"You are a really good brother Jack," Tooth said.
"Was, I was a really good brother," Jack corrected her.
Sandy shook his head and pulled on Jack's hoodie to get his attention, then once he had it formed and image of Jamie over his head.
"Are a good brother," Tooth repeated.
"Thanks," Jack said with a smile. Soon they were all standing in the same living room but it was decorated for Christmas.
"Ahh, now this is a living room." North approved.
Jack and Pippa were sitting with a bunch of village kids around their fire. Pippa had to have been 8; Jack looked to be 17 almost as old as Jack Frost who was stuck in his 19 year old body.
"We are getting closer to when you were chosen, but Jack I don't understand why Manny would take you away from this." Bunny said.
Jack just shrugged, "I guess you will just have to wait." His tone had a hint of sadness covered by a ton of pride and joy. But it was still there.
They all turned as the door opened causing the snow from outside to rush in with Jack's father.
"I'm home!" he said with a buck thrown over his shoulder, "And I have Christmas Eve dinner!"
Everyone cheered as they greeted the man. He looked a lot like the younger Jack but even more so like Jack Frost because his hair had already grayed.
As he cut off the 7 point antlers and handed them to Jack.
"Here son hold these but be careful! You don't want to hurt someone," the man said more worried about others than Jack he tended to keep himself and his sister safe.
Jack went to join the others only to catch them in a conversation about Christmas and Santa.
"I hope Santa brings us those skates Jack," Pippa said as she saw him join.
"I don't know… have you been good this year little girl?" Jack asked his sister teasingly.
"Of course I have it's YOU I'm worried about. Oh no, I have been too busy looking after you, clumsy," Jack said tickling her gently with the antlers, "to be naughty."
"Yeah right!" Pippa laughed with North.
"You know what I want to see this year?" one of the village boys asked.
"What is that Tommy?" Pippa asked.
"Santa's sleigh and his reindeer!" he yelled excitedly.
"Ohhhh, me too," said Pippa. Soon all of them were chattering excitedly about the red sleigh.
"Everyone loves the sleigh." All the guardians said with a laugh.
"Hey look at me!" they heard Jack yell, "Guess what I am!" he said with the antlers positioned on his head as he stomped around.
"Silly?" Pippa asked.
"A deer?" asked another.
"A REINDEER!" yelled Tommy.
They all laughed and the memory faded.
