A brunette little girl happily skipped around Jack, singing a familiar lullaby.

"Jacksoooon, you promised!" She whined after the song ended.

"Yeah, yeah kiddo, I know"

"So are we going?"

"Yeah!"

With that the little girl happily leapt into her brother's arms. "You are the best!"

"I know"

Images of the little girl playing in the snow and building snowmen passed by like an old movie, fuzzy and glitchy, but nostalgic. "Jack!" she called, but slowly it began to morph into someone else's voice.

"Jack!"

"JACK!"

Someone was frantically shaking his shoulders, he squinted, the light was bright and he had to take a moment to get used to it before he could make out their face.

"Tooth?"

"OH JACK!" She cried and hugged him tightly.

He looked around at his surroundings and the first thing he saw was a big leather boot impatiently tapping next to him and little elves frantically running around with workloads.

Jack sat up and rubbed his throbbing head. "Why am I here? Whats going on?"

"Zats vat ve vant to know." He replied pointing at the frozen statue of bunny. "Vas this your vork?"

Ohhhhh, right, Bunny... "Haha... Yes, it was just a prank. I can unfreeze him"

With a touch, the giant furry rabbit unfroze, and he finished his angry rant, then stopped dead in his tracks as he heard the busy little elves running in-between his long legs with boxes.

"Wha-How-" the confused glances at Santa, Jack, and Tooth made Jack snort.

"You should see your face right now!"

Jack laughed, smacking his knee, though everyone else was blinking at Bunny, who crossed his arms and frowned. "How'd you do that?"

"A magician never reveals his secrets"

Santa sighed, dismissing himself to back to work, and Tooth let out a relieved sigh.

"I was so worried.."

Hugging Jack tightly, Tooth was on the verge of tears.

"Why? What's going on?" Bunny demanded absolutely baffled, last thing he remembered was being in the snow with Jack, who seemed to keep vanishing, then all of a sudden, they were in Santa's workshop.

"Its okay tooth, I'd never betray you guys.. Unless of course.." Jack sair stroking his chin with an arched brow and a little smirk.

Tooth gasped, looking up at Jack with a hurt expression.

"Kidding, kidding. You know me, I would never do that."

"Honestly, Tooth you are too good for this loser."

"Be quiet Kangaroo boy"

"FOR THE LAST TIME I AM A RABBIT."

Tooth sniffled and smiled happily as they threw a barrage of insults at each other. Those two always acted like an old married couple when they were in the same room.

Out of the corner of her eye, she could have sworn she saw a shadow swiftly move on the wall. "Jack..."

"Yesh?" He replied on top of Bunny, while the two of them were childishly pulling at each other's cheeks.

Tooth looked again, then shook her head. "No, its nothing."

Pitch's face soured with disgust as Jack stood up and kissed Tooth on the lips, something burned inside his chest as he held her, and smiled down at her, perhaps it was jealousy?

Well, that was nothing new. He was always jealous of the guardians.

But this feeling was alot stronger, he wanted to rip them apart, tear her wings off with his sythe, and leave her at the mercy of his meres. If he couldn't have Jack.. Nobody would, even if he had to lock Jack up, or even kill him with his own bare hands.

He had never felt such a bloodthirst, he liked mental torture, not physical really. But he was no match for any of them and would be beaten easily, so before he would loose control and actually act out on his fantisies, his body dissolved into a black mist, this time he made sure not to be seen again.

"We found you in the doorway unconscious, what happened to you Jack?" Tooth asked after Bunny exited, apparently bored of their lovey-dovey act.

The memories of what happened before he lost conciousness began to enter the white-haired male's mind, though it felt like it was a dream..

Unable to answer, Jack simply smiled, flashing his dazzling white smile. "How is Baby Tooth?"

"Oh- OH- I LEFT HER IN CHARGE!" Tooth shrieked trying to look away from Jack's beautiful teeth. "Oh and she is now Little Tooth! She has grown quite alot and refuses to be called a baby, haha isn't that adorable?

"I-I - have to- go now- visit- me- sometime!" She said in between pecks on his lips, with her bright pink cheeks darkening with every kiss.

After she left, his smile faded, turning to a sad expression. Still, he felt nothing when he kissed, or when he hugged her, but the worst part was how he led her on. He just didn't have the heart to break hers...

Little did anyone know... Santa was going missing, mere days before Christmas.

(The next chapter maybe a bit dark and scary ;A; But thanks for the reviews they mean alot to me ;v;)
