"Jamie, can you hear me? C'mon you need to wake up" Jack begged, the boy was lying in a hospital bed unconscious his mother cried herself to sleep beside her son. Jack took Jamie's small hand in his, "don't worry…I'll find a way to get you better"
It's been five days since the encounter with Pitch's daughter; Toothiana let Baby Tooth in charge of gathering the teeth and leaving quarters. She had to stay in North's place for her safety, the guardians knew Pitch wasn't going after the children's beliefs anymore he was going straight for the kill, straight for them. Toothiana was growing pale and her feathers were falling one by one, she couldn't speak or even keep her eyes open it was like she was slowly morphing into a corpse.
"The children?" North questioned
"Jamie…And all his friends are in the hospital dying, I overheard the doctor saying ten days so this has to be Pitch's doing" Jack said angrily
"Pitch? You mean his daughter, don't tell me you still have a crush on her, mate" Bunny said as if it was a threat.
"I just have a feeling this isn't her fault, this…There has to be a reason why she's doing all this"
"It's because she's evil! No one…No one has ever tried to harm the children but Pitch is not just going for darkness and fear but blood! If we can't save Tooth then we won't be able to save the children"
"If you're thinking like that of course we won't be able to save them!" Jack shouted, "Instead of sitting here and talking about how evil and dark they are I'm going to do something about this…I'll stop Pitch myself"
Jack was about to leave when Sandy tugged on his pants, he looked up and Jack and gave him a look that he wanted to tag along. As Sandy stood on his cloud of dreamsand he followed Jack to his hometown.
"Why, Tooth…How can you still like that idiot of a guardian? He…He let her take your wings and…I'll kill them…I'll kill them for hurting you, for taking you away from me before I could tell you…"
"We are guardians Bunny…Not murderers" North said putting a hand on Bunny's shoulder. "I understand the pain you are feeling but if we stoop to his level we surely will fail"
"We already failed, Tooth is dying…Now the children are losing their lives because we can't figure out how to stop them…What else can we do but stoop to their level" Bunny asked as he held Toothiana's hand in his.
"She's…Crying?" Jack whispered, Sandy pointed out Pitch's daughter. She was by a frozen pound with a rabbit that was bleeding. As they quietly flew in closer they landed on a branch without putting any weight on it, Jack was confused she was different she didn't sound the same as before, she wasn't emotionless.
There was a sudden spark of light and the rabbit's wound suddenly disappeared, as it hopped away the girl wiped her tears with the back of her hand. She turned around and was startled by Jack and Sandy's presence.
"W-Who are you?" She asked, Jack noticed her eyes weren't gray but a bright green. Sandy suddenly hugged her; she seemed confused just as Jack was. Her eyes suddenly widened and she collapsed onto a dream cloud.
"Did you…Knock her out?" Jack asked, Sandy shook his head but he had an ear to ear smile. "Why did she faint…?"
Sandy didn't respond he only stroke the girl's cheek which creeped Jack out a bit, as they headed back to where everyone else was Bunny had his boomerangs ready and aimed at the unconscious girl.
"Why the heck did you bring her here?"
"She's different this time! Her, her eyes were gray but now they're this bright green…She healed this rabbit too so maybe she can-"
"She's going nowhere near Tooth!" Bunny cut him off, Jack sighed holding in his anger
"We have to try or would you rather just sit and watch her die?"
"Enough fighting…! When she wakes up…We'll see what she can do but for now…Sandy, what's with that big smile on your face for?" North asked as everyone stared at the Guardian of Dreams. They watched as he was giving the girl sweet dreams and all of them were confused it was as if…Sandy was close to her or had some type of bond, he quickly wiped the smile off his face when he noticed them all staring.
"Sandy…Do…Do you know this girl?" North asked, Sandy only nodded and with his dreamsand he showed them his story.
Hehe, a bit of a cliff hanger-ish
Sorry this one was so short, got lazy but the next chapter will of course explain how Sandy knows the girl
THAT REMINDS ME...Anyone have any tips on what the girl's name should be?
Thank you! (:
