So here it is, part 2! This fic is starting to become more intense! ^_^
"It's because of you, Jack," Tooth replied, as she stepped closer to him.
"Me?" Jack swallowed.
"Ever since I laid my eyes on you, and the smiles you gave me. It made me want you even more."
"What are you saying? How did you having a crush on me and just innocent smiles taint your lust?"
"It went beyond that Jack; I've had dreams of us being together. They told me we were meant to be."
Jack scrunched his face and shook his head as he looked at the floor. "You need to go to the other Guardians to get them to help cure your tainted lust," he said, looking back up at Tooth.
Tooth scoffed, "They can't help me with that, Jack. Only you can."
"That's not what I meant," Jack told her. "There has to be another way to help get your lust back to normal."
"Just you," Tooth answered.
"No! That's a lie!"
"Come with me, Jack. We can help each other," Tooth said as she extended her hand for him to take.
"No! You're wrong," he yelled! "And I'm not going anywhere with you!"
Tooth took another step toward him.
Jack couldn't move backward, for he would only run into Irma. He also didn't want to leave her unprotected.
"I'm not going to help you with your lust," Jack yelled, agitatedly! "Ever!"
He also was feeling a bit scared.
How can he escape this?
How can he experience a normal life with Irma, with Tooth intruding whenever she felt like it, thinking she could try to win him over?
He was scared not only for himself but for Irma as well.
What would Tooth do to her? She already threw Irma against a wall!
Was Tooth, in the state she was in, capable of doing even worse things?
Jack swallowed again. "Please, don't hurt Irma again. And please, please just leave."
Tooth's tainted lust suddenly altered its dull appearance, and Jack became wide-eyed when he saw what it transformed into.
It shapeshifted into looking like him.
"No," it came out as a whisper when fear caught in his throat. "Please, stop."
Lust floated toward Jack.
Irma slowly got back to her feet, and Jack brought his free hand in front of her, instinctively, to protect her from Tooth.
Irma brought her hand out from under her blanket to pull Jack and herself away from the wall.
As the two moved, Lust blocked them from going any further.
"She can go. I don't care about her," Tooth said, once again glaring at Irma.
"I'm not going anywhere without him," Irma yelled at her!
Tooth's wings fluttered with disapproval.
"Irma," Jack replied softly, "I don't want you to get hurt again." He kissed her on the temple, "I'll be fine."
"No," Irma said with the same tone as him. "Please, I don't want to leave you!"
"He told you to leave," Tooth hissed!
Then she smiled and said, "He doesn't want you. Otherwise, he would've asked you to stay."
"What?" Jack furrowed his brows, "That's not even close to being true! I'm protecting her from you!"
One of the fifteen little tooth fairies looked through her twenty-fifth window in search of their queen and finally found her.
She flew away from the house to call out to her friends.
As soon as they met up at her location, they flew through the living room window and went between their queen and Jack.
"Out of the way fairies," Tooth ordered. "I'm in the middle of something."
"Yeah, in the middle of trying to separate me from the love of my life," Jack yelled, matter-of-factly!
The fifteen little tooth fairies tweeted at her in unison.
They were so in tune with wanting their queen's explanation of her behavior that they didn't notice the floating blue figure until it went between them and Toothiana.
The figure maintained its appearance of Jack Frost.
They fluttered back in surprise.
"Tooth's lust has become tainted," Jack told them.
They gasped and tweeted some more at Tooth.
"This doesn't concern you, fairies," she said angerly!
With the disruption of the mini tooth fairies, Irma wrapped part of her blanket around Jack and pulled once again to get him to move away.
This time, he went with her.
Though Jack stood now covered by the blanket, he kept hold of the pillow.
The two grabbed their clothes then quickly, but quietly, ran upstairs toward Irma's room.
Being the last one in, Jack gently closed the door behind them.
"Why does this have to happen to me on the best days of my life?" He whispered as he tugged back on his pants.
"I hope the little fairies can get her out of here, and the Guardians can cure her," Irma whispered.
"You and me both," Jack answered.
They rushed to put the rest of their clothes on, for Tooth, yelled out asking, "Jack? Where are you?"
"Oh no," Jack whispered, looking at the closed door. "Little tooth's, please hold her back a little longer," he said to himself in hopefulness.
He looked back at Irma and asked, "is there a way to get down off the roof?"
"I don't know. I never tried."
He jogged over to the window and opened the curtains. When he did, he realized that many hours had passed. It was now evening.
But Jack didn't waste any more time, for they needed to get out of there fast. He opened the window to see if there was a way down to the ground.
There wasn't, but they could easily grip the roof's edge and jump down without any injury.
"It looks simple enough," Jack told Irma. "C'mon, we gotta hurry."
Irma finished dressing then joined him at the window.
"I'll go out first so I can help you down," he said, still in a whisper.
Irma only nodded.
The two carefully walked to the end of the roof. Once there, Jack sat to be able to grip and swing off.
Irma knew that they were in a hurry, but she was hesitant, scared.
"It's all right, babe," it was a louder whisper, so he hoped Tooth didn't hear him. "I'll catch you."
Irma swallowed, made a little nod, then done as Jack did. He caught her, but they fell back into the leftover snow.
"Jack? Are, are you okay," she asked in an apologetic tone?
"I'm fine," he answered, sitting up. "Are you?"
"Yes, I'm good."
Jack helped himself and Irma to their feet. Then they quickly looked around for someplace to hide.
They found a tall, thick bush against the right side of the house and went down behind it. Jack held Irma close.
Toothiana noticed Jack was gone after two minutes once she was able to quiet her fairies.
Once again, lust was back inside of her.
She yelled out to Jack, but he didn't answer.
Irma still had a hold on him, and Tooth couldn't wait to end that.
She flew upstairs, checking everything that had a door.
The mini fairies followed in worry.
Tooth opened the sixth door, and it was the room Jack slept in; Slept in with that woman.
Oh, how that made Tooth shiver with distaste.
She saw Jack's staff leaning against the wall by the bed and flew over to it, picking it up.
Tooth hugged it close to her chest as she said, "He used to take you everywhere. Use you to do his Winter bidding. But now, he doesn't even give you a second thought.
"All he cares about is being around Irma, now. He needs to remember that you, his Winter powers, and bringing fun to children were important.
"I have to get him to realize that as well. Kids need his Fun as much as he and I need each other's love."
Tooth sat the staff on the bed to continue to look for Jack.
The next door she checked was the master bedroom.
No one was there, but she saw the curtain rustle in the wind. She flew to the open window to see if she could spot Jack.
Jack was nowhere in sight.
Tooth flew out the window and called for him once again. "Jack? Jack, please! Your thoughts of love are misguided. I can help you with that. I am your real destiny. Please, come out from hiding."
Jack and Irma ducked further down behind the bush. Irma tightened her grip around him, for she felt that if she didn't, she would lose him.
Jack acknowledged her by rubbing her back. He knew, thanks to the memories, that she was afraid of losing him all over again.
They hoped that both the shadow of the house and the shade of the tall, thick bush would hide their presence.
The little Tooth's were searching for Jack in a flurry, trying to spot him before their queen did.
If they spotted him, they would avert their queen's attention elsewhere, and help Jack escape.
Tooth didn't go low to search, which gave the mini Tooth's an advantage to hide from her to find Jack from a lower vantage point.
Tooth paid no attention to what her fairies were doing. Her eyes only focused on finding Jack. She flew to the front of the house.
Two of the little fairies went to the right side of the house and neared the tall bush.
They flew inside it, landing on a branch.
As soon as they landed, though, they heard shuffling and looked down.
Irma and Jack were looking up in surprise. They had a look of fear that they got caught.
The fairies flew down to them and landed on a lower branch. They smiled, at the same time putting a finger to their lips to keep the two humans quiet.
Jack and Irma smiled back and nodded in understanding.
Where the heck is he? Tooth thought to herself. She sighed in aggravation.
He won't listen to me with her around. Then an idea struck her, and she smiled.
"I guess we'll have to play it that way." Tooth crossed her arms, "You win this round again, Irma. But I'm sure to win the next and final one. I'll be sure of that."
Tooth flew off, giving up on trying to search for Jack.
Side note: I have changed Jack's sister's name to Ana in chapter 11 because I found out that that was the actual name the creators have given her. The nickname, Flee has remained because that was correct as well.
Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed this chapter! I love reading, which means I love reading comments as well. So please, don't be afraid to leave your reviews.
Also, please go check out my new 2 chap. fic. 'Invisible Christmas', if you haven't already. :D
