Le gasp!
What am I doing, updating on my birthday, what has the world come to?!
Anyways, the next chapter would be rather shocking, since you will learn Rosalie's past, *Cackles loudly*
I am so evil.
I present to you, chapter 6!
"...No! No! No such thing as too late! Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Idea! HAHH!" North shouted, looking gleeful. Everyone stared at him, as if he gone nuts.
"We will collect the teeth!" he announced.
"What?" Everyone was shocked. Especially Tooth.
"We get teeth! Children keep believing in you!"
"We're talking seven continents! Millions of kids!" Toothstarted flying in circles, having no idea where this was going.
"Give me break! You know how many toys I deliver in one night?"
"And eggs I hide in one day?" Bunny added, pointing to himself.
North turned to the two teenagers.
"And if you guys help us, we will get you your memories."
Jack looked to Tooth, who gavehim a reassuring smile. Rosalie looked to Sandy, and he gave her a enthusiastic thumbs up, while Bunny groaned. Probably already imagining all the trouble he was getting himself into.
"We're in," they both said in unison.
North suddenly appeared up out of a chimney, dashing along the rooftops along the Shanghai night skyline.
"Hop to it, rabbit, Team Season is five teeth ahead!" Jack exclaimed as he zipped around gathering teeth while Rosalie leftcoins under the pillows.
"Hey, I never agreed to that team name!" she shouted.
The two seasonal spirits had teamed up for the teeth collecting that night, and although they would blush and be shy around each other, none of the guardians seemed to notice.
"Yeah right. Look, I'd tell you to stay outta my way, but really what's the point - because you and the sheila won't be able to keep up anyway" taunted Bunny.
"Is that a challenge, cottontail?"
"Oh, you don't wanna race a rabbit, mate."
Before anyone could reply, North suddenly popped out of a chimney, startling all of them.
"A race? Is it a race?"
North jumped into one of the brick chimneys, then shooted out of another a few houses over.
"This is going to be... EPIC!" he shoutedexcitedly while jumping out in a star formation on the word 'epic'.
"Four bicuspids over there! An incisor two blocks east! Is that a molar? They're EVERYWHERE!" Tooth, overwhelmed, jetted off without paying attention and suddenly smacked into a billboard.
"Ow!"
Rosalie flew up to the billboard to check on her.
"Are you alright?" she asked.
"Fine... sorry, it's been a really long time since I've been out in the field," she apologized sheepishly.
"How long is a long time?" Rosalie asked slyly.
"Ah, four hundred forty years... give or take."
Before Rosalie could reply, Tooth jerked to attention and flew off to a yellow two-story house.
Rosalie and Jack flew side by side and arrived outside an open window. His smile suddenly disappeared when he sawa rabbit hole open up in the bedroom floor and Bunny hop out, whileRose just looked amused at his expression and did nothing to help Jack nor Bunny.
Bunny, now holding the tooth in his paw, turned to Jack and laughed. Jack, not amused, zapped Bunny with a burst of frost from his ever-present staff.
"Aaahhh!"
A few hours later...
Jack and Rosalie, North, Sandy, and Bunny stoodproudly on a rooftop of one of the apartments, while Tooth stood in front of them . Eachone of them revealing their own bag filled with teeth to Tooth.
North came in first, then Team Season, Bunny, and last but not least, Sandy.
(Sandy could have got more, but he toohad his job to do too.)
"Wow! You guys collect teeth and leave gifts as fast as my fairies," Tooth said joyfully.
Their eyes widened except Team Season, for they were too busy laughing and gloating at the other guardians.
"You guys have been leaving gifts, right?"
While the guardians went off to put gifts under pillows, Tooth thanked them and gave both of them a motherly smile. She flew off to help with the gifts, leaving Team Season alone until they were finished. Jack flew off saying he had to give a snowstorm to Greenland, leaving Rosalie alone for the time being.
With nothing to do, she flew up to a apartment that was at least 50 stories high and sat on the edge. Probably not the best idea, but she liked to sit up in high places and look down below. Her thoughts wandered back to North's question. What was her center? Well, to begin with, all she did was bring Autumn and give kids a boost of bravery when they need it. Her center couldn't be on Autumn because it was a season... so it had to be bravery! Rosalie couldn't believe it took her so long to figure out what was her center.
She shouted out to the night just because she could, "My center is bravery!"
Clapping was heard behind her; someone had managed to sneak up on her while she was lost in her thoughts. She jumped to her feet in surprise, "Well done, I guess you don't want to be on my side then? I guess I'll just have to convince Jack Frost. He is still a neutral party." Pitch came to sight and before she knew it, she was surrounded by Fearlings.
"You leave him alone!" Rosalie took out her sword, preparing to fight.
"Oh, does someone here have a crush on Jack Frost?" Pitch was on his favourite steed and was stroking it while he talked.
"Well, I guess I just have to use that to my advantage; join me and I'll leave him alone, or else..." Pitch laughed.
"Never! You hurt him and you get yourself a painful death," she growled.
Pitch had a fake hurt look on his face that quickly turned to a laugh.
He tossed a golden object at her and she caught it; a tooth box. The rectangular box had diamond like shapes on top of it and a picture of a girl with black hair and sea green eyes and a face that looked like Rosalie's on one of the ends. She gasped out loud; it wasn't possible, was it? Did she had a life before all this?
"Go on, open it; after you finish viewing your human memories, I'll offer you one last chance to take my side. If not, who knows what might happen?"
She hesitated on whether or not this was just some trick, but what was the worst that could happen? Rosalie pressed her fingers the diamond shape in the middle and she was plunged into her memories.
