She looked at me with shocked and asked if I was the Easter Bunny. I just smiled at her and nodded. Her eyes were sad I wanted to see her smile so I gave her a chocolate egg."
"Jack, Mary named her first child after you," Katherine said making Jack's eyes tear up.

Jack laid awake in bed looking at ceiling at the Tooth Palace. Flurry had her own room not far from the room her shared with Tooth. Baby Tooth promised to stay with the sprite. Tooth was curl up against him her arm wrapped around him as she laid awake, "Jack, if you need to talk I willing to listen."
"I know, Tooth. Can you tell what the village of Stantoff Claussen was like?"
Tooth got up and looked at Jack, "It was place the impossible possible. It was made by a man named Ombric a wizard, he trained North. It was guarded by a massive forest that only the strongest of heart could get you. Then when get through the forest you will see the eight foot bare and it could since what kind of person you are and if you had a good soul it would let you past. Then when you got this clearing you would come face to face with the temptress of the forest. Ombric made to be a very beautiful woman she had a vial that covered her face was made of jewel and she reach her hand out and gold coin would fall like a water fall. If you went for the gold you would turn to stone."
"What if you needed information like you needed North on of you guys."
"Oh she let you know. She also knew how to weld a sword of she needed to. North told me one time, I think it was before he met Bunny. Pitch attacked the village Ombric, Katherine and North were searching for a relic from the golden age that would help defeat Pitch. When they got back because they were worried they got there turned into dolls. Pitch had the children, Bunny showed him why Pooka don't eat chocolate."
"I wish your sister could see what kind of man you turned into," she ran her hand there his hair.
"You want to know why I don't tell anybody my birthday?" Jack looked at as she waited not wanting to hurry him, "It was some day I became a spirit," he toyed with her ear.
Her feathers were gone and she was wearing a thin green nighty, "Jack, your sister would be proud of you now," he made her smile that he sat up and kissed her until she was dizzy making her smile. She kissed him again and pulled him down saying don't start if you're not going to finish.
Smiling Jack and Tooth made love though out the night as the moon glowed brightly in the sky. MIM knew that they were meant to be and little Flurry would have a real mother for the first time in her life.
