What to do – the Race:
Bunny, Arya and North were discussing about Pitch in the background "Okay, alright, I admit it. You were right about Pitch," Bunny said.
"I admit it as well, you were right about him being up to no good," Arya added in as well.
"This is one time-"North started.
Meanwhile Janet and Jack decided to comfort Tooth over the loss of his fairies and all the teeth boxes.
"I'm sorry about the fairies," Janet apologized gently to Tooth.
"I'm sorry as well," Jack said.
North continued "- He will pay,"
"You two should've seen them," Tooth said still looking down. "They put up such a fight all the time,"
Baby Tooth twittered nearby sitting on Janet's shoulder.
"Tooth, might I ask: why would Pitch take the teeth?" Jack asked.
"Jack, it's not the teeth that Pitch wanted," Tooth corrected. "It's the memories inside them,"
"Whaddo you mean?" Janet asked.
"Guys, that's why we collect the teeth. They hold the most important memories of childhood," Tooth explained. He started showing the Frost Twins a painting on the Lagoon wall.
As they walked on the water, Jack and Janet's steps created ice.
"My fairies and I watch over them. And when someone needs to remember what's important, we help them," he explained. "We had everyone's here. Including yours' as well,"
"Our memories?" Janet asked confused.
"From when you and your brother were young, Janet. Before you guys became Jack and Janet Frost,"
"But Tooth, Jack and I weren't anything before we were Jack and Janet Frost,"
"How is it even possible?" Jack asked.
"It is possible, Jack. We were all someone before we were chosen," Tooth clarified.
"What?" both Jack and Janet asked at the same time.
"You should have seen Bunny!" North remarked back in the other conversation.
"Hey I told you to never mention that!" Bunny responded.
"The night at the pond, we just...Why we assumed... Are you saying, are you saying that we had a life? Before that, w- we- With a, with a home? And- and a family?" Janet desperately asked Tooth.
"You guys really don't remember?
"All these years the answers were right here..." Janet realised.
If we can find our memories, then we'll know why we're here. Ya have to show us!" Jack justified.
"I'm sorry, guys I can't," Tooth answered.
"Why?" Janet asked shocked.
"Because Pitch has them,"
"Then we have to get them back!" Jack proclaimed.
Tooth suddenly gasped "Oh no..." he screeched in pain when his feathers started molting.
"Tooth, what's wrong?" Janet asked.
"It's the children..." Tooth realised. Everyone's eyes widened when they saw the painting disintegrating. "We're too late,"
"No! No! No such thing as too late!" North shouted refusing to give up and accept defeat. He started hums with his mouth shut as he started thinking of ideas.
"Does he do that when he's thinking?" Jack asked Arya surprised by North's actions.
"Yes. Every time," Arya answered.
"Wait, wait, wait wait wait wait wait! ..." North jolted out his arms pointing one cutlass at Bunny, who flinched backwards. "Idea! Hah!" he gestured with the other sword between Bunny and Sandman. "We! Will collect the teeth!"
"What?" Tooth questioned.
"We get teeth, children keep believing in you," North decoded.
"We're talking 7 continents and millions of kids!" Tooth explained.
"Give me break, you know how many toys I deliver in one night?" North asekd.
"And eggs I hide in one day?" Bunny added as well.
"Jack, Janet if you two help us, we can help you two get your memories," Arya said to Jack and Janet.
"Give us a moment to think," Jack said before he and Janet turned to talk.
"Are you up for this?" he asked.
"You're darn right I am," she agreed. "This is our chance to find out why we were chosen,"
"Then let's do it,"
Jack and Janet smiled at each other and did their fist bump. They turned back to the Guardians and both answered, "We're in!"
Tooth gave out an excited laugh. However Bunny just grumbled.
Their first stop was at a city in China. "Hahahaha!" North charged running over rooftops. "Quickly, quickly!"
"Hop to it, Rabbit! We're five teeth ahead!" Jack goaded Bunny as he and Janet soared beside him.
"Yeah right! Look, I'd tell you two to stay out of my way, but really what's the point? Cuz you guys won't be able to keep up anyway!" Bunny responded as he run as fast a cheetah.
"Is that a challenge, Cottontail?" Jack asked smirking.
"Ooh, you and your sis don't wanna race a rabbit, mate," Bunny started running even faster even more.
"Woah!" Jack gasped at that giant mammal's speed.
"Don't go woah, bro," Janet said. "He doesn't know the power of wings,"
She started flying as fast as the wind in circles around Bunny. His eyes widened at her flying speed. As did Tooth flying nearby.
"Never underestimate the power of wings," Janet advised Bunny as their faces met each other's only Janet's face was upside down.
North suddenly became joyful and delighted. "Is it a race? Is it a race? This is going to be epic!" he jumped down out of chimneys and appeared out of new ones everywhere.
Janet was surprised. "How does he do that?"
"I don't know," her twin answered.
Arya and Sandy were jogging across the rooftops excited that it had become a face.
Tooth was mad as a mad hatter spotting teeth everywhere. "4 bicuspids over there! An incisor two blocks east! Is that a molar? They're everywhere!" he took off in a direction but slamed into a giant sign about toothpaste. "Ugh!"
"You okay, Tooth?" Janet asked.
"I'm fine!" Tooth assured rubbing his nose. "Sorry, it's been a really long time since I've been out in the field," he flew up to Janet so they could talk face to face.
"How long is a long time?" Janet asked.
"440 years, give or take?" Tooth answered. He gasps when he saw teeth resting under a pillow. He giggled and took off much to Janet's surprise.
Jack smirked going through a window, but Bunny appeared first and took the tooth. He chuckled in triumph.
Jack just frowned and shoots ice at Bunny taking the tooth from his frozen body.
He flew up to his sister holding a bag of the teeth they were collecting together as a team and dropped the tooth inside. They fist bumped.
Both North's eyes and mouth widened at "Twins!" he took two identical baby teeth from the two identical girls and went "Chupa!"
"Oh, jackpot!" Arya remarked taking five teeth from under a pillow. "Wow, you must have done so much sport," she saw all the hockey equipment and trophies the kid with so much tooth holes had earned.
North was laughing stepping lightly forward to get another tooth. "Is piece of pie- woah!" He fell into Bunny's underground hole as he was trying to come up. They both got stuck in a tight yet awkward position.
Bunny moaned, "Ow!" They both struggled when they saw Sandman takes it instead. He smirked.
"Dedededede! That's my tooth! Sandy! Sandy!" North sneered. It took a while for him and Bunny to get out of there position.
Tooth in a room went for a tooth under a pillow, but unexpectantly pulled out a mouse instead.
Baby Tooth pinned it to the wall and started beating it up with her beak much to Tooth's anger.
"Hey, take it easy there, champ!" he gently grasped Baby Tooth's wings and pulled her away from the mouse. "What have I told you about attacking things unless you know what they are. The mouse is one of us! Part of the European Division. Ca ya!"
The mouse just squeaked angrily and slammed his hat on the ground.
"You know what let's just go," Tooth suggested. He and Baby Tooth flew out.
Jack came into a room and was about to take a tooth when a face accidently appeared in front of his and he accidently touched it. He looked up and saw it was Arya.
"Oh, sorry," they both said at the same time. They just backed away from each other.
"Here, you can have it," Jack offered to Arya.
"Are you sure?"
"Of course, there's loads of teeth out there," Jack answered.
Arya just smiled, took the tooth and flew out of the window.
Jack's smile still expressed itself as he turned to the other window to get out. Only to see the upside face of his frowning sister. He jumped back in fright.
"You supposed to be collecting the teeth not letting the competition get the teeth,"
"Well, she actually touched it first," Jack argued.
"From now, we're competing against each other," Janet turned to fly away when she remember something else. "Oh and the teeth, we collected are mine,"
She took off quick as a bunny running from predators.
Her brother shouted: "Hey! That's not fair!"
But his sister escaped out of his sight before he could catch her. He growled in anger.
Bunny looked for a tooth in another kid's room but all he found was an arrow on a piece of paper pointing towards the window. He turned and North laughing and dropping out of sight.
A while later Bunny had a new tooth but he screamed when he started slipping on an icy roof.
He slid past Janet who had made the roof icy with the touch of her foot. She snatched the tooth out of Bunny's paws and fist bumped in the air. "Yes!"
"I'll take that," Jack appeared out of nowhere and grabbed it from her hand.
"No!" his sister cursed.
Jack cackled in triumph flying away but Sandy appeared from above him on his sand cloud and took it. "No!"
North was dancing across the rooftops before jumping down a chimney "Hah!"
What he didn't know was that Bunny was already inside the house at the fireplace "Haha," he lit the fireplace to burn the wood and cackled "Ho ho ho."
There was a huge explosion and North screamed "AHH!" his bum was caught on fire.
An hour later everyone gathered near the Brooklyn Bridge, hoisting their bags up for Tooth to see.
"I'm impressed," Tooth remarked. "You guys collect teeth and leave gifts as fast as my fairies! I couldn't be more proud,"
Everyone's eyes widened.
Tooth smacked his forehead. "Please tell me, you guys didn't forget to leave guests,"
Sandman nodded happily but then shook his head no.
Everyone shurgged their shoulders and went 'oops'
Tooth's face lit on fire. "I trust you guys to get the teeth but all of you forgot to leave gifts?!"
They all headed to a laundromat and collected quarters. North was yawning so Arya had to slap his face to keep him awake.
Everyone started leaving quarters and other coins. Whilst Jack, Janet, Arya and Sandy did that North left candy canes and Bunny left Easter eggs. Sandman came through a cat flap to deliver a coin but his eyes widened seeing North having already set up a whole lit Christmas tree. He laughed with pride.
Sandy threw his coin over his shoulder, angry.
Jack went inside a room but Arya had already delivered a coin there.
"Sorry," she quickly apologized.
"Oh, it's fine," Jack assured though actually he wanted to leave his coin there. The two giggled.
Once they revisited all the children, they were all dashing by a window as a young child gawks at them. All but Jack and Janet were visible to him.
They all regathered at the Brooklyn Bridge; Tooth had calmed down and was happy that everything was done. They all went through another portal sitting in North's sleigh.
What they didn't know was that nightmare was watching. He dived down through the ground to Pitch's underground lair to report the news.
